• He has not stand up for any elections but held posts which are vital for any political parties. He is active in managing multiple political parties and its people's profile and creating an election strategy. This page need not to be deleted. -Hamza Ghanchi 12:35, 19 February 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by હમઝા ઘાંચી ( talk • contribs)

— Note to closing admin: હમઝા ઘાંચી ( talk • contribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.

Unless he is the president of a major political party, any other post does not automatically mean that an article can be created. See WP:NPOL to understand the requirements. DBig Xrayᗙ 14:59, 19 February 2020 (UTC) reply

• Delete Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. S. M. Nazmus Shakib ( talk) 14:53, 19 February 2020 (UTC) reply

But the stated person falls under the political person who has significant press coverage(RULE:Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage.). I have mentioned online news link to verify the information in the article. Kindly remove the Deletion Tag. Here are the additional reference links for proving significance. ^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}- -Hamza Ghanchi 05:44, 20 February 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by હમઝા ઘાંચી ( talk • contribs)

It is common for such politicians to have these kind of passing mentions, sadly these are not enough for a separate article. -- DBig Xrayᗙ 07:01, 20 February 2020 (UTC) reply

• Delete Fails WP:NPOL. Most references have just passing mentions.- Nizil ( talk) 06:36, 20 February 2020 (UTC) reply

It does have the notable references as not always in a title tag but he is highly cited by major news papers, Please remove the deletion tag as this article has notability. examples: ^{[1] [2]} - Hamza Ghanchi 06:31, 21 February 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by હમઝા ઘાંચી ( talk • contribs)

These are passing mentions and mentions of name, these kind of sources do not make it notable. we would need news articles/magazines that talk about the person in great detail. If you cannot find them, it means the person does not deserve an article. see WP:GNG-- DBig Xrayᗙ 07:13, 21 February 2020 (UTC) reply

• Delete fails WP:NPOL and you need more than just passing mentions to prove WP:GNG. Best, GPL93 ( talk) 01:08, 24 February 2020 (UTC) reply

Deletion tag is not required, there are many reliable news resources and references which proves notability of the stated person. Here are another links and official website of Parthesh Patel which will derive more authenticity of the article on Wikipedia. Also note that article is still going to be expanded with more reliable information. Deletion is not required at this time. - Hamza Ghanchi 07:50, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Both of these are passing mentions in routine campaign coverage and Counterview, which is a website where users submit their own stories, is definitely not a reliable source. Patel's personal website is neither an independent nor a reliable source of information and does absolutely nothing to establish notability. GPL93 ( talk) 14:27, 24 February 2020 (UTC) reply

There are multiple citation which clearly states the notability of the person(in main article). Multiple news sources are available to prove the credibility of the stated person even on the live article. I think, deletion Tag is not required if the person is having enough credible information on open news media. I can expand the article further with more information. - Hamza Ghanchi 06:35, 25 February 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by હમઝા ઘાંચી ( talk • contribs)

Can we please keep this article as of now, it is going to be expanded soon. - Hamza Ghanchi 08:21, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

Please see WP:MERCY. I have reviewed the sources again and My opinion stands unchanged. We cannot possible have articles on people who are not notable. If he becomes MLA / MP. then you can start an article. not before that. ⋙–DBig Xrayᗙ 08:36, 26 February 2020 (UTC) reply
