AFD nominations

It looks like you're having some difficulties with NPP and understanding the deletion policy. It appears based on the notices above that you may be a bit gun shy and have resorted to sending articles to AFD rather than CSD. It is important to understand the understand the correct process under which articles may be deleted. A lack of understanding one process does not default to sending it for deletion through another inappropriate process. For example, we do not send articles to AFD because they fail to indicate importance or significance of the subject. Before nominating further articles for deletion, please review the deletion policy and the processes outlined by the community. Review the CSD process. Then review the AFD process. Follow this up with nominating articles accordingly through the correct process. Sending it to the incorrect venue creates quite a bit of work for others. If you have questions, please feel free to ask. Best regards, Cindy(talk) 16:26, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Chandran

Hi Wikianoldie. I did not think this one met criteria for speedy deletion, as there was coverage in The New Indian Express, and the subject has a lead role in a film by a notable director. Regards, Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 00:34, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
