This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Pakistan. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Pakistan|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Pakistan. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.
This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Asia.

The situation appears to be unchanged from the last AFD: this academic is listed online (in primary sources such as his own books or copies of his conference papers) but has not received coverage within reliable and independent publications. arcticocean 18:29, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: I can’t believe this didn’t come to my attention sooner!! It's quite a shameful AUTOBIO. It was created by an Oman-based IP back in 2019 when the subject was a professor at Sohar University, Oman per his LinkedIn profile. Then it was mostly written by Ajman, UAE-based IPs such as 2001:8F8:1E23:7A12:1C9D:4C83:84C1:AA8A, 5.193.101.156, 109.177.94.190, 109.177.82.11, 109.177.87.49, 109.177.104.239 who are also likely associated with the subject, especially since the subject moved to Ajman as a professor at Ajman University in 2020. If one checks the logs, it’s evident that this BLP has been heavily edited from both Oman and Ajman - both places where the subject has lived. It clearly fails to meet GNG as well as WP:NPROF. it's totally promotional and the subject is clearly using Wikipedia for self-promotion. He also flaunts his Wikipedia page on his personal website [see footer]. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 19:19, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Where is it stated in the Wikipedia policy that a notable person cannot mention a Wikipedia page link on their websites? 2001:8F8:1E3F:42B:21DA:EE2C:4F13:B1CF (talk) 22:50, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- I believe he also meet GNG. He established Pakistan's National Cybersecurity Center and Pakistan's first undergraduate cybersecurity program. 2001:8F8:1E3F:42B:21DA:EE2C:4F13:B1CF (talk) 23:07, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Again, where is the secondary coverage? There are lots of secondary coverage about Mubashir_Husain_Rehmani. Seriously, all this talk is being documented, and will make incredibly harder to get your page back. Now you will have to appear in the BBC, CNBC and Al Jazeera to be considered again for a Wiki page. Wikipedia is not LinkedIn! Contributor892z (talk) 05:46, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- I compared Prof. Khan's profile with the following Pakistani computer scientists. If the following are meeting the GNG and WP:NPROF then Prof. Khan's page is also meeting the required criteria.

personal grudges
Seriously Mr. Khan, it’s not worth it. let’s chill! — Saqib (talk I contribs) 23:18, 2 November 2024 (UTC)- Who khan? I think you have something personal with Khans. I can understand. 2001:8F8:1E3F:42B:21DA:EE2C:4F13:B1CF (talk) 23:26, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. It's been enough years since the previous AfD that the previous WP:TOOSOON arguments do not really apply. But the only case to be made for notability appears to be through WP:PROF#C1; he doesn't meet the other PROF criteria and we have no evidence of GNG notability. Setting aside the quality of his publications, this is a high-citation field and the top-cited works on his Google Scholar profile [1] all appear to be surveys. I don't think the remaining ones have sufficient demonstrated impact to pass C1. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:21, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Are you from the same domain? How can you pass a judgement if the number of citations are not enough? Prof. Khan is listed among the world's top 2% scientists in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 WP:PROF#C1. He also serves on the editorial boards of more than eight high impact journals WP:PROF#d. He has delivered multiple keynote talks at international IEEE conferences WP:PROF#e. 2001:8F8:1E3F:42B:21DA:EE2C:4F13:B1CF (talk) 22:48, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- If the subject is really notable, then why no secondary coverage? The WP:PROF#C1 criterion is indeed subjective and is just a shortcut to presume that there is notability under WP:GNG. Best way to prove notability beyond doubt is to have evidence of WP:SIGCOV, which the subject fails to have. To be highly cited under WP:PROF#C1, in my experience I have seen that 3000 citations across the entire career in computer science is still not enough without secondary coverage. Probably still needs to triple that amount, with at least a couple papers with more than 1500 citations. I agree that it would be better include quantifiable information in WP:PROF#C1 and make it less subjective, but I doubt this will ever happen. Contributor892z (talk) 05:35, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. I have to agree that he does not meet WP:PROF and there is also no secondary coverage to show evidence of WP:GNG. The article was also poorly written and does not meet WP:NPOV by any means. Seems to be just a case of using Wikipedia for self promotion. Contributor892z (talk) 20:23, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Prof. Khan's work has been cited by thousands of independent researchers in their publications.
- For ref, check https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=j5x2DasAAAAJ and https://www.scopus.com/authid/detail.uri?authorId=55602487700. 2001:8F8:1E3F:42B:21DA:EE2C:4F13:B1CF (talk) 21:06, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Citations are not secondary coverage. Read WP:SIGCOV Contributor892z (talk) 21:15, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- I fail to understand how Wikipedia is used for self promotion in this case. Prof. Khan's personal website ranks first on Google search for his name. This page is not even in the first five google search results. 2001:8F8:1E3F:42B:21DA:EE2C:4F13:B1CF (talk) 22:53, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Seems a synthetic topic, potentially doubling as a content fork. None of the cited sources are comparative as the article purports itself to be, and do not otherwise indicate the material as something other than an original synthesis. Remsense ‥ 论 19:19, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

