Ajit Singh (race walker)

Declined prod. Fails WP:SPORTSCRIT and WP:NOLY. Disqualified from race. LibStar (talk) 09:44, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Olympics, Sport of athletics, and India. LibStar (talk) 09:44, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No plausible keep rationale was stated in the removal of the PROD, which was based on an argument that failed to gain consensus when it was discussed (i.e., that PRODs of Olympians should be arbitrarily rate-limited).

The subject of this article is very likely dead (they were born in 1936, India has an average life-expectancy of 72) but there is no known death-date nor extant obituary. The name of the subject is incredibly common (Singh is one of the world's 10 most common surnames, Ajit is a top-100 given name globally), we have at least 21 blue-linked articles for people with the same name which hinders searching. For this reason also redirection is not warranted: it is not plausible that people would be searching the title of this article which includes a disambiguation, and people searching for the other Ajit Singhs - including numerous sportsmen and even multiple Olympians - should not be hindered in searching for them.

As has been pointed out in the nom, the article manages to be inaccurate even when it is barely a sentence in length - it is not clear that Singh did even compete in this race since he was disqualified at some stage.

Rutherford Discovery Fellowships

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article on a modest research grant, PRODded with reason "No indication of notability. Fails WP:GNG." Article de-PRODded with reason "removed deletion tag as I disagree with this nomination: the RDFs were a well-known, primary means of science funding in New Zealand, and have now been replaced by a comparably notable programme which is linked in the article. will also add {{old prod}} to talk page. I edited the text of the page as well to highlight why the fellowship scheme is notable, and removed text that seemed redundant or simply parroting what appears on the RSNZ website." However, none of the sources given are independent of the subject. On the talk page it is suggested to merge this article with Tāwhia te Mana Research Fellowships, but that article suffers from the same sourcing deficit. PROD reason still stands, hence: delete.

Comment: I'm baffled, this is the first time I see such a "procedural vote". I apologize for having a real life independent of WP (I know, isn't that shocking that such exists?), so I didn't answer immediately. As BEFORE I did a Google search and only found mentions that were not independent (either from the website of the granting agency/academy or a note on the website of the organism employing an awardee). I did not find any independent reliable sources that discussed these grants in depth. Perhaps you can now change your "procedural !vote" into a policy-based one. --Randykitty (talk) 12:48, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I also have a COI but agree and stated similarly in my initial disagreement with Randykitty regarding deletion. The fellowships are well known in NZ and are the primary means by which early-mid-career scientists get funding, outside of MBIE or Marsden grants.

A quick google news search turns up a few non-university sources citing RDFs:

