In its current form, this biography of a living person makes no reference to anything that is said by third parties about the subject, and so does not satisfy general notability. The one reference is a press release which makes a passing mention of the subject, which is not independent coverage or secondary coverage. It states that the subject is the co-founder of EFS Facilities Services Group, but an article on that group has been deleted for lack of corporate notability, so there is no good redirect target.

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople, Companies, and India. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:10, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Written by a just-barely-autoconfirmed sleeper as copyright infringement from a press release. After that was stubbified, revdelled, and draftified and nobody was looking anymore, he pasted the same material back in, where it lasted until the past few hours. Should be speediable, and the only reason it isn't is because we let the good-hand socks of paid editors vote against reasonable countermeasures against advertising even as obvious as this. And, btw, EFS Facilities Group wasn't just deleted, it's currently heading very rapidly towards a blacklisting at DRV. —Cryptic 19:26, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I dont have a problem if the article is deleted if it has no merit. But why was the article blanked out just before the deletion nomination.

This a not a fair review process for deletion as the article was blanked out just before nomination.

Is this some kind of bullying thats going on? The guy is a billionaire and was voted as one of the most powerful businessman in the middle east multiple times.

I can find atleast a million article on wikipedia with not even 1/10th of his notability without any notifications whatsoever. This culture of selective bullying and harassment should stop(2409:4073:4EB1:118F:2D94:5D9B:3BCF:B604 (talk) 12:08, 19 July 2024 (UTC))[reply]

  • Comment - Allegations of selective bullying and harassment by unregistered editors with no evidence are usually ignored, even in conduct forums, and especially in content forums. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - No one is proposing to salt the title. The unregistered editor is welcome to create a new draft article that describes significant coverage of the subject, and to submit the draft for review. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - If the unregistered editor really thinks that there is a culture of selective bullying and harassment, they should report it at WP:ANI with evidence, after reading the boomerang essay. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This is overtly promotional page with no merit of its own. The sources on the page are trivial. If anyone can find any reliable secondary independent sources with indepth notable coverage on the subject and subject's achievement and work, I will reconsider my vote. RangersRus (talk) 17:19, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]


  • Keep How on earth can this be promotional when the whole article was vandalized and blotted out by an editor and there is hardly any content left on the page. This discussion is deviod of any credibility whatsoever. It is a bogus review discussion and a sham honestly. Many others like puppets are resorting to supporting the vandalism and unwarranted aggression done on the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 111.92.118.147 (talk) 05:14, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Upon review of these sources to the extent that I was able to review them, and I significantly was, I would say that these don't exactly help us write an encyclopedia article on the given topic. We could extract some statements from them to add more words to the article, but whatever the result may be, it could not possibly be compliant with the Wikipedia:Core content policies and Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. An inability to write a policy-compliant article with the available sourcing is what it means for a topic to be non-notable. What do you think Robert McClenon? —Alalch E. 11:59, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't consider it useful to argue over disembodied URLs or dumped URLs or detached URLs, out of context. I think that the Heymann criterion is for someone to create a draft, Draft:Tariq Chauhan, so that the references can be seen in context. Is someone ready to create a draft? User:Alalch E. - Maybe that is similar to what you are asking. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:11, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm worried about adding these to the article for I'd be accused of WP:POINT, and indeed I could not add any statements from these sources while citing them as references in good faith. Were I to do that, I could only make a revision even worse and even more promotional than the bad revision linked above, where the source assessment table is. —Alalch E. 22:26, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