- Thr article is basically about an contrast to how people view Historical India as a region.
- It points out political entities in the Indian subcontinent which called themselves India in any language or form.
- Like Mughals, Mauryas,Etc.
- Could you tell me which sources are wrong as you are saying, i will surely sort them out and correct the JingJongPascal (talk) 19:26, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- You can't create an article juxtaposing whichever elements according to whatever criteria you want if sources do not themselves do that: that is original synthesis, a form of original research. If there are reliable sources that themselves compare and contrast these polities according to your criteria then you have to present and cite them, otherwise you are using sources that are focused on each individual polity to draw conclusions and observations that none of them individually make themselves.. Remsense ‥ 论 19:34, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- What sources are wrong?
- Each source is representing what they were called natively.
- If your problem is with my articles title of India as a political entity and if you think this does not draw conclusions then maybe we can discuss for alternative name of the article? JingJongPascal (talk) 19:38, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- Please see the policy I linked multiple times. Again, the problem regards the subject of the article itself, which seems to be entirely synthetic on your part. You can't make an article juxtaposing whatever information you want, even if each individual piece of information is sourced. I would not be allowed to publish History of political entities whose names begin with J because that is not itself a subject established or attested in sources, even if Japan, Jin, and Jalalabad are individually. By putting them together in an article, you are making connections that are not substantiated: that is original synthesis. Remsense ‥ 论 03:19, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

- I will support a deletion here since problem with this article is that its just baseless, India's history as a region is already covered in History of India and as a nation state in History of Republic of India.This article is just unnecessary and useless.Also, per @Remsense's arguments.Thanks. Edasf (talk) 04:12, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete As Remsense said there's no sources discussing this topic in a way that would differentiate it from the similar one found in India#History. Country articles contain a history section that goes back further than whatever their current political system is. France#History starts way before 1958, for example. All of the major groups and events that would be in this article would no doubt have a place in India#History - and so far as I can tell they already do. Wizmut (talk) 20:16, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- I will stress the fundamental criteria seem particularly arbitrary: why not just "large states in historical India", if not because this particular collection is meant to illustrate a more specific conception of the history? Sources would need to exist that support and analyze such a conception. Remsense ‥ 论 20:22, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - we are not here trying to lay down or advocate for certain historical views. We are supposed to reflect what others have written. Unless there are sources which substantially cover this topic as framed here, the page trying to do something outside of the remit of an encyclopedia. JMWt (talk) 20:25, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as per nom. over generalized title as well UzbukUdash (talk) 05:09, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- i understand all arguments ,so can we maybe work on alternative name of the article? Or maybe merging it with another article? JingJongPascal (talk) 06:56, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- We could change the article's name to "Historical usage of India" or "Historical usage of India as a political entity"?
- That woud fit better JingJongPascal (talk) 08:09, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- You do not seem to understand, as per above the issue is not with the article title, but with what the article is actually about. Its content remains exactly the same, juxtaposing subtopics to reflect an emphasis that you have seemingly invented yourself. Why would a different article title solve this problem, as I described above? Remsense ‥ 论 00:25, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

