Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nabin Luhagun (thespian)

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete‎. An article on this subject has already been deleted 4 or 5 times and I don't see that this version is an improvement. It's clear that editors advocating "Keep" do not understand Wikipedia's standards for Notability because merely being mentioned in an article is insufficient. Since previous versions of this article were created by sockpuppets, I'm wondering if a return trip to SPI is called for. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 06:32, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This article was presumably created at this location to circumvent the creation protection at Nabin Luhagun, which was part of a concerted sockpuppetry campaign to add an article about this person to the English Wikipedia. (Note the existence of an equally poor article at the Hindi Wikipedia here, created by translating the now-deleted and similarly-protected Nabin Luhagun (actor), which indicates that the subject is Nepali, as was the case with the deleted versions here, rather than Indian.) The given references only include mentions in cast lists and are of dubious reliability. A search suggests that there is not enough third-party coverage to warrant a biographical article and that the subject does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NACTOR.

•Keep.and move to Nabin Luhagun without (thespian) if possible, since there isn't any other articles which exists with that name. Thank you. AasifShrestha (talk) 05:32, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As you are the creator of the article, it would be helpful for you to address the notability concerns raised in the nomination. --Kinu ^t/_c 05:43, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Every source has mentioned the subject as an actor, and this is enough for WP:GNG. RomanRaju (talk) 10:30, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Given that WP:GNG literally says "significant coverage is more than a trivial mention", this !vote makes absolutely no sense. --Kinu ^t/_c 14:28, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Kinu, thank you for this response, I was trying to say that the subject is mentioned as an actor which is enough for WP:GNG. RomanRaju (talk) 14:35, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Any reasonable closing admin will realize that the given sources are absolutely worthless toward establishing notability, so I will refrain from further responses per WP:BLUDGEON. --Kinu ^t/_c 14:39, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: It is unclear the extent to which the subject may have a role in Waltair Veerayya: even verification requires more than inclusion in a list of names. But, regardless, this is insufficient for WP:NACTOR, and the present instance's creation under this variant title indicates evasion of the protection applied with the deletion of prior instance titles.

Delete per nom does not meet NACTOR.Tame Rhino (talk) 00:39, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You just have 11 edits, how you know about WP:NACTOR. AasifShrestha (talk) 06:03, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

.Redirect. The title is connected to Waltair Veerayya; it is better to redirect the page to Waltair Veerayya, no deletion.2400:9700:113:1547:45B5:4F14:BC2E:F828 (talk) 10:27, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Regarding the IP's suggestion of redirecting to the Waltair Veerayya article, I would prefer if there was some solid source for associating the subject with the film. The subject is not mentioned at the film's IMDb article's full cast and crew, for example. AllyD (talk) 09:11, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Given the deletion history of this article in its previous forms, I'm almost inclined to believe that this is some sort of astroturfing campaign. I find absolutely nothing reliable to support the alleged acting credits except for name checks from the content aggregator-type sites like those presented as sources in this version. Is some or all of it a hoax? I don't know for sure, but if nothing else the sourcing is hardly sufficient to support a WP:BLP. Kinu ^t/_c 03:58, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: This is actually the second relist. The one indicated on top of mine was tagged incorrectly by a discussion participant so the discussion was not reposted.

Comment. While additional citations appear to have been added to the article since the nomination, precisely zero of them constitute significant coverage from reliable sources. --Kinu ^t/_c 16:38, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Since the nomination, additional citations have been added from reliable sources. If possible, move to Nabin Luhagun without (thespian), since there isn't any other article with that name.AasifShrestha (talk) 05:58, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. The page can be improved; regarding AasifShrestha's suggestion of moving Nabin Luhagun without (thespian), it can be moved where reliable sources have been added since nomination, and it would be sufficient for WP:GNG.RomanRaju (talk) 11:41, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is not possible to improve the page if no reliable sources exist. Kinu ^t/_c 16:21, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
