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.

Delete: All I see is news coverage from Hindi local sources, with no significant coverage sources found. The subject fails to meet GNG. It was moved from the Draft space to the Main space because the draftification was done without consensus. Per WP:DRAFTNO, articles older than 90 days should not be draftified without discussion or consensus. GrabUp - Talk 04:29, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Small castes

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

This article cites no sources. A Google search for "small castes" reveals no relevant results. I can't find any evidence anywhere that these castes were created by the occupying authorities. On the contrary, many of the castes listed here have their own articles on the wiki, and many of those articles seem to indicate a much more ancient history to those castes. The description of the Teli caste is nonsensical (oil tycoons?) and suggests that the content in this article may have been machine-translated from a non-English source. The one sourcethe article used to cite doesn't mention any of the content in the article. The content of the article is currently being included in AI-summaries for related searches, which is a concern if this information is not true. I challenge the community to either find sources for the content of this article or, if sources cannot be found, to delete it. -- LWG ^talk 20:36, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete due to lack of any sources and extremely poor writing. I have to think that this is a fork of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes; if so, a redirect would be an ATD. Bearian (talk) 03:08, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: So much news coverage, yet no significant coverage was found, failing to meet both GNG and NPOL. If the subject gets elected as an MLA, surely this article can be recreated by anyone. If not, I will create it. However, for now, I believe keeping this article is pointless. We can also consider draftification or redirecting it to relevant targets like NCP (SP) or 2024 Maharashtra Legislative Assembly election. Let’s me know your opinions.

I’m not !voting, but I note that if the article is kept, the personal life section is unsourced and is potentially is a WP:BLP violation. Bearian (talk) 02:23, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Feyaad Allie

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

Unsourced BLP article, sending it here as an alternative to WP:BLPPROD as a quick WP:BEFORE doesn't bring up evidence of significant coverage. Sources I found included this non-independent writing from the Award Committee of an award he got, this article (in French) that only quotes him twice but doesn't provide SIGCOV, and this profile from a fellowship program he is a part of. I didn't find anything that would indicate WP:GNG is likely met. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 20:29, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep- Feyaad Allie’s position as a scholar in the Department of Government at Harvard University meets Wikipedia’s notability criteria under WP:PROF. Being a faculty member at a globally prestigious institution like Harvard is a strong indicator of his academic impact. His profile is publicly listed on Harvard’s official website as an important scholar in department of Government

Delete. Associate professor, cited by 14 according to GScholar, does not meet PROF. An attempt to source the article did not turn up anything that would make the subject meet WP:BIO/WP:GNG. Sam Sailor 15:27, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Per the reasoning above and checking Semantic Scholar only one of Allie's papers has been cited by others in the database with only one of those being "highly influential" by their criteria. As such a clear case of not meeting PROF. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 16:42, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - There is no specific number of "highly influential" citations mentioned in the criteria. Therefore, relying on absence of more than one "highly influential" citation does not constitute a clear case of not meeting the required standard. --DelphiLore — Preceding undated comment added 19:47, 23 October 2024 (UTC) — Duplicate !vote: DelphiLore (talk • contribs) has already cast a !vote above.[reply]
You are correct that there is no specific criteria about what is notable. That does not mean that Wikipedia does not have standards. The criteria for "highly influential" citations in Semantic Scholar is loose. One study found that 4.57% of all citations were rated as such across the over 200 million publications in Semantic Scholar. Even if they are averaging only 1 citation per paper that is over nine million such highly influential citations. My interpretation of these facts is that one such HI citation in one paper is the scientific equivalent of having walked onto a lower level professional football pitch once. It is not notable.

Also, by adding another bulleted comment with a bold keep you have in effect voted twice. Please avoid doing so again in the future. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 22:33, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NBIO. No significant coverage. No secondary independent reliable sources and the subject has not made any significant impact or achievement that is noteworthy nationally or internationally. RangersRus (talk) 12:44, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - we have never kept at AfD a a scholar with such a slim record. He earned his PhD … this year. He is an assistant professor, which lacks tenure. We almost never keep non-tenured professors, and I can think of only one non-chair who has passed the prof test. Without significant coverage, he doesn’t pass general notability either.

Delete. Per nom fails WP:NPOL. Fails WP:NAUTHOR too. Poor to unreliable to deadlinks to failed verification sources with no notable coverage on the subject. The subject does not seem to warrant a biographical page because of no significant, interesting, or unusual enough coverage to deserve attention or to be recorded as a politician and author.

