REDIRECT to Miss Universe Sri Lanka. Fails WP:GNG - the winner of a national beauty pageant (see WP:1EVENT) however apart from that there is no evidence of any other significant achievements. Failed to place at international level. Dan arndt (talk) 01:51, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Subject does not seem to be notable upon searching for reliable, secondary sources. Also, the creator of this article seems to have a undisclosed connection to the subject. WormEater13 (talk • contribs) 13:00, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

- Comment Notability concerns aside, which perhaps others may address first, I would note as the original contributor to the article that the claims of connection to subject are unfounded and likely unnecessary to the PROD discussion. Giri was a popular quizmaster for many competitions I attended (with hundreds of other students), over 12 years ago, and the motivation to contribute came from that. I don't believe that qualifies as a close connection. Cheers Komodo (talk) 03:29, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: A borderline WP:G11 article. Reads like promotion. None of the sources cited are reliable or do anything to establish notability. Junbeesh (talk) 08:52, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: The article has been updated significantly. The promotional content was removed and factual information was re-written in a WP:NPOV tone. Further, primary and promotional materials citations were removed and independent, secondary and reliable sources from media coverage were added. Let me know if this doesn't address your WP:NOTABLE concerns or if you have any other feedback. Komodo (talk) 18:15, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: Looks like an advertisement or promotional article. Possible Wp:COI. Zuck28 (talk) 11:32, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: The article has been updated significantly and content contributed by possible COI editor has been removed in this re-write. Let me know if you have further feedback. Komodo (talk) 18:15, 21 April 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: Article was significantly re-written to address concerns noted in this article -- including secondary coverage and reliable sources. WP:NOTABILITY concerns should have been addressed as well with this coverage, but further information on why this article meets the criteria: (a) Significant coverage in reliable and independent sources: He has received coverage beyond simple announcements or listings. Sources like news outlets (Times of India, Deccan Herald snippets mentioning quizzes he hosts), articles about major events he leads (Tata Crucible coverage, TCS IT Wiz) but does not own, interviews (like in People Matters), and platforms featuring his talks (TEDx) constitute significant mentions in reliable contexts. While his company website or speaker profiles are primary or promotional, significant coverage exists independently. (b) Evidence of recognition and impact: His position as the quizmaster for the high-profile Tata Crucible quizzes since 2004 is a long-standing, nationally recognized role. Similarly, hosting the large-scale TCS IT Wiz/InQuizitive adds to this prominence. Greycaps, his company, has been described in multiple sources as one of Asia's largest in its niche. Finally, he is a frequent speaker, including on platforms like TEDx, that demonstrates a public profile and recognition in his field.
