Some random fountain. A search barely returns anything. Aintabli (talk) 02:20, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - the article needs work and there seem to be some variant spellings but this and this and this convince me it's an notable landmark of the souk, with a history dating to the Ottoman period, etc jengod (talk) 06:14, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't believe passing mentions in several publications and websites are enough to justify a separate article on a small fountain. According to the sources, this fountain is known because of a shop or street vendor formerly located next to the fountain operated by a family of the same name, which verges on WP:NGEO#No inherited notability. The fountain might have its history dating back to the Ottoman period, but as far as I can see, its current form is anything but Ottoman, and I'm interested if any sources give an "in-depth account" of its Ottoman history. Souk Ayas deserves an article more, in which this fountain could be mentioned. Aintabli (talk) 16:32, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Article is sourced to an interview with a person that remembered it from long ago, hardly a RS. I can't find anything. I tried search for French sources "fontaine d'Antabli", still nothing came up. Delete for any sort of sourcing, not meeting GNG Oaktree b (talk) 14:15, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Few sources or any sign of notability. Like Oaktree pointed out, what sources do exist may hardly be classified under WP:RS. GuardianH (talk) 19:46, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
