If you are logged in, creating a Draft version first is optional.

Drafts are not subject to article deletion criteria like "no context" or no indication of notability so creators may have time to establish notability and make other improvements. Drafts may be nominated for deletion at [[Bharatpedia:Miscellany for deletion]] (MfD), but not solely because the draft fails to show that the notability guidelines are satisfied. A draft that has been repeatedly resubmitted and declined at AfC without any substantial improvement may be deleted at MfD if consensus determines that it is unlikely to ever meet the requirements for mainspace and it otherwise meets one of the reasons for deletion outlined in the deletion policy. Substantial leeway is given to drafts; however, the community may occasionally decide to delete a draft via MfD if it is determined that the reasons for deletion are strong.{{refn|group=note|name=MFD|It was determined in [[Bharatpedia talk:Notability/Archive 58#RfC: Does | Drafts are not subject to article deletion criteria like "no context" or no indication of notability so creators may have time to establish notability and make other improvements.
