Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaybahadur Hitan Magar (2nd nomination)
The only cited reference is a book written and published by his own son, which is not an independent source for the purposes of establishing his notability — and in my 15+ years of contributing to Wikipedia, this is a definite candidate for the longest article I've ''ever'' seen with so little referencing to actually support any of it. And, indeed, it's written in a very hagiographized way that very likely includes some |original research ("When not out on political business or other official work, Hitan liked to lead a simple lifestyle: rising early, drinking much tea, and meeting up with friends to drink more tea."), making it extremely unsurprising that there was a confessed |conflict of interest. The first nomination did not end as a keep because there was any consensus that his notability had been properly established or referenced, but rather it was kept ''solely'' because it was nominated as "probably a copyright violation" (which is generally weak grounds for an AFD discussion in and of itself, because copyright problems can be easily fixed with rewrites) while not actually taking notability or sourcing issues into account at all.So no prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write a more neutral and encyclopedic version than this, and reference it to much more |reliable source coverage than just one book published by his own son and |self-cited by him in his capacity as the article's author — but nothing here is properly written or properly sourced for the purposes of establishing that he's genuinely notable enough
