A CSD A7 tag was originally placed on this article, but was removed by the article's creator. Having read through the article, it asserts importance by having won awards, so CSD is not appropriate for this article. Having said that, I performed due research on this person and could not find any sources which establish the notability of this person, nor could I find an exact match of the named award given (Dada Saheb Palekar Award).

 * Since the article asserts credibility by claiming an award was won, A7 doesn't apply in this case.    ArcAngel    (talk) ) 13:30, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I just wanted to highlight it and even the claimed award is not cited. C ute st Penguin '''  {talk • contribs} 16:40, 3 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete This article is an obvious hoax and multiple speedy criteria applies. have you both noticed something?? The award image is an obvious hoax. There is no Dada Saheb Palekar award actually exist. But Dada Saheb Phalke exists. See the image carefully it is written "Dada Saheb Phalke". And now see the article it is written "Dada Saheb Palekar". Read this and you will find that the award is only given to those who work in Bollywood cinema. There is also a list of people who received this award. I can't see the subjects name in that list. It is claimed that he got the award in 2014 which is not possible since Gulzar has got it. (see my next comment) There are many similar issues with this article. I guess, the award certificate is madeup of a computer software maybe by Adobe photoshop or similar. No reliable third party source found in World Wide Web to verify the claims which are obviously hoax. I'm going to add those speedy tags again. It seems to me that the creator has COI issues as well.   Jim Carter (from public cyber)  14:17, 9 August 2014 (UTC)]
 * Even I have same views on this and Yes! I did noticed and even I mentioned above about award. ''' C ute st Penguin (Talk) 14:23, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah.. another look told me that the award is not even given out this year i.e. the award is not given out in 2014. Then how did the subject got it?? The last recipent was Gulzar in 2013.   Jim Carter (from public cyber)  14:29, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Do you want the same award? Well, I am very good at Photoshop . ''' C ute st Penguin (Talk) 14:35, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
