One person imprisoned for a failed terrorist plot. The two Danish sources are both from May 2017. No indication that this event has the "lasting, historical significance" required for notability satisfying WP:EVENTCRITERIA. PamD 22:03, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep Well, I bet that User:PamD isn't from Denmark. This case has been discussed very broadly in all Danish major newspapers since January 2016.[1][2] The sentence she got is a milestone in Danish law decision. This case will have a major effect on future judgement regarding terrorist attacks. It started a big debate in Denmark about islam and refugees, being part of the arguments to close the border to Germany.[3] It was one of Denmark's biggest terrorist cases, with a large influence of the future of Denmark. So of course it is important.[4]--Rævhuld (talk) 22:34, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

Delete per failure to meet WP:LASTING and other criteria on WP:EVENT. Though a quick google search, I could find no national news sources in the U.S. that have even addressed this event. Sure, it may be different in Denmark but there are many similar incidents that have had coverage by English-speaking sources like the 2016 Balkans terrorism plot so that's not enough to say it's worth an article of its own.

- @Rævhuld I have read the links that I mentioned. The Daily Mail and RT are not WP:RS and I'm not arguing that it did not get substantial coverage in Denmark but WP:GEOSCOPE states "Coverage of an event nationally or internationally may make notability more likely, but such coverage should not be the sole basis for creating an article" so that can't be the only reason for creating an article. Furthermore, you nominated the 2017 Portland train attack for deletion despite it getting far more coverage than this, so we can't have a double standard when it comes to what is notable and what is not. Kamalthebest (talk) 23:06, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
- Well, your train attack DIDN'T get more coverage! It ONLY got more coverage in the USA! Not to mention that your train attack wasn't terrorism - this case is about terrorism and so more important. A lot of your news (even those you write articles about here on Wikipedia) are ONLY published in the USA. And you are not the centre of the universe, by the way. So either we make Wikipedia for America only, Donald Trumpish, or we follow the notability guidelines. And as you clearly can read: national coverage is enough. There is no rule there, claiming the entire event has to be heavily covered in US media to be relevant. Wikipedia is for all of us, not only for Americans. Wikipedia is meant to be for all of us! Coverage in national or international newspapers aren't the only things to look for. Lasting effect is another point. And you are right, it doesn't have a lasting effect on America, so therefore it is irrelevant ... for you.--Rævhuld (talk) 23:09, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Rævhuld: Please watch your WP:TONE, this is supposed to be a formal conversation. First, the train attack did not get only get coverage in the United States. The Guardian and The Independent are both British publications that reported on it. Al Jazeera is a Qatari source that reported on it. Second, it doesn't matter whether an event was terrorism or not since terrorism is not some magic label that automatically makes something notable. There have been over 125,000 terrorist incidents since 1970 and they all don't get their own articles. This wasn't even an attack, it was just a plot. Furthermore, "terrorism" is a notoriously ambiguous word since events with blatant political motivations such as the Charleston church shooting and Quebec City mosque shooting are never labelled terrorism.

The result was delete. There's reasonably clear consensus to delete, even after evaluating the sources found by Ammodramus. I see that Draft:Rivigo redirects here, which seems to be a violation of WP:CROSSNAMESPACE, and in anycase, WP:G8 (Pages dependent on a non-existent or deleted page) applies, so I'm going to delete that too.
There were a couple of suggestions to salt this title, but I don't see any consensus there, so I'm not going to do that. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:58, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

