This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to India. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|India|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to India. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.
This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Asia.

The first title from this imprint went on to become a notable series. There's no evidence the imprint is notable, and with neither the TV show nor their founders' articles mentioning it other than in passing as co-founders, there's no obvious redirect. The production house has no article and with only five titles there's no evidence it's notable enough to build an article to redirect this to. StarM 02:39, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

The result was delete. Ugh, political articles are always a problem because partisanship often leads editors to toss policy out the window. The deletion arguments are essentially ESSAY, POV & POVFORK. I’m also concerned by the argument that this contains material that wouldn’t be suitable for the bio - so is this a coat rack or a disguised opportunity for hosting blp vios? Not sure but it means we need to be cautious in the outcome.
On the keep side, the argument is that its notable and has sources and some ridiculous comparison with other articles which is invalid per wax.
This therefore comes down to an issue of notability and since its an article about bihar under lalu prasad yadev have the sources been demonstrated to discuss that intersection in a nonpolemic and scholarly way so that we can create a neutral and balanced article? My read of the keep arguments is that this argument has not been made and that the sources have been asserted and not demonstrated. Given the concerns about blp and pov expressed in the delete argument we need to be very clear that polemic or partisan sources wouldn’t be a suitable fit for a neutral article but that’s a question for another day.

Delete --This is not an article it is an Essay and should be deleted as per WP:NOTESSAY. If articles which are mostly an Essay are allowed then others will create articles like Gujarat under Narendra Modi, West Bengal under Mamta Banerjee, Orissa under Biju Patanaik, United States of America under Donald Trump in order to push their Point of View and opinion. Such essays are usually created either to glorify or castigate the person. Heybata (talk) 16:05, 15 February 2021 (UTC) — Heybata (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Keep See Russia under Vladimir Putin and Presidency of Donald Trump and its not a valid ground to delete an article having a lot of reliable sources.No personal opinion are mentioned, everything is from high quality sources, read the policy carefully, u mentioned, its backed by large number of sources and not a original publication. Heba Aisha (talk) 20:31, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- The nomination is itself a big issue in this case as the nominator is a WP:SPA, mostly having any issue with the subject. The route of Afd was chosen though the cleanup might have been a good idea with the article having a lot of reliable book sources from high quality publishers and authors in the topic area. I can see many comments are just posted by people who haven't edited in this topic area in the past nor do procedural grounds indicate the need to delete such article. Meanwhile some of the initial comment also indicates WP:COI issue of the voters in this Afd. The attempt of one of the voter in the original article of Lalu Prasad Yadav to keep criminal conviction in the lead [1] seemed POV violation as a whole section talks about multiple criminal conviction of the subject. I want to clarify, I know about WP:uncensored. Heba Aisha (talk) 11:23, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. A WP:CFORK like this could be appropriate if the information does not fit in the article about Lalu Prasad Yadav. However, I find the current article a bit confusing. First of all, the WP:LEAD does not seem to give a summary of the article as the lead is supposed to give, but instead provides background. A fork also does not need to contain a short biography of the person of which it is a fork (Lalu Prasad Yadav). That is no reason for deletion though. - Tristan Surtel (talk) 21:26, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- Yupp, the article discusses about transformation of Bihari society in his tenure, including the changes in contemporary politics. You can call it partly political and partly a historical article. Actually, it also mention the background of politics of 1990 Bihar, which paved the way for RJD coming into power, the lead indicate that particular thing only. Heba Aisha (talk) 22:02, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep the article could be improved (e.g. the lead should be the Background section and a new lead is needed), but that's no reason for deletion. There are 79 sources used; most of them look decent, and the topic seems notable enough. I suggest that the nominator might better address their perceived complaint of bias by finding reliable sources that give the other point of view, and use them to improve the article. --RexxS (talk) 23:32, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- I have made the changes u suggested. ThanksHeba Aisha (talk) 12:46, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Not a good WP:CFORK since it mainly offers a perspective about his rule than rely on facts. Equally . Comparing the subject with Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin is also far from making any sense because these individuals reigned has presidents of their nations. Lalu Yadav was just a chief minister. Once WP:UNDUE sections like "Background", "On Yadavisation", "Colonial roots of underdevelopment in Bihar" and others have been removed then the article will become small already. --Yoonadue (talk) 15:16, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- It depends upon WP:Notability of issue, and here you can find 100 of books about governance during his period. I can see wikipedia going to miss a historical article if it gets deleted as articles related to Bihar are already in poor state with non verifiable sources. All the old politics related article were written by using sources that are not accessible and a lot of information was veiled. This is the first time I tried to give visible and verifiable source for every point of the article.Heba Aisha (talk) 16:18, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- I can see sections like personality cult in Russia under Vladimir Putin, these are the things mentioned many a times in the news articles and the sources, similar is the case of Yadavisation[2][3] , which has gain notability in political circle of Bihar, a simple google search will tell you that its not WP:UNDUE.Heba Aisha (talk) 16:30, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Should I assume WP:SILENCE ?Heba Aisha (talk) 00:38, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete I don't see how this subject holds enough currency to require a stand alone article. I also don't see similar articles for every chief minister/state combination. Some of the sources don't even mention Lalu Prasad Yadav so the article also violates WP:OR. Important content already exists on Lalu Prasad Yadav. Any important content in the article should be shifted to under Bihar article.Santosh L (talk) 15:52, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- It's better to keep an article seperate if enough information can be included in it and it becomes too big to be included in any article. This topic needs seperate mentioning considering the notability and reliable sources present on the topic. Heba Aisha (talk) 16:24, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- The sources which donot mention him, must mention the background of his political ascedency, afterall everything is accessible, anyone can see clearly, its nothing like an WP:OR.I would like to mention wat admin said above:

Heba Aisha (talk) 16:36, 16 February 2021 (UTC)- Should I assume WP:SILENCE?Heba Aisha (talk) 00:43, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOPAGE. You can easily find more than 80 sources for expanding a subject like this, but the main article Lalu Prasad Yadav should be enough for all relevant content. That article is only 66k bytes, and there will be no issue with adding roughly 10k bytes more there. --RaviC (talk) 10:20, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
- As per administrator Miniapolis, the article couldn't be merge being too long and the content can't be included in Lalu Prasad Yadav article being not suitable for biography. Heba Aisha (talk) 22:39, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Merge The article Lalu Prasad Yadav doesn't seem long enough that it needs to have a separate article focusing solely on his political career. Whereas if we look at articles like Donald Trump or Vladimir Putin, those articles are huge and as leaders of a country, definitely can be able to spin off their own pages on their political careers. Whereas I feel much of this article contains excellent and detailed information that can easily be transplanted to Lalu Prasad Yadav, where the additional content would be a good addition to beef up the page, because currently, Bihar under Lalu Prasad Yadav is longer than Lalu Prasad Yadav itself. Also the information can be put on History of Bihar which also could use some more additions.Chariotrider555 (talk) 13:55, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

- Keep Notable topic with plenty of sources, and potential merge targets are long enough already. AfD is not cleanup. Miniapolis 15:00, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
- Yes Its not possible to merge and many fine sources are used. The nominator seems to be a novice who seems to have some dispute over the content, but it is not a sound criteria for delition. Heba Aisha (talk) 15:15, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
Delete: Not there. Uses selective sources to support his views. Shows Laluji and Bihar badly. This person is anti-bihari. Delete and block him.

