Amirmahdi Farzin

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article about an Iranian Sports writer that doesn't exactly meet WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC. The sources provided are not WP:RS. A search on GNEWS both English and Persian turns up fewer than 3 passing mentions which do not qualify a page. Riteboke (talk) 12:33, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep Certainly meets WP:GNG because there are lots of Reliable sources in Persian (Farsi) referred to the article. A search must be in the subject's nickname wich is Iman Farzin (ایمان فرزین).--Po Dung (talk) 12:51, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment - previous AfD can be found at Articles for deletion/Iman Farzin. Is there anything that's changed in the last few months that now makes him notable? Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 17:04, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment: Note to reviewing Admin, the subject already created the page under Iman Farzin in the past which was deleted and according to discussion they were socks involved. So changing the name was just an obvious move to evade a block. There's also an article in draft here. Riteboke (talk) 18:09, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per consensus at last AFD. What has changed since? GiantSnowman 18:15, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete The article 99% describes what he wrote and cites him, i.e., it is not about this person. Lembit Staan (talk) 18:18, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - searching "ایمان فرزین" doesn't really yield anything that hasn't already been cited in this article. The biggest issue is the lack of depth in the coverage. Even if there were 100 trivial mentions cited in the article, this still wouldn't satisfy the requirement that WP:GNG has for the coverage to be significant, which means that it needs to address Farzin in enough detail for us to build a reasonable biography from the sources alone without having to add any original research to fill the space. This article is actually a textbook example of WP:REFBOMB, with the overwhelming majority of the articles/websites cited mentioning Farzin only once, either in a list of people or as a person quoted about some event or as someone that posted something on Instagram. There is nothing in my searches or within this article that establishes notability in the context of a global encyclopaedia. As with the previous article at Iman Farzin, I remain in favour of deletion. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 19:10, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt it's different enough from the prior version to avoid a G4, but still no indication to be found of meeting GNG. Star   Mississippi  20:56, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment as a professional spokesperson, he certainly gets a lot of media mentions - but there anything about him, rather than just what he's had to speak about? Note, this article has been deleted 4 times in the Farsi Wikipedia - see fa:ایمان_فرزین. Nfitz (talk) 23:07, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
