[edit] Abdul Qadir Al Rassam

Doesn't really assert much notability. I tried researching it but I'm not finding much [1] -Doc ^ask? 20:59, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Fails the Google test with a whopping six results. Non-notable. --Kinu 23:27, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Quick look at Google shows a lot more than six results. Non-notableness not proven. Catchpole 00:02, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
• Strong keep Also known as Abdel Kader al Rassam. I've added some info to the article (which had been a copyvio). Can anyone sort out the formatting of the Arabic? Dlyons493 Talk 00:05, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

After Dlyons clean-up this looks a lot better. And that name produces a lot more googles. Still don't know whther he is notable, but since I know I don't know, changing my opinion to abstain.--Doc ^ask? 00:31, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

• Keep, looks like a good article now, and to have been the first to introduce a new art form into a country is quite a good claim to notability, I'd say. Thanks to Dlyons493. Lukas ^(T.|@) 16:33, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

KEEP So, it does not have that many google hits, we can not base information on google, anyone with information on Abdul Qadir Al Rassam, should just provide a book reference.Saigon76nyc 14:21, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
