 * Keep He has notability as a Pakistani TV producer of 2 recent and popular TV shows from 2014 and 2016. He himself may not have won awards for his individual work as a producer, nevertheless he still remains a recognized TV producer of popular TV shows. I have just replaced 2 non-working links on his Wikipedia article. He had news coverage as a TV producer both on IMDb and the Dawn (newspaper)...Ngrewal1 (talk) 16:46, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
 * You need to provide RS which can verify your claims. --Saqib (talk) 18:53, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Saqib, my impression is that IMDb is an RS for TV personalities ! Yes, there are several people with Tariq Shah names listed on IMDb. I had to select Tariq Shah No. (V) (producer) to get to his page on IMDb. All I am saying is that he is a known producer of popular TV Series in Pakistan regardless of whether he has won any awards or not. Also I have just added another RS (The Express Tribune newspaper) besides Dawn newspaper reference. If it's still not enough, let Wikipedia staff delete the article. It's only one article among many.Ngrewal1 (talk) 22:50, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
 * IMDb is not a RS. I have removed Dawn reference because I don't see it mention the subject. --Saqib (talk) 06:43, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
 * That's fine, Saqib. Ngrewal1 (talk) 19:59, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
