Wakhi Tajik Cultural Association

I found some coverage in the books via G'books but trivial therefore this one fails WP:ORGDEPTH. Saqib (talk) 10:45, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment. Wakhi Tajik Cultural Association is mentioned in many books and news articles. I did not find anything which is promotional, people who researched Wakhi people, almost always mentioned this and what this organization is doing to preserve local culture. Among other reference, I found . This book has more details. This article should be divided into background, as in most cases, reason for creating this was to promote Wakhi culture as it is overshadow by modern culture. Coverage in all the books is related to their culture, langugae and threats to their way of life and how this association is helping. So in context of Wakhi people and area where they live, this association is significantly mentioned, in reliable sources and multiple times. What is your opinion on this. --Spasage (talk) 14:53, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * MY opinion, it fails per WP:ORGDEPTH. --Saqib (talk) 14:52, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Redirect it may be redirected to Wakhi people. samee  converse  20:31, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * The content over there is unsourced and risk getting deleted. Redirection does not make sense unless someone fix it. On a related note, I don't understand why would someone mention the organisation (which is not notable at least by WP standards) in quite detail in an article about Wakhi people. Generally, we are not supposed to do that. A wikilink makes sense but whole passage does not. --Saqib (talk) 07:13, 11 April 2018 (UTC)


 * I'll say to simply merge it with Wakhi people.   M A A Z     T A L K   13:39, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
 * And I would say why? --Saqib (talk) 19:58, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Why not? WP:AFDFORMAT reads: Alternatives to deletion should be considered. If you think the article should be a disambiguation page, a redirect or merger to another article, then recommend "Disambiguation", "Redirect" or "Merge". Do not recommend deletion in such cases. Explained in WP:ATD.   M A A Z     T A L K   20:09, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * See my above comment dated 11 April. --Saqib (talk) 04:26, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I believe WP:ATD is a stronger argument here.   M A A Z     T A L K   17:13, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
