Let me know what is causing you to nominate this article for deletion and I will do my best to clear any confusion?  Haniya01 ( talk ) 22:20, 29 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I agree that when searching for this person on Google, nothing comes up - I had to go to history archive centers (for example, British Library, etc.) in the UK and pay some money to view the old newspapers and books from 1850s to 1930s.  Is there a rule on wikipedia that states that sources (like archive newspapers and books) that a person must pay to see, cannot be referenced and that this fails notability?  Haniya01 ( talk ) 11:38, 30 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi User4edits, What parts of the article caused you to think that the article failed the Notability and that the article is Unencyclopedic?  Haniya01 ( talk ) 22:30, 29 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Haniya01 The subject (individual) is not notable as explained above by Oaktree, and the entire article is pretty much unencyclopedic, and looks like created by someone having a close connection with the subject.  User4edits ( talk ) 09:19, 30 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for explaining, I was the one who wrote it btw, I agree that when searching for this person on Google, nothing comes up - I had to go to history archive centers (for example, British Library, etc.) in the UK and pay some money to view the old newspapers and books from 1850s to 1930s.  Is there a rule on wikipedia that states that sources (like archive newspapers and books) that a person must pay to see, cannot be referenced and that this fails notability?  In regards to the second point, perhaps the writing style of the paper needs to be changed to make encyclopedic?

Thanks, User4edits ( talk ) 12:48, 30 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for sharing all this, I am still in the process of uncovering more evidence like specific names of books, official government letters, etc. on all this.  This process can take months, especially since the British Library recently experienced a big cyber attack and their whole system is down.  Do you think I should just delete all my information for now and get this Aurangzeb page back to its 2019 format (you can probably see how it was gonna be deleted back then but the decision was to keep it)?  Haniya01 ( talk ) 14:52, 30 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Hello, I am no authority here.  Wikipedia is Consensus based.  However, you seem to deviating the subject, what is being asked is the following Can you explain why this person is notable as per WP:NBIO ?  Thanks, User4edits ( talk ) 15:11, 30 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you for highlighting the question, here is my response: According to academic journals - during the 1860s-1900s - it was very hard for Indian origin people to enter Indian Civil Service (aka British Indian Government), particularly higher rank positions like Extra Assistant Commissioner.  In fact, there are articles, books and journals from many places on how there was a tension between British rule and the Indian people.  Take this statistic, for example, between 1871 and 1878, only 5 out of 46 Indian candidates successfully passed the entrance exam for Indian Civil Service.  Based on these challenging circumstances, Aurangzeb Khan (a person of Indian origin) was able to get that higher rank position, Extra Assistant Commissioner - his rank is mentioned in this book (Gazetteer of The Jhelum District 1904. Punjab Government. pp. 103–107. ISBN 969-35-1558-7) Also, he got that Khan Bahadur title award ( https://books.google.com.sa/books?id=zykYAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA17&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false ) From the articles I found there was a major project to colonize 2 million acres of land (which would be left barren) - which Aurangzeb was a part of (I am in the research process of finding more books, government letters, etc. for evidence) I know you shared the link that newspapers are not usually valid for sources, but this newspaper called the Civil & Military Gazette was only for Government and Military news.  Note that the Civil and Military Gazette are the ones who originally published the book I shared above titled Gazetteer of The Jhelum District.  1904.  Haniya01 ( talk ) 18:20, 30 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply  ] 1. Getting into civil service is not notable, unless he was the first Indian to get into Indian Civil Service  .  2. An additional/ancillary subordinate to the Commissioner (which heads a small district) is not notable.  Gazette of a district looks like a WP:PSTS , nonetheless, I looked into the gazetteer you mentioned , and the subject is no way mentioned from p103-107, but I only found an obscure running mention among other names at pg.  107.  3. I never said newspaper is not a valid source, rather it is a good one provided if it's WP:SIGCOV , what I said, and will repeat extensively please see What Wikipedia is not , among others, it is not a family or clan archive.  4. As for Khan Bahadur title, it was a low-level local title granted to many, not a national award such as those coming within Order of the British Empire .  Finally, These do not answer the question of WP:NBIO .  User4edits ( talk ) 04:50, 31 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Please look again at the gazetteer I mentioned ( https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.105610/page/n127/mode/2up ) On page 107, it says "the principal Mair headmen are Khan Bahadar Chaudri Aurangzeb Khan, retired Extra Assistant Commissioner, of Chakwal, and his brother Abbas Khan.."  After that there are 10 other names mentioned.  Also, listen we are both on the same page in the sense of enjoying to ensure things are done in accordance to guidelines.  As I mentioned earlier, I am in the middle of the process of collecting evidence (book names, Government letters, etc.) and that the British Library experienced a major cyber attack and this has slowed down my process for months.   Even though Aurangzeb Khan was just a Assistant Extra Commissioner, his impactful work caused the British Government to treat him like first/second class Military Grantee and award him accordingly.   Again, I am in a middle of a process of collecting more evidence so here is a resolution.  You can delete the page for now and later (in the future), I will re-write this page on Wiki and I will even invite you to come and check my page and all that evidence.

