Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/India

Shortcuts

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.

Miss You (film)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is about an unreleased film which does not satisfy film notability. Unreleased films are only notable if production itself has received significant coverage by reliable sources. A review of the sources shows that they are all announcements or press releases about the film or its songs. The first five references, in four different media, are essentially identical, which is best explained that they are the same press releases to different media.

Reference Number	Reference	Comments	Independent	Significant	Reliable	Secondary
1	The Hindu	States that movie will be filmed.	No. 1 through 5 are the same, and so are a press release.	Not for this purpose	Yes	Yes
2	cinemaexpress.com	States that movie will be filmed.	No. 1 through 5 are the same, and so are a press release.	Not for this purpose	Yes	Yes
3	thesouthfirst.com	States that movie will be filmed.	No. 1 through 5 are the same, and so are a press release.	Not for this purpose	Yes	Yes

5	The Hindu	Same as 1	No. 1 through 5 are the same, and so are a press release.	Not for this purpose	Yes	Yes
6	timesnownews.com	States that movie will be filmed.	Probably.	Not for this purpose	Yes	Yes
7	Times of India	Passing mention of a song.	Maybe	No. Passing mention.	No	Yes
8	cinemaexpress.com	Press release about a song.	No.	No	Yes	Yes
9	cinemaexpress.com	Another press release about a song.	No.	No	Yes	Yes
10	news18.com	An announcement about the film.	Probably.	Not for this purpose.	Yes	Yes

There is also a draft; the draft and the article are by different authors. The information in this article and in the draft can be merged in the draft, and the draft can be submitted, with reviews and other quality sources, when the film has been released and reviewed.

Because release is announced for late November, I would normally have suggested to keep this and I would have merged the draft into it .....but there are TWO drafts Draft:Miss You Movie (created yesterday, just before the article, same creator) and Draft:Miss You (film) by User:Gowthamaprabu (created 21. 10); the latter was declined by the nom. Read the following comment: "Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Miss You (film) instead.", said the nom of the present AfD when declining the page.....which, if I was the page creator, would make me think, the page discussed here is not concerned by deletion! Still as Gowthamaprabu's Draft was the first page to be created, I consider it should be the starting point so I suggest a merge of all three pages into Draft:Miss You (film). Premise is known, actors are notable, coverage for verification exists, so even if it's the other way around, I won't be shocked but declining the Draft and inviting its creator to expand a page and, an hour later or so, taking the said page to AfD is a bit confusing.Mushy Yank (talk) 22:42, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Robert McClenon and @Mushy Yank! Hope you're both doing well! I wanted to provide some context regarding the article Miss You (2024), which covers the upcoming film set for release at the end of November 2024. As mentioned transparently, I have been commissioned by the producers to edit and create content for this article, ensuring accurate representation of the movie. I’ve Confirmed that the official release date is November 29, 2024, though due to a lack of publicly available citations, I haven't specified the date in the article itself. I’ve included all available information with relevant citations, and I believe the content is accurate and complete as presented. If possible, I'd suggest we retain the article and continue to improve it together. We could even consider merging it with Draft: Miss You (Film) by User:Gowthamaprabu to consolidate information.

