Sultan Choudhury

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

AfD: Nominated for deletion; The person is clearly not notable for this article to remain and is not active in the sector claimed. The tone of the statement released by the company that sacked him recently, raise many concerns and questions, its meaning is very clear in financial services. There is a clear lack of objectivity in the article e.g. Career and Early Life. The quoted sources for such sections are very poor and not independent or known well, as they could be paid for to provide a feature on the person. What is the relation of pilgrimage here, it is a bit dramatic rather than objective facts. Also there is not an independent reliable source about his involvement in advisory groups to government and other organisations. It is very bold claim without a reliable independent proof to support it. This is not in accordance with Wiki's policies. This article should be seriously considered for deletion as it violates various Wiki's criteria. It takes just a few thorough objective and independent checks to conclude that this article should be deleted.  Created at 13:43, 30 July 2019‎ by (contributions)

 * Comment: For what it's worth, the editor who submitted this article to AfD has been indef'd as a sock puppet. BubbaJoe123456 (talk) 17:24, 30 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep Choudhury is one of the founders and, until recently, the CEO, of Al Rayan Bank, the first Islamic bank to be established outside of the traditionally Muslim countries. This alone is significant enough to merit inclusion. Note that the AFD nomination appears not to have been made in good faith, as the editor who nominated this article made several controversial edits to the article, with equally controversial edit summaries.

 * Keep. Agree with the above. Not a good faith nomination. Edit summary before virtual blanking of article: "He was sacked as a CEO of Al Rayan Bank due to serious issues, which was clear from the statement released by the bank employed him (see reference No. 1), the bank removed any connection with him anywherand is no longer active or has any notable activities that may give merits for keeping this article. Thus, we strongly recommend deletion of this article." This strongly suggests that the nominator, who is now blocked, is connected to the bank and they want the article removed from WP. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:20, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Clearly not a good faith nomination, more a twisting of the knife. If kept, what appears to be copyvio from the Zakat charity website ought to be dealt with. -Roxy, the dog . wooF 10:07, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
