Does not appear notable. The references provided are not in English and hence cannot verify. The page appears like an advertisement. The page creator appears to be a single purpose account. Vikram Vincent 13:10, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
- As of this moment, 9/13 of the references are not in English making it difficult to verify whether the subject passes WP:GNG. Vikram Vincent 18:53, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

- Comment User:Vincentvikram is randomly nominating articles without any solid statement. I noticed, he provided almost same reason (Notability and non Reliable Sources) for all articles nominated for deletion. It seems like his edits are not constructive on Wikipedia.

Keep The links in references talk about him. But unreferenced sections in the article can be trimmed.- AppuduPappudu (talk) 18:50, 11 March 2021 (UTC)- Hi AppuduPappudu Would you be able to point out specific links that would satisfy WP:THREE so that I can withdraw my nomination.. Thanks Vikram Vincent 10:30, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- Except for a passing mention in "The Print" and not much information available elsewhere, I agree with you and take back my Keep.-AppuduPappudu (talk) 15:31, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

- Comment: The subject does not seems notable as per the findings by nom. But Vincentvikram, I suggest you not to use arguments such as
The references provided are not in English and hence cannot verify in AFD
. Our guidelines does not says that the sources used must be in English. If relible and independent, anyone can use sources from any other languages. Since you are the nominator here, its your responsibility to translate these sources into English (we have better translators now a days) and find whether it is relible and have any sigcov. Regards.

No significant coverage and fails GNG. Some of the sources even dont mention about this subject. Like the nom said, this might be just written for promotional purpose.

- (EDIT CONFLICT) Thanks Kashmorwiki. While I can read the sources, I am not an expert and prefer an expert to state what is in them. My intention is to improve an article through greater scrutiny than deleting them. Vikram Vincent 17:26, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
