Safdar Zaidi

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No reliable sources per WP:RS. No real world notability as search produces nothing. Writing single novel and translating to Dutch language won't make someone notable. Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:ANYBIO. No notable awards or done something special. Fails WP:GNG

Source 1: Daily Dharti, not notable as it is a local online website. Its posts are related to the problems faced by Pakistani diaspora and can't be trusted. Source 3,5,8 are related to the same website which is a local unreliable source. Source 4 discuss him but that single source doesn't show he has done something special.

Adding to that I searched local Urdu newspapers and can't find anything. He doesn't have an article on Dutch or Urdu Wikipedia. If anyone has any reliable sources please post and I will have no objection. Greenbörg (talk) 11:13, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete author of non-notable novel/books therefore fails WP:AUTHOR. cited sources are not reliable except one noted above but as said it doesn't discuss the subject in detail. --Saqib (talk) 18:05, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