Daveed (2025 film)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Unreleased film, nothing especially notable about the production, therefore does not meet WP:NFILM, specifically WP:NFF, as an as yet unreleased film. Should have remained in draft space but has been moved back to main space, so deletion is required. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 17:55, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can see many upcoming movie articles on Wikipedia, and as an editor who enjoys creating and editing movie articles, I’m particularly focused on the Indian film industry. My goal is to reach 10,000 edits and become a strong contributor to Wikipedia. Recently, I encountered a deletion nomination for an article on an upcoming film, even though its release date has been announced. I removed the "unreleased" category and added the "upcoming films" category since the shoot and post-production are complete. I’ve verified all the data through news articles, and everything seems accurate. This is the first time I've faced a deletion nomination for a film article, and I’m feeling a bit helpless. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Arjusreenivas (talk) 18:14, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And regarding the notbaility of prodcution, The film was distributed by Century Films which is the distributer of Malaikottai Vaaliban, Perumani and John Luther etc. These are the details I got from the producers social handles. Arjusreenivas (talk) 18:30, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Notability" would rather be established through sources independent of the subject. (Not saying that what you are saying is not true nor that it is not interesting) Mushy Yank (talk) 22:46, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Thank you for your Participation in this Discussion, Please Check sources, I think the article have more than enough sources. Arjusreenivas (talk) 03:07, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing about the production, as stated, is notable. Everything is very, very standard. WP:NFF is clear: Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines. Basically, you should not be creating articles in main article space about the vast majority of films that have not yet released. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 10:19, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Antony_Varghese#Films: listed there; given existing coverage, the fact that filming is wrapped, the cast, notable and details about productions are verifiable, I am not opposed to Keep if other users agree it can be kept (opposed to deletion, not necessary in the present case). Mushy Yank (talk) 22:50, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Mushy Yank. Yes, I believe this article is relevant to keep on Wikipedia because the release date has been announced, and the film has already wrapped. Therefore, deletion would not be the right decision. Thank you for your comment. Arjusreenivas (talk) 03:13, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: The film has successfully completed its production phase, and reliable sources confirm that it is currently in the post-production and marketing stages, with only the final release pending. The project meets 4 out of 5 of the WP:NFF production guidelines. Sufficient information is available to justify an independent article, and it can be classified under the "2025 films, Upcoming films, Upcoming Malayalam-language films" category.--— MimsMENTOR ^talk 07:35, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Plunder of Murshidabad (1742)

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

First of all, the article is written in the form of a fan-made story, attempting to villainize an entity (or perhaps show off? There are numerous instances in articles about Indian military history where users have included shocking or vulgar acts committed by militants).
WP:CITEKILL has made source analysis more complex, but once unreliable sources were cleared, the analysis became much easier. The article clearly fails to meet WP:GNG, as well as old sources falling under WP:RAJ and WP:AGEMATTERS have widely been used (caused the reason for the put down of the last proposal, and i was on a break)

Analysis:

The New Cambridge Modern History Vol. 7 (1713-63)* by Lindsay, J. O., Ed:

The book only mentions "Murshidabad" once, with the context found in the parent article on Maratha invasions of Bengal.

The same applies to *The Marathas - Cambridge History of India (Vol. 2, Part 4)* by Stewart Gordon;

It mentions the event alongside the "Maratha invasions of Bengal," which, indeed, should also be referenced here. A separate article is not warranted for this event, as it is a minor occurrence within a larger conflict—specifically, a plunder. Such events do not meet the minimum notability standards. In fact, an entire page from a reliable source is missing in this case. Additionally, the use of a military conflict infobox is unnecessary here, as it follows the same problematic pattern seen with articles like "Battle of X" or "X-Y Wars" in Indian military history. This approach has caused numerous issues. In conclusion, the article fails to meet notability standards and is poorly written. The content could easily be integrated into the parent article instead.

Yamadheera (2024 film)

Redirect to Kempegowda 2 removed several times by user. This is the only article created by that user.

See the discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Film/Indian_cinema_task_force#Dubbed films do not get articles. Dubbed films do not get articles in any circumstances. The icing on the cake is that the last Zee News source upon translating in English says that It was made as a Kannada movie with Shankar as the director. Recently this film is being released in Telugu with the title Yamadhira. The original text was శంకర్ దర్శకుడిగా చేస్తూ కన్నడ సినిమాగా తెరకెక్కించారు. తాజాగా ఈ చిత్రాన్ని తెలుగులో యమధీర టైటిల్‌తో విడుదల చేస్తున్నారు.

The 5th source (TFPC) despite being potentially unreliable also confirms the same. Yamadheera is a Kannada film made by Vedala Srinivas as producer and Shankar as director. Our Telugu actors Nagababu, Madhusudan, Ali and Satya Prakash are acting in this movie.

Sources given are not indication of notability: the first two are from the company itself, while the third repeats a company statement, and the last two are instances of its CEO being quoted in media for unrelated topics. Doing a quick WP:BEFORE, I can find more company announcements/press releases (thehindubusinessline.com, entrepreneur.com), and this article by techinasia.com which still quotes the company's statements to some extent but not as fully as the others.

