Hey man im josh ( talk ) 14:49, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Disagree and believe he is already notable and with the publication by Penguin of That Peckham Boy next week he will receive extensive coverage and be even more notable. He co-founded and leads a respected and financially successful think tank. He is a published author He is notable, as far as the major UK news outlets are concerned for his life story and the way he overcame prejudice and a potential lengthy jail sentence. His charitable work is substantial, including BBC Children in Need, which is very much a 'great and good' organisation. He met the Queen - OK I'm not that convinced by that one but many people are. Jimmy Wales big fan of Royal Family. He is already a significant black voice in society with regular interviews on the mainstream media and is likely to become an even more significant figure as his work continues. His 'Gsearch' is just like most Think Tanks - books are so 20th century I am afraid. most of their work is for clients and does not make it into public print except in brief headlines from time to time. YellowFratello ( talk ) 15:05, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If there are no published sources about him, the article can't be kept. We need proof of notability. Oaktree b ( talk ) 15:22, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The Guardian article is not a published source? YellowFratello ( talk ) 18:31, 8 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for the prompt - I have done more research and added references from The BBC, The Independent Newspaper and The UK Daily Mirror. I hope these will answer any questions of Notability. YellowFratello ( talk ) 18:48, 8 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I've added more sources. It seems he's notable on more than one count - for the charitable work, which now has independent sources to verify, and also potentially for being the first person to sit and pass A Levels in prison (less coverage but more is possibly findable on this). I think the page should passes GNG and should be kept.

Ghulam Rasool Saeedi: However, the creator Youknowwhoistheman moved it back to the main NS without any discussion. So, I think it's reasonable to nom. it for deletion. From what I can tell, the subject doesn't meet WP:GNG or even AUTHOR. Plus, this piece is just a Letter to the editor , so one should simply ignore it when establishing GNG. — Saqib ( talk I contribs ) 15:03, 29 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Pakistan-related deletion discussions . — Saqib ( talk I contribs ) 15:03, 29 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : Thanks for noticing, I think that before putting any new article in draft, it should be given time. So that it can be properly prepared. You put it in draft in a very short time without thinking. Secondly, always try to improve an article before putting it on deletion, rather than nominating it for deletion. Now coming to the point, is this article really not passing the general notability of Wikipedia, WP:GNG ? So, I think you should have done a little more in-depth study. If you search his name in Urdu and English, you will find mention of him in hundreds of books. And there are hundreds of books in which he is mentioned, but he has not come in the world of internet. Which is absolutely right according to Wikipedia policy, for more information you can read WP:Offline . Yes, it definitely seems to me that the way you put the article in draft in a hurry, it seems as if you have some personal enmity with him. Thanks, take care! Youknowwhoistheman ( talk ) 15:44, 29 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Youknowwhoistheman , It's strange that everyone thinks I have some sort of agenda or personal enmity with them. Rest assured, I don't have any personal issues with the subject. He's deceased—may he RIP. Tbh, I didn't want to nominate this for deletion. I wanted to give this bio a chance, which is why I draftified it instead of AfD'g it. However, you moved it back to the main NS - leaving me no other option but to bring it here. So you need to avoid WP:ATA and prove that he either meets GNG or AUTHOR. — Saqib ( talk I contribs ) 16:03, 29 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Yeah sure, it is left to other editors to decide. again, thanks you!

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 19:28, 29 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] * Keep . Meets Wikipedia's notability standards. There is an entry about this person in The Pakistan National Bibliography book from 1975 -- having a subject listed in a national book of biographies is always a good indicator of notability. Second, a Google Scholar search turns up his name referenced in a number of works . Finally, the citations provided in the article appear to be solid overall and support notability. -- SouthernNights ( talk ) 20:56, 29 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per SouthernNights. WP:BEFORE was not done properly. A simple search in Urdu newspapers brings a lot of coverage: [13] , [14] . Meets WP:NSCHOLAR .

LibStar ( talk ) 23:30, 24 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : The nomination failed to mention that one of those "gnews hits" is a lengthy article in the Bangkok Post , entirely about this film festival. Also failed to mention that the article is well-cited with multiple sources, including another lengthy article from The Nation . Demanding sources in Thai is a novel move for an AfD nomination.

Koopa Troopa: A lot of sources mention them in brief, but there is very little actual commentary on them in these sources. As it stands now, I seriously doubt that the Koopa Troopas have enough sources to build an article. I'd suggest a redirect to the Mario characters list as an AtD. Has one ever considered Magneton?

Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 ( talk ) 19:13, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per the detailed and well sourced concept and creation section, which shows the characters impact on the franchise. As I've reminded many times before, reception sections are not the only way to proving notability. A common way, but not the only. Sergecross73 msg me 19:46, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - I haven't looked into additional sources myself enough to give a recommendation at this point, but I just wanted to point out that all but one source in the Concept and Creation section are primary sources - they are all just from the "Iwata Asks" series on official Nintendo websites. And per the WP:GNG , in order to be able to help establish notability, sources need to be "independent of the subject". Rorshacma ( talk ) 20:41, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to List of Mario franchise characters#Enemy characters - even if notable it clearly fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE with a very lacking reception that feels incredibly stretched-out. No prejudice towards recreation if someone manages to find more reception. IMO there is very little difference with the issues that led Boo (character) to also be merged. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 22:39, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm struggling to understand how INDISCRIMINATE applies to this. Can you better explain? Sergecross73 msg me 00:15, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It lacks any reception besides one IGN list entry. The "Passionfruit" site is dubiously notable, and the rest belongs in Legacy not Reception. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 07:01, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That's...not what INDISCRIMINATE itself refers to. None of its points apply to this. And Passionfruit is part of The Daily Dot , which is reliable per WP:VG/S Sergecross73 msg me 15:21, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Very well, I will change my opinion to keep since things seem to be going in that direction. I'm not necessarily opposed to it, I just wasn't really sure about its current state. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 01:42, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per Serge's rationale. I don't really feel I can add on more from that though. Captain Galaxy 16:20, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Recently, ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ made an argument about another article list that "if I had known merging would have cut down this much information I wouldn't have voted to merge". That stuck with me, and I feel that is more a valid concern here. There is clearly a lot of development and legacy information in this article and how it impacted the development of the series, and when you look at the list itself there is no feasible way to maintain this information over there (the enemy sections are all short and brief), and trying to brute force it in will create a weird instance of WP:UNDUE when you compare it to how the rest of the sections are structured given there's not the same level of development info for those other enemies. One could argue too for a "death by 1000 cuts" approach: is it possible to illustrate a character is so recognizable that its notable regardless of a lack of discussion? -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 13:39, 22 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep as per Sergecross's statement. I do think that the Koopa Troopa deserve their own page, mainly because they've been in the franchise (almost) since the start. MKsLifeInANutshell ( talk ) 17:23, 22 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I find what Kung Fu Man said compelling - often, merging can be fairly destructive, and in this case, I find it difficult to see a reasonable happy middleground between giving Koopa Troopa's dev info and impact too little or too much weight on the list. While there definitely should be more info on the article, the sheer amount of info that would be lost in the merge makes it feel like no one would actually benefit. To me, I feel like we sometimes treat "having an article" as a status. Would a reader benefit from having Koopa Troopa info either dominating the enemies list or simply being absent? It's important that we don't let such a concept be used to justify the splitting of articles with hardly anything to them, but this clearly has something that's lost in a merge. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 23:16, 22 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep There's valid concerns made over just merging as Koopa Troopas have significantly more references detailing them than say, a Podoboo (or most Super Mario enemies for the matter). Plus, the current article is honestly fine as it is with the only problem being the reference formatting for some of the last few references used but otherwise, another instance of WP:DELETIONISNOTCLEANUP .

Campism: The sourcing in the article is as follows: Source assessment table: Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG ? New Politics (1) Why not? For sake of argument, why not? Seems to be about the subject of campism ✔ Yes New Politics (2) Why not? For sake of argument, why not? Seems to be about the subject of campism ✔ Yes Negation Magazine Why not? ~ I'm somewhat skeptical; this looks more like a group blog than a magazine with editorial oversight and a reputation for fact-checking. This discusses the third camp during the cold war. It doesn't discuss the term "campism" in a significant way. ✘ No Democratic Socialists of America Why not? This is the blog of a political organization. It also appears to have the standard opinion piece disclaimer of "The views and opinions presented in Socialist Forum reflect those of the individual authors, and do not necessarily reflect those of DSA". This does not discuss the term "campism" in a meaningful way, though it does go into the history of the Trotskyist third camp . ✘ No Fidel Castro's speech to the U.N. ? Cannot tell, since the link is broken, and the archive doesn't actually point to the speech. If this is merely a political speech to the United Nations by Castro, that isn't the sort of thing that makes a WP:RS . ? Source link is broken. ✘ No Third World Quarterly Why not? Why not? While this gives historical coverage of the concept of "third-worldism", it doesn't so much as mention the concept of "campism". ✘ No Open Democracy Why not?

Moot as clearly not reliable. ✘ No This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{ source assess table }} . What this brings us is two sources from the same group publication (New Politics), but WP:SIGCOV notes that [m]ultiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability . As such, we don't have multiple independent reliable sources based on the citations in the article itself. Outside of this, I was able to find some coverage of the term "campism", but it was entirely from unreliable sources like Counterpunch ( RSP entry ) and Paul Mason's substack (a blog ), or from sources that had nothing to do with the descriptor as it pertains to third world theory ( Hindustan Times ). In light of this, and the history of the term, I would advocate that the article be blanked-and-redirected to third camp , which seems to cover the relevant concept within third worldism. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 05:22, 5 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Politics-related deletion discussions .

Marie-Elisabeth von Humboldt: Present on 2 other projects, but they are entitled to make different decision. There is some evidence of being a benefactor (supporting the local parish), but that itself was inherited. The pages of Wilhelm and Alexander seem sufficiently well-developed that a merge wouldn't be helpful. Klbrain ( talk ) 18:02, 12 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Hello, what to answer? The page poses a problem for the person's notoriety. But, from the perspective of diversity in Wikipedia, I find it interesting to have the perspective of female personalities. In general, the existence of biographical writings is used to determine whether or not an article is admissible. Here, it was the subject of an article in a book, but in the 19th. From a diversity perspective, I find this article important. In itself, it does not bother people who are not interested in the subject. And people who are interested will learn something there. The article is neither a subject of contention nor a subject of controversy, it is not about a recent person, nor of self-promotion. Where is the problem ? She hasn't done enough work to have the right to appear in an encyclopedia? History of women is important itself, simple conclusion. And in the 18th, be a mother was a job. There are 5 or 6 pages linked to this page. Marion ( talk ) 18:55, 12 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I must add something : german page exist first. Then, I translated the page from german to french. Then I decided to give an emphasis the this article, by making a translation to english. So, in french, when I created the article, nothing was told about it. In german, I dont know as the article exist previously. Marion ( talk ) 19:04, 12 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] And I also want to add an argument : in wikipédia, there are more men biographies than women (statistics). And, when I read them, as I am for a long time a wikipedia reader, I noticed we often read that men "became" something, someone, an artist, a politician etc. by their own. But, here is also a part of feminist ideas, I find important to explain people grew up in an environnement. In social sciences, we used to consider the environnement as much as the person. So this page has also this aim, to remain in the 18th, people could became scientist when women were activ in the education. Because there were no schools. And because, men, with letterature wont organize themselves for children. Women did the link for that, they were central. So : I find Marie-Elisabeth has a full place in wikipedia by her own. For the reason why, research in that field progress (role of women in the Royalties times) in social sciences and this article can be developped in the future. We are more in a time where we find informations about women than in a time where we consider women are part of their husband life or "only mother". Be a mother is something, women who read wikipedia, can find as as much important than being politician. Because, there are so many ways to be mother than to be politician. And not all women dream to be politcian or artist or scientist. So my hypothesis, is, that more women would read wikipedia if there are more diversities in biographies as well. But of course, it is an hypothesis made because I studied social scientist, I used to consider feminists ideas. And in France there is wikipedia project quite activ, but I am not part of it directly, I follow it from far, it is called "the without pages" (les sans pages) where people create biographies of forgotten women. Marion ( talk ) 06:23, 13 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] And to conclude : I really don't appreciate the method. I am very strict on that way even when I contribute in french wikipedia (my main activity anyway). When something hurt someone but, when that problem dont bring a real deficcience to the full project of wikipedia, a simple discussion inside the article page of discussion, would be enough to start a debate. Always bring deleting process to start a discussion is an abuse. If we do that, wikipedia dont increase, but decrease, more quickly than social sciences increase. So do whatever you want, I dont appreciate the way. Marion ( talk ) 06:28, 13 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete unless it can be expanded to say more about the subject. Nearly everything in the article currently is not about her - it is about her family, her husbands, and what happened with her bequest after she died. Marion Leconte , I take your point, but the Notability rules are the same for men and women - the question is whether there is enough material about her (not the people around her, but her) to support an article. At the moment it isn't there, but I will be happy to change my view if extra relevant material can be added. -- Gronk Oz ( talk ) 09:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Women and Germany .

Talk! 18:36, 19 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] As I proposed, maintaining my delete position. Regarding the Falkenberg estate, the expansion there can readily be described on the Falkenberg (Berlin) page (which is what is done over on .de). If family relationships are seen as important, these should should sit on the articles of one of the sons (or, indeed, why not for one of the husbands). Klbrain ( talk ) 14:01, 20 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I maintain my arguments. I understand the point of view for deleting this article. But, in the reason of diversity, we need to accept, motherhood and planning education of children is important as much as people who organised wars, planned destructions or else. No place for her in her husband pages : they don't exist (if I dont mistake). Marion ( talk ) 18:03, 20 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The importance of the motherhood and fatherhood and planning the educations is undisputable, but this isn't a good case study of any of these. The source that support Marie's maternal care for her children is a 19th century hagiography "The mothers of great men and women ...". The other key sources, Minguet (1969) has a quite different view (automated translation of paragraph 19 of 'Première période' ) Marie Elisabeth von Humboldt, was a haughty, cold woman who had little emotional relationship with her children. After the disappearance of her husband, who was a "...man of pleasant trade, of lively and cheerful conversation"... it is on the contrary, "... an atmosphere of compassed formalism and boredom created around her Madame de Humboldt mother". Klbrain ( talk ) 23:47, 21 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Ok, this is a personnal point of view (yours). But people spoke about her, she has a public notoriety and there is a picture in common, a category in common, an article in german, and 6 english spoken articles who mention her name. Wikipedia speaks about people who have been previously subject of books or studies, which is her case. Mothers, good in education, are not always warmfull. Education of today, principle of "love" (children's care) was not main stream at that time, I could add studies about that topic int this article, if the problem points there.

David Rossi: Sources are either episodes (primary) or secondary sources that are interviews or more about the actor, and a quick Google search does not give any sources that prove individual notability, and per WP:N , it is not worth a standalone article.

While there seems to be some coverage in sources [53] , [54] , [55] , the extent to which this is non-routine and significant is questionable. He is a recurring character, but most other recurring characters for this show don't have their own article and so I don't see a reason why he should either. Willbb234 16:49, 27 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - article for a major character in a major TV show is expected and accepted on WP. There are numerous third party sources discussing the character (in fact, there are pages of Google News results, not all diamonds, but there is a lot, and there are many in RS). There is a lot of plot discussion in the article, but that is an inditement on the quality of the article, not whether it should be deleted. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 18:55, 27 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Can you provide some examples please. Willbb234 19:57, 27 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Just because something has a lot of sources does not mean that it is inherently notable. This would technically count as WP:SOURCESEARCH . Spinixster (chat!) 08:52, 28 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Here are 10 different sources. I'm not saying this is going to be a featured article, but this should be more than sufficient to pass GNG.

Some critical analysis would do the trick. Willbb234 23:31, 28 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I am not aware of any guideline which tells us to disregard sources which are aimed at fans of a show. But you’re entitled to your view. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 00:00, 29 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Reviewing the sources... First source is both a plot summary and an interview. Second source is an interview. Third source is quoted from an interview. Fourth source is quoted from an interview. Fifth source is a plot summary. Sixth source is a sneak peek of the show. Seventh source is an interview about the character's comeback. Eighth source is an interview about the character's departure. Ninth source is a teaser about the character's romance. CinemaBlend is listed as unreliable in WP:VG/S either way so it shouldn't be used. Tenth source is a plot summary for the final episode. Overall, you will need non-trivial sources that talk extensively about the character. Interviews (which are primary) and plot summaries aren't going to cut it. Sources that prove the character's significance outside of the show will. Spinixster (chat!) 09:50, 29 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] No, I don't 'need' anything. And if you want to hold TV character pages to this high of a standard, I advise you to get started, because there are hundreds of pages you missed. Not to mention movie, book, and comic characters. I know "other stuff exists" but let's be real. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 12:40, 29 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] "This high of a standard" is wrong; Wikipedia has always had "high" standards for pages. This rule even applies to non-fictional elements, in fact, it's already listed in WP:GNG . It's just that only a few people check these pages and actively check if they are notable, and if I nominate the "hundreds of pages I missed" at the same time, AfD would be overwhelmed.

Appin (company): The subject of the article is in legal litigation with Reuters the publisher of the major source cited in the article. Reuters has taken down the report from its website in compliance with an Indian court order. See Reuters editor’s note here [ [55] ]. Other sources cited all quoted the Reuters report that is no longer in public domain. In this [ [56] ], SentinelLab quoted the Reuters report as its own source: “After an extensive review of this data, brought to our attention by Reuters investigative journalists”, then this [ [57] ] quoted SentinelLab as its own source all linking back to the Reuters report. These sources can no longer be relied upon as the original source of information has been taken down by a court order. The remaining sources in the article only reported the court order forcing Reuters to take down the article. Metroick ( talk ) 05:12, 15 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep This company is detailed in this earlier Reuters report [58] which was not taken down. Further, the court order and the impugned report are discussed here [59] and here [60] . The litigation is publicly acknowledged by Reuters. And, as noted in the 404 Media article the article is still on Internet Archive. That should be enough for notability. There may be some basis to say the facts in the impugned article aren't verifiable, because the article is no longer truly published pending court scrutiny, but that's a pretty slender reed. As to the issue of libel, although I can not find the Indian court order it was a preliminary order. That likely means substantive determinations on the Reuters article (again, only the one report which was taken down, not the still-live one linked above) are yet-to-come. So it's highly unlikely, and certainly not reported anywhere I can see, the report has been found to be libelous. If libel is found by the court at some later date, this article could be reconsidered on that basis.

I don't think it can meet WP:LIBEL if it's verifiable and cited to reliable sources, and Reuters is a pretty top-tier RS, whose report is based not on one or two anonymous sources but on an investigation by three reporters who have a history of covering this subject area (one of whom has won an award for it). Reuters says it stands by its reporting, and RS that have covered the company after Reuters's removal (like 404media) do not treat the reporting as suspect, rather they blame lack of press freedom in India. It reminds me of Pierre-sur-Haute military radio station , where we kept the article despite legal threats (against a Wikipedian, not just a news outlet). I would also oppose a move since the "main" story is the revelations, not the Reuters lawsuit about the revelations.

