  • Keep. Very common and notable phrase in literature, media, etc. Thousands of hits in RSes, centrepiece of every Jane Austen novel, several books with it in the title, newspapers write lists of "Britain's most eligible bachelor", etc... what's the argument for it not being notable, exactly? Also a distinct concept from bachelor and confirmed bachelor, as should be obvious from simply reading the articles. Joe Roe (talk) 16:32, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I don't know what the nom meant by "unnotable" ("non-notable", perhaps?), but "eligible bachelor" satisfies WP:N, and that's what matters. If the nom wishes to merge the content of this article into Bachelor, AfD is not the place to propose that. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 19:22, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unable to find any Reliable Sources for this school JMHamo (talk) 23:35, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

User:Kudpung may be right about the article being misnamed or the school no longer existing. The Classmates.com link is actually for "Lutheran East High School", of Harper Woods, MI, not "Lutheran High School East". However, there is an alumni reunion scheduled for October 22nd, 2016, and the school reportedly has 2,180 alumni. --doncram 20:21, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The Wikipedia article Notre Dame High School (Harper Woods, Michigan) states that the school was closed in 2004 (and I have now repeated that unsourced assertion in this article). This is not inconsistent with the football team's record linked by User:Clarityfiend, which provides its win-loss records for 2002 and 2003. --doncram 20:36, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Keep. Comment: Changing my vote again to 'delete' based on further research done by John from Idegon and myself. There is decidedly something odd about this article. Such a school does not appear to exist. at least not under the name provided. There is a Lutherian High School, and there is a Harper Woods High School run by the Harper Woods School District, and there are other Lutheran High Schools in Mitchigan but none in Harper Woods and there is no Lutheran High School East (Michigan) in any Ghits. It's possible that the school once existed but has merged, moved, renamed or even closed down but util a street addresss can be found, I'm changing my vote to a neutral comment. The article Made in 1 edit by an SPA and could use some expansion and layout per WP:WPSCH/AG by someone willing.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 12:50, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep - article shouldn't have been nominated. Meets minimum requirements for notability for a school. Sure does need work tho. John from Idegon (talk) 16:38, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, further. Kudpung and myself spent an extensive amount of time today researching this school. The only thing either of us found was this, a timeline from the website of the Lutheran school association of Detroit. It did verify the school's creation being branched off another school and clarified it's demise, being merged into another school in 2004. However, there was just one line simply stating each of those bare facts (even disregarding the lack of independence). Further issues: neither the original school, the school this one was folded into, nor the church's regional education association have an existing article. After extensive searching by two experienced editors, nothing more than that was found. Perhaps others would have different results. I've never done this before and probably never will again, but despite guidelines and outcomes, there is not enough to create an article on this school and no reasonable place to redirect it. I'm changing my vote to Delete Redirect, per doncram and thanks to him.

  • Delete - fails WP:VERIFY and WP:GNG, as John's research shows. Cordless Larry (talk) 21:06, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Thank you to John from Idegon and Kudpung for applying good effort. But this AFD, headed towards "Delete", is going off the rails, relative to what should happen IMHO. Deletion would simply go backwards, and would have persons arriving at Wikipedia and restarting the article, because it is a valid topic. It would "forget" everything figured out here, including that redirecting to Lutheran High School Association (at this moment of writing a red-link, but not for long) would be fine. So find an alternative (wp:ATD) that keeps edit history and discussion, including a Talk page link to this AFD... I'm creating LHSA as a stub and then this AFD should be closed as "Redirect" to there. Relatedly, please see Wikipedia talk:Deletion policy#Proposal: new "Merging to a list" section about expanding the Alternatives To Deletion guideline. --doncram 04:36, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the lecture Doncram but I know all about our deletion policies and alternatives to deletion (and OUTCOMES), which I regularly advocate myself. However, a school that does not exist or that cannot properly be identified as having existed can obviously not be a candidate for redirect - anywhere. Sorry. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 18:50, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Kudpung, I thought that your position, and the consensus emerging, was that there are not adequate sources to make a decent article, but that LHE certainly existed. So that you would agree a redirect is valid, if there is a suitable redirect target (but no redirect target seemed to exist, so then you would choose to delete instead). I think I am taking a broader view on the role of AFD. I think someone oughta take responsibility to create list-articles (as I argue at the linked proposal) and combo articles like the new LHSA article and/or whatever else is needed, in order to ensure retention of the information/content of contributions in question. I may have sounded critical of K and JfromI for not choosing to be that person, and to some extent I guess I really was critical. Please do accept my apology for that. I should be clear that the responsibility should be "the collective of AFD editors", not any one person's. I am willing to step up and be that person sometimes, as I did here, but I should not have blamed anyone else for not doing that. We are all volunteers, and I strongly believe that it is simply not right to demand that any one editor do any specific thing.
In conclusion, I want to eliminate AFD decisions like "delete because a needed target article does not yet exist" and to promote decisions like "someone needs to create at least a stub, and the AFD will not be closed until that is done" or "the AFD is closed with consensus that the topic should be kept until target article A has been created, and then it should be merged/redirected". --doncram 21:50, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

      With a 6-8-1 overall and 3-5 Metro Conference record, the Crusaders dealt with dramatic ups and downs all season. A loss to Harper Woods Lutheran High School East (15-2, 15-4) Jan. 28 dealt a blow to the team's morale.

Austin is from Bellevue, Nebraska, a suburb of Omaha, so the Omaha paper covering here win is local coverage. Even if we could consider this a reliable 3rd party source, we would only have one. The only source we have for her broadcasting career is a press release from her employer. Beyond this, winning a state beauty pageant is generally considered to be a one event occurance that does not justify having an article on the person John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:35, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Beyond her two attempts to win Miss Nebraska, the second one successful, she also competed in Miss USA. Since then she has gone on to a sports reporting career at NESN. That career has at least one notable incident, the Gatorade celebration (dismissed casually above) that was covered by numerous sportscasts. Trackinfo (talk) 09:09, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per Trackinfo --- PageantUpdater (talk) 09:23, 5 September 2016 (UTC) Weak keep per outcome of the RFC. There really isn't much out there. I suspect there would have been more about her Miss Nebraska USA year not currently available in general searches but without access to databases that's pure speculation. --- PageantUpdater (talk) 23:49, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Closure Comment - I originally closed as Redirect however TrackInfo had an issue and unbeknown to me they'd actually added sources to the article[3], They're pretty crap IMHO but regardless they should be discussed, If consensus is to redirect I strongly suggest an admin closes it as such. –Davey2010Talk 21:35, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment -- I do not consider the recent addition helping with the subject's notability:
  • In June 2016, when the Red Sox made an extra inning comeback against the White Sox, Austin was caught in the crossfire of the teams exuberant Gatorade celebration, and incident covered by sportscasters around the world.[1][2][3][4]

In short, you, K.e.coffman, have too high of standards to be commenting on beauty pageants. Your motive in voting against every contestant is clear. Trivia is in the eye of the beholder. Multiple sources reporting an incident add up to coverage of this subject fulfilling WP:GNG and that is our standard here. Your or my opinion do not matter in regards to the overall world view of importance. We report what the press reports about the subject. If enough of them think it is worthy of mention, trivia becomes a story. Please take your habitual negativity toward this entire subject elsewhere.

Fails WP:MUSIC with very limited secondary coverage. Please note MTV.com allows registered users and artists to create their own bio page and is not necessarily an indication of notability. Blackguard 21:17, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I put a link on the article from a notable songwriter and artist Instagram who posted about his album release. Soworship (talk) 21:27, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I added an instagram post about his release from a worship leader at my church, who was also a contestant on American Idol Season 13. Sharethemessage (talk) 22:08, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The worship leader having been on American Idol is irrelevant to this article, as notability is not inherited(and that's assuming they're notable). 331dot (talk) 22:15, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. My google searches turned up little beyond this person's social media accounts. No independent sources have been offered; the ones that have been are MTV(as stated by nominator), a blog post from this person's mom, and the iTunes listings of their music. I haven't yet seen how this musician meets notability guidelines. 331dot (talk) 22:15, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It is still other people mentioning Spenser with their own opinion. Soworship (talk) 22:19, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Anyone can post an opinion about anyone else on the Internet. We deal in what is notable and can be supported. I have asked you specifically which notability criteria for musicians this person meets and haven't really gotten an answer. 331dot (talk) 22:27, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

He meets the first criteria. I just added an article I found about him in a notable talent competition (IMTA) he competed in and made it to the finals. It talks a lot about him, and I added a paragraph to the article explaining his time there from research I did. I hope this solves our problems with this article. Thank you! Soworship (talk) 04:09, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. In my opinion, now that the article has the reference from that Casting Hub/IMTA article, it makes him notable enough. Because he does also have social media post about his album release from a notable artist/songwriter. The blog from his mom isn't perfect but it adds a touch more credit to the article as well. I think these three sources make him notable enough to keep. On the other hand, this article does seem to have some good information and is encyclopedic. 99.9.8.224 (talk) 04:24, 10 September 2016 (UTC) — 99.9.8.224 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
Please review what independent reliable sources are- the sources given are not that and as such are not acceptable. "Having good information" is not sufficient for an article without such sources. 331dot (talk) 10:40, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I just rewrote the bio using the MTV bio and one on his website as a reference. No more copyright issues. Thanks. Soworship (talk) 04:51, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

While you removed some of it, what remains is still lifted from MTV. It needs to be completely rewritten in your own words. You also don't seem to be understanding what independent reliable sources are, which are things like news stories or coverage that is not associated with this person in any way. 331dot (talk) 10:40, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: as per nom. No third-party references, looks like self-promotion, and google search doesn't turn up anything else to demonstrate notability. Melcous (talk) 05:54, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Does the IMTA article not qualify as a reliable source? Soworship (talk) 19:48, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Whether it is or not, it isn't enough to sustain this article. In most cases, multiple sources are needed, or at least one that supports notability. All that piece stated was that he showed up at their event, whose notability itself seems questionable. 331dot (talk) 23:53, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. No claim to notability made – as the nominator noted, Acts of Congress aren't inherently notable.

