Mohammad Hossein Khan

No biographical information actually included, aside from name. Unfocused and confusing article. Not clear how it helps in understanding any topic. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ  20:11, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete extraordinary claims require extraordinary sources. If Khan was such a central figure in Istafan in the early-19th century, we should have more sources on him.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:17, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Probably redirect somewhere. This has the feel of becoming a redirect with possibilities, if someone can find enough to make an article, rather than a stub.  Peterkingiron (talk) 00:52, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - subject is clearly notable in a BEFORE. The Persian article seems adequately sourced. And in English - the number and diversity of book hits in English seems to indicate importance. What is really needed here is a Persian speaker willing to do cleanup.Icewhiz (talk) 14:04, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep following improved sourcing in article.Icewhiz (talk) 22:12, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm inclined to agree that there is something here to work with: Iran Almanac and Book of Facts, Volume 8 (1969) ("Iran is surprisingly rich in the field of archaeology. A modest effort was made in the early years or the 19th Century to preserve some of them. The first on record is by Haj Mohammad Hossein Khan Sadre-Esfahani who undertook such repairs in Isfahan at his own expense during the reign of Fath Ali Shah.") Not sure whether the best approach is to keep or to merge to Isfahan 24.151.116.12 (talk) 17:42, 23 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep and possibly rename to Muhammad Husayn Khan, the more common spelling. I'm expanding the article a bit, including adding a couple sources. Smmurphy(Talk) 19:02, 23 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep per the improvements, and you can just move it to the name you have suggested when this closes as far as I am concerned. 24.151.116.12 (talk) 19:07, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
