The result was delete. The article on Sharfuddin Shah Wilayat was never properly discussed, it needs to be nominated if someone wants to delete it.--Ymblanter (talk) 08:18, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This just makes no sense to me. It looks like a place but reads like a person? The refs don't seem to refer to the article name. Legacypac (talk) 07:55, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment if references are found demonstrating he was a notable Sufi teacher or that his shrine is notable, this should probably be merged with Sharfuddin Shah Wilayat, which appears to have its own issues. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 17:17, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Wilayat means province, but it also means authority which can be a person I just learned. Yup, merge it per the above comment. Legacypac (talk) 18:50, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Legacypac: I'm not entirely sure, but I think the article for the proposed merge is about a different guy who is Iraqi and this one seems to be a Pakistani, just with a similar name. This is a weird case because there is some information that seems to be notable but it isn't relevant to the subject. It would almost seem more appropriate to merge it to something about Taliban attacks. Is there a way to solicit more community input on this? I don't even know how to approach it.

That is why I sent for delete discussion when reviewing new articles - can't figure it out. Legacypac (talk) 03:55, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete per nom, and nom may wish to bundle Sharfuddin Shah Wilayat into this AfD. (There's an apparent project afoot to create an article on every name mentioned in every Sufi publication. It'd be like every parish priest getting one.) Pax 11:09, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
