Not notable. Von Burg is categorized here as a mathematician. If so, then he must have a list of profound and recognized contributions to mathematics. As far as I see, he entered Exeter College undergraduate studies in 2012 but there is no information whether he finished it, no knowledge about distinction or recognitions particular to his study.
No one is a notable mathematician for just being successful at secondary school math level competitions.
His success at IMO is not correctly valued. Von Borg never won the first place. The highest one was the third place in 2010. So, if we give gold medal to the competition winner, the silver to the runner up, then this student would have no more than a single bronze medal in five runs. The criterion to win gold was to get no less than 30 out of 42 points. The real IMO competition star was Ciprian Manolescu, who participated 3 times, and every time he scored perfect 42 points (already noticed by Arimakat).
All those awards are no more than local moral incentives given to a promising student.

- neutral - I'm not sure that doing well on that hellish dissection isn't notable. I notice that there's nothing on the page since 2012. Nor is there anything I can find about him at a glance. Chances are though, that he'll be producing papers soon, and there aren't that many people in Category:Serbian mathematicians ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 17:36, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- delete - I do not see what makes him notable. CLCStudent (talk) 21:25, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep I think that this article should be kept because it meets the requirements of policy. According to IMO's official website he has won four gold medals at the International Mathematical Olympiad, which is the mathematics field most important world event, widely described as the "most prestigious mathematical competitions in the world" and vaguely equal to the Olympics, which is why it's called an Olympiad. He was also won a silver medal and a bronze medal. All these medals can be verified. He is also second in the hall of fame, making him the IMO's second most successful participant ever. A short google search also shows many people describing him as the most successful IMO participant ever, although this is not quite accurate. But then the nominators comments are not accurate either, a gold medal is a gold medal. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 21:58, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Also I will point out that this article was put forward to be deleted before and kept, and the points made then are still valid. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 22:01, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment@Ilyina Olya Yakovna My statements are verifiable, therefore accurate. My main point "No one is a notable mathematician for just being successful at secondary school math level competitions." holds.--BTZorbas (talk) 23:08, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- However describing gold medals from what is widely described as one of the worlds most prestigious mathematics competitions as "local moral incentives given to a promising student" is not the finest example of an accurate statement. Nor is your hypothetical analogy about the medals particularly helpful since I got totally confused and thought you were saying something completely different. Also I think it is unfair to say that he is no longer notable because he is now the second most successful participant at the International Mathematical Olympiad, which is the main reason for deletion, since it was clearly decided to keep the article when he was the most successful participant. This being according to the International Mathematical Olympiad's own rankings, and not your own undisclosed personal ranking of what a notable mathematician is. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 23:27, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment@Ilyina Olya YakovnaPlease, stop distorting my statements. I said "All those awards are no more than local moral incentives given to a promising student." Search for the "award" word in the biography. Medals are not awards nor I ever equate these two things.--BTZorbas (talk) 23:59, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- In the English language the word "medal" is a synonym of "award" with near identical meaning.[1][2][3] You should have specified what awards you were talking about rather than vaguely stating "those awards" as you did not mention any awards other than his gold medals in what you wrote. English is not my first language but I feel you have written your comment in a most unclear way and without saying why exactly Teodor von Burg is not notable. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 00:15, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment@Ilyina Olya Yakovna Please, stop talking nonsense. English language, as any spoken language, is context dependent. I've used these two words ("medal", "award") exclusively in the biography context. The other two users who commented my proposal did not find anything wrong with the proposal.--BTZorbas (talk) 00:37, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- Exactly my complaint, you don't give any context, you just write about his IMO medals then make a random comment about awards and expect everyone to know what you mean.
- Comment@Ilyina Olya Yakovna My statements are verifiable, therefore accurate. My main point "No one is a notable mathematician for just being successful at secondary school math level competitions." holds.--BTZorbas (talk) 23:08, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
But to break it down. He has:
- 4 gold, 1 silver, 1 bronze medals at the International Mathematical Olympiad.
- 3 gold, 3 silver medals at the Balkan Mathematical Olympiad.
- 2 gold, 1 silver, 1 bronze medals at the Junior Balkan Mathematical Olympiad.
- He is the most successful ever competitor of the Junior Balkan Mathematical Olympiad.
- He is the second most successful ever competitor of the International Mathematical Olympiad. (first place for 3 years).
- Record youngest competitor of the Junior Balkan Mathematical Olympiad, Balkan Mathematical Olympiad and International Mathematical Olympiad.
- He has taken part in 57 other mathematical competitions, with: 44 first, 11 second, and 2 third prizes.
- Saint Sava Award, for his contribution and commitment in the field of education.
- He was awarded the Charter of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts.
- Karić Brothers Award, in the field of scientific and research work.
- By my count, ten reliable sources in the article/identified.
- Another six or so non-English sources, being news reports and biographies that no one has included.
- A great many of mentions, mostly saying how he is the world's best young mathematician.
So really my point is why do you think this is not good enough? What possible reason to delete this article is there? It is very clear to me that he is notable according to your policy entitled WP:GNG and the other policy called WP:BIO which says the same. You are just hiding the facts behind vagueness that cannot be understood and pretending your concept of who is a notable mathematician is relevant when the policy clearly disagrees with you.

- Strong delete Being a student competitor in math is just not a sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:00, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- Not by itself, but what about being a world-class competitor in the most renowned international maths competition in conjunction with having received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject? Having written a book is also not a sign of notability, but that is not a particularly good reason for deleting Lemony Snicket. --Lambiam 11:11, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Lambiam The most renowned international SECONDARY SCHOOL maths LEVEL competition? Right? That competition is certainly a notable event, but neither of the competitors is a notable mathematician. Right?--BTZorbas (talk) 15:07, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- BTZorbas, I think you are confusing what is a notable person according to the policy with your opinion of what is a notable mathematician according to an external guide designed for adults, probably professors at that. There is no policy specially for mathematician's on Wikipedia, I have looked very carefully. Also for Wikipedia notability it does not matter that he is not an adult because his achievements are out of the ordinary. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 15:33, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

From WP:NPROF.
This guideline is independent from the other subject-specific notability guidelines, such as WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC, WP:AUTH etc. and is explicitly listed as an alternative to the General Notability Guideline.[1] It is possible for an academic not to be notable under the provisions of this guideline but to be notable in some other way under one of the other subject-specific notability guidelines.

