Dubikowski family with Ostoja coat of arms

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

Article speedy deleted from pl wiki for "Non-encyclopedic article: ahistorical family fantasies, misspelled". We should do the same. It does not seem this family is notable (WP:GNG), and WP:OR is a major issue. Sources are not possible to verify - no URLs, no ISBNs for the book, the titles of the books and other information seem to be translated from Ukrainian/Russian making it impossible to verify they even exist since Wikipedia is the only place they are used in this version. Possible hoax - hard to guess whether this is indeed OR on one's family or something at the level of Zhemao hoaxes. Pretty much all other articles of that editor need to be deleted for the same reason, I'll be nominating them shortly.

 * Delete per nom. With the caveat that I'm not a Polish speaker, the article exhibits tell-tale signs of WP:OR and there seems little hope of ascertaining WP:SIGCOV/WP:GNG. See also Biel family with Ostoja coat of arms, which possibly could have been bundled into this AfD. IgnatiusofLondon (talk) 02:41, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
 * @IgnatiusofLondon Not just that, see over a dozen of similar articles: https://xtools.wmcloud.org/pages/en.wikipedia.org/Jegi_Angelski I'll be AfDing them shortly (no bundles, don't know how to make one). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 12:32, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
 * PS. It's not that bad. The Biel article is a translation of a pl wiki article, written by a more estabilished user, and at least not as bad. Some possible OR based on primary sources too, perhaps, but the family is notable (ex. main topic of this scholarly article). So will need to review them one by one. Based on pl wiki creation by that author, this is likely another OR of theirs: [[Helena Andreevna Sangushko]. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 12:38, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Comment - Trying to get through some of the sources and it's challenging.
 * Main sources are:
 * [1 The CSHAK: F. 481, Reg. 3, Case 1185.] direct to physical documents at the Central State Historical Archives of Ukraine in Kyiv, [2 The NIAB: F. 319, Reg. 2, Case 1019 (also 3775)] are similar physical documents at the National Archives of Belarus.
 * [3 Ros Kan. The story of one kin. Kiev 2022] doesn't lead to anything as far as I can find, and [4 S. Dubikowski, Palimpsest of the Gods, Kiev, 2020] is this book. If the quotes in the article are anything to go by, one or both of these are a wild ride: [...] this Hierophant-Warrior dynasty, which ruled almost the all ancient World, bore the unique Devine kingship. It was a Universal Vedic Slovic-Aryan civilization existed for millennia in the territory from Dublin to Vladivostok [...].
 * All the other sources are only used in the sections on land owned and members of the family, and appear to mainly be lists of members of nobility, military regiments, land ownership records or other information that alone probably does not meet GNG requirements. I checked one and it does exist, even if the way it is presented seems to be WP:OR as it links to knight rather than cavalry, but I have not read the whole book, just verified that the book exists and the name Dubikowski is in the book: [21 Joseph Tyszkiewicz (Count.). Histoire du 17me Régt. de Cavalerie Polonaise (Lanciers du Cte. Michel Tyszkiewicz), 1812–1815. Published by WL Anczyc, 1904, p. 68.] English translation?, Polish original?

 * Delete per nom. Massive heap of WP:OR. Renata•3 04:32, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
