Priyanshi Arya : Being a the general secretary of a students' union does not inherently makes one notable.  There's also generally no SIGCOV anywhere.

This article from the Deccan Herald looks like SIGCOV: "Who is Dhananjay? All you need to know about JNU's first Dalit president in nearly 30 years" .  Deccan Herald .  Retrieved 2024-03-26 .  Eastmain ( talk • contribs ) 23:34, 9 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Eastmain I’m surprised to how you interpret SIGCOV.  Is Dhananjay the same person as Priyanshi Arya?  Obviously not and the only mention of this person there is In addition to Dhananjay's victory, Avijit Ghosh from the Students' Federation of India (SFI) secured the vice-president's post, while Priyanshi Arya of the Birsa Ambedkar Phule Students' Association (BAPSA), supported by the Left, won the general se. .  Where’s the SIGCOV here?  Vanderwaalforces ( talk ) 23:46, 9 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep.  Have added a reference from mainstream Indian media which is reliable, secondary source and independent media outlet.  It passes WP:GNG as it has WP:SIGCOV , an exclusive full length article and at least one other article with about five paras written about her from mainstream media.  I request Editors to look at all the cited references and take a call.  May be, if some feel it does not pass, request that it may be draftified.  thanks and regards!

There is another full-length article, in The SportsGrail, which I am not taking here as SIGCOV, as its main domain is sports.  Davidindia ( talk ) 04:11, 10 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete per WP:TOOSOON , SIGCOV, WP:PROF , and potentially WP:BLP violations.  As a university student she is not notable, absent significant coverage in Chronicle of Higher Education or the equivalent.  One reliable source by definition fails SIGCOV and WP:OR .  We very rarely keep any academic who has not gained tenure with at least an associate chair.  There's also disputes in the sources about whether she's dalit or middle class - a real BLP violation if you're an Indian reader - and very likely to be the subject of an edit war.  Bearian ( talk ) 14:26, 16 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] All the sources given like Indian Express, Hindu, Deccan Herald, Times of India, Economic Times are major reputed newspapers in India and the three news websites, News Minute, News Laundry and Wire are equally reliable and reputed news houses.  Except Sportsgrail all the sources cited are secondary and from mainstream news industry as reputed as Chronicle of Higher Education or much more.  All are highly respected news outlets.  The article about the subject is not for an academic, per say, but for a political leader in student politics.  I could not understand the dispute of the subject being a Dalit.  Anyway, I leave it to the editors.  If possible, it can be put in the draft space.

Talk!  22:35, 16 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] delete University-level student leader is inherently nonnotable unless some national level achievements.  - Altenmann >talk 23:03, 16 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep.  With due respect to the senior editors here, who have been doing great work on Wiki for years, I am just curious to understand if there is a wiki guideline or policy that prevents student leaders from having a BLP page.  I saw that many student leaders in Europe from Digby Jacks to Malia Bouattia to Shakira Martin to Zamzam Ibrahim , have articles.  Many BLPs on student leaders were created on Wiki with just a reference or two, when they were first created.  Here in India, a leader from JNU| Jawaharlal Nehru University is not just a university-level student leader... any leader from JNU gets ten times more visibility and recognition in India than a state university, say Bangalore University.  Many from JNU have become National leaders later on.   The subject is also notable because she is the first queer dalit student.  But this bit was removed to make sure there were no BLP violations and to protect the confidentiality of the subject, as there were not many sources and it was not clear if she was “out” I feel this subject BLP passes the WP: GNG .  But I leave it to the editors to decide.  Thanks and regards!  Davidindia ( talk ) 05:19, 17 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete .  Draftify .  The page is currently confusing with the sources given whether the page is on Priyanshi Arya or Dhananjay.  I do not think a local student union leader is notable but seems like the subject must have made some achievement that could be worthy of notice so I lean on draftifying this page for improvement with more reliable sources.  RangersRus ( talk ) 14:57, 17 May 2024 (UTC) and after going through all the sources more discreetly, many are poor to unreliable to lack of coverage on the subject.  General Secretary of a university is OK but it is not a significant enough to be considered notable when you cannot find more reliable sources with indepth coverage.  RangersRus ( talk ) 13:49, 18 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ RangersRus The person who "won the Jawaharlal Nehru University student union (JNUSU) election for the post of General Secretary." is Priyanshi Arya and not Dhananjay.  The author of this article is suspiciously using the "Dhananjay"'s coverages to imply notability on Arya.  Dhananjay is not inherently notable either.  Vanderwaalforces ( talk ) 15:09, 17 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I went through the sources and also tried to find sources on the subject but not any help.  It lead me to change my vote.  Page and the subject fails notability.  RangersRus ( talk ) 13:53, 18 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment At the outset, I would like to declare that I have absolutely no conflict of interest.  I just saw the news and did the article.  I have a lot of respect to the editor for all his work, especially with a number of good articles and C rated articles.  I am taken aback by a comment that attributes motives.  1000s of editors use the subject in search and cite all the articles that quoted the subject, which is quite normal.  AfD discussions are not 'voting' and since it is relisted, I used the bullet as Keep.  My only point is when student leaders in Europe have pages why not in India... especially when Priyanshi has at least one article, exclusively about her (Zee News is a reputed media outlet).  I just want everyone to know that I am just doing this in good faith, and have no particular interest in the subject.
