Submission declined on 25 June 2025 by WikiMentor01 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. Declined by WikiMentor01 2 months ago.

Submission declined on 17 June 2025 by Bunnypranav (talk). This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject. This submission appears to be a news report of a single event and may not be notable enough for an article in Wikipedia. Please see Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#NEWS and Wikipedia:Notability (people)#People notable for only one event for more information. Declined by Bunnypranav 2 months ago.

• Comment: DoubleGrazing's comments are not yet resolved, please fix them. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 13:13, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

• Comment: The referencing is a complete mess. There are multiple citations to support statements, where only one would do. Meanwhile, there are entire sections without a single citation. There are also citations in section headings, where it isn't clear at all which source is meant to support what content in the section.
  Then there is a large number of external links listed under 'References', which are not cited anywhere, so arguably aren't references at all. If the author is wishing to rely on those to establish notability, they need to be cited inline in the usual manner.
  Speaking of notability, I've no idea on what basis this is being claimed. The sources certainly don't satisfy WP:GNG. There are extravagant claims of 'renown' etc. but these seem little more than peacockery.
  If special WP:AUTHOR or WP:NACADEMIC notability is being asserted, please state clearly on what basis this is, and what evidence supports such an assertion.
  Finally, note that this is now the 8th review by the 8th different reviewer, and the draft is therefore nearing the end of the road. I hope the next submission will be more convincing, because otherwise this may well be rejected outright. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:25, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

• Comment: stuffed with primary sources and commercial links to buy books, YouTube and The Times of India none of these are reliable. Theroadislong (talk) 06:42, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

• Comment: Commercial links to purchase books need to be removed they are NOT useful sources. Theroadislong (talk) 07:04, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

• Comment: Fails WP:NAUTHOR - Amazon.in is not an acceptable or reliable independent source. Needs to be more than mentions in passing or inclusion on lists. Dan arndt (talk) 06:07, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject. It may require cleanup to comply with Wikipedia's content policies, particularly neutral point of view. Please discuss further on the talk page. (August 2024) (Learn how and when to remove this message)
