• Weak Keep I was able to find a few articles covering the music career of the individual as well as coverage of his "Star Academy" achievement in addition to his signing of a music contract following his performance. They are all in Arabic; and the following are automatically translated pages (they keep translating his last name as "olive").

• Syria events postponed songs Nassif Zeitoun
• Nassif Zeitoun: Good omen closer Lebanese and Syrian peoples.
• Nassif Zeitoun concludes his career in Star Academy and wins the title
• Interview with Nassif Zeitoun

Some of this seems to be some WP:BLP1E action going on here, but I sense from articles like this one suggesting that his victory could mean closer relations between Syrian and Lebanese people, that this goes just beyond WP:ROUTINE routine coverage of a contest winner. I would try to improve the article more than I have already, but it's a little difficult with translation issues.

• Keep seems minimally notable but it's hard to find sources for the non anglophone world so let's see what comes of this.LuciferWildCat (talk) 23:25, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

• Weak Keep I would think the language barrier is the main problem with finding sources for the article. But it seems to meet notability in its most minor form. —Ed!^(talk) 16:58, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
