Kourosh Torbat Zadeh

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

Recreated several times today. The first attempt was speedy deleted for multiple reasons but the second one was given a chance by being sent to draft (Draft:Kourosh Torbat Zadeh), indicating that the topic has potential merit. A third identical copy has now been posted again in mainspace, which is usually an attempt to game the system.

None of the sources show significant coverage. This one looks to be the best but is actually written by Torbat Zadeh himself and is a press release, so is not WP:RS. A Persian search also yielded nothing apart from his own social media. There is no clear evidence that he passes WP:NMUSICIAN or WP:NACTOR either.

 * Delete The only coverage I found was a self-published press release. If, for some reason, Zadeh is found to be notable, the article quality demands nuking from orbit and a rewrite. Kleuske (talk) 23:12, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Looks like a promotional page for a nobody. Oaktree b (talk) 23:58, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I think it is harsh to call any person a "nobody" but I don't think this individual meets Wikipedia's standards for notability for actors, WP:NACTOR. I also have a prejudice against new editors writing articles promoting themselves and their careers. I see dozen of these articles in Draft space every day but compared to those half-hearted efforts, it seems like this editor has been extremely persistent. Liz Read!

 * Delete as not coming anywhere close to general notability or biographical notability or musical notability or acting notability. Does not have any of the footnotes that are required for a biography of a living person.
 * It was sent to draft not because of any possible notability but as the alternative to A7 because there might or might not be a credible claim of significance. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:01, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment to User:Liz - I think that Wikipedia has a policy of prejudice against new editors writing promotional articles. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:01, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment - I also have a prejudice against editors who create two copies of an article, in draft space and in article space, especially if they also have a conflict of interest. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:01, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Lacks significant coverage, and a whiff of promotion around the whole thing. Pika voom  Talk 06:32, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. In addition to the obvious lack of notability and CV styling, it is also a COPYVIO from his IMDb profile at https://www.imdb.com/name/nm13121927/, such as this exact match: "...was born on June 25, 1991 in the city of Mashhad, Iran مشهد ایران . He is an employee of MTN Irancell and works in the field of content production in this large company and is one of the well-known and popular forces of this company. He is fluent in German and also works in the field of acting and singing. He is also a TV presenter..."--Gronk Oz (talk) 06:44, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
