I can find no WP:Secondary, WP:Reliable sources for this event in Google News, Scholar or Books. It was deleted on the same grounds in an AFD a month ago, but speedy G4 was declined on the grounds that new sources have been added: I assume that this refers to the article from MarjaeyatTV.com. I can't tell whether this is a video blog or a television channel, and whether it's a WP:RS, but it seems from the lack of widespread coverage of this observance that it's not yet a notable annual observance per WP:GNG.

(websitepart.com/www/internationalshiaday.com)." I also note that while there is mention in the article of an observance in Washington, DC, the article lists no well-known Washington media reporting the event.

- Speedy delete as G4. All evidence suggests that this version is substantially similar to the one that was already deleted. The user is persistently re-creating it and should be blocked. – Roscelese ( talk ⋅ contribs) 03:05, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
