- Delete, liberalism in Saudi Arabia is to be championed, but the utter lack of ghits makes this fellow's notability tenuous at best. Lankiveil 01:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC).
delete, Can't find sources, none in article.∴ here…♠ 01:26, 2 December 2006 (UTC)- Strong Keep Saudi Arabia isn't a country like the US where you can find anyone on the Internet. Considering how their government regulates Internet usage in country, this man may exist but it is punishable in Saudi Arabia to publish info about him.
You guys gotta remember that not everything is on the internet (yet). I think we should keep this article in. Sharkface217 03:33, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

- Delete, This article fails W:P and WP:BIO, and per Lankiveli's comment. Daniel5127 <Talk> 04:20, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Delete per nom, nn-bio, V.Keep - I added one source, needs more. Crum375 04:27, 2 December 2006 (UTC)- Keep many sources are available, maybe not many in English, but there are many Arabic sources. Islam Today, Arabic Wikipedia, Al-Jazirah Magazine (search "محمد سعيد طيب") should be enough to prove his notability. I think English sources are available, but maybe his name is transliterated differently. Hold on, here is a reliable English source Gulf News. Keep? :) ← ANAS Talk? 08:49, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep does appear to be sourceable, just google-resistant. BCoates 09:33, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. I want sources, but it would appear they exist. Black-Velvet 12:30, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - (conditional: more sources!) /Blaxthos 15:33, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep per WP:V. Although Saudi Arabia might be a country where not as much information is published on the internet as in a country like the U.S., some form of printed references should still be avaiable and cited accordingly. - SpLoT (*T* C+u+g+v) 16:22, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Anas. -Patstuart(talk)(contribs) 22:22, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Conditional Keep, the man is real but the article poor. If no more sources can be attached it should be nominated for deletion again as soon as possible Alf photoman 13:15, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- keep and expand+cite. the gentleman seems notable in his publication, but we need more.--Buridan 13:44, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - I really wish I could read the Arabic Wikipedia article. The Gulf News article shows that he's a notable dissident in a country that is famously non-deomcratic. --Oakshade 02:30, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - spelling Tayeb finds a few more online sources in English. --HJMG 08:53, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
- keep please it is sourceable and notable too Yuckfoo 04:49, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
