• Delete - Poorly sourced BLP. In ordinary times, not a big problem, but nowadays, this is a legal risk. "Anand" is an extremely common name in India, so finding additional sources is difficult. Bearian (talk) 01:43, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
• Delete. It fails to meet WP:SIGCOV. Please ping me when references containing significant coverage about the subject are found. Fade258 (talk) 16:08, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
• Keep – Multiple reliable, independent sources provide significant coverage of Adarsh Anand, demonstrating clear notability beyond routine mentions.

  The first source is clear WP:NEWSORGINDIA (no named author, promotional fluff) and the second just regurgitates what he posted on Facebook.Neither are useful for notability. S0091 (talk) 17:30, 20 September 2025 (UTC)

  Just noticed this is a duplicate !vote so should be disreagarded. S0091 (talk) 14:27, 26 September 2025 (UTC)

• Delete existing secondary sources are unreliable, per S0091. Meets neither GNG nor ENT. Also, the article was likely written using an LLM. Nothing that would qualify for speedy deletion under G15 but in addition to stylistic tells there is some evidence of LLM hallucination/SYNTH, in particular in the Personal Life section (many of the claims in this section are not supported by the provided source). So I doubt this was sufficiently human reviewed and given this is a BLP makes it even more important to get out of mainspace. I prefer deletion to draftify because no one has found any reliable secondary coverage at all NicheSports (talk) 04:22, 27 September 2025 (UTC)
