The coverage is not independent of the subject and the coverage in independent sources is insignificant. Aman Kumar Goel ^(Talk) 01:59, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

~~Comment~~ I have started adding in coverage of her work. She has received a number of notable awards, although I have only found an independent source for one of them as yet. DaffodilOcean (talk) 13:22, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - she has received awards from the presidents of Mongolia and China, but I am having trouble finding WP:RS for those honors. Unfortunately my language skills do not extend to the necessary languages. Hence, I base my change to weak keep on the presumption that someone else will fare better in finding the sources needed to support those honors. DaffodilOcean (talk) 01:54, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Helpful addition of citations by DaffodilOcean. I've also deleted two of the award sentences which remained unsourced and frankly aren't needed to establish notability and really come across as COI padding. (However, those two sentences are "parked" for now on the Talk page in case anyone wants to find sources for them in the future.) Yes, overall the article could use a bit more work so it sounds less like a CV, and yes, even more sources could be added, but I don't think those are reasons enough to delete the article of this notable career diplomat.

I have made further updates, including additional citations and clean up. I think this is a pretty uncontroversial "keep". Cielquiparle (talk) 18:34, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Bloke kicks ball for large city team for one match - notable. Person represents her country at talking to VIPs about global issues is maybe notable?? That would be very silly. Ambassadors are de facto notable. All this stuff about sourcing and coi is irrelevant. This is an afd not a discussion about sourcing. Victuallers (talk) 07:31, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
