- Keep. It's a notable topic. Here are book more references that could be added: [7] [8] [9] [10] Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:26, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- That would make a total of 7 citations. Which could be covered in an theoretical section in punk rock. Oh and 1, 3, and 4 I don’t think are reliable because they were self-published. But I could be wrong though. ~SML • TP 22:41, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Merge with Punk rock - doesn't warrant it's own article, but could work as a section. Also, self-published sources are likely primary - and we tend to not use those in Wikipedia. Kirbanzo (talk) 23:21, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep per Eastmain. Only one of the four books linked above (#4) is self-published; Invisible Publishing and ECW Press are reputable publishers. Three books is certainly enough to satisfy WP:GNG. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 23:30, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep per Eastmain and Arms & Hearts. Satisfies GNG. James500 (talk) 17:09, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Yes, this definitely needs more sourcing (and a content overhaul) than it has right now — but a lot of quality sources do exist about this. In addition to the books Eastmain linked, there's Michael Barclay, Ian A.D. Jack, and Jason Schneider's Have Not Been the Same, Liz Worth's Treat Me Like Dirt: An Oral History of Punk in Toronto and Beyond 1977-1981, Joe Keithley's I, Shithead, Ryan Edwardson's Canuck Rock: A History of Canadian Popular Music, Bob Mersereau's The History of Canadian Rock 'n' Roll, Chris Walter's Argh Fuck Kill: The Story of the Dayglo Abortions, Randy Rampage's I Survived D.O.A., Don Pyle's Trouble in the Camera Club: A Photographic Narrative of Toronto's Punk History, 1976-1980 and Geoff Pevere's biography of Teenage Head, and even that is just off the top of my head — there's certainly a lot more that could be dug up if somebody actually put some effort into a serious library search. (Did either Art Bergmann or Steven Leckie ever publish an autobiography? Is there a published bookform history of Og Records? I don't know.) And there's also metric shit-tonnes of stuff that can be dug out from Exclaim!, ChartAttack, BeatRoute and newspapers — the whole Dayglo Abortions censorship thing comes to mind as something that definitely got into the major dailies, for starters. We judge GNG on the quality and depth of the sources that can be found to improve the article with, not just the quality and depth of the sources that are already present in it at any one time, so needing improvement is not a valid deletion rationale if improvement is as readily possible as it is here.

the article is dealing with a person, who does not fullfil the relevance criteria. he seems to be a catholic priest, once with a cross-shaped wound on the forhead. i can see no additional relevance. there is just one source (one link dead). if one gets a translation of certain croatian internet pages one has to read that the catholic church has stopped the public apperances of this man. sudac has his own website , where he shows his wounds. i think, the whole thing is a typical showmanship by an eccentric. also an internet hype, using the mechanisms of this media. wikipedia should not help spreading such a show.

- Keep. See the additional references at [15]. This may be a hoax, but it's a notable hoax on the strength of the available references. If the Catholic Church has commented unfavourably on him, that belongs in the article as well. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:35, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - The article itself is not a hoax, although its subject undoubtedly is a hoaxer. He passes WP:GNG, here's just a few links to sigcov in national media [16][17][18][19][20]. The internet would definitely benefit from a cool-headed NPOV article on Sudac's antics, which ATM this admittedly isn't. Daß Wölf 01:01, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
- Weak keep -- It is perhaps unfortunate that we do not have a detailed explanation of the Church's antipathy to the subject. However that antipathy may be enough to make him notable (or perhaps notorious). Peterkingiron (talk) 15:23, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Extensive, continuous coverage by sources. One of his books sold 20,000 copies, which is apparently a lot.[21] He also claims bilocation and levitation.[22] (That doesn't make him notable, of course, but it's interesting.)

- Delete Per nomination; just an academic like anybody else. And another thing: There is not really such a thing -as stated in the article- like "Webster University in Athens, Greece" etc. According to the Greek Constitution only the Greek state-run Universities in Greece are considered to be "universities". Any other foreing faculty or similar educational establishement operating in Greek territory is functioning as privately run business, as schools of liberal arts etc., even if they have a connection with universities abroad, and style themselves commercially as "universities" (usualy as the "Athens Campus" of a foreing University, e.g. [23]; actually just a "study-abroad program", not a real university, according to the Greek law). ——Chalk19 (talk) 08:43, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- PS. As far as the "12 televised episodes of the documentary From Aristotle to Hawking, a Pissanos Production" (cf. [24]) is concerned, Pavlos/Paul Pissanos (in Greek: Παύλος Πισσάνος) is a rather peculiar or absurd "philosopher" who self-publishes his books and self-produces his TV series or DVDs. His TV show "Απόκρυφη αρμονία" (=Apocryphal Harmony; an example of a full show: [25]) was hosted in a minor, no mainstream Greek TV station, one of those of the lowest-rated channels of Greek TV. ——Chalk19 (talk) 09:08, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