- Strong delete, because this is confounding the (possibly already questionable) values of undergraduate contests and their notability, like some Olympics or Olympiads (a misconception of meaning as a contest per se), themselves and the notability of their "medalists", who still have to show their notability on the job. (Does "least non-notable" exist, and is a notable property therefore?) Purgy (talk) 07:40, 18 January 2018 (UTC)′
- Weak keep (!vote altered per TimTempleton - cultural differences) WP:GNG doesn't require that editors spend time analyzing if somebody is important or not. It simply requires we find if enough coverage in independent reliable sources exists. It undoubtedly does, therefore specific sub guidelines from WP:BIO or others are mostly irrelevant - they are there to help make a decision but shouldn't be abused to delete something simply because one has never heard of it or because subject doesn't meet one specific sub-criteria which might not even apply. If this were the one-time winner of some competition, then yes delete per WP:BLP1E. However, article subject has received sustained coverage for multiple events and, per WP:ANYBIO, "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times." - The 'Charter of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts', if not the gold medals (which I agree are probably not that important), is clearly such an significant award, being awarded by a national level institution. Judging the intent behind the award is WP:OR and does not render the award moot. 198.84.253.202 (talk) 16:30, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment @Ilyina Olya Yakovna alias 198.84.253.202 Yet another misinterpretation of the Wikipedia guidelines from the same person. WP:ANYBIO states:
2. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field.
Von Burg is categorized as a mathematician. If so, then where is the list of his contributions "in his specific field"? I found none.--BTZorbas (talk) 20:53, 18 January 2018 (UTC)- Pings don't work for IPs.WP:ANYBIO states "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included [emphasis mine]" - there is no requirement to meet all conditions. Of course, it is possible that a subject meets the criteria and is yet not notable, however given the repeated coverage in RS I don't think that is the case here. 198.84.253.202 (talk) 21:01, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- BTZorbas, what are you talking about? This person has made a massive impact to Serbian mathematics, he is the best known junior mathematics competitor of his generation. This is explained many times in ten national newspapers over several years. And there is no doubt this will remain on the historical record for some time, especially if he goes on to do mathematics after graduation, because it is an achievement that is out of the ordinary. I seriously doubt you are doing anything but trying to hold up your nomination now, seriously there is no shame in making the article better rather than deleting it. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 21:30, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- BTZorbas, what do you base your accusation on that 198.84.253.202 and Ilyina Olya Yakovna are the same editor? Merely on the fact that they agree on this issue? You cannot wildly fling accusations around without specific evidential basis. --Lambiam 16:25, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

- Comment @Ilyina Olya Yakovna alias 198.84.253.202 Yet another misinterpretation of the Wikipedia guidelines from the same person. WP:ANYBIO states:
Provisional delete. First, let's clarify some things. He certainly doesn't pass WP:PROF, but that's irrelevant if he passes WP:GNG. The nomination says that he's listed as a mathematician but is not notable as a mathematician, but again, this is not an argument for deletion (at most, it might be an argument for removal from mathematician categories).
But does he pass GNG? At a cursory look, I really don't think so. The hits that are being adduced as evidence seem mainly to be what you would call "passing mentions" (e.g., a listing in a table of competition winners). To support notability, you'd need the source to say, at a minimum, something beyond the fact that he won. I don't think we want to establish a regime of presumptive notability just for winning math contests, even prestigious ones.
I said "provisional" because I could certainly have missed some more meaty coverage in the sea of trivial hits. If that's the case, the defenders should narrow down the refs being adduced as evidence and point us to the strongest ones. Also, this is a case where he may not be notable now, but there's a strong possibility he'll become notable in the future, and the deletion should carry no prejudice against re-creation in that case. --Trovatore (talk) 21:35, 18 January 2018 (UTC)- link Article with in depth coverage from Serbian news station B92.

- No. 19 is an interview and No. 26 seems to contain some biographical data - that seems to satisfy the criteria. A good number are indeed simply lists of winners. Agree with the remark against prejudice in case this gets deleted (though one must take care not to get into WP:CRYSTAL territory, unlike Ilyina above). WP seems to have also a lacking coverage of subjects which are not British or American (Battle of Charleroi is an example I'm working on - compare with the excellent coverage on closely related Battle of Mons which involves British troops). As I said above, subject also meets criteria 1 of WP:ANYBIO for winning a nationally prestigious award. 198.84.253.202 (talk) 21:59, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- I withdraw my !vote. It does look like there are sources with more than trivial mentions (note to User:Ильина Оля Яковна: sometimes less is more — if you had started with those, rather than spamming in tens of trivial hits, it would have been more convincing from the start). As to whether the sources are "reliable", I don't have any reason to think they're not, but I also have no familiarity with them. So I'll abstain for now. --Trovatore (talk) 12:33, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

- WP isn't biased against anything - editors are (Criticism_of_Wikipedia#Systemic_bias_in_coverage). Again, as I said above, coverage of a sourced topic shouldn't be deleted simply because it is something distant to most editors. The sad thing about discussions is that people don't always take the time to read every comment, often making summary judgements with little basis in either sources or policy (often misunderstood). If it was just me, I'd say ignore WP:GNG when it prevents you adding a good article about something, and this is a case were WP:IAR should apply even if there are more persons who say "delete" (ignoring this isn't a vote and that restatement of the same opinion isn't an argument). 198.84.253.202 (talk) 01:45, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

- Weak delete - I went to his Serbian Wikipedia page [[4]], to see what kind of sourcing there was, since the limited sourcing for this English article and a Google search in English clearly point to a delete. I don't read Serbian, but was able to identify four news articles from Serbian publications, of which three were just about him. Amidst a handful of dead links, the rest are announcements about the math olympiad tournament and promotional fliers. That's just not quite enough, especially when you consider how because of cultural differences, this news would be of much more interest to Serbian media than to the US. (Anyone here know that the US was one of two teams ever to get perfect team scores at the Olympiad? Me neither. Fails WP:GNG.

There are two bursts of RS coverage; first for the event itself and second for the criminal proceedings eight months later. After that coverage disappears.

