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.

- Comedian Marcus (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Not notable, sources include (1) death certificate search that returns 500 error, (2) a review of the subject's work and discussion, (3) passing mention subject and review of song, (4) coverage of a play (that mentions cast only by first name so I have to assume this is about the subject), and then (5) one mentioned as attribution to a work. 1 out of 5 on a source review.

Redirect to Tiatr#Past_tiatrists with the one extensive source about his work that the nominator has Identified (The Navhind Times). He is listed there and the target article lacks sources. (Note: I am not familiar with this type of theater, so if he is found notable after all, feel free to discard my comment).-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 01:34, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
- --> keep. WP:HEY and arguments and sources presented by The Discoverer below. Thanks.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 22:07, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Not a shred of Notability. Maliner (talk) 15:42, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect as per User:Mushy Yank (adding Marcus's name to the list of past tiatrists). This page is obviously a labor of love for User:Rejoy2003. Comedian Marcus was clearly an accomplished person and I would love to have seen him perform. I hope you will find other spaces to memorialize him and his achievements. Llajwa (talk) 20:51, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Per User:The Discoverer below, I withdraw my redirect and switch to Keep. Llajwa (talk) 17:26, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep The article has many more references now in comparison to the time when it was nominated. Admittedly, several of these references have only passing mentions of the subject, but this is a complete article in a mainstream newspaper focussed on the subject. These four: [1], [2], [3], [4], are records of recognition accorded to him, while another newspaper article praises his performance in a play. I think that these are sufficient to establish the notability for an artist who performs in a language that has very little presence in the online and offline publishing world. The Discoverer (talk) 16:04, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, withdrawn above, the article has received significant improvement. I'm bookmarking this to point to in the future in case people are curious as to the good that can come from AfD! microbiologyMarcus (petri dish·growths) 14:38, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

- FLY91 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
Here we are again. Last AfD resulted in DRAFTIFY as an WP:ATD. Moved from draft space by only keep vote from last AfD. References added (other than Twitter) are announcements around it leasing aircraft on its way to launch. Still WP:TOOSOON and the churnalism doesn't add up to significant coverage.

- pinging previous participants as this was fairly recent - @Thewikizoomer:, @S5A-0043:, @MrSchimpf:, @Siroxo:.--CNMall41 (talk) 19:05, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Unchanged from previous vote!; they may have leased an aircraft, but until it has a place to go and ticketed passengers, this still is not an active airline in any sense. Nate • (chatter) 19:10, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Although there is some news, I agree that it may be WP:TOOSOON. Royal88888 (talk) 21:53, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- Delete/Draftify. Still WP:TOOSOON. S5A-0043Talk 11:28, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- The airline already has it's first plane VT-NUT running test proving flights in India. I do not think it is too soon or worthy of deletion. Aircraft was delivered 2 days ago and is leased from Mumbai based VMAN leasing.
- Article definitely needs to be updated with the latest info. The first aircraft is an ex-TruJet ATR 72-600. Mkkm2112 (talk) 16:24, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Its first plane* (sorry - autocorrect) Mkkm2112 (talk) 16:25, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Based on the previous draftify, and the fact creator just attempted to draftify again after this discussion began, I think that would be the opposite of what needs to happen. I would actually recommend SALTing. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:21, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
