Paul Christiano (researcher): There are two RSes, one of which is an interview with a personal friend and the other is from a single press tour in July which supplied almost all the RS coverage I could find in a WP:BEFORE . Neither is a biographical piece. The article has many other references, but they're all primary. Request for better sourcing to address the issue on the talk page for two weeks, no response; PROD removed without addressing the sourcing deficiencies. What are the three best independent third-party RSes supplying significant biographical coverage to the requirements of WP:BLP ? - David Gerard ( talk ) 19:26, 15 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Science and United States of America .

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 20:21, 15 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Hi David, I didn't see the message you put up on the talk page. I think Paul Christiano meets the following criterion from WP:NACADEMIC: "The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources." He's first author of "Deep reinforcement learning from human preferences" and co-author many other RLHF-related papers, which are extremely highly cited and a core technique used in training large language models like ChatGPT. See his Google Scholar here . Additionally, he is featured in an article in Time's list of 100 most influential people in AI . Enervation ( talk ) 08:52, 16 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per WP:GNG as evidenced by recognition on cover of TIME magazine (one of 28 faces) and feature article in corresponding issue about the TIME 100 Most Influential People in AI (TIME 100/AI), as well as the Fortune magazine article which nominator agreed counted toward notability on the article Talk page. In addition, the 2017 New York Times article "Teaching AI systems to behave themselves" did feature Christiano alongside another colleague at OpenAI. These have all been added to the article now. Cielquiparle ( talk ) 12:17, 16 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Definitely now meets GNG with the additional material added during the afd.

George Griffith: No showing of SIGCOV. More of an essay or thinkpiece rather than an encyclopedic article. Moving for deletion on the basis of WP:TNT. Just Another Cringy Username ( talk ) 21:51, 10 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors , Science fiction and fantasy , and England . Just Another Cringy Username ( talk ) 21:51, 10 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , but yes, rewrite. Certainly a notable author, see e.g. the entry in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction and likewise in Don D'Ammassa 's Encyclopedia of Science Fiction . I'll see if I can find the time to fix the article while the AfD discussion is open. TompaDompa ( talk ) 21:57, 10 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] How about DRAFTIFY as an AtD? Just Another Cringy Username ( talk ) 22:07, 10 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Merits entries in The Oxford Companion to Edwardian Fiction (1997) and The Oxford Companion to English Literature (2009). DuncanHill ( talk ) 23:16, 10 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep discussed as a subject in academic literature: Mollmann, Steven. “Air-Ships and the Technological Revolution: Detached Violence in George Griffith and H.G. Wells.” Science Fiction Studies 42, no. 1 (March 2015): 20–41. doi:10.5621/sciefictstud.42.1.0020.

Jclemens ( talk ) 00:37, 11 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment: At this point, I'm willing to withdraw the nom, but before I do, I'd like some assurance that those who've voted so far are in turn willing to start work on overhauling this article. I don't want to close the discussion and have everyone go their separate ways, ignoring the work that needs to be done here. Just Another Cringy Username ( talk ) 01:07, 11 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] ... And why should we do it, rather than you? You assume some privileged position to nominate stuff for deletion, and then when other people have done the work to prove that your nomination would be a bad idea, turn around and demand they do the rest of the work? Do read WP:NOTCOMPULSORY , please, and when you've done so, please decide whether you want to fix this article, or leave it unenhanced and move on to critique some other article without expending any effort to fix this article, which your efforts have correctly identified as not living up to its potential. Jclemens ( talk ) 04:15, 11 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Because I'm humble enough to admit I don't know everything? You've already found two good sources, so why not use them? I suppose I could have just stubified this article to remove all the unsourced material, but I'd rather try and motivate people to get something done. Or perhaps we should just let it sit dormant for another decade while everyone's busy writing episode recap "articles" for currently popular TV shows? Just Another Cringy Username ( talk ) 21:19, 11 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If you intend to motivate people by threatening articles with deletion just because they could be improved but haven't been, I have a real problem with that approach. It's not limited to you, but it is inappropriate wherever it shows up. If you want to improve articles, or simply don't know how to tell if something is notable or not, come to my talk page with a question and I'll teach you how to source things. Others can teach you how to edit problematic articles appropriately, so that they are improved, but still have a roadmap for further improvement. Much more productive and collegial. Jclemens ( talk ) 02:52, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Appreciate the offer. I'll consider that in the future. For now, TompaDompa's doing a great job overhauling this article without your help. Just Another Cringy Username ( talk ) 04:40, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Jclemens , that was needlessly antagonistic. Just Another Cringy Username nominated this for deletion on the basis that it needs to be rewritten from scratch, an observation that is correct , and offered the compromise solution of turning it into a draft which is a fairly reasonable suggestion considering that the article was in a terrible state and most of the sources are not exactly easily accessible ( The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction notwithstanding). I don't think it's fair to characterize that as assuming a privileged position, nor do I think it's accurate to say that "other people have done the work to prove that your nomination would be a bad idea". When the objection is that the article is in need of a complete rewrite, as in this case, it's reasonable to want to make sure that that will actually happen rather than just establish that it would be possible before withdrawing one's objection. At any rate, I've started rewriting this and requested a few sources from WP:RX for that purpose. TompaDompa ( talk ) 01:20, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] "Needs a rewrite" is not grounds for deletion, and neither is "everyone's busy writing episode recap "articles" for currently popular TV shows". Any editor who makes a habit of nominating articles for deletion because they think they need rewrites is very likely to find themselves topic banned from AfD. If an editor think an article needs a rewrite then they can do it themself, ask on the article talk page, find a relevant wikiproject and ask there, or just move on and accept that the world is not perfect. What they must not do is abuse AfD to get it. DuncanHill ( talk ) 01:37, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Beat me to it, thank you. "Needs a rewrite" is a good argument for... wait for it... a rewrite. Not a deletion. Jclemens ( talk ) 01:38, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Needing a complete rewrite actually can be grounds for deletion, canonically, under WP:DELREASON#14 : Any other content not suitable for an encyclopedia . But of course a rewrite is preferable in such instances, and that is currently underway. You are both very welcome to join the effort. TompaDompa ( talk ) 01:48, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Having looked over two of the sources added to the article, most of the content pre-nomination was justifiable and what it wanted was sourcing more than a re-write. The specifics of Deletion reason 14 don't look to apply in this case GraemeLeggett ( talk ) 07:51, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] TompaDompa , Once again you're demonstrating a skewed and inaccurate view of deletion policy. Which part of WP:NOT says "badly written articles should be deleted"? It doesn't. "Not suitable" in deletion reason 14 is a reference to WP:NOT and nothing else : if it isn't in NOT, it's not covered by deletion reason 14. Do you acknowledge your error here? Jclemens ( talk ) 21:50, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The nomination says More of an essay or thinkpiece rather than an encyclopedic article. That's covered by WP:NOT ( WP:NOTESSAY ), and that's what I was referring to. I could have been clearer about that, I suppose. TompaDompa ( talk ) 21:54, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Extremely notable early science fiction author. And with regards to fixing the article, it's not currently in horrible shape (although yes, it needs work). But that said, Wikipedia's notability guidelines are very clear that notability is established by the subject of the article, not the content or the condition of the article itself. Also worth noting that the same Wikipedia notability guideline states that "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article."-- SouthernNights ( talk ) 15:54, 11 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - Notability is shown in the reliable sources about the subject. The article needs cleaning up, but that does not justify deleting it. Passes WP:GNG and BASIC . - AuthorAuthor ( talk ) 23:17, 11 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it.

Chrysanthemums for a Bunch of Swine: None of these contribute to notability. My BEFORE check just found more wikis and databases, and Google Scholar only had one result. The articles on other Wikipedias also do not seem to have any helpful sources. QuicoleJR ( talk ) 14:28, 29 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Film and Italy . QuicoleJR ( talk ) 14:28, 29 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I’ll improve the page today when I have more time. Added a few things that in my view show it's notable enough for a standalone page. The nominator’s rationale clearly shows that AT LEAST a redirect to Sergio Pastore was warranted anyway. Strongly opposed to deletion . - My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 17:47, 29 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Not sure what the nom's search was, but searching a few film texts turns up a number of sources. It's a spaghetti Western, so it is not surprisingly found in books about that topic. I see that additional sources have been added since the nom. I'm sure there are others (what I found already indicates that's the case). The article needs to be expanded, but that's not a reason to delete. Butler Blog ( talk ) 13:34, 1 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Withdraw I clearly missed some things when performing my search. The sources now in the article seem to be sufficient, and I withdraw this nomination.

You Are in Love: The track is not subject of significant coverage, and the current information leaves something to be desired. Suggest redirecting it back to 1989 (album) as a standalone article does not look promising for inclusion atp. Ippantekina ( talk ) 03:22, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Albums and songs and Music . Ippantekina ( talk ) 03:22, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect No significant coverage in sources other than album reviews . We have to start becoming stricter (or at least enforcing the guidelines more harshly) on the notability of album tracks. PSA 🏕️ ( talk ) 04:19, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think album reviews are fine as long as it satisfies GNG ("Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.") So imo it's really a case by case thing, and in this case the encyclopedic content extracted from the existing sources is subpar for a standalone article. Ippantekina ( talk ) 04:51, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . There are sources that do have significant coverage of the song, other than album reviews. [1] [2] [3] These are the three sources that best demonstrate its notability. Brachy 08 (Talk) 07:48, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Even so, the encyclopedic content of this article is of merger quality and there is no need for a standalone article when such content could be integrated into the article 1989 (album) . Ippantekina ( talk ) 03:08, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] How so? Brachy 08 (Talk) 07:47, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : per Branchy0008 . Even the charting satisfies notability. @T.C.G. [talk] 15:58, 19 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:NSONG charting suggests that "a song or single may be notable enough" but it is not a guarantee. Ippantekina ( talk ) 03:06, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Most articles about recordings and musicians are notable because of charting especially from Billboard charts. Some articles only rely on chart history sources to establish significant coverage. May or not, as long as it is a criteria for notability, it is what it is! @T.C.G. [talk] 09:05, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Lol ok Ippantekina ( talk ) 16:07, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to 1989 (album) per PSA . BlakeIsHereStudios ( talk | contributions ) 01:19, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep – received significant independent coverage in American Songwriter , Billboard , etc. There's also an extensive paragraph in Perone 2017. Combined with other album reviews I don't see why this can't be a great article. Heartfox ( talk ) 13:15, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per the song charting as well as the sources shown in this AfD. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elli ( talk • contribs ) 19:59, 22 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Neutral @ Brachy0008 , @ TheChineseGroundnut , @ Heartfox and @ Elli : If we let this article stand, with doubts about minimum compliance with standards, what will happen is that it will stand, but it would not meet the GA criteria. If the GA criteria are not met, then the 1989 topic will be at risk and will be forced to be removed as a featured topic . What a shame to say (because I know a lot of effort has gone into this article), but the existing articles about the album are better done than this one. Also, you can't do the same thing as with the songs from Midnights (you can notice that all the songs in its standard edition have an article and they are all GA), because the ones from 1989 don't have the same coverage. However, I'll not vote for or against its removal so as not to harm anyone. Santi ( talk ) 20:43, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think it can be GA. Topic demotion grace period is three months. If by that time it is clear it can't meet GA I would vote to redirect, but right now there are still many sources that aren't used and this article is not near its final state. Heartfox ( talk ) 20:52, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Heartfox : Ok, and how which ones? I haven't been able to sit down to review it yet because I have a super tight schedule that I suppose will be light on May 3. Santi ( talk ) 20:56, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The Words and Music of Taylor Swift has a paragraph about the song, for example. Heartfox ( talk ) 20:59, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you. But it would then be more complicated because, in my case, I cannot go around buying information books that I will not use later, because I have several old encyclopedias in the library. I don't know about Brachy in this case. Santi ( talk ) 21:02, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I haven’t got much books pertaining this article (or TayTay in general). However, my country has a lot of libraries (one of them having a book about Taylor Swift for children). Also, thanks for spelling my name correctly. Brachy 08 (Talk) 07:57, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] ...and I can’t access TWAMOTC Brachy 08 (Talk) 08:13, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] You can make a request at WP:RX . Heartfox ( talk ) 16:46, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : It clearly meets WP:NSONG #1 because it charted in Canada, the U.S., and New Zealand, and even earned Gold certification in Australia.

Minecraft server: While there are a small number of notable Minecraft servers, such as Mineplex and Hypixel , there's no indication that Minecraft servers in general are notable as a distinct topic from the game that runs on them. The server is just a component of the game; what notable features of multiplayer Minecraft are included here could easily be described in the main article without making it too long , and other things like the "Management" section are descriptions of aspects of running any popular multi-user server which are certainly not unique to this game. Ivanvector ( Talk / Edits ) 19:35, 11 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Video games and Internet . Ivanvector ( Talk / Edits ) 19:35, 11 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep but move to List of Minecraft servers and orient the article around that. Some of the listed servers are independently notable, so it seems to serve a valid navigational purpose . The concept seems at least somewhat notable . ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 19:44, 11 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , in addition to everything already on the page, USA Today covers this in general as a distinct topic. 2601:204:C901:B740:5D4F:EE1B:4A41:2B4A ( talk ) 19:50, 11 August 2023 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE -- Blablubbs ( talk ) 22:38, 18 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep as a notable topic passing WP:GNG with multiple reliable independent in-depth sources. I don't see how this fails either INDISCRIMINATE or NOTINHERITED. The main article is already way too long, let alone if this content was there. — HELL KNOWZ ∣ TALK 20:20, 11 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per replies. Panamitsu ( talk ) 20:27, 11 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . The article provides encyclopedic content, and very much not indiscriminate in what it includes. Neither is the topic inherited solely because Hypixel and Mineplex have been reported on a lot while the subject of servers has less of it. In fact, there is enough written on the subject , which has historical , legal, and financial differences from traditional game servers that make it unique. Though the 'Notable servers' section takes up a chunk of the article, there's substantial prose independent of it. (Worth mentioning that the list's selection criteria, unwritten, is high and that people keep trying to add their server onto the list . Making it a pure list is going in the opposite direction of the raised nomination statement.) Merging it with the Minecraft article is a bad idea because it's bloated and unfocused already. SWinxy ( talk ) 23:50, 11 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per WP:SIGCOV , but agree with ZX on moving the page. Conyo14 ( talk ) 23:56, 11 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per hellknowz, oppose move / listification. I do not understand how this fails WP:SIGCOV or how it's WP:IINFO . I see more than enough sources that are clearly specifically about Minecraft multiplayer servers and not WP:INHERITED from Minecraft. Leijurv ( talk ) 04:23, 12 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yeah, I don't believe this article is indiscriminate. However, I do think there is an argument that there is a significant overlap with game server , hence the listification in order to emphasize what parts about it are worthy of separate mention. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 10:15, 12 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , separate standalone topic per the replies, and the Minecraft article is also hell when it comes to length, merging a servers list into the main article could possibly fall under game guide territory. No opinion on moving to List of Minecraft servers or to keep it here, I just think it's worth keeping in some form. NegativeMP1 ( talk ) 01:46, 14 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: There is an overwhelming consensus that at least some of the 67 references in this article provide SIGCOV to this subject and the article should be Kept...in the future, it would be helpful to other participants and the closer if you identified at least 3 that were particularly crucial in establishing notability.

Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 20:17, 24 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Consdering the AfD posting was the third-ever edit to this new page, and the page is only sourced to primary sources, a good WP:BEFORE search is necessary and it's crystal clear this house comes up often in multiple local news sources (newspaper and television), and has been referenced in several books.

Her album charted on Billboard . -- Jpcase ( talk ) 01:18, 22 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It peaked at No. 36. That meets the criteria for notability? I'm genuinely asking. Bgsu98 (Talk) 01:24, 22 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Absolutely. Any placement on Billboard should generally be considered enough to establish notability. WP:NSINGER simply says that notability is shown if an artist "Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart." It doesn't say that the single or album has to reach an especially high point on the chart. -- Jpcase ( talk ) 01:36, 22 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] And even those Billboard subcharts qualify? I read through WP:BILLBOARDCHARTS , but all of the different iterations of Billboard charts were confusing. Bgsu98 (Talk) 01:41, 22 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yeah, I'm not aware of any Billboard chart that wouldn't be considered a major chart for notability purposes. Barrettsmith's album charted on the Top Christian Albums chart, which certainly qualifies. It apparently also charted on the Heatseekers chart, (though her Billboard page doesn't seem to be online anymore, and unfortunately, it seems that the Way Back Machine only archived the page showing her placement on the Christian chart). -- Jpcase ( talk ) 01:51, 22 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi all, Brooke here! I meet several criteria. Here they are by number: Criterion 1 a) My self-titled album release on Essential/Provident/Sony BMG in 2008 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006P8JUU2/ref=sr_1_1? crid=3T96CHX2AB1K3&keywords=brooke+barrettsmith&qid=1684802487&sprefix=%2Caps%2C96&sr=8-1 b) Several notable print publications. I can find more if you'd like me to dive deeper into my storage space - https://bbarrettsmith.wixsite.com/bb-photos Criterion 2 a) Billboard's Top Christian Album chart b) Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart (Maybe call Provident for a backdated resource. My former A&R rep is still there and he can confirm.) Criterion 4 a) Opening act on Pillar 's national tour "For the Love of the Game" in 2008. Many resources online covered this tour.

To insist that an editor with 30,000 edits and 250+ articles created, who has been trusted by the community with autopatrol and pending changes review, should have to go through AfC is utterly ridiculous.

Maybe it will be helpful to summarize my recent nominations/edits. The NN creator of these articles was recently nominated by another editor. Not by me.

I only nominated these unjustified spinoffs. For this friend, who is just a NN person that has a job, she created a twoliner. In other words, nothing surprising about there not being an article on Hrwiki. For yet another friend she created a longer article that I only cleaned up.

While the recent incident has certainly put the spotlight on him, he has a well-documented history and as apparently had a leadership role among the Nazi-collaborator Ukrainian veterans in Canada.

TheEpicGhosty ( talk ) 17:44, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete or Move .

Anvib ( talk ) 18:09, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : While the subject may not have been very notable on his own for his actions during the war, the politization of him in recent times has definitely made him notable enough to keep.

EytanMelech ( talk ) 18:04, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , though renaming or moving to a “Hunka controversy “ article would be acceptable. Both the man and the controversy over his being honored in the Canadian Parliament are notable. His individual case, which may extend to war crimes charges and trial, and the history of the SS Galizien division as a whole are complicated and nuanced. A rational, sourced article that can help shed light on them is of significant value.

Death Editor 2 ( talk ) 19:27, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] * Keep . Wikipedia has plenty of articles about people who are known for one or few things - someone which is at the heart of a national/international political "incident" figures relatively high-up in the "encyclopaedia-worthy" list. Whilst Mr Hunka may have become famous for the incident, it does not appear as if that is his only history-worthy fact, given that by definition there may well be citeable research in the near future into his actual contribution to the war/his biography between the war and showing up in the Canadian parliament. Peter Kelford ( talk ) 19:29, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - BLP1E doesn't apply for the following reasons: Hunka was the central figure in the event, rather than being only incidentally involved. The controversy occurred in large part due to Hunka's overall biography and personal history, rather than some specific action he took during his visit to the Canadian Parliament. The reporting on Hunka in many cases covers his entire life as relevant to the central controversy rather than merely for color. Many journalists have focused specifically on Hunka's past and thus his life story has now become notable, even if he only originally gained widespread public attention due to his Canadian Parliament appearance. Hunka has been profiled as an individual in both Canadian and international media. Hunka has become involved in other events beyond his initial appearance at the Canadian Parliament. The Polish government has publicly announced that it is investigating him and may seek to extradite him to Poland. This constitutes another event in which Hunka has been implicated and of relevance to this article. Accordingly, the article should be kept and not moved to another name referring only to a single incident. D. Benjamin Miller ( talk ) 19:40, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] 1. Anthony Rota is the central figure. 2. seems to contradict your 1 if the subject’s actions at the event were not central. He’s in the news because the speaker acknowledged him; not because he was a person present at the event, and not because he’s one of the one of the Canadian immigrants who’d been members of the Galicia Division. 3. The biography seems to be based on one blog post by the subject, reporting about the blog post, and incidental mentions elsewhere. 4. Here’s the crux: is there any SIGCOV from before the current event? 5. One Polish minister tweeted. I’m not aware that the Polish government announced anything. — Michael Z . 02:15, 28 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per | keep |

Fundamentally, I think there's a broad-concept article to be written here. For one, searching google scholar for " "general order" military " gives quite a lot of results. While most are about specific general orders, there are also some about the limitations of such order. See e.g. Hiromoto, Lee (2021). "No, Sir: Can a Military Doctor Be Prosecuted for Refusing an Order from the President?" (PDF) . Penn State Law Review . 125 (2). ISSN 1545-7877 . . It also appears to be discussed in the abstract in some textbook-style texts, such as Tutherly, Herbert Everett (1898). Elementary Treatise on Military Science and the Art of War . . That said, broad-concept articles are notoriously difficult to write and I can't help but wonder whether at the present a merger into Military order (instruction) would result in a stronger, more coherent article . Even if merged, I naturally would not oppose separating the relevant content into a dedicated article down the line when the amount of content so dictates. - Ljleppan ( talk ) 10:11, 10 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Ultimately, we need to understand that the way media covers soaps is different than the way media covers other TV shows or film, it's all character and cast updates and so on.

In other words, significant coverage does not mean extraordinary or remarkable coverage, it just means coverage that has enough depth that it can be used as source material without violating WP:NOR . I am a bit confused by the above discussion of sources, as there are currently only three cited in the article and on review of the history it doesn't seem that any have been removed.

Tagging with {{ cn }} or similar might have been more constructive, in the spirit of working to improve the encyclopedia as opposed to being keen to get rid of this article. I don't think the Middlesex uni news item can be called primary, but anyway have reinstated the paragraph, added a new independent source and reused one which was used elsewhere. Pam D 17:18, 28 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep . I added seven published reviews to her 2015 book (the three linked above and four more) and two more of a 2017 co-edited volume. If we had that many reviews in total of two authored books it would be enough for me. The "articles about her" in the Guardian appear to be routine election coverage of a type that would not appear to pass WP:NPOL . Which leaves only the "Cereal Killer" affair, which by itself would not pass WP:BIO1E . But adding it all together I think she squeaks by. — David Eppstein ( talk ) 21:35, 27 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep I have added her Scopus profile to her wikidata record: [8] ; it provides further evidence of a healthy number of academic citations.

If memory serves, the late DGG used to advise the following threshold for humanities/social studies PROF 1 test: at least 2 books by solid commercial or academic publishers. Getting By would seem to be one of these. However, McKenzie seems to be at least mid-career, but does not have a publication record that clearly places her above the average professor in this sense. Much of the article is about her political activism, for which she is not notable. I presume this article will be kept, which I think reflects the notability standards have eroded considerably over time. 128.252.172.17 ( talk ) 22:28, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Going by the book-review standard alone, this would be a borderline case, with considerations pointing in different directions. On the one hand, one of the books has well over the minimum number of reviews we'd ask for. On the other hand, the other two books are an edited collection and a co-edited volume.

I personally have some doubts on the reliability of Sundaykiss (as well as all outlets of New Media Group [ zh ] ), but the other sources from Hong Kong Economic Journal , HK01 , am730 , and South China Morning Post are fine and all demonstrated notability of the school. I disagree with Timothy's claims that the sources are based on the same information and are simply for promotional purposes. For instance, the SCMP source was published in 2009, the HKEJ source was published in 2022, while the am730 source was published in 2024, so these sources are very unlikely to be based on the same source of information or sharing the same source materials. Besides, the sources are also obviously covering different topics. For instance, the SCMP source was discussing the schools of the Direct Subsidy Scheme , an educational policy in Hong Kong. The HKEJ source is about gifted education in the school. The am730 source is about the curriculum and academic results of the school in recent years. I think these few sources are quite neutral, at least hardly be considered as advertising the school or whatsoever, and obviously covering different aspects of the school. Moreover, the sources provided by Cunard are also only the tip of an iceberg, as there are in fact a lot more older sources. (For instance, a Sing Tao Daily article in 2015 about the school's public examination results [23] , a TOPick article in 2018 about the school's reform policies on examinations [24] , a Sky Post article in 2018 about the school's extra-curricular activities [25] , a HK01 article in 2019 about the school's application and interview details [26] , a Tai Kung Pao article in 2019 about the school being the first three schools to introduce the Citizenship and Social Development subject [27] , etc.) Therefore, I agree that this article has well passed GNG and fulfilled the requirement of WP:NSCHOOL . — Prince of Erebor ( The Book of Mazarbul ) 14:02, 31 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

Other rational in the nominator's statement involves WP:Other Stuff Doesn't Exist and the nominator specifically brought up the article's creator, meaning they did not focus on content (article) and choose to focus on the contributor (creator) .

The Weather Event Writer ( Talk Page) 02:56, 15 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Much of the excess character number comes from the lead section and the "Case studies" section which uses unnecessarily long quotes and could be entirely condensed into one paragraph. Quantity does not equal quality. United States Man ( talk ) 03:03, 15 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The lead section is perfectly acceptable in length, and I will say that the quotes can be sheared down a little bit. It still doesn’t make it a complete content fork, however. MemeGod . _. ( My talk page , my contributions and my creations! ) 10:58, 15 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge? Delete? - From what I can tell looking over these articles for the first time, this article is just a regurgitation of what is provided more succulently on the 1997 Central Texas tornado outbreak page. The fatalities section in particular is almost identical word for word. If there are new details in this tornado article that were not provided on that outbreak page, they should be merged into the outbreak page. Otherwise, this appears to be an unacceptable content fork and should be deleted. In theory, I'm not against an individual page for the Jarrell tornado, but I think the main outbreak page presents the information so thoroughly that it would be inferior in every case. wxtrackercody ( talk · contributions ) 03:17, 15 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note - It is over twice as long, and thus does not meet the criteria to be deleted under Wikipedia:Content forks .

Also “more than covers the tornado”? Does it go over national reactions, documentation of the event; including the famous “dead man walking” photo, case studies, and even road names? “More than covers tornado” isn’t a good reason for deletion in this case. Also, no need to bring 2024 Sulphur tornado up in this. Even after removing the “case studies” part that you had talked about, it was still over 4,300 bytes.

The article for the individual article is 4,245 words, but as far as I can tell, there is little, if any information, that isn't already in the outbreak article.

The significance of the event is not in question, though. The deletion argument is not based on notability, it is based on being an unacceptable kind of content fork. Even now, the vast majority of the article has just been copy and pasted from the outbreak article, with some minor rewording since this nomination. That does not change the fact that very little information here is distinct. Things that are distinct, such as the dead man walking photograph and case studies surrounding the tornado, can be (and previously were) succinctly described instead of being purposely drawn out to fill out the article. Nobody argues this was a notable tornado. That is also not the point here. wxtrackercody ( talk · contributions ) 23:05, 21 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] We’ve already gone over this, the vast majority are still in support in keeping this article, and the fact that people don’t realize it even was a content form says a lot.

Nate • ( chatter ) 18:24, 10 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] My concern was that in neither of those was she the lead: While she is in all ten episodes of the HBO show ( Head of the Class (2021 TV series) ), in the Disney+ film ( Home Sweet Home Alone ), her role seems not to be a "significant" role from my reading of the plot summary. Combined with a lack of real WP:SIGCOV , I wasn't sure that Notability was proved with basically one major role. Cerebral726 ( talk ) 18:37, 10 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] "Not being sure" is not a good reason to nominate an article for deletion. You should be pretty sure before you nominate things for deletion. There are plenty of articles on Wikipedia that are vanity articles or articles created for a flash in the pan. This isn't one of them. No one has even mentioned her 6 episodes on Happy . -- Ssilvers ( talk ) 16:15, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I was leaving an opening for humility and acknowledging my ability to be wrong with "not sure". If you like, I "felt confident" that the lack of in depth sourcing was not enough to meet WP:GNG , and that her roles were not major enough to counteract that dearth of SIGCOV. Cerebral726 ( talk ) 16:52, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The notability test for actors doesn't hinge on the having of roles, it hinges on the depth and quality of reliable source coverage about her and her performances that can be shown to exist in WP:GNG -worthy third party media.

