I failed to find any significant reliable coverage online. Fails GNG and other relevant subjective notability criteria, I have checked all sources in Farsi, there are mentions of him as a participant of a music band in a concerts, the only source about him is one that he has been hospitalized in a hospital.

Weak Keep Non-US musicians must be evaluated based on popularity in their own countries. Based on his collaborations with other artists that are popular (which have Wiki pages), he meets criteria #6 of
WP:MUSICBIO. there is also significant coverage in Persian publications.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: We have an editor who claims there is significant coverage. Other editors claim there is none. As it is unreasonable to expect them to prove a negative, those who posit the significant coverage should explain, preferably by providing links, or explaining which sources in the article confer notability, and why. @

Comment I based my vote on significant coverage is in farsnews.ir and mehrnews.ir. These are both major Persian publications, but also he meets criteria #6 of
WP:MUSICBIO due to his collaborations with other major Persian artist, as they have their own wiki pages too, so it could be assumed collaborations are with popular artists.

There is no significant coverage, as I have stated in my nomination, there is a single source which is about him and that is the one which says he underwent surgery and was in the hospital, that's all

Delete - Even if he was covered in major Persian publications, those still have to have
significant information beyond basic press releases and brief announcements. Under both his Persian and English names, all else to be found are promotional sites and minor social media chatter. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (

Delete: The claim above, "Non-US musicians must be evaluated based on popularity in their own countries" directly contradicts what WP:N states about popularity. Nothing in the article, aobve, or in BEFORE show
WP:ISWP:RS containing material that meets
WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and in depth. Promotions and press releases do not establish notability and BLP articles should strictly follow
WP:SIGCOV,
WP:RS,
WP:V and
WP:N sourcing requirements. //
