Delete This page is a duplicate of Shouryya Ray, which I believe is the correct spelling of his name. Additionally it contains unverified information from a number of newspapers, which have been accused of hyping the story. There is no real evidence that this person has actually solved the mathematical problem; on the contrary photographs of an equation and a poster suggest that he has rederived an already known constant of motion and has obtained a series solution for the problem, which does not qualify as an "analytic solution" in closed form. Thus I'd suggest that this article is not newsworthy and should be deleted. CodeTheorist (talk) 22:03, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy redirect to the correct spelling: Shouryya Ray. If I'd seen this page before this AfD proposal was here, I'd have just immediately redirected it. Michael Hardy (talk) 18:33, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shouryya Ray. -- 202.124.72.173 (talk) 05:43, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't make sense to write "Delete per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shouryya Ray" when that discussion has not been closed with a decision to delete. The discussion is still in progress. Michael Hardy (talk) 16:22, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've redirected this to the correct spelling. It's not proper to have an AfD discussion based on notability of this person, or similar arguments, that is separate from another AfD discussion of the same thing, which is now in progress. This discussion should be taken to the discussion page for the AfD nomination of the article titled Shouryya Ray. Michael Hardy (talk) 16:12, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
