Fails WP:GNG and no evidence or claim of notability. The sourcing is poor, and the article has an overall promotional tone. There are not in-depth coverage in reliable sources. Father is notable but that is it. Vinegarymass911 (talk) 13:48, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Subject works for Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum according to the article and that counts, what raises concern is the significant coverage in independent sourcesTesleemah (talk) 05:07, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Most of it is coming from secondary sources, most of his career is referenced from news articles, his family background is referenced from Bangladesh: A Legacy of Blood, a very reliable source written by Anthony Mascarenhas, Humanitarian and social life is where there may be primary sources, i can remove that if you like. Thomas Khan 45678 (talk) 09:57, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

except for the article on halalop being a secondary source

another notable thing is that he will be running in the coming bangladesh elections but I dont have a secondary source for that yet. Thomas Khan 45678 (talk) 10:07, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It will be better if citation are from independent sources. And don't add any sentence you can't find references for. A notable stub will still stand Tesleemah (talk) 10:57, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i have removed sources that were written by himself Thomas Khan 45678 (talk) 23:02, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

what is promotional? Thomas Khan 45678 (talk) 10:09, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This sentence may give you an idea what "promotional" means; "Sayed Zubair Farooq will win the election, because he's the best and wealthiest politician to ever live in or come from Bangladesh". Intrisit (talk) 17:22, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

nah like what is promotional about the article Thomas Khan 45678 (talk) 19:22, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ohhh, that!! Sorry, seems I didn't scan through the article well! Intrisit (talk) 19:31, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:GNG. Working for someone notable doesn't confer notability - and the claim is unsourced. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 08:53, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Dishonest sourced promotional cruft with lines pulled straight from promotional primary sources. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:12, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
