I just blanked almost the entire article because it couldn't tell fact from fiction and contained a a substantial amount of content that was about the folktale Sorath Rai Diyach instead of this ruler. Everything else was entirely based on WP:SPS. It is unclear if this is actually the same person as Rai Diyach in Sorath Rai Diyach, but I think this guy (who allegedly founded the Ror Dynasty, according to the only remaining source) fails WP:GNG. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 16:33, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nb.: The article claimed that the person was also known as Ror Kumar and Rai Diyach. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 16:44, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, not sourced properly. Sahaib (talk) 16:50, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Incorrectly delsorted to fictional entities list. There are few mentions in passing in Google Books, but notability is unclear and sourcing is poor. I am concerned about the claim they founded the Ror dynasty, but that article only mentions them as a 'see also'. Could be a mistranslation, a hoax or an error. If the creator becomes active, perhaps draftify to their userspace? PS. This is how this looked before blanking. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:35, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
