Aamir Ali Sultan

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It is asserted in this article that Mr Aamir Ali Sultan is a "well known playback singer". The references - such as they are - do not support this assertion.


 * reference 1 is an About.me website, one that anyone can write about an autobiography without any editorial oversight.
 * reference 2 is a ReverbNation website, one that anyone can write about an autobiography without any editorial oversight.
 * reference 3 is a link to the Gaana.com website, which apparently provides streaming of music of any of its subscribers.
 * [http://... auddi-aamir-ali-sultan.html reference 4] appears to be a link to a website that might contain music files of questionable copyright status.
 * reference 5 is simply a YouTube video. Anyone can post a YouTube video.
 * reference 6 is about an iTunes audio file. I don't know anything about iTunes.
 * reference 7 is again simply a YouTube video.
 * [http://... ad-757897s/Ye-Hindustan-Aamir-Ali-Sultan.html reference 8] appears to be a link to a website that might contain music files of questionable copyright status. Shirt58 (talk) 13:25, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete per nomination. I had originally nominated it for speedy deletion, but thanks to the nominator for spelling out the problems in such detail. I can find nothing online in WP:RS in English to suggest that he meets the guidelines for WP:BIO or WP:CREATIVE. Wikishovel (talk) 14:02, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sam Walton (talk) 17:56, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: As documented above, the given references are poor. My searches, including the tailored Wikiproject India search, are not finding better. Fails WP:MUSICBIO, WP:BASIC. AllyD (talk) 18:32, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