WP:OR. The article creates a title which didn't exist before, creates theoretical rules for it and applies it after the fact to people from the past. There could be an article for a list of most senior woman in the HoC but not one that makes up rules for a title that didn't exist then and doesn't formally exist now. May and Corbyn praised Harman with this term but that doesn't mean it's a real thing. Also, there is nothing that could theoretically stop a woman from assuming the position that is now called "Father of the House", at which point one would expect the title to change to suit the gender. Anarcho-authoritarian (talk) 19:29, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Father of the House. I understand the sentiment the article is trying to get across, but the term will change when a woman takes the office. If necessary, I'm sure the page could be changed to Dean of the House, as is the term in Canada. Bkissin (talk) 19:38, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robert Max Ross. As the previous deletion discussion noted, he was a repeatedly unsuccessful politician. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:41, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. The article for Robert Max Ross was created due to the fact that his name continued to show up in news searches while this author was researching the election of Otto Passman. The article was written to serve as a reference for fellow researchers who are researching the resurgence of the Republican party across the deep south and more specifically, in Louisiana. This author agrees with Robert McClenon in that Ross' defeats do not meet the requirement of notoriety, nor does the fact that he was an unsuccessful perennial candidate. This article's relevance and ultimate purpose is to provide a record of Ross' public involvement as a candidate on the forefront of the shift in support for the Republican movement at a time when it was virtually non-existent. Following the election of 1876, Republicans did not win one statewide election in Louisiana until the election of Dave Treen in 1979, a span of more than 100 years (Political party strength in Louisiana.) As a candidate against Dave Treen in 1972 and again in 1983, Ross has a unique distinction in that he is a candidate receiving much attention and press, in the quest for the first Republican victory in more than a century, and in the 1983 election, Ross was of particular concern in that his candidacy further complicated Treen's re-election due to the new jungle primary, an election Treen did ultimately lose. Additionally, Ross holds distinction for being the only other candidate other than Treen to have participated in a Republican closed primary in a Louisiana gubernatorial election.[1] Prior to the Treen and Ross candidacies, Louisiana was essentially a one party state, with elections being solely decided by Democratic Primaries. Future elections would be determined by the jungle primary system. Because there were no Republican candidates in virtually any elections in Lousiana with the exception of Eisenhower on the national ticket and later Goldwater in 1964, voters were registered almost solely as Democrats in the state. In 1960, less than 1% of Louisiana voters were registered Republicans, while 98.6% were registered Democrats. By 1972, when the Republican candidate Ross first qualified to run for statewide office, the number of Republicans had only risen to 2.8% of the electorate. By 1986, which was the last year that Ross ran for statewide office, Republican registration had risen to 13.6%, bolstered in part by the election of Ronald Reagan.[2] As of August 1, 2018, Republican registration has risen to just over 30%.[3] The first Republican elected to the Louisiana State Senate during the 20th century did not occur until the election of Edwards Barham in the 1975 cycle.[4] This same cycle, Ross was also a Republican candidate in an adjacent Senate district at a time when Republican candidates across Louisiana were truly almost non-existent. In conclusion, this article should be published not because Ross was a perennial candidate, nor just because qualified for numerous election, but because he was an early and active participant in developing a two party system in Louisiana, and was an early and active participant in the pursuit of the Republican party movement in Louisiana. I was not familiar with Ross until I researched his candidacies as a result of seeing his name continually show up. A search for "Robert+Max+Ross" in Louisiana newspapers returns more than 66 press references[5] and a search of Louisiana newspapers for just "Robert+Ross" with "Republican" returns 142 results spanning 1952-1990.[6] Ross was never a candidate who qualified because he believed he could win, but rather he was a candidate because he wished to build the Republican party platform in Louisiana at a time when it did not exist.

Empty article about an empty slogan/hashtag. No independent sense whatsoever that this is a real and/or notable thing. Calton | Talk 19:18, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete the only reliable source cited (the Washington Post article) undermines the notability of the subject:
There’s little actual evidence to suggest that #WalkAway represents a mass conversion of millions — or even thousands — of Democrats to the Trump Train since Straka’s video.
Without that, then this is an article about a recent meme, and contains nothing of encyclopedic value. Red Rock Canyon (talk) 20:31, 20 August 2018 (UTC) - Delete as per the above. Jmertel23 (talk) 20:34, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:SNOW. There's zero evidence this is notable; in fact, the only reliable source in the article says otherwise. It's a made up meme without any basis in reality. Truth is still truth. We are still an encyclopedia, not a soap box. Bearian (talk) 20:55, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

Speedy Delete There's no evidence of notability to this random political talking point. People leave and join political parties all the time; that doesn't equate to a movement.Simonm223 (talk) 17:44, 21 August 2018 (UTC)- Keep - While there is definitely a question as to how extensive this “movement” actually is, There is a notable topic here... the “movement” has been discussed extensively in reliable news media sources (even if only as an example of how social media can be manipulated for political purposes). The article needs to be re-written, not deleted. Blueboar (talk) 11:28, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- ...even if only as an example of how social media can be manipulated for political purposes
- Then that would make "media manipulation" the actual topic, then, not this -- and I'd like to see some evidence for this "extensive" discussion. --Calton | Talk 13:53, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- Currently there are three sources on the article. One saying it's basically bullshit. One that is not from a reliable source (RT) and one from Yahoo which interviews the person who is credited with starting the Hashtag. There's no suggestion of WP:SUSTAINED coverage; and ephemeral Twitter drama isn't appropriate for Wikipedia. Simonm223 (talk) 13:56, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- Please explain to me how RT, the Russian propaganda wing is a reliable source. Explain to me how a Norgwegian Alt-right website is as well. Bearian (talk) 13:47, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- I think you misinterpreted what I said. I was saying that RT is definitely not a reliable source. I would also dispute the reliability of a Norwegian Alt-right website if I knew what you were mentioning. Simonm223 (talk) 13:49, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
Delete - Hashtag "movements" are a dime a dozen. No evidence that this one was more than a temporary bit of entertainment on Twitter. If it ever gains legs and is documented in reliable sources, then we could have an article. As of now, it's non-notable without enough reliable sources to support an article. — The Hand That Feeds You:Bite 16:57, 22 August 2018 (UTC)- Redirect to Russian web brigades#Troll brigade activity. Enough citations here for a mention there, but this is still just another one-off hashtag brigade. There's not enough substance to support its own article beyond "it happened." Citations can be added to expand the target article and if this somehow grows beyond yet another isolated brigade-tag, we can always undo the redirect & expand the original article. — The Hand That Feeds You:Bite 17:42, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

- Whoa. Nom and all 6 editors opining delete do so without showing evidence that they searched fo the term, some actually claim only to have looked at sourcing already on the page. Seriously guys, the quesiton at AfD is whether the topic is notable, not whether the article is comprehensive. I have added a couple of more reasonable searchbars.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:32, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- possibly keep. WP:HEY, there's actually been quite a bit of coverage in WP:RS media, especially around allegations of fake news (fake accounts of liberals who "left". But now there is also INDEPTH, yesterday's NBC News: Meet Brandon Straka, a gay former liberal encouraging others to #WalkAway from Democrats. Black Lives Matter is perhaps the most notable example of of a hashtag that made the big time, see: Category:Hashtags, and Hashtag activism. Page needs improvement.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:20, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- That's a bit like the garage band arguing that, like the Rolling Stones or the Beatles, are also a band which uses guitars and drums and therefore deserves an article. --Calton | Talk 22:42, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete The movement (if we want to call it that) is marginal. Straka himself is a wee bit more notable but I still don't see sustained and in-depth coverage. Pichpich (talk) 21:39, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - per all the improvements made since the article was nominated. Please note the nomination is in error. The nomination reads: that the subject is not a "notable thing". This is wrong. The subject meets WP:NOTE on account of the widespread coverage it has received. For example, the issue was covered in July by Arutz Sheva of Israel, by CNN, and by Australia's Morning Herald. In august, it was covered by Aftenposten, the newspaper of record of Norway. The nomination ought to be withdrawn on these grounds alone. XavierItzm (talk) 09:55, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment While I recognize the effort that went into finding new sources I still see an article that is entirely WP:RECENTISM without much indicator of sustained coverage. The notability seems to be that it was picked up by "Russian bots," and if we start putting up an article for every idiotic thing "Russian bots" amplify all day we won't have a very high quality encyclopedia anymore.

