Fails WP:GNG and solely relies on a single source. Abishe (talk) 12:57, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

:Delete for failing WP:GNG and single source - and one behind a registration wall. In general, if a subject meets GNG it would not be hard to find multiple reliable sources. Blue Riband► 15:18, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

  • Comment He is mentioned in some rather famous copper plate inscriptions from Bahour. See, e.g., [https://archive.org/details/EpigraphiaIndicaVol4/page/n228 Epigraphia Indica Vol IV, No. 23] and [https://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/history-and-culture/bahur-seat-of-learning/article5809690.ece The Hindu]. Searching for "Nripatunga Varman" (with the space) shows some additional references, e.g. [https://www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&q=%22Nripatunga+Varman%22+-wikipedia&spell=1&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjujdGdivLmAhVGj1kKHYy9CDwQBQgmKAA&biw=1920&bih=966&dpr=1 Google Books]. 24.151.50.175 (talk) 18:14, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Comment -- No longer a single source, but how much do we seriously know about his reign? All we have at present is some brief genealogical details. Such articles are regularly redirected to the article on the dynasty. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:20, 10 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Keep he was a ruling monarch and so even if we had only one source that attested to him we should keep the article. We have multiple sources. True we cannot say a whole lot about him, but when we have articles on children of 18th-century European monarchs who died at age 5, this suggestion of deleting the article on a ruling monarch over a sizeable chunck of India is the exact sort of action that contributes to systemic bias in Wikipedia.John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:35, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
