Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ankit Fadia
The question here is not whether most of the other hackers in the world call him a script kiddie or something worse, but whether he passes . He is the most notable "hacker" in India and is accepted by the media as such. A search for "ankit fadia" gives 30000+ ghits. The article cites BBC which says the same thing. His first book "The Unofficial Guide to Ethical Hacking" was a best-seller. A look at the history of the article sill show that this user has a strong bias against Ankit Fadia http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ankit_Fadia&diff=70419979&oldid=70419381, (assuming that all the IPs belong to the same person). The http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ankit_Fadia&oldid=52915886 first version of the article was written by a fan, but I managed to do a major cleanup of the article to what it was. This particular user has also cleaned-up a bit more removing some more unsourced facts http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ankit_Fadia&diff=69042650&oldid=68427166. But lately he has started removing the citations too http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ankit_Fadia&diff=70561051&oldid=70420143
