Keep WP:NOTINHERITED states that "notability not being inherited is not by itself grounds for deletion". There are plenty of sources which provide biographical details about the subject and so he passes WP:GNG. Andrew🐉(talk) 15:17, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As Mohammad Ali's father he received a tremendous amount of coverage in reliable sources and is, in fact, notable. pburka (talk) 15:34, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Easily passes WP:GNG. WP:INHERIT states "Also, notability not being inherited is not by itself grounds for deletion". It should be noted this is one of a pair of articles nominated, along with Clay's wife Odessa Grady Clay.Jacona (talk) 20:07, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Direct coverage in Sports Illustrated and The New York Times. Yes, he is known for being Ali's father, but there are lots of fathers of celebrated people who do not get coverage on their own. — Toughpigs (talk) 20:12, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - cited and referenced - perfectly valid article Jack1956 (talk) 22:07, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