- Delete per nom, Yoonadue and WP:NOPAGE. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 20:07, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Read WP:NOPAGE properly and relevant examples like Barack Obama 2012 presidential campaign clearly says the opposite what's kept here.Heba Aisha (talk) 22:51, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - Obviously a notable topic. Being essay-like is not grounds for deletion. If it is essay-like, improve it. That seems to be a cosmetic objection anyway. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 23:36, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: Per WP:NOPAGE and WP:CFORK. Comparing him with Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump as an argument for keeping doesn't hold water -- he's nowhere as consequential as the other two. --1990'sguy (talk) 03:17, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
- 1990'sguy, please see the number of books written above his rule. The topic is highly notable as a simple search on google books will take you to plenty of materials from publishers like Routledge and Penguin uk also the oxford university press. Being a national leader or president of a big nation shouldn't be the criteria to decide WP:Notability. Heba Aisha (talk) 11:14, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep: Notable topic since a large part of media coverage during Yadav's tenure as the chief minister (or his wife's) was concerned about his "rule" of the state and was largely critical about it. Any WP:POV in the article can be ironed out however. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 07:13, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Article reads like a WP:POVFORK as described above, particularly by Santoshsatvik. Most of the section about Bihar_under_Lalu_Prasad_Yadav#Assessment has barely anything to do with the subject. Lalu Prasad Yadav is nowhere in the List of longest-serving Indian chief ministers. None of those 40 longest serving chief ministers of India have their own "xxx(state) under xxxx (CM name)". There is no need to develop a new standard for this subject as pointed out by the nominator. Tessaracter (talk) 08:18, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- Tessaracter, the Afd is not about cleanup. If anyone think that there are pov issue in the article, the opposite view along with source could be presented. Meanwhile, I would suggest you to go through the sources as the sources say what is there in the article. Heba Aisha (talk) 11:03, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- Meanwhile, I would also urge you to do necessary edits if you feel the word " Assessment " is problematic there.PS: Various high quality sources are provided along with the preview and it is upto other editors to iron out any pov "if they think it is there ", though I have tried to remain totally neutral. Heba Aisha (talk) 11:10, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- Heba Aisha, you're not convincing other editors of your POV by bludgeoning the discussion. Let the community have its say, and I hope you don't have an undisclosed conflict of interest with this article. Miniapolis 14:52, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- Miniapolis, sure I dont have any COI, I was just saying it is open to be edited if one thinks so.Heba Aisha (talk) 18:06, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. I see no evidence that would lead me to conclude that this has been treated by sources as an independent topic. MBlaze Lightning (talk) 05:15, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. While it certainly has issues, I do not buy the argument that there's a lack of precedent—subnational entities and their leaders are perfectly valid targets for articles, see e.g. Governorship of Phil Murphy or Governorship of Rick Perry. (And Bihar dwarfs both Texas and New Jersey). There may be a lack of precedent for India but I would argue that is a reflection of Wikipedia's under-coverage of non-Western countries more than anything else.

- Delete: Web searching does not reveal enough coverage to satisfy WP:NCORP and they seem to revolve around the establishment of the subject only.

Not sure this is notable. The cites in the article are routine coverage, and WP:BEFORE failed to find anything that demonstrated GNG/NFILM.

The result was no consensus. After extended time for discussion, there is a clear absence of consensus and a well-supported argument that the subject was already notable in terms of coverage prior to the arrest that serves as the basis of the WP:BLP1E assertion. Given the volume and divided nature of participation, it does not appear that further relisting will yield a clearer resolution. BD2412 T 19:48, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

- Question: Wareon, are you proposing the text be deleted or are you proposing the text be moved to Arrest of Disha Ravi?
- Had the article been created post-arrest this question would have been valid. The page was created prior to the farmers' protests as well so calling it "inherited notability" also fails. The Vogue and Citizen Matters links make a case for notability of the subject in herself as a climate change activist while the arrest has only pushed her into world view.

- Delete Per nom. My analysis of sources is as follow:
- BBC only talks about arrest.
- Vogue has only quotes from the subject, no significant coverage.
- The Wire makes no mention of "Disha Ravi"
- Arre.co.in is an unreliable source that makes no mention of "Disha Ravi".
- The News Minute is reporting same thing as BBC about arrest.
- Bengaluru.citizenmatters.in provides no biographic details but only covers her small interview.
- Boldsky.com is same as above. Just small interview.
- The Guardian only provides a quote by the subject.
- Clearly, some of the sources are misused and most of them provide no significant coverage. She is known for being arrested over farmers protests but not everyone arrested over the protests require article. Aman Kumar Goel (Talk) 18:40, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

- Not a single source is any different than what has been already analyzed above. Instead of updating about every single source you add, how about you just show multiple reliable sources that provided her significant coverage without talking or mainly relying on the words about her arrest?

- Delete There is no scarcity of such 'climate activists' because there are too many. For a name, you can also create article about Mitzi Jonelle Tan and say that notability exists.

- Keep per WP:GNG, including based on the sources I have added to the article, which includes in-depth reporting on more than Ravi's arrest, and includes coverage of her past activism, education, and current prominence. As a co-founder of the 'Fridays For Future' campaign, she has been referred to as 'Bengaluru’s Greta' by the New Indian Express, and this may help explain the intense interest in her arrest and incarceration, as well as the prior and current coverage. Beccaynr (talk) 03:15, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Per WP:BLP1E, there is reporting that is not just about a single event, but also includes the larger context of her past activism, her association with past and current protests, and Greta Thunberg. Ravi also wasn't previously low-profile, because per the WP:LOWPROFILE explanatory supplement, she had given "one or more scheduled interviews to a notable publication", e.g. British Vogue, as a notable commentator, and "participated in an attention-seeking manner in publicity for [...] a cause," and she is engaged in "high-profile activity."

