New York Streets[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Should be draftified. A single source, which the article's author says is not WP:RS because it gets other basic facts wrong, is not enough to base an article on. Found no other RS to supplement or further establish notability with GNG. A national arena league team does not have presumed notability per any SNG. There is WP:NODEADLINE - we can wait to have an article on this team until notability is more clearly established. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:59, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The press conference was this morning, a second article was just released here, meaning it now has multiple independent refs that may meet WP:GNG. I am not the author, but I published to keep the original author's contributions (because someone was bound to create it after the press conference, and I felt the proper attribution to the edit history should be preserved.). As to RS, the publisher of that article (New York Daily News) was there to show independent coverage. My comment about basic facts was they did not do their homework (stating a team in the league is in Columbus, Ohio, when it is actually in Columbus, Georgia) and is a pretty typical error for independent coverage (meaning, for once, this team was covered by a publisher that is not a blog). Otherwise I do not care if this is kept, drafted, or deleted. I was just trying to give proper creation to the editor before someone made a new page.

Draftify Clearly fails WP:GNG through a before search (only the NYDN article seems like it would pass, MAYBE one from Newsday), and if it passes GNG it probably still fails NOTNEWS. That being said, the article likely will be notable in the near future. Let's incubate it. SportingFlyer talk 05:03, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify. WP:TOOSOON at the moment, but could well pass WP:GNG in the near future. Keep the text, but get it out of mainspace for now. Narky Blert (talk) 13:16, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify currently doesn't meet requirements, but likely will in the future, so lets incubate it to allow for improvements until then --DannyS712 (talk) 10:21, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete as copyvio from at least two pages at aviation-accidents.net and aviation-safety.net. Independent search yields a blip of mainstream media coverage when the accident happened. • Gene93k (talk) 22:50, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete — Per above. Also entirely unsourced article on an unnotable event. The incident was described in an investigative report, but that is completely routine and not an indicator of notability.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 23:24, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. His Google Scholar profile shows enough citations for a clear pass of WP:PROF#C1. He is a Fellow of the American Psychological Society and of the Society of Experimental Social Psychology, which may also be enough for #C3 depending on how selective they are. And Google News shows quite a few hits for his name and apparently relating to his research. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:15, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as subject clearly passes the first criterion of WP:NACADEMIC. The editing history of the article is certainly suspect on COI grounds, and the article definitely could be more encyclopedic, but for a notable subject these are reasons for improvement, not deletion.

American Diplomacy[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article PRODded with reason "Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." Article dePRODded by SPA after adding promotional stuff (also likely copyvio). PROD reason stands, hence: delete. Randykitty (talk) 21:17, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The journal is abstracted and indexed in ProQuest Worldwide Political Science Abstracts, EBSCO databases, and Cengage/Gale. It is also in Library of Congress ISSN 1094-8120. Independently sourced and encyclopedia-based content, as noted above and edited by Randykitty, are in everyone's interest. On this basis, the proposal for deletion can be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Akebedeb (talk • contribs) 23:35, 18 December 2018 (UTC) — Akebedeb (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Comment None of the databases that you list are selective in the sense of WP:NJournals. And there is no information that is "independently sourced" or "encyclopedia-based", our only source is the journal itself. --Randykitty (talk) 23:42, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I have read the Wikipedia regulations and believe American Diplomacy meets the criteria for a notable journal in that the journal counts thousands of users and subscribers internationally (as demonstrated by Google Analytics). Other references would be to articles published in the journal vs. to the journal itself, as would generally be the case with scholarly journals. Grateful for any other guidance on this last point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RME 25 (talk • contribs) 22:00, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"thousands of users and subscribers internationally (as demonstrated by Google Analytics)" This is irrelevant, especially in the case of open access journals. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 22:04, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. There is a suggestion of a disambiguation page, but I don't see any justification for that, as the term is not mentioned in either of the suggested target articles (except in one case as a redirect to this article) and in any case is not in common use in English in either meaning.

