 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails our notability criteria. Sources are a gossip column, one of our articles that mentions his father, one which is basically comprised of quotes from him and 'Popbluster' which speculates on what he might be doing in the future. His "MBA" and "Doctorate" are from unaccredited institutions. Finally, this is created by a self-acknowledged freelancer and given the other articles created by the editor (and deleted) this seems to be another example of paid editing.

 * Delete Paid editing or not, there is no evidence of notability, and this article, like others created by the same editor, clearly exists essentially to promote the career of the person who is its subject. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:06, 29 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete Does not meet the notability standard for musicians or the GNG. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 14:15, 29 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete One press release is never enough to satisfy WP:NMUSIC, NN. hmssolent \You rang? ship's log 14:43, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails notability, veiled advert. Full disclosure, I originally patrolled this page and had nominated it for CSD and added maintenance tags, seems as if many of the maintenance tags were preemptively removed. Sorry for not keeping a better eye on it. Sulfurboy (talk) 17:45, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Information: I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ACut-and-paste-move_repair_holding_pen&diff=579323317&oldid=579278647 requested] that the early history of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Atif Ali Khan be merged into Ali Khan Atif Ali Khan for attribution purposes. The original creator of the page was a non-logged-in editor.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  18:49, 29 October 2013 (UTC) Corrected per JamesBWatson's note below. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  16:58, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
 * That should say Atif Ali Khan, not Ali Khan. However, the history merge has been done. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:30, 30 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete Information on his page is incorrect and with no valid proof. He has again created on freelancing websites to save this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.178.100.18 (talk) 11:47, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
