guinness record holders, like limca and the other non-notable awards here, aren't notable. i don't see any in depth coverage of Murtoza either as an athlete or anything else.

 * Keep: As he is having Guinness world record from official Guinness world record website. And also he is having good reliable news coverage. Chanakya Netha (talk) 04:02, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment The Guiness world record is for the number of knee strikes by a group in a minute. All he did was organize an event to have his students break the record.  That's definitely not a sign of individual notability, or even WP notability.  I'd have to do more research on the notability of the Indian awards he won, but right now I'd say I don't believe he meets WP:GNG or WP:MANOTE. Papaursa (talk) 17:21, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete After further research I have to say that I see no evidence to change my previous comment. There is a Dadasaheb Phalke Award that might confer notability, but it's for films.  There are also multiple awards that carry the  Dadasaheb Phalke name that are minor awards.  I don't see anything to make me believe he's notable for films, so I'm inclined to say the award he won was relatively minor--and seem to be based on his world record (which isn't even for an individual accomplishment).  I find it hard to believe that all of his students that participated in achieving that record are WP notable, so I don't think organizing the event confers WP notability.

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete as explained above. I've done one of these group Guinness World Record things, I'm not notable. I can't find much of anything beyond that event for this fellow. Oaktree b (talk) 00:35, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't see any evidence of a pass on WP:ATHLETE or WP:GNG, unless someone digs up more coverage. It basically shows two minor events: a local award and a team record, so I doubt it. LizardJr8 (talk) 02:36, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