Job ticket[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article Job ticket is about a German Pseudo-Anglicism for the phenomenon properly discussed under Free travel pass. Information about bus passes belong in that article. The only purpose of this is to highlight the German usage, but other examples of Pseudo-Anglicisms do not have their own articles - see for example Handy, which mentions the German usage only briefly as part of a disambig page. At some point in the history of the present article, the German connection was deleted, leaving the impression that this term is actually in use in the English-speaking world. As far as I can establish, it is not; and an eight-year-old request for citations has gone unanswered, which would suggest nobody else can find anything supporting the usage. I have reintroduced the German element, so that if we decide to keep it, it is at least clear what it is about. But I can't really see the point. I posted on talk page a week ago and didn't get an answer, which suggests nobody is maintaining the article. I propose deletion. --Doric Loon (talk) 17:54, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment and Delete There are plenty of references in the German version, some of which seem to be primary sources, but others are secondary. Given that the term is used in German, not English (with this meaning), it would not be an appropriate English-language Wiktionary entry. It would seem possible that this meaning could be included in an article about the English meaning of the phrase, but as that doesn't exist, and in fact the only mention of the meaning I mainly use is at the top of this page ("A "job ticket" may also be a synonym for a work order.") that wouldn't be possible. I don't know if there are guidelines on which English-language terms used in other languages with a different meaning to include in the English Wikipedia, but it seems to me likely that anyone encountering it in a German-language context would think to look for it in German-language references, and it would only be useful in the English Wikipedia if someone came across it in an English-language context, which seems unlikely. So I would agree with deleting it. RebeccaGreen (talk) 04:59, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Or disambig Although I proposed deletion, I could also imagine this being a disambig pointing to both work order and Free travel pass, provided we are allowed to stress that the latter is only German usage. --Doric Loon (talk) 17:33, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation would work well.

Purple squirrel (animal)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Compare with just-concluded AfD at WP:Articles for deletion/Blue squirrel. The earlier AfD discussion at WP:Articles for deletion/Purple squirrel determined that the human resources sense of the term should be kept and split off this list of anecdotes about possibly dyed or otherwise anomalous squirrels. While some of the sources might be considered reliable, they do little to establish existence of a natural purple squirrel. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 19:15, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Animal-related deletion discussions. Bakazaka (talk) 20:59, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete NPR is the only source I would consider reliable, the BuzzFeed article has been partially copied and pasted from Accuweather AND BuzzFeed added this disclaimer to the article "This post has not been vetted or endorsed by BuzzFeed's editorial staff. BuzzFeed Community is a place where anyone create a post."

I realize the article is not about the scientific idea that there is a purple squirrel, but about a news article talking about purple squirrel sightings. As another editor has pointed out news stories are not necessarily meant to be encyclopedia articles. Aurornisxui (talk) 21:08, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this is really "sightings of artificially dyed squirrels". These are all primary sources as well. If there's scholarly work on what causes animals to be dyed strange colors, that might be a different article with a different title, different content, and different references. In other words, nothing to keep here. power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:33, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per NOTNEWS. A list of trivial events, none individually or as a whole long-lasting or significant. Hoping someone writes an article on the history of dyeing animals though. Closest thing I could find was painted fish. Humans are odd creatures. —Hyperik ⌜talk⌟ 00:25, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

of course there is also the definitiveWhy Paint Cats: The Ethics of Feline Aesthetics along with the equally importantDancing With Cats, and Why Cats Paint: A Theory of Feline Aesthetics. Coolabahapple (talk) 13:02, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Highly promotional. References more about the company. Created by a blocked user. Fails WP:BIO. scope_creep^Talk 17:54, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral on Rubio, Weak Keep on Korey - Granted these may be promotional and/or paid, but the chief standard to follow in these discussions is WP:NOTABILITY. These two women are chief executives of what's a clearly notable business. Korey seems to have some direct coverage in reasonably high-quality RS, and both women appear to have slew of mentions in RS. Frankly I think they may pass the bar for WP:GNG.

