Dutta Chaudhuri Chronicles

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This book does not seem to pass either WP:NBOOK or WP:GNG. I can find next to no mention of it in any secondary sources, let alone reliable ones. Moreover, it appears to be a family history, and as such is almost certainly not going to be of wider interest. Delete. Vanamonde93 (talk) 12:59, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - seems to be a self-published book with no reviews and WorldCat does not know of it. Lady  of  Shalott  19:56, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. As far as I can tell, there's no coverage out there for this book that isn't primary or in a place that Wikipedia would consider to be unusable. Nothing showed up in the WP:INDIA news search and a look at the book's info shows that it was published via Book1One, a printing company that will print anything that is sent to them. Now being self-published doesn't mean that it's non-notable, but it does help explain why there's no coverage out there. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  07:14, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Might also want to take a look at Dutta Vansa Mala, which has similar issues with notability. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  07:16, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Actually looks like the editor has created a slew of articles around the same subject, Dutta families, so I'm going to pull WP:INDIA into this to see if these families are notable. Offhand this looks like one person trying to insert their family's history into Wikipedia. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  07:17, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I've asked for help with WP:INDIA with the other articles rather than rush to take them to AfD, since some of them seem like they might be notable, but I can't really find any coverage in English - something that's common with India related articles, especially ones about Indian history.

 * Brief Note Someone claiming to be the author of the book blanked part of the page and left this message for me.  Ete ethan  (talk)  01:07, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment I just issued a level-2 warning to the individual in question and informed him that any further speedy deletion attempts will be considered disruptive. I suggest if he does it again, a level-3 or level-4 warning be issued. Safiel (talk) 06:57, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
