... that Argentine president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner claimed in a speech at the UN that ISIS may be trying to kill her?

Moved to mainspace by Mhhossein (talk). Nominated by Cambalachero (talk) at 15:35, 24 October 2014 (UTC).

Kirchner spoke in front of the UN? A bag of rice fell down in China? A bike has been stolen in Amsterdam? Two pigs had sex on a Danish farm? Strong doubts about the notability and the whole article is sort of funny but nothing DYK should note. If Kirchner needs publicity try shoe-banging next time. I tagged the article.

@Serten: Sorry, but I really can't understand why you are trying to dismiss the notability of the article. Is it really comparable with falling down of a bag of rice or etc? According to Notability, If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list. As you see, enough sources do cover this issue. Her lecture was not a simple lecture or report, as it seems. Mhhossein (talk) 04:59, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

The main source, Press TV, is a Iranian state propaganda outlet, that is sort of Pallywood content but nothing WP should quote on its mainpage. Serten (talk) 02:30, 31 October 2014 (UTC) Same apllies for Sleuth journal.

@Serten: Of course the topic is not based on Press TV and just two sentences of this article is from this international news agency. So, saying that main source for this article is Press TV looks like propaganda! To put you in the picture I should tell you that most of this article is based on the UN News Center. For many other sources used, you might go the References! there you'll see that besides UN News Center, sources such as Israel Nation News, The Guardian, Telam and Clarín make most of this article.

I opened an Afd case. As said, no suitable content for the mainpage. Serten (talk) 03:35, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
