• KEEP - The biographical article is for an author who has five published books under his belt. A name search on google provides enough information about the author and his works. His books are available for purchase at all leading retail sites. I am the creator of the article.SwisterTwister — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.112.82.2 (talk) 05:46, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong delete no indication that books are notable, evident through the absense of book articles. Having written books doesn't guarantee a WP bio. Fails

• Delete - Can't see any obvious evidence of notability. NickCT (talk) 15:11, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• STRONG KEEP - An author is not necessarily famous only if his works are being read in the United States or Europe. The article talks about an extremely well known Indian author and citations of his work are available in leading Indian Dailies on the internet - The Times of India, Hindustan Times, DNA etc. All it needs in the right intent and will to look.
