This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Hinduism. 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|Hinduism|~~~~}} 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.
- 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 other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Hinduism. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

- Weak Keep After analyzing the references i can say, this topic meets somewhere WP:BASIC. CresiaBilli (talk) 13:27, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- WP:VAGUEWAVE, WP:SOURCESEXIST. You have not identified any actual coverage. One of multiple throw away !votes recently from this individual. duffbeerforme (talk) 23:50, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: That is mostly routine coverage, which usually appears due to their statements. The subject has never won any election so far. So basically, subject fails WP:NPOL, and along with that, also fails WP:GNG. Baqi:) (talk) 14:33, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete – Out of the 20 sources, most are political, with some related to elections and others to controversial political comments. In India, political figures typically receive coverage during elections or after making controversial remarks, with the latter attracting more attention. This individual has not yet won an election, so they do not meet WP:NPOL criteria. Sources related to Kalki Dham also fail to meet WP:GNG. All sources about their personal life are promotional. -SachinSwami (talk) 11:16, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
- Aulikara−Hunnic War (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
The subject matter doesn't meet notability according to WP:GNG and WP:EVENTCRIT. It has not received enough coverage in reliable secondary sources; primarily, the content is original and speculative. There is also significant overlap with existing articles on Aulikaras and the Alchon Huns, making the entry a copy. The Red Archive (talk) 18:40, 25 May 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History, Military, Hinduism, India, Punjab, and Uttar Pradesh. The Red Archive (talk) 18:40, 25 May 2025 (UTC)

- Vellimalai Sri Vivekananda Ashramam (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources to support meeting WP:GNG. Onel5969 TT me 11:10, 17 May 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: agree per nom - not able to find much for WP:RS. Sources currently used seems mostly promotional and also e.g. without any staff writer in the byline - simply as "NEA News Service", "Express News Service". Also, e.g. I see that one news source link is flagged as "potential security risk". Asteramellus (talk) 12:12, 17 May 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Organizations, Hinduism, and Tamil Nadu. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 13:12, 17 May 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: This centre is a very important one in South Tamilnadu; the annual events conducted by the ashramam is a large event and is being attended by 25000+ students annually. The article cites three prominent newspapers from India: 1. The New Indian Express, a well-regarded and leading English-language daily in India; 2. Dinamalar, the third most widely circulated Tamil newspaper; and Dinamani, the most esteemed publication in the Tamil language. Those links are cited inline and shall be verified. - Vaikunda Raja (talk) 07:50, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Promotional article. Koshuri (グ) 14:17, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
