Article about a non-notable writer and film-maker who fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:GNG. Possibly WP:UPE. Jamiebuba (talk) 21:45, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Hello, I would like it if you could please specify why the Article fails to correspond to WP:SIGCOV and WP:GNG.
 * The references provided are from independent sources, and in my opinion a significant coverage was shown in those resources about the person in question, his work, prizes/nominations, and the contribution to the Armenian culture.
 * Also, if there are any suggestions of how I can improve the Article to fully correspond to the guidelines I would very much appreciate that.
 * Thanks a lot Asti.96 (talk) 08:43, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * You may need to read the guideline for Wikipedia's General Notability Guideline which can help you know whether an article is ready for mainspace (if draft) or inclusive on wikipedia. WP: SIGCOV means Significant Coverage and WP: GNG I had already explained. I will review the article again and know how best I can try. I also see some what of promotional words WP: UPE and to avoid disputing the neutrality if any to declare whether you are paid or associated to the subject All the Best!

 * Weak delete – Subject of an Ellis Island Medal of Honor and a Tölölyan Literary Prize makes him pass ANYBIO#1, but since most sources are unreliable/mentions and not enough reliable sources, deletion is preferred, but those prizes motivated me to "weak delete" it, as it is dubious whether the prizes are well known/significant or not. But I bet that it is not documented in reliable sources that enough. Toadette  ( Let's discuss together! ) 21:18, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. As far as I can see he has good coverage. There's the Armenian Weekly, October 5, 2018 article: - The Child and the Scholar: Christopher Atamian’s A Poet in Washington Heights. Also And there's the Asbarez, December 1, 2017 article: - Christopher Atamian Named Winner of  2017 Tölölyan Literature Prize. Both of the news sites mentioned have pages here. He also contributes to Horizon Weekly.  Why Every American Should See The Promise by Christopher Atamian and Haykaram Nahapetyan, Մարտ 29, 2017 And the Armenian community is bigger than what most folk realize if you want to go down that road. I know it's not the case here, but gosh I just hope that folks in the wider community didn't realize that the Armenian ethnicity never existed until the Kardashians came along. Well there was Mike Connors back in the day. But back to this. I believe this guy seems notable on various levels. Karl Twist (talk) 09:38, 13 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @Jamiebuba I had thought why you AFD this article. Although it reads promotional but I suggest tagging and improving can work. Seeing the page alone cited works and per citations from some reliable courses, seems to pass WP: GNG and WP: SIGCOV except from removing promotional words and copy editing. Remember Deletion is not the best option when article can/may survive stand alone or WP: THREE. All the Best!  Otuọcha   (talk) 09:45, 13 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Keep: Meets WP: GNG, WP: ANYBIO, WP: SIGCOV, WP: NAUTHOR based on translations which he had won awards for. Meets WP: JOURNALIST since there are verifiable sources that he has written for notable newspapers and magazines. I can find many sources plus the notable awards he has won shows he is notable.
