This person does not have the required notability of a living person to be included in the Wikipedia and the article part of the family allied advertisement in the Wikipedia (i.e. Iran: Hot Tea, Cool Conversations, Brienne Ghafourifar, and Entefy. 09:01, 20 December 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arashtitan (talkcontribs) 09:02, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

  • Yes, this article on the father, which has been around since 2010, might have continued to slip under the radar were it not for the flurry of article creation activity by SPA User:Wheysted on Dec. 18 on the three articles cited by the nominator, all of which are also at Afd. In terms of coverage, I'd say his young daughter Brienne Ghafourifar is the more notable, as she received prominent coverage by both CNN and the Mercury News. Anyway, a case where a rash of WP:Walled garden activity by a SPA has WP:Boomeranged, I'd say. Delete Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:15, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

  • Keep I'm confused as to the guidelines referenced not just in this article but in others that I created/edited. As mentioned, I don't see how this falls into the allied advertisements discussion. These are mutually independent entities/individuals who happen to be related some by content some by familial relations. Further, this article, based on the records I saw, was review previously and its only challenges were around it being a stub, and not around notability. As I came across his story, he's been noted as an author, multi-time entrepreneur, investor, filmmaker, etc, the combination arising to a single article rather than a split mention in various other articles.Wheysted (talk) 06:18, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

  • Delete - simply not enough in-depth coverage from reliable independent sources to show they meet WP:GNG. Onel5969 TT me 14:03, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
