Justice Kan Singh Parihar

The article does not take a neutral stance on the subject. It is not strictly factual, but flattering and biased. Obie09 21:46, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Neutral. He's from India, there aren't any hits on him in English, but NPOV isn't a reason to delete (a reason to revise, maybe, but not delete). --ColourBurst 21:56, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Note This has been deleted before as nothing but a weblink. I thought there was an earlier AFD on it. The hagiographic phrasing sounds very familiar. Fan-1967 22:05, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment, it's a really, really bad non-neutral article, but that has little to do with deletion. Slap a NPOV tag on it, or fix it. I don't know enough about the Indian justice system to determine the level of his positions to determine notability, so no vote. Kuru 22:12, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Hoax? No sign of him at Rajasthan High Court OK - he's there as Kan Singh Dlyons493 Talk 22:23, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep He has been mentioned as 'Kan Singh' in short in the above URL pointed out. Please see again. He is very much a reputed personality who has done a great work for social upliftment in Rajasthan. He deserves a place on Misplaced Pages. There is no copyright violation as well.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by LRBurdak (talk • contribs) .
    • Justice Shri Kan Singh Ji Parihar spent his life in the service of people, in the service of justice and in the service of law, whether as a Naib Hakim, a Government Advocate, a Judge of High Court, Chairman of an enquiry commission for emergency excesses or as a Vice-chancellor of University of Jodhpur, or now, as an honest citizen devoting much of his time in reading and in the service of the downtrodden and persons in need individually or through voluntary organisations. is word-for-word from Dlyons493 Talk 04:00, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Note Anon IP 4.249.114.184 (talk · contribs) keeps removing AFD tags. Interestingly, that IP is in Colorado. Fan-1967 22:26, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Note Somebody tried that during the last AFD. Once the rewrite had been completed, the original author blanked the article. I guess if the fawning hero-worship was not there, the author didn't want an article at all. Fan-1967 04:17, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Revise A simple revising instead of deletion would do the trick. I suggested the deletion in the first place, but I was unfamiliar with Misplaced Pages policy, sorry. Revising makes more sense. Obie09 03:12, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Justice Kan Singh Parihar is not only known to the world of law having remained as an illustrious lawyer, a great Judge of the Rajasthan High Court and a able Vice Chancellor of the Jai Narain Vyas University, Jodhpur, India, but he is also known to the common men and citizens of Rajasthan, India. Please look at the attached web page . People of all walk of life have high regards for him. In my opinion there is no need to delete this article.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.249.102.211 (talk • contribs)
  • Comment It is clear that he is a notable judge. It is also clear that this article is absolutely, totally unacceptable. This is not an article. It is a hero-worshipping testimonial that has no place in an encyclopedia. Fan-1967 18:09, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. I have gone through the article twice, but couldn't find any notability. A Chief Justice may be notable for the post but not a jugde. Also, being the VC of a university isn't inherently notable. What's more, the article fails WP:NPOV (by a wide margin), WP:V (no verifiable sources given of the "claims"), and WP:NOR (that includes all the service claims). Failing all the founding policies of Misplaced Pages, I have no doubt in saying "Delete". — Ambuj Saxena (talk) 07:20, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment If the article is to be revised then we need to find credible info on this guy. The page referred to be the author of the article , as said before, won't be sufficient. I did a Google India search for the Justice and found nothing. However, he is in the Misplaced Pages entry List of people from Rajasthan and List of notable people from Jodhpur. So either he is notable, and needs an article, or the Notable people from Jodhpur entry needs to be revised. Obie09 00:15, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep I noticed this article when I was reading about Rajasthan, particularly the city of Jodhpur. It is interesting to know that he is someone notable from Jodhpur. So I think the entry of this article is worth keeping.