Comment It looks as though it is verging towards keep for both of them. I will give it another day, and if somebody turns up without being canvanssed, I'll withdraw it, for keep. scope_creep^Talk 08:10, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep on both. I think there is enough significant coverage in reliable, independent sources to establish notability for both. There are quite a few non-independent sources too, which could perhaps be removed to make it clearer that they meet WP:BASIC. RebeccaGreen (talk) 15:37, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

J. Jackson (Leicestershire cricketer)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I nominated this article seven years ago, so here I am again! Jackson fails to meet WP:CRIN as none of his matches for London, the Thursday Club, or Leicester are rated as first-class. It's unlikely retrospective first-class status will be given to these matches. This leaves us with Jackson. Just his first initial and surname are known, not really enough to go on for an article.

Delete - with the lack of biographical information we have there is no prospect of ever being able to develop a full biography so fail any biographical notability potential. We're totally reliant on Haygarth's inclusion of a scorecard in his arbitrary selection of matches to support any inclusion and the matches he played in are clearly never going to be first-class - the article itself is almost deliberately misleading in its claim that they were. Should research ever determine who J Jackson was it would be no problem at all to recreate the article. Blue Square Thing (talk) 09:40, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails GNG.

All Saints Episcopal Church (Appleton, Wisconsin)[edit]

Keep Most American churches in handsome old buildings are notable and can be sourced. According to the Boston Globe, Nathan Pusey had a role in pushing the theological posture of this congregation when he was a member during his term as President of Lawrence University. The dramatic Norman tower on the 1905 building (I've posted a photo request on talk) was designed by Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge; it is an homage to/echo of the Norman tower at All Saints Church in Appleton-le-Street (where the Norman tower is the real deal.) Not saying that this is an excellent page, just that I do think that there is enough here to keep.

Page (MCC cricketer)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Biography which fails to meet WP:GNG, WP:ATHLETE or WP:NCRIC. Very limited biographical information from CricketArchive or Haygarth - essentially we know a surname existed on two scorecards and nothing else - it's not even certain that the same person played in both matches. Neither match was considered to be a first-class cricket match, despite the article's claims, and neither were played by a significant team - the MCC side was actually a Hertfordshire and MCC side; in the other match Page played for Hertfordshire; both matches were played against Hornchurch. Both matches were played over 2-days and so have no hope of ever being retrospectively classified as first-class. If there were more biographical information then it might be possible to argue that Page might be a suitable topic for a biographical article. The previous AfD, from 2008, relied upon the two matches having been first-class "aka major cricket matches". There is no evidence to suggest that either match has ever been classified as such.

The result was merge to Austrian Academy of Sciences. Note: this may end up being a selective merge. There's a suggestion that the lead and "History and significance" sections are the best bits for merging, but I'll leave that up to whoever does the actual merge. The key point is to only merge material which is adequately sourced.

Medieval Worlds[edit]

Article PRODded with reason "Non-notable relatively new journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." Article dePRODded by article creator with reason "This journal is indexed in databases which only accept high quality peer-reviewed publications and which have strict admission criteria to ensure this (ERIH Plus, DOAJ). A number of the most distinguished scholars in the field of Medieval Studies have already published articles in this journal and the journal‘s contribution to the scholarly discussion is widely recognised: https://merovingianworld.wordpress.com/2018/11/30/open-access-the-global-eminent-life". However, none of the databases listed are selective in the sense of WP:NJournals (e.g., DOAJ is only "selective" in the sense that it does not include predatory journals). That some of the authors are notable is irrelevant (WP:NOTINHERITED). The link provided is to a WordPress blog by a person who has published in this journal. The article has a deceptively long list of "references", most of which are to the journal itself and the rest are the above-mentioned blog and non-selective indexing services.

