Routine announcements about a person's appointment to a rank that is not clearly notable. Fails the Anybio criteria Moem-Meom (talk) 11:50, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. a rank that is not clearly notable. Clearly some sort of joke. Head of a 314,000 strong police force and previously head of two other large police forces! Very obvious case of WP:SYSTEMIC. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:48, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Being the head of a police force doesn't confer automatic notability. I've gone through pages and pages of search results and only found routine coverage, so I've given up; happy to reconssider if anyone else has better luck or can come up with more useful search terms. Removing "appointed" didn't help me. -- asilvering (talk) 04:59, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. High ranking official, also notable because he was appointed head of SSB (CRPF) very recently! — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheProEditor11 (talk • contribs) 10:17, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BEFORE found more routine mill news and more copies of #1 above, but nothing meeting WP:IS WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. Article illustrates the lack of sourcing, it is basically just an appointment annoucement with a lot of wikilinks. Ping me if sources with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth are found.  // Timothy :: talk  16:18, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
