Khan Beshov[edit]
Seems to fail WP:BIO, largely due to the lack of external coverage. If anything relevant information should be merged into the newspaper in question. Crystallina 05:52, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Zero non-wiki ghits. MER-C 06:27, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per above. Reluctantly, though, since you don't find too many Iranian-Turkmen journalists editing newspapers in Inuktitut. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 06:28, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Shouldn't we do a search in Arabaic for possible Iranian sources? - Mgm|(talk) 10:34, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It'd have to be in Persian (although using Arabic script, of course}. Nothing in the article seems to point to the fact that he'd have more results in Persian - although his parents might, which is a different case. What might actually work would be a search in Inuktitut. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 11:50, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I am not convinced that his father is notable from Dmitri Beshov. That looks like an even better candidate for deletion than this one. Dekimasu 14:05, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I wasn't saying that his father was necessarily notable. I was just saying that what we'd be more likely to get from an Arabic-script search would be information on his parents if they were indeed notable, which they appear not to be. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:38, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh, I understand. Actually, I don't feel very strongly about deleting this article, but I was hoping my comment would prompt someone to nominate his father, because that article definitely fails a notability test. Dekimasu 01:11, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll have a closer look at the father and see what I can see. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 03:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - He may only be a rather minor journalist, but surely there is more information on him than other people (eg. Jake Niall or Csaba Csere). I would be very grateful if you allow the article to stay, and I will attempt to expand it. If you do delete the article, please inform me. Thank you. User_talk:Intergr8 12:00 27 November 2006
- Delete Being a rather minor journalist hardly qualifies him as notable. Best wishes for his further career in Inuktitut and beyond. Stammer 11:34, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
KeepIf you are going to delete him, why is no-one deleting the large numbers of other low-brow journalists how have less information that Khan? Surely the article is not affecting anyone in anyway? I can expand it if nessessary— Preceding unsigned comment added by Intergr8 (talk • contribs)- Weak delete. He may be notable, but the article is not written to emphasize the information that would make him notable. Dekimasu 14:05, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Surrender As creater of this article, I am giving up any defence of Khan Beshov, not that my defence would have changed anything anyway Intergr8 09:16, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep per above point. Sharkface217 03:55, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Evidently the article is just a biography of a relative, without asserting any notability at all regarding the occupation of the individual in question. Never mind the lack of references, which are nowhere to be found. -- dockingmantalk 04:53, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as an unverifiable, nn bio. Sarah Ewart 09:52, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
