 * Delete as an unsourced BLP. The article had, at one point in its evolution, a series of references that were taken directly from the article on Noshad Alamian, but had nothing to do with Ostad.  I know we are supposed to assume good faith, but false references always make that difficult.  Instead, I suspect a giant hoax perpetrated by the author himself.  No sources to be found, and the BLP PROD has been repeatedly removed, enough times by the original author to constitute actual vandalism, and finally by an IP editor in that editor's one and only Wikipedia edit.  (I think I smell a WP:SOCK.)  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:31, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:N and WP:BLP. Unsourced BLP & I can't find any reliable sources to establish notability or pass WP:BLP. Jguy TalkDone 15:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I nominated the article for Speedy Deletion as there is absolutely nothing in Persian and it's possibly a HOAX.Farhikht (talk) 17:56, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
