Non of the sources besides https://www.firstpost.com/art-and-culture/abhirup-dhar-probes-the-paranormal-in-new-book-ghost-hunter-gaurav-tiwari-9969841.html show notability. We need atleast 3 such sources to justify inclusion. Sohom ( talk ) 22:09, 24 May 2024 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 22:39, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete, Fails WP:BIO, the sources provided are not sufficient to establish notability. Pinakpani (talk) 05:51, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep: I found this title notable because this is an author with published books, those books are notable being bestselling around the country and also the author is being praised by noteworthy personalities in India. It also has enough good references on trusted websites.Samm985 (talk) 07:53, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete: Not much to establish NACTOR. What of redirecting to List of Indian writers. Safari Scribe Edits! Talk! 08:30, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
 * courtesy ping to @Sohom Datta, @Pinakpani, @Samm985. Safari Scribe Edits! Talk! 08:30, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
 * No, why? List of Indian writers is only for notable writers, redirecting a non-notable individual writer to a directory of notable writers that doesn't mention the subject is counterintuitive. Sohom ( talk ) 20:02, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I agree. Safari Scribe Edits! Talk! 11:04, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete- Nothing came up on Google except Times of India, Times of India, FirstPost, which are not sufficient to pass WP:AUTHOR or WP:ANYBIO RolandSimon (talk) 17:43, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep: The author seems to be notable with sufficient number of references. The author has number of books published and is worthy enough to be on Wikipedia
 * Weak keep - there is a retrospective review in a newspaper of record. Bearian (talk) 14:28, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
 *  Keep : The profile featured in prime news portals, research shows that he is a horror writer and authored horror books. This personality who has prime news articles should be on wikipedia though we can suggest for some more references and to improve its quality.

 * Keep:Books published by this author are in premium news portals. It has a number of news references too, content is not promotional and also not too lengthy. I find this author as the notable profile and thus it is applicable for Wikipedia.


 * Comment. - The two IP address here seemingly and almost certainly belong to the same individual, who, i) doesn't seem to be aware how to sign, and ii) is suspiciously keen to keep the article, which is evident by their language and choice of words. The grammar also gives it away. In my view, they may be the author themself, the author's relative, or some close associate. Either way, unreliable commenter. Oh, just noticed that the aforementioned user might be Stlodsid. The linguistic style adds up. User has recently been blocked indefinitely, so is perhaps adding comments without logging in. 2409:4060:317:601:0:0:134A:78A4 (talk) 00:34, 14 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Keep - Reliable with the news sources and content is not coming across as promotional.27.7.108.2 (talk) 05:08, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