Beccaynr (talk) 04:49, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Based on the recent and past reporting, Ravi's WP:GNG notability also appears to be based on her past and current work as a climate activist, not simply her involvement with the 2020-2021 Indian farmers' protest. e.g. Farmers toolkit case: Aarey to EIA, Goa to Dehra Dun, Disha Ravi part of many climate causes (The Indian Express), Delhi Police Arrests Climate Activist Disha Ravi, Who is She? (The Quint), From climate activist to 'Toolkit Editor', who is Disha Ravi? (Economic Times), Who is Disha Ravi, the climate activist arrested by Delhi police? (Scroll.in), Who is Disha Ravi? All you need to know about the 21-year-old climate change activist held in Greta Thunberg toolkit case (The Free Press Journal). Beccaynr (talk) 17:30, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- +1 and also note for closing admin this particular case is quite polarizing because its caught up in the larger political environment around the farmer protests: several of the accounts participating in the vote are new or inexperienced editors or accounts that have only been active on deletion discussions. Sadads (talk) 18:09, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- But not a single source provides her coverage without mainly talking about her arrest. You need to show multiple reliable sources which provided her significant coverage without talking or mainly relying on the words about her arrest. I know that has not happened, that's why you need to read WP:GNG. Shankargb (talk) 02:12, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment WP:GNG says, "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material," so the significant coverage of Ravi's past activism and biographical information does appear to contribute to her notability, even when the sources also discuss her recent arrest and/or incarceration. In addition, there are sources, such as British Vogue and The Guardian, at minimum per WP:BASIC, that contributed to her notability before her arrest, because "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability." Beccaynr (talk) 02:26, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Vogue only provides her quote and same with Guardian, prior to her arrest. So yes it still fails WP:GNG given this is a case of WP:BLP1E. Shankargb (talk) 04:39, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

- Keep This article existed before the single event being complained of, so not only should WP:BLP1E be considered, but also the notability of Disha Ravi prior to arrest. In any event WP:BLP1E has three conditions that must be met. The third is If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented. For this to be NOT met the event must be significant AND the individual's role must be substantial AND well documented. Given the depth of coverage of the arrest, and that Disha Ravi's role in that arrest was central and the arrest is well documented, I contend that the third condition is not met and so WP:BLP1E is not met, and so the article should not be deleted.

- Delete The page was under the radar when it was created, does she have notability? The page creator is an admin, they have voted here without declaring that they created the page, that may not be a "rule" but imo good manners I suppose. Did the article pass the exacting standards that Wikipedia requires? I checked one source, the Thomson Reuters one. An opinion piece in which the subject is one amongst the many. The article as it stood then smacks of WP:NOTADVOCACY and ought not to have existed. Is there objectivity in how Wikipedia chooses its subjects? My vote is to impart it. Looking at it today the subject is not notable except for her arrest. Basis of my vote is wp:notnews wp:event and wp:1E Yogesh Khandke (talk) 01:13, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment:From the first version you linked, the Vogue focuses on four climate change activists of colour and Disha is one. Citizen matters is a community reporting website which focuses on interviewing Ravi. This establishes basic notability. What it also establishes is that the subject is not a product of the farmer protests as being claimed. Vikram Vincent 04:04, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

- Keep - the essay WP:NOT1E is in my view correct: "If the article's subject has done more than one notable thing, even if the rest of it is far overshadowed by the primary event, BLP1E does not apply." The previous coverage is enough. In addition, I am not convinced that Ravi meets BLP1E criterion 2, which asks whether she "otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual." It seems clear that she is far from low-profile and that she likely will, to the contrary, receive substantial attention in Indian public discourse. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 07:04, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per Extraordinary Writ. The argument that she was one of 26 arrested doesn't hold, as the media was giving her specific attention. The pre-arrest covering is small, but probably sufficient (f.i. 1/4 of a Vogue article). She doesn't seem she meets BLP1E criterion 2 either, 'likely to remain low-profile' after her arrest. FemkeMilene (talk) 08:20, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete This article needs to be deleted since the subject is not someone notable enough to deserve an article. Also, the article seems to be highly biased and has quoted many far-left news sources.

Ravi's arrest prompted protests and renewed concerns of an authoritarian backlash to the farmers' protests that have rocked the country.
Calling the page "propoganda" is a red herring and poisoning the well argument without any basis. Wikipedia does not make up the positions; and we rely on WP:RS. WP:Verifiability not WP:Truth.

RationalPuff (talk) 18:38, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
- Reading WP:NOTBLP1E we come across,
The major moving part in BLP1E regards low-profile individuals; a low profile by choice (especially someone who actively avoids attention) is generally considered an argument in favour of the deletion of borderline articles.
WP:BLP1E is about a very narrow criteria as mentioned and hypothetically, even if the subject wants to remain low profile after this in order to fit within BLP1E, practically they won't be able to. Having said that, following are the reasons why the subject won't fall within BLP1E: 1. The case is high profile and will remain in the media for a while. An exclusive Time magazine has covered the issue which means worldwide attention; 2. Social media groups are having a field day in trying to project the image of the subject using trending hash tags. You can find public calls to disrupt this AfD and the page; 3. The page of the subject received 128,153 views in under 5 days with 54 authors and 337 edits(as of this moment) which is a good indicator, even if not per Wiki criteria, for notability.

- Delete: Aman Kumar Goel's comment convinces me that the subject is not notable enough for an article. Subject is only came in knowledge after recent event. In fact, if you read the article, 95% of the article is about the recent event. So, delete. Aniruddh 02:44, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment As of 18:18 on 19 Feb 2020 the article is 2532 words long. Words 19 to 106 and words 658 to 2532 are about her arrest. That is 1963 of 2532 words (78%) are about her arrest. However in the remaining 569 words are backed up by 19 references. So if you removed all of the words about her arrest, there would still be a well referenced article that meets WP:BASIC. This is not a case of WP:BLP1E. Tango Mike Bravo (talk) 18:34, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: Now in a Google knowledge panel but only 11 thousand page views yesterday. Strange this is language linked to a Spanish article but not any Indian languages. Chidgk1 (talk) 16:29, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep: Significant coverage from plenty of WP:RS. The above links by Beccaynr significantly reports about her climate activism and her role in protests which makes it clear that it's not WP:BLP1E. Also, WP:BIO1E states,
If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate.
, so it easily passes the notability test. SUN EYE 1 17:34, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment And per WP:NOTNEWS, which states, "Unless news coverage of an individual goes beyond the context of a single event, our coverage of that individual should be limited to the article about that event," those sources, and many others in the article, including the recently-added report from Reuters, which states, "Ravi’s arrest has kicked off a fire storm of criticism against Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government for using heavy-handed tactics to counter the farmers’ agitation," show that the news coverage goes far beyond the context of a single event, includes her past activism and her role in protests, and her significant impact on the ongoing protests. BBC News, The New York Times, The Telegraph (UK) and TIME magazine have also reported on the broader context of Ravi's arrest. Beccaynr (talk) 18:10, 19 February 2021 (UTC) NBC News describes Ravi as a "well-known figure in the country’s growing environmental movement" and also reports Ravi "has emerged as a symbol of the Indian government’s crackdown on dissent" and her arrest has "renewed concerns of an authoritarian backlash to the farmers’ protests that have rocked the country." Beccaynr (talk) 17:58, 20 February 2021 (UTC) (comment updated Beccaynr (talk) 18:01, 20 February 2021 (UTC)) WP:BLP1E and WP:NOTNEWS both appear to support a standalone article for Ravi, due to the sources discussed here and the many other sources included in the article that further demonstrate her substantial and well-documented role as an activist and in this recent event. Beccaynr (talk) 18:11, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. Lots of references from WP:RS/P that are all WP:SIGCOV pieces on her as sole subject: E.g. The Guardian, NBC, BBC. I could probably list off much of the WP:RS/P list who have done piece on her (e.g. even financial-focused RS like Fortune). Unambigious pass of WP:GNG.

