No level of notability, only sources are youtube channels. Zippybonzo &#124; talk 16:37, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Journalism and Pakistan. Shellwood (talk) 16:51, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment Sources definitely fail WP:RS however the subject of the article has 2.94 million subscribers on Youtube. I would think that this generally points towards passing WP:N. As the article stands, I would lean towards deletion but I would likely keep for a WP:HEY.  GoldMiner24 Talk 17:07, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Followers, likes, watches, subs are a bad measure of notability because there is no standard (not in terms of Wikipedia, but in general) for them - it is well documented that all of these can also be bought. We rely on significant, independent coverage in reliable sources. Wikipedia isn't a stat book for how many people watched a YT video. PRAXIDICAE💕  17:16, 21 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Comment Have found and added at least one independent source tubefilter for him. There is another article FBR serves notice on journalist Imran Riaz Khan for income tax audit about his income tax issues. Insight 3 (talk) 17:44, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep –  qualifies WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO and WP:JOURNALIST.

 * Comment –  I've ton of references opened in other tabs, showing him qualifying WP:JOURNALISTS, WP:ANYBIO, WB:BASIC and even WP:GNG. Already added maybe 15 refs, but if I'll add more it'll look nothing less than refbombing (as it already kinda looks). Radioactive  (talk) 05:21, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
 * KEEP Article can be much improved due to Radioactive 's efforts and above reliable sources he located. Definitely worth keeping! Ngrewal1 (talk) 17:35, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete this is complete spam, the sources above aren't reliable sources and a laughably bad attempt to keep spam. PRAXIDICAE💕  17:43, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd just like to note for the closer that many of these keeps are without basis - the sources above are 1E or unreliable. PRAXIDICAE🌈 19:53, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
