The result was keep. Generally, we do not delete articles based solely on the subject's request except for marginally notable people. However, if the subject wants to put in such a request, they should do so with WP:OTRS. v/r - T P 04:30, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - there's no such thing as a "biography owner", and this individual is clearly notable, as demonstrated by reliable sources. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:05, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - This individual is definitely notable as can be seen by the number of reliable sources and the individual is a public personality who frequently appears on Al Jazeera and other media venues. I'm also confused by what a "biography owner" is. Any incorrect information should be simply corrected. --Guest2625 (talk) 23:37, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I think by "biography owner" the nom meant the subject himself. Meitham, it would be helpful if you told us how Nir Rosen contacted you and what his concerns are. While it's true that sometimes we delete articles on marginally notable living persons when they request it, first we need to be certain that it is indeed the subject who is doing the requesting. Anybody can claim to be anybody here and in the past we have had trolls and vandals try to get articles deleted by impersonating the subject or someone who knows the subject. What I would recommend is that you ask Nir Rosen to contact OTRS and tell them his concerns. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 03:55, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
