2024 South African provincial elections: User was BOLD in creating it, but there are individual articles for the provincial elections, and the results summary (which is all it is) belongs on the main page, where it was cut from. It also does not attribute the source article. Greenman ( talk ) 10:20, 9 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Politics-related deletion discussions .

Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 11:25, 9 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete per nom. This should really just be on the main article. Flemmish Nietzsche ( talk ) 12:04, 9 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , as the primary article is already very large, and it should remain mostly focused on the national parliamentary election. I propose keeping this article, and removing all the repeating content from the primary one. If length is an issue, there are better things to remove from the main article than the results summary. That page cannot display endless opinion polls, various trivia in the leadup etc., but not display the results :) Greenman ( talk ) 13:48, 10 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] MapperGuy87 ( talk ) 20:57, 9 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep — The original article is very long and a page for subdivisional elections is common for systems like this. This page could be more in-depth but it makes far more sense to put a shorter summary (probably in a table form) on the "general election" page and keep the in-depth stuff here. Watercheetah99 ( talk ) 01:48, 10 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I don't think you've assessed the situation correctly. There are already in-depth (or what can become in-depth) pages for each individual provincial election. This intermediate page serves no purpose. The summary that it currently contains should be on the main page, and in-depth coverage should be on the individual pages. Greenman ( talk ) 13:46, 10 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] No I'm aware, this is just a common element of approaches to similar systems. There are intermediate pages to link elections on the same subdivision level; for example: despite the fact that pretty much every locality's elections had a specific page, the 2024 United Kingdom local elections article exists and helps link the elections. An even better example are pages like 2022 United States gubernatorial elections or 2023 Nigerian gubernatorial elections , these intermediate pages are common and serve a purpose. If we wanted to completely overhaul the 2024 South African election pages, these examples could be models: there'd be an overview page ("2024 South African elections" based on 2024 United States elections ) with a tables and short summaries on national, provincial, and local (by-) elections; there'd be separate 2024 South African general election and 2024 South African provincial elections pages; and there'd be pages for each provincial election. This would shorten each article and avoid the current overlap of each page. Those are just my suggestions and probably too much work, but I'm still a Keep for this discussion. Watercheetah99 ( talk ) 04:42, 11 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Seems reasonable to have a summary article that keeps all the provincial election results in one place and links out to more detailed articles. As Watercheetah says, this is fairly standard practice (e.g. 2023 Italian regional elections ).

Timothytyy ( talk ) 04:08, 3 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect any that cannot be expanded to either Purple Line (Namma Metro)#Stations or List of Namma Metro stations (I have a very slight preference for the former but am happy with either target). While there appears to be little information available at the moment (I've only looked at a couple) they are all highly plausible search terms and so should redirect to the information we do have in one of the aforementioned articles until such time as they can be expanded. Thryduulf ( talk ) 08:58, 3 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi @ Thryduulf and @ Timothytyy , The metro stations "Benniganahalli" and "Challeghatta" are getting ready and are set to become operational in the third week of September. I request you to consider "undeletion" only for those 2 wikipages. More information are to be added when nearing the operational dates. Hope to see some good response from your side. Thank You, Sameer Kumar. Sameer2905 ( talk ) 02:05, 4 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Can you guarantee that individual SIGCOV will be provided to those two stations? Because even operational stations don't have individual coverage according to my research. As every article contains similar information, it would be a nice choice to add the information to the metro line's article. That would be more organized while it does pass GNG. Timothytyy ( talk ) 05:06, 4 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I can guarantee that individual SIGVOC will be provided. Sorry for the late response since I just checked your reply to my blog. Pls give me 2 weeks time and I'll get the required information. Sameer2905 ( talk ) 05:40, 6 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi @ Thryduulf and @ Timothytyy , I hope the SIGCOV provided is useful for those stations. Please let me know if any changes to be made and hoping to get the response from your side. Thank you. Sameer2905 ( talk ) 14:00, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The sources provided do not provide individual SIGCOV. For example, the sources you provided in Benniganahalli metro station are just coverage about the line, not the station. Check Cockfosters tube station for an idea about individual SIGCOV. Timothytyy ( talk ) 06:13, 27 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect I can prove the GNG and SIGCOV for some of the articles from Pune Metro listed in here. Other pages can be reinstated to their previous redirects which existed before expanding them. I'll notify here once I'm done with the updates. Just one question - after redirecting the pages, would it be possible to restore the expanded versions in the future when SIGCOV is available? Let me know about it DesiBoy101 ( talk ) 05:45, 4 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Of course restoring is possible, but remember SIGCOV requires independent, detailed coverage from non-subject-affiliated reliable sources .

Timothytyy ( talk ) 10:29, 17 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep all . As evident from Timothy's latest comments, each station is its own case and deserves a serious discussion. Rather than a bulk nomination, perhaps nominate one station where you believe that you might have a case? gidonb ( talk ) 14:39, 17 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep all . Tube stations in other parts of the world have articles on them (e.g. Oxford Circus tube station ), so I do not see why Indian tube stations are automatically non-notable. What does not help are editors who think that "only now counts" and delete citations to events like stations opening, etc. Over time it will be possible for articles on Indian tube stations to grow. Destroying the "seed corn" articles prevents this from happening. -- Toddy1 (talk) 16:30, 17 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I second that. Information available about the stations will continue to grow as the time progresses and thus help in article improvement. - DesiBoy101 ( talk ) 03:15, 18 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Toddy1 Invalid comment. You cannot assume notability of one article by comparing it with other articles; after all, Tube stations have a long history and there is sufficient SIGCOV; however, no individual coverage is provided for Indian metro stations, at least according to my research. @ Gidonb , as you can see, most articles can be redirected, only some need further consensus and some have been improved, so I don't see why "each station is its own case and deserves a serious discussion". To me they are all very similar (except the two articles which have been expanded after my nomination). The merge is equivalent to a redirection. The difference in redirection target doesn't mean that there should be separate discussions, as all targets are similar in nature. Timothytyy ( talk ) 11:22, 18 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I disagree that we can go out with a broad brush and claim that metro stations in different cities and even states resemble each other, just because all are in India. Each station would need to be discussed on its own merrits (i.e. the existence of sources per WP:NEXIST , NOT the current state of sourcing) and I will warn upfront that I am going to be lenient with sources as we have a MAJOR problem with equity in coverage between developed and developing nations, alongside a real problem with sources in developing nations. That said, I would like to be constructive. YOUR BEST CASE here is to merge Pune Railway Station metro station into Pune Junction railway station . I'm happy to get behind that! gidonb ( talk ) 07:46, 21 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I understand your frustration, the articles about Chinese stations created by me also got redirected because few Chinese sources are defined as reliable (e.g. WeChat and Sina are the major news sources, but unfortunately they aren't reliable). Frustrations aside, I still need to uphold the guidelines. The articles fail GNG; you cannot disprove that (unless you can provide SIGCOV, even local sources are ok, in that case welcome). You mentioned NEXIST; however, I cannot find any independent reliable coverage of the stations. WP:TRAINSTATION, an SNG, has long been deprecated. Also, I don't see any harm of removing articles with no extra information ; the articles I nominated are almost identical, and readers cannot get any useful information out of it other than a few specific parameters which may not interest most readers, not backed up by RS, and can be shown in a list of stations. After all, Wikipedia strives for quality , not quantity. Timothytyy ( talk ) 12:42, 21 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I subscribe to these policies, well before yet another passionate response ;-) If you feel that there is a strong case somewhere hidden among all these metro stations in different cities and states, you could go ahead and nominate that station. gidonb ( talk ) 13:36, 22 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep all - Not only is this far too many articles for a batch AfD, but major metro stations of a major metropolitan city are inherently notable. It is impossible for there not to be extensive government reports, surveys, budgets and other records on such projects. As mentioned above we have articles on stations of every other major city. I honestly doubt anyone would even think of AfDing any of the similar London Underground , Berlin U-Bahn or Paris Metro stations. Is this a case of systemic bias ? Oakshade ( talk ) 03:24, 19 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Your comment is WP:OTHERSTUFF . Articles exist not because of inherited notability but because of coverage. If you cannot provide SIGCOV about those stations, they fail GNG and I see no reason to keep them. Timothytyy ( talk ) 09:54, 20 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Timothytyy, you have had your say. There is no need for you to sandwich everybody else's comment with an explanation of why you disagree with them. -- Toddy1 (talk) 12:16, 20 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Toddy1 Do you think your stance is supported by relevant guidelines? You don't seem to understand how notability works. No users supporting keeping provided a valid criterion; you two's comments are just nice examples of OTHERSTUFF votes.

These should not be bundled into a single nomination but judged on individual merits. -- Necrothesp ( talk ) 10:08, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep all as a bad bundle, with no prejudice to re-AfDing in a more individual fashion. Bundling stations from different lines and especially different cities is highly likely to not succeed. AfDs that bundle stations only from one line in my opinion will product the most significant results.

As this conflict shows no sign of ending, as well as the fact that this will eventually differ heavily in the future from the 2023 Sudan conflict , primarily because there will be more battling in other cities.

NYMan6 ( talk ) 21:04, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Not necessarily. Khartoum is the epicenter of the clashes and the capital of the country, so most news outlets cover Khartoum and Sudan as one thing, but articles about other cities and Khartoum alone exist.

If not, that will become clear later (see WP:LAGGING ). Clashes are taking place all over the country. Covering the ones in the capital, Omdurman, etc. would most definitely not be a content fork. Draftifying is not only quite unnecessary, but would make the article much less visible, attracting far fewer editors. Absolutely not!

You've created an article that already exists. The Kip ( talk ) 23:07, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The clashes article is about the country as a whole, this article is for only Khartoum not the full on 2023 Sudan clashes, if were going to make this a productive and good article, we'd have to think about it, most of the article, ( 2023 Sudan clashes ), is full of statements and texts mainly about Khartoum for literally three whole paragraphs, I understand that this is a serious part of it and you probably will find a lot of news coverage and recent coverage about it, but you guys should start reporting in things like Darfur , Nyala and Merowe instead of Khartoum, And put the parts about Khartoum into a section about the battle but smaller and with a link with (See also) at the top of the text for people to enter the main article. Make the article more reliable and full of a lot more information of other occupations/captures across the country. Do you understand @ The Kip NYMan6 ( talk ) 20:55, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] To be quite honest I don’t, considering what you’ve written is one singular run-on sentence. The simple fact is everything contained within the battle article is already within the clashes article. It’s redundant, and especially considering the state of the two, with all due respect please don’t lecture myself or others on what we should do. The Kip ( talk ) 20:58, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm not lecturing just supporting my claim on this, as you can see their are still lot's of information you should put instead of the tons of sentences you have put in the article, and just give the people reading the article an understanding of the battle. NYMan6 ( talk ) 21:06, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I haven't been able to add any new information to the page because I've been busy cleaning up the quite honestly incomprehensible grammatical errors your additions have contained. Even your response above is one run-on, comma-heavy sentence that barely makes sense. I understand your enthusiasm, I really do, but please, just stop for a little bit. Review WP:MOS , run your edits through Grammarly, do something so that your content additions are coherent and myself and others don't have to undertake near-constant cleanup work. The Kip ( talk ) 03:43, 20 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm going take a break for a while today, I know and understand your claim and your ongoing feedback and am trying my best to improve this article. I have noticed my grammar towards this article has gradually improved to the point where we no longer need the large/excessive clean-ups we saw the past week, primarily those are now used for when I upload new updates to the article. I'll tell you I am trying my best to make this a great article. Thank you , NYMan6 ( talk ) 14:33, 22 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep This is a battle of the ongoing clashes so, keep it — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lucasoliveira653 ( talk • contribs ) 14:05, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Draftify For the moment, there's not much of an indication that the clashes have spread heavily outside of Khartoum, which makes this article redundant. However, wouldn't recommend deletion until the situation as a whole plays itself out. The Kip ( talk ) 23:07, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Replying to @ The Kip Draftitfying it would hide it from editors, this article would be forgotten later on, more information is being added constently, I wouldn't put it into a draft, this is a very prominent event currently. NYMan6 ( talk ) 23:14, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Draftifying is necessary when the entire article is redundant. There's little to no coverage of this battle separate from the clashes as a whole, and the article itself is effectively "airport, palace, military base," also documented in the main article, on continuous repeat. Considering the current state of the grammar and content, this article arguably should've never been published in the first place. The Kip ( talk ) 23:23, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Firstly, when lots of content is being added by non-native editors (especially IP editors), there are bound to be some grammar errors. If you see something, do something and fix it. Secondly, the daily timeline structure in the main article is an ad hoc layout that will be restructured if the clashes last long enough. RadioactiveBoulevardier ( talk ) 23:21, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The problem is it's not IP editors but a registered one, and it's not minor errors but a near-incoherent structure to the article as a whole that I've repeatedly had to clean up. I encourage you to take a look at the talk page as well as earlier revisions; I'm not going to continuously play janitor here. The Kip ( talk ) 16:23, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Draftify - All the arguments supporting drafting the article looks to be more valid than the people arguing to keep it. Onegreatjoke ( talk ) 13:38, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Seriously, this is what's heavily frustrating me. I'm afraid an admin will see all the keep votes and assume it should be kept, when in reality most keep votes are voting that way simply because "well, it's notable!" rather than legitimately assessing whether the article should even exist - which it honestly shouldn't, as almost everything within it is already covered in 2023 Sudanese clashes . The Kip ( talk ) 17:37, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - Considering the escalation of this conflict. I'm inclined to say keep now.

NYMan6 ( talk ) 20:43, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] As the person who revised effectively all of the many, many grammar issues you created, I’m going to once again state this article still should not have even seen the light of day until being reviewed as a draft.

NYMan6 ( talk ) 20:59, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep.

Thehistorianisaac ( talk ) 06:06, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The importance of this battle is yet to be discovered - Which is exactly why it may not be notable, see WP:CRYSTALBALL . Whether or not it is imporant in the future is irrelevant to its notability now. Also, keep in mind that deletion is not a death sentence for an article, as most articles can be recreated anyway (well, excluding these ones ).

Definitely it's a battle-- Noel baran ( talk ) 11:58, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak Keep . This article was probably created too early, but now I would say there are enough references to keep it separate from the main article. For the future, I would say if this conflict wraps up relatively quickly, then a merge might be appropriate. Yeoutie ( talk ) 19:16, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep It is a real battle occurring in a real conflict. If this article contains almost the same content that 2023 Sudan clashes contains, the events related to Khartoum should be summarized in the main article, with a link to Battle of Khartoum (2023) in case readers want to read a more detailed version of the events in Khartoum. Nythar ( 💬 - 🍀 ) 21:54, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - I've observed the progress of this conflict and this discussion, and I have come to the decision to keep this article. As this conflict is now countrywide and has been going on for a bit, I think a separate article for the Battle in Khartoum is reasonable. - L'Mainerque - ( Disturb my slumber ) - 23:15, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - meets notability for event, WP:GNG . It is distinct enough from the article that is merge target to be kept seperate. Inter&anthro ( talk ) 20:22, 20 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - This is a battle of the ongoing clashes.

