Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/V. Balakrishnan (physicist)
I think you need to be careful before rushing headlong into creating thousands of stubs based only on the subject's membership of a particular body. Per  as regards memberships of such associations: "It is possible for an academic to be notable according to this standard, and yet not be an appropriate topic for coverage in Wikipedia because of a lack of reliable, independent sources on the subject." The |general notability guideline requires that any article topic must have received |significant coverage in |reliable sources that are |independent of the subject. In other words, a single reference showing membership of the IAS or similar is not sufficient for an article to be retained
