Poorly referenced article about an organization which does not appear to be notable. About 3 dozen hits on google news, but of the listing or trivial mention variety. Did not see a single reference with significant coverage. Fewer results on Books, but of the same variety. Was deprodded without a valid rationale.

  • Strong keep Yes the article is poor on all accounts, however this is not grounds for deletion. Google shows very limited hits but then google is very blind to anything older than about 10 years ago. See for example trove. I have not had a chance to sift through this material, but even on a first very quick glance I suggest this article romps it in on NEXISTs. There would appear to be potential here for a very extensive and in-depth article with references going back ~80 years or more. Aoziwe (talk) 12:30, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment a better trove search is with exclamation marks "Commonwealth+Bank+Officers+Association" which shows far less results. A lot of it is routine like court listings. I will decide later how I vote on this. LibStar (talk) 07:47, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
yes and no, not now notable, but could be kept, could be a paragraph on the FSU page Dave Rave (talk) 04:34, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

PR-toned article with only what he himself would advertise about his career and it's unsuitable for our policies because any advertising can and will be removed; the sources are only mere business announcements and mentions. The driveby removal IP has potential signs of it being SPA given the immediate attention to an otherwise quiet PR article.

I couldn't establish that this meets WP:NOTABILITY.

  • Keep - this is niche open source Engineering software which isn't going to get a lot of media coverage. A quick search does find a couple of guide books written about using the software, and some technical papers discussing the results of using the software: [[1]][[2]][[3]][[4]][[5]][[6]][[7]] There are also numerous search results for classes for the software, suggesting a viable user base.

  • Delete I'm not convinced that the technical papers and guidebooks get it over GNG. I agree with Timtempleton:this is niche open source Engineering software which isn't going to get a lot of media coverage. In my mind, that means it isn't going to meet GNG.

This content worries me a bit. It was created in 2016, as a content translation, and then deleted under speedy deletion criterion G11 (in August 2016). In September 2016, it returned, again as a content translation.

Of the 33 pages that use the term "stellar explosion" almost every single one of them defines which term (nova/supernova/etc) is being referenced within the same sentence. Basically, this is unnecessary disambiguation. Primefac (talk) 19:33, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How annoying. On my exploration, I discovered there's a category of stellar explosion Luminous red nova caused by stellar collision. Thats interesting! Part of the magic of wikipedia is it's ability to guide you to interesting things, even if you aren't looking for them. Are we short of hard drive space or something?? Fmadd (talk) 20:06, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: For Wikipedia to succeed, we need a certain amount of organization and consolidation. The stellar explosion article does not need to stand on its own when other articles suffice. Isambard Kingdom (talk) 20:25, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

'organisation' , yes, these kind of pages "organize" the material by helping the reader discover. Isn't it great that wikipedia can guide you to information you weren't aware of? If you think this is "overlinking", why not push for a way of prioritizing links, instead of it having to be a binary choice (LINK or NO LINK). All this time you spend fighting me could go into improving the platform. The links could be visually weighted (the shade of blue). Fmadd (talk) 21:05, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Read about this, Word_embedding, now imagine extending this algorithm to include wikilinks in the vocabulary. Wikipedia should be an amazing resource for AI training. The more links it has the better. Please please please instead of getting all uptight about what should be linked, can we extend the wikipedia platform to prioritize links, so it's not a binary choice, if people think there are 'too many'. Every link we add makes the data set 'smarter'. Fmadd (talk) 21:18, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