This is a major Swiss engineering company. According to de:Marti Holding , their annual turnover is more than a billion Swiss francs. Anyway, a quick search in Swiss Google News confirms notability immediately: [1] , [2] , [3] , [4] . — Kusma ( talk ) 11:00, 21 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Kusma : Thank you for finding these sources. Although I can't read German, Google Translate revealed that the second source is routine coverage with no significant detail on the company, and the fourth source is just a passing mention, both of which fail to meet WP:CORPDEPTH . However, the third one provides some depth about the company. The first source requires a subscription, so I am unable to review it; let's wait for others to check it. Additionally, it's a bit confusing whether the article is about a group of companies or an individual company, as the article on de-wiki is titled Marti Holding . If the article is kept, the title should be adjusted accordingly. GSS 💬 13:16, 21 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Most of the articles will talk about what the company does, and go into depth about their projects, and not about the company itself. I think that should be expected of most companies, but especially of private and construction companies who are not usually in the spotlight. With that said, as Kusma noted, even information about the company itself can be found to establish notability. The article is intentionally meant to be about the entire group, as I think that their internal company structure and who does what is not easy to decipher for the public and it's also not interesting. Marti Holding is a holding company that owns a lot of others, but in a sense it's just one of many official entities and less relevant. They call themselves Marti Group on their own official channels and that's why I named it as such. Fejesjoco ( talk ) 14:28, 21 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] A deal worth a billion dollars for a significant part of Central Europe's greatest infrastructure project may be "routine coverage" to you. To me, it indicates that we should have an article about this company. It is an embarrassment that we did not have one ten years ago. — Kusma ( talk ) 15:22, 21 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] In the past hour, I added some sources found by Kusma and some others by me. These go in depth about the company so these should satisfy the notability and coverage depth criteria, much better than the average in this category. Additionally, since at one point you wanted to delete the article on grounds of being promotional, I added a section about a controversy of theirs, with even more direct news coverage sources. Fejesjoco ( talk ) 18:52, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep (but I'm biased). With recent edits to the article, the concerns raised should be eliminated by now. BTW found another strong source [5] a university research project. The talk page lists additional ideas for extending the article, but even without that it should be good enough already.

Srnec ( talk ) 01:17, 22 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] This just doesn't seem notable, and again has no references, and never really will since there is no mention of it except for book's passing reference to Ptolemy.

The entry is merely a single sentence long, which makes TNT meaningless. This is not a hoax in any form, so a deletion should not be the case. After a very superficial search, I can see that there are some sources available: [22] [23] There are some more on the German Wikipedia, according to which this was a subdivision of a more major tribe (Campi/Kampoi/...), which may merit a move. Overall, I have no prejudice to changing my vote to merge but don't think this should be deleted. Aintabli ( talk ) 14:33, 22 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] A quick search shows that there is no information about that tribe ( [24] ) other than Wikipedia and people copying from it. Does seem like there is some passing reference to it in books, but frankly also seem not to meet notability guidelines , and is 100% a WP:DICDEF . Also, this article is currently useless . TNT may not be a policy, but in this case isn't not a terrible idea. @ Aintabli Me Da Wikipedian ( talk ) 21:39, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm not sure that this is simply useless . What I get from TNT is that a clean restart saves a lot of time and is sometimes beneficial when the page has too many major problems. This is obviously not the case here. As I have already pointed out, this tribe is a part of a major tribe (Kampoi), which is the actual focus of the German Wikipedia entry. I believe moving and expanding is also an option as I have found several more sources here . At best, this could be merged into another article. I am pretty much opposed to deletion at this point. Aintabli ( talk ) 05:04, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I don't see a sensible place to merge this. A merge would be better, if anyone has an idea of where it should go. And I think this should be renamed to match the name of the German article, which is about the broader group this is a sub-group of. But I do think that broader group is notable. The source linked in the de-wiki article gives us about an entire page of text, with the heading Kampoi , in a specialist encyclopedia. -- asilvering ( talk ) 05:49, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Added the German Wiki stuff.

Sichuanese Pinyin: However, I see no evidence that "Sichuanese Pinyin" actually exists as a concept outside of Wikipedia (and a few sites which have cloned the article or used it as a source over the years). Three Sichuanese dictionaries are referenced on the article, none of which refer to the system as "Sichuanese Pinyin" (in English or Chinese), and they aren't even consistent between themselves over the systems they use (e.g. one uses ⟨ng⟩ to transcribe /ŋ/, while another uses ⟨ŋ⟩). For added context: it's common for modified versions of (standard) Pinyin to be used to transcribe Chinese (dia)lects which don't have their own romanisation systems, so the fact that that's happened with these dictionaries is unsurprising. However, for "Sichuanese Pinyin" to exist as a separate concept, you would expect (at the very least) to find multiple sources using the same system, all referring to it by that name (e.g. Cantonese Jyutping , Hokkien Pe̍h-ōe-jī , or even lesser-known systems like Hainanese Bǽh-oe-tu ). That isn't the case here, so it cannot be anything other than original research.

I think it's fine to mention the systems used by different dictionaries; I just don't think we should be implying it's a unified system with the name "Sichuanese Pinyin", or that it's in actual use more generally.

Contrary to what Zxcvbnm implied, keep votes are not based on unsubstantiated claims that there might be secondary sources out there, but such sources have been brought forward in previous deletion discussions. I can copy those here if that's deemed necessary, but it clearly would have been the job of the nominator to inform themselves about those . So I think this article should be kept, as its problems can be improved through normal editing based on those sources. In this specific case, I think a nomination so shortly after the last (and already the fourth!) is not appropriate: In case of suspected inappropriate closue , considering a WP:Deletion review would have been the thing to do, as well as having a close look at Wikipedia:Renominating for deletion .

My very best wishes ( talk ) 19:30, 17 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I would argue that the "Hezbollah involvement in the Syrian civil war" article is focused on the activity of Lebanese Hezbollah in Syria, not the operations of the Syrian associates / puppets of Hezbollah.

Also, this article was created at 18:00, 14 November 2023‎ by Kirmel , and the draft mentioned in the nomination was created by the nominator at 20:47, 15 November 2023‎; content and/or sources from the draft created by the nominator could be incorporated into this article instead of deleting this article.

TompaDompa ( talk ) 01:10, 24 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep I don't even understand the nomination: "Wikipedia is not for lists of best and this article is pretty much all synth." Wikipedia is for anything that meets the criteria of WP:LISTN , which this list clearly does. Polls and surveys of the best films have enjoyed prolific coverage in a plethora of reliable sources. It is a legitimate topic to cover here on Wikipedia. There is no synth in this article; synth is defined as taking claim A from one source, claim B from another, and combining them to deduce claim C, that is not present in either source. There are no claims of that nature in this list: each and every film on the list is directly sourced, and can be corroborated by that source.

So just because one of four articles that the nominator listed is more specifically about the US, doesn't negate the point that tbe topic is in fact already covered at great lengths in the others. Raladic ( talk ) 05:44, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] By this logic, we should be creating a new article--like the don't say gay bill article-- for each instance of this occurrence for all of the mentioned provinces. MicrobiologyMarcus ( talk ) 12:53, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I was expecting this to be a delete but the Google News search was enough to persuade me otherwise. This does seem to be a thing and this does seem to be what people are calling it. The Google Scholar links complicate things a bit as some of the hits there show the term going back to the late 1990s. The earlier uses seem to be far less explicitly anti-LGBT but I assume that there is at least some continuity here and the rhetoric, initially couched in euphemisms, has gradually becoming more and more "mask off" as anti-LGBT and anti-intellectual sentiment has become normalised. I think that there is probably more to this topic than the article covers rather than less and that speaks against a merge, particularly if this movement is not exclusively anti-LGBT. If it seeks to limit access to sex education more generally then that would make the suggested merge targets untenable. -- DanielRigal ( talk ) 04:22, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States and it's sub article LGBT grooming conspiracy theory already covers the topic, as well as the related policies such as book bans in the greater context though, which is an important point of WP:NOPAGE as many of the current anti-LGBT movements by the far-right have to been seen as a whole which this sub-topic cannot explain sufficiently. Raladic ( talk ) 04:43, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment "anti-LGBT and anti-intellectual sentiment has become normalised" This political movement seems to be specifically transphobic , rather than anti-LGBT. And anti-intellectualism has a long history in the United States, as pointed by its main article. " John Traphagan of the University of Texas attributes this to a culture of anti-intellectualism, noting that nerds and other intellectuals are often stigmatized in American schools and popular culture. At universities, student anti-intellectualism has resulted in the social acceptability of cheating on schoolwork, especially in the business schools, a manifestation of ethically expedient cognitive dissonance rather than of academic critical thinking ." Dimadick ( talk ) 07:49, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] In which case the article should be broadened and maybe renamed into 2020s anti-intellectual movement as a more neutral term, rather than WP:WHITEWASHing a political term that far-right conservatives are trying to normalize, which can instead redirect to the section there. This is simular to the broader article about the Origins of the American Civil War , which discussed the fact that the wrongful argument of States rights was tried to be used, but in actuality was a disguise - this here seems like a similar case of disguising the topic of suppressing minorities under the guise of another "rights" pretense, which should be discussed as part of the wider topic.

Zenomonoz ( talk ) 04:35, 16 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - despite what others have mentioned, the suggestion WP:ATD-M doesn't apply here, this is a growing article that is likely to continue to be expanded. MicrobiologyMarcus ( talk ) 12:38, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Eh, I think it would be better if it was merged into the 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States page and fear that if this has its own page, it will only promote misinformation, apart from being unnecessary. Historyday01 ( talk ) 14:11, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Disagree, I do not think the sections on Canada should be merged into an article about a movement in the United States MicrobiologyMarcus ( talk ) 14:23, 15 September 2023 (UTC) Further, the potential for misinformation is not a good reason to prevent WP:COMMONNAME from taking precedence here. If people are searching for parental rights then this should come up in the search results and explain how it is an anti-trans conservative movement. It's clear that's what people are using, by the aforementioned Google News search. MicrobiologyMarcus ( talk ) 15:42, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Rename if kept This is a blantantly anti-LGBT movement disguised as as parental rights, and using this name makes it a POV fork of the above articles, to which it may also be merged . The article is not explicit enough that the name is propaganda. Parental rights to do what? To harass LBGT youth and restrict their education and healthcare. Reminds me of saying the civil war was about states' rights without mentioning what was the right for the state to do. I don't think that because it has spread to Canada means it needs to be a standalone article and a merge may still be appropriate; perhaps 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States needs a complimentary 2020s anti-LGBT movement in Canada ? Reywas92 Talk 13:27, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - This does intrigue me, however we would need a redirect from parental rights, but we could follow the same model as Pro-Life . It is clear that what you've summarised is what conservative commentators are trying to accomplish with this being a dog-whistle, so I do think it's valuable to include the language because that's what's being used in the news and sources . MicrobiologyMarcus ( talk ) 14:00, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I understand Reywas92's frustration but I can't agree with this argument for renaming. First up, we have to call things by what they are actually called, per WP:COMMONNAME , even when those names are blatant misnomers. Secondly, we want to help our readers to find the right article as easily as possible. If they hear somebody talking about the "parental rights movement", think it sounds confusing, and decide to look it up on Wikipedia then we want them to find the information they want either in the place that they expect to find it or redirected from there. It is not for us to impose our own name on it. Of course, it would be different if there already was a more neutral alternative name or term, as with "Pro-Life" redirecting to Anti-abortion movements. I think that is what people are thinking when they argue for folding this into those other articles. It is an arguable point but I don't think they map exactly enough for this to be a good idea. Particularly if it is true that this movement is not exclusively anti-LGBT and that is has roots going back a few decades, this would seem to be separate from, although unarguably related to, those other topics. So, unless there is a better name that actually satisfies WP:COMMONNAME, I think we are stuck with the current name. -- DanielRigal ( talk ) 15:29, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Actually now reading the google scholar link that Zenomonoz linked further up about Parental Rights movement from 2005 - it looks like this was a totally different and entirely unrelated issue that has absolutely no overlap with the current dogwhistle use of the term in current politics, which means we are entering ambiguous article title and content territory, plus then we should examine whether there is any link really, or just a reuse of the same term that was used and in that case, it does still look like the modern discourse is entirely anti-LGBT. So this article then has to be completely re-written to talk about that movement from 2005 and then the modern re-use of the term, but for entirely different grounds if it wants to discuss the term and not just current events. Raladic ( talk ) 05:18, 16 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . This modern movement is not just in the United States, and it's not just anti-LGBTQ. A merge to any of the pages mentioned above would be inapposite. The article should be expanded to cover the ways in which parental rights advocates are seeking to restrict teaching in schools about racism, white supremacy, and sexism. A note to those looking for more sources: though our titles are drawing a distinction between the Parents' rights movement , focused on parental custody, and this article, focused on schools, many sources about the school-related movement are using the term "parents' rights". Firefangledfeathers ( talk / contribs ) 13:53, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I've expanded the article to add more on the ways in which the parental rights movement has pushed changes that have nothing to do with anti-LGBTQ sentiment. There is much more to be added, but the article already now talks about anti-sex-ed, anti-DEI, anti-"CRT" (the boogeyman CRT, not the real deal), and anti-antiracist work by those who say they are fighting for "parental rights" or "parents' rights". I don't think supporters of a merge have grappled enough with how distinct this topic is from the anti-LGBTQ movements. To frame it in WP:MERGE terms, a merge is inappropriate because "The topics are discrete subjects warranting their own articles, with each meeting the General Notability Guidelines". Firefangledfeathers ( talk / contribs ) 14:50, 21 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States . This should NOT be its own page.

I would also refer you to WP:WHATABOUT as you keep bringing up Canada as a reason against anyone who suggested a merge, it is not a valid reason to prevent a merge, instead we find a consensus to roll it into the article there or make a separate article for it. Raladic ( talk ) 15:18, 15 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That is either a misrepresentation of OTHERSTUFF, an essay which I have referred many other users to before, or of my comments. I am not saying "this article should be kept because article X exists." I am saying, "this article contains X cited content on a discrete subject, therefore a merge is inappropriate per WP:NOMERGE ." I'll also go further and say that the improvements made to the article over the last day have demonstrated that this topic passes GNG on its own, supporting the NOMERGE argument. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 03:17, 16 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] This isn't really a policy based response.

