Talk:Shajul Islam

I have redirected the article to Khan Shaykhun chemical attack, for the following reasons:

  1. WP:BLP1E applies. There's a single source on Islam not connected to the Khan Shaykhun attack, and that source does not even confirm that the person who was struck off the medical register is this Shajul Islam.
  2. The page was a BLP nightmare, starting right with the first sentence, where Islam is called a "false testimony witness" without any evidence to back up that claim. His terrorism-related charges were prominently mentioned, but not the fact that he was acquitted of those charges due to a lack of evidence. Parts of the content were based on Infowars.com. Categories suggested he was fictional or a propagandist, the first claim ridiculous and the second not supported by reliable sources.

There is no indication Islam is notable beyond his role as a witness for the Khan Shaykhun attack, and the credibility of the witnesses can be discussed in that article - based on what reliable sources say. Huon (talk) 19:14, 16 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
