Social India Conference 2011

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This is a professional conference and fails WP:GNG in part because it is WP:MILL. There are no reviews about it online and it seems to be a typical fundraiser.

Although the lede says it is one of the biggest conferences in India for its field, it seems to be the first time this conference has ever been held and its webpage is rather sparse for such a grand claim.  Blue Rasberry   (talk)   13:58, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

This is a program which is started this year and will continue every year for support of the social media topic and the foundation which feeds hungry children. The speakers are prominent from the space of their expertise. Something has to start somewhere. Over time we may have to rephrase the article to be subtle in claims, but not delete it as it refers to a phenomena which is occurring in India.  Nurturer   (talk)   14:58, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - This conference has not even happened yet, this article is essentially an advertisement for it. Wikipedia is not a press release.  Wait until the conference actually happens, and if there is significant coverage of it, then create the article. &mdash;SW&mdash; spill the beans 23:58, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
