Cautious Delete - A cursory search using Wikipedia's tools (see above) leads to zero scholarly mentions outside of single-name mentions in two books with no further information on him (the other books are based on Wikipedia articles). The article has been asking for any reliable cite since 2013 and received none. Google tells me he appears to be affiliated with a branch of the Dorje Shugden movement, but literally nothing else. If we cannot verify any information about this individual outside of propaganda works, that's very problematic. He's only mentioned as a single name in The Dalai Lama and the King Demon, which is startling if he is in fact Wiki-notable. Ogress _smash! 19:51, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Appears to be a circular reference - mirrors of wiki verifying notability. Montanabw ^(talk) 02:08, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
