Ayyub khan
Stub, almost looks like a hoax to me.TrackerTV (CW|Castform|Green Valley) 03:05, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, looks like a hoax to me, no google hits Michael Greiner 03:16, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Hoax article. 1ne 03:33, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep There are no google hits on this guy, because most media and information produced tends to be concentrated on modern individuals. Its certainly not vanity, only a guy with knowledge on medieval russian history should be able to comment on this person. I have notifies User:Untifler who created this article. Maybe he could give us some insights on this article. --Ageo020 04:14, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete —  Well its here now, and shows no importance. If it does, I'll change to keep if notifed on my talk page. SynergeticMaggot 04:28, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: "Ruler of the Kipchak commonwealth" is a prima facie claim of importance. Why specifically do people think this is a hoax? Gazpacho 05:13, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * neutral Delete unless sourced . I don't know if it's a hoax, but in this state it is unverifiable. —Quarl (talk) 2006-08-17 05:31Z 
 * Strong keep: plenty of Google hits if you search for Russian version of the name as given in the article (see for yourself). This is certainly not a hoax. int19h 05:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Indeed. Unfortunately, all those results are Russian.  Maybe someone's willing to make a trip to the library to find some English-language references? —Quarl (talk) 2006-08-17 06:15Z 
 * Keep. Seems legit, but my po-Russkii isn't up to translating these sources. Perhaps an expand template is approriate? Grutness...wha?  06:44, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Ageo020, int19h, and Grutness. --HResearcher 09:59, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as far as I can tell is a serios historical account of an invasion of Bulgaria and their attempts to poison rather than fight him.    Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  12:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, and figure out a way to disambiguate this person from the Ayub Khan who was a much more recent leader in Pakistan. Smerdis of Tlön 13:48, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand, the person who mentioned the invasion of Bulgaria and the poison should probably add that to the article as its not there now. ONUnicorn 14:40, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, assuming good faith. Gazpacho 16:47, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Nomination understandable but should stay in the light of the above. Potentially a very worthwhile article. Soo 17:06, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Subject matter clearly warrants it. Obviously, needs some rewrite. Also we should consider renaming it with the K capitalized. Nlsanand 18:43, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep As a medieval ruler he's certainly notable and while unverified, I'm not convinced he's unverifiable. Mallanox 21:38, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
