Deletion of Pradip Kumar Singh

Comment: Yes, Singh has published a few books and some papers, as DGG notes. However, as  says, it is not enough to publish, all academics publish. What is needed is evidence that these publications have been noted, which we usually assess by looking at how often an academic's publications have been cited. Usually, this is very difficult to assess for someone with a common name (like "Singh"). In this case, too, there seem to be multiple "PK Singh" (one of them a microbiologist), but all of them have been cited so little, that even if we just throw all on one heap and count everything, it just is not enough, not even in a low-citation density field like anthropology. If one clicks the Google Scholar link above (under "find sources"), the highest-cited article has 11 hits (and that is one by the microbiologist). The Web of Science (which has a lower coverage in the humanities and social sciences) finds 9 articles, cited a total of 13 times for an h-index of 1 (here, I searched for "PK Singh"). If opne searches for "PK Singh" in GS, one finds some very highly-cited papers, but all by other persons (I went through several pages, down to articles cited about 30 times, none of them by the PK Singh under discussion here). In short, I see no evidence of this person having made a measurable impact on his field, as required by #1, nor do I see evidence of him passing any of the other criteria
