The result was soft delete. Since participation was minimal and it doesn't appear that anyone engaged to look for foreign-language sources, but also no one specifically favored keeping, I'm treating this one as a soft deletion. WP:REFUND applies. RL0919 (talk) 21:22, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

An article about a "noted poet of the Urdu language". However, a quick search online doesn't come up with any sources in English. The article only links to a results page on worldcat, from which it's apparent that there are four publications by him, each held by at most a dozen libraries. This user review mentions an award (one that I haven't been able to verify). It's quite possible there might be more substantial sources in Urdu. – Uanfala (talk) 21:08, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment. Please note no English sources being available is not a criteria for deletion per WP:NOENG, which states "Citations to non-English reliable sources are allowed on the English Wikipedia."--Kbabej (talk) 17:17, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
