CEO of a couple of non-notable entities [Money Trade Coin Group, Flint Global] and author of a non-notable book "The World of Crypto Currency".. the subject's entities/book has garnered some press coverage lately but none discusses the subject directly or in detail therefore the Subject does not appear to meet GNG..

• Delete part of a way to large set of articles on non-notable businesspeople.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:19, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep MTC Group actually garnered significant coverage because a crypto exchange was a major deal in the UAE. There are more sources for Amit Lakhanpal that exist. I suppose I thought the ones I added were enough. I will add those as well. (I am the author of this article) Globe2trotter (talk) 12:51, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We need to see in-depth and sig-coverage about the subject, not about the MTC Group. I expect you should provide a couple of links here which you believe can help establish the notability. --Saqib (talk) 12:58, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have done some more research on him. There are many more articles that focus on him. I have pasted some key interviews he did. I didn't use them since the credibility of interviews can be questioned but worth noting that these interviews were on major news channels (cnbc, abp etc). Regarding the articles on him, I think I will improve on the page by Monday and request you to review it then

• — Note to closing admin: Globe2trotter (talk • contribs) appears to have a close connection with the subject of the article being discussed.

Not sure who put the COI tag for me but I have absolutely no connection with the subject in question. He gets featured in the press here in India as a socialite and is talked about because of the amount of jewellery he wears in his pictures (if you google his name,you will know what I mean). Other than that, I don't know him or any person connected to him. As I had promised a few days earlier, I have added more sources focused on Amit Lakhanpal. Everyone should review that as well. If the admin decides it's not enough,I'd be happy to learn more from this experience. Globe2trotter (talk) 09:47, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete the references are low-quality, and "Money Trade Coin" appears to not be notable. The cryptocurrency press is filled with so much hype and self-promotion now that I don't see how an encyclopedic article can be written. power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:58, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
