Behzad Qasemi (Hacktivist)
AfDs for this article: 


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Was declined twice at AfC, once by and once by, then was moved into mainspace by the article creator after adding 2 sources which do not go in-depth about the subject, as well as being from sources which might not be reliable. I sent back to draft for further development, but was returned to mainspace. As per WP:DRAFTOBJECT, not eligible for draftifying again, so we are here.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:50, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete as creator has not addressed reasons for my AfC decline and is adding more and more citations that unfortunately do nothing to address notability. Pushing this into mainspace despite declines does nothing to allay concern raised at Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive1120. Star   Mississippi  14:58, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
 * and they have removed the AfD, which about expired my thin AGF. Star   Mississippi  15:02, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Continued discussion User_talk:Garshaasp which restored some of my AGF. If this closes as delete (too soon, vs. no potential to be notable), I wouldn't be against providing @Garshaasp with a copy in draft space as long as the mainspace is SALTed to prevent a premature move.

 * Delete: No better in terms of notability than the draft I declined. The way that the (unreliable) sourcing is used crosses the line into original research in places. Since there is at least some chance that this person may become notable, I wouldn't oppose allowing it to be undeleted to userspace or draftspace upon request. But if undeleted at the request of the article creator, it must only be moved to mainspace after being accepted at AfC. Whilst I really want this salted, I suspect it wouldn't help much, though I wouldn't oppose salting. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 23:05, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete lacks indepth sources fails WP:GNG.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 03:38, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep The article has the basic recognition to remain in the encyclopedia and is written in an encyclopedic tone. In addition to this issue, he refers to reliable sources such as: the official newspaper of Iran, reliable news agencies and the Federation of Communication and Information Technology of Iran. The article is not advertising in any way and refers to the investigation of a person who plays a key role in freedom of information in Iran. Gar sha as p   18:47, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
