Possible WP:HOAX. A search found no mention or any coverage in reliable sources -- only Wikipedia mirrors. I was unable to find a mention of this person in any of the books listed in the bibliography. It appears the entire bibliography and some of the text were copied from Bashir Shihab II at the article's creation. The other reference listed, by Patrick M Hammoud (ISBN 9781989763298 in early versions), does not appear to exist. Can anyone find a reliable source for this page? — CactusWriter (talk) 18:48, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

  • Delete. Probable WP:HOAX. Ghazir was ruled by the Hubaysh clan for many hundreds of years (I verified going back to the 1500s, and forward to the 1800s - didn't manage to verify this particular date range). Does not pass V in any event. Note that an IP inserted this into Ghazir as well (undid it), and there might be a few more articles worth looking at (in regards to the IP and SPAs - some of which edited both Ghazir and this article - as well as other articles).Icewhiz (talk) 13:32, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
  • : Examining the article critically - the references to Kato and Boutros... Jazzar Pasha appears too early (born around 1720-30 - prior to the conflict in the 1690s)... Partisans... Al Kosom D tunnels... Hadiar was a psychotic. Although English educated .... (English educated in the 1700s in Lebanon?) .... And it gets wierder as you go through it - Yorge was the commander of the Russian Slav armies in the middle East. Also known as the "summoners' war hero"[6], he was able to gather an army of 100,000 men to help Wissam.[7][6] ..... Boutros had a Bavarian clan on the Lebanese territories .... He was most known for marrying Greek princess Wfaa Hobeikos .... Carcasus' shoulder was the main attraction of the Russian corporation Adwanov. He assisted Boutros in the emperor's counterstrike operations .... Zayad wanted revenge for the massacres in Barcelona due to the betrayal of Madridians ... fille de vache movement against Wissam's taxes .... (fille de vache = cowgirl). WP:HOAX - seems to be an article intended to insert a number of names on Wiki.Icewhiz (talk) 19:47, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
  • Delete -- I am very suspicious of this article, but some of the problems seem to arise from later alterations. see for example [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Emir_Wissam_Ben_Awad&oldid=830661434 this version]. However, it bizarrely introduces Barcelona and Madridians. Lebanon was in this period part of the Ottoman Empire, so that any rulers would only have local subordinate authority, which means I have also to be dubious of the subject's notability, even if the content was reliable.

  • Keep a lot of historic figures in Lebanon can’t be found on the internet, they can only be found in history books in arabic like “Salibi”, “Abou Saleh”, “Habib” and “Habchi”. Plus Lebanon under ottoman rule had relations with european empires and kingdoms like the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, Russian Empire, the British Empire and Kingdom of France 185.81.141.110 (talk) 15:29, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
