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.

S. Ramachandran is a politician who is the secretary of the Tamil Nadu unit of CPIM which is one of the only six national parties of India [This can be soon become one of the only five national parties because BSP is on the verge of losing the status]. Besides the article has some reliable sources and secondary sources and hence it meets the general notability guideline. XYZ 250706 (talk) 13:50, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Besides multiple Wikipedia articles having less citations or having no citations stay on Wikipedia. But it has already 3 reliable sources and secondary sources and more can be added. An improvement tag can be added but deletion is right. XYZ 250706 (talk) 14:09, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

P. Shanmugam (CPIM)

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

Becoming the president of a political party’s state or national unit does not inherently confer notability. The subject fails WP:GNG as no significant coverage has been found beyond the news of their appointment as the state unit president, making it a case of WP:BIO1E. Additionally, the subject fails WP:NPOL as they are not an MLA or MP. GrabUp - Talk 18:49, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Besides P. Shanmugam is the secretary of the Tamil Nadu Unit of CPIM which is one of the only six national parties of India (which can soon be one of the only six as BSP can soon lose the status). XYZ 250706 (talk) 14:01, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional and not important (notable) Indian film director. Nq Wisit (talk) 09:28, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Poor nomination rationale. To start with, if you could mention which sentence is promotional in this article, it would probably take a minute or two to fix it in an article of this size. There is literally nothing promotional in the article, though. WP:DIRECTOR#3 is met here, as Rajkumar Periasamy has created significant or well-known work, or a collective body of work, i.e., Rangoon (2017 Tamil film) and Amaran (2024 film), both of which are the primary subjects of multiple independent reviews.

Aside from the abhorrently formatted title, I was unable to find anything that indicates this passes WP:NEVENT. All sources I could find are breaking news, trial updates and low quality, though there could be more in non-English languages. If kept (I could very well be missing sources, Indian news never shows up in search for me) the common title is something like ""Udupi quadruple murder" and it should be moved to that.

This article don't have any mention about the subject- The link has been updated in the original article to reference IWill GiTA as described by Microsoft.
This is paid/sponsored article.- The article was used to establish Shira's role as the founder of Bharat Bhagya Vidhata Forum. Have added reference where this has been established- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFaTi2CB4Vg. This video is by Indian School of Business's Bharti School of Public Policy.

Delete. The clarifications from User:Jai Mata Di 2024 do not resolve the underlying issue of a lack of coverage in independent sources. The sources identified by User:Ashishdwivedi76 (who is kindly reminded to assume good faith and not denigrate other editors by implying misogyny) do not meet the threshold of WP:GNG either: the first is a Forbes contributor article (WP:FORBESCON) and the second is the same paid PR as the Business Standard article. The remaining two, from Catch News and Zee News, seem to be paid media; as noted in WP:NEWSORGINDIA, paid news (which does not count toward determining notability) is a highly pervasive and deeply integrated practice within Indian news media such that when evaluating Indian print media, we should caution in using such sources for factual claims or to establish notability, looking at the tone, language, and other factors in an article to determine if it is indeed independent coverage, not paid/PR material. The short length and highly promotional tone of the Catch News and Zee News articles leads me to believe that they are also paid PR. WhinyTheYounger ※ Talk 16:14, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that the nomination for the deletion of Madhvi Madhukar’s Wikipedia article under WP:SINGER has raised concerns about her notability. However, I respectfully request a reconsideration of this nomination, as Madhvi Madhukar clearly meets the notability criteria outlined under WP:SINGER. Her article should remain on Wikipedia, and here's why:

1. Extensive Media Coverage from Credible Outlets

Madhvi Madhukar has received significant, verifiable media coverage in respected, national-level outlets, highlighting her importance as both an artist and a public figure. While it’s important to scrutinize the nature of media coverage, it’s equally important to recognize the credibility of the sources involved.

