 * Keep : He is an Iranian musician of quite a repute though the page needs an overhaul. I found quite a few (running into at least half a dozen pages on google) references to him on google. His claim to fame is not his accident but his music. The page needs to furnish more detail about his musical life. We may not want to remove a page about a prominent Iranian musician just because the author of the page did not focus on his music but put a silly reference to a traffic accident instead.

 * Delete First Iranian killed in a car accident? Nothing on Google for that claim. Seems very dubious, until verified this short stub should be deleted. JamesBurns 08:10, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't buy that being in a car accident would make him notable. However, he is a musician... so can any evidence be provided of him passing WP:MUSIC? If so, keep. Until then, weak delete. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 12:16, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * According to, he "died at the age of 54, on 22 of November 1926, in an accident. His carriage was hit by a lorry automobile which was very rare at that time." (Maybe not the first, but apparently one of the early ones.) No vote yet; I'll wait to see if further information is added to the page. --Metropolitan90 01:19, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
