- 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 delete. It is pretty clear, as pointed out by a couple of commenters that weren't socks, that advertorial content cannot be used as a method of passing GNG. Note: I closed this a day early, because the relist note had been deleted accidentally (see history). However, it has been open for 13 days, and the result isn't going to change.

Contested draftification. Zero in-depth coverage about this individual so doesn't meet WP:GNG, and with a high citation count of 36 and no qualifying positions, does not meet WP:NSCHOLAR. Onel5969 TT me 09:25, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

- Keep: Dear @ Onel5969
- Thank you for reviewing my article and providing your feedback. I understand your concerns about the notability of the individual I wrote about. However, I would like to contest the draftification of the article on the following grounds:
- Unique contributions: While there may not be in-depth coverage of the individual, they have made unique and significant contributions in their field. For example, Recently Dr Bhaskar Sharma Appointed All India Secretary Medical Wing Of People's Forum Of India and also Dr. Bhaskar Sharma conferred with Medal of Excellence Award 2022 by the International Police Forum. These contributions demonstrate the individual's importance and should be taken into consideration.
- Citation count: While the individual may not have any qualifying positions, the high citation count of 18 demonstrates the interest and impact of their work. This is particularly significant given the limited coverage of the individual in the media. The citations provide evidence of the individual's notability and should be taken into account.
- Potential for expansion: The article was short, but there is potential for it to be expanded with additional information and sources. And now it is improved as per wiki norms so with these additions, the article would provide a valuable resource for readers.
I respectfully request that the article be reconsidered for inclusion on Wikipedia. Thank you for your time and consideration. Rx ( talk) 07:31, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: Passes WP:GNG. He has been subject of multiple news articles which were published in different date, months and year. Like two times in Dainik Bhaskar [1] [2] and one time in ABP News. [3]
There is significant coverage about him in many reliable sources like in Mid-Day, [4] ANI News [5] and in ThePrint. [6] He was also felicitated by Donald Trump, President of United States. [7] 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝟕𝟐𝟖🧙♂️ Let's Talk ! 15:06, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Comment - Hi, @ LordVoldemort728: Public relations firms were hired to write the news stories referenced, please check ( PR). Visit any of these articles, and you'll see that they all contain backlinks to Bhaskar Sharma's website and are obviously written as brand postings. Nothing but good things about him are said in every article. Brand post tags are present in every article. Due to the fact that ANI is a PR company, it contributes content to all other news websites.

- Comment. There is nothing here that is even a claim of notability. The awards he claims to have won are nonsense. They are not some high honour or distinction in the gift of the US President. They are national programmes like the Duke of Edinburgh Awards in the UK (“awarded by the Queen’s consort” (gasp!)) so they are no more notable than winning a spelling bee or a being in the top 1000 winners of egg and spoon races. In addition I don’t even believe the subject won the claimed Youth Fitness Award as he is also the author of “200 books” and thus clearly not a school student, which he would need to be to qualify for it. This kind of bio that you usually get invited to spend $500 on to have inserted into an “exclusive” “Global Platinum Practitioners Directory”, and it’s certainly not the kind of thing that belongs in Wikipedia.

- Delete On top of the failure to meet any relevant notability standard, the claims of treating illnesses with homeopathy don't belong anywhere near an encyclopedia. XOR'easter ( talk) 21:30, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- Speedy delete. Fraudulent article (homeopaths are not physicians) consisting entirely of PROMO for a non-notable quack. I anticipate this needing to be salted given the disruption.
