The subject is known for just one event so this falls under WP:BIO1E, which means the subject doesn’t really qualify for a standalone BLP, yet. Also clearly fails to meet GNG. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 19:34, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It's a one-event article. His involvement in ziplines is not relevant. David notMD (talk) 10:10, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not one event two events. See the article again.also he set up south Asia's longest and world highest Zipline. 39.41.141.132 (talk) 10:35, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, if not kept, this should redirect to 2023 Battagram cable car incident, where Swati is mentioned. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 15:51, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Are you suggesting we keep this BLP based on a blog piece? — Saqib (talk I contribs) 14:39, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  
  Might wanna go check out User Talk:Thekhyberboypk (whom this article’s creator was connected to at SPI). Metrix Pakistan? I dunno, man. You sure it’s got the editorial oversight an RS needs? The vibe I’m getting is someone with a COI making sources, just for this. Maybe the word I’m looking for, is WP:PRIMARY? MM (Give me info.) ^(Victories) 21:40, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to 2023 Battagram cable car incident: Only notable for one event. C F A 💬 20:41, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The flooding in Naran is a seperate event, so if there were a bit more coverage of Al Swati's involvement in that then I think there could in fact be a case for a standalone article. -- D'n'B-t -- 08:00, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like it meet the Notability Category. His involvement in Operations and services to Pakistan. 39.41.141.132 (talk) 10:34, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. If someone wants to improve this article they should
A) link it to the Naran flooding (or consider either making a page about that or adding that as a section on a relevant existing page) and

B) find any citation that mentions his presence in Naran independent of the Battagram incident (i.e., one published before Battagram happened). (Even a local Naran news site that mentions his name at the time would do it.) Alternatively,

C) find any other published reference to him (especially an older one) that doesn't mention Battagram. --Eliyahu S ^Talk 10:08, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If I'm reading it right, the Naram flooding happened a year after the Battagram incident - so that seems unlikely. I'd be happy with a clearer description of what his is involvement was with Naram. -- D'n'B-t -- 09:07, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The page creator Janabanigu (talk · contribs) is now blocked for socking—can this be speedy deleted under G5? — Saqib (talk I contribs) 14:43, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Stumbled across this, because the sock went to the Teahouse. I must be a glutton for punishment after the last time we both saw an article where this was suggested at the AFD of it. ([2]) Mind you, this one ain’t Pending at SPI, Kybher got the boot on 18th June and the article was made by the Possilikely sock on 12st August, so who knows if it qualifies this time! Bewp.

Comment The sentence "In addition, he managed to save hundreds of lives in Naran flood of August, 2024." is not true. A bridge was destroyed by a flood, forcing people to seek an alternative route out of Naran. People were inconvenienced, but no lives were lost and no lives were at risk.
