Regarding Hiba Qadir Article
[edit]To remove this unreliable sources tag what is the solution for this Nayab Shareyar (talk) 16:09, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- Nayab Shareyar, I recommend taking a bit of time to understand the WP:RS and WP:BLP better. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 16:17, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you Saqib bhai. Nayab Shareyar (talk) 16:19, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- Nayab Shareyar, But it’s clear that despite multiple warnings and requests, you continue to add WP:OR using unreliable sources. This behavior must stop immediately. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 07:12, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Globally locked?
[edit]Hello, Saqib,
I don't know if you have access to your User talk page as you have been globally locked as a compromised account. There is no email link so I'm not sure how one might get in touch with you. I see no signs of disruption on your account so I'm baffled why this is happening and hope that more information comes to light. Liz Read! Talk! 06:52, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Liz, Thanks for checking in on me. I've emailed you anyway. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 14:30, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- I see you are no longer blocked. That was a weird situation. When I thought your account might be compromised, I undid an edit you made to your User page. You might want to revert me. I contacted the WMF person who blocked you on Meta but I haven't seen if they responded to my message. Glad you got things straightened out. Liz Read! Talk! 05:18, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
Mubarak Sani case
[edit]Good day, Saqib! Wondering if you could review this draft as you have better understanding and importance of this case in Pakistan. 5.30.196.122 (talk) 07:36, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Good start, but there are two issues. First, the article reads like a news story. Please divide it into sections. Second, you’ve relied heavily on one source despite the availability of various coverage. I'd suggest add more sources and then submit it for review, and I’ll handle the rest. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 07:50, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, I will find some time to expand it today or tomorrow. 94.204.55.208 (talk) 07:58, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Request to review decision to delete article on Uzma Beg
[edit]Hi Saqib,
Hope you are well. I'm not very well versed in editing and contributing to Wikipedia... hence I may make some mistakes or misunderstand things - please forgive me if I do - it is just my lack of understanding.
I noticed that you had deleted an article about Uzma beg the Pakistani actress. I wanted to ask you how I can go about providing the right information so that the decision to delete can be reversed. I can see that you are sincere about accuracy and wanting to ensure that articles are of good quality. Uzma Beg has acted in many TV serials and also one movie. She became a household name in Pakistan for her role as Bakhto in Chupke Chupke and also had a prominent role in the hit TV serial Hum Tum. She has acted in more than a dozen other TV shows and also acted in a movie called Dum Mastam. I would like to take steps to restore the page that was deleted. The page that was deleted had links to many references including magazine articles and interviews of her.
Can you help me understand the additional information needed to be provided to fulfill the rules for allowing restoration of the article? Also is there a way to find a draft of the article I had worked so hard on - so that I can start over?
Thanks in advance for your patience. I apologize for troubling you and look forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
Sahgalji Sahgalji (talk) 18:05, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
- Sahgalji, Why are you so hell-bent on writing BLP about the same actress? Do you have any personal connections or payment involved in writing about this actress? It’s good to be upfront about any COI. Also, since the article was deleted through AfD, I can’t help with it anymore. You might want to reach out to Liz, who closed the AfD. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 06:04, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Saqib, Thanks for your quick reply sir - it is much appreciated.
- She is a famous actress of Pakistan and now has a large body of work that has built up especially since 2015. She is a person of public interest and has a significant fan following. Hence, I would like to follow the process to improve the article such that it meets the publication standards of Wikipedia and provides an accurate summary of her professional work. There is no monetary compensation for me at all and I have no interest in pushing inaccurate information. I'm a senior professional working for a multi-national in Dubai. I'm not in the media industry in any way shape or form.
- I deduce from your profile that you are likely from Pakistan? Perhaps you would have heard of her? Most of her shows air on HumTV, but she has also done work for PTV and other channels. She has been interviewed multiple times by prominent magazines such as Something Haute (Video: Uzma Beg reveals why she was reluctant to play Bakhto in Chupke Chupke – Something Haute)
- I have reached out to Liz and requested her to allow me to access the previous article as a draft so that I may work on it and improve it.
- If you have time, I'd value your guidance as I'm not at all familiar with contributing to Wikipedia. I see from your profile that you say, "I get a great deal of satisfaction at improving our articles as much as I can, particularly those related to Pakistan".
