Not notable enough, no reliable sources barely any information only bias sources if found based on research it should be deleted. Artaxiad 22:30, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete even if it was sourced, it hardly qualifies as notable.--Domitius 22:53, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep, it is a reality, has enough sources, need to development.Must.T C 10:24, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- That is your defense? if this is a "reality" good for it. It does NOT have enough sources. Artaxiad 10:28, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Listen, I don't know what is going on, but I think that you guys should give it a rest. As far as notability goes, the main criteria is the outside referrals to an organization/person/etc. It has its own file in the MIPT Database [2]. I haven't done more research on it to be honest. Now, I don't want to get into an argument over how many attacks a group must have carried out in order to have a page in Wikipedia and what makes those "attacks" notable, but the article looks descent enough, is concise, has an outside referral from a reasonable non-partisan specialized source and doesn't violate any Wiki rules as far as I see (WTA, OR etc). Keeping it cool, what seems to be the problem with this article? (for a notability sidenote, check this out: Category:Communist parties of Turkey - there is even a "party" in there which I know for a fact is run by ten people from an office in a Paris suburb! :)) Baristarim 10:54, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Your going too far off topic. Artaxiad 10:57, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- True, my last comment (and this) was/is off topic.. I had been wanting to tell others what a WP:N violation that category is!! What is this for example? New Build-up organization? They surely must have been running out of ideas for a name, weren't they? Baristarim 11:17, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Okay. Artaxiad 11:48, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete I don't believe it has enough sources to provide any reason that the article can grow/develop anymore than it already has. The group was responsible for one "attack", two decades ago. --Rayis 13:13, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep the only feasible way to deal with political movements is to consider them notable if they have a name and a source. trying to judge importance will inevitably produce irreconcilable disputes. The discussion here is a good example of why that's the way to think about these. DGG 16:17, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep or Rename to Armenian Red Army, as it is how the group is referred to by MIPT. denizTC 16:29, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete per Rayis. Similar groups appear every once in a while to claim "an attack" in the Middle East and are not taken seriously or covered. There must be a dozen groups that have claimed a single attack in Iraq alone and not much coverage of those "1-hit wonders". - Fedayee 23:19, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Question What will happen to Kemalettin Demirer if this page is deleted? denizTC 23:24, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- We request speedy deletion, per redirect to non-existence page. Artaxiad 23:25, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep- the event is widely recorded in many languages as part of the "armenian terrorism" [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]. The proposal of this Afd is to remove this and the other article which mentioned the event "Kemalettin Demirer". I believe this article should be kept until someone writes a new article about all of these related terrorist events; then both Red Armenian army and Kemalettin Demirer can redirect to it. John Vandenberg 00:56, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Post-Armenian Genocide timeline; I have added an entry for this event on that timeline, as it provides more context, and less weight to this minor event. John Vandenberg 01:07, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Per Rayis. ROOB323 05:18, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Rayis -- Aivazovsky 12:18, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Has a source, seems notable. --A.Garnet 17:37, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I don't believe any of the nominator's arguments justify a deletion but only some rewriting.--Doktor Gonzo 12:38, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep Assassination of a diplomat should make it notable enough to be included in Wikipedia. If we have an article on Khachkars (which I totally support), we should well have an article on a terrorist organization. More references should be collected, but I can't see the problem with the current ones.--Scientia Potentia 16:45, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Delete Per nom and WP:NOTABILITY.-- Ευπάτωρ Talk!! 18:42, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
