Anil Deshmukh

 * – ( View AfD View log )

"Keep" -Anil Deshmukh has been a public office holder for more than twenty-five years as member of Maharashtra Legislative Assembly or as minister in Maharashtra state government. He is currently under police investigation but that does not make him a non-notable person.Jonathansammy (talk) 17:46, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep. The sourcing I see and can read is enough to meet WP:N. We do not delete pages based on how frequently they're read, and not being active in politics is irrelevant (and by the looks of it that argument's patently false). Also, there's no point opening an AfD unless you're legitimately looking to delete the page. Defensive AfDs aren't a thing. —A little blue Bori  v^_^v  Jéské Couriano 00:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * (Sorry for the ping), to clear up what is a very confusing AfD: this AfD itself was not created originally by Jonathan. The page was tagged with an AfD, but the AfD tagger did not create an actual AfD page or listing on AfD. It seems that Jonathan created the AfD page by expressing support to keep the page, but Jonathan is not nom. snood1205(Say Hi! (talk)) 01:47, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep I can't make heads or tails of this nomination, but the article has loads of sources and the only argument that has been advanced for deletion has no grounding in policy. Mlb96 (talk) 01:51, 10 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep no valid basis for nomination, and the subject is a clear WP:NPOL pass. Mccapra (talk) 03:46, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
