Self-proclaimed ethical hackers are not something that would be expected to have an article on English Wikipedia, unless they meet GNG. The subject has received some press coverage (mention in passing) but nothing substantial information about him which enable us to create a proper stand-alone bio on the subject .

  • Delete this promotional article (created by a "consultant, marketing advisor, and proud wikipedian"). The claims of the subject's notability are supported by seemingly legitimate sources which, upon close inspection, prove to be trivial and worthless: Mention of name in a myriad-name list by Microsoft; one passing mention in a BBC article about bugs; etc. Local sources (such as this) provide straight up fawning verbiage, unworthy of sourcing. The subject's a young student. Give him time and he might make it here yet. -The Gnome (talk) 10:43, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not Agree This is not such a thing that you described, because he has many notable works. Just like Tavis_Ormandy. He also belongs to same category. He is featured on international and national media too. Yes there are some local sources but these sources are highly appreciated in Pakistan.Zulqarnain Haider (talk) 11:52, 6 May 2018 (UTC) Note: This user is creator of the BLP[reply]
