Quite the same case as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ghaznavid conquest of Multan—totally WP:LLM'd [1]. However, I must say that some coverage exists and it's possibly not a hoax, but this topic can only be properly handled through WP:TNT. – Garuda ^Talk! 22:41, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete The good news is that, at least, Beyond the Pass Economy, Ethnicity, and Empire in Qing Central Asia, 1759-1864 is a real book and James Millward is a real person. Since that's the principal English language source cited it means there might conceivably be a basis for an article like this one to exist. However, as pervasive LLM usage would mean manually checking every single reference to see whether it is supported by the book, as other citations look difficult to verify since they're written in Russian (if they exist) and as it's pretty much just a stub anyway, I find the WP:TNT argument compelling. Blow it up and start over. Simonm223 (talk) 14:07, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:TNT. It's not realistic for us to try to check whether the information in the article is supported by the offline sources cited by the LLM. The sole online source doesn't include the word "Fergana" and is focused on a later period of Chinese history. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 15:09, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