Keep per substantial referencing by DrThneed.-Gadfium (talk) 05:03, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This article has now been the victim of serious refbombing. There are too many "sources" to verify them all, but a good sample shows that none of them is an independent reliable source about the award. A mention on the website or in the house magazine of university XYZ that John Doe got this award does not contribute to notability as required by WP:GNG. If ever this article gets kept, that humongous list of recipients needs to go (WP:NOTADIRECTORY, WP:UNDUE; such lists belong on their own website, WP is not a webhost). In all, I'm far from convinced that the changes made since my nom show notability. Perhaps one of the "keep" !voters above can list 3 independent sources that meet the requirements of GNG and I'll be happy to withdraw my nom. --Randykitty (talk) 12:48, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
See my reply above with 3 sources, I found these quite quickly with a google news search. I have a COI so will leave it to others to edit but just noting that it's quite easy to find mentions of RDFs and RDF recipients in the NZ news (not just from university webpages) Kauri-kauri (talk) 22:10, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - @Randykitty I've found the following news articles from independent sources: Radio NZ - [3] / NZ Herald - [4] / Te Ao News - [5] / Otago Daily Times - [6]. Hopefully this is enough to satisfy your above request. Nil🥝^Talk 01:29, 24 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. (note: I have a COI as a recipient of this award). I certainly recognize @Randykitty's issue regarding independent sources, in particular because none of the independent sources now referenced and/or mentioned in this discussion are about the award, per se, rather than about recipients of the award. That being said, it would be pretty unusual for there to be news coverage, articles in scientific journals, etc, regarding the existence of a funding mechanism in its own right. It seems to me that the notability of this funding mechanism stems from the many scientists funded by it and the many research discoveries it has produced, though, both of which are evidenced by the sources provided. Come to think of it, another good edit to this article could be to provide some detail about some of the research discoveries it has produced, which would provide further evidence for its notability. An alternative could be to merge this article with Royal Society of New Zealand, in a similar fashion to how R01 grant redirects to National Institutes of Health. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kauri-kauri (talk • contribs) 21:07, 24 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Royal Society of New Zealand none of the sources provided are any actual significant coverage of the award itself, rather just on the research/recipients. There is already a suitable target article to discuss the subject. The current article is just a handful of sentences bar an unnecessary list. Traumnovelle (talk) 04:37, 25 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A pretty clear keep I think given the number of sources and the impact it clearly had for NZ academics. David Palmer//cloventt ^(talk) 01:31, 26 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: To me, this is still a pretty clear "delete". I agree 100% with what Traumnovelle said: "none of the sources provided are any actual significant coverage of the award itself, rather just on the research/recipients." To cite just the first source mentioned listed above ([7]): this is a 140 word note about somebody receiving this award, which is just mentioned in-passing and does not provide any support for notability. This is still a clear miss of WP:GNG. In the absence of any serious coverage, most of the above "keep" !votes are just different formulations of WP:ILIKEIT. As an WP:ATD, I could live with a "merge" as suggested by Kauri-kauri and Traumnovelle. --Randykitty (talk) 14:56, 27 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Would just suggest that if Rutherford Discovery Fellowships is merged with Royal Society of New Zealand, then probably Tāwhia te Mana Research Fellowships should also be merged with Royal Society of New Zealand, by the same logic (i.e. notability of the research and the people's salaries the fellowships pay for is met, but notability of the schemes themselves are not). [still have a COI though!] Kauri-kauri (talk) 16:45, 27 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Royal Society of New Zealand. There is no substantive coverage of the award - the sources above are acceptable for the biographies of the recipients, but not of the award itself. I could possibly see a list article of recipients, but I'm inclined to think the award does not confer notability, and the average recipient isn't independently notable - meaning a category is likely sufficient. The brief material we have on the history is merge-worthy. Vanamonde93 (talk) 18:08, 27 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Upon reviewing and analyzing the content, it is clear that the article does not meet the required standards. The individual does not exhibit clear distinction, diversity, or uniqueness in any specific field.

Participation in an economic forum or a workshop alone does not necessarily reflect uniqueness or fulfill the necessary criteria.

In terms of political involvement, merely running on a legislative election list, without achieving success or gaining notable recognition, is not sufficient to classify the individual as distinguished or as meeting the required standards. — Osama Eid ^(talk) 13:32, 28 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There are reviews of Stryker's books in Booklist, Library Journal, and ForeWord magazine (added in these edits), though I don't think those alone are enough to prove notability solely through WP:NAUTHOR. She has had frequent media appearances related to sexuality and relationship topics or her activism, including this 2012 SF Bay Guardian article in which she speaks to abuse in the BDSM community (also this Salon article on the same topic), this 2014 profile in Curve magazine covering her career, and these articles on her writing on juggalos and the Struggalo Circus social media account co-created by her in the midst of Trump-related demonstrations in 2017 [8][9][10]. Best, Bridget (talk) 16:38, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Found this book (University of Nebraska Press) contains the bulk of a chapter (pp. 143-156) analyzing her blog. I think this would be a keep mainly hinged on the available critical reception of her work, paid editing concerns notwithstanding. Bridget (talk) 11:22, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

For years, this promotional article has been used to spread false information. First of all, the person is presented as a "philanthropist," although he has never been a philanthropist. Also, the "Academic career" section is completely false, as this person has never taught at any of the listed universities.

Overall, the only two pieces of information that are actually true are the brief period as director of the Italian organization SIAE, and the current position as rector of a private university that he founded himself. In my opinion, these two pieces of information alone are not sufficient to consider someone encyclopedic.

If it is decided to keep the article, be very careful with the information it contains, because some websites copy content from Wikipedia, resulting in the amplification of false or questionable claims. Eritr (talk) 09:03, 28 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

But, this topic has the sufficient reference links.

If you actually read WP:GNG, you'd know that being quoted occasionally or featured as a talking head doesn't establish notability. What matters is significant, independent, in-depth coverage about the person, not just mentions in articles where the focus is on broader topics.

