Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vasant Krishna Sharma
Wikipedia is not a genealogy website. The information about his antecedents with the  terminolgy, which I have removed, is superfluous in this case, as notability cannot be inherited per Wikipedia. This man has to be judged on his own merits. Writing some articles for the same newspaper does not, in any way, make him a ''prolific writer''. An established or ''notable'' academic or professor should and would have produced quite a few acknowledged scholarly works by the age of 65 or the time of retirement. I see no evidence of this, backed by reliable third party sources. The primary sources cited in the article can be discounted, as he is doing what most people in his position do at colleges or universities  viz. getting on with his job. Being an office-holder at some  associations or societies is par for the course in such jobs, depending on one's interests and hobbies. This, too,  does not make him notable. Seems to fail
