I can't find any sources for this person or for a "Fishan dynasty". The editor who created this article has their own idiosyncratic spellings (see Talk:Karab El Watar but I can't find one for this person. I tried and took advice but I only see one source for that spelling, and no evidence that was this person. Doug Weller talk 20:47, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • The source where "Fishan dynasty" is mentioned could be found here.[1] From ancient Sabaic language 𐩱𐩡 means the ancient deity El who was worshiped in Ancient Yemen, the suggestion 'il does not mean anything !!

  • Delete Okay, I found the same thing as the nom. Either a hoax, or just not notable. @Doug Weller: @Ecoboy90: I'd watch what you say if I were in your position. You are in clear violation of WP:NPA with that "Dog Weller" comment. Also, Doug Weller is an admin and an arbitrator, he can block you. It doesn't seem to me like he's at fault, he is just following WP:GNG. You are dangerously close to being blocked. Calm down. Read WP:NOSHAME. ThePlatypusofDoom (Talk) 23:53, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This is an encyclopedia not a nursery school !! we are writing here because we want to share the knowledge and nothing in return !! that one who is called User:Doug Weller is an admin on himself and he doesn't mean anything for me !! we are not writing her to earn money or getting famous, we are history fans who want to share what we believe is true because we know the language, what is the harm of different spelling if it is true but not sourced in english language .. you can help to verify it by studying the name itself and not by listening to some people who don't even speak the native language !! if you block me from editing, this is called tyranny and you are doing just like military or religious dictators in real life !!!!! that User:Doug Weller has changed the titles of my articles repeatedly without even giving a notice !! he started to provoke me with silly remarks about spelling !! I have included the Sabaic spelling in musnad writings but that "Weller" has ordered the page to be deleted !!!!! he is always arguing about english sources meanwhile he doesn't even create a single page about the related topics, so how can he understand what we are talking about?! I hope that I am dealing with wise adults not with some lobby of tyrants !! Ecoboy90 (talk) 00:15, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I would ask for a compromise if there is no problem, I would agree a change in spellings if I am going to be contacted by a decent historian admin whom I can discuss with him ... any changes, edits or further interference from that one who is called User:Doug Weller in my articles will not be accepted and will be considered as tyranny in a freely editing environment. As you know that I can make millions of accounts so it is not wise to be hostile against somebody who wrote history articles without offending anyone .. I will say it again, a compromise with a history expert and not with that User:Doug Weller Ecoboy90 (talk) 00:51, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
User:ThePlatypusofDoom, User:Ecoboy90, I wouldn't block normally block someone I'm in dispute with. Ecoboy90, we don't compromise on policies. And we don't rely on experts, we rely on sources. Your claim at Talk:Karab El Watar that the fact that all the reliable sources have the spelling Karib'il Watar shows that they are all wrong is ample evidence that you are happy to ignore our policy on naming, and your threat to create sockpuppet accounts strongly suggests that you aren't hear for the good of the encyclopedia.

@Doug Weller: Yeah, he is probably WP:NOTHERE. If this continues, I'll report him to AN, because I doubt that going to WP:DRN will do anything. ThePlatypusofDoom (Talk) 11:33, 1 June 2016 (UTC) ThePlatypusofDoom (Talk) 11:31, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This appears to be a hoax and a sad effort to garner attention, to the extent that Ecoboy90 is probably a bad-faith contributor. Chris Troutman (talk) 12:07, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I went to the article on the same subject on Arabic Wikipedia and found a citation for an English language source, ironically enough. There are three mentions of inscriptions bearing the name "Wahab" mentioned in a source published by Johns Hopkins Uni Press: one of which is for the subject of this article in passing; one of which is for a completely different individual (Wahab'awwam), also mentioned only in passing; and one of which is a translation of a damaged inscription and the last name and thus identity of which is indecipherable. There do not appear to be any mentions of this person in any original Arabic sources, and Arabic is the closest language to Himyarite, which is dead. I suspect that this person was a real guy...who is mentioned in one line of an inscription in one of those "whom beget whom" passages. Hardcore fail of notability.

  • Comment: Might be transliterated wahab'il yahuz? ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 13:35, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as there's still nothing for an acceptable substantial English article, if there are sources, this is best then restarted when better. Nothing currently convincing for its own article. SwisterTwister talk 06:00, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
