Deletion of Vageshwari Deswal

Comment: I think there's a case here for the subject as a public intellectual per  C7.  It's very much verging on , but the consistent record of blogging for the India Times organization (note that the Economic Times and Times of India appear to be co-owned, and certainly have a common blog platform) is something.  The subject also appears to be frequently and somewhat substantially quoted on matters surrounding her legal expertise in India.  The combination brings me to a (very) weak keep.  The case would be more solid if there were more evidence of impact for the blog; I do note that it seems harder to find such evidence for a blog for the Economic/Times/ of India than in a comparable US-based publication.  I agree with concerns of {{u| Aseleste}} about ing, but as usual,

Comment: The article has been updated with some very low-quality references, Amazon and annoucement/event pages. What is the purpose of that? Is that reference stacking?  There is no standalone secondary refs that point to her being notable. Her Google Scholar entry is super low at https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=hNT1vTcAAAAJ&hl=en even for a lawyer. According to the university profile: http://du.ac.in/du/uploads/Faculty%20Profiles/Law/Vageshwar_Deswal_law.pdf she is not a full professor, she is an Assistant professor. According to Academic ranks in India, it is the lowest rank on that scale. If the lassie got her PHD in 2007, she is likely to be at the very beginning of her career. For the two book entries, I can't locate any reviews. The other coverage for work outside academica, is mostly blogs, it is not under editorial control, with the occcasional real story, which is . However, I don't see any secondary reporting that tells me she is notable. Essentially it an assitant professor who been asked to keep a blog and write a couple of stories. I think it too-low a bar for for me

Comment: per . This has been improved significantly and, as a lawyer, she appears to pass my own standards and . As an academic, she would probably not pass because she's just an ''assistant'' professor

Comment: I have continued to remove excess citations from the article, and based on what remains: ''The Times of India'' and ''The Economic Times'' are both major conventional news outlets in India that frequently publish Deswal's legal commentary, and describe her as an expert in https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/blogs/author/vageshwari-deswal/ her profile, i.e. "an academician, feminist and activist teaching at Faculty of Law, University of Delhi." The "frequency" is documented by https://muckrack.com/journalists MuckRack, which claims to automatically update online portfolios, so it offers at least an estimate of Deswal's publication rate.  states that it is a guideline, not a rule, and "Criterion 7 may be satisfied, ''for example'', if the person is frequently quoted in conventional media as an academic expert in a particular area." (emphasis added, because in this instance, Deswal is frequently published in conventional media as an academic expert in a particular area, and based on the subject matter and her profile, it appears to be an expert in women's rights issues). In addition, Deswal is quoted as an expert in ''The Quint'', which appears to be a respected news outlet in India, and ''ABC News (Australia)'', which appears to be a public news outlet with editorial independence in Australia. Per , for ''The Times of India'', there is currently "a reliability between no consensus and generally unreliable. It tends to have a bias in favor of the Indian government," yet Deswal often appears as an expert calling for changes to the status quo. However, a review of some of Deswal's research suggests that she does work in conjunction with the government sometimes, including with regard to investigating acid violence attacks on women, as well as issues related to farmers and prison reform
