Do not appear to meet WP:BAND, and a search for sources, once false hits referring to the Gone With the Wind character are screened out, elicits only a single writeup [1] in their local McAllen, Texas newspaper... Boogerpatrol (talk) 21:15, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I'll stick my neck out and cast my opinion. Band was fairly short lived, releasing one album Lost in Existence ...which seems to fall below the notability threshold too! They then seemed to swindle from existence. The one article we have of any substance is in their town newspaper. Most of the subsequent announcements seem to have stemmed from Facebook and MySpace. Until they get established they're probably not notable enough for Wikipedia. Sionk (talk) 23:16, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jack of all trades, master of none. A list of bit parts in TV shows, and various other claims, none of them by themselves providing notability, and I don't see any cumulative passing of WP:GNG either.

Contested prod. I can't find enough citations (under either D. N. Rahni or D. Nabirahni) to justify a pass of WP:PROF#C1, and he doesn't seem to pass the other criteria either. Additionally, the article is an autobiography, and its history of being edited by single-purpose accounts suggests that some sockpuppetry may also be involved. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:24, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This page has been created for personal vanity. The person listed in this article is not a well known hockey player or celebrity. Within the article you will see fabricated quotes, purely for humor purposes, with fake references attributed to them. References 1-7 are invalid to the content they are supplied to support.

