Asheem Singh

This article has been tagged as being of doubtful notability since 13 April 2008 - two weeks short of six months. Since then nobody has adduced any evidence that the article is about a notable subject. A search of the internet suggests that Asheem Singh is a think-tank employee who has enjoyed some success in creative writing. That is very laudable, but it does not make him notable. I mentioned on the talk page soon after the article was created that I find it interesting that the article was created and edited by a user called User:Ashthecash, whose sole contributions to Wikipedia are to Asheem Singh (nine times), POV (Point of View) (a work by Asheem Singh), American Dream (cross-referencing a subsequently deleted article about a piece of writing by Asheem Singh), University of East Anglia (for the purpose of adding Asheem Singh as an alumnus), List of University of Oxford people (for the purpose of adding Asheem Singh to the list), and two minor edits to Gordon Brown. I suspect that Ash [my italics] thecash is none other than Asheem Singh. The article would therefore be self-promotion. Oxonian2006 (talk) 21:17, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails notability. The web seems to be dotted with self publicizing with no reviews of works by critics or other industry personnel. This entry in Wikipedia seems just one more attempt at self publicizing in a long string.--«JavierMC»|Talk 01:08, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Its not enough to be broadcast-- critical attention is needed. and student awards fo the sort listed do not bring notability afterwards. I see nothing obvious in G. DGG (talk) 01:39, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
