• Keep A google search of "mengal tribe" pakistan yielded news articles: asia times, bbc news, economist.com, satisfying both WP:N and WP:V ~ Infrangible 09:22, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Comment (1) WP:N the Mengals are mentioned in passing in the context of newsworthy but not necessarily notable events. The first mentions Ataullah Mengal who is notable in his own right. (2) WP:V, none of the great detail in the Mengal article is verified other than that they are one of the smaller tribes in the Baloch provice of Pakistan. ROGER ^TALK 09:41, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Comment You're absolutely right. If we look hard enough, mainstream media does indeed provide more than enough material. ROGER ^TALK 14:03, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

• Speedy keep Notable and verifiable - article updated ROGER ^TALK 14:03, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
