Contested PROD on Draft:Vincinni
Hi @Asukite, I hope you're doing well. I disagree with your decision on draftifying the article. What RS did you find that makes you believe the article could be notable? I found nothing but passing mentions and this. NotAGenious (talk) 10:35, 28 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi,
 * Per WP:DRAFTIFY, a new article can be moved to draft during review under a relatively broad criteria merely stating that the article has potential merit. This criteria makes no mention of sources being required, only that there is a chance, even a snowball's chance, which I think qualifies here, PROD was probably appropriate, but at the same time a draft of an otherwise benign stub isn't hurting anybody, especially if there's a chance that sources, even potentially non-English ones, might arise, and another editor might be encouraged to improve articles rather than seeing their work deleted and giving up (or in the case of COI editors, become more evasive). Maybe as an NPR/page mover it's a bit of a hammer and nail situation, but I won't argue if you try to delete either of the stubs, I might even add my support. There is far too much work to do here to be worried about them (and far too many articles much more worthy of deletion). ASUKITE  12:23, 28 August 2023 (UTC) P.S. - I think those may have been among the rare candidates for WP:A7 deletion, which would be much easier than a PROD. Again, the criteria for draftifying are intentionally vague, and I tend to err on the side of caution when it comes to topics that are primarily non-English, as although I do speak several languages, Macedonian sadly is not one of them.

 * @Asukite Thank you for your response and clarification for the criteria for draftifying, I've participated the AFD. Have a nice day! NotAGenious (talk) 14:15, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