- Nirmit Arora A topic must reference multiple independent sources to meet the criteria for notability. The sources listed do not meet the criteria. The content of this article at the current time is, for me, a secondary issue. For example:
- This firstpost.com article relies on an interview and information provided by the founder and this type of article and format is often referred to as an "advertorial" - that is, an advert posing as an interview/news. It fails WP:ORGIND and is not acceptable to establish notability.
- This hindustantimes.com article fails for the same reason.
- This business-standard.com article also fails for the same reason.
- As does this Bloomberg article
- And this americanshipper.com article
- This thehindubusinessline.com article is debatable but in my opinion it squeaks by and is acceptable. Be aware that other editors may feel that it fails because it only mentions the company in passing and does not discuss any facts or information in relation to the company or its business.
- In summary, there is only one (weak) acceptable source listed. Multiple (two at a minimum) sources are required. This dealstreetasia article might be acceptable - it appears to qualify as a reliable secondary source but I would be more satisfied it another editor confirms this to be the case. If another source can be found, I'll likely be satisfied and will change my !vote to Keep. -- HighKing++ 11:15, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
- Nirmit Arora A topic must reference multiple independent sources to meet the criteria for notability. The sources listed do not meet the criteria. The content of this article at the current time is, for me, a secondary issue. For example:
- @HighKing: Thank you for providing the detailed information regarding the criteria. Much appreciated.
- I have added a few references as per the guidelines provided by you. I request you to check if these are satisfactory. --Nirmit Arora (talk) 12:14, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
- Nirmit Arora, please read WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND. Preferably, avoid any sources that contain photos and quotations from the company founders or other company officers, or sources that use any "announcements" as news stories (as they're simply rehashing Press Releases) including articles with phrases like "Rivigo announced" or "The CEO announced", etc. Avoid announcements of funding. Avoid announcements of people being hired or fired. Avoid lists such as "Top 10 companies that will definitely go big" or such stuff. Sources must be "intellectually independent" and sources that wholly rely on information from the company and their officers do not meet the criteria for establishing notability. The new sources you've added all fail for one (or more) reasons as listed above or in WP:CORPDEPTH/WP:ORGIND. Also, always attribute an article to where it was first published. This article might appear "intellectually independent" but it is copied from this article and the author is an employee of Rivigo. -- HighKing++ 13:23, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
- @HighKing: I would like to thank you one again for your patience and your assistance in improving the subject under discussion.
- I have removed the previous references and added three new ones which I believe fit the bill. I request you to please check the last three references in the list. --Nirmit Arora (talk) 09:14, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, in my opinion, perhaps the second one of the newest references meet the criteria. The indiatimes.com article doesn't as it is a selection of profiles of "startups" including Rivigo - I regard these as advertorials as each profile is complete with photo-of-founder and with headings like "X Factor" and "Moonshot Year". The livemint article is potentially OK - even though there are quotes from a company officer, the article appears intellectually independent and doesn't appear to be an advertorial and provides information on the usage of FASTags. The Bloombergquint article is only a mention in passing and fails the criteria. So I would say you have two weakish sources (but I'd prefer to wait for feedback from other editors on those sources before !voting Keep. For now, I've withdrawn my Delete !vote). -- HighKing++ 10:30, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

- @Bearian: WP:SALT - I am unable to understand why this article should be salted when the article has never been recreated. It has moved between the draft space and the main space after incorporation of the suggestions made by the editors.
- WP:MILL - Again I fail to understand why the subject under discussion is common or ordinary when there are sources which state otherwise. For example, the pact with the government or the introduction of FASTags.
- WP:SPAM - The only reason the I believe this can be considered as spam is due to the consecutive citations at the end of the article. Those were added during my discussion above with user HighKing. I will remove the unnecessary ones from the article. --Nirmit Arora (talk) 10:37, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
- Delete despite heroic effort by article creator. The sources are just lacking in terms of breadth and depth to show meeting GNG. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, after all, and the subject is just not encyclopedic. If anything, the content is more promotional than when DGG tagged it. One would think AfC would set higher standards than to loose this upon article space. Nice catch by Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi in sending it back to Draft space back when. Not sure WP:MILL applies-- one need not be "run of the mill" to not meet inclusion requirements for an encyclopedia. Closing admin, nota bene, does not require SALT. Has NOT been multiply recreated.Dlohcierekim (talk) 18:52, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep. A Google search turned up this piece in Economic Times, covering Warburg Pincus's investment of $75 million in the company; the authors of the article appear to be regular Economic Times contributors. Warburg Pincus discusses the company on its own website. A short piece in Mint, and similar pieces in other Indian media, briefly discuss Interbrand's inclusion of Rivigo on their 2017 "Breakthrough Brands" list. I think we've got enough attention from wide-circulation Indian media to meet WP:GNG, and enough detail to support a modest article without relying exclusively on company sources and echoes thereof.

The result was no consensus. There seems to be a consensus not to *delete* this information, and people want it kept in some form. Between the idea of merging and integrating with Internet censorship in India however there is less agreement.

