  • delete - no independent coverage. Fails WP:GNG. Störm (talk) 15:29, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
  • keep - He is very famous journalist from KPK. If we have a look on facebook, one of his fan page has 709,000 like and another has about 380k keeping in mind that majority of the people from this region do not use facebook. He runs a show "Khyber watch" on Khyber tv which is very famous (to prove it has hundred of thousands of views just on youtube). This prove he is definitely famous and has a large fan base. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think he is a famous and important figure and which means he meets WP:JOURNALIST. We have to keep in mind that this region is still developing and many of the sources might be in urdu/pashto. Saadkhan12345 (talk) 19:43, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

:: As per policy, the number of fans or followers a subject has on FB/Twitter or YouTube is irrelevant in a deletion discussion. --Saqib (talk) 06:59, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

:: Read WP:FAME. Störm (talk) 14:40, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

:::Failure to meet WP:JOURNALIST doesn't mean it should be deleted.

:::Not easy to find source for obvious reason. Articles of similar nature have more sources in western countries than developing regions. They might also be in local languages. Saadkhan12345 (talk) 01:43, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

::::{{ping|Saadkhan12345}} Why don't you establish the notability by providing the links to sources in local languages. --Saqib (talk) 04:11, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

  • Keep- He is famous for exposing crimes like Iqrar ul Hassan, his show "Khyber watch" having 400+ episodes.

::If you click [https://www.google.com.pk/search?q=Yousaf+Jan+Utmanzai&rlz=1C1CHWA_enPK717PK717&oq=Yousaf+Jan+Utmanzai&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60l3&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 here] and scroll down you will see in the suggestion searches related to Yousaf Jan Utmanzai "yousaf jan utmanzai wikipedia" it means that there should be a Wikipedia article on him, as people per searches and demands. Wisal Ahmad (talk) 15:16, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

:::Seriously {{ping|Wisal Ahmad}} ? is this your logic to keep this page? --Saqib (talk) 15:22, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

:::You may please read WP:NJOURNALIST (i.e. WP notability criteria). Störm (talk) 18:35, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

::{{ping|Saqib}} I did'nt mean that as you thinking. I mean only notable persons having a Wikipedia articles, and he (Yousaf Jan Utmanzai) is notable so that's why people searching for a Wikipedia artcile? And he is a Pashto language journalist so he is confined to only KPK region. And only KP region know him well. Thanks! Wisal Ahmad (talk) 03:31, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

:::As I said above, you need to establish his notability by providing the links to sources in local languages which discuss the subject. --Saqib (talk) 07:05, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
