This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Nepal. 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|Nepal|~~~~}} 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.
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 Nepal. 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 Asia.

The result was delete. I see a consensus to Delete this article. Also, echoing some participants, it seems very self-promotional as it is unlikely that a solitary editor could be considered the "founder" of an entire Wikimedia project. LizRead!Talk!21:59, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Non-notable person, we've been through this discussion numerous times elsewhere. Tulsi is not a notable person as an "activist" nor a Wikipedian, and this article conveniently leaves out their block and ban on this very project, for paid editing, among other things, which was only reversed 4 months ago. There are not generally "founders" of individual projects on Wikimedia - and all of the sources are either unreliable or nonsense. COOLIDICAE🕶21:38, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, some several Nepali-language reliable sources are translated into English for headlines as mentioned on Wikipedia:
No, just reliable news sources. So I decided to rewrite text so that it signifies the subject is notable and remains to exist on Wikipedia as a standalone article. Absolutiva (talk) 22:04, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for mostly the same reasons the nominator mentions. I don't trust any of the "sources" that are used to claim Tulsi is notable given this user has a very long history of UPE. --SHB2000 (talk) 08:16, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I rarely comment on AFDs but given past history of Tulsi these sources presented by Absolutiva do not convince. I too share UPE concerns given these comments.--A09|(talk)11:03, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A biased article (regarding the undisclosed block) can be fixed, and I think the wording issues (eg "founder") can be attributed to language barriers. The problem I see is more that out of the five sources cited, only one of them appears to be sufficiently major for it to have its own Wikipedia article (Kantipur Publications) - the other four are non-notable at best. I do not know whether such an article can be "saved" or not. Leaderboard (talk) 15:19, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and salt Just another episode in the long-running endeavour by various individuals to leverage their Wikimedia experience and goodwill for money, fame and career. There's no meat here. Sources are not independent, reliable or significant. Also fails 1E. Usedtobecool☎️04:23, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and salt the same stuff keeps on appearing once a few years. I am very against writing articles about Wikipedia editors. Its just milking at this point. shame बडा काजी (talk) 11:32, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- I wonder how someone can even think to write this article, As far I know, Tulsi Bhagat was recently released from block of more than 1 year duration due to some kind of professional issue. So its not ethical to write a Wikipedia article on such controversial subject. This is my personal view. Regarding notability, It has coverage but not in independent media. Hereby fails notability.

Contested redirect without improvement (along with a personal attack). Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources to support meeting WP:GNG. Onel5969TT me22:53, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If this was a state level sports stadium in the US would this deletion nomination ever have been put forward? Let's try and counter - not reinforce - Wikipedia's bias problems. Atrapalhado (talk) 09:20, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP
This is a perfectly valid article that should not have been put forward for deletion (if you get your kicks deleting articles people have worked hard on, at least focus on the many thousands of unnecessary articles on US sports and popular culture, rather than seeking to scrap valid articles from non western/ non Anglosphere country topics which are inevitably harder to source but no less notable).
Anyway, this is clearly a major regional cricket ground in Nepal. Sources make clear it's one of the grounds for the major cricket tournament in the country. The article is substantially developed. Yes it needs more sources but the source cited is independent and provides good material. If our friend who put this forward for deletion wanted to do something more useful with their time, he/she could readily add additional sources from independent professional cricketing sites which can be readily found on Google. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atrapalhado (talk • contribs) 23:42, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

keep there is some in depth coverage here and independent coverage here and here, there is news coverage of them [1][2][3][4][5] some of which contain in-depth coverage of the electoral mechanics and factions in the organization. Clearly notable. --hroest20:09, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
you are mistaken. There are other such unions with similar names. Plz make sure you search with exactly same name ( Sixth) RJM group. If you find anything with that particular name , plz let me know. There are many unions with initial name All Nepal National Independent Student Union but here sixth and RJM group is also included which lacks notability. Rahmatula786 (talk) 03:15, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Based solely on reliable secondary coverage (or lack thereof, i.e. WP:ORG), this article should at best be turned into a redirect to a section of their parent organisation's article. Size is irrelevant; there are Final Fantasy XIV clans with more than 59 regional branches. Yue🌙17:21, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: There is no significant discussion or consensus here yet. The arguments are of keep, delete and merge at 1 each vote after another keep was striked out. No significant mention of policies and their relevance. Discussion sought for a consensus would be whether WP:TOOSOON if there is minor or no notability or should be kept per WP:ATD. Please add new comments below this notice.

Keep - Nepal Revolutionary Students' Union, a.k.a. Nekravisangh, is a major organization. It has declined in the past, but it was the dominant student movement in Bhaktapur for many years. --Soman (talk) 09:48, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Causing deaths and being reported in the news do not confer notability. Fails WP:EVENT. The only retrospective coverage I can find is one sentence where it describes the response as only nominal. Everything else that comes up for me covers a different bus crash in Jajarkot from 2021. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸22:41, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I find it hard to accept that an accident killing 47 people is not notable. It certainly would be without demur in Western Europe or North America, so I think WP:SYSTEMIC applies here. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:31, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't think this single event merits its own page. Does not have WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE. Tragedies are reported all the time, but if they do not have a notable impact to wider issues, then it may not be enough. Ramos1990 (talk) 01:29, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
