Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2018 April 24
- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was Delete and redirect to Anal cancer. There is near-unanimous agreement here that this (disambiguation) page should not exist, and as such this has closed as delete. That being said, however, I will be creating this once again as a redirect to Anal cancer. Numerous folks below suggest it, and especially given the history of this page, it's a reasonable WP:ATD. Redirects need not be 100% clear, they need not even be correct, they need to be useful. Only a couple of folks suggest it wouldn't be useful, but I don't find that argument persuasive, especially given the support for redirecting, the RfD, and the redirect's existence for over seven years. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 00:53, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

WP is not censored, but I don't see any reason to give credence to use of the term "ass cancer." I can't find any reliable sources using the term, certainly. Used as an internet joke/meme, but not a serious term which should be given a DAB. Anyone wondering about ass cancer can certainly think of synonym for ass. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 22:40, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - I agree with nom. It seems to be and internet joke/meme but I don't see any mentions of it or at least not to an extent that it warrants an article of its own. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Butch.labajo (talk • contribs)

- Redirect to anal cancer. None of the rest apply and thus not a good disambig. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 11:41, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
- @Doc James, Ozzie10aaaa, and SSSB: - You all suggested a redirect without stating a plausible reason why. Redirecting does not solve the issue that no reliable sources (or even unreliable ones) use "ass cancer" to refer to anal cancer in any serious way. Why is a redirect suitable? Ass being a synonym for anus is not a grounds for having a redirect. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 13:29, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

- Redirect to anal cancer (SSSB (talk) 17:11, 27 April 2018 (UTC)) as anal cancer is the only link on Ass cancer which could potentially apply. SSSB (talk) 14:44, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- Is it? Why couldn't colorectal cancer apply (especially rectal cancer)? Why couldn't cancer of the buttocks (be it skin cancer on the buttocks or soft-tissue sarcoma in the buttocks) apply? TompaDompa (talk) 15:19, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- redirect to anal cancer--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 20:11, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
- Delete and WP:SALT. As no WP:RELIABLE sources use the term, a case could be made that it violates WP:DEL6 as a WP:Neologism. It could similarly be argued that it violates WP:DEL6 as it is WP:Original research that the phrase refers to any of the listed types of malignancy – indeed, a better case (based on usage in sources) could be made that it's a humorous term for flatulence.
I would strongly oppose redirecting to any of the articles on the disambiguation page (as has been suggested above, specifically to anal cancer) on the grounds that "ass cancer" is a broad anatomical description of the location of the tumour, whereas the different articles on the disambiguation page vary both in tumour location within the larger anatomical region and histopathological characteristics of the malignant disease itself. It would be like redirecting "neck cancer" to "esophageal cancer" (whereas it could be glottic cancer, or hypopharyngeal cancer, or malignant melanoma, or something else). Or to use a non-medical analogy: it would be like redirecting "native American culture" to "Inca culture" (could be Aztec culture, or Maya culture, or Navajo culture, or Inuit culture, or Sioux culture, or something else). TompaDompa (talk) 00:52, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as not used that is, it lacks meaningful usage; with no redirect. I agree entirely with TompaDompa about the problems with imprecision, which undoubtedly contributes to its lack of meaningful usage. --Bejnar (talk) 07:29, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
Keep. I have several friends who had ass cancer in real life, and this page was instrumental in saving their lives, except one of my friends who died anyway, due to cancer of the ass.Captain Breakfast (talk) 14:24, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- While we don't deal in anecdotal evidence, see WP:Verifiability, I am curious how this page was instrumental in saving their lives. It seeems highly unlikely. I assume that they did not have colon cancer, as that would be inapposite. --Bejnar (talk) 23:20, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- This poor attempt at trolling should just be more evidence that "ass cancer" is part of some sick internet joke. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 13:32, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