- Keep She is notable and she has been well known before her arrest, the topic important. April 2020 ‘’[6]’’[5] User:Baronlx01 — Preceding undated comment added 02:59, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. What seems to be odd is that wiki contributors had no problem with the wiki page before her arrest and imprisonment for conspiracy and sedition against the Indian Government. The arguments seem to be that now she has been arrested the page created about her before her arrest needs to be deleted. That because a single arrest does not warrant a wiki page. So my question are those grounds for removal of a wiki page. If there is a wiki page about an activist and the government in their country arrests and imprisons them does that according to wiki contributors provide sufficient reason to remove their page obviously not to back down to an authoritarian regime or support a friendly democratic power but because being arrested and having that in the news would make the page more popular than it should be. Is that your reasoning. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.252.25.234 (talk) 10:54, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. Back in October, before the page was created and four months before she was arrested, she was one of half a dozen "young activists" from around the world being sought out by the BBC for comment on safely protesting during a pandemic. Since then, we've had more than enough significant coverage to establish notability. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 11:21, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete: Some people like Thjarkur have been ardent supporters of this page because they got the wrong idea about the whole thing. She is neither a famous feminist nor a human rights activist in the conventional sense. She was an employee of a telecom company in Kerala and became famous in social media as a bikini model or some such thing. When the Entry of women to Sabarimala controversy flared up she appeared in the news for attempting to enter the temple. She may be mentioned in this page, but does not merit a page on her own.

Beccaynr (talk) 04:43, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I am working to revise the article before I conduct additional research, but I now better understand that her actions have been deeply offensive to many people; this seems to help explain why she appears to meet WP:GNG, because the offense she has caused, and the consequences and reactions she has experienced, have generated significant news coverage.

- India is a democracy with 3 levels of governance: central, state and panchayat. India is largely rural, with about 900m people living in rural areas (compared to about 15m rural pop. in the US). Since India has such a large rural population -- 68% of its total -- its villages and their governance are important. With 600,000 villages and 250,000 gram panchayats, the average population served by a GP is ~3,600. For perspective, New York State has 534 villages with an average population of 3,524. Every one of these 534 villages has an article in Wikipedia. List of villages in New York (state) This includes villages with pop. < 100, such as Dering Harbor, New York with pop. 11.
Kamand GP serves a population of about 3,000 (2011 Census). Likely to be 3,500 today, extrapolating from Demographics of India. More importantly, Kamand GP borders IIT Mandi which is a technological university of global importance. Kamand GP includes the two villages at the entrances to IIT Mandi South and North Campuses.
As Wikipedia is online, there is no problem per se with 250,000 pages, provided they are properly categorised. At present there are just a handful of GP pages, categorised by state. As the number grows, the categorisation can be changed to district-wise. --Tagooty (talk) 13:42, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information WP:INDISCRIMINATE. What you stated above is content for Gram panchayat. Feel free improve Gram panchayat rather than creating tons of other articles that essentially says the same thing with the exception of name of the place it linked to. A village and its governce body are not the same thing. GPs need to meet WP:NORG. Simply establishing it exists is not enough. RationalPuff (talk) 19:33, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

- @RandomPuff: @Kautilya3: Thanks for the clarifications and suggestions. The guidelines you've cited are very useful to me.
I propose to change the name of the article to "Kamand village, Mandi district". There are Kamand villages in adjacent Kullu and Kangra districts in Himachal, hence the qualifier "Mandi district".
The article will have a section "Governance (Gram Panchayat Kamand)" with the current content, plus sections about the village: "Description", "Education", "Demographics", "Transport", "History", "Gallery". I will make the changes within 72 hours. I hope that this addresses the concern and the discussion can be closed favourably. --Tagooty (talk) 14:52, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, qualifying with "Mandi district" is perfectly fine. However, I don't think "village" is needed in the page title unless it is needed for some other disambiguation. See, e.g., Una, Himachal Pradesh. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 15:23, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- I see the article creator now has renamed the article. But it need be made contextual. Also there are loads of unsourced content particularly related to the GP and its members. You simply can't have these unless you back it up with relevant references. RationalPuff (talk) 09:54, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
- @RationalPuff: @Kautilya3: I have removed the GP members section until I can get authentic references. This makes the various sections more balanced. I've added some references for content on the village. Will keep improving as I get further references.
@RationalPuff: Could you explain what you mean by "But it need be made contextual"?

The result was delete. Delete votes address sources, and while the keep votes attempt to refute them, they do not do so in a manner that is able to achieve consensus. Additionally the keep votes do not address the arguments for promotion in a way that is consistent with policy—simply claiming someone is notable is not a counter argument to the deletion votes on spam grounds as promotion is a violation of WP:NOT, which is an independent grounds for deletion.

As per the previous two afds, he still isn't notable - his Nick win is the only thing that changed but it hasn't resulted in any additional coverage. Forbes 30 under 30 is meaningless, it has no value and it's based on a lottery and persistence and is awarded to 600 people a year, which is far from unique. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ashish A. Chanchlani has an extensive review of the sources (minus the current passing mentions which are worthless.) The Nick award is interesting from a Wikipedia point of view because it's a kids choice award, and yet his channel is very much not a children's channel, which leads me to believe the voting was, let's say untoward...

- Delete and salt: No new definitive GNG sources to help since July 2020. 30 under 30 doesn't establish notability. The Nick award really depends on better outside coverage and is about as notable as a Streamy award or a Behind The Voice Actors award. As I said in the CSD, this should have been rewritten completely at draft without any use of unreliable/not-so-reliable sources. If he is as popular as Dream (YouTuber) (23.5 vs. 24.4 million) there should be multiple RS'es that give him lots of coverage. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 19:44, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- AngusWOOF The more I dig into the Nick award, the more concerns I have about it's value and general trustworthyness. Why is a channel - geared very clearly toward adults, publishing content like this, winning a KCA, intended for children? KCA is also overall kind of irrelevant to notability because all it requires is an online-click campaign. Not to mention our article on KCA India leaves me to believe this isn't the same award it once was. CUPIDICAE💕 19:48, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- THe idea that because he has x viewers and so did y person, so he should be notable is flawed though. As the Nick award shows and the countless number of Facebook likes for certain websites that don't even exist, viewers and subscribers can be bought. The only thing that matters here is sourcing. And it simply doesn't exist yet. CUPIDICAE💕 20:27, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

It’s entirely plausible that he legitimately won the kid’s choice award, and that his audience has since, let’s say … grown up.
He also won an award at the Cannes Film Festival.SailingInABathTub (talk) 21:25, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

(Cannes hosts many festivals and events of various kinds, the city is known for it.)