The references to the journal itself are only used to verify the issue themes mentioned, the references to the indexing services are only used to verify that the journal is indeed indexed in these databases. The references in the main text, however, which gives "routine, uncontroversial details of a journal" are from "official institutional and professional sources" (as demanded by WP:NCriteria https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(academic_journals). Namely 1) a reference to the publishing institute to verify the statement of ownership, 2) one reference to the Austrian Research Funding Agency (FWF), which reviewed and monitored the journal in its first three publishing years, to verify the scope of the journal, 3) two references to the Austrian Research Funding Agency to verify the statement that the journal was launched with initial funding of said agency, 4) a reference to a professional journal dedicated to news and information about Medieval Studies to verify the statement when the journal was launched. Kunstförderer^(T) 12:24, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That may all be true, but nothing of that is evidence of notability, either by meeting WP:NJournals or by meeting WP:GNG. --Randykitty (talk) 12:30, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As Randykitty said, the issue here is not WP:V, but rather WP:N. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 12:45, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The journal may meet these criteria for notability from WP:JOURNALCRIT:

Criterion 1: The journal is considered by reliable sources to be influential in its subject area.
Criterion 2: The journal is frequently cited by other reliable sources.

Re criterion 1, I note that:

The journal is cited as an example of historiographically significant attempts to challenge chronological and geographical boundaries in historical study: Stuart Airlie, Maud Anne Bracke and Rosemary Elliot, 'Editorial', Gender & History, 28 (2016), 275-82 (p. 281, fn. 19) doi:10.1111/1468-0424.12205.
The journal is cited as evidence that 'wide-ranging comparison on a Eurasian scale has become a hot topic in Medieval Studies': Walter Pohl, 'Introduction: Meanings of Community in Medieval Eurasia', in Meanings of Community across Medieval Eurasia: Comparative Approaches, ed. by Eirik Hovden, Christina Lutter and Walter Pohl (Leiden: Brill, 2016), pp. 1-23 (pp. 1-2); https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1163/j.ctt1w76w6c.5.
Issue 4 is reviewed in Alfons Labisch, 'Molecular Historiography–neue Gegenstände und neue Methoden einer neuen Geschichtsschreibung?', NTM: Zeitschrift Für Geschichte Der Wissenschaften, Technik Und Medizin, 26(3), 351–366; doi:10.1007/s00048-018-0198-7.
The journal is presented as evidence that 'there are new and lively initiatives which speak either directly or indirectly to the notion of a global history for the millennium before 1500': Catherine Holmes and Naomi Standen, 'Introduction: Towards a Global Middle Ages', Past & Present, 238, Issue suppl. 13 (1 November 2018), 1–44, doi:10.1093/pastj/gty030.

Given how seldom journals are the subject of academic commentary per se, this isn't a bad set of citations to my mind.

Re criterion 2, I looked up some of the journal's early articles on Google Scholar and several have 4-6 citations; that may not sound like much in some fields, but in history, that's good going. I did some similar searches of articles from Past & Present from the same year and they aren't cited much more frequently, and Past & Present is certainly a major journal. Alarichall (talk) 18:00, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Past & Present is also indexed in several selective database, and has a history of 70+ years. This is a relatively new journal, indexed nowhere selective. Quite likely a case of WP:TOOSOON, but see also WP:CRYSTALBALL. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:42, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, @Headbomb: Thanks for the reply! I'm not trying to suggest that this journal is notable for the same reasons as Past & Present. I was just trying to get a benchmark for what 'frequently cited' looks like in this journal's field, in relation to notability criterion 2. I still think it meets the stated criteria. The citations I gathered for criterion 1 suggest that the foundation of the journal is a singificant step in a new historiographical development in medieval studies, so that particular claim to notability doesn't have much to do with the journal's longevity. I'll try popping a bit more prose into the entry to spell out how this might work. Alarichall (talk) 10:30, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I've added the following to the article, hopefully helping explain how the article meets Criterion 1 (and also generally widening the source-base of the article):

