Piréz people

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable fictional people invented by a small polling company, used in a local survey, no lasting significance or relevance. The only reference provided is to the polling company itself which invented this fictional term. Contested prod by the article creator. Hobartimus (talk) 13:33, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep - Hungary is a small country and Tarki is a small pollster. Does it meand that anything happening to them is insignificant or irrelevant? The story produced a vast number of online and printed articles in Hungary and lively discussion. The statistically evident hatred towards a non-existent people does have a relevant message to people living within and beyond the borders of Hungary. If this is deleted, we have more reason to delete most of the numerous enwiki articles on hoaxes and non-existing persons.--Korovioff 15:57, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - Re: "a small polling company, used in a local survey, no lasting significance or relevance" - "Tárki explores for about fifteen years with standard methods xenophobia and changes in the attitude against foreigners in the adult population of Hungary." Sik Endre, TÁRKI I will amend the article when I have a bit more time with further details. Szabozoltantamas (talk) 11:21, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep Tárki is a major Hungarian public opinion research company. They findings are used in the (Hungarian) media on daily basis. So the company is definitely notable. They findings about the Piréz people were widely covered by the Hungarian media in 2006 and 2007, both in news and op ed pieces. --Gondnok (talk) 04:00, 9 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge with Fictional country (now you have somewhere to merge to...) It's not that I don't think it was notable, it's just too short. And eh, just because the company that made them was notable doesn't mean the products are, in reposnse to some of the above arguments.


 * Oh, but I'd gladly change to keep if someone provides some of the 'lively discussions' mentioned above.
