Lots of awards but after substantial googling all pretty unimportant. I'm still not 100% sure what a Peetadhipathi is because it's never actually defined on the page the word redirects to, but from the best I can work out it's essentially the leader of a temple. It looks like there's been some serious OR going on here, pretty much every page linked to on this page has 0 reliable citations.
The page for his organisation claims without source to have been created in the 15th century, but is itself a congregation of an occult religion of which the much better sourced article says it was founded in the US in the 19th century? Some crazy stuff going on here on WP:V grounds, but we can definitely start trimming articles on the margins like this. BrigadierG ( talk) 02:08, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

- Draftify, the article reads like an ad, and is mostly made up by a list of achievements, most of which are unsourced. - I.R.B.A.T( yell at me) ( The IRBAT Files) 17:19, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
- Delete: I'm not sure what this person is (appears to be a religious leader), but the sourcing isn't helpful. I can't find much to support keeping the article. nothing in RS I'd use to write an article Oaktree b ( talk) 23:00, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