- I stand by my Speedy Delete for WP:COPYVIO as it is a direct word for word copy paste from https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-demers-43b11781. User:73.253.57.124 (who is/affiliated with the WP:SPA User:Apexspry?) asked User:Anthony Appleyard to bring it back, who nominated it for deletion. Re: "cross-listed on a dozen other content-related wikipedia pages, and this material has been online and vetted by users since 2013" the page is linked on 6 articles, at least 3 of which were added by Apexspry, the original author of the page, and the remainder were added by SPA IP addresses shortly thereafter. It isn't on any other wiki projects. The reality is that the page hasn't really been vetted, per se: the article has seen light editing, and other editors have come through and removed puffery, and flagged the article for various problems, and Apexspry has repeatedly removed those flags. I also note that Apexspry claims the photograph of the artist as Own Work (it also appears on the linkedin page too) which implies WP:COI also. Closing mod should not the preponderance of IP and redlink commenters here in this AfD. --Theredproject (talk) 01:24, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment if the copyvio is real , i.e. the Linkedin page predates the wikipedia page, then you should take action to clean it up. User Dianaa is usualy happy to revdel things.198.58.161.137 (talk) 09:24, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

- I stand by my
Keepfor Michael Demers. I am not, nor am I related to or connected to, the subject as User:Theredproject implies, so no violation of WP:COI here. I have also not repeatedly removed flags unless I have made edits to the page to correct such flags. I am not quite the power user that User:Theredproject is, but I don't think that should preclude me from being a part of this community. I will make edits to the page, even though my information is cited from printed material, and User:Theredproject can hopefully move on. Apexspry (talk) 11:32, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

- Delete PROMO by SPA...likely a vanity page. Most of the anon "keeps" above are likewise SPAs. Agricola44 (talk) 16:10, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment Folks, the original request of a Speedy Delete by User:Theredproject was for WP:COPYVIO. The page has since been edited to amend that complaint. Whether the page is a PROMO, or I'm a SPA, or I've got clones or am soliciting responses seem to be another issue -- and there are cogent arguments to be made against any of those assumptions (Assume Good Faith, right?). Can we resolve the issue of the WP:COPYVIO before we move on to these other (alleged) infractions?Apexspry (talk) 18:44, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Clarification. The article is at AfD and my !vote is based on the merits of that issue. The article's subject is at a junior college and does not show any acceptable (for our purposes) impact w.r.t. publishing, books, cited articles, etc. (NOTE: There is another person having a similar name, who is well-cited.) You are a SPA in that your short edit record shows edits which only support the person of Michael Demers. There is a strong positive correlation with being a fan or vanity page, which in turn correlates strongly with not being notable. The article is basically promotional...another correlated bad sign. The sources aren't very good and the claim for notability is pretty flimsy, basically that this person is a professor and has taught. So, aside from whatever COPY problems there might have been, the problem now is demonstrating notability. I'm not seeing it. Agricola44 (talk) 20:45, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment. Debate seemed a little suspicious, so I checked and tagged the SPA contributions. It seems that all the "keeps" so far are from SPA accts. Agricola44 (talk) 20:54, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- you tagged me incorrectly, and I have removed it. Check contribs properly before tagging like that.198.58.161.137 (talk) 23:58, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- I don't think so. Your account is 3 days old and you happened to jump into an esoteric area of internal WP debate at the same time as a whole bunch of other new-found accounts to "keep" this article? I guess you feel that because you've also made edits on a half-dozen other articles in those 3 days, you should be considered a seasoned, disinterested editor. Most seasoned, disinterested editors would not consider 3 days to be sufficient dues. Agricola44 (talk) 00:22, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- Me again, my IP reset. I counted 17 distinct pages that I worked on, including extensive edits to Gerald le Dain. Arrogant editors like yourself, who like to pick on IP accounts for no reason as you do here, are a significant problem in Wikipdia. I'm not an SPA, you tagged me as one...198.58.168.40 (talk) 00:56, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

- you tagged me incorrectly, and I have removed it. Check contribs properly before tagging like that.198.58.161.137 (talk) 23:58, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment Can we get back to the matter at hand? The page has been updated. Does this satisfy the initial issues as raised by User:Theredproject? And can User:Agricola44 tell me how many edits have to be recorded before he stops accusing those of us with a just a few edits as SPA?Apexspry (talk) 11:31, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- You can be flippant about it, if you wish. Your edits have only supported Michael Demers, either on the article itself, or on other articles to insert his name. It suggests COI and lessens the credibility of your !vote. Best, Agricola44 (talk) 12:44, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

- Comment I am seeing two OK sources about the announcement: this and this. There is also a bit of more WP:ROUTINE coverage in this. I would likely say it is WP:TOOSOON as they don't have a single team and have not generated much in the way of coverage from very reliable sources. But others may feel differently. Yosemiter (talk) 00:42, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Addendum: Delete under my toosoon argument. If this thing fizzles out, and that seems likely with their website currently showing "Account Suspended" as the mainpage, then it could never be more than the one three sentence paragraph in the lead, which makes the article fall under the problems in WP:PERMA and WP:WHYN. Yosemiter (talk) 14:37, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:CORPDEPTH with lack of significant coverage from multiple independent sources. I could not find more than the 2 sources already mentioned above by Yosemiter. Perhaps it is just WP:TOOSOON if the league finally takes off at some point.—Bagumba (talk) 13:34, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as per above. There's not enough information or coverage about the league yet to have an article, and it's WP:CRYSTAL to assume it will ever function as a football league. power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:59, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

- @Unscintillating: And absolutely none of that is set in stone. Stop wikilawyering. The last discussion was closed because it garnered no new comments after two relists.

- There is nothing saying I absolutely must not reopen. Is the two months thing mandatory? NO. So stop wikilawyering. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 16:49, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- Your avoidance of the question of what it means "with prejudice" is your Wikilawyering, because this is written and you've already cited it as relevant. But that meaning can be inferred that it means that there is a community prejudice against hasty renominations. Please withdraw your nomination. Unscintillating (talk) 18:40, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- Why should I withdraw a nomination that already has a significant amount of participation? That would be completely unnecessarily blunting an active discussion just for the sake of process.

- Delete or merge: -- the subject with co-credit with the authorship of the song, among four total contributors. This is insufficient to base notability solely on the song. Significant RS coverage addressing the subject's career has not bee presented at this AfD, so deletion should be the natural outcome. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:26, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete or merge: Not notable per GNG. Co-wrote a song ("Cruise") with five other people that received notability. Digging around it can be found the subject is involved with the Country beach songs Sessions I, II, and II but nothing notable. Rice performs locally around Florida on front porches or the bow of a boat. A fan can find sales on iTunes or other locations and when I searched almost everything was advertisement related to purchasing a song. We end up with a pseudo-biography about a man that co-wrote a popular song. "Almost" clears WP:COMPOSER but that includes (among other criteria) "Where possible, composers or lyricists with insufficient verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article should be merged into the article about their work.". This BLP mentions "Cruise" four times and any mention I can find on searching circles around this co-wrote song. Otr500 (talk) 08:23, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

