Could find no reliable sources online. 5 out of the 8 g-hits were Wikipedia-related. Samuel Tan 03:02, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I did the Google search as well and can't come up with anything indicating the article's claim that he is "famous." On the plus side, I checked and www.FakhirHiryanvi.com is available. TruthGal (talk) 17:06, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per nom and TruthGal. Did own search, found nothing. -kotra (talk) 22:56, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete because urdupoetry.com doesn't list him in their index of poets.[1] Google is not a good tool for Pakistani poets that died 30 years ago and I caution you not to use it as a reason for deletion if you cannot find anything.--Thomas.macmillan (talk) 14:27, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If it was on urdupoetry.com, it would be on Google too, since Google has indexed the urdupoetry.com website (proof). It's safe to assume that if it's publicly available on the web, you can probably find it on Google (with a few significant exceptions). -kotra (talk) 16:43, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
