Weak delete. There are a lot of Google hits for the subject, especially if you search using the Farsi transliteration of his name (وحید زلاند), and there's an article about him on the Farsi Wikipedia. That said, the Farsi article is pretty short and cites the exact same source. I hesitate to give this deletion a full endorsement because we might be looking at this through systemic blinders. I'd request a re-list, and if we get one, I'll go knock on WikiProject Afghanistan's door for help. A Train^talk 17:17, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
