Procedural listing for AfD in place of a second prod by User:The Kinslayer, who says "Non-verifiable (WP:V)". I deprodded it in Oct 2006 when I found The Hindu mentioning his name in a list of "legendary figures" [1], and a CD of his called "Legends". On this occasion, I'll say I'm neutral.

Keep. He was a notable Carnatic music singer. The article needs to be cleanedup and wikified though. Parthi talk/contribs 19:12, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep, mainly on the basis of strong circumstantial evidence about his notability. My knowledge of Carnatic music is minimal and I am not familiar with him. But articles online repeatedly mention his name in the same breath as some of the giants in the field ([2], [3], [4]). "No-ones touched this article in months" does not bother me in this case because this is not exactly an orphaned article and there are many active editors in Carnatic music.

- Keep, He was most definitely one of the greatest vocalists in Carnatic Music. So there is no doubt about notability. I'll try developing this article. Please dont delete. Kris (talk) 19:07, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. The low quality of the article should not reflect badly on the musician. This article has existed for three months and is still very weak. It has five tags on it to describe its many problems. Evidently there is no one who has the time or the expertise to improve it at the moment. Suggest that it be deleted, and re-created later if someone can get around to creating a reasonable article. EdJohnston 20:18, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. A known artist for those know this kind of music, but hopefully srkris or someone else can cleanup and make this article better. [Molo5]
