Fails WP:NPOL, fails WP:GNG. Repeatedly draftified and repeatedly moved back by socks of the creator. Needs a better resolution. Usedtobecool TALK  05:43, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Quoting WP:POLITICIAN: "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the general notability guideline." If we can get some good sources on this mayor, then, I will reconsider. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 07:27, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete nothing in google news. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 10:05, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as not meeting notability guidelines. Would settle for moving back to draft as it might be hard to find googlenews hits, or any google hits, on someone in Nepal, and as a precaution against systemic bias.-- Deepfriedokra 11:22, 24 December 2019 (UTC).[reply]
    PS. If draftified yet again. ( I came from reviewing an unblock request.) it could be protected so that only AfCers can move it.-- Deepfriedokra 11:24, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This article was originally used mainly to promote a non-notable actor and self-published activist who had a bit part (not even starring or credited) in a movie. There was another Narendra Singh Dhami who was Chairman, Malikarjun Rural Municipality, Darchula https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mytM6kuoFw0 who has an interview on TV Today Nepal, and who is different from the one that is being listed/promoted here. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Narendra_Singh_Dhami&oldid=919257202 If this is meant to be about the politician, then it should be about that second Dhami. If the first one (the activist/author) has since become mayor, then it needs the secondary news sources, otherwise it confuses the two even more. The articles presented have tens of elected officials, some of whom have Singh Dhami as a family name, so they are just as WP:MILL local office as the others, and given that the editors know who the parents are named and actual birthplace, are likely to have even more COI. Another option is to Retarget to Malikarjun and list as current representative/mayor in the infobox, but that would have to be sourced, and then it might have to be deleted anyway should someone else become mayor later. The article had also been disputed/rejected multiple times by myself at AFC but the same socks have been pushing him into the mainspace, so I would not recommend draftifying until competence and better sourcing is shown.

  • Delete. Being mayor of a rural municipality with a population of less than 2K is not a Wikipedia inclusion freebie — at this level of significance, the key to getting him into Wikipedia is not just stating and verifying that he exists, and would require writing and reliably sourcing a substantive article about his political importance. And that's not what this article is. Furthermore, the article's most frequent editors have been users named "Ram Singh Dhami" and "Tijendra Singh Dhami", suggesting conflict of interest editing by the subject's own family. As always, "I'm proud of my relative for doing the thing!" is not in and of itself grounds for inclusion in an international encyclopedia. Bearcat (talk) 16:13, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
