Article doesn't establish it's notability, and reads like an ad. TrueCRaysball | #RaysUp 05:10, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
- Comment Pinging editors listed at WP:INDAFD to help establish possible notability: @Dharmadhyaksha, Titodutta, Dwaipayanc, TheOriginalSoni, and Jayantanth:@Soham, Jim Cartar, Cutest Penguin, and Rsrikanth05:. Also, I found some links, while they may not be WP:RS or significant coverage, they may help to establish verifiability and notability: A B C D E -War wizard90 (talk) 06:12, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

- Comment The first two links are very reliable. I'll look out for more. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 06:40, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - here's a good one: NBC News article —МандичкаYO 😜 11:14, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: I can't say, either way. I actually remember passing coverage of the media campaign in English language media (or notice of it) in global segments. I don't doubt that it existed, nor that it was remarked upon and praised. Since it was a public service campaign, it definitely got seen and heard by a large audience (more than many actresses in a single role). Whether a single season media educational initiative generates enough long term reference to need contextualizing (rather than a discussion in another article -- one on public awareness campaigns), I can't decide. If so, then keep. If not, then neutral. Hithladaeus (talk) 19:38, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

- Delete Reads like an ad campaign for an NGO, which doesn't necessarily make it notable. Can't seem to find much info on the awards it has won, either. I think it should be purged. Solntsa90 (talk) 00:25, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

- Keep - This article meets the general notability guidelines and have significance coverage in reliable sources. @War wizard90 and TrueCRaysball: as @Northamerica1000: suggested that the tone of the article should be improved as per Wikipedia standards instead of ditching it.— CutestPenguinHangout 05:08, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Cutest Penguin: I never suggested that we ditch it, I merely added a neutral comment. However, given the sources provided by Northamerica1000 I have no issues with keeping this article. -War wizard90 (talk) 05:16, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

- Delete - Fails to meet WP:GNG. --92slim (talk) 18:22, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- @92slim:Care to tells us how it fails to meet GNG? Or is a keep argument of - "meets WP:GNG" a sufficient enough rebuttal to your argument? -War wizard90 (talk) 22:03, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
- Note that on Wikipedia, the absence of citations in an article (as distinct from the non-existence of sources) does not indicate that the subject is not notable. Topic notability is based upon source availability, rather than the state of sourcing in articles. However, sources were added to the article after it was nominated.

- Merge and Redirect to HIV/AIDS in India - There are sufficient sources to cover it on Wikipedia in some fashion -- I just don't think there's enough for a stand-alone article. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:05, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. Sufficient sources in article now (June 21) to indicate notability of the subject.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 22:38, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