- Delete - The article as written does not make a case for general notability.
- The onus is on the author of an article to establish notability under any circumstances.
- The onus is even more emphatically on an article to establish notability when previous deletion discussions have found that the subject is not notable.
- There have been two previous AFDs and an MFD.
- Prior articles did not establish notability, and this article does not establish notability.
Robert McClenon (talk) 05:25, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete and salt: The current article mentions,"Chanchlani was interviewed on Worklife India..." This show is a regional chat show and NOT an interview of notable personalities. The Indian Television Academy Awards is a vanity award event. Moreover, he is one among 5 'social media stars' nominee. The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards India, cited sources (medianews4u, style.yahoo) are unreliable, which suggest that, these awards are not significant. Neurofreak (talk) 08:53, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete and salt. The things that have changed since the last AfD are the Nickelodeon kids award and the Forbes India list. The award is of very doubtful notability, and being included on the Forbes India 30 under 30 list (which is not independently notable) doesn't in itself confer notability on an individual. Being interviewed on TV does not make a person notable either, unless there is independent coverage, but as it is, all sources in the article (including those that have been removed) are primary and/or not independent. Regarding the ITA Awards nomination, even if he were to win on Monday that means nothing – it's a "popular" category, not a notable award. This is an individual who makes money from adding covert advertising to his YouTube videos, and so it is probably important for him and his marketing people that he is as visible as possible on the Internet, to attract more customers. That's not Wikipedia's concern, however. --bonadea contributions talk 11:12, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete: It is unfortunate that there are no WP:RS to reflect notability though the person is quite famous IRL. The three step methodology of the Forbes India magazine is a bit suspect as actual data is not provided to substantiate claims along with 'how were the experts chosen?' and 'what parameters did they use to identify the final 30?'. Further, voting in the second phase is prone to gaming and hence problematic. I'd have a similar set of objections to the Nick awards. Vikram Vincent 16:18, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

- Keep: The fact that publicists like their clients to have Wikipedia articles is indeed not our concern, in that it has no bearing either way on notability. I have to question how "extensive" the review of the sources in the previous AfD was. One of the sources classified as "unknown/spam?" is in fact the Indian edition of Entrepreneur magazine, something that would have taken roughly 30 seconds to learn: https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/346458. And whatever the methodology or rigor of the Forbes list, its result is nevertheless coverage in a magazine that consensus has deemed reliable per WP:RSP. (The previous AfD claims that the article is a Forbes contributor piece; it is not. It ran in the print edition.) Gnomingstuff (talk) 13:34, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- Please note that the concerned source was kept under "uncategorized.." not under "unknown.." as you mentioned above. This is a link to a guest list of an Entrepreneur India event. The same wikpedia article still can be read here: https://en.everybodywiki.com/Ashish_A._Chanchlani. As far as I know, it is not considered as a reliable source for wikipedia entries. Neurofreak (talk) 17:00, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- The fact that a publication has ancillary promotional events, PR wings, or "X Under X" lists is not a referendum on the entire publication's notability or reliability. Forbes is a good example of a case where the extended universe of promotional/"guest" content is separate from the publication itself, and the Entrepreneur article appears to be similar (the note at the bottom states it, too, was published in the print edition). Gnomingstuff (talk) 18:53, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- Neither I commented on Entrepreneur notabilty/reliabilty nor I added the (entrepreneur.com) under "uncategorized/spam" in the previous AfD.

- Gnomingstuff Did you even read my source analysis? Would you like to provide at least one independent source about this person? Because right now there's nothing that meets this criteria. Your assertion that my nom is simply because it's paid is ridiculous and untrue, considering I've now done three indepth analysis of the sources and not a single keep here has provided a single independent reliable source much less one that isn't paid for PR, which by definition doesn't contribute to notability. Further, Forbes is discussed EXTENSIVELY at RSP/RSN - 30 under 30 isn't a prestigious or notable award that establishes notability in and of itself, it's awarded to 600 people a year and there is nothing more that determines it other than a self-submission and luck of the draw. Further, he hasn't received significant coverage because of that itself. CUPIDICAE💕 20:46, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

- We seem to be talking about different Forbes pieces. The one I am referring to (https://www.forbesindia.com/article/30-under-30-2021/ashish-chanchlani-going-viral-for-a-living/66315/1) is a piece that ran in the magazine. The author, Mansvini Kaushik, was employed by Forbes at the time of publication, and the piece ran in the print magazine ("This story appears in the 12 February, 2021 issue of Forbes India."). This is the Forbes category listed as reliable on WP:RSP. The awards are not the reason I bring this piece up, but the fact that the magazine decided to run a profile of him in the print edition. If you would like to argue that these are "paid-for PR" you will have to provide proof of that (and, by definition, it can't both be "paid-for PR" and "luck of the draw"). Similarly, the Enterpreneur piece is also a staff profile independent of this guy. Gnomingstuff (talk) 00:15, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

- The Indian Express is certainly quite reputed media organisation, but the article is not an independent profile of notable persons. It is a 2-liner news about his COVID-19 recovery, and the remaining article quote his twitter and instagram posts. Neurofreak (talk) 07:29, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
- The Forbes piece that Gnomingstuff refers to is independent in the sense that it does not appear to be commissioned by Chanchlani's PR people, but it is undeniably a primary source as it is an interview – and looking at the raw word count of that text, almost exactly half of it is direct quotes from Chanchlani. This was published because he is on the 30 under 30 list published by the same magazine, so not independent in that sense. (As an aside, the Forbes writer claims that the blogger award Chanchlani won was connected to the Cannes Film Festival, so not exactly a careful fact checker...)
- As for the Entrepreneur article, the situation is identical. A piece based in its entirety on an interview with a lot of direct speech, published because Chanchlani was listed in their "35 under 35". To be clear, that kind of source does explicitly not count towards notability. --bonadea contributions talk 08:32, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

- I would be surprised if there was nothing on line, but also note that sources do not need to be online, they just need to be reliable, secondary and independent. Having seen today multiple articles on vocational colleges in the US that lack any source beyond their own website, I am not as sure as I once was that sourcing on all tertiary institutions is easy to find. Although I did no searches just moved on after adding a founding date category to those pages, so for all I know it is really easy to find sources and the article creator was lazy. My current example of this is that Dallin H. Oaks lacks any sources on his bio for the first 2 years it existed, and it has never been hard to find sources on Oaks. I still think we need to use a broader array of sources on Oaks' time as BYU presdient, but it has always been possible to find sources on him.

