The result was delete. (soft); WP:A2 and WP:TRANSLATE do realistically apply for this exact reason (i.e., the article can exist on another language, but that's not enough reason to create a google-translated version or verbatim copy of it as a pseudo-stub here, as the result is needlessly incomprehensible). Anyone is free to speedily WP:UNDELETE or re-create the article otherwise. slakrtalk / 01:39, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is a machine translation (google translate) of the Indonesian Wikipedia article https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baayun_Mulud. According to WP:TRANSLATE, an unedited machine translation, left as a Wikipedia article, is worse than nothing. Vanjagenije (talk) 17:36, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - I don't think the nominator's rationale is a valid one. Being a machine translation is not a good rationale for nomination; instead, such articles should be improved and copyedited. With that said, I searched about the topic, and most of what I could find are Blogspot pages. However, I did find a few websites that appeared to be reliable, though since I have no knowledge of Indonesian, I can't say if they are significant or not. Can an Indonesian-speaking editor help me out? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:48, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
