Won some local competitions and a hallowed name of Mr. Pakistan at South Asian Bodybuilding Championship, which is equally non-notable.Not even professionally recognized.Most of sources are spammy. ~ Winged BladesGodric 05:56, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete holds non-notable titles Mr. Karachi, Mr. Sindh.. Subject is not something that would be expected to have an article on English Wikipedia just because he received some passing press mentions. Some of the news pieces cited in this BLP does not even mention the subject. IMO, we should not use IMAGES as a source on our BLPs because they are more like tabloid journalism. --Saqib (talk) 06:48, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep there are more than one reliable sources within the article.Jogi Asad Rajpar, Talk to me 21:39, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Why don't you run some sort of bot, which generates a strong keep or keep or delete !vote, based on the cardinality of the set of references existent in the article and on the number of G-Hits, retrieved by the subject, before you get topic-banned?!~ Winged BladesGodric 06:26, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • How could you justify your such comments 'to run a bot which generates vote'?, and what are proofs of allegations for which you saying topic ban. Jogi Asad Rajpar, Talk to me 07:24, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Week Keep, he is Mr. Pakistan, which is highest level of Bodybuilding competition held in Pakistan. Mr. Pakistan itself gets coverage [1], [2]. So, Mr Pakistan is significant event. He is profiled in [3] and [4]. So reliability is not an issue. --Spasage (talk) 13:42, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I would not cite coverage by IMAGES to establish the notability on AfDs. And by the way, that is not in-depth coverage. --Saqib (talk) 13:59, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Images is magazine published by Dawn Media group. It is credible and reliable. He was featured under Celebrity section. --Spasage (talk) 15:56, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No. You are wrong. Images is not a magazine. It was used to be but no longer. Now it's more like a tabloid website doing some yellow journalism and clickbait. See here the quality of work Image producing. Fyi, EOS and ICON has replaced Images as Dawn's in paper magazine now, early last yr. --Saqib (talk) 17:21, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Even if we drop this reference, what about other one.--Spasage (talk) 20:20, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I guess we need at-least 2 solid references to ascertain the N. --Saqib (talk) 05:13, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There are two reference. One you deem less solid. --Spasage (talk) 13:26, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: While it may be possible to close this based on the present discussion, I would prefer to see more discussion about whether the titles in question confer notability by themselves.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Vanamonde (talk) 09:51, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete winning non-notable competitions does not impart notability and lacks in-depth, non-trivial support. GSS (talk|c|em) 10:27, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
