Proposed deletion of Arif Khan(politician)


The article Arif Khan(politician) has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Karl 334  ☞ TALK to ME ☜  17:48, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I've added in a new source that links to a list of all of the current electoral nominees for the next Alberta election and Arif Khan is listed in that article. Jasenator (talk) 18:42, 25 June 2011 (UTC)


 * You should be aware that there is a long-standing consensus that mere candidacy (even if nominated by a major party) does not constitute notability, and that if the only coverage of a candidate is due to their candidacy, and not to any notability outside of their run for office, they are regarded as not notable. (My newest U.S. Senator, for example, was hopelessly non-notable until he became a Senator.) -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  12:49, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