For example, Madhvi’s interview on DD News, a government-run news outlet, demonstrates her contributions to the music industry and her relevance in the broader cultural landscape. You can view the interview here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtR381zOHOc]. DD News is a well-regarded broadcaster, and her presence on this platform is a strong indicator of her notability.

Additionally, leading publications like ANI (Asian News International) and Hindustan Times have published articles featuring Madhvi’s achievements, which go beyond sensationalism. These are not fleeting mentions, but meaningful coverage in reliable media outlets with a strong reputation for reporting on notable figures.

2. Alignment with WP:SINGER Notability Guidelines

The WP:SINGER notability guideline is focused on artists who have received substantial, independent coverage from reliable sources. Madhvi Madhukar’s sustained presence in respected media outlets, including major national platforms, shows that she fits this criterion.

Her media coverage is not just superficial; it reflects ongoing recognition for her contributions to the music industry. Articles from outlets like ANI and Hindustan Times go beyond basic mentions, providing in-depth looks at her work and impact. This kind of sustained attention demonstrates her significance in the field, qualifying her for inclusion under WP:SINGER.

3. Conclusion

While it’s understandable to have questions about notability, it’s clear that Madhvi’s media presence surpasses the threshold set by WP:SINGER. Deleting her article would overlook the credible sources that validate her standing in the public eye and dismiss her genuine impact in the music world.

I would be happy to assist in further improving the article by adding additional citations or expanding the content to provide a more comprehensive overview of her career. Retaining the article would acknowledge her achievements and help document her contributions to the cultural and music landscape.

Thank you for considering this request. I believe that preserving her article is a reflection of Wikipedia’s commitment to documenting notable individuals and their contributions. Redphoenix123 (talk) 07:19, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

RangersRus (talk) 09:30, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the feedback. I would like to address the concerns:

1.Notability (WP:NPOL):

Kambala Srinivas Rao is the President of *Vishwa Hindu Dharma Parirakshana* and joined the BJP in December 2024, a move covered by reliable sources such as OneIndia, The Hans India*, and The New Indian Express. His contributions include cultural preservation and strengthening BJP's presence in East Godavari, which demonstrates political significance.

2. Reliable Sources:

["Vishwa Hindu Dharma Parirakshana president Kambala Srinivasa Rao joins BJP"](https://www.oneindia.com/india/vhdp-rama-sena-president-kambala-srinivasa-rao-joins-bjp-party-strengthens-itself-in-the-rajahmundr-4025853.html)

3. Significance:

His community-focused efforts in temple infrastructure and cultural preservation add to his profile as a social activist.

Given the above, I believe the article meets Wikipedia’s notability criteria (WP:NPOL, WP:GNG). I am open to suggestions for improving the page help out to publish my article without any error Durgaprasadpetla (talk) 11:44, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

These articles do not satisfy WP:GNG as there is insufficient independent and in-depth coverage in reliable sources to justify their existence. The claim of the districts being part of India de jure primarily relies on sources mentioning the Indian government’s release of maps in 2019 depicting the districts as part of India. Separate articles are unnecessary for this aspect, as the existing Mirpur District, Muzaffarabad District and Kashmir conflict articles can address India’s inclusion of these districts on its maps as part of the broader Kashmir dispute.

