Shailender Singh Monti

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Local politician. Coverage is routine and there's no indication the subject meets WP:NPOLITICIAN or the WP:GNG. Deprodded by based on the size of Delhi, but I don't see how this changes the fact that Singh is a municipal official (and therefore is not inherently notable per NPOL/WP:POLOUTCOMES), or the level of non-routine coverage about him. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 23:26, 14 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. City council is not an automatic WP:NPOL pass regardless of the city's size — at the municipal level of political office, notability depends on being reliably sourceable as the subject of substantial press coverage, and nobody gets an automatic notability freebie just for existing. Delhi is certainly large and prominent enough that a substantial and properly sourced article would probably be kept — but this is based entirely on primary sources (the website of the city council and the website of his political party) with no evidence of media coverage shown whatsoever. Again, it's the media coverage about him, not simple verification in primary sources that he exists, that gets a city councillor over NPOL. Bearcat (talk) 23:51, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. As above, City council is not an automatic WP:NPOL.No RS here to substantiate notability. Possibly there is some in Indian Media. Deathlibrarian (talk) 02:46, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
