Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Azerbaijan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Azerbaijan. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Azerbaijan|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Azerbaijan. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Asia.

[edit]
Nasimi (Baku Metro) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Seems unlikely that sources exist which show that every stop on this metro line are notable per WP:STATION. Other language WP pages are poorly referenced, at best they show the station exists in public timetables etc. WP:NOTEVERYTHING JMWt (talk) 13:38, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I believe that this metro stop is notable as it is an example of post-Soviet architecture in Azerbaijan. Most metro stations in the former Soviet Union have unique architectural features, see stations of the Saint Petersburg Metro. You would not delete a station article for the New York City Subway or the Moscow Metro so why delete this one? Zbase4 (talk) 01:58, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: WP:NTRAINSTATION says "train stations have no inherent notability and are not presumed notable for simply being train stations." I believe this applies to metro stations as well. Itzcuauhtli11 (talk) 18:05, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Week Keep I found one source:
  • AZERTAC (2024-06-04). Laməkan şairin metrodakı məkanı. Retrieved 2025-05-17 – via YouTube.
In addition, the Azerbaijani Wiki has two additional sources but they are both dead links & I cannot revive on Archive.org. From the titles they suggest SIGCOV & searching their former domains they seemed to be news sources so I will WP:AGF of the original Wiki authors and assume they are SIGCOV RS.

Khumar Gadimova (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

This article does not yet appear to be notable for English Wikipedia Insufficient Sources, and the topic may not meet Wikipedia’s notability guidelines. 𝒮-𝒜𝓊𝓇𝒶 02:28, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Khumar Gadimova is a well-known figure in Azerbaijani pop music and is widely recognized by the public in the country. Her artistic career has been covered by numerous reliable and independent sources such as APA, AzərTAc, Musavat, and Report. She has been active in the music industry since the 1990s, performing solo concerts, with her songs broadcast on national television and radio, and has participated in several state-level events.

The article is based on verifiable and independent sources, and the subject clearly meets the notability criteria due to her impact on Azerbaijani culture and public recognition. For these reasons, I oppose the deletion of the article and recommend that it be kept.Farrux Dadasbayli (talk) 10:03, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
