Proposed deletion of Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) Red Flag

The article Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) Red Flag has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced and unimproved almost 15 years. Difficult to search for sources due to similar names of various factions. We are not Ballotpedia.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Bearian (talk) 01:46, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

@Bearian Thanks for being proactive in cleaning up articles, seems many such in India related. This particular one, even if is kept for any reason, those red links can be at least removed. Asteramellus (talk) 12:48, 26 January 2025 (UTC)
