 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as nothing at all actually suggesting an explicitly independently notable article. SwisterTwister   talk  06:24, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Here we are running into the usual trouble with articles like this: reliable sources, if they exist, are likely to be mostly in Telugu, a language that neither I, nor, I'd assume, the other participants in this discussion can read. Apart from a reference in a 1957 survey of Telugu literature (now added to the article), I stumbled upon a couple of blog posts about the character . Of course, these aren't by themselves enough to establish it as notable, but given the context, they do strongly suggest that it might be. Uanfala (talk) 09:00, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep. According to this book from a university press Budugu "became a house-hold name for over two decades". 86.17.222.157 (talk) 14:23, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

 * I'm wondering if the discussion hasn't changed the mind of GeoffreyT2000, Daniel Kenneth or SwisterTwister. Uanfala (talk) 09:17, 1 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep Even though only one reliable source says indirectly that this subject is notable enough, I believe that the material given by this discussion would let it become into a respectable article that even though it would have no chance of becoming a featured article, it would be able to survive future deletion discussions.
