Fails WP:SINGER. While she has received some media coverage, it appears to be largely sensationalistic. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:09, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that the nomination for the deletion of Madhvi Madhukar’s Wikipedia article under WP:SINGER has raised concerns about her notability. However, I respectfully request a reconsideration of this nomination, as Madhvi Madhukar clearly meets the notability criteria outlined under WP:SINGER. Her article should remain on Wikipedia, and here's why:

1. Extensive Media Coverage from Credible Outlets

Madhvi Madhukar has received significant, verifiable media coverage in respected, national-level outlets, highlighting her importance as both an artist and a public figure. While it’s important to scrutinize the nature of media coverage, it’s equally important to recognize the credibility of the sources involved.

For example, Madhvi’s interview on DD News, a government-run news outlet, demonstrates her contributions to the music industry and her relevance in the broader cultural landscape. You can view the interview here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtR381zOHOc]. DD News is a well-regarded broadcaster, and her presence on this platform is a strong indicator of her notability.

Additionally, leading publications like ANI (Asian News International) and Hindustan Times have published articles featuring Madhvi’s achievements, which go beyond sensationalism. These are not fleeting mentions, but meaningful coverage in reliable media outlets with a strong reputation for reporting on notable figures.

2. Alignment with WP:SINGER Notability Guidelines

The WP:SINGER notability guideline is focused on artists who have received substantial, independent coverage from reliable sources. Madhvi Madhukar’s sustained presence in respected media outlets, including major national platforms, shows that she fits this criterion.

Her media coverage is not just superficial; it reflects ongoing recognition for her contributions to the music industry. Articles from outlets like ANI and Hindustan Times go beyond basic mentions, providing in-depth looks at her work and impact. This kind of sustained attention demonstrates her significance in the field, qualifying her for inclusion under WP:SINGER.

3. Conclusion

While it’s understandable to have questions about notability, it’s clear that Madhvi’s media presence surpasses the threshold set by WP:SINGER. Deleting her article would overlook the credible sources that validate her standing in the public eye and dismiss her genuine impact in the music world.

I would be happy to assist in further improving the article by adding additional citations or expanding the content to provide a more comprehensive overview of her career. Retaining the article would acknowledge her achievements and help document her contributions to the cultural and music landscape.

Thank you for considering this request. I believe that preserving her article is a reflection of Wikipedia’s commitment to documenting notable individuals and their contributions. Redphoenix123 (talk) 07:19, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi , I just stumbled upon her wikipeida page and was shocked to see someone have initiated deletion

I listen to her stotra on Doordarshan , National Broadcaster,Govt of India and on Radio on daily basis .here are a few proof Her Interview on lastest circulation paper of india , private television and most important in National Broadcaster Govt of India

140 Million people listen her only on youtube ,and it's very obvious that lakh of people will want to know about her. Please verify her through Google keyword planner and Google Auto suggest and related suggest when you type madhvi madhukar on google.

This clearly suggest that her song in

Panchayat 3  series is the most watch and popular in  OTT platform , 

Ram Mandir consecration  was most hyped event in Indian history  

And Her Divine voice in Golden wedding card in Asia richest person son and getting her invitation in marriage is beyond this temporary sensation.

She is India cultural icon and re inventing oldest langauge Sanskri through her divine voice — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pranavg2010 (talk • contribs) 14:54, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Yet another AfD where people claim - in 2025, when they should know better! - that Zee news, gossip blogs, and YouTube are reliable sources. I was born on a Monday, but not last Monday. Claiming that someone is notable because she sings in Sanskrit is untenable; Basque has entered the building. It's not our responsibility that in India, infomercials have taken over previously responsible media there, so sourcing about almost anything or anyone recently in India just verifies existence, but does not constitute significant coverage. 15 Crore (150 million) downloads could be a hint of notability, but we need better sources.

  i have very few edits crown and nothing infront of you when compared to your number of edits However not as her fan but am aware of her credibility, popularity , and contribution to the Indic Culture. I will try my best once again to put forth my view.

  Only National Broadcaster of Govt of India, Doordarshan and DD news telecast her sanskrit song to 1.6 billion people of India . 140 million people just on youtube lsten her. Google Keyword planner and Google auto suggest, and other search engine platform like Baidu and Bing alao suggest about her. This clearly suggest people are curious to know about her and wikipeida is the best platform about someone's information or biography .She is popular not in india , but also in neighbouring countries like in Nepal, Maldives etc. If

  You mentioned zee news only , but her interview and news are often in top 3 circulation paper of India and top 5 news channel of India.This includes Dainik Jagran, Dainik Bhaskar,Hindustan, Times of India,ABP, ANI, Hindustan Times, Nav bharat ,Lokmat, Prabhat khabar etc and in India Top electronic media like Republic channel,ABP News, News 18 Network ,GNT( Aaj Tak) , News 24, News Nation, many more .just a simple google search about madhvi madhukar and relevant keywords and you will find all the details which I have mentioned.

  Her Interview on many news paper and private channel and most important the only National Broadcaster of India, by Government of India, DOORDARSHAN National , and DD news ( I have shared the link earlier ) clearly suggest her credibility and notability.

  Her LIVE program across India by Government of India and various State Government and institutions clearly suggest her credibility as a Indian singer .

  The editor has pointed that all media projected her just because of sensationalism. It was just a coincidence that all big events or scenario in india in 2024 was most talked about and it's very natural for media to project it

  Asia Richest family Mukesh Ambani son wedding in 2024 was hyped event and her participation naturally is subjected to sensation. She lend her voice in wedding golden card and in marriage function. This events made headline across the world as world top pop singer and personality participated and performed which includes Justin Bieber, Rihanna , lady Gaga,Beyonce , kim kardashian and many more .this created a ripple not only in india but in the world. They spent 100000 Million dollar or ( 10000 Crore ) in wedding but Madhvi Madhukar refused to take money from them made her the figure of sensation across all media

  Ram mandir 2024 was the most emotional religious events for indian society so parti

  Her song in Panchayat season -3 released in 2024 , ( Panchayat season 3 is one of the most watched web series in Amazon and india. 46 Million watched.

  I have seen thousands of wikipeida page about person who has no notability or credibility yet they are there.

  I earnestly request the person to take back this deletion initiation and request wikipedia community to enrich this article on the behalf of 150 million of peope who listen her on youtube and also for millions of people in India who listen her religious song, telecast by only National Broadcaster of Government of India DOORDARSHAN NEWS AND DOORDARSHAN NATIONAL and All India Radio and also who participate in her live programs

  Wikipedia is the most relevant information and deleting her page will wean or deprive millions of people to know about her . Proof is Madhvi madhukar jha wikipeida , Madhvi Madhukar biography is now a popular keyword indexed in Google, Bing and other search engines.
