The result was soft delete. WP:REFUND applies, but only for a sourced recreation. After 3 weeks, the article is still as entirely unsourced as it has been since 2008, making deletion mandatory per WP:V.  Sandstein  18:24, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Foundation for Effective Politics

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Few references in media, does not meet WP:GNG and WP:IRS. Unreferenced article.  Shobhit102 |  talk  04:04, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep Notability isn't determined by sources in the article, but by coverage in existing sources. Per WP:GNG sources do not have to be in English, and searching the Russian name yields two good sources in Russian. Here is one entirely about the Foundation from gazeta.ru, one of the most popular new sites in Russia. Another from ria.ru a state-run news source in Russi is here. I don't speak Russian, so I don't really know where to look for more sources, but the fact that two relatively prominent Russian news organizations have written two separate articles on the topic convinces me that this is notable.

 * Keep between Wugapodes' sources and Media and Power I think there is more than sufficient to prove notability. It is a constantly talking body (less so now, but heavily over the years) so I'd be shocked not to come across plenty more sources that can meet sigcov if need be.
