Humza Arshad[edit]

Well written article, but little evidence of significance. References are all youtube clips and a facebook page. Includes recordings of two BBC Asian network interviews, but no indication of lasting notability. Catfish Jim & the soapdish 09:59, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unremarkable, and only hints at notability. Article is a total coatrack showcasing the artist's material that needs to be removed if this is kept Ohconfucius ^¡digame! 14:44, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article should not be deleted as it is quite similar to Fred Figglehorn, not including the comparison in references. The references of Humza Arshad come directly from Arshad's official YouTube channel and from other real and trustworthy videos. Even though they are YouTube/Facebook references they are the only references that could be found on the subject. If other users contribute to the article more then it can be improved more.

- Comment as per Wikipedia:Reliable source examples, YouTube is not a reliable source. If they are the only references that can be found on the subject, we must conclude that the subject is not notable. Catfish Jim & the soapdish 17:45, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, fails WP:GNG. Only sourceable to YouTube, no actual WP:RS to merit an article. Also recommended for deletion are the WP:COATRACK articles Diary of a Bad Man and List of Diary of a Bad Man episodes. --Kinu ^t/_c 17:11, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