Scholarly commentators have found the journal noteworthy for its programmatic efforts to change the parameters of Medieval Studies, making the field less Eurocentric and attempting to integrate it into comparative history, world history, and interdisciplinary history-writing.^[1] They noted that it was promoting a new trend for 'wide-ranging comparison on a Eurasian scale'^[2] and numbered it among 'new and lively initiatives which speak either directly or indirectly to the notion of a global history for the millennium before 1500'.^[3] The journal's push for a new interdisciplinarity was particularly noted in a review of its fourth issue, on the historiographical consequences of archaeogenetic research.^[4]

Comment: I appreciate your efforts, but I am afraid that none of the sources that you list show real notability. At least one is not independent (Pohl is one of the editors) and all are in fact what we call "in-passing mentions". None is an in-depth analysis of this journal. --Randykitty (talk) 19:36, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I see your point, though frankly I don't see that the encyclopaedia stands to gain much from deleting this article (and others like it) either. So what's your objection re criterion 2? The journal is frequently cited by reliable sources. Ta! Alarichall (talk) 19:59, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Re #2: a smathering of citations is to be expected for any journal and is in and of itself not an indication of notability. This kind of citation data would not even be enough to make a single academic notable, let alone a whole journal. As for what the encyclopedia gains, that's not really a matter to be discussed here. Suffice it to say that that argument goes for any article not meeting our notability requirements (I could write an article about my cleaning lady, what's the harm for leaving that float around...) More seriously, there are journals that really should not be listed anywhere. To keep those out, we need clear and objective inclusion criteria. Which we then have to apply to all journals, to avoid a situation where editors like us have to make a subjective judgment about whether or not a particular journal is worthy of inclusion or not. --Randykitty (talk) 21:52, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I did a little digging. She was in a band called Loud N Proud. She is also a song writer for herself. She has released songs in 2017 and 2018.SWP13 (talk) 02:11, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- @SWP13: Can you explain how she passes WP:MUSICBIO? — ᴀnemone ᴘroᴊecтors 17:07, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As the main contributor of Emily Middlemas, I propose that the page should be kept. According to WP:MUSICBIO, section 1, Middlemas passes. She has been featured in several online and print publications. Also, section 12 is passed in some respects. She was one of the finalists on The X Factor; that in itself is an achievement. — Joesimnett (talk) 17;43, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
- Criterion 12 would apply if there had been a TV show or radio programme about Emily Middlemas. For The X Factor, number 9 applies. — ᴀnemone ᴘroᴊecтors 17:53, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- @AnemoneProjectors: Criterion 4, however, also applies to Middlemas, as she has gone on two national tours; The X Factor Live Tour (2017) and The Memory Lane Tour (2018). — Joesimnett (talk) 18:08, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - Criterion 4 says "Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country" not "has gone on tour". The X Factor Live Tour isn't her own tour, it's a part of The X Factor that the majority of finalists are invited to each year so doesn't give her additional notability outside of The X Factor. I Googled the other tour and got only 98 results, most of which are not independent reliable sources. — ᴀnemone ᴘroᴊecтors 19:07, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect. I agree that the proper place on wikipedia for this subject is on the List of The X Factor finalists (UK series 13)#Emily Middlemas. Outside of her involvement with that show/tour, there simply aren't enough examples of significant, independent coverage in reliable sources. Coverage that does exist in reliable sources are routine coverage accorded to any contestant who made the finals. The keep arguments above fall under WP:EXIST. ShelbyMarion (talk) 21:19, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep has significant coverage in muktiple national newspapers which is not routine coverage as appearing repeatedly in one of the top five most popular shows in the UK and making the finals is not routine for a singer.

As Wikipedia appears to have no policy about it, of course it doesn't debar it.

