Tariq Chow

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Promotional. Sourced to profiles in organizations he's associated with and to rather brief coverage in more reliable sources. BEFORE does not bring up much else. Icewhiz (talk) 12:56, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete He has a unique name, but searches are coming up almost empty. I got exactly 2 hits in a Proquest news archive search. one was in The National (Abu Dhabi), "Inspired by Islam", a sort of ethno-religous cheer-leading article mentioning him as one of a group of Muslim filmmakers. The sole additional hit was not on him, but on a juxtaposition of Tariq and the name of a street in Malasia where an outdoor market is held ("supply is erratic," said Tariq. Chow Kit (street market) ..."). Filmmakers of any  notability at all turn up in such a search.  No notability found.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:44, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Searched "Tariq Chowdhury". This produced the 2010 CNN blog post mentioning him that is already on the page, a brief quote in a 2011 Evening Standard article about a beloved venue for art films that was closing,    and the fact that he probably changed his name because there are a few other people named "Tariq Chowdhury."  Only 14 hits altogether, the other 12 were not about him.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:20, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