Based on the sources that were in the article and the ones I have added, Chakraborty appears to meet WP:GNG; the news coverage over the past decade also extends beyond her acting career and includes her academic studies and personal/political/family life; it also appears that additional sources are likely to exist, per WP:NEXIST.

As per Wikipedia guidelines - Just being an elected local official does not guarantee notability. Also, the subject has not received SIGNIFICANT coverage to meet the notability guideline — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8805:D487:A600:CAC:35F7:BB98:5CDA (talk) 23:42, February 10, 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - Completing nomination on behalf of IP nominator. Above text is copied from edit summary from when they AfD tagged the article. Article had been PROD-ded thrice by IP for notability, and was overruled by two different experienced editors (Pinging GB fan and Johnpacklambert to chime in). As for my own view, subject is clearly and verifiably notable per WP:NPOL as an elected Indian state legislator. The references are in dire need of improvement and the article possibly needs to be stubified, but there is no justification for deleting the article entirely. --Finngall talk 04:00, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

- Could you be so kind as to provide to this AFD at least three articles on the subject that would prove that the person has received SIGNIFICANT coverage, which is a requirement for being notable as per Wikipedia guidelines?
- Could you be so kind as to listen to what you're being told? State legislators are inherently notable under WP:NPOL #1 — which means that so long as it's possible to verify that they actually held the claimed role and aren't an outright hoax, their article must be allowed to exist regardless of whether it's written and sourced up to scratch yet or not. They are not "local" officeholders under NPOL #2; they are state officeholders under NPOL #1, and are thus held to a different standard than the one you're trying to shoehorn him into. And no, the fact that he was defeated when he ran for reeelection in 2015 does not negate the fact that he held an inherently notable office for five years before that, either.

- By the way I'm an attorney by profession and majority of my opponents have lost their cases against me is because they are unable to distinguish and interpret the difference one word can make in a clause of a contract or statute. For example in this notability guideline - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes#Politicians it uses the word "CABINET" (please note it says cabinet level are generally regarded as notable) which changes the notability interpretation here because only around 5% of elected legislators in India actually hold a cabinet position. The subject in this case also did not hold any cabinet office and did not receive any SIGNIFICANT coverage.
- The base notability tests for politicians are spelled out at WP:NPOL, not at WP:POLOUTCOMES — the latter is only a summary of established practice in certain special circumstances where interpretation of NPOL tends to be disputed (like some cabinet ministers and city councillors), and is not the sum total of all our inclusion standards for all political offices. The rule is not, and never has been, that people are only notable if they held a cabinet position. Cabinet ministers are notable, yes, which is specifically pointed out in POLOUTCOMES because there are some countries (e.g. the United States) where the cabinet are outside the legislature (and thus some people have erroneously brought US cabinet members to AFD on the grounds that they weren't elected legislators) — but in countries, such as India, Canada and the United Kingdom, where cabinet members are in the legislature, serving in the legislature makes a person notable regardless of whether they were cabinet ministers or just ordinary legislators. If somebody passes NPOL, then they pass NPOL regardless of whether their particular situation is listed in POLOUTCOMES or not, and NPOL does not restrict political notability exclusively to the cabinet. So citing POLOUTCOMES does not make you the guy who gets to drop the mic — NPOL drops the mic on POLOUTCOMES, not vice versa. Bearcat (talk) 22:10, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete - If we are following the Wikipedia guideline then it should be a no-brainer. Guideline clearly says that "Just being an elected local official does not guarantee notability". It also states that the subject should have received SIGNIFICANT coverage to meet the notability guideline. In this case SIGNIFICANT coverage is missing. The candidates party supporters can fill this discussion with a large number of "Keep" count but we need to follow the guidelines set in Wikipedia. Please see this link on notability guideline (last sentence in Politicians and Judeges category) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Politicians_and_judges It is very unfortunate that some of the experienced Wikipedia editors are ignoring the guidelines set by Wikipedia.

- Keep. The Legislative Assembly of Bihar is a state level role that passes NPOL #1, not a "local" role. Yes, the article needs some improvement, but state legislators are not deletable on "local political officeholder" grounds — it's a state legislature, not a "local" legislature. And frankly, considering that participating in this discussion is the IP's first Wikipedia participation ever, I strongly suspect a WP:BADFAITH attempt to erase someone the IP has personal beef with for some reason that's none of Wikipedia's concern. Bearcat (talk) 17:15, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Bearcat: To be fair, the IP addresses used by the anon are all US-based, which is at least one small indication that this isn't a personal thing. I see this as a serious misinterpretation of guidelines mixed with a highly problematic dose of WP:IDHT, but I'm not detecting bad faith here.

Necrothesp, I do see that it awards degrees, but from what I can tell, their degrees are mostly trade certifications/industry group certifications, ie [amazon web services]] certified user, etc. There are many instituitions that grant these degrees, and I don't believe that any of them are by themselves notable per wp:NSCHOOL. I would appreciate your thoughts. Warmest regards, BrxBrx(talk)(please reply with {{SUBST:re|BrxBrx}}) 03:27, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
- Edit: Changed my !vote to delete - searching for the instituition by name doesn't even show any coverage in newspapers or review journals. I can't imagine how a tertiary institution that succeeds under GNG or NSCHOOl could possibly have 0 coverage in unconnected sources. BrxBrx(talk)(please reply with {{SUBST:re|BrxBrx}}) 03:29, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
- I'm puzzled by what you mean. The article lists plenty of degrees up to PhD level! We have always kept degree-awarding institutions. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:22, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Necrothesp, could you point out where it says that this institution grants research PhDs? From what I can tell, the closest thing they offer is a DPharm, which is certainly a professional degree, not a research degree. Warmly, BrxBrx(talk)(please reply with {{SUBST:re|BrxBrx}}) 13:59, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
The school also offers a Ph.D (Doctor of Philosophy)...
But in any case, professional degrees are as valid as general degrees. They are not simply "trade certifications/industry group certifications" as you allege above, but degrees! According to the article, it grants BTech, BPharm, MPharm, MCA, MBA and PhD. Every one of those is a recognised degree, not a trade certification. These (plus others) are confirmed by the college's website. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:37, 25 February 2021 (UTC)- I see the article makes such a claim, but the present website for the instituition has dropped that claim: [22]. At any rate, granting of degrees doesn't necessarily mean it will survive under GNG - pre wp:schooloutcomes, the most important thing that saves an instituition's notability is substantial secondary source coverage - which I simply haven't found evidence for.

