 * There has been a perpetual bias towards western content on wikipedia. This isn't the first time. The artist isn't the most important artist but has a considerable presence in Indian electronic dance music genre with large audience. Indian hip-hop and metal acts also face the same bias. I know no one will care because wikipedia remains largely a anglo-american biased portal but just wanted it to be noted that you people deem random useless american artists important and keep one line pages of them but can't do the same for non-american artists.

 * The above rant could be compelling, except the person who nominated the Ritviz article for deletion is also from India. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 01:52, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

I've argued many a times to prevent notable Indian articles getting deleted from Wikipedia. Also, this article fails the General notability guidelines to be on Wikipedia, there's no bias based on ethnicity.

 * Delete : Article is mostly promotional. Not enough reliable sources to establish notability. Coderzombie (talk) 17:30, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 *  Speedy Keep : The Article was written in a promotional way with majority of refs from youtube video only, I edited it as per wp:npov and add wp:rs like GQ India, The Telegraph (Kolkata), The Hindu and more, Now the article seems non Promotional with sufficient wp:sigcov.Dtt1 (talk) 20:13, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep - The nominator and "Delete" voter above seem not to have searched for sources very carefully. The "Speedy Keep" voter misused that term (see WP:CSK) but made a compelling argument on how the musician has received coverage in some reliable media sources in India. The article is still too dependent on links to Youtube and similar stuff, but there is at least enough for a basic stub article. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 01:58, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete As per nom, the artist is not notable enough as of now. The article can be created at a later stage. Sidchakrab (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 04:37, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Per nom. Noobmaster29 (talk) 09:32, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Sidchakrab and Noobmaster29 have been blocked as sockpuppets of the nominator. Mz7 (talk) 23:10, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak keep "The Hindu" is doing its best "fluff for pay" impression in the sources, but despite that, there seems to be enough kinda-okay coverage from several quarters. (Note that nominator socked twice here to get this deletion through - see blocked editors just above; great approach, dude) -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 21:53, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
