The result was delete. The one "keep" opinion admits that the topic "may lack WP:SIGCOV", which makes it into an argument for deletion.  Sandstein  19:58, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

Documents on the History of Religion and Law of Pre-modern Nepal

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable research project. Fails WP:GNG. None of the references provide in depth, independent coverage of the project - the sources are almost all from the university or written by the people involved in the project.

The article was deleted under WP:G11 but reinstated, seemingly as the author could not see how it only served to promote the project. I had tagged specific issues in the deleted version. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 11:33, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete - clearly does not meet WP:GNG. Clearly an attempt to promote the project, as was recreated almost immediately after the original piece was deleted due to advertising.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:26, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep with a copy edit. The project with rare 60,000 historic documents including its translation cannot be considered a non-notable project. It may lack WP:SIGCOV, but this project definitely is signifiant, not only for itself, but also as a research material for other encyclopedic articles. Copy edit is necessary to simplify the content and make it more accessible to other readers -especially for those who can use this article as a starting point for history related research of Nepal. nirmal (talk) 08:59, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
 * This sounds like arguing that its important. For the subject to be notable, it has to have been written about in depth by reliable, independent sources. Where's the evidence that this is the case? Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 11:32, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
 * @, May be, but the fact remains so. nirmal (talk) 08:24, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
