Sources may look good at first sight, but are in fact some form of press releases / promo pieces written by Darshan Patil, who shares his name with the subject and his full name with the author of this article. There seems to be a distinct lack of reliable, independent sources about this local politician. Fram (talk) 08:27, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• The Sources are Real and Authentic as Maharashtra Government Official Site notes that Vikas Patil is elected for Water Supply Commitee. There are no chances for deletion of this page — Preceding unsigned comment added by Darshanpatil5567 (talk • contribs)
• Delete. Council member, doesn't pass NPOL. I don't see a GNG pass, though searching is complicated by a famous actor (who is quite possibly notable) sharing the same name.--Eostrix  (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉) 09:32, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - as a corporator on a district council, Pachora Municipal Council, he does not meet WP:GNG. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:52, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Clearly and uncontroversially fails WP:GNG. Also, what IS a 'corporator'? Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:58, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• It appears to be a term for one of the council members: "The Pachora city is divided into 25 wards for which elections are held every 5 years" (from the blacklisted census2011.co.in site that I can't link here). AllyD (talk) 05:17, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Fails GNG no reliable coverage available. INeedToFlyForever (talk) 15:04, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Keep Reliable coverage added, Government of Maharashtra link meets WP:GNG. Darshanpatil5567 (talk) 09:54, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Keep - as a corporator, Pachora Municipal Council page has mentioned and describes Vikas Patil as the member of council. Darshanpatil5567 (talk) 10:00, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Darshanpatil5567 please only one Keep/Delete opinion. You are free to add more comments as the discussion continues though. AllyD (talk) 05:11, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Clear cut for delete. Fails NPOL. Kolma8 (talk) 07:32, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
