Netar Mallick[edit]

If he has a knighthood, that should make him notable. I get less than 200 ghits, but some of the sources look like they could be reliable. h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 12:51, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. Regarding notability: a quick Googling, a look at this Laudatio, and his knighthood (which is not an easy honour to get, recent British political scandals notwithstanding) all suggest that he meets the notability criteria. He certainly seems to meet the requirements of WP:PROF as a recognized leader in his field -- see the laudation above for details. However, can we please have more on his achievements in the article itself?" -- The Anome (talk) 14:29, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: agree he appears to be a "significant expert in his [...] area" as per WP:PROF and my recent addition to the article.--JD554 (talk) 15:24, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