Oaktree b ( talk ) 20:38, 10 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I'd say that the Variety and Rolling Stone articles are Sig coverage. She also appeared in Bull , which the article doesn't mention.

Based also on her recent TV roles, I agree that she is already notable. -- Ssilvers ( talk ) 21:09, 10 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The article used to mention that role. One of the people trying to delete the article removed it from the article. Kevin Hallward's Ghost ( Let's talk ) 13:07, 11 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I wanted to make sure I didn't accidentally remove any significant roles during my copy edits, and I couldn't find any revision where Bull was mentioned or removed. It seems maybe it was never mentioned before (though I could've missed it!), so I added in her appearance on an episode of that show. Cerebral726 ( talk ) 13:27, 11 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to Head of the Class (2021 TV series) , which is her only significant role. - the Home Sweet Home Alone role is a minor part. The Rolling Stone piece "significant coverage" consists, in its entirety of, "young Kim (still played by Katie Beth Hall, with her hair pulled partially back, but not yet in the full power- ponytail of adult Kim)". The Variety piece is a nice one. But the only coverage which could be considered more than a trivial mention. Onel 5969 TT me 21:22, 10 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] NOTE : Those advocating for deletion have been denigrating Hall's role in Home Sweet Home Alone as some kind of bit part akin to "kid in the background" or something. So I just watched the film and noted her lines and screentime. Depending on how you figure it, she has 20+ lines of dialogue and 10+ minutes of dedicated screentime in the film. Her character is an important supporting character in the film and not some bit part. Kevin Hallward's Ghost ( Let's talk ) 16:51, 11 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I wouldn't call 10 minutes of total dialogue an an hour and a half movie as significant, it's about 10%. Oaktree b ( talk ) 22:27, 17 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I would call it a significant supporting role. -- Ssilvers ( talk ) 16:18, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Again, the inclusion test for actors does not hinge on the having of roles per se. The "significance" of a role is not measured by arguing about how much screen time she did or didn't have, or how many lines of dialogue she did or didn't have — it's measured by the amount of WP:GNG -worthy media coverage that her performance did or didn't generate in reliable sources . A person can be the top billed star of a movie and still not pass NACTOR if the film itself doesn't pass NFILM, because an actor isn't notable if reliable sources didn't write about the film or the actor's performance in it — because it's not the amount of screen time the person did or didn't have that distinguishes an NACTOR-passing role from an NACTOR-failing role, it's the amount of media coverage that the person's performance did or didn't receive .

Thanks, Seraphimblade Talk to me 22:49, 25 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete - it appears WP:TOOSOON based on available sources to support WP:NACTOR or WP:BASIC notability. A 2021 Hollywood Reporter review of the first three episodes of Head of the Class (2021 TV series) mentions "Eventually the group is joined by the seemingly more popular Sarah (Katie Beth Hall), daughter of the school’s terrifying principal", and "Escalona and the expertly snarky Hall — Young Kim Wexler from Better Call Saul — can sell any punchline, however broad" but otherwise states, "the show is probably more likely to offer select memorable elements — Gomez and Escalona, particularly — than to be uniformly memorable." Hall is not listed as having a starring role in a 2021 AV Club review , although she is mentioned ("by the second episode, viewers are introduced to Sarah (Katie Beth Hall), a.k.a. Principal Maris’ daughter and a possible love interest for one of the other students.") The Bleeding Cool review in the article also does not present her as a lead character. The Variety announcement noted above seems promotional and less supportive of notability in light of the reviews and how the show was cancelled after one season. As to her other work, a role in two episodes of Better Call Saul seems demonstrably not significant, and more so based on the limited secondary coverage - the sources in the article are the Den of Geek blog, the Slashfilm blog, and ComingSoon.net website. Reviews of The Hard Problem at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theatre are collected by Playbill in 2018, and her role is mentioned in a Hollywood Reporter review without specific commentary about her performance, and noted in the New York Times as: "The cast — which also includes Nina Grollman, Tara Summers and Katie Beth Hall (as a little girl who looks a lot like Hilary) — exudes an easygoing smoothness even when plowing through the stoniest fields of metaphysics", but reviews otherwise seem focused on lead actors e.g. Vulture ; Newsday ; The Wrap . Beccaynr ( talk ) 17:45, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - clearly notable. Jack1956 ( talk ) 22:42, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per WP:BASIC . The Variety article is focused and in-depth, covering career highlights, and the article in its current state contains several quotes from independent reviewers commenting on her performances (e.g. in The Hollywood Reporter ), which is just enough to establish notability beyond simply stating that she was cast or played in those roles. Suggest this article is expanded further with an infobox and filmography section. Cielquiparle ( talk ) 16:28, 30 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - meets GNG, given the weight of some of the sources - Variety being the pretty much enough on its own, but backed up with the others there's enough there. - SchroCat ( talk ) 16:04, 2 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The Variety source announces she has been cast in the reboot pilot, lists the lead actress and other cast members in the show, briefly describes what the "rebooted series revolves around", has two brief sentences describing her role, one sentence describing previous "appearances", one sentence listing her agents, and two grafs about the show generally. Beccaynr ( talk ) 16:22, 2 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The Variety article's headline proclaims her casting, followed by a gigantic photo of her, and three paragraphs about her. That's SIGCOV. To argue otherwise defies reality. 3 reviews praised Hall's work in Better Call Saul , one specifically ranking her scene as one of the whole series' "Best Cold Opens". The Cinema Blend article has a whole section about her. The Screen Rant article is also primarily about Hall, mentioning her name 9 times and praising her earlier work. Plenty of coverage. -- Ssilvers ( talk ) 16:46, 2 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Beccaynr, It's generally considered good practice to ping people when replying to one of their comments - I only came back by chance and found you had commented. I am entirely aware of what the Variety article contains: I read it before making my comment; it is also only one of several articles on which I have based my ! vote, which I make clear in my comment. - SchroCat ( talk ) 16:49, 2 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] My comment is about a source discussed by multiple participants in this discussion, and generally echoes the comments above by Bearcat , because there does not appear to be support for WP:ENT notability based on having had "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." From my view, there is limited support for WP:BASIC notability from e.g. 3 sentences in the CinemaBlend blog ("The actress might be best remembered for her one-episode guest spot on Better Call Saul, where she played Young Kim in the “Wexler v. Goodman” episode from 2020"), and Screenrant , which cites Variety as its source, repeats the Variety announcement in two sentences, describes her role "important" and later states "Hall has demonstrated her acting prowess in shows like Happy! and Bull. So now, her fans must really be looking forward to her take on the challenging character in the new show." From my view, without WP:ENT clearly supported, WP:BASIC notability needs stronger support from secondary sources than what appears to be available.

There's no way to establish that the concept "episodes of the program" is covered in reliable sources, as separate from the program itself.

Toughpigs ( talk ) 20:52, 15 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , if a show is notable (and this one is), then it is perfectly acceptable and allowed to split off the episodes into their own page if them being on the page of the show makes it too large to navigate...which I feel like you are saying when you say that a merge would "probably unbalance that article", which it would.

I have a little bit of experience in this area with both American and British television shows. I've made it my goal to source those episodes where I can find the sourcing. And I agree with the advice given above - if a show is notable, the episodes are split off, and often without sourcing. These types of lists go way back to early television, where sourcing is often extremely hard to find. But that doesn't mean the shows were not notable.

Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration: Coddlebean ( talk ) 08:59, 26 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Politics-related deletion discussions . Shellwood ( talk ) 09:24, 26 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Speedy Keep : WP:CSK #3. Those three articles are obviously about different topics. Li Keqiang Government refers only to the composition of the State Council of the People's Republic of China after the 12th (2013-2018) and 13th (2018-2023) National People's Congress . China under Xi Jinping covers the socio-political governance and influence of China during Xi's chairmanship, which extends past 2023 as Xi remains Chairman after the 14th National People's Congress. The subject article is about the Fifth Generations of Chinese leadership , which is a common term coined for categorizing distinct periods of communist leaderships and inherited from the Hu–Wen Administration . In other words, the article is about political institutions of China during the combined rule of Xi and Li from the period 2013-2023, which discusses the distribution and swift of power between Xi and Li during their governance. A simple BEFORE already shows the broad usage and actual meaning of this term , and the nominator (once again) did not provide a deletion rationale grounded in Wikipedia guidelines. — Prince of Erebor ( The Book of Mazarbul ) 13:47, 26 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Speedy keep : as above. Coco bb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs ) 14:21, 26 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Speedy Keep per Prince of Erebor. Agree that WP:CSK #3 applies. Sal2100 ( talk ) 18:57, 26 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - Li Keqiang Government is the Central People's Government of China from 15 March 2013, when Premier Li Keqiang took office, until March 2023 , while Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration is the administration of China from 2013 to 2023 . Both articles list the State Council members, and do little else; it's not obvious that the articles should not be merged. (I agree that China under Xi Jinping is clearly very different). Walsh90210 ( talk ) 01:39, 27 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Walsh90210 : Not really, they are quite distinctive. The key difference is that the subject article includes details about the distribution of power between Xi and Li, which Li Keqiang Government would and should not cover. Another distinction is that the discussion/analysis of this term usually focuses on the power shift from a more equally distributed structure to one more heavily leaning towards Xi, as well as the conflicts between Xi and Li's policies and governance. This is clearly differentiated from Li Keqiang government again, which solely covers the administrative structure of the State Council. Rather than a merge, this article requires an expansion. — Prince of Erebor ( The Book of Mazarbul ) 05:55, 27 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment I think I lean towards merging this article with Li Keqiang Government . Either title is fine, but these are quite redundant. I don't see why details about the distribution of power between Xi and Li cannot be included in Li Keqiang Government . What bothers me more is the title. Shouldn't this be at Xi–Li Administration , per the Chinese name and Hu–Wen example given above? Toadspike [Talk] 21:28, 2 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Toadspike : I beg to differ. The term "Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration" (習李體制) has both broad and specific usage. (See Radio Free Asia [31] , Radio Taiwan International [32] , and academic journals from Journal of East Asian Studies [33] , Peterson Institute for International Economics 's Policy Briefs [34] , etc.) Merging (/redirecting) it to Li Keqiang Government would not be helpful unless there is a whole subsection explaining the nuances. However, the discussion of power shifts and struggles would cause the focus to swift more towards describing Xi Jinping's political influence, rather than Li Keqiang, and the article would digress (similar to the corresponding article in zhwiki where Xi was given significantly more content). So I do not think merging X–L Administration into Li Keqiang Government would be a good option. Instead, Wen Jiabao Government currently does not exist, and articles mentioning Wen Jiabao Government is pipe-linked to Hu-Wen Administration , which makes more sense, as the discussion of power distribution is broader than just the composition of the State Council. However, whether Li Keqiang Government should be redirected to X-L Administration is another discussion at another time, and this current AFD is not going in the right direction as it proposes to delete the article that is more worthwhile to be kept. A rename is also unnecessary, since Li Keqiang's successor, Li Qiang , is also surnamed Li, redirecting the article to Xi-Li Administration would cause confusion (I think Xi-Li Administration should be turned into a disambiguation page if Xi Jinping-Li Qiang Administration is created in the future). Given the above, I still think WP:CSK #3 should apply, as the nominator has misinterpreted the subject article's topic (at least everyone in the discussion agrees that the subject article differs from China under Xi Jinping ), and this article clearly has enough notability to exist. Walsh90210 and Toadspike's suggestions of a potential merge of Li Keqiang Government can be done on the article's talk page or in another AFD. — Prince of Erebor ( The Book of Mazarbul ) 08:42, 3 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] So you're saying that "Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration" is the COMMONNAME and that certain content is appropriate only under that title and not under Li Keqiang Government . In that case, we should merge Li Keqiang Government into Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration . I think your second paragraph agrees with this. Just because AfD is "Articles for Deletion" doesn't mean we can't come to a consensus to merge instead. As for renaming the page, Xi Jinping–Li Qiang Administration is a redlink. If you are correct that Xi–Li Administration ( 习李体制 ; 習李體制 ; Xí Lǐ tǐzhì ) is the COMMONNAME of the Li Keqiang Administration, and I believe you are, then we should move Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration to Xi–Li Administration . Once someone creates Xi Jinping–Li Qiang Administration , we can add a hatnote to that page, but I am fairly certain that right now the Li Keqiang Administration is the primary topic of "Xi–Li Administration" by a wide margin. Toadspike [Talk] 13:22, 3 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] To clarify for the closer, my current ! vote is to: Merge Li Keqiang Government into Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration , and Move Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration to Xi–Li Administration Toadspike [Talk] 13:25, 3 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Toadspike : Yes, you have interpreted my rationales correctly, although I am only suggesting that a merge of Li Keqiang Government article into this article makes more sense. Personally, I still have some reservations, given that both articles are about very different topics. There might also be opinions from other Wikipedians regarding that potential merge, so I think another discussion on Li Keqiang Government is much needed. But since this current discussion is about the fate of X-L Administration, I do not think it is the right place to discuss how to deal with another article, especially since we both seem to agree that X-L Administration is the more notable and worthwhile one to keep (along with some speedy keep !votes agreeing that all three articles are covering different topics). That is why I was suggesting a new and separate discussion for Li Keqiang Government, and this current discussion should be closed as a Keep, since Xi Jinping–Li Keqiang Administration will not be not going anywhere. Regarding the renaming, the sources I listed in this discussion all use the term "Xi Jinping-Li Keqiang Administration", and I think this should be the COMMONNAME (due to more frequent use in reliable sources). But I also found some using the shortened Xi-Li Administration (like The Straits Times [35] and South China Morning Post [36] ), and I do not oppose a rename per WP:CONCISE . The full term could be mentioned in the lead. — Prince of Erebor ( The Book of Mazarbul ) 14:45, 3 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

Northeastern Pennsylvania: No cited sources define NEPA, and sources available online disagree, and are typically tourism advertisements. The sources present only discuss a population spike (retrieved 2014) and three local organizations. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/South Central Pennsylvania for similar case/context.

