Non-notable film critic. None of these sources substantiate a WP:GNG pass. Sources 1 & 5 are the same article which simply lists him as a member of the Iranian film Selection Committee, as does source 6. 2&10 are also the same source, which are references in a book that he translated and did not write. 3&8 are again the same source, which is one passing reference in an academic paper. 4 is simply a link to his own book. 7 is a mention in the credits of a TV show. And 9 is again the subject simply being listed, along with others, as being the members of an award jury for books on cinema. These basic mentions, literally not going beyond mentioning his name as part of a group in most cases, do not establish any sort of notability. The article's tone also suggests that it violates WP:NOTPROMO. GPL93 (talk) 21:57, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as WP:PROMO intended solely to publicize the subject, regardless of article tone. Article created by now-blocked sock (see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Alexkia1399). A copy is stored in the sandbox of one of the other blocked socks [1]. Another copy is stored in the sandbox of a user already blocked for promotion [2], who also edited the draft previously created by yet another SPA [3]. As a matter of policy, Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion. As a matter of convenience, deleting this article via AfD will allow admins to invoke G4 later when more socks pop up to recreate it.

Delete since subject fails WP:NCREATIVE. The involvement of smelly garments only makes things worse. -The Gnome (talk) 18:00, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
