Duplicate article. "Muslim Mojahedin" is a generic term used for describing People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (and also used for describing other groups). Source consensus is undoubtedly clear about that. Fad Ariff (talk) 11:59, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The title is its own distinct term referring to one side of an internal schism within the PMOI that is currently inadequately examined on that page. It might be considered a child article of the schism on that page, and, were it currently a part of that page, it would make for a viable split, since Google Scholar yields plenty of unique scholarly hits for the specific term. The current overlap with the PMOI article is meanwhile incredibly low: the term "Muslim Mojahedin" is not even referenced there, despite being reliably attested in academic sources. So, there is little obvious duplication, no clear reason for deletion and good reason to retain the article as a viable child article. Were there space on PMOI to merge the content back in, that could have been an alternative, but, as it is, the page is already over-length, and that is not the topic here.

Merge, with People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran as a WP:CONTENTFORK. SailingInABathTub ~~🛁~~ 12:42, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran period from 1975 to 1979 is already covered in the main article, so Muslim Mojahedin doesn't have a different scope. It's the same subject and it's already (better) covered in the main article. Iraniangal777 (talk) 16:42, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and Redirect per above.Handmeanotherbagofthemchips (talk) 15:51, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:POVFORK. "Muslim Mojahedin" is only a term, in this instance used to differentiate People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran from another group (which is something that's already analyzed in both of those articles). I don't see anything new or notable enough to move to the other articles, and a redirect isn’t a good idea because the term is also used as reference for many other groups. This is a (quite bad) POVFORK. Delete. Alex-h (talk) 21:41, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, This article does not have anything not already covered in the main article. Therefore “Muslim Mojahedin” fails to support WP:GNG. Poya-P (talk) 11:20, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above, fails WP:GNG KSAWikipedian (talk) 18:48, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