Delete: The current sources in the article are generally unreliable, except for a Bollywood Hungama video and a Zee News article. However, the Zee News article is about the song “Tu Rooh Mein Samaya” and does not provide significant coverage of the subject.

Despite its creation by a blocked sockpuppet, specifically User:Bhusungk, this political party was founded this year and has not yet participated in any elections. The article currently fails to meet the notability criteria outlined in WP:GNG and WP:NORG. As a newly established regional political organization, it has not made notable contributions to regional or national political landscapes. Most sources are centered on initial news coverage reporting the party’s formation by a well-known actor, lacking substantial analysis or depth regarding the party’s policies, actions, or influence. There is no indication that the party has engaged in any significant political activities or initiatives that would establish its importance. Additionally, no reliable sources provide evidence of public or political recognition or electoral impact that would qualify it as a noteworthy political entity.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 13:49, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It seems like there are several, several English-language mentions of his gymnastics which can be easily searched up (this, this, this, this, this, this, etc.), but none in English that go in depth. I'd have to believe, but do not have the current ability to search and verify, that there are likely many more sources in the subject's native sources. Per the previous rationale, as nom has shared, WP:NGYMNAST is just a suggestion and GNG is what dominates here. In my personal opinion, with the sheer amount of mentions in English of this subject, I'd lean towards the weak keep to give the status quo the benefit of the doubt here.

You can't create an article juxtaposing whichever elements according to whatever criteria you want if sources do not themselves do that: that is original synthesis, a form of original research. If there are reliable sources that themselves compare and contrast these polities according to your criteria then you have to present and cite them, otherwise you are using sources that are focused on each individual polity to draw conclusions and observations that none of them individually make themselves..

Please see the policy I linked multiple times. Again, the problem regards the subject of the article itself, which seems to be entirely synthetic on your part. You can't make an article juxtaposing whatever information you want, even if each individual piece of information is sourced. I would not be allowed to publish History of political entities whose names begin with J because that is not itself a subject established or attested in sources, even if Japan, Jin, and Jalalabad are individually.

Keep meets WP:ANYBIO with a significant award Gladrags Manhunt and Megamodel Contest and represented India in Miss Intercontinental (The winner of Gladrags Mega model represented India at Miss Intercontinental from 1997 to 2003) and ended up as a semi-finalist. She was also a contestant in Bigg Boss and got evicted after 6 weeks. You will get to see a lot of news about her. Added some old references.

Jitujadab90 (talk) 08:22, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We shouldn't rely too heavily on Gladrags Manhunt as a significant award, especially since it itself depends on a single, unreliable source. A search through Google News reveals that the event lacks significance on its own and does not demonstrate notability. Secondly, being a participant on a reality show does not make someone notable. We need better sources that are in-depth, significant, and independent. Charlie (talk) 17:23, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why can't we rely on a contest that is a national contest? Also, Gladrags sends winners as national representatives to Manhunt International, Miss Intercontinental from 1997 to 2003, Miss Tourism International. Aanchal represented India among the top five contestants in the Miss Intercontinental. I also agree that being a participant on a reality show does not make someone notable, but at the same time, it is very difficult to survive 6 weeks on a reality show like Bigg Boss, she must have done a significant job in the show. She also won the celebrity segment of quiz show Baazi Kiski hosted by B-town actor Ashutosh Rana on Zee TV. Jitujadab90 (talk) 20:16, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My friend, Gladrags is primarily a promotional contest and lacks reliable coverage. I have already provided a Google News search result link that clearly explains my concern. Also, being a participant in an international event is quite different from being a winner. If you are able to add substantial information to help the page meet the Heymann standard, please feel free to do so. Charlie (talk) 06:17, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: What do you think of these sources? [10] [11] Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 06:59, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
According to Wikipedia:CITEUNSEEN, the first link from Tribune India is credible, and the article is authored by a staff writer but the coverage appears in Saturday Plus, a supplement rather than the main newspaper. In the second link, Rediff, while also reputable as per CITEHIGHLIGHTER , focuses on being someone's girl friend, which led to its coverage, so I would prefer to skip it. Charlie (talk) 07:38, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Are you implying that coverage from a supplement paper and a source discussing her as someone’s girlfriend does not count towards the GNG? Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 10:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am implying coverage from a supplement paper should be given careful consideration as it may be useful for satisfying verifiability, but may be less useful for the purpose of determining notability. But, the source discussing her as someone’s girlfriend shouldn't be counted. Charlie (talk) 12:38, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can you point to the policy that backs up your statement? Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 12:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Certainly! To partially accept the first source, I will refer to WP:SPONSORED where it clearly states that "merely being published in a supplement is not prima facie evidence of being published in a sponsored supplement. Many, if not most, supplements are perfectly legitimate sources". For not accepting the second source, I will take support of WP:INHERITED. Charlie (talk) 13:05, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You have your answer in the statement you mentioned. Unless you can prove that the source published on November 13, 1999, is a sponsored one, it is completely acceptable for GNG. WP:INHERITED states, "Caution: This section is not a content guideline or policy". Deletion discussions are based on policies and guidelines, not essays.

