[edit] Ahana Deol

Ahana Deol (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Does not meet WP:BIO or WP:NOTE. A very minor dancer can't become an encyclopedia entry just because her parents are famous (we can't start writing articles on an entire horde of children born to all celebrities past present and future). The article was already deleted once on these very grounds (see: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ahana Deol) and nothing has changed ever since concerning the subject or the article.

Comment Hundreds and thousands of new aspiring directors get to declare their upcoming projects - typical celebrity page fodder, where parties and gossips rule. It's the Warlholian 15 minutes of fame in action. About the considerable Google returns, all I can say is - my name actually returns more hits. Aditya Kabir 16:54, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Google hits demonstrate more than fleeting public interest. She seems to be something of a celebrity in India. Kla'quot 06:09, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Comment Couldn't disagree more. If you cared to read even the search return headlines you wouldn't have said this. Her name returns a little more than 500 hits (as opposed to over 50,000 hits generated by my name), and beyond the second page most entries are consistently about Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol or Esha Deol - her siblings (a few are also about Dharmendra or Hema Malini - her parents). She has an IMDB entry that has nothing beyond a five minute role in a most forgettable movie, and a couple of mentions on a couple of sources of dubious authenticity (on the first few Google pages) that has her declaring a plan to direct a movie. Even as dancer Google only finds her mentioned only when performing with her sister Esha. And, oh, she has a new boyfriend, too (does that help increase her notability?). In short, she almost never had any media coverage except in conjunction with her family, and she almost never was quoted as a person in those reports either.
