[edit] Hussain Ali Nasser
This article would appear to be a complete hoax perpetrated by LindsayKensington (talk · contribs). Google has no indication of anyone by the name of Hussain Ali Nasser, nor does it find much of anything for his nickname, Ali Bob. The band "Chustaani Murghi" he was apparently part of doesn't exist. All of the articles for record labels he was allegedly signed to were created by the same user. None of the references in the article actually refer to the subject. Essentially, this is total bollocks. Delete with prejudice. Tony Fox (arf!) 17:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC) Tony Fox (arf!) 17:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, articles' references don't check out. Pete.Hurd (talk) 20:02, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
PAKISTAN IS A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY. THIS YOUNG MAN IS A PAKISTANI ARTIST. THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE OF SYSTEMATIC ORGANISATION OVER THERE AND MOST OF THEIR NOTABLE ARTISTS CANNOT THEREFORE BE TRACED ON GOOGLE, IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE NOT NOTABLE HOWEVER!
IMRAN KHAN, THE COUNTRY'S MOST FAMOUS CRICKETER-TURNED-POLITICIAN USES HOTMAIL AS HIS PERSONAL EMAIL ADDRESS AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE HIS OWN DOMAIN NAME REGISTERED.
PRESIDENT GENERAL PERVEZ MUSHARRAF'S WIFE HEATS UP HIS CURRY IN A CLAY POT, RATHER THAN A MICROWAVE OVEN WHEN HE GETS HOME TIRED FROM WORK.
BENAZIR BHUTTO GOES TO THE LOCAL 'FRIDAY BAZAAR' TO BUY HER BRAS AND PANTIES, RATHER THAN ORDERING THEM OFF THE INTERNET WITH A MASTERCARD LIKE HILLARY CLINTON WOULD DO.
AND YOU'RE EXPECTING AN ARTIST FROM SUCH A BACKWARD NATION TO BE ON GOOGLE.COM WITH ACTIVE LINKS TESTIFYING HIS NOTABILITY EVERYWHERE? YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE NUTS. IT IS RATHER RACIST OF YOU IN FACT TO ENFORCE SUCH AN EXPECTATION OFF SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS INCAPABLE OF LIVING UP TO YOUR DEMANDS.
THOSE RECORD COMPANIES ARE FOR REAL, THEY EXIST, THEY ARE FAMOUS IN THE REGION, BUT THEY DON'T ALL HAVE TO HAVE THEIR OWN WEBSITES.
PLEASE CONSIDER LEAVING THIS ARTICLE ON HERE, ITS DELETION MAY OFFEND A LOT OF PAKISTANI, INDIAN AND ARAB FANS THIS ARTIST/SINGER HAS AROUND THE WORLD AND IT MAY CREATE AN UNNECESSARY UPROAR. WITH SO MUCH WRONG GOING ON IN THE WORLD, THE LAST THING WE ALL WISH TO SEE IS FURTHER CHAOS! AND WIKIPEDIA SURELY WOULD NOT WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IT, SO GUYS, FOR THE SAKE OF PEACE PLEASE KEEP THIS ARTICLE ON YOUR SITE, THIS GUY IS A BLOODY GREAT SINGER.
YOU SHOULD EVEN LISTEN TO HIS MUSIC YOURSELVES, YOU'LL FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM.

- Maybe you could provide links that actually refer to the artist, instead of referring to other people, as the current references do? Tony Fox (arf!) 21:01, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, and the 'caps lock' key is to the left of the 'a' - please stop shouting. Tony Fox (arf!) 21:14, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete None, and I mean not one, of the references provide evidence that the gentleman even exists. Assuming good faith the burden still is on the contributor to properly source this, otherwise he hasn't been shown to be notable. I'll happily revise my vote upon such a showing.

- Delete, to the above statement by lindsay, the article says he is based in australia, not pakistan, i'm sure there would be online sources about him. Besides, who says people from Pakistan can't have enough sources to get articles, what do you call these Category:Pakistani people?
- Also i have a breakdown here of the links in so-called references section.
-
- "EntertainOz - ALi BoB signed to Arif Tabalchy's Management" - actually a link to an article about someone called Steven Jaymes, no mention of this guy
- Tikkay Pe Tikka on YouTube.Com - link to unavailable video
- Martian Music: ALi BoB - error page
- http://online.mq.edu.au/pub/MUS209/welcome.htm Macquarie University Music Program - Conducted by ALi BoB] - no mention of him
- Education Western Australia Workshops - Conducted by ALi BoB - site doesn't work
- ALi BoB & Darren Hayes on ABC News- page about strictly come dancing (?).
Plus there is this image, which is clearly faked [Image:Alibobdaz.jpg]] Not much else to say really--Jac16888 (talk) 21:23, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - I have no faith in an editor that uses CAPS to shout her/his message. Also no sources to prove existence/notability. If this is a hoax, the user perpetrating it should be blocked. Sfacets 21:27, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. If the content is as unverifiable as LindsayKensington claims, then we can't well have it on Wikipedia, now can we. Someguy1221 (logged out) 21:34, 22 November 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.142.232.120 (talk)
- Delete - not verifiable. AKRadeckiSpeaketh 22:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete and SALT Editor only seems to be contributing hoaxes and chaos (this attack pic of Michael Jackson for instance which I've speedied), and the Photoshopping on that page is laughably bad. The all caps attack on Pakistani figures and assertions we are racist also play into this as a complex hoax. Also suggesting salting because I have a feeling this could be re-posted later on.