It can be recreated after the final verdict if it goes in favour of Reuters which is confident in its journalists and their reporting by stating that it stands by its reporting. The issue here is not about the notability of the company but the lawsuit. It will not be surprising if the company sue the other sources cited in the article as some of them quoted Reuters reporting as their source and if that happens it may lead to the taking down of such press articles thereby stripping this article of its major sources. Lagdo22 ( talk ) 12:02, 17 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep The accusations were provided by Reuters, which is one of the highest regarded RS, and they continue to stand by their reporting. Since the article was pulled down by only a prima facie court order, Reuters has not had an opportunity to defend their reporting. If it turns out the content was falsified Reuters would retract the article and the article can be reconsidered then.

William Rhodes (cricketer, born 1883): Dazzling4 ( talk ) 16:29, 15 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople , Cricket , and England . Shellwood ( talk ) 17:44, 15 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] A very quick initial look makes me think that this is either a keep, based on NEXIST, or a redirect to the List of Yorkshire County Cricket Club players - which is the long established consensus for dealing with articles where we can find so little biographical information to create an article and have little chance of doing so. In this case we have dates and the era in which he played. Playing for Yorkshire Second XI plenty of times between 1911 and 1913 suggests to me that there's a likelihood that sources exist in regional newspapers - presumably the Yorkshire Post and others. Put that alongside the offline Yorkshire book source already offered and I wonder how much detail there is on the bloke.

The Baumoff Explosive: Nothing much found to show that the story has notability against the inclusion criteria.

JMWt ( talk ) 09:40, 9 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep While it is correct that the article is lacking sources, I believe the topic is notable: The Routledge Companion to Science Fiction , p. 514, and Science-fiction, the Early Years , p. 367, each have a paragraph dealing with the story. This PhD thesis has more, distributed throughout. Icons of Horror and the Supernatural , p. 79, also has commentary, but I cannot see the extent. Together that's enough to support a reasonable article. Daranios ( talk ) 10:23, 9 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Äther - Ein Medium der Moderne , pp. 213-215, has two full pages discussing the story, but focussing on Hodgson's use of the titular Äther = ether in it. Daranios ( talk ) 10:29, 9 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment , (note this was an edit-conflict with the above opinion, but I'm posting it unchanged): this is an awkward one. (1) the bar for notability of fiction is a very lopsided one; modern fiction can be assessed on the basis of independent reviews, but there wasn't so much reviewing back in 1919, and anything that got written about it back then will be hard to find. This problem is noted at WP:OLDBOOK . There, we're urged to use common sense, and consider the number of times the book has been reprinted. Since this 1919 story is still readily available more than a century later, I'd say there's a reasonable case that it has contributed to the history of literature and is notable in wikipedia terms. But (2) Hodgson's work is covered here in a weird way. We also have List of stories by William Hope Hodgson , which presumably exists to avoid William Hope Hodgson becoming too long. Many of the related series that he wrote have their own separate lists. (3) Overall, I'm in favour of keeping plot-summaries of his short stories somewhere , but I don't care whether this article, which is basically a plot summary, is kept as a stand-alone article, or merged into List of stories by William Hope Hodgson , which already contains plot-summaries of similar length for some other stories. My main worry about the merge option is that someone will then find the list-of-stories, be horrified by its length, and nominate it for deletion based on its lack of secondary sourcing. But the plot summaries themselves are fundamentally useful to readers, and verifiable.

Klefki: Both of the Kotaku articles are written in a heavily blog-style way, which WP:VG/S warns about: "editors are cautioned of blog/geeky posts that have little news or reporting significance".

I find the argument of "the tone is too unserious" (strong paraphrasing) very rarely applied to this degree, and I would argue that it most definitely does not apply here. The example used at WP:VG/S is this: [23] Specifically, the discussion here is where the consensus came from, where a user argues "My only concern is that Kotaku will also still run geek'ed out articles (eg, anything tagged "fanart" for example)". Rather than this article being an attempt to ignore the previous AfD, I feel that this AfD's argument is an attempt to ignore the context behind the discussion in order to get an article deleted that you personally feel does not suit GNG. From an article that was AfD'd in the past, Deathclaw , is this source, which you used and defended : [24] I would contend that this runs afoul of the consensus on Kotaku's use, where the author is just reposting stuff about a mod, as opposed to the source you take issue with, where the author gives their own opinion on the subject. As an aside, you have been around enough that you should understand that it is appropriate to notify all editors that would reasonably expect to be notified as part of this AfD. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 16:34, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment While I'm not going to vote on this particular article as of yet, I am going to comment on the nominator's particularly aggressive tone as being a bit much, and while I'm assuming good faith I feel saying stuff like "this feels like an attempt to ignore the previous deletion discussion in 2021" is not. Additionally I feel that bringing up the previous AfD is a bit unfair, as comparing the two articles there has been significant improvement, while the heavy focus on the previous AfD in the nomination gives the indication "it's just the same article". -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 17:37, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Additional comment Expanding on this, the primary argument in the above, that this article by Patricia Hernandez is a "geeky blog post", it provides three things to the subject in question: an examination of the character, a statement regarding it's popularity and her reaction to that, and an examination of it in a broader real world sense both compared to other designs in the series and folklore. While there's definitely a "tongue in cheek" element of some of the commentary, nonetheless she is making a comparison, and Zx you yourself have argued for outright significantly tongue in cheek sources from this publication in other AfD discussions. A consistent mindset given the frequency of your nominations would be nice.-- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 17:44, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Honestly, I'd say this is a more concerning example of gaming the system . I would agree that the Sigma source is fine, but the fact that Zx regards it as acceptable despite being significantly more tongue in cheek makes me feel that he is arbitrarily applying consensus on Kotaku in this case depending on whether he opposes or supports deletion, which is an extremely serious issue with an AfD nomination. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 18:03, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think it's pretty clear there is nothing arbitrary about my deletion nominations, which is a big insinuation. In Sigma's case, the article isn't dependent on that source to prove notability. In the case of Klefki, those are arguably the only reliable sources mentioning Klefki in a significant way that could count towards notability. NME is a simple announcement; TheGamer is about object Pokemon in general, a discrete subject. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 00:56, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Zx you used one half joking comment about turtles in the light of simplistic design to discredit a whole article but somehow argument an article built around "these two characters are named Sigma, let's compare them" as an article you argued for as a valid source. Can you reasonably not see a problem there? -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 01:32, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think that claiming that an editor ignored a prior AfD is a big insinuation. Additionally, if this was the only example, maybe you would have a point, but as has been shown, you do have a pattern of defending geeky blog posts from Kotaku. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 02:25, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Given the massive amount of pop-culture references in Overwatch, including retro video games, comparing Sigma to Sigma is not necessarily as goofy as it appears, despite your arguments it is essentially the same and I am a hypocrite. And my problem was not just that the turtles comment was humorous, it's just outright ludicrous. Charmander is a lizard; you have to squint really, really hard to even see Bulbasaur as somewhat being similar to a turtle. It doesn't bode well for the author who wrote it. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 06:25, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I had a long write-up about the fact that you're impugning the writer based on a factual inaccuracy (I can't imagine how few sources would be usable if we held all authors to this standard), but I think I'll save it, because the fact that you're honestly framing the Overwatch article as not being very tongue-in-cheek is absolutely shocking. The author literally frames it as an investigation of if they're the same person, a framing that is patently absurd if you were presenting it seriously. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 07:55, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - There seems a lot of comment here on the nom. , but what is important is the sources. Looking at these sources, many are clearly primary, so could someone suggest the WP:THREE best sources you would like me to take a look at. Thanks. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 18:13, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Here are what I would consider the strongest sources: [25] [26] [27] [28] - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 18:22, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] There is also this source , where the interviewer asks about its creation, with the implication being that the question came about as a result of the negative reception. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 18:28, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep On top of what was there before, there have been several more sources added to the article since. I'd say that it's more than enough to justify Klefki's existence. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 ( talk ) 22:34, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to List of generation VI Pokémon#Klefki - Asked for WP:THREE and got five. Let's look at them. [29] is Kotaku , a gamer news site although also described as a blog. Despite being a blog, it appears to have editorial oversight and can be given a pass on reliability. But the review opens with "...new Pokémon designs... are they any good?" This then is a WP:PRIMARY source and primary sources do not count towards notability. Per WP:GNG , sources should be secondary. The fact that some new thing is written about in specialist review sites that write on the subject when it is new tells us nothing about notability, and neither can this be considered sustained coverage. So that one won't do. [30] is also Kotaku. The writer is different and not an editor, but the same comments apply. Primary sourcing. So what of the others? [31] has "Fans have discovered that ‘Pokémon Klefki’ is available in multiple regions". This is also primary, in a generally reliable source per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources . Then we have [32] . This one is, at least, speaking about a subject and concept. It is talking about "Object Pokemon". Klefki is not the subject of the article but mentioned as an example of Object Pokemon. This article might be some evidence for an article on the class of Pokemon that are objects, and Klefki would be a valid redirect there, but it does not contain significant coverage of Klefki itself. Finally [33] starts off with "The latest core entry in the Pokémon franchise is the biggest step forward the series has taken in many years." This sounds good, but actually it is not talking about Klefki. Klefki just gets passing mention as part of a discussion of improvements. Additionally this is another primary source. So, in short, there is nothing here that speaks to an enduring notability of Klefki as a subject in itself. Pokemon is notable but notability is not inherited. Nothing in these sources shows why Klefki as a concept or character is independently notable of Pokemon. I would happily consider an alternative redirect if there were a notable object pokemon subject page. I can't find one though, so the original redirect as an outcome of the first AFD appears correct. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 09:37, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I am not in agreement that Kotaku is a primary source. Neither of their articles are written by or hosted on sources directly involved or close to an event. The policy says "insider," and the examples are a scientist's comments of their own results and a first-hand eye witness comment, neither of which could be comparable to critic commentary on a subject. What part of this section of policy are you arguing Kotaku fits under? - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 09:45, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think you may be confusing independence with primary sourcing. If someone writes about some new thing when it is new and because it is new, it is a primary source. Have a read of WP:PRIMARY and also WP:PRIMARYNEWS . Note, however, what PRIMARYNEWS says about book reviews. That is why I gave more weight to [34] - but as I pointed out, the secondary coverage there was on the concept of object pokemon, and not Klefki. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 10:10, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Firstly, the argument that it was written about because it was new does not apply to the second Kotaku article, which was written six years after the release of its game of origin. Secondly, I would contend that the first Kotaku citation is an example of a "book review." It may have been written as a response to X and Y's newness, but it's also in-depth commentary by the author of an aspect of the game. Looking at WP:SECONDARY , the article fits this much better: "A secondary source provides thought and reflection based on primary sources, generally at least one step removed from an event. It contains analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources." In the example, it suggests a military historian's talk about the life experiences of their own experiences as an example where a secondary source may be a primary source. In this case, the author is providing "analysis, evaluation, interpretation" and "synthesis of the facts," rather than being used to recount anything about herself. I strongly disagree with this interpretation of primary and secondary sourcing. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 10:36, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Are we talking about the same article? The Kotaku article is primary. Ask yourself, what is it in that article that suggests Klefki is an independently notable thing? Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 12:03, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The fact that the author elected to go into significant detail about it. Or, more on the nose, the fact that the author describes Klefki as a notable Pokemon, and says so in such a way that makes clear that it stands out from most other Pokemon. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 12:07, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It says it is notable for being ridiculous. But that is not WP:N that is the opinion of the author writing in a primary source as to why, at the time of introduction, this was getting attention. I have spent quite a bit of time looking at what you selected as the five best sources, and I think I have said all that needs saying on these. My view above stands. I'll leave it there, thanks. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 12:25, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] No strong opinion on whether this article should be spun out, but I don't think this (Sirfurboy's interpretation) is the standard interpretation of WP:PRIMARY as it applies to notability-conferring sources. Reviews contain primary information on the opinions of the reviewer, but secondary information on the thing under review. See the footnote in the cited guideline, saying that reviews are evidence of notability: Having multiple coverages in book reviews is considered one of the notability criteria for books; book reviews should be considered as supporting sources in articles about books. ~ A412 talk! 19:27, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I both linked to PRIMARYNEWS and signalled what it said about how a book review can be secondary, and by analogy, why one of the above can be understood to be secondary. I also pointed out why the others are primary. An article starting "...new Pokémon designs... are they any good?" is primary. Books can be deemed notable provided they have suitable reviews, yes. But this is not a comparable particular. We are not talking about a game (analagous to a book) but to a specific character, and thus comparable to a book character. The notability guideline for books (NBOOKS) is not analagous. We are looking at WP:GNG here. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 20:18, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm not drawing the analogies to book reviews because I think NBOOKS is analogous to video game characters, I'm citing them because I don't think your position reflects consensus on whether review pieces on newly released things are primary, which by my reading, they are not. This time from PRIMARYNEWS: "Book reviews are generally secondary sources if they provide information beyond a basic description of the book's contents". Perhaps we disagree whether the Kotaku source does "provide information beyond a basic description", but I think it clearly does. ~ A412 talk! 21:12, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That is exactly what I highlighted when I said Note, however, what PRIMARYNEWS says about book reviews. That is why I gave more weight to [12] . So yes, if you think a review of whats new Pokemon designs that describes one called Klefki, with a basic description of what Klefki is is a secondary source, then we are very much in disagreement about what constitutes a secondary source. The review is this one [35] . It is all description and no analysis. This is someone describing a new character in a game. No analysis. It is reporting. It is a primary source. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 21:59, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The author analyzed its possible origins. The concept that Klefki is a tsukumogami is an original concept proposed by her, as a response to the discourse over whether Klefki was an unoriginal design. Hernandez does not report, for example, that Klefki is a more interesting design than the original starters. This is all clearly analysis. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 23:15, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Just another editor chiming in that, while I can see varying arguments on whether or not its significant coverage, the claim that Kotaku is somehow a primary source for a Pokemon is way, way off. Sergecross73 msg me 19:05, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The piece is literally reporting on the latest Pokemon characters and describing what has been released. Please take a look at WP:PRIMARYNEWS . In what way is that secondary? Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 19:12, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The question was answered previously, I do not know why you have not responded. Once again, the notion that Klefki is a tsukumogami is NOT "describing what has been released," it is an original analysis of the subject. I have no earthly idea why you are holding this position, but I worry that you are drastically misunderstanding what the source says. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 19:16, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Have you read this whole discussion? Your assertion is widely (unanimously even?) being rejected as incorrect. This is not a news event, it's a fictional character. If Nintendo or Pokemon Company -the subject's creator - were writing the article on their website, it would be primary coverage. Or if Kotaku were just reposting a Nintendo press release, it would be primary. But Kotaku's own writing on Pokemon is not primary, as they have no actual connection with the subject. Sergecross73 msg me 20:27, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] This is not a news event, it's a fictional character. And this is why I pointed to what PRIMARYNEWS says about book reviews, reviews of works of fiction. Book reviews are secondary when they provide information beyond a basic description of the book's contents. Book reviews are often a mix of primary and secondary material . We don't seem to provide an academic discussion of sourcing of Pokemon characters, but this is making the exact and comparable point about fictional characters. And for the level of review that one expects to find to show the notability of a fictional character, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Savely Govorkov . As the review in question about the new pokemon character is just a description of the pokemon a report that people are talking about it, more description of its battle prowess, and sandwiched in all that, 4 words that might pass for analysis: "it's kind of ridiculous," this is a primary source. I am not saying all reviews are primary. I specifically said the opposite from the start. I am saying this one, based on its content and its proximity to the release, contains no secondary analysis (unless you want to credit "its kind of ridiculous"). It is reporting of something that is new. It is a primary source. I am entirely unconcerned that people may be disagreeing with my view here. The simple fact of the matter is there is no secondary analysis in that article. It is not a secondary source. Further, the lack of connection with the subject you mention is a red herring here. That makes this independent and sources also have to be independent, but see, for instance, WP:Secondary does not mean independent . It must be secondary and independent. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk ) 21:13, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm sorry, but I don't believe your application, or the bar you've set is consistent with common community interpretation. Sergecross73 msg me 21:53, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I agree with Sergecross wholeheartedly here. Judging by unanimous opinion that the argument is very strange, I'm encouraging you to consider that your own interpretation of what a primary source is may be incorrect. You also seem to have completely misunderstood the contents of the article, given that, once again, the article at multiple points discusses the character in terms and ideas not inherent or official to the character. - Cukie Gherkin ( talk ) 22:08, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Sorry to jump in, but I'd like to point out that all of this back-and-forth is going to make it harder for the closer to make a determination. Everybody has made their point by now, and in my opinion, it's best if we let other people consider what's here, look at the article, and make their own judgment. Toughpigs ( talk ) 22:13, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think we're still okay, as we're still trending pretty strongly towards "keep" at the moment, but I don't plan on commenting further regardless. Sergecross73 msg me 00:17, 22 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : I largely agree with Cukie Gherkin that this is not the same article that was merged three years ago, and that these are not primary sources. The "strongest sources" that Cukie provided in here (particularly, both Kotaku sources and the Game Informer source) show that Klefki has enough notability for a standalone article, as does the Screen Rant source cited in the article, and possibly more. MoonJet ( talk ) 16:26, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : The Kotaku review that's under discussion ( [36] ) seems reasonably strong to me. It is clearly commentary and not just description. I am not convinced by Sirfurboy's argument that apparently everything in the world is primary, and I am not convinced by the nominator's argument that the review should be discounted because it contains a silly sentence. Toughpigs ( talk ) 23:23, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : I'm going to be honest, I was surprised this got made at first because I had tried to make an article for either of the well loathed object mons of gen 5, but there wasn't anything as biting. But I was even more surprised when I did check the sources and I feel this article is more than justified due to the commentary for Klefki. I think what would set this article apart from other "object pokemon" is that whilst yes it features in listicles here, it also has the articles about this pokemon specifically, which I can't really say for a pokemon like Vanillish. Especially the Kotaku source, which as Touchpigs has mentioned above, seems quite in-depth in terms of commentary, even if slightly blog like. These sources I do not believe to be primary at all, that's not how I would ever view an article like this before at all. That is all, Captain Galaxy 00:38, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : While there is a lot of commentary on the "object" Pokemon from this generation of Pokemon games, particularity stuff like the ice cream or garbage bag and whatnot, I feel Klefki stands out a bit for how much commentary there was, but also because the criticism reached so much it resulted in a question directed towards Sugimori. I feel that shows some degree of real world impact, albeit how light, and Klefki works as an example of contrasting the later generations of Pokemon to their earlier counterparts, even if it is a "Death by 1000 cuts" situation. -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 23:26, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - I don't think it's a "home run" for notability, but per my and others comments above, I think it's it enough to clear the minimum bar of the GNG, and like others, reject the notion of some of the third party sourcing like Kotaku being a primary source. Sergecross73 msg me 00:17, 22 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : I didn't record a bolded vote earlier, but per my rationale in my threaded comment that Kotaku, and other sources, represent independent secondary sources (even if I'm not thrilled with the quality of said sources). ~ A412 talk! 07:48, 22 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep The sources presented makes Klefki meet WP:GNG . The Kotaku source is obviously secondary and independent. Skyshifter talk 12:29, 22 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

