I came across these articles when going through the New Pages Feed. They are all created by the same user, Samizambak, and are all stubs, mostly under 100 words. All are about "anonymous Turkish folk tunes", the vast majority are either completely unreferenced or rely on a single source. They appear to fail music notability guidelines and the general notability guideline and the lack of sources makes detracts from their verifiability. I used the reviewer talk page as a sounding board and MrX recommended deletion. Please also note the consensus gained on similar recent mass creations such as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Open access in Vietnam. The article List of anonymous Turkish folk songs already exists but appears to have not been edited by the user who created these stubs. Therefore, I recommend the deletion of these articles, with no prejudice to recreation of some if sources can be found and the content can be expanded, and to extend an invitation to Samizambak to expand List of anonymous Turkish folk songs.

TL;DR: delete all per WP:V, WP:NMUSIC, WP:GNG with no prejudice to recreation and invite Samizambak to expand the already-existing list.

Note to admin: if the result is delete, please note that there are numerous redirects to these pages which will need deletion too.

Delete all - with the recommendation to have Samizambak expand List of anonymous Turkish folk songs. I had found several of these stubs during new page patrol, and redirected them to the list article, after adding them. If this subject interested me at all, I'd take up the task, but unfortunately it doesn't. Your rationale seems spot on. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:36, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all. However, I see no need to rush to delete within 7 days, but give time to engage with @Samizambak: and for them to transfer content into List of anonymous Turkish folk songs. Some people do have holidays and even a life outside of Wikipedia, I'm told, and this is a fair bit of work to lose and to have to redo from scratch.

@Nick Moyes: possibly, but process is important in these instances. In any event, if Samizambak is "away" right now, I'm sure an administrator will be willing to provide them with copies of their deleted articles so they can improve them. DrStrauss talk 12:10, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all - The articles fail WP:GNG, WP:NSONG, WP:RS and (in some cases) WP:OR. Perhaps some of them could be combined into a list article if sources are available to show WP:LISTN notability.- Mr X 15:14, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
