Tebyan Cultural Institute

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Per WP:NOTDIR. Simply stating what the website is about is not grounds for inclusion.  Dr Strauss   talk   15:59, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment There are were two separate articles whose AfD notices both point to this one discussion: Tebyan Cultural Institute, created 15:35, 31 July 2017‎ and Tebyan Cultural and Information Institute, created 16:18, 1 August 2017‎ by a copy-and-paste move.

 * From WP:EDITATAFD: Moving the article while it is being discussed can produce confusion (both during the discussion and when closing using semi-automated closing scripts). If you do this, please note it on the deletion discussion page, preferably both at the top of the discussion (for new participants) and as a new comment at the bottom (for the benefit of the closing administrator). In the light of that, and as the move was done wrongly anyway, I think it is reasonable to turn the second version of the article into a redirect to the original, and will now do so. By all means move the article, properly, after the AfD has been resolved.  Pam  D  15:51, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep. Tebyan Cultural Institute is a notable organization in Iran. I have added additional references, such as BBC, ABC, Dailymail and the Iran Book News Agency website, to the page that confirm the notability of this institute. There are many other notable sources that can be added to improve the page in Wikipedia. I also propose to transfer the page to a new page entitled "Tebyan Cultural and Information Institute" that holds the complete name of this organization.Amidewiki (talk) 15:12, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep: it looks as if the list of sources can be used to source the article better. Pam  D  15:41, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment I note that this article was brought to AfD within one hour of its creation, with no tags assigned to prompt improvement before that. Pam  D  16:03, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - seems to meet WP:GNG. Some of the references in the article (BBC and ABC) are referring to "tebyan.net" not the institute itself, but this, this and this seem pretty conclusively to establish notability. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:16, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
