Delete. Notability not established. Appears to be fluff piece, self-advertizing.Yachtsman1 (talk) 22:37, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Non-notable and blatant self advertising. Speedy could have been better. Docku:“what up?” 23:27, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete~~Strong Keep~~ – As an member elected to a sub-national (ie state) assembly, he qualifies under the notability criteria. See WP:POLITICIAN. Adequate sources are available, its just a question of searching properly. The Election Commission of India lists his name, so notability is unchallenged. The article needs a cleanup, but cleanup is not grounds for deletion. =Nichalp «Talk»= 05:56, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Can you figure out which constituency he represents? My best guess is that, if he had, whosoever wrote this article would have listed that info, sourced or unsourced. The link that you provided talks about "SHAILENDRA SINGH RAWAT", who seems to be a different man from this one. --GDibyendu (talk) 14:18, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you're right the politician is someone else. That rediff.com reference was entirely misleading. This spreadsheet confirms an age difference. =Nichalp «Talk»= 15:28, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -- no offense, but I am afraid this nomination is an example of systemic bias. The guy is not from the Anglosphere, so he doesn't count? Geo Swan (talk) 16:27, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Offence taken. Read Assume good faith. WWGB (talk) 21:25, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- There seem to be over half a dozen individuals named Shailendra Singh who may merit coverage here. Geo Swan (talk) 16:27, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

some of them are listed in Shailendra Singh (disambiguation). Most notable person of this name is the Singer/Musician from Bollywood. --GDibyendu (talk) 05:35, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
