Saroj Karki

I almost feel bad because the subject seems to be doing interesting work, but still fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO. Even if the promotional tone were fixed, I don't think notability exists. Four of five references on the article are created by the subject himself (his site, his organization, and his Facebook page). The only somewhat independent source is a youth blog that may not be reliable. Even if the "youth legend" source is reliable and independent, the coverage is just an interview and there are not multiple independent sources. I could not find any other significant coverage in reliable independent sources in English (he's mentioned in passing in a number of articles, but none are significant); my apologies if they exist in another language. 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 05:45, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
