Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Sikhism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Sikhism. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Sikhism|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Sikhism.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Sikhism[edit]

Singha Purohit[edit]

Singha Purohit (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The entire article( created by a sockpuppet account), appears to focus solely on a single historical event involving a person. There are no additional details available except for the person's role in saving the Daughter of the Sikh Guru Hargobind from the Mughals. This lacks sufficient notability WP:GNG, and there isn't enough context to justify creating an article. Imperial[AFCND] 18:15, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Poorly written page and I cannot even verify texts from the sources. Fails notability guidelines and the maybe sourced contribution does not aid in the verifiable presentation of the subject. RangersRus (talk) 18:42, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete: WP:G5. Speedy deletion should not have been declined. The SPI appears to rule that this account was likely unrelated, which might have caused the confusion. However, the real reason this account was later blocked can be found here. Aintabli (talk) 19:35, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Not notable. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 00:38, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