I'm sufficiently convinced this is a separate (though arguably related) topic to 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States and the rest of the articles mentioned by nominator. 3 reasons for this: a) the article has a distinct focus on a notable international political phenomenon of parents pushing for what they deem 'parental rights', which is separate from any broader anti-LGBT movement in the United States. b) Said phenomenon is labelled and discussed as a distinct movement by reliable news and sources . c) it exists outside of the US and this is supported by good sources - I would say the international coverage needs to be expanded but deleting this article would only further the US-centric bias. I'm not convinced by those above who say that international occurrences of the movement are simply imitating the US, as this doesn't seem to be supported by sources and indeed reflects a US-bias itself. Tomorrow and tomorrow ( talk ) 07:22, 19 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note - Something I had not realised earlier, is that this article has only been in mainspace existence for a week. We cannot possibly make a fair judgement about the notability of a topic based on an article that is still under construction and by no means a complete covering of the topic. I strongly encourage all editors to do some off wiki research and read some sources before they make calls such as This is already covered in 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States in much greater context . Tomorrow and tomorrow ( talk ) 08:03, 19 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If kept, I think the scope would need to be expanded because "parental rights" is deemed to apply to many things other than children being trans. I don't think that the specific anti-trans parent movement should exist separate from other pages about anti-trans movements because I doubt that is actually a separate topic, and risks becoming a POVFORK. ( t · c ) buidhe 14:19, 19 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Buidhe This is similar to what was said above ( it's not just anti-LGBTQ. A merge to any of the pages mentioned above would be inapposite. The article should be expanded to cover the ways in which parental rights advocates are seeking to restrict teaching in schools about racism, white supremacy, and sexism ) and I agree. The page just needs time to be expanded and improved, it's too soon for a deletion on what is a promising start to an article about a notable topic. Tomorrow and tomorrow ( talk ) 07:07, 20 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - Another article that wasn't pointed out before that I think this article is actually much more of a POVFORK/ WP:WHITEWASH of is Anti-gender movement . A lot of what this article is currently trying to convey either is or can be covered in that article. I have adjusted my vote and struck comments accordingly as that article is not regional in scope. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 17:10, 19 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That is indeed a good find and is already covering the specific essence that the current article is covering, but Anti-gender movement is already covering it much more broadly, including in timeline and how that term as used there also was used much more broadly. I support your suggestion for a merge to Anti-gender movement (and subsequent redirect) with a subsection added there for the US/Canada "Parental Right" (which are really a whitewash term used to mask their anti-gender movement as outlined in that article. Raladic ( talk ) 02:10, 20 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm not convinced they are talking about the same thing. The anti-gender movement article has literally no results for "parents" or "Parental rights" and only has minor discussion of schools at all. Instead the anti-gender movement seems to be about an intellectual/moral dispute focusing on a perceived threat of gender ideology and its influence on (non-school) government instutions. I can see how they might seem related, and indeed may well be related, but for us to claim that the two movements are in fact the same thing without any sources linking the two would be a classic example of WP:SYNTH . Strongly object to this proposed merge. Tomorrow and tomorrow ( talk ) 07:00, 20 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - I found one more article that has topic overlap with the article here - Transgender genocide which in the United States section calls out with some references to scholars including a report by Yale School of Medicine and WPATH that have called out that some of the current "movements for rights" which are really Healthcare bans are just veiled acts amounting to Genocide "Anti-transgender health care legislation is not about protections for children but about eliminating transgender persons on a micro and macro scale." - this just further highlights the continued attempts to WP:WHITEWASH this under the pretense of a movement, but we should not give it more legitacy, but rather consider redirect into one of the many relevant articles cited in this Afd that do call it out for what it is. Raladic ( talk ) 05:17, 21 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Just think it's essential to note that WP:WHITEWASH is about editors on Wikipedia trying to whitewash events, it is most certainly not an instruction to go against WP:COMMONNAME or reliable sources so that we [do] not give it more legitacy . Tomorrow and tomorrow ( talk ) 05:24, 21 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] In this case it is far right politicians trying to whitewash a term to hide the true agenda, this may actually be something that may require a broader RfC - when should we deviate from WP:COMMONNAME when it may appear to give legitimacy to active harm WP:ADVOCACY , especially when like in this case it may cause active harm that will lead to people losing access to life saving Healthcare as documented by the professional medical community, so I think WP:IGNOREALL could apply here to get past the commonname policy. Raladic ( talk ) 05:40, 21 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Raladic , firstly I want to say I'm taking this very seriously and I agree that Wikipedia's first duty is to its readers (including their health and wellbeing). That said, I completely fail to see how having this article, as it currently is will will lead to people losing access to life saving Healthcare . You may not like this political movement, you may consider it far right politicians trying to whitewash a term to hide the true agenda but to say that Wikipedia should not cover it in line with RS sources because that may "legitimise" it is (I mean this in the nicest way possible, as I genuinely think you mean well) POV-pushing and censorship, neither of which are allowed on Wikipedia. Tomorrow and tomorrow ( talk ) 06:12, 21 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: This subject still needs some discussion. We title articles the terms used by reliable souces, whatever that might be.

Nate • ( chatter ) 19:35, 22 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm sympathetic to this view. I think a post-AfD requested move discussion would be worthwhile, though it would be nice to talk through some options at the talk page first. I wasn't looking for this specifically, so I couldn't tell you which sources exactly, but many of those I've encountered have cast doubt on the idea that it's "parents' rights" that are really at the heart of this wave of activism. It's hard to know if there's a common-ish name out there that we could use as a replacement, but I wouldn't be surprised. Firefangledfeathers ( talk / contribs ) 19:42, 22 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Not to get too into a RM discussion pre-emptively, but I don't think that a name change is correct at this time. While I agree that this isn't really a parent's rights movement and that it's become more of a dog-whistle, I do believe that this is the WP:COMMONNAME , at least for now, and that to the casual reader looking for more information, they are better served to land on this page than a redirect to a more broad article but vague and doesn't address the modern use of the term and the movement it describes. But I agree, that any potential of this would be better suited for a talk page discussion for consensus building. MicrobiologyMarcus ( talk ) 16:16, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If by your admission, this isn't actually a movement but a dog whistle, then the article as it stands has he be rewritten entirely if it were to stand on its own as it does not make this clear at all - it pretends to be a real movement, whereas many medical experts have made it clear that it isn't, which this article doesn't mention at all, but is mentioned on Transgender genocide as I had already pointed out further above. It just mentions some description from the Winnipeg Free press and Salon (and it throwing shade at salon in the article itself), so the article is very clearly trying to show a slanted WP:POVFORK instead of accurately showing the strong opposition to the term as it stands. The merge should be discussed here and now as a WP:ATD-M as Wikipedia works on consensus and many people have brought up the merge in this Afd, so there is no point to start another disjointed discussion outside of this. Raladic ( talk ) 14:53, 28 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If by your admission, this isn't actually a movement but a dog whistle, Sorry, that's not what I meant. It absolutely has become a movement, per the sources on the article. What I've said (albeit, maybe poorly), and as the article has been written, is that the movement isn't about parent's rights as so far as an anti-trans movement. Not to jump ahead in my argument then, but then the situation is to still include the term Parental Rights in the lead. then the article as it stands has he be rewritten entirely if it were to stand on its own as it does not make this clear at all - it pretends to be a real movement, If that's the case, then I think the proper course of action would be to follow the same style as Pro life and include Parental Rights Movement in the lead after a rename and have a redirect, but I have to say I disagree on your assessment. Parental Rights movement is the common name and people are using it to describe the movement and goals as laid out in the article. I do think the article is clear on the harms done to trans youth; unless you're saying it isn't going far enough—if that's the case, then I find your arguments citing WP:POVFORK are unhelpful, without actually finding issues in the text. At this point, I want to take a step back and recognize that we're both involved here because we have the same goal: the betterment of Wikipedia. What I'm trying to get at, is that I believe there should be a location on Wikipedia for the term Parental Rights. The reason I made the article is because I noticed an increase in its usage (especially in Canada) and could not find a resource summarizing what the term parental rights meant by those who were using it, and how it was being used. What it is is a common term that people are using, and third parties looking to understand it more (the first thing the general public will do is go to Wikipedia) should be informed that it is an Anti-trans movement—as far as I can tell everyone here agrees with that. The problem I have with the aforementioned proposed merges, is that this exact use case—the notification to parents of their children's wishes to use pronouns that differ with their gender assigned at birth—presents (1) a distinct use case by those using the term, that (2) is prolific and sustained and has obviously become the common name, and (3) presents a distinct set of issues that, while related, differ from the other broad articles proposed as potential merges. Because of that, I have to say that I think that this is an acceptable version of Wikipedia:Content forking and not specifically WP:POVFORK Thanks for hearing me out and not biting; I appreciate your discussion on the matter. MicrobiologyMarcus ( talk ) 18:47, 28 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yes, my point is that the article does not make it clear enough and seems to trivialize some of the issues including the ommission in the entire lead of gender affirming care bans created under the pretense of "Parental rights" and only talks about pronoun use. What Republican politicians are doing under the banner of "Parental rights" is restricting access to life saving health care. Even the GOP debate just yesterday made it clear that this isn't a new movement but a dog-whistle and is there to restrict access to life saving Healthcare - [62] . The fact that restricting health care access like this will lead to increase deaths is proven by medical science including this recent study - [63] . Again, that is why this could be discussed better within the context of which it is happening in one of the other articles, but if it were to stand as its own article, this needs to be much clearer. To make it clear that this attack on access happened even before the modern term use, here is an article from Forbes from 2021 on the issue, without the term, but the same issue - [64] . The point being, it has to be discussed in the greater context and it's effects, which is hard to do in this narrow POVFORK thst is only trying to talk about the modern term. We could follow your suggestion of doing the same as Pro life, in which case, merging this content to Anti-gender movement with a bolded alternative term of Parental Rights movement (and this redirecting there) would be fine and it can discuss how the modern term is used within the greater context of the anti-gender movement. Raladic ( talk ) 02:47, 29 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep: However people feel about this movement, it has received enough independent and significant coverage in secondary sources to warrant an article. WP:POVFORK is a fair argument, but this subject is not exclusively related to the pages mentioned. Any cleanup to remove unrelated content can occur outside of the AfD. Discussion regarding a possible name change can occur on the article talk page. User:Let'srun 03:47, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep This movement seems to be opposed to the teaching of both LBGTQ and Black Lives Matter/racial equity subject matter in public schools.

Veho Tech: However, none of the other sources are sufficient to be the second in the multiple required to meet SIRS . Most of them, both inside and out of the article, are the routine reprints of funding and expansion announcements that exist for almost any company that bothers issuing press releases. It's worth noting there are two articles cited (WSJ, The Technology That’s Helping Companies Thrive Amid the Supply-Chain Chaos ; Bloomberg, Couriers Snatch Toehold in Biggest Shake-Up of FedEx Era ) plus BusinessInsider's Gig labor could have challenged FedEx and UPS. Now it's making them stronger. mentioning the company in relation to the broader market, however they do not appear to address the company itself in sufficient detail to meet WP:CORPDEPTH . Unfortunately, I don't think there will be enough coverage to write an encyclopedic article per our current criteria. I do see potential for this to be redirected to Last mile (transportation)#Last mile technology platforms , or a similar article on the intersection of gig economy and that market (the latter of which not yet written, of course, but does appear possilikely to likely a notable topic), so that first redirect would be my proposal for now.

I am sorry, but [9] and [10] absolutely go above and beyond simply announcing funding, and they ARE independent sources, as they are written by authors not affiliated with the company for reliable sources with no connection to it.

Intellectual property policy: What the article calls "National IP policies"—such as patent and copyright terms—are very different from, for example, university IP licensing agreements and corporate transparency/trade secrets. There does not appear to be a good reason to conflate each of those distinct concepts in a single article. Moreover, those concepts are all dealt with more extensively in other articles, such as Technology transfer (for universities), Intellectual property (for broad policy considerations in forming a national/international IP regime), and Trade secrets .

In years past, I worked on intellectual property policies for a number of different kinds of institutions, and I am very comfortable saying that this is a notable concept that should be covered. With respect to the concept of "national IP policies", a distinction can be drawn between the intellectual property protections generally made available under national laws, and the policies of a national government regarding the use, licensure, or commitment to the public domain of its own content that would otherwise be subject to intellectual property protections. Some countries do claim copyright ownership, for example, over government decrees. BD2412 T 03:31, 8 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I think part of my issue is with the name of the article because, as we've both noted, there are distinctions in different kinds of IP policies; maybe one solution is moving the article to something like Institutional intellectual property policy ? voorts ( talk / contributions ) 17:17, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

The topic (an accidental drowning) fails notability requirements and is eligible to be reconsidered for exclusion. My own line on this is that if Nicola were (a) black, or (b) working class, or (c) male or (d) over 60 years old, then nobody would be interested in her and we would not be having this discussion.

Protests of 1968: They bear at most a family resemblance. (Indeed, one may cite an example of protests in the Soviet sphere and protests against the genocide in Mexico both being possibly anti-authoritarian. Perhaps the 2 case studies each may even have references to support the claim that they are anti-authoritarian. But to place them in the same article for that reason would be culpable of wp:synthesis .) Therefore, the link between the many protests lacks wp:notability . Wikipedia articles are not to be "Lists or repositories of loosely associated topics", because WP:NOTCATALOG . On top of that, this page is guilty of wp:crosscat between the 1968 events and protests. Finally, one may argue that the indiscriminate lumping of disparate Left-leaning movements together, which possibly fabricates in readers a artificial narrative of a 1960s' revival of the Left or ascent of New social movements be culpable of wp:advocacy - be it lauding or derogating (and raising fear) the disparate left-leaning New social movements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FatalSubjectivities ( talk • contribs ) 16:45, 17 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Oppose per 1968, Revolution in the World-System: Theses and Queries . ときさき くるみ not because they are easy , but because they are hard 11:59, 18 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Indeed, this JSTOR article has been written by two academics with wp:notability .

1912 Morris Harvey football team: Playing Notre Dame doesn't grant a team its own season article.

Let'srun ( talk ) 22:49, 11 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . Playing Notre Dame doesn't make it non-notable, either. This article, admittedly a stub, seems to be part of a series of articles about independent colleges' football seasons in 1912. Some articles in the series are obviously better-documented than others, but that doesn't mean that the smaller or lesser-known schools' seasons are non-notable. There are three independent, reliable sources, and presumably others could be found in newspapers that aren't available online. And given the subject—college football seasons—I'm reasonably sure that readers do want this information to be part of the encyclopedia. I see fifty page views over the last ninety days preceding this nomination (sixty-two now), and while that's not a lot, it's more than many "kept" articles about obscure, but technically notable topics get.

Would you mind closing these four and giving us one bundled proposal (or take it to the talk pages). Hobit ( talk ) 01:07, 14 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 Swords (suit) is specifically about the playing cards, whereas suit of swords is purely about cartomantic cards. They have different designs and uses with almost no crossover. The same is true of cups and goblets, batons and wands, coins and pentacles, etc. We have been slowly untangling the mess caused by combining them, but there is more to do. I agree the naming needs sorting out because the suit is called "swords" by both card players and occultists. So we could make it clear by calling them e.g. Foo (playing card suit) and Foo (cartomantic suit). In the other 3 cases, there are different names that can be used to distinguish them. HTH.

The Showdown (rugby union): Fails WP:NRIVALRY as again no significant coverage of the matches. In my opinion, not really suitable for an encyclopedic article as it's only really relevant to Saracens, and reads as WP:FANCRUFT . I suggested a redirect to a specific section on Saracens F.C. but was reverted. Rugbyfan22 ( talk ) 09:18, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sports , Rugby union , and England . Rugbyfan22 ( talk ) 09:18, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The nature of the article is wholly consistent with similar approved articles linked to Premiership Rugby , including The Big Game (rugby union) , London Double Header and Slater Cup - none of which the OP has raised an objection to regarding WP:GNG . By the logic spelt out here, The Big Game (rugby union) should be considered WP:FANCRUFT , as it is only really relevant to Harlequin F.C. , and Slater Cup is only really relevant to Leicester Tigers and Gloucester Rugby , nor would that meet the threshold of WP:NRIVALRY , as it is not even a year old. Indeed, the coverage of the matches detailed in this article is consistent with, and no less significant, than the matches detailed in these other three articles which, again, the OP has raised no objection to. Therefore, the OP's consideration for what qualifies as notable or significant would seem to be fairly selective, arbitrary and inconsistent with the aforementioned approved articles. If necessary, I would be happy to update this article with further citations to demonstrate the extent of the coverage although, to reiterate, this would be going above and beyond what has already been accepted for both The Big Game (rugby union) and Slater Cup . Lastly, the OP's final statement is not quite accurate - as the article's revision history shows, their action was less a suggestion, and more a blanket removal of the article's entire contents without any discussion. I would respectfully suggest refraining from making such unilateral decisions in future, in cases where there is no clearly no consensus for such an action. House of Laughs ( talk ) 10:18, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep: For all of the reasons outlined in the above reply, and with no objections having been lodged by anyone else, I propose keeping the article, closing this discussion and removing the WP:AfD in the next 24 hours. To further highlight the OP's inconsistent approach to WP:GNG between this article and other approved Premiership Rugby related articles, I cite The Clash (rugby union) , which concerns an event that lasted just three years, relates to Bath Rugby only, and the article itself has, at most, 2 meaningful citations. That article, along with The Big Game (rugby union) and Slater Cup , would all be nominated for deletion if we were to follow the OP's interpretation of WP:GNG , WP:NRIVALRY and WP:FANCRUFT in this AfD nomination. Yet, all 3 articles have been widely accepted for years - including by the OP themselves, who previously contributed to The Clash (rugby union) without raising any of the same objections. The OP's nomination of this article for deletion therefore does not seem to be based on WP:GNG , but rather on their personal views on specific clubs. House of Laughs ( talk ) 10:02, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] There is far more GNG related coverage for The Big Game than there is for The Showdown, given its longevity over a period of time. Also the Slater Cup features the same two sides each fixture, and there is coverage of the rivalry between the two sides. Dependent on the outcome of this AfD I will then consider nominations/redirecting for The Clash as I'm not seeing much in relation to that one, but given we have this AfD in process, and the lack of engagement rugby union AfDs get at the moment, another very similar AfD at the same time isn't in the best interests of other editors at this time, given that the outcome of this AfD will likely effect that one. Rugbyfan22 ( talk ) 10:21, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Longevity was clearly not the defining factor for either The Big Game (rugby union) , Slater Cup or The Clash (rugby union) to qualify for WP:GNG or WP:NRIVALRY . The article for The Big Game was created and reviewed in 2011, when the event was less than 2 years old, and the event has never consistently featured the same 2 teams. Meanwhile, the Slater Cup, as both an event and a rivalry, has existed for all of 6 months. As far as the coverage for each event goes, any cursory Google search would show that both the breadth and the amount of coverage of all of these showpiece event games each year is basically identical (a fact that is borne out in the citations within all of these articles, which frequently draw from the same sources). Given that each of these articles concern very similar annual showpiece event games within the same sports league, to so arbitrarily interpret them as notable or not notable, as this WP:AfD has done, is utterly bizarre. Finally, as a more general point, I think AfD nominations such as this one do nothing for the integrity of WP:GNG , and only serve to dissuade editors from contributing. House of Laughs ( talk ) 18:03, 17 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Updated - As an olive branch, and in the interest of resolving this matter quickly, I have consolidated all of the showpiece fixtures hosted by Saracens F.C. in Premiership Rugby into this article (although The Showdown branding began in 2020, the actual event dates back to 2009, and was branded as Derby Day for many years, with the majority of the fixtures against rivals Harlequin F.C. - all of which is now detailed and sourced within the updated article). As this brings The Showdown article even more in line with The Big Game (rugby union) article, and should finally put to bed any issues you had regarding WP:GNG and WP:NRIVALRY , I would politely request that you review the latest version, and please consider withdrawing the WP:AfD .

