*Delete: Non-notable and too less content . Kpgjhpjm 05:24, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Care to explain what makes you think non notable ? Too less content is a reason to expand and not to delete. --DBigXray 19:47, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:MILPERSON. Both nom and the editor above have failed to explain the policy and any strong reason to delete. The Subject is perfectly notable and is widely popular in Sikh History and literature. To summarize his Bio, this Sikh general is considered a villian as his treachery led to the defeat of Sikh army. The Search term should be "Tej Singh Anglo Sikh War" And the person is also mentioned as "Teja Singh" in some historical literature. The subject is a military commander with Notable history And the stub can easily be expanded. Being a top level General (the commander-in-chief) of the Sikh Army the subject passes WP:MILPERSON. Now as far as WP:GNG is concerned, please check the sources here [1] [2] [3] [1][2]. --DBigXray 19:45, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