Relisting comment: I originally closed as keep based on a misreading of the nom statement. Now that that's been pointed out, there's no clear consensus yet that notability is met, since the obituaries are disputed.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ansh666 05:00, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment- so there is no confusion about my above statement, I was pointing out the the obituary was routine coverage and in the other sources Stamler was not the subject of the article, the sources merely mentioned or quoted him. I do not believe this meets GNG. Two of the keep arguments are (wrongly imo) based off of the assumption that a New York Times obituary equals automatic notability.--Rusf10 (talk) 05:11, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- No, in your nomination, you stipulated that "an obituary" was not part of the "routine" coverage of crimes he prosecuted. Now your statement is that "the obituary" is "routine", but there are two obituaries. "John Stamler named citizen of the Year" is not mere mentions or quoting him. "John Harry Stamler (December 3, 1938 – March 25, 1990)" is not mere mentions or quoting him. Your post here misrepresents me for claiming "automatic notability" for the NYT obit, as my actual words are "a strong indicator". Unscintillating (talk) 07:50, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- I don't care if this guy has ten obituaries, it doesn't establish notability. And the citizen of the year award by the "Memorial General Development Foundation" is a joke because no one has ever heard of that foundation, it's not a notable award.--Rusf10 (talk) 17:06, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

- Keep In the article, we have independent coverage from three media sources. One is a daily newspaper in Corbin, one is a weekly newspaper in Corbin, and one is a TV station in Hazard. The weekly newspaper article is authored by a staff writer, the daily newspaper uses an article written by Union College's Director of Sports Communications and is marked "© Copyright 2018 thetimestribune.com", and the TV station article suggests indirectly that the article "reflect[s] the views of this station". These sources all strongly confirm the credible idea that two small colleges in Southeast Kentucky have a football rivalry, one that dates back to 1905, and that the Brass Lantern is the symbol of the rivalry. Evidence includes the headline writer who wrote, "Patriots rally to win coveted Brass Lantern". Unscintillating (talk) 15:20, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

- In general, if something is notable enough for inclusion, there's media coverage outside of the local area. Otherwise, the rivalry is of just local interest.

- Delete Fails WP:GNG with lack of significant coverage in multiple, independent sources. The biggest issue is that it fails the guideline WP:WHYN, namely that multiple sources are needed "so that we can write a reasonably balanced article that complies with Wikipedia:Neutral point of view". The independent sources identified so far basically take about a recent game, with little background on the overall significance. Without more, editors will have little choice but to do WP:OR of sorts to cherry-pick facts from routine coverage in recaps of individual games. "Local coverage" is not as issue for me; it's the limited number of independent sources. A rivalry from say California or Texas would likely generate more in-state, independent coverage than a series from Idaho.—Bagumba (talk) 13:16, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Insufficient significant coverage has been presented to pass WP:GNG. This is a rivalry among two NAIA teams, i.e., teams that play at the lowest level of college football (below NCAA Divisions I (FBS and FCS), II, and III. Moreover, the coverage is minimal and hyper-local -- small town coverage in Hazard and Corbin -- and not even much of that. If the rivalry were significant, one would expect at a minimum to see coverage in the major Kentucky or Tennessee newspapers like The Courier-Journal, Lexington Herald-Leader, Knoxville News Sentinel, or The Tennessean. If additional significant coverage were to be found, I'd be willing to take another look. Cbl62 (talk) 17:57, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

The result was keep. Cbl62 has presented multiple independent sources that discuss the rivalry; the SNG WP:NRIVALRY defers to GNG.

- Keep. Several objective indicia of a rivalry are present, including geographic proximity (this is an intra-state rivalry); an official name for the series ("Battle of the Domes", see here); a traveling trophy (see here); history dating back to 1916; and frequency of play (played regularly from 1962-1998, less frequently before and after, but set to be renewed starting in 2018). Also, there is some coverage of the series as a rivalry, including (1) this from 1967 ("renewing for the seventh time a rivalry that was born back in 1916"); (2) this from 1975 ("the ISU-Idaho rivalry has an emotional history"); (3) this from 1976 ("Vandals, Bengals Stoke Fires in Time-Tested Rivalry"); (4) this from 2017 ("Bengals, Vandals to begin Battle of the Domes yearly rivalry series"); and (5) this from 2017 ("Bengals and Vandals Unveil New Rivalry Series, 'Battle of the Domes'"). Not a slam dunk but overall, I think there's enough to pass the WP:GNG bar. Cbl62 (talk) 06:18, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
- Comment I see Idaho State Journal and Idaho Free Press as independent sources that mention the rivalry. The others you listed are non-independent.—Bagumba (talk) 12:40, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- The first four items are from those independent sources. The fifth may or may not be independent, but is significant for its discussion of the renewal of the rivalry with a conscious effort to brand and market it under the name "Battle of the Domes". Even if the fifth is not independent, we still have significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources, thus enough to pass WP:GNG. Clearly not a slam dunk but enough. Cbl62 (talk) 16:37, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep in-state rivalries of state schools are almost always notable. This is somewhat unique that Idaho State is FCS and Idaho is FBS... but the history still holds up. Notability cannot be lost.--Paul McDonald (talk) 22:33, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - if the rivalry was notable beyond a local level, there would be coverage outside of Idaho. My rule of thumb is that without broader coverage, the case can't be made that this rivalry is anything more than of local interest. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 21:14, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

- Keep as a WP:GNG pass, per Cbl62's sources. Whether it has attracted coverage outside of the local area is irrelevant - that's not how we judge the notability of articles. Here, there appear to be multiple RS third-party newspapers within the state of Idaho that have covered this series as a rivalry over a 50-year period. And, that's enough to meet GNG.

- Digging through Newspaperarchive.com, there are actually dozens more articles discussing this series as a traditional rivalry. Here are a few more examples: (8) Bengals Host Vandals In Big 'Game of the Year', Idaho State Journal, Nov. 11, 1963 ("The moment of truth comes next Saturday for fans of Idaho and Idaho State when the two football powers clash at Pocatello in what is fast becoming a major in-state rivalry."); (9) Bengals Seek to Break Vandals Hex in Big Sky Football Opener, Idaho State Journal, Sep. 26, 1969 ("Idaho State will be meeting its biggest rival in football Saturday, the Idaho Vandals ... grudge match ..."); (10) Idaho State Too Much for Vandals, The Ogden Standard-Examiner, Oct. 4, 1970 ("The traditional rivalry, played before a capacity crowd at the ISU Minidome in Pocatello ..."); (11) ISU-Idaho is old home week, Idaho Free Press, Oct. 4, 1974 ("It's a traditional rivalry ..."); (12) Idaho-ISU game is Big Sky feature, Great Falls Tribune, Oct. 26, 1985 ("There's no question it's the biggest game of the year." ...