GabberFlasted ( talk ) 11:52, 9 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep I found many more sources about this region as a whole than for South Central, though I'm sort of rethinking that one now. I'd note that just because there's not an "official", standardized definition of the region doesn't mean it's "nonexistent" or not notable (see Midwestern United States , etc). This is also a larger area than the Poconos – the Discover NEPA tourism organization maps it as the Endless Mountains and Valley ( Wyoming Valley / Coal Region ) in addition to the Poconos. Some sources include "Northeastern Pa. struggled to recruit and retain skilled employees long before COVID-19" , Northeastern Pennsylvania Alliance , Housing, Population and Land Use for Northeastern Pennsylvania , Anthracite's Demise and the Post-Coal Economy of Northeastern Pennsylvania and lots more books and news sources. The article could be reworked not to just summarize what's located there, but I see there's definitely recognition as a region with history beyond a compass direction. Reywas92 Talk 14:13, 9 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] (Totally rewriting a reply so excuse any leaps in logic as I forget what I deleted.) Midwestern United States has the distinction of being a census region, which is a very important and well defined metric. Regardless you've swayed me a bit, and I see now that it could be possible to rewrite this from a list of counties and businesses/things within them into a historical-sociological description of a more vague region referencing geographical/cultural points. But I maintain that this can only work if we can identify a through-line or (hesitate to use the word) narrative that would make an article actually cohesive and educational/explanatory. If its a cultural pocket, or was heavily defined by geography and weather incidental to such, or if some event affected this specific region differently than its surroundings, anything to distinguish it.

Are You Lonesome Tonight? (disambiguation): I left a PROD on this page because only two of the listed items have blue links, and one of those is up for AfD and is likely not to survive. But now I see that PROD has been removed because there are blue links for associated people, just not the listed works themselves. Is that right? Do we allow a dab page that only links to one item which actually shares its title? Personally, I think it's a bit silly and I wouldn't allow it, hence my PROD. But if there's disagreement there which I'm unaware of, I'd love to hear it.

KS Mewa Gniew: That's a shame, because I concur with the AfC comments - the club has heritage, but it plays in the seventh league with a ground capacity of 300.

Wikociewie ( talk ) 06:29, 12 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] National would be helpful, regional too. Or books, magazines.

Giant Snowman 19:39, 12 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Draftify It's close to demonstrating notability IMO - there's at least one newspaper article in there which arguably passes GNG (it's short though but discusses ground development) and it just needs a couple more to get over the line - anything which clearly shows the club receives a level of newspaper coverage. We have articles on similarly sized English clubs which clearly get GNG coverage, so its small size shouldn't be a disqualifier, and considering it was just in draft space moving it back there is an easy option.

Oaktree b ( talk ) 13:09, 19 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep A Polish club that is over 60 years old will have some coverage, however this is a very small club. The essence for an article is there within some of the sources however they could be improved. It's also possible there are historic sources for the club which haven't been picked up on. Nevertheless a couple of the article sources have some merit, but it's not the best. The above comment to merge the article... Well, why would you merge an article to the league page? Certainly when a football club could change to a different league at any given season. Merging there is completely out of the question for this article. If anything, a part merge and redirect to Gniew would be the smart choice. The town article has no sports section on it and the football club could easily be added to that.

Randy Kryn ( talk ) 14:54, 14 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:AUD clearly states that more than local coverage is required.

Oaktree b ( talk ) 15:25, 14 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep (despite my disappointment that this is a different Rubinstein Bagels from the otherwise-forgotten one featured in various administrative law casebooks). It's hard to imagine a more straightforward example of significant coverage in regional media than Oaktree b's Pacific NW Magazine link above. Helpfully, WP:AUD addresses precisely this situation: significant coverage by international or national, or at least regional, media is a strong indication of notability. Just to eliminate any doubt as to whether a single regional source can suffice, the guideline goes on the specify that at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary (emphasis in original). So we seem to be solidly in, even under an inflexibly literal reading of the guideline. There also seems to be no question that the CORPDEPTH requirement that it is possible to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub about the organization is met, based not only on subjective analysis of the sources but also the objectively well-cited state of the article. -- Visviva ( talk ) 04:47, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Coverage by national sources such Salon.com, Vox media, & Food & Wine contradicts the statement Coverage seems entirely local .

Stewart Shining: Despite attempts to engage the community for improvements, the article suffers from critical issues as outlined below: Broken Links or Unavailable Sources: The article relies heavily on sources that are either broken or inaccessible, undermining the verification process. Key examples include: Sports Illustrated cover, 2001 (link) - broken.
"Phuket, Thailand, October 2000" by The Advocate, HighBeam Research, Inc., February 3, 2004 - inaccessible.
"By Stewart Shining, for Time Out (February 1996)" from natalieportman.com - archived and unavailable.
Other broken or archived sources include links from People Magazine, Rolling Stone, and celebrians.com covering various photo shoots and articles from 1996 through 2008. Links That Do Not Verify Notability or Credibility: Several sources mention Shining's work but do not provide substantive discussion of his role or influence, failing to establish his notability. This includes articles like "Goddess of the Mediterranean" from CNN/Sports Illustrated and various brief mentions in Rolling Stone that do not analyze his impact in the field. Overreliance on Primary Sources: The article predominantly uses primary sources, such as stewartshining.com and celebrians.com, which may introduce bias. These sources largely showcase the subject’s work without any critical analysis or third-party perspective, failing to meet the standards for reliable, independent verification of content. Misrepresentation of Roles or Inaccurate Information: The article includes claims not supported by reliable secondary sources, such as the subject's alleged significant roles with non-profits and major editorial contributions. For instance, a Wall Street Journal article titled "New Optimism for AIDS Activist" and information from Photo District News do not confirm his reported roles, creating potential misinformation. Given the extensive reliance on problematic sources, combined with a significant lack of independent and reliable secondary coverage, the subject's notability cannot be adequately verified. Therefore, I recommend a discussion on whether this article should be retained, heavily edited, or deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's content policies and guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mitsoukorussie ( talk • contribs ) 05:01, 29 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log ( step 3 ).

Abdullahi Boos Ahmed: At this point, I have done extensive searching of the minister's name beyond what is expected in WP:BEFORE , and have not found a single source supporting their notability (or even their existence, for that matter). In addition, the one source on the article only contains a passing mention of the minister among a list of other names. This directly goes against the notion of presumed notability as the subject is not significantly covered in multiple published sources, yet it has been claimed that the article should still be kept per WP:POLITICIAN . However, that policy specifically states that the person being a minister is a "secondary criterion" to notability, and I have found no evidence thus far supporting that the subject of this article is notable to begin with.

Curbon7 ( talk ) 01:56, 16 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] For some reason, there appears to be confusion between this subject and Mohamed Abdi Mohamed , such as in the 2011 Statesman's Yearbook , which lists Abdullahi Boos Ahmed as Minister of Defence for the period when Mohamed Abdi Mohamed held the office. His names in Somali seem to be Cabdalla Bos Axmed and Cabdullaahi Boos Axmed, but I was not able to find much with either name. Sources likely to be offline, though I'm not entirely confident. Curbon7 ( talk ) 02:06, 16 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for looking into this! I'm still not entirely convinced that the biography should be a standalone page, but it is definitely fair to argue that many of the sources are likely offline.

Clarityfiend ( talk ) 06:14, 25 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : It's not quite clear to me what exactly you want done now: redirecting to archaism ? But that article is actually about yet a different, more specialized concept (not archaic periods in the history of civilizations or languages, but archaic elements preserved in present-day languages). Or redirecting to the comic? But that is most certainly not the primary meaning. I'd keep the page as is, for lack of a better solution.

CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 08:32, 25 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : the comic needs a link, the "in title" and "look from" links will help readers find other stuff, and the rest of the page needs to be trimmed drastically. Note that in Archaic_humans#Terminology_and_definition they are referred to several times as "archaics", so that is certainly a valid entry (though should not be piped: I've unpiped). Pam D 13:20, 25 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete per nom. Archaic period already exists, which covers the archaeological eras. The other entries seem unlikely to be confused with one another, and WP:PTM applies here. Presidentman talk · contribs ( Talkback ) 21:24, 25 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Presidentman So do you suggest that the comic be renamed Archaic and that we leave it at that? Pam D 21:29, 25 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That would be fine with me. Presidentman talk · contribs ( Talkback ) 21:44, 25 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment There is another dab page at Archaic Period : either that should redirect to this, or this should have a link to that instead of the various corresponding entries. We don't need both lists. Pam D 07:14, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I have had a go at producing a stripped-back version of the Archaic disambiguation page which I suggest will work to help all readers. Pam D 07:25, 26 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Clarityfiend Does this answer your concerns about the page? Pam D 09:36, 2 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Not really. Two of the three entries are partial matches. However, I don't want it to become a redirect to the comic. Maybe a soft redirect to Wiktionary? Clarityfiend ( talk ) 09:45, 2 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] But then the comic is lost. I really think my suggestion works best, even with a touch of WP:IAR , to help the reader. Pam D 09:57, 2 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I added archaism back into the main dab, explicitly including "archaic" in the description. In my own life that's by far the most common occurrence of "archaic". I imagine the same will be true of at least some other readers. — siro χ o 02:51, 3 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

I've added a couple sources from books in the early 2010s showing that this was an important application for email. On a less grounded note, Mozilla has recently acquired this application with a goal of revitalizing it. If the page isn't significant enough for historical reasons, I'd like to request that the deletion gets delayed for a bit (maybe a year?) to see if it regains a greater following.

Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 13:20, 7 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : DICDEF, specialized legal term it appears. No sourcing found beyond just saying what it means. Oaktree b ( talk ) 16:37, 7 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , for now. As a legal concept, this phrase requires more explanation than would ordinarily be provided in a dictionary definition—it is more complex than the sum of its parts. And if it were to be deleted, it would first need to be reconciled with the similar, but evidently misspelled entry sub silencio at Wiktionary, which fails to provide the context and example provided here—dictionary definitions are usually shorter than this article. The nominator deleted the explanation of the phrase, which seems like a bad way to start the deletion process (removing content that might make the article more likely to survive AfD). Added to which, the rationale given for the nomination—"abuse by IP addresses", is not a valid reason for deletion—and the article history shows plenty of valid edits, most made without IP addresses, although anonymous edits are expressly allowed on Wikipedia. We do not need to delete the article's edit history; there is no policy or reason for doing so, but there are several valid reasons for preserving it, including the work of legitimate editors working to improve the encyclopedia. And it does not appear that the nominator followed WP:BEFORE or any other procedures related to nominating articles for deletion (including signing the nomination). Articles are not deleted because the references are bad or insufficient, and opinions of a court of law are perfectly "appropriate" sources. If additional sources are needed, the nominator needs to look for them before nominating the article for deletion; we don't delete articles because they need more (or any) sources, but because sources cannot be located with a reasonable attempt to do so—and this article already has a valid source; it looks as though it can't be hard to find more. This is not a valid nomination in any respect. P Aculeius ( talk ) 14:53, 8 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete , There are many legal dictionaries, sites and blogs that provide a definition for the term. I don't see a reason why there would be any confusion with it and 'Sub silencio'. If anything, the explanation here seems a bit confusing compared to the other explanation of the term that has been provided else where. Not only is there no further explanation to expand on what was said, there also nothing indicating where it was gotten from. It provides a very vague explanation with no sourcing and nothing to back up the statement. And a quote from a judgment where they merely stated the term does not provide an explanation of the term.

Satisfies GNG easily and by a very wide margin. There are entire periodical articles about this concept, such as: [15] [16] . The concept seems, in particular, to include stealth overruling: [17] . There is a large body of coverage that goes beyond a mere definition of a phrase. This article is not a presently dictionary definition, as it includes content that goes beyond mere definition of a phrase. This article is capable of being further expanded with content that goes beyond mere definition of a phrase. There is nothing that could be described as "abuse" of IP addresses in the page history, as far as I can see.

It seemed patently article-worthy. Loads of legal textbooks and whatnot. Then I read the article and wondered why it didn't give even a basic definition of the idea. So I looked at the edit history and found that it did for 17 years (thanks to Legis ( talk · contribs )) until the nominator here got at it. This isn't often the case but this is a speedy keep .

Pi.1415926535 ( talk ) 23:24, 7 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Canonchet (sometimes known as Cononchet) is a real place, and we know this because it had a station on the Wood River Branch Railroad (though this station wasn't actually in Canonchet, just nearby along the railroad's route. The book Two Tickets on the Wood River Train states on page 12 that it was a distinct village with several mills, near Ashville Pond. Based on my reading that meets NGEO. Trainsandotherthings ( talk ) 11:15, 8 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] delete This is an odd one from the GNIS/topo point of view: the entry has the usual source statement for initial round spots, but in fact it does not appear on any topo until it was back-entered from GNIS sometime after 2010; this implies that it was entered from a gazetteer source. The topos and aerials in fact show nothing that could be mistaken for a town or village. The rail station tends to argue that this is just a general locale, being at some distance from the supposed spot, and we have learned over the years of reviewing these that station does not imply a settlement. We need a much better source than what we have, especially in light of the mapping evidence against the place. Mangoe ( talk ) 04:18, 9 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] You're misstating my comment. The book specifically states that Canonchet was a distinct village with several mills. The station was a bit away from Canonchet because the railroad didn't directly enter the village itself, but a siding and later a station building were constructed to serve the mills there and any passenger or mail traffic. this source mentions Canonchet had two mills involved in producing "fishlines and twines". An article in The Day [24] describes Canonchet as a "town" and states it was heavily damaged by lightning in 1916. Given this verifiably was a populated place, deletion is not appropriate. It should be kept or redirected to Hopkinton. Trainsandotherthings ( talk ) 14:31, 9 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Oaktree b ( talk ) 13:16, 19 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per WP:ORGCRIT . Per WP:HEY , the previous state of lackluster sourcing has been improved since I and others have added an array of independent reliable sources which back up much of what was in the article already, and added info that wasn't there. [7] The sources point to the fact that this band seems to have had a strong impact on people back in the later glam-rock era, even being noticed outside the US. [8] While it seems that their albums never charted, this is not the only yardstick for inclusion in WP:BAND (see #1). This is certainly not a case of a garage band seeking publicity—they were signed to a major record label in the 80s. Something has to be said for their song receiving heavy MTV play. A number of personnel were involved in various other successful bands of the era, some of which are linked, implying that their output here was also of a similar calibur. [9] Other activities of the bandmates were noted by these sources, such as a few books written by the drummer that were reviewed. [10] Best, Stony Brook babble 20:37, 19 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment the signing with Atlantic seems to be the critical factor here. WP:BAND #5 requires two albums. BUT the article is loose about the timing of the record contract vs the release of their first album. If the article clearly said (with sources) there are two releases on Atlantic, I'd vote keep . Allmusic says Warped was on Atlantic Allmusic says D'Molls was on Rock Candy Records which isn't a major label the article suggests the Rock Candy release is a re-release. evidence of release on Atlantic here but that's very WP:OR . Oblivy ( talk ) 01:50, 20 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I found the following: The band, which moved to Los Angeles a few years ago, released "Warped", its second album for Atlantic Records, over the summer. " [11] "Second" implies there was a first, which could only mean their debut album D'Molls was also on the same label, so I added this fact to the article. Stony Brook babble 11:32, 20 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That works for me. I think the article could actually be a bit more definitive on D'Molls being their first album (the "Careers and Luck" Tribune article is confusingly worded, but the second cite supports this). Note that there's a non-paywall version at [12] . Oblivy ( talk ) 12:44, 20 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for that reference Oblivy. Switched now.