- Delete per common sense. This is a joke. Gargleafg (talk) 22:26, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Due to lack of evidence of its usage in reliable sources. Wikipedia cannot establish new term for anything not found in sources. This looks like censorship of vulgar words but it is not, because the people calling for redirecting fail to show us the reliable sources that use the term. So this is cleanup of unverifiable internet culture stuff –Ammarpad (talk) 03:10, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - WP:HOAX. Kirbanzo (talk) 18:37, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - I created the current disambiguation version of this page after Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2014_October_8#Ass_cancer closed with no consensus, feeling that, per TompaDompa, that a disambiguation page was preferable to a misleading redirect. I would not be opposed to deleting, but calling it a WP:HOAX is a bit strong when a targeted google search returns 80,000 results and there are media sources ([1][2][3][4]) that use the term to refer to anal or colorectal cancers. Do I think that means that it is a notable enough term for Wikipedia? Of course not. But it's not a hoax. In the interest of full disclosure, I'm going to ping the other participants on the RfD (those that voted on both sides): @CFCF, Steel1943, Kablammo, Thryduulf, and BDD:. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 19:28, 1 May 2018 (UTC) - Keep. In the RfD I wrote "Disambiguate. Although this is often used in a juvenile way, it isn't only used in that manner. It's not an easy term to search for (I've been using "ass cancer" -wikipedia -"kick ass" -"dumb ass" -"fat ass" -"bad ass" (which will be removing some results I do want as well as those I don't). My findings are that it is used almost equally to mean colorectal cancer and anal cancer and also occasionally cancer in the buttocks (which can be one of at least two different types of cancer). Thryduulf (talk) 10:00, 9 October 2014 (UTC)" I've just done the same search again and found exactly the same findings. Thryduulf (talk) 23:28, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Subject does not seem notable for inclusion. The only claim to notability here is being a former President of RSUA, which I doubt that in itself is an automatic pass of our notability guidelines. The article has zero sources that are independent of the subject and I could not find better ones. RetiredDuke (talk) 21:32, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

Article about this "inventor" has utterly zero citations and a lot of the material is very thoroughly dubious. For example, building an "airplane" out of poplar, and doing so in the 1890s-- which was when the first structures were built in other places. Smells like a hoax. --Calthinus (talk) 16:44, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- The article also flatly contradicts itself-- at one point it says his "first invention" was in 1902, after that alleged airplane he "invented". --Calthinus (talk) 16:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- The more I look at this article the dumber it gets. We have random quotes from his "life" as well as his grades in grade school (in an institution I strongly suspect didn't actually exist as most schools in Kosovo at that time would likely have Turkish or Arabic, not Albanian, names...). --Calthinus (talk) 21:36, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

- Delete - but probably not a straightforward hoax: After some Googling, I rather doubt that this is at least intentionally a hoax article. Some online mentions seem to date back at least ten years, well before the article was created. And some of these make reference to a Kosovan journalist, sq:Kadrush Sylejmani, who is stated by Albanian Wikipedia (using Google Translate) to have published two monographs, one in the 1970s and another in the early 1990s, on the subject. So far, I have relatively little doubt about the evidence. However, I have doubts about Sylejmani's reliability - there is at least one available review of the later monograph and, while enthusiastic, it reveals some awkward aspects. Sylejmani largely based his work on oral evidence from the subject's surviving family and friends; a couple of remarks make it obvious that he is willing to speculate beyond the available evidence; and (perhaps most embarrassingly) the reviewer clearly independently knew of an alternative account of the airplane episode in which the "airplane" was, rather more plausibly, actually a balloon. It may also be noted that, at the time he wrote the second monograph, Sylejmani was apparently strongly supporting the cause of Kosovan independence against then continuing rule by Serbia, and keen to highlight past Kosovan heroes who were clearly Muslim ethnic Albanian rather than Christian Serbian. The impression I get is that the subject almost certainly existed, and was quite likely a fairly capable amateur scientist in a rather unlikely setting. However, it seems very possible that local legends had been growing around him even before Sylejmani came on the scene, but that Sylejmani then managed to hype them to the point where I suspect that he convinced himself that a decent if derivative scientist who was also a no doubt pious Muslim local religious figure was a perfect Muslim pioneering scientific genius. Perhaps a hoax, but quite a while back now and not necessarily intentional. PWilkinson (talk) 19:40, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- PWilkinson -- thanks a ton for doing this research on the issue! This explains a lot. --Calthinus (talk) 20:16, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- by the time of the later monograph, he was fairly clearly operating as a Kosovan propagandist against Serbian rule

An artist. No idea whether she's notable, but the content is pure promotionalism only slightly veiled by nonsensical blather ("Instead of observing people, she is interpreting the earth as the person or the body"). Borderline WP:G11. If the topic is notable, the article would need a rewrite from scratch. Sandstein 18:30, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
Withdrawn. On second look, her SIKART entry indicates a treatment depth of 4 out of 5, which makes her definitely notable in our terms, but the article is so worthless that it needs TNT-ing and recreation from scratch. I'll try that first. Sandstein 18:34, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