To highlight 3 sources that should satisfy the nominator's personal definition of WP:GNG and WP:NRIVALRY , I submit: [1] (Independent coverage on the profile of the two clubs as Premiership Rugby 's biggest rivalry) [2] (Independent source verifying this fixture's status as setting the world record for a rugby union club match attendance in 2015, which remains a Premiership record) [3] (Independent source verifying this fixture's status as setting highest viewership for a Premiership match in history in 2023, which remains a record) Also, in the interest of consistency, it is important to consider this article in the context of 4 similar, approved articles about other showpiece fixtures in Premiership Rugby – The Big Game (rugby union) , Slater Cup , London Double Header and The Clash (rugby union) – to which, I highlight the following: None of those 4 articles have required such an extensive test to prove their satisfaction of either WP:GNG or WP:NRIVALRY as this one; None of those 4 articles' current versions have anywhere near the level of citations and demonstration of coverage as this one; If we were to treat the nominator's definition of WP:GNG and WP:NRIVALRY in this AfD as gospel, and apply it consistently, all 4 of those articles would fail and would all be nominated for deletion – yet all 4 have been accepted for a long period of time. Therefore, it is clear that the nominator has not treated this article on The Showdown – which, to any objective observer, is extremely similar to those other 4 articles – with a consistent approach to WP:GNG . And, to put it in stark terms, if they were being consistent, either all of these articles are acceptable, or none of them are. Given the precedent set by the acceptance of those 4 similar articles over the course of many years, it is only logical that this article is treated the same.

I cannot see the Eurosport source and am not familiar with coverage of rugby union, so I am not confident, but it seems likely there's enough independent coverage in the sources to put together an article without requiring original research.

More in Foreign Policy , Africanews , the BBC , the Washington Post , DW , The Economist , The Guardian , Mail & Guardian , and more.

In my own WP:BEFORE I found and, together with ResonantDistortion have added, a number of sources which would appear to contribute to a WP:GNG claim. While the subject band did not appear to have chart success, to the extent that "single or album on any country's national music chart" or "record certified gold or higher" of WP:NBAND are not met, there does appear to be enough coverage to warrant retention on SIGCOV grounds. Certainly the coverage in music journalism sources (like Hot Press ) and general news sources (like the Irish Independent ) are contributory. In all honesty, some of the coverage is somewhat "passing" in nature, and I was therefore minded to frame my recommendation as a weak keep . I can't support outright deletion however...

[2] "Sazman - e - Demokratik- e - Nawin , the Neo - Democratic Organization of Afghanistan ( NDOA ) , was also founded in 1965.

Oregon State University College of Liberal Arts: The goal has been to provide articles for all of OSU's colleges over time, just as many other universities do on Wikipedia. Each of these articles has been growing with the additions from multiple writers - especially the Liberal Arts College article. Inside the article's talk page you will note that there have been no recent discussions about issues from anyone - although old and resolved issues still remain. Elkebvo placed, what I feel is a random and unnecessary, Request for Deletion (7/8/23) on this article due to the subject not being "notable". I, of course, couldn't disagree more and question how it is even possible to consider a major public university's college not "notable". There has been zero correspondence leading up to this notification and no history of abuse with this article. I am dumbfounded by the argument as a whole since hundreds of universities on Wikipedia have an article for their college of liberal arts, college of arts and letters and college of arts and sciences. Why is OSU's CLA article being singled out? Not a single sentence is duplicated on the parent article. From the "Not Notable" Wikipedia page: "avoid indiscriminate inclusion of topics" Are these "really" indiscriminate topics? Schools History Academics Student awards Budget cuts Expansion Notable alumni Notable faculty The whole "presumed" and "trivial" question is subjective, to say in the least. We could have the same debate over every single page on Wikipedia, which brings me back to why is this article being singled out with no precedential communication from Elkevbo or other Wikipedia editors. As I remember, all issues have been addressed up until this very random notification for this article. I am not the only writer for this article, but I am a regular contributor. Everything on this page is sourced and are well-known historical facts. If Wikipedia readers believed a source was not accurate, they would have provided a "Talk" comment over the last +2 years so it could be debated or addressed. I see no history of that. One of the issues we all have when writing an article about a university college is finding secondary sources. Mostly, because mainstream news rarely provides in-depth historical information about individual colleges within universities. In addition, many of the NP archives are paywalled. Does that make individual colleges less "notable?" Of course not, it does however make it more difficult to find secondary sources. I will admit that ALL university college pages are universally low on secondary sources. In most cases, the secondary sources used in the majority of these articles was a rewrite from a college press release. Is that really bad or make it "not notable"? Again, no. College press releases are routinely used as reliable information by all outlets and should be considered a highly reliable source of information by Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ludviggy ( talk • contribs ) 01:01, 10 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Ludviggy Keep( talk ) A "keep" argument would probably be most convincing to other editors if you could provide - here or in the article - reliable sources that clearly and explicitly discuss this college in sufficient detail to establish that it's independently notable .

ElKevbo ( talk ) 22:23, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Seems like a lot of material to merge back into the parent article. Will the other colleges such as Oregon State University College of Business be merged back as well upon review? There is a lot of WP:PRIMARY references but might be worth keeping or at least draftifying. - Indefensible ( talk ) 20:44, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I would not merge most of the material back into the parent article; much of it is unnecessarily detailed. My initial sense is that several of the other colleges meet WP:GNG as there are multiple, independent sources that explicitly discuss them. That's just not the case for this particular one (in my experience, colleges of art, science, or both typically don't have the same cohesion of mission and identity as other colleges that focus on a specific, cohesive discipline or set of closely related disciplines - that also means that many of them have not been the subject of focused inquiry and documentation hence they're often not independently notable). We should not expect all subunits of a notable organization, including many universities, to themselves be notable. ElKevbo ( talk ) 22:21, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The other 3 colleges do not have articles that are really any better in my opinion, it would either have to be all or none. If only this article gets deleted then it might be unfair discrimination against liberal arts. However merging all of that content from the 4 articles back into the parent article would be unwieldy, so I would probably just leave them and try cleaning them up at this point. - Indefensible ( talk ) 02:00, 17 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If there are other articles that should also be nominated for deletion that they should be nominated, too. "Wikipedia editors have written a long article using sources that are about other, related subjects" is not a good reason to keep an article. It's unfortunate that volunteers spent time on an article that could or should be deleted but that isn't a reason to keep that article. The notion of Wikipedia editors practicing "unfair discrimination against liberal arts" is silly. Other colleges tend to attract specific, focused attention in part because many programs outside of arts and sciences are programmatically accredited and that tends to attract media attention every _ years when accreditation is reviewed. Professional licensure rates - engineers, teachers, nurses, etc. - also tend to attract attention and generate focused media articles. Agricultural schools often have long histories tied to land grant acts, federal law, and state laws so they also tend to attract some focused attention (for example, at my current university, the "Master of the Grange" - the state's leading farmer - is an ex officio member of our board of trustees). ElKevbo ( talk ) 03:20, 17 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You should nominate the other colleges at OSU for deletion on the same grounds then in my opinion, I feel uncomfortable on principle voting to delete this when there would be a discrepancy in comparison with the other articles. Currently it seems like this article for the liberal arts has more coverage over the others, I do not see why it should be deleted and the others not. But frankly I would still just leave them, primary sources in some cases are valid and might be good enough. - Indefensible ( talk ) 01:10, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . It's a reasonable split from the main article, even if not strictly required. If the split was truly done too early, propose a merge on the Oregon State University talk page so editors focused on that article can evaluate in-depth instead of in a rushed AFD. In other words, it would be disruptive for the quality of the main article for this AFD to result in a merge. There are no major NPOV violations here, and the vast majority is verifiable, so, with respect to the nom, "unnecessarily detailed" does not seem like a reason for deletion. — siro χ o 23:20, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] How is it reasonable to split this information into a new article when only one source - a 3-page summary written for the subject itself - in the new article is actually about the subject? There doesn't seem to be nearly enough to meet WP:N or to write an article about the subject. That one editor has continued to expand the article by using references that are about the university or other subjects doesn't support the contention that the subject is notable. ElKevbo ( talk ) 00:27, 17 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per above. Okoslavia ( talk ) 07:30, 17 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete. The arguments presented that the article is well-distanced from the main article or otherwise properly sourced or well-written is missing the point. The notability of the subject needs to be presented, and as it stands much of the sources don't demonstrate that. In fact, the majority of the sources in the article seem to be primary, or exclusively local and connected with the College of the Liberal Arts. GuardianH ( talk ) 00:56, 18 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I'm seeing plenty of independent reliable sources cited in the article; I guess the question is whether coverage of e.g. the school of visual arts counts as coverage of the College of which it is a part. This is an issue on which the GNG is silent, and which can get into some weird metaphysical territory if one thinks about it too hard. But as a practical matter I don't really see why such coverage wouldn't count. Ultimately this is a "how should we break up this large blob of content" question rather than a "should we have any content on this at all" question. The notability guidelines can furnish some guidance there but following any set of rules too rigidly is a recipe for trouble. On the whole it seems to me that we are going to have a much more manageable set of articles if we use the college as the unit of coverage rather than having articles on any individual school, program or department that can clear the GNG (and that someone feels motivated to write) -- and much more manageable than trying to smoosh all coverage of the university into a single article. -- Visviva ( talk ) 02:27, 18 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) explicitly addresses this: "An organization is not notable merely because a notable person or event was associated with it. A corporation is not notable merely because it owns notable subsidiaries. The organization or corporation itself must have been discussed in reliable independent sources for it to be considered notable....This works the other way as well. An organization may be notable, but individual members (or groups of members) do not 'inherit' notability due to their membership. A corporation may be notable, but its subsidiaries do not 'inherit' notability from being owned by the corporation." ElKevbo ( talk ) 03:53, 18 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I mean, the language of INHERITORG pretty clearly doesn't contemplate this kind of situation, and was more about the abuse of corporate and product articles. But even if we're approaching this legalistically (which we really shouldn't ), then we have to consider that WP:NSCHOOL expressly bypasses NORG: All universities, colleges and schools [...] must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both (my emphasis). INHERITORG is part of NORG and is not part of the GNG, so (as long as this meets the GNG) INHERITORG does not apply. -- Visviva ( talk ) 05:30, 18 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] But it doesn't satisfy WP:GNG - there is only source that is substantively focused on this subject. (It's telling that (a) that one source is closely connected to the subject and (b) another editor has been working quite hard to improve this article and they haven't been able to find another source specifically focused on this subject. ) ElKevbo ( talk ) 11:38, 18 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: The consensus seems to be leaning towards keep, however, the nomination is being fiercely defended by the nom and I would like to see more discussion on his points and about the keep consensus. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, D u s t i *Let's talk! * 22:49, 23 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] As a quick follow up nearly two weeks after this nomination was made: Ludviggy has been working quite hard to improve the article and it currently has 102 sources. However, all of those sources either (a) only mention this college in passing or (b) were written by people who work for the university or college. Therefore, this article still fails WP:GNG . ElKevbo ( talk ) 00:00, 22 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I think the criteria Elkevbo is applying to this particular article is not standardized across Wikipedia. I think we all know most articles suffer from a lack of outside independent sources. There is no set number or ratio of "independent" source required by Wikipedia. Again, this is subjective. This is especially true for university college articles, which all suffer from a very high ratio of non-independent sourcing because the main sources, available online and tracking a university college history is generally the university itself. Does this really make it a bad source? No. The information I am sourcing is generally dates of events, names of programs and chairs of departments, which are not controversial or political. Major public universities aren't motivated to lie about the type of facts I use in this article. Why Elkevbo is so focused on deleting this particular university college article leads me to believe he is not an unbiased editor. What Elkevbo fails to mention is that most newspapers today are paywalled and this has a significant impact on a writer's ability to source historic information from independent sources online - especially historical information about public institutions with histories over 100 years. We writers do our very best to source a document like this with all the information that is still available online. Most of the original independent news articles for this topic are only partially available online from independent archives. Even still, I believe I have provided the necessary sources, many from a combination of independent archives and non-independent (but highly reliable university) sources, to fulfil Wikipedia's minimum criteria for notability. 50.35.127.4 ( talk ) 50.35.127.4 ( talk ) 02:37, 24 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Your accusations of bad faith are growing tiresome; cut it out. ElKevbo ( talk ) 02:04, 25 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep I do not agree with ElKevbo's position. Walt Yoder ( talk ) 02:18, 24 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment following relist: I fear I am not quite following the guideline-based argument above. It seems we all agree that INHERITORG is not part of the GNG and does not apply here per NSCHOOL. That means we are back to the ordinary English-language understanding of what it means for a source to cover something. I don't think anyone would dispute that coverage of the Whoville Arts District is also coverage of Whoville, or that coverage of some building's historic cupola is also coverage of the building, etc. Of course some part-whole relationships are so attenuated or obscure that they can't reasonably be counted in this way without slipping into OR, but I don't think the straightforward relationship of a college to its component schools and buildings falls into that category. Given the above, it seems plain that the sources already at hand meet the GNG, e.g. [9] , [10] , [11] . (This is not to say that I think we are obligated to cover the college as a whole rather than an assemblage of parts, but I am not persuaded that anything prohibits it, and it seems like better encyclopedic practice to me.) -- Visviva ( talk ) 01:10, 25 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I don't understand the reference to WP:NSCHOOL . It states: "All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both." It's not clear if it's intended to apply to colleges that are part of universities or only standalone colleges but I'll concede that it's plausible that it should apply to constituent colleges. Even if that is the case, the available sources do not satisfy WP:GNG or WP:ORG . GNG says that the topic must have "gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, and are not outside the scope of Wikipedia. We consider evidence from reliable and independent sources to gauge this attention." ORG says that the subject must have "been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability." The sources don't meet those criteria. this source is about a creative arts center, this source is about the university's history, and this source is about a couple of new majors at the university. In each of them - and all of the other sources in the article - the subject of the article, the college, is only mentioned in passing. I understand that it seems weird that a college at an accredited research university has not been the subject of significant documentation. But it's reality - some colleges simply have not had cohesive identities and missions such that they have lent themselves to scholarly study, internal navel gazing, media attention, and other forms of meaningful, focused documentation. Some colleges exist primarily or exclusively as a way to organize a bunch of academic units. There are several of those kinds of colleges at my university. They're not bad or dysfunctional organizations and nor is this college. But they don't meet our notability criteria. And frankly we'd have to really contort ourselves to piece together an article about them - just as editors are doing now for this college. If someone wants to propose that WP:ORG be amended to make colleges and equivalent constituent units of legitimate universities automatically notable, please do so. But until there is a change along those lines this college - and many others - don't meet our notability guidelines. (And if someone wants to just WP:IAR this, please do so explicitly - it's not an unreasonable position.)

Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 08:34, 23 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment we can agree that Jonathan Pageau is not world famous. At all. However within a specialist sphere of religious communities interested in orthodox and catholic art, as seen by treatments in various religious journals, the artist has received significant coverage. Hence the artist's thought and work is discussed in the following reliable sources: East, Brad (2024-05-08). "Digital Lectors for a Postliterate Age" . ChristianityToday.com . Retrieved 2024-06-24 . Brierley, Justin. "I saw Jordan Peterson at the O2 last night. He's asking all the right questions (a good part of which is about Pageau)" . Premier Christianity . Retrieved 2024-03-13 . Dreher, Rod (2024-03-02). "Jonathan Pageau: A Prophet Rises From Quebec and YouTube" . europeanconservative.com . Retrieved 2024-03-13 . Taylor, Darrick (2024-04-09). "Jordan Peterson and the Apocalypse" . Crisis Magazine . Retrieved 2024-05-21 . Carr, Kathleen. "Jonathan Pageau" . Catholic Art Institute . Retrieved 2024-03-13 . Barron, Bishop Robert (2021-10-13). "How to live a meaningful life" . The Catholic Voice . Retrieved 2024-05-21 . " 'Living Tradition' Symposium in Charleston, SC" . OrthoChristian.Com . Retrieved 2024-05-31 . And there are also primary sources that have been used in the current iteration of the article, but they are not needed to establish notability, rather they seem to be used for descriptive statements of facts. I believe from the above sources that it's established the subject is notable, albeit within a very particular field of endeavour. MatthewDalhousie ( talk ) 01:58, 24 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] One perspective is clear: while Pageau's outlook is primarily religious, much of what he has done is applicable to secular art as well. It is erroneous to characterize his impact as only 'religious' (personally, I find such characterization as typical of the non-NPOV shown by people hostile to religion). I found the concluding pages of his Snow White and the Widow Queen - a non-religious text, I might add - to be clever and original. More books in this series of fairy tales are still to be published. Yes, I can see where people might conclude that WP:TOOSOON might apply, but he already has a substantial published body of work - well, more substantial than my four unpublished books (ha!). Also, he has been interviewed over and over by and collaborated with people judged to be notable such as Jordan Peterson , Robert Barron , Paul Kingsnorth , and Gavin Ashenden : they think he is notable. Thank you for listening. Tfdavisatsnetnet ( talk ) 02:40, 24 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Nice to have you join in the discussion @ Tfdavisatsnetnet - I know you're strongly interested in this topic. To be fair to the administrators looking at the discussion here, they will only be interested in whether the subject of the article is notable, as seen by good secondary sources. However, you do make a valuable point here, in that known writers write about the subject at hand, so Rod Dreher writes about Jonathan Pageau and Robert Barron talks about (and talks with) Jonathan Pageau and Paul Kingsnorth writes about Jonathan Pageau , all of which would indicate, to me, that there is substantial coverage of the subject (while not being exactly world famous). MatthewDalhousie ( talk ) 03:13, 24 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think it comes down to: do YouTube videos count as much as printed material? If so, then Jonathan Pageau IS notable, despite the fact that the sources are primary and not secondary. Again, personally I find him to be far more notable than many others. Tfdavisatsnetnet ( talk ) 04:00, 24 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Don't think you need to point youtube videos. More relevant to point to places where known thinkers are writing about Jonathan Pageau, which certainly includes: Rod Dreher describing Jonathan Pageau as — for him, as a writer at least — one of the most important public intellectuals Robert Barton describing Jonathan Pageau as a leading thinker on meaning I don't know of an article by Jordan Peterson where he describes the significance of Pageau's work to him, but of course he does co-author a paper with Pageau here, which alone makes him significant, given that Peterson is notable . Still, ultimately, what makes Pageau notable is that he has received coverage from reliable sources in the area of religion like Christianity Today . MatthewDalhousie ( talk ) 00:08, 25 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] An update I did a comb through the article today, and removed material from the Orthodox Arts Journal as the subject is a member of the editorial team. Turns out everything from that source was found in better sources, which I've now added. So, the article now leans on: Several articles by Terry Mattingly , a subject matter specialist on religion in the United States, in particular "On Religion" published in the Daily Review , New telescopes, old question: Where is heaven? in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and "On Religion: Facing modern chaos, priests need old symbols and truths" in the Tahlequah Daily Press ' Christianity Today ' and its article Digital Lectors for a Postliterate Age by Brad East ' The American Conservative ', particularly its article "Portrait of the Artist as Iconographer: Searching for meaning in the postmodern wasteland" by Bradley Anderson The Gospel Coalition, especially its article "Christ and Consciousness" by Phil Cotnoir 'Institute of Public Affairs Review' "Liberalism to the Barricades, Again" by Scott Hargreaves . 76 (1): 34.

A book review of Pageau's work in the online poetry journal from 'Age of Muses' by David B. Gosselin The journal, 'Modern Age' and its piece from 2022 by Grayson Quay, "The Perils of Re-Enchantment: Beyond the end of materialism, G.K. Chesterton and Darren Aronofsky see nightmares: Modern Age". Acknowledging that that secondary sources like the above are what we use to settle WP:GNG I believe we now have the sources required, following the outline in such as are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject, as per WP:BASIC . When it comes to primary sources, following the guidance, only a few have been used and only with regards straightforward statements of facts, these include The piece "Jonathan Pageau on icons, political dehumanisation, and befriending Jordan Peterson" by the broadcaster Elizabeth Oldfield in 'Theos' The Greek online journal 'Antifono', and its 2022 article by Kornarou titled "Orthodoxy is the last stronghold of Christianity" In short, revisions and edits are concluded for now and I submit the article has been improved and reasonable concerns about the notability of the subject have been addressed. MatthewDalhousie ( talk ) 06:38, 28 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Having become well aware of Pageau through both the religious and public intellectual worlds and watched/listened to him on various platforms, I am very surprised that this article is marked for possible deletion.

In the article, Zhou Minlan discusses the relationship between the Nine Yin Manual, a fictional martial arts manual from the Legend of the Condor Heroes novels, and the principles of Chinese medicine. He argues that the Nine Yin Manual can be seen as a metaphor for the principles of Chinese medicine, particularly the concept of a combination of herbs. He begins by discussing the history and content of the Nine Yin Manual. He notes that the manual is divided into two parts: the internal martial arts and the external martial arts. The article argues that the Nine Yin Manual can be seen as a valuable resource for understanding the principles of Chinese medicine. 李连杰亲临现场,《九阴真经》全球首届武侠电竞大赛收官 - The inaugural "Nine Yin Manual" Global Wuxia Esports Tournament is named to honor the Nine Yin Manual in Jing Yong’s novel. Tencent Games and Perfect World co-hosted the tournament. The opening ceremony saw the presence of renowned martial arts star Jet Li . The Study of Martial Arts Secret Books on Jin Yong Novel Edition Correction: "Jiuyin-zhen-jing" as The Main Example is a scholarly article by Chen Junhong, published in Chinese Literature World in 2012. The article discussed the importance of the Nine Yin Manual with other manuals such as Jade Maiden's Heart Sutra, Wu Mu's Legacy, Sunflower Manual, and Six Yang Palm. That stated, "In Jin Yong's early works, particularly Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Return of the Condor Heroes, the manuals are often epitomized by the "Nine Yin Manual". This comprehensive text encompasses various aspects of martial arts, including internal and external skills, weaponry, light body techniques, and hidden weapons. Protagonists like Guo Jing and Yang Guo owe their advancements in martial prowess to studying this manual. " The article 道"的阐释与追寻——《射雕英雄传》的原型解读 (The Interpretation and Pursuit of "Dao"—The Prototype Interpretation of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes") is a critical essay by Chinese scholar Li Xiaoping published in the Journal of the Gansu Institute of Education. The essay explores the theme of "dao" (道, the Way) in Jin Yong's martial arts novel and the Nine Yin Manual. The book 武俠小說話古今 discusses the close relationship between the "九陰真經" (Jiuyin Zhenjing) and the "道德經" (Tao Te Ching). (Page 68) The Nine Yin True Scripture is closely related to the Dao De Jing. The Nine Yin True Scripture was written by Huang Shang of the Northern Song Dynasty after he had read all the Daoist books in the world and comprehended the true meaning of martial arts. The first line of the scripture, "The way of heaven is to subtract from the excess and supplement the deficiency; therefore, the weak and the insufficient can overcome the strong and the excessive," is the same as the meaning of the Dao De Jing by Laozi. It can be said that the Dao De Jing is the mother of the Nine Yin True Scripture. (Page 100) Yang Kang, who was obsessed with the Nine Yin True Scripture, became insane and a madman, but his martial arts became even more powerful. Even the combined efforts of Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi were not his match. Another person who is astonishing is Wuqing, the leader of the Four Constables. The book says that this person has an empty abdomen, and his legs are all missing. He has neither internal energy nor martial arts, but his lightness skills are superb and his hidden weapons are the best in the world. I wonder how he practiced these light skills and hidden weapons. (Page 146) The Nine Yin True Scripture, the Northern Divine Art, and the Empty-Void Fist are all closely related to the teachings of Laozi and Zhuangzi. In his novels, he often quoted Buddhist scriptures and verses, and he was not just a martial artist who knew how to fight. The book Discussing Martial Arts and Analyzing Swords by Hong Zhenkuai, 2007, discusses the significance of the "Jiuyin Zhenjing" in Jin Yong's novels, particularly in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," "The Return of the Condor Heroes," and "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils." "Jiuyin Zhenjing" is portrayed as a pivotal element, influencing major events in these novels. Page 216 In his book "The True and False Classics: The Phenomenon of Martial Arts Manuals in Martial Arts Novels," Hong Zhenkuai argues that the most famous martial arts manual in Jin Yong's novels is the Nine Yin True Scripture. The major events of Jin Yong's best novels, including The Legend of the Condor Heroes, The Return of the Condor Heroes, and The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, were all caused by the Nine Yin True Scripture. The Nine Yin True Scripture is a powerful and mysterious manual that has been passed down for generations. Page 222 The Nine Yin True Scripture was created by a Daoist monk named Huang Shang in the Northern Song Dynasty. It was hidden in a secret location for many years, but it suddenly appeared in the world one day. The appearance of the Nine Yin True Scripture caused a great stir in the martial arts world. Many people wanted to possess the manual, including the leaders of the major martial arts sects. Page 227 The first Huashan Sword Meeting was held to determine who would be the rightful owner of the Nine Yin True Scripture. The winner of the meeting would be the one who could defeat all the other participants. In the end, the meeting was won by Wang Chongyang, the founder of the Quanzhen sect. Hong Zhenkuai argues that the Nine Yin True Scripture should have been kept by Wang Chongyang. He believes that giving the manual to anyone else would have led to a change in the cultural and religious beliefs of the martial arts world. This is evident in the effects that the Nine Yin True Scripture had on those who practiced it. Guo Jing, who learned the manual from Wang Chongyang, became a powerful and righteous warrior. However, Yang Kang, who also learned the manual, became a ruthless and ambitious man. 1.47.133.86 ( talk ) 12:57, 18 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per the above sources provided by 1.47.133.86.

The sources are in the front: 2 infoworld, the register, and analytics india magazine. As far as I can tell they are all independent, reliable, and cover the language in depth, as required for WP:GNG . The fact that infoworld wrote about it again shows there is also WP:SUSTAINED coverage. There is more coverage too, they're just blogs and stuff that's not really reliable. But what is there seems sufficient, and I'm sure if something interesting happens, e.g. it goes out of beta, there will be another round of news coverage, allowing improvements in the article's tone and quality to make it less hype-y. Mathnerd314159 ( talk ) 17:57, 6 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I concur with @ Mathnerd314159 . A quick news search of "Mojo programming language" will show a number of reliable sources including Medium, Adafruit, and yahoo! finance. Additionally, the project lead for Mojo, Chris Lattner , is the creator of several widely used projects including the LLVM , Clang , and MLIR (co-founder) compiler frameworks, as well as Swift , Apple's de facto programming language. If Lattner's record holds, Mojo has a high likelihood of being widely adopted among machine-learning researchers and systems developers alike once it is released to the public. I will look into revising the page to reflect the wider range of sources available.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Complex / Rational 18:23, 13 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep . Even treating this as a corporate product (which I agree is the best approach at this stage), this seems to meet WP:CORPDEPTH based on the InfoWorld and Analytics India articles. Both appear to provide hundreds of words of in-depth independent analysis that provides source material for a decent article, or as CORPDEPTH puts it they make[] it possible to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub . This in-depth review from The New Stack , a source I'm not familiar with but which is cited in a number of Wikipedia articles, also seems fine. At least on the surface all three of these appear to meet WP:SIRS . And there's certainly nothing surprising about such an initiative attracting this level of attention in the current environment. That said, if there are genuine and substantial problems with the sources, I'd suggest merging to Chris Lattner#Modular and Mojo . -- Visviva ( talk ) 05:37, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm a skeptical of the independence of Analytics India source due to their "branded content" program: [5] "Syndicated brand material or custom featured stories are great ways to share your viewpoint." I'm very skeptical of The New Stack , they seem to be the "journalism" arm of a tech investment firm: [6] [7] . And the author is referred to as a developer marketing writer [8] Currently the only source I trust is InfoWorld, and to be fair, it's a good article. — siro χ o 05:59, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I hadn't seen WP:CORPDEPTH , but looking at it now there is a line about discounting "any material that is substantially based on press releases ( churnalism ), even if published by independent sources". The register article is substantially based on quoting the Modular blog post announcing Mojo and the non-independent fast.ai article, so I think would count as churnalism. And maybe the first infoworld article, it doesn't cite any sources and the talking points ("Full compatibility", "low-level control", etc.) are suspiciously similar to the blog post. But I think the Analytics India is independent - the author is on the staff, not a contributor, so it's not syndicated material, and the comparison with Julia seems out of place for a corporate piece. And the second infoworld article seems like a legitimate "I read Mojo's documentation" kind of piece. I did see the New Stack article but I think it's a contributed article (as described in [9] ), as the author is not listed on the staff , (although, she has many more posts than 1 per 3 months, so maybe she does have a close relationship with TNS?). But, regardless, from the colloquial language like "Advertising, amirite?" I don't think it went through much of an editorial review, let alone fact-checking like a reputable news source. I think it just counts as a blog post hence unreliable. So that leaves us at 2 reliable sources. I like the merging idea, certainly in this discussion Zramsey11's primary argument for notability was that the team is led by Chris Lattner and he has a good track record of releasing languages, so discussing Mojo in the context of Chris Lattner seems warranted. Mathnerd314159 ( talk ) 16:35, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak Merge to Chris Lattner#Modular and Mojo . I agree with other participants that Infoworld is IMO SIGCOV by GNG standards (though I'm neutral on whether it meets the mark using the stricter corporate product standards) and is a RS. However, I'm not especially convinced by the other sources. NewStack has an about us page but no clear editorial policies and the author does not appear to be a subject-matter-expert ( developer marketing writer is very questionable), so I don't think it's a reliable source. Likewise, Analytics India lacks a clear editorial process and the branded content program and other info in the abouts/advertising section doesn't give me much confidence. I would be more inclined to think it's reliable had there been clear subject-matter-expertise among its stuff or widespread USEBYOTHERS that I'm not seeing here, though I am not 100% sure whether this is unreliable or not as I'm not especially familiar with Indian technology-related sources. Otherwise, my search on Google mainly found blogs and developer sites that doesn't seem to meet the requirements of GNG or NPRODUCT , so to me (albeit weakly) this doesn't meet GNG. However, there's some sourced info from RS (Infoworld) that would warrant a merge/redirect to Chris Lattner#Modular and Mojo as an ATD.

