Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Barack Obama's visit to India
this is not just another routine visit. a classic misapplication of  which states ''routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia''  This visit is an event of enduring significance with US reversing its long standing policy & lending support to India's bid for NSG, MTCR etc for 1st time, several large Indian firms being taken off "entities list" by US thereby paving trade between US and these companies.   it clearly meets  with multiple independent RS from across the world covering it so I will not spend more time discussing that.  as far as meeting  is concerned the  is already evident and I would point to Barack Obama's visit to India#Impact.  creating 50,000 jobs in the middle of a recession and concluding $10 billion in business deals is no small feat IMO (even for POTUS).  Approx 80 countries have GDP lower than that.  Wall street journal even has an editorial on this event http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304155604575581721120234484.html.  what percentage of events covered by WP are considered notable enough for an opinion piece by WSJ ??  states and I quote ''Articles about breaking news events —particularly biographies of participants— are often rapidly nominated for deletion. As there is no deadline, it is recommended to delay the nomination for a few days to avoid the deletion debate dealing with a moving target and to allow time for a clearer picture of the notability of the event to emerge, which may make a deletion nomination unnecessary.''  It seems to me that the deletionists want a separate (much higher) threshold for notability for Obama's actions and another threshold for the average notable person.  I agree not everything obama does is notable but this visit is one of the notable things he has done recently