After reading this erasure query in the Wikipedia in Spanish, I think it does not seem relevant to have the article of someone who has only won awards for having more followers in social networks, and their participation as an actor have been not very notable, not I'm a fan of him, nor do I follow him. Until now the only notable thing that I have seen that is will participate in the Luis Miguel series. Philip J Fry / talk 23:25, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

Is there anything more remarkable than that?.--Philip J Frytalk 19:51, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: What? If you say that it is only YouTuber, it is because you have not read the article. I gonna give some reasons in bullet points:
- 30 under 30 from Forbes.
- Model with different international brands, parades and events.
- Movies, shorts and series (ok, as a secondary actor, but this is not a problem in Wikipedia)
- International aid campaign
- Conferences at Oxford, Harvard and guest at world conferences such as the World Economic Forum 2018. Ref WEF 2018
- Creator of clothing company.
- One of the most famous personalities in Mexico on the internet.
- Icon of a television channel (MTV Latin America)
- He is the co-author of a book --DatGuyonYouTube (talk)rita Ref
If you had read the article, you would see that YouTuber, in fact, is not his most important network/work. --Viajaste (talk) 22:59, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

- Keep for the reasons listed above. The fact that he has attended "conferences at Oxford, Harvard and been a guest at world conferences such as the World Economic Forum 2018" means that he is definitely more noteworthy than an average YouTuber. Then with appearances in movies and TV shows, his clothing line, and his published works added on to that, it seems pretty conclusive that his article should be kept.

- Comment/question: Our article says that this college is affiliated to Periyar University, citing the website of that institution as a source. But the only "Loyola College" listed there is "Loyola College of Arts & Science (Co.Ed); Oilpatty Village, Rasipuram (TK)". Is this the same college? I notice that the Oilpatty college is not listed here. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:07, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

Delete unless any independent reliable source can be found, in any language, to confirm the affiliation to Periyar University (in which case a redirect would be appropriate). I can find no indication of independent notability – 0 hits on GNews, 2 passing mentions on GBooks. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 20:58, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Periyar University, strike 'delete' !vote, as the evidence of the affiliation I asked for has now been found (I could perhaps even have found it myself). There's still nothing to say about the school, so no reason to have an article on it. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:49, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

- Based on what policy? The Banner talk 15:28, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- That's good news, Necrothesp! What reliable independent source have you found that verifies that status? Would you like to either mention it here or add it to the article? Because at the moment there's no verification of that at all; I don't even see any unverified claim that it awards degrees. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 16:20, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- Periyar University lists it as an affiliated college. The fact this Loyola College is the same one, despite not listed here as being in Mettala, is confirmed by the address on its own website. Given it is an affiliated college of an accredited university, I think we can accept the information on its own website (such as the fact it awards degrees) as reliable. Affiliated colleges in India are independent institutions; they are not actually part of the universities to which they are affiliated, so separate articles are more appropriate than redirects. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:59, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- Where do you see it on that list, Necrothesp? I see only one Loyola College, number 95 on the list, and nothing to suggest that it is the same institution – please see my question about this higher up the page. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:26, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- Please read my post in full. The address listed for that Loyola College and the address on the Loyola College, Mettala, website are the same!

- Keep the Hindu Times article cited notes the college and one of its leaders is quoted. Verifiable colleges such as this one are deemed notable. Should be renamed Loyola College of Arts & Science (Mettala, India). FloridaArmy (talk) 12:11, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- That article in the Hindu Times is just a passing mention. The article is about the doctoral thesis of a man who just works at Loyola College, it is not about the College itself. And please, read WP:RS, as all other sources are related or social media. The Banner talk 12:42, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- Comment - this one is tricky. It didn't help that the URL was wrong, but I fixed it. I'm not familiar enough about Wikipedia's college notability policy, but if this were a standalone business, it would fail WP:GNG and be a delete. If consensus is that it's notable just for existing, than it's a keep. I do see several teachers and graduates promoting their attendance at the school, so its existence shouldn't be in question.

