[edit] David K. Zandi

David K. Zandi (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Actor with a total of two (uncredited) roles at imdb, and supposedly a producer too but imdb has nothing. Few google results. He's Iranian--does anyone know his Farsi name so they can see if that pulls up more? He apparently has fans from my searches but I can't find any sources that show anything substantive he's done, or any substantive coverage of him. Note: if this gets deleted, can someone nominate the wikiquote page I made where I moved all the quotes from this page to? Calliopejen1 05:05, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

• Delete The guy hits 222 on the best google search. Notability is not well defined but this articles is just so pompous it begs belief. Mike33 07:31, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Reads like self-promotion...who else would have access to his "9/11" ID? Can we also delete his page on wikiquotes? Corpx 07:56, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

• Keep I'm new to this site, so I don't know if i'm doing this right. Calliopejen, i think this page should stay becuase people have the right to know. which makes me wonder if someone working for him put you to this deletion thing. i say this becuase i saw his TV interview where he said he wished all information about him on the net could dispear. and that he didn't believe people should have freedom of speech and there shouldn't be freedom of press. ^{unsigned by Bandof_wonder (talk • contribs • count) 08:43, 23 June 2007 (UTC)}

Explanation Welcome to wikipedia :-) Being Notable in wikipedia is open to lots of interpretations. Just because I know someone and I know that he has does something or I read his site and think he was good/bad doesn't merit an article. A useful rule of thumb is a google search, using my useual rule of excluding blogs and mirrors he didn't give me a single google-hit. Just using his name gave me 222 hits. I like 1000 plus relevent hits and I didn't get one from this search. Happy editing :-) Mike33 09:10, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Answer mike 33 thank you for Explanation. people who like to stay in hiding or like low key like him, have ways of going under the radar. like one thing i find out today is he gets his company to get credit for work so people can't imdb or google his name. http://www.imdb.com/company/co0179212/

• Well, we should help him stay low key by not having an article then :) Corpx 17:04, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

• and another thing i find out this second is slot of places have him down as dkzandi, try to google that Bandof_wonder (talk • contribs • count) 08:43, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

• That looks like his internet screen name and does not come up with anything that shows notability. Corpx 17:03, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Maybe in a few years. Gold♥ 21:08, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
