Deletion of Sohaib Athar

Comment: per  which states that "''deletion should be a last resort''".  The name of this person is clearly significant within the overall story and is a useful search term.  We should therefore direct readers to a relevant article rather than making this a redlink

His http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tech/news/internet/Account-of-the-man-who-live-tweeted-Osamas-death-hacked/articleshow/8153172.cms account has received substantial coverage.  states that '''If the event is significant and the individual's role within it is substantial and well-documented...a separate biography may be appropriate.'''

Comment: and '''Redirect''' - I find the sources presented to grant inclusion, but the content is definitely too scarce, and not because there is an impediment to find more content but because such content simply doesn't exist. There are mentions about them receiving offers for interviews but such interviews have not been produced, and even after they are something of significance about the subject(s) would have to come out from them. My point is, I think the issue is not so much one of notability but of significance instead. These guys unknowingly reported on the raid, that's it. That pertains to and can be easily summarized at the main article. At the current state of things a full article about the subject is simply screaming . Redirection is due since it is a likely search term

Comment: Is there an article on George Holliday, the guy that shot the Rodney King video? The point is, there are countless individuals who happen to be on or near the scene of an incident and will get interviewed. Sohaib Athar is a classic , particularly, as his sole role was tweeting that there were helicopters and explosions but he did not know why until http://twitter.com/#!/ReallyVirtual/status/64912440353234944 nine hours later

Comment: or '''Redirect'''. Subject of article already passed  as there is http://www.google.com/search?aq=f&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=Sohaib+Athar#sclient=psy&hl=en&tbm=nws&source=hp&q=Sohaib+Athar+-wikipedia&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&pbx=1&fp=35c87c236b0d8c36 ''significant coverage'' of the individual from multiple |reliable sources. however it can be argued that the only reason why the subject is notable is due to |one event, namely Death of Osama bin Laden. If this is the case, given that the subject himself already passes , a section could be created and referenced material merged into the article of the event. If further expansion of the content relating to the subject is created to warrant his own article again, it can be |spun out at a future date
