No indication of notability (certainly nothing supported by good sources) and no significant independent coverage. Merely heading a wrestling organization is not grounds for claiming notability.Mdtemp (talk) 17:43, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep – He is one one of the richest businessmen in Uzbekistan and influential in the sports world. Wrestling is big in Central Asia. He also owns the country's dominant team in soccer, the most popular sport. From the viewpoint of Uzbekistan, seems to be a notable person. – Margin1522 (talk) 12:16, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - Salim Abduvaliev is very influential in Uzbekistan. If you know russian or uzbek, just google his name and you will see. -- Ochilov   (talk)  18:51, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Since secondary coverage does not have to be in English to make someone notable on English Wikipedia.-- TMD   Talk Page.  18:21, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment The article has two references one of which is a wiki (same problem with referencing wikipedia) and the other is an online feature magazine. If the person is that notable there should be far more out there.  Need more and better for WP:GNG to be met.Peter Rehse (talk) 18:41, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Added some references -- Ochilov  (talk)  19:14, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep I found several references that refer to him as a Uzbek crime boss. There's enough coverage to meet WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 19:25, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - User:Mdtemp did you notify article creator? In ictu oculi (talk) 04:41, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
