The Article does not pass WP:GNG, nor it passes Politicians notability criteria. I also think it's WP:TOOSOON and WP:BIO1E look Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Derakhshan 111695 (talk) 12:09, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect this new single purpose account nominator to either be or be affiliated with this indef banned sock puppeteer from the Persian Wikipedia (you'll need Google translate to read it, too, perhaps) but was unable to get the closing admin there, who is also a Wikimedia steward, to comment one way or another. The purpose here, and at least one other Afd, appears to be to delete articles related to opponents of the Iranian regime. Shawn in Montreal (talk)
