Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Faraaz Ayaaz Hossain


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. No consensus in favour of deletion or merging, there appear to be some arguments in favour of this not being a mere ONEEVENT. Perhaps though a dedicated merge/redirect/rename discussion could take care of the BIO1E issues. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 00:20, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

He died in a terrorist attack, what we have is WP:ONEEVENT. Vinegarymass911 (talk) 17:56, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge to July 2016 Dhaka attack, his grandfather is slightly notable. AlessandroTiandelli333 (talk) 18:36, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep: It is not a WP:ONEEVENT. The article has been updated and you might find that the person is significant enough to have separate article. In 2016 he was awarded the Mother Teresa Memorial International Award for Social Justice and for the first time this award has been given posthumously. From the year of 2016 PepsiCo INC has launched the annual “Faraaz Hossain Courage Award”. This award has been announced for Faraaz's heroic role on that Dhaka attack. This award will be given for next 20 years and the prize money for each year is 10,000USD. I stronly believe that the request of Vinegarymass911 is not valid. --Nasir Khan Saikat (talk) 19:32, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - Sources do indicate notability. One event may have resulted in the major claim for notability, but it's immaterial as his notability overrides it. Jupitus Smart  09:23, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep Sourcing in article supports notability.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:25, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Wrong venue WP:ONEEVENT is not an argument for deletion, for example, it states, "The general rule in many cases is to cover the event, not the person."  That's not a deletion.  See WP:Deletion policy.  Unscintillating (talk) 01:59, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect as WP:1E in fact applies since the article itself says "known for the event" thus there'#s nothing else including the fact the information and sources themselves are about it, thus his death and news about it were the only claims. Wikipedia Is Not A Newspaper is part of policy and a news story is exactly what this is. SwisterTwister   talk  08:06, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