The result was keep. I accept that the previous precedents set were for pages that had at least some non-boilerplate information on them. However, some of these pages already have potential candidates declaring an interest - especially London. The argument for deletion would be much stronger for pages that were not guaranteed to be eventually created. That is not the case here and the keep camp has pointed to a policy page that explicitly allows this kind of article. SpinningSpark 12:37, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

This is an article with no content and is far too far in to the future, it should be deleted now and recreated in the future. This fails policy on future articles which are nothing more than speculation, the essay Wikipedia:Too soon, should also be read here. The article also has no reliable source media coverage and any which would be generated at this stage would be nothing more than WP:ROUTINE, because the election is simply far to far in the future.

I would propose that the articles in question require expanding, rather than deleting. CarlDurose (talk) 08:36, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
None of the articles being proposed for deletion are national elections, and all of the articles which are non-national elections which were proposed for deletion were far closer to the actual event occurring, and had content on the pages. These pages are empty pages and nearly three years away, this is way too soon, as there is no information to go on the pages, other than wild speculation.

- There are no actual arguments to keep empty articles hanging around for years, put forward here, the previous consensus' was we have had the previous elections now. That is hardly a compelling reason based on sound policy to keep articles with no information hanging around. Quoting WP:Crystal directly here "are not appropriate article topics if nothing can be said about them that is verifiable". These articles clearly fall in that clause.

French–Greek academic without significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent (third-party) sources. (?) Only outside coverage besides first-party sources is a BBC interview.

- Oppose I'm not sure how to use Worldcat author pages properly, but it looks to me like the page you linked doesn't include all of his works.

Another criteria: "The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources." 113 citations, 91 of which are since 2012. (Google Scholar) He may meet another criterion based on the popularity of his works in Christian Anarchist zines, etc., "The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity."

- @Czar: I started reading some of the reviews, but I'm realizing this is going to need a major rewrite to focus on the book and incorporate perspectives of various reviewers. I would like to userfy it by moving the page into my userspace until I can read more reviews and write an article worthy of mainspace. In the meantime, Alexandre Christoyannopoulos should redirect to Christian anarchism, in which he is repeatedly mentioned. Okay? Sondra.kinsey (talk) 16:16, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Fine by me, but we can also just gut the article in mainspace, leaving the references and a stub that you can expand. Either is fine, but if you don't want to work in mainspace, I'd recommend redirecting the current version and building the book article in your userspace separately. Then we can always change the redirect target later. (Also note that many of those source may not be reliable if they aren't coming from publications or academic journals with an editorial process and reputation for checking facts, so I wouldn't use the weaker of the refs.) czar 16:59, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

Where there is only one or two hospitals it would be better for the template to directly link them, or else merge the material somewhere else where it can be linked. SpinningSpark 13:00, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
- We don't have a list article for San Marino, Italy or Poland either. Furthermore many of the list articles are very poor. They include all kinds of medical facilities, most of which would not now be regarded as hospitals. It seems reasonable to limit list articles to places with more than one.

The scope of this list is too large for it to be genuinely useful to a reader. "Too large to be useful" is one of the things that WP:CSC warns against.

I can't find any significant coverage of this player from independent, reliable sources. It seems like his only claim to fame is declaring for the 2017 NBA draft as an underclassmen, which doesn't meet any notability standard nor does it indicate he meets WP:GNG. There are no rules about who can apply for the draft, anyone can do it, even a lower-division player like Cetoute. Down the road, maybe he has a successful professional career and meets GNG, but he has not met notability standards as a college player. Rikster2 (talk) 14:35, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

No one, and I do mean no one that I'm aware of, even mentions Clandell Cetoute as a potential draft candidate for any team in the 2017 NBA Draft. However, there have been times where I was genuinely surprised about the NBA Draft beforehand (Tanguy Ngombo in 2011, anyone?), so you never know with these cases. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised at some point, he gets onto either an NBA team (if only as a two-way affiliate or something like that) or finds some success in the upcoming NBA Gatorade League season moving forward (assuming he even gets to that point altogether). Therefore, while I feel no qualms about deleting this article altogether, it would be wise to remember some of this information in the near future, just in case he does find some success in his professional career moving forward. – AGreatPhoenixSunsFan (talk) 04:02, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

