Jagdish Rai Singh
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log )

No references confer author notability, and Google only pulled up links to buy his books. The only reference (nightsandweekends) on the page is a user-generated review website. No reliable secondary sources for his name, or any of the book titles. The previous AFD was kept: the logic that "it's hard for authors to get reviews" is completely opposite of current policy. Specifically, I searched the top 3 Guyanese news sites (Stabroek, Kaieteur, and Guyana Times) for the name, and nothing came up, and Guyanese news sources are VERY quick to pick up on anyone demonstrating success in their field, especially abroad. The language of the article probably speaks for itself. Estheim (talk) 01:28, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
