Smriti Morarka

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The subject clearly fails WP:BASIC, WP:GNG, notability for individuals, WP:BLP1E: Clause 1 and falls under 15 minutes of fame. The article appears as an attempt to create a backlink to promote "Tanruvi", a brand operated by the subject as the subject individual has no standalone internet presence apart from the brand. The article is prominently highlighting one award which was also awarded considering the output of the brand of the subject. Further, 5 refs have been mentioned out of which, belong to the award coverage and conspicuously mention the conferment of the award for the brand being operated by the subject individual. It is to be duly noted that while the first ref is from Twitter (Social Media), the second ref is just an image. Further, is not based on the subject and seems like it has been inserted to increase the number of refs. Further, & are interviews being given by the subject and hence they will be considered as WP:PRIMARY and violating WP:INDEPENDENT.

 * Comment The user who created this article is adding irrelevant information to influence the number of refs and cites. For instance, in the Life segment of the subject article, the user added - Varanasi or Kashi is known to have been, and continues to be a famous weaving center for luxury textiles. The Varanasi handloom sector has been in a state of decline, and has been the subject of efforts of films like Bunkar: The Last of the Varanasi Weavers and work to revive it by the government of India. If the user intends to talk about Varanasi, it should be done at Varanasi and NOT in the life segment of subject article which is undergoing deletion.

 * Keep per WP:ANYBIO#1. See also the apparent consensus that Nari Shakti Puraskar qualifies individuals for ANYBIO#1 at Articles for deletion/Sonia Jabbar. userdude 05:11, 27 May 2020 (UTC) Note: this may be considered a canvassed !vote from IP136.228.175.221 at Articles for deletion/Sonia Jabbar. userdude 11:01, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep I have previously argued that Nari Shakti Puraskar is enough for ANYBIO#1. Someone had mentioned that this nominator was targeting Nari Shakti Puraskar winners. Now that they have been blocked as a sock, with the SPI casepage specifically mentioning bad conduct at AFDs, this should be speedily kept. On article's merit, it is still a Keep from me per ANYBIO#1. Usedtobecool ☎️ 21:02, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
