BRPever has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: An article about Turkish author and journalist, but I couldn't find many secondary reliable sources upon search. The ones I came across were either primary (social media profiles and such) and few other sources which were not significant enough to make the individual notable. I looked into the articles on other wikis and there too the notability is questionable, so I think listing this article here for discussion would give the community the appropriate time to see if the person has sufficient coverage in sources in non-English languages or not. Thank you. BRP ever 09:59, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Please discuss this request below, but keep in mind that you shouldn't vote on everything and that there may be options other than "keep" or "delete", such as merging.

  • File:Symbol comment vote.svg Comment: I've noticed that there are sources in Turkish that are not just mentions of Gözay. I am leaning keep, but I'm not quite sure if these sources I've found are reliable. —Belwine (talk) 10:05, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
    Yes, this mention in Cumhuriyet is fairly reliable source imo. However, it does look more like a news, so I am not certain if we can be certain of notabilty based on that.-BRP ever 10:20, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
  • File:Symbol comment vote.svg Comment: A lot of reliable sources have been published after her death: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]. I'm unsure to Keep, as they are all published right after her death and some of the sources are parroting each other. All sources are about her background information and/or news of death. ~Styyx Talk? ^-^ 13:00, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
  • File:Symbol keep vote.svg Keep with so many apparently reliable sources covering her death, it seems likely she is notable. --IWI (talk) 10:42, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
