The sources seem to me a PR material, and nothing such which may count towards GNG. Aaqib Anjum Aafī (^talk) 06:10, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I did a reference check, and third-party sources provided [1][2][3] are partnered content (paid spam article). Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 07:57, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Some of the references look like press release, but some don't. Even the ones that look like partnered content may not be, because it doesn't have some of the PR type formatting. I added more web references from the google news to the article and rectified the partnered content. This personality could be significant in Patna as he is nominated for SAARC Awards which count towards GNG.[4] reljohnn (talk) 11:46, 4 September 2020 (UTC)(— realjohnn (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. )[reply]

@Realjohnn:, Did you read WP:GNG? A single award nomination has nothing to do with GNG. - Aaqib Anjum Aafī (^talk) 18:47, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@AaqibAnjum:, yes i read WP:GNG and did a research on this. He got ‘Startup of the Year in Influencer Marketing' award [5] and nominated for SAARC Awards[6]. Also, i can see he formed bihar's first influencer marketing agency [7] which may count towards WP:GNG.There is also an IMDb page of him stating he worked for Khajoor Pe Atke movie. [8]- reljohnn (talk) 19:21, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Realjohnn, Well, IMDB makes no sense, it could've been helpful if there was a case of WP:NACTOR, but the subject fails NACTOR from toe to head. Coming to SAARC award nomination, it is a too soon case. Bihar's first influencer marketing agency and it has just WP:ROUTINE coverage - nothing in well, reliable and reupted sources. No pass of WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE. ─ The Aafī (^talk) 09:14, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

* Keep: I have improved the article with reliable references and information. - (talk) 18:44, 7 September 2020 (UTC) striking suspected sock vote Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 18:38, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete right away. Fails WP:GNG and lacks WP:SIGCOV. -Hatchens (talk) 05:07, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Weak Keep Qualify WP:GNG to a certain extent but a bit lack in WP:SIGCOV. -Patrickmee (talk) 05:25, 12 September 2020 (UTC) strike sock vote -- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 15:55, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Patrickmee, and you failed to see that WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV have same target. A subject failing SIGCOV (significant coverage) fails GNG right at the moment. Don't play hocus-pocus. ─ The Aafī (^talk) 05:32, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Found few reliable references such as Navbharat Times [9] I believe the article does meet the general notability guideline - only businessmen of a certain reputation and stature would be nominated for SAARC awards.-ThePediaGeek (talk) 11:56, 17 September 2020 (UTC)strike sock vote -- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 15:55, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete : All the references are spam because there is no editor name mentioned. All of it says "Partnered Content". Fails WP:GNG. The keep votes are from the socks, I have already reported them for SPI. This needs to be deleted. AngusMEOW (chatter • paw trail) 13:03, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@AngusMEOW: I’m sorry if you think my account is a ‘sock’. I’m very surprised to see your response. Coming to the article, what i have shared is the ‘NAVBHARAT TIMES’ article with an editor name as ‘Ankit Ojha’ . I didn’t saw any partnered content as of now.

Delete cross-wiki spam and promotion. --IWI (talk) 21:16, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails to qualify WP:GNG and all the links are from PR - Tatupiplu'^talk 14:39, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
