Ghanada

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A non-notable fiction character with no evidence of notability. The sources confirm the existence but not that the subject is notable. GSS &#x202F;&#128172; 07:53, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

There are enough sources for this article to EXIST, though you may argue that it may not have enough sources for Verification. This article must NOT be deleted and it will be improved, more sources will be collected in the near future.

Ghanada is one of the biggest literary character of the Indian Sub-Continent. This article MUST STAY.--Suborno Sabbir (talk) 05:49, 22 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep. As well as the sources cited in the article there's an in-depth analysis here, and that's just the first source that I looked at after clicking "books" above. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:02, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep - I am persuaded by the arguments and sources provided in this AfD that enough sourcers WP:NEXIST to show notability. The article is pretty young, so incorporating these references over time will improve the article, and deletion is not required. -2pou (talk) 23:34, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep The sources appear to be reliable for the subject matter. The article is well-written and informative, and based on the discussion above, there is strong feeling that this subject is notable in South Asia.--Concertmusic (talk) 13:44, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
