Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Middle East
![]() | Points of interest related to Middle East on Wikipedia: History – Portal – Category – WikiProject – Deletions – Stubs |
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Middle East. 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|Middle East|~~~~}} 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 Middle East. 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.

Total WP:SYNTH/WP:OR - unverifiable (book ISBNs all fail lookup, as do the cited DOIs). Sent to draft, returned by author unchanged other than to remove many of the suspect ISBNs. BTW the book titles themselves fail book search - give the first cited source, "Genealogies of Eastern Arabia: Tracing the Lineages" a try...

- 2024 Gaza Strip polio epidemic (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)
Basically a WP:REDUNDANTFORK of Gaza humanitarian crisis.
More importantly, off all the given sources, only a single one (The National) uses the term "epidemic" in its own voice, with 2 more quoting the Gaza Health Ministry's declaration of an epidemic. RS hasn't been using the term epidemic (probably because as of now there haven't been any confirmed cases yet. There are strong fears of a coming epidemic, and polio has been found in the sewage, but thankfully no infections). At the very least the article needs to be considerably shortened, and name changed to "Polio discoveries" or something. Violates Crystal Ball. It's also not being (significantly) covered by RS on its own, but rather as part of the broader crisis. Hydromania (talk) 03:44, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Gaza humanitarian crisis - Wouldn't be opposed to recreating the article later if more sources begin to call the Polio issue an epidemic, but a redirect would suffice for right now. Jdcomix (talk) 13:33, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Redirecting the current title if the term "epidemic" is not being used by multiple reliable sources would violate WP:NDESC. Dclemens1971 (talk) 15:17, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Merge with Gaza humanitarian crisis. My first impression is that we should probably redirect. Now to read with care... Yeah, merge with Gaza humanitarian crisis. Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:24, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Move or merge. There are plenty of reliable sources with significant coverage, so deleting it isn’t warranted. If kept, a move or rename to 2024 Gaza Strip polio outbreak or the like would be appropriate. I don’t oppose the merger, however the main article could get filled with a lot of more important and less important trivia; see what happened at one time to Palestinian law. Bearian (talk)

- keep - and expand. Could be broadened to "infectious diseases outbreaks" instead of just polio, but it warrants its own coverage separate from starvation and other issues. FourPi (talk) 12:08, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- That Al Jazeera article does not use the term "Polio Epidemic" in its own voice. Hydromania (talk) 06:24, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Gaza humanitarian crisis is a redirect (it should appear as a green link) so it won't be possible to redirect or merge to it. So you might want to look at ITS target article. Liz Read! Talk! 05:00, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - and rename article without using the term 'epidemic', as there is no metric that describes a cluster of three cases as an epidemic. My preference is to use the term 'cases' or 'outbreak' as per Bearian's reasoning and suggestion on 16 August 2024 immediately before AfD was relisted. AllPurposeScientistblah 11:01, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- I should add that I generally agree with the original reasoning 2 weeks ago, but the situation appears to be more clearly defined now. AllPurposeScientistblah 11:05, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

- Comment: mastaba is not an appropriate redirect target, as he is not mentioned there. It's clear that he's only notable as the person who was buried in his mastaba, though, so the AfD discussion here should centre on whether Mastaba of Seneb-Neb-Af is notable (we can rename the article after the AfD if so). -- asilvering (talk) 18:22, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oh, thanks for that, Asilvering. I think we should redirect this article somewhere for now since Mastaba of Seneb-Neb-Af hasn't been created yet. Is there any target you can think of? I wouldn't support renaming because the article is a mess; lacks sources and sufficient context. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 21:03, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

