Leaning redirect to List of political parties in Turkey - I have not found much in-depth coverage; e.g. Daily Sabah (2019); Jerualem Post (2022), Women's UN Report Network (2014), Cumhuriyet (2023); Artı Gerçek (2023). Beccaynr (talk) 15:30, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as inherently encyclopedic content. Topics like this is what we are here for, people. I favor the lowest of all low bars for articles on political parties, their leaders, and their youth sections. Carrite (talk) 10:09, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Redirect and merge into List of political parties in Turkey, as the party lacks significant coverage in sources to be worthy of an article, as discussed in a recent trwiki AfD. Having encyclopedic content does not exempt articles from passing the GNG. ~Styyx^Talk? 23:13, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per Styyx and Beccaynr. Aintabli (talk) 22:35, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - apparently insignificant party with no elected representatives. Searching for Kadın Partisi, I mostly found articles about historical women's parties [1], articles on women's participation in AK Party [2], and an opinion piece that opens with the lament Neden kocaman bir kadın partisi yok--Why is there no big women's party. I was able to find this source which is essentially just reprinting a statement from the organization, and here TRT mentions them briefly in a list of parties investigated by the authorities. Based on the article itself, which cites only primary sources, the party's membership is...zero? Per a government database? Elections are inherently notable; parties are organizations that need to attain coverage to become notable, and lowering standards in this area means playing fast and loose with potential political misinformation that we have no way of verifying. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 05:35, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