Delete: Unreliable sources. Lacks notability. Previously deleted article was restored without any discussion. Wikibear47 (talk) 16:42, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: it is common practice in Wikipedia to list the de-jure administrative divisions of countries, even if these are not de-facto the case. Reliable sources support the existence of this administrative division as a de-jure administrative unit within Indian maps. For similar examples, see Mêdog County, Lhünzê County, Taiwan Province, People's Republic of China, and Committee for the Five Northern Korean Provinces. --Rvd4life (talk) 00:39, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
How do these examples apply here? I do not see any duplicate or redundant WP:POVFORKS for Medog County and Lhunze County like the ones you created for Mirpur District and Muzaffarabad District. The example of Taiwan Province is not relevant here as it represents a larger entity, similar to Azad Kashmir. Are there any articles on smaller units of a disputed territory, like the ones you created for these districts, which are smaller parts of a larger disputed region such as Azad Kashmir? Furthermore, the last example you provided pertains to a governing body, not a territory. Why do you believe that creation of the disputed maps by India cannot be addressed within existing articles such as Kashmir conflict, Mirpur District, or Muzaffarabad District? Why is there a need for separate WP:POVFORKS for this? By your reasoning, we should also have articles like Ladakh, Pakistan, Srinagar District, Pakistan, and Baramulla District, Pakistan, etc., as the latter two are smaller units of a larger disputed territory controlled by India. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 17:35, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Simply put, the boundaries of the districts are not the same. India's boundaries reflect those pre-1947 in the area, whilst Pakistan has redrawn the boundaries since then. To respond to your point, China's Medog County claims the territory that India administers largely as the Upper Siang district, yet both articles exist separately. Furthermore, there aren't any maps from Pakistan showing district level boundaries beyond the LoC, so the debate about why they haven't been created is moot. --Rvd4life (talk) 23:48, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: duplicate articles for the districts of Azad Kashmir administered by Pakistan. As parts of the larger Kashmir region, Wikipedia do not need separate articles for the areas administered by Pakistan but claimed by India and nor for those administered by India but claimed by Pakistan. Through inclusion to maps, these are similar to older claims by both countries over the regions of Kashmir without any administrative control. The dispute and claims are already mentioned in articles: Mirpur District and Muzaffarabad District per Ind-Pak consensus of 2019, plus thoroughly explained at the main articles regarding the Kashmir region; Kashmir (specifically in section:Current status and political divisions) and Kashmir conflict (for instance the content: map legality starts with, "As with other disputed territories, each government issues maps depicting their claims in Kashmir territory, regardless of actual control.")

Delete. I also couldn't find any coverage of this person or their company in reliable sources. And this is clearly promotional - the claim that they wrote a "famous poem" seems to be sourced only to a) the poem itself and b) their appearance on a podcast. The other sources have unclear authorship and clearly don't support the claim that they are a "rising hero" in Indian entrepreneurship. Clearly not notable.

ok, I've merged the refs instead as there were multiple links to the same pages. As a review of the sources:
- AtoZInsta.com the footer says Copyright 2024 : By - AtoZInsta and clicking on AtoZInsta takes you to subject's Insta page
- GetExtra is the "about" page of website created by subject, so cannot be used to establish notability.
- fmmarathi, footer links to same insta page as above, the about us link states the Founder and CEO is the subject.
- kukufm seems to be a podcast platform, so content is likely UGC.

Source assessment table

Source	Reliable?	Significant?	Notes
News18 [18]			This is the first movie in Kannada for Ganesh, who has previously worked in Tamil cinema. It is a story that tells the importance of relationships, and the songs have been shot in many places including Jammu and Kashmir and Madikeri.
The Times of India [19]			reliable for reviews only — See WP:TOI. Note that WP:RSN considers Times of India to have a reliability between no consensus and generally unreliable (2024 RfC). Uncontroversial content such as film reviews are usable
Indiaglitz [20]			Removed from the film article, see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Film/Indian_cinema_task_force#Guidelines_on_sources. Nonetheless, it has crucial production information such as "The shooting for this film was held in Jammu and Kashmir, Madikeri, Bengaluru and other surroundings. The talkie portion was held in hilly region of Karnataka Madikeri. This ‘Hyper’ is not just a love story but also explain father and daughter emotional relationship".
Indiaglitz [21]
Kannada Prabha [22]			Removed from the film article. While Kannada Prabha is reliable, this is just a video source of the trailer with the text: Hyper movie trailer The trailer of Hyper movie starring Arjun Arya and Sheela has been released. The movie is directed by Ganesh Vinayak.

Adil Qadri

AfDs for this article:

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

This article appears to have escaped a CSD G4 on the technicality that the CSD tag was removed not by the page creator but the by editor who moved this page into mainspace. That said, it's previously been deleted under an alternate name (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mohamadadil Asif Malkani) and has been repeatedly deleted.

