Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Ukraine

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Ukraine. 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:

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.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Ukraine|~~~~}} 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 Ukraine. 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 Europe.

Badly written article about unnotable ukrainian scientist. I was unable to find anything notable within this article's sources. SolxrgashiUnited (talk) 18:07, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of People-related deletion discussions. SolxrgashiUnited (talk) 18:07, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators, Politics, and Ukraine. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 18:21, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Automatically notable per WP:NPOL as a member of the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliament. Probably passes other guidelines as well, as he looks quite prominent per the Ukrainian and Russian articles, which appear to include several encyclopedias giving him entries. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:49, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep. The nominator has unfortunately bitten off more than they can chew. No-one should start 20 AFDs in 30 hours, editors with a couple hundred edits under their belt even less so. In this case, most of the AFDs seem like ill-conceived drive-by nominations, and have largely been met with a massive keep response. In these particular AFDs, the nominator routinely disregards common deletion outcomes and guidelines, making imprecise nomination statements and disregarding that many of the criticisms can be solved through cleanup. In this biography, not only the politician part would lead to a keep outcome, but also the national academy part. Geschichte (talk) 20:58, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, trout, and move swiftly on. Mccapra (talk) 21:42, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Passes WP:NPOL. Procyon117 (talk) 07:33, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. Anyone who’s been here for four months knows that WP:NPOL is a strongly held consensus. Bearian (talk) 13:55, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. member of Ukrainian Parliament, notable political scientist. As the nominator listed himself as rusian, he should have no issues reading rusian version of the article and there are many rusian language sources available. Ceriy (talk) 15:03, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:NPOL SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 15:41, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:NPOL Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 17:41, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Raids inside the Soviet Union during the Soviet–Afghan War

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

An unwarranted WP:SPLIT of the Soviet–Afghan War, clearly a Pov ridden article and glorification of measly notable Pakistani raids in Soviet Afghan. Garudam ^Talk! 00:49, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Military, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Russia, Ukraine, and United States of America. Garudam ^Talk! 00:49, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the list of History-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 01:04, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Its not a Split and these raids aren't "measley notable" in that it involved the forces of four different states infiltrating into the territory of a global superpower. Waleed (talk) 02:58, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I think that the article is notable on its own. WP:SPLIT is justified for significant battles of the Soviet-Afghan war. Wikibear47 (talk) 17:38, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This could be merged at best. Otherwise, I don't see a reason why this article should exist in the mainspace when the parent article itself does not cover this topic or lacks sources, even if it does. Garudam ^Talk! 19:11, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: pure violation of WP:SYNTH. The topic is not notable and the article itself appears to be pushing a POV. - Ratnahastin (talk) 02:18, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article has standalone notability of its own established through significant coverage and a necessary split from Soviet-Afghan war article. Muneebll (talk) 09:23, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The topic is not even notable for its parent article and lacks citations, clearly it does not pass GNG & SIGCOV. Garudam ^Talk! 14:55, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