- Yesterday's INDEPTH NBC News article does show SUSTAINED.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:19, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- That, like everything not about the "Russian bots" in the article is actually a profile of Straka, not of the purported movement. See also WP:INHERITED and, for why Straka isn't notable himself WP:BLP1E Simonm223 (talk) 12:25, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- Note that Stratka redirects to this page. Also, article needs a subhead on the Russian bots; news searches bring up INDEPTH coverage of Russian promotion of this hashtag that ran in WP:RS 2-3 months ago. Once we have that material on the page, it should be added to the lede.E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:27, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment Effectively we've already accepted that Straka is not notable under WP:BLP1E - and all the coverage of this "movement" falls into two categories: 1) Profiles of Straka (irrelevant as he's not notable) or 2) It's all just Russian Bots manufacturing a movement that doesn't exist. I'd suggest a non-existent movement fronted by a non-notable minor actor is the very definition of non-notability. Simonm223 (talk) 13:40, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- I assume that the redirect occurred before the NBC national new profile?E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:37, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- WP:BLP1E would still apply even with the NBC profile. Because it's referencing the same one event in an otherwise non-notable life. Simonm223 (talk) 18:44, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
- A hashtag "political movement"! With hundreds of retweets! Delete. The NBC article could eventually be used in a bio on Straka, if anyone ever writes another profile of him. --JBL (talk) 20:33, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

Simonm223 (talk) 01:10, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

- Reiterating that I think the subsection and link E.M. Gregory created is sufficient at this time and this entry should be deleted. I took a stab at revising to see what could be verifiably summarized from reliable sources; there's probably still more to cut and one paragraph fully covers it. If there's sustained coverage, we can revisit but for now it is far TOOSOON for wikinotability; the entry itself says it's not clear whether this anything more than, as JBL puts it, a bunch of tweets. In the limited extent to which tweet activity could be encyclopedic content, E.M. Gregory has found a place to cover it within a topic that has notability.

- Proposal, We could redirect page to #Walkaway, then redirect #Walkaway to Web brigades#Troll brigade activity.E.M.Gregory (talk) 01:05, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
- I do see the reasoning for having some search term direct there, but I still don't believe it's justified to put the Wikipedia imprimatur on "Walkaway (political movement)" in any form, and think it should be deleted (if it's recreated repeatedly, it can be salted). And then I'm not sure what I do think would be an appropriate alternative. "Walkaway (hashtag)" or "Walkaway (meme)" feel overly anodyne. What about just listing the subsection link you made at the Walk Away dab page? That would give space for a little more explanation than a title alone. But folks just looking through the search results for it also seems like an acceptable outcome to me. Innisfree987 (talk) 03:11, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

I was tempted to A7/G3 this as it's clearly largely fabricated. I can't find coverage of Saltojanes and I can't find any verification he has held a guiness record. Fails GNG and possibly V. The only piece I can find about this supposed record is from Forbes, which we've learned is 50/50 chance of being usable depending what it is and in this case, appears to just be a freelancer writing about it.

The claims of notability here are referenced to primary sources, not reliable ones — and (purportedly) holding a Guinness world record is not an automatic inclusion freebie that exempts a person from still having to clear WP:GNG on proper reliable sources (especially since as near as I can tell, he was one participant in a troupe which achieved the record collectively, not a solo performer who got singled out for the distinction as an individual.)

This does not meet notability requirements of WP:NALBUMS: it was a limited edition promotional album from 1990, with short clips (mostly 30 to 60 seconds) of interviews to play on the radio. It barely receives an entry in group biographies/discographies; there is nothing written about it, so its WP article will not be more than a track and personnel listing (its AllMusic article only has a track listing).[26] The FL Led Zeppelin discography doesn't include it. It's been tagged unsourced since 12/2009 and was created and mostly edited by since banned sockpuppets. Ojorojo (talk) 16:45, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

- Delete - I have obsessive geek knowledge of Led Zep history, and can say with confidence that this record is not notable as a stand-alone item, and is just a minor promotional curiosity. The nominator is correct on how it never received coverage as an album in its own right. It is already mentioned at the associated Led Zeppelin Boxed Set and that is enough. Even for such a well-known band, items like this still have to get past the WP:EXIST standard. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 17:54, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
- This began as a redirect to Led Zeppelin Boxed Set, but was reverted.
Maybe a sentence or two could be added to that article and have this redirect there.[see my comment below] Since discographies by definition are "a descriptive catalog of musical recordings", an interview album doesn't fit there. —Ojorojo (talk) 18:42, 21 August 2018 (UTC)- That seems like a good plan to me, but if a redirect was reverted before then it will probably happen again. If "redirect" is the outcome of this discussion, admins should do the WP:SALT thing to prevent more reversions. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:06, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
- I reverted the redirect because it was pointing to the wrong album, Profiled was part of the Led Zeppelin Remasters release. Also, the redirect resulted in the Led Zeppelin Boxed Set redirecting back to itself (in the chronology section). So, I would ask, if you do delete or re-direct this page, please fix the chronology links on the albums that precede it and follow it. Robman94 (talk) 03:51, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- Note that a redirect can be pointed somewhere else without reverting it. The redirection instruction page can be tough to find, but once you find it, it can be edited like anything else. Here is a current example: [27] ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:29, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- This began as a redirect to Led Zeppelin Boxed Set, but was reverted.
- Delete – Both the Led Zeppelin Boxed Set and Remastered articles indicate that Profiled was first released on Boxed Set. However, since the references are unclear, it is not verifiable which album it was released with. So the article is best just deleted and then it may be unlinked in both articles and the chronologies. —Ojorojo (talk) 15:49, 22 August 2018 (UTC)

I originally created the first version of this page last year, but it was deleted at AFD as non-notable. I recently PRODded this particular page initially by accident because I didn't realize that, as this page has been to AFD before, PRODding is not an option. I previously tagged this reincarnation of this article for speedy deletion under WP:G4, but someone else removed that template. I think that this page should be deleted (as it has been several times already) because Jaiden is not notable, either as a person herself or for this channel. Coverage in reliable sources, while it does exist, is limited to passing mentions that do not convey nearly enough in-depth coverage to allow this person/channel to meet WP:BIO or any other notability guidelines.