BottleOfChocolateMilk ( talk ) 23:36, 18 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Hold our horses - NPOL exists because there's a presumption of coverage. New Hampshire has one legislator for every 3,300 people, which is one of the lowest if not the lowest in the entire world. Are we sure he has coverage as a result? There's nothing in the article apart from his legislative profile and the sources found here aren't about him. SportingFlyer T · C 10:37, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It can't be true that NPOL exists because there's a presumption of coverage. If there were coverage the GNG would suffice. NPOL must exist because sometimes there's not coverage but the subject is notable anyway. The presumption of notability in NPOL is not a rebuttable presumption . It's a guarantee of notability. That this is the case is clear from the discussion of local officials and unelected candidates at the bottom of the guideline, where it states: Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability If elected state level officials weren't guaranteed notability by NPOL it wouldn't be necessary to explicitly state that local officials were not. Central and Adams ( talk ) 13:43, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That's not what "presumed" means - the dictionary definition is literally "to take for granted as being true in the absence of proof to the contrary." We typically presume politicians will be notable because they should easily have received significant coverage, even if we can't find coverage of them. I'm not convinced that's the case here. SportingFlyer T · C 21:41, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It literally is what one sense of the word "presume" is. I don't know what dictionary you're using, but the OED notes what you quoted as only one of two meanings, the other being "To assume; to take for granted; to presuppose; to anticipate, count upon, or expect". Which sense is intended is, as with all polysemous words, determined by context, which is why I argued from the context that the meaning here is as I stated. You're talking about the definition of a rebuttable presumption. My argument is that the sense meant here is an irrebuttable presumption. Central and Adams ( talk ) 22:24, 19 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Central and Adams Greetings. You said, NPOL must exist because sometimes there's not coverage but the subject is notable anyway . -If a person is indeed notable, then why won't they get proper coverage? To my understanding, notability is vehemently based on coverage. How can a person be notable and not have coverage? What is notability based on if not on coverage? We give people freebies if they've won some reputable awards or an academic or a notable politician, but I don't think you'd find many person not having coverage meeting any of these criteria properly. I'd like your take on that. (PS: Agreeing with @ SportingFlyer on this) We typically presume politicians will be notable because they should easily have received significant coverage, even if we can't find coverage of them. I'm not convinced that's the case here. . X ( talk ) 08:20, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If notability is based solely on coverage then why would we need any notability guidelines other than the GNG? The very fact that NPOL contains a presumption of notability shows that it must apply in the absence of coverage. If there were coverage it wouldn't be necessary to have a presumption of notability. If all NPOL meant were that politicians are notable unless there's no coverage it would say the same thing as the GNG, so why would it exist? Central and Adams ( talk ) 09:48, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] We really only do have the GNG. We have presumptions because it makes it easier to figure out what can and can't be covered, but in the past few years we have generally tied the presumptions very close to the GNG. The NPOL presumption exists because if you're a member of a state legislature, it is almost certain you will have been written about in reliable secondary sources, which is helpful for say someone who was a member of a historical legislature who we can't access sources for. In O'Brien's case, he's an active legislator, but one source is just the state website, the other source in the article just shows he's an alderman (the only thing on him on that website is his address) and a ballotpedia page, which is a wiki. Because of the fact there's no secondary information we can use to build this page out, and also due to WP:BLP concerns, it's probably best if this were redirected somewhere, and the information in the article merged there until we can write a stand-alone article. Also, I think this would be pretty close to being New Hampshire-specific, considering how few people vote on state legislators there. Most other MPs have much larger constituencies and as such have much more written about them. SportingFlyer T · C 16:21, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Not sure why you say there's no secondary information. It took me about ten minutes to find a ton of it, which I added to the article. But I still maintain that even if this weren't possible to do the dude would still pass NPOL. Also, it's not true that we really only do have the GNG. WP:N says explicitly that a subject is notable if it passes either the GNG or a subject specific guideline. Central and Adams ( talk ) 17:03, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That's not how it's been interpreted recently for most guidelines anymore, but there are a few exceptions. The new coverage removes any objections I've had, though. SportingFlyer T · C 17:08, 21 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep As a member of New Hampshire House of Representatives , meets WP:NPOL . As long as it is verifiable the individual holds the office, state legislators are worthy of a stand alone article.

Hey man im josh ( talk ) 16:55, 23 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ CGGCA201 : Welcome to Wikipedia! I see this is the first time you have nominated an article for deletion. A few minutes before this nomination, you nominated Neeru Yadav (which I'm yet to look at), so these are your first entries. A pre-requisite before nominating is to do some checks as part of WP:BEFORE . Dhanraj Nathwani is the President, and not vice president as your nomination states. I understand that the Career section states vice president, while the lead states president, and the references are from 2019, but he was elected president few months back. See [1] or the GCA page which should have been part of your WP:BEFORE . Jay 💬 17:47, 23 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Jay WP:BEFORE check is a must, noted. However, I am currently having some difficulty comprehending how to modify the nomination statement. CGGCA201 ( talk ) 00:04, 24 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If all you want is to change one word, you can use the strike out (... as the vice president of the ...), so participants know what the wordings were earlier. If you want to change the rationale of the nomination, you may strike out the entire nomination, and write your new reasoning under it. If you wish to withdraw, you can add a line under your nomination saying you wish to withdraw and a closer will close the AfD before the scheduled 7 days.

Jay 💬 08:54, 24 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Jay cricket associations in India are political hotbeds . Regarding Nathwani, how can someone who doesn't have a cricketing background ascend to the presidency of a state cricket administrative body? If he doesn't satisfy the NPOL criteria, he appears to fall short of other Wikipedia standards as well, including the WP:GNG , WP:BIO , and WP:SNG . CGGCA201 ( talk ) 17:59, 24 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I don't have the answer to your question on the criteria for presidency of GCA. The point here is does NPOL matter. The article does not call him a politician. Do others, including himself, project him as a policitian? I didn't understand the second part of your sentence. Are you saying that GNG, BIO, SNG are dependent on NPOL? Jay 💬 17:03, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Do others, including himself, project him as a policitian? The Answer is Yes. Scroll article excerpt : "Dhanraj Nathwani, son of Parimal Nathwani , the Reliance Industries’ Group President overseeing Corporate Affairs and Projects, is vice-president of the committee managing the Dwarkadhish temple in Gujarat. Why would corporate bosses want to be managing temples? According to the sociologist, this adds to the company’s security in relation to the state government. “If they can control the Vaishnav sampradaya, it gives them a political advantage,” he explained." His social media posts, specifically the thread, mostly revolve around political pleasantries rather than his actual role in Reliance corporate affairs. This evidence is sufficient to demonstrate his portrayal of political ambitions. Facebook post : depicts political inclination Another Facebook post : depicts political inclination Now, turning to the second portion of my statement. From my understanding of the notability guidelines, WP:NPOL is an extremely specific category that is considered a final option when we are unable to assess someone's notability according to WP:GNG / WP:BIO at the initial stage, or WP:SNG at an intermediate stage. CGGCA201 ( talk ) 04:28, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for responding on the "projecting" part. I was looking for something more explicit. An analyst in his commentary talks about political advantage, and social media posts indicate his ideological leanings. If he had claimed he is a politician, or others had said so, and if the presence of his article on Wikipedia was as a result of the claim of his notability as a policitian, NPOL would have been applicable, however what we have now is a subject who is an industrialist and administrator. What you have said regarding NPOL is one of the usages of NPOL, but the way you had worded it in your previous post was misleading. If a subject who is a politician satisifies GNG, it is not necessary that he satisfy NPOL, and vice versa. So considered on their own, they are not dependent. See the WP:BIO #Additional criteria on how the basic and additional criteria work.

This article was previously nominated for deletion and speedily kept after the nominator learned that offline sources are acceptable for Wikipedia. I cannot evaluate the offline Gujarati-language sources cited in the article, but I think the English-language sources are likely sufficient to meet the GNG, in that they demonstrate nontrivial coverage of the article subject in independent reliable sources.

Interestingly, it also highlights a pattern in his career advancement. It appears that positions previously held by his father, whether in Reliance Industries, Gujarat Cricket Association, or Dwarka Devasthan Samiti, have been directly transferred to him without any opposition. It is quite evident that when his father resigns from Rajya Sabha, it is highly likely that Dhanraj will pursue that position without facing any opposition.

StoneToss: (Previous discussions: [5] , [6] ) As observed in WP:BEFORE , the subject status has not changed since the previous 2 deletions - that of a controversial social media artist. As before, the article struggles with WP:RS and WP:NPOV . Article is also WP:BLP and does not appear to contain any listed item to satisfy WP:ARTIST . All sourced material to the subject involve activity that occur exclusively on social media. The article first sentence, short description, and page category refers to the subject as a "neo-nazi" cartoonist. This is despite the claim being disputed by the subject within the sourced materials itself. [7] [8] WP:NPOV Other material for the article include; sources from political outlets [9] [10] including those calling for the subject's deplatforming [11] per WP:RS , sources that include only short or single-sentence blurbs on the subject [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] WP:SIGCOV , and sources listed as dubious by wikipedia [18] [19] WP:RS . One notable source [20] claims that the subject is a neo-nazi, but itself references a single quote by a user banned on the X platform in relation to the subject. In every single case, the referenced material exclusively concerns interactions on social media.

Stonetoss having many detractors is not a major issue since most of his detractors are not Wikipedia editors and some of his most vocal supporters are likely to be editors as well (generalizing based on the wider population). I would be willing to take on the task of rewriting this article in a neutral POV. The claim that this article's existence hinges on social media interactions is inaccurate, since Stonetoss has a long history of publishing comics that espouse the author's views such as [this anti-Semitic one (Archive link [url= https://web.archive.org/web/20240117231253/https://stonetoss.com/comic/as-above-so-below/ ]). Publishing content on the internet that is subsequently reblogged on social media sites does not seem sufficient to describe someone as a "social media artist". As far as notability is concerned, I might have been favour of moving the content to a "far right pipeline" or similar article, even after the doxxing incident, but X/Twitter removing mentions of Stonetoss' identity and suppressing journalist accounts elevates the notability of the original account and will result in increased searches for the author's online name. The figure is notable in far right circles, even though far right views are niche among the general population.

None of these sources show any more notability than the past discussion. They’re all in the context of one event ( WP:BLP1E ), him getting doxed, and none of the reliable sources analyze his works. The new sources in existence do not actually discuss what would, hypothetically, be notable about him - the content of his comics. He got doxed, and then people got banned for reporting on it. Add that to the article about controversies relating to Twitter that I’m sure we have.

PARAKANYAA ( talk ) 22:20, 21 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If their works are barely discussed in the sources we have on them, how are we able to have the content found in Special:Permalink/1214892159#Content and reception ? — Alalch E. 22:38, 21 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Looking at the sources in this section, ADL - passing mention GNET report - passing mention GNET - mentions him exclusively in the context of a Reddit conflict with little analysis of what he actually says besides racist the daily dot - listed as no consensus on reliability; IMO they are not good for notability when it comes to the internet because they have a penchant for covering random internet drama that no other outlet cares about ECPS - this one is good CEP - this is an opinion blog PARAKANYAA ( talk ) 00:33, 22 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks, that's a fair analysis, but but this is also SIGCOV: Marlin-Bennett, Renée; Jackson, Susan T (February 9, 2022).

RPI2026F1 ( talk ) 14:47, 22 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete It's worth noting that the page [24] of the individual named in connection with the article has already been deleted per WP:G10 , gross abuse of WP:BLP . As noted in the previous two successful deletion nominations, the subject and its controversy tends to suffer from WP:NPOV and might be the subject to WP:BATTLE . Some users claim no issue with WP:GNG , but as per Wikipedia:Notability (people) , which covers biographies of living persons, the relevant criteria is WP:ARTIST and remains unsatisfied. ( WP:GNG specifically links to Wikipedia:Notability (people) in that case). Most of the cited coverage is complaining about the content and not much else. A chartable interpretation might be that the subject is WP:BLP1E for being recently doxed, but the consensus of the prior two deletion discussions is that, on its own, the subject's status is just a controversial twitter user. MiniMayor98 ( talk ) 15:34, 22 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:SNG do not override WP:GNG , and subject-specific notability guidelines are not requirements if the general one is satisfied. Very explictly, Wikipedia:Notability (people) links to GNG and restates it, saying People who meet the basic criteria may be considered notable without meeting the additional criteria below. , and later A person who does not meet these additional criteria may still be notable under Wikipedia:Notability . (emphasis not mine) Chaotıċ Enby ( talk · contribs ) 16:19, 22 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Can you name which Wikipedia policy says calling a spade a spade is somehow not neutral?

On its own, not sufficiently notable as either a cultural force or a webcomic. Candent shlimazel ( talk ) 21:12, 22 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If the subject is such a small part of it, why is there significant coverage of the webcomic? — Alalch E. 22:31, 22 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] At present the total article size is 17,220 bytes in size and the section regarding the alleged revelation of their identity is 7,019 bytes in size. Therefore your statement that "[a]lmost all the article content is about the author's doxxing" is plainly incorrect. Tar nis hed Path talk 01:05, 23 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If we want text size alone (no references, templates, etc., just the amount of text content that shows up), that's 4934 bytes and 1889 bytes respectively, so still very far from "almost all". Chaotıċ Enby ( talk · contribs ) 01:09, 23 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] In any case, not even a good argument for deletion regardless of whether it was even close. Tar nis hed Path talk 02:00, 23 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If we're measuring the text in words and not bytes, like humans who read Wikipedia , doxxing content is 365/779 words, or 46.9%. Not half, but close. Getting doxxed and clowned on by reddit and being a small and relatively uninfluential part of a broad phenomenon – there: that's the whole article – does not make a subject notable. Candent shlimazel ( talk ) 11:39, 25 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Agree with @ Candent shlimazel , as noted in the nom the previous 2 deletion requests could not find notability for an article, and the only update since was a twitter controversy. GoggleGoose ( talk ) 05:15, 25 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I can't quite come to an opinion on deletion or not but Stonetoss is not just "a small part" of alt-right meme culture, he's almost certainly the best known alt-right comic creator nowadays.

There are plenty of good sources here. The naming controversy is the largest single aspect getting coverage but this is far from being BLP1E. -- DanielRigal ( talk ) 01:17, 23 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] This is just to add that I also oppose any split or rename. There is no distinct second topic here. The comic, its author and his controversies are all aspects of a single topic which is called "StoneToss" and which is the subject of this article. DanielRigal ( talk ) 15:36, 24 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep I am not seeing any particular evidence to challenge the notability of the subject. Dympies ( talk ) 03:05, 23 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - There are enough independent, reliable sources. Their coverage of him as a topic is holistic (the comics, ideology, online influence, previous comics, identity), not in saccade or in relation only to one specific event (re: BLP1E or sporadic coverage concerns). The RS concerns are misstated ("political outlets" is not a reliability categorisation), and so are the BLP concerns (subject denials of labels like "neo-nazi" are not given consideration when deciding neutrality). More subjectively and less policy-based: his cultural "influence" is sustained (duration) and wide enough (leftist attempts to reclaim, and use by Stonetoss of numerous "gateway/radicalization pipeline" memes, like the Bitcoin one, that look innocuous and get widely shared by normies) that having an article seems appropriate. DFlhb ( talk ) 04:40, 23 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Well said. In fact, with reference to the reliability of "political outlets" I would generally treat the SPLC, for example, as more reliable and a greater indicator of notability than general media when addressing notable far-right figures. Simonm223 ( talk ) 14:19, 23 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Oppose . Statements in your comment are simply incorrect. You state, "subject denials of labels like "neo-nazi" are not given consideration when deciding neutrality" is false. Such a denial, particularly when they appear in secondary sources as noted in the nom, are permissible per WP:BLPSELFPUB and WP:BLPSPS . This is in addition to the fact that "nazi" is considered a "word to watch" per MOS:LABEL (the WP:BLP concern you glossed over). The WP:RS issue also goes beyond simply "misstated" political outlets (neither source was rated by WP:RSP , by the way) . While biased sources are permitted with caution per WP:PARTISAN , they are just one of the issues listed by the nom. It also includes sources that were deemed insufficiently WP:RS in the prior 2 deletion discussions. Again, as now and in the prior deletions, coverage of the subject focuses on drama occurring on social media. GoggleGoose ( talk ) 08:17, 25 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ GoggleGoose , not being rated on WP:RSP is not a statement against a source. To imply that it is displays a fundamental lack of understanding with how WP:RSP and WP:RS/N operate. Tar nis hed Path talk 08:38, 25 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I didn't mention it as a statement against a source. I mentioned it to clarify I wasn't doubting a source that might already exist on WP:RSP . GoggleGoose ( talk ) 09:08, 25 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per DFlhb.

Each episode is longer, around 21 minutes, which means more time to feature Furze's thought process surrounding his builds. Furze also works with a crew of builders, which ends up shaping each build in a different way and increasing the scale his absurd machines can grow to. ... While this show is great fun with excellent pacing, it might leave something to be desired for fans of DIY builds. While there's lots of focus on planning and delivering the builds, the actual build process happens mostly behind the scenes.

I'm not the combative type of nominator because I don't have to look at the article ever again, so I will merely submit a counterpoint: Three of those newspaper articles are actually brief album reviews that have little to no biographical info on the band (which should be the point of the band article here), and mostly admit to noticing the album because it was on Rob Zombie's label. That may run afoul of WP:NOTINHERITED . The fourth newspaper (Orange County) only mentions this band briefly in a general article about their genre. Meanwhile, I submit that the SpongeBob placement runs afoul of WP:ONEVENT . With this additional info, the band could be deemed just barely by the thinnest possible shave not non-notable, which could be stretched into "notable", but that's not particularly inspiring. --- DOOMSDAYER 520 ( TALK | CONTRIBS ) 14:30, 19 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Seems entirely combative.

Re only being album reviews, You can't really seperate coverage of the bands work from coverage of the band. Write an article about what the band has done. Re the Rob Zombie connection, yes the got noticed in part because of their record label (and that's why we have criteria like WP:BAND#5) but it is still coverage of them and their work. re notinherited, there has been no argument of the type they worked with Rob Zombie so they are notable, your dismissal is closer to a notinherited argument than anything else duffbeerforme ( talk ) 08:24, 20 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That's why I said "may" or "merely" multiple times in my comment, and conceded that I don't have to look at the article ever again.

(The CMJ article specifically credits Zombie's experience watching the band with his decision to set up the label.) So that's two mildly significant events that have occasioned independent coverage in reliable sources that yields a decent amount of content for an article (which, to be clear, is just a more straightforward way of saying that this appears to meet WP:GNG .) I don't feel like losing this article would be a terrible loss for the project but it seems like there's enough to work with here that deletion is not justified. I don't believe the WP:NOTINHERITED essay has much bearing here -- it seems directed to an argument like "there's lots of sigcov of Rob Zombie, therefore this band that he interacted with is also notable", which isn't what's going on here. -- Visviva ( talk ) 17:30, 25 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

Nigerian Chrislam: Skynxnex ( talk ) 02:00, 18 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . If 'embarrassing the subject' was legitimate grounds for deleting articles, we'd have a great many fewer.