- Keep: there are similar articles for the previous years and this article has a similar level of sourcing. Most if not all of the content appears to be sourced - I added a ref, found by following a link in one of those already there, which sources the contestants names, heights, ages. PamD 09:50, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
- Looking at a couple of examples of the article's predecessors I would say they are actually significantly less notable (in terms of suitable sources, not "worthy topic") than this one, and WP:OTHER is in place. However with the added ref, most of the content is at least referenced in some fashion (though reading the (albeit translated) sources, some hardly come up as a calm, neutral consideration). In any case, I'm now neutral on this particular article - you have to (should be!) confident to vote delete, and I no longer think that is the case. Nosebagbear (talk) 10:04, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

- Keep. This is a part of a series of articles on the annual events and there seems little reason to single this one out to the exclusion of the others. And this notion of having a series of "annual" articles is well accepted by the Wikipedia community -- it is used with plenty of other systems of organized competition. As just a very few examples, we have Ecuador at the 1968 Summer Olympics, Miss America 1967, and Ghana at the 1962 British Empire and Commonwealth Games. These three articles have two things in common -- they have levels of sourcing that are lower than that found in the instant article, and they will never be deleted. Why not? Because the Wikipedia community accepts the notion of a series of "annual" articles on notable competitions. And aside from the general acceptance of these types of articles, their existence can be justified under WP:SPINOUT, which doesn't require a separate determination of notability. So long as the material in the article is verified, the article itself is acceptable. NewYorkActuary (talk) 15:50, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

- Keep I can see there are already articles for the previous years of Miss World Ecuador, and I don't see the advantage of deleting or redirecting this one. However, I improved the sourcing of the article by adding additional info and citations with significant coverage of the event. This article now passes WP:GNG for "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Additionally, it makes sense to separate each event by year, as there is too much information about each year to keep them in one giant ever-expanding article for Miss World Ecuador.

comment It says a lot that he comes up in more or less trivial coverage in almost any story about the history of Indian basketball, including talking about a referee throwing him out of a game 35 years earlier. [8]. Not everything was on the internet in the 70s, but he's one of two players who come up in any material on Indian basketball in that time period.Jacona (talk) 17:54, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

- Comment - the first AfD for this article was Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2017 Clovis library shooting. ansh666 20:38, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - at the time of the first AfD being submitted, it was legitimate, but the coverage this received is certainly sufficient - multiple high quality sources at a national level. The key consideration is WP:EVENTCRIT, point 1: the article is not likely to have "enduring historical significance" and quite possibly lacks "significant lasting effect" (though I would say it does meet WP:GNG). However, point 2 is met - significant USA-wide coverage.
- With this clashing set-up, the actual relevant bit is in WP:GEOSCOPE "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 now we end up in the judgement call - does a mass-shooting, though small in that category, have a lasting impact (on a sufficient geographical scope) to satisfy both grounds sufficiently?
- WP:PERSISTENCE is satisfied, with articles on the progression of his trial, diagnosis and treatment, e.g. [Evaluation], [Treatment Refused]. It is also referred to as the reference point in other local gun-related/threat-related articles, which indicates some degree of lasting psyche impact if linking current events to that actually has any relevance.
- Therefore, I feel that coverage diversity and breadth is satisfied, and duration is sufficiently satisfied (albeit primarily with sources not yet added to the article) to encourage a keep. Nosebagbear (talk) 09:00, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
- Keep, I suspect by SNOW. International news item when it broke. A cursory looks at coverage shows it still is a fairly high profile news item (during the trial) which coverage by the news wires (e.g. AP). Definitely meets NCRIME / SIGCOV.Icewhiz (talk) 13:18, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
- Coverage of trials is routine. It is no indicator of real ongoing interest.TheLongTone (talk) 13:32, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
- If you nominated this in 2019 or 2020 - you might have a point if there were no WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE (for a sufficient period of time). As it is - there is continuous coverage from August 2017 to April 2018 - every month you have an item, and some of it is national or international - placing us in a WP:RAPIDish situation of assessing WP:BALL of future coverage. There no reason to think this won't be notable going forward - it was quite a notorious incident - mass shootings by teenagers against un-invovled random victims often are notable - regardless of the bodycount.Icewhiz (talk) 13:40, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

- Keep - coverage continues even as of 11 days ago. A self-evident case of WP:GNG. Note the nominator is the same for both the previously failed AfD and this AfD. XavierItzm (talk) 16:51, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

