Seriously, Omar Michael Jackson Bhatti? Largely unreferenced, sources given only have trivial and brief mentions of the subject... Really does not meet WP:GNG... As an alternative to a delete, maybe a redirect to Wacko Jacko page? Bonkers The Clown (talk) 13:17, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Weak keep seems a little far fetched... but with the fascination around Michael Jackson and the potential paternity link, there might be a reliable article to be written here. At the very least, seems like something that could be merged into an article about MJ or his family. Vcessayist (talk) 00:44, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete — I'm not finding coverage that is squarely reliable and substantially about this person. The Mail and ABC cover the same WP:1E of little to no enduring significance, and which is at least equally centered around Michael and/or Joe. More clearly tabloid coverage here indicates a probable lack of lasting coverage. See WP:NOTNEWSPAPER at 2 and 3; and WP:CRYSTALBALL at 5. Due weight considered, this subject probably wouldn't eke out a mention in either Michael or Joe's articles, especially supported by rather tabloid-esque coverage. So a redirect wouldn't be helpful. If this article is somehow kept, it should be moved to "Omar Bhatti" or "Omer Bhatti." JFHJr (㊟) 05:54, 9 October 2012‎ (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:MUSIC and WP:ENTERTAINER.  This kid, who was one of Michael Jacksons, ehr, "special friends," is now pretending to be Jackson's son in order to launch a music career of his own.  There is no reason why Wikipedia should be a party to this WP:ADVERT and WP:HOAX. Qworty (talk) 09:41, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - While this article is way below WP's quality standards, this guy is clearly notable in Norway and has received significant coverage for his "relationship" with MJ. I belive the article passes WP:GNG, but I'll look for sources one of the next day. Mentoz86 (talk) 18:05, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. We previously deleted an article about this same person at Articles for deletion/Omer Bhatti three years ago. Since then Bhatti has not sought any kind of paternity claim against the Michael Jackson estate, nor has he retracted his denial of being Michael's son. This seems to be pretty strong evidence that he is not Michael's son, given that if he were Michael's son, he would have been eligible to inherit millions of dollars by winning a paternity claim against the estate. If he really does have a career as a rapper, he might become notable enough for a Wikipedia article in his own right under WP:MUSIC. But all of the content about his rap career is unsourced so far. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:00, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Since this was previously deleted, it should be speedily deleted now, as the recreation of a previously deleted page. Qworty (talk) 19:22, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Not necessarily, if he actually has a notable musical career now. But I don't know whether that is the case. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 00:49, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - He has not gotten any more coverage in the last three years ago, and when the article was deleted back then despite his "relationship" to Michael Jackson it should be deleted now too, as his career as an artist is really not notable. --Mentoz86 (talk) 09:14, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
