Delete. The article lacks sufficient context to identify the subject. A book search does not connect the Ismailzai to the Bangash; rather, Ismailzai is described as a division of a Pakistani tribe in Peshawar, as here. Does Ismailzai refer to Samilzai, which is described as one of the main divisions of the Bangash? That's unclear, and the article is too brief to establish this any further. In any case, Ismailzai fails WP:GNG for lack of significant coverage as a sub-clan in Pakistan, if that's what this indeed is about. If it's about a sub-tribe of the Bangash, as is claimed, it fails all notability criteria because no sources actually connect the two. Could be speedily deleted for lack of sufficient context, but it would be helpful if someone versed in these matters could take a look and maybe help resolve the confusion. --Batard0 (talk) 04:22, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
