There have been no improvements of sources given in over 2 years. I have no idea if anything about this article is fact or fantasy but two plus years seems enough time to fix this. Fyunck(click) (talk) 09:39, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

After reading several comments I have re-evaluated my AFD. Perhaps I should have used {{notability}}, {{original research}}, {{unencyclopedic}}.... except on BLP. I formally withdraw this AFD nomination. Please close. Fyunck(click) (talk) 20:36, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment on the numerous Catalonia AFD's My gut feel is that they could all meet wp:notability individually, have content which should be retained, and that they would be best consolidated into to a new article, possibly Political history of Catalonia. Between being topics that are somewhat obscure in the English speaking world, and that sources are more likely to be in Spanish explains why these articles lack editors and are hard to work on. (I.E. not due to unsuitability of the topic.) I have also posted the following at the Catalonia article:

There are about 12 Catalonia articles up for deletion (todays AFD's). Most are on obscure political historical topics, have no editors, and no sources, but good content. One suggestion would be to create a "Political History of Catalonia" article and put all of those orphans into it and bring them out of obscurity so that they can get a bit of attention. Or else give the individual article some attention.

Keep, faulty nomination rationale. Is the nominator saying that he/she can't determine whether the government of Catalonia is "fact or fantasy"? Blanket deletion tagging is not a constructive way to improve the wiki. --Soman (talk) 15:21, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all of the "Catalonia Government YYYY-YYYY term of office" articles. Historical composition of a provincial cabinet is not notable. Succession of "presidents of the Generalitat" (= provincial premiers) is already listed at List of Presidents of Catalonia. Breakdown of what parties held how many seats, and perhaps some prose commentary on what parties were represented in the cabinet, should be incorporated into Generalitat of Catalonia or a "History of the Generalitat of Catalonia" subpage. It's worth noting that these lists have been duplicated as navboxes to be placed on individual ministers' bio pages; cf., for example, the bottom of the Artur Mas i Gavarró article. _``` t o l l _` b o o t h _` w i l l i e _`` $1.25 PLEASE _``` 20:37, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