- Weak Keep. I was the one who removed the CSD tag. I do agree that the article was moved to mainspace too soon, but I've tried to improve the sourcing of the article since then. Admittedly, coverage in reliable sources is still sparse, but she's a prominent YouTube animator who appeared in YouTube Rewind and frequently collaborates with other notable YouTube creators, so I think she's at least somewhat notable. I found some more sources that discuss her in slightly more detail, but I'm a bit unsure about the reliability: [28] [29] [30] [31] Ahiijny (talk) 02:26, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

- Delete and salt A search turned up no RS at all in GNews or GBooks. The sources given in the article can be analyzed as follows:
- First up is an article form Flourish. Flourish is a PR Marketing agency, not a journalism outfit. Check their about page, where it says "Everything you say and do as a brand or business is PR." So no RS sources so far.
- second source given in their Youtube page. This is ok for non-controversial claims, but not for establishing notability. SO no RS sources yet.
- An article on Heavy that only has this to say about Jaiden: "They were especially excited to see their favorite creators featured in the video, including notable animators on YouTube who were previously not featured in the annual video like Jaiden Animations and Rebecca Parham." Ok tally so far: one sentence of RS in a publication that I mostly see publishing articles like "Five fast facts you need to know about -insert name of latest murderer-".
- A short blog-type post from Mental Music, which is a teen podcast on music topics. All we have thus far is the one sentence above from Heavy.
- an Article on Tubefilter, which comments on Youtube channels. Jaiden gets a mention at the end of one sentence.
Based on the five "refs" used in the article, there is no RS to support notability. I see other refs provided further up in this Afd, which aren't good either. And remember, human beings cannot live without at least some SALT each day. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 06:26, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Per related discussions (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Iran at the 2006 FIFA World Cup (2nd nomination)). This is a WP:CONTENTFORK of 1966 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA), 1966 FIFA World Cup squads, and 1966 FIFA World Cup Group 3. There is no prose to make the argument that this was a particularly remarkable tournament for Hungary, because it wasn't. You'll see on Hungary national football team that it shares a paragraph with Euro 1964, such is the normality of Hungary reaching the quarter-finals.
There would be an argument for Hungary at the 1954 FIFA World Cup, as that Magical Magyars team is mentioned in just about every print book about the history of football, and some historians believe that the shock defeat to West Germany in the final led to civil disobedience and eventually the 1956 uprising. But the 1966 team, no lore and memories at all.
As I've said before, there are pages for countries at each Olympics, even Marshall Islands at the 2016 Summer Olympics, but even for the Marshall Islands that is an overview to cover three different sports – there is no Marshall Islands in Weightlifting at the 2016 Summer Olympics, for example.

Not mentioned in any reliable sources, only on websites like spotify and last-fm, and fora, to describe one or two albums. Seems to have been coined for some 2016 youtube video? Not a genre that has received attention as required by our notability guidelines. Fram (talk) 14:53, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

- Delete. Looking around for more information on this, I mostly found the music of one Sister Irene O'Connor-- for the most part, it's people posting her works to Reddit [32] and captioning the genre as "Catholic psychedelic synth folk". I would propose just making this into an article on Irene O'Connor, but I don't think that she meets notability standards either (despite one article [33] in the Irish Times).

I'd be grateful if reviewers could consider this, and perhaps the linked articles on his discography. The article has been largely created by an editor with, what appears to be, a very direct but undeclared COI. They have existed in this state for some years. They don't have inline sourcing and would appear to be promotional. I suppose the first question is, does the subject meet our Music Notability criteria? If he doesn't, the answer's probably pretty easy. If he does, then the question as to what to do about the COI remains. I raised the issue at the COI noticeboard and the suggestion was to "stubify", but others appear not to favour this approach. Would really appreciate advice. I've let the author know.

- Mr. Tarquin has won two Daytime Emmy Awards, in 2003 [36] and in 2005 [37] (page 4), for the music on All My Children. If these awards have the same status as the main Emmy Awards, then along with the AllMusic biography [38] and articles like this in Vintage Guitar [39] this looks like a straight keep according to criteria 1, 8 and 10 of WP:MUSICBIO. His album articles need looking at though – not sure any of them pass WP:NALBUM. Richard3120 (talk) 19:41, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
Automatickeep. Subject is winner and nominee of major awards and has featured in independent sources of good standing. I have done some housekeeping to the article (structured the article, removed puffy statements, added sections, general cleanup and punctuation). With time and contribution this could evolve.--Tabletop123 (talk) 23:54, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
- For the two Emmy awards his name is listed among a dozen or so of contributing composers for the entire TV season, all working under teams of musical directors. It's his good fortune to have been on the winning team, but he doesn't get singled out for significance (that is recognition that is given to the overall Music Supervisor and various Musical Directors). It looks good on a resume, I suppose, but much like those countless regional Emmys often touted by recipients, it's not the same as what we all usually associate with as being an Emmy Winner. Certainly not "marquee level." I'm refraining for ivoting for now, however, as 31 references are asking too much of my time to investigate, but at a glance most are the usual self-download, user submitted sites, although as mentioned above there may be a few good ones that add up worthy of a keep vote. But, yeah, cleaning up the reference clutter will help. ShelbyMarion (talk) 00:11, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete: Notability not established, clearly created by the subject himself and maintained as such along with several album articles. I've removed sources that were either dead links, links to his own website, or links to product pages. What is left appears to be a mix of blogs and PR content. WP:NMUSIC talks about winners of music awards; being listed in a large group for an Emmy isn't the same thing. Melcous (talk) 00:56, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

