Ruslan Shostak Charitable Foundation

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

It seems like the organization doesn't have enough notability and reliable sources to support its credibility, as well as insufficient media coverage from third-party sources on the given topic. 19 pick ups bought for the army is circulating in the news, but it's not about notability. possible promotion of the Ruslan Shostak persona as the author is the same for both pages DreamlarT (talk) 12:45, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep Ruslan Shostak is a notable businessman, the founder of huge national retail chains. The charitable foundation he founded, in particular, after the start of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, organized the evacuation of almost 2,000 orphans from Ukraine for a temporary stay in Turkey. There are more than enough neutral and reliable sources about both Ruslan Shostak and Ruslan Shostak Charitable Foundation, especially in Cyrillic. --Perohanych (talk) 18:22, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete it does not meet the site's notability criteria. The foundation lacks significant coverage from independent, reliable secondary sources. WP:Mill or WPREFBOMB won't halpe much, as the majority of the citations come from news releases wich fails WP:RS. Furthermore, the article reads more like a promotional piece rather than an objective encyclopedia entry. NiftyyyNofteeeee (talk) 13:15, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
 * It does meet the Wikipedia's notability criteria. The foundation has significant coverage from independent, reliable secondary sources. There are dozens of such sources. Every statement in the article is based on reliable sources in authoritative publications. The article reads as an objective encyclopedia entry. Please let me know the exact wording of the article that you believe appears to be promotional material, and I will be happy to remove it. --Perohanych (talk) 22:11, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: It would help if any of these translated sources (or a summary of their content) was brought into this discussion or added to the article. Right now, there have been no changes to the article since it was nominated so that's what editors are judging it on. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read!

 * Keep I translated 3 of the listed articles and they are substantial articles about the work of the organization. I cannot comment on the reliability of the publications themselves. I admit that I find it awkward to have an English Wikipedia article without a single English language reference. I would not object to a future Afd (maybe some years) if this organization is never covered in non-Ukrainian sources. I am assuming that there is an entry in the UA Wikipedia, but am not able to check that. Lamona (talk) 22:51, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep as redirect and merge into Ruslan Shostak. Both articles are on the shorter side and given the amount of content that'll probably be removed when both articles undergo rewriting (especially Shostak's article), it'll be best for the two to be merged so they don't each become stubs. Imo, I think this article would work great as its own section in Shostak's article, granted its rewritten and trimmed (it would also help give context for why he got a top state civil award, which the current BLP fails to answer).
