Shamsaldin Qais Sulayman al-Said

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The Vanity/promotional biography (possible Hoax) which claims to be of an Omani royal, but the sources are blogs, promo sites and forums. Has WP:REFBOMBS of fake sources and WP:SPS. No source to prove why this person is notable. Can't find either. An IP had raised concerns on the talk page about the authenticity of this article. Also, Notability is not WP:NOTINHERITED D Big X ray ᗙ  00:50, 10 November 2018 (UTC)


 * KEEP This is clearly not a genuine request for deletion as these so called blogs are ISSN registered international newspapers and official government documentation. This user cites restricted comments and edits by a banned IP user as their sole reason. The most ridiculous case of trolling I've seen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ameera Patel (talk • contribs) 01:04, 10 November 2018 (UTC)  — Ameera Patel (talk • contribs) is a confirmed sock puppet of LewisChu (talk • contribs). – Struck above comment from blocked sock per WP:SOCKSTRIKE.

 * Instead of being called a troll, I would prefer to see some sources that prove this person is notable. Please provide the links that satisfy WP:SIGCOV from reliable sources-- D Big X ray ᗙ  01:38, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment I am not sure if this person is notable. I was able to find this source which seems credible (but one is not enough) Alsahawat Times. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 20:46, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Willthacheerleader18 Thanks for your kind comment. the link you gave above says Alsahawat Times is owned by the subject Shamsaldin Qais Sulayman. So that site is not only dodgy but WP:SPS as well. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  20:58, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per above statement along with the fact that after a more intense search I can find no credible secondary or independent coverage of this supposedly royal person. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 13:23, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, -- RoySmith (talk) 00:09, 18 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Additional Sources: https://mygov.nl/news/2018-09-20-shamsaldin-qais-sulayman-al-said.html noted that this is only one source, all be it a credible one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.69.145.120 (talk) 01:16, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
 * The above Site mygov.nl is not a reliable or official site, although it tries hard to appear one. per https://www.whois.net/, mygov.nl is registered in denmark and appears to me as a self published promotional site. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  05:37, 18 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete as highly suspect without copious quantities of unimpeachably reliable sources, xref Articles for deletion/The International Press and Media Group and and this diff ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 10:23, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Also delete Ask Tuki, as related page failing GNG (sock removed previous prod) ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 11:02, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
 * User:Hydronium Hydroxide Agree that this other article should also be deleted for same problems, I have AfD'ed it on Articles for deletion/Ask Tuki-- D Big X ray ᗙ  11:37, 25 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete Despite the WP:REFBOMBING (including passing mentions, IMDB and even forums), this article does not show why the subject is notable at all. Nothing to be found in my BEFORE search. Fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 14:35, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
