Polachirackal Tharakan family

Delete This article was full of unsourced puffery and cheap self-promotion. Most likely created by a family member with a vested interest. The majority of the references had broken links and led no where; the rest were poor and unreliable. Had a lot of irrelevant and contentious material and unsourced petty claims, unrelated to the subject matter possibly included only to increase the article length. Performed a thorough clean up, corrected grammar mistakes, removed all the unsourced and irrelevant content. Left only the references with some credibility and contents based on that. But this leads once to the inescapable conclusion that this article, its contents and the people mentioned (except perhaps a bishop for whom there is a separate page to which the same old unsourced puffery was copied and hence needs cleanup) are insignificant with low importance. Hence recommending to delete article as it does not add much value. Frazer591 (talk) 07:43, 25 June 2019 (UTC)

Delete 3 of the references left in the article are not verifiable. Did scour various websites providing book previews but did not find the relevant pages or any reference to the contents of the article. Anonymous ip 27.0.137.50 sneaked in and removed the Deletion Nomination tag from the article; but was reinstated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frazer591 (talk • contribs) 06:33, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
