The article Socialist Aymara Group has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Uncited for nearly two decades. I could verify its existence but a small local party that won one election in its history doesn't meet notability standards. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 23:39, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
Soman, will you be returning to your review here? There was a response to it last month, and it's important to get this moving again. If not, I can call for a new reviewer. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:41, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
The article Comités Palestine has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
These Palestine solidarity groups are mentioned a few times in the cited publications but not in depth, just in passing. No substantive coverage about these groups to be found. Fails wp:gng