IgnorantArmies (talk) 09:14, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I actually looked for that on the off chance that might be true. It's not. From 2004-15, there's only three reports available from the State Dept. online, I think two of them aren't the report required by the Act, and the newest is 2010. The one I read was tremendously boring, and seriously reads like a high school social studies report. I could feel the Powerpoint slides turning as I read.

The result was Redirect as not only has there been no actual Delete votes, but there has been repeated consensus before that junior high schools themselves are not convincing for an independent article, and therefore can be relinked to a closely related article (NAC).

  • Keep Not a valid reason for deletion. The draft article was submitted and accepted, and has been worked on by more than one editor. As I told the editor before he opened this AFD, having one of the editors decide to get rid of it simply because the school does not want an article is not a valid reason for deletion. It's not vandalism, there are no BLP issues, I didn't notice any copyvio problems, it's sourced... the only possible reason I can see for a deletion discussion on this article is that it might not meet notability requirements.

  • Redirect - This is a junior high school. It does not meet WP:ORG. Per guidelines and WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, it should be redirected to Community Consolidated School District 15. The nomination is faulty in just about every way but that doesn't change the way we should deal with this article. Pinging Meters and TomStar81 for reconsideration. John from Idegon (talk) 16:20, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to district page. Changing from Keep to Redirect now that the nominator has changed [4] the invalid deletion reason to lack of notability. The majority of the sources are merely school district and parents' association info. There are two major media sources in the article, but a nearly quarter-century old mention of a redevelopment project does not confer notability. The almost as old mention of the air quality investigation is potentially more useful for showing notability, but I would want to see solid sources showing that the investigation showed a major problem before this would be notable. Old buildings often have poor ventilation, asbestos, and other issues that need to be addressed. That's not notable. Parents worrying about their children's environment is not notable. Mini clusters of diseases are not notable unless they can be attributed to a cause rather than simply to coincidence. Since there is no mention of a positive result from the investigation I don't see anything particularly notable about this. Meters (talk) 18:09, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Agree that the air quality thing is interesting and different and would make great content in a notable article. Disagree on it's potential to show notability. It's not about the school in general. It doesn't speak to academics, activities or athletics....In other words the things that make the school a school. The only reason it isn't NOTNEWS is the academic source, and I haven't checked the vetting on that. The Tribune is a more or less local source and what came out of it is not discussion in detail. On another point, I'd sure like to know how this passed AfC. John from Idegon (talk) 19:00, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Good point. Even if the environmental issue were fleshed out to show notability it would still be about the building rather than the school itself. Meters (talk) 19:33, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In the previous discussion one of the weak keeps essentially said "I do not think Losh is notable for winning Miss Florida USA, but if there is consensus that such makes someone notable, we should follow it." We clearly now have consensus developed that such absolutely does not make someone notable. Losh's other roles were even more non-notable.

The fact that this article plagued with "citation needed" and having no reliable sources at all, just a listing to IMDb (totally not reliable) and to whatever hometownlife is, can survive one deletion nomination and a reasonable redirect request just shows how flawed in favor of articles on totally unnotable people Wikipedia is.

  • Keep All claims of WP:BIO1E against almost all beauty pageant winners are invalid. They win a State or National title, then, separately go on to compete at the next higher level. Equate this to WP:NSPORT where every athlete has to qualify at their preliminary level before going to a major competition. In this case she won Miss Michigan and then competed in the Miss USA. Additional to her case, she also has a credited role in a major motion picture, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and was quoted in the New York Times supporting Donald Trump after the network coverage for her pageant was cancelled due to his racist comments about Mexicans while announcing for president.

  • Comment -- IMO, WP:BIO1E exactly applies. The state level winners may be notable for their state level win; but they are not notable for competing in the next level pageant, if they do not win. Miss America or Miss USA are not the Olympics :-). K.e.coffman (talk) 00:22, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment One of the keep votes above says "she had a credited role in Batman v. Superman:Dawn of Justice". Her role is listed as "beautiful woman". Having watched that film twice, that description gives me no clue as to where she appeared in the film. It is an extreme bit part. Not at all the stuff notability is made from. The Detroit Free Press article this is sourced from basically is "look, some local people are in a top billed film." Nothing in that references works towards notability. Especially since the mention to Wawrzyniak was a rushed one line mention even in the Free Press article. Also, being quoted in the NYT or anywhere else is not a sign of notability. What is needed to suggest passing GNG is indepth coverage, not a passing quote.John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:01, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Being "meritorious of being credited" is not at all any standard for inclusion of a person in Wikipedia, so I do not have to admit anything. I have zero memory of what her role was, so I don't have to admit anything. Actually, more to the point, the description tells us nothing. Having a the role as a character who lacks a name is almost universally a sign it is a very minor part. Having watched the film twice I know this is not an exception. Our notability guidelines say we need "significant" parts, which are almost never unnamed roles, not just "credited" roles. The only sources I could find on this were the Free Press article which is full of people whose role in the film is truly minor, and yet Wawzyniak gets even less coverage than the others, and IMDb, which is not a reliable source, and explicitly called a non-reliable source by our guidelines.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:37, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as the nomination is exact with saying why and how this article is a concern and how there's no inherited notability in and of itself of simply participating at a beauty pageant, therefore there's no presumed basis we should automatically keep this simply because of the beauty pageant events or awards themselves.

If I have ever seen an article that stands up and shouts "this person is not notable" this article is it. Other than cites directly connected to beauty pageants, the only sources here are from the local Thief River Falls paper. This is a town well under 10,000. We do not have any indication that any media in the state of North Dakota felt it was worth noting she had been crowned Miss North Dakota USA. Only the paper in her small home town, across the state line in Minnesota. Just to show how not in the public eyeMathson is, the article speaks of what her current employment is, based on an article written 10 years ago.

