Non-notable musician/composer, cant find any reliable sources on him or his work.. Has not done substantial notable work and in my opinion does not warrant a standalone article on WP. FITINDIA 16:11, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I can. I'm not sure if this guy is notable or not yet, but to say there are "no reliable sources" doesn't seem correct. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 16:15, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ritchie333 I did do a before search, Indian Express does not mention him, radioandmusic.com does not look reliable to me, indianewengland.com again does not look reliable only this one Indiatvnews.com which is a news Chanel. Deccan Herald is a interview. Am going to go ahead and strike-off "cant find any reliable sources on him or his work" as I feel to there are some sources but have my doubts on some of them being reliable FITINDIA 16:47, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - I moved the page from Sourav roy to Sourav Roy per proper noun. However, the creator then added a good amount of material to the redirect that was left behind, which was then properly removed [1], but the material has not been added to the "correct" article. It should be considered, as I think the creator has a CIR issue and is unlikely to add to the "correct" place. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)} 18:24, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect the creator is a paid editor. I have given them some advice. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 18:41, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

78.26 have added that material back on Sourav Roy. Thank you for bring that to my attentions and it only seems fair that all that material should be considered. FITINDIA 18:43, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:MUSICOUTCOMES. We have long agreed that most producers are run of the mill. Bearian (talk) 01:21, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak Keep - much of the coverage is syndicated copies of the same press release, with the same stock photo, but this one says that he won the Global Indian Music Academy Awards (GIMA) award as best music producer of the year.[[2]] It was in 2015, as attested to by this primary source. [[3]] The reason this is a weak and not regular keep is I don't know much about the GIMA awards, but they do have an article in the English Wikipedia. If this was like the Grammys or Emmys, in terms of cultural significance, having won would be enough for him to pass WP:GNG. The show appears to have coverage in many mainstream publications, including the Hollywood Reporter. [[4]]. TimTempleton ^{(talk) (cont)} 23:17, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
