Fails WP:GNG and WP:MANOTE, references are not reliable or are not significant enough. —*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 01:36, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep. As per emerging consensus that she is notable, as people stated in the AFD that closed just a few days ago. CT55555 (talk) 13:27, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * That AFD was closed because the nominator was a sock. The keep !vote by the Manpreet can be discounted as they are now locked for abusing multiple accounts, which is related to this article on the Simple English Wikipedia. There are sources for the subject's world records, but I do not see any notability beyond just world records. —*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 01:32, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pointing that out. This wasn't a drive-by vote, I made improvements to the article recently. That said, I am not confident in my source assessment, and yet I've seen enough to think is is notable. I'm open minded. It does still seem like she passes WP:ANYBIO and WP:BASIC, but tell me if you disagree with both of those and I will reconsider. CT55555 (talk) 14:32, 31 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Weak keep - per WP:BASIC and a combination of sources with secondary context and commentary, e.g. Want to make self-defence accessible to women: Guinness record holder Kiran to TNM (The News Minute, 9 Mar 2019), At 45, Kiran Uniyal is teaching people how to defend themselves with some killer moves (The New Indian Express, 6 Apr 2019), In pictures: 11 women who were the 'firsts' in their field in 2021 (Business Standard, 7 Mar 2021). The article needs clean up, but these sources can also help with expansion of the article with biographical and career information. Beccaynr (talk) 19:56, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