  • Keep. I distinclty remember it being widely used in the context of Starcraft, primarily associated with the Zerg race; searches of the term in relation to that game should provide some useful reliable sources. "Zerg rush" seems to be a popular thing, in fact the term is so significant that Google dedicated it an easter egg (look at this video if you don't have javascript enabled). Diego (talk) 20:21, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I do see more news articles mentioning the strategy now, but very few seem to go into any depth about it. The Wall Street Journal happens to give a dictionary definition, while summaries of high-level matches may make use of the word. PC Gamer mentioned it but didn't talk about it, while The Inquisitor indirectly does say something about the tactic, but drawing a conclusion from it would basically be original research on the editor's part. I'd still rather see this merged into the glossary and trimmed from its original research. If we find better sources, we can always apply them there, and it will always be possible to spin the article out again lateron. ~Mable (chat) 09:16, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Google Books provides a good number of further sources, which include further commentary and analysis of the tactic on players. [5][6][7][8][9]; one of them is a scholarly source that briefly explores its etymology [10]. None of that commentary fits in the VG glossary list article, which contains a very small blurb of text for each entry. Diego (talk) 10:44, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This article seems really problematic to me and I offer my condolences in advance to the admin who closes this debate. First of all, the article conflates the terms "alpha strike" and "rush"; I can see where the logic lies in that, but none of the cited references make this correlation, so that appears to be original research. Secondly, most of the sources are talking specifically about "Zerg rush", which is a term from the game Starcraft that bled through into wider nerd culture. I think there's an argument to be made for having a Zerg rush article (which exists as a redirect to the article in question as of now) but not the reverse. If this article is kept, the "alpha strike" content needs to be excised and moved somewhere else. A Traintalk 11:29, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That is an argument for a move, right? If you delete this one, there will be no content for an article at Zerg rush. If you agree that there's a notable topic here, its limits and proper title can be discussed at the article Talk. Diego (talk) 19:35, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry -- I didn't make my position very clear. I think the article ought to be deleted. If the article is kept then the article should be moved to Zerg rush, for which I think there is a slightly better argument. I'm not convinced that zerg rush merits an article of its own, but I could be persuaded. A Traintalk 11:42, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@A Train: What do you think of just merging this article into two items on the Glossary of video game terminology? ~Mable (chat) 12:56, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • The concept of Zerg rush clearly passes the GNG, with multiple independent coverage. What makes you think that the content referring to Zerg rush should be deleted? Diego (talk) 20:04, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have difficulty believing an article on Zerg rush could be more than two paragraphs long, though I would love to be proven wrong. ~Mable (chat) 20:59, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Subject is a Professor. He appears to fail WP:NACADEMICS, but it is a fairly narrow fail. I would go with a very weak delete at this time. I declined PROD as no valid reason was given on the PROD template and because I feel this warrants a discussion. Safiel (talk) 15:52, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Article was previously deleted at AfD, but that was ten years ago and he was a newly minted PhD at the time, making deletion the obvious choice. That is no longer the situation so the reasoning at the first AfD no longer applies. Safiel (talk) 15:55, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: The deleting editor referred at one point to "self-promotion". So I checked the edit history and sure enough Bauer himself twice edited the page:
once to correct the town and date of his birth
once to change the field of study list from category theory and homotopy theory to constructive mathematics and 3 other fields
If this counts as self-promotion then we are all subject to deletion.
Bauer was a principal researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study during their seminar on Homotopy Theory. In fact, he apparently wrote most of the report summarizing that major initiative in mathematical theory of higher categories. He has worked with Steve Awodey, Michael Shulman, Thierry Coquand, and other major figures. How is he not notable?--Toploftical (talk) 21:03, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The fact that he was a visiting scholar at a special semester at IAS does not make him notable -- that kind of thing is standard and happens to every moderately successful mathematician, usually on multiple occasions during their career. His mathematical footprint appears to have been fairly light thus far; MathSciNet gives him a grand total of only 105 citations, which is quite low. Presumably most of his work is in Computer Science, and GScholar give an h-index of 13; that's still pretty low, especially given that GScholar's h-index is an over-estimate as it includes citations to arXiv preprints and such. I looked at his webpage for more details, but I am not seeing anything else there to indicate notability per WP:PROF, such as journal editorships, named lectures, prizes/awards, etc. Just not seeing much here to hang one's hat on in terms of passing WP:PROF. Nsk92 (talk) 13:21, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I am Andrej Bauer. I have now been told by Class455 (on his talk page) that even adding my own date of birth to my page is a Conflict of Interest. This is completely absurd and it makes a travesty of Wikipeida. Wikipedia once again demonstrates that they care more about their bureaucracy than attracting well-meaning contributors who have better things to do in life than to memorize a thousand Wikipedia policies. Go ahead, delete the page. I'll be proud to have been deleted twice. And don't forget to delete the Slovenian version, too. Oh wait, perhaps there is a Wikipedia policy which states that I cannot vote about myself? AndrejBauer (talk) 13:48, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You need to climb down off your high horse. Yes, even an innocuous edit of the type you describe by definition constitutes WP:COI, but that is not a significant reason to delete the article. When properly disclosed and managed, and confined to minor non-promotional edits, COI is perfectly fine and is no reason for deletion. There are thousands of pages on Wikipedia of that kind and they exist with no significant problems. If you notice, neither of the Delete voters above (myself, Class455 and the nominator) brought up the COI issue as a reason to delete the article here in this AfD discussion. The real issue is notability, in the sense of satisfying WP:PROF or WP:BIO or WP:GNG. If you can make the case for satisfying the requirements of one of these notability guidelines, then by all means, please do so. But if you just want to feel like a martyr on the pyre of righteousness, then indeed you should head for the exit sign. Nsk92 (talk) 15:13, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So let me see if I understand this correctly. Providing my date of birth and field of work is a conflict of interest and/or self-promotion, but making a case for my own notability is not? Honestly? Just delete the page, please, and let this end. I made my opinion clear by casting my vote. I am not notable enough and I think you made a reasonable assessment. AndrejBauer (talk) 15:37, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"Providing my date of birth and field of work is a conflict of interest and/or self-promotion, but making a case for my own notability is not?" In a strictly formal sense, that's correct. WP:COI makes it clear that COI editing refers to editing of Wikipedia articles. Edits in project space, such as editing of talk pages of articles, AfD discussions etc, are not considered to be COI edits (provided, of course, the relation to subject of the article is properly disclosed). So, you can make a case in an AfD that you are notable; or you can make a case at the talk page of an article about yourself that some favorable piece of information about you should be included in the article. Doing that would be perfectly fine, although, of course, it won't guarantee that your argument will carry the day. Nsk92 (talk) 16:10, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete. Mathematics is a low-citation field so his citations on Google scholar don't give a convincing pass of WP:PROF#C1, but neither do they indicate any problem. And I think Bauer's own edits to the article can be discounted as an issue: they're the sort of thing anyone new to Wikipedia seeing an article about themself would do, and he's become aware of our autobiography policy and backed out the edits. The problem is, we don't have anything more than his position (full professor at a decent university) and citation record (good for pure mathematics but not enough to base a case for notability here) to go on. He's clearly a successful academic, and I think more accomplished than the median academic biography here on Wikipedia, but without verifiable evidence of notability I don't see how to argue to keep this article. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:22, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it may be cool computer art, but that's not a valid argument for keeping the article, it's basically a WP:ILIKEIT kind of argument. You need to argue on the basis of WP:PROF or WP:BIO or WP:GNG. Nsk92 (talk) 23:48, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree. I do not think WP:ILIKEIT applies here. I am not arguing about the article. I was just pointing out a source. The idea behind Random Art algorithm is extremely powerful. The program has been around for about 20 years and still attracts a lot of attention and produces remarkable effects by using a collection of simple rules. Very early it has been spotted as a prime example of hash visualization and user authentication through image recognition.Tomo (talk) 02:11, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete (although a weak one)
  1. The subject's field is Computational Mathematics which is one of the low cited fields in Computer Science. For this, I usually tend to look for an h-index > 20 as opposed to the > 30 in other fields like security and computer vision. The current h-index of 13 is a bit on the low side unfortunately, but will probably increase.
  2. I don't see significant coverage, so WP:PROF needs to be satisfied. Unfortunately, I'm unable to see the chair/distinguished professor requirement being fulfilled or significant coverage of any other research work. Neither are any of the other requirements satisfied.
I feel this is WP:TOOSOON right now but the subject may be notable in the future. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:48, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • This deletion was originally proposed by User 50.252.116.51 who is apparently the same person as User:William Of Orange–see "I have proposed this article for deletion William Of Orange 14:21, 24 August 2016" on Talk:Andrej Bauer. Both these user identities are throwaway user pages and were apparently created solely for making this single deletion nomination. I must admit, I am curious as to who this person is.
  • I am truly baffled as to why some people think this article should be deleted.