- I'm trying to do the same for this article! Sahgalji (talk) 11:28, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
- Sahgalji, Honestly, she doesn't meet the GNG or NACTOR criteria right now, so I can't really help you with that. It’s better to hold off on making a BLP about her until someone else creates one when she truly deserves it. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 11:48, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
My draft page Draft:Western Punjabi
[edit]My draft page Draft:Western Punjabi is based on the existing Dutch Wikipedia article at nl:West-Punjabi and is about the Western Punjabi language that's used on the Western Punjabi Wikipedia, which uses the Shahmukhi script, and is separate from the Punjabi Wikipedia (which uses the Gurmukhi script) for some reason, possibly for technical reasons. PK2 (talk; contributions) 10:54, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
- PK2, Thank you for your patience! I haven’t been as active lately. I have a couple of questions. 1) does Lahnda only use the Gurmukhi script? 2) the Lahnda article mentions that Lahnda is spoken in Pakistan, but it wasn’t. Anyway, feel free to resubmit the article for review; someone else can handle it since I’m not really an expert in this area. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 14:40, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
my draft page Draft:Pind Goleki
[edit]you had rejected my page once and I have tried my best to improve it with better references. I want to see what else can I improve pls can you help me thanks :) Aman Sandhu 12 (talk) 16:46, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
- Aman Sandhu 12, The article seems quite promotional. Please shorten it and avoid using unreliable sources. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 07:38, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- I don't understand what part of it sounds like an advert, this is what's like bugging me the most cause genuinely believe me when I say this its taking me way to long to figure that out and I did shorten it just like you asked and all the sources I have used are reliable you can double check them, they are literally done by government officials you can't get more reliable then them Aman Sandhu 12 (talk) 08:25, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- Umm can I ask why have you taken the initiative of completely rejecting my draft, and what's this about adding additional information later on. Was this necessary? because Im frankly offended im adding these information as this area is very poorly researched and whilst your here trying to get rid of draft. I mean what do I have to do to tell you that I won't add any additions if approved you have my word. Aman Sandhu 12 (talk) 08:41, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- and also what's with you having an issue with you using my own images that I have taken from my own phone from my trip to Pakistan. I feel like there's an agenda against me even with the references and sources I was using statistic from Pak Gov, and also using BRITISH GAZZETTER and idk why you lot said its not a reliable source Aman Sandhu 12 (talk) 08:48, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- Aman Sandhu 12,
I feel like there's an agenda against me
That’s enough for me to stop engaging with you. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 09:22, 22 September 2024 (UTC)- yh cause your argument your whole argument about rejecting my draft is based on a feeling, you know how stupid that sounds rather than using your position in a position of authority usefully, and give ACTUAL help, your basing your rejection on a feeling, and also YOU LITERALLY PUT A COPYRIGHT CLAIM ON MY OWN BLOODY PICTURES. so do u understand why I said that or did your "feelings" said that not to engage with me Aman Sandhu 12 (talk) 09:59, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- And you put copyright claim on older picture which were reviewed several times but WHEN YOU CHECKED THEM you put a claim on them, u tell me actually wait I will tell you since you love using your feelings instead of the brain god I presume gave you, to anyone it would look like you have something against them Aman Sandhu 12 (talk) 10:03, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

My Draft page Draft:Tariq Sheikh
[edit]Hi Saqib, Thanks for your time and efforts to review my work, always glad to learn from expert editors. Agreed with the remarks as I'm still working on this draft page to make it comply with the WP guidelines before the final publish.
Also would like to clarify that there's nothing like paid task at all. If I do not write, anyone else can do it even if you want, none of my own interest here. It's just for the sake of sharing information with the readers as whenever I read about something notable and don't find it here, try to write on it with whatever the information available from open sources. It takes long due to my personal engagements and sometimes months to complete a draft until it's ready to publish. Hope it clarifies. Feel free to let me know if I did something wrong. Jugni (talk) 18:43, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

Author notability
[edit]Hi there, I'm not very familiar with author BLP's and wanted to ask if this author qualifies as notable. I just came across one of his books and I must admit, I'm surprised it covers way more for whole sports including football then what I did during these years. So far I only found this, this and this. Not sure if two sources covering him in detail from Dawn and The News are enough but will try to find more sources. I do believe it qualifies as per WP:AUTHOR but thought I would get a 2nd opinion and ask for your input. JayFT047 (talk) 13:34, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
- JayFT047, I'm also unsure if this author easily meets the WP:NAUTHOR because while he has authored some books, they don't seem significant enough to me. If there's doubt about meeting WP:N, I usually recommend creating a draft and allow a reviewer to assess it once the bio is ready. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 13:53, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
