M. Dawood Khan

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No indication of notability. The sources mention Khan only in passing, or not at all. The tone is promotional, the content not based on what the sources report about Khan. Huon (talk) 01:41, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep I don’t see why he is not a notable personality as you say he isn’t. He has been mention in BBC, Financial Times, Times of London & Hindustan Times to name a few international sources, not to mention almost all of Pakistan’s local News Papers and TV Channels have written about him / his company Prime Transport Limited which he owns 100%. I am not promoting him but stating the facts, three consecutive Prime Ministers of Pakistan have either favored or opposed him.  There have been debates on his project and him in National Assembly (Lower House of Representatives) and Senate (Upper Hose), what else will make a man notable then his own countries Parliamentarians discussing about him.  I have stated just a brief of a long list of articles and discussions that have gone on and on about him and his project. Which I intend to add on in coming days, I say it should stay on and not be deleted as I have much more articles backup to prove my stance. Naeem.ptl (talk) 16:17, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

 * While the article could be improved, the person is clearly notable, as he has been criticized by the opposition party in the National assembly, so Keep. Martinogk (talk) 01:04, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Why the page should be deleted ??? Other lesser notable personality have articles on Wikipedia and Khan has been discussed numerous times in National Assembly & Senate which is backed by number of News Articles.Naeem.ptl (talk) 12:37, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete sources are either forum boards or "Khan said..." name drops/mentions. Additionally, these sources are stacked, forming a bit of CITEKILL in places, and leaving much of the page unsourced. Primefac (talk) 17:55, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete because wp:BIO1E - Basically, the entire article hinges on reports that his company got the contract to build London-type cabs. That's not enough to hang an article on. Also, much of the article is unsourced and some of the language is promotional. LaMona (talk) 20:08, 1 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep All articles in the reference are from independent sources on which Khan has no control, all are sourced but one "International News Network” of which I am trying to find the proper link and should have it linked soon, for rest all 14 references are fully back by independent source. Additionally its not a contract given to his company, it’s a system of transport that is initiated by Khan in whole of the country. Naeem.ptl (talk) 11:53, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
 * , I have struck your second !vote. You are welcome to comment further on this discussion, but continued "keeps" will do nothing. Primefac (talk) 14:07, 2 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - based solely on guidelines, searches turn up nothing which meets notability criteria.  Onel 5969  TT me 20:55, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
