Dhruba Joetirmoya Gope

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non notable police officer. Fails WP:GNG (Lacks significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject). There are 31 refs in the article, all of them are routine coverage & just mentioned the person name (passing mention), some of refs even doesn't mentioned the person name & others are directory. The Bangladesh Police Medal-Service (bpm-seba) isn't a notable award (not enough for a standalone article), every year at least 100+ police personal receive this award. The person who created this article, looks like very close to the subject, just look at this photo took by article creator. This article was speedy deleted twice on bnwiki. আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 00:53, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete regardless of any possible minor notability, this article is too much like a promotional press release for an encyclopedia  DGG ( talk ) 03:44, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

Though I don't thing so. Let's wait to add more references. Bangla wiki will be back soon. And you deleted the bangla wiki and that means that you have personal connection with him. Sorry to say. --Khonika (talk) 04:55, 1 April 2020 (UTC) -- Sock master (Sockpuppet investigations/Khonika)
 * Delete I'd like to point out to just because  has deleted this article on another Wiki in no way mean's that he has a "personal connection" with the subject as he has correctly recognized that Dhruba Joetirmoya Gope does not meet bith Bangla and English Wiki's notability standards.

 * Comment, this afd looks like it may be heading for a "delete" but i note that Gope has received the Bangladesh Police Medal (Service) which could go towards WP:ANYBIO as only 30 ("Police awards 2020: The number of medallists decreases to one-third") to 100 ("349 cops get awards for best service") are issued each year? other editors' thoughts please?

 * Thank you. It's not a well-known and significant award e.g. not like Ekushey Padak. Number decrease does not mean its became significant. I'm sure not just in Bangladesh, every country's police has this type of award, it's given by government doesn't mean everyone who received are automatically notable. otherwise we can start creating thousand of thousand article like this. The person shouldn't get an automatic article just because person received Bangladesh Police Medal (Service). And for Dhruba Joetirmoya Gope, You won't find even one significant coverage in reliable sources (only some passing mention). --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 22:18, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
