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. I've ignored the views of those who were clearly canvassed. What's left is a view split between those that think there are just enough sources to demonstrate that a full article can be written, and those that think the information in the sources is trivial and insufficient. I don't see that either argument has the upper hand, which leaves me to have to close the debate without a consensus.

CommentWeak delete. I'm kind of iffy here; 29 of the 33 references on this article come from the same newspaper.
Darling (

Yes, but it is majorly because
Times Of India has the largest coverage in Indian television industry. I wouldn't say the other newspapers do not cover news on
Indian television, they do, but it is comparatively less while compared with
Times Of India.
Weak Delete at this time, based on the observation of Darling that nearly all of the references come from the
Times of India, which is an unreliable source, and on not having been able to verify that multiple roles satisfy
acting notability. I may or may not review in more detail.

Keep : The actress had already attained
WP:N back in 2020 when her
WP:BLP was nominated for deletion the second time because at that time she had already played lead roles in Bedini Moluar Kotha (as main antagonist), Sanyashi Raja (as main protagonist), Thakumar Jhulli (as lead in four episodes) and in Mongolchandi (as main protagonist). And since 2020, she has only played main protagonist in Durga Durgeshwari, Mou Er Bari, Bikram Betal, Durga Aur Charu and at present in Imlie. Almost all of her roles in television till now were lead roles. Plus, she also played a prominent role in Parineeta. There are resources to support the same in the article.

Keep:The actress is a well known actress in the Bengali television industry and had played lead roles in notable shows like
Sanyashi Raja, Mongolchandi,
Durga Durgeshwari, Mou Er Bari, Bikram Betal, in the Bengali Television and also performed notable roles like Charu in the show,
Durga aur Charu. She is currently playing the role of
Imlie a popular Hindi daily soap.

Comment : If required, we are ready to provide videos of the television series where she played the lead and prominent roles. The videos are from recognized sites such as
Hotstar,
Voot and
Zee5. The videos prove that the Miss
Adrija Roy has played protagonist roles in the shows. The only issue is the language because she has worked in
Bengali and
Hindi, if there are
Indian editors they can give testimony by verifying them.

Dear @
Star Mississippi, I wasn't canvassing. I asked
User:Smsslove to be more clear with her vote because I could see from her comment here that she was voting for Keep and did not know how to do it. I was only guiding her.
And if you see my message to the other editors, I have never asked them to vote for Keep, I only asked them to participate in this nomination because I believe that
Indian editors have better knowledge about
Adrija Roy.
When I saw the two votes here yesterday of RobertMcclenon and Darling, I could very clearly see that they have absolutely null knowledge on
Adrija Roy which is why I wanted
indian editors to participate.
However I wholeheartedly apologize if my actions seemed like canvassing and are disruptive. My intentions were purely not canvassing or disruptive editing.
I promise, I will not do this again. I'm sorry. If you feel that I should be penalized then please tell me what I should do.
Comment to closing admin and @
Star Mississippi:
User:Smsslove doesn't know how to edit this page as she's quite new to Wikipedia and add her vote here, which is why she made several mistakes everytime she tried adding her vote. I was only trying to help and guide her and not canvass her. I have removed whatever mistakes I found of
User:Smsslove. However, if there are more mistakes then I apologize for that and also apologize if any of my edits seemed disruptive.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: This is currently a mess, due to the clear canvassing. Actual analysis of available source material would be quite helpful; discussion of "well known" or roles played is, well, not. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,

Keep I have to say quite a lot of me is unhappy with this vote, the whiff of UPE and a host of appalling, gushing Times of India society page pieces (likely paid) really do go against any desire to keep this thing, but the fact of the matter is that there IS other coverage
out there (although Bollywood/Indian celebrity media is pretty rough stuff) and the subject does now have multiple significant roles. So a mild case of the shudders, but a keep vote nonetheless... Best
