Şayan Kadın (wife of Abdülmecid I)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The article is completely unsourced and the subject doesn't seem to be notable. The main problem, however, is that this woman was not the wife of an Ottoman sultan. Per this discussion: User talk:Retrieverlove User:Retrieverlove clearly states that according to his research this lady was a treasurer or kalfa. There's no obstacle in having an article about a notable imperial treasurer (as we already have) but the main issue with this article is that not even a single sentence is backed by a reliable source. So it's unsourced and provides wrong information too, thus it confuses the readers and gives them wrong feedback. Keivan.f Talk 13:00, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. She's not listed among 27 wives of Abdulmecid at https://web.archive.org/web/20060422084735/http://4dw.net/royalark/Turkey/turkey10.htm. I can find no evidence that she was one. DrKay (talk) 15:31, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