Thanks, ✗ plicit 12:48, 5 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : On three observations I made, kindly don't disappoint because I don't go for delete all the time.  1. Comparing with 2019 revision and this current version, and per @ User4edits : mentioned before, the user added most of the information with citations which are failing WP:N .  But still, I think we must keep it.  2.The main thing we can do is cleanup the mess, yet keeping some valuable information, if passed per WP:N.  3. The user seems to be much defending that normal users does on defending.  So if they are connected to the person, kindly follow the WP:COI and do the necessary measures.  And if you want to expand it, kindly follow WP:GNG , WP:N and the content along with citation, which will be verified by an experienced user.  User4edits, correct me if I'm wrong.  CSMention269 ( talk ) 15:55, 7 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete .  Major problem here is not just notability but the sources itself that incline more towards unreliability.  See WP:RS .  Even the verification is impossible.  Links provided do not have any mention on the subject.  Even a simple Google search does not give any detail about this subject's background or enough for this subject notable enough to have a page of his own.

It's been pieced together from primary sources and deductions.  It ought to be published somewhere; the world really needs a place for this sort of article, but it's not Wikipedia.  We are an encyclopaedia, a tertiary source, and can only have an article on him after he's been discussed by historians in secondary sources.  Elemimele ( talk ) 21:10, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you @ Elemimele .  Even though you are voting 'Delete', you did this in a polite and respectful manner.  People like you restore my hope for Wikipedia.  I was shocked by the disrespect @ User4edits showed to me earlier.  This person said I was lying about Aurangzeb Khan's name being mentioned on page 107 in this book ( https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.105610/page/n127/mode/2up ) and calling it a 'obscure running mention among other names'.  Then, I called User4edits out by directly quoting the line where it mentions Aurangzeb Khan's name, "the principal Mair headmen are Khan Bahadar Chaudri Aurangzeb Khan, retired Extra Assistant Commissioner, of Chakwal, and his brother Abbas Khan.."  User4edits did not even apologize for what he/she said.  Haniya01 ( talk ) 22:35, 23 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] 1 Secondary Source Found : Thanks to the explanations about what a secondary source is by @ Elemimele and @ DarmaniLink , I found one secondary source that mentions Aurangzeb Khan.  This article was published in 2015.  Is this source acceptable?  https://www.dawn.com/news/1165156 This secondary source is about Aurangzeb Khan's son and how he used his dad's land/house to establish a college in a rural city called Chakwal.  This article says "His father Raja Aurangzeb Khan served on top civil positions during the British rule. His father also served as first colonisation officer during the establishment of Lyalpur city...All his life, he patronised Islamia High School Chakwal which was founded by his father Raja Aurangzeb Khan...Currently the grand bungalow built by his father, Raja Auranzeb Khan, is the oldest preserved building in the city...The bungalow which has 52 rooms and a spacious lawn used to serve as the court of Raja Auranzeb Khan who was also appointed the honorary magistrate."  Earlier User4edits said that, 'Getting into civil service is not notable, unless he was the first Indian to get into Indian Civil Service.'  Well, this secondary source article states that Aurangzeb Khan served as the first colonization officer alongside other key aspects like being a honorary Magistrate .  Lastly, here is a Wikipedia page about the list of Indian people in Indian Civil Service ( List of Indian members of the Indian Civil Service ).  This list shows Wikipedia pages about people who were also magistrates such as Brajendranath De and Maharajadhiraj Sir Rameshwar Singh Bahadur .

On PDF page 50-51 (book page 34-35) it says, ". ..when Captain Popham Young was leaving the colony in 1899. The Raja referred to is Choudhri Aurangzeb Khan, Khan Bahadur, then Assistant Colonization Officer " - this ballad shows how these three established the city of Lyallpur (current day Faisalabad , the industrial city and 3rd largest city of Pakistan).  Pakistan Government Website for the 'Brief History of Faisalabad' ( https://faisalabad.dc.lhc.gov.pk/PublicPages/HistoryOfDistrict.aspx ).  " The first colonisation officer Aurangzeb Khan made sure that no individual in this district owned more than 25 squares (625 acres (2.53 km 2 )) of land. The merit or method of allotting the land was to check each individual's hand who was applying for some land, and if the hands showed that individual had worked hard in the past, only then was land given to him, which has led to a district where there aren't any big land owners, as the land has been equally distributed amongst hard working men and it is their hard work that has led to Faisalabad becoming the third richest district in Pakistan. "  This paragraph shows how Aurangzeb Khan's land allocation system allowed Faisalabad to become 3rd richest district in Pakistan.  Also, that he is the first colonization officer (this point is also mentioned in the Dawn article).  Pakistan Government Book called 'District Gazetteers Faisalabad 2021' ( https://bor9.pitb.gov.pk/system/files/Faisalabad.pdf ).  It repeats the same paragraph as my bullet point 2 and on page 225, it mentions 2 of Aurangzeb Khan's sons - Raja Sher Muhammad Khan and Raja Akbar Khan.

