This article, Mustafa Hijri, should be deleted from wikipedia because there is no a reliable source claiming he is a notable person, and the source does not say anything about him. Nautilyus talk 13:54, March 29, 2011

Completed nomination for above user. I took the timestamp from the edit where he actually added the AfD template to the article. lifebaka++ 14:52, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Meets WP:POLITICIAN as the winner of an Iranian parliamentary election in the 1970s, even though Khomeini did not allow him to be seated. Also notable as long time leader of a Kurdish political party, and has received ongoing coverage by the BBC. Cullen328 (talk) 15:01, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've added more references to the article as well. He clearly meets WP:POLITICIAN. And note the BBC archive coverage [1]. The actions of the nominator (User:Nautilyus) are highly dubious. Note that he removed a reference and then tried to get it deleted.[2], and has done the same thing with multiple articles [3] and then via another account (User: Aschillez) removed the references again from this article [4].
