I'm discounting the opinions of of the sock accounts. If this does become the biggest TV series in Iran, and there are sources supporting this claim, it can be restored. Liz Read! Talk! 22:09, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

Salman the Persian (TV series)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NTV, not even filmed yet, its website appears to be last updated a few years ago, no significant coverage to establish notability. It's also being persistently cross-wiki spammed to other wikis by same user with bad machine translations again and again even after they are deleted. Tehonk (talk) 22:21, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

 *  Deletion is not logical: Hi. I'm one of the crew members of Salman the Persian TV series, I'm heavily involved with the project, which is the biggest cultural project in history of Iran and Iranian government. We filmed the first season of the series and we are currently filming the second season. "Not even filmed yet" doesn't mean anything when we are literally filming. I will continue to improve the article, but please remove the deleation template from top of the article ASAP. As we are rapidly approaching into a big part of the production and we're going to publish even more information in the article, we cannot leave that deleation template to stay.

 * This deleation process doesn't make any sense. This show is one of the biggest upcoming projects of Asia, and it is absolutely filming with thousands of people involved. Do not delete it. 87.247.180.206 (talk) 12:41, 21 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete: Obviously non-notable. No progress has been made in this film after stated date (December 2019), this article is mostly unsourced, and even if there are sources, they have an unclear style and/or are promotional. I don't know if this "big" film will be released in 2026 or 2027, but either it is not notable, it's not at the right moment to create this article years ahead of time, or the film is not going to be notable enough for creation in the first place.

 * How do you know "No progress has been made"? you are checking western media aren't you? As even the article itself says, it is the biggest cultural project in Iran, and if you check Iranian media and educate yourself a little bit more, you can see the show is progressing every week, thousands of people are working every day, some of the most famous actors from Iran, Greece, Tunisia etc. are involved with it, and the show is going to have a worldwide release with multiple languages, what you're saying is so disingenuous and Ignorant. Also, this is not a "film", its a big budget TV show from one of the most respected Persian directors, which his last work was Mokhtarnameh. The article is pretty well-sourced aswell, and even if it wasn't, that doesn't mean it can't be improved and it has to be deleted. Arman Hawa (talk) 13:27, 23 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Do not delete: Hello. I know this upcoming series because I'm a big fan of its director's previous works, which were Shaheed-e Kufa & Mokhtarnameh. I'm not that familiar with Wikipedia's policies, but I can confidently say that even if this article is going to be deleted, there's going to be another one created since this show will be too big to not have a wikipedia article. So, if anyone wants my thoughts, do not delete it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arman Hawa (talk • contribs) 12:46, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
