Non-notable individual lacking in-depth, non-trivial support. References are mostly single line mentions, press releases, and relate to the company he owns. Notability appears to be based on his firm buying gems. reddogsix (talk) 04:54, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep & Permanent protection, well-known gemstone auctioneer based in Toronto. Featured by independent news sources including The Globe and Mail, Toronto Sun, Toronto Star, Business News Network, American City Business Journals, CityNews. G.Isabelle (talk) 05:11, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Being mentioned in newspaper articles about other subjects isn't sufficient. The articles must be specifically about the subject of the WP article, in this case Kashif Khan. For example, the Toronto Star article is about a diamond, and had a statement by Khan about the diamond. Mind matrix 15:53, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - What is Permanent protection? That is such an unusual !vote that I have to ask the author whether they have a conflict of interest. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:33, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
