 * Delete The RS has "Santosh KC is a Nepalese folk singer who won the Radio Kantipur National Music Award for Best Male Folk Singer in 2075 BS for his song "Daai Ki Saali". He produces Teej songs every year which receive millions of views on youtube. " That is enough for a stub, except these UPE articles don't ever stop there. This is usually what happens after these articles get through AFC/AFD. It's just not worth it; readers who'd be looking for this topic will already know all we can say currently.

 * Keep Well if the information is enough for a stub, please let it be a stub. I Will research more on him to make it better. His works for us Nepali has a meaning as he is working to preserve our Traditional folk songs.Milan260 (talk) 09:58, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Move to draft - With a good faith on the main editor (Milan260), I think there is no harm to keep it in draft space for a while. nirmal (talk) 05:01, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Radio Kantipur National Music Award is an award given by an FM station. The source is primary. We don't have an article for the award. I don't want to say it's never enough because I am wary of the precedent. Music Awards are usually given out by FM stations; and at least some of them used to mean something; may still do. But there are far too many awards, none seem to be regular, and it's hard to say whether any of them has absolute integrity/independence. See, for example, this. So, the award, in my opinion, is not enough for WP:NMUSIC but I think it is enough for WP:ANYBIO especially with an RS saying, in a piece about Teej music, that this is one of the artists who produces popular Teej music annually. Not a slam dunk but as a way of extending significant AGF and erring on the side of inclusion. Such flexibility is, of course, not warranted when UPE and socking is involved, as it is here.

 * I would like to clarify that I am not getting paid to write this article. I am doing this as a part of my project for my journalism class. Had I get paid or if I get paid for writing an article I would have no problem mentioning them. I have made a list of 10 random people from the "Nepali Lok Dohori" sector, they are well known in Nepal, however, have no internet presence whatsoever. I intend to write this article and present them along with my project.Milan260 (talk) 07:15, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Seems the main author Milan260 has not updated the article since a month. So,I am changing my vote to Delete because the likelyhood of improvement in future is thin.nirmal (talk) 07:00, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
 * , if you are not paid, where did you get the information in the early life section of the article and his exact birthdate? There's also this. I don't know how anybody's journalism could be helped by writing crap supported by crap (what kind of journalists know whole life stories of barely notable people but don't know what sources are reliable?). Why didn't and don't you go to a library and find usable sources for your articles? Usedtobecool ☎️ 07:32, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
