I am just not seeing any basis for notability for a one-time loan of just over (in Dr. Evil-speak) one million dollars. I can imagine this being merged somewhere as a line, but an article seems unsupportable. BD2412 T 20:39, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- Delete or Merge to Polish United Workers' Party, where the topic is already discussed. Per nom, there is not enough here to justify its on article. Yilloslime ( talk) 22:16, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- Soft delete or Merge to Polish United Workers' Party#Dissolution of the PZPR in the event that someone wants to do a full treatment of this topic. This article has been here since 2007 and it looks like it's been a stub the whole time. Some Wikieditors have taken an interest in de-orphaning etc. but no one has done the legwork of getting enough sources to establish notability. Darkfrog24 ( talk) 01:31, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Polish Wikipedia has a longer article. No BEFORE was done by the nom; mine show this topic is discussed in some Polish sources, try the following Google Books query: "Moskiewska pożyczka" 1990. There are even English-language hits - see query "Moscow loan" 1990.
This book in English for example mentions it as a "well known example" of something. It seems to be a
notable topic. --

- How much BEFORE is necessary to know that a million dollar loan is not by itself notable? The Polish Wikipedia article is longer because it contains an entirely unsourced section. BD2412 T 22:24, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting just in case anyone wanted to offer any more specific references to establish notability. If not, this looks like a probable Merge.

- Delete per nom. The coverage in Polish United Workers' Party is sufficient; and I'm not convinced this is a suitable phrase to redirect. I can't speak for Polish coverage, but this article is the best English coverage ... and the loan itself is tangential. Walsh90210 ( talk) 01:19, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
