The result was delete. I find most of the keep arguments to be particularly unconvincing. Notability can not based on, historical importance claimed in the article, it must be based on WP:RS. Bottom line, no references, no article. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:52, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep - Here is his page in Marathi mr:नृसिंह_राजारामपंत_कुळकर्णी (which notes his birth name was "NR Singh Rajarampant Kulkarni"). His Mukteshawar Dal was one of two organizations which became the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, and ultimately the BJP. This fact suggests a significant role for the subject in history.

 * , you know that I can read Marathi, right? I work in these domains and there's nothing except trivial scatter mentions of founding Mukteshawar Dal, which got assumed into the folds of RSS. Also, RSS is not BJP. &#x222F; WBG converse 16:26, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I've read a little bit about the area, it seems to me that both the Hindu Rashtra Sena and the Mukteshwar Dal are encyclopedic. If neither of these were encyclopedic, then I agree that there is not enough material in reliable sources for an article on Pachlegaonkar Maharaj to pass V/NOR/NPOV. If only one were encyclopedic, then this article could redirect to that one - but if his role was significant enough, this article might be useful useful. If both are encyclopedic, then this article seems to serve the readers as a disambiguation of the individuals roles in multiple, encyclopedic organizations, so long as his role passes V/NOR/NPOV. My feeling is that both of the organizations are encyclopedic, and that both are important enough that their founders are good candidates for articles, even if those articles are very short. I'm happy to change my !vote if I'm likely wrong. Smmurphy(Talk) 17:34, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * , those three topics can be written in about two lines at Rashtriya_Swayamsevak_Sangh. Also, WP:NOPAGE. &#x222F; WBG converse 08:15, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Smmurphy(Talk) 17:48, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unreferenced, English has no hits in Google Scholar and nothing that suggests notability in Google Books, just some mentions in passing. This sub-stub makes a lot of important claims, but they need referencing. --<sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:30, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - as per Smmurphy, and the historical importance claimed in the article is likely to make him notable. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:03, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Mark as stub -- He may be significant, but I cannot tell from this stub. If Smmurphy is correct he should be notable, but we need an article on Mukteshawar Dal to establish that.  Peterkingiron (talk) 15:21, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
