Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hovnatanyan family
Nominator didn't even bother to perform any of the steps that are supposed to be done  nominating for deletion. No effort was made to actually try to ''find'' sources on the family/its members before nominating for deletion, and no effort was made to even slap a {{tl|notability}} tag on it for a few days to let ''others'' do the dirty work for him—less than ten minutes passed between the time when E4024 made his http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hovnatanyan_family&diff=534565943&oldid=534564900 first edit to the page and when he http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hovnatanyan_family&diff=534566662&oldid=534566083 nominated it for deletion because the article was "not sourced enough". When searches are actually done, as others above me have shown, a not insubstantial number of English sources (to speak nothing of Armenian or perhaps Russian) ''do'' cover this family and/or its members in moderate detail—not enough for a GA, but certainly enough for an article of this short length. This is a best a sloppy and lazy nomination, and at worst an act of deliberate disruption on the part of E4024, especially when taking into account the troubling points raised by Proundbolsahye
