Generally fails WP:NOTABILITY and WP:GNG, there are no footnotes in the article and not enough information for direct sourcing. I tried to find more sources for this article but I couldn't. GoodHue291 (talk) 23:55, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Photography and India. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 02:13, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Brian Brake. This could have been done without a discussion. I'm skeptical of GoodHue291's WP:BEFORE search; I suspect a determined editor could find sources for this subject to pass WP:GNG. However, I see no reason that it needs a standalone article. Daask (talk) 12:04, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Question, why would you be skeptical about my WP:BEFORE search? GoodHue291 (talk) 18:46, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge is the most sensible option. The photgraph is notable and featured in numerous publications globally. NealeWellington (talk) 08:53, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, as a notable photograph or series of photos (there are many Wikipedia articles on photographs) the topic is well sourced, although these sources are listed on the page as 'Further reading'. This coverage easily meets GNG. No need to merge to the photogrpaher's page as it already has much of this information and a merge does not take into consideration Aparna Sen, the subject of the well-known staged cover-worthy photograph.

Merge to Brian Brake. These photos are notable, but not notable enough for their own article. The content would be better merged into the artist's article. David Palmer//cloventt ^(talk) 07:40, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If the photos are notable then where is the line drawn to be "notable enough"? Randy Kryn (talk) 09:54, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