  • Delete Not notable: person exists and the main facts of his career seem to be true, but without any coverage to meet WP:GNG and not successful enough for notability via WP:NHOCKEY. Article was created in 2009 by OReilly7, whose only other contributions are adding a reference to Powers to the page on Marty Reasoner (a more successful player who played alongside Powers for Boston College) and adding Powers as an alumnus to his high school's page. Page is an obvious example of OReilly7 writing a bio of a friend. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:14, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This article meets the standard for inclusion because is does "provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline or the sport specific criteria" as required by WP:NSPORTS. Powers specifically meets criteria #3 of WP:NHOCKEY for having played 209 games in the ECHL. He also won the 2000-01 Central Hockey League award for community service, which might not be a major award, but it does demonstrates that this player attracted league wide attention, and was not just a nobody. He also received stand-out recognition during his college career as Boston College's Most Improved Player of 1997-98. The reason that we have NHOCKEY is because a consensus of editors have decided that an ice hockey player is presumed notable if he has reached certain milestones in his career. This player has reached and surpassed that established criteria. The article is now well sourced to verify this player's professional career and accomplishments. By virtue of NSPORTS, it can be presumed that additional sources exist, which would be located with a proper search of non-internet hard-copy sources. But time is in short supply for all of us editors, which is why the standards of WP:NSPORTS exist. Dolovis (talk) 19:21, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In other words, you are completely unable to satisfy GNG. Resolute 23:20, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No, in other words what I am saying is that if I had a microfiche reader and access to newspapers and magazines from the period he was active, then GNG could be demonstrated. The presumption of notability has been met, and nothing you have put forth rebuts that presumption. By your argument, virtually all pre-2000 athletes (yes, including many major league, olympic, and other non-disputably notable athletes) would fail GNG. That is why NSPORTS exists. As it is, the references shown within the article are probably enough to statisify GNG, and in any event he explicitly meets the criteria of NHOCKEY. Dolovis (talk) 17:53, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I don't understand why it would be necessary for this person to meet the GNG if he already meets NHOCKEY. NSPORTS states "The article must provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline or the sport specific criteria set forth below." The "or" looms large here it would seem to me. Nowhere is it stated that GNG must be met in addition to NHOCKEY. I would bet dollars to donuts we could find NHL and/or Olympic players who meet NHOCKEY while failing GNG, probably quite a few, yet I doubt we could reach consensus to delete any of them. I also fail to see how deleting the page would further the interest of the project as a whole. In any case, there seems to be agreement that he does, in fact, meet the requirements of NHOCKEY. If GNG must be met regardless of NHOCKEY then what is the purpose of NHOCKEY? Rejectwater (talk) 19:22, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • NHOCKEY/NSPORTS only presumes that a player who meets specific criteria has been the subject of sufficient reliable source coverage so as to pass WP:GNG. Since it is based on arbitrary statistics, the criteria simply cannot guarantee that such coverage exists. Its purpose, as Dolovis alludes to, is to create that presumption on the expectation that sources will eventually be found. It does not, however, create blanket immunity from having that presumption challenged. And yes, someone could AFD an NHL player. But given my extensive personal library, including a book that profiles every player in NHL history up to 2003, coupled with the abundance of online sources, newspaper archives that I know exist (as opposed to Dolovis pretending exists), I could show a GNG pass on an NHL player without breaking a sweat. What this AFD is doing, is asking interested editors to show a GNG pass for Andy Powers. That means demonstrating the existence of multiple reliable sources that cover the individual in detail and are independent of the subject (and his employer bios do not count). The truth is, we are not talking about an NHL player here, but one who played in low-level minor leagues. The coverage of this individual - or lack thereof - reflects this. Resolute 19:34, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • With all due respect, I don't think the size of your library is the issue here. However, in a separate discussion, isaacl has brought to my attention Wikipedia:Notability (sports)/FAQ#Q2 which answers the main question I had. "[T]he subject must still eventually meet the general notability guideline." What appears to be at the heart of this discussion is a misunderstanding of how to apply NHOCKEY in determining notability, which is due at least in part to a vital piece of policy being squirreled away in an FAQ. Regards, Rejectwater (talk) 19:58, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • It should be pointed out that Wikipedia:Notability (sports)/FAQ#Q2 goes on to state: "For subjects in the past where it is more difficult to locate sources, it may be necessary to evaluate the subject's likely notability based on other persons of the same time period with similar characteristics" (i.e. the criteria of NHOCKEY which establishes the presumption of notability as decided by a consensus of editors knowledgeable on the topic). Dolovis (talk) 20:07, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • The other persons to compare him to would be professional ice hockey players who have played 5 years of minor professional hockey in North America. Do you require a list of names, and if so, how many names do you want? Dolovis (talk) 20:42, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • More accurately, it would be a list of players who played similar years of low minor professional hockey around the same time this player did. "Similar characteristics", after all. And like this case, the names you would have to come up with would have to demonstrate GNG passes. I would be most interested to see if you can demonstrate that we can expect most players who appeared in say 4-6 seasons of ECHL or lower hockey, in the internet age, have sufficient RS coverage. Resolute 20:48, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Note the first sentence in WP:NSPORTS is as follows: "This guideline is used to help evaluate whether or not a sports person or sports league/organization (amateur or professional) will meet the general notability guideline, and thus merit an article in Wikipedia." The third paragraph states:
