Draft declinedThank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.
FeedbackThe reviewer, LEvalyn, left the following feedback:
Reliable sources include: reputable newspapers, magazines, academic journals, and books from respected publishers.
Unacceptable sources include: personal blogs, social media, predatory publishers, most tabloids, and websites where anyone can contribute.
Replace any unreliable sources with high-quality sources. If you cannot find a reliable source for the material, it should be removed.
Typically, an author meets our criteria to have an article by having 2+ books with 2+ published, independent reviews each. The review of Door Durgam Durust in The Book Review looks good, but we need a second one like that to show that the book meets our book criteria, and then one of his other books also needs two reviews cited. Be careful to avoid interviews, book cover reviews, release events, etc, as only in-depth independent analysis of the book itself will "count".
Additionally, all information in a biography of a living person must be cited, so all currently-uncited material either needs to have a source added or be removed.
Next steps
Edit Draft:Umesh Pant to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.
When you are ready to resubmit your draft for review, click the Resubmit button.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it may be deleted.
There are additional independent reviews of the author’s books in established Hindi publications such as Dainik Jagran, Amar Ujala, and Outlook Hindi. These include substantive book-focused reviews, though many are from print editions without online links.
As per Wikipedia guidelines, I can add them with full citation details and provide scans if needed. I’ll also ensure only qualifying reviews are included and address any uncited material.
There's no need/way to provide scans, but if you add a citation with the full info about the print publication, that is OK. You'll have to do it as a "manual" citation; there's a little info on how to do so here. Sources in any language are fine. When you think the article is ready, resubmit the draft and another editor will take a look. ~ le 🌸 valyn (talk) 06:14, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
