Gouri Chindarkar article
Hello, thanks for writing this article! I've just read it and I have to say I'm not sure this person is notable in her own right - what I see on her is coverage on her education and attending an unusual course, but I'm not sure this counts as sustained coverage by Wikipedia's standards. (I have to say I also don't like creating articles on people for achievements as children and feel it's preferable to wait until they've begun a notable career.)

Are there any more sources you can add about her? Let me know if you have any thoughts about this. Blythwood (talk) 12:27, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
