 * Delete: The main content of the article is a WP:COPYVIO from the gallery's own website, so would have to go if the article survived - I left it for the moment as it contains the nearest to any claim to notability. However the given references are dead links, and I am not seeing anything substantial: a Russian Google search delivers some guide listings and a brief unsigned piece on the gallery owner, but it isn't evident that it is a WP:RS on the founder or her enterprise. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH, WP:GNG. AllyD (talk) 07:20, 19 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep: i've updated some information on the gallery and the activity. The main aspect, i guess, is this the only gallery representing artists from Abkhazia on the international market. I will try to maintain the page better - advise is very welcome, Thank you. Nino (talk) 23:35, 22 September 2015 (UTC) User:NKuprava (Nino) is the creator of this article. Disclosure added per WP:AFDFORMAT.
 * Delete - Non-notable organization with a lack of reliable sources. Most of the article is unsourced except for the final paragraph. The first source just mentions the gallery, the second and third is simply about an exhibiton they held (and even then the sources also just mention the gallery), and the fourth and fifth also talks about another exhibiton they held. None of the sources listed talks in great detail about the gallery itself, and they do not assert the notability of the place.  Aerospeed  (Talk) 12:31, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. I checked all the references in the article.  Of the ones written in English, none meed the requirements of WP:RS.  I do not read Russian, so I was unable to evaluate all the sources.  -- RoySmith (talk) 12:42, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - While I appreciate the interest of the article's creator, searches don't show enough for this gallery to meet the notability criteria as per WP:GNG or WP:NCORP.  Onel 5969  TT me 15:15, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
