Speedy deletion declined: Ashvir Sangha
Hello Adamfinmo. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Ashvir Sangha, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: "he became the only person ever to serve as President of both the Oxford Union Society and Oxford Entrepreneurs" indicates significance, a lesser test than notability. To WP:AfD? Thank you. Shirt58 (talk) 10:02, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
