Keep WP:GNG met. WP:NBASKETBALL includes one women's league based in the United States - not sure why it would be considered relevant here. Article could use cleanup, expansion and improved referencing, not deletion per WP:ATD. Hmlarson (talk) 20:01, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The sources in the article are enough to get it over WP:GNG. Yet again, nominator has failed to do the least bit of WP:BEFORE. May be time for some action. Smartyllama (talk) 12:49, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the sources do not meet any reasonable interpretation of GNG. The notability guidelines for basketball only include one women's league because that is the only women's league where playing grants notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:14, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as a sportsperson who has represented her country. The WP:NBASKETBALL criteria seem to make it impossible for a player from India to be considered notable, which can't be right. PamD 12:02, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- @PamD: WP:NBASKETBALL is only a guideline to which sports figures are likely to meet the basic critera due to the popularity of the league they played in. Players who do not pass it can easily pass the basic criteria if there are enough of reliable and in depth sources about them. Dammit_steve (talk) 12:37, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Meets WP:GNG Bwabwa7 (talk) 01:23, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep She's been on her national team (And the second largest country in the world no less!) for 14 years, and is the captain!!! Clearly meets WP:GNG Jacona (talk) 13:15, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as captain of the girls's national team, meets GNG. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 19:13, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