You've linked interviews and opinion pieces where the subject is asked for their take — that’s not the same as coverage about them. These are routine business mentions and PR-style interviews, not the kind of sustained, critical coverage that warrants a standalone article. Thilsebatti (talk) 04:29, 30 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ann Diamond fails to meet WP:GNG. There is only minimal independent coverage (one short Canadian Encyclopedia entry and a brief TV segment). There is no sustained, in-depth coverage in reliable secondary sources. The article relies largely on her own work, with very few third-party references, giving undue weight. Recommend deletion or redirect. 02:54, 4 August 2025 (UTC)BattlefortheMind (talk)

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2025 August 4. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 03:21, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A majority of the cited sources are third-party references. The most used source is The Canadian Encyclopedia, which the nom rejects as "only" three times the Wikipedia:One hundred words standard. The currently cited sources span two or three decades, which is obviously WP:SUSTAINED coverage. It already cites multiple independent sources.
I recommend editors read Talk:Ann Diamond#COI and NPOV tags added, where the nom and I have been talking about the difference between an independent source (e.g., CTV News, which is cited in the article) and Investigative journalism (e.g., digging into someone's life to prove that they're lying). I don't feel strongly about what's done with the article, but I think there is a case of WP:IDONTLIKEIT going on here (how dare Wikipedia "promote" or "platform" an older woman who has made some outlandish claims in recent years, by saying that she's made outlandish claims). The nom's suggestion that the article ought to be merged and redirected to MKUltra#In popular culture is particularly inappropriate. She's been published by reputable, traditional publishers, multiple times. She won a literary award. Not every (seemingly) mentally ill person should be redirected to one of the misguided things they believe. WhatamIdoing (talk) 04:26, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for deletion/Clinical Information Access Portal (2nd nomination)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The CIAP lacks notability both generally, and within the Australian healthcare context. As it currently stands, it is a profoundly underwhelming article consisting of a single sentence and a few dot-points that link to other articles. The article does not, in any way, establish the CIAP's notability. In the previous 2011 AfD (previous name WP:Articles for deletion/Clinical Information Access Program; no consensus), the only 'sources' used to support its retention were seemingly promotional posters (now inaccessible), a passing mention in a comment to another unrelated journal article, a staff announcement in the NSW Health bulletin, and a 2002 conference paper. A Google Scholar search shows that it has only been the subject of one article (a simple article that said how many times it's been accessed by NSW Health staff in 15 years - [18]), or passing mentions in the methodology sections of other sources. It has no media coverage, is not publicly accessible, and the only Google web hits are the CIAP website itself and library guides on how to access CIAP. Tim (Talk) 02:41, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Company fails WP:CORPDEPTH with a lack of significant coverage.

The sources exist, independently from the controversy.[19][20][21] Inven is a video gaming outlet, but the latter two — News1 and Pressian — are legitimate news media commonly cited here and their coverage goes beyond simple mentions, reporting about the company's prospect. They are not in the article yet, but I can add them. Emiya Mulzomdao (talk) 12:26, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:CORPTRIV. The 2nd and 3rd articles are very clearly "standard notices, brief announcements, and routine coverage". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:59, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That is not a routine coverage. It's Suwon city goverment investing on the company, which is rare and far from standard. Reports related to the controversy also satisfy audience requirement since newspapers like Yonhap News Agency, Kyunghyang Shinmun, and The Hankyoreh are some of the biggest news agencies in the nation. All of these are best compiled in the article about the company. Emiya Mulzomdao (talk) 12:42, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is a brief 1-paragraph article that says that someone invested in the company. This falls under WP:CORPTRIV as "of a capital transaction, such as raised capital", or something similar. Who did it is irrelevant. I think my point has been made though, so I won't push it further besides stating my opinion you are incorrect. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 22:01, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Suwon's investment agreement is always a focal point of the regional newspapers due to the major perks and development in the special case city economics, which are stated in the articles, so I disagree with that. Emiya Mulzomdao (talk) 12:45, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your take on the article is a fundamental misunderstanding of NCORP guidelines. The articles are regurgitations of announcements by Suwon so not "independent content" and fails ORGIND. Now, you say an investment by Suwon is rare and therefore notable - ok, perhaps that is true but all we care about is that sourcing provided in-depth independent content about the company. If it really was rare and notable, why has no other publication written an article using "independent content"? If you can find one which doesn't simply regurgitate the same content as the announcement then that is a source that would be counted towards notability. HighKing⁺⁺ 11:07, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Disagree. The sources cited are either brief event-based mentions, interviews (primary), or trade/press-release style writeups. There is no in-depth, independent, reliably sourced biographical coverage of Senthil Kumar as required by WP:GNG. The AMPAS membership, IMAX Special Achievement Award, and NIT-T Distinguished Alumni Award are indeed selective recognitions. However, WP:NBIO requires that such awards be covered in-depth by reliable independent sources, which is lacking here. At present, the subject fails both WP:GNG and WP:NBIO due to absence of sustained, independent biographical coverage in reliable secondary sources. Most sources are limited to brief announcements or primary interviews. Thilsebatti (talk) 18:50, 21 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