I will be glad to provide a list.--Toploftical (talk) 19:42, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • You need to offer something more than angry recriminations as a reason to keep the article. Specifically, you need to indicate how and why it satisfies some specific criteria of WP:PROF. In your post above you explained that Bauer has worked in several important modern fields. But you need to show that Bauer's contributions to those fields are widely regarded as important. In his case all we seem to have to go by at the moment is the citability data in GScholar (which gives him a fairly low h-index of 13), and in MathSciNet, which gives him a total of 107 citations. That's it, there is nothing else that I can see in terms of indicating passing WP:PROF: no prestigious awards, no journal editorships, no named or particularly prestigious lectures (like ICM talks), no named chair/professor appointments, no being elected fellow/member of scholarly societies, no publications in particularly prestigious journals (for Math things like Annals of Mathematics, Inventiones Mathematicae and the like), or anything of the sort. Compare that to some of the other names you mention above. Lets put aside someone as obviously famous as Vladimir Voevodsky and look at Thierry Coquand. GScholar gives him an h-index of 27, with top cited publications of 1425, 436, 305, 285, 249, 219. That alone would easily make him pass WP:PROF#C1. Then, according to his CV, he won a Wallmarska prize from the Swedish Royal Academy of Science in 2001, gave the Skolem Lecture in Oslo in November 2005, and was elected a member of the Royal Society of Arts and Sciences in Gothenburg in 2011. Plus he is an editorial board member of two journals, and was a guest editor of two special issues of journals. Perhaps that's an extreme case, but this is a very different picture from what we have in the case if Andrej Bauer, where, at least for the moment, nothing of the sort has been brought to light. Nsk92 (talk) 20:41, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • I should qualify my comments by saying that Tomo's post above might actually have been onto something. Part of Bauer's work seems to do with computer visualization and computer art. If he produced some program/software that is widely used and is influential, that fact wouldn't necessarily up in standard citability searches, because people often cite the use of software in weird ways (e.g. in the form of footnotes rather than as bibliography items; I must admit that I have been guilty of doing that myself until some colleagues taught me that the proper way to cite the use of computer software package is to reference the user manual as a bibliography item.) However, if that is indeed the case here, and if Bauer has developed some widely influential computer art/visualization software, this fact still needs to be clearly demonstrated in convincing some way by sufficiently many references to independent WP:RS. Then I would be happy to change my vote to 'keep'. Nsk92 (talk) 00:03, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • Some of Bauer's work involves computer visualization, computer art, and authentication schemes based on visual recall of random images. It is a rather technical field and a bit above my pay grade. But if you think if would help, I know how to to find the appropriate sources and could document that material. It will take a bit of work. Will I have any warning if the article was about to be deleted? I am quite sincere that I do not understand why his notability is in question. When I look at User profiles for "Andrej Bauer" I see Cited by 701. I am not sure exactly what that number means but it seemed impressive to me. It is true that Bauer has apparently not published anything in Annals of Mathematics. But that is not the appropriate venue for the field that he is in. He has published lots of stuff in Annals of Pure and Applied Logic and the Journal of Logic and Computation and other journals in his several fields of interest. Moreover, a lot of Bauer's work is in online forums like GitHub and I am not sure Wikipedia fully recognizes work published in such forums. BTW, I am amazed that nobody has written an article for Annals of Pure and Applied Logic. It is cited in over 70 Wikipedia articles. You mentioned the h-index of Thierry Coquand in GScholar. I could not find this number. Could you tell me how to link to this information and also to the corresponding info for Bauer.--Toploftical (talk) 03:37, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
            • 701 is the total number of citations in GScholar. When you click on the blue link with his name there, it takes you to his Scholar profile page where you can also see more detailed data, including his h-index (according to GScholar) of 13. Regarding 701 as a total number of citations, and h-index of 13 as the GScholar h-index: these are respectable numbers but no more than that. For pure math these are fairly average numbers for an active mathematician at Bauer's career stage, and for someone a part of whose work is in Computer Science, where publication and citation rates are higher, these numbers are kind of low. Compare these results with those of Thierry Coquand, where the top cited paper alone nets 1426 citations, more than twice 701 grand total of Bauer. About the journals. Annals of Mathematics is the premier mathematical journal for the entire Mathematics. Every mathematician, regardless of his/her area, be it logic, model theory, homotopy theory, differential equations, graph theory, number theory or whatever, dreams of publishing a paper there, and having done so is viewed as the signature achievement of one's career. So if a logician or a model theorist or a homotopy theorist has not published a paper in the Annals of Mathematics, it is certainly not because it is not "the appropriate venue" for their field. The two journals that you mentioned Annals of Pure and Applied Logic and "Journal of Logic and Computation" are OK journals, but they certainly don't have the same standing (either in math or in CS or as interdisciplinary journals) as Annals of Mathematics. For comparison, Journal Citation Reports gives Annals of Mathematics the impact factor of 3.116, while APAL gets 0.582 and JLC gets 0.585. Now, I am in pure math myself, but my colleagues tell me that in theoretical CS the most prestigious publications are actually not journals but conference proceedings of two premier conference series called FOCS and STOC. I did not see anything like that in Bauer's record either (although perhaps for computer visualization these venues do not really apply). To answer your last question about how I computed the h-index for Thierry Coquand in Scholar. I had to do this manually, using the definition of h-index and the results of GScholar search for his name [11]. I took the page with those results and counted down to find the latest n such the the n-th publication on the list has at least n citation. If I did not miscount, if was n=27. For some people, like Bauer, who have created their GScholar profile pages, the job is easier, because the h-index is already displayed there. But Coquand did not do that, and so his h-index had to be computed manually, from the results of the Scholar search. Nsk92 (talk) 13:17, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
              • It is correct that STOC and FOCS are the top conferences in theoretical computer science, but they're both much more Theory A than Theory B, and Bauer's work fits Theory B better. Looking through Bauer's CS pubs in DBLP I see one 2002 paper in ICALP (the top European theory conference, and much more friendly to Theory B), and other than that only more specialized conferences. For visualization the top conferences would be SIGGRAPH or InfoVis. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:10, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Reply to Nsk92: I did some checking of the metrics that you are applying. I agree that some of them, the h-level of 13 for Bauer, is low compared with many mathematician articles in WP (although I did find a couple lower than that). But before I throw in the towel, I want to make a couple of points. First, the field that Bauer is in only comprises twenty or thirty people at most. One has to know higher category theory, computer science, type theory, homotopy theory and other things to even participate. Homotopy type theory, in particular, is very new. It is unfamiliar to most mathematicians and they would have little reason to cite papers in that field. To some extent, these people mostly talk to each other–on GitHub and the n-Category Cafe– for instance. That does not mean that type theory, for example, is not important–far from it.
You emphasized that Bauer has no papers published in Annals of Mathematics or Inventiones Mathematicae. Quite honestly, these journals do not have the same prestige they had ten years ago. For one thing, there has been a rebellion among some mathematicians against publishing in such expensive and proprietary journals, John Baez and Timothy Gowers, for example, refuse to publish in Inventiones (owned by Springer Science+Business Media) on principal. They believe that a high-quality math journal can be inexpensively produced outside of the traditional, and extremely profitable, academic publishing industry. This partly explains why the book Homotopy Type Theory: Univalent Foundations of Mathematics (in which Bauer is a principal co-author) is absolutely free and why much of the work done in the field is online in the aforementioned GitHub and open access sites such as arXiv. In short, I am just not sure that the usual metrics for estimating notability apply in this case.--Toploftical (talk) 13:16, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As an active professional mathematician myself, I can tell you that the big three, the Annals of Mathematics, Inventiones Mathematicae and Journal of the American Mathematical Society, remain enormously prestigious and influential. Of course, I am aware of Tim Gowers' endeavors and the Forum of Mathematics Pi and Sigma journals. It remains to be seen what the future of those journals will be because a huge portion of the mathematical community considers it an absolute anathema to make the authors pay for publishing their papers. But that is beside my main point. I am not saying that the fact that Baueur did not publish a paper in Annals/Inventiones/JAMS implies that he is not notable. But I am saying that we need some positive tangible evidence supporting the claim that he is notable. It is not enough to say that he works in an important area where some other famous people have done some famous work. It is also not enough to make a vague claim that the usual standards may not apply in this case. You still need to produce convincing positive evidence that this particular academic is in fact notable. Incidentally, regarding the journals: there are other highly prestigious journals, just below Inventiones, that are published by non-commercial publishers and with which people like Gowers and Baez have no problems: Duke, Acta Mathematica, Journal of the European Mathematical Society, for example. Plus Annals of Mathematics itself is quite affordable, as is the Journal of the American Mathematical Society. So people in Math concerned about high journal prices and looking for an elite journal need only avoid submitting to Inventiones. Plus since 2013 the Forum of Mathematics option set up by Gowers is available too. But WP:PROF offers many other ways of showing academic notability: Through prizes/awards, journal editorships, named/highly prestigious lectures, being an elected member/fellow of an academic society, etc. Or evidence of introducing some concept/idea/notion/innovation/theorem that turned out to be important in a particular subject. Etc. Nsk92 (talk) 14:02, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
          • Just to clarify my comment of "low cited field". While I don't have exact stats, my personal experience shows that Computational mathematics is one of the lower cited fields in Computer Science. This is particularly true if you compare it to vision or security where it is much easier to publish papers leading to an inflated h-index. Which is why when I vote on AfDs, I adjust my threshold for h-index. For someone in computational mathematics, an h-index of 20 indicates a pretty good record (while for someone in security I will demand a higher h-index > 30). --Lemongirl942 (talk) 04:00, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Reply to Lemongirl942: You mention circumstances that would cause the h-index to be inflated. So is the h-index reliable or not? I hope the former is the case since so many people are depending on its accuracy. Are you arguing for or against Bauer's notability?--Toploftical (talk) 13:16, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • My own opinion is that the h-index can be ok as a way of comparing people who work on the same research topic but not when comparing people in different topics, even of the same general discipline, because of issues like the one raised by Lemongirl where different topics have different patterns of citation. One should also make sure to use the same citation index because different indexes give different numbers and some of them miss important publication venues (Web of Science is bad for CS for that reason). I would also add that my impression (without much evidence) is that it is much harder for computational topics such as the ones Bauer works on to get into Annals or Inventiones, as it is not the sort of mathematics that the people who run those journals prefer. So (like the h-index) not having a paper in those places is not evidence of any problem. But it is also not evidence of notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:31, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I'm not sure whether I have a vote here as the person who originally nominated the page for deletion, I'd imagine that I do not. I maintain that the notability criterion here is not satisfied by the material on his page. I am not familiar enough with mathematical computer science to know the overall importance of the field, but the page in question almost certainly does not provide information useful to people interested in either the social or mathematical advancement of the field.
  • To respond to the thinly-veiled allegations above that I have some personal grudge against Professor Bauer, I refer you to my user page wherein it details that I am a graduate student in philosophy. I have no connection to the subject of the page outside of wikipedia edits (of course, I think the numerous other votes toward Delete suggest the irrelevance of this point). In the past I have similarly made suggestions of pages to delete, but since I am a scatterbrain my wikipedia accounts are only accessible via automatic logging associated with my computer. My university recently generously provided me with a new computer, and this page was the first I found after this that didn't seem to pass the notability criterion.

  • Delete Although certainly an important topic all of its information is already given in other articles on the history and current situation of China and Taiwan. (I assert with confidence, but not having personally checked it out. If not it should be added there.) I don't think we would have an article on "Two United Stateses" to suppliment our articles on the American Civil War and the Confederate States of America, nor would we have "Two Vietnams" or "Two Germanies". Do we even have Two Koreas? Kitfoxxe (talk) 15:03, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    The difference is that the Chinese Civil War is still technically ongoing, without even an armistice like the Korean War, and entirely unlike those in Vietnam, Germany, and America. There's Division of Korea, though that's more about the way in which they were divided. If this is considered equivalent to Division of China, most of the background would be in Chinese Civil War. There's 1992 Consensus, One Country on Each Side and One-China policy - which might be seen as a counterpart to this, as represented by the fact that this article is linked in that article's lede. GreenReaper (talk) 10:21, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mostly merge to a comparative section within One-China policy, or perhaps other articles if deemed appropriate. Many of the topics raised here may be viewed as a "reality check" on the one-China policy as proposed by both parties, and separating it biases both that article and this one. "Two Chinas" as a phrase may have some importance, similar to "One Country on Each Side", but if so the article should be focused on that and backed up with references of its use in that context. GreenReaper (talk) 10:21, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge I'm certain that more political reasons influenced this rather than just contributors simply disagreeing with each other. As a important tpoic I'm very surprised there isn't a complete article explaining this in a clear manner. However, for merging, either keeping only One-China policy or only Two Chinas might be controversial, so I personally think should be a more neutral title. Or, keep, since this subject may qualify the reasoning "Articles whose subject is a POV". Blueeighthnote (talk) 04:47, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This term seems to be used widely. It is actually interchangeably with "Two China policy" or "One China one Taiwan". It is essentially an alternative to the one China policy and refers to the situation where China would govern the current territory held by PRC and Taiwan governs the territory held by ROC. It seems the term used to have a previous meaning earlier though. (See [12]). Regardless, I think it is worth keeping this article and adding more information. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 13:26, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and consider renaming to One China principle. As the article on One-China policy states in its lede section:
    Quote: The One China policy is also different from the "One China principle" (一个中国原则; 一個中國原則; yīgè Zhōngguó yuánzé), which is the principle that insists both Taiwan and mainland China are inalienable parts of a single "China".[3]
    The two "Chinas" are quite different to the two Indies, the two Washingtons, the two Galicias or the multiple Guineas and Guyanas. It sometimes happens that two titles that appear to be near opposites are in fact the same topic and covered in the same article. One of the joys of reading Wikipedia is coming across such an article and realizing the equivalence. The phrase "Two Chinas" is thus equivalent to the One China principle.
    The article now reads too much like a disambiguation page. It would be better to move or copy the beginning of the section Current situation to the lede section of the article:
    Quote: "The People's Republic of China (which administers mainland China) and Republic of China (which administers Taiwan) do not officially recognize each other's sovereignty. The official position of the governments of both the People's Republic of China and Republic of China remain that there is only one sovereign entity of China, and that each of them represents the legitimate government of all of China - including both mainland China and Taiwan - and the other is illegitimate."
    -- Petri Krohn (talk) 10:47, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Seems to me that they're opposites - Two Chinas says there are two Chinas, One China Principle says there is one. Either way, Keep as it's covered in ample sources. But oppose renaming since they're not the same at all. Smartyllama (talk) 21:10, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I agree here. One China principle is actually a proposed approach of the Mainland Chinese government according to which Taiwan will ultimately be reunited with the mainland and it will be governed as "one country two systems". This is not the same as "Two Chinas" which advocates an independent Taiwan (as a country separate from Mainland China). --Lemongirl942 (talk) 13:58, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Declined a speedy deletion request for this article because it makes a notability claim as a CEO and there are some reliable sources.

