Obviously this is foreign and before the Internet but my searches simply found nothing good and even searching with the Arabic name simply found these links so I'm notifying past editors, and. SwisterTwister  talk  06:37, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

 * there would presumably be articles in Syrian newspapers at the time of his death, but I wouldn't know how to find them, let alone read them.  DGG ( talk ) 20:40, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 16:31, 22 September 2015 (UTC) Keep A better transliteration of his name is "Abd al-Razzaq al-Dandashi". Editors will have better luck using that name in a google or google books search. I rewrote the article with a reliable source. It needs more RS, but either way the subject is certainly notable enough to warrant an article. He was a co-founder and secretary-general of a political group that at one point held great influence in Syrian politics and many of whose members went on to become major Syrian political figures. --Al Ameer (talk) 22:17, 27 September 2015 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep Seems to be fairly high number of Google Books hits concerning middle east history, history of the ba'ath party in Syria in 1932-1935 and linked to the League of Nationalist Action article. Seems genuine, passes WP:GNG. scope_creep (talk) 08:38, 29 September 2015


 * Comment Once this is settled (and I'm sure the decision will be "Kept"), I will move the article to the much more common English transliteration: Abd al-Razzaq al-Dandashi. --Al Ameer (talk) 22:55, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
