 * Delete as subject fails relevant guidelines due to lack of non-trivial coverage. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 22:07, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - I hate to pull out WP:Wax, but clans are generally notable and there are hundreds, if not thousands of related articles. I think once we find a source (likely scholarly in this instance) the article will be fine. DaltonCastle (talk) 23:43, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
 * what guideline supports your assertion. And what do you know about so-called "clans" of India? More, have you actually found a single reliable source for this particular alleged group? Yes, we certainly have many hundreds, perhaps thousands, of articles about social groups in India. They're largely complete rubbish and are gradually being either improved or binned. Just because a name exists does not make it encyclopaedic. I think you mean well with your comment but, really, it is very much ill-informed. - Sitush (talk) 11:12, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
 * - repinging due to typo above, sorry. - Sitush (talk) 11:13, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
