 * Unfortunately, delete. There are no references to verify the content or establish notability. Although three items are listed in the references section, two are simply external links to an organization that (presumably) funded the project and a newspaper that (presumably) said something about it at the time it happened, but with no titles or other information, that can't be verified. The other reference at least includes a title, but a web search for that title as written finds only this Wikipedia article. Maybe someone who reads Hindi could search for the item using other likely terms, but that seems like an awfully big burden for some rescue-squad type. Even then, one source would probably not satisfy WP:GNG. Cnilep (talk) 02:05, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

I have collected some more references to the other newspaper articles-



















These papers have more than 39 million readers in India. Further I can produce you the documents signed by the Head Dept. of Linguistics BHU for organizing the survey. Documents for Pre and Post Seminar; Permission and LOA for survey by Chairman Tirwa. I think that is enough for notablity.

This is the second Linguistic Survey after Linguistic Survey of India done by George Abraham Grierson, in India so I think it should be here.--Satyam &#39;Sats&#39; (talk) 08:30, 29 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Move to Draft namespace clearly there are some sources; clearly the currently article needs to be completely rewritten; clearly there is at least one editor apparently willing to put in the work. Stuartyeates (talk) 08:34, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