This bio clearly fails GNG, but instead of taking it to AFD, I draftified it to give the creator a chance to get it approved through AFC review. However, they reverted my draftification, leaving me no choice but to take it to AFD. Those arguing to keep it based on WP:ANYBIO #1 should also understand that meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included

- Delete Fails WP:GNG. It lacks direct and in-depth coverage in secondary sources. Cited sources quote text like "His Namaze Janaza will be offered today (Wednesday) at 14:30 hrs at Imambargah Jamia Sadiq at G-9/2 (Near Karachi Company) Islamabad. He will be buried in Karachi," which suggests that this is a paid obituary. WP:SOLDIER has been deprecated, and the awards he received are military-specific and are awarded based on the person's rank rather than their accomplishments. Only civilian awards are prestigious, so this bio fails WP:ANYBIO as well. President is different from vice chancellor so fails WP:NACADEMIC as well. 202.59.12.208 (talk) 13:44, 31 October 2024 (UTC) — 202.59.12.208 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

The subject in question served as the chancellor i.e President (education). If you don't know the differences, please don't waste time of other AfD participants. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 16:23, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- TheBirdsShedTears, I get that university presidents are usually seen as notable, but this guy's background as a soldier rather than an academic makes it a bit questionable. No? Just because he was president of a military university doesn’t mean he’s made any significant academic contributions. PS. I am glad you took the IP to task! — Saqib (talk I contribs) 14:45, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- I fear that the sources and article may not have been fully reviewed. The subject also held a notable role at the Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad, which I feel adds to his notability. From what I understand, my challenge to the draftification may have been taken personally, which could be why it went to AfD without a neutral or closer review. I'm not against taking this article to AfD; my concern is about questionable review. It TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 17:42, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- It seems that when you nominate an article for AfD, there is often strong advocacy against retention, which may come across as challenging the "keep" votes, and influencing other editors, potentially harming WP:CON. (see this, this, this, this, this, and this.........) I'm a bit concerned that this approach might be affecting the neutrality of discussions. The best practice is to review the article and the provided sources very closely, then describe the issue at the time of AfD nomination and let the community decide the fate of AfDed articles. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 17:44, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- TheBirdsShedTears, I think the AGF factor is missing here and I believe this discussion is going off track. Instead of focusing on the subject, you're discussing me and my behavior in this AFD, which isn't the right forum for that. But since you asked, let me clarify: when someone makes a WP:ATA or when someone with a questionable editing history - yes, I said questionable editing history - !votes to change the outcome of an AFD, I feel it’s necessary to counter them. That’s not a bad thing, is it? That said, if you believe this AFD is unjustified, you still have time to explain why it should be kept. If it's based on GNG, please provide links to coverage that establish WP:N. If it falls under some SNG, please clarify that. I hope it’s not NACADEMIC, as I’ve raised concerns about that. And being the Head of the Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad doesn’t inherently make someone WP:N either; they still need to meet some criteria. You must know better, don’t you? PS. this might be my last comment on this AFD to allow you and others to decide its fate. --— Saqib (talk I contribs) 18:13, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. I'm not satisfied with presented sources (they are churnalism, in my view), and my reasonable before finds nothing which meets RS. Any argument on what Wikipedia says about a subject is ridiculous, since we're not allowed to cite the pedia here. The WP:BURDEN is on those wishing to keep material to prove the case with multiple independent reliable sources directly detailing the subject. Given this is a BLP and a self-promotional autobiography to boot, I can't keep. BusterD (talk) 13:23, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

any argument on what Wikipedia says about [the] subject
(emphasis mine) (not sure whose "ridiculous
" argument based oncit[ing] the pedia
you have in mind, but on this page, there's none that I can see; the existence of pages about certain productions is only mentioned as an indication that the said productions are probably considered notable and while I agree that factor alone is not enough, the absence of a page is also, therefore, not enough to prove any given production is not notable. But a WP page is, in certain cases, the easiest starting point to check given roles are main/lead: the verification is made "via" (consider I use capital letters and bold, and in big :D) the articles (and the sources they contain); it is not based on what the article "says"; even so-so sources (cited or simply available online) can be used for verification of that, even intro of interviews (for example: the mention "‘Jalan’ star" in https://dailytimes.com.pk/696033/jalan-star-fahad-sheikh-says-fahad-mustafa-is-his-mentor/ (certainly not a great source and certainly not sufficient to demonstrate notability) allows to verify the role is not minor. Again, these sources are not direct proof of notability but help verify the roles are "significant", which is what the applicable specific guideline requires. Thank you for your concern. -My, oh my!