- Keep Multiple Emmy awards and nominations should easily satisfy WP:ANYBIO, enough coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. Hzh (talk) 14:03, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete: At first sight the Emmys appear to signify a keep but on inspection it becomes apparent that the daytime emmys do not enjoy the same respect as the main awards and he was one of a dozen recipients in that category. I suspect if anyone else had created his page other than himself (and they were otherwise notable) they would not have chosen to mention these awards Lyndaship (talk) 15:17, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
- Weak Delete I emphatically disagree there is such a thing as an “automatic” keep based on a rote checking off of bullet point criteria. The whole reason of Afd discussions is to debate how a subject meets criteria after editors have clicked on links to sources and verified the validity of claims, and research the deeper context behind references. As pointed out above, the Emmy’s are a bit of a red herring. Because several hundreds of these awards are cumulatively given out each year the TV academy has designated the Primetime Emmys as the major awards which equate to something like an Oscar or a Tony (I hesitate to include Grammy because those, too, are not equal in merit). Among the Daytime Emmys are several that could also be considered marquee. But here in one of the lesser recognized categories we have “All My Children” routinely being nominated (and at times winning) in a category contested by a very narrow pool of "Daytime Drama" candidates (in the 2000’s there were only around a half dozen Soap Operas left) Anyone who worked over the entire season is included with the award. It's really the luck of the assignment. He has also won ASCAP awards (not mentioned in the article) but these, too, are numerous and misleading the way the Emmys are. Otherwise, this subject appears to be a solid professional, making “musical pool” contributions to many projects/shows doing session work and composing, and releasing several CD’s on both small labels and his own. But a significant number of reliable, independent sources to indicate that this subject stands out are missing, just mostly niche industry “inside baseball” stuff and self-authored material. The AllMusic profile in particular seems suspect; over the years (since AllMusic acquisition by the Rovi database) the site has relied on less editorial oversight for its content, and the entry here, like this wiki article, seems more promotional and also suspiciously COI. But I give this a “weak delete” based on the Vintage Guitar article being a decent source, but it’s the only one. I could change my vote with more like it, though. ShelbyMarion (talk) 05:45, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep A single Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, or Tony should be sufficient to earn a Wikipedia page. Same for a Nobel, Pulitzer, etc. While the delete votes have made a good case for minimizing the accomplishments of such a prestigious award, I respectfully disagree and submit that these folks deserve to have at least a brief history available for Wikipedia users to enjoy.

- Delete. This reads like an advertisement (Brian Tarquin is an American multi Emmy award winning...), and I agree with the argument that being part of a big group award is meaningless. To be honest, this article is so badly referenced, it's difficult to evaluate it properly. For example, the statement, Three Emmy Awards for Outstanding Achievement in Music Direction and Composition for a Drama Series. has no reference. How can somebody go look up the awards he won if they're not specifically listed here? Also, citations such as, "Archived copy". Archived from the original on 2012-10-24. Retrieved 2013-05-10. make it impossible to make any judgement about the source without clicking through (and waiting for the archiving service to grovel its way to producing a page). -- RoySmith (talk) 13:06, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

- Thanks for the rewrite. A definite improvement to help editors more fairly judge the article. My "weak delete" vote from August 4 remains unchanged.

- Delete doesn't make the grade as far as notability goes the sources are too weak. The awards section is particularly telling, it contains claims that are only sourced to himself with the exception of the daytime Emmy joint awards, notably the best album and best book award which is a paid for award ($69 to enter one of the 100 or so categories). The claims to having sold 150,000 albums are unsourced, most of the charts info is self sourced and mostly non included in WP:Record charts. An autobiographical article surrounded by a walled garden of articles also created by the same user that will all need looking at. Over 10 years of COI and soapbox editing that has gone under the radar. Dom from Paris (talk) 23:14, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

leaning keepbut suggested redirect is definitely wrong. Most usages of "received view" follow that given in the article, which is not the same thing as the positivist notion. It is rather pointless to say that references to the received view on a topic in a field don't mean anything, which is in essence what the redirect implies.

- @TenPoundHammer: I said "leaning" because I'm finding a lot of uses of the phrase that match what the article says.

- Redirect to conventional wisdom, which is roughly what the term means in plain language. I can't find any epistemologists specifically looking received views as a WP:BROADCONCEPT. The process by which views gain consensus and start seeming obvious and being passed down as received is of course the primary focus of sociology of the history of science, but that's pretty vague; if we had an article on scientific closure mechanisms in Pinch & Bijker's classic sense [41], I might argue for a redirect there, but we don't. I don't think received view of theories is appropriate; there are (classically) received views for all kinds of fields and philosophical questions, and that just happens to be the one for the question, "what is a scientific theory?"

The result was redirect to Cubicle 7. There is consensus for a redirect to the top of the Cubicle 7 article. With regards to merging, it can be discussed on the talk page of the Cubicle 7 article, after the AfD nomination of Cubicle 7 is closed, so that merge-work in vain is avoided. Of course, if the merge happens, attribution will have to be respected during the process. (non-admin closure) wumbolo ^^^ 12:05, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

- Chet, I am not trying to bribe your !vote. The move to Merge to Cubicle 7 began in the Doctor Who: The Card Game discussion, and in that one you !voted to Merge, even though you are still arguing for a delete in the presumptive Merge target. I think that is an example of GAMING in itself, and have no interest in !voting to merge to an article that is then deleted. You and the closer here can safely assume that, even if you don't drop the stick, as long as Cubicle 7 survives AfD (and it would be a travesty if it didn't, given the available evidence), I would be happy with the merge.

Advertorially toned article about a film, not properly sourced as passing WP:NFILM.

- Keep. I added some references, but they required some digging to find, and I am grateful that my local public library subscribes to a number of useful databases. L'Actualité is a well-known and reliable French-language newsmagazine, but the reference that Google Books offered me a snippet of isn't available through the magazine's website, probably because it's so old. The awards from Banff were confirmed with two newspapers in British Columbia accessed via ProQuest through my library. The Video Librarian review at https://www.videolibrarian.com/reviews/asiemut/ is behind a paywall. The best reference is the story in La Presse. It's hard to find good references for a low-budget French-language documentary film from 2006, but I think I've done it. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 08:03, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

- Redirect to Primary (LDS Church). Search finds no significant coverage in multiple, reliable, independent sources. Church sources (Church News, Ensign, lds.org, etc) are not independent per WP:IIS and therefore not usable for establishing notability. Above !vote to keep only added another non-independent LDS source with a double conflict of interest as a student newspaper covering an alumna.

