Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Naveen Perwani
Amateur quarter- and semi-finalists are perhaps not overwhelmingly notable. Ip, however, is a doubles world champion, thus clearly notable.  I have to note that the {{tl|Find sources}} "News" link does provide numerous valid major-media hits on Perwani, establishing at least multiple, independent, reliable sources, the |primary notability criterion. A similar template for each of the others probably would show similar results, too, unless some of these players have dropped out of the sport. I have taken the liberty of adding the templates so that people can see for themselves. Finally, it is not very |civil to insist that the "only" reason that someone might create an article is to just make a willy-nilly link from another page.  There are plenty of  participants who would certainly feel that any of the top 16 or so (i.e. world quarter-finalist) amateur players are notable enough for articles.  It must also be kept in mind that most if not all of these players have had (hopefully progressive) careers since the 2006 event, and some may now even be pros
