Amir Sarkosh

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable at best, a hoax at worst. Article makes claims - some I've removed - that the player took part in events/finals that they did not. Lists off tournament finals they didn't compete at, and has a list of events listed as winning, where they only competed at. Never turned professional; which is the SNG.

 * Delete: Many of the sources are not even reliable sources.  Language is out of the question, but this topic ultimately fails WP:GNG.  See this Bing search... the first page is just links to other sites.  This news search shows only one trivial mention which means the topic fails WP:NPERSON. Aasim 07:50, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:CSD (Sockpuppet investigations/ArmanAfifeh LTA) but I'm glad that there is also support for deletion on purely its own merits, as bad-faith content and a non-notable (at best) subject need not wait for a formal SPI conclusion. DMacks (talk) 14:49, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment I see the socks have found this AFD. DMacks (talk) 06:04, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment indeed G5 material (creator has been blocked as a sock), but if folks would prefer to let the AfD run I'm happy to let that happen as well. For reference, I think everyone who has tried to add articles about this person has been a sock of Sockpuppet_investigations/ArmanAfifeh. GeneralNotability (talk) 15:56, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment It's worth checking the spelling "Amir Sarkhosh" if this hasn't already been done. A search for "'Amir Sarkhosh' snooker" on NewsBank returns 196 results, but no doubt most if not all of these will be trivial mentions. It's a shame that the runner-up at the 2017 IBSF World Snooker Championship may fail GNG. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 17:03, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * keep:I agree with @BennyOnTheLoose includes the comfort of WP:GNG.But in the end, it does not fail.The real name of the person is "Amir Sarkhosh" who should be transferred. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.62.236.236 (talk) 18:45, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