- Weak Keep Exhibition reviews in Artforum are usually a good indication of notability ( for example, [46]), and inclusion in the 2005 Venice Biennale is almost a guarantee that the subject is notable, but is not applicable to off-site projects that take place during the Biennale. Vexations (talk) 21:39, 5 August 2018 (UTC)
- Weak Keep there are some articles but the in-depth coverage is fairly thin. Some of the activities mentioned above do portend notability though. Also, if I am not mistaken, AFD is not a forum for discussion of redirects, as that can be done on the talk page or at RFD.198.58.175.190 (talk) 04:26, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment Artforum review is good, but to stay consistent with other decisions here it may or may not be enough in itself. I had no success verifying the 2005 Venice Biennale. The VB is such a diffuse event, with many many people putting on their own unofficial shows, I'm a little trepidatious of accepting it at face value. I also note the preponderance of COI edits in the article history, which gives me pause. AfD does sometimes end in a redirect, but I diametrically oppose a redirect to John Maus on Gender Gap principles merely because the two happen to be (or have been?[47]) married in 2017 (though have never collaborated on any work).--Theredproject (talk) 14:58, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

The result was no consensus. There's good agreement that this article needs a lot of editing. Perhaps major trimming, and/or refactoring with related articles. Possibly WP:TNT applies. There is, however, no consensus to delete it. The number of pageviews is not a factor in determining notability.

- Keep - This area obviously needs a good editor. There are three distinct concepts here: borrowing from other composers, borrowing from other genres, and borrowing from other cultures. IMHO, the last topic belongs in a non-existent cultural borrowing article, but unfortunately this is a redirect to cultural appropriation which I might characterize as a WP:POVFORK. Borrowing from other composers seems like a plausibly notable topic, but I'm out of my expertise to say for sure. The solution is editing, not deletion until someone demonstrates they're going to write something better. Daask (talk) 19:14, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
- Weak Keep – Yes, this article needs some serious reshaping, but I think the subject is notable enough and researched enough (never fails to hit 15 views daily, occasionally gets near 60) that it should be kept.

- You don't seem to know when "snow keep" applies. Two people arguing for deletion, and two (including the article creator) for keeping, in no way resembles a "snow keep" decision. The subject doesn't have the lasting evidence of notability needed for an enwiki article. Deletion until such evidence appears, or draftifying until this becomes clear, are perfectly acceptable actions. Note that WP:EVENT and its subsections are a guideline, while WP:NOTNEWS is a policy. "Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events. While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion." Fram (talk) 16:16, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- I agree that a lack of knowing whether or not there will be lasting effects is not in and of itself an indication of non-notability. However, until a presence of lasting effects and enduring notability is shown to be the case, it is WP:TOOSOON for an article. Jmertel23 (talk) 16:27, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- @Jmertel23: It's August and it ain't snowing. However, for articles on recent events -- WP:RAPID is the appropriate policy for articles that have very wide news coverage. In this case - we have international coverage (really international - multi-lingual coverage - thousands of separate news items all over the world) over two weeks - since the event and through today. What we don't know is whether there will be a lasting impact and continued coverage - thought it is quite possible that there will be. To assess lasting/continued coverage requires a WP:BALL - and hence per WP:RAPID we retain the article and possibly re-assess in a few months.Icewhiz (talk) 16:34, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Yes, but as WP:RAPID suggests, the retention could be done in draftspace until the notability is clearer. Jmertel23 (talk) 16:41, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

- Merge or Redirect rather than delete. This person appears to have ruled the same state at precisely the same time as Bagha Qaghan, according to Göktürk family tree. I wonder if this name is what the Chinese called him, or something like that. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:41, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment The name given in Chinese is 鞅素特勤 (Yangsu Tegin), possibly the father of Niri Qaghan according of Chinese Wiki, also supposedly son of Muqan Qaghan (which is not as given in Göktürk family tree). The claim that he founded cities is dubious (villages founded by Shiri-Kishvar according to source, are they the same person?). It is rather messy, and the sources given doesn't help, so it may need the attention of an expert. The creator of the article has been busy changing articles on Turkic history, he might have to explain. Hzh (talk) 08:24, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- Just adding that there is a passage in Suishu 大邏便爲處羅侯所執,其國立鞅素特勤之子,是爲泥利可汗 [51], mentioning Apa Qaghan , Chuluohou 處羅侯 (who may have been Bagha Qaghan), Yangsu Tegin, and Niri Qaghan. I'm not sure if I'm parsing it correctly, but it seems to suggest that Chuluohou (Bagha Qaghan) and Yangsu Tegin are different people. Hzh (talk) 11:54, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment His listed predecessor was ruler of the khaganate at the time of a civil war. There may be issues under him of disputed rule in even specific locations such as Bukara. However, if this is the fact, we need to find sources to clearly indicate this.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:50, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep I have removed the content that was not properly sourced. I have also removed details that suggest similarity to Bagha Qaghan, given that the name Yangsu Tegin comes from Chinese history, and Suishu which is an important source of Turkic history of this period does not indicate Yangsu Tegin and Bagha Qaghan to be the same person. The Russian Wiki suggests that Yangsu Tegin may be the same as Sawa of Persian sources, although that is not the traditional identification. Bagha Qaghan is normally identified with Sawa, and Bagha Qaghan's details were added to this article, which may be OR or UNDUE whereby a minor viewpoint is taken to be fact. Other edits by the creator of the article may need to be examined. Hzh (talk) 10:31, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep Yangsu Tegin may or may not be the same as Sawa of Persian sources, however I don't see the reason why Bagha should be identified with Sawa? Bagha was a son of Issig, while Yangsu was a grandson of Muqan - a rival line - as we know from Niri Qaghan statue inscriptions. Apa - son of Muqan was a claimant to the throne of Turkic khaganate. So why Bagha (莫何可汗) would be fighting a war in Sassanid front, far away from his base in Mongolia? Apa's line would be much more closer to Sassanid border. Moreover, please see Suishu 51 - Bagha Qaghan captures Apa and Zhangsun Sheng (father of Empress Zhangsun) advises emperor to spare Apa. You may look at Zhangsun Sheng biographies too. Therefore Bagha and Yangsu can't be same person. Just because we have relatively lesser information on Yangsu, does not make him less irrelevant. Cavidaga (talk) 05:44, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

Having searched the net for references, I am convinced that this person entirely fails to meet notability requirements. He has won a minor national journalism award (along with 30 others in that year alone). But that by itself is not adequate to establish notability otherwise every other winner would have Wikipedia pages. Yes he is a journalist, and his journalism can be found on the internet, but so can that of virtually every journalist in the world.

