• Comment The outcome of this AFD will hinge on whether this institution is shown to be an "independently accredited degree-awarding institutions" or not and whether "independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists" (see WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES). Alternatively, if those criteria aren't met but other criteria in WP:CORP or WP:GNG are met, then the page will probably be kept. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 03:31, 29 August 2015 (UTC) struck per below davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 21:56, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Did you mean to comment on a different discussion, perhaps the related Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jamiah Islamiah Talimuddin Dabhel? Your observation would be highly pertinent there, but this is a biography... Worldbruce (talk) 19:31, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, exactly that one. I must've had both windows open at once. Striking comment. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 21:56, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - Sources can easily be found and added, and "promotional" content can easily be removed. These are not grounds for deletion. Subject is very notable for his role in Pakistani politics and his Islamic scholarly contributions. --Axiom292 (talk) 06:06, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Notable biography. Can be improved by adding references. Umais Bin Sajjad (talk) 04:53, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
