Pavan Reddy Appakonda

Article about a real estate investor that does not establish biographical notability. The article contains minimal information, and basically says that he is a real estate investor. Naïve Google search finds that he uses social media, and has publicized himself well. (If there were secondary coverage, it would be hard to weed out from his advertising.) A check of the references shows, again, that he generates publicity for himself. Five of the six references are interviews, and one is written by him. There is no independent coverage in the article. There is no secondary coverage in the article.

Number	Reference	Remarks	Independent	Significant	Secondary
1	Businessworld.in	An interview	No	Yes	No
2	Zeenews.india.com	Another interview, reads like a puff piece	No	Yes	No
3	Financialexpress.com	An article by the subject	No	Yes	No
4	Republicnewsindia.com	An interview that reads like a press release	No	Yes	No
5	Rdtimes.in	Another interview that reads like a press release	No	Yes	No
6	Theindianbulletin.com	A piece that uses the first person plural	No	Yes	No

He may or may not be notable, but if he is notable, a neutral editor should start from the beginning, not from this article. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:56, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment One anonymous column in the International Business Times India written by their "Entertainment Desk", various other hits, not sure that adds up to notability. Oaktree b (talk) 15:23, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, non-notable PR junk. Note that I have removed three of the refs: "republicnewsindia", "rdtimes", and "theindianbulletin". All three are junk blogs pretending to be news sources, and are run by the same SEO scammer. Kuru (talk) 20:40, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
