- Keep I can go to page 10 on Google and still find decent coverage. The article could use some expansion, but it's well sourced, and I have no issue with notability on this article Mr.weedle (talk) 02:50, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Notable. Got significant coverage as well [1] [[1]]. Fifthapril (talk) 04:23, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
- Source check The smartphones chapter is trivial coverage (about a film he made, not himself), but the Al Jazeera article does have significant information, namely the phrases "Basir Ahang is an independent Afghan journalist specialising in asylum and refugee issues" and "Ahang, himself a one-time asylum seeker". — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

- Hi. Thank you for the response and I appreciate it. I agree that this is a trivial coverage and I only added it because he was mentioned 2-3 times. Fifthapril (talk) 04:03, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting. While there seems to be a consensus to Keep, there are questions about whether the sources found are substantial enough.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 02:20, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
