- delete I do not pretend to read Farsi. My comment (sourcing does not exist, see this news google search [1] nothing there. The sources on the page may well be primary, or government related. She is young, attractive, with a highly sympathetic backstory that is being pushed by someone, but that cannot be validated with RS.) from the AFD last monty still stands. I will add only that I ran that search again [2], and theat there is nothing out there to validate notability in a Latin alphabet.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:13, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
- Keep War heros are notable, or not? pajhwok Afghan News notes that Farahnaz Forotan of Aryana Television, Shakila Shirzad of Shamshad Television and Wahida Faizi of Salam Watandar were given ‘Malalai Maiwand war hero medal. [3]
- Depends. Not everybody with a medal is noteworthy. But it is an interesting development. Could you provide us with extra sources and an evaluation about the value of the medal (i.e. some medals are more important than others). The Banner talk 16:23, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
