The result was   delete. The consensus is to delete, with the particularly strong assertions that WP:1E and/or WP:VICTIM apply. If anyone wants me to email them a copy for integration of details into another article (the nature of the concerns means I'm not comfortable keeping it userfied), feel free to let me know and I will do so.

George Geritsidis

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Following disputed PRODing. The subject does not appear to be individually notable. He is mentioned solely in connection with the suppression of the Polytechnic uprising, which involved several other violent deaths, and his daughters. Constantine ✍  17:52, 29 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete — This person is not clearly the subject of substantial coverage by multiple reliable sources (mainly, the WP:RS part is lacking). Rather, he appears to have been one person within a WP:1E. Also, see WP:VICTIM for further reasons to avoid having an article about this apparent victim generally. JFHJr (㊟) 20:23, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete As I said on Talk:George Geritsidis when the Prod was removed, Notability is not inherited and there is insufficient evidence that this person was notable in his own right. AllyD (talk) 11:12, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep The subject is individually notable, as said previously, because he is mentioned as being a coverup political murder rather than another entry in the list of violent deaths of the Polytechnic uprising. It has been covered by two newspapers, one right wing and one extremely left wing, so secondary independent sources are present. Note that notability is not ONLY ascertained by extensive coverage but also by quality of coverage. Dimzam10 (talk) 18:12, 7 October 2012 (UTC)Dimzam10
 * Merge to Greek Junta Trials. He doesn't seem notable enough to have his own page per WP:BLP1E, but I think some of the content would make a good addition to the article about the trials. — Mr. Stradivarius  (have a chat) 05:11, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Greek and pre 1974 means that we are unlikely to find any English sources online. However, that doesn't mean the topic fails WP:GNG. From what the article currently says, there might be enough reliable source information in the Greek language for a Death of George Geritsidis article, but seems unlikely that there would be enough source material for a George Geritsidis biography article even in the Greek language. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 14:42, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Note that notability is not ONLY ascertained by extensive coverage but also by quality of coverage. Lastly, I added the most important source, the reference of the Greek Court Decision about the Junta Trial and where someone can find the original documents.
