Might be notable, but the article completely lacks context, and I was not able to find any sources myself. Ymblanter (talk) 07:47, 7 March 2017 (UTC)


 * He appears to be a fairly important character in the Marthandavarma (novel) (see also his character entry), so I'll say keep. As is, the page hardly counts as an article though. Kakurokuna (talk) 07:52, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article is unsourced with very little content. The only link it references in the article Marthanda Varma makes no mention of this article. Ajf773 (talk) 07:55, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
 * You may wish to check out the article Marthandavarma (novel), where he plays a fairly substantial role. The real question here seems to be whether or not a separate page is merited, not a lack of sources. Kakurokuna (talk) 07:57, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment. Should this be under arts, not biographies? It sounds like there's significant confusion between the fiction of the book and the history it's based on. Kakurokuna (talk) 08:28, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Agreed. I've altered it. Ajf773 (talk) 08:32, 7 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Marthandavarma (novel) for now. Is currently unsourced and has no substantial content.  Sandstein   08:13, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Marthandavarma (novel) as that seems to be the most appropriate target. Does not have any indications of notability outside of the novel. Aoba47 (talk) 18:02, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
