Abdelghani Mustafa Abdelghani

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The first deletion discussion deleted mostly because the article was of poor quality but without prejudice to recreation. The current article is also of poor quality. Unfortunately, he seems to be at least a marginally notable Egyptian novelist - see http://viaf.org/viaf/69184887/. Barney the barney barney (talk) 18:03, 14 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete and salt (given repeated recreation) -- no evidence at all of any notability whatsoever. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 18:47, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
 * What was the basis for declining the speedy? This version is even worse than the one that was deleted at the first AFD. --B (talk) 20:11, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete & salt — Not sure what the external link in the nomination was for. I found zero reliable coverage (WP:GNG). I found some publications, but no verifiable citation or indication of import (WP:AUTHOR). JFHJr (㊟) 23:07, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
 * FWIW, it seems this content is leaking onto Wikipedia directly from a Youtube fan page. JFHJr (㊟) 23:28, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
 * See also: another similar Youtube page, titled "golden knight", the English translation of the WP:SPA's Arabic handle . Not a coincidence I bet. JFHJr (㊟) 23:51, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete and salt. Fails WP:AUTHOR, WP:BK, and WP:GNG.  A lot of people in the WP community are getting tired of this WP:PROMO being recreated all the time. Qworty (talk) 00:51, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
 * If the authority control link is accurate (i.e. if this person really is http://viaf.org/viaf/69184887/ ) then rename and stubify as per http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2008/apr/12/publishing.society etc. Otherwise delete and salt. Stuartyeates (talk) 03:45, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't see the connection between this subject and Alaa Al Aswany. He's had an article since 2005. I think this must have been a misidentification. JFHJr (㊟) 21:56, 15 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete Article was obviously written first in Arabic and machine translated into English. I cleaned up what I could, but it still doesn't look very good. The image used is also up for deletion .-- Auric    talk  23:44, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Not the same person as the linked authority control ID, subject fails WP:GNG apparently and WP:AUTHOR as well. Especially obnoxious vanity bio as well. § FreeRangeFrog croak 01:05, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