  • Delete. Malverne is nowhere near large enough a town to hand its mayors an automatic presumption of notability under WP:NPOL, so his includability would be entirely dependent on passing WP:NMUSIC for the "Britton's Orchestra" stuff. But that's all completely unsourced, and even if sources can be found I'm betting dollars to donuts that they would support the notability of the band rather than a separate standalone article about him as an individual. All we've got for sourcing here is one article in the local newspaper about his appointment to the village council and a user-generated genealogy site for his birth and death dates — and that's not enough to get him over WP:GNG in lieu of the fact that he doesn't pass any subject-specific inclusion criteria.

  • keep actually some sources including [26] which includes the quote "Misha is probably the most significant and most discussed personality of Czech and Slovak YouTube." [27], [28], [29] etc. Perhaps we should instead have an article about the kid, but we tend to get skittish about BLP articles for kids this young. Hobit (talk) 16:57, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"Probably" is a clue that that concept fails WP:V, apart from this isn't a news site of the most important celebrities of this week. From NOTNEWS "...enduring notability of persons and events. While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion", this is news right, completely without secondary sources and fails WP:10YT, I'm tagging recentism per that. Widefox; talk 21:33, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Erb? It's a song. A song that has coverage that seems to meet WP:N assuming those are reliable sources (and they seem to be, though they are ones I'm not familiar with). You are claiming this is "routine news reporting", but I don't see how something this unique (thank god) can be considered routine. Hobit (talk) 22:08, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Fails WP:NSONG 1. and 2. and 3., do you agree? also, see "Notability aside, a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album." - this is a WP:PERMASTUB with no artist to merge to, only location would be to the game. Widefox; talk 08:52, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, but probably hits "Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label." So meets WP:SONG. Yeah, I actually think the right answer is to have an article on the singer and to merge that there. But, as I said, we are so skittish about BLP articles for kids this young, I just don't see that as an option that's likely to work. Hobit (talk) 01:01, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Even if this wasn't WP:NOTNEWS (which it is), then NSONG is clear it should be merged (per above). Even alternatively as a BLP this is BLP1E. There's many youtube videos with more hits, and trends/hashtags on social media. They all fail 10YT. This is WP:RECENTISM par excellence! It doesn't even fit in List of most viewed YouTube videos or List of most disliked YouTube videos . Widefox; talk 08:34, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tomwsulcer, achieving a 'Stevie Award' is hardly notable, given that you have to pay to be an entrant in the awards, for which there is over 50 categories and the organisation itself even admits that approximately 40% of all entrants win. As pointed out by LibStar the Greater Dallas Asian American Chamber Of Commerce awards are also hardly notable.

  • Delete Simply being a consul is not an indication of notability. The coverage in reliable sources is about being appointed the honorary consul but nothing else. The little coverage about the awards seems to be redressed press releases. 2 of the sources 1 and 2 seem to be from the same website which doesn't seem like a reliable source.

Lack of significant coverage by reliable third party sources. Most sources are mere mentions that he played a game. The only source that really covers him is Redbull.com, which is questionable as a reliable source. Niteshift36 (talk) 22:45, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep he is the founder and captain of one of the most successful teams in Dota history, OG. The "mere mentions" that discuss this player are all within the context of OG's victories in major tournaments, which are covered by reliable sources.