With multiple substantial features plus three nationally-reported, selective honours, Kumar clearly passes GNG and NBIO (§1, §3, §8). Any remaining COI polishing can be handled by normal editing; deletion is unwarranted. — Madan80 (talk) 03:05, 23 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per nom, not so ironically. You say it's a notable phrase, but you gutted the article before you nominated it, which is kind of problematic. Granted, much of that probably need to be reformatted or removed, it just seems like poor timing to "improve" an article and they try to get it deleted. Regardless, it is notable, and there are tons of uses in culture and example sources, which means it passes WP:GNG.

Template:Vallenato musicians

Template:Vallenato musicians (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

I think that "vallenato musicians" is too subjective and ill-defined to have its own navbox. As genres go, vallenato is unusually clearly delineated, but there are still edge cases for this navbox, like:

Alfredo Gutiérrez, definitely an important vallenato musician, but also known for his work in basically all other types of tropical music.
Adriana Lucía, who released one vallenato album as a teenager and then moved on to other things; she is still included in lists like "Ten heroines of vallenato music", but I think this is because the pool of well-known female vallenato artists is so small.
Rafael Escalona, Patricia Teherán, and Jorge Oñate are hugely important in vallenato but did not play instruments; without them the navbox is worse, but with them the scope becomes more vague still.

There is a case for and against describing these people as "vallenato musicians", and in my opinion that is a problem for this navbox. If it helps to reference the WP:NAVBOX guideline, I'd say that this navbox fails to satisfy the "coherence" criteria of guideline 1, and fails 4 because there is no article on vallenato musicians.

An additional note: if this navbox is deleted, I plan to create one for the Vallenato Legend Festival (and its competitions), which covers many of the same people. See my post at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Latin_music#Vallenato_musicians_navbox. It would replace, to some degree, the connections that this navbox is facilitating, while also having a clearer scope. GanzKnusper (talk) 08:15, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion review

File: Sreenath Subrahmanyam

Dear editors,

I am requesting a review of the decision to delete the profile for several compelling reasons described below As you can see, the academic easily qualifies under the following, and there is compelling and overwhelming evidence. The academic qualifies under (1) WP:PROF#C1; (2) WP:PROF#C2; (3) WP:PROF#C3; and (4) WP:PROF#C4; (5) WP:PROF#C5; and (7) WP:PROF#C7. As you can see from the evidence presented here, there are phenomenal contributions made by the academic, and this has also been ratified by highly accomplished professors from around the world—many thanks for your critical review.

1 WP:PROF#C1

1.1 World's first "Bite and Switch" Sensors The academic was the first to develop a new "Bite and Switch" Sensor, and this has made a tremendous impact in imprinting technology. Several research groups have adopted this new technology. The article discusses the introduction of this new idea and its applications in several research areas, which have proven to be true over the years. The citation score is a testimony to this [23]. The academic is the first author in the publication.

As evidence of the article’s major significance and immense impact on the field of endeavor and other fields alike, this article has been extensively cited over 110 times by leading and independent experts from prestigious institutions around the world, such as the University of Nottingham (UK), University of Kalmar (Sweden), Georgia Tech University (United States), Peking University (China), Université de Perpignan (France), University of Regensburg (Germany), Memorial University of Newfoundland (Canada), Universidad de Oviedo (Spain), and Banaras Hindu University (India). This is demonstrative of the author’s significant influence on the field endeavor and clear evidence of his sustained international acclaim. I am certain that the author has risen to the top percentile of his field of endeavor and is unmatched in his specialization.

1.2 World's first idea that Natural receptors can be used for sensors and assays In the perspective article, which is considered ground-breaking by several researchers around the world (please see below), the academic demonstrated the fundamental properties of natural receptors and analyzes the application of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and G protein-like receptors in affinity sensors.

