Mohammed El-Kurd

The Arabic page has been removed because he doesn't have any notability Aliaboomar (talk) 16:11, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Subject seems notable based on a quick search of sources. Article can be expanded. The editing decisions on another wiki have no bearing here. wp:otherstuffexists is not a strong argument for considering deletion. Ckoerner (talk) 16:55, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep the article is in poor shape but a Google search gives ample results for WP:GNG. Microwave Anarchist (talk) 18:51, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep While the article needs work, it does meet the basic notability guideline for people according to WP:BASIC. Arabic article was nominated for speedy deletion without leaving space for discussion. Flycatchr 22:07, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Plenty of coverage in WP:RS. Looks as if there are some politics going on here. The nominator deleted references and referenced content from the article after the keep !votes were added above. --John B123 (talk) 16:05, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep El-Kurd's ability to capture the public imagination through his direct, frank rhetoric has created a shift in the public discourse around the Palestine/Israel. The shift that he was able to create is in itself notable, and he's only 23 years old. Quotes from him are appearing on protest signs across the world (examples 1, 2). --Majdal.cc (talk) 18:41, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Notice I believe that the article (Muhammad al-Kurd) is a temporary phenomenon or fame when a person, thing, or event becomes the focus of attention and a very wide fame without introductions and becomes the talk of the hour, and it enjoys wide media coverage or large contributions on the level of social networks, but after a certain period of time has passed the fame diminishes This thing becomes forgotten and completely disappears. This phenomenon is like a bubble that grows until it reaches a certain extent and then pops and disappears after that, and that is why some call it a "media bang." We must take care of the issues, not the personal articles! If the article of Muhammad al-Kurd remains, then this indicates that the English Wikipedia is transforming from knowledge and societal and scientific facts into a platform for publishing the names of characters who did not achieve this momentum of knowledge, I hope to re-evaluate the status of the article and delete it.

 * @Osps7, the article includes references from reliable sources talking about work of the subject prior to the most recent "media bang". A better example, in my opinion, would be someone like Amanda Gorman. She was doing work well before being in the global spotlight (and had a Wikipedia article) and continues to do so. But that's neither here nor there. If you have a disagreement based around policy I would encourage you to make it. Ckoerner (talk) 18:48, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, pr all the above arguments; especially -Majdal.cc: I have found Mohammed El-Kurd's ability to sum up the situation to be ..... quite impressive,  Huldra (talk) 22:36, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep GNG met. I would note that this article probably comes under Arbpia (although the formal notices are not present) so strictly speaking, the nominator, with 200 live edits, should not be participating in formal discussions (ditto Osps7, 285 live edits). It's a bit late now, but you know, just sayin.Selfstudier (talk) 14:09, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I have now added the Arbpia notices.Selfstudier (talk) 15:50, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
