List of Hindu Nobel laureatesHello SpacemanSpiff! Well, I am also a content creator for Wikipedia like many others. I mostly dabble with languages, writing systems, trade etc., but my domain is very expansive. I will come straight to the point, I read this article about 'Muslim Nobel laureates' and thought of creating one for Hindus as well, but after creating a link, I found that this article could only be created with your permission. I know there were some failed attempts regarding this topic in the past, but I assure you, I have very sincere intentions of creating this article and I am ready to take your inputs before creating one.

नमस्कार Abecedare! As I would look at it, this subjective debate of the discoveries/inventions of the Nobel laureates contradicting some of the ideas of the religion they followed (even if following it agnostically) is as old (or even older) as the award itself. There have been multiple isolated attempts at generalising the demographics (particularly the religion) of the winners by various sources, whether sincere or not, including the one you shared with me. I cannot say with determination that there has been some scholarly analysis of the Nobel laureates following (or once followed, like in the case of Amartya Sen) Hinduism, but I have come across several articles (mostly by Israeli or Jewish publications) discussing and trying to come to a conclusion as to why a religion with ~0.2% of the global population has ~25% of the Nobel laureates (mostly American or European Jewish laureates, not Israeli). There also are articles discussing why Islam, with ~25% of the global population has ~1% of the Nobel laureates (One even disregarded as Muslim by his own government, as is the case with Abdus Salam). I could provide links to all these articles, but I believe it is unnecessary here. Also, with my approach, I am not disregarding any laureate based on his/her religion, afterall an individual winning an award has to do with the expansive scope of their research, not their beliefs. Looking at all these articles makes you wonder as to where is any credible source for laureates following Hinduism (because one scoffing at this approach by stating the article for Indian Nobel laureates is enough is wrong in principle), and if there aren't, then I believe Wikipedia is one of the best places for such an article; afterall, for many (including me), Wikipedia is the primary source for information digestion. As I have already stated, I don't know when was this article first created, but looking at the deletion and undeletion log of the article makes me wonder the cause and reasoning of these actions behind this very article. I hope this rather factless response might provide a better understanding as to why I want this article to be created (or undeleted) by the administrator:) Rishu Shukla (talk) 15:23, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
Hi SpacemanSpiff, take a look at the history of Vivek Agnihotri searching for the word "published". Outside of the IPs, I see a couple blocked socks in July (Waftcinemas and EntertainmentBollywood) tied to Bikrookanpurgangster. I suspect Shree Krishna 1234 is a sock as well.
