message: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No._1_Squadron,_Indian_Air_Force in "Burma campaign" section which I pointed out earlier, does not cohere with rest of the paragraphs (although Trueblood786 made an effort again) and an image "Ground Subject Cup RIAF" which was basically awarded to airforce staff. This could further be substanciated by him joing Forest Services after the worldwar II due to the fact that no1 squadron ceased to exist. As climed on his wiki page, he migrated to Pakistan after partition and joined "Forest Services". I therefore, recommend the editing of this section.

message: Regarding Ghulam Ahmad on the section "Philanthropy" where it sates as I quote "He gave scholarships for education of residents of Poonch District, particularly members of the Sudhan tribe, resulting in hundreds of graduates in engineering and medicine", can someone elaborate it further.

replies: text: Riztech you can look up the names of his children and call them.  Look up Nevada Petroleum Society.  It has the phone number.  Also you can check with Doctor Tufail at CMH Rawalakot.  He was awarded a scholorship.  Call the Rawalakot High School they have a scholorship for over 30 years.

thread_title:  References 

message: @Sajjad Altaf First thing as you were canvassed here you should have told Adnan1216 that how it is problematic and shouldn't be done. Secondly, you are cherry picking a single sentence out of context to establish notability but that won't work, as the sentence you quote "Sources may encompass published works in all forms and media, and in any language." is actually used to define a source. And by "source" it means a published work about the subject, not by the subject. So your argument that he has published a book does not establish notability. -- SMS  Talk 21:30, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I won't discuss further whether it was canvassing or not. It seems you know a lot already. The main topic here is the removal of notability tag. -- SMS  Talk 21:46, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

text: I was asked for an opinion. I think the engineering/business career is possibly notable enough. But there is no point fighting over the tagging, or arguing here about notability ,  because if anyone wants to challenge the notability , the way to do it is  with an AfD, and the community will decide. Based on my years of experience at AfD, I can predict that a reasonably modest article is likely to be accepted; an excessive one will certainly not be. The relevant policy is NOT MEMORIAL. If it looks like a family or professional tribute, it will be deleted. The best way of coping with this is to improve the article before it gets listed for deletion. The improvements needed here is further documentation  about the important parts of his career and the remove of extraneous material. Details about his military service or his relatives are in the category of irrelevant material, and, as I wish to help the article if possible, I will remove them. I would very strongly advise not restoring the material I remove--it will inevitably lead to deletion.  DGG ( talk ) 23:35, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think the photo you just removed should have stayed, i believe that was a photo, cannot tell without restoring, is it possible that you can restore that, following:
, i see it in the preview, his name is there on it, it's about him and it should be there, i will appreciate it if you can restore it
 Thank you,  you can change the description if you find it inappropriate. Sajjad Altaf (talk) 00:04, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