Since we are now forced into a second AfD, here's the rationale and source analysis. The subject fails WP:GNG and WP:NBIO. Appearing on Shark Tank India does not generate notability. It is also WP:ADMASQ, with WP:PROMO language like Qadri's journey into the world of fragrances began at an early age, driven by his passion for fine aromas and an interest in traditional perfume-making techniques and As a self-made entrepreneur, his journey serves as an inspiration to aspiring business owners looking to break into niche markets. The sources do not support notability. We have:

Unbylined coverage that is unreliable per WP:NEWSORGINDIA ([23], [24], [25], [26], [27], [28], [29])
WP:ORGTRIV focused on his company, not on him ([30], [31], [32])
Tabloid journalism ineligible as WP:SIGCOV per WP:SBST ([33])
An apparent piece of WP:SIGCOV ([34]) but on a promotional site that publishes paid articles without disclosure.
An article that does not even mention him ([35])

I didn't find anything else qualifying in the WP:BEFORE search. Given its history of recreation, I am requesting editor support for WP:SALTING this title. Dclemens1971 (talk) 11:31, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople and India. Dclemens1971 (talk) 11:31, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: The article on Adil Qadri should be retained as it meets the notability requirements outlined by Wikipedia. Adil Qadri has been the subject of significant coverage in independent and reliable sources, which detail his entrepreneurial achievements and his contributions to his industry.

The article provides factual and verifiable information, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of his professional background and impact. While there may be areas for improvement, such as refining the structure or adding more citations, deleting the article would overlook the documented relevance of this individual.

I suggest addressing any concerns constructively rather than removing the article entirely. Hussainxyz (talk) 02:31, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly recommend you not use AI tools to generate responses and actually address the source analysis in the nomination. (GPTZero rates this as 100% probability of being AI-generated.) Dclemens1971 (talk) 01:52, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The company clearly meets the WP:NCORP and WP:CORPDEPTH criteria. I understand that there are concerns raised regarding WP:NEWSORGINDIA, which is why I have provided a detailed source assess table below, including proper justification for each source. In this table, I have chosen The Hindu as a primary reliable source because it has covered the company through general news, including substantial negative coverage. If the article has any promotional tone, it can be addressed and rectified accordingly. Regarding the WP:SPA accusation, I kindly request that we focus on discussing this deletion nomination based on its merits rather than making unwarranted assumptions. Such accusations demoralises.

It is not an accusation or assumption. You have made very few significant edits outside this topic, which effectively makes you a Wikipedia:Single-purpose account (SPA). I encourage you to contribute to other pages as well to avoid appearing as an SPA. More importantly, your source analysis is incorrect. Check my assessment of these sources below. Yuvaank (talk) 10:36, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

When someone begins editing Wikipedia, they usually work on just one page. Instead of doubting them ASPERSION, it’s better to be more understanding. That said, I have reviewed your source assessment and, to some extent, I agree with you. To overcome it, I have added an another source analysis table.