I fully intend to nominate this a third time if this nom fails.TheLongTone (talk) 10:45, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
- The "routine" coverage claim is discussed in WP:NOTNEWS. This claim for deletion is based on a misreading of policy. The policy is aimed against entertainment news. Specifically, WP:NOTNEWS reads "routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia." This case on the contrary is a notable crime. Besides, this is clearly not "routine news reporting" on "announcements, sports, or celebrities". This is routine news reporting a major crime and therefore WP:NOTNEWS does not apply. I can only recommend re-reading the WP:NOTNEWS policy. Finally, the unsound arguments in favor of NOTNEWS are trumped by WP:NCRIME, which reads «Articles about criminal acts, particularly those that fall within the category of "breaking news", are frequently the subject of deletion discussions. As with other events, media coverage can confer notability on a high-profile criminal act», so keeping this article ought to be adjudicated by default, as clearly the coverage has been extensive and continues to date.XavierItzm (talk) 13:53, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

- Keep -Though mass shootings are becoming common in the USA of today, it is yet notable. C. W. Gilmore (talk) 16:55, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:EVENTCRIT, all heinous crimes have local coverage of the proceedings of criminal trials about them and that type of coverage (such as on a New Mexico TV station) is WP:MILL and doesn't automatically mean that GNG is met. Beyond that, we have national coverage in the immediate aftermath of the shooting ([9] [10]), and nothing else. All murders are tragic, but not all are notable. power~enwiki (π, ν) 18:07, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- Except that, at the moment, a wave of activism that is bringing school shootings into the headlines in a manner that is anything but run-of-the-mill. U.S. News & World Report, 20 April 2018: "At New Mexico State Capitol, Students Plead for Gun Safety", "New Mexico was shaken by a December shooting at Aztec High School that killed two students. An August 2017 shooting at a public library in Clovis left two dead and four wounded."] Passes WP:NCRIME.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:07, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- I'm leaning more towards keep as it appears to exceed WP:NOTNEWS and WP:EVENTCRIT. However, how does the above USN&WR article assist? There is just a brief mention of the crime in that article, no depth of coverage regarding the abhorrent event at all. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 21:52, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
- It is part of a series of incidents that have driven a nationwide political clamor for reform this spring, and a nationwide concern about the potential for copycat shootings by teens. (note that "According to the report, Nathaniel Jouett admitted to police that he was the shooter inside the library, and said he took the guns from his dad’s safe. He went on to say that he “had planned the attack for a while and wanted to shoot the school up and then kill himself,” .... he “ended up at the library because he was angry and was either going to kill himself, or a bunch of people.” It has returned to the news cycle in improbable ways: New Mexico student arrested in high school shooting threat; photo caption led to calls to Burlington police], that's Burlington, North Carolina where, "police said it received multiple calls from citizens Sunday regarding the post the teen made, according to a police news release. The concern that these callers had was that one of the captions mentioned a "CHS" which they believed was referring to Cummings High School in Burlington." But a closer look Snapchat Threat Shuts Down High School in Missouri reveals a broader concern about the potential copycat impact, an impact that is cumulative as schools and communities nationwide (my 4-year-old's pre-K now has live-shooter drills) react to the "Numerous copycat threats (that) have also popped up around the nation". E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:54, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
- Keep it has been demonstrated that this has received both national and ongoing coverage. Therefore WP:NOTNEWS is inapplicable, and WP:EVENTCRITERIA is met. This is a notable event for which a reader is likely to seek encyclopedic information. The encyclopedia is thereby not improved by the removal of this entry. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 21:25, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Appears to fail WP:GNG with one local news source stating the announcement of the team (WP:NOTNEWS) and even lacks WP:ROUTINE game coverage.

New version of previously-deleted article, doesn't qualify for WP:G4 speedy deletion because it's substantially different than the deleted one. Unfortunately, the notability concerns raised in the previous AFD discussion haven't been addressed. There are brief reviews of tracks, primary sources (interviews), one source even describes the subject as a "future house phenom"[15]. To merit an article here, an artist can't be up-and-coming, he must have already arrived. I don't see anything in WP:MUSICBIO that suggests notability. This is probably WP:TOOSOON. ~Anachronist (talk) 14:44, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

Used exclusively in an academic context by a single author (Tadeusz Zawidzki). The definition of the term by Mameli is nonsensical, conflating learning, emotional response, and planning - subjects for which we have already many wonderful taxonomies.

