The result was no consensus. While I see WP:TNT as an editorial choice rather than an administrative one, a strong, policy-based argument was expressed here by many that the page is a POV fork. However, just as many, even after discarding those clearly canvassed here, validly claimed that the topic is notable, as evidenced by sources, and that POV issues can be fixed without deletion. This close is without prejudice against merging with an existing NPOV-written article, or rewriting from scratch, both of which can be discussed on the article's Talk page. The article is currently semi-protected per WP:ARBPAK, so things should move in a more productive direction now. Hopefully, the page will be in good enough shape (or properly merged) in two months that we won't have to go through another AfD for it. Owen× ☎ 12:45, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

The originator of this article has been blocked for sockpuppetry, and the content from previous socks has been shown to be biased, lacking in neutrality as they admit in their unblock request that they were here with a political agenda of exposing something instead of building encyclopedia. These subjects are already addressed in articles on Military coups in Pakistan, and each election article discusses allegations of rigging such as here. Several other editors have also expressed concerns, such as content failing verification. With such a vast article, it's impractical for anyone to meticulously review every piece of content against numerous sources. Therefore, it would be wise to delete it, saving volunteers countless hours. WP:TNT might apply here. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 16:25, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
* Keep. FWIW,
WP:TNT is an essay and
article content does not determine notability. What matters is that the topic is notable as independent coverage exists and the article has already been reviewed by @
Bastun:
[2]. It is very lazy to say that just because the article is long, so I won't review it. I'd suggest to revert it back to
the version Bastun reviewed.
Thanks.

This article should help. It is more of a list and meets
WP:NLIST as well.
