This is basically original research as it represents the editor's choice of "the oldest references associated with Afghans". The editor in question has a history of misrepresenting sources, using sources for original research, and using unreliable sources. Dougweller (talk) 18:53, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Not sure about the title but there is useful Ancient Greek content in this article and I know of ancient Greek history of Afghanistan without doing any original research. Perhaps a more appropriate title is required. Perhaps something like Ancient Greek history of Afghanistan or Ancient Greeks in Afghanistan for part of the content, or something along those lines.

- Delete Definitely feels like original research, and is largely quotes. This is a time period which seems to be underdeveloped on the History of Afghanistan page MadCow257 (talk) 02:34, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge Looks like some good content, but the title itself is a POV assertion, not a wp subject. North8000 (talk) 12:01, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge It can contribute to existing article like history of Afghanistan or Afghanistan Sehmeet singh Talk 16:21, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I don't consider this good content - it's just a confusing assortment of quotes. This can be more concisely addressed in an article concerning the history of Afghanistan, but not in this form. Sandstein 04:57, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
