- Delete: As written, fails WP:V and WP:NFICT. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:39, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: I don't have an opinion on this nomination, but "As written, fails WP:V and WP:NFICTION" is not a legitimate criteria for deletion. Per WP:ARTN, WP:NEXIST, WP:ATD, and WP:PRESERVE, notability isn't determined by what's already written in the article. Likewise, not every major problem with an article is a AfD problem.

- @Darkknight2149: My bad, I forgot to append the "and my BEFORE failed to find anything". So per WP:THEREMUSTBESOURCES, unless such sources are presented, this topic fails cited guidelines. If a topic is notable but does not indicate this, {{notability}} and draftification are viable alternatives, but when such sources are not found at all, well... --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:58, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

- Delete as failing the WP:GNG, even after following WP:BEFORE. There are reliable independent sources to write an encyclopedic article. Jontesta (talk) 20:10, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
