I couldn't find a strong reason why this subject meets the notability criteria outlined in WP:ENT. Garvitpandey1522 (talk) 15:45, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep I've added references to it. And I'm surprised that the editor who tagged it for deletion discussion without any research. And another thing article has been approved by the New Pages Reviewer. Behappyyar (talk) 17:53, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Behappyyar: Getting marked as reviewed after an article is nominated for deletion does not mean it is “approved” by NPR. This is a process where every article sent to AfD, as long as it has no copyright or other speedy deletion violations, should be marked as reviewed. When we NPRs send articles to AfD, we also automatically mark them as reviewed. GrabUp - Talk 18:58, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Okay👍🏻 I've added references. Now, Let's see what the result will come out. Behappyyar (talk) 19:15, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: As per the nomination. Taabii (talk) 15:04, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I hope you will change your decision. When the article was tagged for deletion, it lacked references to movies and related to the subject see here, but after that I added references to it, which you can see here. Now it has improved considerably. I hope so, that you will reconsider to change your vote. Behappyyar (talk) 21:05, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Everything is either unreliable (mainly under WP:NEWSORGINDIA), interviews, or mentions. Nothing to show notability. --CNMall41 (talk) 06:33, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This is a difficult one. How do you establish the notability (or otherwise) of any entertainers from India? I found some significant coverage, but it's in a deprecated source. Several other sources are unreliable too - even The Times of India is considered unreliable, including having paid content for entertainers. Then, whether reliable or not, some of the sources added either just mention her name, or don't mention her at all (the review of Jind Mahi). This source [1] (already in the article) says that two music videos ‘Tujhe Bhoolna Toh Chaaha’ with Jubin Nautiyal and ‘Mombatiyaan’ with Maninder Buttar topped the charts. Is there other evidence that they did? If so, they might meet WP:NALBUM. If they do, was Kaur's role in the videos significant enough for that to count towards notability for her?

Yes, ofcourse there are references related to her appearance in these albums. Here are some of them. [2] [3] [4] [5]. Well, in both albums he appeared as main model. Behappyyar (talk) 15:59, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 18:38, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the sources. (2) and (3) are from or before the release of the music video, so they tell us that it features Samreen Kaur, but cannot tell us if the song topped the charts or what critics thought of Kaur in it. (4) and (5) are both Kaur talking about making the music video Baawla, not a reviewer writing about the video and her role in it. We need reliable, published sources with reviewers saying that her roles were significant (and hopefully describing more about her performance, too) - and we also need reliable evidence that the songs topped the charts. RebeccaGreen (talk) 16:15, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

[6] [7] here you go. Behappyyar (talk) 18:00, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

They certainly show that her role in that music video was significant. Unfortunately, as I wrote above, that publication is not considered reliable, and those sources can't be included in the article. See Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources. This seems to be a bigger issue than just about Samreen Kaur. RebeccaGreen (talk) 13:47, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Not noticeable person beyond niche/fringe - just another entertainer, and no thing especially significant I can find about them from acceptable reliable sources to include as stand alone article. BTSfangir1 (talk) 05:54, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

BTSfangir1 Do you want to say that an entertainer can't be notable? Behappyyar (talk) 19:17, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment An editor with only 10 edits wow. It doesn't seem right to me. May be a sock account. Behappyyar (talk) 19:15, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You only have 300 edits so let's not go there. If you feel someone is a SOCK, please take it to SPI. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:32, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
