Khorasani Persians

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

As far as I can see, none of the sources in the article mention anything about "Khorasani Persians". The article is a violation of WP:OR, with the context tantamounting to having articles such as "Californian Americans". - LouisAragon (talk) 23:54, 14 May 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Delete The entire body of the article is about the history of Greater Khorasan, not the "Khorasani Persians". –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 21:52, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Agree. Article can’t decide whether it is about the Persian inhabitants of the historical region of Khorasan, or just the parts of that area which are now in Iran. All the information is available elsewhere and better presented. Nwhyte (talk) 23:08, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep disagreeing with the nominator's claim that there is nothing called "Khorasani Persians". Google search reveals a number of results some of which seem reliable. Although the editor has a history of creating articles without solid references, if not kept, can be moved to draft as well. Nanpofira (talk) 00:50, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete as OR and not a valid topic. A Google search in English and in Farsi just brings up sources about Khorasan and I see nothing about a distinct ethnic or cultural group of Persians. Mccapra (talk) 07:01, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
