 * Comment My own Google searches returned dozens of mentions in relation to different projects. There is very good coverage of her "Google doodle". Other mentions are in less depth, but she certinaly has aprofessional profile as an illustrator/comics artist I'm not sure how the nominator missed her bing mentioned in The Independent, the Comics Alliance, in Elle India and the Financial Post. While the sources could be more in depth, she certainly has a professional presence and has some coverage.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 16:12, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't know what to say other than that these sources didn't show up in the first few pages of Google search results when I searched "Devaki Neogi"--what did show up was promotional outlets advertising her, but not providing the sort of neutral in-depth coverage we expect. I do want to point out that the elle.in article does not mention Devaki Neogi by name, and that the Financial Express and Independent sources merely namedrop her in connection with one work each. The coverage on Comics Alliance is the most significant of all provided sources, and even that one seems to just be an interview with a colleague of Neogi's that gives her some very warm shoutouts. I don't think there's any question that Neogi is an artist for graphic novels and that she has received some recognition in her career, but these mentions don't appear to quite be enough to meet WP:BASIC, WP:GNG Rosguill talk 17:40, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with you. I just wanted to comment that there is some up and coming notability based on mentions in good sources, but you are right, it is not in depth.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 01:21, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
