A 2018 edit[edit]

A long, long time ago, on Mian Tahir Pervaz, you added this citation {{cite news|title=List of winners of Punjab Assembly seats|url=https://www.thenews.com.pk/archive/print/429935|accessdate=18 January 2018|work=The News|date=13 May 2013|language=en}}[1] It links to an article titled Dhoni’s cricket brain crucial for India at World Cup. I don't see any mention of Pervaz or politics. Did thenews.com change their numbering scheme? No hits from Googling "List of winners of Punjab Assembly seats" for thenews.com.pk. The URL has not been archived on the Wayback Machine. Should the citation simply be deleted.

Citation [3]: PML-N MPA, sons named in FIR over sexually abusing minor domestic help appears to have Pervaz' photo, but does not mention him by name. Should that citation be removed?

BTW: There is also an article Muhammad Tahir Pervaiz, which has a recent AKA as Mian Tahir Pervaz. Should the two be merged? Cheers Adakiko (talk) 20:36, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Adakiko: It's indeed strange that The News story seems to have been deleted, especially considering it wasn't controversial in any way. Perhaps they changed the URLs, as I've noticed similar occurrences recently. It's also concerning that the Wayback Machine didn't archive the page. Anyways, I've replaced the reference for verification for now. Regarding the third reference, it did mention the subject in the second paragraph. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 18:58, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for taking care of that! News sites often remove articles after a limited time. Some have their own archives, others do not. One has to make a request for the Wayback Machine to archive. Also, litigation has forced the Wayback Machine not to archive some websites.
What is with with that teapot? Someone requested deletion. The editor uploaded two images with that teapot. Editor's uploads The image is also the Simple English Wiki: simple:Mian Tahir Pervaz and simple:Mian Tahir Jameel. If you understand why it's vandalism, you might chime in on the nomination pages: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Abid Sher Ali.jpg and Commons:Deletion requests/File:Mian Tahir Jameel.jpg. I just assumed it was some sort of logo or something. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 11:32, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Adakiko: It's not a logo or a teapot, but rather a "LOOTA" which is used in toilets in South Asia. Its depiction in this context could be seen as vandalism or even libelous. In Pakistan, "loota" refer to lawmakers who frequently change political parties. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 11:42, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A candidate of XXXX?[edit]

Seems like all your creations have the same copy-paste error, please slow down and improve your creations. Fram (talk) 17:02, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fram: No need to worry. I've fixed all of them. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 17:19, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It seems as though you created the articles in a hurry this time around and did not take great care in finding the existing articles for MPs. I have so far found duplicate articles for three Sindh Assembly members among the articles which you created recently. Did you use some kind of automated method to create articles in bulk as there are multiple articles created in a single minute? Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 04:29, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SheriffIsInTown: I wish there were an automated tool for this, but unfortunately, I had to search manually for each lawmaker to see if they already had a WP BLP. If no results came up, I created one. Mistakes can happen, especially with spelling variations in lawmakers' names. I saved most of the pages in one go, which might give the impression of using an automated tool. Out of the over 250 BLPs I created recently, you've only found a couple that already existed, demonstrating that I did conduct thorough Google searches. The main issue isn't creating single-line BLPs, stubs will grow over time, as they did back in 2018. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 07:35, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, which assembly had the most duplicate BLPs that you found? I'd like to review them and see where things went wrong. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 07:41, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I only checked Sindh Assembly so far and that too just a fraction. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 21:00, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SheriffIsInTown: OK it appears that most of the duplication issues were in BLPs related to Karachi MPAs. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 08:38, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I did not get to BLP articles other than the Karachi ones yet so it is hard to conclude that. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 10:34, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Faizanalivarya: This is quite amusing. On one hand, you're falsely accusing me of personal attacks and requesting a ban on me, while on the other hand, you're seeking friendship with me. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 21:38, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Saqib I am not falsely accusing you for anything, did you read my articles? instead of improving it you just ask for deletion and you also went to my created articles and kept doing the same, so it does cover under WP:NPA policy which you did break, you need to work on your behavior, I did visit your contribution history, you didnt make any significant change in improving wikipedia you just projected negativity instead of contributing on main pages you like to write on peoples talk pages, and try to increase your edit count which is again a breaking of Wikipedia editing policy WP:EP.
I report you because your action is totally biased, false and invalid and ask for friendship because we are here to improve Wikipedia as I said I can improve your articles not issues, if I want I can also nominate your article for deleting but I am not like that, I love to help and assist people as much as I can.
And As its Ramadan going on we can respect each other and learn from each other, if still you will keep breaking polices so unfortunately I need to keep the reporting against you if you think you can change and truly want to improve wikipedia so we can work together and improve Wp:pakistan and other projects.
I am working on many sideline projects with Wikimedia foundation in UK so I can add you in those as well but you need to change your attitude towards people and be nice with them.
I hope to end with a positive note again, lets join hands and work together. Happy Ramadan :) Faizan Munawar Varya chat contributions 23:52, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Faizanalivarya: I'm not interested in your offers if it means turning a blind eye to the violations you commit on BLPs. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 13:47, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It does not mean anything @saqib you are ignoring the positive gesture of helping and contribution for Wikipedia together as team. I do not appreciate any violations if there is any issue you are welcome to highlight but reporting something which is invalid that would be not appreciated.

