Failed WP:GNG, WP:SINGER, WP:BANDMEMBER with no WP:SIGCOV for individual notability other than passing mentions from X:IN-related reportings including but not limited to her "about"-type reporting as part of X:IN's debut-related promotional reportings from WP:BEFORE. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 14:00, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete I think she doesn't meet WP:NACTOR or WP:NSINGER. Unable to meet roles in three featured films. Unable to see her work in any National Music chart. Bakhtar40 (talk) 09:25, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - there are several articles that establish notability as they are indepth: 1, 2, 3 and others.Darkm777 (talk) 20:27, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The only potential would be the first reference. The second clearly states that it was authored by a third party (no editorial oversight) and the third has no byline and is routine churnalism that falls under WP:NEWSORGINDIA.--CNMall41 (talk) 22:32, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I get your argument with the 3rd party content. I had not seen that. However, is there an specific guideline you refer to that says having no bylines means that they are not reliable? If so, please post the link here. Darkm777 (talk) 02:42, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also there are several more articles

There are more in Google. Just search her under "aria from kerala." She is notable. Darkm777 (talk) 02:55, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

X:IN debuted on 11 April 2023 and the 8 sources are published in the same week of X:IN's debut that Aria is part of hence I'm not sure how exactly it's different from my rationale that "[she] lacks individual notability other than passing mentions from X:IN-related reportings including but not limited to her "about"-type reporting as part of X:IN's debut-related promotional reportings". — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 14:31, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

So are you saying that if someone is in the news 8 times in one week, then it must be some kind of PR or paid placement? I do not agree with this assessment. To me it appears that she joined a k-pop band that was popular so it became a big news story and many publications wrote about it. Darkm777 (talk) 03:13, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Well, 8 sources from Indian publisher 🤔 ... WP:NEWSORGINDIA guidelines pretty much covered it. Regardless, it's okay to have different opinions as this is WP:NOTCONTEST. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 14:03, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
