 * Keep. Merge. I added a few sources from Newspapers Extended. There are likely more but in English-language papers the name is often spelled in different ways so you have to hunt and peck. The Sacramento Bee article calls him "Prince Zalmay Mahmood Ghazi" for example. If others think there's not enough WP:SIGCOV in the sources on the page now, cast your Delete !vote and I can go try to dig up more. After reading |this my best guess is that he was killed along with the rest of the Afghan royal family in the April 1978 coup, but I couldn't find an RS where he's named specifically. They didn't even identify the body of the prime minister Daoud Khan until 20 years later when they dug up the mass graves, and that was with dental records, not DNA. So instead of having this be a perma-stub, I would suggest merging the content to the page of his father Shah Mahmud Khan. BBQboffin (talk) 04:03, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete. General diplomatic announcements; embassy's history; and irrelevancies. There is practically nothing that could prop up some claim to independent notability. There is not enough to even merge, since unsourced material is not moved around Wikipedia; it gets deleted. -The Gnome (talk) 13:02, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