Comment The college is supposed to be affiliated to West Bengal University of Health Sciences. But, I can't find proof of this on either the college's or the university's site. Redirection to the university's page would be a good ATD otherwise. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:15, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, that’s what I wanted to do myself without going through AfD, as it would add to the backlog of hundreds of AfDs (assuming you’ve seen the chat on the NPP Discord). The college was supposed to be established this year, and there isn’t much information about it. Without a source, it wouldn’t be appropriate. GrabUp - Talk 09:42, 23 October 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. Presenting it as a distinct phenomenon is scientifically inaccurate. Additionally, this is not the Malayalam Wikipedia. Per WP:CFORK, this is an unnecessary content fork.

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.

Delete: I agree with LibStar; the cited sources are only primary, which are useless for establishing notability. Diplomats are not inherently notable and this fails both the GNG and SIGCOV criteria. GrabUp - Talk 05:35, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: I also did a lot of searching but couldn't find anything, so clearly fails WP:GNG Jannatulbaqi (talk) 17:59, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I would allow it to exist, but the fairly clear consensus has developed that ambassadors are no longer automatically notable. Without significant coverage, and his personal life section completely (!) unreferenced, even an ambassador from one major BRIC country to another isn’t notable. Please ping me if you rescue this.

Similar rationale to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Navin Chawla (judge), there's little coverage that would suggest that they pass WP:GNG other than routine coverage of their appointment and cases that they have judged. Hemiauchenia (talk) 18:11, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep on a liberal reading of WP:JUDGE which recognizes that a state-wide or province-wide office raises a presumption of notability. Although Delhi is under federal jurisdiction it is the National Capital Territory which we can treat as equivalent to a state or province.
In that way he is similar to Helen Murrell who is the former chief justice of the Supreme Court of Australian Capital Territory, also not a state but a federal territory. He is unlike Navin Chawla (judge) who is a permanent judge but not chief justice. I offer no opinion on Mr. Chawla's page. Oblivy (talk) 03:03, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - chief judge of a federal district (equivalent to the District of Columbia) is probably going to be notable. The current sourcing is not great, but is acceptable; finding reliable sources coming out of India is a fool’s errand. Bearian (talk) 00:59, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The subject is a non-notable person, failing both WP:NPOL and WP:GNG.

Nirmalya Ghosh

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

WP:BLP, identified as possible WP:UPE, about a scientist not clearly shown as passing inclusion criteria. This was started in the creator's personal sandbox, going through two rounds of needing to have categories removed from it on WP:USERNOCAT grounds, before the creator (a WP:SPA with no prior edit history apart from this article) tried to move it to a "user" profile, following which it was moved to draftspace by an established editor on the grounds that no user account existed under the username Nirmalya Ghosh -- but then the creator moved it directly to mainspace themselves, following which there's been a full edit war over redraftifying and remainspacing it.
Paid editors, however, are required to use the WP:AFC process so that their articles can be reviewed for compliance with Wikipedia's content rules -- but given the fact that there's already been an edit war over what namespace it was located in, I don't see the point in just moving it back to draftspace again without discussion. Obviously if consensus does land on moving it back to draftspace, it should be move-protected to prevent further edit-warring, but obviously consensus may also just lean toward straight deletion.

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.

Keep my vote is for keep, kindly understand that there are many Hollywood and Bollywood movies that are upcoming in 2025 some are more than a year away yet many already have established wiki pages on them such The Accountant 2, F1, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3, and more the list is endless. The information current available on the film 120 Bahadur is good enough to create a wiki page and as time progress and more info is available the wiki page will definitely grow with time. Moreover it is a film about a historically significant event. So the wiki page deserve a place with other films that are up for release in 2025. Bonadart (talk) 05:18, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your argument seems to fall under WP:OSE which is not something that can be used to support notability.

The ones I see do not but will look at any you provide in case there is something I missed. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:04, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i am in no mood to argue, my contention is if The Accountant 2, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3 which are pure fiction can have well established wiki page, then 120 Bahadur which is based on real life and a immensely historical and significant event if you may think of, also deserves a place, and if you want to talk of capturing space in that case i think this page doesnt even grab a space more than tip of safety pin out of whole wiki sphere.

TOOSOON - then what will say or opine about The Accountant 2, F1, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3, and more; all these films are 6 months to 1 year away yet they have established wiki pages. most of the crew of the film 120 bahadur are already on board as for cast the film is centered around Shaitan Singh Bhati who is played by Farhan Akhtar which is decided, as for others the cast hasnt been declared but may be revealed pretty soon, as for shooting it has already started as declared. So in all sense and purpose much of the info in wiki page is valid, and so deserves to be in live space. Bonadart (talk) 16:21, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for keeping the discussion alive

my 3 points

1. with all due respect ' if the content creator is going to immediately move it back to main space ' is bit harsh, please understand it takes time and effort to create a page, lot more to develop it. i have no issue if a article is deleted or kept in draft but it should always be done after thorough discussion, once consensus is reached why will any one have any problem, certainly not me.

