Deletion of Shalu Nigam

Comment: and do not rename - this article needs work, but it seems clear that neither  or  apply due to the substantial documentation of her role in the major events currently featured in the article, and  notability is supported, including because her activism and advocacy extends beyond this case, e.g. https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/can-kerala-woman-who-cut-rapist-godman-s-penis-plead-self-defence-experts-weigh-62361 News Minute 2017, https://thewire.in/rights/memorandum-sudha-bharadwaj-shoma-sen The Wire 2020, https://livelaw.in/news-updates/an-open-letter-by-900-activists-lawyers-against-auction-of-muslim-women-on-github-platform-177598 Livelaw 2021, https://thewire.in/women/sulli-deals-muslim-women-cyber-harassment-statement The Wire 2021

Comment: per , the article has been substantially revised, and I think it is now more clear why a standalone article for Nigam, with her case incorporated into it, is warranted. As an initial matter, it is a very fact-driven case, so her biographical details are a core part of the case and covered by multiple independent and reliable sources. She is also both the petitioner and the lawyer who made the arguments that were covered by multiple independent and reliable sources. The case also did not happen in a vacuum, because it is part of a developing body of caselaw (e.g. https://www.academia.edu/43132964/Biology_Intention_Labour_Understanding_Legal_Recognition_of_Single_Motherhood_in_India Mandel, 2019, Socio-Legal Rev. 15 (131): 147–149), and while I have not been able to access the specific pages that discuss her in https://www.google.com/books/edition/Mutinies_for_Equality/VyI3EAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0 Mutinies for Equality: Contemporary Developments in Law and Gender in India (2021), the publisher blurb indicates the book is focused on "protagonists who shape the debate around law and gender and locate their efforts into a socio-political context", which seems like further support for her notability as a contributor to the development of women's legal rights in India.  appears to be a relevant consideration for whether a standalone article for her is warranted, and it appears to not apply due to #3, her substantial role in this event, and #2, not remaining a low-profile individual after the event. For example, she was one of the experts cited by https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/can-kerala-woman-who-cut-rapist-godman-s-penis-plead-self-defence-experts-weigh-62361 The News Minute in 2017 for her writing on Battered Woman Syndrome, and she has engaged in high-profile activist activity, as noted in links in my comment above. In addition, on https://scholar.google.com/scholar?start=90&q=%22Shalu+Nigam%22&hl=en&as_sdt=0,38 GScholar, I had to go 10 pages in to get past her scholarly output, but she also appears to gain regular notice from her peers for her academic work, and the article currently does not fully reflect this nor additional information about her career that could be researched and confirmed based on her https://www.routledge.com/Domestic-Violence-Law-in-India-Myth-and-Misogyny/Nigam/p/book/9780367344818 Routledge author profile. A redirect could be created for the name of the case to her article, for if and when the case is discussed elsewhere on Wikipedia, which would offer the additional context about her that is available from a wide variety of sources that have been and could still be incorporated into the article
