Talk:Mohammed Nour al-Din Saffi

This guy doesn't seem very notable, except that he happens to be related to Saddam Hussein. But he's not important enough to be mentioned there, as the article is an orphan. Adam Bishop 02:15, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Mohammed Nour al-Din Saffi is wikified and not bad as far as bio-stubs go, but has this man done anything more notable than merely being a nephew of Saddam Hussein? Perhapsthe argument could be made that his detention by US authorities established notability, but one would have to ignore the thousands of other non-notable people similarly detained. My vote is to delete. --Ardonik.talk()* 04:31, Sep 20, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: There really isn't any notability established here, either. If it gets better, I'll change my vote. Geogre 12:53, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. I remember reading about this guy in the paper. This article is what I'd call a fat redirect: it has a short note on Saffi's minor notability and a link to Saddam Hussein. Wile E. Heresiarch 15:21, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not notable. --Improv 16:30, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. The bit on how he was detained after taking a refresher course in flying was interesting. — Gwalla | Talk 17:27, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - nothing in the article makes him notable - Tεxτurε 17:32, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, Texture is wrong! Everything in the article makes notable. -- Old Right 22:58, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • Really? I'm on a course related to my employment right now. Does that make me notable? Although a non-criminal relation of Saddam seems to be pretty rare... Average Earthman 08:41, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. -Sean Curtin 00:26, Sep 21, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Noteworthy deportation story. --Viriditas 04:18, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Kim Bruning 18:06, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. I've heard his name mentioned before, so he must have done something. The bellman 07:15, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - he sounds like an ordinary guy, nothing too notable except the relation. Given that he has not made any attempt to be in the media or raise attention, I think it is fair to respect privacy as well. I am sure he doesn't want this information about himself readily available. Lupinewulf 05:43, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
