Baghdad operation

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Unnecessary WP:FORK from Abbas Doran providing nothing new. A 2 plane bombing mission where 1 plane was shot down isn't notable and fails WP:GNG Mztourist (talk) 06:15, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep: Meet WP:GNG: planes in order to show Baghdad's airspace as unsafe and with the aim of preventing the holding of the summit of the Non-Aligned Movement in Baghdad.--Patricia (Talk)  14:46, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable. Intothatdarkness 16:53, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - Any notability would seem to be on the meeting of the NAM... a meeting for which I cannot find and article (or strong RS). The operation itself in clearly NN. Cheers, Last1in (talk) 19:01, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
 * see this :Non-Aligned Movement Summits. (1892 cancelled due to Iran–Iraq War).--Patricia (Talk)  13:38, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
 * That's why I was confused. The NAM article shows the 6th (1979, Havana) and 7th (1983 New Delhi), and the only reference to 1982 in the article is the publication date of a source. The article in question here has a very weak source (it's hard to call "a semi-official news agency of the Iranian government" an impartial RS), but I was able to find these two  that might add value to the NAM article. I still see no value in this one as a freestanding article. Cheers, Last1in (talk) 14:01, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I have added a paragraph for Baghdad Operation to the NAM article, summarising this fascinating incident and included the new sources. I omitted only the Mehr citation which I just cannot justify as an RS. I kept the dubious shahid-dowran.ir one simply because I can't confirm anything negative about the source itself, even though it certainly carries a highly-partizan tone. If there is someone who reads Persian natively, your input would be invaluable. Google Translate just doesn't cut it for evaluating the quality of a source overall. This does not impact the discussion of whether this subject deserves its own article (I still believe it does not), but the NAM article deserved at least a summary.