- Delete. If I understand this right, what notability she has seems to be primarily as a photographer, and primarily attested via the European Union Migrant Artists Network (EU-MAN) and its magazine Universal Colours. Each is currently redlinked -- in itself, this isn't damning, but they're so obscure that Google doesn't even find them mentioned in en.wikipedia.org (aside from this one article). Let's take a look at the issue of Universal Colours whose PDF is linked in a reference. Near the front of this, there's something oddly titled "The obligation", which seems to be some sort of statement of intent. Here's how it starts: "This is our 18th years of work; meaning we are adults now, meaning we can decide by ourselves, meaning we can be independent and can move from our father and mother dominance. It means and means and means and so on." This doesn't look at all promising. So I disagree with Exemplo347 (above): don't start again from scratch; instead, just remove. -- Hoary (talk) 06:22, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. The article claims exhibitions in museums and public galleries around the world, for which I didn't find any references. The Universal Colours I found with article about her is a promotional publication, which prints articles about artists who pay them to be printed, which excludes it from the list of independent sources. So, unless someone provides verifiable links to here exhibitions, the article clearly can't stay and it's not salvageable. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 13:12, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

We shouldn't promote this by having an article in our project: It's an article self-advertising a self-advertiser. Plus, the corresponding article in the German Wikipedia sister project - Neutert is a German citizen - has been deleted twice (just a month ago for the last time) because of his proven encyplopedic irrelevance. I suggest to trust our colleagues and delete the article also here. Richpovertist (talk) 09:24, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

- According to de:Wikipedia:Löschkandidaten/14._März_2017#Natias_Neutert_.28gel.C3.B6scht.29, the deleting admin believes the person is notable enough for a short article, but they decided the article was hopeless, so WP:TNT was the only way to be sure. I do also believe Neutert is notable enough, but would recommend stubbing and starting over. —Kusma (t·c) 21:18, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
- Dear admin Kusma, You are a German living here in the UK. That's helpful since you understand both English and German. But the question if Neutert is notable enough to have an article here is not a question of belief but rather of facts, isn't it? He has published only one book and has never had a major role on screen which doesn't make him an author or a film star. At least according to Google, there is no media coverage in this century on Mr Neutert. I just don't see which criteria this person meets according to our regulations which I have linked above for any interested third party. Starting over respectively TNT would end up in getting the same messy current article which is (and will certainly be again) overloaded with pictures that have nothing to do at all with Neutert (like the Karl Marx stamp) and numerous tiny bits of unimportant pieces of information ... From my point of view, this man is just a minor artist who misuses this project for showmanship. This, however, is not the purpose of Wikipedia. I'm afraid, this leads to the deletion of the article in question. Otherwise, naming the facts that make him notable should be mentioned here. Cheers --Richpovertist (talk) 22:39, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
- He is an artist/author/activist who was most active in the 1960s to 1980s. According to Google, there are lots of mentions in books in the last century (but he seems less active now). Yes, he is a self promoter, but that is not in itself a reason not to have an article about him. You say we should not have an article about him, but the German Wikipedia discussion ended in the decision to allow an article about him, just not the one they had (which was probably very similar to the one we have at the moment). I am willing to buy the argument that we can find only thousands of minor mentions that do not give us enough to write a properly sourced biography without WP:OR, but I object to characterising this state of affairs as "proven encyplopedic irrelevance". —Kusma (t·c) 05:45, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
- I tried to read the discussion in our German sister project although my German is a bit rusty (ehem), so I might got things wrong but wasn't one of the major aspects mentioned there that they questioned the sources and pointed out that some assertions like attending Leipzig university in East Germany in the end of the 1960s simply couldn't be true a.k.a. were lies? Talking about the awards, all three were no awards as one of the other users pointed out in their statement. And the "picture issue" (buildings and things that were in the article to make it look more important) was obviously the same in the German article. Once again: If we TNT the current article, someone else will come up with exactly the same using shady sources. And please, don't try to elude. Neutert is a self promoter, and according to your statement this is no objection for having an article. Could you tell me exactly how this goes along with WP:BIO? The section for entertainers reads: "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." (no); "Has a large fan base or a significant 'cult' following." (no); "Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment." (no). Additionally, the points mentioned for creative professionals do not apply to Neutert either. The statement of the German colleagues can be seen as helpful clues for us but we should also have an independent discussion, following our own rules. I'm very sorry to object you but we usually do not grant self promoters an article here. Why should we do it in Neutert's case? From my point of view, he does not match any of our criterias.—It were a plus though to hear a third and fourth opinion on that. Cheers, --Richpovertist (talk) 16:07, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
- I do find it curious that you are so certain what "we usually do" when your account is just a few days old. The problem with Neutert and WP:BIO is that he is a bit of a jack of many trades, and is borderline notable as a journalist, borderline notable as a poet, borderline notable as a performer, while not clearly passing any of the standards of WP:BIO (the most appropriate one is WP:ARTIST's "regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors"). Your objection against turning this into a decent stub seems to be "people will edit it again" which isn't a problem, as they can be reverted again. The greater problem from my point of view seems to be that it is difficult to write a decent stub, and maybe we shouldn't have an article without better secondary sources (basically, that is how I understand why we have the WP:GNG). I would also welcome a broader discussion. —Kusma (t·c) 21:59, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

