Milos Miljkovic[edit]

Delete pure vanity, user added self. 17 year old football player and author. already userfied. Article is in Serbo-Croatian, as best as myself and WP:PNT people could tell. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 15:09, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Addendum: my fluency in Russian makes me somewhat able to decipher Serbo-Croatian. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 16:22, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • In order to properly determine for myself which way to fall on an afd, I need to be able to read the article, and be able to access resources in a language I am familiar in, and not rely second hand on another who speaks the language. I check myself on every afd and never just "per nom" without first doing my own due diligence. I am essentially precluded from doing so here as, I imagine, are most other editors. This article can be deleted based on that it is not English, and I have no basis for making a decision otherwise. I also imagine that collectively, editors on on the Serbian 'pedia are much better positioned to come to a measured debate than we are based on the same language/available resource problem. I am not saying we cannot do it here, just that there is no call for "nah"; in the absence of finding patent keep criteria, I cannot rely on my English resources for a reliable delete vote based on the merits of the subject article's notability. --Fuhghettaboutit 19:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Of course. I have asked HolyRomanEmperor, the only wiki-serb I know, to come and comment on this AfD. If you know others, please invite them as well. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 19:41, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Delete per A2. The merits of the article are irrelevant; this is not written in English, and therefore liable for speedy deletion. RGTraynor 21:57, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That's not true. WP:PNT exists to determine the merits of non-english articles. This is almost certainly not notable, but I've salvaged a few non-english things from there myself (see my userpage!) Grandmasterka 02:13, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete - already userfied. Subject may be notable, but article needs to be scraped clean and restarted. B.Wind 03:09, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy' the user added himself to the Manchester United article with text something like "Maybe new player is Milos Mikjkovic." He's also added himself to the article of a major a large soccer club: Radnički Niš. I did a google of the team: he does not appear on the roster of the team [1] ... those references should be removed as well. (My two semesters of Czech in Uni may not go provide for adequate translation of Serbo-Croatian, but from cognates... "Od sledece sezone je u potrazi za novim klubom,a njegovi omiljeni su" really seams that he wants to play on one of those teams "next season." ) --Kunzite 23:55, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete as per the nomination. --HolyRomanEmperor 18:32, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
