Extremely biased article. I would recommend deletion of this page and adding a section to Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan. Controversies section states that "Islami Jamiat-e-Talaba has been continuously speaking against campus violence in the name of ethnicity" yet three of the four sources are clearly *about* members of IJT carrying out violence; many claims throughout the article have no sources; uses QUORA as a source and more TokiSixskins (talk) 03:22, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2023 March 2. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 03:49, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment/question. It seems you think this article could be and should be significantly edited and improved. Is that accurate? CT55555(talk) 04:14, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

essentially yes, but in my opinion everything beyond the lead section would need to be entirely rewritten to be make the article neutral TokiSixskins (talk) 05:22, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify and use WP:AFC to submit it again. The article should not be on Wikipedia as is. Fad Ariff (talk) 13:01, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This is an article started in September 2004 about a notable organisation in Pakistan. The topic is covered by reliable third-party sources that can be found by searching on Google scholar, Google books, etc. At least some of the citations in the article are to newspapers from Pakistan. There is no valid reason for deleting the article.-- Toddy1 (talk) 15:15, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP This article is supported by 25 References from almost all major English-language newspapers of Pakistan and many independent international sources. This is a reckless nomination where the nominator obviously wanted to turn a blind eye to all the valid sources and 'cherry-pick' one bad source and get this article deleted. Religious parties (all religions including Islam) are also allowed to have articles on Wikipedia along with non-religious secular parties and individuals.

Comment Seems to me this was the nominator's first day of editing on Wikipedia after looking at his Talk page and he brings this article to the AfD Forum?...Ngrewal1 (talk) 19:25, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The subject is notable and passes WP:GNG. The article definitely needs some clean up, but deletion is not clean up. Insight 3 (talk) 07:49, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: There is coverage from various credible sources to meet GNG. AFD process is not intended for cleaning up Akevsharma (talk) 16:10, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I spent some time carefully going through the references and conclude that they constitute WP:SIGCOV by WP:RS, establishing WP:NOTABILITY and satisfying WP:GNG. The argument for deletion would be considerably stronger if WP:GNG wasn’t met. However, it is met, and I think the best thing to do is keep the article.
