Deletion of Arun Budhathoki

Comment: This article is at the center of several open AFD's ({{On AFD|Nepal Tribune Media|Nepal Tribune Media (2nd nomination)}}, {{On AFD|Kathmandu Tribune|Kathmandu Tribune (2nd nomination)}}, {{On AFD|The Applicant|The Applicant (2nd nomination)}} and a redirect placed on Nepali Tribune. There is clear evidence of promotional |COI. Of the set of articles, this one comes the closest to a credible claim as otable|Notable. Arun Budhathoki appears to be a reasonably successful reporter, who has done work for a variety of Notable publications. However ''the profession of reporter'' does not in itself satisfy our Notability criteria. Our standard for Notability is not whether someone writes, it is whether they are ''written about'' by others in Reliable Sources. Arun Budhathoki has also published poetry and fiction, however anyone can buy an ISBN for a few dollars and publish anything. Again, the standard for notability is whether ''others'' have written about Budhathoki or written about his work. Reviewing all of the REFs in the article may seem daunting (see ), however it is immediately obvious that most of them are ''written by Budhathoki'', and they can quickly be skipped when checking for Notability. Of the potentially |Reliable Sources not written by Budhathoki, the best one appears to be https://web.archive.org/web/20120719190838/http://www.thehimalayantimes.com/fullTodays.php?headline=Evoking+emotions+through+poetry&NewsID=317922 thehimalayantimes/Himalayan News Service discussing his poetry. However thehimalayantimes/Himalayan News Service runs https://thehimalayantimes.com/business/himalayan-news-service/ blatant promotional press releases, severely undermining any weight it would have as a source for objective independent critical note
