The result was no consensus. Note that per WP:NRVE, topic notability is not based upon the state of sourcing in articles, it's based upon the availability of reliable sources. Closing as no consensus due to a lack of adequate discussion regarding the viability of the sources provided early in the discussion. North America1000 20:49, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Habib ibn Zayd al-Ansari

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I'm not familiar with Islam martyrs but I don't see many sources for this to make it notable. A search here found a few results which repeat alot of the article's current information, but again, I'm not sure if this is notable. SwisterTwister  talk  17:06, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - no shortage of results when you search his name in Arabic ("حبيب بن زيد بن عاصم") —Мандичка YO 😜 00:26, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete, unless citations are applied I defer to the user above who claimed to find reliable sources in Arabic. Wikipedia still requires that information which is presented must be followed by a citation to the source from which it came. If someone adds citations to the content, then Keep, otherwise, the minimal standards which Wikipedia demands have not been met.  Blue Rasberry   (talk)  14:28, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep -- That an article needs improvement is no ground for deletion. Not being a Muslim, I have no incentive to improve it myself.  Peterkingiron (talk) 15:27, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - as the page is right now, nothing to support it meeting the WP:GNG. I can't tell if this person is apocryphal or historical. mikeman67 (talk) 20:32, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
