Micro-scale dam which does not meet
WP:GNG. Has been tagged for notability since April 2010; however, no improvements were made to establish its notability. No English search results, except different wikies based on this page. There may be more deep coverage in Farsi.

Keep - As a hydroelectric generation plant and dam, notability can be assumed; and sources are very likley to be found in Farsi.
Systemic bias may be an issue. -

Not every hydroplant and dam is notable, particularly in the case of micro- and small hydro projects. You can't just asume a notability of every micro- and small scale project. If there are sources satisfying
WP:GNG, the article should be kept. Otherwise, it should be deleted. During almost four years nobody has provided any reliable third party source providing a significant coverage addressing the topic directly and in detail. Just mentioning the name of the dam by sources is not enough for
WP:GNG. As for
Systemic bias, it may be an issue, of course, but unlikely. During the last four years, members of
WP:DAMS, particularly
user:NortyNort has expanded all similar stubs created by the same author. Remained only stubs where no sources available.

Delete. Very small dam which does not meet
WP:GNG. Given the growth trend for
renewable energy plants, notability cannot be simply assumed, or else things would quickly get out of hand.

Redirect to
List of power stations in Iran or just delete. I did
a similar AfDthree years ago on a plethora of planned dams in Iran. Hard to find information on these and it is a very small hydroelectric plant. I have worked on many of these articles and expanded what I could. If we don't delete or redirect it will be four more years!... of stub status...--

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,

The other merge target would be the town it is adjacent to. I'd support that.
