This article is about Indian actor Iqbal Azad. He has done significant roles in television shows which you can see in the references of this page. And He is also create a large fanbase by doing serials like Nadaniyaan, Tedi Medi Family and Bepannah etc. That's why it meets WP:ENT. If you don't believe you can see references of this page Iqbal Azad. And by these points, this page can't be deleted. Kaitudi (talk) 14:04, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, for WP:CANVASS. I really did not want to do that. This page should not be deleted on the basis of my above comment which meets WP:ENT. Kaitudi (talk) 14:12, 11 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment: your constant posting here makes you look like you have an WP:OWN issue and is not helping this discussion. The more you keep posting entreaties here, the greater the chances this will get deleted. You need to just make your point once and let others assess the article and make their own recommendations. - Ahunt (talk) 14:20, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep as passes criteria 1 of WP:NACTOR of having multiple significant roles in notable productions. He has two main cast roles in national Indian television series and a recurring role in another as confirmed by reliable sources so he deserves a Wikipedia article in my view. Just to note that this article is on my watchlist so I would have commented here regardless of canvassing issues, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 18:15, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per NACTOR, as Atlantic306 says. It does seem that Kaitudi was too assertive in defense of this page, but their point is a good one — the nominator has given no real rationale for deletion here. There are 16 sources on the article. Why are they not good enough? The six-word nomination statement offers no explanation. — Toughpigs (talk) 02:57, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Spartaz Humbug! 07:34, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: Of the sources cited on the page, almost all of them are short articles announcing/in reference to casting decisions, and may be considered trivial coverage per WP:BASIC. Perhaps there is more substantial and in-depth coverage by non-English language sources that could be added to establish notability? --17jiangz1 (talk) 11:27, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
 * In total the short dedicated articles amount to substantial coverage that proves criteria 1 of WP:NACTOR is passed, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 20:31, 19 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep per Atlantic306. Creator of the article needs to read Wikipedia policies before responding to AfDs. --Micky (talk) 17:35, 20 June 2020 (UTC) Blocked sockpuppet Malcolmxl5 (talk) 03:27, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