Sources from the 1980s and 1990s have been hard to find, as the key Idaho newspapers do not appear on Newspapers.com for those decades, but we now have at least six independent sources dealing with the series as a traditional rivalry.

Per previous PROD, and my comments at an identical draft. This article is an egregious case of WP:OR. It mixes up a number of things---the (real) religious veneration of Vatatzes, as indicated in his article; the celebration of festivals of pagan origin at his court in the 13th century; a modern festival organized by the local see of Didymoteicho; spurious claims that this was celebrated by Greek emigrants to the US (no mention of such in the sources provided); and a completely invented name , "Ioannis Vatatzeia", that does not and could not exist in Greek, as it is completely ungrammatical---all tenuously related, and suggests a coherent narrative where there is none. The same information is already contained in the article on Vatatzes, in a more factual context. The accounts associated with these articles (User:LilaDelany and lately User:Yiayiasonny) are also suspect, as they appear to be typical WP:SPA. Constantine ✍ 21:18, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Comment True, the title is absurd; makes no sense in Greek, as already observed. It is not "Iωάννης Βατάτζεια" (Ioannis Vatatzeia), but just "Βατάτζεια" (Vatatzeia), meaning in Greek "about/in honor of Vatatzis". His name "Iωάννης" (Ioannis) cannot be added to "Βατάτζεια" (Vatatzeia), this is not proper Greek; cf this article about "Βατάτζεια 2015" @ ThakiToday.com. ——Chalk19 (talk) 07:36, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

The article appears to be about a made-up subject. There is no evidence "Libertarian Nationalism" has academic recognition as an actual topic. Sources used appear to be blogs. FreeKnowledgeCreator (talk) 20:36, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete I was about to nominate it for AfD myself but FreeKnowledgeCreator beat me to it. The topic fails to meet WP:GNG. I went through the article's sources and the article is primarily an aggregation of content from non-reliable sources, opinion pieces or sources that aren't actually about the article topic but contain the words "libertarian" and "nationalism" somewhere in the text. I also tried to find sources myself and did not find any. OK, let's go through the sources cited one at a time:
- zerothposition.com - Not a reliable source.
- beinglibertarian.com - Not a reliable source.
- dbknews.com - Opinion piece from student newspaper. Although the words "libertarian" and "nationalism" are found in the op-ed, it's not actually about "libertarian nationalism".
- washingtonpost.com - Again, it contains the words "libertarian" and "nationalist" but nothing about "libertarian nationalism".
- mises.org - Not a reliable source.
- anarchistnotebook.com Not a reliable source.
- radicalcapitalist.org - Not a reliable source.
- merionwest.com - Opinion piece from a questionable source. It contains the words "libertarian" and "nationalist" but not about "libertarian nationalism" except perhaps passing mention in one sentence.

- Obvious keep. Do WP:BEFORE, properly. Anyone who !voted to delete this should recuse from AfD until they figure out how it actually works. It took less than ten seconds to find sufficient sourcing to prove notability, and the article already had enough before I did so, including RS for being a world champion! It took a few hours to completely overhaul the article, but worth the effort. This is not just a national champion in a sport (snooker), but a world champion in another (eightball pool), as well as a world champion runner-up in both snooker and English billiards. Not only that, she beat the eight-time reigning world champion for the world pool title, and the woman who would become the ten-time, record-breaking world champion after her for the national snooker one. Utterly remarkable for a non-full-time player. It's like being thrown into a cage with a tiger and a lion, armed with a pocket knife and emerging with two pelts and no serious wounds. PS: the national snooker victory came after she'd already give up pro snooker aspirations for pool. She won it as a afterthought, and just blew off the world championship because it didn't fit her BBC work schedule, despite having made it to the semi-finals last time. Badass. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 07:58, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

- That something is presently a redlink has no bearing on whether it should actually have an article. Here I'm not even clear on what the topic is, or is supposed to be, or what this is trying to list. You determined that notability is not satisfied here, maybe if you walked us through how you determined that...? postdlf (talk) 17:12, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Sorry for not expanding my rationale. These are 4 institutions in the community development block of Alipurduar II. I have no prejudice against listing colleges in any city/district in the world; however, does a list like this really comply with the general notability guidelines for lists, since the topic has not been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources? When their names can simply be stated in the Alipurduar II (community development block) article since we are only talking about 4 of them without expanding at all?(also, I am not sure these are exactly their names, since Google tells me another story [[18]] [[19]]). — Preceding unsigned comment added by RetiredDuke (talk • contribs) 18:29, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- You may be right about the outcome, but I want to make sure we get there through the right analysis. LISTN can be sufficient but not necessary to satisfy notability guidelines. More relevant questions here would look at whether we're listing entries that merit their own articles, and then whether there are enough of them to merit a standalone navigational list as a WP:SPLIT from a parent article. If the answer to either question is no (as would seem to be the case here) then listing them in the parent location article would probably be the way to go. Merging per WP:ATD is not really a deletion issue but rather just one for editing (though here the title of this list would not make a proper redirect), and all of this should really be figured out through a discussion and looking at the whole context of related content, rather than a "keep/delete per WP:SOMEACRONYM" compulsory process. postdlf (talk) 19:55, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

When their names can simply be stated in the Alipurduar II (community development block) article since we are only talking about 4 of them without expanding at all?(also, I am not sure these are exactly their names, since Google tells me another story [[18]] [[19]]). — Preceding unsigned comment added by RetiredDuke (talk • contribs) 18:29, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

- Delete - this is WP:OR - and even pretty poor OR. Sourced to PRIMARY opinion pieces (and a TV review) - not all of which indicate that the media organization supports the opinion it published. No clear secondary coverage of the topic - which makes notability unclear (is the position of the media on the Armenian genocide a topic of interest?). The article also seems POVish in that it tries to promote a false-balance on a subject in which there is little balance - sources outside of Turkey mostly unequivocally state genocide - the exception being politicians who attempt to keep diplomatic relations cool.Icewhiz (talk) 08:16, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- WEak keep -- A primary source is commonly the best source. The Armenian genocide is clearly a notable topic, but one on which the Turkish government is in denial. The position taken by media on this strikes me as a notable topic. It may be that there is also some academic work on the topic, which ought to be included. This is certainly not a good article, but not so bad as to need TNT. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:27, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Weak Keep It has very little coverage but I don't think it should be eliminated. Harut111 (talk) 13:27, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete- It really is not a notable topic. Something could be written in the Armenian Genocide about how the Turkish media denies it, but I really don't see the value of trying to compile a record of how every news agency in the world reports on it. It is also very subjective whether or not a particular news agency is neutral on the issue or not. I also question whether Press coverage during the Armenian Genocide is really a necessary list article.--Rusf10 (talk) 03:08, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

The result was keep.

