Notability of the subject not established: see article talk page and discussion over declined Speedy nomination. Springnuts (talk) 12:29, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I can see how some of the sources might be problematic, but come on! A presidential award makes someone notable. - Mgm|^(talk) 13:14, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Keep: He won a few awards. Schuym1 (talk) 14:51, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep As noted by MacGyver, WP:BIO notes that someone who "has received a notable award or honor, or has been often nominated for them" is likely notable. Together with all the other sources, this is surely enough to guarantee notability. Nyttend (talk) 15:18, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong Keep: He is notable as per the sources cited. Simon Cheakkanal (talk) 15:23, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Keep: As I had mentioned in Talk:Alexander_Jacob_IPS#Notability, the responsibilities that he holds now is more than sufficient to establish notability. I had removed notability tag in the article after considering those facts. I don't understand why the article is submitted here for AFD again. --Jacob.jose (talk) 17:40, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as notability has been established. However, article needs wikification and additional sourcing. I have tagged it for such. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 19:02, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
