Previous AFD: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Izhar Hunzai

This article survived an AfD here with no concensus. Aylahs, for reasons given on this talk page, is determined that the article should not be merged. Once you dig into the Ghits here and eliminate the WP sourced entries and those relating to other people there is little left. We need to determine the future of the article.

Agree: That's a great solution BlueValour. -- Aylahs (talk) 03:31, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Copied from Talk:Izhar Hunzai:

The discussion on the proposal to delete this article in August, 2006 resulted in no concensus. As a result the bizzare decision was taken to merge the content of this article into the Aga Khan Development Network article. This was an inappropriate solution - essentially dumping the contents of an unwanted article into a context where it had no place. The new Izhar Hunzai section was deleted from its new location and has since been reinstated. This resulted in the discussion cited below.
Izhar Hunzai sounds like a great individual, certainly his father is a well known figure in Northern Pakistan. I have no objection to the existance of an article about him (as long as it is properly maintained). However, the content of this article has no place in the Aga Khan Development Network article. If the Izhar Hunzai content is to be retained it should be done here. If not, simply delete it. Please do not dump it inappropriately on other articles.

The article on Izhar Hunzai was retained following an AfD here. The balance of opinion was that it should be merged into here. If an editor is unhappy then the answer is a second AfD on which I would abstain because of my involvement thus far. BlueValour 23:06, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
The inclusion of the Izhar Hunzai section in this article does not make sense. He is one program manager among many in a vast international organization comprising multiple agencies that each run multiple programs. There is nothing remarkable about his personal contribution to the organization that warrants his inclusion in this article. Including a section on his is akin to profiling a particular mid-level employee of Microsoft on their wiki article.
If, in the wisdom of the wikipedia community, the Izhar Hunzai content is valuable enough to be preserved it should be done elsewhere - perhaps within its own article. Dumping its content inappropriately on this article is not the solution. I am not sure how this is to be resolved within Wikipedia policy / convention, but placing an AfD on this article is unwarranted.
Accordingly, I am moving the Izhar Hunzai back to its own page and I will place an AfD on that article. I will include a copy of this discussion thread to provide context.

  • Question: is he notable for working for the Aga Khan or does he have any merit on his own, and if so: Why are there no references to it? Alf photoman 23:12, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
The Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) runs many rural development programs in various countries, in addition to programs in health, education, humanitarian assistance, etc. (For a list of current programs, see Current Projects of the Aga Khan Foundation. Izhar Hunzai is the General Manager of one such program. His career is impressive, but the Aga Khan Development Network institutions attract and produce many people with impressive accomplishments. He may also be notable because his father Allama Nasir al-Din Nasir Hunzai is a well respected figure in Northern Pakistan.
Ah, thanks, that's the way forward. I have merged his key details into Nasir al-Din Nasir Hunzai. If he subsequently attains significant notability in his own right he can then be broken out again. BlueValour 00:38, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Agree: Good solution BlueValour. -- Aylahs (talk) 03:31, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
