The subject doesn't seem to meet notability requirements. The article has existed for a while now but it never seemed to be sufficiently sourced. It's currently completely unsourced and the only source ever cited was a glossary, which is not significant coverage.  Event horizon51  (talk) 14:38, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Subject lacks coverage in reliable sources. Meatsgains (talk) 14:56, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Speedy Delete: Heck, never mind this being an unsourced sub-sub-stub, I'm advocating a G7 for failure to assert a claim of notability. When the entire text of the article is "The Ghallu are a tribe of Pakistan," what does this assert, exactly?  Nha Trang  Allons! 22:46, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. This tribe existed, but I'm not sure it was a recognized or notable caste. I found this study, which implies they are a notable if small group. Bearian (talk) 23:13, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:GNG - Article has changed alot over time. Had 1 source that was insufficient on its own. No other reliable sources. As such it fails WP:GNG. -- Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 14:44, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Sources:  There is, or, at least, was in 1858 a village in the Sindh called Ghallu (an old book popped up when I searched on   Sindh  + Ghallu.  There are contemporary individuals in Pakistan with Ghallu as a surname.  And Bearian's study establishes that a group of genetics researchers found a group calling itself Ghallu in the Sindh. This, however, is all.  And All that it establishes is that such a group of people exists, quite probably as a clan of some sort, but nothing indicates that this group of people is notable.  Merely we see indications that it exists. Delete as non-notable group.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:45, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as nothing minimally convincing, nothing at all actually suggesting better. SwisterTwister   talk  22:50, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
