Subject does not meet notability criteria and only superficially appears to do so at a glance because of extreme

. Exacerbating this, every aspect of this biography indicates COI at best or an undisclosed financial stake at worst:

• Article is predominantly written and scrupulously maintained by an SPA – Aminloveis – that coincidentally has full rights to a headshot of the subject and previously in 2014 uploaded their illustrative works as File:Best of Ali Miraee.jpg.
• Article is
  WP:REFBOMBed
  to hell and full of near-suffocating puffery.
• Article is written like a drawn-out résumé. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 18:38, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• weak delete There is no doubt that user Aminloveis has only one purpose: to promote this person. So the whole page is an attempt at marketing. That said, if he has really won that many international awards, should probably get a page. But the current attempt by Aminloveis is just too obvious.

• While I recognize that having or not having a Wikipedia article isn't necessarily indicative of notability, there's only a single contest listed there that has one – in which the subject came in third place. The rest are regular external links to those contests' websites. I think it's questionable how prestigious these awards are, and it certainly doesn't qualify for

• Delete Awards are suspicious, like the World Humor Awards, which on their website are described as a sweepstakes for humorists and doesn't appear significant. Jollzar450 (talk) 00:50, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
