Ah. however, the standard at CSD is not proof of notability but an assertion of it. Admins are not supposed to evaluate the article against [[Wikipedia:Notability]] and unilaterally decide if it meets it.
Well, obviously we don't want an article to literally say "Joe Bo is notable." So presumably whether or not an article asserts notability is dependent on what it means to be notable.
For example, if you think all people killed in Iraq are notable, then an article which says the person was killed in Iraq asserts notability.
That presumably applies to the Iraqis themselves. Failing that would show a systemic bias.