WP:NAD (Not a Dictionary) appears to be in possible violation. This page is focused on defining a neologism. In addition, this page also uses sources that are the typical suspects of "fake news" in order to define "fake news". This article topic seems both against policy and logic (probably the reason for WP:NAD). -GDP⇧ 04:26, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy keep. This is a frivolous nomination which reveals the nominator hasn't even read the article. It's a real article, not a dictionary. This should be closed immediately and the nominator's status here reconsidered, as they either are making a point violation or seriously lack the competence to know the difference between a reliable and unreliable source ("uses sources that are the typical suspects of "fake news" in order to define "fake news""). Their contribution history, statements, and political POV, all combined, indicate the latter is the case. Therefore they should be topic banned from political articles. -- BullRangifer (talk) PingMe 05:16, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- "This user"??? We have exchanged many messages. At this point you are past WP:PA! On my TP, you have said I "can't be taken seriously" because I get news from Washington Times.

- Don't misrepresent what I said elsewhere (you used far worse sources as well), and don't continually use "new user" as an excuse. You keep going around pushing all the right buttons that cause problems, for some odd reason. I guess you're just very unlucky for a newbie. You've been warned about this by many, and yet you still insist on editing controversial political articles, where you'll only get into more trouble. Try editing uncontroversial topics for a few months to get the hang of things here. Especially learn about RS. The sources used in the article are RS for the purpose.

I don't know if it makes sense for me to rescind this right away, but I'm very open to it, with a re-wording of this article's lead to appear as strictly focused on a cultural phenomenon.

I will be waiting to hear back more, but these reactions seem to be a little unwarranted.

- Strong Keep: The author is Nigerian, a third world nation that was faced with recession in 2016. The author's book is popular in the country because it played a very key role in sustaining business and market ideas among the Nigerian populace during the recession. Millions of copies of the book have been sold. With over 100,000 copies sold globally. The book is currently being used as a teaching tool for Entrepreneurial Skills in a few Nigerian higher institutions of learning. The author deserves a place in the encyclopedia as in years to come, people will want to find out what stood out for him as he helped millions of negerians survive, despite the recession.

Comment- the sources given by Stevedure don't seem to satisfy Source requirements. Three seem unreliable, of the two noted as suitable by Wumbolo NJ only has 3.5 lines about him (the rest is a summary of bits of his book, so can't actually reliably cover him in detail) and the Guardian source is both stitched together from other bits, but more importantly, doesn't actually tell us anything about the individual other than he has this high positioned book. It certainly doesn't cover him in detail. Nosebagbear (talk) 11:16, 27 August 2018 (UTC)- That's true; I have changed my vote. wumbolo ^^^ 11:23, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
- I've also added my own - I realised that while it was a comment, it also supported my own !vote
- Keep. The subject in question has received significant coverage in Reliable Sources that are independent of the subject. Most importantly, the article has verifiable facts. The Guardian is foremost newspaper in Nigeria, so as The Nation and Pulse.ng. The article is about an author of a very popular book, thus, the author is notable because of the book. I strongly support the keeping of the article. Thank you all. Stevedure (talk) 18:54, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
- @Stevedure: "significant coverage" does not mean that the subject has to be mention in many newspapers, but that every newspaper mention must be significant, i.e. "in-depth". wumbolo ^^^ 18:59, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
- 1) A book being notable does not guarantee the author being so. NAUTHOR being satisfied (which is not guaranteed) does not ensure the author being notable - WP:BASIC is also present and WP:GNG takes precedence. 2) The fact that certain sources are usually reliable does not mean they can't be disqualified if they draw from a heavily primary source (interviews as a common example) 3) Even ignoring the above, you'd need the sources to cover the book in detail as a review - Pulse, NeJ for example do not provide a significant review. Nosebagbear (talk) 19:05, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
- [59], [60] are independent sources about Vaughan. 1) The sources are verifiable and are independent 2) Guardian, The Nation, Pulse and other sources above meet WP:GNG. Also, controversy can make notability and the first three sources above provide maximum information about the Vaughan's controversies. Again, Vaughan has now become notable as a result of his work . The book, depends on the author's intellect to be excellent, hence its wide acceptability and notability. It is a property of Vaughan and could not have been that notable without references to its author. Stevedure (talk) 20:39, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
- Smashwords actually starts with "About me?" and continues in the first person. This is a spectacular slam-dunk at failing WP:INDEPENDENT. Additionally there's no editorial control and it's not hard to sign up and write on it, so it also fails independent and reliable that way. Earnbase is more interesting - it certainly satisfies Sig Cov on the author, and possibly does on the book (it discusses it in detail, but doesn't actually do much reviewing). As to whether the source is both reliable and independent I've swung both ways on each facet. I've set out my reasons for why I do not believe Guardian, pulse etc do not meet GNG. A book being made (partly) notable via references to its author does not mean the author is notable. In fact, if the author is notable because of the book, and the book is notable through references to its notable author you've created an endless cycle. Nosebagbear (talk) 20:50, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
- @Nosebagbear: thank you for being honest and objective so far. I'm glad you now accept that earnbase passes WP:GNG. I will remove the Smashwords from the references now. And for Comprehensive review, this [61] answers the question. Now I am satisfied the article is a strong keep material. Stevedure
- @Stevedure: - That is clearly not what I said - I stated I accepted Sig Cov was satisfied, which is 1 OF 3 requirements for a source to be a GNG-satisfying source. I specifically said I've swung both ways on the other facets. I did not say I had decided. Please do not give unclear statements of what I said. Nosebagbear (talk) 21:21, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

In my opinion there is a credible claim of significance enough to preclude speedy deletion of this article under the various WP:A7 criteria, and the better forum for a discussion about the notability of the subject of the article would be at WP:AFD.
The question here would appear to me is "has this very senior executive at a major multinational company received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject?"
My answer to that question is no.

