Sir Ram
Blatant self promotion; no reliable sources (only links to websites owned by this individual). Wikipedia article on him was speedied. Note: earlier "prod" on this Wikiquote entry was rebuked by creator. — Lupo 13:38, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete, per nom. ~ UDScott 15:37, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination, which echoes my original prod. Perhaps I should have speedy-deleted it instead. (Lupo, "contested" would be a better description of Wikitool's action and comment than "rebuked") ~ Ningauble 18:35, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Quotes of notability. (Lupo, "contested" would not be a better description of Wikitool's action and comment than "rebuked" because there no sign of Blatant self promotion and links to reference websites don't owned by this individual). However,Wikipedia article on him was speedied due to any creator user poor work on information.Wikitool  T 09:05, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Very well then, I stand rebuked. I defend myself thus:
 * Since you claim at Wikimedia Commons that you own the copyright for the main page of Sir Ram's blog, then either (a) you are Sir Ram himself or his agent and this is a clear case of self promotion, or (b) if you do not own the copyright this is a simple case of theft by fraud.
 * In my original prod (view here) I did not refer to websites owned by this individual, and it is a misrepresentation to suggest that I did. Lupo's nomination would be more accurate to say they are hosting sites containing content posted by or purporting to be posted by this individual. In terms of whether or not this represents independent notice, it makes no difference.
 * The term Notability as used here refers to significant notice by reliable sources that are independent of the source. As stated in the above linked prod, I searched Google and found no evidence of such notice. None.
 * Wikiquote is for famous quotes from famous persons or famous works. I rebuke you thus: Nobody of note reads your blog. ~ Ningauble 13:01, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I am a new user at wiki but try to do this article when see the person Sir Ram at The web and find some info from Blog and sites belongs to him. sorry to say if it making embarrassing. however, From me to say, I am neither Sir Ram nor his agent but to do this article made some mistakes. well, as far as I know Sir Ram is a famous poet in India and his quotes are much popular too. and yes, I would like to edit my work as u told the blog image work from me because I don't have rights for it. ~ Wikitool 8:24, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
