Run of the mill journalist. No awards, no critical acclaim of his work. Maybe part of a long term effort to use Wikipedia for promotion. Previously deleted topic. Legacypac (talk) 06:48, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for failing all notability criteria in the book, and being obvious self promotion. And I'm not the least impressed by his claim about being "... the first accredited Nepali journalist by US Department of State"... - Tom | Thomas.W ^talk 13:20, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Articles by Panthi don't show notability, and promotional videos and passing mentions in mainstream newspapers don't either, nor upcoming books. See WP:JOURNALIST. Bishonen | talk 18:46, 9 April 2018 (UTC).[reply]
Delete. For above reasons. Note this has been referred to an ANI. 2604:2000:E016:A700:FCF6:5A0A:A1B0:A425 (talk) 19:47, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I found so many notable links about him in different languages. Let me improve this. I don't think we should delete this. HariKrishna123 22:44, 14 April 2018 (EDT)

Note: The article was created by an IP, edited by a throw-away account, declined twice at AfC (and in between those two declines HariKrishna123, i.e. the editor above, tried to remove the first decline through this edit...), and then moved directly to article space, bypassing AfC, by HariKrishna123, i.e. the editor above. Suggesting paid editing... - Tom | Thomas.W ^talk 20:06, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