  • Being part of the team (even the captain) doesn't make him inherently notable. The standard for GNG is significant coverage of him as a person. Those mere mentions of him being on a team support facts, but not notability. I've started a discussion at RSN about Redbull.com, but I couldn't find any discussion there before. If you have diffs to the discussion that showed this source is a RS, please share. Additionally, interviews are usually weak as a basis for GNG since it's really a primary source talking about himself. Niteshift36 (talk) 00:57, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • There are only five players on any Dota team, and being the captain means shouldering more than 1/5 of the responsibility. Also, the notability of this player is not based solely on that random interview, which is there only to back up his interest in Krav Maga. --Prisencolin (talk) 01:39, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • We don't use speculations about the "amount of responsibility" to establish notability. That random interview is the only source that does more than talk about the fact that he played. It's the closest think you have to significant coverage. Niteshift36 (talk) 02:00, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The bottom line is there is plenty more significant coverage for this person, and I'll add it right now.--Prisencolin (talk) 02:14, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not sure how that doesn't make sense to you. I'll try again for you: 1) What guideline tells us to speculate about "amount of responsibility" on the team as a measure of notability? 2) I didn't say his notability was based on a random interview. I said that interview was the most significant amount of coverage, but it's him, talking about himself. 3) Articles saying he played a game isn't significant coverage. 4) If there's so much coverage, why wouldn't you put at least a little significant coverage in the article first? If it exists, you have it and didn't bother to put it in, that's exactly the opposite of what you are supposed to do. Niteshift36 (talk) 03:26, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • He didn't just "play a game", I don't know where you're getting that from, he played in many high profile tournaments and won two Majors. It is also significant coverage, a team is composed of its constituent members, so whenever there's an article about the team, it's also about each of its players, and this is especially true when there are literally only 5 players on a team.--Prisencolin (talk) 05:58, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Play a game"= played video games in a tournament. Just like I'd say a baseball player in the World Series "played a game". Coverage of a TEAM doesn't project notability onto individual members. We see this all the time with music groups. The group is notable, but the individual members often aren't because of a lack of significant coverage. An example would be The Korgis. Notable group, but none of the members are notable. Same with Jump 'N the Saddle Band. Every FBS college football team is notable, every player is not. Is this making sense yet? Niteshift36 (talk) 15:16, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You have a point about band members not being notable, but in pro gaming, players transfer from team to team quite frequently, and get coverage through this. There are over 100 players on a college football roster, so that analogy is not apt.--Prisencolin (talk) 16:58, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Again, notability isn't inherited. You don't become notable by being on a notable team, regardless of the size. You become notable for significant coverage by reliable third party sources. You're too hung up on the number of players. How about Timbaland? He and Melvin (Magoo) Barcliff were a notable act. Timbaland has sufficient coverage to warrant his own article. Magoo is a redirect to the Timbaland article because he doesn't have significant coverage. And because you're hung up on numbers, you don't see the football analogy. Individuals don't become notable by being on a notable team. Niteshift36 (talk) 19:14, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I know full well what NOTINHERITED applies to. I question if you do. What you are doing is trying to make him notable based on the fact that he's on a notable team. Notability doesn't transfer. And your newer source isn't really coverage about him, it's coverage of game play by him. In other words, if you removed all of the sentences about him playing in that single event, what would you have left about Aziz?
If it's his gameplay, then it's about him. Looking up his old tag "Simbaaa" I've found this and Daily Dot. which has been upheld many times as a reliable source.--Prisencolin (talk)|
  • It's about the play of the team, including him. The Daily Dot piece is barely over a mention. Niteshift36 (talk) 21:33, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's right it's about the team, therefore significant coverage for him. The Daily Dof article lists him in the headline, which counts more than the two paragraphs about him on the article. And also Tal Aizik has played for several such teams, so out of the scope of WP:INHERITED section about group members.--Prisencolin (talk) 22:21, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Except it's not really about him, it's about what he did in a game. If you described him grocery shopping, would that be "notable". (Went down the aisle, selected cookies, put them in the basket, decided to return to dairy section). Niteshift36 (talk) 02:20, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sounds like you're starting to argue that there is no way someone can become notable just by playing video games. Regardless of the criticism pro gaming can get, the bottom line is that there are reliable sources covering this, and many other pro gamers have been kept after being nominated for AFD Rekkles, for instance. Also, yes, is someone gets significant coverage in reliable, secondary sources for years of grocery shopping, they would meet WP:GNG.-Prisencolin (talk) 18:35, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • You don't become notable by playing games. You become notable through significant coverage by reliable third party sources. Of course there are notable gamers, this just hasn't been shown to be one of them. This has nothing to do with gaming or not, it's about significant coverage by reliable third party sources. The bottom line here is not what you summed it up as. It is that THIS person lacks significant coverage. Despite your assertion, you can't add mentions together to build notability. This isn't Lego. Niteshift36 (talk) 16:13, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It looks like the nominator and the article creator are edit-warring. Maybe work around that, regardless of the way this nomination goes. DARTHBOTTO talk•cont 01:00, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm done reverting edits for now. I think we're in accordance with the article in its current state, aside from its notability of course.--Prisencolin (talk) 06:33, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Simply doing a IDONTLIKEIT rationale and ignoring what other people are pointing out to you are just strange. I can if that would make you feel better add the exact same statement like Prisencolin does below but it would be a waste of time and energy. It all comes down to a interpretation of the sources, clearly I and Prisencolin sees it one way and you another. Based on the fact that you want this article merged/deleted. We could argue all day about the specific sources but we both know that we would not agree. --BabbaQ (talk) 13:29, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • So let's gets this straight BabbaQ.... You claim there are "plenty of good sources" and I ask the simple question of which one you feel is the strongest, then you refuse to answer the question. This isn't about IDONTLIKEIT. I've actually cited policy. You've said there are "plenty" of good sources, but refuse to share them. So your rationale amounts to "because I said so". That's not to persuasive. Niteshift36 (talk) 17:26, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • That doesn't answer the question that I asked BabbaQ. I didn't ask if there were sources, I asked which was the most substantial coverage. GNG doesn't require sources, it requires significant coverage by the reliable sources. Telling me "ESPN" when the ESPN article is about the event and doesn't even name the subject (Fly) by name, calling it significant coverage of him is pretty much wishful thinking. Now maybe the editor I asked will answer the question that I asked. Niteshift36 (talk) 22:23, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I was talking about the other ESPN article, about the roster changes.--Prisencolin (talk) 03:45, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • The one that literally mentions him in a single sentence along with another guy? Are you seriously going to assert that is significant coverage? Niteshift36 (talk) 21:18, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • That single article aline doesn't amount to significant coverage obviously, but the totality of sources present do.--Prisencolin (talk) 05:30, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, that's not how it works. 20 mere mentions don't add up to significant coverage, but a single instance of significant coverage can establish notability. Based on your notion, an actor who played roles like "Man on bus" and "bar patron #3" would become notable if he was listed enough times. Niteshift36 (talk) 16:06, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Again, the articles about this players achievements as part of a team aren't mere mentions, since whatever the team, each individual player did also, and in this case there are only five players on a team and this player as been with multiple notable such teams, so a redirect or merger may not be WP:NPOV.--Prisencolin (talk) 18:28, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • And again, you're completely off base. Just as individual members of a band aren't notable just because the band is notable, being on a notable team doesn't confer individual notability. Clearly this concept is fuzzy to you. Niteshift36 (talk) 00:54, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's the key difference between the music industry and gaming, the majority of band member are only part of one band dueing their entire career. On the other hand, pro gamers tend to be part of several notable teams.--16:46, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Actually, not true. Many go from one band to another, especially the non-notable ones. Still, it's the notable TEAM that they become a part of. Notability doesn't transfer to them solely because they become part of it. Niteshift36 (talk) 17:30, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • The key point here is most pop musicians are only part of a single notable band; this player has been a part of several notable teams, ie ones that have standalone article on Wikipedia. The standard procedure to redirect a person into the organization they are most associated with is inappropriate for this case because there are several possibilities. Such a redirect would be WP:XY, WP:POV and WP:RECENTISM.--Prisencolin (talk) 18:58, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Except that your key point isn't really correct (many musicians end up playing studio tracks for numerous artists. They toil quietly in the background, never becoming notable) and it still hinges on the flawed notion that the notability of the team confers notability on individuals. And you do realize we want things to be NPOV, so why are you acting like NPOV is wrong? Niteshift36 (talk) 22:53, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I actually meant that it would be POV, and is bad, I've corrected this in the above post. Musicians who have associates acts that are only a one time collaboration are probably not notable just for that one collaboration. I also don't think you can compare playing studio tracks with other artists with a sports or gaming team, because the former are less formal. Honestly I don't know too much about the recording industry, but this seems to be the case.--Prisencolin (talk) 17:49, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why do you keep twisting what I say? Who is talking about one time collaborations? I'm not. Many artists use the same musicians on a regular basis. There are tons of musicians that are part of groups that are far more notable than any of these teams, but group notability isn't transferrable to individuals. Niteshift36 (talk) 03:26, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Okay, I'm not claiming to know that much about music, so I probably didn't get the analogy right. Anyways, a person doesn't get notability from a group they are part of, but if they are part of several notable groups, they are. There are sources discussing this player's transfers between teams.--Prisencolin (talk) 17:49, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Can you point to a policy that actually supports that notion? WP:NBIO says "That person A has a relationship with well-known person B, such as being a spouse or child, is not a reason for a standalone article on A (unless significant coverage can be found on A); relationships do not confer notability." This guideline then links to the essay WP:NOTINHERITED. Now, before you start talking about family, realize this addressed relationships too. It says "Inherited notability is the idea that something qualifies for an article merely because it was associated with some other, legitimately notable subjects." That's exactly what you're arguing here. You're claiming that because the team is notable, the individual is notable. Niteshift36 (talk) 19:06, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to OG (eSports). Everything noteworthy about this topic appears to be in context of OG's wins and not Fly's contribution. Besides for the fact that OG's own sourcing is currently weak and could be bolstered by the sources/prose in this article, Fly's article is more about OG than him. There is one interview, but I'd consider it of little consequence. Merge to the team is the best solution, and it can always spin out summary style if the information on Fly becomes too much for the OG article to handle. The discussions above about significant coverage are really disappointing—either show the passages where the individual is discussed in depth or get on board the merge train czar 15:56, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect as still nothing actually containing the substance as his own independent notability; also, there has in fact been consensus these are not automatically notable regardless of whatever or whoever. SwisterTwister talk 00:51, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Plenty of good sources. So why would a AfD be instigated if it is automatically non notable? That makes no sense. IDONTLIKEIT is irrelevant. BabbaQ (talk) 13:24, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep extensive coverage in Chinese sources: [32], [33], [34], [35], etc. for a clear pass of WP:GNG. SSTflyer 03:04, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'm not sure what to make of the sources SSTflyer found. I don't read chinese, so I had to rely on the automatic translations. From that, these all seem to refer to hot and sour powder, which might be an ingredient in hot and sour noodle, but that's not quite the same thing.
Some sources I found:
  1. Hot and Sour Sweet Potato Noodles-Suan La Fen. It's in a website which describes itself as a blog, and normally we don't like blogs as sources, but I'm inclined to think this one isn't bad as blogs go.
  2. CHONGQING HOT AND SOUR CELLOPHANE NOODLES. Not exactly the same name, but sure looks like the same dish.
  3. Easy Hot and Sour Sweet Potato Noodles, Chinese Sichuan (Szechuan) Style. Another variation on the title.
There also appears to be a copyvio problem with our lede text copied straight from here (I'll fix that right after I'm done here). The text of our article is badly written; it needs major editing (maybe WP:TNT) to get it into shape, but that's not a reason for deletion.
Merging into Hot and sour soup would be a mistake; while they share some flavors, they are distinctly different dishes. Hot and sour soup is more of a broth (usually thickened). this site (cited from the Google cache, because the site itself seems to be down) also refers to the dish. This dish looks like it's mostly noodles. So, yeah, we need better sourcing, and a lot of editing, but I think there's a reasonable chance this could develop into a useful article, so I'm inclined to keep it. Also suggest moving this to Hot and Sour Noodles (plural) since that seems to be a more common name for the dish. But leave the current title as a redirect, because I sometimes see it written in the singular as well. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:48, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • @RoySmith: "hot and sour powder" is an incorrect translation of 酸辣粉. 粉 can mean "powder" or "noodle" depending on context. In my sources, all instances of 酸辣粉 mean "hot and sour noodle", the article subject. SSTflyer 06:43, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect instead because simply satisfying WP:GNG, as the 1st Keep vote states, would still not be enough and it sounds like a "eh, it's enough" vote, rather than stating clearly and thoroughly how and why this can be kept separately. It seems they are still in fact connected, regardless if they are not the same food course. There's never a clear line whether these articles themselves can in fact be substantially kept and improved. SwisterTwister talk 00:53, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Article about a local event which makes no strong case that it's notable enough to need an encyclopedia article. The content consists of two sentences which offer little of substance beyond "this is a thing that exists", the sourcing that's substantively about it is entirely to local media rather than national coverage that would satisfy WP:AUD, the little bit of sourcing that is nationalized isn't substantive but merely namechecks its existence in the process of being about some other comparable event rather than about this one per se, and all of the sources are merely refbombing its existence rather than being used to support any actual substance about it. Further, the article was created by User:Drdaliah, an evident conflict of interest since one of the people named in the article as a creator of the event is "Dr. Daliah Wachs". As always, something like this is not automatically entitled to an article just because it exists; it has to demonstrate and properly source a credible pass of WP:ORG and or WP:EVENT. In truth I'd ordinarily have speedied this, but this is a followup recreation after an earlier version was speedied for not making an actual claim of notability.

Hotel failing [WP:GNG]. No coverage found except routine listings in travel guides/travel related websites.