Hiro Morita: From a Wikipedia standpoint, however, I do not believe the subject meets the threshold for notability . The amount of secondary sources on the subject are not sufficient; two of the sources in the article are written by a commentator ( John Gunning ) that frequently collaborates with the subject on NHK programming, and most other links point to the NHK website. Searches for additional news articles or websites about the subject lead to poor results. JRHorse ( talk ) 00:04, 26 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] On the contrary, the notability is rather established. If John Gunning writes articles on Hiro Morita it is indeed because the two work together on the subject of sumo for NHK (and this statement is a bit far-fetched given that Gunning only participates in NHK previews) but also and this is important because Gunning is one of the few English-speaking journalists and columnists who works on the world of sumo, at all. The results you mention are also rare but the same can be mentioned for articles like Ajigawa stable (2022) . I especially think that with the channel rooting and the collaboration between Morita and JSA, the article will be able to find more source. - OtharLuin ( talk ) 01:03, 26 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment: I do not think that there are enough secondary, independent sources out there to establish notability.

JRHorse ( talk ) 11:14, 26 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak Keep in my own search I’m seeing fairly frequent media mentions in reliable sources, they’re just not particularly in-depth.

List of Christian heresies: The vision of what the orthodoxy is depends on the denomination you ask.

Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 20:12, 29 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep This is a reasonably well cited list, and NPOV doesn't require us to exercise editorial control over what is or is not a heresy--we rely on RS'es to do that. The list as it stands now is a pretty fair representation of things considered heretical throughout Christendom. Obviously, that's not going to be universal, but it needn't be: What do a preponderance of RS'es call heresies? Jclemens ( talk ) 21:31, 29 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I'll also note that the list is limited to notable heresies with their own articles. Jclemens ( talk ) 21:35, 29 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . There was a uniform orthodoxy until the Catholic/Orthodox split and with the exception of the last entry, the article deals only with those “classic” heresies.

Regulations.gov: Skynxnex ( talk ) 17:47, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . I don't have a lot of experience with AFDs of official government websites articles. So I looked for places it was talked about in generally reliable sources that aren't just linking to a regulation on it. There are, of course, many links from government websites and newspapers about announcing new regulations to review. There has been some coverage of the site as a site, however: EPA adds Web 2.0 to Regulations.gov (a good source), Robotic rulemaking (a good source), Improving Regulations.gov (a good source), Aligning Public Feedback to Requests for Comments on Regulations.gov (seemingly a good source), and an example of using it for research Legal Research for UNT Students . Skynxnex ( talk ) 18:46, 13 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : Although not all sites with a . gov domain extension should receive their own article, the two credible sources you linked emphasize why it is useful to include this subject in the encyclopedia, Aligning Public Feedback to Requests for Comments on Regulations.gov Improving Regulations.gov .

Walt Yoder ( talk ) 18:14, 14 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The fact that the article is just a stub does not mean it should be deleted; as per WP:N “Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article” and “Article content does not determine notability.” Google Scholar has 16,700 hits for “regulations.gov” in quotation marks; however, many (or most) of these “hits” are actually regulations.gov comments rather than scholartly articles about the regulations.gov website, and a search of Google Scholar for case law makes it evident that even the use of quotation marks does not limit the query results to those referencing the website. There are only 2 district-court opinions referencing the phrase, “website regulations.gov” and no published cases referencing “regulations.gov website” or “regulations.gov site.” I would still vote to keep my own article.

I deproDed the page (same nominator, see TP (indicating in my edit summary that given the state of the page and its content, even with no effort to look for further sources, a redirect should at least have been considered). I find both actions quite hasty to be honest (see page history). Most of all, this film has received considerable coverage. I had added some, some was on the page already, and plenty of other sources exist and are available in one click. As for the guideline referred to by the nominator and what it says about unfinished films, well, let's have a look: "Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines. Similarly, films produced in the past which were either not completed or not distributed should not have their own articles, unless their failure was notable per the guidelines ." Number of independent reliable books extensively deal with the failure of this production (add Lorentz in the Google Books search and try....). - My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 22:11, 10 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Mushy Yank : Thank you for your detailed rationale. Respectfully, at this moment I am not aligned with your position and refer back to WP:NFF which stipulates that the cancellation of the specific film would itself have to be notable to warrant an article. From my own searches of this, I could indeed see plenty of sources discussing that the film had undergone a period of shooting and that it did indeed, for at least a period of time, WP:EXIST . Whether that be backed up by 5 sources or 500 is inconsequential, as I have yet to determine a sufficient number to discuss this particular feature's cancellation specifically, by way of WP:SIGCOV . One of the citations offered, a book by Robert Ryan , notes: "after having gone way over budget with 90 days of shooting and nothing to show for the effort, RKO decided to shelve the unfinished film" . The cancellation seems to be like it was simply a matter of costing too much, at a time when finances were stretched due to the matter of a world war . If you, or others, can find sufficient sources that cover the specifics of this film's cancellation, to a significant enough extent, that may help formulate the opinions of others, and indeed myself. Bungle ( talk • contribs ) 22:26, 10 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you for your reply. Please take the time to read the sources in the page at least, if you don't have time to read all the other that are available online (again add Lorentz to the Google books search), it is not only a matter of money and the page clearly says so. Haven't you read the latest version before taking it to Afd? (the 5 minute time span between my last edit adding those sources and your nomination, would make me think that is the case, but you can take your time and read it now) There were various issues: for example Lorentz was unable to cope with the schedule and requirements of a commercial feature film, Ryan had doubts about Lorentz who had so far only filmed documentaries....

The two other articles have references which show lasting impact and coverage such as [5] and [6] Also you are comparing earthquakes more than a hundred times the power with over a thousand casualties each to one that had not a single casualty. Traumnovelle ( talk ) 01:47, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep and Trout Slap The sources demonstrate global coverage in news and scientific publications. The previous AfD closed as Keep just weeks ago and nothing has changed. It's all relative. For example, at a whopping 1,803 feet (550 m), High Point (New Jersey) is an article for the tallest mountain in New Jersey, which would be a pimple in California, Colorado or Alaska. This was the strongest quake in the state in 240 years, and I'd be more than comfortable with the pace of four New Jersey earthquake articles every millennium, and the next one appearing somewhere in the 2260s. So the AfD rationalization is that it's already weeks past the earthquake and there isn't daily coverage so we need to delete the article? Time to whip out the trout and thrash it as needed. Alansohn ( talk ) 03:10, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Terrible example, that mountain has a state park and ski park, both of which confer notability beyond simply being a mountain. Maybe I missed a link but I do not see any scientific publications in the reference list. WP:NEVENT is the relevant guideline. WP:EVENTCRIT , fails that. WP:LASTING , gives quite a clear example as to why this is not notable. WP:GEOSCOPE 'such coverage should not be the sole basis for creating an article' WP:DEPTH and WP:PERSISTENCE apply here. Traumnovelle ( talk ) 04:38, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:GNG is satisfied based on the scope and breadth of reliable and verifiable sources about the earthquake. The earthquake itself occurred mere weeks ago and it is far, far too soon to be whining about WP:PERSISTENCE , which explicitly says "this may be difficult or impossible to determine shortly after the event occurs, as editors cannot know whether an event will receive further coverage or not". Come back in a few years and we can discuss as a community. Until then, move on. Alansohn ( talk ) 05:30, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I disagree, if it is too soon to determine notability then it is too soon to have an article. GNG is also a presumption of notability and the relevant criteria for this article is NEVENT. Traumnovelle ( talk ) 05:34, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep for the same reason I said the last time this article was elected. This was a very rare event, both in magnitude and location. I've still seen talks about the earthquake to this day, and I feel like this was an important event and should have a page dedicated to it. OurAfternoonMalady ( talk ) 11:30, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . The article is well sourced per WP:SIGCOV . It was in the news for weeks. It will likely be in annual retrospectives in December. It is still being studied academically, and is exactly the type that will be in popular culture for years. Bad nomination and arguments to delete worthy of a trout slap. Bearian ( talk ) 14:40, 5 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete . I've already made my case before as I nominated it the first time, but now that no one talks about it anymore it's even more obvious it shouldn't be an article.

Thankfully, the kamikaze account responsible for this text, like most of their ilk, works clumsily, thus making editors' life easier. In short, subject fails WP:GNG and both. To wit: We have a link to Business Insider that grandly purports to show our subject as someone "featured in the world’s ‘highly-cited’ researchers list," while in fact that's Mechanical Engineer Avinash Kumar Agarwal; the link to the University of British Columbia ostensibly supporting the same claim pops up a 404 ; an uninteresting Google list of Kumar's publications; one more effort to establish Kumar as a "highly cited researcher" gifts us with a totally irrelevant text , mentioning out subject precisely zero times; then, a single mention in an Elsevier catalog about Kumar being on some panel among many about Chemistry awards to young people; finally, a fitting finale as well, we get the news about Kumar being feted with the NASI-Scopus Young Scientist Award for 2016, but, unfortunately, this too turns out to be about bioengineer Sachin Kumar.

Ricardo Dolmetsch: The subject of the article fails several of our notability policies: there is no evidence of WP:INDEPTH coverage – all references are to publications where he was co-author, or to unrelated press releases about drugs that don't even mention the subject's name, not speaking about confirming his role or achievements. There is no evidence of compliance with any criteria listed under WP:NACADEMIC either. The listed awards are minor awards, none has an article (note: NIH Director's Pioneer Award is not an award honouring its recipients but a research initiative). Worst: there are many unverified claims in the article: the subject, who left Novartis in 2020, is claimed to have been "involved in early successes in gene therapy, including (...) Zolgensma (...) and Hemgenix". However, Novartis was not involved in Zolgensma development – the drug was developed by a US startup Avexis which received marketing authorisation for it just before the subject left Novartis, while remaining a separate company from Novartis; whereas Hemgenix is not a success yet, as it's barely a year on the market with very little uptake from payers outside the US. Claims that Dolmetch contributed to their "successes" appear unfounded and entirely unsourced WP:PUFFERY . Nearly every sentence needs one or more of {{citation needed}}, {{fails verification}}, or {{secondary source needed}}. All in all, with lack of independent coverage, I don't think this coporate staff member fulfils our criteria of encyclopaedia-level notability. — kashmīrī TALK 11:33, 10 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Medicine-related deletion discussions . — kashmīrī TALK 11:33, 10 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators and Colombia .

His research output is high; unusually, for a mid-career scientist, has had an interview published in a peer-reviewed journal ( Nature Medicine ).

That is a strong record, over a wide range of years. — David Eppstein ( talk ) 22:17, 10 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , per WP:PROF#C1 which he clearly passes with 20+ papers that have 100+ citations. There isnt much more that needs to be said. -- hroest 12:42, 11 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment: The article, seemingly created by the subject or someone very close to him, contains a lot of made-up claims and attempts to look more important. For instance, the author claims to have been Global Head of Neuroscience at Novartis. Actually, he wasn't [55] – he did not work for the Swiss pharmaceutical giant but for Novartis Institutes of BioMedical Research, a US-based biotechnology company (separate legally and structurally, even as wholly owned by Novartis). Different company, different post, different splendour, different country. I've updated the article, but a bad taste remained. Then, the article claims that the subject oversaw the development of gene therapies while in NIBR ("his team... helped bring several therapies to the clinic that included Zolgensma"). That again is misleading. Not only has NIBR never done any substantial work on the mentioned gene therapy (apart from internal consulting) but NIBR even does not carry out clinical development . The mentioned Zolgensma in particular was licensed by Novartis long after all its preclinical and much of clinical development was over. After the subject joined NIBR, its neuroscience division indeed attempted to engage in clinical development – initially, it was clinical trials of branaplam . Yet the two trials they conducted not only failed but the first one was a disaster (children dying due to poor decision making, and no sensible data generated in 7 years) – to the extent that, to the best of my knowledge, Novartis recommended internally that NIBR no longer does clinical development again. The subject left NIBR shortly after. That's not the end of problems with the article. The subject could not "curate the drug development pipeline that included... ofatumumab ", the reason being that ofatumumab received marketing authorisation four years before the subject joined NIBR, [56] not mentioning that ofatumumab was discovered and had preclinical development done by the Danish company Genmab . Unfortunately, I have no time to research other claims, however the sheer number of WP:PEACOCK / WP:PROMO statements constitutes a big red light for me. — kashmīrī TALK 00:30, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment: please be aware that this is WP:NOTCLEANUP and while the COI and the WP:PROMO statements are a problem, they are not grounds for deletion but rather grounds for improving the article. Feel free to improve the article and remove unsourced / unsubstantiated statements. I see that even some of the sourced statements use articles written by the subject itself as source which is obviously not an independent source. -- hroest 16:31, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Hannes Röst Well, I added quite a few {{secondary source needed}} tags, but @ Allan Nonymous removed all [57] of them [58] . However, I think we all know that being listed among co-authors on a paper is not same as "that's what he worked on", and isn't covered by WP:ABOUTSELF . I know it's not WP:CLEANUP, however the sheer number of problems with the article is a good indicator whether the article is ready for mainspace. Note that it was created in draftspace, however the author did not submit it for review before moving it to mainspace. Had the article followed the normal route, we wouldn't be having such a discussion at AfD. Draftifying is an option, too. — kashmīrī TALK 17:18, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I removed them under the assumption that being a co-author on a paper is an uncontroversial sign they worked on the subject. Any conclusions drawn from the research (i.e. the results/conclusions/implications of such research) would definitely require an independent source (likely a paper that cites and interprets the information or a review). If you disagree, feel free to add them back, I made the edits assuming this interpretation WP:ABOUTSELF was uncontroversial.