- Comment I think it is incumbent on the proposer to name a notability criterion and why the article fails. E.g. could you explain why WP:NEVENT is not met, "having widespread (national or international) impact and were very widely covered in diverse sources"? We have in this article several items from the national newspaper of record and the premier national politicsl events newspaper, plus a national television network, so it seems to me to qualify. ☆ Bri (talk) 16:03, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep per GNG (disclaimer: article creator). The Juggalo March was held on the same day as the Mother of All Rallies, and both received significant press coverage. There are many sources that could be used to expand the current article, which should mention the march's purpose (to protest the FBI's classification of Juggalos as a gang), activities, planning, the number of attendees, etc. One can easily establish notability simply by searching "Juggalo March" at Google News. Even if this topic weren't eligible for a standalone entry, a redirect or merge would be more appropriate than deleting altogether. With a bit of background info, logistical details, and commentary, this article could easily make a great addition to Wikipedia. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:47, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Keep The article may need mention in the Insane Clown Posse article but the present article goes into much more depth (and has the sources for it) than would be possible as part of a larger article.

- Comment. Michig, Scope creep, as Elisa.rolle has already pointed out above, Villa Il Palmerino where Farhill lived, later the home of Violet Paget, is apparently not Villa Palmieri (also known as Villa Boccaccio), visited by Dumas, owned by George Clavering-Cowper and later by one of the Earls of Crawford (the 25th apparently died in Florence, so would be a good candidate). I say "apparently" because of the degree of confusion in various sources (including this one), and the notable absence of reliable sources in our articles, both in en.wp and it.wp. Both villas are on the hills below Fiesole; Villa Palmieri is in via Boccaccio, close to San Domenico, while Il Palmerino is in via del Palmerino, a little further east and closer to Settignano. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 23:09, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment, indeed it's quite confusing, but the source (in Italian) for Villa Il Palmerino says "A partire dal 1855 fu nelle disponibilità dei Frati di S.Croce come convento", since 1855 (one year later than her death), the Villa Il Palmerino was used as a convent... considering she had become a sort of nun, it's likely that is the right house.

- Comment After review, I have realized that this is a worse list than I initially thought. To begin with, for example Alex Boye, do we count the songs he sang with a British boy band, and with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, or do we just count productions he did as a solo vocalist. Is this recording of 100 different songs, or is it 100 recordings, so if one singer recorded the same song a lot of times, they can get to the list. Recording should include the act of making a song for a film, and each song for the film should be counted seperately. This makes me suspect that people like Nelson Eddy go here. However it also makes me ponder the implications of so many early films being lost. I also dislike the fact that this seems to suggest that only post-1900 singers can have been prolific, and that opera singers from before that are not in any way prolific.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:12, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. I could not say it much better than JPL above: it's a nightmare on all fronts. Most of these number of recordings are unsourced, dogs know where they were copy-pasted from, and they will either remain unsourced or be a constant cause for debate as sources for good reasons often don't match on the exact number of recordings by an article.

- Just because it's well referenced doesn't mean it's not an essay (eg this). But phrases like, "Workplace relationships directly affect a worker's ability and drive to succeed", "Unfortunately, conflicts can arise due to the lack of, or the absence of, common goals for the business" etc make clear that this article constitutes the author's opinion on a general theme.

- OK, lets try - PROD's work when either the original editor, or a substantial adder to an article - have the article on their watch list. The starter of the article stopped editing in 2011, and despite a whole range of editors doing things to the article - viz - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Workplace_relationships&action=history I would suggest that editors on that list who have edited in the more recent years might be interested, but they might not have it on their watch list...
AFD's work when more than two editors have a conversation about the merits of an article against the AFD criterion - never a 2 person job, or 3 - the more the merrier for more a wider point of view.
Your prod was reverted - I can see some eminent high edit editors in the history list - I'd be patient, they may turn up... not counting chickens too quickly is always a good measure.

- Procedural keep If merging is an acceptable solution, then this shouldn't be at AfD. (I'd say this page has as much reason to exist as those on the other colleges at Kent — Eliot, Rutherford, Keynes, Darwin and Woolf. Perhaps they should all be merged to create Colleges of the University of Kent, since they're all fairly short, and the Colleges section of the main university article is longish.) XOR'easter (talk) 19:44, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Comment As far as I'm aware, Kent is a collegiate university, meaning that Turing College isn't simply a halls of residence. Describing it as such would be erroneous because students go to colleges for their classes etc. st170e 21:21, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
I agree with both the two comments above. All the Kent Colleges should be moved into a single article Colleges of the University of Kent as has occurred for a number of other universities.--Bduke (Discussion) 00:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- On further reflection I am coming down to Keep. The other two collegiate universities in UK of the same era as Kent - Lancaster and York - have articles for all of their colleges. The other Colleges of Kent have longer articles. This article should be expanded and kept. We need to keep some consistency for similar situations. The other College articles have been here for some time. --Bduke (Discussion) 08:24, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Procedural keep This is a sub-topic of Kent University, and I don't see an argument that DEL8 overcomes ATD, so should not be at AfD. As per WP:Deletion policy#CONTENT, content discussions belong on the talk page of articles. Unscintillating (talk) 01:26, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Procedural keep I completely agree with Bduke as the University of Kent is semi-collegiate university, hence I created the page as other Colleges have their pages on Wikipedia. Also, college masters manage these colleges where Halls of Residences do not have this role as well as administrative offices.

The restraint shown by whites, he said, represents a respect for our feelings and our wishes. As long as we can agree to disagree, that's the key. And that's what happened here..