Batons (suit): They should be merged if they have anything new.

Dicklyon ( talk ) 06:17, 13 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] This copied-and-pasted rationale is visibly faulty. Batons (suit) is visibly not a duplicate of Suit of wands . Batons (suit) / Suit of batons is (it says) about playing cards and Suit of wands is (it says) about Tarot cards. Uncle G ( talk ) 09:26, 13 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep but do not merge . These are two distinct topics. Although occultists based their suits on those of the Italian pattern of playing cards, they broke away over 200 years ago to produce their own packs purely for cartomantic purposes. So Batons (suit) is specifically about the playing cards, whereas the one on the suit of wands is purely about cartomantic cards. They have different designs and uses with almost no crossover. The same is true of cups and goblets, coins and pentacles, etc. We have been slowly untangling the mess caused by combining them, but there is more to do. I agree the names need sorting out and perhaps they could be named Foo (suit) or we could make it clear by calling them e.g. Foo (playing card suit) and Foo (cartomantic suit). HTH.

Such roads are "typically notable" but I'm not seeing GNG, only mentions and primary sources. It is worth noting that almost the entirety of Category:International E-road network is stubs - do we need to have some wider review, here? casualdejekyll 21:34, 9 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Surely you cannot be serious about the last part. For example, European route E75 exists in 37 language Wikipedias. Are we the English Wikipedia so arrogant that we think we should delete an article that 37 other Wikipedias have? Rs chen 7754 00:02, 10 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Why should I care how many WIkipedias it's in - the English Wikipedia is the English Wikipedia.

International road networks (such as the International E-road network), Interstate, national, state and provincial highways are typically notable (my emphasis).

Actualcpscm ( talk ) 21:41, 9 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That is clearly not the intent of the sentence.

However, if this is the only other source that can be found, it implies to me that this proposal was short lived and fizzled, as the portion of it I read (via Google Translate of course) sounded like nobody was enthusiastic about it. Dave ( talk ) 00:41, 10 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Well, as you imply, there sure are reasons it never got off the ground.

Liliana UwU ( talk / contributions ) 01:50, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : GEOROAD doesn‘t indicate that planned roads are also notable. Given that this was never built, I think coverage would be much more limited than in the cases GEOROAD was intended to refer to, so I don’t think this is notable under that guideline.

Reywas92 Talk 13:30, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep International E-roads are notable per WP:GEOROAD . Roads are notable even if they were never built and gotten past the planning stage since there was at least a proposal for a road to exist, and usually there are interesting reasons why a road never got built. Unless this is a hoax, which does not appear to be the case, then this should have an article. Dough 4872 16:30, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Please don't make things up. There is no precedent whatsoever that a nonexistent highway is automatically notable – significant coverage be damned – merely because a number has been assigned were it to be built. International e-roads might be notable, but this is not a road . There must be better sources to establish notability. Reywas92 Talk 17:11, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Genuinely not sure. Looking at other pages, we could create a start-class article for this, but only using sources from the EU, which may not be secondary, and even then it's not much of an article. I think deleting this would make the encyclopedia worse, but it also fails WP:GNG , and WP:GEOROAD doesn't provide clear guidance. SportingFlyer T · C 21:00, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note also different languages have different sources and the Dutch language version even includes a bit about ghost bridges which were constructed and then deconstructed (and the ghost bridges have their own article too!)

SportingFlyer T · C 21:04, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The more recent delete comments are based on the idea that this road was never built. I'm. . not actually sure that that's true? It appears on File:International E Road Network green.png , for some reason. Clearly, it wasn't built as originally intended. I think it might be the otherwise inexplicable disconnected segment of A11 from Bruges to Westkapelle, Belgium , which doesn't otherwise appear to have anything to do with the rest of the highway. . or any other highway, for that matter. casualdejekyll 21:29, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] FWIW, it doesn‘t appear on Google Maps, nor Apple Maps, nor satellite imagery. What piece of highway are you referring to? The A11 from Bruges to Westkapelle looks relatively normal to me. Actualcpscm scrutinize , talk 21:41, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It wasn't built, it was a cancelled freeway dating back from 1977 according to the Dutch article. Stub ramps were built over the railroad tracks, that was the extent of it. Cancelled freeways can indeed be notable as well, so whether it was built shouldn't determine the outcome. SportingFlyer T · C 21:48, 17 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I started a discussion about this over at the talk page of WP:GEOROAD. I think there is some agreement that unbuilt roads need to meet GNG, or at least are not automatically notable the way a comparable road that was completed is. This is really a question of how we read GEOROAD, so that discussion may be helpful for this AfD. Actualcpscm scrutinize , talk 06:39, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] At the very least there should be a redirect to list of unbuilt European motorways - if this would be the only item in the list I think it's fine keeping it as a stand-alone page. It's very minor information but I don't want to lose it, especially considering it could be expanded. SportingFlyer T · C 20:00, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Or it can redirect to International_E-road_network#B_Class_roads where it is listed as "road never built". Reywas92 Talk 20:27, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Google Maps doesn't show E numbers at all in Belgium, and that's the only mapping service I checked. I'm generally unsure - that was just a guess. Note how I haven't ! voted any which way, because I really have no clue. casualdejekyll 20:03, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I think if we have no clue (because there seems to be no verifiable info on this whatsoever), that supports a deletion more than anything else. Actualcpscm scrutinize , talk 20:31, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That's absolutely wrong that there's no verifiable information on this. There's available sources in the Catalan wiki including potentially [19] (the other two don't mention the road, not sure if this one does but the Catalan wiki translates to that the works are available there) and in two Dutch wiki pages, and continues to appear on maps for some reason. Also considering this was cancelled in 1977 there may be more information in historical newspapers, and nobody has undertaken that search yet. SportingFlyer T · C 21:19, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] What I meant was that we haven‘t actually identified verifiable information beyond „It exists. “ in the discussion. Re-reading my comment, it’s clear that this was not expressed well. My bad! Actualcpscm scrutinize , talk 21:39, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That's also not true. If you search for the right road, there's plenty on the cancellation for a stub, as per my previous comment. The problem is the information's potentially duplicative, as the E-routes combine a number of local routes, and this E-route would have been potentially concurrent with a single stretch of road. SportingFlyer T · C 21:53, 20 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] An additional problem may be we might be looking for the wrong thing. The E404 was going to be attached as a European number to a motorway which was unbuilt as part of either the A17, A301, or A11 per several different sources: [20] [21] for the A11 extension, and then the A17/A301 through some Dutch wiki-sleuthing and List of motorways in Belgium . So this really should be concurrent with either the A11 article or more likely the A301 article.

Jack Teixeira: This is the suspect in the 2023 Pentagon document leaks , from which his notability entirely derives.

Beccaynr ( talk ) 03:22, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] BLPCRIME stipulates that a BLP subject cannot be asserted in the article as having committed a crime before being convicted by a court. That does not remotely enjoin us, as editors, from coming to a consensus that a subject had a documented role in an event.

Ravenswing 07:25, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] BLPCRIME does not imply no connection, and BLP1E#3 discusses either a substantial or well-documented role. From my view, we are currently limited by BLPCRIME and other parts of BLP policy, such as the prohibition on sensationalism and BLPGOSSIP, from showing a 'substantial or well-documented' role. After material is pruned from the article to comply with BLP policy, what appears to remain is a pseudobiography with an undue focus on the event, which supports a merge per WP:BLP1E #2.

Given their potential impact on biography subjects' lives, biographies must be fair to their subjects at all times , so revisiting this article after the criminal court process concludes does not appear supported. What appears to be fair to the subject at this time is to include relevant and WP:BLP policy-compliant content in the 2023 Pentagon document leaks article, and as noted in the AfD nomination, later consider a split per WP:SS as needed. Beccaynr ( talk ) 02:06, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Unsure . I would say it is a case of WP:BLP1E , he is only notable for the leaks. (i normally don't read the "Wikipedia:____" pages regarding biographies as i don't usually work on them). At the same time, I would probably vouch to merge this page, albeit reduced to a few sections or so, due to the notability of the leaks. However I would also keep it because of the wide media coverage the trial might have, a similar reason to Nicola Bulley 's case because of the media coverage regarding her disappearance. Otherwise I'm unsure. e ( talk ) 16:26, 14 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Alright, you know what? Since a lot of people (80-90% of voters) are vouching to keep this article I might just as well join in the crowd and vote to Keep this article. Since the leaks began, he has made it into nearly every major media outlet and thus has a lot of media attention due to the severity of the leaks. e ( talk ) 18:06, 21 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I think the keeps are closer to 60% right now, not 80-90%. Don't forget, draftify/merge/redirect affect the discussion. Also your !vote may be downweighted or ignored by the closer if you don't provide an argument stronger than WP:MAJORITY . Arguments should be grounded in Wikipedia policy. Hope this helps. – Novem Linguae ( talk ) 04:04, 22 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Strong keep. Agree fully with potential "BLP nightmare" concerns, and fully support the pushback against editor statements here that presume guilt, such as that of @ Juneau Mike . The former, and manifestations in-article of the latter, can be addressed by careful editing (ensuring termes like "accused" and "alleged" are used throughout). But it is simply a matter of fact that, in the modern era, guilty or not, an individual accused of such a high-profile crime, and taken into custody in such a public and dramatic fashion—they become notable, and remain notable, even if eventually absolved. As a point of comparison, see the history of the article on Richard Jewell ; as long as this individual has to be in the public spotlight, WP does a potential service, in fully applying its policies and guidelines, in the presentation of the best independent, verifiable, source-derived information on the title subject. Absent that, the web-browsing public, at best, only has access to individual reports (and so will often lack the breadth and scope that an encyclopedic presentation can provide). And at worst, they are subject to the whims of recommendation engines and click-baiting/biasing practices that do not necessarily elevate the most reliable reporting in general search results. No, there is a service to be provided here, and it can be done without violating WP standards.

Whereas 2023 Pentagon document leaks will focus on the content of the information and its foreign policy implications, this article highlights the unique political motivations of this suspect amid significant news coverage of right-wing extremism in the military presenting a national security risk.

He has already been compared to Snowden in the political impact of his actions (even though the way information was leaked here was different). He will remain notable on his own whether he is convicted or not. This, to me, is a completely misguided attempt to assign WP:RECENTISM and is not doing encyclopedia any good. We could be spending this time ensuring the quality of article is high, so that people who will inevitably be searching his name online get the most reliable information.

Per WP:BLP1E and WP:BLPCRIME , I don't believe there are currently grounds to establish a standalone article for this person.

While Teixeira has been charged in relation to the leaks, in the absence of a conviction it's not Wikipedia's place to state that he was responsible for them. Thus, it's not conclusively established whether Teixeira had any role in the event, let alone a substantial or well-documented one. It's plausible that he will ultimately become notable even if he is ruled to be uninvolved - your example of Richard Jewell demonstrates how even inaccurate allegations can become notable if they're sufficiently prominent - but, again, WP:CRYSTAL advises us not to write articles based on presumed future notability.

Juneau Mike ( talk ) 18:56, 14 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep -- This individual was arrested by a large military contingent including helicopters, armored vehicles, and manned by heavily armed soldiers with full military gear. It makes sense to conclude from this that the United States military considers this individual to be an extreme threat that must be intercepted in a manner that sends a strong message. Such a massive show of force by the US military against a specific individual makes this person worthy of public documentation such as a Wikipedia page summarizing important known facts. There should be a distinction between this individual and the larger issue of the 2023 Pentagon document leaks which is an issue touching on all aspects of production and control of the documents in question.

Neutrality talk 22:40, 14 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You might have a point if that is what it says. But, unsurprisingly because it would render moot the entire BLP1E policy, that is not what it says. What it says if that person otherwise remains, or is likely to remain, a low-profile individual . Otherwise remains , meaning outside of this event, that we already have an article on, is the person expected to have some profile. nableezy - 22:50, 14 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Not a single event situation. The subject of the article is accused of disclosing classified documents over a series of months. And there are multiple events here: (1) the alleged conduct; (2) the investigation; (3) the indictment; (4) the arraignment; (5) whatever happens next. Each event generates global press coverage, expert analysis, etc. In any case, "1E" is a guideline ("generally avoid"), not Holy Writ. The subject is at the center of a globally significant maelstrom involving multiple overlapping events (international affairs, national security, a high-profile criminal prosecution, congressional/DoJ/DoD investigations, etc.) Neutrality talk 01:38, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You seriously dont see a problem on an article on Wikipedia about a 21 year old in which nothing but allegations and accusations are included? And since the subject is presumed innocent of disclosing classified documents over a series of months , that rationale simply does not stand scrutiny. The "event" here is the WP:NEVENT subject, that is 2023 Pentagon document leaks . nableezy - 01:43, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Your argument seems to boil down to "a previously obscure person is per se not notable unless they have been criminally convicted." That is not, and never has been, policy on the English Wikipedia. The article on Dzhokhar Tsarnaev , for example, was created shortly after his arrest. The subject's age also has little (if any) bearing on notability here. Whether a subject meets the general notability guideline depends on significant coverage (in reliable sources independent of the subject), not age. In any event, he is an adult. From a notability perceptive, it matters not whether he is 21 or 41 or 81. Neutrality talk 20:18, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] No, my argument is you cannot use playing a central role in a criminal act as evidence that they meet the criteria for an article until they are found guilty, because as we already established the person is presumed innocent until found guilty. So your argument that they played a central role in any of the supposed multiple events cannot stand because we cannot assume he played a central role in it. Do you seriously not see a problem with an article on a living person with nothing but allegations and accusations? Do you think that could possibly be a NPOV biography of a living person? As far as your caricature of my argument, no, I am saying that BLP1E and NSUSTAINED provide for guidance beyond the GNG, and that "notability" for a living person is not the sole criteria for an article. In fact, for a person involved in a single event, it is not the controlling criteria for an article. That remains WP:BLP . nableezy - 03:28, 16 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - I'm not sure I understand any of the rationales not to keep; they are outdated, at any rate.

WP:BLP1E states that "If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain , a low-profile individual." Based on others who have leaked information at this scale -- Reality Winner comes to mind -- I find it highly unlikely that he will remain a low-profile individual. Condition #3 most likely is not met as well given the sheer international scope of the fallout. Gnomingstuff ( talk ) 23:40, 14 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment -- This also seems to be a place where WP:BLP1E and WP:NSUSTAINED set different thresholds, though one links to the other.

Gnomingstuff ( talk ) 00:00, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Changed to weak merge , after looking into BLP1E there is some fuzziness about where this three-criteria test came from and how literally it should be taken. Gnomingstuff ( talk ) 17:55, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge per WP:BLP1E . There may not be much to merge to 2023 Pentagon document leaks , because sensational coverage about Teixeira should generally be excluded per WP:NOT and WP:BLP policy, and I removed anonymously-attributed content per WP:BLPGOSSIP . Per WP:BLP1E #1, all of the coverage is in the context of this single event. Per WP:BLP1E #2, Teixeira does not appear to meet the criteria outlined for a high-profile person in the WP:LOWPROFILE essay, which includes, A low-profile individual is someone who has been covered in reliable sources without seeking such attention, often as part of their connection with a single event ; a merge is favored at this time to avoid giving undue weight to the event. And per WP:BLP1E #3, the role of this individual is "not well documented" because these are currently allegations.

I found Beccaynr's analysis of the 3 aspects of WP:BLP1E to be convincing. He was not a whistle blower like Snowden, Manning, etc., and I don't see him being turned into one.

He is not a public figure (and I don't think that's in dispute), so the article is plainly covered under these policies - since the subject does not appear to be notable for anything other than untested allegations against him, seems a clear delete to me.

Tollens ( talk ) 09:33, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] My general thinking right now is something along the lines of "Suppose that right this very moment, he is proven, without a doubt, to be completely innocent (because that's exactly what 'presume innocence' means).

Merge with 2023 Pentagon document leaks for now. Perhaps in the future, if the individual becomes a wider public figure (e.g., television appearances, book releases, documentaries, etc.), it would be useful for the subject to have an article similar to Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden . Multi7001 ( talk ) 02:22, 16 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That seems like arguing that Pele is not so notable, it's Pele's footballing that is.

