I can't find these Brahmins in Brahmin, but with the vagaries of transliteration, they could be. Are they notable? There is one reference given, which is as hard to read as this. (Not being Indian doesn't help me there...) I can't decide if it's a WP:RS or not. Bits of it look rather similar to the referenced site, but as it's in rather small type and long words, I'll leave that to others to decide. Peridon (talk) 15:35, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've just noticed that the article is referenced to http://vaidyanayeebrahmin.hpage.com/ and that site is referenced to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Brahmin_nayee which looks a bit circular to me. Peridon (talk) 15:37, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The Nayee Brahmin community does exist but there is almost nothing written about them other than one-line mentions in lists etc. This article is hopeless in its current form and is never going to amount to anything that meets WP:GNG. This is not the first time that an article about Nayees has been attempted, IIRC. - Sitush (talk) 20:19, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Many Brahmin communities exist but not all are notable as they never get any coverage in reliable sources and this article is an example of such non notable communities. Jim Carter 20:31, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