Because they are not about Dolmetch. — kashmīrī TALK 20:22, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think you're confusing two things here, WP:NOTABILITY (i.e. the policy used to establish whether a subject is notable) and WP:VERIFIABILITY (i.e. whether some content about a subject can belong in an article). These two policies have different standards based on the different aims they serve. My edits had nothing to do with WP:NOTABILITY , and everything to do with WP:VERIFIABILITY , so have little bearing on the argument at hand here and probably better discussed on the talk page of this article. Allan Nonymous ( talk ) 20:43, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] They are linked. We can't establish notability – and this discussion is about the subject's notability – without being able to verify claims. If it turns out that a large number of claims are unsourced, or false as shown earlier – then editors might prefer to send the article back to draftspace. — kashmīrī TALK 21:07, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , as per David Eppstein's logic. Incidentally, I have tried to tidy the article up a bit but it still needs removal of promotional language. Qflib ( talk ) 18:54, 13 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment: Hello my name is Ricardo Dolmetsch. Someone brought to my attention that there was a wikipedia article about me and that there was a discussion about its content. I’m arriving a little late to the discussion but I thought I could shed some light on some of the issues that are being discussed. First I didn’t commission or approve this article. It was submitted by my mother who is a journalist in Colombia, without my consent or approval. My mom thinks I’m important but I don’t think that meets the criteria for notability in Wikipedia. There are many scientists who have records like mine so I leave it to you to decide whether to keep the page or take it down. The small group of people who need to know about me can usually find me online, so a Wikipedia entry is not absolutely essential. In case you decide to keep the page I would like to clarify a few things for the record. My original name is Richard Carl Elciario Dolmetsch and I was born in Colombia but my scientific name since my graduate days has been Ricardo Dolmetsch because there were too many Richard’s in the department where I got my Ph.D. and Rick, Rich, Dick and Richard were taken. I make no claim to having discovered or invented Zolgensma. Zolgensma is a gene therapy for SMA that was developed originally at Avexis which was purchased by Novartis who oversaw the registration of the drug. I was one of the Novartis scientists that proposed the purchase of Avexis. I was later the main contact between Avexis and Novartis research (which was called NIBR in those days) until it was discovered that the Avexis development team had committed fraud and Avexis was reorganized. At the time of the Avexis purchase Novartis had about ten gene therapy projects in development in the neuroscience group which is one of the reasons that Novartis was interested in Avexis. The neuroscience gene therapy programs were initiated by a very bright recruit to our group and were quite advanced. For about twenty years, the Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research (NIBR) was the research and early development arm of Novartis. It was in charge of the pipeline from discovery to Ph2 proof of concept clinical studies. Branaplam was a small molecule splicing modulator developed for SMA. It was in active development at the time of the Avexis purchase. It’s not true that any children died because of executive decisions related to Branaplam. The program was put on hold by the FDA because there was a tox signal during development but the children that were being dosed continued to be dosed albeit at a lower dose. The program failed in a later trial for Huntington’s Disease because of toxicity observed in adult patients. I was the global head of Neuroscience at NIBR which was the research and early development arm of Novartis. I was part of the Neuroscience leadership team which included a head of Neuroscience development and a head of Neuroscience Commercial. My leaving NIBR had nothing to do with Branaplam. I left Novartis in good standing to take a position at uniQure. Ofatumumab was an approved drug that had been previously on the market in oncology. It was purchased by Novartis and developed for MS. I was part of the leadership team that worked on this program as I was part of the leadership team that worked on Erenumab (developed at Amgen) and Siponimod (developed at Novartis). Ok that’s it. Thank you all so much for being such selfless editors of Wikipedia. It’s kind of amazing that we have this resource. I’m thinking I should join the effort and help you all. 24.2.241.30 ( talk ) 17:05, 14 May 2024 (UTC) Ricardo [ reply ] @ 24.2.241.30 : Thanks for commenting here and clarifying, Ricardo. You'd be most welcome to register for an account and contribute your knowledge to the global encylopaedia. The way you described your work is definitely more modest than the original writeup by the article author, as the issue I flagged was, essentially, with exagerrated claims not backed up by the few available sources. For instance, while you now described your role in the purchase of Avexis by Novartis, the article said that "your team [at NIBR] brought Zolgensma to the clinic", which I hope you agree is rather imprecise (and folks at Novartis Gene Therapies may be offended). I'll see how to reword the article using based on other details that you provided. The scarcity of reliable independent sources is always a challenge. Re. branaplam, I'm inclined to disagree on details, but this is perhaps not the place to discuss it.

Libby Liu: No indication of wp:notability under GNG or SNG. Of the 14 references, 12 are not about her, and two are bios on the websites of her own organizations.

Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 18:09, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete per nom. It seems to be a COATRACK largely based on sources about Whitleblower Aid. Liu is evidently successful in her career but there's no evidence she meets WP:GNG. Sionk ( talk ) 18:39, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - my initial look for sources finds the Washingtonian ranking her among Washington DC’s 500 Most Influential People of 2023 , as well as sources that seem to add more context to her career, e.g. V.O.A. Directors Resign After Bannon Ally Takes Charge of U.S. Media Agency (NYT, Jun. 15, 2020) CEO of Open Technology Fund Resigns After Closed-Source Lobbying Effort (Vice, Jun. 17, 2020) Lawsuit Argues Dismissal of Government-Funded Media Employees Was Unlawful (NYT, Jun. 23, 2020) Judge Finds U.S. Agency for Global Media CEO Broke Law In Seizing Control Of Fund (NPR, Oct. 17, 2020) 'I Was Speechless': Law Firm Investigated Its Own Ex-Client For Trump VOA Chief (NPR, Mar. 10, 2021) The Facebook whistleblower’s case was a big gamble for the nonprofit supporting her (WaPo, Oct. 22, 2021) earlier coverage includes China's stifling of Web detailed / U.S. firms often cooperate, experts reveal to Congress (SFGATE, 2006) Beccaynr ( talk ) 18:47, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Just clarifying, per that link it is the Washingtonian's site/magazine's pick of the 500 most influential in the DC area. Regarding GNG, we're looking for something that has in-depth coverage of her . Sincerely, North8000 ( talk ) 21:22, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Her inclusion on the Washingtonian list, along with the brief bio, seems to be secondary recognition that contributes to her WP:BASIC notability. I don't have time to fully research or to try to rewrite the article now, but it seems likely she has received more than trivial coverage by secondary sources over time to support her notability and to develop a neutral and balanced biography. Beccaynr ( talk ) 21:37, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The key thing here is just finding (or not finding) 1-2 GNG type sources. Sincerely, North8000 ( talk ) 21:41, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] BTW my nomination (and subsequent discussion) is just trying to do my NPP job properly, to explain that I did and to help sort this out. North8000 ( talk ) 21:51, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Of course! and I am sorry I don't have time right now to do my test-notability-through-a-rewrite thing right now, which may be a way to help demonstrate WP:BASIC / WP:GNG , through a combination of multiple independent sources.

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 19:09, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment - I've made some updates to the article to add sources listed in this discussion, remove sources without coverage of Liu, and add content, including from additional research. I still plan to check the Wikipedia Library. Beccaynr ( talk ) 05:39, 31 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Could you point out any references that look like GNG coverage? Thanx. North8000 ( talk ) 01:03, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I am still reviewing research and working on the article, but I think the WP:BASIC SNG would be the most likely guideline to support her notability, with a combination of sources over time demonstrating that she/her work have received GNG-equivalent coverage in independent, reliable, secondary sources. Beccaynr ( talk ) 02:16, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] For example, for her work with Radio Free Asia related to what could be described as the Great Firewall , there is SFGate in 2006, which provides context for her description of RFA's work; NYT in 2011, similarly providing context for her description of RFA's work; her writing and RFA work focused on circumventing Chinese government censorship is also discussed in a 2009 Journal of Business Ethics article at pp. 497-498 . The sustained coverage of this aspect of her career, when combined, seems to provide some support for her notability. The Open Technology Fund coverage related to her has more focus on her as part of a group of people fired by Michael Pack and the lawsuits that followed, but there is some coverage from the WSJ in 2016 ProQuest 1766924876 , which includes a description of her role in the development of the OTF. I have not yet done a specific search at the Wikipedia Library for her work at Whistleblower Aid , but the sources in the article now include a 2021 WaPo interview with context, and The Guardian quoting her in 2022. Beccaynr ( talk ) 03:04, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] There is also the Washingtonian in 2023, placing her in a group of 20 people it describes as "Whether fighting for democracy or federal-employee benefits, these people care deeply about having our public system work effectively", and the 2020/2021 Luxembourg Peace Prize award (this appears to be a reprinted press release); from my view, the Washingtonian recognition in particular seems to be independent, reliable, and secondary coverage of her and her work, and even though it is not in-depth, it contributes support for her WP:BASIC notability. Beccaynr ( talk ) 03:45, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Being considered as one of 500 most influential people by the Washingtonian is a very tenuous claim to notability indeed. Being a laureate of the Luxembourg Peace Prize sounds slightly more impressive, though this doesn't appear to be a major award. Coverage of the work of Radio Free Asia would count towards the notability of RFA, but not Liu. Sionk ( talk ) 12:27, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I've also been thinking about her notability as a creative professional, based on the sources, e.g. WP:DIRECTOR - in this 2011 NYT piece, she discusses how the organization she directs collects information for journalism; the 2006 SFGate is her discussing how they teach people to access the journalism; in this 2011 NYT piece, "Liu said she spends most of her time trying to figure out how to get around Chinese government firewalls that make it difficult for young people to get Radio Free Asia’s broadcasts on the Internet or their cellphones." The 2009 Journal of Business Ethics source discusses her work and her writing. Her role creating the Open Technology Fund within RFA is discussed by The Wall Street Journal in more than trivial coverage, and the OTF and Liu receive more coverage in the wake of the Pack firings and subsequent lawsuits. The most limited coverage I have found so far is related to her current role at Whistleblower Aid , and the revisions to the article since your ! vote reflect this; from my view, the RFA/OTF coverage seems to help show that she has held leadership positions at two journalism-related organizations, and her work within these organizations has received coverage in independent, reliable, and secondary sources. From my view, it seems established by souces that she had an active leadership role within RFA and OTF, so the coverage related to her and her work supports her notability. Beccaynr ( talk ) 13:44, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I nominated based on the "rules" and just trying to do my job properly. At the time the info in the article was just resume type stuff. You seem to building more both in content and sources including the type of stuff described in your last post. IMHO some more of that type of development (even without GNG sources) might make me personally want to "keep" even if that needs a little wp:iar. North8000 ( talk ) 14:23, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I completely respect the nomination, not only based on the article at the time it was nominated several months after its creation, but also in light of the deep-diving into research needed for development. I appreciate your bringing this article forward for review and discussion. Beccaynr ( talk ) 14:55, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Based on all of that including substantial additions my opinion has changed to Weak keep . "Weak" because I think that there are still not GNG sources and so I'm relying on a bit of WP:IAR or else consideration of all of the other material and considerations under Wikipedia:How Wikipedia notability works . Sincerely, North8000 ( talk ) 14:18, 2 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , based on WP:BASIC and a combination of sources over time; I recently added a source from NPR ( April 2021 ) with a more substantial focus on Liu than some other sources related to the Pack firings, including her filing of a whistleblower complaint, although some sources have more than trivial coverage; with the 2009 Journal of Business Ethics coverage of her writing and work at RFA, as well as the 2016 Wall Street Journal coverage of her role developing the OTF, we seem to have independent, reliable, and secondary coverage of major aspects of her career over time. To the extent WP:IAR is needed to support a standalone article, I have been thinking on how fragmenting this content across several articles, at minimum to Radio Free Asia and the Open Technology Fund , does not seem to be the most efficient outcome, because Liu held a leadership role at RFA for 14 years, led both the creation of the OTF and the OTF after it became an independent grantee, and had an active role in what happened after Pack was appointed, and has had more than trivial coverage of these aspects of her career. As a side note, I appreciate the thoughtful discussion here, and consideration while I worked on the article.

Uri Gordon (anarchist): The sources here, as well as those found in a WP:BEFORE search, are primary in that they consist mainly of interviews and self-published works by the article subject.

There is no extended reliable, secondary source coverage of note about the author himself, discounting passing mentions and interviews (which are primary sources). The most that has been written about him are the academic reviews of his book Anarchy Alive which are already in that dedicated article, as they're more about the book than the author. That Anarchists Against the Wall has one academic review (not counting Fifth Estate , which is a partisan periodical) does not bring us any more closer to being able to write a dedicated biography that does justice to Gordon. The standard here is to cover the author within his book article, if he's better known for that book than for any other thing . czar 01:27, 25 June 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.

