 * Delete it is high time that Wikipedia stopped being an IMDb mirror. The fact that such an undersourced article has existed for almost 14 years is distressing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:10, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Draftify Have good amount of reliable sources available online. Someone have to revamp the article. Drat8sub (talk) 00:27, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: I certainly think this article can be saved. I am going through the sources now and looking to find the best ones for the purposes of WP:GNG. I will post them shortly. Dflaw4 (talk) 07:08, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. It is high time that sanity return to AFD decisionmaking. The actor is apparently best known for a steady role in Eastenders in the 1980s, when coverage in "reliable sources on the Internet" was less than scarce. even though coverage (in print) was intense if not obsessive, But, hey, the new standard for AFD seems to be "If it takes even a little bit of effort, it isn't worth finding it." Of course, it's not like the very first page of the GBooks search results would turn up a Sight and Sound review saying "Tanveer Ghani. easily the best of the male cast, creates British cinema's first authentic vindaloo and lager lout", which, of course, doesn't count as coverage because it's unreasonable to expect editors to look for print sources, even for actors whose career began in the 1980s. Or to check out the many reviews of a notable film like Viceroy's House which are readily found in GNews search results. Slothful nominations and support for them, as displayed here, discredit Wikipedia as an encyclopedia. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.
