It so seems that this Ghosal article was created by a sockpuppet and the strangest thing is, users who have edited the subject's article have only been involved in editing this vanity article. It does not end here. Most of the sources cited on this article are either irrelevant or do not exist. This vanity article which seems to have been created by the subject itself should be deleted at the soonest.Non notable director with no indication of satisfying either WP:NACTOR or WP:GNG. Has done few television shows but hasn't directed significant or multiple notable shows. Likely a case of WP:TOOSOONCinewoman06 (talk) 19:28, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Cinewoman06: Get your facts straight if you're going to nominate articles for deletion. The article was not created by a sockpuppet. Csgir is an editor in good standing. There is only one edit by a known sockpuppet, and the other chief contributors have edited other pages. So the bulk of your rationale is invalid. It would seem unlikely that a director would have to satisfy the WP:NACTOR criteria, and you've made no effort to explain why you think he doesn't meet WP:GNG. Did you perform due diligence to look for quality sources as required by WP:BEFORE? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:43, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
