Rafih Filli

spammy pr piece about a non notable business dude who lacks meaningful coverage. The sources are less than stellar and largely paid for seo spam pieces. Praxidicae (talk) 13:07, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete — non notable individual seeking Wikipedia presence. No real coverage in reliable sources. Celestina007 (talk) 13:24, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Actually I don’t understand what’s happening here. As a beginner, I don’t get any guidance from experienced users. Everyone looking with a prejudice. Also Rafi Filli is one of the famous entrepreneur from India, he is the founder of Filli Cafe. And he got an award. That’s why i created his article. There are enough reliable sources i found when i search him on google. Seriously I’m not a PR or something, I’m not getting paid to edit on Wikipedia. Also I request experienced users to collect details about him and please complete the article Ravishingstar (talk) 16:35, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Explain Anyone explain why this nominated for deletion? Ravishingstar (talk) 06:19, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
 * It's literally explained on this very page you've edited twice. Praxidicae (talk) 12:27, 14 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete. Promotional piece about the subject. Non-notable person. Lapablo (talk) 12:36, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete seems to be more about the Cafe and its menu than the person. Fails WP:GNG  Velella  Velella Talk 13:06, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
 * What ?? Have you ever searched about his cafes? Ok ok let show something here.. when i found Wikipedia as eligible articles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayyappan_Sreekumar article like this are notable??. Ravishingstar (talk) 06:44, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
 * So, there are other poor articles that need looking at. That is no excuse to keep even more poor articles  Velella  Velella Talk 07:54, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
 * that’s not my question.. i asked does the article like that are still notable??. There is nothing personal with my articles. I’m creating articles with an interest. But you guys must be loyal for everything. No partiality. He (Rafi Fillih) is a notable business man. May be my lack of experience in Wikipedia might be the reason why the article imperfect. If you can please update it. I have searched ‘’kerala entrepreneur’s in Wikipedia’’ and i got some articles which are not notable anymore. But still a real entrepreneur with an award still non notable. Totally disappointed. I *Delete (talk) 16:06, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I don't understand the question. If you are asking whether I did searches, then the answer is yes I did and found nothing notable. If you are asking whether it is fair that some articles in Wikipedia do not appear to be notable, so why not keep mine, then the answer is the one I have already given. This has nothing to do with partiality. I personally know nothing about the individual or his Cafes, I simply judge articles against the rules and guidelines of Wikipedia. Maybe one day I will get to some of those that you have alluded to, but my time is limited and there are more than 6 million articles. As a footnote, in the few cases where the creator has carried on arguing at AfD rather than providing better sources, it has often been the case that they are being paid for their efforts. Is that the case here?  Velella  Velella Talk 16:38, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
 * i said so many times that I’m not getting paid. Anyway i will send the sources now. You can decid whether it will be exist or not.. https://m.indulgexpress.com/life-style/food/2017/nov/24/rafih-filli-the-man-who-made-a-fortune-selling-tea-4897.amp ,

 * More than half of these sources are black hat seo spam/fake or PR published interviews. Praxidicae (talk) 17:28, 15 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete fails WP:GNG. And before you ask Ravishingstar I actually live in Dubai. Unfortunately the subject doesn't meet our notability requirements. Sorry. Glen 07:54, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete not notable article, looks promotional. Nika2020 (talk) 21:56, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Notice Anyway i would like to inform the admins who commented here. Why don’t allow such kind of other non notable people’s bio ? I have searched about this article.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayyappan_Sreekumar references are published recently like PR work. Also the article is not fair. Why you aren’t not take caring such kind of articles? I got this when i search entrepreneur articles from kerala. He is just a web developer. Ravishingstar (talk) 20:40, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
