I couldn't establish that this meets WP:NOTABILITY. Searches turned up information on the town and no evidence of notability for this sub-set of the clan. It seems it can also be spelt Babuzai. I considered a merge or redirect to Yusufzai (Pashtun tribe), where it is not mentioned, but as this entire sub-stub is unreferenced and unverified, I thought it best not to; no evidence that they are worth a mention/redirect. Babozai, Mardan (the town) should be moved to this page - clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and the vast majority of the incoming links to this page were meant for the twon, resolving them now.

Not entirely sure - Books found some results to at least confirm they exist with some not so good sources here (not as definite). This is likely another case of non-English and offline sources considering this is Pakistan (along with the low use of technology by these people, I'm presuming).

Redirect to Yusufzai (Pashtun tribe) it's a small fraction and most commonly used spellings are Babuzai. sami ^talk 23:31, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No point in a redirect to Yusufzai (which is the article's actual title; the suggested target above is a redirect). This subject is not mentioned there, and nothing in this article is verified. Also, it appears that this article is standing in the way of an article about the town, which IS notable and verified and is the primary meaning of Babozai. --MelanieN (talk) 21:22, 24 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
