Sadia Imam

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Not notable. The only verifiable source is one interview in a magazine of doubtful significance. A PROD was contested with the edit summary "contest prod - subject appears to be a notable actress (see http://news.google.com/archivesearch?um=1&ned=us&hl=en&q=%22Sadia+Imam%22&cf=all for example) - flag article issues, will properly source ASAP". However, the google link given provides all of 11 hits, most of which make only incidental passing mentions of Sadia Imam, and none of them constitutes substantial coverage. The editor who contested the PROD never came back to "properly source", and my attempts to do so have failed to turn up anything suitable. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:38, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. According to this interview (also here), she won a Lux Best Actress Award, which is Pakistan's Oscar/Emmy. (This may be the same award or a different one?) That's a clear WP:ENTERTAINER pass. We should also consider systemic bias issues. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 03:35, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Per the user above. The list of telefilms in which she has played a role also suggests notability. Mar4d (talk) 06:41, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep To politely disagree with the nominator, and while Mag4You does not seem reliable (though I do not believe they invented their interview of the actress), Daily Times, Dawn Media, and The Nation are not of "doubtful" reliability, and though their format is not exactly Western, we would certainly expect that The Pakistani would be a reasonable souce for at least verifying acting information about a Pakistani actress. Notable to Pakistan should be notable enough for en.Wikipedia.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 04:05, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
