Darian Shirazi

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not meet notability guidelines for multiple reasons. The article contains three claims. One is about relation to better-known people, and we know that notability is not inherited (WP:NOTINHERITED). One is a simple biographical fact that is not notable on its own (the subject founded a company) and appears to be self promotion (WP:PROMO). And one is the fact that he was the first intern hired by Facebook, which seems to be of dubious importance. These facts are all backed up by multiple sources but the information conveyed is trivial coverage (WP:TRIVIAL) because it is coverage of the company he founded rather than biographical coverage (and the company has its own page already, Radius_(software_company)).

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge to a paragraph in the Radius (software company) article and redirect this article there because apart from the notability issue there is minimal content for a stand-alone article, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 15:01, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment: shameless COI/SPA activity - only one edit ever made by the article creator, nearly 8,000 bytes - despite two previous noms with 100% D votes. After this is resolved, we need to look at the similar issues of notability, PR, SPA & COI for the associated companies Radius (software company) and Fwix. Rayman60 (talk) 17:50, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment Above voter has attracted scrutiny for a possible WP:COI issue. StonyBrook (talk) 02:55, 5 July 2019 (UTC)
