*'''Merge with [[List of The Apprentice candidates (UK series two)#Syed Ahmed]].''' The subject is largely notable for his appearance on the reality TV show and so is only notable for one event as per [[WP:1E]], however, the subject has remained active since then. His career after his TV appearances are verifiable in multiple, independent, reliable secondary sources so he at the very least fulfills [[WP:BASIC]]. They should not be included in his "mini-bio" at the suggested merge page. [[User:N4|N4]] ([[User talk:N4|talk]]) 03:00, 7 February 2014 (UTC) |

AfDs for this article:
- Syed Ahmed (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log · Stats)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This is a cleverly crafted article about the subject but who's fundamental notability for an article here requires discussion. He appeared briefly in a TV reality show. The article appears stuffed with fluff to make the subject significantly more notable than they are. Leaky Caldron 20:08, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

- Comment To my surprise all the previous AfDs listed are about this person and so this is actually the fifth nomination:
- May 2006 - delete Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Syed Ahmed
- August 2006 - keep Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Syed Ahmed2
- September 2006 - delete Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Syed Ahmed3
- March 2009 - keep Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Syed Ahmed (entrepreneur). Thryduulf (talk) 22:10, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
- Move and redirect. The only to things he has done that are actually potentially notable in our terms are to have appeared on The Apprentice and to have appeared in a documentary about him starting his own hand dryer business with the latter entirely down to the former and actually I think would confer more notability on the company (SAVortex, which doesn't seem to have ever had an article) than on him. If the company were notable then I'd suggest a very heavily trimmed version of this article could be merged there, but as it isn't I'd suggest moving this page back to Syed Ahmed (entrepreneur) (so Syed Ahmed (politician) can take the primary topic title) and then redirect to The Apprentice (UK series 2).

- Delete altogether, and make a protected redirect to the politician so the article cannot be diverted. Appearing in a game show is not notability, and it's time we decided that once and for all. 'DGG (at NYPL)' (talk) 20:27, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

- An article about him has been created on the London Wiki - possibly needing some development, so a compromise with WP can be reached. Jackiespeel (talk) 00:00, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
- Keep - Since his participation on The Apprentice: the subject has maintained his media and business profile, and gained more notability. Tanbircdq (talk) 17:02, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
