As the article creator you are usually expected to vote keep. – Cupper 52 Discuss! 13:24, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep: The elephant is highly notable and has more than enough coverage from reliable sources and I would strongly discourage anyone from !voting delete before we've had anyone here who speaks malayalam other than me 06:01, 15 January 2021 (UTC) Kichu🐘 Discuss 16:47, 15 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep: The subject is a notable figure in Kerala and a major participant in Thrissur Pooram. Also the elephant has recieved broad coverage from multiple reliable sources that can pass the WP:GNG. Bestwishes Poppi fied  talk 05:57, 15 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Comment: I doubt that proper steps are not followed here while nominating an article for deletion. Between this edit and this edit, the nominator only took 2 minutes for nominating. The user hasnt done proper WP:Before before doing the nomination. Kichu🐘 Discuss 16:47, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * It's entirely possible that the nominator did a BEFORE search before creating this AfD. Edits are quite close together but that, in itself, isn't evidence that suggests that one wasn't done. Spiderone  15:25, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The nominator has also nominated another stub article for deletion where he took only 1 minute. He also blindly says Elephants don’t meet notability guidelines here. Wikipedias notability criteria clearly says a topic is notable to have its own standalone article if it has enough coverage from multiple sources. Here the elephant is covered in multiple independent sources. I request the nominator to clarify what he meant by elephants not notable here. Kichu🐘 Discuss 16:47, 15 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep - References on the page show WP:GNG is met. Category:Elephants and its 17 sub-categories would suggest that elephants can be notable. --John B123 (talk) 17:35, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, passing WP:GNG Spiderone  18:52, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, evidence of notability has been provided. Suggest some clean-up for tone but article is fine otherwise.      StarM 14:27, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