The article could definitely be expanded, but it does pass notability guidelines at this point in time. You can always try to make the guidelines more strict, but I don't know that there would be consensus in making them so strict that having 2+ notable films wouldn't give notability to a director. To be fair, I think I know where you're coming from. However keep in mind that Wikipedia isn't limited to the same things that say, Brittanica would be. There are no page limits and we haven't been given any sort of austere limits on server space. Also keep in mind that what is considered to be useful or encyclopedic is kind of dependent on the individual. A page like this may not be helpful for you or I beyond entertainment value, but someone writing an article or book about 90s films could find it useful.

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 10:47, 13 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Being in the list of a 30 people for a region doesn't mean we have to create an article for each of them. No, we do not have articles for each of them. The nom seems to be focused on the subject rather than individual. Regardless what they're known for, if they receive enough notable coverage, they are notable. And this person most definitely passes GNG regardless of the causes. It's not limited to a one-off event (the Forbes list) but sustained coverage exist for this individual. No independent notability other than being a YouTuber That's the most illogical rationale I've ever seen on an AFD nom. We have thousands of biographies on YouTubers. Since when, YouTubers aren't notable solely based on the fact that they are YouTubers? It all comes down to coverage, if they fulfill the notability criteria, they are notable. And even if taking this fallacy into consideration just for the sake of it, this person has received coverage for other ventures outside their digital content creation on YouTube. YouTube contributed to their initial fame but from then on she has received coverage for other activities such as vlogs on Facebook or media collaborations, UNICEF activities, writing, singing, modeling, etc. X ( talk ) 21:01, 13 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ AlbeitPK , I'm inviting you to do a complete source analysis.

As a friendly advice, I'd urge you to spend more time on article creation and expansion before hopping onto AFD. Familiarize yourself with the policies and when you get a good grip you may participate in these spaces. Albeit being largely primary, the Ice Today piece alone is a clear indication of notability. And independent in-depth coverage do exist. Sources are available in Bengali exist as well, all of which are not included in the article, but I'll be happy to list them if one asks. X ( talk ) 21:07, 13 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep. Source analysis: This is essentially just a paragaph mentioning she posted a video. Daily Star 30-under-30 #1 has a good paragraph describing her A short interview with a little more significant commentary Daily Sun 30-under-30 article doesn't say much other than republishing the announcement An entire article on her , which is probably sourced from an interview, but the newspaper is the one making statements so I think it's valid. Another 4 good paragraphs in the Forbes list BBC Bengali mention in review of Facebook influencers , only a little but it is there More Daily Star coverage under being a 30-under-30 winner Article on her , though whether the Vanity Star is a reliable source I don't know The interview mentioned , which is very long but primary. Good for the article, but probably doesn't establish notability (but the other sources probably do) Short article Plus: A full 12-ish-paragraph article reviewing her book and her Another 12-ish-paragraph one disagreeing with the first one So, while a lot of the coverage is just tiny 5-sentence mentions, she does seem to be notable (according to these things) in Bengali online media. The book and the popularity probably push her over "random youtuber", and I think the last two sources + the interview + the forbes list and associated sources all together meet the significant coverage criteria. Mrfoogles ( talk ) 00:54, 14 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for this. Yes, almost all the sources that discusses her starts with something like "Famous social media personality" or "Popular content creator", etc. She also has been the subject of at least 5 full length talk show interviews by the countries largest media Prothom Alo alone. They also dedicated entire episodes of shows on her lifestyle (one about "What's Raba Khan shopping this Eid"). And numerous national and international magazine features. Everything combined speaks for her notability. It appears the nominator is an inexperienced editor, hence they do not have a good grasp over Wiki notability guidelines.

Furthermore, the writeup in a year-end list by Anna Wiener at Longreads seems like editorial content. Would this summary at NPR count as secondary comment?

Mary Lou Allison Gardner Little: Could possibly be merged, but I don't think that will accomplish class goals, so we're here. Star Mississippi 22:10, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People and Women . Star Mississippi 22:10, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Ian (Wiki Ed) and Helaine (Wiki Ed) : as you apper to be working with this class. Can you help? Star Mississippi 22:11, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Little is mentioned as a Sigma Gamma Rho founder in The AJC in 2022, and her obituary is published by the LAT in 1992. A Butler University archive description states she "was one of the seven founding members of Sigma Gamma Rho and is considered the sorority's primary founder." Local news reports Butler University has a monument to the founders; the school paper reported honorary degrees for the founders in 2022; EBONY also reports this along with other historical events for the sorority. Beccaynr ( talk ) 22:51, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That's part of why I think she should be merged. One of the founders is of significant history, but I don't think it's enough for standalone. Star Mississippi 23:06, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I haven't accessed the WP Library yet to check the Journal of Southern History reference, but Gregory S. Parks and Caryn Neumann, Lifting as They Climb: Race, Sorority, and African American Uplift in the 20th Century , 27 Hastings Women's L.J. 109 (2016) includes biographical information for Little (along with other founders) in fn 13; the law review could also support content in the Sigma Gamma Rho and Zeta Phi Beta articles. From my view, it seems possible to create a Founders section in the Sigma Gamma Rho article (perhaps as a subsection in the History section), with biographies of the founders, and Little listed first based on her being considered the primary founder, being listed first in a variety of sources, and having a sorority award named after her. Beccaynr ( talk ) 00:49, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Would make total sense to me. I don't know about the sorority award or honoree degrees, but that could be handled editorially. I guess my question is what these students are expected to deliver to meet their assignment. Of course folks could find more , I'm just saying what if/do they need a full "article" for their professors, which is where I hope Wiki Ed folks can help Star Mississippi 02:53, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] A book now generally cited in the article, Black Greek-letter Organizations in the Twenty-First Century (University of Kentucky Press, 2008) has a full page biography of Little at p. 127 (which notes Little wrote the sorority pledge) and at pp. 125 - 126 includes contextual history of the sorority (the chapter is titled "Seven Schoolteachers Challenge the Klan"), and at pp. 128 - 133, biographical information of other founders, as well as further context and history about the sorority at pp. 133 - 134. I would also like to hear from Wiki Ed folks, because I think there is potential for expansion at Sigma Gamma Rho that could make inclusion of concise biographies for Little and other founders WP:DUE per WP:BIO1E .

CT55555 ( talk ) 02:18, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to Sigma Gamma Rho as {{ R from founder }} until it is clear she has independent notability from the sorority's foundation. AngusW🐶🐶F ( bark • sniff ) 14:27, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Parks (cited in the article) includes a page length biography. McClure (also cited) notes that the sorority was her "brain child." Also see the sources provided by User:Beccaynr in the comment above. I think establishing one of the "divine nine" and having secondary sources stating that fact, is sufficient for notability. -- Jaireeodell ( talk ) 14:42, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] ( edit conflict ) Leaning merge per WP:PAGEDECIDE , which includes: When creating new content about a notable topic, editors should consider how best to help readers understand it. Often, understanding is best achieved by presenting the topic on a dedicated standalone page, but it is not required that we do so; at times it is better to cover a notable topic as part of a larger page about a broader topic, with more context (and doing so in no way disparages the importance of the topic). Our notability guideline is a broader consideration than WP:GNG / WP:BASIC , and includes context and what may best help readers. For this subject, she is known for her work with others to found the sorority, and secondary sources seem to present them as a group with similar depth of biographical information and context; for example, they have the same historical context, have been honored with a monument, and were awarded honorary degrees. While there are details that distinguish Little's role as a primary founder, drafter of the pledge, first president, etc, I think developing a Founders section or subsection in the main Sigma Gamma Rho article, along with adding relevant content to other parts of that article, provides the most contextual understanding of the topics, and per WP:SUMMARY , it may eventually make sense to create a standalone article for the founders, with a link and a summary paragraph in the main Sigma Gamma Rho article. For now, the content would first need to be developed to assess how to proceed. From my view, a permanent stub for Little is less helpful for readers than a redirect to an article with contextual significance. Beccaynr ( talk ) 15:01, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep ; subject was president and founder of a national organization still in existence. Article has been somewhat improved since nomination (has an image now). Penny Richards ( talk ) 16:08, 21 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep as notability has been established in the above discussion per WP:GNG , and because many editors have helped improve the article, which was in poor shape at the time it was nominated for deletion and was clearly moved into mainspace prematurely. The main debate now seems to be whether or not this article should be merged into Sigma Gamma Rho , or if it's deserving of a standalone article. In the past, I have been skeptical about whether sorority founders really deserve their own standalone Wikipedia articles, but in this particular case, this is a huge international sorority with a history of over 100 years, and the primary founder who was the first president, wrote the pledge, and has the biennial award named after her, whose founding story is significant in historical context and who remained involved in sorority activities through much of her life, seems justified. (And equally, that founding story and the biographical history of the founders is a big enough topic that trying to cram it all into the main sorority page would probably be disproportionate relative to the rest of the history of the sorority, which is significant.) That said, it is indeed the case that the original founders as a group are known as the "Seven Pearls of Sigma Gamma Rho" and have coverage as a group (although it seems Mary Lou Allison (Gardner) (Little) had the most and is also recognized separately), so I would not be opposed if other members of this WikiEd course at Allen University (or other editors) were to decide to expand this article to include all seven founders; at that point, we could use redirects with the individual founder names to redirect to the Seven Pearls of Sigma Gamma Rho page. But right now, that article content does not exist, so it's fine to keep the Mary Lou Allison (Gardner Little) article as is. Cc: Ian (Wiki Ed) and Helaine (Wiki Ed) and course instructor Kazooch .

Diesel (donkey): This subject was covered by just two news cycles: briefly and only locally in 2019 when the subject ran away, and another just recently when it was speculated that a donkey spotted in the wild was him. "Human mother", "human father"? "May have been Diesel"? Choice of language and speculation is something I would expect from a video short posted on The Dodo , but not a Wikipedia article. Simply a human-interest story to color the news cycle; not lasting, not important, not notable. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 08:03, 28 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Animal and California . ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 08:03, 28 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . There has been broad, international coverage of this animal, both significant and published in reliable, independent sources, meeting WP:GNG.

That the subject happens to be of human interest has no bearing on notability; mixed-species herding with elk, especially with animals captured during roundups, is rare and of ethological interest. Issues with phrasing have been addressed, though it should be noted that WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP . gobonobo + c 13:26, 28 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The article is full of speculation: "suspected that", "speculated that", "believed to have belonged", "appeared to have been", "suspect that", "might be". How does this level of uncertainty make for an encyclopedic article? There is nothing in the article about the rarity of "mixed-species herding with elk" (no content, no studies, no sources) which might have some interest. However if the real point was the oddity of donkeys herding with elk then the focus of the article wouldn't be "Diesel the donkey", but Diesel would be a side note in another article that did cover inter-species herding. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 10:45, 29 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Again, WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP .

"But it's just a donkey" doesn't change that. Cortador ( talk ) 21:07, 28 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Correction, the coverage spanned several years, was not sustained, but was only two news cycles: once when the donkey went missing, and once when it was spotted. Per WP:SUSTAINED , brief bursts of news coverage may not sufficiently demonstrate notability . This hardly passes for "significant coverage" as required by WP:GNG , which also cautions that significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article ... perhaps because it violates what Wikipedia is not (NOTNEWS). ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 10:45, 29 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That is an alarmingly disingenuous mischaracterization of the sourcing and a misreading of the guidelines. News cycles don't last for months at a time. News articles were written when Diesel went missing, again when search parties were formed to find him, again when he was seen on a trail camera, again when he was spotted in 2023, and again when he was spotted in 2024. Reading the references is part of WP:BEFORE . When I said dozens of references, I was being literal. Only the best 13 or so are included in the article, but every one of these is full-length, with multiple paragraphs devoted exclusively to the subject, clearly meeting WP:SIGCOV and surpassing WP:GNG . The anti-donkey sentiment here strikes me as WP:IDONTLIKEIT . gobonobo + c 14:39, 29 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Hey, I like donkeys. This has nothing to do with donkey hating.

I cant find it on any old USGS maps (although that's somewhat of a crapshoot because, you know, time and space and the historical record). But also this township plat map does not give me confidence that Isabel was ever a distinct settled place. I think at most Isabel (v Isabel Twp) was a crossroads or a road sign where people said they were from, but also it's hard to prove a negative and/or with rural locations the notability standards have to be a little more flexible IMHO. jengod ( talk ) 19:24, 20 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

Tanya Sarne: NO reliable sources Edit.pdf ( talk ) 07:49, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi there. I did look to increase the referencing substantially when a BLP flag was raised on 21.04.23, and spent some time looking at online sources for alternatives. I'm not sure what else can be done, certainly without recourse to paywalled news archives which you would not necessarily be able to verify. She has done a number of podcast appearances to promote the book, but I sense that wouldn't satisfy the standards you are seeking. Sarne is a significant figure in British fashion and in my view it would be better to have a page about her rather than no page. There was no Wiki page before this one was written. Iangreaves ( talk ) 08:29, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Looks like there's some discussion of Sarne in Style City: How London Became a Fashion Capital (2009) by Robert O'Byrne. Only one reliable source isn't enough to meet WP:GNG though, and I can't immediately find a second – can anyone else? Caeciliusinhorto-public ( talk ) 09:32, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi. I've luckily regained access to Newsbank, so I have been able to add a few contemporaneous press references to the main article just now. Could someone check and see if this is sufficient? Iangreaves ( talk ) 09:46, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for the Style City link. I have added a couple of references (though it does seem to rely on cuttings already accessed). Iangreaves ( talk ) 09:54, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Iangreaves : I've checked several of the newspaper sources, and they seem to be based on interviews with Sarne and are therefore not independent and don't count towards notability . It would be helpful if you could list here the best two or three sources which are all three of independent of Sarne, reliable , and in-depth. Caeciliusinhorto-public ( talk ) 11:01, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I think the difficulty here is that we are talking about a fashion designer who worked almost exclusively during the age of intensively PR-controlled coverage, so it is hard to see how an in-depth piece (other than a hatchet job or an obituary) would not rely on interviews with the subject. The tight controlling of an image was completely integral to the outward-facing work of a design company in this era, and fashion journalism is not generally in the habit of writing long company histories or hatchet pieces that would ensure notoriety if not notability. Sarne was not a controversial figure. I have used reviews or news reports to substantiate certain elements of the page, such as the buy out of Ghost, the launching of stores, and New York Fashion Week shows. (see notes 32, 38, 45) There are 358 results on Newsbank about her from 1989 onwards. The majority will be either short references (which verify certain claims in her memoir) or interviews. Iangreaves ( talk ) 11:28, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Have added a few more news sources to the page. It is now around 50% sources other than the memoir. Iangreaves ( talk ) 11:53, 14 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Have also added four citations for her awards. The notes referred to in my 11.28 message are now numbered 32, 39 and 46.

Pam D 08:18, 15 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That Bookseller source is just regurgitating the marketing spiel of Sarne's publisher; it's not independent. Loads of people get OBEs - I don't think it's a prestigious enough honour to count towards WP:ANYBIO . Is the BBC source a discussion of Sarne or an interview with her?

World Jewish Relief: Then, I tried to improve the page by incorporating some secondary and tertiary sources but I've drawn a blank. I am confident that at this point I have explored WP:ATD but after putting together the source assessment table below it's become clear to me that there isn't actually enough significant coverage in independent secondary sources to form an objective overview of this British charity.