- I don't understand your comment. We know it belongs to him; it's got his name on it. -- asilvering (talk) 22:52, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- @SafariScribe, it's much better to respond to comments as a reply rather than rewriting your initial talk page comment. To reply to your new comment: XOR'easter is not making any kind of claim about Seneb-Neb-Af's notability. They're saying that the tomb could be mentioned in the article Dashur, since that's where the tomb is. -- asilvering (talk) 16:20, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oh! Danke. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 16:56, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- To be clear on my stance, I think the tomb could be mentioned there, but that it's not so important or well-reported (at this point) to be worth doing so. -- asilvering (talk) 19:14, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. Okay, having looked into this a bit more, I don't think we should redirect this at all, since this is a very new finding that has only just been reported on in popular press. We don't even have a site report yet as far as I can tell? I don't think a mention is due on Dashur, and I don't think anyone searching for this name will be well-served by a redirect, either. -- asilvering (talk) 23:35, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]- Shahid Doran Metro Station (Shiraz) (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)
I am proposing this page and all other seperate articles for each station on this metro line to be deleted. They all fail notability criteria for stations (see WP:STATION) and most are unsourced, single sentence articles, proving their lack of notability. Some of the stations on the line already lack a saperate page. All relevant information for each station is on the parent article (Shiraz Metro). This includes every station name in order, a map, whether the station has connections, whether it is active, and the year it was opened. Therefore, the separate articles are unnecessary and go against Wikipedia criteria for separate articles SJD Willoughby (talk) 20:15, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
I am also nominating the following related pages because, as mentionned, they are all undersouced, unnotable, with many mistakes:

- Merge and redirect to a new article about the line they are on. The level of detail is too great for the main metro article but there isn't enough information (at least not yet) in English to support stand-alone articles. However, like the vast majority of rapid transit stations, the stations are plausible search terms to we should take readers directly to the content we have rather than hoping search results (which may be several clicks/taps away) always prominently return the relevant articles at the top of the list (which cannot be guaranteed). Thryduulf (talk) 00:33, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Not sure what you mean by "the level of detail is too great for the main metro article" as there is no detail and 90% of the info on the separate articles can also by found on the metro article SJD Willoughby (talk) 01:05, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Correct me if I'm wrong) I think Thryduulf is suggesting that the information about each line be split out from the main Shiraz Metro article to a dedicated article for each line (for example Line 1 (Shiraz Metro), Line 2 (Shiraz Metro) etc), before redirecting the articles about the individual stations to the respective lines they serve (eg Razi Metro Station (Shiraz) to the new line 1 article), which is something we usually do for metro systems. As another example, International Airport station (Ürümqi Metro) currently redirects to the line it is on, that is Line 1 (Ürümqi Metro), instead of the system, in this case Ürümqi Metro.
- As for me, I would be supportive of the above measure, but since the articles haven't been created yet, the current proposal to redirect to Shiraz Metro works for me too. S5A-0043Talk 08:05, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

- "This article is about an Iranian film that was recorded in Iran according to the sources available in the article. If the article is lacking in content, it is likely that the user who created it did not have sufficient information and was unable to provide further edits. As you may have noticed, a 'stub' template has been added at the end of the article, indicating that editors are encouraged to help expand the article by adding more information. According to this procedure, the article needs more time to be completed.

- A statement is made that is not logical. You say there are no sources, so what are the sources listed in the references section for? This has been officially announced as a certain type of film and has been screened as a cinematic movie in Iran and registered on IMDb. You shouldn't compare this article, which pertains to Iran, with an article related to the United States, because it was created by an editor who has limited knowledge about Iranian cinema, and this will be corrected over time with the help of other editors. Unfortunately, you made a hasty decision to delete this article, which is not logical and violates Wikipedia's rules. This article is still new and was created just a month ago, and a stub template has been added to allow editors to contribute, with credible sources also cited. 5.233.174.226 (talk) 17:36, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

The creating editor has had this draft declined several times at WP:AFC and has expressed the firm opinion that it should be in mainspace in its current form. They have the right to disagree with reviewers. I have accepted the draft and am submitting it to AfD on the simple basis that the several reviewers who declined it may have a different view from the community. Consensus is our governing mantra, and will be formed now. I view this as a very poorly referenced offering that does not verify its subject's notability. I have reviewed each of the 22 alleged references. Of the 22 I find only a couple that have any form of real coverage about Afsheen, several which are track listings, which add no clue to verifying notability, several more which are pure churnalism - breathy notices of new releases, at least one which has no mention of Afsheen, several interviews with Asheen (we have no interest in what he says, we are only interested in what is said about him.) 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 18:41, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

