Was mentioned during
Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:SuzanneOlsson/sandbox (2nd nomination), where the outcome was delete, but proper notice wasn't given. Someone has objected, so I'm relisting it so a discussion can take place with proper notice given to all interested parties. This is a procedural nomination, I have no opinion on whether the article should be kept, deleted, whatnot.

Keep I was the person that objected. I don't know about Olsson's relationship with Wikipedia or with the editors in the prior MfD or anything about web hosting in relation to the userspace draft she had. The original draft in her user subpage has been deleted and I have no problem with that, as this separate draft for the Wikiproject is NOINDEXED. Back onto the topic at hand, regardless of everything else, Olsson is clearly notable. She has fringe religious theories, sure, but they are notable fringe theories. Here's some source examples:
That's just a quick sampling from a Google News search, which you can see and find more
here. I think her notability is quite evident and I don't believe the draft should be deleted, as it is one of the drafts being worked on by the Wikiproject.

I think these sources do not demonstrate her Wikipedia-notability. In each source, Olsson is not the subject of the coverage, but the proponent of the subject. This subject, "Jesus is buried in the
Roza Bal Shrine in downtown
Srinagar, in Indian-administered Kashmir", is a religious fringe subject. I think that Olsson should not have a Wikipedia biography, as she is not known for anythign but this, with no sources covering her biographically, but she should be mentioned in an article on this alternative theory on Jesus. Probably a mention at

What you just stated is true for any scientist or researcher (fringe or not). The coverage is always about the subject they're interested in and their involvement in it, not on them personally.

Userfy for Silver seren, for him to edit and move to mainspace. As there is a promotional aspect, this page should not be left live without being testable at AfD, so please, until it is moved to mainspace, keep it blanked if it is not being actively edited. There must be a limit to how long things can be left live as an "abandoned draft" --

Move to mainspace and I will help
Silverseren work on it. The difficulty is that Suzanne Olsson (the Wikipedia editor) has now been topic-banned from everything relating to
Roza Bal, the main area of research of Suzanne Olsson (the person) and a primary topic (no doubt) of Suzanne Olsson (the article). In effect, she has now been topic-banned from editing her own draft article about herself, and would be topic-banned from editing the article were such an article to be moved to mainspace. But I think the article should be published, despite the problematic history.

Support if you like, with the reservation that I think there should be coverage of the subject "Jesus in India" before biographical coverage of a proponent. In other words, my reservation is that this is likely to be an orphan biography. --

No worries Joe. There is some coverage of the subject, in fact
Jesus in India exists as a redirect to
Unknown years of Jesus.
Roza Bal is one part of the theory outlined at end of the lede of that article. I would think there would likely be links from
Roza Bal at least. So not extensively linked, for sure, but not an orphan entirely.