i'd be perfectly happy with a list. Anything that lets you explore.(One thing I run into is ambiguity.. should it be a list or a category. is it an overkill to have a category for a few entires) Fmadd (talk) 22:46, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There is also Tidal disruption event which may look like an explosion from a distance, but is something different! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 23:00, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Methods of a 'stellar explosion' covers a very wide plethora of complicated mechanisms that are not simple to explain. It simply says that a supernova is a type of stellar explosion, and is among a group of objects in several sub-categories. Anyone who doesn't like it, please properly use the Talkpages. Thanks. Arianewiki1 (talk) 01:07, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
thanks.. "very wide plethora" ... that's what I suspected. If stellar explosion and supernova were synonymous, why would both terms exist. They must carry different connotations. A curious mind seeing 'a supernova is a stellar explosion' will want to know if there are others. Fmadd (talk)
  • rename&redirect (whats the etiquette here?) - rename this as 'list of stellar explosion events', [stellar explosion] can just redirect to that. the exploration is interesting. the appeal of wikipedia is to guide you to interesting info you didn't know to look for. Fmadd (talk) 20:00, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Make into a list article. Disambiguation pages are not meant to define shades of meaning between related terms. — Gorthian (talk) 21:38, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Make into a list, Delete or Make a real article (in order of probability). If you think you can come up with enough actual (sourced) content to write an article, the last would be preferable. But what's there now is just a list and should be organized and described as such. The other thing, which I mentioned on the editor's talk page, is to beware of overlinking. Adding extra links devalues other links in the article simply by clutter, so it's certainly questionable whether wikilinking every mention of "stellar explosion" that can be found, is worth it. Tarl N. (discuss) 00:09, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have discovered things I did not know just going through this process.. isn't the beauty of wikipedia to inform people - can we push for a means of prioritizing links, for example 'list of', glossary definitions' could be automatically de-emphasized (the system clearly queries the links as part of rendering the page, because it knows about redlinks, and there's a facility to highlight disambiguation pages too) Fmadd (talk) 11:30, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The article was recently delisted of its GA status but I have doubts about its notability. Nearly half of its sources are dialogue from the game, one is a press release, another is an abandonware website, two are interviews, and the Gameplanet link is dead. The lack of any real secondary sources for the article has me believing the article should be deleted. GamerPro64 19:22, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment : I really don't like the way the article implies that this was an official release in the Halflife franchise. (Even listing Valve as "Publisher" in the infobox instead of "distributor".). Sure, back then non-valve games didn't appear on Steam much, but it wasn't a "serious" release. They just thought it was funny.

What about that search is supposed to inspire confidence in it meeting the GNG? The fact that it has zero professional professional (or user) reviews on Metacritic? Or the fact that major video game websites like IGN have zero articles on the subject, only a short database entry that isn't significant coverage.

L3X1 I don't see "being a stub" listed under any of 14 criteria of WP:DEL-REASON. Category:All stub articles currently has 2,023,704 articles – do you propose deleting them all? As to the nominator's reasons, among other achievements the subject has won a silver medal at the Olympics as a coach, fulfilling WP:ANYBIO criterion of [having] made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field., and with few thousand news hits over a 20-year long career span as a coach {FIVB}, including full-length interviews in Politika, and shorter mentions in ESPN or USA Today. No such user (talk) 12:47, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No such user I use Delreason as a general policy, not an exact. I think when I delete, not outsource it to a broad policy. I'm not a deletionist. As for stubs, I am okay with stubs existing. I am more comfortable deleting an article with 30 words than 30,000 bytes. And as far as I can tell, coaches don't get medals from the IOC. [1] L3X1 My Complaint Desk 13:59, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