Please note that the failure to meet these criteria does not mean an article must be deleted; conversely, the meeting of any of these criteria does not mean that an article must be kept. These are merely rules of thumb which some editors choose to keep in mind when deciding whether or not to keep an article that is on articles for deletion, along with relevant guidelines such as Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:Reliable sources.
The FAQ simply re-states this again, using different language. isaacl (talk) 23:31, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: There should be no reasonable doubt that a player who has played over 200 ECHL games will meet the notability criteria of GNG (he easily passes NHOCKEY), but given that he played in the pre-Internet era, sources are naturally more difficult to locate. Nonetheless, numerous, but brief, references found on-line might be enough to pass GNG: [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] If not, then please USERFY this article in my namespace so I can continue to look for sources per GNG. 17:32, 8 October 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dolovis (talkcontribs)
    1 is his employer bio. 2 is a trivial mention. 3 is a trivial mention. 4 is a trivial mention. 5. a freewebs fansite? Are you kidding me? 6 is a trivial mention. 7 is a trivial mention. 8 is a trivial mention. 9 is a trivial mention. Are you sensing the pattern here, Dolovis? This is all just routine coverage, and very brief mentions. Also, in what universe is a pro career that spanned between 1999 and 2004 "pre-internet era"? And finally, keep in mind that userfication is meant to be a temporary measure. If you get it done this way and nothing happens, I will MfD the userfied version. Resolute 18:46, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Meets WP:NHOCKEY. As pointed out, his playing days predate the world wide web of online sources. For those with Highbeam access, there's plenty of coverage about him. Much of it can be classified as routine sports coverage which would not go towards notability. I did find this article in which Powers is one of a few players featured for Beanpot (ice hockey). This covers him in the context of being on the BC top line. This features him in the context of a playoff game. These types of results from Highbeam lead me to conclude that many more offline sources could be found to satisfy general notability. -- Whpq (talk) 17:14, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete There seems to be mentioning of sources from the "pre internet" era that would justify this article. I've searched the Factiva database, which covers newspapers and some sport literature for this period and found NO mentions of him. Secondly, his career was in the early 2000's, which is not pre web/internet in any case Deathlibrarian (talk) 23:45, 12 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing notable about it. Geschichte (talk) 15:43, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Is there any reason why this shouldn't be merged with Stord, as is standard practice for primary schools and as I suggested when contesting WP:PROD deletion? Phil Bridger (talk) 16:23, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or redirect. Primary schools, other than in unusual circumstances (not extant here), are not sufficiently notable to have wp pages. As to a merge -- there is nothing supported by refs, and therefore nothing to merge ... in the article, in the form it is in and was in when AfD was started. So merge is not appropriate (we don't recreate challenged ref-less text, in violation of wp:v). Even a redirect is of questionable utility, as it simply informs the reader of the name of the island on which the primary school exists, which is of a rather low level of utility.--Epeefleche (talk) 22:05, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. An editor has suggested that it be merged into the movie article. I would have redirected it, but the movie article doesn't even mention the station. I don't care much, but it doesn't seem to me that it's even sufficiently notable to merge as there would have to be some reliable sources attesting to its notability besides the synopsis at IMDb. Bbb23 (talk) 15:42, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment As one who has heard of Alien(s), but has never seen any of it/them, my opinion is that this isn't worth redirecting or being a stand-alone article. It's a place where someone lives, so far as I can tell. It's not an essential part, unlike the planetoid or the ships. The editors of the technical section don't seem to have considered it important from the crafting point of view, and the editors of the story line here seem to have missed it out, while I noticed one mention at IMDb. I could have missed things. There would need to be more than IMDb as reference anyway. Peridon (talk) 17:26, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Gateway station has a fairly minor role in the film as far as the plot was concerned. It is the place where Ellen Ripley was in hospital, and where she lived and worked before embarking on the Sulaco to go on a bug hunt. As a fictional space station it is very unremarkable (my opinion), and is unlikely to get much third party comment about it.Martin451 12:21, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. A little more history. I speedy deleted one of the three articles created by the relative, which got me to looking at the others. I thought that Y.Adinarayana Reddy had enough in it to get past an A7, so I didn't tag it. Instead, I BLPPRODed it, stupidly not realizing that the person was no longer alive. That got me into an unnecessary tussle with the creator. I then tried to tag it with normal maintenance templates, but they removed them. However, I felt uncomfortable battling over it given my initial error, so I asked Tito for help. He's much more knowledgeable about the subject matter than I am, anyway.