  • Delete Almost no reliable sources about it. Interestingly enough, the Spanish language article on it has been deleted twice. Joseph2302 17:50, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge or redirect to List of hotels in Spain#Tenerife. The list-article serves good purpose of holding mention of significant hotels so that they each do not need an article. Items in the list-article can/should contain some information besides just the name of the hotel (e.g. 356 rooms for this one) but should be supported by references. There are too many AFDs about tall buildings and hotel buildings, which create unnecessary conflict between those who support having zero coverage (with deletion of all past discussion about sources etc. at its Talk page and all of the article's edit history, thereby losing even links to AFDs) vs. having too much coverage (in an under-reviewed article that tends to become promotional). The appropriate answer is inbetween: cover the building in the corresponding list-article, using proper references. The redirect's edit history and Talk page provide record of sources and debates. AFDs are not needed unless there is a dispute about merging; try merging the material first, before opening an AFD. --doncram 00:10, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I also note that his year of birth is reported in the article variously as 19192 and 1924, the first being impossible and the second very improbable. I think that WP:A7 applies here, as nothing in the article gives the remotest indication of anything that is likely to mean that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 16:26, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:A7 doesn't apply to articles where a credible claim of significance is given. Lourdes 17:04, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I know, and I don't see any credible (or incredible) claim of significance here. Having been listed as one of the hundred most influential students in Kenya is not a claim of significance when it doesn't say that he has been listed by anyone whose opinion counts for anything. He might as well have been listed as such by his mum. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 17:18, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I found it difficult to believe that film (even a short film) receiving multiple awards (even if not seen as "major" as an Oscar) had received absolutely no coverage. In a quick look, I easily found an in-depth independent review by James McDonald at Irish Film Critic. I have convinced myself it is worth looking further before declaring them non-existent. At the very least, the author should be sent to WP:NAU to better understand the difficulties of WP:COI when editing. Schmidt, Michael Q. 20:29, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NFILM specifies a "major award". Any organization can make trophies and give them out. shoy (reactions) 12:45, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, that's an "attribute to consider" which suggests that "sources may exist" and is not itself a mandate when it clarifies "Standards have not yet been established to define a major award, but it's not to be doubted that an Academy Award, or Palme D'or, Camera D'or, or Grand Prix from Cannes would certainly be included. Many major festivals such as Venice or Berlin should be expected to fit our standard as well"... essentially telling us that awards (even non-major) hint that coverage may exist. This is why I suggested Looking deeper. Simple. Schmidt, Michael Q. 05:39, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as even the comment above stating the links are still quite thin and are not coming close to the actual needed substance, let alone information, because all what's the listed here are some film show appearances. SwisterTwister talk 00:54, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as a non-notable short film. The sources are weak, to say the least. Other than showing at mid-level film festivals, I don't see any evidence this has ever been shown in a regular movie theater, much less an "indie house". Unless a short film is shown at the Cannes Court Métrage or some similar high-profile shorts-fest or a World SF Con, it's unlikely to get much media attention. Furthermore, none of the actors are notable yet. Bearian (talk) 18:37, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The single event already has its own article and the category is enough to locate it. But I suspect some larger cleanup is needed than just deleting an article here or there. Zerotalk
  • Question. There are a few hundred other Year in Ireland articles and I don't think you can really consider any one independent of the whole series. Is taking individual years to AfD the proper venue for this discussion? Would it not be better to start a wider AfC on the fate of years-where-not-very-much happened in Ireland? (Genuine question; apologies if I'm unaware of a relevant previous consensus on year in... articles). Joe Roe (talk) 10:21, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge -- This and 5 or six others for the decade into 1250s in Ireland. The 1257 article has some substantive content, which may need to be moved to something more specific. As Zero said, a much wider ranging clean up is needed. There will be dozens of similar stubs for Ireland and hundreds worldwide to which the same objection applies.

  • Keep - this is a stub, part of a series of articles covering "years in Ireland" from 1100 onward. The stubs are created to be expanded; part of a systematic build-up. If you delete or merge this then there are at least 400 more articles in the series which would merit a similar approach. Sarah777 (talk) 18:44, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I wouldn't support deleting this. However, given the number of redlinks in individual years in this series, and the length of time the improvement tags have languished on this article, it may be worth consolidating these early year articles into decades. The year articles could still redirect there. --John (talk) 22:19, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Having redlinks is no disadvantage. Articles like this allow expansion. And there is no deadline. --John (talk) 22:34, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This current page is preferable to a 1250s page which, to me, would be messy with many sections and subsections. On a quick Google search, 1250 appears as a delimiting year for a number of book titles and historical websites (e.g. this). That is, the year is considered by some historians to mark the end of the initial Norman conquest period (from 1170) and the start of the Gaelic revival. The tagged subsections could be deleted, but keep the page. I'm sure Irish history specialists could add to this page. Declangi (talk) 03:49, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A vanity article about a non-notable filmmaker. It was created by the subject and deleted as a result of AfD, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marianna Yarovskaya. It was then recreated by a single-purpose account Iamothers.

No indication of notability. All referenes are either press releases (sometimes republished) or trivial passing mentions that do not cover Cobb in any detail. I removed some of the blatantly promotional content, but the rest would still need to be rewritten even if Cobb were notable. Huon (talk) 18:36, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

After conducting research I have found several media outlets that have significant coverage of Cobb speaking on behalf of the State Agency the employs him. He has been found to speak in place of the actual commissioner of that agency. I feel this displays a notable community presence as a community servant. Along with being awarded out of all state law enforcement. It is my opinion that his public standing to include being a racing figure is worthy of notability.

  • Comment At least one of the sources, Fader, is credible enough. The other one is tough to gauge. But this article is going to need more than one solid source to back up a claim of significant coverage to convey notability. This might be saved with more legwork by someone who wants to suss out potential references under her real name. Although early in her career, she appears to have played significant roles on notable recordings that have charted, but without substantive references cited in the article it doesn't belong on wikipedia.

  • Delete yet another beauty pageant with no indication of notability per WP:EVENT. The first one apparently hasn't been held yet, and I can find no coverage online from WP:RS, just blogs and social media, with zero hits on GNews. Little Will (talk) 10:27, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - the cited references that aren't dead links mostly make no mention of this pageant. I've tried tagging the failed verifications, but the article creator keeps reverting. Tellingly, nearly all the references have access dates from years before article creation. Article creator couldn't even be bothered to click on the links before pasting, hence the numerous dead links. The list of previous winners and the gallery are both straight pastes from articles on other pageants. I'm not going to edit war on this, but the article is just a hot mess of lazy copy-pasting.

    • There are two kinds of coverage: coverage which focuses on the subject and coverage which doesn't. The latter can also be split into two subgroups. For there could be an article which talks about five people and gives each a fair share of coverage. But then there is the namedrop variety which just namedrops the subject amongst many others. This is the worst category to be in. Wikipedia rules say that the coverage should cover the subject in detail. It should be said that one shouldn't be absolute here, as in some rare cases hundreds of namedrops in big publications might be worth something after all. But in our case, there exist a small number of articles -- 5-6 years old from mostly the same websites covering the hobby in question -- that pretty much just list match results. Every single article seems to just have an extremely strenuous, random namedrop of our subject. Mr. Magoo (talk) 17:39, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Split; keep here just jet-engine meaning. Multiple meanings should be disambiguated each to their own page (or redirect to parent articles, etc.). The jet-engine meaning was the only topic of the article when it was created, up until User:81.111.216.41 added Pasteur's flask on 12 October 2009‎, and this meaning is now cited (thanks User:Mark viking!). The other meaning belongs somewhere else, probably Swan neck flask. That term is widely used for this experiment--I rewrote the content and added a ref. It could instead redirect to Louis Pasteur#Spontaneous generation, or else some content from there could be transferred to that new article on the apparatus. DMacks (talk) 03:48, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    See my comment below. On that note, Mark Viking's cite was to "Swan-neck flask" not "Swan neck duct" as you suggest. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 09:54, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Mark Viking's edit? DMacks (talk) 12:41, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Presumably not the edit you mentioned above which was said to have endorsed Pasteur's "duct". To be honest, I'm not sure who added that false citation, maybe Mark deserves more credit than that. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 15:56, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    In this article, I have added two references for the jet engine/gas turbine usage and have not touched the Pasteur section. --Mark viking (talk) 07:33, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Split per DMacks. While parts of the article are independently verifiable, the main sin here is synthesis per WP:SYNTH of two different subjects that are not discussed together in the literature. I was able to easily find a couple of reliable sources for the turbine interface and a GScholar search for "swan neck" turbine shows more RS to be had. This is a necessary component of jet engines and other high performance gas turbines and looks notable per WP:GNG. I agree with DMacks that the swan neck duct in chemistry or biology is most closely associated with the famous Pasteur experiment and is best merged and redirected into the Louis Pasteur#Spontaneous generation section. With those actions the article can become a well-formed stub that has WP:POTENTIAL for improvement. --Mark viking (talk) 11:17, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • Delete. This article is presumably a reaction to the hijacking of the main swan neck by beer drinkers. From the aeronautical perspective, the term is a trivial description of any suitably-shaped duct and has no special relevance to turbines. Try the equivalent search for example on "swan neck" plumbing or "swan neck" coolant. In science, the swan neck is more normally met in the swan neck flask or a tube than a "duct". No, this article is not the way. Better to tackle the beer drinkers over the applicability of the "swan neck" as an ordinary phrase much used in the wider world. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 20:09, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Ping @LoopZilla and SilkTork:, who created Swan neck as an article and made it a redirect to Beer engine, respectively. Should "swan neck" become a disambiguation page since we have at least two (and maybe three) kinds of "swan neck..." things and one (and maybe more) are redirects (means it's hard to hatnote disambig/cross-link them). DMacks (talk) 22:26, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for the ping. We have Swan neck deformity (which looks like it could be considered for merging with Boutonniere deformity), Edith the Fair, Swan-neck bottle, Mega Trailer, Pediment, Spur, and other articles which are about topics which are often described with the term "swan neck" (swan neck spur, swan neck pediment, etc), so it would be appropriate to turn Swan neck into a disamb page, and I will do that shortly. I have no opinion on Swan neck duct, it is not a topic I am familiar with, but the current article is written as a Wikipedia:Broad-concept article, so it is worth discussing to see if that is appropriate, or if it should be turned into a regular disamb page.

    • Keep and Split - Keep this article as the jet-engine duct. Split out the info on the flask into Swan neck flask. I think that is better than redirecting to Louis Pasteur#Spontaneous generation as there is also Spontaneous generation and both of these article could link to Swan neck flask. It seems that "swan neck duct" has been used prior to jet engines (here is a source from 1868 [[54]] but I think any usage related to air ducts (jet engine or otherwise) belongs here.