CT55555 ( talk ) 03:30, 16 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] There is no rational way to compare low-profile civilians and high-profile entertainers with fan bases. Multi7001 ( talk ) 15:40, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] He is accused of being the leader of an online group with thirty members. If the accusations re true, it seems he tried to impress the members by showing off. (S ource ) Of course, I gave the obvious examples above to emphasize my point. His publicity seeking is much less effective. But it is possible to compare, rationally, actions that have similar characteristics, even if the outcomes are vastly different. Therefore, I am pushing back on the characterisation of him as "low profile". WP:LOWPROFILE doesn't help a lot with my argument, I think it was written for more traditional ways of seeking publicity, but still I quote: Low-profile: Does not use occupational or other position(s) for public projection of self-worth (above the level normally expected within the field in question and HIGH PROFILE ...May have produced publications...at least in part are designed (successfully or not) to self-promote and to attract favorable public attention. does mildly seem to support my stance. CT55555 ( talk ) 18:13, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Allegedly posting information and images to a Discord chat group, and/or being sensationalized as an alleged "leader" does not seem alleged as intended to "attract favorable public attention", although speculating on speculation seems to lead us nowhere encyclopedic. I think Multi7001's identification of clear examples of high-profile activity (e.g., television appearances, book releases, documentaries, etc.) is helpful to consider. From my view, it does not seem fair to a BLP subject to speculate on how they might be high-profile based on allegations of criminal conduct and further speculation on reliable sources that may exist in the future to support sensational and extraordinary claims about them. Beccaynr ( talk ) 19:12, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Some news on his alleged role just out in the past 2 hours. https://abcnews.go.com/US/discord-user-group-secret-documents-surfaced-details-members/story? id=98661438 I think the high/low profile thing is up for debate. But I don't think I've said anything "extraordinary". I think saying he is a key person in this event (even if he is falsely accused or not found guilty of a crime) is a reasonable conclusion. Consider this: who are the more significant people associated with the 2023 Pentagon document leaks ? I don't think there are any. From WP:BLP1E We generally should avoid having an article.... If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented . BLP1E's guidance to not also have this article is the crux of what we are debating here. All three criterion need to be met. You don't need to agree with me on the low/high profile thing, to refute this, you'd need to think he's low profile and also that he did not have a significant role in this event. CT55555 ( talk ) 19:39, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Unverified claims and speculation by the "internet user claiming to be a member of the small online community" have been discussed on the article talk page , and from my view, continue to not appear appropriate to include per applicable policies and therefore not appropriate to consider as support for a standalone article. I also don't agree that WP:BLP1E is necessarily the crux - we have a variety of core content policies to consider when trying to determine what seems best for the encyclopedia at this time. However, WP:BLP1E #3 says If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented , so the event can be significant (and have its own article), but our core content policies, including WP:BLP , WP:NPOV , and WP:CRYSTAL , seem to warn against establishing a 'substantial or well-documented role' based on sensationalism, speculation, and allegations. BLP policy appears to encourage us to consider whether this article gives undue weight to what we can write about the event, i.e. the documents leak, which includes Teixeira's alleged role, along with an individual identified in the criminal complaint as someone who "reposted that image elsewhere on the internet" (see e.g. WaPo , Apr. 14, 2023), and the related criminal justice process for which we currently only have speculation about how it may proceed. Beccaynr ( talk ) 20:57, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm reluctant to reply further in case I bludgeon, but the first sentence of the justification to delete in its entirety is " WP:BLP1E ." So that did seem like the crux of the argument to me. Regarding sensationalism, I assure you that my arguments are informed only by reading reliable sources, primarily WaPo, NYT, BBC and to a lesser extent CNN. Going to try to semi- WP:COAL it from here, I fear I'm already dominating the convo. Peace. CT55555 ( talk ) 21:09, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The nomination also states, "For the time being, he is best covered in a "suspect" subsection of the article about the leaks, which may then be split off per WP:SS if it becomes too large." And with regard to sensationalism, even respected media are not immune from producing WP:SENSATIONAL coverage. Beccaynr ( talk ) 21:27, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . WP:BLP1E needs all three criteria to me met. I have doubts that any of them are met. On Criterion 1, there are multiple events: alleged leaking, arrest, court appearance. The guidance is about events, not themes of events, not connected events. On Criterion 2, allegedly sharing classified information online to a group of people is not a low-profile act, it is a publicity-seeking act. WP:LOWKEY gives more details. And the examples are all about wide publicity in mainstream media, rather than an small online group. So this is the weakest part of my argument, and is up for debate, but that doesn't really matter if you accept my C1 and C3 assertions. On Criterion 3, his alleged role was significant in the events he is associated with. He is the main and primary participant in the events. To delete on the basis of WP:BLP1E would require all three of my assertions above to be false. I think the guidance in WP:BLP1E can only direct us towards keep. CT55555 ( talk ) 03:21, 16 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Like many keep ! voters, you are assuming the subject is guilty of a crime when that has not been confirmed. Your reading of BLP1E is also incorrect. #1 says If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event. All the coverage is in the context of the alleged document leak, which is what the event is; court cases stemming from it do not somehow have a different context. For #2, sharing info with a small group anonymously is obviously not high-profile; even if it was not anonymous, merely talking to people in a Discord server/image board is not high-profile either. And for #3, his role has not been established , that's the entire point of BLPCRIME. Saying "he is the main and primary participant" is a BLPVIO, full stop. JoelleJay ( talk ) 20:52, 16 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] There is a subtle but important difference between me saying he is involved (which reliable sources state) and saying if he did a crime. The New York Times has stated that he was an administrator of the group where the documents first appeared. That makes him unavoidably a key part of this. I also disagree about this being one event. Media noted him for being suspected of the leak. Then they noted him when he was arrested. Then they noted him again in court. Almost every notable person on the encyclopedia is notable for one theme of linked events. I think all of Neil Armstrong 's notability stemmed from one event. I have seen AFD discussions where editors delete biographies citing BLP1E with the explanation that if it had reached court, that would be a second event, so I think my view is logical and a way of analysing that is common at AFD. On point 2, indeed it's up for debate. I said it was the weakest part of my argument and I think you make a good point. I am now undecided on criterion 2. But I this his role has been established. It's just the criminality or lack thereof that is not established. If the justice system drops all charges tomorrow, I will still say he is notable. Notability is not temporary and it does not hinge on criminality. I think it is fair to say he is a participant in events the reliable sources have identified him as participating in, I have made no assertions about criminality and I think that distinction is important.

Jusdafax ( talk ) 08:56, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - clearly passes GNG and BIO per CT55555’s analysis; the alleged crime is international news, it has already had an international impact on the largest war in Europe since World War II, and is certain to have LASTING coverage. The BLP1E objections are absurd in this context, simply cherrypicking pieces from guidelines and ignoring the overall context. // Timothy :: talk 09:09, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - Passes our notability policy for BLP subjects. His notability will never go away given the transcendent importance of the leaks. Being known for one thing which is also covered as a topic on Wikipedia is not a justification for deleting.

WP:BLP1E concerns are understandable but reporting extends beyond simply the leaks and it is very likely that a trial will also provide more coverage - deleting at this point would be a WP:BURO exercise. It should be strongly emphasised to Sandstein and others that 1E has never, by itself, been a pure DELREASON - it is a reason to merge/redirect/rename and delete only when the content is all already at an already-existing article covering the event. In this case, where would the content fit in the leaks article except in an extensive subsection labelled "Jack Teixeira" that would practically be an article by itself? FOARP ( talk ) 07:52, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge Even if he's notable, per WP:NOPAGE a separate article from the leaks is not needed.

Bearian ( talk ) 15:10, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge all available information about him is either directly about his involvement in the leak, or it's background provided only in the context of articles about the leak. This is textbook WP:BLP1E . If there had been enough reliable sources from before April 2023 about other aspects of his life, or if in the future additional writing about him unrelated to the document leak materialized, we'd have enough for a stand-alone article. Given that we only have source material in the context of one event, that seems like clear WP:BLP1E stuff. Most of the material in this article related to the leak is already covered in that article, and any additional relevant background information can be added to the narrative of the article about the leak without too much hassle. -- Jayron 32 18:31, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Request for close Seven going on eight days of discussion.

Hubert Klyne Headley: No suitable WP:ATD . Boleyn ( talk ) 08:33, 16 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians and West Virginia . Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 09:25, 16 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I was able to find news coverage pretty easily. It's mostly local coverage, but it demonstrates that Headley's music was performed by notable orchestras and notable conductors. And some of it has been issued on a major label since his death. His California Suite seems to have been widely performed in the 1940's. So I think he meets the first criterion for notability by composers, and that's all that's needed for the article to survive AfD. I'll try to add some of the news coverage I found to document the various facts of his life and career. P Aculeius ( talk ) 17:50, 17 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . The Afd proposal quotes the WP:MUSICBIO , which redirects to Criteria for musicians and ensembles , but as the subject of this article is a composer, it seems to me that we should refer to WP:COMPOSER for the criteria. In this context, this composer fulfills at least one criterion, for instance : Has credit for writing (...) music for a notable composition. as he wrote several compositions that are of high personal and skilled levels and that are published or listed as interesting on their subjet (this is how I interpret notable ), and apparently one of the most notable one is the California Suite published by Naxos on the performance of Dmitry Yablonsky and that has several reviews on specialized websites for classical music, like Classics Today or Music Web International ; this suite is listed in this this article from a specialized site on music of Hong-Kong (!) as containing a notable mouvement about the Golden gate, which "provides an impressionist depiction of the sights and sounds of San Francisco". In this page of the Canadian Music Centre, we can see that such a public institution celebrated recently (2017) this composer, by playing other pieces (chamber music in this case). Moreover, a second criterion may be mentioned, Has been listed as a major influence or teacher of a composer, songwriter, or lyricist that meets the above criteria. , as it is mentioned on the netherlands version of wikipedia article for this composer that he was the teacher of Robert (Bob) Buckley , who apparently specialized on music for large scaled events like Olympic games, and arrangements for pop music artists like Brian Adams, and this student composer matches several criteria (despite he does not have a wiki page). The problem with this composer is that he was forgotten for some time (a few decades) and he just started to be rediscovered (the CMC Canada explains here how he was rediscovered in Canada), but this problem is very frequent for classical music composers and also happened to very important composers like Bach (completely forgotten after his death, until Mendelssohn played his music again almost one century later), or for a similar period of time than for Headley, to Mieczysław Weinberg . In conclusion, this article clearly needs improvements, but certainly not deletion. Galanga ( talk ) 21:08, 17 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : I spent most of the day gathering news articles about Headley, and incorporating their contents into the article. However, I was taking notes, and may have left out useful details. Some sources I had hoped would provide more information about concert performances either didn't, or weren't available (I wasn't able to determine which). I found a program, but wasn't sure how to cite it. There were also non-musical radio (and television?) appearances that I didn't cite, as I wasn't sure they were important enough to mention. I also know that Headley had a son, but not sure whether he had other children. I'm sure that the list of compositions could be more thorough and perhaps improved; I hesitated about where to place some things, and how best to cite them. Would be glad of any help in that regard. However, I think the article is now clearly sufficient to demonstrate notability and verifiability, and should easily survive AfD.

Ghosts (Pac-Man): Adhering to this user's request for discussion, I have opened an AfD to determine what should happen to this article. The article's current sourcing state is particularly weak, with many uncited statements and a weak Reception section. If additional sources can be found to justify a split, then it would help the article's case, but right now it's very weak and not quite getting there, in my view. Has one ever considered Magneton?

Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 ( talk ) 02:24, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect Per my previous AfD. While as usual I feel like a BLAR was unwarranted as there is no way in heck this is "uncontroversial", especially since it passed a previous AfD, I still feel precisely the same way about the article I did before. There is not much here to warrant a standalone character article. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 06:51, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep While being bold is all nice and well, the consensus of the last deletion discussion of keeping from 2020 is not so old as to be ignored. The nomination claims there to be many uncited statements , but actually there is only the lead, where references are not generally expected, and one more unreferenced part where still the primary source is present. So just taking the referenced part, we already have an article which is beyond the length of a stub, ergo this topic fulfills the requirements of notability WP:GNG / WP:WHYN . Additionally , while the BLAR claims that trying to find sources has proven fruitless , the previous deletion discussion lists three web articles with the ghosts as the main topic (+ the CNN video), only a fraction of one of which has been used in the article, as listed by (Oinkers42) and detailed by Darkknight2149 . Lastly, if the sources here were significant *to* Pac-Man, but not on their own , again as claimed in the BLAR, then why have no attempts been made to integrate at least some of them into Pac-Man as is suggested by Wikipedia:Deletion policy ? Now as the first deletion discussion was not that long ago, pinging the further participants in case they are still around and interested in the topic: @ Namcokid47 , Eddie891 , Jhenderson777 , Balle010 , TTN , Rtkat3 , Toughpigs , Captain Galaxy , Piotrus , Dream Focus , Shooterwalker , and Ret.Prof : . Daranios ( talk ) 11:22, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Source analysis Let's break this down: This Kotaku article is an examination of notes regarding the character AI...which pertains strictly to the scope of the original Pac-Man as a game element within Pac-Man. It's the equivalent of making an article for a video game gun because the gun is the strongest in that particular title. Business Insider's article is also regarding Pac-Man development info, though at least gives a bit more commentary on the ghosts separate of the source in terms of design. It doesn't however help to establish why they should be separate. This Game Informer article is weirdly more reception for Pac-Man than the Ghosts? It can be cited for reception but won't be the biggest amount of commentary, but it's also the strongest source for actual reception. And this information is mostly already cited in the article. the aforementioned CNN article which goes hand in hand with the Kotaku ref. Now these are just the sources brought up during the AfD, but one has to seriously consider what a source is saying. Additionally trying to hold up a 2020 AfD as a gold standard for a Keep when things have improved (including several Smash Bros. related character articles that had similarly weak reception) is a folly. Previously I made a comment that the Koopa Troopa article should have been kept because there was nowhere for that information to go. Here I contend the opposite: the worthwhile information is perfectly fine to merge into the Pac-Man game or series article, and what's here when that's considered is just too weak relying on lists, quips and WP:ITSPOPULAR . -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 11:41, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : Given the explanation of the sources above, we should still be ok for ! keep. 2020 was around when I started participating in AfD and the discussion seems to be about of the same quality as the ones now... Oaktree b ( talk ) 14:07, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] They've even done peer-reviewed articles about them: [67] , although some might be tongue-in-cheek, we could at least argue the social impact of the ghosts. clicking on the Gscholar link in the lead brings up several journal articles; it seems the "Pac Man ghosts" are used as an analogue for a variety of things being studied in several fields. Oaktree b ( talk ) 14:09, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per Oaktree and Kung Fu Man's source analysis. Conyo14 ( talk ) 16:32, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : The previous consensus still holds. Kung Fu Man's source analysis didn't mention the source that I added and mentioned in the AfD discussion -- Television Cartoon Shows: An Illustrated Encyclopedia, 1949-2003 (McFarland & Co, 2005), which discusses how the creators of the 1982 cartoon handled the problem of depicting the hero eating the ghosts. Toughpigs ( talk ) 17:29, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak Keep for now. I may come back to this later, but I feel like there is room for expansion with the sourcing this article has right now.

D r e a m Focus 20:52, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep Despite BLAR-ing it (and still feeling BLAR is a positive motion), I feel the found sources now do indicate some notability. I would however suggest to any editors currently not engaged in other projects to work the sources in, as "well it's on the AfD page!" doesn't really give a good indication especially four years later, and not in light of improving standards. -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 21:03, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The Destructoid reference was in the section you deleted.

[68] D r e a m Focus 21:12, 14 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] A better approach would probably be bullet points and using the Nihongo template to be honest, but that can be done when the dev section is rewritten. Tables in the middle of character articles unless you're doing a list tend to be pretty rough on the reader.

Rotterdam is the second largest city in the Netherlands and has a lot of notable restaurants, so this article can even be expanded including different qualitative sources. Coldbolt ( talk ) 18:46, 15 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per above. NOTGUIDE is more on excessive details or subjective listing regardless of notability (i.e. listing every restaurant). This is merely a list of restaurants deemed notable by their existing articles and that are in Rotterdam. It is not an indicator of guidance suggesting the best restaurants nor an elongated list of every single restaurant in Rotterdam, including non-notable ones, it is limited to deemed notable restaurants. All other similar list articles should ideally be considered together if using this reasoning, in light of similar past AfDs.

Brenna D'Amico: References are passing mentions of having acting roles, not signifiant coverage. Doesn't have multiple significant roles. Previous AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brenna D'Amico indicated TOOSOON and result was to move to draft space. This should be done for this version too.

Hey man im josh ( talk ) 18:06, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] This is an obvious delete – this is far worse than the earlier Draft:Brenna D'Amico that never went anywhere and was WP:G13 'ed. Subject does not pass WP:NACTOR nor WP:BASIC , and that is still true 3+ years later. -- IJBall ( contribs • talk ) 18:49, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : She played Jane, which seems like one of the main characters in Descendants (2015 film) , Descendants 2 , and Descendants 3 (see Descendants_(franchise) ) then that seems like a WP:NACTOR pass. What am I missing? CT55555 ( talk ) 19:12, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Not in the principal cast in any of those films per their articles. Not significant roles, just supporting roles. Geraldo Perez ( talk ) 19:16, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I see your point. I also notice her role was perceived as significant enough by who ever wrote the article for the franchise to list it. And yet they didn't link to her, so that utterly wasn't a promotional attempt by anyway. So it seems like the significance is borderline. Considering all the other roles she has had, how certain do you feel that she isn't meeting WP:NACTOR . To me it seems arguable either way, depending how significant we see her roles. CT55555 ( talk ) 19:38, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : She has star billing including poster credits on various new movies including The Never List , Night Night. These movies didn't even exist yet when the last AfC happened. Definitely feels like it passes WP:NACTOR at this point. Was the article a WP:STUB when created, yes, but with the additional refs from WP:RS now, it is clear it passes the actor notability and just needs a moment to flesh out, either in the article, or moved into draft. Raladic ( talk ) 19:45, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] She has to have a major role, the films must be themselves notable (a Tubi original almost certainly isn't that), and she still needs to have significant independent coverage herself, as per WP:BASIC . None of those conditions are met right now – none of the sources at the article currently get the subject past WP:BASIC . I still think this is "delete", but if someone wants to "draftify" it's not unreasonable. But she is not notable enough for an article right now . -- IJBall ( contribs • talk ) 21:38, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak Keep . I think her role in the works mentioned above are significant enough, and sufficient in number, for her to pass WP:NACTOR .

My main problem is that the Deadline source is listing almost every role. If she was notable enough, there would be sources stating the fact. If only one source is capable of listing her credits, then she isn't notable yet. Callmemirela 🍁 talk 13:53, 16 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Great point. And she certainly doesn't appear to get past the "passing mentions" guidance either. -- IJBall ( contribs • talk ) 14:25, 16 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I just spent some time doing the actual research and found a whole bunch of magazine coverage including a print magazine cover article in 2021 featuring her, so she definitely passes WP:SIGCOV based on the amount of featured articles and interviews, including a live TV interview on ABC 7 Chicago, and magazines from outside the US that I have now added to the article . It is also clearer now that in the two feature films " The Never List " and "Night Night" she had poster credit and main and leading roles, not just supporting roles and her upcoming roles in two announced movies, I believe it supports WP:NACTOR well beyond just her roles in the Descendants franchise. It was just that the article was nominated practically instantaneously after being put up (as a poorly sourced stub, that is). So per WP:BEFORE , the article could have been given a chance to develop using cleanup tags instead of immediate AfD nomination. Pinging @ Callmemirela @ Random person no 362478479 @ CT55555 to please reassess with the new sources in the article. Raladic ( talk ) 06:06, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I have changed my vote from draftify leaning very weak keep to weak keep alternatively draftify . The main reason why I did not go all the way to keep is that the sources you added are almost all interviews. Interviews are routinely discounted in deletion discussions, because they are not (fully) independent (see WP:INTERVIEWS ). I do not agree with this policy and think that the number of interviews demonstrates notability, alas it is not up to me. The second reason is that I am not convinced that the movies in which she has main roles are notable enough to confer notability on the actors involved. So while I believe that someone like D'Amico should qualify for Wikipedia, I am not entirely convinced that she does given current criteria. -- Random person no 362478479 ( talk ) 07:00, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm going to change my vote to draft instead of delete. Per Random person no 36247879, the sources are repeated. I feel as if this doesn't notability yet, especially if one of the sources to list her credits is an interview. For example, I google Jennifer Lawrence's credits, and I'll have platoon of sources from Variety, Deadline, People, Forbes, NY Times, and Vogue to name a few. Callmemirela 🍁 talk 01:18, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : Perhaps there wasn't enough coverage of her in 2018 for the first AFD, but there seems to be enough now to show the subject is notable. -- Milowent • has spoken 13:43, 21 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . Roles in Descendants movies and sufficient sources, as discussed above. -- Jaireeodell ( talk ) 13:52, 27 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] She is not a "lead" in the Descendants film series – her role was secondary. She is arguably a "lead" in Crushed , but that's a "Tubi original film" which is hardly a mainline "notable" role (IOW, it's the kind of TV movie that is going to be completely ignored in other media). When you take out passing mentions, teen gossip mags and interviews (which many feel, for better or worse, do not contribute to notability), you are left with a single profile in the Chicago Sun Times . I could see "draftify" as a vote here. But the subject does not credibly pass WP:NACTOR or WP:BASIC still. -- IJBall ( contribs • talk ) 18:07, 3 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment This discussion did not appear on any daily log page; I have listed it for the current day. -- Finngall talk 16:42, 30 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep She's in the tubi thing and the Descendants movies, seems like a decent enough case for GNG.

