This Syrian opposition group does not appear to have been the subject of significant coverage in third party sources as required by WP:ORG. I was not able to find reliable, secondary sources any better than what is already in the article. VQuakr (talk) 01:25, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Additional Arabic sources include: [1][2][3][4][5] -- Green Cardamom (talk) 04:46, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I saw a couple of those, and two have English language translations available I think. In your opinion, are any of them reliable and independent of the topic while covering the topic in sufficient depth to connote notability? VQuakr (talk) 04:55, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to List of armed groups in the Syrian civil war - there's enough to WP:V this as one of those, and it's a plausible search term. Redirects are cheap. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 01:02, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - It's relevant, BBC source says it numbers 13,000. 5 sources used so far, article needs more time to develop. DylanLacey (talk) 03:53, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • WP:ITSNOTABLE, WP:BIGNUMBER. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 06:21, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect as proposed by The Bushranger. I've looked through the Arabic-language sources, and they're fairly thin as well. No question this group merits an entry in list of armed groups in the Syrian civil war, but I don't think there's quite enough for a full article yet. —Neil 06:19, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
