Nominated for an Oscar for sound editing, but didn't win. Clarityfiend 22:43, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak Delete. There doesn't seem to be much available from a web search on the guy besides the Oscar nom (since he didn't win, I think that means he doesn't get to claim a notable award). -Cquan (after the beep...) 22:47, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep Shoot me down by all means, but isn't an Oscar nomination in itself notable, given how prestigious the Oscars are? "Oscar-nominated" is often used as a term of distinction by non-winners for years afterwards. Obviously, if there is no other information available on him (possibly because he's Iranian) it may not be easy to produce more than stub. HeartofaDog 18:02, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Subject has dozens of credits on IMDB in movies and TV shows which are themselves the subjects of articles. MKoltnow 18:47, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep This guy is not only notable, he's famous or at least very well known. Unfortunately, sound editing is not one of the glamour jobs in movies. I've expanded the article a little and added citations [1]. Asgar has 68 credits in film and television (with some very big names among them), an 18 year career in the industry and 4 nominations for major awards - one Oscar, one Emmy and two Golden Reel awards. I hope he hasn't been reading this AfD :) Paxse 15:01, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
