- Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being "expected" candidates in elections they haven't won yet — our notability standards for politicians require the holding of political office, not mere candidacy for it. But nothing else here demonstrates that he has preexisting notability for any other reason, and the sources are entirely about Siraj Khan's expulsion from the PTI while entirely failing to mention Khattak's name at all. So no prejudice against recreation on or after election day 2018 if he wins the seat, but nothing here qualifies him for an article today. Also, WP:COI as the article was created by User:Khattak adamzai. Bearcat ( talk) 17:36, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