- Delete per @Ajf773; there are no similar articles for other languages. Also, this page seems to focus exclusively on covers in films. At the very least, it should be moved to List of cover versions of Hindi songs per convention. LaundryPizza03 (talk) 10:27, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete, the list is not needed, indiscriminate, represents only a small fraction of what exists (and appears to be selective even within its scope), and will grow forever. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:40, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Redundant. It's already covered in Category:Lists of cover songs. Yashthepunisher (talk) 15:10, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
KeepThe article is not to indiscriminate, it is informative which helps upcoming generations, it is a part of history, topic is searchable as everyone wants to know the new and old verson of Hindi songs. Since article name was not suitable so I moved the article to List of cover versions of Hindi songs. I don't agree with @Chiswick Chap; The list will not grow as only remade songs are included and only remade Hindi songs. @Yashthepunisher; said that it is redundant, Well it is not redundant and Category is not good for this type of list.Zafar24Talk 21:46, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- 1) You can only !vote once, so I have struck your duplicate !vote above.
- 2) Clearly songs will continue to be remade, indefinitely, so continued growth can confidently be predicted, contrary to your claim above. Chiswick Chap (talk) 22:04, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

The result was delete. Ultimately, after much talking, nobody advocates retention of this unsourced stub, which read in its entirety: "Mkiriwadjumoi is a monastery located near the town of Moya on the island of Anjouan in the Comoros." Sandstein 13:00, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

Though there are articles in Swedish and Cebuano, I didn't find any information beside weather data for this place Arthistorian1977 (talk) 15:52, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Given there are tons of links on the web about it, I think it refers to a separate/autonomous community within the city where it is colocated.
- I cannot assert this, but the name is commonly used. Could it that be a "local name" of the city, or a translation of the city name in some unspecified language?
- If you prefer I suggest not deleting it but replacing it by a redirect to the city. But it's true that it has a separate geographic classification than a standard place and the encoding found in various databases indicates it is a religious place.
- May be it's just a suburb in the city and the name is still accurate.
- The "lack of reference" invoked is false, there are many on the web, but how to choose between them? They were indicated in the associated talk page, where this was questioned. And anyway we should also ask to Swedish and Cebuano Wikipedia users where they took their reference, as they had already created a reference for this in Wikidata. May be the external references cannot be found in English but in other languages.
- Given the location, the local languages (Comorian, Arabic, French) should be used to search that name (which is most probably in Comorian/Mahorese, or one of its local variants, the Ndzwani (Anjouani) dialect). But I don't think it is a pure synonym (translated) of the city name and that it certainly has a religious meaning.
- Note that Moya and Mkiriwadjumoi are clearly distinguished and separated in population census data by city (so these cannot be synonyms) !
- And various published lists give these estimates (unfortunately without dates), sorted by decreasing population:
- Moroni (42 872)
- Moutsamoudou (23 594)
- Fomboni (14 966)
- Domoni (14 509)
- Adda-Douéni (10 858)
- Sima (10 374)
- Ouani (10 179)
- Mirontsi (10 168)
- Mkiriwadjumoi (8 749)
- Koni-Djodjo (8 109)
- Moya (7 529)
- ...
- It's strange that a so important city (for the country) cannot be located separately from Moya, given its rank. I suspect that the effective geolocalisation may be in fact wrong or that people are confused by the local religious status (so there could as well be two communities recognized in the same territory, a civil one and a religion-affiliated one).
- We should find locals in Anjouan to decipher this case, but we cannot decide anything here on this English-only Wikipedia alone.
- And the list of sources you suggest at top of this page are definitely not accurate and not suitable at all for this area as they are purely in English and very focused to US readers). English is not used at all in Anjouan, Comoros.
- If those on this English Wikipedia don't know anything about how to search sources in Arabic, Comorian or French, they should abstain to decide or vote anything as they ignore completely how to solve this case (the same applies to users on Swedish and Cebuano Wikipedia, but I think that Cebuano Wikipedia just copied/translated what was on Swedish Wikipedia with some bot). It would be interesting to look at the history of the article in Swedish Wikipedia and article in Cebuano Wikipedia to find the first occurence (it's possible that then many other sites on the web just started to create pages once both wikipedias were linked together via the addition of an entry Wikidata after it was translated to Cebuano). It's notable that both were created by the same import bot ("Lsjbot", developed by the Swedish physicist Sverker Johansson, and documented in Swedish, which got promoted for his work in WikiScience 2017) there in September-October 2016, but that the many external sites have existed since much longer time before in various weather/postal/population/tourism sites... (so Wikipedia is not the initial source of this name used since long).

KeepIt exists. Mkiriwadjumoi is a monastery which I can see on google maps. It is an important monastery with many people in it. It is located next to Moya, and it has a population of monks in it. The monks are not allowed out of their community so it is a separate community to the village next to it and is officially designated as its own community. I do not think your Lsjbot machine is very good because it seems to be confusing it with a normal city and can't seem to understand the concept of a monastic community. As verdy_p has already explained, being a different designated place to Moya, it is administered separately and has separate census data.I think this means it should be keep according to your policy that is called WP:GEOLAND.Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 14:55, 15 January 2018 (UTC)- Delete as failing WP:V. Not a single reference provided either in the article or in this discussion, except a lot of hand-waving. The place is not findable on Google maps; all Google hits are nebulous geodatabase entries and their derivations. The coordinates in Swedish wiki (apparently a job of "nebuolus geodatabase entries") and in this article are in very center of the town of Moya, Comoros. If it's a "monastery", which denomination it is? According to Comoros#Religion, the population is 98% Muslim, and there aren't "monasteries" in Islam. A relatively comprehensive Government page about Anjouan fails to mention the purported town of 9000. It's an author's job to prove us with references that the place exists, and vague appeals do not constitute one. No such user (talk) 15:13, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- I already explained you can see it on Google maps, it is the large building at 12°18′39.096″S 44°26′13.272″E / 12.31086000°S 44.43702000°E. Despite what your machine says, it is not a town, it is a religious community in a monastery. The general statistics indicate there are 14,000 Christians in the Comoros, that said, I don't think it is possible to fit 9000 people in that monastery and I can't see where the census data comes from. verdy_p could you please tell us how to access official census data, it would help greatly to make the article acceptable according to the WP:V policy. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 16:45, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
- Ilyina Olya Yakovna: Well, I'm pretty good at googling, so I found out this video, which shows that this building is a mosque: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYDxGm0yx7U&t=15m30s And the coordinates were apparently copied over from Moya, Comoros. During my research I haven't found any human-written evidence that a place called Mkiriwadjumoi exists. It's nowhere to be found on this map, for example. Both the sv:Mkiriwadjumoi and ceb:Mkiriwadjumoi articles were created and maintained by bots. No such user (talk) 15:06, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- However, researching further, I found out a mosque named mkiri wa djoumwa in the village of Miringoni on the island of Moheli. I suppose this is the ultimate source of the puzzle. However, I don't think it's WP:N enough for an article. No such user (talk) 15:31, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- To be fair I still think there is a monastery there, however I agree with you that there are no valid reliable sources for it. My original research of seeing a building on the google map counts for nothing when looking at the policy that requires independent sources, so this article should really be deleted for not being acceptable according to the WP:V policy. I would say that this article being created at all is an example of a machine not doing the right thing and misleading people. All the evidence shows that Mkiriwadjumoi is just a building, that is not a populated place for the purposes of the WP:GEOLAND policy. I would almost certainly say it should be kept if shown official census data that says Mkiriwadjumoi is officially designated as a religious town though, because they do exist. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 15:52, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- Also it is highly likely that it is a mosque and not a monastery at all, but I don't know on that. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 15:55, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
- For what it's worth, I dug out an interesting piece of evidence [32], quick translation from French:
Since every vilage has to have a mosque, Mahorans make a distinction between a "normal" mosque and the "Friday" one (mkiri ya djumwa). The latter, owned by the whole village that maintains it, has a role that a parochial church or a cathedral had in the Middle Ages in the West.
Thus, we can expect to find many mkiri ya djumwas, i.e. Jama Masjids across the Comoros. No such user (talk) 16:33, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

