The result was delete‎. IIt sounds like there are inadequate reliable sources establishing notability. If an editor wants to work on this article in Draft space and submit it to WP:AFC for review, let me know or ask at WP:REFUND. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 03:56, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is complex. Said looks notable but when this was at AfC and at User_talk:Star_Mississippi#Abshir_Muse_Said we realized some of the sources didn't even mention him and the text is conflated with that of Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed. Likely UPE editing as well and repeated recreation, so bringing it here for consensus. Star Mississippi 03:00, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator note, for the purposes of disclosure, noting I have blocked the creator from mainspace for the same content issues on other articles. They are still able and welcome to participate here. Star Mississippi 03:39, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There may be a good case for WP:TNT here, given the faultiness of some of the sources. But the content needs to be supported in reliable sources, as with his notability, which seems not to be the case here. GuardianH (talk) 06:13, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Flowery terms, the potential for using sources that don't talk about this person and the blocked UPE tells me this isn't ready for the mainspace. If someone was so inclined, they could start from scratch then send it for AfC review first, but this mess isn't worth saving. Oaktree b (talk) 15:51, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. A search did not find sources to back up notability. Fails WP:GNG and does not meet WP:BASIC. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 17:55, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note from creator flagging for closing admin, the creator has commented on the Talk. Want to be sure their input is seen. Star Mississippi 00:30, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
