Fails WP:GNG, WP:CREATIVE - "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors." and, in fact, all other criteria. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 09:29, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, this page should not be deleted 1- Because Hasan Moghimi has made great impact on Iranian wild life with publishing several pictorial encyclopedias of several Iranian provinces. 2- The page is improving day by day by adding sources. Two awards were already added and couple of others will be soon. 3- Some of his pictures are featured and used on Wikipedia (https://en.wikirug.org/wiki/WikiRug:Picture_of_the_day/December_2020) 4- There are several Wiki pages with much less information or impact without being candidate for deletion, I wonder why this on is. A few samples are here (there are a lot).

@Erfan2017: Please base your argument on the notability guidelines, like WP:GNG and WP:CREATIVE. Usage of photos on WikiRug and Wikipedia are not considered factors in deletion discussions. — MarkH₂₁^talk 19:12, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@MarkH21: Thank you very much for your comment. I'm not the expert one in creating Wikipedia pages -yet, but I'm sure with kind guidance of expert users like you, I would have less challenges going forward. Anyways, regarding WP:GNG notability guidelines. Hasan Moghimi returns 4050 search results on Google (in comparison with Naveed Nour that returns 2470 (mostly unrelated results) in Persian language (both are Iranian Photographers):

2- Search for Naveed Nour: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=%22%D9%86%D9%88%DB%8C%D8%AF+%D9%86%D9%88%D8%B1%22+%D8%B9%DA%A9%D8%A7%D8%B3

Furthermore, Hasan is mentioned in the most related and most important organization regarding wild life in the country, that is "Department of Environment of IR Iran" (please see the references) several times, also he is mentioned in the Iranian national news agency (IRNA). and his pictures are used in several reliable news agencies including Iranian National Radio and TV website (IRIB) (please see the references). There are not any weblogs, or twitter or other personal form of media among references. In my latest search, besides his role in UNDP report about Central Zagros Project, I found several English sources (references added). I hope they are good enough to present notability according to Wikipedia guidelines.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

A short explanation: Since this article is temporarily restored for discusion, I would like to make some clarifications about the non-English references (you can use google translate to see the English version). Ref. 1 is a bio of Hasan with pictures of 6 of his books. References 2,5 and 6 are about awards (2 of them on IRNA that is Iranian official news agency and one on Iran Book News Agency). Reference 4 is an interview with Hasan as master of photography by a provincial paper [Isfahan.e Emrooz]. References 7,8, 10-17 are samples of Hasan's photos that are used in different news agencies and organizations (local or foreign). Reference 9 is a reference book published by Department of Environment (Iran) that is the place for the best pictures. Reference 18 is a joint project by UNDP and Department of Environment (Iran) that Hasan participated as master of photography. Finally reference 21 belongs to association of photographers of Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism that introduces Hasan as a professional member. As updated information: In Feb. 2021 he is nominated for a national award and his photos are going to be presented in a group digital expo in Toronto, Canada in June.Erfan2017 (talk) 16:11, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
