This has been speedied, draftified and bringing it here for some form of consensus. I am not sure whether the sourcing establishes notability, nor her first in the field, however I am not certain. Star Mississippi 14:41, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Delete: Having just redacted a copyright violation I was about to perform an IAR draftification. Since it is now at AfD, I am suggesting deletion. She works in a specialist field, but so do many people. She is doubtless very capable, but such capability within the field is WP:ROTM. I am not persuaded that she passes WP:BIO. There appears to be some sort of claim to inherited notability from her parents! WP:NOTINHERITED applies 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 14:53, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Delete - it's fairly clear that there's an undeclared COI here. I suggest protecting the page once it's been deleted. Deb ( talk) 15:03, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  I've filed an SPI which will hopefully assist in stopping the disruption as well if it's endorsed by a clerk and confirmed. Star Mississippi 15:11, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply

   Comment: The two main protagonists in this article are blocked, and the SPI is currently awaiting clerk decisions on tagging and closure. I imagine this AfD will run for the usual seven days. While not suggesting WP:SNOW I will not object in a day or so if someone goes by that route assuming it is still eligible 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 16:32, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Delete. Selvaraj does not pass any relevant notability guidelines, and the only sources that cover them in any detail are self-published, some of which I have removed. Neutral on salting the page, but I think that's up to the discretion of the closing administrator. — TechnoSquirrel69 ( sigh) 15:06, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply
• Comment: An analysis of the references shows only passing mentions of or interviews with Selvaraj. In one she might be the presiding ObGyn, or may be a hospital spokesman. t is not made clear. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 15:41, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply
• Delete Well, her photos went viral [1] and she's helped deliver babies in other articles. I'm not seeing notability. An astronaut gave her an award, which isn't terrible notable. Oaktree b ( talk) 21:45, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  She seems to be used as a medical expert by local media, for what it's worth [2] Oaktree b ( talk) 21:47, 22 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Delete. Neither her occupation nor her honors have yet provided sufficient notability. Suitskvarts ( talk) 10:41, 29 September 2023 (UTC) reply
