[edit] Mahmoud Khatami
I don't think this seems very notable? per WP:BIO. The whole thing seems to be one big advertisement for this person's works. Gary King (talk) 21:37, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

- Weak keep. The article says he is best known for ontetic philosophy, but when I search for "ontetic" in Google scholar I see only one article, his. So I find that part completely unconvincing. But if he's publishing in a language other than English it may be harder to uncover the impact of his work, and "Fellow of Iran’s Academy of the Arts" may be enough. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:20, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

- Keep. I have tagged the article as needing attention from an expert in philosophy. Membership in a national academy such as Iranian Academy of the Arts demonstrates notability. The number of regular members in the academy is limited to 30, so it's quite an exclusive group. I would like to see more biographical articles about past and present members of academies such as the Royal Society. --Eastmain (talk) 02:56, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep On the basis of his publications; He's listed as a "Fellow" of the Academy--the WP article on it does not indicate what the meaning of that status may be, as it doesn't mention that classification of member at all. I cannot get the their web site to work .[1] I suspect it does mean full member, but i cannot verify.07:10, 20 February 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by DGG (talk • contribs) 07:10, 20 February 2008
- Keep; He is a prominent professor at University of Tehran. --Mohsens (talk) 16:19, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
