Ipsita Pati

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This promotional autobiography has a few sources, but does not really establish notability, and has tone issues. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:59, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep: Meets WP:GNG. Sources are cited in the article. I guess, your concerns has been addressed. Although it initially gave an impression of autobio, I'm inclined to believe that is not the case. It seems like a fan created this page (,, , one can find more such instances here).  Anup   [Talk]  15:00, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - It either is an autobiography, or someone is using the subject's name. (It is surprisingly common for a new editor to use the name of a real person because they conflate an article name with a user name.)  The only real question is whether general notability guidelines are met.  If the community thinks that they are met, we can keep.  Not all autobiographies have to be deleted.

 * Comment - In fact, the user name has been challenged as that of a real person. If the user is Ipsita Pati, then it is an autobiography, and there is nothing wrong with her name, only with the conflict of interest.  If the user is someone else, then it isn't an autobiography, but they have to change their user name.  Robert McClenon (talk) 15:26, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
 * I posted that username-violation message. Looking at the spamming of comments on subject's facebook page, I'm pretty much convinced that it is someone else. I will wait for community consensus, I just thought may be your concerns has been addressed and you will think of withdraw. It is all right if you want more opinions on this nomination.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment - I'm not planning to withdraw this one. The fact that I think it is an autobiography is secondary.  I have notability and tone concerns.  I understand that consensus will be against me.  Robert McClenon (talk) 01:41, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep. Looks like a well-sourced article with good depth of coverage; note the profile about the subject in The Hindu and the subject's prominent role in a newsworthy incident.  A  Train ''talk 11:01, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep I'm not sure where the tone issues are in the article, so I assume someone cleaned them up already. I agree that the article passes GNG with multiple RS over time. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:06, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