- Criteria for composers and lyricists
- For the WikiProject, see Wikipedia:Composers.
- Composers, songwriters, librettists or lyricists, may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition. - "there are over 20 notable composition that even have their own WIKIPEDIA articles." Mentioned in over 23 sources I added to the article.
- Has written musical theatre of some sort (e.g., musicals, operas) that was performed in a notable theatre that had a reasonable run, as such things are judged in their particular situation, context, and time.
- Has had a work used as the basis for a later composition by a songwriter, composer, or lyricist who meets the above criteria.
- Has written a composition that has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers.
- Has been listed as a major influence or teacher of a composer, songwriter, or lyricist that meets the above criteria.
- Appears at reasonable length in standard reference books on their genre of music.

- Delete I don't see notability of any flavour, be it WP:GNG, WP:MUSICBIO, WP:CREATIVE or otherwise. The fundamental problem here is that an association with several notable musicians and/or musical works is being whipped up to a claim of share-of-notability for everyone involved, as in the old proverb that "success has many fathers" etc., which just doesn't cut it. This individual may well be talented, for all I know, and might one day become notable, but just isn't there yet. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:08, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- @DoubleGrazing Hi! I think you deliberately ignored my comment about WP:COMPOSER criteria #1, because you declined my draft. Rules are the same for all. If I see something wrong, I say it, and I believe it is fine to point it out. I may not be an editor with many years of experience- but this is the rule about WP:COMPOSER J2009j (talk) 19:12, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- He also produced a few dozen song so also meets WP:CREATIVE. You can check that in Discography, with all the CDs. I believe you did not check.
- You also contradict yourself with this "share-of notability". What do the rules say- "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work."
- Same goes to composer, he wrote alone and in team "Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition".
- Let's be objective. If you do not like someone's article, it does not mean you should make claims that are clearly false, and contradict Wikipedia rules.
- The person wrote a dozen songs that have wikipedia page - and you write "I know, and might one day become notable, but just isn't there yet." But I see editors who decline this draft, accept this one Ryan Trey. That is clearly bias, so I am defending it. I hope all can make objective decisions.

- Delete: Does not meet any SNGs, ANYBIO, or GNG. The creator has repeatedly tried to convince me that they meet WP:NMUSICIAN #2, #8, #10, #11, etc. They do not. They are listed as a producer on some songs that meet those criteria, but Afsheen is not the musician and it does not really help their notability. There are a few trivial mentions in reliable sources, and a few pieces in random blogs. Not enough to meet GNG or write a verifiable article. To the creator: the amount of review requests you've sent to editors is crazy. More than half your live contributions are talk page review requests about various drafts of yours. You've asked for a review of this draft twice on Timtrent's talk page, three times on SafariScribe's talk page, on Randompersonediting's talk page, on Wikishovel's talk page, on Shenaall's talk page, on Theroadislong's talk page, once on Paper9oll's talk page, on Bsoyka's talk page, on Qcne's talk page, on my talk page, two times at the AfC help desk, and at the Teahouse. This is textbook forum shopping and you've already been warned about this. The only times I've seen editors so concerned about re-reviews and waiting have been when they have had financial stakes in the topic. C F A 💬 21:59, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I added a category it meets, which you seem to ignore. WP:COMPOSER. I believe it exists on Wikipedia for this specific case. I added multiple reliable sources such as CD with work credits. I did not like it when I saw the editor Safari accepted this article Ryan Trey, while declining mine. This reminded me of some kind of financial stakes. Correct me if I am wrong. I am open to discuss. This article is only based on interviews on random sites, and yet all my question regarding the category of composers I found were ignored by same editors who know each other. I believe it is more than fair for me to express these concerns.
- Why there is such a category like WP:COMPOSER on Wikipedia then if main editors just ignore my questions about it?
- For the WikiProject, see Wikipedia:Composers.
- Composers, songwriters, librettists or lyricists, may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition. - "there are over 20 notable composition that even have their own WIKIPEDIA articles." Mentioned on the official CD records, and over 23 sources I added to the article.

