[edit] Maulana Ibne Hasan Nonaharvi

Doesn't assert sufficient notability KeithD (talk) 21:07, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

I agree that Google isn't always a good indicator of notability, but the article in its current form doesn't assert any notability, it just says he was a religious scholar. If you know more, then by all means improve the article. KeithD (talk) 15:30, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Unfortunately I haven't heard of him, so I can't contribute and I'd prefer to abstain from voting. The main problem with this is that the article was written by an anon, and he has not revealed much about this person. But a google search on the term Sultan Madaris reveals that that it is a reputed seminary and they have produced many notable people. He could be one, but as you rightly said, anon hasn't mentioned anything out of the ordinary. He could have been as notable as Syed Kalbe Hussain, a cleric from the same city.

• Delete - Not a single Google hit, with quotes. :( Is that name spelled right? If it isn't, then I will consider changing my vote. I feel pretty silly for thinking it wasn't in english earlier... --Phroziac ([[User

Changed to Keep - "Maulana Ibne Hasan" gets some google hits, all in Urdu(?). I suspect he is notable, just not in the west. --Phroziac ^(talk) 18:44, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, at least until someone can research it a bit more fully - there looks like there may be good reasons why someone famous for reciting urdu might not get many google hits. Trollderella 00:31, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete I tried a number of variations on the name, including correcting the spelling of ibn and cannot come up with a thing. Not many google hits, maybe. None? Unlikely. Author needs to post sources. Dottore So 01:37, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• Strong Keep Sultanul Madaris confirms his prominence in a field that is under-represented in Wiki and Google. May have been the author of Chaudaa Baseerat Afroze Majaalis Dlyons493 15:42, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