On page 13 it says, “ My grandfather was in the employ of Chaudhry Raja Aurangzeb Khan, one of the descendants of Chaudhry Subhan Kuli Khan, and later on his son Chaudhry Raja Sarfraz Khan as administrator of their estates in Lyallpur (now Faisalabad, Pakistan) area of British Punjab around 1900…The father of Chaudhry Raja Sarfraz Khan, Chaudhry Raja Aurangzeb Khan, built a colonial bungalow on the flatlands, facing the Kot, south of old Chakwal city in 1873. The house is still used as a family home of his descendants and remains the oldest building in the area and seat of the Chaudhry’s of Chakwal, sometimes referred to as Chaudhrials. ”.  Raja Sarfraz Khan, also known as Raja Muhammad Sarfraz Khan, is mentioned in the Dawn article I shared in my comments above.  That Dawn article also mentions how the bungalow is the oldest building in Chakwal and that this was built in 1873.

On PDF page 20 (book page 17), it says, " During the minority of my brothers and I, Rahimyar Khan managed the tribal affairs in our stead. Our property was placed under the management of Khan Bahadur Aurangzeb Khan, a Punjab civil service officer, who reported directly to the District Deputy Commissioner, who was our official guardian. ".  In the Wikipedia Aurangzeb Khan article, look under Section Early Career and Education, Sub-Section Social Welfare.  There I mention how Aurangzeb Khan looked after an estate with the Deputy Commissioner.  Journal/Newspaper : The The Khalsa Advocate (September 21, 1907) -Source: South Asia Open Archives ( https://www.jstor.org/stable/saoa.crl.35194545?seq=1 ).  On page 2, 2nd column (in the 2nd paragraph), it says, "... Raja Aurangzeb of Chakwal is a retired Government officer (probably an E. A. C) who wields enormous influence in the ilaqa. Three of his relatives are said to have been amoung the incendiaries. There is little wonder therefore that Sheikh Fazal Shah, the Inspector deputed to make inquires, postponed the statements of the aggrieved Sikhs, after they were half taken down until the arrival of Raja Aurangzeb who was away from Chakwal.

I hope that in the next few days, I gradually update each section (for example, Background, Early Career and Education, etc.).  I will respond to this comment when I am done with this process and/or if I have any question about this process.  Haniya01 ( talk ) 18:37, 28 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Draftify - Give the author a chance to make it notable, and for the article to be cleaned up.  Deleting it won't free up space, so there's little reason not to.  This article is extremely well written and frankly it just needs some secondary sources to establish notability.  It should have to go through AfC however before returning to mainspace, with a special note that there must be secondary sources.  DarmaniLink ( talk ) 22:59, 23 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you @ DarmaniLink .  I am the author of this page.  Even if this page becomes a draft, @ User4edits will not allow it to be published.  I am saying this based on 2 things User4edits has done: During Jan. 2024, I created another page about Jehan Khan (Aurangzeb Khan's father) and submitted it for publication; HOWEVER, User4edits came in and stopped it from being published and accused me for lying and saying that Jehan Khan is not a Raja - I said Jehan Khan was known as either Raja Jehan Khan or Choudri Jehan Khan.  Please look at my response to Elemimele's comment where I describe another example of when User4edits accused me for lying about Aurangzeb Khan's name being mentioned in a published book.  Haniya01 ( talk ) 23:32, 23 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Based on these 2 points, I do not trust User4edits.  If this page about Aurangzeb Khan becomes a draft, is it possible for me to ask either you @ DarmaniLink and/or @ Elemimele to check the draft and see if its good for publication?  Haniya01 ( talk ) 23:34, 23 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] You could be a bit more civil towards user4edits, but, yeah, sure, I'll check it.  But just so you know, I'll actually check it.  :) If it needs more secondary sources, or the sources aren't clear enough, I'll tell you.  DarmaniLink ( talk ) 23:45, 23 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you so much!  Haniya01 ( talk ) 00:18, 24 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] You could also go through AFC after and get a far better opinion as well as instructions than I could give.  DarmaniLink ( talk ) 00:53, 24 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I would have no objection to draftification and would also recommend AfC; it's slow, but it's a good way to get help and an independent evaluation.
