- Delete as a Lieutenant General he meets #2 of WP:SOLDIER, however that is just a presumption of notability and they must have WP:SIGCOV, but I'm not seeing that for his military career. There are a few minor book and news references of his role on the Pakistan Cricket Board which I don't think satisfy WP:GNG. Mztourist ( talk) 04:51, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Clear pass of WP:SOLDIER and also clearly notable in his cricket post. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 14:30, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Regardless of his controversial career in the Pakistani military and then in the key position of chairman, Pakistan Cricket Board from 1999 to 2003, Tauqir Zia has a long professional career. News coverage for him is very easily available in international and Pakistani news media. Added Dawn (newspaper) of Pakistan and The Hindu (newspaper) of India references to the article today and somewhat expanded it. Ngrewal1 ( talk) 17:58, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

- Keep The problem is the lack of content in the article, not the subject of the article. He was Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations during the 1999 Kargil War (WP:MILPEOPLE #4), as a Lieutenant General WP:MILPEOPLE #2 also applies. His role as chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board and how he dealt with allegations of corruption (also not mentioned in the article) are notable and covered by reliable sources.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:54, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
