Fails WP:BIO. Only one of the article's references is about the person (a brief bio sketch at his employer, BBC), rather they are news stories he was involved in. Found one source behind a paywall [1] but there doesn't appear to be robust independent sourcing. Brianhe (talk) 04:54, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. A journalist who was just doing his job and didn't receive any coverage about himself until obituary. Not encyclopedic. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:09, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I can't find the obituary. Whatever else, it appears that he is still living and broadcasting on BBC. Jpbrenna (talk) 15:54, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge into BBC_Persian_Television#Nader_Soltanpour. --Jpbrenna (talk) 15:54, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Fails WP:RADIO and WP:MEDIA. BBC is not enough to pass the notability guidelines. Ashbeckjonathan (talk) 21:43, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
