  • Comment: Please note that notability of an individual for an article on Wikipedia requires that there's "significant", "independent", coverage in "reliable sources." For this purpose, lists, interviews (with limited exceptions), event listings, album links etc do not count. There are only two or so sources (Ref 14, Ref 2) in the current article that say something significant about Krish Baha and why he's relevant. I suggest finding similar and more sources and removing references that are not necessary. I believe notability is close but not quite there yet. WeWake (talk) 21:18, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
