Please refer to , "Before nominating an article for deletion," particularly point B2, "If there are verifiability, notability or other sourcing concerns, take reasonable steps to search for reliable sources.

Such searches should in most cases take only a minute or two to perform."

The nominator didn't state anything about searching for reliable sources
