Khazar University School of Humanities and Social Sciences

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:GNG, and a BEFORE search isn't looking good. It is full of advertising fluff, and is solely referenced to a source from the university itself. If any independent sources could be found, it should still be merged into the main Khazar University article, and this deleted as it is of little use as a redirect. Kevo327 recommended that I take a look at the Khazar University articles, so any delete !vote from them should be considered as part of the nomination. Mako001 (C) (T)  10:27, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete as this doesn't appear to be notable. Not surprising really considering it's a department of Khazar University and departments are rarely notable on their own. On that, I don't think it's worth a merge or a redirect. For that matter someone could probably nominate Khazar University for deletion also since it's sources aren't great either. That said I'm not recommending anyone nominate it, just pointing out that it's probably not worth merging or redirecting this to another article that probably isn't up to snuff either. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:56, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Regarding sourcing, I think that at least sources could be found for the main article, unlike the department ones. Also, the university teaches largely in English, so I would be surprised if any Azerbaijani language sources could be found and not English ones. I'm also thinking of taking a trip to the az.wiki, as these articles seem to have counterparts there. I wonder if they are also self-saucing puddings too? 😁 Mako001 (C) (T)  02:32, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree with that. I'm sure there's enough sources for the main article. A lot of times people will create forks because they think everything needs it's own article or something and often times it at the cost of the article for the main topic being well referenced. Which then leads to both being deleted when there could have just been one good article from the start. The whole thing is a vicious cycle. --Adamant1 (talk) 16:55, 18 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom and Adamant1, guess I can be considered a co-nominator. - Kevo3 2 7 (talk) 20:58, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks Kevo327, I'm trying to ensure that, if the Khazar Univeristy paid editors come after either of us over nuking their handiwork, they won't be able to try to say that either of us are engaging in canvassing, or similar, as we are making it as transparent as possible.

 * Probably a good way to approach it. There's been a lot of paid editors going after people lately for some reason. Especially with articles related to schools. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:17, 15 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete fails WP:GNG and there is not much coverage in my WP:BEFORE.--  Ts12rAc talk to me 11:19, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
