Vedran Mimica

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

Ultra-short article on a Croation-Dutch architect. I suggest redirecting to Berlage Institute per WP:ATD and WP:CHEAP. gidonb (talk) 02:08, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep. Yes, the article is a stub, but it can be expanded from the corresponding article in Spanish, es:Vedran Mimica. Surprisingly, there is no corresponding article in the Croatian Wikipedia, although a search for his name there does get a few hits. See also Google Scholar at https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=Vedran+Mimica&btnG=   The Library of Congress authority page refers to these references, although I'm not sure what they are:
 * Randić & Turato, 2000:t.p. (Vedran Mimica)
 * Suvremena hrvatska arhitektura, 2007:t.p. (Vedran Mimica) p. 654 (b. Zagreb, 1954)  Eastmain (talk • contribs) 04:29, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Quick Google search brings up some mainstream media coverage in Croatia, such as a 2017 interview in Globus (weekly) and a 2013 interview in Slobodna Dalmacija "Plus" (whatever that section or edition is), so there might well be WP:POTENTIAL. --Joy (talk) 14:56, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. Maybe it will be helpful to summarize my recent nominations/edits. The NN creator of these articles was recently nominated by another editor. Not by me. After the article she wrote on herself, she created articles on her study friends and spun off their projects into seperate articles on their architectural firms. I only nominated these unjustified spinoffs. For this friend, who is just a NN person that has a job, she created a twoliner. In other words, nothing surprising about there not being an article on Hrwiki. For yet another friend she created a longer article that I only cleaned up. As always, I just reacted to what I saw in the articles and elsewhere to the best of my judgement. No spite or mass nominations. I will also not argue for any of the suggested resolutions. Just doing my WP chores. gidonb (talk) 16:09, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Relisting comment: Relisting as some references have been added since nomination and no one has responded to the nominator's suggestion of redirection. But being a short article has never been a valid reason for deletion by itself alone and no other deletion rationale has been offered. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read!

 * Keep He's appeared numerous times in mainstream Croatian newspapers to the point of passing GNG. Needs improvement, not deletion. SportingFlyer  T · C  21:53, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

 * I find your relisting comment strange, as no one has supported redirection apart from the nominator, and it clearly passes WP:GNG. If you look at the AfD history, the nominator posted and then removed something which said "deletion was never the issue." I respect the work you've been doing relisting and closing these discussions, but why not just close this? SportingFlyer  T · C  16:23, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Maybe because I look at every single open AFD every day and I wasn't thinking clearly when I wrote my comment. It's late where I'm at right now but I'll review this one again in the morning. #EditingWhileSleepy Liz Read! Talk! 09:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
