Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kaveh Farrokh
I think the criteria of |General notability guideline have to be considered here .The supporters of deleting , '''swing''' between two groups of criteria : when they want to devalue the person's publication , they refer to Wikipedia:Notability (academics)#Criteria, and say "he is a popular historian and not academic" : if he is ''popular'' that means he is notable !  says :''If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be a suitable article topic'' I think all the proofs  that has presented by deletion supporters in devaluation of Farrokh as a scientific historian  or a ''representative of Iranian nationalist interpretations of Near Eastern history,'' shows the fact that he is |notable or to be more percise by |Wikipedia:Notability (people) Basic criteria:A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent,and independent of the subject.I think if the deletion supporters are skeptical of his scientific value , they can argue on tagging him as "academic" or "Iranologists" ; but not to delete the whole entry
