- Delete Another Guantanamo article which fails the notability guidelines. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 13:31, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as notable subject that passes WP:GNG- Was the subject of a fairly deep Washington Post article detailing his capture and detainment. Additional details and writings about him from the AP, and the Miami Herald show continued, significant coverage. --Joshuaism (talk) 14:41, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The subject of WP article was "Guantanamo prison and prisoners imprisoned since 5 years", and it mentions Ruhani's case along with few others while talking about the prison. There is a difference.
- Also, how a two line statement by the subject is equivalent to ]

- Merge and redirect to significant coverage - only passing mentions. Suitiable for inclusion in the list, though. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:00, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and redirect to WP:GNG. The Washington Post article linked by Joshuaism, had several paragraphs about the subject, however in reading the total article (3 pages) the main coverage was about the group of long-term unlawful combatants as a whole, and spoke of others in the group, but none that I would consider significantly; therefore, the subject of the article being considered is not the primary subject of the source. Additionally, the AP article gives a one paragraph brief of each unlawful combatant being held from Afghanistan, but one paragraph does not significant coverage make, IMHO. That being said the group of detainees are notable, not necessarily the individual members of said group.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 04:43, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - Despite claims to the contrary above we actually know very little about the subject of this article becausethe coverage of the subject isn't signficant at all. Not notable under ]
- Delete, per nom. Too little coverage by secondary reliable sources, fails WP:BIO. Given that the creator of this article has created what appears to be dozens or more likely hundreds similar articles on manifestly non-notable individuals that are currently sitting in mainspace and need to be deleted, the "merge" option is unrealistic here. Nobody has the time to sift through this mountain of obscure non-notable material and figure out what and how and where may be merged here. It should simply be deleted, period.

- Delete - BLP1E. Being detained, even in Gitmo, is not a notable event. Subject fails to satisfy the general notability guidelines. Tarc (talk) 15:45, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
