Regarding deletion of article Shri mamasaheb deshpande
Shri mamasaheb deshpande should not be deleted as it is not a promotional article. Mamasaheb was a freedom fighter and great Saint in maharashtra, India. He preached the teachings of indian saints free of cost to all people. His priceless work is still praised in india. Wiki should not delete the page. Rohanupalekar (talk) 00:53, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

Regarding deletion of article Shri Mamasaheb Deshpande-2
Hello, I accept there are some issue would like to address here there basic three objection for this article 1) the article additional citation 2) the article does not meet notability criteria 3) the article is orphan

1)In India all the traditions knowledge remembered and read by heart. it was then transferred to next generation. only some important text related the philosophy is written. personal things are not discussed or written as books. very small reference related to Biography of great Saint from India are available and these are scattered in nature. it will take time to compile and give it as reference links. no one commented that the information is factually incorrect. But I accept that more efforts need to be taken to improve this.

2)there is issue of notability. it is clearly mentioned in the notability criteria that "sustained coverage is an indicator of notability, as described by notability of events." total 2400 views in one year for a philosophers is very good indicator of the notability. considering the internet reach and awareness in India I feel this is very good number. it is also important to note that till date the article was orphan and people done specific search and reached the article on Wiki. these are not the random hits. One blog link given in the wiki page as reference "http://sadgurubodh.blogspot.in/" . This blog discusses his philosophy, this have total 31,000 views till date. This is also one indicator of notability.

3)the article is orphan. Couple of links are provided only on pages which is very important and relevant. there are other pages which can be linked to this page. but without sufficient thought process I will not add those in hurry.

4)As mentioned above it is difficult to get non affiliated links. But I still managed to get of some sources. I have added these additional non affiliated links in the reference list to address this issue. It is mentioned in the policy that "An article that currently is without third-party sources should not always be deleted". I request the editors please give due consideration to this policy.

The content in the article is neither make any controversial statements nor demonize others or hurts others. It is also well know fact that in life time of a Saints ( be it A Tibetan or Christian or Hindu ) there can exists some supernatural phenomenon. it can appear in the biography of the person and it can not be treated as promotional. I request the Editor to remove this article from deletion page list.

Thanks and Regards (Yogesh dol (talk) 06:08, 20 May 2018 (UTC))
