Another article created by the same sock chain on non-notable CPI(ML)L party functionaries. Fails

WP:SIGCOV (though the article lists quite a few sources, these are mainly just election results). Curbon7 (talk) 09:35, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply

  • Thanks to Soman for uncovering those sources, which as DaxServer states, collectively determine notability. This is not a withdrawal, as a participant has !voted delete, but I'm striking my nomination. Curbon7 (talk) 22:34, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Also just for the record, a G4 was previously declined and the article is not eligible for G5 due to expansion by another user. Curbon7 (talk) 09:37, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - article is sourced, expanded and edited after the initial creation. The references given affirm notability, as leader of tribal struggles in Jhargram district in 1970s. --Soman (talk) 19:59, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    AGF as many of the literary sources are offline, but this does not seem to be supported by the current prose, which gives the impression that these are passing mentions. The source that supports the statement that he is a tribal leader ([1]) is also only a very
    passing mention and comes directly from the CPIMLL website. Curbon7 (talk) 22:01, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply

The recentism of sources being available on line creates a bias here. But looking at the material available, take for example Guerrillas: The Santals of West Bengal and the Naxalite Movement (Edward Duyker. Oxford University Press, 1987) which has Tudu covered over 6 pages (all snippet view for me, I can't make use of it for expanding article), or the inclusion in Who's who in 1982 Assembly Election, West Bengal, "SRI LEBA CHAND TUDU C. P. I. ( M. L. ) Leba Chand Tudu , ( 38 ) is the only School Final pass person among the Adibasis . He joined the Naxalbari movement in 1971 and was in prison upto 1977. He constantly struggled for the inclusion of..." (I feel there is more here, but snippet view limits me), Revolution Unleashed: A History of Naxalbari Movement in India, 1964-1972 (Amar Bhattacharya, Sampark, 2007, again snippet), Left Extremist Movement in West Bengal: An Experiment in Armed Agrarian Struggle (Amiya K. Samanta, Firma KLM, 1984) discusses the biography of Tudu across several pages (including the passage "He had promised Leba Chand Tudu a job and for that received two hundred rupees from Tudu . But he failed to procure a job , or to return the money . When Leba Tudu emerged as an activist in the party , he selected and killed Shaw as a class enemy."), quote "Duyker (1987) also mentions other influential tribal Naxalite leaders such as Gunadhar Murmu, Leba Chand Tudu, and Rabi Manjhi." in The Maoist Insurgency in Nepal: Revolution in the Twenty-first Century, "Santhal Maoists like Gunadhar Murmu, Jangal Santhal, Leba Chand Tudu and Rabi Manjhi were able to gain leadership status. Just as Mao wooed strategic minorities with promises of autonomy, as the Viet Cong wanted the tribal 'Front Unifie'..." in An Unfinished Revolution: A Hostage Crisis, Adivasi Resistance and the Naxal Movement, "The movement on West Bengal side gathered momentum after the GNLF accord came into operation in Aug. 1988 . The main JCC components are the CPI ( ML ) , N.E. Horo's Jharkhand Party , Leba Chand Tudu's Jharkhand Kranti Dal ..." ([2]), "Prominent Santhal leaders such as Lebachand Tudu and Gunadhar Murmu participated in this struggle. Violence began in the Gopiballavpur area in Midnapore from August 1969." in Marginalities in India: Themes and Perspectives, "Among the tribals Lebachand Tudu and Amulya Kalopahar from adjoining Nayagram were also included in the movement . The annihilation campaign through armed struggle in Debra took a brutal way from October , 1969 ..." in Sparks from Bidisa: Tribal unrest and tribal movement (Institute of Social Research and Applied Anthropology, 1994), "...we went to Kharikashole with the seized arms , ammunitions etc. I determined the policy of distribution of arms and placed the responsibility on Santosh to get them distributed to the guerrillas through Lebachand Tudu.." in Maoist "spring Thunder": The Naxalite Movement 1967-1972 (Arun Mukherjee. K.P. Bagchi & Company, 2007), "...forged an alliance with • PCC - CPI ( ML ) led by Santosh Rana , • Jharkhand Kranti Dal led by Leba Chand Tudu , and • IUML forming Jharkhand Sanjukta Sangharsha Morcha ( JSSM ) in June 1981." ([3]), etc. I'd say there is good indication of notability of Tudu. --Soman (talk) 22:46, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
