Not a notable person. There's no resource, and no reference. Behnam (talk) 16:27, 10 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There's a brief profile of him in the newspaper Aftab [1] published over two decades after he died, which in itself suggests he was not simply a non-notable who was forgotten after his death. He's also discussed briefly in English in an academic book Women and the family in Iran [2]. There's several different possible transcriptions of the name (e.g. the one used in the book is "Gholam Reza Ruhani"). cab (talk) 03:40, 15 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Reference No. 2 could not be considered as a reliable source. Reference No. 1 just mentioned his name among many other poets. Reference No. 3 list his name also in a collection of names. Reference No.4 could be considered as the only reliable source speaking about him shortly. My information about Persian literature approves his presence as an encyclopedic character for researchers as a sample of classic humorous poets. I suggest Farhikht to perform a better research and find some more references if he wants to keep the article.--Transcelan (talk) 16:09, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
