Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Goa
 | Points of interest related to Goa on Wikipedia: Outline – History – Category – WikiProject – Alerts – Deletions |
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Goa. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Goa|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Goa. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.
This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to India.

WP:TOOSOON for student filmmaker with one short film that has received awards at minor film festivals. Does not pass WP:GNG in my view Atlantic306 (talk) 00:00, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers and India. Shellwood (talk) 00:03, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: per nom, no SIGCOV and the only claim to notability is the short film. Also, there might be a potential COI. HurricaneZetaC 03:00, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Also, don't draftify since sufficient sourcing doesn't exist for now. HurricaneZetaC 21:24, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Goa-related deletion discussions. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 04:32, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Delete clearly a case of TOO SOON perhaps he may be notable enough in the future. Pizza on Pineapple (Let's eat🍕) 09:52, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: Fails WP:GNG and a possible WP:PROMO AlphaCore talk 14:10, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Keep – The subject appears to meet notability through multiple independent sources that provide significant coverage of both the filmmaker and the award-winning short film. The article would not have been accepted into mainspace if it clearly failed WP:GNG at the time of review, as non-notable drafts are routinely declined at AfC. Early-career status does not automatically invoke WP:TOOSOON when reliable, non-trivial coverage exists. Per WP:PRESERVE, issues with sourcing should be fixed through improvement rather than deletion. Existing coverage supports retaining the article.— 1234Elon Mari (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- I don't even recall reviewing this article, but I'd say draftify, since I can see this article being expanded from here. monkeysmashingkeyboards (talk) 20:37, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

 Seems to be a small local newspaper with not much I could find.

Almost the entire article is about him.

The Navhind Times is a fairly large regional newspaper.

 Only one mention that he was the director of the film.

| While Goa19News seems to exist, it is a small news organization from its YouTube page so I'm not sure about it's reliability. The website is down, so I can't access the source.

The website of ITS Goa says it is a "blog-based website" and it seems to host AI-generated articles and images, which both give me pause on its reliability.
|
Only two mentions about him and nothing about him personally within the source.
|
✘ No | |
|
|
Per above.
|
Only one mention about him being the secretary of the event.
