Shahe Ali

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Boxing promoter with no significant independent coverage. Mentions in articles by organizations he's associated are not independent.Mdtemp (talk) 16:12, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete As per nominator.   Only one of the two references has a mention of him and that was his opinion about one organization joining another.  Nothing supports him being a Promotor.Peter Rehse (talk) 17:36, 20 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Mr. Shahe Ali is a Boxing promoter and member of the World Boxing Association, the World Boxing Organization, the International Boxing Federation and the Pan Asian Boxing Association. There are many coverage in US media and India as well, the same can be checked and verified on their respective websites or through sending emails.
 * He is the president of Indian Professional Boxing Association. His interview about professional boxing in India has been published on fightnews.com and same can be read through the link by clicking at http://www.fightnews.com/Boxing/wbo-poised-to-make-moves-in-india-in-2016-311795.

 * Delete My search didn't turn up what I consider to be significant independent coverage from reliable sources that would meet WP:GNG. None of the above comments provide any such sources.  Being a fight promoter does not guarantee notability nor is being tied to various boxing organizations (which are the sources for the articles mentioning him). Papaursa (talk) 03:08, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as still questionable for solid independent notability. SwisterTwister   talk  07:28, 25 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep I believe there are enough sources and relevant information about the article and I personally feel that we should consider it and do not delete. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fabiha Aslam (talk • contribs) 11:47, 25 January 2016‎ — Fabiha Aslam (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Keep – It seems to me that Shahe Ali is sufficiently notable. Besides that, the article is interesting, adequately written, and contains several reliable sources. I also think it could be improved. George M. Mathews (talk) 12:37, 25 January 2016 (UTC) — George M. Mathews (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Keep This Article for deletion is a mistake! Many good articles started their Wikilife in rudimentary form, and I hope this article is kept and can grow. As is, I found this article interesting and I enjoyed it. Reviewing the links provided above, I believe that this subject has received satisfactory coverage from reliable third party publications. --Singhaniasanjay (talk) 12:53, 25 January 2016 (UTC) — Singhaniasanjay (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Keep As this article is very new and has potential. It is off to a good start. Fabiha Aslam (talk) 13:09, 25 January 2016 (UTC) Duplicate !vote struck. BC108 (talk) 13:20, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete if he promotes boxing bills for all of these organisations, why is there no record of him on BoxRec? --Donniediamond (talk) 13:23, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - I cannot locate any significant coverage in reliable sources to meet WP:GNG; all sources I have found are either directly linked to Mr. Ali (e.g. LinkedIn or Facebook pages), are closely linked to Mr. Ali (e.g. boxing organizations), or are not independently reliable (e.g. YouTube). — Jkudlick • t • c • s 13:44, 25 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep - Dear Donnie Diamond, he just entered into boxing and started organizing professional boxing matches. Record will be updated soon on BoxRec.com Julia Lopez Merchant (talk) 13:59, 25 January 2016 (UTC) — Julia Lopez Merchant (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Delete. If the article is to be believed the subject should be easy to find in reliable sources but like I just can't find them. The large number of SPAs here (making classic non arguments) and the repeated vandalism of this page make me think something greater is afoot. But, at the very least, notability is not shown.
