Article about an academic fellowship program. Sources do not meet WP:SIGCOV from neutral unaffiliated non-promotional sources. Fails GNG  // Timothy :: talk  06:11, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But the academic fellowship is an important milestone of government funded research and needs to be publicly visible to future applicants. Moreover only 35 university are eligible for this scheme, these universities needs recognition, which can be incorporated into their own wiki pages. 14.139.171.162 (talk) 06:36, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ahh I understand, I think a simple confirmation that you are involved in the program and that the article was written to promote the subject to prospective students will be enough to bring the nomination to an end. Please let us know if this matter is a misunderstanding.  // Timothy :: talk  07:06, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Promotional material, as acknowledged above by the IP. Unsalvageable. MarcGarver (talk) 15:13, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The knowledge regarding this fellowship needs to be shared to the public in an easily accessible space.

  • Delete “It’s useful” is not a reason to keep an article, especially not this rampant promotionalism that fails WP:GNG. Probably a G11 speedy, since it has been admitted that this article was written to promote a program. Also, User:TimothyBlue, this isn’t a mafia movie, there’s no need to conceal the info that a COI editor creating a article for promotional purposes is not allowed from the IP.

  • Keep.Dear fellow reviewers MarcGarver, Devonian Wombat , PianoDan, on what context did you arrive that the article was promotional in nature. Kindly read the article. This is a Government of India fellowship scheme, not a private agency scheme. If you look at wikipedia there are numerous articles about various fellowship scheme. Thiel fellowship, Fulbright program, NSF Graduate Research Fellowship, the DoD National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship, the DOE Computational Science Graduate Fellowship, the Guggenheim Fellowship, the Rosenthal Fellowship, the Frank Knox Memorial Fellowship, the Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellowship and the Presidential Management Fellowshipare a few among them. Just because this article is about a 2 year old fellowship program doesnt disqualify it. If so can you explain why those fellowships are acceptable but this fellowship is not acceptable. Hence i kindly request you to to recast your votes after analyzing all these articles.14.139.171.162 (talk) 06:04, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Please do not vote twice in AfD discussions.
    Also, please check WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS - the article must stand or fall on its own merits, not based on other articles. PianoDan (talk) 16:41, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete per criterion G11. XOR'easter (talk) 20:00, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The difference between the subject and the scholarship and fellowship programs mentioned above is that they have received significant coverage from reliable sources over a sustained period of time. The AICTE Doctoral Fellowship has not. Best, GPL93 (talk) 13:00, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
