Infosys multilevel car parking

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The article is a close paraphrase of the abstract of one of its sources (the 2018 fib bulletin paper, which was written by Ajit Vasant Bhate, an employee of the company that made the building). That wouldn't necessarily be a huge issue as it could be reworded, but I'm not convinced that there are the independent secondary sources needed to establish notability according to WP:GNG or WP:NBUILDING. The fib bulletin source is obviously not independent (it's written by the company that made the building); the articles about the awards it was nominated for are primary (they are published by the organisations giving out the awards), and the ETCIO source is a six-sentence mini article that looks like a rehashed press release. Google doesn't give many hits, and I'm not seeing any with significant depth which were not authored by the company that made the building. Girth Summit  (blether) 11:58, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep: FYI, I started the article. Possibly the nominator has no idea about fib. Any qualified engineers with sufficient professional background can join it. The Bulletin 87 of the fib (2018) where this facility was mentioned as a award nominee has no mention of any person named Ajit Vasant Bhate; it only mentions that the jury was led by this guy.Regardless of fib mention, this article has WP:SIGCOV in multiple newspaper and publication from professional organizations. If you refer the citations, it easily passes WP:NBUILD because of its architectural and technological breakthrough. For the sake of awareness to the nominator- some other infra-structures that fib award was provided or nominated are Aurora Melbourne Central, Island Tower Sky Club, National Portrait Gallery (Australia),Shenzhen Broadcasting Center Building,AC Hotel Bella Sky Copenhagen,Térénez bridge.

 * The 2018 fib source that I was referring to, which seems to be the source for most of the information in the article, is this one. Ajit Vasant Bhate is given as its sole author, and the company that made the building is noted if you click on the 'Authors and Affiliations' tab. I am sure that many notable buildings have won fib awards in the past; I don't accept that all buildings nominated for such an award are automatically notable, and I'm still seeing a dearth of in-depth coverage in independent secondary sources.

 * -I am not sure why you are obsessed with fib alone. Fib is only adding its notabilty. Other recognitions from Indian concrete insitute and Architecute foundation is a proof that this building passes WP:GNG unless you find a deliberate COI again. Best! nirmal (talk) 11:25, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
 * , I'm not obsessed with anything, but that source is where most of the information in the article comes from - indeed, it presents the same information, in the same order, as the abstract of that paper - the fact that it was written by an employee of the company that built it is significant. I don't see how the other sources establish a GNG pass, it's getting brief mentions in short articles about it being nominated for an award. The only in-depth coverage that I can see is in affiliated sources. Girth Summit  (blether)  12:21, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom and Dexxtrall - fails NBUILDING. No notability found, as far as I can see just a concrete-built car park, to which there are many thousands worldwide. Doesn't look too dissimilar to a brutalist-designed car park near my birth place, yet that didn't win an award...Nightfury 11:36, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 * That is funny logic and purely your opinion. How many of the car park near your house got nomination in artchitecture or engineering competitions? Oh and national awards? nirmal (talk) 10:52, 11 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete. I agree with GirthSummit's assessment of the sources. The industry awards/nominations by themselves do not appear to confer notability, and the other coverage is trivial. Seems to be just another parking garage. -- <strong style="color:blue">Kinu <i style="color: red">t</i>/<i style="color:red">c</i> 20:10, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
