Gantiadi (journal)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

De-PROD'd and sources were added, however, they're all trivial mentions and don't constitute SIGCOV that would meet WP:GNG and/or WP:NPERIODICAL. I tried adding the names of its editors in Georgian to my Georgian-language search but didn't get anything substantive about the journal. It doesn't have an article on Georgian wikipedia to pull from either. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 01:10, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Week keep. My impression (from its brief mentions in English-language encyclopedia surveys of Georgian literature) is that it's one of the most notable cultural journals in Georgia, but that Georgia is not generally well-served by English-language sources, especially online. I don't know Georgian. The decision would benefit from a Georgian-language speaker.Dsp13 (talk) 08:03, 16 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete, for now. I don't speak Georgian and cannot read their script, so I have to limit myself to sources in languages that I understand. Unfortunately, those sources are absolutely insufficient: just a few in-passing mentions and one of those claimed to be incorrect at that. If somebody speaking/reading Georgian can find more meaty sources I'm willing to change my !vote, but for now we have nothing on which we can base even the shortest article. --Randykitty (talk) 10:10, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep The UNESCO recognition is impressive - not many English-language journals are considered intangible cultural heritage monuments. The Georgian wiki (განთიადი (ალმანახი)) says there is an entry for the journal in the Georgian Soviet Encyclopedia, Vol. 2, Tbilisi, 1977. - p. 681. It has been noted.

 * Comment: read again. It's not UNESCO that says this, but a local agency. --Randykitty (talk) 14:44, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok. It is recognized by the "Culture for Development Indicators for Georgia", an initiative by European Union-Eastern Partnership Culture and Creativity Programme, funded by the European Union. The initiative is based upon UNESCO's Culture for Development Indicators methodology, which has been successfully implemented in many countries across the world. Good enough for me. It is one of just 36 intangible cultural heritage monuments in Georgia. I pumped up the article a bit. Aymatth2 (talk) 15:59, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