And fwiw, your interpretation of WP:INHERITED is completely incorrect. Please read the subsequent paragraphs below the example arguments. WP:INHERITED is not applicable here, as no one is arguing that she is notable for being Yuvraj Singh’s rumored girlfriend. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 13:52, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
While essays are not official policies or guidelines, many offer valuable insights and are worth considering. Policies and guidelines may not cover every possible situation, so numerous essays provide interpretations or commentary on community norms for particular topics and scenarios. We may hold differing views, and each perspective has merit. so let’s respectfully agree to disagree. Charlie (talk) 14:38, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: There are numerous reliable sources available, starting from her winning the Gladrags Manhunt and Megamodel Contest up to her recent marriage and childbirth, which can be used to write a well sourced article. WP:INHERITED discusses an instance of a subject assumed to be notable only because it is related to an existing notable subject, which does not apply here. We have coverage that goes back to 1999, from different events in her life. Even if we consider all the coverage from Bigg Boss as one, we still have substantial coverage starting from her pageant victory up to her entry into Bigg Boss, which easily meets GNG. The 2012 deletion discussion was argued on the basis of subject being notable for one event, which is also not applicable, as we have coverage beyond that. Apart from this, Gladrags Manhunt and Megamodel Contest has also survived two AfDs, which means the pageant victory should be considered as significant award or honor, thereby passing WP:ANYBIO. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 15:30, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am having difficulty finding relevant sources on Google search, or perhaps I might be overlooking some like I missed the 1999 Tribune Supplement. Would it be possible for you to provide a source analysis table to aid in? This would be incredibly valuable for me as well as for the assessor regarding my recently concluded NPP training, as my rights application is still pending. Charlie (talk) 12:49, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is no need for a source analysis here. I believe the main issue lies with your nomination, as you cited WP:INHERITED which is commonly used in AfD arguments, not nominations. A recent example of inherited notability could be Alakh Pandey. In this case, Aanchal Kumar is not solely notable for marrying Anupam Mittal, participating in Bigg Boss or winning the Gladrags Manhunt and Megamodel Contest rather her notability comes from all three factors, at this point. Redirecting Aanchal Kumar to either Gladrags Manhunt and Megamodel Contest or Anupam Mittal would result in a significant loss of content, so that's out of the discussion. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 16:21, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Understood! Though I was hoping for a source analysis table, but thank you nonetheless! Charlie (talk) 04:29, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's not how Wikipedia works. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in future elections. If he does win a seat on November 25, then that will become the time that an article about him can be created, but he does not get to have an article just for being a candidate — so it's not "create an article now and hold off on deleting it until after we know whether he wins or loses the election", it's "he has to win the election before an article can be created in the first place".

Per your arguments on the last AFD, [ [12] this is the only good source in the article. To establish GNG, we need atleast three such sources. The rest of the sources including the local ones are mostly paid.

Thilsebatti (talk) 04:19, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Thilsebatti@Mims Mentor Is there some way we're supposed to find out whether a source is paid? Some here seem to be implying that the TOI articles are good but others say they're also paid.

