WP:BLP of a political figure, whose only stated claim of notability is as vice-president of a student organization. This is not an "inherently" notable role per WP:NPOL, but is one where people get articles only if they can be shown to clear WP:GNG on their sourcing -- but two of the three footnotes here just tangentially verify the existence of the organization without mentioning Dipak Adhikari or his role at all, and the third just glancingly namechecks his existence a single time in an article where he's in no way the subject. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced profoundly better than this. Bearcat (talk) 18:11, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete a search is complicated by there being other (notable) people of the same name, but as far as I can see, this one isn’t. Mccapra (talk) 18:52, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. All the hallmarks of Curious boy km. Clearly not a good faith editor either way[1]. Usedtobecool ☎️ 03:32, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That article move definitely wasn't appropriate, so I've reverted it — but the article itself isn't properly sourced as notable either, so I've also initiated an AFD discussion on it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deepak Adhikari. Bearcat (talk) 16:08, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, WP:POLOUTCOMES, WP:MILL, and WP:GNG. Political party functionaries are not inherently notable. Bearian (talk) 16:48, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
