Non notable individual. Refbombed primary sourced spam that screams of UPE. Lacks independent coverage about her. Awards are not major. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:38, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. Fails WP:GNG, WP:NBIO with no WP:SIGCOV in secondary, independent, reliable sources. Sources are all WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS, WP:PRIMARYSOURCES or affiliated sources. Contrary to the page creator above, there is no inherent notability to being an exec at Google. As the nom says, this article has WP:UPE signs all over it.

- Keep: As can be assessed through the WP:N guidelines and Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources, these are some major third party reliable platforms that mention Shalini as a potential figure in tech industry.

- @Maverickbl, it's rather remarkable that your 23rd edit in less than a week as a Wikipedia user is to an AfD discussion! It's not common for new users to find their way here that quickly. That said, you do not appear to understand how the sourcing requirements work for GNG.
- Variety is not covering Govil-Pai independently, it's promoting one of its own events at which she spoke.
- The Financial Times article is not actual journalism by the FT; it's a required public posting from YouGov and is thus a WP:PRIMARYSOURCE.
- As with Variety, The Wrap is promoting one of its events, not providing independent coverage.
- Penn State is not an independent source; Govil-Pai is an alumna and they are promoting her affiliation with them through this award.
- The Economic Times article is a single two-paragraph mention of Govil-Pai in a list of other people. Setting aside the WP:NEWSORGINDIA problems, it's certainly not WP:SIGCOV of Govil-Pai.
- Hope this helps. Dclemens1971 (talk) 20:20, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
