The subject of this article appears to fail WP:DIRECTOR and WP:GNG. The article was deleted in 2018 per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PRAVAT ROUT. I'm starting another AfD rather than requesting G4 deletion because the subject has a couple of additional IMDb credits since the previous AfD was closed.

Although the article introduces Rout as a film director, he has primarily worked as a casting director. As mentioned by Bearian in the previous AfD, this is not something that automatically confers notability. I was not able to turn up any good sources through an online search (this is all I could find, and it consists entirely of an interview with no original reporting). I suggest deleting per WP:TOOSOON. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 18:52, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - The submitter has also submitted Draft:Pravat Rout. I have declined the draft as duplicating this article, on account of the previous AFD, and as failing to address notability for creative professions. If the article is kept, the draft should be redirected to the article. If the article is deleted, the draft may be kept for future notability.

  • Delete - The article as written fails to satisfy notability for directors or general notability, and fails to overcome the presumption of non-notability due to the previous deletion discussion. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:34, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment they also submitted another version User:Mansinghactor/sandbox to AfC - declined before I noticed this copy KylieTastic (talk) 19:50, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm trying to work out what happened at that sandbox, KylieTastic, as it doesn't appear to have played out how you think it did :) The edit history shows you added 3906 bytes onto a redirect. I'm guessing Robert moved the submission just before you pressed save?! Anyway, I'm going to redirect the sandbox to the draft. --kingboyk (talk) 21:53, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • damn I didn't even notice - way to many edit clashes today KylieTastic (talk) 23:23, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