Even so, already on page, there are articles featured in Spectator Magazine , +972 magazine and Wafa , as well as scholarly articles with mentions in further reading (of at least a dozen scholarly mentions ). The scholarly mentions alone are ample indication of WP:GNG , and we already have good example of independent, secondary coverage. I've now also added the links to Nonviolence International and Mondoweiss coverage that were already present and available on the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor page - all in all there's a good amount of sourcing present. Iskandar323 ( talk ) 20:00, 7 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The Spectator source is a letter to the editor and contains only a passing mention, it's SPS and trivial N . The second +972 article is an interview about We Beyond the Fence, it doesn't have SIGCOV of WANN N . Nonviolence International is a partner with WANN N . The second Mondoweiss piece has 2 sentences introducing WANN, then the rest is repeating what WANN/its writers say, so is not independent N . I couldn't find a Wafa link.

Zero talk 06:38, 8 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Look, there are a dozen mentions in books and academic papers. That is quite unusual and for obvious reasons: this is a notable literacy programme that has been covered in secondary sources on literacy programmes. I can't access most of the books and papers, because they are behind paywall, but I'm guessing neither can you. Perhaps you should reserve judgment until someone turns up who can actually access those sources. Even if you dispute the notability, surely a redirect would be appropriate? Iskandar323 ( talk ) 06:57, 8 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The Haaretz article gives me a 403. I can access most academic sources. If you have any in particular you would like me to look at let me know.

Iskandar323 ( talk ) 11:41, 8 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm not sure dissertations can count towards notability. They are typically not peer-reviewed and are generally primary.

Iskandar323 ( talk ) 18:00, 9 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Sources that must be used with caution are generally not considered adequate for counting toward notability.

Iskandar323 ( talk ) 06:27, 9 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comments : A major problem I have, lacking any ostensible reason, is the article versus sources appear to be political smoke and mirrors. The article is titled: We Are Not Numbers , apparently about an organization doing supposedly good things, providing a vehicle allowing Palestinian youth to write "articles, poems, and personal essays about life in Gaza". A goal supposedly is to get "writers to focus on the everyday lives of people rather than the narratives of war and conflict ". A not-so-subtle point can be found in the sources. "Where Is Justice For the Children Who Drowned in the Mediterranean", "To try to save his neighbors, he had to demolish his own house", "The Jabaliya Massacre: Heaven Embraces Five Angels", "Living among the dead in Gaza", written by a young Palestinian man that says "he aspires to become “a voice for Palestine", and published in +972 Magazine. Read a little further towards the bottom, We are in an unprecedented and dangerous era in Israel-Palestine. The Israeli extreme right government has made its plans crystal clear. It wants carte blanche to shoot-to-kill Palestinians . Another source, "Deported: Israel's war against Palestine solidarity activists". How about "Israel bans right activist from entering Gaza", written by Pam Bailey, co-founder of the organization? Bailey is the international secretary of the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor and director of We Are Not Number. The Human Rights Monitor article, which has coverage on this organization , states they have "workshops to train students on several techniques to modify Wikipedia articles in both Arabic and English". Another source "Palestinians in Gaza are bringing their stories of siege to Israelis". If Wikipedia is still operating under the auspice of neutrality , one of the five fundamental principles, care should be taken to ensure organizations are not high-jacking certain areas. -- Otr500 ( talk ) 05:34, 9 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Otr500 : You seem to have an issue with the stories that are mere example of content being featured in outlets.

Iskandar323 ( talk ) 06:53, 9 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Iskandar323 My issue is two-fold. #1)- The items listed as references or sources, as you stated, "None of those sources were used to support factual statements about the organization". 2)- That is not only an issue with notability it is an issue I see as subversive literature. NPOV becomes a serious issue when an article is not balanced. This article should be about the organization not a tool for advancement of any cause of Pam Bailey or the Human Rights Monitor. I am not sure what is meant by "stories that are mere example of content being featured in outlets". I looked at one of the "sources" still in the article (Katz, Y) and see mention of a WhatsApp group and Border Gone. I can't tie the three together so the source has no importance to the article that I can see. I struggle with the thought that new writers are schooled on how to manipulate (modify) Wikipedia. I can see some of the content of this article being covered in Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor (as it is) but no evidence it deserves a stand-alone article . This is why I suggest a merge as an ATD . -- Otr500 ( talk ) 17:27, 9 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Otr500 : I'm sorry, but if you cannot see the references to the subject in Katz, that simply means you are just skimming the abstract but haven't actually clicked on the link to the dissertation itself. There are five pages on the subject there. On the subject of balance, you keep making claims about this, but you have not actually produced any sources countering statements on the page to suggest that there are balance issues. Balance issues aren't something that you can simply suppose: you need to demonstrate them. The stories I mentioned were the news outlets that hosted We Are Not Numbers content. You complained about those links, so I obligingly removed them here . It would be polite if you could acknowledge this and the that this particular issue which you raised has been resolved.

I thought about changing to "Weak keep", however, Iskandar323 , an Admin has echoed my concerns about NPOV mentioning the tone of the article so apparently I am not as far off as you seem to think. NPOV is one of Wikipedia's fundamental principles that includes Advocacy , and that is what I see. It would not matter if "the young writers were Ukrainian or from the Sudan or from another area of conflict". I don't have a pony in the race. I rarely edit any contentious topics and when I do it is usually minor edits. The subject is a split from Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor , so has coverage on Wikipedia, and I do not see the justification for a stand-alone article, especially just to be apolitical, since it is less neutral than the parent article with questionable sources. Some of the advocacy can be seen in the sourcing. The Middle East Eye source states, "Deported: Israel's war against Palestine solidarity activists". The author, Pam Bailey, is the person claiming to have been banned. Another: "Israel bans right activist from entering Gaza". These are sources that may be acceptable in the parent article but what is the need for being in an article about an organization and young writers? I consider that the Katz "Thesis" is just that and does not advance notability. The Mondoweiss source is a blog. The article would likely be considered among the Contentious topics . I changed the link to Ben Norton (who does not have an article) to reflect the redirect to "The Grayzone" which is considered a "far-left news website and blog". At any rate, it does indicate what type of "training" young writers are getting direction from when they are schooled on how to modify Wikipedia. I may end up in the minority but I guess that is alright now and again. -- Otr500 ( talk ) 07:56, 18 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:NPOV has nothing to do with notability. If you think it is POV, and have sources that prove it by contradicting the information already on the page, you should balance the material by adding those sources. What you should be considering here is the best anchoring sources, not the insufficiencies that you find in just a few of them. There is now a book source, a full length Haaretz article, a PhD dissertation, a +972 magazine article and an Aljazeera article. That's a pretty broad range of coverage without even getting on to the scholarly mentions, which only haven't been expounded because I lack access. NB: Incidentally, while it's irrelevant, this article was in no way split from Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor ; it was actually created before it, in 2016, while the latter was only created in 2019.

The Lunar Society one is a circular reference to this Wikipedia article. The Public Sculpture of Birmingham book was published in 1998, yet the article states the sculpture wasn't unveiled until 1999. No page number has been placed in the citation. The reference seems to me 'suspect'. I've gone through the book and found nothing on these stones. In fact, the Introduction to the book begins with "Birmingham in 1996 has over 370 works of sculpture in the public domain" and adds that "the pieces date from 1709 to 1996", suggesting the material included only went up to 1996. I've checked for later editions of the book but haven't come across any. Until appropriate sourcing is added to the article or put up for consideration in this AfD, the policy based ground for deletion is that the article doesn't pass any notability guideline.

I agree that I don't find a mention of them in Public Sculpture of Birmingham (at least the version available via Internet Archive). There is by the same author a Birmingham Sculpture Trails book (2008), which may discuss them, but I can't locate a copy to review. I did turn up two local newsclippings [23] [24] from when sculptures were unveiled. There were other 2011/2012 stories about development in the area that mention the stones in passing. Beyond that, I do see mention of them in the context of the people memorialized on them (for example, in Secret Black Country , no page numbers, but with a photo of the Keir stone), they're included in local heritage tours , and they have been mentioned by the Birmingham Conservation Trust .

Libreboot: I'm not sure which criteria to apply, because the core article topic is not really clear or agreed upon - is it a software, a hardware, a company, a movement, within a movement? There are a few more or less reliable sources, but it is difficult to pull together a coherent article without, in essence, a lot of WP:OR . This becomes apparent, to me at least, in the most recent Talk:Libreboot discussions. If you eliminate the less reliable sources (as identified by another editor), it is even more difficult. The few better sources consistently talk about Respects Your Freedom certifications as supported by the Free Software Foundation , in context of reviews of computer hardware sold by "several international companies". Some editors want to twist this into a billboard for one particular vendor of hardware and continue making the article a WP:SPAMPAGE , i.e. "Advertisements masquerading as articles", as it was for years. I conclude it is best to delete and redirect. Reasonable targets include, in alphabetical order: Free_Software_Foundation , GNU , GNU_Project , and List_of_GNU_packages . Why there? As I understand it, not really based on great sources, an incarnation of "Libreboot" was once supported and within the FSF/GNU umbrella, as a GNU project. Then it wasn't. Maybe since 2016 or 2017, but it's not clear when it was in and when it was out, or how many times. There may have been a number of years, perhaps 5'ish, without software releases. One company the article "advertised as an article" for years may have been near bankruptcy and not doing business for some time. Now, as of around March 2023 there is a new "Libreboot" project within the FSF/GNU support umbrella. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 05:54, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Computing and Software . Yae4 ( talk ) 05:54, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep and revert the article to its state from this version . I do not consider that to be an WP:SPAMPAGE , it's a just a stub stating a few facts in WP:NPOV language. I have changed quite a few articles that needed translation from promotional to Wikipedia language, this article is not one of those. I'd be fine with adding some sentence about the Libreboot.at project. PhotographyEdits ( talk ) 08:16, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] 3 Hackaday cites and a WP:TECHCRUNCH , 3 Linux Journal detailed flashing HowTo's and 4 mailing list posts or similar.

Primary mailinglist sources are fine for verification of trivial things like the latest released version or the full name of the project. I agree about Hackaday, I missed that. PhotographyEdits ( talk ) 09:07, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It's laughable using Vaughan-Nichols ZDNet source, which is all about The Free Software Foundation, "Libiquity's Tarinux X200", Respects Your Freedom, "FSF-endorsed Trisquel GNU/Linux", quotes from Joshua Gay (FSF) and Patrick McDermott (Libiquity), with only passing mention of Libreboot, to cherry pick the statement: "On some devices, Libreboot developers have reverse engineered the firmware from Intel and created a utility to create a free firmware that meets the specifications from Intel." Why do you want a billboard for Libreboot.ORG so badly you would so obviously mis-use this source? This is not applying WP:DUE or WP:NPOV , or basic honesty, frankly. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 09:29, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Huh? Yes, that reference has a broader scope indeed. But the subject of this article is "Libreboot", so it is fine to use references that also include information about different things. If there would be an article about Libiquity, then we could use more information from the ZDNet article I suppose. PhotographyEdits ( talk ) 09:48, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It seems you agree the Libreboot content is only passing mention, which means the source does not contribute to WP:NOTABILITY . -- Yae4 ( talk ) 09:56, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yes, I agree for that ZDNet article, but not for other articles. I still think it meets the WP:GNG , albeit not by a large margin. That's also why I think a stub is the most appropriate lenght for this article. PhotographyEdits ( talk ) 10:57, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] James Gray LinuxJournal.com looks like a copy of a brief product announcement, not significant coverage of Libreboot, and no link to or mention of "Libreboot.org". Bärwaldt linux-magazine.com has coverage of a lot of things, including Rowe the person, Purism_(company) , "Several small international companies ... around free BIOS implementations," the "Respects Your Freedom" program, the Free Software Foundation. Whose link is listed first among 7 at the conclusion? FSF. Libreboot.ORG is 3rd of 7. You used it to say "Libreboot is established as a distribution of coreboot, but with some proprietary binary blobs removed from coreboot." Cherry picking again. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 11:46, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - and make libreboot.org the main link, with libreboot.at as a footnode. For reasoning, see discussions on the talk page. Basically, other editors here have asserted that since all the cited sources reference libreboot.org, not libreboot.at, then the article is primary about Libreboot as hosted on libreboot.org. I should note that there is currently a report against Yae4 about the nature of his editing on the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Username_Yae4_engaging_in_persistent_disruptive_editing_of_the_Libreboot_article As of this time, the Wikipedia admins have not yet responded, but the assertion there is that Yae4 is acting out of bias, in bad faith and that he has attempted to hijack the Libreboot article. The timing of this AfD is curious since the talk page seems to now weigh in favour of libreboot.org, especially since the article now seems to be much better sourced than it was before (and many of those sources were added by Yae4 himself!) Libreleah ( talk ) 09:30, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Libreleah has declared COI for Libreboot.ORG, and after making efforts to appear otherwise in the last day or so, after 5 years inactive, still has few or no edits outside this topic. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 09:41, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yes, and I've engaged trying to be as neutral as possible, on the project talk page. Regardless of my connection, my arguments against your disruptive and seemingly equally biased edits are valid. It's no coincidence that as soon as the talk page starts weighing in favour of libreboot.org again, as per the wishes of the other editors, you create a new AfD. The timing is too perfect, so it can't be a coincidence; you are losing the argument, and acting out of desperation. Contrary to your assertion, I have every intention of continuing my activity on wikipedia editing other articles, once this Libreboot business is finished. For example I improved Peter Assmann yesterday by translating some text from the German page which is better sourced. Libreleah ( talk ) 09:46, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] She's sugessting changes on the talk page, instead of trying to edit the article directly. So she's following the COI policies.

Point being its all an opinion, you may think theres no merit to what shes saying when she thinks she has a fair point. We have to be respectful of all viewpoints. Regarding no WP:EDITREQ. She doesn't have all the ropes yet as a new editor, so i think we can give her some leeway. Besides, she didn't need to do an EDITREQ because she didn't want to edit the article. Why didn't you suggest this to her in your first reply? Note that the article as it was before was agreed upon by everyone before you changed it. WP:COI and Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide say nothing about COI people voting in AfDs. But even if you don't count her vote, the consensus here and on the talk page is to still use libreboot.org. Rlink2 ( talk ) 12:33, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It was "frivolous accusations" not "disruptive and incoherent". We'll see. Maybe we'll get some objective opinions from uninvolved editors. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 12:48, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Yae4 I would say the only editors that are truly involved is you and PhotographyEdits, since you two were editing the article for some time. Libreleah is also involved due to her connection. Me, Maddy, and DFhib only came after the inital accusations so we were all technically uninvolved. Rlink2 ( talk ) 12:53, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] PhotographyEdits has edited Libreboot for at least a couple years+/-? Me, a couple weeks+? Yes, the near coincident arrivals of new accounts all supporting re-activated Libreleah, after IPs were blocked, plus behavioral similarities. led me to suspect puppetry, meat or sock. Involved: See WP:INVOLVED for admins, and WP:NACINV for editors. Aren't those talking about involvement in discussions? No mention of whether an article has been edited. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 14:03, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] For accuracy, other than the passing mention in a book, "Embedded Firmware Solutions", and Carikli's presentation on abandoning Libreboot.ORG and starting Libreboot.AT, I don't think I found any other sources that hadn't already been in the article before, then were deleted during stubification to a billboard. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 09:52, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] As discussed by other editors in the talk page, the current sources (many of which you added yourself) are more than sufficient to support notability of libreboot at libreboot.org; indeed those some editors assert that libreboot.at has weak sourcing, because of most of the current sources refer to libreboot.org, not libreboot.at. Thus, this 2nd AfD is ludicrous. Libreleah ( talk ) 10:11, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I don't think I found any other sources that hadn't already been in the article before. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 11:13, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep and revert to previous version per PhotographyEdits. Rlink2 ( talk ) 11:46, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I would really appreciate seeing even a half-good explanation of why stubifying an article with poor sourcing is beneficial for Wikipedia or readers. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 14:05, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : this AfD seems to be a rather convoluted outcome of an ongoing content dispute on the article, rather than a genuine attempt to question the notability of the topic. jp × g 18:02, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per the previous AfD close for this topic 9 days ago. Reopening a new AfD for the topic just 9 days after the previous keep close is disruptive. Looking at the sources just within the article, there are multiple reliable sources cited like Linux Journal and LWN. I haven't assessed whether these are enough for GNG, but they certainly provide enough verifability that at the least a short summary of the topic could be merged to another article, such as coreboot or another appropriate merge target. Thus I think the closer of the first AfD was correct--outright deletion is unwarranted, but a merge to another article is a reasonable outcome. I'll also note that it is perfectly fine for a COI editor to provide recommendations at AfD. If they can provide evidence for a recommendation that that non-involved editors accept, that's good evidence toward an outcome. -- {{u| Mark viking }} { Talk } 18:42, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment (Nominator) @ JPxG and Mark viking : > Reopening a new AfD for the topic just 9 days after the previous keep close is disruptive. Really? _Fake_Surprise_Emoji. Lourdes an admin IIUC recently advised me in a similar context: "Lastly, why did you withdraw your AfD nomination of Elive which was on its way to be deleted? May I suggest take the article to AfD once more quoting this message of mine? And this time, I would request you to please not withdraw the nomination which was bound to be deleted." I agree with merging some of the material elsewhere. That seems implicit in my suggestion to redirect. It also seems implicit in other suggestions to stubify the article (with poor sources). No mention in a 2019 Open-source firmware review article: [98] The source was used by PhotographyEdits to support notability of a list of open-source firmware, including Libreboot. Other open-source firmware is covered. Libreboot is conspicuously absent. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 20:11, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yae, unless you're going to bring up something from WP:DELREASON , this is going to be a speedy keep from me, per WP:SK1 . I'm going to leave it to someone else to close this, but there is a material difference between a discussion for which people other than the nominator expressed an opinion in favour of deletion and one where nobody does. Alpha3031 ( t • c ) 08:48, 17 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep & revert to previous version, per PhotographyEdits. The later additions were almost entirely WP:COATRACK , and any good parts can be discussed individually before re-adding. If I was writing an article on apples, and used book sources that were about fruits in general, it should be obvious that it would be WP:COATRACK and a misuse of sources to spend half the article talking about these other fruits. Every source is clear that Libreboot is a software project; the rest is fluff. The premise behind this AfD is that (1) when the article reflected what secondary sources said, it was a WP:SPAMPAGE ; (2) now that it's a coatrack to off-topic commercial products, and promotes a fork that wasn't covered by any secondary sources, it is no longer a SPAMPAGE; (3) since preliminary consensus is turning against these dubious additions, the article should be deleted. These premises are absurd enough that they don't merit a counterargument, and bringing something to AfD due to (seemingly) losing a content dispute is disruptive.

