It could be moved to a different namespace if the waw should be transliterated "ou" instead of "oo." Different authorities may recommend different transliterations for Perso-Arabic characters, but if his name is more frequently transliterated Nasehpour, then it should have been put in that namespace. The issue is now moot, since the article was delted. Jpbrenna (talk) 18:02, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable Iranian hand Drummer and mathematician. This person fails specific notability guideline such as WP:ACADEMIC and WP:BIO, the article seems nothing, but a promotion or publishing since its ~~creator and~~ main contributor, User:Kumarwiki1984 seems to have a pretty close connection with the subject (the user sole contributions are connected with this article) which may compromise its factual accuracy in a long term maintenance.

User:Kumarwiki1984: If you consider the main romanization of this artist's name: Peyman Nasehpour, then you will see the notability of this musician and mathematician. In my opinion, Wikipedia must use the main romanization of this artist's name, but I don't know how to justify them to give up the wrong romanization, Nasehpoor and use only the main romanization: Nasehpour.

Delete. Notability not evident per WP:MUSICIAN or WP:PROF. In particular his citations on Google scholar are too low for WP:PROF#C1, even for a low-citation field. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:31, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per nom, sources are self published, no evidence of notability. Spada II ♪♫ (talk) 19:00, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:PROF. Sławomir Biały (talk) 20:53, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral. I was assured by an Iranian friend that he is quite famous in Iran as a musician, but I admit that evidence of this in English is hard to come by, and the modicum of Persian that I know is inadequate to the task of finding and translationg Persian sources. Perhaps some Persian Wikipedians could shed some light on this? Jpbrenna (talk) 04:36, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No independent reliable sources in article. If as Kumarwiki1984 says independent reliable sources can be found under the "Nasehpour" romanization, let him/her add them to the article. —teb728 t c 05:51, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete - A Google search in Persian gives some news articles (mostly mention him in passing and among others, also some articles by the subject himself) but not enough to establish notability.Farhikht (talk) 12:45, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This artist is really a notable musician and a lecturer of Tehran Art University (according to his Linkedin profile) and has worked with some notable musicians such as Habil Aliyev, Mohammad Reza Lotfi, Peter Giger, Gevorg Dabaghyan, Majid Derakhshani, Hassan Nahid, Massoud Shaari, Elshan Mansurov and Gitti Khosravi (some pictures are available in his official website and other websites.

— Kumarwiki1984 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Unfortunately his Linkedin profile and official website are controlled by him and thus are not considered independent reliable sources. Thus they are of no use in demonstating notability. Has he received significant coverage in newspapers, magazines, books, and the like? —teb728 t c 22:51, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WoS shows 2 papers with a single citation between them. Agricola44 (talk) 21:02, 7 August 2013 (UTC).[reply]

Notability. This artist has received significant coverage in newspapers and magazines, both in English like "TehranTimes" and other medias such as "E1""E2" "E3""E4" and in Persian such as "HamshahriOnline" and "F1" [User:Kumarwiki1984] 8:42 AM Thursday, August 8, 2013 (UTC). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kumarwiki1984 (talk • contribs)