Keep: Although... I am a deletionist, I support keeping this page because the source analysis table meets the SIRS criteria. But, if the page-creating editor is found to be evading a block or anything like that, it could be easily nominated for deletion under G5. I assume this because the page has an alternate history. TC-BT-1C-SI (talk) 13:43, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody has accused the page creator of being a block evader. My nomination is based solely on the quality of the sources used, and I have provided a detailed rebuttal of the source analysis table above. I was also unaware of the previously unsuccessful attempts to create a page for this company at Cashfree Payments, Cashfree, Draft:Cashfree and Draft:Cashfree Payments. Thanks for pointing this out. Yuvaank (talk) 10:49, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - The creator's source assessment depends largely on The Hindu which has a poor reputation for fact checking[40][41]. - Ratnahastin (talk) 11:44, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That's why HINDU says its' opinion pieces should be handled according to the appropriate guidelines. I have used clear news reports, following the RSP qualification criteria for The Hindu. No source is perfect; their coverage often has some bias. Sometimes they even apologise and retract. For example, check out the List of The New York Times controversies. Despite these controversies, have we ever banned the NYT from being considered a reliable source? You have a strong editing history, and I was hoping for better arguments from you so I can learn as a new editor. Silkroadster (talk) 12:55, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The links I cited all referred to news articles not opinion pieces so first part of your comment is a strawman, secondly a source that has a history of no fact checking and ripping off random unverified facts from Wikipedia prior to publishing news can not be trusted, especially when the sources you cited were only reiterating the unverified statements made by the company itself. - Ratnahastin (talk) 09:00, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I understand your concerns about fact-checking and reliability. I have once again reviewed all the Hindu sources mentioned in my analysis. Apart from the company CEO's quotes, there is significant editorial input from the journalists, which should not be overlooked. My reservation is about dismissing an RSP source entirely due to past issues. To support my perspective, I have already provided the example of The New York Times. Okay, let's agree on this... The Hindu is on the RSP list based on a general consensus. If you have concerns about this source, you can raise them at RSN. My humble request is this... please try not to impose your personal judgment here solely based on your feelings. I can sense that you may be upset, so I kindly ask you to take a moment to calm down. I want to assure you that no disrespect is intended toward you. Silkroadster (talk) 10:59, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
RSP entry is not the final say on the reliability of indian sources, as WP:NEWSORGINDIA tells us to exercise caution when using them. Indian sources should be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Also, you should stop referring to the RSP entry, as it does not even discuss their business newspaper, which you have cited. - Ratnahastin (talk) 11:51, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
For the first point, I agree with the view on NEWSORGINDIA.

For the second point, regarding referring the Hindu RSP entries, please check this Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_305#The Hindu. Also, take a look at Tayi Arajakate's comment on Hindu Businessline at this link for more details.

To make things clearer, if we use the CiteHighlighter tool https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Novem_Linguae/Scripts/CiteHighlighter. Hindu BusinessLine appears to be acceptable. Silkroadster (talk) 14:09, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a COI with the company? Your response didn't address that. - Ratnahastin (talk) 08:56, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for asking. I just gave my response. My response... here focused on the AFD's key points, but I appreciate you asking for clarification. Silkroadster (talk) 10:47, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Why don't you quote the last two sources or provide their relevant scanned pages? These reports cost thousands of dollars and are inaccessible, we can't take your word for it given that you have tried to misrepresent sources before too. - Ratnahastin (talk) 09:35, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If I could access it, I certainly would have. Since they are mentioned in the context index and some in the introduction brief, I am accepting them. Regarding the cost of the reports, please refer to the PAYWALL guideline, which clearly states: 'Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access. Some reliable sources are not easily accessible. For example, an online source may require payment, and a print-only source may be available only through libraries.' Regardless, I apologise if we haven’t been able to see eye to eye on this. Secondly, I want to clarify that I haven’t misrepresented any source—it seems you are strongly asserting that a valid RSP source is invalid based solely on your personal opinion. Let’s call it a day. Silkroadster (talk) 11:04, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You should avoid waving these guidelines at experienced users, we are all aware of them. If you do not have access to sources you should not include them in your source assessment. You did misrepresent the source analysis earlier as Yuvaank's counter analysis showed. - Ratnahastin (talk) 11:42, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I value constructive and guidelines-based discussions and respect everyone’s experience here. But, I think it’s best for me and for this AFD... if I step back from having any conversation with you. I want to re-assure you that no disrespect is intended toward you. Silkroadster (talk) 14:16, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The fact that multiple independent research firms have produced in-depth reports and analysis on the company (structure, product, market positioning, comparison with other companies, etc) is enough to demonstrate notability as per GNG/WP:ORGIND. HighKing⁺⁺ 16:03, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Per nomination. I don't see any WP:SIRS that satisfies WP:CORPDEPTH, in addition, the bludgeoning and incorrect assessment of sources by Silkroadster which they said they do not even have access to, does not inspire much confidence. Nxcrypto Message 08:53, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Surely, the sources in the first source analysis table have limitations, and claims of misrepresenting sources may be valid; I am not discounting that, especially when we see it at first glance. However, they should not overshadow the fact that in-depth sources do exist, particularly the paywalled ones mentioned in the second source analysis. These types of reports show that the page meets WP:ORGIND standards, which focus on original and independent opinions, analysis, investigations, and fact-checking from sources not connected to the subject. Besides all of this, per WP:ATD-E, disagreements over a policy or guideline with respect to WP:PAYWALL, should not lead to the deletion of the page. Charlie (talk) 19:12, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The Data Security Council of India (DSCI) meets Wikipedia's General Notability Guideline, Organization Notability Guideline, and Government Entity Notability Guideline.