1.3 A wikipedia article that describes the work in more detail To support the above (1.1 and 1.2, please refer to the Wikipedia article that discusses the new "bite and switch" tool developed by the academic and provides several examples of applications of the idea. [Please review https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_imprinting]

1.4 A special note from "Nature Reviews Chemistry"' "Nature reviews chemistry", one of the reputed Journals has cited the author's work and further confirms that the novel method introduced by the author has been instrumental in the development of sensors. The author is the first author here https://www.nature.com/articles/s41570-022-00439-w (Please see reference #60 on the article)

1.5 Additional evidence of critical contributions reviewed from around the world The other manuscript that copiously cites the author's work has the following to say. "20 functional monomers were initially assessed for their interaction energy with the template ephedrine in both charged and neutral states [328]. Selected monomers were then used for polymer synthesis, but also subjected to further MD simulations together with template, cross-linker, and solvent, where the observed interactions could be correlated with experimental binding data. This approach has since been adapted several times in the literature [329,330,331,332,333,334,335,336,337,338,339,340,341,342,343,344,345,346,347,348,349,350,351,352,353]. (Please see https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4360/13/17/2841)

1.6 Academic's work in Advanced Materials

The academic has another paper as a first author in Advanced Materials (with an incredibly high impact factor of 28.7), and the work highlights that a novel material has been introduced into the field. The Journal is the best in the category for the specialization, and this is widely discussed everywhere on the internet.

1.7 Academic's perspective article [What are perspective articles and who writes them]

Another prescient article by the author was ground-breaking. Analytical Chemistry invited the author to write about the new work that he introduced to the field. The author published the article as a perspective article, and the academic was the first author on the article. Please see https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac025673%2B

Perspective articles are written by experts who offer new direction and new vision to the field. Here is what the Analytical Chemistry Journal has to say about perspectives to show that the author is indeed a pioneer in the field.

"If Reviews are authoritative and Features are educational, then what are Perspectives? This may be the most misunderstood manuscript type, or at least, they were the category that I least understood when I started serving as an Associate Editor several years ago. Perspectives describe the authors’ vision of a specific topic and perhaps point to a new direction for this topic. They oftentimes include an analysis of current research that provides a foundation for the new direction or highlights new opportunities for growth in the field. Perspectives also provide an opportunity for an author to predict the future of their field and, of course, justify their vision. Unlike Features, Perspectives are aimed at specialists in the field, and their writing reflects this orientation". The author's visionary article came on the cover of the Journal. (Please see https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac300107q)

2 WP:PROF#C2

Wiki Criteria#2 confirms that "Some less significant academic honors and awards that confer a high level of academic prestige can also be used to satisfy Criterion 2" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)#C2

The academic has won several prestigious awards, such as (a) Commonwealth Award (Commonwealth Countries) (b) Kings Norton Award (UK) (c) National Institutes of Health Award, US (d) Endeavour Award (Australia) (e) Marie Curie (EU). The Wikipedia Criteria explains that " Some less significant academic honors and awards that confer a high level of academic prestige can also be used to satisfy Criterion 2" and therefore the academic satisfies WP:PROF#C2

3 WP:PROF#C3

3.1 The author is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology (FRSB). "Fellowship of the Royal Society of Biology (FRSB), previously Fellowship of the Society of Biology (FSB), is an award and fellowship granted to individuals that the Royal Society of Biology has adjudged to have made a "prominent contribution to the advancement of the biological sciences". Fellows are entitled to use the post-nominal letters FRSB. As of 2016, examples of fellows include Sir David Attenborough, Martin Hume Johnson, Jasmin Fisher, Sir Tom Blundell, and Dame Nancy Rothwell. See the Category: Fellows of the Royal Society of Biology for more examples" (Please review https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Society_of_Biology) (Please also see https://thebiologist.rsb.org.uk/meet-our-members/member-profiles-6)

3.2 The author is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC). "The Fellowship of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC) is one of the most prestigious awards. Existing Fellows include award-winning scientists and Nobel prize winners" (Please review https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fellow_of_the_Royal_Society_of_Chemistry#:~:text=Fellowship%20of%20the%20Royal%20Society,of%20the%20RSC%20Applications%20Committee)

These are highly selective honors, satisfying Wikipedia's notability criteria for academics (WP:NAC #3).

3.3 The academic has been adjudged as a scientist of extraordinary ability in the Sciences by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services [From the academic's University Webpage]

4 WP:PROF#C4 The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions. This is what the world's top Professors had to say about the work of the academic. The list is not exhaustive and is only representative.

