Faisal Qureshi (comedian) → Faisal Qureshi – Faisal Qureshi is the correct title which is redirected to Faysal Qureshi. No need of disambiguation because the page Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation) already exist. Musa Talk  00:26, 5 November 2015 (UTC) Relisted. Jenks24 (talk) 01:28, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose these are just English variants of فیصل قریشی. If anything both spellings should redirect to the dab, which should be on the baseline. None of the three individuals are specially notable. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:03, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

There is big a confusion in both of these persons. You can see even Google Search shows Imran Qureshi brother of Faisal Qureshi (comedian) as brother of Faisal Qureshi (actor). I think it should be moved to Faisal Qureshi.
 * Are فیصل قریشی and فیصل قریشی both born in 1974? It's precisely because there is a big confusion that we need WP:DISAMBIGUATION In ictu oculi (talk) 07:43, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * User:Jenks24 can you just close this please, the nom needs to sort out whether there are 3 people or 2 before moving anything. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:49, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I understand your opinion, but the main reason I've relisted is because not moved/no consensus would end up with us staying with the status quo. I'm hoping if more people weigh in we might get a consensus to move Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation) to the base title rather than needing another discussion.

August 16, 1962 or August 16, 1964
Two of the bios at Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation) have the same birthday, 2 years apart. And the same photos. Looks like a merge is needed. The 1974 actor is someone else. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:54, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: No move of this article, but move disambiguation page to Faisal Qureshi. After two weeks it appears we have an emerging consensus for this measure. Cúchullain t/ c 16:41, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

Faisal Qureshi (comedian) → Faisal Qureshi – Why this article is moved to Faisal Qureshi? The disambiguation page Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation) exist so this "(comedian)" should be removed. This person is notable and is seen television in Pakistan as he directs and appers in television commercials. Please move this to Faisal Qureshi. Musa Talk  22:08, 27 November 2015 (UTC) --Relisted.

 * Support per nom —Мандичка YO 😜 13:05, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose and Rename Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation) to Faisal Qureshi. There are two Faisal Qureshis with articles, neither of them very long. No evidence either is the primary topic. Plus there is a Faysal Qureshi and transliteration is not exact. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:15, 2 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment Yes, Now I think this discussion should be closed and Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation) should be moved to Faisal Qureshi without a "Requested Move" on the talk page.-- Musa  Talk  14:33, 10 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Support Since this page is now "Faisal Qureshi (director)", i support that it should be moved to Faisal Qureshi which is just a redirect to Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation), i could have created a new request but thought since this is already open so supporting that with a little modification.  Sh eri ff  ( report ) 17:17, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Any particular reason why this Faisal Qureshi should be the primary topic? I see no especial evidence. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:33, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
 * As the only other Faisal Qureshi (anchor) is also known as FQ, so the only one left which has his only name as "Faisal Qureshi" is this Faisal Qureshi plus as per WP:Article titles, it's okay to name one of them with their most common name and others can have their notability in parenthesis next to their name. So the question is why not move him to his WP:COMMONNAME. Also, i don't think (director) is his most notable distinguish-er, so prior move was a premature one as well. He is most notably a comedian more than director.  Sh eri ff  ( report ) 17:41, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
 * No, that's not how it works. If no primary topic can be established then we stick with a disambiguation page. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:49, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
 * This is the primary topic since (director) is not his distinguishing trait, moving him to just his plain name would remove that confusion. Otherwise, we will have move him anyway to (comedian).  Sh eri ff  | report  | 09:53, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
 * No, you misunderstand me. Why is this Faisal Qureshi more important than the other Faisal Qureshi? Neither have very long articles. If neither is overwhelmingly more important then they should both keep a parenthetical disambiguator after their name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:08, 15 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Oppose and Rename Faisal Qureshi (disambiguation) to Faisal Qureshi. As per Necrothesp. Neither appear to be particularly the primary topic, both are new, and have no relevant inbound on-wiki links. While the anchor may AKA FQ, it is not his commonname, if it was that would make this so much simpler, and then use hatnotes. But since they both appear to article name as commonname, we're forced to use a disambiguation page as per WP:TWODABS. Tiggerjay (talk) 16:17, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

Faisal Qureshi (television personality) → Faisal Qureshi (actor) – The sources say that he came to recognition through his acting. 119.160.97.114 (talk) 12:11, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose: He is not just an actor, he works in other areas of television thus television personality describes him better.  King Julien of Wikipedia  | do not try to make a move  | 21:11, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Date of birth
Please can someone who can translate the references check the date of birth? 1984 as in the infobox seems wrong. 1964 as on the disambiguation page and in several unreliable sources sounds more credible but I can't find a RS and a few websites say 1962.