The two main editors of this article are clearly identifiable as the subject. It is a PR biography. There is only one reliable independent source cited, and that article is no longer available so I can't check it. This is essentially an example of asserted notability by inheritance (literally by inheritance, he's a hereditary baronet, one of many hundreds). None of the sources cited, is independent and reliable. I think this fails WP:GNG but is a very well written advert. Guy (Help!) 13:00, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

- Delete: I don't think this passes WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO either. The issue is that although Mr. (Sir?) Reynolds has had a chart hit as a member of a musical duo, and has written and produced chart hits for other people, there doesn't seem to be anything demonstrating individual notability. I have a copy of the British Hit Singles book that was referenced in an earlier version of this article, and it refers to the chart position for the Braund Reynolds single, which I can confirm is correct, but then again anyone can confirm this on the Official Charts Company's website [16], and Mr. Reynolds doesn't inherit notability from the chart placing of the song. The claim that three separate Radio 1 DJs made it their record of the week may be true but is completely unverifiable at this point in time. He is certainly credited as co-writer, producer and/or mixer on all the records stated in the earlier version of the article, but again, that doesn't make him notable if there is no more information other than "mixed by James Reynolds".

Mid-career university professor who obtained his PhD from Walden University, where he's now a professor (of unclear rank, Walden's School of Nursing doesn't appear to have individual faculty pages). Article states that he is founding editor of the International Journal of Healthcare Polic, but the journal's website does not mention Nguh (and even if it did, this journal still has to get published, so this is not a "well-established academic journal in their subject area" as intended in WP:ACADEMIC#8). Being associate editor of the Journal of Interprofessional Education & Practice also does not meet ACADEMIC#8. Two awards are mentioned. According to its website, the "Certified Nurses Award presented by the American Nurses Credentialing Center" is given yearly to dozens of individuals, so this clearly is not a "highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level" (WP:ACADEMIC#2). Judging from the scant description on its website, the "British Council USA, Social Impact Award" is not a major award meeting ACADEMIC#2 either. Searching GScholar renders just a handful of citations to Nguh's work, so ACADEMIC#1 is also not met. There is no evidence that he meets any of the other criteria of ACADEMIC. No other independent sources were found during a Google search, meaning that WP:ANYBIO or WP:GNG are not met, either. In the absence of any evidence for notability: Delete.

As such, I feel that the article fails WP:GNG, WP:NPEOPLE and WP:NACTOR. I actually turn up more material about the 1984 video from Emu's All Live Pink Windmill Show that went viral in 2016.

- Delete - Per nom. Unnecessary. Beyond My Ken (talk) 06:33, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Comment I like Ansh666's proposal of a redirect, the present nation-based list linked is organized by decade, it would be interesting to see an alternative organization into smaller lists on a state-by-state basis. I'm counting 28 examples right now on the present list. What number would be a good minimum to set for when we should give a state a page? ScratchMarshall (talk) 07:30, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Comment These days it's actually organised by 5-year periods, which is depressing, but in any case I agree. There probably are enough to also disambiguate by State - and this could be a starting one, but if it's going to do it, then it needs to do it properly.
- If we do take that approach, then there's no fundamental reason to delete the page, even though it clearly isn't serving its purpose atm - the name etc is fine. Nosebagbear (talk) 09:44, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

- Comment: I would think a redirect to Stoneman Douglas High School shooting would make sense, at least in the short term, but List of school shootings in the United States would also get most people typing this to where they want to go, i.e., they'll scroll to the bottom to see the latest massacres that they are probably looking for.--Milowent • hasspoken 18:58, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Yosef Yitzchak Jacobson appears fairly non-notable. The only possibly notable thing is his Chaplaincy Address to the Pentagon. The problem with that however is that the only source is a local church-based news site tooting its own horn about their own rabbi. I believe this article cannot stand on its own. The only salvageable item (the chaplaincy address) if it is worth saving, should be in a family section of his brother Simon Jacobson. Jcmcc (Talk) 18:02, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
- Give this article the benefit of the doubt. I think that his being the redactor of a Yiddish journal is also notable. In any case, I would have recommended to tag this with various "Citation needed" and "More footnotes" templates, and revisit the notability question after those were resolved. My gut-feeling is that adding a few sources will resolve the notability question quickly enough. Debresser (talk) 23:40, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

In a speech hailed by one priest as the most inspiring talk since Martin Luther King Jr.