Please study WP:DRAFTIFY
[edit]Unfortunately you moved Mayi Ri to draft in this edit. This was an error. Please focus on the section "Reasons not to move an article to draftspace". While I can see the wording "Editors should generally avoid moving an article to draftspace in the following circumstances:" you need to consider the word "generally" You should also look at the move log among the logs. If you feel this article should not be in mainspace as presented your course of acton is either:
- Send it to WP:AFD
- tag it for improvement
I doubt it was your intention to make this error. I am sure your intentions were in good faith. My request is simply that you increase your knowledge to avoid errors. We all make them as we learn. I've made a great many. I am sure I will make new ones. I just try hard not to repeat old mistakes. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 19:22, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

hi saqib hope you are doing well. First of all according to Wikipedia:Notability this article is eligible. what are the reasons behind the rejection please elaborate at here.Second thing All the sources are Verified according to the Wikipedia:Reliable sources majority of the refferences are from the pakistan no 1 channels website. And if i understand the policy of the wikipedia. this platform is used to provide information and we are providing wikipedia information free of cost. SO why are all these objections please tell me which links are unverified . if you are saying that Geo Entertainment's and other pakistan no. 1 channels websites are fake it means you are questioning to their authenticity and their wikipedia information are also fake. before i started i did a lot of research like these biography and checked For example Yasir Nawaz .FYI Irfan Alsam is a Drama Director he served the industry with his lots art and drama. also last thing there is the Referencing for beginners and Citing sources is accurately done. kindly please tell me which kind of refferences this biography
is required and why did you declined it. waiting for your reply. — Saqib
Faizullah Anwar (talk) 23:43, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- Faizullah Anwar, I’m not the only one who rejected your draft—two other editors did too. While you think the references you used are reliable, I don’t agree. Many of the sources aren’t WP:RS . Plus, the BLP feels really PROMO, which is a big issue. I just don’t think the subject meets WP:N either. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 18:04, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- how to get improve this article need your asistance to publish it on wikipedia asap. if you are interested to figuring it out. Faizullah Anwar (talk) 16:16, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:46, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

Reconsider your admin nom
[edit]I see you are running for adminship. You honestly think you'd make a good admin with your toxic editing behavior? Like seriously? Frankly, you should just withdraw your nomination. It’s almost funny. Why not save yourself the embarrassment and just withdraw now? Everyone knows about your involvement in your conflict of interest and paid editing remember this & you really think the community’s gonna overlook that? If you don’t wanna withdraw now, be ready for some tough questions from all those people you've let down. But best wishes anyhow. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bundu9090 (talk • contribs) 05:11, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

- Thankful for your appreciation! I'm barely getting started and will definitely need input from you and others as I go. I noticed there's quite a backlog in this area, so I thought I’d lend a hand. For example, one of my reports regarding RaviEditor still hasn't gotten a response from anyone. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 06:56, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- One thing I've learnt about COIN is that some threads get a lot of interest and some don't. There doesn't seem to be a clear reason for this. It used to be the case that the great majority of threads didn't result in any sanctions being applied because admins rarely visited COIN. I've recently been able to get an admin to dispense blocks on particularly serious and obvious COIN cases. However, there is also a feeling that the more serious cases probably ought to go to WP:ANI rather than WP:COIN to get more admin exposure.
- I remember the days when most threads ended up without blocks and at present I'm just happy that COIN gets a degree of admin support. The fact that some threads don't go anywhere I just take as a fact of life. One thing, however, is that if the subject of an unresolved thread needs to be taken back to COIN at a later date then the chances of the new thread being resolved increase significantly.
- Also, most of the people taken to COIN are very small time operators with barely concealed COIs, or people editing on behalf of their company, their family, etc. Most of these people just disappear when it is pointed out that there are rules about editing and it isn't just an extension of social media.
- Also worth noting, I think, that many of the non-notable rubbish articles that COI users seem to often curate are attracting perhaps 3 views a day (and some of those views are probably the COI user looking at their own article!). That being the case it probably isn't worth worrying too much because, you know, there are other things in life.
- If you have difficulty attracting admin interest at WP:COIN, other good options are WP:RPPI (page protection to stop vandalism, edit warring, general disruptive editing), WP:UAA (for blocking users with username violations, e.g. those who edit under the name of the article), also WP:SPI (for blocking sockpuppets). I've sometimes been able to get COI users blocked through referral to any of those places when I've had no luck at COIN. Axad12 (talk) 09:02, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- A word of advice...
