Franchisee of Toni& Guy in North Pakistan. Refs prove that he exists but very little more. Should we list all franchisees of all such business ? - I think not . Not in any sense notable. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 23:35, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep He's certainly attracted some attention and from what I can see, seems to have some notability in Pakistan. I was dithering over sources such as an article in what seems to be a relatively major Pakistani online fashion magazine, an interview from the Express Tribune, reposted on a Pakistani news webzine; a slightly (but typically) gushy, press-releasey thing which still explained what he's done for Toni & Guy and why he's drawing attention., and then I came across this multi-page spread on Qureshi - pages 10 to 16- pretty significant coverage, and with all the other stuff, I think it comes together to demonstrate sufficient general notability. Then I found that he's also included on a Pakistani Power 100 list here - although I can't find his individual bio among those included in the PDF file, it's still worth noting that he made the list. Also, despite the FUBAR News Archive search, he still has a more-than-passing appearance in this recent news article for the International New York Times - It does seem he is a key player in his field. So yes, based on what I found while searching, I feel he is worth keeping. Mabalu (talk) 12:32, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep From looking around the articles pressented above I must say he does have notability in Pakistan. The article itself is not badly wroten even if some more reffs could be added just to explain better who this person is for us who are not home when it comes to Pakistani hairdressers.Stepojevac (talk) 19:24, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
