Re-submitting for deletion discussion as the previous discussion received no contributions whatsoever. Rationale: does not satisfy WP:BIO. Google, with a total of 15 (!) search results, does not point to any mentions in independent sources. The article text also does not offer anything that would justify keeping the article either. Additionally, the main contributor is likely to have a conflict of interest (same surname). kashmiri TALK  18:43, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

'Weak Delete'. I assume most of the references are in Urdu and proper search need to be done in Urdu. So, delete, unless there are Urdu speakers that may provide proper references. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 18:31, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Comment. Could someone with access to deleted content check to see whether this is a variant of the article deleted at Articles for deletion/Abul Fazl Syed Mahmood Quadri less than a month ago. Online mirrors suggest that it is. Otherwise, I'm not comfortable deleting an article merely because the available sourcing isn't English-language.

 * Delete for now at least until a better informative and better sourced article can be made. SwisterTwister   talk  06:18, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete based on consensus to delete Abul Fazl Syed Mahmoud Quadri.-- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 23:39, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt. It looks like a new article on the same subject rather than a copy of the deleted one, but I see no reason for a different outcome, and recreation after only a month suggests that whoever is pushing this article here is unwilling to live with the consensus. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:53, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment: To be fair, I don't see any recreation efforts, the article dates back to 2010. Regards, kashmiri  TALK  12:10, 6 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete Other than relatives writing about him, and alumni blubs, I don't see any coverage. --Bejnar (talk) 06:13, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
