Abdulkareem Khadr

It's sad that he was injured, but that does not make him notable for WP. Other than that, I can't see why he would warrant an article, other than perhaps being related to some people ‡ Єl Cid, Єl Caɱ̩peador  ᐁT₳LKᐃ  14:45, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Speedy Keep Nominator clearly failed to do WP:BEFORE. The article is missing important information about Khadr that now makes him notable. About a week ago, Khadr received a reported 8 million dollar settlement from Canadian president Trudeau because Khadr claimed he was tortured. As a result, Khadr has received substantial global news coverage, , and  are just some examples. Kges1901 (talk) 16:11, 19 July 2017 (UTC) I withdraw my !vote because I didn't realize that the article wasn't about Omar Khadr but about his relative. Kges1901 (talk) 16:13, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Khadr family. This also goes for all Khadrs other than Omar: Ahmed Khadr, Maha el-Samnah, Zaynab Khadr, Abdullah Khadr, Abdurahman Khadr. Only Ahmed and Abdullah might be notable on their own. Madg2011 (talk) 16:35, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete In Google, all I got was the page being nominated; In Nerwspapers, I got nothing; In Books, the top three returns were "books" produced by printing WP pages.-- Georgia Army Vet  Contribs  Talk  18:04, 19 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Redirect and selective merge to Khadr family. Heavily oversourced article lacking a clear claim to notability. WP:SIGCOV is lacking. Many sources merely mention this woman in article about her family, others are from minor, perhaps unreliable sources. Sourcing of assertion that he was wounded in a firefight is especially dicey.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:15, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
