:({{Find sources AFD|Amit Kacher}})

The sources provided currently within the article (as direct hyperlinks) are unreliable (youtube variety). I've tried to search deep and low and haven't been able to find the requisite sources. The article says that many newspapers call him "the small town boy who made it big". I couldn't find any such newspaper sources (are there regional sources? I couldn't find...). The article is made probably by his sister or some other relative. In my view, the subject fails WP:GNG, WP:CREATIVE, WP:MUSICBIO and of course, WP:BIO and should be deleted.

  • Speedy Delete - An AfD was not required. This was Speedy Deleted earlier, and from the surname of the creator it is evident that she is creating a page for her brother/relative. Nothing to indicate any improvements since the last time this was CSDed and all the titles bestowed on him were probably done ín-house. Jupitus Smart 12:55, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

:Hi {{u|Jupitus Smart}}. As I don't have access to the deleted version, there's no way to tell if the previous version was the same or not. I find certain lines within the article providing a credible claim of significance (for example, claiming to be the Voice of Madhya Pradesh award winner); so don't know if A7 can apply. Can this be considered unambiguously promotional? I'll ping {{u|Sjb72}} who deleted the article earlier and let them decide. Thanks. Lourdes 13:02, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

::I nominated this for deletion, and though there seems to be some improvement since the last article, I do not see anything to merit keeping this for 7 days, after which it will anyway be deleted.Jupitus Smart 13:04, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

:::Sure. I'm okay with anything. Lourdes 13:12, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

::::Comment Just passing through, but saw the ping. The deleted version is a lot shorter than the current one. One paragraph is copied verbatim - the opening paragraph of the section Early Life Amit Kacher was born in a small town... without taking a piece of bread. Stephen!

  • Delete I've cleared out a lot of the puffery and irrelevant unreferenced claims, but left the unreferenced claims hint at notability. Not a candidate for speedy deletion as there are some claims for notability, but I concur with Lourdes that there doesn't appear to be notability. Stephen! Coming... 16:32, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