Comment IWI asked me to check the sources for this article. Most of them are not live links, but of the ones that are, this is what I found:

Ref 2 is in Farsi and the file doesn’t support ‘find in page’.
Ref 8 I can’t get to open.
Ref 9 is in English and is a proper google book link, so we can see it does support the content of the article. There at least was a person of this name and the bare bones of the article are based in fact.
Ref 11 is in English but does not support the content of the article
Ref 18 says it’s in Arabic but it isn’t - it appears to be Farsi. I ran a text search on گیسو دراز and came up with nothing.
Ref 21 I can’t get the link to open.
Ref 22 is to an archived book in Arabic. I ran a text search on گیسو دراز and came up with nothing.
Ref 23 is to an archived book in Farsi. I ran a text search on گیسو دراز and came up with nothing.

I also checked the refs for Syed Adam Banuri and found that:

Ref 1 does refer to Sheikh Adam Banuri but does not mention the dates contained in the article
Ref 2 also refers to Banuri (so he definitely existed) but provides the Hijri date for his death of 1053 (ie 1643) and says nothing of his birth date. This ref supports the text in the article giving his death as in 1643 in Medina, but the birth date is unsourced and impossible.
Ref 3 again clearly indicates that the historical person existed.
Ref 4 is a snippet view with material not related to the part of the article it allegedly supports.
Ref 6 supports the text
Ref 7 supports the text
Ref 11 refers to Banuri but does not mention Shah Jihan sending him on the Hajj
Ref 12 is in Urdu so I can’t read it
Ref 13 is in some dodgy file format I’m not opening
Ref 14 repeats his date of death but does not support his place of burial.

Mccapra: Just so you know, you mentioned doing text searches in some scanned books which aren't possible to search in (they're just a bundle of photographs, as far as the computer is concerned), so the search returning no results doesn't indicate one way or another whether the subject is mentioned in the book.

As she is young, and working with young people, much of her activism is through sources which Wikipedia does not consider reliable (eg Facebook) - however, she has received significant coverage from mainstream media.

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. Fails WP:PROF. As the artist, she also seems to fail WP:CREATIVE - no awards, and very limited coverage - not seeing anything beyond what's in the article, and the only possibly in-depth article on her ([4]) is paywalled and I cannot access it (I am also not even sure it is in-depth at all). _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:43, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Her stamp designs are held in the national museum; she is a judge for a national award; these seem to satisfy notability. PamD 13:50, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Are the stamps there because of who is the artist or because the Museum collects all stamps? If the latter, it's like saying that having a book in a national library is sufficient for notability - but in fact national libraries have a duty to collect a copy of each book printed. Being a part of the most inclusive collection is a pretty low bar. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 14:10, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The complete article is not freely available, but the section on the subject of this Wikipedia article certainly exists, and even that fragment suggests that it goes towards meeting WP:CREATIVE #1, "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors". If this article is not kept, I would suggest Draftify - it is a very new article, which seems to have been created in mainspace by a new Wikipedian, who may well have access to sources which could substantiate the claims of notability.

Delete. Radio stations do sometimes go out of business or change their call signs, so it's certainly within the realm of possibility that the station existed in the past even if it doesn't still exist now — but we have seen hoax articles created about radio stations that never really existed at all, as well as stations that got license approvals on paper but never actually launched before their approvals expired and thus never actually broadcast at all. So we don't simply assume that a radio station passes WP:NMEDIA in the absence of adequate verification in reliable sources — the inclusion test for a radio station is not satisfied just because the article text says so, but requires reliable sources to properly support that the station actually meets the notability criteria.

An obscure compilation, not even with an AllMusic review. The only “source” I found include discogs and amazon, none of which are notable. No indications that this meets GNG or placed on a notable chart. TheGracefulSlick (talk) 17:48, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There seem to be two albums with almost the exact same name that are being confused here: the one linked above by theGracefulSlick, entitled "The Best of Blue Öyster Cult: Don't Fear the Reaper", which was released in 1983, and the one called "Don't Fear the Reaper [Sony Music Special Products]", which was released in 2000. The title of the former of these albums better matches the title of this article, but the article has the release date (February 8, 2000) of the latter, while also having the album cover of the former. This needs to be sorted out, partly since the latter album actually does have an AllMusic review. IntoThinAir (talk) 18:25, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Upon closer scrutiny it is clear that the track listing for this album also matches that of the 1983 album, not the 2000 one. In short, it is clear that this album was released in 1983, not 2000, in which case the statement by theGracefulSlick that this album has no AllMusic review is correct, but the release date for the album in the article now is not.

