Kash Gauni

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not pass GNG or WP:CREATIVE notability guidelines. Claim to fame is a Non-notable film. Sources to back up this include IMDB, Youtube, and other Wikis which is 100% not appropriate. Submission originally made to AFC where it was declined multiple times for lack of notability. In short this submission is not appropriate for mainspace as indicated by 2 successful A7 speedy deletions previously in addition to the poor quality of this submission. Prod was turned down by the advocate for this article who seems to have a single minded fascination with the subject to the point that I have to wonder if a conflict of interest may exist between the editor and the subject.

 * Delete - IT guy turned script writer and actor. His first feature film primiered recently, but I fail to find anything that makes subject meet WP:GNG. Sam Sailor Sing 15:54, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't see any notability here, and have no problem with deletion of this article. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 16:17, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete there was only ever a faint hope at WP:AFC. This permalink shows my review of the article as it stood then. One day the person may be notable, just not yet. Fiddle   Faddle  16:54, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Do Not Delete Gauni story is not as it is been seen behind a keyboard. It has to be told to help it identify as notable person. It not any obsession as one of you suggest's neither any conflict of interest as other may say. Totally unfounded behind some text. It's determination to have collective intelligence applied. My assertion stands — Preceding unsigned comment added by DanVanKant (talk • contribs) 17:09, 24 June 2014‎  — DanVanKant (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete - as I stated on my talk page, while communicating with the article creator, the article subject fails the golden rule - apart from a few youtube interviews, there are pretty much no relevant results if you search for the name on Google. This person, with the current secondary sources available, is just not notable enough for a Wikipedia article. I fail to understand why it was recreated after so many other editors reached this conclusion too, and the page creator was aware of this. Add this to the general poor (potentially un-encyclopedic) quality of the article, and I endorse its deletion. -- BZTMPS ★ ·  (talk?   contribs?)  18:04, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 *  Do Not Delete  - that's exactly my point. Your points of ref are same searches on Internet where as there is more word of mouth notable references. It has taken me consistent effort to keep convincing so many editors but "hard work" pays off. Just to show that getting subjective does not derive your end results. Once can shrink and ref and get "Gauni" a start. Once they see even a one line mention others will build on it. How many people can be a firefighter, write books, make films and give everything away. That is notable and noble itself DanVanKant (talk) 18:50, 24 June 2014 (UTC)DanVanKantDanVanKant (talk) 18:50, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 *  Do Not Delete  This is where my challenge has been. Gauni is the first ethnic guy actually to achieve that and Rock Paper Dice Enter is the first commercially released 100% Canadian feature film of suspense thriller genre from City of Edmonton to released worldwide this is as confirmed by Global news live yesterday. My challenge has been how do we build on all that information. It is difficult to share all this to editors behind a keyboard.I see this as no diff than a civil rights movement in 60's or of LGBT acceptance. Canadian mainstream cinema started to change in 2014. its is landmarkDanVanKant (talk) 19:03, 24 June 2014 (UTC)DavVanKantDanVanKant (talk) 19:03, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 * This is not a vote. Attempting to make it look like there is multiple people voting for keeping will only unite the consensus against keeping.  Do not attempt to vote any more.  You may elaborate your viewpoint by making Comment remarks, but no more keeps. Hasteur (talk) 19:12, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

1. For "Gauni" I have been constantly seeking right reference. Lately his profile has started showing up in public there is There is hardly any reference of him being ethnic. There are two remarkable first's here - First Brown Volunteer Brown Firefighter for City of Brampton, there is reference about it with the City and Mayor's speeches but no way to present.Hence with the film itself Rock Paper Dice Enter the Mayor, Minister of Culture and The Senator from Ottawa were present on opening night of film Rock Paper Dice Enter. How many times one sees that on a opening night of film. The reason they were there because Gauni has that notability of what he is doing for community. This has been in news and when I had references from Senate of Canada making that clear mention and one Editor thought of it as it was with poor intent 2. For "Gauni" My other right references are his Bibliography. The book is part of Five star good read. Harper Collins also has references of more stuff coming out soon but hard to present 3. For "Gauni" My other right references are his volunteer work. Part of his Heart and Stroke is public but the other part I cannot reference back is part "Million Dollar" pledge team There are no clever reference here. That is "correct" because I am presenting what is in public domain. I have no accessibility to all other references to be presented here but I have sincerely tried to connect dots I rest the case on what is Wikipedia mandate and respect itDanVanKant (talk) 20:03, 24 June 2014 (UTC)DanVanKantDanVanKant (talk) 20:03, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 * CommentI hope this is right way of defense. I am getting advise from very cool Editors. So lets do this;
 * Delete per nom. This nomination is pretty well grounded in policy, and I agree with every point made. ♥ Solarra ♥ ♪ 話 ♪   ߷  ♀ 投稿 ♀  04:29, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete No evidence of notability has been provided. This person may be talented, and may become notable in the future. If so, that will be the time to write a Wikipedia biography. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  03:18, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
