I'm not sure whether this is a hoax or just a GNG fail. An old version of the article does have some very poor sourcing but I am struggling to spot anything reliable, which isn't helped by the name that is used. A Cordelia Boaz is a doctor in Nagercoil but she doesn't seem to be this person.

From the hoax angle, I find it unlikely that an Indian resident is a member of the Pakistani ISI (which is a secret service of sorts) and also a member of the NAAM. Perhaps I am stereotyping regarding those, in which case my apologies, or perhaps they have alternate meanings. Sitush (talk) 19:08, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. My guess would be alternate meanings. There are many different entities abbreviated as ISI. But if the creator of this article doesn't bother to indicate which one they meant, we're not going to find this to be a particularly useful biography. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:21, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: On a hoax-scale of 10, I would rate it no less than 9. A social activist from Tamil Nadu and a member of Pakistani intelligence services is very unlikely to be one individual. Anup [Talk] 04:08, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