We're talking about an organisation that played a significant part in helping (and I'm choosing my words wisely) establish the state of Israel and save the lives of hundreds if not thousands of children before and during World War Two many of whom became notable people and made notable contributions in their own right. Now it may be that World Jewish Releif is the wrong namespace and perhaps Central British Fund for German Jewry might be a better location for this entry.

However, he was appointed Commander of the Order of Polonia Restituta rather than one of the lower grades, which probably qualifies for WP:ANYBIO #1, although the lower grades probably don't. We would certainly consider the equivalent grades in the British honours system to meet ANYBIO (and have done so many times). -- Necrothesp ( talk ) 13:11, 23 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] But context is relevant: getting an award for being in the wrong place/time (dying int he aforementioned incident) is just a nice tweak to WP:NOTMEMORIAL . Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 02:24, 24 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Have you considered that maybe these people would have been up for the honour in life anyway, but died before they could receive it? For the lower levels I would agree with you, just "recognition" for dying in a notable incident (a bit weird, in my opinion, but often done in some countries; France tends to hand out the Légion d'honneur for things like this, for instance), but not the higher levels. There's a reason these people were not made a knight or officer, but received a higher honour. And it's not just seniority, as some senior people did receive one of the lower grades. -- Necrothesp ( talk ) 10:36, 24 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If they are notable for other reasons, we need other sources to say so. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 03:00, 29 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep . If I'm reading the source on the PlWiki article correctly, this individual also seems to have been awarded the Portuguese Order of Merit in 2009 (before his death), and there's also some coverage of him in 2009 in Wiadomosci regarding alleged collaboration with the Communist regime. On the scholarly/diplomatic side, he appears to be mentioned by name on multiple occasions in a speech by the President of Estonia , he led a Delegation between Poland and Turkey, met with Syrian officials on behalf of the Poles, and performed other diplomatic functions. There some coverage of his analysis on the Partnership for Peace that I can find, and he appears to have been awarded the Freedom House 's Palmer Prize (see list ). Aside from all that, there's a fairly in-depth article from 1996 in The Jewish Voice about his work regarding Polish-Jewish reconciliation (as well as a few JTA pieces that also refer to this). And of course there's also the flurry of coverage around the time of his death; many of these sources are in the PlWiki article already, and WP:SIGCOV is easily met. What this all makes clear is that we have a case here where it's clearly not WP:1E , and where we have significant coverage by multiple independent RS. WP:NOTMEMORIAL states Subjects of encyclopedia articles must satisfy Wikipedia's notability requirements. Wikipedia is not the place to memorialize deceased friends, relatives, acquaintances, or others who do not meet such requirements. But this person easily meets WP:ANYBIO #1 for the Polish and Portuguese state honors, and also meets WP:NBASIC , so NOTMEMORIAL is not violated. On top of that, I think there's substantial enough coverage that an article can be written about him in a standalone fashion, so I see no need to redirect or merge. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 04:40, 31 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

So, for example a source such as this [5] indicating that the PVI influenced their own Index would count towards notability (albeit this is a passing mention).

Voice of the Turtle: From analyzing the sources, they are either passing mentions of the group and don't cover the group in depth(Wachs' obituary, the NYT source) or they are primary sources(Rootsworld is an interview, one of the sources is just a video of their concert, and Marini's book, as far as I can tell, contains an interview with Wachs as coverage of the group.) I also found no independent/third-party and notable sources that could be used to improve the page. Jaguarnik ( talk ) 02:08, 7 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The group disbanded after Wachs died, so there isn't a whole lot of new news. I will see if I can find updates that are relevant. They have a dozen albums on an established record label, which is way above the notability criteria for a band. Their work is also significant from an ethnomusicology point of view. Behind each album is significant historical research, which involved travel all over the world to find historical records. Asbruckman ( talk ) 13:52, 7 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I added an additional cite to comments by an ethnomusicologist about the archival research that supports their music. Does that help at all? Asbruckman ( talk ) 21:48, 8 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi, this is Joel Bresler, the publisher of www.sephardicmusic.org, one of the leading sources of information about Sephardic music on the web. VOT had a profound impact on the evolution of Sephardic music performance and recordings for numerous reasons. First, they released 12 albums, more than any other group. Second, they were well integrated into the *substantial* Boston Early Music community and so made quite an impression. Third, they were involved quite early, which increased their importance still further. Fourth, Ms. Wachs undertook substantial research including trips to Israel where she used the documentary print and sound resources at the National Sound Archive and (I believe) the Voice of Israel to collect repertory, tunes, performance practice, etc. Rather than remove this article - which seems to me off to a very solid start - I would suggest keeping it and letting the community embellish and expand it.

Here's some in-depth secondary coverage intermingled with an interview in the Boston Globe [97] , one quote short but relevant from that coverage: "Wachs and her quartet, Voice of the Turtle, are the preeminent exponents of Sephardic folk music in the country, perhaps the world." In depth coverage from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel [98] including: "Voice of the Turtle, an ensemble dedicated to preserving and performing music of the Iberian Jews, was presented in concert by Early Music Now. Voice of the Turtle has spent the past 19 years collecting and studying Sephardic music. Saturday's performance featured pieces reflecting the culture in diaspora. Melodies came from Turkey, Jerusalem and Bulgaria, places to which the Sephardim fled. The ensemble, Derek Burrows, Lisle Kulbach, Jay Rosenberg and founder/artistic director Judith Wachs, played a bevy of instruments ranging from a Medieval Spanish bagpipe to various flutes, lutes and percussion instruments, as well as harp, guitar and various bowed string instruments." Here's some coverage from Washington Post discussing a performance [99] including: "On this occasion, a concert titled "Rites of Spring" given at the first annual Washington Jewish Music Festival, they sang three versions of "Had Gadya," an Aramaic song celebrating Passover. Then, in a spectacular demonstration of the vitality and diversity of the music they have collected in 21 years of performing medieval and folk music together, Voice of the Turtle sang a suite of more than a dozen other versions from Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Provence, Morocco, Yemen, Romania and Yugoslavia--countries in which the Sephardim took refuge when they were driven out of Spain in 1492."

List of fellows of IEEE Computer Society: [19] (a possibly incomplete list, according to that page). May be better suited for a category for the fellows, but as a list it seems rather impractical and not distinctive or selective enough as an award. Fram ( talk ) 17:41, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Lists of people and Computing . Fram ( talk ) 17:41, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm not versed in list versus category policy but there are 16 already-created equivalent pages (IEEE Fellows grouped by member society, per IEEE custom) gathered at List of IEEE fellows along with some red links, so I was trying to follow the existing pattern. Turtlecrown ( talk ) 17:51, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . By separating fellows out into groups by sub-organizations within IEEE, providing sortable tables, and giving the reason for each fellow's election, these list articles provide useful structure beyond the category Category:Fellow Members of the IEEE . All members of these lists are automatically notable by WP:PROF , so I don't think there is a problem with them being indiscriminate. — David Eppstein ( talk ) 17:58, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hmm, true, it says " which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers ", but is a +5000 membership really "highly selective"? There are about 250 new IEEE fellows every year (all societies combined). Fram ( talk ) 18:07, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] So? There are on average more US state legislators elected per year and yet we consider them all notable. It is not about raw numbers; "a highly selective honor" means one reserved to a small fraction of the total membership. In the case of IEEE Fellowship, that fraction is that only 0.1% of the total membership (one in every thousand members) can be elected per year, by an in-depth process that involves soliciting detailed letters of recommendation from experts about the proposed fellows' accomplishments. So yes, it is highly selective. — David Eppstein ( talk ) 19:55, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You can be elected as Fellow only once, so comparing the yearly addition with the total membership is not accurate. More than 1% of the membership are fellows actually, 5000+ of 400,000 [20] . Fram ( talk ) 20:11, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yes, and that compares favorably with other selective fellowships that are limited to, say, 2% of total membership rather than 0.1%/year. It is still highly selective. Only a very small fraction of members will ever achieve that distinction. — David Eppstein ( talk ) 21:19, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to IEEE Computer Society . We don't need a separate list just to display one person. Ajf773 ( talk ) 20:12, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The list is woefully incomplete and should be expanded. The reason for its incomplete state is that it was barely begun before Fram dragged it here to AfD. There is far more than one person who could be listed even if we limited it to bluelinks (which the other IEEE society lists do not currently do). See the other society lists collected at List of IEEE fellows for examples of what this should be. Also, your merge target makes no sense; we should not single out this one society's fellows for merger there when IEEE has many other societies for which we have well-developed lists of fellows. — David Eppstein ( talk ) 20:40, 25 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I initally thought that all these pages should be tables on their respective pages. However: IEEE Computer Society was deleted and redirected in 2022 so a merge wouldn't currently be practicable. As far as I understand (which is not entirely), the fellows are fellows of the IEEE as a whole, not fellows of the society. They are just internally categorised by society membership. If this is true, then all these list pages are somewhat of a misnomer. The IEEE Electronics Packaging Society uses the wording "List of IEEE Fellows in EPS", for example. So it's unclear if a merge, even if possible, would be quite correct. Turtlecrown ( talk ) 14:54, 28 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep This is short now, but the nomination itself indicates that it can be expanded, and it provides information in an at-a-glance way that a category can't.

Aage Leidersdorff: While the article was kept at a previous AfD on the basis that winning an award from a Danish tabloid met WP:ANYBIO #1, and thus Leidersdorff was likely to be notable , in the 18 months since that AfD no one has been able to find additional suitable sources. Even if an award from a tabloid newspaper is a well-known and significant award , an assertion that seems dubious to me, the failure to find any suitable sources is strong evidence that in this case it is not a predictor of notability. In addition meeting ANYBIO doesn't create an exception from the requirements of SPORTSCRIT #5, and thus if we cannot find any significant coverage we cannot keep the article.

Ingratis ( talk ) 17:55, 10 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - What the nom has not mentioned is that the lack of SIGCOV is mostly down to the fact that Danish newspapers are not accessible outside Denmark for 100 years after publication, so in the absence of an editor physically located in Denmark it's not possible to check in what will be the principal source. However, a name search is still possible even if the articles themselves are not accessible (see Mediestream ). Aage Leidersdorff died on 19 Feb 1970: in February 1970 16 newspapers mentioned him. In 1945, when he was awarded the B.T. sportsperson of the year award, his name occurs 24 times, doubtless in part because of the significance of a Jewish sportsman receiving the award in the same year as the end of the Nazi occupation of Denmark. I haven't checked other years. Without seeing the articles it's obviously not possible to gauge the quality of the coverage but it is possible to be sure that there's a quantity of it, and that there could well be more.

KatoKungLee ( talk ) 16:56, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep as WP:OSO is not sufficient grounds for deletion. Between his appearance in the documentary film (which no one here has watched) and the multiple obituaries in Danish newspapers in 1970 (which no one has been able to access but are indexed in the Danish Digital Newspaper Collection), not to mention the many other Danish newspaper clippings across all years (over 1,000 on the name which was admittedly passed down together with the family furrier business), there appears to be ample offline coverage that could satisfy WP:BASIC that we simply cannot access and do not have the language skills to assess here and now. The story of Aage Leidersdorff is more than "just a typical sports bio" as he was a Danish Jew competing in the Olympics before and after the Nazi occupation of Denmark, and was evacuated to Sweden during World War II (as discussed in the Jewish Olympians book). So in addition to the main Danish newspaper archives and books, I would also suggest visiting the Danish Jewish Museum library for additional sources.

C avarrone 08:34, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] While I'm not part particularly fond on these kinds of ! votes, I am leaning keep despite the missing SIGCOV due to a few things: a) Winning the B.T. Guld award is a strong indication that an individual was a notable athlete. b) There is evidence on him getting coverage in the Danish media both when he won the award and when he died but we can't fully access them because c) Offline sources from that period seem to be impossible to fully access unless you visit a Danish library due to local copyright laws. d) I further found this coverage on him in the 1949 edition of Nordisk familjeboks sportlexikon that describes him as the "Nordics' foremost foil and saber fencer since 1935."

We can be confident these sources exists as Cielquiparle has outlined. Jevansen ( talk ) 09:33, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Jevansen For additional sources, I point to the above mentioned sources from the 1943 and 1949 editions of the Swedish Nordisk familjeboks sportlexikon where he is described as the "Nordics' foremost foil and saber fencer since 1935" and his career highlights are listed. Alvaldi ( talk ) 10:04, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment . ANYBIO is irrelevant if the award is related to sports, as we had a global consensus that no sporting achievement can be used to presume notability directly. Same with NBASIC, as we also had global consensus that sportspeople articles must contain a citation to IRS SIGCOV. No such SIGCOV has been identified, and the ambiguity in Danish newspaper hits for him versus his father makes it pointless to speculate on newspaper coverage, so a redirect would be most appropriate to retain the history until we can access those sources. JoelleJay ( talk ) 18:54, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You need to realize that there are times that the rules are not to be strictly followed; per policy and the guideline NSPORT/SPORTCRIT: [This] is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply. Also FWIW, in my opinion if the proposal at that NSPORT2022 discussion was "all articles must have significant coverage or they must be deleted no matter how great their athletic achievements were even if coverage is impossible to find and we know it is near-certain to exist" it would have assuredly not achieved consensus. BeanieFan11 ( talk ) 19:03, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] ANYBIO is as much a guideline as NSPORT so NSPORT does not override ANYBIO (nor vice versa). And with guidelines there are no "musts". All guidelines are subject to exceptions when warranted. Rlendog ( talk ) 20:44, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Please note that the B.T.

Breaking news sources do not count toward extensive coverage. Hypothetical future sources do not count toward sustained coverage. Your ! vote currently has no policy-based argument toward keeping. Thebiguglyalien ( talk ) 22:47, 17 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] At the time and to date, there was breaking news and there was more WP:SUSTAINED coverage. For example, there was a comprehensive analysis of the event that appeared 16 days later in the New York Times [8] and an item on Texas Public Radio 2.5 months after the event. [9] The extensive and sustained coverage makes that the article meets the WP:GNG with the caveat that only 4 months have passed since this apparent attack on Latino homeless in the US. Hence the comment that it is Way too early for the claim that this is not sustained. The experience with similar events, however, is that these are sustained. Moreover, the sustained coverage is already evident. Also, while it is true that all the sources IN the article appeared from May 7 to May 9, per WP:NEXIST , Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article . gidonb ( talk ) 00:00, 18 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Venezuela-related deletion discussions . gidonb ( talk ) 05:48, 18 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Unlike events in the United States such as mass shootings, an attack against a migrants shelter is a lot more uncommon, not to mention the amount of deaths and injured. -- NoonIcarus ( talk ) 09:44, 18 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] To complement on gidonb's articles: as recently as August, there have been articles covering the crash after the release of the toxicology report results, [10] , after a ramming in North Carolina, [11] [12] and during the anniversary of El Paso mass shooting.

His YouTube channel has garnered over a billion views, and he's also dominating the top charts on platforms like Spotify and Deezer in the North African region. Additionally, he has acted in a successful series, and he is working with Netflix to produce a new series around his story. When discussing awards, it's essential to consider the context of the African continent. Unlike the United States, where rap is a major industry with numerous awards and festivals, Africa doesn't have such events until now. Algeria, in particular, is predominantly known for its music style, RAI music, which receives most of the recognition and awards.

The book notes: "In 1932, New Park Mining Company formed as the consolidation of three mining companies: Star of Utah Mining Company, Mayflower Mines Corporation, and Park Galena Mining Company. For the next three decades, the publicly owned, old-line mining company expanded through acquisitions of similar companies, until, by the late 1960s, the mining of metals as an industry fell on hard times. ...

