Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Lebanon

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Lebanon. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Lebanon|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Lebanon. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Middle East.

Nothing in news results. The sources are not third party independent references. Greek Legend (talk) 12:24, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

So what is an acceptable source? Since Arabic Newspapers are not "appropriate" to prove the existence of this ideology?100.1.113.235 (talk) 13:51, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

You can give Arabic newspaper source if you want, but there must be at least one mention in some English newspaper. I believe the countries where this movement exist, there must be some English newspaper. I couldn't find anything in Google news search. Thanks Greek Legend (talk) 15:09, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

• Delete – The substance of the article is unsourced. The sources given are only cited to support general statements about the organisations that supposedly uphold this ideology. I can't find anything relevant on independent sources via Google—note that "Antiochenism" is also used as a rare synonym for Nestorianism, which seems to be how it's used in all the relevant results for that term. However, @Greek Legend: Per WP:RSUE, while English sources are preferred, there is no requirement that sources be in English, or that there be "at least one" source in English. If someone can find sources in Arabic (or Greek) I am open to changing my mind. —Nizolan ^(talk) 15:23, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

• Not that you need mention in English sources, but I agree that this is not notable enough to have its own article. Delete. Can agree for merge/redirect if proposed. Capitals00 (talk) 16:04, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

• Delete per argument made by Nizolan. Also support the WP:RSUE guideline explanation.--MarshalN20 ^Talk 17:04, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
• Delete per Nizolan Hawaan12 (talk) 16:22, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
• Delete Tried ekathimerini.com and general news and book searches, but I can't source it. As regards the Orthodox Christians of Antakya, may God help them, certainly no one else is.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:33, 1 April 2016 (UTC)
