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.

- 2027 Goa Legislative Assembly election (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)
WP:NCRYSTAL. Nothing about the election has been declared yet, no WP:RS are currently talking about it. Should be recreated closer to 2027 when we have actual sources discussing the election.
See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2028 Democratic Party presidential primaries for a similar recent AFD Soni (talk) 07:36, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Politics, India, and Goa. Soni (talk) 07:36, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- I have now noticed a series of articles under the Template:Next Indian elections. I was not aware of the remaining articles, and the standard to call them "Next". I'm not now unsure if there's a broader consensus at play; if not, one should be established. Either will make deleting all early "Next articles" easier, or we could add talk page notes to not nominate any of them for deletion. Soni (talk) 07:13, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Since the template also got tagged for deletion separately, here's all the next election articles from the template; these may need revisiting if this AFD closes as Delete - Next Assam Legislative Assembly election, Next Kerala Legislative Assembly election, Next Manipur Legislative Assembly election, Next Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election, Next West Bengal Legislative Assembly election
- The articles this probably does not affect are -
- Next Bihar Legislative Assembly election and Next Delhi Legislative Assembly election (probably in 2025), Next Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly election (probably in 2026). All of them already have RS discussing them Soni (talk) 12:29, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- WP:ATD-R: Goa Legislative Assembly. Too early! Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 08:03, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect to Goa Legislative Assembly: Too Early, if opinion polls would begin, then it would be ok else Redirect for now. ☮️Counter-Strike:Mention 269🕉️(🗨️ ● ✉️ ● 📔) 12:58, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Same here. WP:TOOSOON. Way down in the future for year 2027 and Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, nor is it a collection of unverifiable content. RangersRus (talk) 12:20, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Another WP:TOOSOON article. Clearly not ready for mainspace. Based Kashmiri TALK 10:04, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Completely unsourced article which fails WP:NBIO. Redirect to List of people from Goa as an WP:ATD since subject is mentioned there. CycloneYoris talk! 21:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. No sources since the creation of the page. The subject is not notable, well known, and a simple search would not show any results on him from reliable sources. Fails WP:BIO and WP:GNG. RangersRus (talk) 14:33, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - Entirely based on statements without citing a single WP:Reliable Source. Poorly composed and published.Sameeerrr (talk) 17:45, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: lacks reliable sources to support its claims and fails to establish the subject's notability, making it a candidate for deletion. Waqar💬 19:42, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

doesn't meet notability criteria Pblcpvt (talk) 13:07, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors, Women, Crime, Travel and tourism, Sexuality and gender, and Goa. Skynxnex (talk) 13:10, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2024 May 7. —cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 13:17, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment The editor proposing deletion has edited no other article. PamD 09:05, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - I have expanded the sources in the article. A multi-page chapter in a book discusses her and her work,[1] she is widely quoted in the news thereby meeting WP:BASIC (see article for citations), she has one publication that has been reviewed (not a pass of WP:AUTHOR but contributing to notability). DaffodilOcean (talk) 11:59, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
- The chapter quotes her and not really a profile of her only. But possibly can be overlooked. Jgnfls (talk) 23:31, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment This user has a total of six edits, 5 are changes altering my additions to the Desai article and one is a comment here at AfD. Given this, and the limited editing history of the initial nominator, I am a little concerned about the interest in this article.
- Regardless, the four-page long book chapter describes Desai's personality, her dedication to children, how the organization she runs has exposed the "seedy underbelly of Goal", how she got involved in the organization. There are certainly additional details about the organization, but this is certainly WP:SIGCOV. DaffodilOcean (talk) 10:26, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

The result was merge to MTV Splitsvilla#Season 1. Liz Read! Talk! 20:12, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- MTV Splitsvilla season 1 (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)
A list of 20 contestants, only 2 of whom have their own pages, plus details of who they were "dumped by" is essentially a summary-only description of a work. This season of the show is not notable independently of MTV Splitsvilla, and there's no content here that couldn't be merged to that article.
I'm creating an AfD rather than boldly redirecting etc. as MTV Splitsvilla lists individual pages for 15 seasons so think it's worth a discussion. Feedback welcome on whether this is the right approach. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Television, India, and Goa. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 17:55, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
Redirect to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1. Seasons for same show do not need to have separate pages. RangersRus (talk) 18:46, 1 May 2024 (UTC)- Redirect to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1: Per nom. Not enough content for a stand alone article. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 18:14, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I'm relisting this discussion. Have editors looked at this redirect target? It's a blank section on this article point to the page you want to delete. You're advocating redirecting an article to just a header on an article. This doesn't seem like the most sensible resolution. How about a Merge consideration?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:31, 7 May 2024 (UTC)- Comment - sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm suggesting MTV_Splitsvilla#Seasons overview as the redirect target for MTV Splitsvilla#Season 1 (and other seasons), and removing the headers for each season. The "seasons overview" table seems to sum up all the content that would be merged anyway. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 15:44, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1. All seasons 1 to 15 pages should be merged with necessary information. RangersRus (talk) 14:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- Merge a brief properly sourced summary to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1 per above, nothing meeting WP:SIRS in article or found in BEFORE to support a stand alone article. // Timothy :: talk 14:01, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