Notability: DSCI is a government-recognized body and widely covered by reliable sources such as [India Today](https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/2024-a-year-of-data-leaks-espionage-and-ddos-attacks-ransomware-data-breach-2654230-2024-12-23) and Google News (https://news.google.com).
As an initiative by NASSCOM and endorsed by the Indian government, DSCI plays a significant role in data privacy and cybersecurity in India.

The Wikipedia page for IIMUN (India's International Movement to Unite Nations) does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria as outlined in the General Notability Guidelines (GNG). While the organization claims widespread activity and recognition, the sources cited are primarily self-published or lack significant, reliable secondary coverage in independent publications. The majority of the references either originate from IIMUN itself, social media posts, or promotional material, which are insufficient to establish notability. Furthermore, the achievements mentioned, such as organizing large-scale conferences and initiatives like "Find a Bed," fail to receive substantial and consistent coverage from reputable third-party sources over a significant period. Without verifiable, independent, and non-trivial coverage, the subject cannot be deemed notable under Wikipedia's policies. Therefore, the article does not merit inclusion and should be considered for deletion. Likehumansdo (talk) 09:29, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The I.I.M.U.N. page passes GNG, the sources are credible. Find a Bed is covered by Forbes, moreover your whole comment is 100% AI generated without actually going through the sources. Can you point out any specific source which is not credible? IIMUN upon a single Google Search comes up in reputable non-promotional news, articles and mention in various books. Your comment falls short of appreciation, moreover when independent users like us have to keep Wikipedia alive and running. Ihsaan45 (talk) 13:53, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
IIMUN clearly passes CNG, it is a clearly prominent organisation with enough credibility on the internet. Rjain1998 (talk) 14:30, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I don't think the nomination looks AI-generated. The page looks somewhat fluffy. I took you up on your challenge and sampled one source I looked at, "Billabong School: Bringing Change with Students' Holistic Development". September 2018. Retrieved 2020-02-29., and it looks completely useless. The source is not very reliable and is not relevant for what it is supposed to back up in the article.

Keep: As mentioned already, the sources seem to be in line with the content written. Hence my take is to keep the page as it only mentions the credibility of the organization while also following the GNG. Ihsaan45 (talk) 12:52, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: because it is promotional and lacks credible, verifiable citations. Charlie (talk) 18:18, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This editor has been found to be turning a redirected page into a page about IIMUN's founder, potentially indicating a case of article hijacking. Charlie (talk) 13:39, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Lacks significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Fails WP:ORGCRIT. Bakhtar40 (talk) 07:50, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We have run a thorough check of the resources listed, and have found that two sources lead to dead links, owing to the dated nature of the original webpages/websites. While I am in the processing of editing it, I would like to point out that multiple sources have been provided to justify the sentences stated, and most of them are from extremely credible news channels/publication houses in India, including 'Times of India', 'DNA', 'Free Press Journal', 'India Today', 'Forbes India' and more. Request you to take their authenticity into consideration. Rjain1998 (talk) 16:48, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