This [1] and [2], neither of which are reliable sources per Project Album [3], which I've used to review past musical articles here. Being nominated for a Latin Grammy is an indicator of notability, but we still need sourcing that discusses the subject at hand.

Her gold medal in 2013 was in a youth division, which is not considered to show WP notability. The World Military Games have never been thought to show WP notability in the martial arts--a number of American martial artists who won medals there have had their articles deleted. Some of the women's TKD divisions didn't even have enough competitors to award the 4 medals (gold, silver, 2 bronze) allocated. The other events mentioned are minor ones.

- @Gidonb: Articles can be cleaned up, but one sitting there with a UPE tag for seven years suggests that it will not be cleaned up. Therefore, the subject's PROF score is irrelevant, because it is better to have a red link that might prompt natural creation of an article rather than indefinitely continuing to host content that violates Wikipedia's TOS. BD2412 T 03:42, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. I didn't find any evidence of heavily cited works that could pass WP:PROF#C1, and although the article lists many books I found only two reviews of one of them [4] [5], not enough for WP:AUTHOR. The article lists nothing else that suggests notability. So although there is visible evidence of UPE in the form of the block log of the article creator rather than (as so often) merely the unsubstantiated opinion of the nominator, I think we can delete on the basis of notability alone without considering the UPE. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:06, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

I believe this page should be deleted due to no encyclopedic value and numerous WP:BLP and Original Research violations that make rescuing this page impossible. Whizkin (talk) 05:29, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Further arguments:
- Overly Broad and Non Educational: Approximately 40% of Israel's population could be included in this list, making it excessively broad (by the way, note that in modern times many people are second or third generation mixed Ashkenazi/Mizrahi origins which further increases the percentage of people that can be included). Israeli Jews can be much better classified by specific country of origin (and indeed we have such categories). Furthermore broadly categorizing random, secular individuals based on their supposed ethnic origin reduces people's identities to simplistic binary labels that offer no value. For example, the fact that Gilad Shalit is Ashkenazi is completely meaningless.
- Vague classification: Jewish identities, particularly in Israel, do not always fit neatly into categories like Ashkenazi, Mizrahi, or Sephardi. These labels are tied to religious traditions that go back hundreds of years and do not necessarily correspond to specific countries of origin. For example, a person of Georgian Jewish descent could be either Ashkenazi or non-Ashkenazi, not to mention the many people that have a mixed heritage.
- Inaccurate and Original Research : The vast majority of non-observant Jews on this list do not have reliable sources confirming their classification as Ashkenazi. For many individuals, there is no direct citation that verifies their inclusion in this category. Attempting to infer whether a person is Ashkenazi based on their last name, or even their parent's country of origin constitutes original research. Not to mention that many of the inferences are plain wrong, such as in the cases of Mili Avital and Zefania Carmel. This is also a major BLP violation which alone should result in deleting most of the people on the list.
- Offensive and Bordering on Racist: Classifying individuals, particularly secular Jews, and Jews of mixed heritage, as Ashkenazi or Mizrahi/Sephardi without their self-identification can be seen as offensive. The page risks causing harm by labeling people in ways that they may not identify with.
- For these reasons, this page is harmful, does not serve a meaningful purpose and should be deleted. Whizkin (talk) 05:42, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

As the once and maybe still dominant minority there is also little interest in this group.