Keep - well-known "Best Of" by the band, which has been re-released in multiple formats since appearing on early CD in 1983. According to WorldCat, there were at least 8 editions published from 1983 onward. Here, for example, is the 1983 cassette tape. In 2016, there was even a limited edition Double-Album on blue vinyl release. --Leflyman^Talk 19:13, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Amazon and WorldCat do not prove the assertion of being “well-known”—reliable, significant coverage does.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 21:17, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Originally claimed in the AFD it was "an obscure compilation" -- which it is not, as demonstrated by the number of times the album has been re-released. Perhaps if not familiar with the Blue Oyster Cult and are only looking for Internet sources, it seems to be "obscure." For a "Best Of" released in 1983, that has been in continuous release since, that's an amusing claim. This may be a case of systemic bias; as you may not find sources for things like Best Of albums which were discussed in print before the Internet existed.

Note that the article Best Of includes many such compilation albums from numerous artists, which is expanded in the List of greatest hits albums. Would you argue that all of those are likewise obscure and non-notable? --Leflyman^Talk 19:25, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Leflyman the onus is on you to present reliable sources. We cannot work on the belief sources may possibly exist in print; that argument—something we tend to avoid—could be thrown into any discussion on notability to get around addressing the issue. As for your question, that is a straw man arguement since I never claimed that all “Best of”/greatest hits albums are inherently obscure and unnotable.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 04:05, 22 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

TheGracefulSlick, actually, the onus is upon you to demonstrate why WorldCat is not a "reliable source." Likewise, the point about the Amazon listing demonstrates that a new version does exist, in vinyl, with actual reviews, which like those at AllMusic show that it is not "obscure." WP:ATA is an essay, and while it may feel appropriate to reference it, I'd suggest it's best to avoid trying to cite essays as though they are policy. As to my final point, you have chosen a single "Best Of" album by a well-known band to target, which is no different than the hundreds of other Best Ofs in the category List of greatest hits albums and Category:Greatest_hits_albums_by_year.

Your claim for removing this article breaks down to 1) The album is "an obscure compilation"; 2) that it doesn't even have a review on AllMusic; 3) that you weren't able to find any sources, other than discog and Amazon, which you state are not "notable". I have shown that none of these claims are accurate. Perhaps if you were talking about later released compilations, The 70s: Blue Oyster Cult or The Essential Blue Oyster Cult-- both of which actually have AllMusic reviews, the latter even having an article -- then I would have agreed that they might be "obscure." But this was the first compilation released for the band, and continues in release, as the library holdings show.--Leflyman^Talk 17:59, 22 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sikh Presence In Los Angeles[edit]

90 percent of the references are to Wikipedia, while I'm sure interesting to the Sikh community I'm not seeing the applicability in a stand alone article notability or need for the presence in one particular city. This was not ready for article space, it was submitted to AFC declined and then passed by the author.

Delete I moved it into draft but this was moved back without addressing the issue with the sourcing of the article. A search did not reveal significant coverage - I can see articles on the vandalism of a Sikh temple and some passing mentions, but little else that would warrant an article such as this.

Like a similar (but not exactly related) article up for deletion, this is an article with two obvious BLP violations that should not be ignored. Clear case of BLP1E for “sources cover the person only in the context of a single event”. BLPCRIME also states: “For relatively unknown people, editors must seriously consider not including material—in any article—that suggests the person has committed, or is accused of having committed, a crime, unless a conviction has been secured”. Since we do not have a crystal ball we must presume innocence and it is difficult to maintain a neutral bio with that in mind. TheGracefulSlick (talk) 02:22, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
