The article does not meet WP:GNG, WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO. Sources in article and WP:BEFORE revealed no WP:RS containing material that meets WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and in depth. Some WP:ROUTINE WP:MILL coverage exists and mentions in other articles which fall under WP:NOTINHERITED. // Timothy :: talk 02:39, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Delete per nom; no significant coverageSpiderone 14:50, 19 December 2020 (UTC)- Keep passes WP:MILPERSON as a notable Military General of the Sikh army, King, Royalty of the Kapurthala kingdom. I had searched for "Fateh Singh Ahluwalia" 1758. see "History | Kapurthala Web Portal | India". Government of India., kapurthala history Walrus Ji (talk) 13:58, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

- Delete. Insufficient reliable sources to meet WP:N or even WP:V. The government website cited above mentions the person only in passing, and it is not clear how reliable it is. Sandstein 13:08, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

- Comment This King of an Indian state is also mentioned in the list of Rajas (kings) at Kapurthala_State#Rajas. Some more sources that cover some of his military campaigns are :[1][2] There are more sources on Google books for "Fateh+Singh+Ahluwalia"+1758 All of these discuss this military general and king. I have no idea why Sandstein thinks that Government of India website will falsify history about an important historical person in its summary history of the kingdom. It should also be noted that the region speaks Punjabi language. I have improved the article, added refs and the image. The article of this Indian King should now be kept.

- Keep passes WP:GNG. Much can be found about him in secondary and tertiary sources.Serv181920 (talk) 17:29, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
- Strong Keep There is a lot of coverage him from non-primary sources. Also, he clearly passes WP:MILPERSON LeBron4 (talk) 17:51, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - The sources, especially this, show that he was an important figure in Indian history and Sikhism in particular Spiderone 18:06, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. When I go to Google Books and search for the exact title, I see the sort of coverage that suggests to me that an article could be constructed. Per WP:BEFORE, I would say the nomination isn't well-founded. Charles Matthews (talk) 14:42, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