Nana 10 was quite popular and is perhaps worthy of an article, however the article is ridiculously short. Nana 10 was an activity of Channel 10 (Israel), where it is properly mentioned however ALL DETAILS ARE MISSING at Channel 10 (Israel). As a totally IMPROPER SPINOUT it should be merged into Channel 10.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Basically a WP:REDUNDANTFORK of Gaza humanitarian crisis.
More importantly, off all the given sources, only a single one (The National) uses the term "epidemic" in its own voice, with 2 more quoting the Gaza Health Ministry's declaration of an epidemic. RS hasn't been using the term epidemic (probably because as of now there haven't been any confirmed cases yet. There are strong fears of a coming epidemic, and polio has been found in the sewage, but thankfully no infections). At the very least the article needs to be considerably shortened, and name changed to "Polio discoveries" or something. Violates Crystal Ball. It's also not being (significantly) covered by RS on its own, but rather as part of the broader crisis. Hydromania (talk) 03:44, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Gaza humanitarian crisis - Wouldn't be opposed to recreating the article later if more sources begin to call the Polio issue an epidemic, but a redirect would suffice for right now. Jdcomix (talk) 13:33, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Redirecting the current title if the term "epidemic" is not being used by multiple reliable sources would violate WP:NDESC. Dclemens1971 (talk) 15:17, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Merge with Gaza humanitarian crisis. My first impression is that we should probably redirect. Now to read with care... Yeah, merge with Gaza humanitarian crisis. Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:24, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Move or merge. There are plenty of reliable sources with significant coverage, so deleting it isn’t warranted. If kept, a move or rename to 2024 Gaza Strip polio outbreak or the like would be appropriate. I don’t oppose the merger, however the main article could get filled with a lot of more important and less important trivia; see what happened at one time to Palestinian law. Bearian (talk)

- Keep - and rename article without using the term 'epidemic', as there is no metric that describes a cluster of three cases as an epidemic. My preference is to use the term 'cases' or 'outbreak' as per Bearian's reasoning and suggestion on 16 August 2024 immediately before AfD was relisted.

BLP which relies mainly on self-published sources for a range of self-promo claims. Many of the sources were duplicates (to increase the apparent numbers perhaps). No proof of anything.

- The claim to delete the page based on "no proof of anything," along with references to conspiracy theories and paid black PR articles from the 2020 U.S. Presidential election period, only serve to weaken the deletion request and undermine the credibility and objectivity of the editor.

The Fall of Tal Afar in June 1920 was the signal for a general uprising of all the tribes in the north. It spread to the middle of the Euphrates, and the position became serious
. There are other works I see that describe it as the "Mesopotamian Rebellion of 1920", if that would help with a source search. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:03, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. According to Michael Andrew Kappelmann, Parallel Campaigns: The British in Mesopotamia, 1914–1920, and the United States in Iraq, 2003–2004 (2014), p. 53, the "insurgent rising at Tal Afar, a Turkmen village in the northwest Mosul vilayet, was the single deadliest incident since the end of the [first world] war. . . In all, 16 British soldiers, including two officers, were dead." He cites Aylmer Haldane, The Insurrection in Mesopotamia, 1920, and Gertrude Bell, Review of the Civil Administration of Mesopotamia.

- Redirect to Space program of Turkey, maybe merge in whatever cited portions are still notable. The article as-is is severely out of date, and I'm not even sure the title is appropriate — I cannot find any current sources referring to a "Turkish Space Launch System" or "Space Launch System of Turkey" (almost all query results there are Wiki clones). Recent work appears to be on a sounding rocket/micro-satellite launcher called "Mikro Uydu Fırlatma Sistemi / Micro Satellite Launching System", but I'm not sure there is enough English-language coverage to warrant splitting it into a separate article.

- Merge with Fenerbahçe S.K. since its standalone notability is unclear per WP:GNG. TheJoyfulTentmaker (talk) 19:06, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- If a merge was to be done, looking at the target article, I think it would best be accomplished by (a) retitling the Fenerbahçe_S.K.#Fenerium section to Licensing and marketing, then (b) appending a short text along the lines of "Fenercell is a mobile network brand operated in conjunction with telephony providers.", but this would need to be supported by a reliable reference independent of the club and its partner providers. AllyD (talk) 09:58, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete or redirect: No evidence found to demonstrate that this particular fans' brand is notable. As I said above, the article text has very little about Fenercell so I don't see much to preserve under an ATD redirect and would prefer robust sourcing if text was to be added to the Fenerbahçe article but a redirect is an option.