- Careful with WP:OUTING. Better just to say "off wiki evidence suggests some degree of association" or something like that. Posting any personal info about a user which that user has not themselves previously posted on Wikipedia is technically outing under the terms of the policy. Axad12 (talk) 13:47, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Axad12, Thank you for your insights on COI/N. Regarding OUTING, you’re talking about Akif Tanzeel, right? I will be cautious about posting anything that is not publicly available on WP. Thanks for the reminder! — Saqib (talk I contribs) 15:53, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research
[edit]Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Shifa International Hospitals
[edit]Hello Saqib, I've recently been dealing with a COI edit request for Shifa International Hospitals, a healthcare company based in Pakistan. The initial edit request was, to my mind, highly promotional and I declined it. I have been discussing this with the COI editor and I've pointed out to him that the current article probably has an undue amount of negative coverage and that what will be required will be overall fair coverage of good and bad based on independent reliable sources. I wondered if you might take a look at the discussion (and the article) and give us both the benefit of your thoughts? Kind regards, Axad12 (talk) 11:02, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Axad12, You addressed it quite effectively but thank you for bringing this to my attention, as well. I’ve made my comments and I also filed a SPI report. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 13:27, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Many thanks for your input. I hadn't noticed the sock element. Axad12 (talk) 14:26, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
Out of interest...
[edit]...how did you spot the sock activity so quickly on the Mandi News case?
Were you looking at a list of newly created articles or something? And if so, where is it?
As you know, I'm most appreciative of your excellent work. Axad12 (talk) 17:43, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Axad12, I'm a NPP, focusing specifically on Pakistan related articles, which is how I came across their latest BLP. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 17:49, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks.
- In the future I very much hope that you will consider again standing for adminship. To my eyes you are the type of editor who ought to be an admin.
- Admittedly, in some people's opinion I may not be the best person to judge that kind of thing, given my recent misadventures here [1] and here [2]. But no one can please everyone (and I hope I shall never do so)... Axad12 (talk) 18:05, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Axad12, Thanks for your encouragement! I’ll definitely think about seeking adminship when I feel ready, but I worry it might take away from the true editing experience. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 17:53, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
WP:Bully and WP:Canvass
[edit]Just because i was inactive for sometime you have initiated another baseless SPI against me [3] why such bullying behavior? You thought admin would block me as i am not available to clear my points, as usual there was no need of such agression which you have showed on my talkpage just a few hours ago and you want others to assume good faith if some one is continuously supporting you but showing aggresion and filing SPI against me again and again. Also you have a history of attempting WP:CANVASS and want AFD system like team work which everyone is noticing like this one's [4], [5], [6], here two senior editors also pointed out your behavior of canvassing [7], [8], [9]. As far as WP:ATD is concern, it clearly states Delete per nom is WP:ATD but you are supporting this behavior just because it is in your favor.
Also, i am no one to point out but you have archived your chat just after three (two of them are senior and established) pakistani editors pointed out your behavior and tried to correct you on your talkpage User talk:Saqib/Archive 3#Throwing random opinion & accusing others on their talkpage may be because you don't want others to read those messages about your behavior (i may be wrong though) but i want senior editors to read those messages therefore attaching link above.

- Libraa2019, I don’t really get what you’re trying to prove by pulling up diffs to some old, selective comments. If your goal is to make me look like a problematic, flawed editor, then so be it. And that last comment about me trying to hide your old message? That seriously made me laugh. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 11:00, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- I just want you to stop hounding and harassing me and stop baseless allegations like you did here [10] you have tried enough attempts to block me but now please stop it. Libraa2019 (talk) 17:06, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Libraa2019, Honestly, I’m fed up with your constant accusations. I’m not hounding and harassing you; I’m just calling out your edits. Stop trying to make me look like a bad editor just because you can’t defend your position. There’s no need to respond to this message, as this back-and-forth is pointless. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 18:04, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Saqib, If you forgot, i would like to remind you, yesterday, you posted aggresive message on my talkpage and it started from yourside again. I hope it is the last time you used my talkpage for expressing your aggression. I am also fed up with your same allegations again and again. Libraa2019 (talk) 19:01, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Libraa2019, This comment was not an allegation; if it were, you wouldn't be striking your comments. And neither was the comment aggressive, as you're claiming. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 19:08, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Saqib There are countless attempts in which you passed derogatory comments on me by calling me UPE, sock etc. I've struck off my comment because admin said not because of you. He is an admin and he has a right. Those comments were not for you then why did you posted such aggresive message? Besides, i was shocked to see you filed SPI in my absense. Will you care to explain what was that? Were you trying to block me because i was not available to prove my point? Is this normal behavior? Libraa2019 (talk) 19:31, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

