Fails notability as defined at WP:AUTHOR and WP:ACADEMIC. Editor's assertion of subject's notability is based on a single article rather than a body of work. Chuckiesdad/Talk/Contribs 23:38, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete not nearly notable at this point--the academic notability is not enough--2 published papers ( one in Amer J Cardiology & one ion J Nutrition) are not nearly enough. The human interest involved from his youth is not significant notability DGG ( talk ) 00:22, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Although it is unusual for a person to have had a paper published in a medical journal at age 14, he did so with the assistance of his father, cardiologist Jawahar Mehta. While WP:BLP1E is an essay rather than a policy, and the essay is generally misused in attempts to delete articles about very well-known people, I think it's relevant here.

Delete - no evidence of sufficient notability, Twri (talk) 17:57, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete - I'm not sure that 17 Google scholar hits is enough to pass WP:PROF. Bearian (talk) 19:16, 23 September 2009 (UTC) P.S. Zero Google news hits. Bearian (talk) 19:18, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete; not only does the user fail WP:ACADEMIC and WP:AUTHOR, WP:BLP1E is also a concern. Only the journal article is anywhere near notable, and it isn't important enough to justify an article for him. Ironholds (talk) 05:58, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not notable for his published paper. Law_{type! snype?} 06:24, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - not nearly notable enough. The infobox makes that particularly obvious - Alison ^❤ 05:40, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
