[edit] Vasant Honavar

Seems self-promotional. Lots of academic credentials but nothing that would support notability Daniel Case 03:50, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, per nom Tom Harrison (talk) 03:58, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep of minor notability. Needs cleanup, expand and get rid of redlined categories.--MONGO 04:43, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as artificial intelligence expert, professor and author. I would also ask the nom to please allow editors more than 13 minutes before tagging for AfD. -- JJay 05:07, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
    • WITHDRAWN. OK, looks better now. But, when that original article looked like it took more than 13 minutes to create in the first place, I would ask those who submit articles to not just dump website bios on the screen and start working from there. Or put in some sort of edit summary notice that it's a work in progress and you will establish notability later on. Daniel Case 05:37, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Ideally, people should do what you are saying, but often they are first-time editors who don't have a clue about how things work here or the supposed notability requirements. You might want to try starting a dialogue when you see rapid editing going on rather than immediately tagging for AfD. The general standard, I've been told, is to wait at least 30 minutes from article creation before AfD. In any case, thanks for withdrawing the nom. -- JJay 05:53, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
