Notability, verifiability. No independent, third-party sources via Gweb, Gnews, Gbooks under either name given that provide anything more than a passing mention of the individual (wikimirrors excluded) can't verify the position claimed. I've gone AfD rather than PROD to get more eyes on it because foreign-language bios are always tricky with respect to transliteration, etc. --j⚛e decker ^talk 19:13, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: this 2010 source appears to have a chapter on the subject: [1]. Unfortunately I don't have access to the source, so it is not really a solution. Apologies. AustralianRupert (talk) 04:45, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Wikipedia:Mirrors_and_forks/Abc#Books.2C_LLC leads me to think that that source is a likely wikimirror. --j⚛e decker ^talk 07:11, 11 September 2010 (UTC) PS: No apologies, I always consider these sourcing expeditions like puzzles, always happy to follow up a new thread. --j⚛e decker ^talk 07:17, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - I think you might be correct in saying it is a wikimirror. In which case, it would not be considered a reliable source. AustralianRupert (talk) 09:27, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: due to lack of coverage in reliable sources. AustralianRupert (talk) 09:27, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete in the absence of reliable sources allowing any of this to be verified. There are things in the article that if they could be sourced would likely be enough for notability, but notability is not enough by itself, we also need verifiability. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:02, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Are there any Somali-reading editors who could evaluate these potential sources? Phil Bridger (talk) 11:21, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
