Notability

The AfD is stale now and was divided since it had a few keep votes too. Previous Afd focussed on non notable politician. The subject is not just a politician but a social activist too. More importantly lot of events of notable activism have happened since the last AfD that makes the person pass WP:GNG. I have added some links for the reviewer to consider his continuous coverage in the national newspapers of India. The article has been improved. In my opinion, in light of the new updates, the article should now be approved. Venkat TL (talk) 07:35, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree about notability. The article needs a lot of trimming. There are too many quotations and news items which are unnecesarily detailed or just a routine coverage of political events. A lot can be summarised. Regards,- Nizil (talk) 07:42, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Nizil Shah Thank you for your support on the notability. The draft has long been pending for submission. Please reply, Shall we move it to the mainspace? I think there are no major issues stopping it. If something can be summarised, that discussion can happen on talk page. Venkat TL (talk) 08:09, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It was deleted after WP:AFD discussion. So I think it should have gone through WP:AFC. - Nizil (talk) 03:56, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It went through the AFC. More than three weeks the submission was pending. After which it was moved. In any case it cannot be unilaterally deleted, would need a second AfD. Venkat TL (talk) 16:14, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see that one NPP reviewer has reviewed this page successfully. So this thread is resolved. Venkat TL (talk) 14:53, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Gopal Patel

@Nizil Shah in some refs, he was referred to as Gopal Patel. I understand that his common name is Gopal Italia, so I assumed may be patel is his middle name. Can you throw more light on this name question. Being a Patidar, I assume he has Patel surname. Venkat TL (talk) 08:10, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Gopal Patel is plain wrong. He is Patidar leader but not all Patidars have Patel surname. His name is Gopal Italia.- Nizil (talk) 04:06, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Nizil Shah, I am not sure why these sources are using Gopal Patel if it is wrong. Venkat TL (talk) 15:10, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Poor media. They assume all Patidars have Patel surname. Nizil (talk) 03:53, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, thank you for explaining. Venkat TL (talk) 16:15, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
