Does not appear to meet WP:CREATIVE or WP:BASIC from what I can find. Sources in the article are invariably self-published or just a name check in a reliable source; nothing that establishes biographical notability. I don't believe that any of his accolades place him in a position that would yet make him notable by default, either. The best sources I could find in a WP:BEFORE search were this, this and this, all of which are passing mentions. He does not yet appear to be a notable YouTuber or producer of short films.

Delete:, as per nom, all references are mentions, and not much more. Spend time translating Arabic. Does not meet any of the Principles given here for Youtubers. --Whiteguru (talk) 11:08, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete a non-notable media figure.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:03, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not even close to being a notable YouTuber or actor. All of the references are far from acceptable and it fails WP:NACTOR, WP:CREATIVE and obviously WP:GNG. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coreykai (talk • contribs) 17:53, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:GNG, WP:NACTOR and WP:CREATIVE. A triple non-threat. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 20:31, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep - He has received an award from a festival FotoFilm Tijuana.--Artin M123 ^{(Συζητώ)} 20:01, 30 January 2021 (UTC) struck sock vote Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 23:40, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That alone is not sufficient to meet WP:NACTOR or WP:CREATIVE. Additionally, you would need to show that he has a large fan base or cult following or that he is known for producing multiple notable films. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 00:05, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

He easily performs creative wp:Creative professionals He has received an award from a prestigious festival, her fame can be easily proved with wp:Creative professionals.--Ərtin M123 ^{(Συζητώ)} 02:03, 31 January 2021 (UTC) struck sock comment Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 23:40, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In the third paragraph, WP:Creative has written this (3. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.) It is clearly written if a person has a role in the fame of a work.In my opinion, when he receives an award from a festival that is famous, then he has enough fame.--Ərtin M123 ^{(Συζητώ)} 02:12, 31 January 2021 (UTC) struck sock comment Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 23:40, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly disagree that FotoFilm Tijuana is an award that grants that level of presumed notability, especially in the case where Nikfar badly fails all other criteria. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 10:42, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:GNG. A single award from a festival doesn't make him notable. There are hundreds of people who receive awards from different festivals, yet only those that get significant coverage have articles on WP. Keivan.f^Talk 21:32, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
