Claim of significance may be shown (via the one article referenced), but the other reference is a Wordpress - this persons notability has not been shown, this article should be deleted. Garchy (talk) 21:17, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, at least for now. The article has been repeatedly slammed with tags, beginning only seconds after its creator began writing it. It's a reasonable, good-faith effort and there is no reason not to allow its creator a reasonable opportunity to work on it. When, as here, an author's work is covered in a major national newspaper, there's a strong case for inferring notability, and WP:BEFORE calls for an attempt to assess the subject's actual notability, rather than deferring to the overhasty tag-bombing of the first patroller to come across the page and drive off the article creator.

• Note that India media require specialized searches, i.e. bing and google don't do a good job with Indian news coverage. I did find RS coverage of his 2004 book already being recommended in U.S yoga advice articles.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:10, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
