Padma Rao Sundarji

 * – ( View AfD View log )

non-notable journalist. One fairly low level award, and one non-important book. Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:GNG  DGG ( talk ) 20:42, 19 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Weak keep and clean up, per WP:BASIC - there is some coverage of her career, e.g. Hindustan Times, 2013, FirstPost, 2013, NewsLaundry, 2020, as well as several reviews of her book: Business Standard, 2015, News18, 2015, Hindustan Times, 2015, Los Angeles Review of Books, 2015, Daily Mirror, 2019, so coverage from multiple independent and reliable sources appears to have been WP:SUSTAINED.

 * can you find a link to the NYT review? The question is to what extent her notability is ONEEVENT DGG ( talk ) 00:25, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I also searched "Padma Rao", because she is sometimes referred to by this name, and the only possible NYT-related hit I found is a Padma Rao who wrote a letter to the editor in 1994, but it is not clearly her. My !vote is weak, but there appears to be non-routine coverage of her journalism career and multiple reviews of her book (also including her response to and a reply from the Business Standard reviewer), so there appears to be more than one event for which multiple independent and reliable sources have found her 'worthy of notice' over time. Beccaynr (talk) 01:20, 20 September 2021 (UTC) Update: She wrote a 2004 opinion article in the IHT/NYT. Beccaynr (talk) 01:29, 20 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep per Beccaynr - there seems to be enough independent coverage of her to pass WP:GNG NHCLS (talk) 11:55, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
 * 's extended search more logically leads to a delete: what she wrote in various places is opinion essays. For notability as an author the rule has been that several books are needed is most cases.  DGG ( talk ) 04:36, 24 September 2021 (UTC).

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak keep per . @, a more detailed source analysis could sway my opinion if you are willing to do one. 4meter4 (talk) 22:31, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep sufficient references from independent news media and hence the article should be retained. Advait.kansal (talk) 09:04, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
