Garay Asadov

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested PROD. Appears to be an article about a non-notable soldier, who fails WP:SOLDIER. I couldn't find much out there that could possibly save this article, and the subject has a lack of reliable coverage overall, failing WP:GNG.  Omni Flames ( talk ) 00:21, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep for now, at least. The article makes a strong claim of notability, namely that this person was a Hero of the Soviet Union, that country's highest honor. That meets WP:SOLDIER in my view. I think that we should assume good faith of the new editor, , and help them learn how to provide references for the series of unreferenced stubs they have created. I will support deletion if an experienced  Russian speaking editor concludes that that the article is a hoax. Cullen328   Let's discuss it  02:00, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's a little difficult for me to determine which are reliable sources, but there are several that attest to him being a Hero of the Soviet Union, which would automatically satisfy SOLDIER. An Azerbaijani government site does note that there is a "memorial house" named for him in Aggol National Park and the State Art Gallery of Azerbaijan mentions a statue of him created by Zivar Mammadova.

 * Keep per WP:SOLDIER and give the new editor time to mold the article with references. Chase (talk) 03:46, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:SOLDIER - Asadov is notable as a Hero of the Soviet Union, a recipient of the highest award of his country. Kges1901 (talk) 09:35, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, because Hero of the Soviet Union passes WP:SOLDIER, but ask the editor who created it to stop creating unsourced stubs with images of dubious copyright status: the image in this article is uploaded as "Own work", which looks highly unlikely. Pam  D  12:14, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
