Talk:Baba Fingo

Improvements

@Nalanidil: Hey! Let's talk here about how to improve this article so it does not get deleted. I think perhaps you are starting to annoy Potsdamlamb by doing that over at the deletion discussion page.

To answer your question, Baba Yaga didn't get deleted because Baba Yaga is famous. People who speak English as a first language have seen her in books, video games and stories. Yes, our article Baba Yaga has problems, but it's easy to see that they can be fixed.

The big issue with this article, Baba Fingo, is that it is not clear that he is notable. We need to add more sources to prove that he is.

For etiquette, talk about how to improve the article here on its own talk page, and then go back to the request for deletion discussion and tell everyone what you did after it is done. Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:10, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Now as to how to improve this article. Do you have access to any books that talk about Baba Fingo? Like made-out-of-paper books from a library or university? If History of the Roma in Turkey has a chapter or passage about him, we should add that book as a source! Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:12, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Sorry? I'm annoyed ??? whom? Do not understand what you mean, @Darkfrog. The only thing i see is that i'm unwanted. Everything I write with or without a source is not ok. It's getting too exhausting for me. Anyway, I don't care anymore if you want to delete the article, no problem.

I brought 2 sources, but they don't seem to be enough.

By have fun,

Oh well. This is a volunteer project, Nalanidil, and I'm sorry to hear you're not having fun but you have every right to leave if you want to. Darkfrog24 (talk) 23:29, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

A Google Books search for Baba Fingo produced many results, but most were not in any language I can read. I have added the one that was in English. Darkfrog24 (talk) 00:11, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

I think the page name should renamed in Kakava festival, because the name of the festival is kakava and in english more sources with the name kakava. the believe in the mystical figure baba fingo is a part within the festival.

I think there should be two articles, one Baba Fingo and one Kakava Festival. But if you really want just one, I won't put back your changes. Darkfrog24 (talk) 01:18, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
