Ayman Ahmed Khalaf

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Notability per WP:AUTHOR dubious. Main author User:طلال بن زيد is a single-purpose account (claims to be an admin, but isn't as far as I can see), possibly in a conflict of interest. bender235 (talk) 09:36, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. I checked a bunch of the links in the article via google-translate, and they appeared to be only to social-networking sites, directories of works, and/or open-editing sites. None appeared to be a WP:RS with in-depth coverage of the subject to prove WP:BIO notability rather than just "exists" (large number of cites to poor sites and large amount of poetry is not sufficient). One cite mentions that he is on wikipedia, so this account may even be author himself or a promoter/fan on/off-wiki feedback loop. DMacks (talk) 19:33, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - There doesn't seem to be enough independent sources that show this person is notable. Inter rest (talk) 20:38, 26 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep: - Ayman Ahmed Khalaf: a renowned poet in Egypt and 13 authors wrote poetry and participated in several cultural seminars in Egypt, my opinion remains that the article is not deleted Lila adam (talk) 16:49, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep: -   Ayman Ahmed Khalaf poet is one of the celebrities in Egypt and is the author of articles in several newspapers in Egypt and Ayman Ahmed Khalaf whose name is in the Encyclopedia of Arab films

And his name is in International database of films (Internet Movie Database) (IMDb) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4730962/

My opinion is that the article does not delete طلال بن زيد (talk) 10:10, 30 October 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by طلال بن زيد (talk • contribs) 10:07, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
 * We really need cites that specifically say he is a celebrity. IMD, despite its impressive-sounding name, is not acceptable as proof of notability, just as proof that he is a real person. This is the general problem here...lots of cites of specific writings, but none that he has won awards and no literary criticism that he is a famous, popular, or important writer. That's the whole WP:AUTHOR situation in a nutshell. DMacks (talk) 19:55, 5 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep: Ayman Ahmed Khalaf poet already known in Egypt, which is born of Sohag in Upper Egypt, and writes in the newspaper News of Sohag, and writes in the Journal of the Arab and co-author of two series com Sete (Tamer wa sHawkiah) and (ragel wa st-Stat)..I do not agree to delete the Article Hits girl (talk) 00:24, 3 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep Hardly someone will compose such information for any reason. Common sense is good enough evidence. If someone will be interested in person - let them get information. Take in consideration that Internet access can be restricted in that region as in many countries of that part of the world. (talk) 18:58, 5 November 2011 (UTC))
