Vipin Das
Film director who does not satisfy creative notability or general notability. There already was an AFD in March 2022. I have not seen the deleted article, so am not tagging this article for G4, but am noting that there does not appear to have been any substantial change. The authors attempted to game the title with an unnecessary disambiguation, which has been removed. The references are interviews, press releases, and a review of a movie (which is about the movie).

| 5 | thenewsminute.com | A press release about a movie | No | Yes | No | |

The subject wasn’t notable two months ago, and not much has changed. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:56, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Deleteper nom as clearly non-notable (quite apart from other issues). And thank-you to the nommer for providing such a useful source analysis. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:33, 31 May 2022 (UTC)- Changing my !vote to speedy delete, now that some of the other issues are out in the open. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:13, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
- Speedy delete: Fails WP:NCREATIVE/WP:NFILMMAKER just like Das failed last time. Obvious sockery. Strongly suggest salting to seek to prevent pointless re-creation. Agree with nom on reference analysis. Suggest Speedy because this is, surely, the re-creation of an article deleted at a prior discussion. Pending the outcome of Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SuhailShaji786 potentially an article created by a block evading editor, too. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 07:19, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: Failed attempt at advertising by what I think is a paid spammer, and indeed nothing has changed in the two months. G5 may also be applicable, per the linked SPI. JavaHurricane 11:29, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
