Taha Mohammed Bin Suleman

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Articel about a 27years old Libyan businessman, that claims he has made a fortune of 13.5 billion dollars (what scale?). Only one source is given in Arabic language, that doesn't list his name طه محمد بن سليمان. Haven't found any other source, so tagged it as a hoax. The CSD has been declined, so sources are needed and users that can read Arabic. Is it a hoax or not? Ben Ben (talk) 08:29, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Having lived in Arabia for a thousand and fifty-seven years and two days, counting, the humble clown can at least tell you that it is not a hoax. This guy exists. Thing is, I don't think the ref has relevance to the guy. (My Arabic is not that pro, though.) Bonkers The Clown (talk) 09:28, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * The subject also has a page on arabian wiki. Bonkers The Clown (talk) 09:28, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi, I know about the article on ar.wiki. It's marked with ... missing cite sources, ... has not (been) audited and may not be reliable enough, and need attention by an expert or specialist in the field., see. If the ref isn't relevant, how could you tell that it is not a hoax, that the guy exists?--Ben Ben (talk) 09:47, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * P.S.: Both articles are from the same author: User contributions:Samylou27--Ben Ben (talk) 10:07, 26 August 2012 (UTC)


 * What I mean is that I can at least assure you that this guy exists, and it is not the hoax... But pertaining to the subject being notable... I'm not so sure. Bonkers The Clown (talk) 08:57, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi, then add a source please. If you can't find one, he is not notable. The article claims, that he has made a fortune of 13.5 billion dollars, as a 27 years old. That should have given him some attention. At least people that have Charitable Activities gain public attention.--Ben Ben (talk) 18:41, 27 August 2012 (UTC)


 * The page needs to be wikified, like an info box and inline reference of the only reference, bullet points converted to sections etc., if it is to be kept. Well people in the Middle East do not gain public attention on wealth alone. Ahmer Jamil Khan (talk) 02:27, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

STRONG DELETE: Fails WP:GNG. Not notable as per WP Guidelines. Not even a single reliable source. - Bharathiya (talk) 02:46, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - This source mentions "Commentary by Taha Suleman discusses the weak relationship between Kurdish officials and journalists as many articles on uncivilized phenomena are being written in Kurdistan Region but no government official has, to date, ordered an investigation into the issues covered by the media." Not sure if it is the same person as Taha Mohammed Bin Suleman. However, that's not enought information for a stand alone article per WP:GNG. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 04:36, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
