Delete. Per all of the above. Autobiography that appears to have been created and solely edited by a sockpuppet after their initial article was also deleted. WP:BOMBARD: with three unrelated sources from the Guardian, openDemocracy, and politics.co.uk cited to demonstrate chess credentials despite no mention of chess in those sources. Nomination for the "Noon Award" in lede, although the award bears no notability and is not mentioned in linked article for Baron Noon. Trumped up claims of political activism re Europe Sees Syria, despite untrue figure of "two million gathered" not reflected in cited sources; worth nominating that article for deletion again also. Wrenhaven (talk) 13:40, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The article has been sourced well. Subject meets WP:GNG. Passes WP:NTEMP. Subject had media coverage prior to the event.

Furthermore, nominated user Wrenhaven, have a very odd track record. As you can see from here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Wrenhaven

The user never contributed a lot the Wikipedia (exactly from September 2016) but suddently, pops-up randomly in 28 May 2019 and —interested in subject and knows too much about this issue, raises questions he is a sockpuppet of the banned user.

Question : Azerifactory, he is a sockpuppet of the banned user - of which banned user? Provide evidence. "Serious accusations require serious evidence". Cabayi (talk) 12:50, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete mostly just a WP:REFBOMB of passing references, personal works, and non-reliable sources. The subject failed notability standards the first time this article was created and he doesn't pass them now. This may also be a possible WP:SALT situation as well.

Keep--Babək Akifoğlu (talk) 21:29, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

— Note: An editor has expressed a concern that editors have been canvassed to this discussion.

Question Babək Akifoğlu Welcome back to enwiki after your 9 month gap? Were you asked to add to this discussion? I'd expect an admin to know that this is not a vote (WP:NOTVOTE) and to provide a policy based reason for keeping the article. Cabayi (talk) 12:40, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wild guess: Probably not. Babək Akifoğlu is a frequent contributor to az:WP, and while there would have been pinged automatically when their name was mentioned here. -- Hoary (talk) 14:00, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hoary, I see no mention of Babək Akifoğlu prior to their !vote. Cabayi (talk) 14:06, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Seems Passes WP:NTEMP.--SalmanZ (talk) 22:21, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

SalmanZ, NTEMP applies after the threshold of WP:SIGCOV has been met. Where is the evidence that that threshold has been met? Cabayi (talk) 12:55, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Düşünürəm ki, səxsin ensiklopedik olmasını sübut edən yetərincə istinad var. Hörmətlə.--Nicat49 (talk) 02:39, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Google Translation : I think there is enough evidence to prove that the person is encyclopedic. Respectfully.

Question Nicat49, Which of enwiki's notability criteria does he pass? It would help if you replied in English so that we might have some confidence that you understand the policies involved. Cabayi (talk) 12:32, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Pertinent to point out that three of the four keeps above are from sysops of the Azerbaijani Wiki (Babək Akifoğlu, Nicat49, Azerifactory). One of those three, Azerifactory, is the subject of the article in question. Wrenhaven (talk) 03:35, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The biggest odd thing about this is Wrenhaven's obsession with this topic. Especially, this user not contributed anything major in last three years but appears to be very knowledgable, which raises huge question that how somebody so low contributing to Wiki, knows too much about banned user, without been here, which is classic case of WP:DUCK for me and I would suggest admins to do Checkuser on him.--Azerifactory (talk) 09:34, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The poor admins of en:WP just have a mop and a bucket. They don't have checkuser abilities. You'll have to ask a "checkuser". Please see Wikipedia:CheckUser. -- Hoary (talk) 11:18, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hoary, Azerifactory, A checkuser was conducted yesterday and Wrenhaven was cleared. Azerifactory was already aware as he is a named party in the SPI. Cabayi (talk) 12:23, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question. I read above that "The article has been sourced well." This claim (by Azerifactory) surprises me. The article says (after trivial reformatting) that "On 12 September 2015, along with few activists, he created Europe Sees Syria campaign, which gathered over two million people around cities like Glasgow, London, Berlin, Aberdeen, Athens and Barcelona to raise awareness about the European refugee crisis.^[1]^[2]" Now, I am getting very old and my eyesight may be failing, but I don't notice anything about two million people in either of those "references". Are my ageing eyes overlooking something, or is this poetic licence, or what? -- Hoary (talk) 11:18, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
