Dashgyn Gulmammadov[edit]

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

The article does not seem fit for Wikipedia for the following reasons:

The person whom the article is dedicated to overall does not appear to be very notable.
With the exception of the lead, the article is not sourced at all. However, it makes pretty bold statements with regard to this person's political activity, which may very well be exaggerated, like claiming him to be a 'democracy activist', which a sample check revealed not to be supported by any reliable sources.
The fact that the article has mainly been edited by one user who has not contributed to any other articles on Wikipedia since his/her registration, and also the fact that articles about this person were created en masse in other languages around the same time by the same user, albeit consisting of one or two sentences each, suggest that this may be a case of WP:SELFPROMOTE.

Keep Many Islamic Turks were expelled from Georgia and resettled in Azerbaijani by the Soviets, including ethnic cleansing. Dashgyn is an Georgian/Azerbaijani Turk who has held many political positions within that community but it's difficult to gauge the importance of these groups without local knowledge. However he was founder and President of the Georgian Azerbaijanis National Assembly from 2002 to 2011, as confirmed here, here, here, and so on; the organization appears to be a significant representative of the Georgian/Azerbaijani Turks. Dashgyn would pass WP:POLITICIAN #1 and/or #2. It's a good catch on the nom's part, but not concerned about WP:COI, if there is specific content that is inappropriate for Wikipedia it should be removed, but the existential question if we should have an article on this person I believe would be keep. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 18:50, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Has no real importance. Just a self-commercialized article. GEORGIANJORJADZE 13:19, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
