Fails GNG – an unremarkable topic: a street in Iran known only for one event – its 2016 rename. Since it has already been PRODded (against all policies, as it was a stub created mere two hours earlier and still being worked on), it now must go through the full deletion discussion. — kashmīrī ^TALK 19:09, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

• Keep. The article includes a reference from a leading British newspaper, so this is not just a local story. And here is a reference showing that the renaming has been undone: https://www.newarab.com/news/iran-quietly-changes-name-nimr-street-mashhad Eastmain (talk • contribs) 00:41, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
• :A single old mention in a foreign newspaper is precisely a hallmark of ONEEVENT. Besides, the undoing was of a different street (in Mashhad, not in Tehran).
• :The nomination is in accordance with WP:NOTTEMPORARY which is a very good policy. — kashmīrī ^TALK 08:22, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
• Merge into Nimr al-Nimr. The street itself is not notable, and its only WP:SIGCOV is from its renaming for al-Nimr. Longhornsg (talk) 19:59, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

• Retracted per below Keep. Meets WP:GEOROAD / WP:GNG. The nomination seems to be around concerns about WP:SUSTAINED. However, there are sources from 6+ years apart about this street, so it meets that criteria. Note that WP:ONEEVENT only applies to biographies, and would not apply given there are two distinct renaming events here. A merge might be in order but I'm not familiar enough with the target to be sure if 2023 coverage of the second name change would it. Given that we don't need a merge as an ATD, it should be treated as an editorial decision. —siroχo 01:00, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
• :@Siroxo The 2023 article that Eastmain added a week ago is unrelated to the article subject (the news piece is about a similarly named street in another Iranian city). Even though I pointed this out to them immediately, they did not react. I have now removed the 2023 link as unrelated. You are welcome to revisit your !vote since SUSTAINED is certainly not met. — kashmīrī ^TALK 02:02, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
