Taher Shah → Eye to Eye (Taher Shah song) – While the song/music video appears to have been notable at one time (in June/July 2013) in terms of media coverage, the artist seems to not be notable at all (at best WP:BIO1E) and very little information can be found on him even in articles that discuss the song and its popularity (e.g. [1]). As it stands, this article is entirely about the song/video and is not a biographical article about the artist, and nothing substantial can be found to remedy this. Dwpaul ^Talk 15:50, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There is some evidence (e.g., [2] that the song and the artist are primarily "notable" (meaning known to the public, not necessarily wikinotable) due to the public's reaction to the song and the artist's image while performing it; this reaction seems to have been either disparaging or sarcastically, excessively complimentary. I am not in Pakistan, but it puts me in mind of a number of contestants on American Idol (and similar programs) who became (temporarily) "famous" not because of the quality of their performances but because they were so horribly, horribly bad. I suspect that much of what "hype" can be found concerning this artist and his video is actually sarcasm, but it is somewhat hard to tell, especially given that I have some cultural distance from Pakistan. However, this would tend to explain why very little has been published about him personally that would support a biographical article, and why he seems to have produced nothing else of note since the video. In any case, if this article remains, it should probably become an article about the song/video and public/critical reaction to it (an aspect currently not addressed at all). This would not preclude a future biographical article on the artist if biographical information can be found and it shows that he is in fact notable per WP:N.

User:Dwpaul can you please correct the template to Eye to Eye (Taher Shah song) due to Eye to Eye (Chaka Khan song) Eye to Eye (Go West song) and Eye to Eye (Ringo Starr song), thanks. As far as the move, a move to Eye to Eye (Taher Shah song) seems justified. In ictu oculi (talk) 05:31, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Production company[edit]

Unless you can provide a published, reliable source for the name of the production company associated with Shah, the name of the company will not appear in the article. See WP:CITE and WP:BURDEN, among other policies. If you (any of you) continue to add the name of a production company without a source, or to edit war over it, you will be blocked from editing.

This is not acceptable!!! Somebody is impersonating Taher Shah and you are continuously giving favors to him!!!! This is not acceptable at all!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.203.150.17 (talk) 01:18, 12 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We are doing no one any favors. Our policies are explained at the several links in my message above, and they apply to you and every other editor here equally, regardless of who they may or may not be or represent. Since there seems to be a dispute about the name of the production company, and there is no verifiable source for either version of the disputed information, the company will not be named here. General Ization ^Talk 01:21, 12 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ok! I am accepting your statement. But you should also look into this page that most of the content are without any reference. Somehow they are portraying Taher Shah a Musical genius or something which is not true. I would completely edit this article with proper citations which will show that Taher Shah actually a curse for the nation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.203.150.17 (talk) 01:24, 12 April 2016‎ (UTC)[reply]

But I must say that the true producer of this song is Blue Notes Production — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.203.150.17 (talk) 01:27, 12 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
