Hovnatanyan family

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

Not sourced enough to understand notability. As the artists are presented as a family we may not decide which member(s) give notability to the group. Maybe only the notable one(s) should have a WP article, not altogether. E4024 (talk) 23:01, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Definitely notable as they have been respected painters in the Russian Czarist Empire. Just typing "Hovnatanian" on google books yields 596 results. Hakob Hovnatanian alone yields 100+. Theres no deletion proposal needed for such articles like this when all there needs to be done is sources added (there are tags for that). This deletion proposal is of bad faith since E4024 has been trying to ban many Armenian and Greeks articles he has come across. See: Zahrad, Miss Globe Organisation (he is using this deletion proposal to ultimately ban Araksi Cetinyan which he voted to delete as well, List of Cyprus islets, and last but not least Armenians of Dersim (which has been succesfully deleted because I just transferred the data of the article since I didn't feel I should deal with simultaneous bans on Armenian articles). He has at times used speedy deletions as well. He has consistenly voted delete in Armenian articles like Sarkis Antikajian, Araksi Cetinyan (as mentioned above), and so forth. This also includes him consistently trying to ban Armenian and Greek users See: SPI on me, Markus2685, and more. I don't like pinpointing what he does but because quite frankly I don't care. But all I ask from E4024 is for him to work together to expand wikipedia and be more constructive rather than destructive. Proudbolsahye (talk) 00:11, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Proudbolsahye. It should also be noted that the subject of the article is notable enough that there are equivalent articles on the Armenian, Georgian, Russian and French Wikipedias. It is more useful and constructive to initially call for sources and citations (using Refimprove templates) instead of quickly opting for a deletion proposal.

Speedy keep & As long as I understand, "Hovnatanian family" ("Hakob Hovantanian") is common in English. Takabeg (talk) 05:23, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are even craters named after them! Proudbolsahye (talk) 05:55, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
