- Certainly notable (251st richest person in the world in 1999 according to Forbes[1], accused of al-Qaida connections...). Please do a minimal amount of research before judging something "vanity" or "non-notable". This page is however a copyvio from [2], and we already have another article on him. Delete and redirect to already existing article at Khalid bin Mahfouz. Uppland 06:25, 7 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Who called it Vanity? I'm aware he is the on the list Forbes billionaires, but at least to me, being 251st is not notable in and of itself. That sets the bar for notability much too low in my opinion. --Isotope23 12:54, 8 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- The nominator implied that the article is what is usually termed "vanity" around here, you just called him non-notable. If you really think he is non-notable, I think you should nominate the real article, Khalid bin Mahfouz, for deletion. Uppland 13:45, 8 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