Delete: The content in the article appears promotional as it primarily highlights achievements, accolades, and public recognition, seemingly aimed at enhancing the subject's image. Many of the sources cited resemble paid news articles, as indicated by WP:NEWSORGINDIA. Aside from a controversial elimination from a reality show, the article lacks any notable achievements, with the subject's popularity largely limited to a local fan base in Kerala.--Mims Mentor (talk) 17:35, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Very interesting. RSP says "Editors should ensure that they do not use paid advertorials" for TOI, so is there a way supposed to check for whether a specific article is paid? Aaron Liu (talk) 18:11, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Aaron Liu, Oaktree b. Most news articles from TOI and other reputable sources about the subject tend to have an "overly positive tone," catering primarily to fan-base entertainment. These references frequently emphasize the subject's role as a controversial contestant on a TV reality show, with little mention of any substantial achievements beyond that. This makes the content weak and unlikely to meet the WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG standards. Additionally, some references appear to be mere news versions of the subject’s social media posts, further weakening its credibility as independent sources.--Mims Mentor (talk) 13:47, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But since "achievement" can be hard to determine, only the amount of unbiased coverage may determine notability. I am quite confused about Indian sources and paid coverage now. How can we determine whether a source is paid? Aaron Liu (talk) 13:42, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete:It is evident that the subject does not adhere to the WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR criteria. Only have some routine mentions, and the majority of sources are unreliable.

Keep - Plenty of reliable sources covering the company. APK hi :-) (talk) 10:09, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Source assessment - Most of these sources were evaluated in the previous deletion discussion. However, I evaluated them a second time to either confirm that assessment or not.

1. Forbes India is not Forbes. It must be evaluated with care. This reference was previously assessed and I would agree with that assessment. The reference looks like it was written by the company itself based on the details information, quotes, and use of images and infographics that are promotional to the company.

2. LiveMint - I would not consider this source reliable at all. I can go to Fiverr or Upwork and pay to have my own article written for the publication. Not saying this one is, but do not trust a publication that doesn't always differentiate between paid press and organic press. If it is found to be reliable, this particular reference is similar to the Forbes India one above. Tons of quotes and graphics for the company.

3. Times of India - This is a reference published since the last AfD discussion. Clearly falls under WP:NEWSORGINDIA so not reliable.

4. Forbes India - This one is similar to the other Forbes India reference. However, the promotional tone appears to be from the publication's own research as to why the company won the award. It also appeared in print version so I would say this would be within the rhelm of ORGCRIT.

5. LiveMint - Same as 2.

6. Economic Times - Falls under NEWSORGINDIA. No byline and the first sentence starts with the location the news is coming from, indicating a press release or churnalism.

7. Business Today - Interview which would not meet ORGCRIT

8. Money Control - Same as LiveMint.

I can only see one source that would probably meet ORGCRIT. I also see a heavy push by SPA's and likely COI editors in the previous and current editing. If kept, the page will need cleaned up for NPOV. If deleted, salting may be in order to save time of volunteer editors. If anyone wants to discuss the individual sources assessed above please do so as I may have missed something and will gladly look at any additional information. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:51, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a distinct phenomenon, but rather a local name for swell surge used in coastal Kerala, also known by various names in other parts of the world.

Comment Fair enough, and I agree that this would be better treated as a more general topic, but I note that Swell (ocean) does not actually contain the term "swell surge", and does not seem to cover this type of phenomenon.

Unfortunately, I cannot find a reference to support the award so a citation needed tag would not suffice. The other references are not reliable. The first is a redaction of what was posted on Instagram, the second is WP:NEWSORGINDIA, and the third is all quotes from the subject (it also shows a byline but posted by Odisha Diary Bureau which indicates it could be a paid placement - not assuming it is but not the strongest of sources). --CNMall41 (talk) 18:44, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There has been some misleading promotionalism in this article: in Recognition it said "Forbes magazine named her as the 16th most powerful woman in Asia and the 4th in India in 2016", but she was listed 16th in a list which explicitly states "this list -- which is presented alphabetically and is not intended to be a ranking".

Forbes lists her as the 16th, alphabetically, in a list of 50 most powerful women in Asia which explicitly says that it "is presented alphabetically and is not intended to be a ranking" (even if a Forbes India writer seems to misunderstand this). I corrected the statement in the "Recognition" section, but hadn't noticed that it was also misprepresented in the lead, which I have now corrected. The enthusiasm which some editors have for misrepresenting this listing makes one cautious about other claims, which should all be very carefully checked. PamD 13:06, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
