Draft:Rahul Megh Arya Page

Can we put this one to rest? Will this ever have a chance to meet WP:ENT? It's been created and recreated multiple times with sourcing supposedly from different places, but they are all referring to the same press release statement. It's also been CSD G11'ed multiple times, and still comes back, but can't CSD G4 unless there's consensus it will never be notable, and it's not G5 because the IP hops.

delete as WP:PROMOTION. The sources are non independent and low quality. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:20, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as blatant promotion. Notice that this is named Draft:Rahul Megh Arya Page and not Draft:Rahul Megh Arya, because the correct title has already been salted in draft space due to repeated creation. That warrants a G4 of this as a blatant attempt to game the system. Recommend also implementing a Title Blacklist regexp to prevent further gaming of the system.

Comment t0 User:AngusWOOF - The salting in draft space is the admin determination that it never will be notable. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:59, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Robert McClenon, this is NOT true. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:02, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- User:SmokeyJoe - Whatever the reason, it looks like sufficient basis for a G4. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:07, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - It can’t be G4-ed without a prior AfD. A persistent vandal can justify a salting without reference to the very difficult question of potential notability. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:13, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Note - The IP removed the MFD tag and resubmitted the draft yet again. I have reverted to the version tagged for MFD by AngusWOOF, and have requested semi-protection of the draft so that the IP will not disrupt this debate. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:07, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- For a proposed solution to unregistered editing, see WP:Village pump (policy)#Require registration. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:16, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Per RFPP, I have semiprotected the Draft:Rahul Megh Arya Page. No objection if another admin wants to take further steps, such as those suggested above. EdJohnston (talk) 03:37, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Finding a range block that would cover all this editor's IPs, I have blocked Special:Contributions/2402:8100:2100::/40 one month for edit warring and promotional editing. The block can be lifted if they will will agree to follow our policies and edit with a stable identity. EdJohnston (talk) 00:27, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and salt. Dunno why this wasn't speedy deleted, I think G11 applies pretty clearly here. Captain Eek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 17:33, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Not G11 because there are references that are not obviously unsuitable. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:19, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete this draft should've never been created.Catfurball (talk) 21:16, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete per above. Is there a speedy criteria that applies to obvious salt evasion? Maybe there should be. -Crossroads- (talk) 13:17, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
