Nisha Rajagopal

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not notable enough worthy of an encyclopaedia article. Nisha Rajagopal is a carnatic music vocalist. There are thousands of such vocalists in India who just recites centuries old works in Carnatic music. There is no original contribution, nor any noteworthy work which received significant attention. The awards won are not significant either. Bobgali (talk) 10:59, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep this is a strange nomination. The nominator says the artist just performs old classics and does not do anything new. That is not a reason for deletion, unless we plan to remove articles on classical performers everywhere. Far from being non-notable she has been covered in mainstream Indian press and has achieved sufficient international renown to be invited to perform at the Salzburg Festival.

 * Keep seems like there is enough news coverage to meet WP:GNG and WP:CREATIVE. She is also the first recipent of the Saregama M.S. Subbulakshmi Award (in 2011) - there is enough online to indicate that the award is notable as well. Netherzone (talk) 23:21, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep as has significant coverage in reliable sources such as The Hindu and coverage (dead linked but AGF) in Sruti arts magazine so the article deserves to be kept as passing WP:GNG, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 17:27, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