The source is in no way influenced by the rabbi, ergo it is independent. According to your logic anything any publication affiliated with Chabad writes about any Chabad rabbi would be "not independent", and the same for anything any Jewish publication wrote about any rabbi etc. This is absurd. Please also notice that there are 4 more sources in the article, and almost every statement in this short article is sourced. Debresser (talk) 21:54, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
- What don't you like about an attributed statement in the source? It doesn't say "This was the most inspiring speech etc.", because that would be bad journalism. It states a fact "There was somebody there who was so inspired that he said that etc." That is attribution and good journalism.

Advertorially-toned WP:BLP of a television personality, not well-referenced as the subject of enough reliable source coverage about him to clear WP:GNG. This has been tagged for notability and sourcing problems since 2010, but until just a few weeks ago it remained "referenced" entirely to a linkfarm of links to non-notability-assisting unreliable sources, like his own LinkedIn and videoclips of him doing his own job on a user-generated video sharing site. Then in late March two real footnotes were finally added on the occasion of him coming out as HIV+ -- but one of those two footnotes is to a blog that cannot support notability at all, and the other is to a digital news organization that would probably be acceptable as one source in a mix of solid sources, but isn't well-established enough to confer a GNG pass all by itself as an article's only non-blog source. And if his HIV status is really the only thing about him that can be sourced anywhere independent of his own self-published web presence, then that just makes him a WP:BLP1E. So maybe this is just WP:TOOSOON for a person who might collect stronger coverage in the future -- but there's not enough sourcing here now to get him over GNG, and nothing stated in the article body is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to get over GNG.

- Comment: for those who can't read Portuguese, the article basically says that Ms Klinger is one of the few female vocalists active in the death metal genre, employing the guttural vocal technique typical of the genre. She's been the vocalist for the group Mercy Killing since 2012, and since December 2017 she's also been the vocalist for Divine Pain, both Brazilian death metal bands. However, she doesn't appear to have any individual notability, and neither of her bands appears notable from initial impressions (the article for Mercy Killing is up for speedy deletion), so there's no obvious redirect target. I would think that Brazilian music sources in the Portuguese language are needed here, there's nothing in the English language. Richard3120 (talk) 02:57, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

Hazily defined subgenre of gospel music, almost entirely WP:OR, apparently containing any rock music that the anonymous article creator thinks sounds a bit like gospel, even though not a single band mentioned can be described as playing in a gospel music genre. All Saved Freak Band sing about the Gospel, but their article correctly describes them as contemporary Christian music. The only references in the article are for Spirit in the Sky, and one song does not a subgenre make, and per that article, Greenbaum was not a gospel musician. First created by an anonymous editor in February. I tried redirecting it then, but it's now back. No significant current use of the term in WP:RS online in the sense it's used here. There are a few mentions of the term in GBooks in some rock history books referring to artists like Little Richard combining gospel styles with rock & roll, but apart from that it mainly appears to be a now-unused term for Christian rock. "Rock gospel" used to have its own Grammy category, but that's since been changed to Contemporary Christian music. The Mighty Glen (talk) 01:12, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

- Redirect to Christian rock or Contemporary Christian music with protection. The content in the article looks to be WP:OR. There don't appear to be enough sources in a search even to rewrite it properly, but as it is a plausible search term, it might be worth keeping as a redirect. However, it may need protection to stop repeated wrong-headed attempts to turn it into a full article Hzh (talk) 19:28, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- I'd personally prefer redirecting to Contemporary Christian music instead of Christian rock because of the noticeably different quality. Replacing original research by a redirect to another original-research-tagged article is probably not as useful for now. That doesn't mean that the redirect can't change in the future, of course. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:02, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

