Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vipin Kumar Tripathi
From above, it seems I didn't miss anything from my analysis, so here it is. In an academic capacity, the subject appears to have at least 100 total citations, no more than 300 at the most. So, I don't think that's quite enough for "Keep" on citations alone. Having been a professor of a top Indian institution is, frankly, a stronger indication of some notability, which is, however, unlikely to translate to lasting notability (as with most biographies on Wikipedia, to be fair). This fact also is likely the reason the media took notice of him when he ventured into political activism. As an intellectual going against the tide on contentious political issue/s, he seems to have garnered enough coverage to suggest he is quite close to reaching the  threshold if he isn't there already. The article needs to make clear that he's a professor who's ventured into activism and that's what makes him notable. And care needs to be taken not to attribute academic achievements of others sharing the combination of "V", "VK" and "Tripathi" in their names to him
