Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Saif Group
I've checked the 9 references added to the article. Normally Forbes is a poor source for references but in https://www.forbes.com/global/2009/0921/companies-pakistan-saif-group-drilling-amid-taliban.html this case there at first glance, appears to be a substantial independent article that meets the criteria for establishing notability. The first problem is that the article mostly concerns the activities of Saif Energy and not the holding company, Saif Group (the subject of this topic), although later on in the article the contributor switches to talk about Saif Group. The second problem is that halfway through the article, we start to see quotations from Javed Khan, an officer of the company. That would call into question the intellectual independence of the article and I would say it fails the criteria () on that basis. The http://nation.com.pk/lahore/03-Dec-2013/rs22-2m-for-balochistan-quake-survivors reference from nation.com.pk fails  as it is a mere mention in passing and has no indepth details. http://pakistan-stocks.blogspot.ie/2012/11/saif-saif-textile-mills-limited.html the pakistan-stocks.blogspot.ie reference fails for many reasons - it is a blog and therefore not a reliable source, but it is also a normal business listing and fails  too. Similarly, http://www.pagespak.com/company-textile_spinning_mills-saif_textile_mills_ltd_-islamabad-560304.html the pagespak.com reference fails  as it is a mere listing. The http://fp.brecorder.com/2013/09/201309141230946/ brecorder.com reference fails  and/or  as it is based on a company announcement and is not intellectually independent. The following three references fail as they are from the saifgroup website and therefore are a PRIMARY source. The https://www.dawn.com/news/1159590 dawn.com reference is an obituary for the "patron of Saif Group" and fails  as it is a mere mention-in-passing. Finally, https://www.pakistantoday.com.pk/2012/02/08/saif-group-of-companies-chairman-joins-pti/ the pakistantoday.com reference fails  as it is also a mention in passing. I'd be happy to reconsider my !vote if two references that meet the criteria for establishing notability can be found
