Jinnahbhai_Poonja[edit]
Article consists only of a photo. Possible copyvio. Anyone heard of him? Radiant! 09:28, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete he's the father of the founder of Pakistan. That said, relatives of notable people are not necessarily notable in their own right. Also, this might just be me, but does that photo look... wrong somehow? Like it's been retouched by watercolours or something? It's kind of eerie. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 10:53, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. A picture by itself is not enough for an article. Carrp | Talk 17:06, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Mohammad Ali Jinnah. I think the picture is just a low quality scan of a daguerreotype. Indeed, only claim to fame appears to be his son, however it might be preferable to redirect instead of delete. Let's not forget to remove the links to this article in that one if we redirect! ;) HyperZonk 17:14, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, not encyclopedic, no context, not an article. Comment: Yeah, it looks retouched, lots of family portrait photos a century ago were retouched like this, often ineptly, which yields the charactertistically disturbing look. Wyss 18:11, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as above. Brookie 19:04, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, not notable, article as it stands is un-encyclopaedic, possible copyright violation. Megan1967 00:55, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
