The subject is known only for the calendar Kalnirnay, and nothing else. If the article doesnt improve in the seven day period, it should be deleted. —usernamekiran(talk) 12:45, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The past few Afds have strangely seen me !voting Keep continuously. Anyway, not only is the subject known for the iconic Kalnirnay (and for taking it digital), the subject is also known for the the book he has written[1] and the horn meter he innovated (oh god I need one!). I would suggest developing the article than deleting it. Covered by NYT, TIME magazine, Milliyet, Kosmo, and other international news media apart from national media within India and the likes.

@Lourdes: Yes, i agree with you regarding him being well known for the Kalnirnay. But after coming across his article which was created by his employee, and had nothing except the infobox; I searched for him on internet. I couldnt find anything about him in general search, or in news except for his connection with Kalnirnay.
I am not sure how to create an article out of these sources. Would you please help me with that? (That is the actual reason I skim through AfD, to find out articles which can be saved.) Ironically, when I found an article (this one) which can be improved, i dont know how to do it. lol —usernamekiran(talk) 17:47, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I can surely assist Kiran. If you withdraw this nomination, I'll work on the article and at least have an acceptable stub ready. Thanks. Lourdes 01:18, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot Lourdes. You can send me rough content as well, I can easily make it in encyclopaedic content.

I withdraw my nomination After taking a look at new found sources, it is evident that the suject is notable to have an article on encyclopaedia. So I withdraw my nomination for deletion. Lourdes, and I will try to make it a stub, or "start class" encyclopaedia article. Thank you all for your consideration. —usernamekiran(talk) 06:29, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
