Umar Khalid
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

2016 JNU sedition controversy which started on 9th February 2016.

Google news search results before 9th February shows no headline news about this student. The "Umar Khalid" in the news before 9th February is a terrorist named "Umar Khalid" who is not this student.

This article is a perfect example of WP:BLP1E and WP:NOTNEWS.

In previous AFD most editors who voted keep are active in Indian political articles.

The problem is that those who are active in Indian political articles, they will not vote according to WP:NPOV.

Those who talk about geo bias in Wikipedia, Tawana Glenda Brawley is still in the news since 1987, but we don't have any biography article on her. John Jaffar Janardan (talk) 09:37, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep What's the difference between Kim Davis (county clerk) and Umar Khalid? One is an American. One is an Indian. WP:GEOBIAS. Clearly ongoing coverage AusLondonder (talk) 10:54, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Why are you so interested in Kim Davis (county clerk)? Your user page has also mention of Kim Davis (county clerk). Copy Pasted the same comment from previous AFD. Then delete the policy of WP:BLP1E as it is a joke with votes like this. If coverage creates notability then create a biography about Gregory Villemin as he is getting coverage from 1984. 1.39.38.37 (talk) 03:39, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete Kim Davis attracted the attention and support of the Pope, her actions lead to change in the law in Kentucky, and may have been a key factor in the outcome of the 2015 elections in Kentucky. Also to compare an elected county official to a student is a horrible analogy. This article here violates both one event and not news guidelines and so should be deleted.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:48, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:BLP1E. Now Kim Davis (county clerk)  gained international media coverage the single sex marriage issue,arrest,court case ,the support of the Pope and debatable impact on the  2015 elections in Kentucky and Governor Matt Bevin changed the law  relating to marriage certificates.It has a lasting impact hence was kept .While Umar Khalid's arrest is only claim to notability  in the 2016 JNU sedition controversy and there is nothing beyond it.Now in cases of an event only those which passes WP:LASTING or have lasting impact are kept and hence Omar Khalid's arrest has no lasting impact and fails WP:LASTING.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 18:59, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
