The result was no consensus. Looks like the WP:SIGCOV is just on the fence for this one. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:15, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment They definitely don't pass WP:NPOL, but they may pass WP:GNG. I found lots of news hits, although mostly not focused on Sinani, e.g. this Balkan Insight article (1). A little more in this Russian article in Danas (2). I'm concerned that most of their coverage is in non-English sources: Mccapra, what non-English sources did you look at during WP:BEFORE? Anything useful? Suriname0 (talk) 22:12, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I found this which is a hyper-local news outlet item citing an MP’s Facebook profile saying that he and Sinani hosted a delegation from Kosovo. Other news items from the same source are this announcing that she and her rival candidate both got COVID and this and this which I think are reasonably in-depth coverage of her political perspectives and plans, though again they are hyperlocal.
- This piece in Danas is significant because it’s in a national daily, but it’s an interview.
- This records the fact that she was elected. I’m not sure what the status of the site is but it appears to me to be a piece of local press.
- This does look like a piece of extended coverage of her views.
- This I can’t get to translate for some reason but it looks like an announcement of her election win, not in-depth coverage. That’s all I found. Mccapra (talk) 02:25, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and Redirect to Preševo#Politics. So to summarize, we have two substantive coverages in a national daily (but one's an interview) and English-language coverage of her views on one issue, plus a smattering of WP:ROTM coverage around her election. To me, that's right on the edge of WP:GNG, so I could be easily convinced to switch to Keep if an additional source focused on Sinani was identified. Otherwise, it looks to me like there's no problem with putting info about Sinani into the Presevo article, beefing up the elections section with a paragraph on Sinani's election and views (based on the sources identified above).

- Comment thanks I’d support that and should really have thought of it myself before nominating. Mccapra (talk) 18:00, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment According to some local newspapers, she is an elected Mayor of Preševo therefore, deletion is not the right decision. Yet, the article needs to be improved with existing reliable sources. Mehmood.Husain (talk) 23:26, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