- Keep: AFDs should be a last resort. It seems as if a hasty attempt to delete an article that requires some work. The nominator doesn't seem to have verified if the subject meets WP:GNG and did online research. He is a prominent businessman and art connoisseur. He runs an art gallery which is based in Dubai and is the chairman of Alturaash Group. He founded Asif Kamal Foundation in India that works with underprivileged children and their families in the area of education and healthcare. He launched several initiatives to help the needy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Alturaash Art Fund is another initiative to promote artists globally and to provide loans against modern and contemporary art. He has been discussed in numerous mainstream newspapers. I recreated this page only because he has received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources since the last AFD, including [23][24][25] [26] and meets WP:GNG.SKSaqib (talk) 11:01, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete I tend to agree with M4DU7 that it's likely at least one of the sources are paid. That in turn brings greater suspicion of other sources. If you look at Angela Paljor, the New Indian Express article author for the source in the article, you will find her other articles contain gems like "Hair care offerings to tackle monsoon frizz", which is clearly an ad for Schwarzkopf Professional Keratin Smooth Perfect Range. The article descriobes the product and uses quotes from "Melissa Hughe, National Technical Head, Schwarzkopf Professional". It's an ad. Or, examine "Banking on home service and client loyalty", where the services of numerous hair salons in the Shahnaz Husain Group are described. Quotes in the article are from "Shahnaz Husain, Founder, Chairperson and Managing Director of The Shahnaz Husain Group".
- One of the sources included in the first version of the article was "Asif Kamal has made name in the Indian Art Industry" from thestatesman-dot-com. It has the byline "SNS Web", which I believe equates to press release distribution. Anyway, I can't link it here because it is in the spam blacklist. And so on... Possibly (talk) 21:42, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
Comment I would like to mention few important points here with not agreeing on Possibly's argument about his claim for the paid article based on assumptions, first of all, The New Indian Express is a pre Independence established and credible media house in India, having an in-depth article about someone doesn’t mean it’s a paid article and also we know that the paid and sponsor article are allowed in the media houses and they do the paid article with the disclaimer on it and it’s not a hidden story. Claiming about an editor who’s expert on writing about art and culture mostly that she is a paid editor based on a few articles which have an in-depth discussion about product or profile. I can see not all the references mentioned on the page is from the same agency, same editor, I can see references from 2014 onwards in different agency and a different storyline about this person and he is in the media from 2014 onwards regularly. For the sake of argument, If an editor has done a few paid articles also in her editorial journey doesn’t mean all of her articles are paid?

Cannot find reliable, extensive second party coverage. Google news shows nothing [27], beyond placed advertisements on news articles. Likely a non-notable per WP:NCORP. Sources currently cited are press releases from the Times group, and a piece from the Economic Times covering the acquisition. The claim about the number of webhits per day is completely uncited, and I cannot find any secondary source to support the assertion.
In making this, I applied from NCORP this analysis on the sources I found, and on the sources in the article itself:
Source | Significant? | Independent? | Reliable? | Secondary? | Pass/Fail | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
The Economic Times | Coverage about the acquisition by the Times group | |||||
MensXP.com | Self-description | |||||
Press release from the Times group | Press releases are not considered reliable secondary sources | |||||

- Comment - Travancore-Cochin cricketers are a weird beast. There are images of TC cricketers in their advanced age on their CA articles. I wonder if this means that there is further information in non-Internet printed sources that we would be unable to get our hands on. It must have been that they had a get-together when they were much older, though we have no way of knowing when the images were taken. Bobo. 21:06, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete nothing here even close to passing GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:27, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
- Forgive me for repeating my argument from the other TC page. There must be non-Internet printed sources somewhere - these players' profiles include photos that were taken later in life, presumably during the Internet age and certainly in a context where they would probably also be used in print media. CA makes no indication of where these images come from other than calling the source CricPhotos, which I can't find anywhere which cites who they are. Bobo. 21:39, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

- Weak Delete as notability is not evident. Bobo192 makes a curious point in reference to the original AfD over 10 years ago, and although there was a slight keep pile-on back then, I don't see any evidence that notability has been established in the time passed. Although observing the guidelines set out per WP:CRIN, I don't see how this article could be developed or determine the subject as being notable. Bungle (talk • contribs) 10:16, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- The odd thing is that, unlike many others which have been put forward for deletion, this player has played within (most of) our lifetimes. I wonder if this makes it more possible that print sources are available to those who have access to archives. I mean this in the nicest way possible, but of all the articles put up to AfD, this is probably the least appropriate player to make this argument for. This guy has played within our lifetimes.

- It isn't totally out of the question that print/book sources may exist, but simply assuming they do doesn't mean they do.

Is there any coverage of Koso in other languages that might go into a bit more detail about him?.” I am sure that the article can be improved in the coming days.

- Keep or Merge to V. V. S. Laxman. Lists of international centuries are, by definition, notable achievements and detailing significant numbers in prose alone is cumbersome and impairs readability, so tables are the way to go. These lists have the necessary context and explanation so do not fail NOTSTATS. Having said that, there are no issues with inclusion in the main subject article, per WP:NOTSTATS and WP:SPLIT, so a merge would be appropriate. wjematherplease leave a message... 09:46, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete with the option of some prose and, possibly, a much cut down summary version of these tables added to the player's page. We don't need to be clogging up biographies with massively complex tables of statistics when we could summarise - and perhaps usefully use a table at that time. Perhaps it could replace the utterly pointless table that is already in the player's article? Blue Square Thing (talk) 17:51, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Keep: Based on my searches I assess this to be a notable school. Walrus Ji (talk) 13:59, 26 January 2021 (UTC)- Keep: Navodaya schools is a network of schools funded by the central government in India. There is one such school in every district and provides free education to meritorious students in every district. The school used to have a dedicated website but now the government decided to have a single website for all schools, possibly to not drain government funds on domain fees. The absence of a dedicated website might have caused this confusion that this might not be a notable school, which is not the case. These schools, in most cases, are the best public schools in every district. I just noticed several schools listed in List of Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas have their wiki pages being removed by some self-righteous editors who are doing a huge disservice to this encyclopedia and are wasting the time of several editors who have contributed to these pages. Most information added in these pages might get irrecoverably lost due to the such irresponsible activism. Aravind V R (talk) 14:33, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

None of the sources in the article are IS, BEFORE showed nothing that meets SIGCOV and no sources have been provided above. Article does not meet NBUILD, "…they require significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability." There is basic, run of the mill, routine, normal, coverage, the type all schools receive in local press.

- It is unclear how the name used by the reviewer would have any bearing on the review. The second article shows that the movie was successful, and coupled with the fact that the movie had a famous set of cast and crew, it is evident that the movie had more reviews in its time. If you may, you can check for any of the recent movies of the cast and crew, all of whom are probably past their prime, to understand the amount of press coverage their movies generate. Just because none of our fellow editors, including me has any incentive in going to newspaper offices to check for newspapers that came at that time, to look for reviews and other write-ups about the movie, doesn't mean we delete all the articles that pre-dated the internet boom in India, and were made in WP:AGF.

