Not satisfying WP:GNG. Lacks details and coverage from independent sources. A large part of the article mentions about her brother and husband, which doesn't make her notable. Knightrises10 (talk) 15:04, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Salman Taseer. WhileBeing daughter of a famous politician (Salman Taseer) or sister of a notable brothers is not in itself grounds for notability because Notability is not inherited. so the question is whether she meets WP:JOURNALIST. Journalists are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they exist — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:JOURNALIST. But that does not appear to be the case here. She also lacks significant coverage from independent reliable sources so fails to meet basic GNG as well. But she is often in the press (an interview with Newline) and has received a Human Rights Award as per this news story. I would say better redirect than delete. --Saqib (talk) 18:52, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
So you immediately changed your vote when you realised that the article has been nominated by the user whose edits you are 'following'. Interesting. Knightrises10 (talk) 18:58, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Have we had issues in the past? Give me some time to probe. By the way I've stated pretty good reason why we should redirect instead of delete. --Saqib (talk) 19:02, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
LoL, Interesting ! I honestly see no reason to redirect. Saqib is there any justification ? --DBigXray 16:12, 3 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@DBigXray: Why LoL? The subject meets borderline WP:N. Other than getting a a Human Rights Award as per this news story. She also among the four Pakistanis who made it to WEF's 2013 Young Global Leaders list as per this story. As per this RS, she is the official spokesperson of her family (Category:Taseer family) and was interviewed by NDTV, Al Jazeera, MSNBC, NPR, BBC Hard Talk, BBC Radio, CNN and Voice of America. In the absence of Wikipedia page on her family, redirection to her father's page make sense. And if that's not sufficient for you, she has assistant-directed a couple of popular TV series as per this IMDb entry. Redirects are cheap! --Saqib (talk) 19:05, 3 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Saqib LoL was over the cheeky usage of the word 'interesting' nothing more. no offence meant. I can strike if it disturbs you.
Coming to the topic, Per policy, an article created by WP:SOCK is a candidate for WP:CSDG5 seeWikipedia:Dealing_with_sock_puppets#Deleting_articles_or_article_edits.
Human Rights First NGOs' (is barely or non notable NGO) and award is clearly not a notable award. does not prove notability.
WEF is just an NGO, albeit a notable one, but this YGL is given every year to 199 young leaders from 70 countries, again non notable.
Newsline is neither a reliable source, nor her being the official spokesperson of her family does not make her notable.
She was interviewed by International media de to her fathers killing not for her work. Does not prove notability.
As. director or director of couple of TV serials doesn't provide notability. --DBigXray 21:11, 3 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
LoL. Interesting! You said Newsline is neither a reliable source. It is Pakistan's most influential political monthly as per NYT and it has its own Wikipedia entry Newsline (magazine). I'm also unconvinced with your comments about the Human Rights First and WEF. Both org are notable at least by WP standards and that's enough for us. --Saqib (talk) 06:25, 4 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I struck off above. Newsline link u gave was not even opening that time. Anyway the debate is the Notability of the subject not the paper, so lets be on the topic. Please read WP:NOTINHERITED awards by any NGO that has an article does not automatically become Notable. each award has to pass its own notability tests. these awards fail that. if you have an argument on how and why these awards are notable, then I would like to see. regards. --DBigXray 11:25, 4 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@DBigXray: I'm not arguing to keep this BLP. I'm just trying to assert that based on the available coverage in RS, the subject meets the WP:N by borderline so a redirect won't hurt. --Saqib (talk) 08:44, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
