Manzoor Ali Khan[edit]

Fails WP:MUSIC/WP:BIO clearly. Scarian ^{Call me Pat!} 12:10, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Clearly notable. He is specified as being a long-time singer with the national radio service, which for the period (b.1924) probably equates to significant notability, and there are 2 references, one a 3 p. entry in an national biographical directory-a selective one [1], listing only 700 people. More accessibly, [2] lists him as one of their 7 most significant artists, describing him as "[t]he legendry Muhtram Ustaad Manzoor Ali Khan needs no intorduction.He inspired a whole generation of Sindhi artists." [3] (spelling as in the original). The death date is apparently a typo, and needs correction. Given the period and place, this is adequate evidence. DGG (talk) 15:04, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
