National Anthem of South Ossetia

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Relatively unsourced, violates copyriğt, and generally useless. -User:Учхљёная (talk,philosophy,edits). 20:39, 20 May 2018 (UTC).
 * Keep Looking at the file, it appears to not actually violate copyright. Remove that for the reasons given for AfDing this article and it's basically WP:IDONTLIKEIT - it's the national anthem for an internationally recognized state (even though only three countries recognize it: this is no argument for whether it should be, only that it's not a fiction) and would seem to thereby be notable.

 * To be clear, I'm fully for the independence of SO, I just think the page for its National Anthem needs vast improvement or simply should be deleted. I uploaded the file, but the copyriğt concern is due to an issue raised about the lyrics by another editor. -User:Учхљёная (talk,philosophy,edits). 02:36, 21 May 2018 (UTC).
 * It would surprise me if the lyrics were in fact copyrighted as they seem to be in the public domain as the official symbol of the country under Georgian and Abkaz law (but not Ossetian?) and I am assuming this is correct: the person removing them probably did so in error. In any case, AfD is not about cleanup. The question isn't whether it should be improved or deleted - it's about whether it should be on the site, and the answer here seems to be a clear yes.

 * Keep I see no reason why even the stub should be deleted. Inkan1969 (talk) 15:38, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
