Weak keep. I do see evidence that he is known in his community and has received ongoing coverage from 2007 onwards. It's not the greatest coverage, but it exists, and I think there is enough there to justify the article existing, although it does need quite a bit of tidying up and improving of citations/style. He is still receiving namechecks and coverage in 2015, now as a judge for these contests rather than as a winner. Despite my well-documented feelings on pageants, I don't see any compelling reasons why he shouldn't be on here, but similarly, I don't see anything super-compelling as to why he should - but I see many more reasons to lean towards keep.

Strong keep. Subject is only popular/notable amongst Sri Lankan community. He is not only a model but an upcoming film actor in Sri Lanka (may not be notable in Hollywood or Bollywood).DilJco (talk) 00:15, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, whether the subject is popular in Sri Lanka or not, the onus is on you to establish their notability in accordance with WP guidelines. Dan arndt (talk) 01:38, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - clearly does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NACTOR. Searches on news, newspapers and JStor reveal a single 5 year old hit, which is only a brief mention. Highbeam reveals a couple of more, but again, brief mentions. 3 brief mentions in 5 years is hardly notable. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:34, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