The author of the last two was a columnist at the time of publication ( archive link ). I think for tech, "columnist" has a much lower connotation of opinionated bloviation, and a better mix of fact-to-opinion compared to politics or other subjects. To compare, I'd put other tech columnists like Walt Mossberg or David Pogue in a different league from all the typical silly op-ed writers. So, opinions may differ, but I'd count it towards GNG. edited 22:33, 17 June 2023 (UTC): wasn't sure how columnists usually get treated at AfD, so I looked around and found this smart 2013 DGG comment : his criteria are the degree of editorial control over the column, and the credibility of the columnist.

In case it is established that it is reliable, they would count towards the WP:GNG imho. Personally, I'd say Linux Journal is a reliable source for technical content like this. PhotographyEdits ( talk ) 11:54, 21 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hmm yeah, I'm unsure on Hackaday. The writers and editors seem to be amateurs, but there is some kind of editorial staff at least. It's also not the most controversial area or prone to disinformation. In terms of sigcov, both sources mostly document the process of installing libreboot. I'd say the second one is the stronger one for sigcov, since it addresses a "normal" installation rather than an intentionally hacky one, and it includes more general description of the firmware. -- Maddy from Celeste ( WAVEDASH ) 19:18, 22 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : Can anyone actually name 3 or 4 independent, reliable sources with significant coverage of libreboot.org , which an RfC proposes as the subject of the article, to support WP:GNG ? Thanks for the source assessment, but one FossForce source called "significant" coverage is not. [100] The source literally says: " this entire story is summed up by the above headline. Until we know more, that’s all we know. " Regardless, the assessment only claims one source supports WP:GNG. -- Yae4 ( talk ) 18:12, 21 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep The Kyle Rankin Linux Journal two-part story is reliable significant, and explicitly mentions libreboot.org, if that matters. There's multiple stories about Libreboot (seemingly the .org version?) in this Linux Voice issue: [101] . Here's a PC World issue talking about libreboot (again .org, I think) significantly in the context of the X200: [102] . With passing references (maybe more! I haven't read them all) in multiple other issues and magazines from that mid/late 2010s era. I don't see any reason to delete this article and my vague feeling is it should focus on on the version that's how referred to as the libreboot.org version with a section mentioning forks/etc, at this time.

Led Zeppelin : the stories behind every Led Zeppelin song . London : Carlton. p. 26. ISBN 978-1-84732-286-9 . Credited to Page and John Paul Jones, this gave Jones a chance to show off his abilities on the church organ, while Page made use of a Fender pedal steel guitar. Played on the band's early dates in Scandinavia, the song was later dropped from the show. Jones uses bass pedals on the organ to fill out the sound, until Plant begins to protest at the woeful lack of courtesy shown by the modern girl. "Lying, cheating, hurting, that's all you ever seem to do," he grumbles. But although she drives him insane, one day her time is gonna come and she'll find him gone. The pedal steel that Page uses is slightly out of tune, which adds to the strangely plaintive air that persists until Bonham's sternly bashing drums bring a sense of direction to the final chorus. Part of this song was sometimes used on the band's 'Whole Lotta Love' medley. Somach, Denny (2012). Get the Led out : how Led Zeppelin became the biggest band in the world . New York : Sterling. ISBN 978-1-4027-8941-0 . Only "Your Time Is Gonna Come" is not known to have been performed live during that period, probably because it requires an organ, an instrument to which John Paul Jones did not have access during concerts until later. Jason Bonham has said that the song's bright and cathedral-like organ prelude- -which he heard on a record player at his house as a child was one of his earliest memories, and made him curious about music before he finally understood that it was his father's profession. Here, Plant croons a vengeful lyric over a pastoral riff played mainly on acoustic guitar with occasional add-ins from Page on electric lap steel, an instrument he might have been fiddling with for the very first time. Page was, after all, a guy who'd joined the Yardbirds not as a guitarist but as a bassist- and he'd never played bass before, either! No portion of the lyrics to "Your Time Is Gonna Come" has been traced to any previous sources, but if Plant was the lyricist, the writing credits don't reflect it. Led Zeppelin : you shook me . Blitz Books. 2017. p. 26. ISBN 978-1-9997050-7-7 . Segues from Dazed And Confused with a keyboard sound that although used sparingly by John Paul Jones was to become very much a Led Zeppelin sound. Nice gentle guitar from Jimmy gives this song a lovely feel. Along with Black Mountain side this track gives a nice respite from some rather exciting and heavy tracks now the album is on CD. In the days of vinyl of course this was a gentle (ish) start to side two. Shadwick, Keith (2005). Led Zeppelin : the story of a band and their music : 1968-1980 . San Francisco : Backbeat Books. p. 52. ISBN 978-0-87930-871-1 . On today's CD versions it segues into the following track, 'Your Time Is Gonna Come', as it had from 'You Shook Me'. Considering Page's close involvement in all things Zeppelin up to the present day, one can only assume that this unbroken movement of songs is intended. Certainly the César Franck-chorale-like organ intro to 'Your Time' (played by Jones) is in the same key in which 'Dazed' concludes, so it may well have been the original intention, thwarted by the time limitations of vinyl at the time. When Jones makes the transition into the riff of Your Time Is Gonna Come', the tune's roots are laid bare. The verse's structure is very close to 'Hey Joe', as performed by Jimi Hendrix, down to the detail of the cadential guitar tag. Plant's vocal follows a different route to 'Hey Joe', although the lyrics have a similar message about women paid back for alleged wrongdoings to long-suffering lovers. The song, another Page composition, is undistinguished, with a hackneyed chorus that even Page's arranging skills can't mask. He uses pedal-steel guitar for the first time in a studio, but by his own later admission it is out of tune. The song does however give Plant the opportunity to deliver an entire song without having to resort to screeching, and he does well.

The Globo Esporte article is useful, but leans heavily on quotes with the subject and the secondary coverage is almost entirely focused on that one match. I'd need to see better sources (in depth, secondary coverage in reliable sources, not match reports and previews) and I'm skeptical that this footballer is well-known in Brazil. Jogurney ( talk ) 18:24, 4 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - You completely ignored the part that the player was champion in three different first-tier state leagues, all at professional level in Brazilian football pyramid. The 2002 game gave a lot of visibility, but the athlete's career spans 18 years. There are sources on the titles won, several on the 2002 match, as well as statistics on Soccerway and ogol.com, in a variety of ways. Svartner ( talk ) 20:23, 4 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Let's go through each of the references included in the article: Three (FdSP from 5/2013, 7S from 5/2015 and JA from 2/2020) are noting the 2002 Copa do Brasil round of 64 match where Goiano is just name-dropped for being in the squad and scoring the game-winner (not in-depth coverage); One (UOL from 2/2002) is an interview with Goiano about that 2002 match with a brief career update (mostly primary coverage, and not in-depth); Two (both GE from May 2013) are a match report (where his name is dropped as having been in the squad) and a post-match interview with Goiano about his club's '13 state championship (not in-depth or not secondary); One (ZC from 11/2023) is about his former manager (Paiva) and includes a name drop that he was in Paiva's state championship winning side (not in-depth/mostly not even about him); One (UD from 8/2014) is a match report where his name is mentioned in passing (not in-depth); One (GE from 11/2014) is a season preview which only indicates he is in the squad (not in-depth); One (BNA) is simply a note that he scored some goals in the '09 state championship (not in-depth); and One (GE from 5/2015) has a one paragraph career summary (not in-depth). So while, he has been in some sides that won state championships (mind you, these are not close to being high-profile championships like the Carioca or Paulista), there is no in-depth coverage of him as a footballer. The article fails WP:GNG . Jogurney ( talk ) 15:17, 5 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Each of the sources in question covers one of the topics involving the athlete. One part about the achievements, another about the 2002 game (which is historic), others about the final part of his career, with the second source providing more details about its origins (as the user @ Govvy rightly pointed out). The only gap that I was unable to resolve is regarding the beginning of the player's career in Portuguese football. About the state leagues not being Paulista or Carioca would make sense if it were the only relevant thing in the entire trajectory, but the sum of factors makes Goiano's career something relevant. Just look at other Brazilian players, most of whom have no achievements and/or no spells in relevant teams.Things add up. An athlete with titles in state leagues + protagonist of a historic match + long career by Brazilian football standards. And there is WP:SIGCOV in the Brazilian media as you yourself stated (GloboEsporte at various times, Folha de São Paulo, UOL Esporte, basically the main ones in the country). Svartner ( talk ) 15:47, 5 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I did not state that there is SIGCOV of him; I see none at all. It doesn't matter that a newspaper like FdSP has an article that mentions his name a couple of times; we would need an article that provides in-depth secondary coverage of his career. The very best source identified so far (from GE) dedicates a single paragraph to recapping his career thus far (as it does to every other squad member). That's simply not good enough for the GNG.

Hero Envy: There are at least two newspaper articles about this series, in the Leominster Champion and in the Telegram & Gazette , however, both are local sources ( Worcester County, Massachusetts ), and both articles are from August 2006. Hero Envy is also present in the book Internet Comedy Television Series, 1997-2015 , where about 130 words are dedicated to the summary of the plot/characters, and about 75 words of additional commentary (mainly about the spin-off). The article also cites Nerd Caliber, but that doesn't seem like an RS.

I believe that this satisfies that. The spinoff is also covered by this article, so I interpreted it as lumping them together more as a "franchise" article.Regarding the locality of the newspapers, I can't say much about the Leominster Champion , but Telegram & Gazette seems to be decently sized for the region and owned by the NYT at the time as opposed to a strictly regional operation.

Ceres, Washington: It's also a hill nearby. The area is known as Ceres Hill, so likely needs a move if not deleted. Original reasoning:Not a notable location. All of the sources mentioned are either trivial mentions or are insufficient for notability (GNIS; Jim Forte). Only reference 6 approaches reliability, and it plainly states that Ceres was just a road-rail crossing with a general store, and the post office was a "pigeon cabinet" in the corner of the store.

Nana Wanjau: Sources do not support notability under WP:GNG or WP:NBIO . Most references are WP:PRIMARYSOURCES and WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS or they fail verification. The only examples of WP:SIGCOV are problematic and unreliable. Mkazi (the website is inactive) was a lifestyle blog with no named editors or legitimate editorial process. The Parents Africa profile is really a WP:INTERVIEW , and it makes major errors (for example, stating that she left a highly-paid corporate job in a year when she would have been 20).

Can you provide some details on what the second Star source you cited says since there appears to be no online version? Thanks! The first one ( link here ) is a WP:INTERVIEW and thus would not qualify for notability. As for the Mkazi piece, it was a lifestyle blog with no named editors or legitimate editorial process and thus cannot be a reliable source for purposes of notability. Dclemens1971 ( talk ) 12:44, 5 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The second article is 1300 words on the charity founded by Wanjau. Also, I would argue that the first source I provided includes expansion of the conversation with Wanjau, and thus showing 'depth of preparation' that would be needed to establish notability as is quoted in the essay you linked. DaffodilOcean ( talk ) 13:26, 5 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] 1300 words on Wanjau or on her charity? Re: the Star interview, every other paragraph is a quote from Wanjau. There are no quotes from other interviewees, and she appears to be the sole source relied upon by the interviewer, which shows the opposite of "depth of preparation." Dclemens1971 ( talk ) 13:34, 5 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The article you cannot access is about her charity and biographical details on her.

When did I want to overturn any consensus? About what? (These are rhetorical questions, don't feel obliged to reply). I DO like the current consensus, yes; not sure where I said I did not, and the said consensus (to which you yourself provide the link) says The Hindu is (very) reliable and does not mention India Today. If you want to change that, feel free. As for the 2 references you removed, sure they're not enough to attest notability if that's all there is, but why remove them from the page ? I've asked this twice ( here and on the page ( edit summary ), but instead of explaining what precisely you thought was wrong with them and clarifying, you preferred another approach, which leads us to the last point. .... .As for me being "disruptive"/"edit war", if you have anything of the kind to say, this is not the forum to do so, especially when it's not based on anything specific except the fact that I am clearly not sharing your opinion about what should be done with the page.

The film has already been released and has reliable reviews (see reception section). @ CNMall41 : I feel that @ Mushy Yank : is right in this case. Wikipedia:NEWSORGINDIA does not mention The Hindu and the fact that The Hindu requires subscription doesn't mean that specific article was paid for. Several newspapers like The New York Times [32] require subscription but that does not make them unreliable. Since the film has been released and has been the subject of reliable reviews [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] , any further discussion is a complete waste of time. Before you say that The Times of India is unreliable, remember that Uncontroversial content such as film reviews are usable . [38] . DareshMohan ( talk ) 03:55, 16 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] You are reading NEWSORGINDIA wrong. It does not need to mention The Hindu. The publications it lists are EXAMPLES. Just because one is not listed as an example does not mean that NEWSORGINDIA would not apply.

I confess that I find this a bit strange. Anyway, you yourself had asked for "policy-based input" and, as I told you was very much expectable, now that the film was released, you have it. "While having a deletion notice on a page is not harmful, its presence over several weeks can become disheartening for potential editors.", says the guideline. Especially when a film is so clearly meeting various requirements. I have indeed no further comment and will not even bother changing my comment to Keep. If everyone else thinks we are not wasting other users' time and disheartening potential contributors or confusing the reader with that completely unnecessary deletion notice on the page, then, by all means, let's go for at least another round of policy-based Strong/Speedy Keep votes and more or less relevant general considerations about sources and guidelines.

To be fair, the Afd was initiated when those reviews hadn't been published yet (12 days before (:D)). But you are right, withdrawing would have been appreciated (especially when the release made the rationale totally moot); then it was relisted (which was after release and publication of the reviews.... ; but I was accused of BLUDGEONing when I mentioned that reviews were more than enough (!))), so unless someone has the good idea to close this as SNOW, here we are.... - My, oh my!

List of LGBT characters in The Simpsons: The vast majority of the characters listed here are very minor, usually one-off or gag characters with terrible sourcing consisting of other lists ( one of which is the sole source for almost half of the minor characters ) or mere episode reviews that barely mention the characters, making most of this article fail WP:N and WP:GNG The characters that are major enough to talk about already have their own separate articles at Patty and Selma , Waylon Smithers , and Kang and Kodos , or them being LGBT could easily be described on List of recurring The Simpsons characters , which makes the remainder of this article entirely redundant. I want to reiterate so I don’t have to say this again: I am not against noting lgbt characters in The Simpsons, but a list is redundant at best and fancruft at worst, and the only notable section, the lede, has already been copied to a more fitting page. I am open to a compromise: rework this page to be something other than a list format and rename it accordingly (such as "LGBT representation in The Simpsons"), because it's obvious that the list format clearly does not work for this page. Unnamed anon ( talk ) 01:08, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . This grouping is notable as already cited in the list, and note that per WP:NLIST Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable . — siro χ o 03:01, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] A lot of of the non-notable characters are one-offs or gag characters, like "Comic Book Gay" as a parody of Comic Book Guy. Additionally, the contents that are independently notable already have pages at Patty and Selma , Waylon Smithers , and Kang and Kodos , making the majority of sources on this page more fitting for those pages instead, and also making this page very redundant. Unnamed anon ( talk ) 04:08, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That's generally fine for standalone lists as long as they roughly meet WP:NLIST — siro χ o 07:34, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - As stated above, the list is quite notable. Besides the news refs, the fact this topic was covered in a peer-reviewed academic journal is noteworthy. APK whisper in my ear 03:28, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The simple fact that there are lgbt characters or the actual characters themselves are notable? Because, as I mentioned earlier, I had already copied the lede of the article to the influences and legacy section of the show’s page , which sufficiently covers the fact that there are lgbt characters. The peer-reviewed academic journal can also simply be covered on the show’s page, not deserving of being split off in its own article that is otherwise filled with fancruft. I should’t have to reiterate this; the coverage of lgbt representation is fine, but the actual list of characters is not notable in any way because most of these characters are one-offs or have their own pages which can talk about their sexuality. Unnamed anon ( talk ) 04:08, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note - The nominator removed the lede and has removed links to the page from The Simpsons and Template:The Simpsons . @ Unnamed anon : it seems you're very passionate about this, but can you please wait until this AFD has concluded before scrubbing the content? Thank you. APK whisper in my ear 06:30, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I didn't actually remove it fully, as you can see in the top of this afd, I added the lede to the show’s page. I additionally copied the text and sources from the lgbt characters page to the pages for Patty (and Selma), Smithers, and the Aliens, but I have not removed the text from the page they were originally on yet like I did with the lede per your suggestion. I'm frustrated because both of the "keep" reasons have been faulty; both assumed I don't think the representation isn't notable, but it is, hence why the info was moved. The problem is the page being a list at all; part of it redundant due to its subjects having their own pages, and most of the rest consisting of one-offs. Unnamed anon ( talk ) 06:47, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Nowhere did I say you thought representation isn't notable. I referred to the list itself. Let's just wait and see what others think about the page. Take care. APK whisper in my ear 07:01, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Seems odd to delete the lede, as every Wikipedia page should have a lede, and it's okay for content to be duplicated between two Wikipedia pages. Enervation ( talk ) 07:59, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep – The topic of LGBT representation in the Simpsons is notable as the subject of many sources. The list of minor characters seems fine as well if they are included in reliable sources. Enervation ( talk ) 07:59, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Enervation : Here's the giant problem about the minor characters: they are barely talked about in said "reliable" sources, which themselves are mostly lists themselves, furthering the redundancy of this article. For example, this source is simply just another list, and it is the only source of the 7 out of 16 (nearly half!) of the minor character entries on the wikipedia list. One source shouldn't compose of almost half of the sources in a section, how that would be considered acceptable in this disaster of a page is baffling. This source for the first minor character is mostly about an entirely separate character, and is also just another list. Other sources, such as this and this , are simple episode reviews that barely mention the character who uses it as a source. The sourcing on this article is just terrible, and, aside from parts of it that belong on other pages, completely unsalvageable. The topic of LGBT representation in the Simpsons is notable, sure, but belongs on the show’s page, not its own. At the very least, I am open to a compromise: rework it into no longer being a list and (such as "LGBT representation in The Simpsons"), because the list format just does not work for this page, at all.

Just having a list like this seems... random, but the overall topic is standalone notable. Making it into an article would hopefully fix the redundancy issue noted in the AfD. I should also note that LGBT representation in American adult animation , its ostensible companion/parent article, was boldly merged without any sort of consensus which may have caused some of the confusion shown here. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 13:15, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Unnamed anon : If you agree with this, perhaps it is best to withdraw the AfD entirely, and start a move discussion instead.

I still firmly believe that the contents of this article that are actually notable could comfortably fit onto the show's page and the pages for the three characters with articles. Unnamed anon ( talk ) 17:53, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] They can keep running at the same time, but frankly I don't see a path forward for the AfD. It's almost certainly going to be a SNOW close.

There are four academics (or five if the society director is included) in the list of 177 current members, among 800ish since the founding in the 1770s, suggesting that at least one society considers him among the top handful of music academics in Sweden. I don't personally know his work, but I haven't really studied Swedish music history, which is his specialty. But he is the author of the plurality(? majority?) of the articles on Swedish music in the New Grove 2001 encyclopedia, meaning he had enough reputation by then to be a significant authority. I think that to the extent that the Academy does appoint researchers as members, it is in that capacity an academic institution; the American Academy of Arts and Sciences appoints some non-academic musicians and screen actors as well, but its appointments of academics are considered as WP:PROF#C3.

