Comment An unfortunately common case - a newly-created sub-stub article, rapidly pushed to AfD, on someone from the British Raj who probably should meet WP:POLITICIAN. But the article is so sketchy that even reasonably certain identification of the subject may be difficult or impossible - made all the more difficult when, as in this case, the article title may well be inaccurate. Going by the one source given, the actual name may well be Nawab Muhammad Abdus Samad Khan, except that Nawab is quite likely actually a title rather than part of the name (and Khan may be as well). One might criticise the rapid AfD except that, if the article is just left, the creator rarely seems to return to improve the article - is the information possibly coming out of a century-old almanac, with little if any more detail than what goes into the articles? PWilkinson (talk) Comment added sometime on 20 or 21 August - apologies for forgetting to sign it at the time

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete: The article does not meet Wikipedia notability guideline. Further, the google search [1] gives name of person of Multan in Pakistan and not of Uttar Pradesh in India. Further, as commented by User PWilkinson the search for correct name Nawab Muhammad Abdus Samad Khan gives some scant [2] reference. But not notable enough to included in Wikipedia. Unless creator comes back with additional information and improves upon page within time limit.Jethwarp (talk) 14:25, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