- ATDs are my thing but they don't pass NBAND. I frequently redirect and have done a number of merges. The problem is that Metal Blade is not a "major record label", as you claimed when you contested the PROD. Those labels are defined at Record label#Major labels, and that's linked on the notability criteria page. Care to explain why you have a broader set of inclusion than the rest of the project? However, Merge discussions don't come free with Twinkle,. Honestly though, there's nothing worth salvaging from the article so what's to merge? And the members are not prominent in either band (seen in the lack of write-ups). Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:39, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- I didn't claim Metal Blade was a major record label - read the guideline, which includes "one of the more important indie labels" which Metal Blade is for this genre. You claim "the members are not prominent in either band" - Rundqvist was the bassist/vocalist of Vomitory from 1999 to 2013 during which time they released seven of their eight albums, and Tobias Gustafsson was the drummer for the band's entire 24-year history, so how are those not prominent members? Do you actually read these things before making these comments? If you have a band which splits up and two of the most prominent members form another band, that's quite obviously worth including in the article on the first band. --Michig (talk) 08:46, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

The bulk of the article is vague, meaningless, or trivial to the point of tautology, on the whole lacking in coherent information, so that there's no way to simply clean it up. I've tried to figure out how to save it, but if there's an article to be written on this subject, someone knowledgable about it would have to start it from scratch. I gather there might have been some substance to the article when it was created, but that was before the copyrighted material was removed. So we have what remains to work with, and that's what I'm evaluating.
"One of the main offshoots of music": What is an "offshoot of music" and what are the main ones? I don't understand the second sentence in the lead. After that, "Teenagers are by far the most easily influenced ...": by what? to do what? The remainder of the teenagers section is the only clear assertion in the whole piece.
The adults section tells us that we lack information on how "music combined with speech" affects adults. We learn that there was a Washington baby study. Of what? Concluding what? We learn that it wasn't the latest study (because there were others since). Some institutions are "looking into" an unspecified "this" new study ... and?

- Nick Moyes, noticing my background in linguistics, suggested I take a look here with an eye toward improving the article. If there's any way to look at the text that was removed, it might well give us a hefty clue to what the remaining stuff was about. But those versions have been removed for copyvio. Does anyone know what references the deleted text cited?
The five (remaining) citations are all to the same work in different formats, and Worldcat says there's a library near me that has it. If I can have some time, say a week, I'll see what I can do.
The writing is also abominable; I could hardly bear to read it. Well, that's part of why I do a lot of copyediting. Please {{Ping}} me to discuss. --Thnidu (talk) 04:10, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

- There is nothing notable about the congregation or its leadership (a blue link into an empty wikidata page notwithstanding). All that is left is a church with Tiffany glass windows.

- Comment --We frequently do not distinguish between buildings and congregations when it comes to churches. On the other hand, most loal churches are NN. The question is whether the Louis Comfort Tiffany stained glass is enough to make it notable. I do not know. Peterkingiron (talk) 22:37, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- Strong keep Very notable church. Its architecture has been extensively noted in lots of sources. There's also coverage of the congregation. The Tiffany glass features. Just one example of the multitude of sources is the book Record of Fifty Years, 1855-1905, Second Reformed Church, Hackensack, N. J. by Arthur Johnson. The architecture of the building was also featured at a 1905 meeting of the Brooklyn American Institute of American Architects. 113 years of additional coverage and sourcing of the building, art, and congregation followed. FloridaArmy (talk) 22:55, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
- "'Record of Fifty Years, 1855-1905, Second Reformed Church, Hackensack, N. J.' " by Arthur Johnson" sounds like something written by a church member, not an independent source. The only possible notability would be the Tiffany windows, but many churches have Tiffany windows, so I do see why this one is unique.--Rusf10 (talk) 01:05, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

- Keep, per editors above. Specifically if a church has original Tiffany windows it is usually going to be notable, in practice. About User:Rhadow's question whether a church article is about the congregation/organization or about the building(s), past and present, the answer is it is usually and very appropriately about all. We don't want to split into separate articles about a historic building vs. a congregation. --Doncram (talk) 04:59, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Doncram -- I didn't meant to imply that two articles were needed. The question was which of the two is notable, the architecture or the congregation. Insofar as the article gives scant recognition of the second, I take it the discussion here is about the notability of the architecture. There are hundred of churches with Tiffany glass and a handful of synagogues.[34]. Rhadow (talk) 11:31, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
- Yep, that source titled "Tiffany Stained Glass In Churches (PHOTOS)" suggests that "churches/synagogues having Tiffany windows" is a notable topic. It asserts hundreds of windows, not explicitly hundreds of churches (which could have a dozen windows each, say) but probably there are hundreds of churches, which is still no problem. I have seen a good number of U.S. National Register of Historic Places-listed churches where the significance asserted is that the church has Tiffany windows. Many churches choose not to apply for or accept National Register listing, but it seems like "having Tiffany windows" suffices for a church being fundamentally notable. There will always then be occasional newspaper articles about the windows, before and after the internet.
- By the way that source even seems to call for a "comprehensive" list, which IMO Wikipedia oughta provide. There are sources like the exhaustive list of Michigan installations cited in the Tiffany glass article. We do have Tiffany glass#Locations and collections but not a standalone List of Tiffany windows (currently a redlink) or List of Tiffany glass installations (currently a redlink). It's about time to start that, which would naturally link to this Hackensack church article, too. --Doncram (talk) 17:30, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

- Delete - article on Finnish Wikipedia is unsourced.[[35]] Both album articles are unsourced, going on 7-10 years. I can't find any mainstream coverage - just niche metal blogs and fan sites. The article does mention they were recording a new album - but that was over 5 years ago. Nothing since. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 23:40, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