- Move to Rock Gospel - The fact the Grammy for two decades awarded a prize to "Rock Gospel" is prima facie the subject exists. Guys, WP:Deletion is not cleanup, any improperly sourced content you should edit out, even if you leave the article merely a stump, but clearly deleting the page of a legitimate subject is not good. XavierItzm (talk) 17:51, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- If you check the edit history, this article has never been about the genre that was nominated for and awarded the Grammy. Wouldn't it make more sense to start that article, if it's actually a separate subgenre, distinct from Christian rock or CCM? And has Rock Gospel ever been called Gospel rock? I'm not criticising your suggestion, I simply want to learn in case I've made a mistake. Thanks, The Mighty Glen (talk) 18:16, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- Agreed that sourcing for the "Gospel Rock" term looks to be threadbare, so it probably cannot hold. Because of the significant weight of the decades-long Grammy "Rock Gospel" Award, the article should be moved to "Rock Gospel" and pared down to what its currently existing sources allow, which is probably not longer than a stump. XavierItzm (talk) 20:49, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
- No. Having an article listing the winners of the Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album is fine. But this article should NOT be merged there. "Christian rock" "Rock Gospel" and "Gospel rock" describe the same musical genre. REDIRECTing this article to the older, better article, - with selective merge - continues to make sense.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:22, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- If "Christian rock", "Rock Gospel", and "Gospel rock" are synonymous terms, there ought to be a section on the one surviving article with full WP:RS supporting evidence that these are synonyms. If you are unable to provide such WP:RS, then obviously you need a separate article for "Rock Gospel," which is such an important category that the Grammy awarded prizes to it for decades.

She played a supporting role in the historic Brown v. Board of Education decision, and her story is featured in the National Museum of African American History and Culture at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, D.C. Her experiences have been documented by the U.S. Library of Congress. This all indicates that she is a notable person (only a very small number of people are featured in the Smithsonian or documented by the Library of Congress). She passes WP:GNG for significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject: [21][22][23][24]. She is talked about at length in any biography about Thurgood, as she was extremely important to his life and decisions.[25] The fact that so much detail has been reported on her as an individual indicates she should have her own page, as opposed to just a footnote on his page. WP:NOTINHERITED says, "Individuals in close, personal relationships with famous people (including politicians) can have an independent article even if they are known solely for such a relationship, but only if they pass WP:GNG."

- Keep I've improved the article with more information and citations. Burey receives significant discussion in biographies of Thurgood Marshall, as they were married for 25 years, including the time when he presided over the historic Brown v. Board of Education case.[26][27] Burey's life portrayed in the 2017 movie Marshall (film) where Burey is played by Keesha Sharp. I believe the combination of significant discussion in books, along with being portrayed as a main character in a movie, satisfies WP:GNG. Lonehexagon (talk) 19:09, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Thurgood Marshall. The subject does not appear to be known for anything other than marrying a notable person. While it's nice she has an academic program named in her honor, it was established 60 years after her death, so she had no role in its establishment. If reliable sources only or primarily mention her in biographies of Marshall, than so should Wikipedia. --Animalparty! (talk) 07:24, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - as a black American woman of the 1950s, her role was not always publicized or published. However considering the context of the time period and how often she is referenced today, many years later, that is notable. She was an important factor not only in her husband, Thurgood Marshall's successes but also in the Brown v. Board of Education decision. Now I understand this is not a typical framing of notability, but with some more writing and citations this article will be improved. We should keep this article because of WP:NOTINHERITED - she has lots of sources, and she is notable in her own right. Jooojay (talk) 21:44, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- @Jooojay: she gets coverage only in relation to her notable husband, not in her own right. Wikipedia is not the place to right great wrongs of past lack of coverage. From this article, Mrs Marshall did nothing more than be born, go to school, marry a man, support him, have some miscarriages, and die. There are probably more verifiable but ultimately un-encyclopedic details to be gleaned from Thurgood biographies (her favorite color? What she wore on her first date with Thurgood?) but Wikipedia would be the worse for including such sentimental fluff. She played an important part of Thurgood's life, and so she should be mentioned in Marshall's biography as appropriate. We need not, and should not, have articles of the non-notable spouses of every notable person, merely because we feel they should get more attention than history has given. --Animalparty! (talk) 22:24, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- @Animalparty: please realize that she has her own citations too. I agree that this article can be improved, but to assume her un-notable based on a stub that needs improvement seems unnecessary. Jooojay (talk) 22:34, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- Keep per substantial coverage in reliable independent sources. She was a major part of Thurgood Marshall's lifr from his college days to the historic Brown v. board of Ed. Supreme Court decision. As an nfluential figure in the life of one of the most important lawyers and jurists in U.S. history, as well as for her own work and accomplishments she is notable. Dismissive and ultimately sexist comments notwithstanding, she is an important figure in American history and was a pivotal figure in the American Civil Rights movement.
