Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pav Akhtar
Please assume good faith; whether this article fails or passes , it does so very close to the borderline, and as such there are plenty of people, first-time contributors or not, who find Akhtar notable enough for an article, without him having to write his own autobiography. Regarding notability, he has held a notable and conspicuous public office (President of Cambridge University Students Union), and been a councillor. While these are not alone enough to pass , the secondary coverage and furore created by the Black Students' affair, and Akhtar's activities and such since, mean that he is a well-known figure covered in several independent sources. That said, if there is consensus to delete, I'm in favour of that too (as I said, its a borderline case
