Does the subject merit its own standalone article? I'm having trouble finding any sources, and it seems as if there is not much room for expansion. The scarce content that can be verified could be added to The Stoning of Soraya M., where it would be emphasized that the film is based on a true story reported on by Freidoune Sahebjam in his novel (which does not have a Wikipedia article). ~ Mooonswimmer 01:41, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep but as a second option, Redirect to The Stoning of Soraya M.. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 09:25, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: At this point it would seem Redirect has strongest support, extrapolating from the nominator and the "keep" !vote. However, only one editor has called for this action, while everything else has a single argument. I don't see any support for the keep position, but it's up in the air as to whether this should be outright deleted, merged, or redirected.

• Keep While she is notable for her death, there is a book (and later a movie) on the topic. In addition multiple subsequent books cite her death (three such books are cited), which is an indication of sustained coverage of her death. If keep is not deemed appropriate, at the very least a redirect to the movie since there is no page for the book (in French or English). DaffodilOcean (talk) 13:07, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(I just realized that it could be perceived as a conflict-of-interest for me to relist this discussion after expressing an opinion (above) though I didn't remember making a comment here when I did the relisting. I apologize for my oversight. If there weren't additional comments made below the relisting, I would undo my action but I think it's too late for that now so I will just refrain from any more activity in this discussion Liz ^{Read!

• Merge to the movie. We could add a section for biographical information at the target article. Joyous! | Talk 02:36, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge seems fine to me. Could be an interesting subsection in the article there. Oaktree b (talk) 02:41, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge as biographical information in the main article. ParadaJulio (talk) 16:19, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