- Keep - I researched Natias Neutert and, based on my findings, he appears notable. He has more than 500 hits on his name through Google Books, and the citations in the article back up this notability. All that said, the article needs to be rewritten b/c the language is very rough and doesn't flow well. But that's not a concern which would cause the article to be deleted.--SouthernNights (talk) 01:01, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Calvo-Sotelo about Spain's transition to democracy, a clearly notable topic, but as mentioned at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Papers from an unemployed person books don't inherit notability from the notability of their chosen subject area.

- Ouch, this one is killing me! 1950s record label! I've done my best to find sources, and from what I've gathered the label issued some extremely obscure but historically important pre-rock music. This is discussed in some detail by knowledgeable collectors on message boards and blogs, which unfortunately don't help with WP:V. I imagine there are some pre-internet record-collecting magazines or rock-music history publications that deal with it, but I've not located them. So with great sadness I have to recommend redirect, but not to List of Record Labels, because only labels with articles are kept there, so such a listing would be removed. Instead, it makes the most sense to redirect to Jimmy Cavallo as it is this artist for whose releases this label has become sought-after by collectors, and which generates the internet chatter. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 16:29, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
- Redirect to Jimmy Cavallo per 78.26. It seems the label is discussed more there than the article itself, so that's an amicable way to deal with the situation. FWIW, I would oppose a redirect to List of record labels: A-H. The list of record labels are only for notable labels, and if it's decided here that this label isn't notable, then it should be removed from that list. -- Tavix (talk) 20:57, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

- delete. Yes, it was widely reported at the time but WP is not a news organisation charged with recording every headline and news item. A few months from now this will be forgotten, and as such it has no long-term notability, either as an event or an individual.--JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 22:43, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
- I can see the point of deleting it, for the reason it's not notable for an encyclopedia. The larger point seems to be the influence of the CSSA imposing Chinese state-run air quality "standards" and general authoritarian influence into the American discourse. A commencement speech at an American university is not the place to smog facts, comparing only Chinese cities and ignore higher standards outside China, only for the sake of avoiding ruffling princeling feathers. DavidBoudreau (talk) 09:11, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Fueled by Global Times and CSSA, this speech has caused widespread controversy in China. --DukeAnt (talk) 03:30, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: This event has extremely high notability in China, reported as "Shuping Yang Humiliation-of-China Speech" (杨舒平辱华演讲) in most Chinese media, but I wonder what the notability is in the whole world. In my opinion, it is just simply showing the over nationalism, xenophobia and siege mentality among the Chinese mob. Some popular Chinese proverbs such as 家丑不可外扬 (domestic scandals should not be known by others) just simply shows Chinese-style xenophobia. Some popular Chinese proverbs such as 狗不嫌家贫,子不嫌母丑 (dog never despises the poverty of its master, and son never despises the ugliness of his mother) only shows the Chinese-style slavery-deserving mentality. --Yejianfei (talk) 04:06, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Holding political office at the county board level does not constitute an automatic WP:NPOL pass in and of itself — on rare occasions, an officeholder at that level of government might have enough reliable source coverage to clear WP:GNG, but most don't. The lowest level of political office that guarantees an article to every officeholder is the state legislature. And this article is referenced entirely to primary sources (his own website and the board's own website) that cannot support notability at all, along with being written far more like a campaign brochure than like an actual encyclopedia article.

American academic without significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent (third-party) sources. (?) As for the scholar notability guideline, he is an associate (not full) prof, and has fairly low Google Scholar citations. Biggest book is "Anarchism and the crisis of representation", held in 183 libraries, but even that doesn't appear to have been reviewed widely enough to be independently notable.