It's a shame that the writer of this rather puffy BLP could not take the trouble to provide a GS profile, but I think that there is a pass of WP:Prof and WP:Author in a low-profile field. Xxanthippe ( talk ) 01:46, 19 October 2023 (UTC) . [ reply ] Keep . One search on GS gives a book with 490 citations, which alone is well sufficient for SNG. Judging from the edit history there might be a COI problem but that is grounds for careful review, not for deletion. The career section contains (by my count) 4 references to him authored by academic peers, so the nominator has not checked things carefully. The most problematic part I noticed is actually the "criticism" section which appears to contain titles for unrelated books by another author. That smells of promotion. Ceconhistorian ( talk ) 04:40, 19 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I see his google scholar publications now, he is noted as "SRC Hicks" and that was why I couldn't find him before. His book Explaining Postmodernism: Skepticism and Socialism from Rousseau to Foucault has over 400 citations now, which is a very big number, but I'm still concerned about the fact that his other publications still didn't get anywhere near that level of attention (his Nietzsche and the Nazis only has over 20 citations, for example, and I can't confirm if any of them mention Hicks beyond a passing mention). If only the postmodernism book is getting coverage, maybe we should have an article about the book and not him. I could confirm 2 sources about his works in the Career section of the article, one of which is about Explaining Postmodernism and the other seems to have been deleted from the Atlas Society website. SparklyNights SparklyNights 05:59, 19 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] His overall count looks good enough; 490 is massive and 20-60 are not bad citation numbers for a niche area like history of philosophy. From WP:PROF : "Generally, more experimental and applied subjects tend to have higher publication and citation rates than more theoretical ones. Publication and citation rates in humanities are generally lower than in sciences." History of philosophy is twice disadvantaged because it's in the humanities and quite theoretical. I've tried to come up with a fair comparison and the first that comes to mind is Peter Steinberger , a well-respected historian of philosophy who wrote on similar subjects -- here are his citation numbers. Ceconhistorian ( talk ) 06:44, 19 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I think the titles for unrelated books by another author were added to explain who the reviewer being quoted is; the line is a bit awkward as a result, but it doesn't strike me as advertising those books.

Come on What century are you living in...-- Hazooyi ( talk ) 09:05, 15 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ User4edits I have found more references about her in Financial Times and The Wall Street Journal , two of the biggest and most reputed newspapers in the world. It may be behind paywall and due to copyright issues, I am sharing only a few extracts Financial Times : ' Transforming a small pathology lab into a $1bn business ' Ameera Shah, managing director of India’s Metropolis Healthcare, returned to her Mumbai home in mid-March, after giving birth to her first child. Her plan was to spend a month “without worrying about Metropolis,” the nationwide chain of diagnostics laboratories she had built over the previous two decades. :But coronavirus cases had begun emerging in India, where authorities had done little to prepare for the pandemic. Ms Shah was soon ensnared in calls with government officials about testing policies. On March 23, New Delhi permitted six private pathology labs — including Metropolis — to start testing for the pathogen. A day later, Prime Minister Narendra Modi abruptly imposed a nationwide coronavirus lockdown. The 40-year-old entrepreneur — who by then had retreated with her husband, parents and baby to a house in the countryside — found herself at the centre of a maelstrom, trying to help her company ramp up its coronavirus testing capacity amid the severe disruption of the lockdown. For years, she fought the stereotype [in India] that young women lacked seriousness, as she transformed her father’s small pathology lab into a listed company valued at nearly $1bn on the Bombay Stock Exchange. The Wall Street Journal : ' Entrepreneur Builds a Leading Chain of Diagnostics Labs ' Ameera Shah launched Metropolis Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. in 2001, expanding her father’s Mumbai-based pathology center into a company of 3,800 employees and a network of laboratories throughout India. Taking advantage of low regulatory costs that allow blood tests to be conducted at a tenth the price of a U.S. lab, the company has strived to build up scale, offering 4,500 types of tests on everything from cholesterol to complex genetics. But loose regulation also means stiff competition – there are about 100, 000 pathology labs in India’s fragmented market. Ms. Shah, 36, spoke with The Wall Street Journal about her decision to return to India after going to college in the U.S., the challenges of organizing independent-minded Indian doctors and her decision to expand into emerging markets in Africa.

Cunard ( talk ) 10:04, 19 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] How are these CCP outlets "independent " of anything? Nirva20 ( talk ) 17:45, 19 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] From Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#Xinhua News Agency : Xinhua News Agency is the official state-run press agency of the People's Republic of China. There is consensus that Xinhua is generally reliable for factual reporting except in areas where the government of China may have a reason to use it for propaganda or disinformation. Xinhua is also generally reliable for the views and positions of the Chinese government and its officials. For subjects where the Chinese government may be a stakeholder, the consensus is almost unanimous that Xinhua cannot be trusted to cover them accurately and dispassionately; some editors favour outright deprecation because of its lack of editorial independence . There is no consensus for applying any one single label to the whole of the agency. Caution should be exercised in using this source, extremely so in case of extraordinary claims on controversial subjects or biographies of living people . When in doubt, try to find better sources instead; use inline attribution if you must use Xinhua. From Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#China Daily : China Daily is a publication owned by the Chinese Communist Party . The 2021 RfC found narrow consensus against deprecating China Daily , owing to the lack of available usable sources for Chinese topics. There is consensus that China Daily may be used, cautiously and with good editorial judgment, as a source for the position of the Chinese authorities and the Chinese Communist Party; as a source for the position of China Daily itself; as a source for facts about non-political events in mainland China, while noting that (a) China Daily ' s interpretation of those facts is likely to contain political spin, and (b) China Daily's omission of details from a story should not be used to determine that such details are untruthful; and, with great caution, as a supplementary (but not sole) source for facts about political events of mainland China. Editors agree that when using this source, context matters a great deal and the facts should be separated from China Daily ' s view about those facts. It is best practice to use in-text attribution and inline citations when sourcing content to China Daily . I consider the state-owned media publications listed here to be sufficiently reliable and independent for factual areas since the author and screenwriter Bonnie Bo is not an "are[a] where the government of China may have a reason to use it for propaganda or disinformation".

Removal of dead Chinese language external links requires no explanation. Nirva20 ( talk ) 18:11, 20 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] In this edit [1] , you removed four statements which are all verified in the articles Cunard posted above (at least two of which were already in the article when you started editing it), namely: her parents worked in research institutes; she was champion of the province's art examination; she was admitted to the Nanjing Arts Institute; and she dropped out of that school. In terms of deleting links, it is never appropriate to remove a source (which those external links were -- they were not labeled sources but as the article had no inline citations they obviously were) simply because it is dead. Internet archives like the Wayback Machine can be used to find archived copies, as Cunard has done above. If you had checked the sources that were in the article before you started editing it, and replaced dead links where necessary, you would very likely have found all four of those relevant statements that you deleted were verified therein. If not, the appropriate action would have been adding a "citation needed" tag to that which you could not find a citation for, rather than deleting relevant information.

Talk! 07:15, 11 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . Relying primarily on "Cake" by Sally Parham in The Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America , I there are two possible scopes for this article. The one that interests me most is the butter cake version after the baking powder revolution. However, there's also the much older yeast-based spice cakes from the 17th and 18th centuries ( Martha Washington's great cake is at the tail end of that), which may be what Bearian is thinking of. If you imagine one of these spice-and-currants cakes, originally rather more like Raisin bread than like a layer cake, a modern spice cake translates that flavor profile out of the original yeast bread or the heavy fruit cake and into a modern butter cake. Parham writes 'The old fruited, spiced cakes baked for tea, too, were dragooned into the new butter cake family... Already darkened, if only slightly, by fruit and spice, these cakes gathered into a new clutch of butter cakes that were intentionally darkened to a fare-thee-well—by spices and brown sugar or molasses, to make “spice cakes”.' She also says spice cake was the second most popular category of butter cake during the 20th century (after chocolate, before vanilla), and that they adapted to the mid-century vegetable oil trend nicely. Examples of modern spice cakes include Applesauce cake , Carrot cake , and Gingerbread , as well as some less common ones, such as Gâteau de Sirop or Parkin (cake) .

Chester Aaron: Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 00:09, 12 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . The problem here is this author's works were mainly published before the internet so there's less info available online. Add in that the article needs a lot of work and I understand why questions on this author's notability were raised. However, a search in the Wikipedia Library turned up a ton of reviews and coverage of his work in places like North American Review, School Library Journal, Horn Book Magazine, Publishers Weekly, Publishing Research Quarterly, and other places. The WP even has a Newsweek article about his work as a garlic farmer and I also found this NYT review of one of his books from 1972 . Aaron doesn't seems like he was a great writer of children's books -- many of the reviews are negative -- but he was widely published and reviewed and meets our WP:Author notability guidelines. -- SouthernNights ( talk ) 13:10, 12 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Natg 19 ( talk ) 20:58, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for opening this discussion; I was just about to do so myself. I'd prefer to uphold the redirect to Gulliver's Travels § Part III: A Voyage to Laputa, Balnibarbi, Luggnagg, Glubbdubdrib and Japan . I've had concerns about this article ever since I came across it last year. ( diff ) — TechnoSquirrel69 ( sigh ) 20:59, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] For the record, I undid the initial WP:BOLD WP:Blank and redirect on the basis that WP:Articles for deletion/Brobdingnag (2nd nomination) resulted in "keep" back in 2022, meaning there is precedent to keep stand-alone articles (such as Brobdingnag ) on locations in Gulliver's Travels , and the article should at minimum be brought to WP:AfD first. On the merits of having a stand-alone page, a quick Google Scholar search ( scholar:laputa ) gets a fair number of hits (that I have admittedly not looked particularly deeply into) that suggest that the topic at least meets our WP:Notability requirements. That does not rule out a WP:NOPAGE situation, of course. TompaDompa ( talk ) 21:07, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Ping the participants in the above-mentioned deletion discussion WP:Articles for deletion/Brobdingnag (2nd nomination) — @ Jontesta , PatGallacher , Vexations , Jclemens , BennyOnTheLoose , and Bearian : Feel free to weigh in here. TompaDompa ( talk ) 21:13, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ TompaDompa : The difference is that Brobdingnag has decent secondary sources, while Laputa uses only primary sources. QuicoleJR ( talk ) 23:50, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm inclined to believe that any content using these sources should be located at Gulliver's Travels or a subpage of that article. Skimming through some sources on the topic, I'm seeing a majority of the discussion of the subject in the context of the larger work and not of the location in isolation, and the encyclopedia should probably reflect that. I'm also not convinced by the precedent set by the Brobdingnag article, which is currently struggling from quite a bit of in-universe fluff that seems more reminiscent of a fan wiki. — TechnoSquirrel69 ( sigh ) 21:27, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I have no doubt that there exists a body of very substantial scholarship on Brobdingnag (and, possibly, Laputa). This is Swift, after all, not some computer game universe. However, it seems to be much easier to delete the existing text and simply wait for someone to create an article that will show this project in a good light. The kind of WP:OR obvious in both Laputa and Brobdingnag tends to attract more of the same. We want editors looking for secondary WP:RS , don't we? Викидим ( talk ) 22:09, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:NEXIST says that notability is based on the existence of reliable sources, not the current state of the article. You are suggesting we WP:TNT the article, which should only be done in extreme cases. It is much easier to improve an existing page than it is to create a new one. Toughpigs ( talk ) 23:20, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] First three statements: yes, of course for all three. The fourth one It is much easier to improve an existing page than it is to create a new one . Not necessarily. I wrote some articles from scratch and modified some, and I think that in many cases writing from scratch is much easier. In this particular case, note how much the sources listed below by BennyOnTheLoose deviate from the current text: none of the subjects in the suggested secondary sources appear to have been touched upon in the current text. Викидим ( talk ) 00:43, 23 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect . The article as-is entirely relies on the text of Swift's books (the only non-Swift source currently listed does not appear to be used). I can imagine an article on the subject that shows notability, but this text is not it: I do not think that the WP:DUE content of the hypothetical replacement will use much of the current text. -- Викидим ( talk ) 21:19, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .

Regards, BennyOnTheLoose ( talk ) 22:49, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : One of the articles that BennyOnTheLoose identified, "The Unity of Swift's Voyage to Laputa: Structure as Meaning in Utopian Fiction", is included in Jonathan Swift: A Collection of Critical Essays . Internet Archive has the book, but unfortunately you can't see the whole thing: this is the link. Still, you can see the chapter heading and some sample text. Swift is important; people have been writing critical analyses of Swift's work for more than two centuries. — Toughpigs ( talk ) 23:04, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I also found another chapter, "Gulliver in Laputa", in a 1968 collection, Twentieth Century Interpretations of Gulliver's Travels: A Collection of Critical Essays . Toughpigs ( talk ) 23:28, 22 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per above sourcing. I'll further note that "delete it until someone comes along and writes a better article" is a statement void of empirical underpinning: no one has demonstrated that is how reality works, even though the sentiment has been bandied about for probably a decade or more. Jclemens ( talk ) 20:38, 23 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] My work on Russian Wikipedia provides many empirical examples of this - entirely common - situation: if an article on an important subject is missing, its very absence spurs editors recognizing its importance to create one. In cases like that, where there are a lot of users ready to add WP:OR based on the personal understanding of the Swift's text, the previous fate of the article helps to explain the need for secondary sources. Au contraire , a text that is essentially OR based on primary sources, tends to attract more of the same.

Zlatko Radić: Most of the references in the article are to primary sources, and seem to largely be cursory mentions. Joy ( talk ) 20:03, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Politicians and Serbia . Joy ( talk ) 20:03, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Strong Keep Radić was a member of the Serbian parliament. Politicians elected to national assemblies are automatically notable per WP:POLITICIAN . CJCurrie ( talk ) 20:09, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] He's still failing WP:GNG . I mean, seriously now, the Serbian Parliament described him like this : there is no biography, and there's just a single word for his profession. Sure, technically this passes the guideline on politicians, but Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy . I can fathom that this backbencher is worthy of an article in the Serbian Wikipedia, but English? -- Joy ( talk ) 21:49, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] This strikes me as a misreading of the policy. WP:POLITICIAN indicates that all members of national assemblies are automatically assumed to be notable. WP:Notability indicates that an article topic is presumed to be notable if it "meets either the general notability guideline (GNG) below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific notability guideline (SNG)." It is therefore sufficient that Radić passes WP:POLITICIAN ; whether or not he also passes WP:GNG is immaterial. Also, I'm inclined to think that an individual being notable on the Serbian Wiki (or the Croatian Wiki, or the Hungarian, or any other Wiki one could name) would generally make them notable on the English Wiki as well. CJCurrie ( talk ) 21:59, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Well, what can I say...

