No evidence of notability. A filmography videography, alone, is not evidence of notability, even if the sources were impeccable. Previous CSD ({{ db-person}}) was rejected as "decline CSD, presence of valid sources". — Arthur Rubin (talk) 15:52, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply

WP:GNG reads "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list." I can't find significant coverage, and, even if I could, I could not tell which of the " Bollywood" magazines are reliable, and which are scandal sheets. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 16:14, 13 February 2014 (UTC) reply

Why did you strike out filmography and instead called it a videography? While filmography is a list of films and it was indeed not the accurate word to use, the videography is not really a list of television series to make it right to use. Although videography is a process of making video, someone might call a "list of videos" as videography too. The subject is a television actor who appears in Indian soap operas and not someone who appears in maybe music videos. Also, he is not a Bollywood actor to be found in reliable/unreliable sources related to Bollywood. Have you even understood what the "claimed notability" is? §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { T/ C} 07:04, 16 February 2014 (UTC) reply

There is no claim of notability in the article. I still think it qualifies for a speedy {{ db-person}} even if the person were notable. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 22:34, 16 February 2014 (UTC) reply
WP:NACTOR is the claim being made here. §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { T/ C} 05:57, 17 February 2014 (UTC) reply
For WP:NACTOR#1, I see no claim the roles are "significant", or that the television shows are "notable". I see no statement relevant to #2 or #3. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 23:33, 17 February 2014 (UTC) reply
Why isn't a 1200+ episodes TV show like Pavitra Rishta and 500+ episodes show like Bade Achhe Lagte Hain and 100+ episodes show like Tum Dena Saath Mera not notable? §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { T/ C} 09:30, 18 February 2014 (UTC) reply
The number of episodes something has doesn't show how notable it is. My self-published newspaper has 6000 editions but nobody has read it. Second Quantization ( talk) 00:28, 3 March 2014 (UTC) reply
I see Tum Dena Saath Mera (Life OK) was dropped for low ratings. Second Quantization ( talk) 00:30, 3 March 2014 (UTC) reply
You might want to check what channels air(ed) these shows and then speak on how "number of episodes" has to do with notability. We aren't talking of YouTube Channels here. §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { T/ C} 05:48, 5 March 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Weak Delete No indication of notability although the existence of Indian sources I do not have access to is possible, Second Quantization ( talk) 00:28, 3 March 2014 (UTC) reply
