  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions. -- Pete.Hurd 19:44, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • User:Az haris seems to have created several of these files about minor Pakistani intellectuals. Anthony Appleyard 20:18, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
  • DO NOT DELETE. The scholar enjoys a unique standing in economics and his activism in his country. He is the author various books, one is cited. Notability is there. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Az haris (talk • contribs) 15:03, 14 April 2007 (UTC).
    • I'm not seeing the notability. Please, provide the evidence? If you do, I'll change my mind. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff)
  • Delete I see no evidence of notable impact beyond academia, and no notability above and beyond that of a standard academic, per WP:PROF. Pete.Hurd 21:13, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. Pete gives the same arguments above that I would give. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 01:06, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete not notable. Acalamari 01:48, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
  • No evidence It is really not reasonable to write these articles without giving sources, and expecting us to add them here at Afd. The ed. is much better positioned to find the external references,and also articles by and about these people. DGG 03:12, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, per Dennis' rationale. He may be notable in certain academic circles, but if there isn't evidence of somewhat broader notability I don't think there should be a dedicated page. Lemonsawdust 07:00, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per unsourced. the_undertow talk 08:53, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
