• Comment. Even though her father is important, the coverage in reliable sources is of her, not of her father. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 10:28, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Although the coverage is that of Arushi Nishank, the sources cited are not reliable. Please read this and check if the media houses cited here are in this list. Ht24 (talk) 11:29, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I couldn't find anything notable about her. Eevee01^(talk) 03:05, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Well I looked up the English language references and none of them are on the list WP:RSP. One of the references in the article is to [1]. Isn't that a satisfactory article? I'm not confident that the searching for sources going on here is adequate. Thincat (talk) 10:49, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the India Herald article is significant RS. There may be foreign language sources also. I am going to ping two editors who comment regularly at India related AFDs who are proficient at searching in foreign languages for this region. Goldsztajn and Tayi Arajakate would you mind searching for foreign language references on this individual?4meter4 (talk) 00:22, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, does not meet WP:NBIO. Also likely to be a self-written biography. MrsSnoozyTurtle 06:23, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep the article needs clean up, caution a plenty given the BJP/current government connections and no doubt concern over the influence of PR/churnalism. Nevertheless, there's substantial multi-year RS coverage available, meets BASIC.^[1](Same story, different source, English version^[2])^[3][4][5][6]

On the issue of paid news in the Indian media, this is a well-known problem (and not exclusive to India). The difficulty is what conclusion one draws: either all sources are permanently regarded as unreliable or a case-by-case basis is necessary. I see no community consensus for designating all sources implicated as unreliable, as such the onus is on an editor to show why a particular article from a claimed suspect source should be regarded as a paid news product. The alternative produces Salem-like outcomes (it floats...witch!). Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 21:26, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Sources too flimsy for this marginal BLP. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:57, 11 September 2021 (UTC).[reply]
• Comment- Doesn't meet WP:NACTOR; according to this news article she has acted in only one music video and her debut movie and web series are yet to be released. Eevee01^(talk) 09:53, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment, I don't know what to say about this one. Goldsztajn has already dug through sources which give her enough coverage to meet WP:BASIC, if we take them at face value. But I'm not very comfortable !voting keep looking at the sources. Blanket assessment of Indian media sources would be erroneous, paid news do not equally afflict all news publications and the reliability of different publications can vary significantly both within and between them so case by case assessments are necessary. The problem in this case is perhaps not even paid news per se but that some of these sources are linked to the party itself so all it'd need is some nudging to get a couple features up, for examples on India TV, India.com (source provided by Eevee01) or Zee Uttar Pradesh Uttarakhand while this wouldn't be so easy to accomplish with say India Today. I wish more people would just bring sources to RSN instead of unilaterally assuming them to be either reliable or paid promotion and the like.
