This "book" is in no way affiliated with the Guinness world records. Based on its own site, it, "India book of records", and its other children companies by a man named Biswaroop Roy Choudhary. The lack of reliable articles supporting it, and the dubious names like "World records university" being affiliated to it (taken from its site )further show its non-notability.

Delete There have been ah, questionable edits on this page. Non-notable, even says it's fake. This article most definitely should be deleted. I'm surprised it hasn't been deleted already. TuorEladar (talk) 17:06, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete - WP:MADEUP, or in the alternative, WP:MILL and WP:SPAM. Bearian (talk) 15:31, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Notice how none of the references (including the "references" added here) actually cover the subject? These are all brief newspaper reports on records/record attempts that are claimed to be for the ABoR. I don't think we can claim it is fake – the website clearly exists – but there is zero notability. Anyone can register a website and build a data base of anything they like. That doesn't make the data base notable. --bonadea contributions talk 14:17, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I nominated the "affiliated" India Book of Records in another AfD discussion, just FTR. I don't think their notability it necessarily completely connected, so it's better to have separate discussions (even though I obviously think they are equally non-notable). --bonadea contributions talk 15:11, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Doesn't add up. This company and a bunch of other are all connected to an organization named "World Records University". The URL for the .com redirects to the .co.uk page which is boldly emblazoned with "Registered Under Govt.of United Kingdom. Registration No. 284666862". A search in the UK companies office yields no trace (although there are a number of similar sounding companies). This looks to be WP:MADEUP to me. In any case, nothing I can find indicates it meets the criteria for notability, fails NCORP/GNG. HighKing⁺⁺16:37, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