- Keep: However much a "puck app" sets my teeth on edge, I'm at a complete loss as to how the nom could believe that the likes of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, the Winnipeg Free Press or Canadian Business aren't reliable sources. Ravenswing 23:01, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete the issue isn't one of sources. The issue is that mobile apps aren't inherently notable, and there's no sign this is more notable. The press coverage is mostly promotional/launch related, there's no sign the app ever was widely used, or that this is more notable than [13], a different mobile app named "Puck". Power~enwiki (talk) 04:01, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: Quite aside from that is the issue -- the nom's words are unambiguous -- what does any of that matter? We're not talking about "inherent" notability, this is a GNG pass, pure and simple, and notability on Wikipedia fundamentally flows from whether or not a subject's discussed at length in reliable sources, period. Whether this is more or less "notable" than other such apps, whether there's a similarly named app, or how widely this is used, all those are WP:ITSNOTIMPORTANT arguments that form no part of deletion policy. Heck, if the app never existed at all, that wouldn't be a bar. Category:Vaporware Ravenswing 16:40, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
Comment: from my recent contributions/experience I've got one question: why can't wikipedia editors summarise all the guidelines and then follow the summary instead of doing that, they seem to follow every policy to the letter. They are called "guidelines" for a reason. They are not golden rules. We are humans, with logic. —usernamekiran(talk)(log) 16:55, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- Reply: Indeed we are, and before we should ditch a clear notability guideline, we need a really good reason to do so. No case has been made that this article is so injurious to Wikipedia that we need to ignore the fundamental guideline used to assess the notability of subjects to do so, or that you seemingly ignoring WP:BEFORE was called for. Ravenswing 17:15, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Ravenswing: nope. I did proper work before nominating it for deletion. So we should be WP:LAWYER unless the article is eligible for speedy? —usernamekiran(talk)(log) 19:04, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
- Not if you claim that there's no discussion of the subject in reliable sources, you didn't. Either you didn't bother looking at the sources, or you didn't bother with verifying that they're reliable. Ravenswing 20:41, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep Original creation of the article clearly has reliable sources where the 'puck app' is the subject of the article. Inline citations, easy to access stories on a small page. I assume I am missing some other criteria for deletion, lack of reliable sources does not make sense.18abruce (talk) 21:28, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - I don't see a basis for deletion. Apps may not be inherently notable, but this one passes GNG based on significant coverage in reliable sources (which are already cited in the article). And while GNG is a guideline that doesn't always need to be followed, no one has presented a good reason for not following it here nor am I aware of one (and WP:IDONTLIKEIT is not a valid reason). Rlendog (talk) 15:44, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment - every reference is a primary source, contemporaneous with news coverage of its launch. There is no secondary coverage of this app, meaning that it will fail WP:GNG. Power~enwiki (talk) 00:19, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
- Reply: Errr ... the Winnipeg Free Press? Canadian Business? The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation? You may be as unclear as to the definition of a "primary" source as the nom is of reliable, independent sources which provide "significant coverage" to subjects. Ravenswing 04:25, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

- Strong keep - The Wikipedia Guide to Deletion directs nominators, "First do the necessary homework and look for sources yourself, and invite discussion on the talk page by using the notability template, if you are disputing the notability of an article's subject. The fact that you haven't heard of something, or don't personally consider it worthy, are not criteria for deletion. You must look for, and demonstrate that you couldn't find, any independent sources of sufficient depth." (Italics mine.) Apparently this nom did not do such a search. In addition, WP:GNG states, if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability. While the article as it existed at the time of AfD nomination had only a single source, a cursory search reveals many reliable sources, including reviews of her many publications on libraries in schools. This reference dicusses in depth her work defining the role of school librarians in progressive education.— Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 15:42, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

Unreferenced and incomprehensible. Because the English is so garbled, hard to say whether it makes a credible claim for significance, but doesn't establish notability. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:00, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
- Weak delete. My reading of the article has him as a sort of state-level politician in Nigeria, but quite possibly not an office-holder. A Google search doesn't give an awful lot of hope, as there appear to have been similar figures with similar names. Assuming none of these are this gentleman known by a nickname/shortened name, then my delete opinion is stronger. The fact that it's unreferenced is an issue as well, although it's possible that this will be a sort of "pre-internet" subject, given the era and location.

However, I cannot say whether these are talking about the person in the article. Also, I cannot tell if the page is about a living or dead person, so there may be unreferenced BLP issues. Because I can't see whether notability is met or not for this person, that's why I'm leaning towards delete. Seagull123 Φ 16:22, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
