Donkervoort D8

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Donkervoort D8: Was created in draft space, and then in article space, which prevents a move back to draft space. Author also created Donkervoort D7. Does not satisfy product notability or general notability. Created by a blocked sockpuppet, but there have been good-faith edits since then, so not an open-and-shut G5. See analysis of sources below.

Only one independent significant source, does not satisfy notability, and the work of a sock. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:02, 12 May 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment The Car & Driver and BBC articles seem to give the topic enough WP:SIGCOV to pass WP:GNG. But since the article is written by a sock, someone would need to validate what's written matches the sources (don't have a good understanding of cars to do this myself).

 * Merge selectively, while copying the better sources, ALL of these model articles into Donkervoort. We do not need ANY such stub article on models. If it's just a paragraph, it should not be spun off! gidonb (talk) 00:24, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - while added by a sock, C&D and Auto Express are dependable enough sources. BBC page poses no problems for me. I will be happy to add more sources and verify any reliable ones already there.  Mr.choppers &#124;   ✎  16:12, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Missvain (talk) 15:56, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Plenty of sources available. The BBC one loads fine (I think is another version of it], and you can find more with a simple Google News search. Maybe it could be merged back into the Donkervoort article, but it seems fine as a stand-alone one. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 09:19, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep after article was expanded. Notability was not my concern. Information governance considerations were and these have been dealt with by now. gidonb (talk) 01:23, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