Talk! 00:43, 20 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete . I agree wholeheartedly with the nominator here. There's nothing approaching reliable sources which directly details any aspect of her life except for her few writings, which may or may not be notable themselves. Spin contains a single bare mention of her name and profession, the Skidmore class paper clearly does not meet independence, MOJO (radioheadperu.com) is not an RS, Masthead is her bio page at her employer of the time. The rest of the presented sources are reviews. Note: none of the material asserted in her "biography" section is properly cited and could be deleted by any wikipedian as violating BLP. We owe living subjects better coverage than merely a list of writings. BusterD ( talk ) 09:36, 22 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Per policy though, it's completely fine for the notability of an article about an author to rest entirely on reviews of their work. Meanwhile, some of those reviews, e.g. [52] do include biographical information and could support that section of the article. Jahaza ( talk ) 14:39, 22 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , I think this meets WP:AUTHOR , if not as robustly as some. Otherwise, as an alternative to deletion, if not kept independently, it looks like Exurbia is independently notable and could be its own article and as very much a third choice, it could redirect to Colin Greenwood , where she's mentioned. -- Jahaza ( talk ) 14:43, 22 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment . Expanding on my keep reasoning above: WP:AUTHOR says a writer is notable if "The person has created...[a] well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." Clearly McGrann's work has been the primary subject of independent reviews, and I believe it's apparent that her works or collective body of work are well known, as her books have been reviewed in widely circulated general interest periodicals such as The Guardian and The Sydney Morning Herald . Additional reviews can also be found in The Daily Telegraph : Leith, William (17 July 2004). "Suburb of Lost Souls" . Daily Telegraph . p. 10. Leith, William (17 March 2007). "Clouds Break Through the Sun" . Daily Telegraph . p. 27. pburka ( talk ) 15:57, 22 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : Do I understand the keep arguments correctly? We may base notability for a living person entirely on reviews for their work? I assert the collective body of work is neither well-known, nor has the subject produced a single well-known work. There are reviews, I'll concede. But there is not one single presented or found reliable source which directly details the subject of this living person. What shall we say about this subject? A list of works. That's all we may cite. Disagree with me. BusterD ( talk ) 01:56, 23 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Did you look at any of the reviews, because some, like the Oxford Mail one contain a significant amount of material about her background. Jahaza ( talk ) 03:59, 23 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] FYI, before my first comment on such AfDs, I check sources then perform my own reasonable BEFORE. By my reading, there is nothing in the (tabloid) Oxford Mail review that wouldn't be found on the inside of one of her books' jackets. I disagree with keep asserters' assessment of significant coverage . Most of what I'm seeing, even in reviews, is bare mention of the author. Zero which engages her body of work at all. Routine coverage of individual writings, but nothing which approaches our GNG standard of significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources directly detailing the subject sufficiently to keep and maintain an article about a living person on Wikipedia . As a subject, she doesn't seem to meet ANYBIO or CREATIVE. I can't presume such sourcing exists. Without such sourcing, this biography as written is an original work and as such, synthesis. BusterD ( talk ) 12:44, 23 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yes. That's in line with our notability guidelines. We have lots of articles about people without needing to know biographical minutae. The encyclopedia is improved by the inclusion of articles about athletes, even if we know only about their athletic accomplishments; articles about politicians, even if we know only about their exercise of power; and articles about writers and artists, even if know only about their art. We could give these articles more precise names, I guess ( Works of Molly McGrann , Athletic career of Fernanda Ribeiro , Medals of James Brady ), but it's simpler to treat them as simple biographies. pburka ( talk ) 15:13, 23 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Simpler to whom? Certainly not simpler to the subject of a Wikipedia article which poorly or inaccurately represents that person. Certainly not simpler to the administrator who must close such AfDs. This is exactly why BLP policies were created. We must weigh our contributions against a possible harm. I hold that at least one source must be presented or shown to exist which meets the significant coverage direct detailing criteria. We have none. BusterD ( talk ) 01:13, 24 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Simple, as in concise. But if you agree that Works of Molly McGrann is a notable topic, then we're just quibbling over the title at this point. pburka ( talk ) 22:26, 24 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I am not quibbling in any way. You are clearly misreading my assertion. I have stated I do not find ANY discussion of her body of work, just a few disconnected reviews of individual works. I do NOT hold her body of work is notable. I do NOT hold a single work is notable. I find this is a subject which lacks reliable sources sufficient for a BLP ("works of..." would still fall under BLP policy). Based on presented and found sources, this is a minor figure without any direct detailing by RS. It's a clear delete. I can't find any reason to keep, and the arguments presented thus far are unpersuasive (and don't include RS supporting). BusterD ( talk ) 10:11, 25 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It's your position that not even her books are notable? In that case there's no persuading you, but I expect the closing admin will see that your position is contradicted by several SNGs and years of precedent at AfD that authors of two or more notable books are usually notable. pburka ( talk ) 21:06, 25 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

The standard for a stand-alone article about a local official (including a mayor), is whether there is enough sourcing that describe an official's impact in the community, or national or international coverage where the subject is featured. Size of a jurisdiction's population should generally not be used as a metric. The NBC article appears to be one good source to independently meet GNG, and the prose in the article suggests that the editors have done a good job putting verifiable context to her mayorship and discussing her impact. -- Enos733 ( talk ) 05:08, 12 February 2024 (UTC) Changed to keep. [ reply ] Keep in addition to the NBC source provided by voorts, a second GNG source is a story box about her in "Women and Politics: A Quest for Political Equality in an Age of Economic Inequality" by Barbara Burrell (2017). Beginning on page 120 of the textbook, Burrell features Diaz. Between those two sources and the existing sources, this is a GNG pass. -- Enos733 ( talk ) 05:21, 12 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Two more GNG articles (one found, one alluded to). Coverage in the NY Times after her initial election: "Newcomer’s Rise Signals a Shift in Power New York Times. Jul 6, 2008 (one representative quote "political analysts say victories like those by Ms. Diaz represent a significant generational shift in state politics"). Also, it is mentioned that she was "featured in Real Simple Magazine as, “The Accidental Politician” among only four female mayors nation-wide. " I have not found the article, but if it does say what it is alleged to say, it should also be an independent, significant source. -- Enos733 ( talk ) 06:24, 12 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] As noted in the book, the story box is an excerpt from the NBC piece, not a separate source. That said, I think the NY Times article in addition to the NBC piece meets GNG, so I will be changing my ! vote. voorts ( talk / contributions ) 18:02, 12 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .

Globalization in India: The content in this essay might be belong in various forms on articles such as History of India , Economic history of India , or Economy of India , but has no encyclopedic value as a standalone article. Thenightaway ( talk ) 23:41, 31 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History , Politics , Economics , and India . Skynxnex ( talk ) 02:51, 1 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Trim I agree that the article reads as an essay, with analysis rather than just reporting. For example One event that helped India immensely was when Netscape went public on 9 August 1995. And There is a food security crisis in India because a significant portion of the land has been designated to grow crops for biofuel. Crops like rice and wheat are often harvested in large quantities. However, the amount of crops that are used for biofuel is largely unregulated, with an inadequate amount going to the poor and needy. However, there is also much useful and interesting referenced material. I recommend that, if the article is kept, it be brutally edited to remove every paragraph or sentence that does not have an adequate citation (noting that sometimes the citation for a sentence comes with the sentence before, and that sometimes the justifying citation is to another Wikipedia page, of course.) This will give a much smaller and focussed article. Rick Jelliffe ( talk ) 01:20, 3 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment . The topic is notable but the content is a mess. Could be a WP:TNT job?

Thebiguglyalien ( talk ) 17:02, 15 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Draftify/Merge This is an awful lot of synthesis, attributing a development and social concepts to globalization without narrowing this admittedly broad concept into a cohesive article. The Payments section is a duplicate of Economy_of_India#Balance_of_payments , the Investments section duplicates Economy_of_India#Foreign_direct_investment , the Remittances section duplicates Economy_of_India#Remittances . The Women section is vague, and although this can be tied to international companies I don't think increased access to education is strong thesis here. The Education section is likewise vague without direct discussion of globalization. I'm baffled what this Health section is doing here. The Historical Context section is similarly vague, where "India" could be replaced with the name of any other country. Trimming what isn't relevant or what is duplicative leaves little unique or useful content, so a redirect to Economy of India may be appropriate – the noted sections should not just be removed from the main article. Something being conceived as notable doesn't mean it needs a stand-alone article. Reywas92 Talk 21:37, 15 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 05:22, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . This is a second active AfD nomination by an editor with very few (56) edits, with an invalid deletion rationale of "just a high school". Just as with the other nomination, it is a school over 100 years old with many, many references available. Jacona ( talk ) 14:50, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - I assume this editor found this high school looking through my | contributions after my response in a previous deletion discussion . Dayton High School has been established for many years and a very simple Google news tab [ search ] yields more than enough results to satisfy the GNG guidelines. This editor is acting in bad faith and seems to be going on a streak of overzealous deletion given the apparent inexperience in AFD and lack of rationale. Burgeoning Contracting 16:40, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ BurgeoningContracting A Google search shows lots of results but any high school is going to be mentioned a lot in local media. Which of those search results are non-trivial coverage in reliable, independent sources? Counterfeit Purses ( talk ) 17:12, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I don't know how you define trivial or independent, as the sources are both. Perhaps you did not look at the "news" tab like I had stated. A Newspapers.com search yields thousands of results going back to the establishment of Dayton ISD in the late 1800s. Burgeoning Contracting 17:25, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ BurgeoningContracting That link doesn't work for me. I don't have access to Wikipedia library. The first result I get in a Google news search is "Dayton school board considering policy change for students who attend games" in the Dayton Daily News. As I said, any school will have mentions in the local news - football game scores, graduations, etc. Is there any in-depth reporting about the school from outside of the local community? Saying why this school is notable? Counterfeit Purses ( talk ) 17:37, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Dayton Daily News is an Dayton -based paper. Not Dayton, Texas. I find it remarkable you are not able to access the Newspapers.com link, but you can certainly see this version . Just because you cannot see or find the results on Google does not mean they do not exist. There are too many examples to link. Burgeoning Contracting 17:59, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ BurgeoningContracting You're right. So it's not even an article about the same high school, which just shows that having a lot of search results doesn't mean that something has non-trivial, independent coverage in reliable secondary sources. Counterfeit Purses ( talk ) 18:08, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I don't understand what you it is that you mean by "trivial." I'm afraid this is a case of disruptive behavior to make a point since I am handing you these sources into your own hands. Burgeoning Contracting 18:21, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ BurgeoningContracting "Trivial" in this case is the opposite of "substantive". See WP:SIGCOV . I have no idea what you mmean by "I am handing you these sources into your own hands". Which sources? Counterfeit Purses ( talk ) 18:34, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If one is to read the s ignificant coverage guideline , it will read, "addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." Obviously, both search options I presented, again, yield various results that satisfy this requirement. I will no longer respond to your replies, since it seems this is a case of plain disruptive behavior , more specifically, a case of I Can't Hear you Burgeoning Contracting 18:48, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ BurgeoningContracting I can't hear you because you aren't answering my question. I have told you that I can't access the newspapers.com articles and the Google search results aren't helpful. What are the reliable sources that provide significant, independent coverage to show that this high school belongs in Wikipedia? If you have some, why not tell me what they are or add them to the article? Counterfeit Purses ( talk ) 20:47, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] ┌───────────────────────────┘ Counterfeit Purses , Your ability to access a source doesn't make a source valid or invalid.

Counterfeit Purses ( talk ) 21:16, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Counterfeit Purses , I'm playing no game.

As a matter of fact, in at least one state (Indiana) they are commonly referred to as "school-city". They are not educational institutions, but rather quasigovernmental administrative districts with taxing authority and elected officials; the same reasons other governmental entities recieve a near presumption of notability under the geography SNGs.

However, reviews in old programming magazines might be hard to dig out. XOR'easter ( talk ) 18:37, 19 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep I'll be the first to admit I haven't determined notability for a computer author before, so I'm willing to change my mind if strong alternative views are put forward. However, I did a search on Archive.org and turned up a number of computer magazines that reviewed works by André LaMothe . This includes reviews of his works in places like Game Developer Magazine , PC Zone , and other magazines (see the search link above to find the reviews). I also found a three-page profile of him in issue 4 of Make Magazine from 2005, where it's stated that he's the author of 15 books and hundreds of games ( link to archive.org edition here ). Based on all that I believe he meets our notability guidelines. -- SouthernNights ( talk ) 19:28, 19 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That article doesn't seem like a profile about him , but the .

XOR'easter ( talk ) 23:46, 19 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment in response to ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ : While the article I mentioned above is about the XGS console, it's almost totally focused on LaMothe's work developing it and his larger work in the industry. The article even describes him as the "Yoda of game design." While we can disagree if that article qualifies as a profile or not, the article does go a long way toward proving his notability. He also has had his work reviewed and discussed in a number of other articles in various gaming and computer magazines along with having an entry in Baker & Taylor Author Biographies. I've now added information from all these citations to the article. In short, the citations I've found shows he's a best-selling author of game development books along with creating his own games and systems.

It has several sentences of historical details and a pull photo of it, in particular Although not large in size, the Esso Station in Piggott is notable for its Colonial Revival style of architecture and its excellent state of preservation. . And being torn down doesn't really change anything since notability is WP:NOTTEMPORARY . For the name, there's no other full article with that base name.

The Pitchfork source is a short review of an EP and says nothing of the subject himself. The bio on AllMusic is not significant coverage, not RS, and submitted by a "Paul Simpson", whoever that is. Other coverage is weaker in making a case for GNG than these which already fail. Aside from not passing GNG, GNG is a presumption, not a guarantee, of notability.

Sources on the article are a mix of non-RS, primary sources, not independent of the subject especially interviews, not significant coverage, which do not help make a case for notability. Research done by the nominator, BiggestBidder, and I have turned up more of this. Take the McCollum piece in DJ Mag on the article, probably the best source available. It's an interview with the subject, which is primary information and not independent of the subject. Fails WP:GNG , which is only a minimum bar presumption for notability. Saucysalsa30 ( talk ) 02:45, 5 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] AllMusic is an established reliable source as per Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources . and has a byline written by Paul Simpson who is a staff writer at AllMusic. The Pitchfork review is four paragraphs long and the first paragraph is biographical information directly about him, and it is also independent criticism of his music which of course is relevant to him. The DJ Mag piece is significant coverage in a reliable source so there is enough to pass WP:GNG imv Atlantic306 ( talk ) 22:32, 8 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I spoke to each one here. [20] Adding a little more. The AllMusic source, in just 280 words, is puffery and discography in all but 50 words. Hardly prime biographic material. The Pitchfork review on an EP has a whopping 2 sentences about him biographically, mentioning 3 cities he's lived in. I'll repeat, the DJ Mag piece is not independent of the subject and is mostly primary sourcing, being an interview. It's as dependent on the subject as it could possibly get. WP:GNG does not accept this and neither does NMUSIC: "This criterion includes published works in all forms .. except for the following: .. publications where the musician or ensemble talks about themselves" GNG is not met. The nomination still stands. The subject appears to be a minor DJ with a smattering of low depth coverage. Worth reminding that GNG is not any guarantee to keep an article either. It's a bare minimum threshold to consider notability without sounding preposterous. Unfortunately, Lsdxoxo does not meet this low threshold.

Parkrun: Excessively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to serve as encyclopedia articles. Refbombed with primary sources to detail the minutia of running events, promoting awards and achievements. TNT it and allow the creation of a non advert. duffbeerforme ( talk ) 08:51, 26 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : A quick glance at the article shows multiple instances of WP:SIGCOV from reliable and major news sources including BBC News, the Guardian and Reuters plus academic papers. The article could be improved. It leans too heavily on primary sources, I don't think there's any need for a list of Parkrun events and "stylised as" notes for branding are a personal pet peeve but it's not an AfD candidate to me as it clearly meets WP:GNG . Even nom says it needs to be "rewritten" so I'm unclear as to why it's here at AfD.

The article text includes references to independent studies of Parkrun and its impact. While I agree that articles should be trimmed of minutiae, that is a matter for normal editing; the present article looks far from requiring WP:TNT . AllyD ( talk ) 09:28, 26 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Strong keep . A worldwide weekly participation event that has attracted WP:SIGCOV clearly satisfies WP:GNG . Agreed, there are too many primary sources (one would question whether many aspects actually need to be referenced at all!), but no less than 50 of the current 117 references are cited to reliable secondary sources, including the BBC, Reuters, running and sports sites, government sources, and medical journals.

Nom should be aware that notability is established by reliable sources IN THE WORLD: there is no requirement for the sources to be already in the article, though in this case there are certainly plenty there too. The BEFORE search should be external, and a nominator should be convinced that good sources cannot be found. The case is rather the reverse here.

Ulrike Fitzer: No SIGCOV, only a few passing mentions, she once was in a non-notable documentary film. 〜 Festucalex • talk 20:51, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Women , Military , Aviation , and Germany . Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 21:52, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Also known as Ulrike Flender. Her article on the German Wikipedia is much more fleshed out and has links to several sources of significanto coverage. In short, passes WP:GNG with sources such as these [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] . Alvaldi ( talk ) 23:13, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . The first female fighter pilot in a major air force is clearly notable. And easily enough coverage to meet WP:GNG in any case. -- Necrothesp ( talk ) 11:09, 16 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

Fionna Gibb: Ambassadors are not inherently notable. Most of the coverage is about the rainbow flag incident which is not WP:SIGCOV about her and would be better placed in the relevant bilateral relations article.

Shellwood ( talk ) 10:30, 8 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I added some references. I found some additional references by searching for the person's name, restricted to the country where she was posted. That is, I searched for "Fionna Gibb" site:by . This is often the best way to find additional references about an ambassador or other diplomat. Eastmain ( talk • contribs ) 13:20, 9 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I don't regard a number of additional sources are WP:SIGCOV , they mainly merely confirm she held a meeting with the Belarus government. such as [16] , [17] and [18] . This one is short and confirms a few biographical details of Gibb. This one is her commenting as a representative of the UK government.

Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 10:37, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete does not appear to pass WP:GNG . The controversy may be suitable for discussion on another article, but it's not really about her.

Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 12:21, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep per the sources. NYC Guru ( talk ) 14:59, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - there is enough to support her notability in my opinion including coverage of an attempted assassination in Yemen that she survived, and I think ambassadors probably should be considered more notable than not for inclusion. - Indefensible ( talk ) 19:00, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete Lacks in-depth coverage in independent sources, as needed to meet WP:NBIO . MrsSnoozyTurtle 05:23, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per Indefensible .

Talk! 18:46, 22 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . Here is one more source from MENA REPORT via ProQuest [19] . WP:BASIC states If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability (with a long note about what trivial type sources don't help). The sources we have seem to provide that at this point. — siro χ o 22:15, 22 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per Indefensible and Siroxo.
