Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/G-Series (record label)
It seems the nominator has taken it upon themselves to systematically delete every single article on Bangladeshi record companies. Of course if the subject fails notability guidelines they should be deleted. I just find it hard to believe that there is not a single notable record company in a country of 160 million people. Please search and review sources using জি-সিরিজ, the Bengali transliteration, if you are unfamiliar with the language then there is always Google translate. I am going to cite three news reports (written in Bengali, the national language of Bangladesh and in reliable sources), https://www.prothomalo.com/entertainment/article/1598894/%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%AA%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%87%E0%A6%9F%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%B0-%E0%A6%AA%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%A5%E0%A6%AE-%E0%A6%85%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%A5%E0%A6%A6%E0%A6%A3%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%A1-%E0%A6%9C%E0%A6%BF-%E0%A6%B8%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%9C%E0%A6%95%E0%A7%87 1st, G-series was the first company in Bangladesh fined for copyright violation, copyright laws are generally poorly enforced and as such this case was a milestone. The https://www.jagonews24.com/entertainment/news/412646 2nd sources is a profile on the company on their 35 founding anniversary. The https://www.kalerkantho.com/online/entertainment/2019/06/10/778242 3rd, a news article about a music video of the company that generated complaints and including an official one to the police. I will also add a brief mention in a https://books.google.com.bd/books?id=Giyy3mPtivUC&q=%22%E0%A6%9C%E0%A6%BF-%E0%A6%B8%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%9C%22&dq=%22%E0%A6%9C%E0%A6%BF-%E0%A6%B8%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%9C%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwia95W_gsHkAhVELY8KHfhyCcIQ6AEIKjAA book published in 2007 in Kolkata, India. There is a significant number of results when searching google news using the Bengali transliteration. Those results in combination with the English sources available, including those used in the article, show that subject has been operation for number of decades and has continuously received coverage in reliable sources. A record company who have released a significant number notable albums and/or albums by notable artists every year and is a major record producer in Bangladesh, which is not my assertion but has been noted by and stated in a number of sources. Many of the newspaper in Bangladesh do not have online listing or archives that can be accessed online. There is also a limited number of Bengali language and Bangladeshi books on google books. The sources available do show that the subject passes . I do not find this article to be promotional, which the nominator stated, but it definitely could use more sources and expansion but that is not the job of AFD
