Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ruchita Misra (2nd nomination)

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's
talk page or in a deletion review
). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus to delete. Closing as no consensus at this time because the basis for keeping is weak, but there is no reason to expect that relisting will yield a different outcome. Irrespective of notability conferred by the award, authorship of a best-selling book is another point of potential notability which needs to be better substantiated. No prejudice against renomination for deletion if no improvement is made in this direction. BD2412 T 16:14, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - once again the Awadh Samman is not enough to show notability. It is a state, not national award.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 19:25, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. I'm unimpressed with the sources; the best I see are [1], [2], and [3], and these are borderline at best. The award also sounds a little more impressive than it seems to be after a detailed examination; if it were a significant award, why is it not reported on more often? As best as I can tell, even the UP government does not maintain a list of awardees. Vanamonde (Talk) 15:52, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