- Strong Keep: I was able to find a review from Times of India [33]. And Kolma8 (talk · contribs), please make sure you nominate the old films for AFD carefully the next time. I happened to see you nominating some movies without doing very thorough WP:Before. Most of the low rated old movies you are nominating for AFD actually has theatrical release. Sadly sources does exist and we cannot keep here and I totally agree with it. But while you nominate some movies where there are some high profile casting involved, you can have some detailed WP:Before. This case itself, sources exist, but its hard to find. So please take some time and if you dont know Malayalam language, its then more hard to find sources. Since these are old movies, its really really hard to find sources. And some recent sources are available in malayalam language. Happy editing Kichu🐘 Discuss 12:23, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Kashmorwiki (talk · contribs), thank you for your input and appreciate your effort in saving the article. I wasn't able to find a review from Times of India at the link you have provided. It is merely an IMDB-like entry. Please make sure to provide an actual review that will satisfy WP:NFO, "full-length reviews by ... nationally known critics." I really still don't see the subject of the article meeting WP:NFILM and/or WP:GNG, but do respect opinions of the community. Thank you again... R., Kolma8 (talk) 20:52, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- Kolma8 (talk · contribs), WP:NFILM clearly says that in cases where its hard to find sources and establish notability, we consider other option. If the film features significant involvement by a notable person and is a major part of his/her career, then its considered notable. According to a reliable source Times of India and some other ones, some of the major personalities in Malayalam film industry is a part of this film and had a theatrical release which makes it notable by virtue. And about the link I have provided, we don't look whether it is an IMDB like review; We are only considering whether the source is reliable or not. I hope you know Times of India is one of a reliable source here.. Kichu🐘 Discuss 06:19, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
- Found more sources: Kolma8 (talk · contribs), Since you asked me whether I can show sources, I took some time I dont have because this is clearly a disapppinting nomination for me. So please have a look at all of these. I found more than 5 sources. [34]. This one establishes the movie had theatrical release. And please see [35]. The article mentions that The actress Kavya has also revealed her penchant for comedy through movies like Meesa Madhavan, Kochi Rajavu and Paapy Appacha. See this one [36]. The opening sentence itself says this is conidered as one of the best comedy movies by actor Dileep. And if you want more, please see [37] This one says Veteran Malayalam actor Geetha Salam who has acted in several super hit films such as Gramaphone, Kochi Rajavu... And see this one [38], this one [39] and [40]. (Please have some time to read it or you wont find anything). All these sources confirms that the movie was a major blockbuster and is notable. I hope these ones satisfies you now. So I just want to say one thing to you. You may not get sources for old movies that covers entirely about that movie. But you will surely get lot of sources like this. WP:GNG says multiple sources can be combined together to establish notabilty. And in cases of old movies, this is a big point to consider. You will surely get sources like this if you are doing a very good WP:Before. And if you are short of time for this, then please dont nominate for AFD unnecessarily unless you are sure it dont have sources. Instead you can tag with some notability tag or something like that.

- Tentative Keep as the book (or the chain of events itself) looks to be notable. There may not be ready references available online as it happened in 1980s India. However, the article contains important information and I cannot think of a reason to delete it. The book seems to be there in quite a few libraries. Although religious conflicts are common in India, it is relatively uncommon in West Bengal compared to other states. This book/event seems to be a contrary example.

- Keep as per the reliable sources coverage identified in this discussion which shows a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view. The First Post retrospective review is particularly convincing imv Atlantic306 (talk) 02:11, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

The result was keep. Some early delete votes are based on issues that were later fixed. The remaining issue is notability. For notability, there is a weak consensus to keep. Considering the discussion has been relisted twice, has gone on for 27 days, and some people have been notified explicitly, closing it as keep.

Page on a new research institute created by an SPA that has disclosed on talk page a COI as an employee of the institute. The text of the page is an unambiguous copyvio of [44]. WP:BEFORE search shows passing coverage in The Economic Times and press release type coverage more broadly. Nominating because 1) I am skeptical that this meets the bar of significant coverage. 2) Any notability that there is looks to me to be very marginal, and the article is in such poor shape that WP:TNT applies. 3) The paid COI editor should anyway not be making the inclusion decision. Past institutions organized under the Department of Science and Technology (India) have not always been found to be notable. Pinging @Discospinster: who draftified another instance of the page; @Dan arndt and Gpkp: who declined AfC on that version; @Phil Bridger: who removed my improperly-applied speedy tag.

Delete No sources, no categories, no evidence of notability, created by a COI editor, copyvio... This is not a Wp article.GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 19:05, 23 January 2021 (UTC)- Speedy delete. It seems that this is a clear copyright violation, so is eligible for speedy deletion under a different criterion from the one I contested. If this is found not to be a copyright violation then my recommenation is delete as non-notable. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:20, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete This article is very problematic. WP:TNT applies per nom. JayJayWhat did I do? 00:50, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
Merge if not keep with Department of Science and Technology (India).Strong Keep This is a legitimate Govt. of India organisation. I feel the article is rather a stub which needs improving. Here's some link from quick search.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] RationalPuff (talk) 14:52, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

- comment Changed my vote as I improved the stub somewhat but I'm sure it cam be improved further. I urge all editors to reconsider their opinion and possibly also can help improving the stub further. Thanks. RationalPuff (talk) 15:30, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- I agree that redirect to Department of Science and Technology (India) could be a sensible alternative to deletion here. I'm not convinced that any of the sources you provided, most of which were glancing mentions, constitute WP:SIGCOV. I remain concerned about copyright: the license [45] does not appear to be compatible with Wikipedia licensing. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 21:22, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- I don't think that the statement, "this is subject to the material ... not being used in a derogatory manner or in a misleading context", is compatible. But if enough has now been changed then the copyright issue is a matter for revision deletion, rather than deletion of the whole article. Of course we are still left with deciding notability. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:09, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
The text copied into the article by the COI editor is still there, although an interested editor could certainly rewrite it. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 06:16, 27 January 2021 (UTC)Now fixed. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 11:00, 27 January 2021 (UTC)- potential copyright issue has been eliminated. I have no doubt about the nobility of the subject. There are 1000s of search results about the subject of which several are reliable and significant coverage. However, as I said before it needs volunteers to improve upon the content. It will be a loss to the project trying to delete or even redirecting. RationalPuff (talk) 11:08, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

- I'm happy to change the delete vote implicit in my nomination to redirect per WP:CHEAP. I think that the case for keeping is still a bit weak, but I don't think TNT applies anymore, and there's room for reasonable people to disagree. @Cupper52, GhostDestroyer100, and JayJay: what do you think about the improvements and case for notability made by RationalPuff?
