Fails WP: ANYBIO and WP:NAUTHOR. References include Google search and an alternative Wikipedia - neither of which are acceptable or reliable secondary sources. Another, whilst in Hindi, appears to be just the lyrics to one of his poems (nothing else). Dan arndt (talk) 12:49, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete as failing WP:NAUTHOR and WP:GNG. Dom from Paris (talk) 12:54, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete It fails WP:author. Whenever I see a a user that is only interested in editing one article, I am a little suspicious of WP:COI So said The Great Wiki Lord. (talk) 13:55, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as per above - no independent, reliable sources. Jmertel23 (talk) 16:40, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Remove Deletion as there is no such strong source is available at this time but Wikipedia can suggest that from where I can get the proof. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonnubh (talk • contribs) 22:05, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment If no such sources exist, then the subject doesn't meet the requirements to be included in the encyclopedia. Jmertel23 (talk) 14:00, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment Literally everything that could potentially be challenged requires a strong third-party source (newspapers, news magazines, book reviews). Onus is on you to provide those sources, and if they don't exist, the article cannot be kept. —Jeremy v^_^v  Bori! 19:08, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Not Delete I don't think that this article should delete, the deletion request should be remove. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.207.176.23 (talk) 04:27, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment Okay, but why should we keep this article? You have not provided a valid reason. Storm  Content  15:46, 27 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - The fact that at least half of the sources are Google search results tells me that there's really no "there" there. The other two sources I can assess (Refs 2 and 4 are identical) are a barebones profile listing and a Goodreads blurb that I'm fairly certain was written by the author or someone on his behalf. —Jeremy v^_^v  Bori! 19:08, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination. I've waited a couple days for the article creator to find RS indicating notability for this teenaged writer; could probably have been speedied. Strong whiff of sockpuppetry from the two "keep" posts above. Wikipedia is not the place to launch your writing career. Donutron (talk) 04:36, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Most of the given reference are of google search results. Other also not reliable.-- Godric ki Kothri talk to me 07:24, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Not DeleteHe is having more than 6000 followers in his facebook page https://www.facebook.com/shaunakchakrabortyofficial so this article should not delete. with this deletion request. Shivangi646 (talk)
 * That argument is useless as we don't accept Facebook followers (which can be bought) as evidence of notability. —Jeremy v^_^v  Bori! 21:43, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

 * That link is virtually content-free, and explicitly noted to have been contributed by a user of the site as opposed to a serious journalist or book reviewer. —Jeremy v^_^v  Bori! 20:23, 30 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Comment: This diff is particularly illuminating. —Jeremy v^_^v  Bori! 20:53, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