- Keep - I am finding a fair bit of coverage online I would consider significant (and since his career ran through a large period of the pre-internet days, I would suspect a deeper search would reveal more, but that seems unnecessary at the moment). In particular, see this 2002 piece from Institutional Investor which evaluates his skills and comments on the effects of his business strategies, and this 2005 piece from NYT which analyzes his alliances and struggles. Weaker are this 2005 Pensions and Investments magazine article, and this 2001 interview with Euromoney that could be argued to contain some independent analysis, and this 2005 WSJ article that (after the paywall) has a short paragraph summarizing his work at Morgan Stanley.

Youtube videos are not RS, and remove that and there is nothing here other then a lot of synthasis (1976 was not in the 80's) tying up these into the acts of a serial killer. Far too ORy. Slatersteven (talk) 09:17, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

- The synthesis follows that of the "Kriminalreport Hessen" video. While the link goes to YouTube, it is a serious Hessischer Rundfunk TV production. Two older cases are presented in Aktenzeichen XY … ungelöst, also a fairly reliable source for German unsolved crime. So the video sources are not just random YouTube videos. Anyway, I am not convinced this is encyclopaedia material unless there are more RS covering this as a murder series. —Kusma (t·c) 12:30, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
- But have they been edited in any way, this is why you tube is iffy. I cannot tell?Slatersteven (talk) 12:34, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
- They are on Youtube instead of on a proper public archive because of idiotic German legislation (compare de:Depublizieren). But you are right, they could have been tampered with (although there is no reason to assume they were). —Kusma (t·c) 13:18, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
- But have they been edited in any way, this is why you tube is iffy. I cannot tell?Slatersteven (talk) 12:34, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
- I came to a similar conclusion as Kusma. Two cases where covered in an episode on 24.04.1984 and in an episode on 03.11.1989 it is revealed that they where part of a larger series after finding the sixth victim who had been missing for 6 years. I found a reference to a book of Stephan Harbort that is covering the case, but a booksearch on google is not successful in identifying the book. If the book could be identified we should have
twothree major sources apart from various press articles (which may or may not be relevant) that should satisfy WP:GNG.If not, it stands on Aktenzeichen XY alone and would not be notable.Agathoclea (talk) 14:08, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
- I am also concerned about whether or not there is OR going on regarding which cases to include. Also I am not sure the press articles are anything more then useful for establishing each individual case happened. I am not sure they say anything about serial killer. So can we have some quotes establishing this is a serial killer, and not just a series of individual episodes?Slatersteven (talk) 14:15, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
- The available "Kriminalreport Hessen" clearly speaks of a series. I do not have access to the book, but inclusion in that book only makes sense if it was considered a serial murder. The book is even mentioned in the article . The writeup on Aktenzeichen XY indicates that it was only later that it was realized to be a series. The discrepancy of 1976 not being in the 80s indicates that that case was only later linked. The bulk of the cases happened in the 80s. "Kriminalreport Hessen" sounds like 76, also being out of the area, was linked later to the other cases. I would like to know the publication date of that report, as the investigating police officer was already retired at the time of being interviewed. Agathoclea (talk) 17:17, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

Article PRODded with reason " Non-notable new journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG.". Article dePRODded with reason "any new journal produced by the APA is very likely to be notable". However, notability is not inherited. After 5 years of existence, which is plenty time, it still is not in any Clarivate Analytics database (not even the much maligned ESCI) or in Scopus. On my user page, I have some examples of journals published by major publishers and still tanked after only a few years. PROD reason therefore still stands, hence: Delete.

- Keep. I have consistently disagreed with my friend
David ERandykitty for journals published by a premier scientific society. Even the embryonic ones are notable. It's not a question of too soon, as it might be from a commercial publisher, because it is not really conceivable that any research journal from the APA will not be in ISI as soon as it has the necessary length of publication to calculate the impact factor. DGG ( talk ) 01:58, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- DGG, I think you mean me, not David E. ;-) And I indeed disagree. This journal has been around for 5 years, more than enough time to get listed in Scopus and ISI. Compare that with Draft:JAMA Cardiology, also a society journal, which was established in April 2016 and already has an IF (and a large one at that), so it is conceivable that an APA journal does not get into ISI at the first possible occasion, not even several occasions later. Archives of Scientific Psychology is several years older, so there's been more than enough time to calculate an IF. A different example is Contemporary Organic Synthesis, published by the Royal Society of Chemistry, which existed from 1994-1997 and then folded without ever making it into any major database. Being published by a reputed society is not a guarantee that a journal will become notable and that goes for Archives of Scientific Psychology. I find it very strange that after 5 years this is not included in at least Scopus, so at best, this is a case of WP:TOOSOON. --Randykitty (talk) 08:17, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

- Redirect to American Psychological Association. It got a bit of discussion (also here, and some briefer mentions [68][69][70]); I found some interesting reading, but not quite enough reliable sourcing to sustain an article. XOR'easter (talk) 23:01, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Weak keep - I'm a bit out of my comfort zone when it comes to gauging notability of academic journals, but I looked this over a little bit. There is minor coverage highlighted above, which wouldn't be enough normally for a keep. I went to American Psychological Association to see if a merge made sense, and it doesn't. The American Psychological Association#Publications section just lists the organization's numerous journals, but not this one, so I added it. Since the target is just a list of similar publications, a redirect to an unlinked entry is inconsistent with the look and feel of the existing page, and doesn't really add value. I'm on the fence, but since the article isn't intended to be promotional, I don't see it hurting, and so I'm going to throw a weak keep vote out there. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 00:06, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment. Tim, what's the use of having notability criteria if we're going to keep everything that's not promotional? I could write a neutral article about my cleaning lady, too... :-) --Randykitty (talk) 08:14, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comment. Randykitty - what makes this different is there’s a benefit however marginal in spreading academic discourse and research - in the pursuit of knowledge. And you can’t just throw up a collection of papers and call it a journal - there’s some work and thought behind this. Your cleaning lady might have some great techniques with the broom and mop, but they would not be hard for others to replicate. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 11:48, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- If you see the thousands of journals around, setting one up is not that hard either... Your !vote is not based on policy/guidelines but on WP:ILIKEIT... --Randykitty (talk) 15:08, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- Maybe, but perhaps more WP:IDONTHATEIT. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 17:57, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- That's nonsense. I don't hate it either, why would I? But we have notability criteria and this doesn't meet them. So either you put in a proposal to do away with WP:N, or you'll have to provide reasons why this meets NJournals or GNG... --Randykitty (talk) 18:03, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