2nd Notice for Invalid deletion request[edit]

Hi Dear Saqib, You have nominated Rana Muhammad Akram Khan for deletion for the reason that there is no reference that is directly about him but it was pointed out there. Apparently, you seem to nominate articles for deletions not on basis of any solid ground but rather out of your confusion, Please remember that successive deletion nominations go against wikipedia's policy as it can discourage potential editors. kind regards. DavidSchop (talk) 17:55, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DavidSchop: The nomination for deletion of the BLP of Rana Muhammad Akram Khan makes complete sense as he does not warrant a WP entry at this time. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 18:00, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is a circular or Begging the question argument. please get a life. DavidSchop (talk) 18:10, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Courtesy notice[edit]

Hi Saqib. I have blanked and redirected Sarah Ahmad (Pakistani politician) to Sarah Ahmad as it had more content! I thought I'd let you know. Cheers Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 06:28, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jeraxmoira: OK no issue but Sarah Ahmad contained OR. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 10:28, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Noam Bettan[edit]

Hello, could you help me give a linguistic cleaning to the Noam Bettan article? --Acartonadooopo (talk) 20:43, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Acartonadooopo: It's not something I'm interested in. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 20:46, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If it is not of interest to you, why do I think about the deletion. If you didn't like the article or us in general, you didn't have to do it. Well, thank you, it made everything worse.--Acartonadooopo (talk) 20:52, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Acartonadooopo: What do you mean by "us"? Just to let you know, I've many good Israeli friends. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 20:59, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unfair advantage because of Jimmy[edit]

Hey, I perceive that you might have an unfair advantage on ANI and other noticeboards because of your photo with Jimmy Wales, possibly due to editors' respect for the Wikipedia founder. You're entitled to manage your user page as you see fit, but I want to express my observation that simply meeting Jimmy at a conference and taking a photo with him doesn't necessarily mean you're close friends with him. Likewise, it doesn't diminish the contributions of editors who haven't had the opportunity to meet him. I've noticed that during conflicts or controversial editing situations (15:30, 19 March 2024), you sometimes restore his picture (22:10, 19 March 2024), perhaps as a symbolic gesture to gain support. It's worth mentioning that others are aware of this as well. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 16:18, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your message caught me off guard. I never implied that I was a friend of Jimmy, did I? I simply met him at a Wikimania conference and thought it would be nice to have a photo with him on my user page. I'm surprised or rather disappointed by your suggestion that having a photo with Jimmy could confer some sort of influence or unfair advantage to me here. I must say that your focus on me rather than on the articles is concerning. I encourage you to redirect your energy towards constructive collaboration and improvement of WP articles. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 16:33, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Adil Raja's Draft Page[edit]

Hell Saqib. I worked on Draft:Adil Raja. You said it should "meet any of the eight academic-specific criteria" or "cite multiple reliable, secondary sources independent of the subject, which cover the subject in some depth". Firstly, why does it need to meet an academic specific criteria? I never mentioned that he was linked with education. He's a journalist. Additionally, I cited 66 different news about him. I worked really hard on the article and kept it as neutral as possible. Please tell me what I can do to get it accepted. Thank you so much bro!

WarriorYt43 (talk) 17:34, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@WarriorYt43: IMO the BLP still fails to meet WP:N. The page relies on some unreliable sources, lacks a NPOV, and promotional in nature. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 17:41, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How is it not neutral and how is it promotional? I tried to make it the best to my ability. I still don't know why you're saying fails to meet WP:N. How's it not notable? There's more news on Adil Raja as of today. Please help me so I can actually get this published. Quote any biased sentences from my draft. You should accept the draft so others can assist me in making it better. Thank you WarriorYt43 (talk) 17:53, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK allow me to cleanup the page first. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 18:08, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. Thank you so much bro! WarriorYt43 (talk) 19:10, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Should I re-submit the draft now? WarriorYt43 (talk) 20:37, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@WarriorYt43: Not yet. Thus far, I've only removed unacceptable sources. However, the content previously cited by those unacceptable sources remains and needs to be addressed as well. It's not advisable to resubmit it in its current state. I'm also occupied with other tasks, so it will take some time. If you're able, please review each line and remove any material that could be considered WP:OR. --—Saqib (talk | contribs) 09:53, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's better for you to do it because I'm not that experienced. Take your time. Thank you! WarriorYt43 (talk) 11:21, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
