The result was   delete. Notability not sufficiently demonstrated. If any native Farsi speakers can demonstrate notability via Farsi sources, I would be willing to restore the article and relist it at AfD with the new information. &mdash;SW&mdash; speak 17:16, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Hirbod Human

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Writer/director of questionable notability. Google search on "Hirbod Human" shows only 47 unique results - no significant coverage found from independent sources. MikeWazowski (talk) 16:09, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

 * I replied previously that, until recently, he was known as Hirbod Toorminaei (also with Farsi script: هیربد تورمینایی). Zeary (talk) 20:01, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Can't find any sources to establish notability per WP:GNG. —Tom Morris (talk) 16:12, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep The play written by him attracted reactions from the Iranian authorities. Also some notability inside the Iranian American community. As for the concerns raised in the nomination, the number of Google hits for his previous name is high enough.Tylko (talk) 21:07, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Weak delete: There seem to be RS under his old, Farsi name - but they're all in Farsi. Unfortunately, I don't speak Farsi at all, so I can't evaluate whether the Farsi sources are significant coverage. Until then, I have to go with a weak delete, but I'm willing to have my mind changed by someone who CAN evaluate them. - Jorgath (talk) (contribs) 20:49, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

 relisting comment, lets hope someone knows enough Farsi to check if the sources found by Jorgath have significant coverage. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 00:43, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Just for reference, the sources I found were by searching Google News for the Farsi name (in quotes) provided by Zeary above. - Jorgath (talk) (contribs) 15:16, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Weak delete I don't speak Farsi, after some consideration my gut says Jorgath's Farsi sources don't rise to both significance and reliability, but I am entirely open to correction by those who speak Farsi.  Certainly no issue with retaining the article if appropriate, reliable sourcing can be demonstrated. --joe deckertalk to me 16:49, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
