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.

I believe this non-profit organization fails the WP:ORG guidelines due to a lack of verifiable significant impact. Being a NGO does not, of itself, demonstrate notability. Apart from the one tangential mention in the Calcutta Telegraph article, I have been unable to find other sources using Google News. Fæ (talk) 17:42, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A chain with only seven outlets after five years trading. Two sources, the first of which is clearly taken from a press release, the second is far from being a dispassionate review (the author appears to be a True Believer in kook health food, note comments on "memory booster").

Fails the notability requirements as there is no evidence of significant impact. Holding senior positions is not of itself notable unless the person has some impact on society.

Unsourced biography of an translator with some publications and translations to his credit. Prod contested after deletion, brought here because there does not seem to be sufficient independent coverage on himself. Tikiwont (talk) 15:02, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete unless sources added. From googling, the person seems to likely be marginally notable [1], but allowing an article to stay forever as a completely unsourced BLP is obviously not acceptable. --B (talk) 15:49, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete just went through all the links, half of them are dead and the rest merely establish that he stood and lost in an election.

- Comment. The nomination, and the delete opinion above, do not explain why the sources in the article are inadequate for demonstrating notability. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:28, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Week Keep - she won one reality singing show for kids in Tamil Nadu in one channel. To my knowledge there are atleast three such shows running in Tamil channels. Previous winners of this show (both adult and children formats) have gone nowhere (no record deals, solo albums etc) except performing stage shows /promotional events for the same channel. News coverage dies out after the season is over. But it is not clearly the case here. She has an existing singing career - a 2004 album and professional singing tours --Sodabottle (talk) 06:53, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- This is a perfect Nomination & sure not the right one , if we keep having articles with less or no info;s then why a set of rules ? .....this article fails notability ...--Doctor muthu's muthu wanna talk ? 21:03, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- again, this is supposed to be a discussion about whether the article subject meets Wikipedia's inclusion guidelines, which are based on whether there is significant coverage in reliable sources. Please explain how the sources in the article are insufficient rather than saying "just not notable". Phil Bridger (talk) 21:58, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There appear to be claims of notability, but as this is written so poorly it's really hard to tell. But no sources, and there are none that I can find using this name. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 01:41, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP is not a directory or a travel guide. Codf1977 (talk) 15:31, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep there are lots article like List of hotels of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway, List of largest hotels in the world, List of hotels in Dubai, List of Las Vegas Strip hotels and so on, Also there are more than 50% of names in the list having there own articles. If anything is required to make this article more suitable let me know, I will improve it. KuwarOnline Talk 15:48, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep It is pretty well referenced and everything there is verifiable. Only notable hotels are on the list and for having over thirty hotels on that list, it shows that it is obviously a notable topic. Tavix | Talk 17:20, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- If it was only notable hotels then you may have a point - but it is not. Codf1977 (talk) 17:24, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Most of them are notable. Just because a couple of them are redlinked does not make my point invalid. Redlinks help article growth... Tavix | Talk 20:22, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- The comment below notwithstanding, removing non-notable entries can be done by editing, and therefore it is not a valid reason to delete, per deletion policy.--Cyclopiatalk 18:19, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - KuwarOnline (talk · contribs) is currently attempting to votestack by canvassing editors (like me) that would probably argue for keeping (I would do in fact, but now that I've been canvassed I feel uncomfortable doing that): see [3] , [4], [5], [6]. I think the editor is somehow in good faith in seeking for help, but better to explain him that he's just shooting himself in the foot this way. --Cyclopiatalk 18:17, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment -I was doing what called Friendly notices not only editor who supported keep but also the editors who supported delete see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Software Companies in India but unfortunately you just noticed keep editors see User talk:Sodabottle, User talk:Deepak D'Souza who supported delete Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Software Companies in India, Certainly I am not doing attempting to votestack or neither I asked any editor to vote in my favor. Just asked to vote as per there view please see there talk pages, where i m requesting them to express there suggestions/opinion. Please dont feel that you are being canvassed. KuwarOnline Talk 18:55, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment notwithstanding the alleged votestacking- I am kind of neutral, swaying towards delete on articles with names in the following format "List of <type of business> in <city>". IT industry in India is a different thing. The best thing to do is to write an article called Hotels in Mumbai and merge the list to that article. I wouldn't mind a fork if required later.--Nilotpal42 19:14, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - most of them are blue links. --Sodabottle (talk) 19:30, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- But not to articles about the given hotels :
