Habib Ibrahim Rahimtoola

A possibly notable person, but the article doesn't explain at all who he is, or why he is notable, apart from a long list of nominations and degrees. Contains no prose or sources. — Twinzor Say hi! - Do I suck or rock? 11:10, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Addition: This is also possibly a COI violation, as the article was created by User:Rahimtoola, who has no other contributions in the English Wiki (altough it's not written by the subject, him being deceased). — Twinzor Say hi! - Do I suck or rock? 11:13, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Needs to be converted into prose, but the subject IS notable, as the former Governor of Sindh and Governor of Punjab (Pakistan), as well as Pakistan's first High Commissioner to the UK. Some biographical info on him here, on the website of Pakistan's postal service, from when they issued a stamp of him. -12.68.8.18 (talk) 16:05, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep, although it needs a complete rewrite and sourcing. Being a High Commissioner to the UK and a governor of multiple Pakistani provinces is certainly notable.   Little Red Riding Hood  talk  22:40, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Provincial governor and federal minister posts fly way over the bar for WP:POLITICIAN. Phil Bridger (talk) 21:04, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
