The result was delete. As I wrote when I relisted this a week ago, I do not find the "keep" !votes convincing and the same goes for the one "keep" !vote that came in after the relist. Therefore, the final outcome is "delete". Randykitty (talk) 13:48, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There is no genuine claim of significance other than being the founder of Paisalo Digital Limited (notability of which is questionable itself). Few passing mentions, business profiles or listings are traceable. Other than that there is nothing to corroborate independent notability. Fails on WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO.

Keep: Sunil Agarwal has been covered by several mainstream media such as India Infoline, The Wall Street Journal, Moneycontrol.com, India Microfinance etc. and he has an independent coverage on 1. That makes him enough notable per WP:Notability (people). Arif1986 (talk) 07:20, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, they are very weak sources. Interviews and business listings are not good enough to make notability case at AfD per GNG. The Wall Street Journal thing is a business profile, not an in-depth coverage, unsure whether it's user-generated. Hitro talk 01:52, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Sunil Agarwal is the founder of Paisalo digital Ltd. (26+ years old company) which is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange & National Stock Exchange. He deserves to be on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.209.166.149 (talk) 12:58, 27 November 2018 (UTC) — 106.209.166.149 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I find the keep arguments to be exceedingly weak, so I am exceptionally relisting this for a third time, so that more informed "keep" (or "delete") !votes may clarify the issues.

Keep: passes WP:GNG with sustained significant coverage in multiple very reliable sources as shown by India Infoline and others.-~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikibablu (talk • contribs) 16:16, 12 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There are two references from India Infoline [1] And [2]. The first one is an interview and second one is redirecting to homepage of India Infoline. All other sources are either business listings or interviews. I am not able to find any strong source that can support these keep voters claims. Hitro talk 09:03, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment- This AfD has not attracted any experienced editor till now. Keep voters are relatively new or inexperienced and their rationales are not persuasive enough to close this discussion in favour of keep. I do not want to go in deep as I don't have enough evidence but I can trace signs of black hat editing too. Hitro talk 09:03, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nominator. All keep!votes are from meat0rings.∯WBG^converse 19:41, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - the arguments to keep are not satisfactory; the sources given are not in-depth or non-trivial enough to be considered good enough for GNG Spiderone 10:44, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