- Of the 41 Hotels listed only FIVE have there own article :
- But not to articles about the given hotels :
-
- THREE point to WP articals un-related to India or Mumbai
- Ambassador Hotel - to a hotel in LA
- Palms Hotel - is in Nevada
- The Retreat - is a 'place in England for the treatment of people with mental health needs. '
- THREE point to WP articals un-related to India or Mumbai
-
- THIRTEEN point to articles about the company that owns the hotel.
- the other EIGHTEEN hotels listed have no links or a 'red-links'. Codf1977 (talk) 22:45, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Nice, but again, deletion policy tells us that this is absolutely not a reason to delete. At best, your analysis indicates the need to merge into a larger list, like List of hotels in India. All you tell us about is that the article has problems. We don't delete article which have problems solvable with editing -we fix them. --Cyclopiatalk 00:33, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I did look for a page as a suitable merge target but there was not one - and felt that editing out the non-notable hotels and having a list of five or six and then nom for AfD would be bad form. If some one with more insight into the subject wishes to create such a target will be happy with mergeing into it. Codf1977 (talk) 06:52, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep but clean up. See WP:STAND. The references are all links to the hotels and should be removed.GtstrickyTalk or C 22:50, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment No opinion on the merits of this article other than the fact that it should clearly cite which standards are being used. Which organizations gave these hotels five-star ratings? ThemFromSpace 17:48, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge information about the hotels and hotel chains in the city into Economy of Mumbai, but delete the star ratings. This page is a travel guide as it is currently constituted (something Wikipedia is not), and it is difficult to imagine how it could be rewritten to be anything other than a travel guide. On the other hand, the city's hotels are a notable element of the local economy that can appropriately be listed in the "Economy" article, but the star ratings are purely "travel guide" content that does not belong there. --Orlady (talk) 19:14, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keepbut star rating should be removed.It's just an informative article, not any travel guide.Everybody please take a look at List of hotels in Dubai.It's just same kind of article like List of hotels in Mumbai.If it is kept on Wikipedia, then List of hotels in Mumbai must be kept.$Max Viwe$ (talk) 05:34, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak Keep per the apparent Universal record deal. Doc Quintana (talk) 04:33, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- As far as I can tell, it's the television station Zee Marathi that has the contract with Universal, not this lady. (See here). The station's put together a number of compilation albums using content from its television shows, and Ms Vaishampayan has appeared on the compilations in this capacity. But Vaishampayan herself doesn't appear to have any particular recording contract. - DustFormsWords (talk) 06:46, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Even if this is true for the "Pancharatna" Album, Aathawa Swar is a completely new album, Zee Marathi has nothing to do with it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Prabodh1987 (talk • contribs) 12:02, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep Hi, She has sung for NDTV Imagine dialy Soap 'Kaashi'. Titles show her name as only lead singer. She has recorded songs for two marathi movies so far. Name of one movie is "Let'z Go". Recently Universal Music Launched new Album "Aathawa Swar" (आठवा स्वर) where Mugdha has sung 3 songs. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/litala-cempasa-albama-athava-svara/122417764459106 See the coverage of this Album Launch by leading Marathi News Channel STAR MAZA (स्टार माझा) from STAR INDIA Network. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aTRybZ8uCo 216.10.193.21 (talk) 07:13, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Please see our policy on reliable sources. To establish notability for this singer (and thereby save her article from deletion) you are required to provide significant coverage in reliable independent sources.

KeepWP:Music guidelines - Criteria for musicians and ensembles
"9. Has won or placed in a major music competition. 10. Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that article.) 11. Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network. 12. Has been the subject of a half-hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network."
Mugdha had participated and broke into top 5 finalists in TV show Idea SARGEMA on Zee Marathi which had highest TRP rating in music reality shows so far. (9,12) She was aired on television from July'08 t0 Feb'09.(9,12)
Even today, 3-4 hour programmes of their concert tours are shown on Marathi channels like Zee Marathi, SAAM, Star Maza and Mi Marathi.(9,12)
Till date, Mugdha was interviewed and appeared on Radio Channels like Radio Surabhi Satelite, 98.3 FM radio Mirchi, 91.1 FM Radio One, All India Radio, Mumbai.(11)
She has sung for NDTV Daily soap. She was part of seven albums. पंचरत्न भाग १,२,३. गर्जती सह्याद्रीचे कडे, जय हरी विठ्ठल, आठवा स्वर, डार्लिंग डार्लिंग (Exclusive her songs). All launched by Universal Music, India.(10)
She has rendered voice for two Marathi movies so far. Name of one movie is 'Let'z Go' and second is un-named. Both will go to floor soon. I will provide links for the same as reference.(10)

