[edit] Heroes of Azerbaijan

Heroes of Azerbaijan (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article is unsourced opinion. There may or may not be an award of a similar name awarded by the Azerbaijan government, but an article should focus on the fact that it's the government's opinion and on the official nature of the award. The link provided is not in English, so I can't tell whether it's just one more person's opinion. In general, the article hopelessly POV and a guaranteed source of edit wars. Imagine Rush Limbaugh and Al Gore preparing lists of "Heroes of America" and comparing them. Might be a recreation of deleted material, but I don't know what the old page name was.

Richfife, first of all, why are you rushing to nominate articles for deletion? You wrote a few hours ago: "OK then, if I don't get some evidence that this is an official award in the next day or two, I'm going to nominate the article for deletion as original research. - Richfife 18:07, 28 May 2007 (UTC)". Note that day or two have not passed yet. Secondly, English-language sources have already been provided. As you see, this is not an unsourced opinion. See the article's Talk for more. ---Zondi 16:08, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Withdraw nom Zondi has provided the necessary backup for most of the article except the last entry (Babak). More on the talk page - Richfife 16:43, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
