Saïd Akl

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Very confusing. This entirely unsourced article is currently disambiguated from Said Akl. The Said Akl described in this article appears to be the father of the Said Akl described in (in French) (appears notable). The Said Akl born 1888 (i.e., the subject of this article) is also mentioned in, but it looks like a namedrop and I don't read German. I can't find anything else about this one, so appears to fail WP:GNG. I suppose this article could be entirely rewritten to be about the Said Akl described in the obit I cited, but that would be a bizarre kind of ATD, wouldn't it? frwiki and arwiki seem only to have articles on the very famous Said Akl. Hopefully someone can help clear this up. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:51, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment. Two sources have been added since I nominated this. An auto-translate of the first gives a sentence or two about Akl; the second does not appear reliable. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 05:11, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete I cannot get the translation to work on the first source; the second source is pointless. Lacking suitable sources, its TNT time. --Whiteguru (talk) 12:54, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
