- Delete - I was about to tag it (page seen from the Teahouse). My source assessment roughly matches Spiderone’s. The only difference is that I would not have called thevistek.com "pure promotion", but it is indeed a duplicate of the content in [1] (maybe either of the two is a copyvio of the other, but press-release-through-shady-outlets seems like a better theory). I copied my intended below without modification
because I am too lazyfor transparency.

There are some sources, but I believe none that counts toward notability after close inspection. To start with, [2] and [3] are passing mentions, although the latter does verify the "top Bangladeshi itunes chart for a month" claim. I contend the rest are puff pieces, paid for and controlled by the subject, even though there is no direct mention of paid-for editing in any of those.
I cannot read Bengali, but [8], [9] have the "Asian News" photo, [10] and [11] have the "Jamuna Protidin" photo. WP:BEFORE turned up [12] (which is a copy-paste of the "thevistek" piece, supporting the "press release laundering" theory, although one could be copyvio of the other) as well as yet another puff piece with the same photo. |

There are more references added for prove the person's notability and person is not promotional nor my personal close. Please do what best for wikipedia. But, most of the time some notable person is neglected by the community and who like me try to take forward there are always some resistance. Newspaper never write a person with researches or without knowing a person. But, yes he is underrated. Do whatever best for wikipedia. thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dadu1212 (talk • contribs) (moved from the talk page by TigraanClick here for my talk page ("private" contact) 13:10, 13 January 2022 (UTC))

- anyone who has looked at the articles for deletion long enough knows that is false in the general case, and here we have two articles (this, that) which are supposedly from independent publications but are in fact 100% identical.
- I see you have added three new sources. [13] would be useless from a serious source (it is at the very best an interview) is from a website that is somewhere between a blog hosting service and a PR press (see the "submit news" tab). Similarly, that one comes from a website with a "write for us" form. And the third one is a passing mention.
- @Dadu1212: Please tell us what relationship if any you have with Arfius Al-din, and after that take a look at WP:42 for the kind of sources we want. TigraanClick here for my talk page ("private" contact) 13:24, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
