I couldn't establish that he meets WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG. Multiple very brief mentions at best. Declined at AfC, unilaterally moved to mainspace by creator, blocked sockpuppet, Alishhsreen. Alerting those involved in AfC and looked at its notability previously,, , ,. Boleyn (talk) 22:27, 7 December 2015 (UTC) I'm resubmitting the pings as I personally never got this one so I'm not sure if the others got them as well. SwisterTwister  talk  08:25, 15 December 2015 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete as my searches quickly found nothing better than a few passing News mentions. I also have to thank for notifying me of this as I'm always willing to be notified of articles where I can comment including if I have commented through AfC and the like.

 * Delete: This appears a desperate attempt to fill article with sources that are too close to subject (or produced by him). Both NY Times articles have essentially the same biography from an unidentified source and he gets barely a mention in a review about another artist. We have online communities and notices from venues. The All About Jazz sources are about Hafez Modrizadeh and just mention that our subject is a participant playing the sanfur. He just has no individual buzz in the media. If articles could survive on the basis of association with other musicians and aside mentions, I could have created an article about the almost famous drummer who taught me to play... thanks.
