Deletion of Organization of Iranian American Communities

Comment: I |boldly restored the earlier version of 26 December 2016 per emerged consensus. This was reverted by good faith but per  I have reverted that edit. Also, I changed a redirect of Organization of Iranian American Communities (OIAC) from National Council of Resistance of Iran. Lacking more clear sourcing or consensus (more than one author) it could not be redirected to the article or the National Council of Resistance of Iran#Front and shell organizations|Front and shell organizations section without advancing serious bias or subversion. —&nbsp;Preceding Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned comment added by

Comment: Argument for deletion seems to be based on an overzealous interpretation of WP:N guidelines (and a clear failure to take  into account). The organization is mentioned, to at least some depth, multiple times in reliable sources (those given above by EM Gregory easily fit that criteria) and there has been definitvely "extended" coverage in sources. If this was one trivial mention in one source, then yes delete. Except there are multiple, non-trivial mentions in sources, and  doesn't require that all coverage be extensively about the article subject. Special:Contributions/198.84.253.202|198.84.253.202

Comment: Ping|Pahlevun}} I got in on this discussion far into the timeline but one thing for certain is that I cannot just go by the state of the article or citations therein. You are correct that notability is more than routine news reports. I see an organization in the United States with at least 40 member organizations and cannot just assume that there is no notability because it is not in the article or that what is there fails notability. The organization has coverage like https://www.voanews.com/a/iranian-opposition-groups-say-syria-strikes-saved-lives/4348440.html Voice of America as well as what what looks like credible reporting concerning ''OIAC'' and ''OIAC of of Arkansas'', but I consider this junk reporting from http://www.prweb.com/releases/2015/05/prweb12699831.htm PRWEB (Cision) (http://service.prweb.com/how-it-works/ See how it works) that is about as unreliable as can be, considering they advertise "if you pay us we will get it reported". I have yet to WP:!vote|!vote because in all fairness I do assume there is notability not found. I see the primary site for https://iacaz.org/ OIAC of Az, https://www.buzzfeed.com/rosiegray/iranian-groups-american-supporters-favor-new-sanctions-slam?utm_term=.km30gAMgG#.hfGRykOyq BuzzFeed discusses ''Iranian-American Community of Arkansas, a branch of the Organization of Iranian-American Communities'', and the now delisted "MEK". Unlike many that weigh in on a AFD I do not "fly by" !vote but tend to check back in. "IF" I do not find multiple reliable sources that are not rimary, closely connected, or paid, and the ADF closes as "keep" I will be on the band wagon to give just as much research to have it deleted in the future. Currently I am not satisfied with the sourcing presented in the article  and looking for sources to satisfy  but on my only day off I am working around other projects. I saw consensus was that the article be reverted (restored) to a previous version so I did that and trying to located sources to further advance notability. Please bear in mind that a source acceptable for content may not give weight to notability but may still be reliable for content