- Libraa2019, please read what I wrote below. I understand that discussions over content can be contentious and frustrating at times, but please file an appropriate complaint or WP:DTS. And to clarify, an admin has a right to say whatever they want, but I think you misunderstand the role and authority of an admin. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:35, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker), Saqib, please make sure to always assume good faith regardless of what could be perceived as an attack. Libraa2019, you need to stop making accusations of bullying and bludgeoning. You were warned in the linked deletion discussion about attempted intimidation. If you feel editor conduct is not appropriate, please report to WP:ANI. But, please make sure to read WP:CLEANHANDS. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:13, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- CNMall41, I can totally see why they’d be frustrated (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Laiba Khan and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Woh Aik Pal (2nd nomination)), — Saqib (talk I contribs) 14:27, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- I am too seeing from where Saqib's frustration is coming and it is totally understandable (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Abu Aleeha (2nd nomination) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Akhtar Usman). Libraa2019 (talk) 16:37, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- How the frustration happened is of no interest. The response after becoming frustrated is. Again, ANI is that way but failure to WP:DTS takes away from everyone's enjoyment of editing Wikipedia. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:36, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure what exactly your aim is but it seems you are in an hurry to get rid of these articles. Why did you want to merge Kaio Island to Churna, which is about something else altogether? And why are thirteen reliable sources not sufficient? What number would satisfy you to publish an article? Gedrose (talk) 18:15, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- Gedrose, I've got nothing against these islands, but you need to keep GNG in mind. The coverage you cited doesn't really help meet GNG and it’s not just about how many sources there are - it’s really about the quality of those sources. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 18:18, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- So you regard a United Nations body, a national government ministry, national newspapers and international charities to be poor quality sources? I do not understand what kind of sources you're looking for. Your repeated failure to address my questions is why I question your aim. Your initial reasoning for Churna–Kaio Islands was that you thought it was redundant to Churna Island (which has far fewer references). You then pointedly refused to answer my question on why you thought the sources were insufficient to demonstrate notability. Again and again I've asked the same question, only to get effectively a point blank response that you just don't like the articles. Can you bring yourself to write a proper answer or are you going to keep using the generic response of GNG is not met? Gedrose (talk) 18:48, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- Gedrose, It seems you want me to conduct a source assessment, but this isn’t the right forum for that and I don’t have the time at the moment. All I can say is that I find the sources as TRIVIALMENTION, not poor quality, that doesn’t addresses the topic directly and in detail. And my reasoning for suggesting that the Churna–Kaio Islands be merged into the Churna Island article is the same: when a topic fails to meet WP:N, it should be merged with the closest relevant topic, which in this case is Churna Island. Isn't it? Also, if you believe the Churna Island article has fewer sources, I encourage you to focus your efforts on improving that article rather than advocating for the creation of articles on what I see as a non-notable locations. I repeat I've nothing against these islands or your articles, so please assume AGF and avoid unfounded accusations. Lastly, I recommend you revisit WP:N for clarity on notability. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 20:29, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
- I would have assumed that you did check the sources before making a unilateral move to draft. You've pointed to WP:TRIVIALMENTION which is an essay that does not go beyond the guidelines, so it is no help in defining your argument. I'd ask if you've read WP:GEONATURAL, which says that names natural features (including islands) are notable if there is "information beyond statistics and coordinates". All of the sources used in Churna–Kaio Islands and Kaio Island go beyond statistics and coordinates. Three of the references have multiple pages about the islands. Are you still going to say this is trivial? There are multiple tags you could have used in a helpful way such as the notability, more citations, expand tags. You could have left a message on my talk page explaining your concerns and suggesting moving to draft. Instead you've taken a high-handed approach and made some intensive assumptions. Are you willing to admit it was a mistake to propose a merger between Kaio Island and Churna (a mixture of powdered herbs) as you did here? Anyone can make mistakes but I think it shows you did not check what you were proposing. Gedrose (talk) 10:08, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Gedrose, Yes, I made a mistake proposing a merger with Churna instead of Churna Island. I totally didn’t think there could be an Ayurvedic medicine called Chiurna. Silly me! Also, I checked GEONATURAL and it says that
Named natural features are often notable
, but that doesn’t mean they always are. Also, just to clarify, I haven’t deleted any article or AFD’d them; but your comment makes it sound like they’ve vanished into thin air. I just draftified them and if you think my draftification doesn’t make sense, feel free to ask for an AFC review. I also noticed that another editor took a look at your draft Draft:Churna–Kaio Islands and declined it. Guess I’m not the only one who thinks it’s not notable yet. I guess this is a classic case of TOOSOON? Anyway, instead of arguing here, it might be more productive to work on improving the article and get them approved through AFC. What do you think? — Saqib (talk I contribs) 10:35, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