- Comment: I don’t want to come across as a BLUDGEON, so this may be my final comment on this AFD. I’d like to highlight that the section on entertainers clearly states,
Such a person may be considered notable if
using the term may be considered. That said, even if someone has played a few roles in TV series, I'm not convinced they deserve a BLP unless they have significant roles in multiple notable TV series, which isn't the case here, imv because many of the series in which this actor has appeared don't even easily meet WP:N, despite articles being created about them. Similarly, meeting a subject-specific guideline means the topic is presumed to be notable, not that the individual is necessarily notable. So while there may be some press coverage on the subject, it appears to be paid PR churnalism and not something that can pass GNG. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 11:03, 1 November 2024 (UTC)- You'll need a very strong reason for why the subject should be evaluated under GNG instead of WP:NBASIC and WP:NACTOR.

- Keep, I've done some research and found that it was created by SPA Fadushake (talk · contribs) but at that time this BLP pertained to film-maker of same name and existed till 2019, then in July 2020, an unknown IP hijacked this article & replaced information of film-maker with actor of same name. Now if we are seeing hijacking then article should be reverted to film-maker. I am unsure whether this hijacking will reverted or AFD will continue. If we are here about actor then he is meeting notability criteria with three major roles i.e, Jalan (verified by 24 News), Azmaish (verified by The Express Tribune) and Naam Kya Rakha (verified by Daily Times).

- Redirect to Hum_TV#Romance: I don't think that this TV series is any special from all other series produced by Hum TV. Storyline/Cast is also not notable in my opinion. Only 6-7 episodes have been aired till now. Notability can be decided when the series finishes. Wikibear47 (talk) 13:41, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- there are many television shows that have similar storylines and aren't "special" from other series, which are still on Wikipedia. This isn't a fair reasoning for deletion since people who do like this series, and want to get information about it, won't have a space where they can check all of the details. Sabreen Hisbani is the notable actress in the show, she is one of Pakistan's biggest actresses working on shows like "Laa", "Parchayee", "Aunn Zara", "Mohabbat Tumse Nafrat Hai" which have all been very succesful. Either way, cast notability shouldn't matter if the show is coming from a large Pakistani network, with proper articles, details etc. If there are any details to be added, please contribute to the article. Add sources aswell. The show itself was announced less than a month ago (teasers, name, full cast was announced on October 7, 2024) so more articles should be rolling out soon. I have also added an IMDb for the show in external links and the official Hum TV website, which states alot of the details.

"i" did not "link" anything that the guideline does not include: the link is included in the original text of the guideline, which is what I quoted: the guideline, which is a guideline (and not not-a-guideline) itself quotes mos to define what the criterion for this particular case is; check the original. other cases exist, other possibilities, other !votes, other parts of other texts, other afds but my present !vote is based on that particular part and i did not quote splitlist here, did I? "still" is the key-word in the sentence that just follows the one from the guideline that i quote. implying that someone has "selectively decided to ignore" something is not exactly a great example of assuming good faith. mentioning that someone does something "again" at afd is also not completely necessary, especially as similar cases imply similar arguments. referring to arguments or outcomes in/of other afds can be helpful to help discussion progress if similar cases offered interesting elements, not to more or less explicitly cast a cloud on contributors with general but vague ad hominem remarks. -My, oh my!