Unfortunately the young lady lacks notability in the Wikipedia sense, despite being immensely notable and important to those who came into contact with her and who loved her. I understand why an article has been placed here, but Wikipedia is not a memorial site. It is with regret that I submit this article for discussion regarding retention or deletion.

  • Delete - subject cannot be notable for being a cancer sufferer alone, and is not the only victim of illness who has created a YouTube account or started up a blog or vlog - these are fairly easy to set up. A crucial point might be the number of subscribers, followers or internet "hits" on either her Instagram or YouTube accounts. However, the maximum quoted in the article is 35,000, which, to me, appears unremarkable. Her stated "bonding" with fellow "internet celebrity" Talia Castellano should be discounted 1) as there is no case for a 'reflected notability', and 2) it is questionable whether Castellano's page should exist anyway, in similar fashion to this subject's article. While we should have the utmost sympathy for the subject, there is no discernible notability evident here. Ref (chew)(do) 23:56, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Rename Anti-Administration party - the proper-noun capitals suggest this was a formal political party whereas the lede (and sources) suggest it was an informal grouping/coalition. There seems to be enough sources to substantiate an article but we shouldn't be suggesting it was a formal political if it wasn't. Stalwart111 13:38, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I would be fine with a renaming of the article to remove the proper nouns and to edit the non-lede sections where appropriate so not as to give the impression that this was an organized political party as opposed to an informal faction. Holdek (talk) 21:24, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTSTATS violation. A similar list to this, related to MotoGP, was deleted by AfD a month or two ago (can't remember the exact title). This is just a list of results for cars that used Yamaha engines; as such, they are not "Yamaha Grand Prix results". In fact, the title is also misleading; when I first saw it, I thought this was going to refer to MotoGP, not Formula One, as that is where Yamaha enter as a constructor. Article is unreferenced, has been tagged as failing GNG since March, and is orphaned. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 08:03, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This is a table supporting a short paragraph in the Yamaha Motor Company article but does not work as a standalone article. A merge would certainly unbalance the article. On the face of it the table suggests a pretty woeful record in the sport, but without analysis that might be wholly misleading as there could be many more reasons for retirement than engine failure. It is conceivable that Yamaha's venture into car racing would be a suitable topic in its own right but not under this title. --AJHingston (talk) 11:51, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • [17] is a pretty good analysis of the Yamaha F1 saga, although it is obviously neglecting the tail end of 1996 and the whole of 1997. The Yamahas were never strong engines; initially they were reliable enough, but lacking in power, and then they destroyed the reliability looking for more power. :) Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 13:07, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There is certainly a story here. In its way, your remarks tell us far more than either the brief para in the main article or the table here. An analysis of the results (eg, in what proportion of starts did the engine blow up?) rather than the raw data would be quite useful in something covering the venture, because this is not a case where the results can safely speak for themselves. There are lots of reasons for a DNF. And of course it lacks the wider perspective of the Formula. --AJHingston (talk) 13:31, 17 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable neologism, seemingly coined to facilitate original research and synthesis boiling down to a tu quoque argument; also used to house arguments which pretend that white flight was done for benign reasons and did not have a racist component. Orange Mike | Talk 23:09, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep with a very strong recommendation of a rewrite. Although I agree with Orangemike's analysis of this article, the term is attested back to at least 1975, according to Google News, and the term seems to have notability independent of the POV/OR/NEO use in this article. These systemic issues will require this article to be rewritten from scratch, but I think a credible article could be written on this topic. Incubation is also acceptable, as it might result in more attention than slapping half a dozen cleanup templates on a mainspace article. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:01, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - "White Flight" is a bit of journalistic doggerel to describe the same phenomenon here — the outmigration of jobs and middle- to upper-income families from American urban centers. I suspect that the correct answer here is a retitling of White Flight and a merge of Black Flight, with redirects left from each of those neologisms. Now, what's the "correct" title for this socioeconomic phenomenon? That I don't know. I suggest that if this puzzle can't be solved, leaving this "Black Flight" information intact is a far preferable solution than deletion. But I think that's a second, lesser option to solving the puzzle. Is there a sociologist in the house? Carrite (talk) 15:26, 25 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This article seems to fail WP:NOTNEWS and WP:ROUTINE. While October snowstorms are not extremely common, they are definitely not unheard of. The deaths related to the storm were all from a single traffic accident, and other than breaking a few local snowfall records (which are not notable on their own and not notable here in the aggregate, as I have not found anything indicting widespread record-breaking) here was nothing unique about this system. The article is merely a two-sentence stub with an infobox that does not indicate how this storm was anything more special than a typical snow-storm.

Keep - I disagree with the notion to delete this article. While yes, it is true that October snowstorms are not uncommon across the United States, ones of this magnitude are. Totals are measured by the feet in much of southwestern South Dakota; winds gusted to near hurricane force. Dozens of residents were stranded on the road, thousands upon thousands remain without power to this day. In addition, this same storm complex spawned a tornado outbreak farther west. A tornado passed through Wayne, Nebraska, and was rated an EF4, one of a handful of such caliber in October. Yesterday, flash flooding became an issue across Kentucky. Over a dozen water rescues were necessary and hundreds needed assistance. As for the shape of article, I'm truly sorry.

