Non-notable singer with no article on ar.wiki that was created by a user who was blocked on ar.wiki for creating non-notable articles. A brief look at the sources here suggest that they all don't meet our coverage standards for living people. TonyBallioni (talk) 22:14, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment notable singer. I am not blocked on the Arabic Wikipedia but I have an automatic reference authority. So you must respect the person in return and make sure that the information before posting - accept my greetings--IamIRAQI (talk) 13:22, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry if that was not clear, but you were blocked on ar.wiki for creation of non-notable articles for three days. It's pertinent because most English speakers are not able to read the sourcing and it shows that we should take a closer look at the sourcing giving the judgement of the admins of the language edition where the sourcing is a native language.

  - Yes this is a misunderstanding and I have automatic reference authority--IamIRAQI (talk) 14:09, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The references cited are mostly promotional and not reliable sources. The external link interviews show some promise because they purport to be interviews with Iraqi media that may be reliable sources. The search tools at the top of the page show zero for reliable dedicated articles/coverage. If the article's creator gets to work and demonstrates that this individual receives enough coverage from reliable Iraqi sources, this will change to keep. Without that = delete.

The sources added since this comment are not reliable sources: a blog and YouTube videos. Tapered (talk) 02:55, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Nothing's been done since my above 'comment' to significantly improve the sourcing. Time for this article to go. Tapered (talk) 00:27, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
