 * Keep This place is populated and big village in District Tank District OR TANK in NWFP,also police station Mullazai is also famous in the disrtict for its jurisdiction over huge area, legally-recognized places,places are also known for its notable, even if the population is very low. Mullazai has population over 10,000 people.This village is the gate-way to the FR region (Federally Administered Area). As this location/village is recognized, as shown by the reference in the article, it is entitled to a stay here.Lt Col Sarfaraz Khan Marwat is the icon of this area,known for his military career during second world war and also for his political and community services for his people. He remained a member of Gen. Zia-ul-Haq Majlis-e-shoora (Cabinet)in 1984.That is the point of Wikipedia. Thanks
 * Delete The article must be deleted as it fails the Wikipedia's notability. It is about very small village and a minor clan, poppulated by hardly 800 people. In Pakistan, one of the most poppulated countries of the world, there are hundred thousands of villages like it. Existence of this article will lead creation of tens of thousand of articles like such. The article seems to be created in a tussle with Marwat, the tribe of people of Mullazai just to fame-up Sarfaraz Khan Marwat, an article which is deleted three times. The article is even not refered, linked or provided any citation. The article must be delete to prevent creation of hundred thousands of articles about such small villages / towns. --Raheela Chaudhry (talk) 11:58, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep – As it states in Notability (geography); “…Populated, legally-recognized places are, by a very large consensus, considered notable, even if the population is very low.” As this location/village is recognized, as shown by the reference in the article, it is entitled to a piece here.  With regards to the worry that we will have hundred of thousands of similar articles, I hope so.  That is the point of Wikipedia.  Thanks.  ShoesssS Talk 13:19, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep, as Shoes says, villages do not need to be notable over and on top of being a village, and there's no harm in having hundreds of thousands of articles about villages. With the people from this clan it is of course a different story entirely. I have cleaned up a little and removed the rather meaningless list of public servants; what remains I believe can stay. --Pgallert (talk) 13:35, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Shoesss. Edward321 (talk) 14:00, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per Shoesss, meets notability standards  GB fan  talk 14:36, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * The article has no reference and links even if it is considered notable which it isn't. the article is just to fame-up sarfaraz Khan marwat. There is not even a single paragraph written in the article without praising or nominating him. As Shoes says, the articl may have ben legally-recognised but it is not this village is recognised every village here in Pakistan is legally recognised. I agree that there could be even millions of articles but the case stand is notaility and reference(s). The article is based on personalism and have been created in tussle with Marwat, the main clan of this area. The article, without being created and designed nicely (even copied Marwat's code) has nothing to match Wiki's policies. Raheela Chaudhry (talk) 16:00, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - Hello Raheela Chaudhry. I agree, the article should be about the village and not an individual.  If you note, I did eliminate references to the individual in question, other than in the Notable Individual section.  Hope this helps.  Thanks ShoesssS Talk 17:35, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. All verifiable, currently inhabited settlements are automatically notable enough for their own article, regardless of population or the number of other settlements of the same status in any given area. Thryduulf (talk) 20:59, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * And where it is verifiable? The links and sources provided aren't even hinting what is said or claimed. Not even about the place. I will respect the decission of closing admn regarding the article, no matter whatsoever it is. But what about un-verified claims? The article, being un refered and un-linked for any citatins be delete respectively. Raheela Chaudhry (talk) 07:01, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete In my 'humble' opinion the article be renamed as Sarfaraz Khan Marwat. The original version of the aticle, which was there before the edits by ShoesssS Talk after its nomination, shows that it is created by someone from the family of Sarfaraz Khan Marwat, just to make him somewhat notable in support of thrice deleted Sarfaraz Khan Marwat. Like a user has mentioned earlier, the 3/4th of the article is word of mouth and is lacking references. WikipedianBug (talk) 07:04, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