Newpark did not turn a profit. As a result, in 1986, the company, which had traded on the New York Stock Exchange since 1977, was delisted and moved to the NASDAQ. ... Newpark also began a process of restructuring in 1986, after being delisted from the New York Stock Exchange. That process culminated in a private financing transaction in 1987, after which only a small public shareholder base remained.

The book notes on page 337: "By the late 1930s, another company, the New Park Mining Company, had begun making ore shipments from the east side of the Park City Mining District. Organized in May 1932, the New Park was a consolidation of several old companies, including the Park Galena Mining Company, the Star of Utah Mining Company and the Mayflower Mines Corporation. To develop new ore bodies, the New Park began extending the Mayflower tunnel toward the Park Galena. ... By the early 1940s, production from the New Park rivaled that of the Park Utah and the Silver King Coalition. By the end of World War II, the New Park was regularly shipping more ore than all the other major local mines combined." The book notes on page 338: "By the end of the month, the Silver King Coalition, Park Utah, and New Park had suspended operations entirely, bringing total layoffs at area mines to 875. ... By September metal prices had recovered enough to convince management at the New Park to resume production, ... As 1953 became 1954, the properties of United Park City Mines stayed closed. Only the New Park managed to keep producing ore." The book notes on page 339: "This meant that the two largest surviving mining companies in the Park City District, United Park and New Park, were shipping most of their production from the east side of the district in Wasatch County. ... According to a 1956 newspaper story, about two-thirds of the New Park’s 290-man workforce lived in Wasatch County and the Kamas Valley. ...

By 1939, Newpark had managed to dig its way to an ore vein which made it an immediate winner as small mining companies go. The mine not only had enough gold to make Newpark the fourth largest gold producer in the U.S., but also enough silver to make it the country's ninth biggest silver producer. Large amounts of lead, copper, zinc and cadmium also were discovered in the mine. ...  The mine, Newpark's only producing asset, kept the company at a fairly profitable level until the late 1960s, when it began going downhill at the same time that prices of gold, silver, copper and other metals were rising because of overseas attacks on the dollar."

The company, which provides products and services to firms drilling for oil and natural gas, was too bullish with earnings projections when demand for rigs drilling in the Gulf Coast was expected to recover after plunging in 2001. Now, some analysts think two of its three divisions -- mat sales and rentals and drilling fluids, plus a startup water-treatment business -- are poised for growth, fueled by tighter environmental regulations." The article further notes: "The company's involvement in both waste disposal and drilling fluids gave them a lot of knowledge early on about how the waste regulations would change and what Newpark could do to gain a foothold in a cleaner market," said John Tasdemir, an analyst at Raymond James & Associates. He doesn't own shares, and Raymond James hasn't done investment banking with the company in the past 12 months. ...  Newpark has been a step ahead of the competition in developing a high-performance water-based drilling fluid, he said. ...  Although its fluids business is dwarfed by much bigger competitors such as Halliburton Co.'s Baroid unit and M-I Swaco, a joint venture between Smith International Inc. and Schlumberger Ltd., analysts say they have been impressed by Newpark's success in gaining market share. Mr. Tasdemir estimated Newpark has an 18% share of the Gulf Coast fluids market. " BusinessWeek articles: Marcial, Gene G. (2000-12-04). "A Newpark Gusher?". BusinessWeek . No. 3710. p. 175.

Shares of Newpark, trading at 10½ in August, have fallen to 7 11/16, even though Newpark's business — mainly in Louisiana and Texas — has picked up. It recently added on-site processing of wastes to its services. "It is rapidly expanding its capacity," says Robert Trace of Hibernia South-coast Capital, who rates the stock a strong buy, with a 12-month target of 20. Newpark is receiving 5 million barrels of waste a day, says Trace. New Environmental Protection Agency rules calling for reduced discharges into federal waters will boost the demand for Newpark's services, he says. That, plus the rise in rig operations, should allow Newpark to boost prices. The analyst figures the company will earn 170 a share in 2000 and 50¢ in 2001, vs. 1999's 21¢ loss. " Norman, James R.

It had been a one-man company, as it still is, essentially. Its president had been a promoter, like Cranmer, but he had lacked Cranmer's sense of order. He had kept all his records on scraps of paper and in private notebooks, and the company was embroiled in law suits that were hard to defend without documentary evidence. Moreover, no one seemed to know how to get profitably into production. And the new Securities & Exchange Commission was casting a critical eye at the company's stock promotion. Three million shares of stock had been sold all over the U. S. as a result of an ad campaign in such publications as the Police Gazette. ... Under Cranmer's leadership, New Park increased its holdings from 1,100 acres to more than 10,000 acres, installed modern machinery, and paid a total of $2-million in dividends over the 20-year period.

The other business segment, building drilling sites for oil and gas companies, was down because drilling was way off. But 1994 has been far kinder. Louisiana regulators issued rules on disposal of radioactive oilfield waste, allowing disposal work to resume. Higher natural gas prices have spurred a 30 percent increase in drilling in south Texas and Louisiana, the markets Newpark serves.

In 1977, it listed on the New York Stock Exchange but was delisted in 1986 after it sold off one of its divisions to a bank to relieve its debt load. This is around the time that Sassower took an interest in the company. The company began a restructuring in 1986. In 1987, Sassower's group invested $10 million. The company refocused its business and became a major player in hazardous waste cleanup. Again, Sassower had the foresight to redirect the company into a fast growing industry. ... In 1991, Newpark listed on the NASDAQ and then four years later as revenue topped $80 million it listed again on the NYSE (Figure 9.1). Adjusted for splits and dividends, the price of Newpark Resources reached $105.00 per share in the mid-1990s. The Phoenix Group made $200 million on their "calculated risk play."

And there's already a dedicated WP:RSMUSIC -approved source ( https://exclaim.ca/amparticle/animal_collective_announce_new_album_isnt_it_now ) in the article so I don't know about the claim of there being no RS coverage either. That aside, at this exact moment, it does seem to be a bit WP:TOOSOON to meet the GNG. But the album was also seemingly just announced today?

Plenty of RSMUSIC sources wrote dedicated articles about the album, and I don't believe in redirecting or drafting when there's already coverage like this.

Its just the fact that this particular article had a very recent AFD in which no one in it actually advocated deletion which kind of gives a bad look to the process. But, that's just my two cents - as I said, I actually do agree with the nomination, and would support a merge. Rorshacma ( talk ) 00:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge Article could only come up with is a short paragraph about LGBT representation in Life is Strange and not specifically about Rachel. Also, there is zero developmental info specifically about the character from a real world perspective, and a WP:BEFORE search does not turn up any better.

Jclemens ( talk ) 00:31, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Of course, or a full on redirect. That said how exactly do you feel it meets notability in light of things here? Your statement in the previous AfD was that the "article improvements" showed coverage in reliable sources, but that's being contested here as anything sufficient. -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 00:39, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to the game's article - I think a lot of the sources being put forth are critiques of the story itself rather than the character or their actions. Notability is not inherited, so just because a story elicited controversy over treating a character poorly does not make the character immediately notable. I believe the previous AfD conflated these two things incorrectly. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 03:25, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep As I said last time, even after the removal of PopMatters we still have sourced, non-stubby article, which has a recepetion section to balance plot summary even if that is not very long. So WP:WHYN is fullfilled and I see no reason for merge or even deletion. I also wonder if really all secondary sources have been analysed in WP:BEFORE . E.g. PC Invasion has an interesting characterization for Amber having (or being seen as having) two sides, which has not yet been worked into the article, which (at least for Before the Storm ) flies into the face of She's more a plot device than a fleshed out character . Procedurally I think this should have be a merge discussion rather than an AfD. Daranios ( talk ) 15:10, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Part of the problem is it's still primarily a review of the game. Even by the reviewer's own admission the characterization here is up to the player's interpretation and not an analysis on their part as that's the case with all the game's characters. So maybe assume a bit of good faith as to why I said what I did. -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 16:12, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yeah, sorry about my phrasing. What I should have said was that I see more in the secondary sources than you described. Like, I believe it's a good thing to have a multi-faceted character ( Game of Thrones anyone?) which allows to say more about them. WP:GNG also specifically says that the topic does not need to be the source's main topic in order to count as significant coverage. Daranios ( talk ) 20:12, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Daranios Can you tell me which sources meet WP:SIGCOV here? I just scanned the titles so far, but those suggest the artices are about the game rather than the character. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 07:06, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Piotrus : The short answer, basically already present in my reply to Greenish Pickle! : The secondary sources collectively allow us to create a sourced, meaningful article which fullfills the requirement of WP:ALLPLOT and WP:WHYN , so as usual I personally am satisfied with that. Individually, I'd say " Life is Strange: Before the Storm broke our hearts in good and bad ways " has a significant amount to say on the character, both plot and commentary. I did not yet have time look into all secondary sources, but have already found that there was more in those I have looked at than was previously present in the article. Maybe I'll find time to look more next week. Daranios ( talk ) 14:59, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Daranios , I like your arguments as they have merit, and I personally believe that most if not all the out of universe information presented in the article should be preserved without question. However, I am indecisive as to whether the character's dead lesbian trope, as noted by Jclemens, should be refocused and covered within a dedicated reception section in the series article (since we have one now), or in a dedicated standalone article for the character as per status quo. Weak Keep if there is a consensus that there is nothing wrong with the status quo, but I am not opposed to a merge into the series article if and only if someone is willing to do up a proper section about the reception and analysis of her role as a plot device over the course of two games. Often people who advocate a merge or redirect simply will not bother with preserving adequately cited content , they just want that article gone from mainspace and such a position works as an adequate compromise per AfD guidelines. Haleth ( talk ) 05:38, 1 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Haleth : I am not fundamentally opposed to a merge if there should be a majority who thinks the character analysis we have uncovered would be better presented within the context of the games'/series' articles. However I personally fall on the side of a stand-alone presentation being both feasible and preferable. And I do share the concern with regard to merges that really all relevant information is preserved (including the recent additions ). Daranios ( talk ) 15:18, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I would prefer a merge myself, generally echoing Haleth, weak keep being second choice. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 03:09, 8 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I am the other way. Weak keep as a preference at this stage, merge being a second choice. Haleth ( talk ) 11:16, 13 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge I don't think there's enough significant sources talking about the character outside of the games itself to work as a standalone article, and a lot of the commentary around the character is essentially commentary on the game's tropes itself versus Rachel. And I agree that the PopMatters article isn't reliable in this case; it's someone with a pseudonym, not a staff-bylined article. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 21:24, 28 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : My reasons for the keep ! vote remains unchanged from last time . Daranios arguments are pretty convincing too. MoonJet ( talk ) 04:05, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Most of the keep votes like the one above me would be counted as WP:NOTAVOTE "sources have to exist look at this one" which didn't say something. Greenish Pickle! ( 🔔 ) 04:55, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It should be noted that the keep opinions are NOT based any unproven assumption that sources have to exist somewhere , but rather existing sources are present and linked for everyone to see and check both in the article and the previous deletion discussion, which is the most basic argument when notability has been put in question . So keep statments here are argument-based, not votes. The content of the sources is such that we have "a whole article, rather than half a paragraph or a definition of that topic" and more than "a few sentences" , including a ( now slightly expanded ) decent-sized reception section. As that is the whole point why we have a notability requirement in the first place, I don't see why this article should be merged, much less deleted. Daranios ( talk ) 10:59, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You didn't even replied to Piotrus' question. Greenish Pickle! ( 🔔 ) 11:37, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] So?

LingLass ( talk ) 01:52, 4 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS and WP:TRIVIAL are both insufficient arguments. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 09:20, 4 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You’re missing the main point. To elaborate on my first sentence: the most recent five articles listed are themselves enough to show the significance of this character in this world. My second line was partly meant to be amusing. But, the fact that this comparison to Twin Peaks' Laura Plamer is also richly elaborated on in sources that don’t count here (e.g.,in Tumblr lore), does not make the other print sources less worthy.

Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 01:25, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Here’s the full citation of the second article that is archived above: Drouin, R. A. (2019) ‘Games of archiving queerly: artefact collection and defining queer romance in Gone Home and Life is Strange', Alphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media , 16, pp. 24-37. doi: 10.33178/alpha.16.02 Some relevant quotes that show the centering of Amber: “The exigency of numerous characters in their devotion to the missing Rachel Amber, a queer girl, links trauma to the premise of the game. By the game’s conclusion, players find Rachel’s corpse and realise she has been kidnapped, murdered, and potentially raped, shattering Chloe. Rachel, as the subject of a queer trauma archive, possesses a dual role of spectre and centrepiece. Haunting the archive, she is voiceless; details about her come second hand, and there are limited artefacts to compose her history. Players cannot fully understand her sexuality without the biased influence of Chloe, who is in love with her, or the prequel game, Life Is Strange: Before the Storm. It is also queer Chloe who preserves Rachel’s memory and memorialises her.” (p. 31) “Sexuality and gender are overt themes and concerns of both Life Is Strange and Gone Home. This undisguised attention to queer girls prevents audiences from misconstruing the representation either game offers.” p. 34 “Despite relying on the deaths of queer girls to chronicle, the Life Is Strange universe equally hinges upon female devotion, from Chloe’s attachment of Rachel to the healing relationship between Chloe and Max. Rhetoric and archival theory influence queer representation in gaming.” p 34. LingLass ( talk ) 03:25, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment to all merge opinions: After some expansions , which do not yet incorporate all secondary sources found, Rachel Amber currently has a longer Reception/analysis section than Max Caulfield or Chloe Price . I think incorporating these sourced parts into either the series' or the individual games' articles would be either akward or require a major restructuring, as none of these articles has a characters section yet. So do you believe a merge is really the most beneficial course of action at this point? Daranios ( talk ) 10:14, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Relisting to assess whether recent changes in expanding the article impact any editor's opinion on what should happen with this article. Also, I'd like to confirm where those advocating Merge want as a target article. Life Is Strange was referred to but there is no place on this article that is devoted to game characters. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, L iz Read! Talk! 02:16, 12 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment While there have been modifications to the article since this started, and I applaud those efforts...I still feel the sources even the new ones are looking at the story of the games and not her as an independently notable character outside of them. It's just not being demonstrated. I would almost suggest merging the respective bits of commentary to their corresponding titles, as nothing would be lost then. -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 02:34, 12 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per sources added by Daranios. I feel that there's a bit of goalpost-shifting with how "independently notable" is being construed by some participants here. We can certainly agree that simply being a character in a notable game does not by itself make the article subject notable. But that does not mean that the character can only be notable if they are covered outside of any connection to the game (which would be an impossible standard). Rather, it is simply necessary that the character be covered in independent reliable sources, etc., that address the character directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. That standard seems amply met by the sources here, many of which have extensive discussion of this character's story. And while it does seem like perhaps some sort of in-depth article on characters in Life is Strange might be a more optimal way of arranging this content, until someone gets around to doing that labor-intensive reorg, this article seems fine. -- Visviva ( talk ) 05:06, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per @ Visviva .

LingLass ( talk ) 15:24, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Withdraw I feel like this has gone on excessively long, but I do agree with the above suggestion that a character article/"list" may be the better route to explore later. But there has been enough work on the article that it is in better shape now than it was which is at least an improvement, even with my notability concerns. Still I don't see a point in dragging this out further. -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 15:47, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm pretty sure you can't withdraw it with this many Opposes present. QuicoleJR ( talk ) 18:32, 15 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] They can still announce their own withdrawal of their Delete ! vote, but it won't warrant a speedy keep. Merko ( talk ) 10:14, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Technically only delete or redirect opinions preclude a speedy keep, and closes after relists are possible without citing a speedy criterion.

(In the film industry, until filming starts, the creation of a film is much less certain.) This is why the third film has its own standalone article when it started filming.

That in mind, @ DisneyMetalhead , it is typically best practice to have a talk page discussion at one of the main related articles (ie at Talk:Knives Out ) BEFORE submitting these types of drafts for an AfC, as AfC is not always aware of the film MOS guidelines, case in point, what we have here.
