There is a rise and a trend among entries from India that try and create SEO tricks to influence engines for proper indexing. In a way, there are advertising agencies that are creating wiki articles for not-so-established models and actors. In majority of the cases, these articles sound like a cut-paste prose form of their resume. They have no citation, notability and in most cases lack any published external link. This wiki bio fits under the trend described above. As a platform of repute and source of encyclopedic knowledge, I am on a mission to form a like-minded team of wiki admins/users to identify such biographic 'fake' wiki and mark them for Afd. In most cases they are db-spam —Preceding unsigned comment added by Socialprof (talk • contribs) 10:22, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep per Google News search above. Multiple independent sources over a period of several years tends to indicate notability.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 18:11, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep The article needs to be sourced and a bit of wikification and copyediting would help, but the subject clearly meets the WP:ENTERTAINER standard as demonstrated by coverage in mainstream media. Aside: The nominator seems well-meaning but should perhaps take some time to familiarize himself with wikipedia's policy on notability before nominating any more articles. An AFD nomination should specify why the particular article fails the relevant notability guideline; and should not a be a mission statement against "SEO tricks" and undeserving class of subjects. A wiki bio is not a reward (or punishment) for its subject, but rather a service to our readers who may want to learn more about a notable person. Abecedare (talk) 18:54, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable enough per Google news search. Priyanath talk 03:25, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Temporary Keep Needs references soon or else can be nominated again for AfD. She does figure in Mumbai's drama circuits quite frequently. --Deepak D'Souza 08:41, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
