Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan is a war hero. The point of this article is not to record that he died, but to record the way he died. He died protecting the people of his country, and that deserves to be remembered. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.166.145.19 ( talk) 17:25, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
A lot of coverage is expected for the Major Sandeep Unnikirshnan in the media. The article as it stands is little more than a news headline. It should be expanded in lines of a Biography of a notable person. The Afd discussion should be settled. This person is not a victim of the terror strike in Mumbai but an officer who laid his life in lines of duty. Indoresearch ( talk) 14:29, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
KEEP and Expand: Major Unnikrishnan should be added to other Casulaties of Indian Soldiers who died in combat. He is going to get a major medal from Indian government.
It is will shame to remove him. We need to keep a list of brave soldiers who have laid their life saving others and commoners. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.124.17.233 ( talk) 20:55, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
Compare WP:BIO1E to the article of Todd Beamer, the American who said "Let's roll!" On UA Flight 93. I can't find any proposal for deletion based on his fame related to one single event, even if there were, his article remains. If an article of Todd Beamerqualifies, why not Major Sandeep Unnikirshnan? Especially when one might draw an early loose analogy between them and the respective terrorist attacks they were involved in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pengopen ( talk • contribs) 12:48, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
Keep and Expand: A simple google search shows over 50,000 hits for the name of Major Unnikrishnan, which I believe is a sufficient proof of notability. In addition, hundreds of millions of people know his name by now (specially, anyone who has been watching/reading any news coverage regarding mumbai). This article does not even come close to be deleted. 74.12.141.68 ( talk)
Keep: The references given show that he easily meets the criteria for notability. Armourhistorian ( talk) 05:32, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
Keep: WP:BIO1E guidelines apply only if the event in question is not notable. This is clearly not the case with the Mumbai terror attacks. Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan remains in the consciousness of the Indian and World media even days after the incident. Numerous media reports have been written about him. His untimely demise has set off a political tremor in the state of his origin that can lead to the resignation of a Chief minister. He is a person whom millions of people want to know more about. Isn't that what encyclopedias are all about - providing accurate information on people and issues that are of interest to the general population? Let's not waste time debating whether or not this article should be deleted and focus instead on the authenticity of the information contained herein. InkReadible ( talk) 16:40, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
We have just had a lengthy discussion on previous Afd.
There were 4 Delete votes and 28 Keep votes. The argument of notability was made over and over again. But never the less there were many references of notability cited. There are many inline comments added here too. Why an Afd so soon? While I do not agree with the result of discussion as "No consensus". Why do we want to go through the same process of arguments again and take up peoples time? Has this become a topic of ego for people to bring AFDs again and again. If you still want to bring AFD then come after a few months or an year. Let people gather sources and expand the article till then. Indoresearch ( talk) 16:50, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
It is a big WP:UNDUE, an event after the subject's death, not directly related to the subject, but can be termed as an encounter between his father and the CM. Removing it. -- Redtigerxyz Talk 05:10, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
I am removing the tags placed by User:Dbachmann as this has been repeated twice earlier. Thanks. Shovon ( talk) 10:40, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
