• Delete This page was recently created by User:Amandapm111, who has been globally locked for long-term abuse. This presumably therefore satisfies WP:G5. The article itself is blatantly promotional and borderline nonsense. Darren-M talk 02:49, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply

 Comment: @ Darren-M:-- WP:G5 applies if the page was created AFTER a ban and if there are no substantial edits by other users. Neither of these criterion were true with-- EnReVse ( talk) 02:54, 10 January 2021 (UTC)Globally locked sock. Darren-M talk 14:29, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply

EnReVse, On the basis of the lock being for long-term abuse, we can be fairly sure that the user is already locked and is therefore in scope for G5. There are no substantial edits to the article by other users - it's probable the IP is the same person, and the rest of the edits are reversions or concerned with the deletion itself. Best, Darren-M talk 02:59, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply

:: Darren-M Make no mistake about the article edits Many users have made useful edits Actually, criteria 1 does apply as this is a returning sock. As you pointed out, criteria 2 does not: Of the 13+ items the banned editor wanted listed, only 3 people and the primary topic remain. Additional topics have been added-- EnReVse ( talk) 03:03, 10 January 2021 (UTC)Globally locked sock. Darren-M talk 14:29, 10 January 2021 (UTC) * Keep The article was made before the announcement that the user is a sock and many users made useful edits in it, so it does not include quick deletion.-- EnReVse ( talk) 02:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC) Globally locked sock.

• Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log ( step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2021 January 10. — ^{cyberbot I} _{Talk to my owner:Online} 03:07, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply

Delete Google search (after removing self-published sources) reveal nothing of note "Amir+Mahmoodi"+-wikipedia+-linkedin+-facebook+-twitter+-medium+-pinterest&oq="Amir+Mahmoodi"+-wikipedia+-linkedin+-facebook+-twitter+-medium+-pinterest. Searching in persian language sources for "امیر محمودی‎‎" did not reveal anything relevant to this either (plently of stuff for people who are not violinist/footballers though). Could not find anything to support the claim that Esteghlal F.C.currently has this individual on their team. Delete as likely wp:hoax. Also interesting is this diff [1] - possibly another sockpuppet?

Transfermarkt (unreliable source) shows him as an U21 player and IMDb (also unreliable) is a different person... Spiderone 09:12, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply

• Delete - does not pass WP:GNG or WP:NFOOTBALL; the claims that he has played for Esteghlal are completely false and the Soccerway link is to a different player Spiderone 09:16, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply
• Delete' - claims he has played professionally are not verified, appears to fail GNG and NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 10:30, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply
•  Comment: I have struck the comments & votes of confirmed socks. I note Praxidicae has now re-tagged this for G5 (presumably on the basis that objections were by socks), so I think that is a better venue rather than waiting for AfD to complete? Darren-M talk 14:35, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply

I agree. The entire article is just vandalism and there is no good reason for dragging this out for 7 days. Spiderone 16:10, 10 January 2021 (UTC) reply
