This BLP has been vigorously defended by its creator who has been removing tags and objecting to a redirect. After weeks of this the sourcing consists almost entirely of performance clips on YouTube. There’s an interview and the first reference appears to be valid, but there certainly isn’t enough here to support a BLP. I’d be happy with a redirect to his band as an outcome, otherwise there is no basis for keeping this. Mccapra (talk) 19:38, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This article has solid references and has been edited many times by different Users and admins. I don't understand why this admin (Mccapra) is trying to delete the article while the artist is noticeable and famous! We are his fans, and we want to keep his page on Wikipedia. So please, instead of deleting the article, help us improve it and make it better. We are two young writers and of course we need your help to get better. But there is one thing that I really don't understand and that is when I'm explaining to you he is in Persian music market and if you do a quick research on Iran you'll learn there is no copyright law in Iran and that's the reason why the songs are not licensed! I'm very sure you know that and you are still searching on American music sources?! How does that work? Can you find any English songs in Iranian or middle eastern music sources? Please do a quick search on google then you'll see the most reliable source in Persian music market is Radio Javan.

Please have some respect for our artists.

Keep As brave.soul9 mentioned, Hazhar Saleh is a Persian singer, and unfortunately, there is no copyright law in Iran. That’s why the most reliable source on the Persian music market is Radio Javan. Please do research, and you’ll see it’s true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aliasghar ghorbandokht (talk • contribs) 11:01, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The artist has been mentioned in native language news sources and TVs, which means he is notable, and he's been in the Kurdish music market ten years before he joined the black cats, that's why I think it's better to keep his article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.109.61.80 (talk) 11:07, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I know this artist since 2016 when He got invited to Bollywood.I'm Kurdish and I know for a fact he is an Amazing singer and songwriter. I think it's a good idea to not delete it but improve it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haz kurdson (talk • contribs)

Delete I have found these 2 small articles at dailymusicroll and one interview at thriveglobal, both of which are on Wikipedia black list. Looking at all the refbombing in the article it's still a WP:GNG fail. There is no significant coverage, there are no reliable references. What concerns me is that all the major contributors that are voting here to keep the article, could not provide enough reliable sources - in Kurdish or any other language. Moreover I believe the last voter has COI as his 8 edits since the registration revolve around the subject and his band. Also the name Haz kurdson is quite declarative on its own.

Keep As an old Wikipedia user, I do not understand why people want to delete this article.

Evidence is evident. And quite valid

On the other hand, slander is definitely not part of Wikipedia's policy. Users who call goodwill fake should be careful what they say. In any case, the article has the conditions to remain and in my opinion it is fully qualified

Keep He has many interviews on TV shows, and many times we've watched him on many Kurdish and Persian TV. He is a member of the black cats band, which is the oldest Persian music band. Let's keep the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ehsan.S.M (talk • contribs) 22:57, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I feel so sorry for you genius Less Unless! First of all, I've already mentioned in my comment that I'm Kurdish and yes my name is also Hazhar, the question is how can you be so short-minded to think there is only one Hazhar in the whole Kurdistan! I think a person who thinks this way can't make any difference in the world. with all due respect. Haz kurdson (talk) 23:23, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I know this artist, he is Black cats lead singer and has been really successful. I think it’s better to keep the article.
