Keep The article's current source basically states it was the most important Pakistani label in the decade of the 2000s, and had a virtual monopoly on the market at that time. The article may need to be supplemented with non-English sources, but...if this isn't notable, I doubt any Pakistani label is (which should give us pause).

I don't think it's a language issue, Chubbles. A search for فائر ریکرڈز in Urdu produced nothing of interest. M Imtiaz (talk · contribs) 00:00, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I counted nearly 30 currently popular Pakistani pop singers that are signed up with Fire Records (Pakistan) recording label – all of them are already listed at the existing article. There was already a working newspaper reference at this article. I'll add some more references tomorrow. Certainly a notable recording label in Pakistan!

Comment Found and added two more newspaper references today. I do not want to close my eyes to worldwide changes in everything including in the music industry. My argument for my 'Keep' vote above is based on the logic that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia which also preserves history and the past practices in the music industry. For example, one can very easily find His Master's Voice article of the British music retailer Victor Talking Machine Company trademark and/or "His Master's Voice" (HMV) company with the famous logo of a dog listening to music from an old gramophone vinyl record player. Later RCA Records got involved in it and so on...

So I did what I could to the above article. Somewhat expanded it, has 3 newspaper references now. Made it a 'Stub article' for now, if someone wishes to expand it further. Ngrewal1 (talk) 18:13, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Ngrewal1. Passes notability. Mar4d (talk) 18:48, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
