• Draftify and improve: there is significant coverage of him in Malayalam RS: try searching for "സുബ്രഹ്മണ്യ ശർമ" [M. Subramania Sarma] or "പ്രഫ.എം.സുബ്രഹ്മണ്യ ശർമ" [Prof. M. Subramania Sarma]: [https://www.manoramaonline.com/news/kerala/2020/09/08/subrahmania-sharma-passed-away.html], [https://www.manoramaonline.com/news/kerala/2018/01/31/kerala-padma-list-rejected.html], [https://www.marunadanmalayalee.com/more/homage/violinist-subrahmanya-sharma-passess-away-203167],

:He's also won several notable awards, including the Kerala Sangeetha Nataka Akademi Award and the Padma Shri. The article is presently poorly sourced and written in the tone of an obituary, but can be improved. If it's reviewed and moved to main space, it should be at either M. Subramania Sarma or M. Subramania Sharma, perhaps a fluent Malayalam speaker can advise on the best transliteration. Wikishovel (talk) 10:37, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

• Speedy delete: It shouldn't be draftified but rather WP:TNT. Anyone can start over as long as their version isn't a total copy of the deleted content. The subject seems to be notable, but the contents are probably WP:OR by someone related to the subject. The article as a whole fails WP:V. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 11:08, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

• Delete: No proof of Padma Shri. Charlie (talk) 15:39, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

::I take your point, I've just read the reference I posted above more closely, and it actually says he was recommended for Padma Shri, not awarded. Wikishovel (talk) 16:04, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

• Delete: One hit for a green energy council in Gnews, nothing for a violin player. Delete for lack of sourcing, not seeing musical notability either. Oaktree b (talk) 16:28, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
