The result was keep. In addition to the fairly clear consensus, the article has been quite dramatically changed since the nomination, to the extent that the original nomination reason is no longer valid; the article now follows policy per MOS:DABNAME.

Mahajan

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No one is working on the article. The user who created this article is inactive for a decade. Can't find any source on the google. The talk page messages are serious issues, and there is no way to find out what's true about the subject. Hence, it cannot be improved for now.

 * Delete Appears to be a surname. No reliable sources. pburka (talk) 11:32, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep the new dab version of the article. pburka (talk) 12:25, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - original research Spiderone  17:35, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - the last section only, as a surname dab (I've converted it thusly in this revision]. If this kind of page must be at "Foo (surname)" (doubt it), Mahajan (surname) is available for a move. Best, Usedtobecool ☎️ 07:21, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , I liked your edit. It now looks better. But, Mahajan is not only a surname. There are some people also who are called Mahajans as also told at the talk page in this thread. I think this should also be addressed. What's your opinion on this? Lightbluerain ❄ (Talk | contribs)  09:10, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , as you said there are no sources to write a proper article, we can only address that problem when we have the sources. For now, what we have is a number of notable people with Wikipedia articles who share the term as their surname, which is enough for a index page, but no more. We build Wikipedia one step at a time with what sources we do have, IMO. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 09:31, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , right. I agree.  Lightbluerain ❄ (Talk | contribs)  09:38, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
