• Keep: I think we should tag it for better sourcing rather than deleting as there are more sources available online, I did a quick web search and found many reliable sources, for me this passes WP:GNG. -- Pratyush.shrivastava (talk) 10:53, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

• Delete lacks significant coverage in independent reliale sources and there is no evidence of satisfying WP:BIO. GSS ^💬 22:03, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
• Comment, there are enough links of her work, and enough short introductions about her on websites where her articles are posted, but other than say having been a direct survivor of the recent Beirut blast in Lebanon, there is nothing about her. Even GNG seems difficult to meet despite her being a notable journalist. DTM (talk) 13:45, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

• Comment: One of the criteria's for WP:JOURNALIST says "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors." Searching "Anchal Vohra" in Google Scholar shows that she has been cited. (link). Further, searching for "Anchal Vohra" in Google Books shows that her work has been used in books such as Rebuilding Syria (page 125) DTM (talk) 15:04, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

• Comment Journalists are public persons which makes them noteworthy. For example, Sarah Jacob. AltruisticHomoSapien (talk) 09:52, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
• Delete, simply having a job doesn't make one notable. There has to be some indication that sources have written about her, which so far no one has presented. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 00:02, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

• Weak keep, I'd say that she at least has enough coverage to make her meet WP:BASIC. Tayi Arajakate _Talk 04:10, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
• Delete: I see eye to eye with PMC. Almost all the articles cited as references have been written by the subject herself. We need coverage about her NOT by her.--Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 15:23, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
• Keep If it's coverage about her that's required, it's there and it's included in the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AltruisticHomoSapien (talk • contribs) 18:32, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
