Idris Tawfiq

This person is not notable (WP:BLP). Notability is not established within this article, and this article only exists to say this person converted to Islam. The page also has no reliable sources. Sefringle 02:05, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 12:58, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete, profiled in Irish Times[1], not much else. Potentially notable but almost all results fail WP:RS as written by him or NN publications such as blogs. --Dhartung | Talk 16:44, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

comment Islamonline.net is notable and The Middle East Times is quoted in the BBC article, and if it can be established that he writes for them...--Striver - talk 10:43, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also, "writes a weekly article in Egyptian Mail, Egypt’s oldest English-language newspaper, and Sawt Al-Azhar, the newspaper of Al-Azhar University" sounds notable if it can be verified, but i can't personally be bothered. --Striver - talk 10:45, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It seems to me that there are no restrictions on the number of pages wikipedia can have. --Aminz 05:49, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep This seems like a marginally notable person, and should not be deleted on the basis of the evidence presented so far. International notable persons do require a bit of extra research to establish facts and notability, but if the facts in the article so far can be verified, the person is probably notable (though in a minor way). Remember, Wikipedia should adhere to a worldwide view. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 16:21, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Mermaid. Addhoc 19:36, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
