Mohamad Al-Khaled Samha

This article is steering controversy and bullying of related people, also most of what is written is wrong and not true. I demand this page to be speedily deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Unknowncoolio (talk • contribs) 01:37, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
 * You don't get to demand anything. Wikipedia works by consensus, not bullying. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 01:40, 23 November 2016 (UTC)


 * The subject does appear to have Danish coverage, but we'd have to seek someone knowledgeable to judge his notability. He mostly carries coverage related to his Jews as "offspring of apes and pigs" comments. FoCuS contribs ;  talk to me!  01:46, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
 * That could indicate that deletion is appropriate under WP:BLP1E; I agree that we probably need someone who reads Danish to assist in evaluating the notability. —C.Fred (talk) 01:49, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm uncomfortable with the number of deadlinks, nor can I read Danish, but I did find much of the content corroborated by The Times of Israel, which is described as an independent paper without political slant, here . I've deleted one claim that was erroneously attributed to Al-Khaled Samha, but involved a different Imam at the same mosque. 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 01:51, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
 * The problem with WP:BLP1E is that while this meets the first two clauses, I'm not sure about the third. This individual was significant in the event, and it depends on whether you classify the event as a single anti-semitic remark of as part of a greater anti-semitic issue in Denmark/Europe. Note that you may need to search under alternative spellings of Mohamad like Mohammad or Mohammed. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 01:54, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Also included here, with photo on page 93, with the nickname Abu Bashar. 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 02:09, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep. This article is quite a substantial biography, satisfying WP:GNG. Note that, according to said article, he is also called Abu Bashar. --HyperGaruda (talk) 08:10, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Subject has been in the Danish media for the last 10-15 years, and sources to show he meets WP:BASIC are present. I have fixed most of the dead links and added more sources, and there's plenty more out there. I may add that subject was indicted in November and, if convicted, faces up to two years in prison for hate speech against Jews. Nom, who according to their talk page and edit summaries is a relative to subject, came here some days later, blanked the article, repeatedly removed sourced material and then started this debate. — Sam Sailor 21:59, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