- I understand the suggestion to merge seems to make sense, if other users think size and navigation are not an issue, the page about the network being indeed short. But I think the organisation in similar categories (List(s) of programs broadcast by XXX) is very helpful and clear for the reader. For example List of programs broadcast by Hum TV was AfDed and redirected/merged back...and now it does not appear anymore under the category, so that the reader has been deprived of a simple and powerful tool that helps navigate clearly between networks, in my humble opinion. So unless we can leave the category on the page, a merge seems detrimental to navigation (Hence my !vote). -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 22:59, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

- Comment: It's a proposed entity that has received some coverage in 2023, but I don’t believe it meets NORG since there isn’t any sustained coverage. Imv, it falls under WP:TOOSOON. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 08:38, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

Delete or merge whatever else content on this page to Afghanistan–Pakistan border skirmishes. Per below and WP:REDUNDANTFORK.
This is just an un-needed fork for a page we already have. Not only that, but this page has heavy content from other groups such as the BLA, or TTP, which are scopes completely irrelevant to this topic alone. This page is named "2024 Afghanistan-Pakistan Skirmishes", but also only covers the March 2024 border Skirmishes, when there has also been skirmishes last month in September, which is included in the Afghanistan–Pakistan border skirmishes page.

- @M Waleed Firstly, there was sockpuppets involved in the original AFD, go back to it to see blocked accounts. Secondly, I never brought up WP:REDUNDANTFORK. Noorullah (talk) 03:23, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
Delete according to WP:REDUNDANTFORK. As mentioned, the incidents listed here are already mentioned in the Afghanistan-Pakistan border skirmishes page. There haven't been any incidents this year that are themselves more notable than incidents any other year to warrant this being its own article independent of the main article on this topic. And, yeah, looking at the previous AfD discussion, there seems to have been at least a little bit of sockpuppetry going on? One of the main arguments that was made in favour of keeping the article was that it contains proper sources, which is true, but those sources would be no less proper in the main article. There's no reason for this article to exist, and there's no reason to merge because, as already pointed out, the information here is already in the main article.

- "It is in my Eyes a good Article and should therefore not be deleted!" is directly against AFD policy, just because you think in your eyes it is a good article does not mean it is worthy of being kept. It is directly against Wikipedia Policy per Redundantfork. See WP:AADD, and more specifically; WP:ILIKEIT. Noorullah (talk) 22:34, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

- Merge with Afghanistan–Pakistan border skirmishes: Most of the coverage is quite routine and lacks anything particularly unusual so I don’t see NEVENT being easily met, so a standalone article isn't necessary at this time. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 08:26, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

- Weak merge. Not a lot here that can’t be contained in the list article easily. If it does prove notable through depth and length of coverage - which, there are some indications this might, it can always be re-split out. I oppose draftifying because there’s no problems solved there not solved by a merger. Pakistan specifically only very rarely has long term coverage of events that would receive retrospective coverage in many other countries. But this one seems quite severe so it could change. PARAKANYAA (talk) 20:26, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- merge to the Terrorist incidents in Pakistan in 2024 article since that suggestion was sockstriked PARAKANYAA (talk) 23:16, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

- Delete as already in Terrorist incidents in Pakistan in 2024.--Gul Butt (talk) 20:03, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep as the terrorist attack is notable enough with significant no. of deaths and easily passes WP:GNG. Mister Banker (talk) 09:21, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep as 21 deaths is a not insignificant number, and its too soon to declare WP:NOTNEWS or WP:NEVENT Jebiguess (talk) 06:11, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per Gul Butt, a merge is unnecessary in this case. This is a WP:News article and lacks sustained, significant, secondary coverage. Notability is not inherited by casualty count. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 21:32, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

- Merge to Terrorist incidents in Pakistan in 2024. I think WP:NOTNEWS comes into play here. Although the event was significant, it remains a news story, and it's hard to tell what impact it will have later on (WP:CRYSTALBALL). By merging it, users will be able to find the event if needed, but I don't think a standalone article is merited at this time. DesiMoore (talk) 15:51, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting. Arguments are divided between Keep and Merge but Keeps are weak, just asserting the subject is notable without highlighting what sources help establish GNG. Claims have to be backed up by evidence.

- Merge: to the list of "Terrorist incidents in Pakistan in 2024"; this can always be broken out again into a new article if it turns out this is a substantially notable event. It doesn't seem to be at this point. Oaktree b (talk) 14:57, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
