Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/گيجولزاده

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Speedy deleted - nonsense - Note that there is no criterion for speedying for not being in english, unless the article is at that language's WP. On the other hand nonsense, coyvio, etc, criteria apply regardless of language. - Nabla 17:08, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

• Keep for now, give it a little more time for the translation request. I have no clue what it says so I cannot speak on the value of this article itself, but it should be given the benefit of the doubt. Once the translation request is expired, if no one has fixed it, then it can be deleted. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 15:06, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep, article is already under a time-limited translation request. This nomination is premature. --Dhartung | Talk 15:32, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - Gfzh - there's a reason why the translation tag exist- and a translation tag does not translate into a delete tag.--danielfolsom 16:38, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
• USERFY somewhere and Delete - I do not think foreign language articles should be allowed to stay "up" while translation requests are being processed. Corpx 18:03, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete The title of the article is the name of the creator User:Gijoolzade. I can't be bothered to revive my language skills enough to translate the rest but that should be enough to sow suspicion (name gets precisely 1 Google hit, viz. the WP user page itself). I doubt if there's anything to save here. --Folantin 18:56, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete How can we possibly know that it's not libelous until someone who knows Arabic reviews it? It could be anything, including gibberish. Isn't there some kind of speedy-delete rule about non-English postings? Noroton 20:58, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
  • They can be speedily deleted only if they already exist on another Wikimedia project. (In this case, ar.wikipedia.org) The Arabic Wikipedia has no such article. Gracenotes^T § 03:15, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
    • Same applies for the Persian Wikipedia (the language is mentioned below). If the alphabet isn't Latin, it's likely I can't identify it :) Gracenotes^T § 08:40, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per Noroton. I disagree with the idea that a foreign language article placed on the English Wikipedia is entitled to remain for 14 days before being deleted, while an English-language article can be speedied in minutes, or go to WP:PROD or WP:AFD and be deleted within 5 days. Foreign language articles should be deleteable speedily or within 5 days too. --Metropolitan90 03:34, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Update Definitely Persian. It's saying that Gijoolzade was the discoverer of the element gulbulium (!). --Folantin 07:11, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete if Folantin is correct (and I have no reason to doubt him!) This could then even fall under CSD A1 as patent nonsense. Pedro |  Chat  07:14, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Attempt at translation "Gijoolzade: doctor and discoverer of the element gulbulium. Gijoolzade took a great deal of effort to make this discovery and afterwards because of the discovery he received a prize [not sure of the details of the award but it possibly involves a “big rose”]". Now we have a translation of sorts can we speedy delete this dreck along with its fellow article on "gulbulium"? --Folantin 11:40, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as per nom Harlowraman 13:10, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Appears to be nonsense. --UsaSatsui 04:08, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
