Akshay KR Singh

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The article was deleted under A7 some time ago but there is a dubious claim to significant, which is why I'm bringing this here. Of the sources on the article, only No. 3 seems to mention him in any depth, not enough for notability under WP:GNG. I have not found substantial coverage of him and I'm unconvinced that, if coverage were to surface, he would be independently notable from the band. The article is also an autobiography.

 * Delete - Outside of his own Linkedin and social media profiles, I can only find him mentioned very briefly in a few reports about the group Nizami Bandhu. Also, calling him a "member" of that group is misleading because he is their musical director and manager. His involvement with the group is mentioned at their article and that is sufficient. I can find no other evidence of notability in his own right. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 15:17, 25 June 2021 (UTC)


 * No Delete updated director instead of member, found him on music app and few YouTube music videos of Nooran Sisters and Nizami Bandhu and he’s also on some news portal for social worker. He’s Notable person but not only in music, found a few news links in Hindi and English.

 * Delete I've reviewed the new sources proposed, and I'm less than convinced regarding the independence/reliability of punjabkesari and updainikhaskar. While I cannot read Hindi, there appear to be sentences that are verbatim repeated between the two sources, such as हऐसे कठिन समय में कई स्थानीय कलाकार ऐसे भी है जो एक समय का भोजन तक नहीं ले सकते हैं।, which machine-translates to In such difficult times, there are many local artists who cannot even take a single meal. There are other issues of extremely close paraphrasing/direct copying throughout the two documents, and अक्षय केआर सिंह ऐसे लोगों के लिए भोजन उपलब्ध करवा रहें है और अब उनकी यह सेवा केवल स्थानीय लोगों या कलाकारों तक सीमित नहीं, बल्कि वह शहर के 700 से अधिक जरूरतमंद लोगों तक, which machine translates to Akshay KR Singh is providing food for such people and now his service is not limited to only local people or artists, but he is reaching more than 700 needy people of the city. To me, it seems likely that these are related to some PR campaign, since it is extremely odd for an article to be written with similarities of that length. I'm unsure about the quality of the BHN source, though the company that runs it appears to be about one year old (and its contact email being newsbhn2020@gmail.com doesn't spur confidence in it being a longstanding company with a reputation for fact-checking and excellence). The source from the Business-Standard gives only a trivial mention of Singh.  I concur with  regarding the sources on the page. As I'm not able to identify multiple, in-depth reliable sources that are independent from the source, I'm inclined to delete the page. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 06:17, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
