Pancha Ganapati

[edit]

Festival created by a Hindu American guru, which is no notability outside his "church". No "significant coverage" by third-party references. Redtigerxyz ^Talk 16:43, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, Mentioned by unrelated books, websites. Bladesmulti (talk) 18:28, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep,This page usefully advises curious readers of articles like this one that this holiday is not a traditional Hindu holiday. Far too many online sources uncritically represent this festival as a "Hindu" holiday without notifying readers of its recent Western provenance. This page remedies that, not least because Wikipedia articles show up at the top of Google search results. That's a useful encyclopedic function.

WP:Incubate. Seems to exist but the content is not suitable for an article entry. There has been plenty of text in it and if there is sufficient interest it can be improved. Gm545 (talk) 06:33, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
