This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Goa. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add ((Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName)) to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding ((subst:delsort|Goa|~~~~)) to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Goa.

Articles for deletion[edit]

Albert Vivian D'Costa

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Completely unsourced article which fails WP:NBIO. Redirect to List of people from Goa as an WP:ATD since subject is mentioned there. CycloneYoris ^talk! 21:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of India-related deletion discussions. CycloneYoris ^talk! 21:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Engineering, Transportation, and Goa. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 22:15, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nishtha Desai

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

doesn't meet notability criteria Pblcpvt (talk) 13:07, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors, Women, Crime, Travel and tourism, Sexuality and gender, and Goa. Skynxnex (talk) 13:10, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2024 May 7. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 13:17, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The editor proposing deletion has edited no other article. PamD 09:05, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I have expanded the sources in the article. A multi-page chapter in a book discusses her and her work,^[1] she is widely quoted in the news thereby meeting WP:BASIC (see article for citations), she has one publication that has been reviewed (not a pass of WP:AUTHOR but contributing to notability). DaffodilOcean (talk) 11:59, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The chapter quotes her and not really a profile of her only. But possibly can be overlooked. Jgnfls (talk) 23:31, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This user has a total of six edits, 5 are changes altering my additions to the Desai article and one is a comment here at AfD. Given this, and the limited editing history of the initial nominator, I am a little concerned about the interest in this article.

Regardless, the four-page long book chapter describes Desai's personality, her dedication to children, how the organization she runs has exposed the "seedy underbelly of Goal", how she got involved in the organization. There are certainly additional details about the organization, but this is certainly WP:SIGCOV. DaffodilOcean (talk) 10:26, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The subject meets general notability criteria.--Ipigott (talk) 13:36, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

MTV Splitsvilla season 1

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

A list of 20 contestants, only 2 of whom have their own pages, plus details of who they were "dumped by" is essentially a summary-only description of a work. This season of the show is not notable independently of MTV Splitsvilla, and there's no content here that couldn't be merged to that article.

I'm creating an AfD rather than boldly redirecting etc. as MTV Splitsvilla lists individual pages for 15 seasons so think it's worth a discussion. Feedback welcome on whether this is the right approach. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Television, India, and Goa. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:55, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1. Seasons for same show do not need to have separate pages. RangersRus (talk) 18:46, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1: Per nom. Not enough content for a stand alone article. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 18:14, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I'm relisting this discussion. Have editors looked at this redirect target? It's a blank section on this article point to the page you want to delete. You're advocating redirecting an article to just a header on an article. This doesn't seem like the most sensible resolution. How about a Merge consideration?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:31, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm suggesting MTV_Splitsvilla#Seasons overview as the redirect target for MTV Splitsvilla#Season 1 (and other seasons), and removing the headers for each season. The "seasons overview" table seems to sum up all the content that would be merged anyway. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 15:44, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to MTV_Splitsvilla#Season_1. All seasons 1 to 15 pages should be merged with necessary information. RangersRus (talk) 14:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