Keep based on WP:PROD. Refer to WP:Civil and try to see the other side of the argument. I removed the deletion notice on the article because it was a red link, but it seems it has been relisted (or it was a glitch). The way you are patronizing Crmmike (and me) makes it seem like you have a personal problem with the artist at hand. You're better off doing your best to improve the article rather than trying to delete it. My only problem with the article is that half of the refrences are from this uprox blog thing and the discography should be a bit cleaner than mixtape fodder.

  • Delete The book exists, Google Books has a bio/bibliotex page bu no sample pages,etc. I think this is whole CopyVio page, but can't prove it. It reads like WP:OR at the moment, with a single source, which is also suspect as it's about Etruscan architecture, which may be linked into the article context somehow, but may not be linked. It doesn't have much in the way of entry context. It looks as though it's been copied from the book, with entry/exit summaries between paragraph's to link each logical section. The author has another article, which reads similarly, but has a raft of sources, and decent initial context.

Comment I think the trouble with that is that (beyond the fact that eg Mike Wagner (musician) doesn't even mention the band at all) there is circular notability going on, where the musicians are notable because of having been in two notable bands, one of which is this one, which is notable because those musicians were in it. Pinkbeast (talk) 00:25, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The band does have 4 blue linked musicians but how many are independently notable?
Yishai Romanoff. Seems to only be notable as a member of two notable bands, this one included. So not notable independent of this band.
Dennis Donaghy. Same as above and also see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dennis Donaghy
Paul Alpert. Seems to only be notable as a member of three notable bands. His notability is entirely dependent on his bands, not really independently notable.

  • Delete Well, there's two reliable secondary sources. AllAfrica is presumably a small mention since the article is not about her. WestFM is better, but they helpfully tell us the article has only been viewed about 840 times, which is not a great sign of notability, looks like a local paper. I can't find much else. But even then there is the problem of one-event since winning this single contest appears all she is notable for. Finally, is winning a beauty contest on its own sufficient for notability.. probably not unless it was a very high profile contest, in which case WP:GNG would easily pass. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 21:12, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Using scholarly sources, which are easily finable on Google Books, for example, this could be rewritten and expanded. I do support removal of promotional links to a book; it sadly appears that the creator is primarily interested in advertising his/her work rather than contributing to an encyclopedia. Sigh.

Google News archives found results relevant to both Chuck Norris and his company but none of them seem to be sufficient to build a good article. Another search provided republished press releases for the company. The San Fernando Valley Buisness Journal and Santa Clarita Valley Business Journal are good but small mentions and thus also not much to build a good article even for the company instead of Tim Grayem.

  • weak delete We should not go by h factor alone. A person who has published 3 papers with 200 citations and 10 with 13 has a h factor of 13; so does someone who has published 13 papers, each receiving 13 citations--but their scientific notability is very different. In his case, the highest papers 3 listed with him as coworker, have 254, 192 and 154 citations. Such work would be notable if her were the principal researcher, but it seems from the article he is not.

Article doesn't meet Wikipedia's requirements for notability for authors under the creative professionals criteria for inclusion. Having two novels published with a small press, that is itself not notable, and a nonfiction personal memoir type book published with another small press, is not normatively notable in the publishing industry. Though this stub indicates she was 'nominated' for awards, she has never won or even placed in any notable literary contest or won any notable literary award. This article is similar to the article for Chelle Cordero, another author by the same small press publisher. Upon seeing both author stubs, it becomes evident, at least to me, that these authors were probably entered into Wikipedia by their publisher in an effort to promote them. With the proliferation of indie authors and small presses that come and go on the internet, Wikipedia should strive to maintain its high standards for vetting articles for inclusion, lest all published authors with small presses deem notability for Wikipedia entries.

Upon researching the publisher itself after seeing these stub bios, it's easy enough to see that this small press publisher is also coming under some scrutiny recently with accusations by multiple authors of unpaid royalties, fraud, breech of contract, copyright infringement and other accusations. While one cannot say if there is any merit to these claims, multiple authors have left the company recently. Perhaps an article about the publisher and these issues is warranted? Even with the accusations, I'm not sure if the publisher and its alleged actions are notable enough for inclusion. I'll leave that far more experienced Wikipedians than I.