      • Agreed, but I ask to delete the present content of "See also" from either. The explanation of eponymous resemblance to a swan's neck should be worked into the text of both articles, including the link to Swan. The "Hydro massage" link has nothing to do with either subject, and no reference to "swan" is found in the hydro massage article; if there really is a notable "swan-neck" type of water jet, then it should be stated in that article and listed instead on Swan neck (disambiguation).

    • Merge somewhere/Delete - Doesn't seem independently notable and seems to only exist for the purpose of including a program list, like Nickelodeon (Africa) and Nickelodeon (Israel). I strongly doubt anyone is going to flesh this out in any meaningful way that would describe the foundation of the Finnish channel, or provide any academically useful information. Typically they tend to just repeat content found at the main Nickelodeon article or included fluffed-up sections like Nickelodeon India and Nickelodeon Arabia do, the latter of which being awash in citation needed templates. Even if anything could be said of these channels, there is (from my experience) little in the way of references to help. We have far too many of these articles as-is, most are grossly undersourced, and most of them could probably be condensed and merged under Nickelodeon (international) (minus the programming lists).

    • Delete. There's a little bit of coverage, such as [58] from the Times of Malta (mentioned above) and [59] from The Malta Independent. However, I don't think this is really enough to establish notability. The rest of the hits I saw in a Google search were trivial mentions. List of newspapers in Malta may help in finding reliable sources. I only searched the English-language sources, so I suppose it's possible that Maltese-language sources may exist. It might be worthwhile to consider moving it to draft space to see if someone can locate them. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 05:35, 11 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Delete. Much like NinjaRobotPirate above I found a few mentions of the TV show that don't go far enough to establish notability per the guidelines of WP:NTV. I note NTV specifies that national tv shows are likely to be notable, but, the prevalence of sources is the dominant factor is deciding whether a show is indeed notable. [A] national television program may not be notable if it was cancelled too quickly to have garnered any significant media coverage, it did indeed have enough time to get "significant" coverage, and failed to do so, Malta Independent and the Times of Malta are the only two reliable sources I came across myself. There's a bunch of unreliable ones like twitter and facebook and blogspots, but, that's about it. Add; I think it's quite telling that the first AfD didn't gather a single vote to keep or delete after three weeks and indicates to me that this is a non-controversial deletion request.

    Delete. Inadequately sourced WP:BLP of a radio producer. While there are claims here that probably would be enough to earn her an article if she could be sourced over WP:GNG for them, nothing here gives her an automatic pass of any subject-specific inclusion criterion -- and while it looks well sourced on the surface, every last one of the 15 citations here either (a) namechecks her existence in the process of failing to be about her, or (b) sources a tangential fact about the show she produces while entirely failing to even namecheck her existence at all. Which means none of the sources here get her over WP:GNG, because not even one of them is substantively about her. Bearcat (talk) 22:49, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • Keep. So, I created the entry because I believe the subject is wiki-notable, but to summarize my reasons for that view:
    1. A Peabody is the highest award in the field (often compared as audio equivalent to a Pulitzer for print journalism), qualifying for WP:ANYBIO.
    2. WP:CREATIVE #3, "played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work" that has been "the primary subject...of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." There's no shortage of reviews and articles about the Harper High episode (a two-hour radio doc); she's named as a co-creator for the credits and on the many awards it's won; and in addition to the awards, a piece that draws action by the President and First Lady of the United States seems pretty squarely "significant" to me.
    3. But all the same, here are additional available sources that haven't been incorporated into the entry yet. I consider the sum more than adequate for WP:BASIC.
    More awards she's won:
    More secondary source coverage describing other aspects of her life:
    More secondary source notice for her radio work:
    So the entry seems wiki-notable to me by several standards, though of course only one need be satisfied; and I don't see any exclusion criteria that would apply, so, keep. Innisfree987 (talk) 01:52, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    A Peabody would support her notability if she had won it as an individual; it does not support her notability if you have to combine sources which say the show won a Peabody, but which fail to specifically single out her name in conjunction with that achievement, with the show's own self-published primary source content about itself to prove that she was involved in creating the content that won the award. None of those other awards are ones that confer an automatic WP:JOURNALIST pass on a person who isn't the subject of enough reliable source coverage to satisfy GNG. Those articles covering "other aspects of her life" aren't covering notable aspects of her life: getting covered in the real estate section for buying a condo doesn't make a person encyclopedically notable, owning an independent wine store doesn't make a person encyclopedically notable, and the "Laker Girl" article just namechecks her existence a single time in an article that isn't about her. And exactly zero of those "secondary source notice for her radio work" are in reliable sources; every last one of them is either a blog or a press release on the website of an organization, not a media outlet that can support notability. What you're missing is that there's a big difference between sources which verify that she exists, and sources which can validly confer notability — and you have yet to show even one source which does the latter. Bearcat (talk) 03:59, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    I have some disagreements with the analysis here, but for perhaps the simplest way to advance the discussion, here's the Peabody's announcement specifically naming her (as co-producer, which I've updated in the entry). I may come back later and expand on other questions, but for now I'd rather work on improving the entry; and perhaps others will weigh in in the meantime, which I think would be useful. Innisfree987 (talk) 16:42, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    That's still a primary source. What makes an award notable enough to confer a notability pass on a winner of that award is the existence of media coverage about the award win, not just the award's own self-published website about itself. Bearcat (talk) 21:45, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • Keep (somewhat weak keep) Important journalist and producer although (admittedly) there is not much in-depth reporting on her, although she's clearly done great work. She is getting attention because of the wine store -- a second source of references so that puts her in the keep column for me, with sources like this one and this one.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 23:04, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • Delete I searched like crazy and there are exactly Zero reliable secondary sources which present some significant coverage about the subject. Half of references in the article have absolutely no reference to the subject. I'm not convinced that the Peabody award grants automatic notability considering the number of people who are credited. Tangential coverage coatracked to articles about something else do not add up to notability. The coverage about the wine store is essentially about an independent wine store with a mention of the owners - nothing indicates that the store is notable. Overall I don't see any references talking about the subject and their work. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 05:42, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    For context on the Peabody: I searched the AfD archives to see how the award was usually treated in bios before I ivoted, and I could only find four AfDs with anyone promoting the idea the Peabody did not confer notability. In two the subject had not been named as a winner, but rather the network the person worked for had won: Margie Nichols and Nicholas Claxton. The other two were subjects who had not won a Peabody but only been nominated: JC Lamkin and Seema Jilani. By contrast, here is a Peabody-related bio AfD where the nominator said, "If we can verify his share in a Peabody, I'll gladly withdraw" and indeed the bio was kept (in fact there were no delete voters at all): Jeffrey Bushell. So it seems to me it would be a novel interpretation of the Peabody's significance not to count being explicitly named as a winner for WP:BIO, and I am quite reluctant to break fresh ground by counting achievements by women for less than we have previously counted the same achievement by men. Innisfree987 (talk) 17:15, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    If we focus on this bio, it has 2 problems.
    1. A lack of significant coverage failing GNG. And
    2. A lack of secondary sources about the subject's association with the peabody award.
    Jeffrey Bushell was 6 years ago, it had 1 weak keep and 1 keep and overall lacked participation. Also consensus can change. (See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Railpage Australia (9th nomination) for an example). The essential reason for coverage is WP:WHYN that we should be able to write a good article on the subject and this significant coverage is missing here. Also, no one is suggesting that we are counting achievements by women for less than we have previously counted the same achievement by men. If WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS, we nominate it for deletion per WP:SEWAGE. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 03:06, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Delete as it's still too closely focused with naming other people or other entities, and that's not what's needed for guaranteeing an acceptable article; this would then be best mentioned elsewhere instead given she's best known for that.

    Delete. Article about a musical group with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, and no strong reliable source coverage to support it. The referencing here is entirely to unreliable sources like Blogspot blogs and sales pages on online retail platforms, with the only remotely acceptable piece of reliable source coverage being a single article in the band's own hometown newspaper.

    • If there's more proper third-party reviews (not "Brooklyn Vegan" blog) of the international tours that would pass NMUSIC #4 handily. The Quietus piece is one. I'm seeing what looks like nontrivial tour coverage in Latvian and Estonian media, though I don't know the languages to verify. (They got a photo in Vice's Portugal edition, though not text.) They tour a lot, around the world. ping Mihoji, any more from the clippings file?

    Blatantly promotional - no independent sources, tons of redlinks. There are no independent refs; the article exists simply to promote the movie by showing up in Google reports via Wikipedia. Jytdog (talk) 18:29, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • Delete - Although the film itself may be worth an article (I do see a couple reliable sources, though only a few, and nothing all that in-depth), this is not it. This reaches the WP:TNT point. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:13, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Clear keep based on the recent updates by User:MRFazry -- seems like their are plenty of sources, and I am not seeing anything particularly promotional about the current version of the article. Also, redlinks are not a justification for deletion (they are actually really good reasons to include the article). Sadads (talk) 03:39, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    The sources are thinly veiled press releases, two by the same person and are mostly duplicates. One of the links in the refs goes no where already. Fwiw, none are in English. This is 100% promotional. Jytdog (talk) 04:59, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • Keep - The new sources help muchly. Republika is clearly an RS, and as far as Indonesian online news portals go, Liputan6 is one of the better ones. It's not uncommon for the same reporter for the same source to report on the same film at different times; Tiga Dara, a GA, cites two stories from the same reporter for Rolling Stone Indonesia. I'm not particularly familiar with SINDONews, but it is owned by a major media corporation (MNC), so it may very well be reliable. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 05:41, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    WP should not be a dictionary or glossary, although of course other stuff exists. Although I am confident that many IWW members did use these expressions there is no evidence given that they are specific to this one group and in most cases did not originate with them. "No original research" seems to apply. Borock (talk) 15:18, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
