World Islam Day

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Of this article's two sources, one is the subject matter's own website and the other returns a 403 error. The article overall is very biased towards Islam and towards World Islam Day. Gacl906 (talk) 17:22, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. Almost looks like a WP:A11, but at least fails WP:GNG (zilch on GNews and GBooks, which is remarkable for something that is supposed to be a "World xxx Day"). Note that the subject's own website is a Blogspot in disguise. --HyperGaruda (talk) 18:46, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Searched; found nothing. Apparent PROMO for a "World Day" that exists only in somebody's mind.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:14, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Looked about and I get an impression of wanting to make it happen... here. No WP:N here. - Pmedema (talk) 23:39, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete This seems like an attempt to advertise the website (which is, indeed, the only working source). I checked the Arabic version of the article; it was apparently created by a rather unresponsive user with a habit of creating pointless articles consisting of madeup topics over there, so this looks like another WP:ADVERT issue.

 * Delete as user MezzoMezzo cited, it seems like an attempt to advertise the website, and in the Arabic version the language of the article lacks neutrality and objectivity.--Jobas (talk) 13:24, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - I agree, it looks like something between an ad and a hoax. Smmurphy(Talk) 22:14, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