  • Comment (see below) -- Routledge is not in any way a small press, but a major figure in academic writing. That's not in itself enough to put it over the top for keep for me (the nominator seems to be correct about the other presses). What would make a decision either way for me is how many books get nominated in each category for the LA Times book award? If it's essentially a runner up status (like an academy award nomination), I think that there's enough here to keep, because it is a sufficiently notable award that even runner up would be enough. If it's more like the Pulitzer Prize, where anyone can be nominated, then I think the subject is just below the notability line unless more information is uncovered. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 15:37, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • move to Weak Delete per arguments of Green Cardamom -- I'd still argue that with the Routledge pub, a win of the LA award would be enough, but the low holdings for the poetry books and with no verification of the significance of the nomination for the LA award, I don't see enough. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 21:27, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Unable to confirm the book was nominated for the LA award, much less in what capacity (short? long? submitted?). The LA award is not hugely important on its own, much less a nomination only. If it won best poetry, that would be significant, but then we need multiple awards to pass AUTHOR. I can't find much in the way of reviews. Furthermore her books are very rare, Like All We Love is only held in two libraries (one being her own university). LibraryThing with 1.7 million members records only 2 people with Like All We Love, Negotiating the Self has three members, these are very low numbers by LT standard. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 20:02, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I reluctantly agree that the subject's novels and poetry do not seem to show notability, though it looks more than possible that without the relative lack of popular attention to (and consequent systemic bias against) poetry, the poetry would be notable. The awards record falls a little short - for instance, she seems to have been nominated for the Lambda Awards but not shortlisted. However, while her name makes searching difficult, there is some chance that she meets WP:PROF - GScholar shows no fewer than 94 cites for Negotiating the Self and lower but still significant rates for some other books and articles probably coauthored by her rather than another K. Evans. And her apparent research areas (LGBT studies, education, creative writing) are not ones where citation rates tend to be high. Finally, I find it very difficult to assume good faith about this nomination. The nominator's entire editing history consists of three deletion nominations, all of them of authors or books published by Vanilla Heart Publishing, who the nominator implies have written the articles - a suggestion that can immediately be rejected by looking at the articles' histories. And this one (unlike the others) shows no obvious signs of having been edited by the subject either. In all other respects, Vanilla Heart's reputation as a publisher has no bearing on whether or not this article should be kept. PWilkinson (talk) 11:20, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • PWilkinson -- thank you for bringing up these important points -- I am keeping my revised comment (though changed to "Weak delete" which is what I intended in the first revision). I agree that there is a bias against poetry publication in general; something that Wikipedia unfortunately, is not the right forum to address. But the second systematic bias, against poets having articles on WP is something that we can address, and I have tried to weigh in, with what little knowledge I do have of poetry presses and poetry awards, to try to work against that bias (I've been the primary "keep" proponent of two poetry bios that looked to be heading for delete this year but were instead kept). There is also bias against LGBT studies on WP, which needs to be addressed; and the nominator's potential bias needs to be taken into account. However, the holdings for "Negotiating" (240 libraries) seems to be just below the cut-off for meeting WP:PROF (or a writing notability criteria) in itself. My thought is that the author will almost certainly do enough work soon to be enough to be a clear keep and hope to help argue for the keep when it happens, but at present only the Routledge book seems to argue for keeping and a single work that is at the borderline of notability does not seem enough. It's really tough -- there's a review in JSTOR and 8 citations there (several others are for other publications called "Negotiating the Self"); I just think there needs to be a bit more -- the LA Award nomination if it could be shown to be notable would be enough. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 00:50, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. That the article starts out "a prize winning author" when she has not won any prizes is not reassuring. Being nominated for a prize is not the same as winning a prize , and, save for such exceptions as the Booker shortlist, does not confer notability., considering publication of her novels, which have essentially no library holdings. There is no evidence her poetry is included in anthologies. Her books on teaching, Negotiating the self : identity, sexuality, and emotion in learning to teach, & Pathways through writing blocks in the academic environmenthas respectable library holdings, but I don't think enough to show notability as an academic.