References

Whether they get that piece of metal is irrelevant: what they get as a result is achievement and notability, which translates to a Wikipedia article. And it's not that Terzić wasn't notable even without that particular medal. And you're supposed to argue on an Afd on the basis of an established policy, not on a policy as you'd like it to be. No such user (talk) 14:05, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@No such user: I disagree. WP:NOLY (as well as everything else under NATHLETE) does not include coaches. Maybe you think it should. I recommend you raise that issue at the applicable talk page rather than argue it here. Had Terzic been an athlete I would not have nominated this article. I'm applying the rules as they read now, not as some would prefer them to read. You could accomplish more writing an essay arguing that coaches deserve the same notability their athletes do and cite that. Chris Troutman (talk) 14:43, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Whether the get that piece of metal is irrelevant nope. You said he got a medal. I said and cited that coaches receive nothing from the IOC. L3X1 My Complaint Desk 15:08, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Chris troutman: WP:NOLY is a complete red herring. This is the first time I heard about that SNG and I haven't mentioned it in this debate at all. By your line of thought, we should delete Bill Belichick – he fails WP:NOLY as well, never competing nor coaching at the Olympics. My point is that just like Belichick, Terzić fulfills WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO with flying colors, a fact that you could have simply discovered WP:BEFORE wasting our collective time with this nomination. And even for a literalist worldview, WP:NSPORT itself mentions word "coach" 32 times, including (in the WP:NTRACK) section Coaches that have coached many notable athletes, including at least one (non-relay) Olympic medalist,... – surely that ought to apply to a medalist *team* coach as well? <sarcasm>Or do we have to specifically add a section on Volleyball to carry the point across?</sarcasm> No such user (talk) 16:15, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@No such user: NOLY is part of NSPORT and that's a guideline so I assume you mean that the word coach should be found there even though it's not. You ask "do we have to specifically add a section on Volleyball to carry the point across" and I reply yes. The guideline says what it says. If it had said otherwise I wouldn't have nominated it. My nominating articles that result in "keep" hurts my AfD percentage. I'm not making these nominations to be POINTy. I performed research per WP:BEFORE, I (still) find the subject fails GNG and he fails applicable SNGs. (Mere mentions don't carry GNG for me.) I'm not accustomed to checking out an article, finding the subject doesn't strictly meet criteria, and then letting it slide; I'm not an inclusionist. Again, if you don't like the SNG this isn't the place to argue what you want NSPORT to say. I also don't understand this distaste of my apparent "literalist worldview". Silly me, I'm dispassionately applying Wikipedia's consensus impartially but thanks for criticizing me. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:39, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Sandstein: If anything is weakly argued here, it is the nominator's point. In fact, I find it bizarre to even state that a coach who has won 4 world or continental medals and has thousands articles written and interviews given fails GNG and ANYBIO, that I didn't even consider further engagement with such silly arguments.

For those of the "literalist worldview": the lead sentence in his interview to Politika, the oldest and most respected Serbian daily, translation mine: About Zoran Terzić (50) one can safely say that he is the "father" of Serbian women's national team, having in mind that he has been at its helm for a decade and a half, but also that he has won one medal per year on average (15 in total), including all World Volleyball Federation events and the European Games in Baku.

Delete. WP:BLP of a writer and filmmaker, with some advertorial overtones ("Joshua has harnessed these experiences to help others with the powerful reach of cinematic messages, which offer hope, visibility and forms of fantastical and inspirational escapes to marginalized people"), whose claims of notability are potentially valid but nowhere close to reliably sourced. This is based mainly on primary sources, such as Ferguson's own Twitter, the film's Indiegogo campaign, the website of Ferguson's production company, and on and so forth -- and the fewer reliable sources that are being cited here are not about Ferguson, but virtually all just blurbingly namecheck Ferguson's existence as a provider of soundbite in an article about someone or something else. There's literally just one source here (#29) that's both substantively about Ferguson and independent of their own self-published web presence -- and even that source is just a "what are they doing now" profile in the context of Ferguson being a past winner of a non-notable educational scholarship, not anything that would constitute a strong WP:CREATIVE claim in and of itself. As always, no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when Ferguson's notability can be sourced properly -- but they're not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because they exist, and this is not the kind of referencing it takes to get them over the bar.

Who is @Phyo, what is his expertise and how he confirm that "Non-notable researcher/hacker", hacker database (https://www.soldierx.com/hdb/Ye-Yint-Min-Thu-Htut) is not enough for reference that @Ye_Yint_Min_Thu_Htut is security researcher?. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kyaw Thiha89 (talkcontribs) 04:25, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@kyaw, It is ok and I agreed for AFD. He is my state school senior at St.Augustine and Doctor @MOH. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yeyintminthuhtut (talkcontribs) 07:42, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@ Whatisyourbug, Yeyintminthuhtut, Kyaw Thiha89, et al. I have no intention to offend you by calling Non-notable researcher/hacker outside the Wikipedia, and just commented to a Wikipedia article about its notability according to Wikipedia guidelines. In this case, it is not my remark on you, just to the Wikipedia article. Non-notable means the article fails to show notability / no reliable sources found to verify notability in Wikipedia. Wikipedia has a policy regarding biographies of living persons. There are certain things that Wikipedia is not. Thank you for your contributions in Wikipedia.

