[edit] Agha Saeed
Fails WP:PROF and WP:N, with notability not beign addressed since tag put up in April. Wizardman 18:31, 2 March 2008 (UTC) Notability has certainly been satisfied. Note that it had been tagged with problems for nearly a year, I figured someone would've at least looked in that timespan. I withdraw my nom. Thanks to Jfire, who went and improved the article in rather short order. Wizardman 15:05, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy delete per nom. —TreasuryTag talkcontribs 19:09, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy delete - While it fails WP:PROF, WP:NOTE, WP:BIO, it also does not assert the importance of the subject. Meets A7. Wisdom89 (T / C) 21:10, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete as above. Cloudz679 (talk) 22:22, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
- Strong keep -- in one minute of searching I found not one but two features in Washington Report on Middle East Affairs and a prominent mention in The New York Times. Jfire (talk) 03:16, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. As well as the sources found by Jfire how about these 343 news articles and these 21 books which write about him? Did the nominator and the other deleters above not even think of doing a couple of basic searches before commenting? Phil Bridger (talk) 15:02, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

- Keep. Regardless of whether he passes WP:PROF, he seems a clear pass of WP:BIO due to the multiple independent published profiles of him. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:53, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