Non-notable genealogical entry, sourced to self-published family narratives. See WP:NOTGENEALOGY. Cindy(talk) 15:45, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Brigadier-General is a general rank and is not insignificant. Barney the barney barney (talk) 21:09, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment. I guess I should have been more thorough here. The notability guidelines for military personnel can be found at WP:MILMOS/N. The subject did not serve as a general in the Regular Army (directly following the Continental Army), but rather served as major and/or colonel from 1813-1815. (Depending on which narrative is supported, he either enlisted as a major or colonel. The article also states that he "must have" also held a lower rank of captain, but I'm unable to find a source.) The article at brigadier general does not actually reflect the equivalent of the modern rank by the same name in the US during this time period. The subject also never commanded a division or larger (or their equivalent) during combat. At the same time, a search for reliable sources to establish notability in accordance with the notability guidelines at WP:MILMOS/N came up empty. Note that these guidelines additionally state that a "person who is only mentioned in genealogical records or family histories, or is traceable only through primary documents, is not notable". Best regards, Cindy(talk) 00:38, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • The guideline is WP:SOLDIER. While that has its problems, it does note that general rank officers should be included. Barney the barney barney (talk) 10:54, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment. Yes, WP:SOLDIER is the shortcut to the same content. However, it doesn't state that general rank officers should be included {or that the rank indicates notability). It says that if there is a rank of general, then there will almost always have sufficient coverage. It also goes on to say that a "person who is only mentioned in genealogical records or family histories, or is traceable only through primary documents, is not notable". In this case, threshold for meeting the GNG has not been met, due to the lack of significant reliable and independent sources. All the sources offered are mere genealogical, family narratives.

  • Weak keep. Most of the coverage is local and if it was just local, I'd say delete. However he has received some coverage in other sources such as Vice and The Retroist that push it to a weak keep for me. On a side note, I cleaned the article up since it was more akin to a fan page than an encyclopedic entry. I removed the HuffPo article since it wasn't really a RS and the video wasn't such an accomplishment that we could really show that it was something that would keep the article. I also want to let people know that this isn't decided on a vote and that any "keep" arguments must, must, must follow guidelines and show notability per WP:BAND. You can see examples of what doesn't count as a valid argument at WP:NOT. Also as a side note, the documentary itself isn't necessarily a thing that would show notability, as it hasn't really gotten a lot of coverage in and of itself. It was a selection at some film festivals, but never seems to have gotten any notice aside from the Pittsburgh area papers, which is an issue. What it all boils down to in the end is coverage. There is the possibility of coverage that isn't on the Internet, so if anyone coming in has the ability to dig for offline sources, please do so.

    • This village is still non-notable. No sources cover ‘Dehla Chattha’ village. According to WP:GNG:
If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list.
  • "Significant coverage" means that sources address the subject directly in detail, so no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention but it need not be the main topic of the source material.[1]
And here the issue is that no source covers the subject, so it fails the very first requirement for being notable. And as to verifiability, agreed with DGG.Шαмıq тαʟκ @ 19:08, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I am not sure that an organisation that appears to operate across a state with a population only just short of that of the United Kingdom - and half as large again as that of California - should really be dismissed as "local". And there are a fair number of available sources, though I have not spotted any substantial ones - the article title, by the way, is wrong or at least not the standard spelling of the organisation's name - the usual spelling seems to be Rashtrotthana Parishat (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL). Also, as with many Indian topics, not all reliable sources are likely to be in English. Having said that, though, I am not at all sure of how much notability it has independently of its parent organisation Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh.

  1. ^ Examples: The 360-page book by Sobel and the 528-page book by Black on IBM are plainly non-trivial. The one sentence mention by Walker of the band Three Blind Mice in a biography of Bill Clinton (Martin Walker (1992-01-06). "Tough love child of Kennedy". The Guardian. In high school, he was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice.) is plainly trivial.