2. regarding this page as I said earlier, agreed that this film is about a year away but so are movies like The Accountant 2, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3 but all these films have well established pages already, my point is these films are based on fiction where as this film '120 Bahadur' is based on reality and facts, so it deserves a space.

3. as for sources anyone include better sources if anyone can find.

thanks

Delete fails WP:NBIO, there's no significant coverage about him or his life in the cited sources, most of them infact are about the organisation he founded. Ratnahastin (talk) 07:29, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ [struck 00:00, 25 October 2024 (UTC); see below]. He co-founded NASSCOM (about which we have an article) with half a dozen or six dozen others. He wrote a book. The book was well received, and we have an article on it. He is apparently a somewhat-known name in India, anyway, but for the purposes of his article, he does not seem to pass GNG, as the coverage I've found tends to be either in-passing mentions or non-independent. The article itself is quite dreadful, as it happens, but it's not worth trying to repair his resumé at his current level of demonstrated notability. — JohnFromPinckney (talk / edits) 08:11, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- How about a Redirect to NASSCOM? Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:52, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  @Liz A redirect is usually the best option. It could point to either NASSCOM or the book he authored, The Maverick Effect, which recently met the Heyman Standard. Charlie (talk) 03:31, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  
  Okay, Liz, that's not a bad idea; I'd be happy with a redirect to NASSCOM. The book he wrote is more... personal (or maybe I mean direct), but it's apparently based on his time at NASSCOM, so that article would be my preference for a target, rather than the book. — JohnFromPinckney (talk / edits) 00:00, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Battle of Dewair (1606)

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

This article is a WP: REDUNDANTFORK from Mughal conquest of Mewar. There was no need to create this standalone article as the content is already present in the other article. Hence it should be deleted. Admantine123 (talk) 01:23, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Mughal Conquest of Mewar was a series of millitary campaigns whereas Battle of Dewair is a single battle. I don't see any reason to merge it with the latter. WP: REDUNDANTFORK applies for the same topic with different name. However, In this case the battle is a part of strings of event(Mughal Conquest of Mewar) through which Mewar concluded a treaty. Hence neither it should be deleted nor it should be merged. Rawn3012 (talk) 05:26, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I agree with Rawn3012. WP:REDUNDANTFORK states that's it is bad to have "two articles about the exact same thing" - but these are not the same thing, it's a battle within the larger conquest therefore the only thing that matter is if the battle itself is notable. Searches for name (Hindi: दिवेर का युद्ध) return a lot of results especially in Indian media, i.e. Dainik Bhaskar (4th in the world by circulation) made an article specifically about it interviewing academics [8] and there's a lot more as well meeting WP:SIGCOV.

Mughal–Rajput wars

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

This article is a poor WP:CONTENTFORK (WP:REDUNDANTFORK) from several articles like Rajput Rebellion (1708–1710), Rathore rebellion (1679–1707) and List of battles in Rajasthan. The individual topic like Battle of Khanwa has been stitched together to create an article suggesting that something like Mugal Rajput wars were a single homogeneous event spread over the different period of time. The individual topics are isolated events and a duplication from the List of battles in Rajasthan. So it should be deleted and content if anything that is here but not in List of battles in Rajasthan should be merged to latter. Admantine123 (talk) 01:08, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete like so many Maratha/Mughal articles recently, a hopeless mix of WP:SYNTH, exaggerations, and misrepresentations. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 23:49, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Relisting. This article has been a sock magnet, so I don't think Soft Deletion is the best option. It either needs the support of editors to keep it sock-free or to be Deleted or Redirected or Merged.

Delete - there is no need to keep this sock magnet as the material is already covered. A hard delete is needed. Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:11, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The Mughals and Marathas have been at war between 1526-1779, this article lists a collection of WP:RS battles and also the cronological events. Every history and major source agress there was a long lasting war between Mughals and Rajputs, there is no denying it. I don't see a reason this WP:Notable historic article has been nominated for deletion! Dilbaggg (talk) 08:50, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Existence of this article is an improvement and provides for easier viewing for interested people. The article title is phrased plurally; Mughal–Rajput wars. Not being a made up single conflict. Deleting this article is an inappropriate course of action for the problem. RevolutionaryPatriot (talk) 11:20, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep-There were surely wars between Rajputs and Mughals and this article summarizes that but what is wrong in this is its tone and possible same content from other articles. All it needs is an improvement of in depth details about topic and a good tone. Rawn3012 (talk) 14:11, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
