Russian Bazaar

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Of the five references in the article, one is a deadlink and three are to the Russian Bazaar itself. Therefore, I am not seeing a case for notability here p  b  p  21:55, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete As per above - sngle original source as main reference to article, no evidence availabile on internet as to it being noteable as per WP:NOTE seems clear cut to me on the evidence available. Amortias (T)(C) 22:09, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Reluctant delete. I'm having trouble finding any coverage in reliable sources, beyond the one New York Times ref in the article. I tend towards keeping articles about newspapers, as I think it's valuable for Wikipedia to provide coverage of its own sources, or potential sources, but unless independent reliable sources can be found this can't be kept.

 * Delete I am sympathetic to Pburka's reluctance, and have spent a fair bit of time trying to look for something, anything, that would get us the second half of WP:GNG, over and above the NYT mention. One highbeam article has a mention, but sourced to a journalist from the paper. What convinced me toward deletion was that not a single library save the Library of Congress claims to collect this newspaper, per WorldCat. I also tried the usual searches on Gweb, Gbooks, Gscholar, and Highbeam.  --j⚛e deckertalk 04:47, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
