Punjabi Music Awards

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a regional music award, referenced entirely to its own primary source content about itself rather than any evidence of reliable source coverage in media. And the article is so poorly maintained that it's spent the entire month of November containing an extended and poorly-written biographical sketch of one individual musician, not to mention the fact that the ceremony which occurred eight months ago is still described as an upcoming event. Music awards are not automatically deemed notable just because their own self-published website verifies that they exist -- they need to be the subject of coverage in media that are independent of their own public relations efforts, but this isn't showing any evidence of that.

 * Keep- seems legit, I've found several mentions of it in the news. For example: --Rusf10 (talk) 23:37, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment, hi (as you know, but thought i would mention this for wikineweditors:)), being a regional anything doesn't preclude a subject from being in wp, neither is a poorly maintained article (just fixt it and place it on your watchlist:)), what counts are independent sources that discuss the subject, unfortunately the article doesn't presently have them, hopefully some editors will rectify this.

 * Delete per WP:TNT. Yes, the award may be notable, but no sources are available and the article get F- for effort. I think we should expect better from encyclopedia entries that this unsourced list of award categories. K.e.coffman (talk) 07:11, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom and K.e., above; no independent notability shown. Kierzek (talk) 21:24, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
