Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Subodh Gupta (yoga trainer)

Hello REDDOGsix, You have suggested speedy deletion for one of the article twice for the reason which seems Trivial themselves.

(a)I have provided reference from well known newspapers including Telegraph newspaper, Times of India, Times UK, even including the awards and you have raised objection that the reference are not notable???

(b) The subject about whom I have written has spend 10 years of his life helping people living a healthy life, fighting obesity and was awarded for the same reason and you raise the objection that it is not important???

Could you please explain REDDOGsix than what is notable and what is important???

References are not self written instead written by Telegraph UK, Times UK Times of India, Hindustan Times, could you please check correctly and in most cases they are not one line. The national TV debate on Times Now TV channel is 30 minutes long (6 minute edited edition is linked), on BBC radio London the live interview was for one hour.

What is notable is the decade of work to help others and reference in national newspapers. Thanks

Please note References are not self written, instead by national newspapers. YoginiukYoginiuk (talk) 08:04, 16 January 2014 (UTC)


 * The Goodreads quotes are all obviously self-written, as they are quotes from his own book.
 * The Telegraph.uk ref is a one-line mention in an article about Gordon Brown.

'''Reply to user Uncle Milty- Actually it is three line mention and national newspaper recommending to the prime minister at that time. Is that not notable???'''
 * The Times article is about medication. I'm not going to pay to read the rest of it, but I doubt it suddenly turns into an article about Subodh Gupta.

'''Reply to user Uncle Milty- Are not using assumption instead of facts that it will turn about Subodh Gupta? Actually the article by Times UK wrote more than 20 lines about Subodh Gupta. Isn't that notable'''??? You don't have to pay here is the link http://www.subodhgupta.com/testimonials ( I have given detail reply below to all your points. Thanks)
 * The Youtube video is a debate about a subject that is not Subodh Gupta.
 * The TimesIndia ref is an article about a non-notable event that Subodh Gupta happened to participate in. Nothing else is said about Subodh Gupta.
 * The Complete Wellbeing article is written by Subodh Gupta, and while it could be used to substantiate facts about Subodh Gupta, it does nothing to support a claim of notability.
 * The Hindustan Times ref say the most about Subodh Gupta, but still makes no claims of notability.
 * The second Youtube ref is Subodh Gupta's own video. It cannot support notability claims.
 * the Obesity Campaign site has articles by Subodh Gupta (again, self-written) and an press release about Subodh Gupta winning an apparently non-notable award.


 * Please see General Notability Guidelines and Reliable Sources for more information. -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  12:42, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

The Times article is about medication.? Anyway for your curiosity I have added the link here which shows that Times UK indeed has written in great length about Mr Gupta. http://www.subodhgupta.com/testimonials (Please note it is not one as you have mentioned but more than 20 lines about Subodh Gupta is that also not notable??? I will surely review every single articles from next week contributed/edited by yourself to see if they follow flimsy guidelines you are using to delete an authenticated article.

'''Hello there could you please write the feedback correctly with facts. '''

His book "'''Stress management a holistic approach: a five steps plan" was reviewed by Candice magazine UK Oct 2011, page 86 and 87. Is that also not notable'''? here is the link http://www.subodhgupta.com/testimonials He was featured in the Vegetarian Magazine UK Sept 2010, page 67, is that also not notable??? He was featured in Natural Health magazine UK November 2009, page 27 is that also not notable??? He was interviewed for Maria Claire India June 2009 page 207 is that not notable???

The Telegraph.uk ref is a one-line mention in an article about Gordon Brown. Yes his name was recommended to the the prime minister at that time. How many people are recommended by national newspaper for the Prime minister. Isn't this fact notable???

The Times article is about medication. If you don't want to read the article it is not the subject mistake or is it? Anyway for your curiosity I have added the link here which shows that Times UK indeed has written in great length about Mr Gupta. http://www.subodhgupta.com/testimonials

The Youtube video is by National TV channel of India, Times NOW and it a national level debate on yoga which invited Subodh Gupta among all the prominent people all over the country. Isn't this fact notable???

The TimesIndia ref is an article about a event that Subodh Gupta happened to participate in. (above testimonial links says much more about the other testimonials).

The Complete Wellbeing article is written by Subodh Gupta, and while it could be used to substantiate facts about Subodh Gupta.

The Hindustan Times ref say the most about Subodh Gupta. Another national newspaper of India writing about him and still it is not notable???

The second Youtube ref is Subodh Gupta's own video. Which shows that he is dessiminating information on how to stay healthy.

'''The Obesity Campaign is launched by Subodh Gupta. How many people do that???''' Isn't that notable??? And about Subodh Gupta winning an apparently not notable where 30 leading health practitioners of the UK were invited for the event. How is that not notable???

I will surely review every single articles from next week contributed/edited by yourself to see if they follow flimsy guidelines you are using to delete an authenticated article.
