Previous AfD is Articles for deletion/Farman Nawaz; I do not have access to the previous version of the article, so I am not sure if G4 applies (if it applies, speedy delete and close). Nonetheless, same reason as before, subject writes many articles for small newspapers, but non-notable (no coverage). Esquivalience  t 16:38, 5 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Hi. I am Snehahurrian. Farman Nawaz has written articles for Pakistani newspapers The Frontier Post, Statesman, DAWN (newspaper), Express Tribune, and Daily Times, Afghani newspaper The Daily Outlook Afghanistan is the only English newspaper published from Kabul. Farman Nawaz is writing for Outlook Afghanistan since 2009. Similarly Global Times China is stateowned newspapers of China. it is the sister publication of peoples daily. Farman Nawaz has written round about 10 articles for the opinion page of Global Times China. Direct links of his articles can be provided if required.

Normally it is difficult to provide information for notability and other aspects of journalists. I have also created other pages about journalists and columnists. like

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gul_Nokhaiz_Akhtar

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mujahid_Hussain

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hussain_Ali_Yasa

very little information were provided for these pages. But for the page Farman Nawaz Khan I have provided several links and references. I think its coverage is better than the other pages of journalists I have created. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snehahurrain (talk • contribs) 16:55, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete, the original notability issues have not been addressed. No third-party coverage beyond a few quotes that report his opinions but do not discuss Naawaz at all. Huon (talk) 17:07, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I was asked to review the sources provided in the article. I have done so; my opinion remains unchanged. Huon (talk) 20:26, 10 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete, fails GNG —OluwaCurtis »» (talk to me) 16:54, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete, per WP:GNG, WP:BIO and per nom. Looking at the other pages linked, one is also at AfD for similar reasons. One has only one source and the other has a good chunk of it copied and pasted from his personal blog and also only one source aside from his personal blog. Personally I think all of these need to be either deleted or have reliable sources added and the improperly sourced content removed. Wikipedia is not a webhost for resumes/profiles.

 * Keep, hopfuly the above links will solve the notability issue. Sneha Hurrain (talk) 08:32, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
