Pakistani prank YouTuber with more than 3 million subscribers. The only non-trivial coverage is about him having to pay some money because he apparently didn't pay his taxes (see [1] for example). BilletsMauves (talk) 16:54, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete nothing notable found, youtubers generally aren't notable here, being a tax fraud (or not) isn't notable. Only sources are listings of him appearing at various functions. Oaktree b (talk) 04:35, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- Seems like it may be a weak keep. He has a significant amount of coverage, even outside of Pakistan: for example, in a fairly large, English language UAE-based newspaper, and in Pakistan's largest newspaper. Tax evasion may not be enough to meet notability requirements, but the fact that his case got national and international attention indicates notability. He was also listed in another national newspaper's "Top 5 male social media celebrities of 2017" and his following has grown substantially since then. This is what I found in English coverage; I did not even look at Urdu coverage, of which there is surely much more.