Delete. Biography of an actor and film director, which is not reliably sourcing him over WP:NACTOR or WP:CREATIVE for any particular accomplishment besides existing. Nearly all of his listed roles as an actor are either short films or "uncredited", and virtually all of his listed films as a director are short films -- and for sourcing, what we have here is two directories (the Internet Broadway Database and Findagrave) rather than any actual reliable source coverage about him. As always, no prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can demonstrate notability properly, but he has to be the subject of reliable source coverage in media, not just nominally verifiable in a couple of databases, to earn an encyclopedia article. Bearcat (talk) 14:32, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Keep Fails WP:NACTOR and WP:DIRECTOR. Has played named roles in multiple notable films. None appear to be significant. Better sourcing might change my mind. I haven't been able to locate any myself. Added sources sufficient to meet [WP:DIRECTOR]. Gab4gab (talk) 18:27, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I can't believe this discussion is taking place of all the bios(WP:FILMBIO) I've contributed. You'd think people here would be grateful. How many people in the silent and sound entertainment are listed whom are much more insignificant than Durkin. He should have long had an article thats why I made one up on him. Just because a few people don't know of him doesn't mean he wasn't significant or doesn't count. That's the whole point of the article to teach you. He was a stage, screen actor and screen director which should get him place on wikipedia. He doesn't have to be Cecil B. DeMille. Most of Durkins directorial efforts are lost as I would expect many who edit silent movies would understand.Koplimek (talk) 21:12, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody said he has to be Cecil B. DeMille — but what he does have to be is reliably sourceable as passing an actual notability criterion in either WP:NACTOR or WP:CREATIVE, which is a significantly higher standard than "user-generated databases like Findagrave and IBDb verify that he existed". And nobody owes you a cookie just because you're here, either — your job in creating articles is to demonstrate and source notability properly, which you did not do in this case. Bearcat (talk) 15:54, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say you or anybody owed me anything. The article was sourced WP rules. Koplimek (talk) 23:27, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, it wasn't. Findagrave and IBDb are not sources that assist in demonstrating notability. It's possible that the article might be salvageable with proper sources, which it looks like some other users are starting to do below, but there was nothing in the article at the time of nomination that constituted a valid source.

  • Keep. The subject had an entry in a 1914 Who's Who for American theater, which I've added to the article as a general reference (and left it to the article's creator to extract details for use in the article itself). Also, here is a listing of theater publications that mention the subject. Most of them are brief mentions, but can be used to reliably source the subject's appearances on the American stage. I didn't do any checking for contemporaneous film appearances, but there's enough here about his theater work to sustain the article. NewYorkActuary (talk) 08:21, 16 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, I find that publication and the Notable People in Music and Drama book are fine sources for info on so long ago performers who through early death, marriage, retirement are long forgotten. I saw Durkin's entry in Notable People several days ago but put off entering it. I sometimes forget the title of the book but always go back to Henry B. Harris wiki cause he's the first person I retrieved the info from that source on. Cheers!Koplimek (talk) 15:50, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Since nomination the necessary independent third party references have been added to bring this article up to strength.

