Autobiographical article about a person who fails WP:GNG. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:59, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Poetry, and Pakistan. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:59, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Mccapra (talk) 21:33, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Keep, WP:AB doesn't completely prohibit creation of autobiographical articles, and all the information provided is properly cited, even links to the books that have been published are given, you can read the books yourself, my poetry has been published on many websites, like urdupoint.com which is independent and I have no control over. I recommend the article should be kept, and if there are any neutrality or POV problems, they should be resolved, deleting the article, after all, is something not proper, I think. Sinner (speak) 21:45, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Many of my poems, single or in groups, have also been published on these independent websites none of which have still been cited and used in the article.

- Ebook of my 36 English poems can be downloaded from
- It proves that my poetry is worth-note, so I'm. Sinner (speak) 23:16, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Article also present at Urdu Wikipedia.Sinner (speak) 19:19, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
- The article exists on the Urdu Wikipedia because you just created it! Did you think no-one would notice? How does you writing a Wikipedia article (which is a direct translation of this one, with all the same sourcing problems) about yourself on another project demonstrate that you are notable? How does it demonstrate that you pass WP:GNG or any of the criteria of WP:NPOET? How does this represent
significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject
- It is neither reliable or independent. Quite frankly your attempts at promoting yourself here are becoming disruptive. 192.76.8.70 (talk) 19:30, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. No evidence of significant coverage of the article subject in secondary reliable sources. AndyTheGrump (talk) 04:10, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Little more than spam. None of the references here demonstrate that this person is notable. Going through each site in turn:
- urdupoint poetry - A site that allows users to submit their own poetry for posting.
- poemhunter - A site that allows anyone with an account to upload their own poetry
- poetrysoup - Another site that allows users to upload and submit their own poetry
- allpoetry - Describes itself as an "online poetry writing group". Again a site that allows users to upload their own poetry.
- The three books are compilations of poems written by the article subject.
- None of the references here demonstrate any kind of coverage of this person at all, let alone significant, independent coverage in reliable sources. Everything here has been written by the article subject and are little more than compilation of his work. I didn't go through all the sources above. but they seem to be more of the same thing. The first site appears to be a content aggregator that scrapes content from all over the web (including, it seems reddit), hamariweb is another site that lets users email their poetry in for posting and a download link for an eBook obviously does not show notability. 192.76.8.70 (talk) 10:52, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per 192.76.8.70. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 11:57, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete – obvious promotional autobiography is obvious. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 09:23, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete--not notable, and the IP's analysis of the sourcing is valuable. The article (from which I just removed an "example") is a pretty sad attempt. Drmies (talk) 21:41, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete No indication of notability. The subject is not meeting WP:GNG. JoyStick101 (talk) 05:38, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per the IP's rundown of the links. Best, GPL93 (talk) 13:21, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
