The result was delete and redirect to Aafia Siddiqui. Redirect to his wife. Deleting before redirect because of possible BLP issues of implying he is involved in a plot without concrete confirmation. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 05:33, 6 June 2018 (UTC)

Clear case of why notability is not inherited. By closely examining the sources available, it is revealed that most, if not all, are dedicated to the man's wife, Aafia Siddiqui, who is indisputably notable. While Khan is passively mentioned, we all know that does not count toward notability, and the apparent cite overkill attempts to compensate for that. Considering this is a BLP on an innocent man whose only significant claim of "notability" is being mixed up with his former spouse, it is entirely inappropriate and contrary to policy to have a seperate article on Khan.

 * Delete - this is a borderline speedy delete and borderline weak delete. Speedy because "might have been involved" in a plot is inappropriate for a lede for a BLP. Weak because there is a lot of reliable sources about aspects of the individual's life. Overall, however, it is pretty clear to me that this is not an encyclopedic subject and the sources do not lend themselves to a NPOV characterization of a person who seems to probably be a fairly anonymous, innocent person with no public profile.

 * Redirect - to the page about his wife as it is plausable that someone might use his name as a search term, but to be honest I would be fine with a delete as well. Inter&#38;anthro (talk) 23:28, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Aafia Siddiqui. Plausible search term, but not independently notable of Siddiqui at present.Icewhiz (talk) 07:23, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Aafia Siddiqui appears reasonable per above. Ifnord (talk) 02:39, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
