Deprodded without rationale, and very little improvement. Might be a case of WP:TOOSOON, but currently doesn't meet either WP:GNG or WP:NACTOR. Also, written in a highly promotional tone. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:26, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

• Keep satisfy WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG. Has independent sources from The Times of India, Deccan Chronicle, Malayala Manorama. He has also a cult following in social media platforms, they are known by the name "Shiyas Army". 137.97.79.204 (talk) 06:46, 5 November 2018 (UTC) comment - SPA IP with only 4 edits, only here and on the subject article.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:28, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
• Keep the article already has a reference and significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, i agree that the article surely need some improvements. satisfy WP:NACTOR as he represented a country in World level competition, participated in popular television reality show and become the finalist as second runner-up, acted in movies and short films etc. ( Hbinu (talk) 11:23, 5 November 2018 (UTC) ) Struck per Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Hbinu. – Athaenara ✉ 04:21, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

• Comment The 137.97.79.204 and 37.245.239.159 users both edits are only on this page related. Could be a sockpuppet situation, I will tag all the people who participated to see. @CAPTAIN RAJU: @Onel5969: @Davey2010: @Spiderone: @LikeMeercats:. Also the first delete which was not signed was by LikeMeercats as seen in the edit history. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 13:30, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

Comment - I agree about the possible socking. I opened a sockpuppet investigation. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:33, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

Agreed and thanks Onel5969 for starting an SPI, My spidey senses tell me this is all one editor so yeah thanks for doing that. –Davey2010^Talk 13:56, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

Comment: there's a handy tag for those, Template:Single-purpose account. – Athaenara ✉ 06:33, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

• Keep The article was edited by some random user that made the article to appear in promotional light. Being the creator of this page, I have made the necessary deletion and corrections with proper references, and I believe that this should be sufficient to keep the article factually relevant.

• Delete or redirect to Bigg Boss Malayalam. Fails WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG. At most, this is WP:BLP1E, but finished 3rd so there is no lasting notability from this. Ravensfire (talk) 20:09, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

• Keep The article has been further updated with recent events(with references) that has happened in Shiyas Kareem's television career. ( Emissaryj (talk) 06:20, 6 November 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emissary j (talk • contribs)

You have already voted Keep, so to avoid confusion I have struck out your previous Keep. GSS (talk|c|em) 06:29, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

• Delete per nom and fails NACTOR and GNG, I redirected this page to Bigg Boss Malayalam per WP:ATD-R as I found it non-notable by WP standard but it was removed by the creator so I'm afraid this will continue. GSS (talk|c|em) 06:50, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

• Comment: The redirect to Bigg Boss Malayalam would only result in a trivial mention of Shiyas Kareem in the article. This article is dedicated to the individual and includes his career and other achievements which would not be available on the page Bigg Boss Malayalam.( Emissaryj (talk) 14:26, 5 November 2018 (UTC) ) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emissary j (talk • contribs)
