Talk:Praveen Khandelwal

Notability and promotion
and, I do think the article is promotional at present, KrAsia and Rest of World look suspect, the claim about a 80 million membership is an improbably high number. Even trade unions don't nearly have that let alone a traders' organisation. At best, they have uncritically reproduced a claim without even basic fact checking. The article is also sanitised of his political affiliation whereas his claim to notability is his connection with the Cabinet and his status of a quasi-lobbyist/politician. That said I think the subject easily meets notability guidelines for BLPs considering the Quartz piece and this Scroll.in article, both of which are in-depth and about him. I also found an old Times of India article which is about him being nominated to contest an election. I was planning on revamping this article, so I'd like to know if anyone's taking this to AfD.

 * You make a good point about the 80 million, I did not have my numbers brain on when reading and just confirmed it in the source and moved on. I do still think the article should be kept, since he seems obviously notable (ignoring the promotion issue, which imo is not be so overwhelming as to lead to WP:TNT conclusion at AfD). Glad to see someone with more familiarity with India than me taking a careful look at it. Rusalkii  (talk) 03:13, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Wait nevermind, the Scroll.in article is the Quartz article, just republished. But anyways, there are others such as this Hindustan Times article which is about his part in the protest against Amazon. So he still appears to at least meet WP:BASIC.

 * Hi, I've already taken it to AfD after the non-admin manual revert of CSD/NPP tag by . They could have contested the deletion in proper way. But, nevermind... please feel to participate in the AfD and bring an appropriate closure. -Hatchens (talk) 08:30, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'd assumed it was like a PROD and anyone except the creator could remove the tag if they disagreed. I'll stay out of the AfD given that I messed that one up. Rusalkii  (talk) 15:18, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
