I doubt if this person meets the demands of WP:AUTHOR. Credited with the single appearance in a TV series [1]; all the rest is either unprovable or unsubstantial. Andrei Romanenko (talk) 23:18, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Looking at the sources, only the first one (OwjNews) seems to even have a chance at being RS, but there doesn't seem to be any info on it online and in the article it links to a Telegram group called "sepehrsepinews" which is suspicious. I'm not familiar with Persian/Farsi but it seems that the rest are:
  • User-generated/fan-made blogs (3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 16, 19, 20). Also note that nearly all of these sources seem to be extremely recent, within the past few weeks.
  • A forum (2)
  • A 404 error (11)
  • Generic pages containing info/lyrics/downloads on many songs and nothing about Sepi (7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18)
And as per nom, fails WP:AUTHOR. Fails WP:SINGER as well -- the only possible matching criterion given what is in the article and online is #10 "Has performed music for a work of media that is notable", but I wouldn't say that appearing as a pianist in one episode of a TV series counts, especially given that the criterion continues "But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that article" and WP:1E. eviolite (talk) 04:26, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete: per Eviolite's thorough analysis above. Seems to be a purely promotional article. Lennart97 (talk) 15:37, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
