Articles for deletion/Sher Khan (soldier)

As far as I can see this is the same person, with the same claims to notability, and the article is with the same level of sourcing quality as the one deleted in January. The article has been repeatedly recreated at various titles, and I'm bringing this up here only because the last G4 was declined. Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sher Khan (soldier) for possible clues about notability. – Uanfala (talk) 23:00, 15 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Just like before.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 23:09, 15 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete/speedy delete. This is a recreation of a page that was deleted at AfD, then recreated and speedily deleted. Will be messaging admin that declined CSD. We need to salt this. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 23:28, 15 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete/speedy delete - User recreated a deleted article and this user is notorious for disruptions. R9tgokunks ⭕ 01:43, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm amazed they haven't been blocked yet. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 01:46, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Etzedek24:, As am I, they seem to have committed every offense at least once; copyvio, vandalism (whether intentional or not), removing maintenance templates, adding OR, adding dubious sources, editing archives, etc.

I think we should also take a look at these other articles created by the user for deletion.(Bostan Khan (soldier), Hussain Khan, Sadduzai, Khai Gala, Ethnic groups in Azad Kashmir, Nawab Jassi Khan, Shams Khan (Sudhan)) Most of them don't seem too notable, have poor sourcing, and some have no valid English sources. The ones on the military figures are sourced similarly to this very article, which seems to indicate they too should be deleted for the same reasoning as this one.

Now that I realise this, the user seems to show WP:OWNERSHIP and is on a crusade to get Nawab Jassi Khan "protected from vandalism." They requested protection once at AFP (linking to my profile in their signature for some reason) and when it was declined they added it three separate times to the rolling archive. R9tgokunks ⭕ 02:03, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@R9tgokunks: Sigh. If only the ANI would have done something when I reported them for repeatedly removing CSD tags, but noooo. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 02:07, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The creator's other articles are bundled for AfD here. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 02:30, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: not substantially different from the last article about the same topic. Equally, notability has not been established per WP:GNG, IMO. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 09:17, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and please will the reviewing admin consider blocking the creator - the number of problems being caused by the account is phenomenal and not all of them are referred to on their talk page, eg: undiscussed and inappropriate page moves as recently as the last 24 hours. - Sitush (talk) 09:55, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per nom. I would echo the disruptive nature of editing by the page creator. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 02:01, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - article creator Astore Malik (talk · contribs), is now permanently banned from editing. R9tgokunks ⭕ 01:53, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Possibly merge and redirect to the regiment that he established. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:30, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
