The subject is not notable enough. It does not pass WP:GNG. -- Mhhossein talk 13:46, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete This is a biography of a living person that has no references. I will propose a deletion instead. CatcherStorm talk 14:07, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

- Keep. I should have thought that members of the Assembly of Experts pass WP:POLITICIAN. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 14:24, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- Weak Delete Is he in the assembly of experts? Masshad would be covered in Iranian Assembly of Experts election, 2016#Razavi Khorasan (6), and he isn't there. I can't find anything online either. But it says he is a representative of the city at the assembly, perhaps that means he is an observer? Smmurphy( Talk) 15:25, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- @ Smmurphy and Necrothesp: I checked the results of the last election. He's not a member of Assembly of Experts. -- Mhhossein talk 18:32, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete: unsourced WP:BLP. Claims of significance seem to have been copied from Ahmad Alamolhoda. In fact, the article's first revision supports my hypothesis even more. Speaking of that revision, the list of irrelevant external links is almost identical to the one at revision 749456750 of Imam Hassan (mosque). I suspect sockpuppetry and have thus started a SPI at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Qoba Mosque, which may lead to WP:G5 speedy deletion of both pages. -- HyperGaruda ( talk) 21:00, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- HyperGaruda: I agree with this. -- Mhhossein talk 21:18, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. I'll grant that based on the most recent election article he doesn't appear to be a current member of the Assembly of Experts, but that doesn't negate the possibility that he was a member of a prior session of that body. That said, in order to actually keep this per WP:NPOL we require not just an assertion that he was in the Assembly, but a reliable source which properly confirms that — especially given the evidence that this started as a copy-paste of another article about a different person, thus suggesting the possibility that it's an outright WP:HOAX. And, for that matter, even if a person does have a valid claim of notability, BLPs still have to contain sources to actually be kept. So I'm certainly willing to reconsider this if somebody can actually provide proper sourcing to confirm that he has served in the Assembly, but it has to be deleted if that can't be properly verified.