  • Delete. Local television journalists at the individual- station level are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist — they get articles only if and when they can be reliably sourced over WP:GNG. And regardless of the notability or non-notability of winning a regional Emmy, even winning a national Emmy would not confer an exemption from having to be reliably sourced over GNG; the article would still have to be sourced to actually get kept, and IMDb is not sourcing. I'm willing to reconsider this if proper referencing can be shown, but nothing here exempts her from having to be the subject of coverage in reliable sources. Bearcat (talk) 15:16, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The only real potential hook for notability is her Emmy, and despite whatever unproven guideline/consensus around a regional Emmy not being a useful notability hook is referred to above (if you can't link it, it doesn't exist), it is reasonable to search for RS coverage per GNG surrounding an impressive award like this. So, I did this search, and in terms of any deep coverage beyond mentions, I turned up dry. But if anyone else can turn up something, I'm willing to reconsider my !vote. Stevie is the man! TalkWork 18:18, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep  I had no trouble in finding in-depth coverage such as [12] [13], and [14].  I didn't look further because with the raw vote count here, the closer will either reject all of the deletes as without evidence, or count them up without regard to evidence.  On-air personalities gain attention directly from the public, which goes directly to Wikipedia's understanding of notability as attention from the world at large.  Like other evidence, a regional Emmy shows attention to the topic by the world at large.  Also note that there are references in the article not specifically identified as citations, such as Louisville Business First and Louisville Magazine.  That leaves a lot of uncited material in the article that might require cuts or research to cite, but a stub would have value to the encyclopedia.  Unscintillating (talk) 03:53, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    All three of those linked sources are minor media and local to the subject's hometown.

  • Delete The local sources aren't enough to raise it to meet WP:GNG in my opinion because they are routine coverage in local sources. An announcement by a local media organization of who is going to be hosting the news being covered by local news papers shouldn't automatically grant one inclusion in Wikipedia.

I tried to search for sources, but the language barrier is pretty high. Here's an interview with her in Waterpolo News.gr; a video interview on SportsFeed.gr where she carries the medal around the neck. Short piece in novasports.gr states that "Goula celebrated the 2011 World Championship with the national Greece in Shanghai." this piece in Pisina.net is about her difficulties to find a club for this season as she's tied to her duties in the Navy. So there's steady coverage about her career over the years. No such user (talk) 10:02, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence that this requires a standalone article: what little coverage there is can easily be included in Premiership of Narendra Modi. We cannot and should not have a separate article about every policy, initiative, and soundbyte from every world leader. Furthermore, the article seems to consist largely of original research, or at the very least unsourced statements. Delete. Vanamonde (talk) 17:04, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The first comment clearly is WP:OVERZEALOUS of every policy, initiative, and soundbyte from every world leader having a separate article! Cashless Transaction is a term cited daily in India; National Media, Forums, Vans parading the streets of cities in India [1] have Cashless Transaction plastered on them as a mobile encyclopaedia which travels around the City. The article has much room for improvement, it is largely WP:INDY sources that will be developed as the initiative and awareness increases, it is an article to enrich the lives of Indians. There needs to be amendments to historical references too [2] to avoid WP:SHAREDNAME from archaic translations in India, cultural references [3] and systems which deserve a place on the Indian E-Commerce[4] system which is still under development compared to [5] which has an article directly linked to an E-Commerce Subject [6] with no argument for deletion.

Biography of a composer and reality TV participant. I find no coverage of him at all in secondary sources, but quite a few primary sources. His claim to notability as a composer is a song that was at number 19 on a list of the most frequently played songs on a Norwegian radio show in 2008 (previously wrongly credited in the article as one of the most frequently played songs on a radio channel). However, the sources do not mention his name - there's no particular reason to believe he is not the composer of the song, but the notability claim is extremely weak given that his name is not to be found, and given that the song itself did not chart.

The reality TV claim to notability is based on his participating in an entrepreneur contest on Norwegian TV and ending up in 5th place. He was also part of a panel of people who commented on the Norwegian parliamentary election in 2009, but again, that doesn't confer any particular notability when he was never actually given significant coverage in independent sources.

The article was created by a known paid editor (now blocked). It is also relevant to mention that the article about him was deleted as non-notable on no.wikipedia in 2014. Different Wikipedia versions have different notability criteria, but still. bonadea contributions talk 10:57, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • This composer meet the wikipedia Notability criteria for three reasons. First is that he has composed the music identity for a major television network (TV 2) for several years. This is the largest commercial televison network in Norway, Second is that he has composed the song waschera witch was many months on the national charts NRK MP3.
Third is that he composed the music for "breaking borders" on travel channel and My mercy box witch has been broadcasted in the whole of europe and USA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Norsktv (talkcontribs) 15:35, 7 February 2017 (UTC) Norsktv (talk · contribs) has only contributed to the article(s) under discussion for deletion and AFD.