Israel: (Professor Simcha Srebnik) Israel Institute of Technology has quoted the author's work in their work "utilized his patent methodologies to screen between the two molecules using molecular modeling software containing a virtual library of functional monomers, which can be assigned and screened against the target molecule. Not only is this method completely superior to the old method of detection for creatine, but this approach is also readily applicable to the design of assays, sensors, selection of amino acids, and in many other pharmacology and biotechnology settings"

Russia: (Professor Sergei Alexandrovich Eremin) The University of Moscow has quoted the author's work in their work

".......Furthermore, Dr. Subrahmanyam was the first to make hypotheses about the potential of the natural receptors in sensor application. As evidence of the article's critical acclaim and major significance....."

"......the first researcher in the world to develop a new computational tool for the design of receptors that could perform similar to the naturally occurring molecules. This completely new process for sensing used computational procedures to isolate functional molecules for efficient imprinting templates, and it is currently being employed by several research laboratories across the world.

United States: (Professor Ramachandra Naik, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, USA) "...........This is a tool that has been used in drug development, receptor-analyte biding, the mechanisms behind drugs, modified receptor binding for differentiating between closely related analytes, and in developing new vaccines. Dr. Subrahmanyam's invention has been highly influential; since the filing of its patent, there have been patents filed in more than 20 countries based on it.

United States: (Professor V Sethuraman, Brown University, USA) ".........This article was the first in the world to describe the potential applications of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) as bio-recognition elements in next generation biosensor technologies. Moreover, it was also the first to hypothesize the use of natural receptors in sensor technologies. Many researchers from all around the world have referenced the work"

United States: (Professor Wei, U California, LA) The citation below talks about how the authors' work formed the conceptual framework for developing new tests for serum sample analysis. (Please see 3. Wei F., Cheng S., Korin Y., Reed EF., Gjertson D., Ho CM., Gritsch HA., Veale J. (2012) “Serum creatinine detection by a conducting‑polymer‑based electrochemical sensor to identify allograft dysfunction.” Analytical Chemistry 84 (18): 7933–7937. doi:10.1021/ac3016888

United States: (Professor David Myszka, University of Utah, Salt Lake City)

The group of David G. Myszka from the School of Medicine, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, has written in many of their publications that they and their group have investigated the hypothesis published by the academic and have developed purification and characterization methods for some sensing elements. Many publications by at least 25 other research groups on the internet cite the perspective article as the foundation for their research. For want of time and space, I stop short of discussing all of them here.

United States: (Professor Mark E Byre, Auburn University)

…….”it was the first description of using an analogue molecule to create a recognition matrix and successfully demonstrate a signal produced from a subsequent binding event. Thus, this is one the first papers to demonstrate the full potential of imprinted materials as sensors” in his manuscript on molecular sensors

Japan: (Professor Haginaka and his group) Another independent study published in a significant journal confirms that the authors' "bite‑and‑switch" strategy was the first study and one that is instrumental in designing selective creatinine Molecularly imprinted polymer. (Please see 2. Miura C., Funaya N., Matsunaga H., Haginaka J. (2013) “Monodisperse, molecularly imprinted polymers for creatinine by modified precipitation polymerization and their applications to creatinine assays for human serum and urine.” Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis 85: 288–294. doi:10.1016/j.jpba.2013.07.038)

China: (Professor Syu and his group) Another study confirms that the authors' work was the primary precedent for computational functional monomer selection (Please see Hsieh R‑Y, Tsai H‑A, Syu M‑J (2006) “Designing a molecularly imprinted polymer as an artificial receptor for the specific recognition of creatinine in serums.” Biomaterials 27 (9): 2083–2089)

China/ USA: (Professor Myngdi Yan and their group, Portland State University) “…………… hypothesized that G-protein coupled receptors, ion channel receptors and epidermal growth factor receptors could be used as bio-recognition elements. Since then this hypothesis has been successfully studied by several laboratories worldwide. This interesting article put forth the idea that these natural receptors could be used for diagnostic applications and for drug development because of their excellent sensitivity and specificity”

Thailand: Professor Virapong Prachayasittikul, Vice President, Mahidol University, Thailand) “…………the article was the first in the field to pioneer the use of molecular modeling for improving binding performance---- In their article published in the Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design 19(2005) 509-524

Italy: Professor Maria Teresa Giardi, National Council of Research …………..”The computational tool has hence been widely adopted by researchers worldwide”

Book Chapters:

The following book chapters have wide coverage on the internet with explanations on specific contributions made to the ideas presented in there, which are instrumental in designing novel materials. Providing specific examples would make this message longer.
