- Delete :Actually this is a spoof or parody wikipedia article about a guy in Kolkata who did some crowdfunding to buy a printer but mismanaged some of the funds. Post that he is at the receiving end of brutal online banters, this wikipedia page is an outcome of that mass trolling. Although most of the things written in the Priyam's wiki article are factually correct, they are bolstered. Nonetheless this person doesn't qualify for this : "For people, the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice" or "note"—that is, "remarkable" or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life."

- Delete Looks like a linkedin post, simply listing what he has done. Nothing found for GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 19:48, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete very problematic article about an individual of at best marginal notability, largely about some trivial spat over a printer. Not what encyclopedias are for. Mccapra (talk) 20:07, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete fails WP:BIO. No inherent notability Pinakpani (talk) 05:34, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete per WP:G10 & Salt. The sole purpose of the article is to attack this person. I've removed the outright offensive and defamatory language but it should be deleted ASAP. Whatever has happened re the printer (what a weird sentence...), he is not notable and should not be the subject of an attack page. Jtrrs0 (talk) 09:35, 19 October 2022 (UTC). Forgot to add that we ought to salt this page to prevent it from being recreated by many of the registered account that have vandalised the article if/when they become extended confirmed. I can see no foreseeable reason why this person may become notable in the future and, if he does, removing the salting is not an issue. We ought, however, to act proactively and prevent it from being recreated, landing us in a similar position again soon.

- Comment. I've nominated the infobox image for deletion over at Wikicommons because I've realised that it's the subject's Facebook profile picture. It is inappropriate we have considering this article is little more than an attack page. Jtrrs0 (talk) 16:51, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Trivial mentions and routine coverage are insufficient to pass WP:GNG or WP:NBIO. VickKiang (talk) 20:43, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
