Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Yugoslavia

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Yugoslavia. 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:

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.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Yugoslavia|~~~~}} 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 Yugoslavia. 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 Europe.

Fails WP:GNG, I don't even know what language is expected to search for this person. Redirect to Yugoslavia at the 1980 Summer Olympics#Rowing, where his name is mentioned. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚｡⋆ 14:46, 9 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG, I don't even know which language of coverage is expected. He participated in the 1988 and 1992 Summer Olympics, so where should this article be a redirect to as WP:ATD? ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚｡⋆ 13:35, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - unfortunately, ~~our friend Zoran here~~ the article subject really is ~~irrelevant~~ not influential enough to meet WP:GNG. Here's him losing early in 1988, here's him losing early in 1992, and here's him finishing 29th at the 1994 World Championship or whatever it's called in wrestling. Trivial mentions here and here, the latter source's reliability being questionable. All in all, fails WP:GNG. If consensus is for a redirect, I'd go with Wrestling at the 1992 Summer Olympics – Men's Greco-Roman 57 kg, or the equivalent article for 1988. No idea which year though, I'd say the one where he performed better, but he instantly lost at both so I don't even know. JustARandomSquid (talk) 15:04, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

our friend Zoran here really is irrelevant – that is not an appropriate comment to make about a BLP. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:06, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Yugoslavia at the 1988 Summer Olympics#Wrestling. Fails GNG due to a lack of SIGCOV. As Mr. Galović also participated in the 1992 Olympics, a hat note can be added the target with a link to Independent Olympic Participants at the 1992 Summer Olympics#Wrestling. Also okay redirecting to 1992 with a hat note pointing to 1988. Having multiple suitable redirect targets is not a valid reason to choose neither and delete anyway.

Keep: see page; WP:NFO is met through the Golden Arena for Best Actress received by the lead actress for her role ('The film has received a major award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking'). Added a few things. Can certainly be improved. e.ux 10:18, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There is a paper titled Representation of the female character in the films "The Sting of the Angels" (1984) and "Haloa (A Holiday for Whores)" (1988). Another work dedicated a paragraph to it and included its poster. Kelob2678 (talk) 13:37, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yugoslav offensive on Kabash

Battle of Llapushnik

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

WP:CFORK/WP:POVFORK of the longstanding article Lapušnik prison camp. Also contains possible elements of a hoax because the Kosovo Memory Book only lists one death in the village between 7 and 10 May 1998, and three deaths from 25 to 26 July, not 47 as the article claims. [1] This in itself undermines its notability and dispels any notion of a noteworthy battle having taken place here. If we were to have a separate article for every minor clash or skirmish we would have literally thousands of articles per conflict. Amanuensis Balkanicus (talk) 17:21, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Selective merge to Lapušnik prison camp per WP:ATD. Some of the content in this article is solid, and not currently in the Lapušnik prison camp article. It should be preserved. Agree that we don't need two articles on essentially the same content area and this is a WP:REDUNDANTFORK.4meter4 (talk) 01:36, 30 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep seems to meet WP:GNG and there's good info that's not in the article for the camp. Chorchapu (talk | edits) 02:59, 30 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The battle is different from the concentration camp. I skimmed through the sources, and it looks like they describe the battle on its own, not in the context of the camp. Kelob2678 (talk) 19:04, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
