Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Elkhan Bashirov


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__. I think that some editors new to the English Wikipedia need to read up on SIGCOV and notability standards on this project. Also, next time, focus on sources, not each other. Bickering with others never persuades other editors that you are presenting a strong argument. It's a distraction from what you are trying to achieve. Liz Read! Talk! 07:13, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Fails GNG. Secondary sources lack significant coverage and fail to provide substantial information about the individual beyond routine mentions or mere references to their name. (fails WP:SIGCOV) It is evident that the examples of source citations in the article also fails the requirements. Moreover, the facts presented in the article, including the individual's activities, positions held, and awards received, do not pass the criterias of WP:NBLP guidelines and also, even with a little research, it becomes clear that these facts are not significant.

 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople and Azerbaijan. Shellwood (talk) 19:58, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep Per the following significant coverage in reliable sources:
 * offshoreleaks,
 * globalgypsum.com,
 * northata.com,
 * xalqqazeti.com,
 * turan.az
 * azerbaijan.az

Sufficient sourcing to meet GNG. Though searches such as "Elxan Bəşirov" or "Elkhan Bashirov pdf" don't yield many results? -- Jasulan .T  TT me 14:39, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
 * State award - Taraggi Medal
 * State award - Honorary Engineer Medal
 * 90 million investment


 * Significiant coverage? These are just name mentions, and in some links, there is not even any content or information at all. @Thenightaway, I'm interested in your opinion on notability of the subject. By the way, I should note that this user, who participates in this discussion (90AA123), has been blocked as one of the puppet accounts of a user who has been blocked due to undisclosed paid editing. Sura Shukurlu (talk) 16:58, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Just thought I'd mention that 90AA123 is not blocked on this project. Liz Read! Talk! 08:04, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

The person's name is included only as a participant and is not of significance that would make this article encyclopedic. Redivy (talk) 23:46, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete The sources mentioned are related to the involvement of companies and government officials, not to be used in the article.


 * You are invited to this discussion, which means voting. You are an invited participant from Azerbaijan at the invitation of user Sura Shukurlu. Your argument is not valid.  Jasulan .T  TT me 00:19, 12 March 2024 (UTC)


 * You are making a very serious accusation, you know that.However, you don't decide this, the admins decide this. All your accounts in Azerbaijan have been blocked due to many rule violations, and anyone who wants can review the text I mentioned. In all of the articles, the person only participates and has no connection with the article. If what I say is wrong, I'm ready to be banned. Redivy (talk) 00:30, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * You don't have verified evidence, but I can provide you with evidence. You make an argument but don't support it.  Jasulan .T  TT me 00:52, 12 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I think that by sending so many messages you are drawing all the attention to yourself and this will lead to you being blocked.Redivy (talk) 01:06, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete. Of the sources cited above, it's posssible that this one is sigcov; I can't tell, because of paywall. The others are absolutely not even approaching sigcov, so there would be no WP:GNG pass here even so. -- asilvering (talk) 20:22, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @Asilvering Is the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists an irrelevant source? 5.44.34.90 (talk) 21:02, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes. Please see WP:SIGCOV. -- asilvering (talk) 21:11, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @Asilvering, but you mentioned above that only one source, i.e. turan.az, is valid. Did you forget to cite the source here? SIGCOV + The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. Okey? 5.44.34.90 (talk) 21:30, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * That is also not significant coverage, and I am at a loss as to why you think it is. -- asilvering (talk) 21:31, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @Asilvering, he is a businessman who has been awarded twice by the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan. He is a well-known Honored Engineer of the Republic - https://president.az/az/articles/view/33409/print. 5.44.34.90 (talk) 21:45, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * That, too, is not significant coverage. Please refrain from pinging me about this any further. -- asilvering (talk) 21:52, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete: President of a machine plant isn't notable, the rest are as explained below. Name drops and brief mentions. Nothing for notability, appears PROMO. Oaktree b (talk) 22:48, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fails GNG and NBIO, sources in article and above are not WP:IS WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. As has been mentioned, mentions are not SIGCOV.  // Timothy :: talk  11:21, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