Why it is then marked for deletion? Plz revoke the action. Vickstp (talk) 07:33, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Nothing need to be said and done after the arguments put down here by Vickstp. Mugdha is enormously popular in Maharashtra. Even today, after 2 years she participated in the reality show, Mugdha performs in live shows all over Maharashtra. Mugdha was a part of the Celebrity Tour to Europe by Kesari Tours. Mugdha has performed in numerous shows. You will find the details of some of them in the article itself. She was invited to Dubai for a live show. Prabodh 11:48, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep What Vickstp said is quite convincing. If we could have a Google news archive search done in the native language, perhaps we'd find more results. Has anyone who speaks this language looked through her official site, or searched the Wikipedia for that language for leads on more information? Dream Focus 23:23, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- We've generally held non-winning American Idol / So You Think You Can Dance etc contestants to be non-notable in the absence of them having done anything else of particular note; there's nothing in the material identified so far that suggests this lady is any different. - DustFormsWords (talk) 23:44, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The article says, as does Vickstp statement above, that she has done a theme song that is shown before notable shows [8]. I don't know what American Idol contestants you are referring to, but were these people that bombed and didn't get a record deal, or those that went on to do something that got noticed? Does that show get some people who can't sing just to humiliate them? Those people aren't notable, but some of the losers go on to make notable albums and get plenty of reviews for their work.

This official website link mentioned above says " These L’ll Champs are no ordinary folk. They were in Prasanthi Nilayam on a personal invitation from Bhagawan Himself. Impressed by their natural talent show at Hadshi, Bhagawan had asked them to come to Puttparthi to perform in Prasanthi Nilayam. …And one could not wait for a better opportunity than the auspicious occasion of celebrating His Divine Advent. A tiny tot in the group, cute champ Mugdha Vaishampayam was at her best singing melodiously, enacting to her best. Singing the famous number “Sai Tero Naam Easwar Tero Naam…” in His presence, with a pointer at Him as Allah, was a feast to the eyes and ears and the crowd went ecstatic, swaying to the tunes in merriment. Every song was received with thunderous relentless applause." Vickstp (talk) 10:23, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak Keep I have removed the obvious copyvio (while a lot of the rest looks like a copyvio, I couldn't locate the source). This still appears like it is an advert — but this is not a reason to delete. The article needs work to make it encyclopedic, but again, that is not a reason to delete. The ratings linked to at Business India (whose criteria for inclusion states "The survey is generally restricted to institutions approved by AICTE or recognized by the UGC." (see http://www.bibschoolsurvey.com/FAQ.htm), and this institution is recognised by UGC — see below), Competition Success Review, and the Dalal Street Investment Journal would seem to indicate notability. Secondary Schools, Colleges and Universities are generally counted as notable, as long as their existence can be proven (which it can by the above links). Accreditation is also useful (although some unaccredited institutes may be notable), and this page at their website says:
- NSB-NIILM School of Business is having Educational Accreditation with the following UGC recognized Universities:
- NSB-NIILM School of Business (Centre Code No. 1148) is an authorized centre of "Guru Jambheshwar University of Science & Technology, Hissar" UGC Recognized, HRD Ministry approved and "A" Grade NAAC Accredited for running MBA course in July Batches.
- NSB - NIILM School of Business (Centre Code No. 2269) is an authorized centre of "Maharishi Dayanand University, Rohtak" UGC Recognized, HRD Ministry approved and "B++" Grade NAAC Accredited for running MBA Course in Jan Batches.

Delete. Non notable person. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:36, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I lean slightly in favor of deletion. I created the article (in a different, earlier form) because somebody had inserted bio into the article Kripalu, where it was an irrelevant digression.
- Can't find high-quality sources on this person, and there were some very questionable edits, possibly made by fanatical devotees. I've abandoned ship.
- On the other hand, am philosophically an "inclusionist," and don't see harm in having available a lousy article about an obscure person.
