Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bostan Khan (soldier)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Delete people, keep place. Once it was suggested that Khai Gala be kept, everybody who commented after that agreed, so I'm giving that more weight than the nose-count would indicate. If anybody still thinks Khai Gala should be deleted, no prejudice against renominating that one for a closer look. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:58, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Fails WP:NSOLDIER. Unreliable sources and disruptive creator. Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 02:18, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they are improperly sourced/not notable, and also created by the same disruptive editor. -- Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 02:29, 16 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete all None of these articles give any indication that their subjects are notable. These articles clearly fail to meet the requirements of the general notability guideline. &#8213; Susmuffin Talk 02:47, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete all/speedy delete all per nom. Fails WP:NOTABILITY, WP:NSOLDIER. All are poorly sourced and have dubious significance. R9tgokunks   ⭕  02:55, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete all as per nom and above editors. None meet either WP:GNG or WP:NSOLDIER.  Onel 5969  TT me 12:25, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Unbundle Sadduzai: this is neither an article about a military person, nor is it created by the same user; it is a long-established article about a major Pashtun subgroup. – Uanfala (talk) 13:18, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete all per nomination, except for "Sadduzai," which is evidently about a notable, encyclopaedic subject. It is unfortunate that the disruptive editor has contributed significantly to that article; at least they did not create it. Still, the merits of the subject are not affected by any of this. -The Gnome (talk) 14:12, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment: Per consensus, Sadduzai has been unbundled from this AfD. Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 14:15, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete all as per nom. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 23:28, 16 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Comment article creator blocked and then created a sock, both now CU blocked by me. No comment on IPs. Doug Weller  talk 19:07, 18 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Comment - as noted above, article creator  is now banned from editing permanently. There is also another case of an article created by this user that is up for deletion at Articles for deletion/Sher Khan Bahadur.  R9tgokunks   ⭕  01:53, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment, of the above nominations Khai Gala is a locality/town not a person (like the others), hence the inclusion in geography afd list above, it appears on gmaps here but a gsearch (under this anglicised name) doesn't bring up anything of substance. Coolabahapple (talk) 13:55, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Khaigala Khaigala passes WP:GEOLAND as a populated place - you can easily find articles on some protests which occurred there, though I don't have access to Pakistani sources to see if it's legally recognized. (Update: Found one which says there's a town council there: ) SportingFlyer  talk  05:52, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete (or redirect) all the people. There may be room for one article on the regiment and its role in the 1947 uprising, to which the people could be redirected.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:28, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