NRK mP3 is not a national chart, it is a radio channel. And Waschera was the 19th most played song in 2008 on "Svisj", which is one of the shows on that channel; it did not feature on the main top-20 list for the channel as a whole. --bonadea contributions talk 19:25, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete - the topic might be notable as the article claims Dyngvold to have produced a notable film, but I find it to be unverifiable. - TheMagnificentist 19:05, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Does it say that he has produced a film, though? I think the claims are mainly that he has composed music for films (as well as for a "channel identity", which I think is some kind of promotional material for a TV channel, but I'm not sure). Composing for a notable film doesn't make him notable (just like every actor in a notable film is not automatically notable...) If he were a producer that might make it different, I agree. --bonadea contributions talk 19:25, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    The article does not say he produced a film, let alone a notable one. And in most cases it would not help much, film producers, as well as so many other people working behind the scene in cinema, are exceedingly difficult to source. Unfortunately. — Sam Sailor 00:49, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - copy-paste from my talk page: "I just scrolled through the filmography section in the article and randomly went to a movie article to see his role. There I saw he was credited as the producer. That's all that happened. I still the thought the article should be deleted but the production credit might have glimpse of sign that the topic may be notable, that's why it's a "weak delete" from me". - TheMagnificentist 06:51, 18 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Cedar Revolution. I have not found any reliable references in English, but what I have found pointed to the article subject's involvement in that event. I suspect searching in French and Arabic sources would provide better results, but because of the variability of transliterating Arabic names to English search terms, my ability to search correctly is limited. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 23:50, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Northamerica1000:, Usually I don't advocate redirects without that information but in this particular case, my searches have given me the distinct impression that I'm being too parochial. Even if I don't think any one individual source counts as WP:RS for notability purposes, there's enough in sum to give me the belief that non-English sources probably do exist. Perhaps the correct thing is to delete and hope those with access and understanding of such putative sources re-create it. Thanks for the reply.

Withdrawn by nominator - After doing a bit more digging, I finally found some reviews of her first work, "Circling the Drain", dating 1999. These include sources from "Los Angeles Times", "New York Times", and "Salon". Furthermore, in an article posted on Sun-Sentinel, Davis appeared in many magazines, including "Esquire" and "Seventeen". Finally, Davis appeared in a 2003 interview for Indy Week prior to her death, as seen here. Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 03:30, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@MereTechnicality: I fixed the category from BLP1E to BIO1E. Also, the incident was mentioned in the Asheville Regional Airport page since she and her family died 18 miles from the airport. Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 02:27, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article written as if it was a promotional blog for the books Jendrick has written. Nothing in the refs conveys any sense of notability - mostly links to Google books .

  • Google links appear to be bibliographies of other books that the author is cited in, which would give credit to the author being notable and referenced. Author is important to the doping-in-sports debate and has been in media as a subject expert, further adding notability. Article seems to just need improvement.

  • @Editsatnight: The article as presently written will be deleted. However, you could ask to have it moved to a draft on your page, where you could try to bring it up to standard. I recommend that you read all of the advice pages on how to create a page and on what sort of sources a individual needs pass our notability standards. And I also recommend that you spend a little time editing, It is the best way to learn how wikipedia works. Then try reading, and maybe improving, articles on swimming, writers who write about sports, or other topics that interest you. At that point, you will either see that the kind of sources necessary to build a page for Jendrick are lacking, or you will know how to write a proper, well-sourced page. You can make an offer here, and see if other editors agree to allow you to move this page to a draft. Good luck and I hope that you will join us and make the effort to become a capable editor here.E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:16, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fails PORNBIO and the GNG. No qualifying awards. No independent reliable sourcing. No nontrivial pertinent GNews or GBooks hits. Claimed award is not well-known or significant merely because it was given out at the same trade show, but by a different awardgiver, as a more notable award.
