Non-notable award.No non-trivial coverage (other than mere mentions of recipients, when they confer it) about the award. ∯WBG^converse 14:05, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Award is notable and independent of subjects they are conferred. It is awarded by the Indian National Theatre. This award is covered by Trivedi, Ramesh. M. (2005) Gujarati Sahityano Itihaas. (History of Gujarati Literature). Ahmedabad: Adarsh Prakashan as referenced in the article which is book of history of literature (independent, non-trivial source). This award is also covered by several Gujarati sources but English references are scant because it is Gujarati literature award. -Nizil (talk) 10:55, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is not inherited.We need significant coverage in multiple reliable sources.News-tickers about a conferral in three-four lines or scant mentions in a book hardly passes that. Please provide sources, accordingly.......∯WBG^converse 04:58, 6 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Nizil Shah: FYI Gujarati sources are fine. Sources do not have to be in English. —Мандичка^YO 😜 19:50, 9 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Indian National Theatre. I don't think the award itself merits a full article at this point because of the lack of notability (and apologies, but I can't really do a WP:BEFORE in Gujarati and claim to be able to understand it). That being said, if it is awarded by Indian National Theatre, which is for now can be presumed to be a notable subject unless it is challenged, surely it could be mentioned there and anything considered relevant could be brought over as an alternative to deletion. Then, if sources come to light and detailed notability worthy of an article's worth of content is established, an article could be recreated. Red Phoenix ^talk 00:26, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