He was a member of a national parliament. Slam dunk. Mccapra ( talk ) 21:53, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Let me remind of some of these fine linked guidelines: "Presumed" means that significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article. A more in-depth discussion might conclude that the topic actually should not have a stand-alone article—perhaps because it violates what Wikipedia is not, particularly the rule that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Fundamentally, how does the average English reader benefit from being told so many details about this person, when e.g. a redirect to List of members of the National Assembly of Serbia, 2003–2007 would suffice. Oh, wait, we don't even have a list of all of them in there. The stated goal of the guideline on politicians is to ensure that our coverage of major political offices, incorporating all of the present and past holders of that office, will be complete . Having this standalone article adds excessive detail while we are clearly lacking the basic general coverage, which is incongruent. -- Joy ( talk ) 22:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'll reiterate something I wrote above: WP:Notability indicates that a topic is presumed notable if it "meets either the general notability guideline (GNG) below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific notability guideline (SNG)." It is therefore sufficient that Radić passes WP:POLITICIAN ; whether or not he also passes WP:GNG is immaterial. CJCurrie ( talk ) 22:07, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Strong keep - Blatantly obvious that it passes WP:NPOL and should be closed by WP:SNOW . CJCurrie has made some excellent points regarding WP:Notability . If the nominator has an issue with WP:NPOL , this should be discussed outside an AFD. ⁂CountHacker ( talk ) 22:34, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Some really odd comments by the nom showing complete misunderstanding for how Wikipedia works. I assumed the nom was a new editor, then I see they've been here 22 years and is an admin! Nom says the subject fails WP:NPOL which explicitly says national legislators are notable. Nom says "Fundamentally, how does the average English reader benefit from being told so many details about this person" - not making a great case for a lack of notability and then says "I can fathom that this backbencher is worthy of an article in the Serbian Wikipedia, but English?" which is a pretty extraordinary statement. So American or British backbenchers are worthy of coverage but not Serbian ones? Heard of WP:GEOBIAS ? AusLondonder ( talk ) 09:47, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ AusLondonder what is extraordinary about wanting a politician's coverage to be commensurate to the person's significance? On the Serbian Wikipedia, there's probably a lot more content about Lapovo , so if they go into an appropriate amount of detail about whatever other local features, characteristics, people, ... they can go into the same amount of detail about the local politicians. Likewise, the English Wikipedia will contain an amount of information relevant to English readers that wouldn't necessarily be seen exactly the same on the other language Wikipedias. This is perfectly normal because it caters to the readers. I'm still not sure in what universe an average English reader would be interested in how some guy spent four years in the Serbian Parliament after getting in as a substitute, apparently did not do anything worth mentioning other than get into a bar fight back home (!), and then was later candidate number 189 or 229 and didn't get elected there ever again. The fact he later finished third in a mayoral election with 600-odd votes, but did serve on the municipal council, is likewise largely meaningless. This is like a compendium of useless factoids about a person. Does nobody have any qualms that this violates WP:NOTWHOSWHO ? At this point I am genuinely perplexed why y'all care so much for keeping this largely trivial information in a standalone article and don't even want to bother coming up with a rationale on who are these readers who we would be serving by keeping this as is. -- Joy ( talk ) 12:20, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] While I agree this will likely never be a Featured Article on the English Wiki, it still passes the threshold for notability. And while this is a separate issue, the information included in the article pertains to the subject's time in public life and is not just a random collection of facts. CJCurrie ( talk ) 12:28, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It's not random, but it is just that - information. An encyclopedia is supposed to be a summary of knowledge, not just information. We can summarize the relevant knowledge about this person's public life in a single list caption as it is now, perhaps referencing it to a couple of those primary sources and to the paragraph in that Politika summary article on parliamentary immunity in Serbia. If they ever do something else of note ( WP:POTENTIAL ), then they can still get a standalone article. -- Joy ( talk ) 13:11, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : I'd like to see this article buffed out a bit more with stuff he did in office, but the subject clearly passes WP:NPOL , which is not a merely arbitrary guideline but exists to help mitigate nominations such as this. These types of political figures tend to always (like in 99.5% of testcases) have coverage of their activities in office, even if you cannot see it using Google (i.e. in things like newspapers that have not yet been digitized; this is basically an estimator of when WP:OFFLINE coverage is likely to exist). If the current state of an NPOL-passing article does not yet surpass WP:NOPAGE , then it can be redirected to a list of legislators; this article clearly does pass that threshold. Curbon7 ( talk ) 16:28, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Curbon7 would love to see 99.5% of these testcases, esp. in relation to Serbia where the political scene is generally well documented. -- Joy ( talk ) 19:46, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Let me put it this way: to my knowledge, no post-1900 WP:NPOL -passing politician has ever been deleted at AfD in the past 15 years on notability grounds. To repeat myself, that is not merely for no reason; a member of parliament will literally always have coverage of their activities, even if that coverage is not easily accessible on Google , whether that be in newspapers that have not yet been digitized or those that are in inaccessible or paywalled archives. Curbon7 ( talk ) 20:08, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep . Article should certainly be flagged for improvement, but members of national legislatures are inherently notable per WP:NPOL #1. The argument here isn't actually that politicians are exempted from GNG — national legislators virtually always pass GNG, and the real issue is that we haven't always invested sufficient effort into finding all of the best GNG-worthy sourcing to write the most substantial article with, and that's especially going to be a problem for politicians who served in countries where the strongest sourcing would be written in foreign languages that many contributors to the English Wikipedia can't read. But again, it's not that better sourcing doesn't exist , it's that Wikipedians haven't put enough work into finding it, which isn't the same thing — and that's precisely why we have SNGs alongside GNG, because the current state of an article is not always the end of the story in and of itself. Bearcat ( talk ) 18:30, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Bearcat that's the thing. I couldn't find anything substantial about this person online, let alone proper secondary sources. For a 21st century Serbian politician, that's just not great. -- Joy ( talk ) 19:48, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Could you clarify what specific resources you actually checked? Do you have access to a proper database of archived Serbian media coverage from 15 to 20 years ago, or did you just do a simple Google search? A politician who was in office from 2004 to 2007 obviously isn't going to have a lot of recent coverage that would still Google well in 2024, but that doesn't constitute proof that at-the-time coverage didn't exist in 2004 and 2005 and 2006 — so you need to be more specific about where you searched, because stuff can fall through the cracks if we don't completely exhaust every possible resource. Bearcat ( talk ) 20:13, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Exactly, a general Google Search failed to produce much of anything about this Zlatko Radić. It found some others, but apparently not this one. I also tried with site:rs specifically, and in Cyrillic as well. If our readers have to have the skills of a private investigator to verify our article about something, then that's not really in the realm of general notability. -- Joy ( talk ) 20:28, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The realm of general notability does not require all or even most of our sources to be recent news coverage that googles, and does permit older news coverage that has to be found in archives . So since Google is not a place where media coverage from 20 years ago would have been expected to turn up, did you actually check any databases of archived Serbian media coverage where articles from 20 years ago would have been expected to turn up? That doesn't require the skills of a private investigator to do, it just requires the skills of a marginally competent researcher.

Southern Pacific 6051: Individual locomotives are seldom notable, and those that are almost always are preserved steam locomotives. EMD E9 claims 42 examples are preserved, this locomotive isn't unique and fails GNG.

From the article: "SP 6051 is the only surviving Southern Pacific passenger-dedicated diesel locomotive". That's uniqueness of a sort. Eastmain ( talk • contribs ) 04:46, 28 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Uniqueness does not guarantee notability. That claim is not supported by the cited source, and cannot find a reliable source for it (if it's even true - there's a lot of preserved SP diesel locomotives ). The article sources are a one-sentence mention in a book, one line in an equipment roster, a self-published non-RS, and a source that does not even mention the locomotive. None of that meets the requirement of significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject required by WP:N . Pi.1415926535 ( talk ) 05:36, 28 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If you get particular enough, anything is "unique".

Trainsandotherthings ( talk ) 18:01, 4 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per my comment at ongoing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Southern Pacific 5623 , which involves the relatively new and fairly comprehensive List of preserved locomotives in the United States . Also, I don't think the assertion about preserved locomotives mostly being steam ones in the nomination is true. It certainly once was true, that the only recognized-as-historic ones were steam. But, if one counts locos in heritage railways, i think it's not true, and it may not be true even if you only considered locomotives preserved in static display at museums. (I also am not sure...i need to go browse the relevant lists.) --Doncram ( talk , contribs ) 07:10, 3 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Good job misrepresenting my words, I said most notable (for Wikipedia) locomotives are steam locomotives, not that most preserved locomotives are steam. Anyways, this comment is extremely WP:POINTy and I trust it will be disregarded entirely by the closer, especially since you've failed to refute the lack of notability arguments at all. Trainsandotherthings ( talk ) 13:26, 3 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] User:Trainsandotherthings , I'm sorry that you think I misrepresented anything. In my mind "preserved locomotive" pretty much equals "notable locomotive", and from my editing in lists of preserved locomotives in the U.S. and Canada, I have the impression that there the (preserved) contents of museums and heritage railways includes a whole lot of post-steam ones, perhaps more than there are steam ones (and perhaps more than the set of preserved steam locomotives plus historic notable steam ones that were not preserved). You said "notable locomotives" are almost all steam ones; it is my belief that was certainly true in the past but I think (and I said I am not sure) that may not be true now. This is all sort of an aside, with respect to this specific locomotive, but it does go to the credibility of the nomination. I "!voted" Keep. --Doncram ( talk , contribs ) 19:59, 15 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, L iz Read! Talk! 05:36, 4 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to the museum, could be a merge target there as well. Nothing particularly special about this locomotive, technical-wise. Oaktree b ( talk ) 16:35, 4 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Weak keep It's interestingly marginal, but after my BEFORE search, between coverage in two books, the Sacramento Bee blurb, and references in several railroad specific books, including model railroad books, lend me to believe the engine's been commented on enough times in secondary sources to be eligible for an article. I'm a weak because I could probably make an argument that nothing is truly significant coverage in a true "here's a feature article specifically on the locomotive" sense, but significant doesn't necessarily mean long, and there's enough sources here to write an encyclopaedia article on.

There is substantial info in the article which should not be lost by merely redirecting. Looking at the suggested redirect target, it doesn't look easy to merge substantial information to there, although perhaps a good amount could be put into a large footnote there. I prefer "Keep". --Doncram ( talk , contribs ) 20:04, 15 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment The nomination asserts that the article EMD E9 claims 42 "are preserved". In fact the article was claiming that "42 survive today" which is different. And, "today" was apparently in the year 1997. This edit in 2019 removed mention of the source ("Andrew Toppan's list") and the fact that the list was prepared in 1997. So TODAY, in 2023, 26 years later, we may presume many fewer survive and perhaps even fewer can be said to be preserved (by significant restoration). I wonder, did the deletion nominator know the claim was bad? In retrospect, their wording in the nom implies doubt. I am restoring that mention of the 1997 Andrew Toppanm (whatever that is), but I also wonder how many other sources were removed in bad editing before and since. --Doncram ( talk , contribs ) 11:39, 17 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] So TODAY, in 2023, 26 years later, we may presume many fewer survive and perhaps even fewer can be said to be preserved (by significant restoration). That's both speculation and original research. And even if this were the one and only preserved E9 (which it verifiably isn't), that doesn't make it automatically notable. All I said was that EMD E9 claimed 42 survive, or were you expecting me to go and verify the exact number of E9s which are preserved? This locomotive still does not meet GNG.

Umro Ayyar - A New Beginning: This is also done with the guidelines for accepting drafts via AFC process. However, another editor questioned my acceptance with the opposing question of this article not meeting GNG, as well as a prior work of socks. I told him to take it to AFD for a formal discussion yet he chose to ignore that and sincerely wanted to investigate more. The problem is that there haven't been any problem I can see about this article and being created via AFC is a handful way of seeking a second review otherwise opinion. I have brought it here for a formal discussion, and still maintain keep ing the article. Safari Scribe Edits!

Talk! 21:11, 11 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] SafariScribe , Sorry, but I want to remind you of two points: 1) The article wasn't created via AFC and wasn't even submitted for review. 2) I didn't sincerely wanted to investigate more . As I mentioned on your tp , this AFD was unnecessary and I have little hope it will result in deletion. As I've mentioned on your tp, the AFD process can now feel like a lottery. Anyway, you could have sent it back to the draft namespace, but you decided to take it to AFD, which was your choice. — Saqib ( talk I contribs ) 21:46, 11 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : I see no issue. It meets WP:NFO criteria #1 and WP:NFILM /GNG in general (see: [10] [11] [12] [13] etc.). This is perfectly fine in mainspace from what I can see. The purpose of AfC is "[...] to identify which submissions will be deleted and which won't." I imagine this article will survive deletion because of the amount of coverage it has received. (Semi-)unrelated, I would not recommend moving an article accepted by AfC back to draftspace: Although it doesn't technically violate WP:DRAFTOBJECT (because in this case the reviewer would have been the one to move it back), it could very easily confuse the newer editor who created it. C F A 💬 22:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : I don't plan to vote for deletion because I don't want others to think I'm on a deletion spree, but I do want to point out that the article was created in violation of the WMF Terms of Use's prohibition of UPE. The fact that it was created by a WP:SLEEPER account as well SPA Wahab98 ( talk · contribs ) who has been trying to create an article on this topic since joining WP back in 2022, ( see this , this , this ) leads me to believe involvement of WP:UPE. The fact that different WP:UPE IPs ( Special:Contributions/217.165.8.38 and Special:Contributions/223.123.5.5 ) started editing and defending the article as soon as it was moved to the main namespace and the fact that articles on the same topic have been repeatedly created under different titles by different accounts associated with different UPE sock farms such as Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/StayCalmOnTress (Nauman335), Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Taiyabi/Archive and Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Scudo Lives Once/Archive at Draft:UmroAyyar A New Beginning , Umro Ayyar - A New Beginning , Draft:Umro Ayyar - A New Beginning , Draft:Umro Ayyar- A New Begining etc. I really have no issue with an article on this topic being created, but it should be done by an established editor with a credible editing history, not by a WP:SLEEPER/SPA Wahab98 . — Saqib ( talk I contribs ) 22:50, 11 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] And not only on this wiki, but the same WP:UPE sock farm recently resorted to creating an article on this topic on the Simple EN WP, out of desperation. — Saqib ( talk I contribs ) 20:02, 12 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep It's basically a start-class article at this point, but enough reviews noted that appear to be from good sources to meet notability. I've removed a bit of the gratuitous name-dropping and fluff, at this point, I doubt there's much junk from the UPE editor. Ravensfire ( talk ) 00:27, 12 July 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Saqib's reservations are genuine but I think the topic is notable.
