I am writing to seek urgent assistance regarding an ongoing issue with an article on Wikipedia. The article titled "Ayaz Sheikh" is currently under discussion for deletion, and I'm deeply concerned about its potential removal.I firmly believe that the article provides valuable information about a notable Pakistani singer and musician. However, there seems to be some misunderstanding leading to the deletion discussion.I kindly request your support in ensuring that the article is not deleted and that any necessary changes are made to maintain its integrity and compliance with Wikipedia's guidelines. I am open to making necessary revisions to address any concerns raised during the discussion.Your prompt attention and assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
Best regards,

Please discuss on the relevant AfD page, and admins don't hold more power over any other editor when it comes to deciding whether an article should be deleted or not. Kindly refrain from canvassing. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 06:01, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

message: Seems like these are a fairly regular occurence here, people come here for help when it turns out they've been paying scammers for an article that is never going to materialize. Wondering if anyone else thinks it is worth coming up with a stock reponse to such threads, with links to relvant resources? Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 19:23, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: Most editors who help at this desk do provide a link to WP:SCAM. My view is that we should try show empathy for those who may have been scammed, so a personalised message is better than a stock response. Mike Turnbull (talk) 11:49, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
