 * Delete. I can't seem to find this term used in reliable sources. Cited book is published by Xlibris (self-publishing). Could be a hoax or just a bad piece of research, mispronouncing another term. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  06:01, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment – In case the tribe fails notability, Magsi can be kept as a surname list article, as there are notable people with surname Magsi - for details, see this revision of Magsi. There is no primary topic here. So, need to add the tag "(surname)", i.e., WP:APOTITLE is not applicable. - NitinMlk (talk) 17:50, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete, pending evidence of non-trivial coverage from reliable publications. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 19:51, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, see "Former twice-elected Balochistan chief minister and head of Baloch Magsi tribe, Nawab Zulfikar Ali Magasi, was appointed as the governor of Balochistan by former President Pervez Musharraf two weeks after Magsi' s overwhelming victory on" (https://books.google.com/books?id=2-3QcOx2hogC&pg=PA123), "Mir Yusuf Ali Magsi (soon to become the Sardar of the Magsi tribe in 1931)" (https://books.google.com/books?id=0b0epgzkrz8C&pg=PA56), "He was supported by the powerful Magsi tribe of Kachchi. The matter was settled" (https://books.google.com/books?id=3fxYAAAAQBAJ&pg=PT194) etc. --Soman (talk) 00:39, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
