Following Hekmati's death [[Carlotta Gall]], a long-time ''[[New York Times]]'' correspondent in Afghanistan, and historian [[Andy Worthington]], author of ''[[The Guantanamo Files]]'', found they were able to confirm Hekmati's alibi.<ref name=NYTimes20080205/>

==Hekmati's medical care==

Against deleting because it is dehumanizing, US propaganda, bleh bleh. The 'worst' stay on WP, the innocent get deleted. Which gives a distorted view of the imprisonment and procedures. The more innocent are in one sense more notable because unfair imprisonment is notable.

*'''Rationale origin''' [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sultan Sari Sayel Al Anazi]]
'''Abdul Razzaq Hekmati''' was one of half a dozen captives in US custody American [[intelligence analysts]] called some variation of "Abdul Razzak".
+
"Guantanamo" gets 134,000 hits on Google News. Are we to believe that this is because of the architecture of the internment facility there? Or perhaps the guards, or their uniforms? A score or two of Gitmo prisoner articles have been deleted, first on the basis of an outdated interpretation of the [[WP:PRIMARY]] rule that forbad all primary sources, and now an invocation of GNG that clearly contradicts the facts. Guantanamo prisoners have always been notable, and are a clear case for [[WP:IAR]] to bypass the contradiction with GNG. The article, like all Guantanamo prisoner articles, has been savagely cut, from a 32k article down to only 2k bytes,
 +
:Either the sincerity or competence of this notability-based deletion nomination is in question. Offering the inclusion of the article's subject in a list as a consolation prize to inclusionists is incompatible with the basis of the nomination, as list components must be notable in their own right. Which is it? Is this article notable, or is its inclusion in a list and therefore on WP altogether still threatened? [[User:Anarchangel|Anarchangel]]
  
On all the official documents released as of February 2008 Abdul Razzaq Hekmati's name was spelled ''"Abdul Razzak"''. However Gall and Worthington found that during his entire stay in US custody American officials had been identifying him solely by his personal names. They found he was well-known, in Afghanistan, under his full name, ''"Abdul Razzaq Hekmati"''.<ref name=NYTimes20080205/>
+
X: notability is not inherited
Gall and Worthington wrote that he was widely known by the nickname ''"Baraso"''.
+
::Not inherited from what, exactly?
 +
::An American base in Cuba is something of an anomaly, I will concede. But 134K? I think it is Gitmo that inherits notability from its inmates? Hmm, how might I test that? Let's see, coverage before the year 2001 might be good.

==New York Times' profile==

On February 5, 2008 ''[[New York Times]]'' writer [[Carlotta Gall]] and historian [[Andy Worthington]], author of ''[[The Guantanamo Files]]'', published a profile of Hekmati.

+
| quote=Abdul Razzaq Hekmati was regarded here as a war hero, famous for his resistance to the Russian occupation in the 1980s and later for a daring prison break he organized for three opponents of the Taliban government in 1999.
+
}}</ref>
+
Gall and Worthington noted:
+
{{Quotation|"... the Americans on his tribunal and review boards seemed unaware of how significant the prison break was, or how important were the men he had helped escape and whom he had asked to be called as witnesses."}}
+
Gall and Worthington described the prison break as such a "deep humiliation" for the Taliban; that they had offered a bounty of one million dollars.
+
 
+
Gall and Worthington had no trouble contacting the three Northern Alliance leaders he helped rescue.  They pointed out that although Hekmati had requested the leaders as witnesses, he was told they were not reasonably available.
+
 
+
When Gall and Worthington contacted the leaders, they found that none of them had been invited to offer testimony on Hekmati's behalf.  Furthermore, the leaders said they had been aware that Hekmati had been sent to Guantanamo, and had made efforts to get him released.  Ismail Khan, Minister of Energy, asked [[Afghan President]] [[Hamid Karzai]], and American Ambassador to Afghanistan, [[Zalmay Khalilzad]], for help getting Hekmati released.
+
They quoted Zahir:
+
{{Quotation|“We did try but it was not working. When they are sending someone to Guantánamo, they have their own rules.”}}

In response to those who would like to protect the rights of the detainees by deleting their Wikipedia articles, the response of a judge in denying the US Department of Defense the right to withhold information about the detainees:

"one might well wonder whether the detainees share the view that keeping their identities secret is in their own best interests"

Rationales against deletion[edit]

Against deleting because it is dehumanizing, US propaganda, bleh bleh. The 'worst' stay on WP, the innocent get deleted. Which gives a distorted view of the imprisonment and procedures. The more innocent are in one sense more notable because unfair imprisonment is notable.

"Guantanamo" gets 134,000 hits on Google News. Are we to believe that this is because of the architecture of the internment facility there? Or perhaps the guards, or their uniforms? A score or two of Gitmo prisoner articles have been deleted, first on the basis of an outdated interpretation of the WP:PRIMARY rule that forbad all primary sources, and now an invocation of GNG that clearly contradicts the facts. Guantanamo prisoners have always been notable, and are a clear case for WP:IAR to bypass the contradiction with GNG. The article, like all Guantanamo prisoner articles, has been savagely cut, from a 32k article down to only 2k bytes,

Either the sincerity or competence of this notability-based deletion nomination is in question. Offering the inclusion of the article's subject in a list as a consolation prize to inclusionists is incompatible with the basis of the nomination, as list components must be notable in their own right. Which is it? Is this article notable, or is its inclusion in a list and therefore on WP altogether still threatened? Anarchangel

X: notability is not inherited

Not inherited from what, exactly?
An American base in Cuba is something of an anomaly, I will concede. But 134K? I think it is Gitmo that inherits notability from its inmates? Hmm, how might I test that? Let's see, coverage before the year 2001 might be good. 10,000 hits for the over 98 years between 1/1/1903, the year the base was founded, and 9/11/2001, the year, you know, that thing, happened. Google hits for the less than 11 years between 9/11 and today now total 136,000. I won't be arguing that these numbers are extremely accurate, I guess. Like it matters. Around 100 a year to well over 10,000 a year. Gitmo prisoners are 100 times as notable as their prison? Anarchangel
