The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. After 3 relistings it is clear that the article has not been improved and that WP:TNT applies. There does seem to be a feeling that an article could be created about this subject, but this is not it. MelanieN (talk) 23:52, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

fail WP:GNG The Banner talk 22:31, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP Hi The Banner, I agree with you that few contents on the page does not reflect policy of neutrality. But with respect to Nashik city, Kumbhathon has played a role where it should reach to other people about what it does as it's information would be helpful to many people across world. I would like to seek others help to improve this page and will work on changing the context of the content to neutral. I request you to support and remove from deletion category.

There are many strong references about the article which are relevant as well. The issue is to maintain neutral content, I will make sure to reflect it.

My concern is to not promote this organization but to let this information help people across the world.

• User:The Banner, I intend to share knowledge and information, not "Spread the word". As I mentioned before, I don't intend to promote Kumbhathon, additional to that, It is an organization which aware Nashik people about Wikipedia as well. This article does have strong references as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SantoshiWiki (talk • contribs) 10:12, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP Hi The Banner, I agree with SantoshiWiki that the page has issues with Neutrality policy. The content which conflict with the policy can be improved instead of complete page getting deleted.

@SantoshiWiki, As you asked for community to help improve this article, I would work with you to do that and make this article informative instead of promotional. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adesh31 (talk • contribs) 07:12, 16 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, @Adesh31, Thank you for supporting and extending help, I have tried to remove GNG related failure. Most of the references are strong and valid to keep this article alive and need to be improved in future. Thanks! SantoshiWiki (talk) 07:34, 20 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. A pure advertisement /This is G11 material. DGG ( talk ) 04:11, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Highly promotional and unencyclopedic. Citobun (talk) 16:15, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• The contents can be improved instead of deleting it. Help to improve it! Strong references are added in to it.

• • I still do not see the strong references nor do I see evidence that it is more than a local marketing event. The Banner talk 08:49, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• User:The Banner, References added to the article are mostly from good news papers. About the content, I agree there are few promotional content. Can you guide me how to improve on that?

• Delete: WP:TNT. Topic appears to be notable, but the tone in which it is written about, makes it eligible for G11. @SantoshiWiki: Let it go and start over with WP:Article wizard. If need help, ask for it at WP:Teahouse and WP:INB. Anup [Talk] 21:47, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• User:Anupmehra, Thank you for believing that article is notable enough. Please help me to improve this article.

@SantoshiWiki: - In its present shape, the article is a pure mess; to be precise, it is exactly What Wikipedia is NOT. It would take less efforts and be a better option to start afresh. This time, do not create an article directly in main-space, instead make use of Article Wizard to create a draft first. It would help if you read these two pages to not repeat the same mistakes, WP:NPOV & WP:WORDS. Anup [Talk] 10:06, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
