I don't believe that Rayan qualifies under GNG. In searching, I've found a lot of things written by him, but very little written about him that wasn't produced by his own ministry. I can't search in any Indian language however so it's possible there's more about him that I can't access. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:28, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. There are some articles about Indian theologians of dubious notability, but Rayan has two books written about him (Christian faith, a liberative praxis: theology of Samuel Rayan and Christus im Kontext und Kontext in Christus: Chalcedon und indische Christologie bei Raimon Panikkar und Samuel Rayan), and a Festschrift, (Bread and breath: essays in honour of Samuel Rayan) which easily qualifies him under WP:PROF #1. StAnselm (talk) 22:49, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- Redirect to Hello Neighbor, which it's a sequel of. So far, most coverage I'm seeing is fairly routine and trivial with a handful of articles going slightly more in-depth (this article at TechRaptor News, this article at GameStar.de (in German) & this article at Twin Galaxies ), but nothing to write home about--or rather, write an article about.

- Merge to highway per Spinningpark. Bridges are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist — for a bridge to qualify for a Wikipedia article, there needs to be some reliably sourced political or social or historical context for what makes the bridge distinctive. But with the only source here being a routine directory entry in an indiscriminate database of structures, that isn't the kind of sourcing we require to make the bridge notable.

- Merge to Tongogara Refugee Camp and develop article as notable community with an Education section for the schools. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] The school itself isn't that notable as a primary school but the camp settlement may be. Alternatively redirect to Chipinge the nearest town from the camp. Note this is the Tongogara that is about 420km southeast of Harare (southeast corner of Zimbabwe), and not the Tongogara in Shurugwi (center of Zimbabwe) that has Tongogara High School.

- I don't think WP:AFD anticipates a !vote involving renaming the article to an entirely different subject and then rewriting the entire article to be about that subject. Redirect generally involves redirecting an article to an existing subject and, while I could see the reasoning behind renaming it, I'm not sure renaming it to be about something the article is not in the hope that someone might come along and then rewrite it to match the title would work. In the absence of a volunteer who is willing to undertake that, we'd be left with an article which still won't meet the notability guidelines, but it just won't be meeting them under a new name. That said, I do agree that Tongogara Refugee Camp is notable, just that the content of this article is not about that nor will it become about that following a rename. Chetsford (talk) 19:31, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

WP:BLP of a writer and journalist whose claims of notability are not properly sourced. None of the footnotes here count for anything toward establishing a person as notable: #1 is her own publication's self-published content about itself, which is not support for notability as it's not independent of her; #2 is a piece of her own writing about herself, which is not support for notability as it's not independent of her; #3 is a podcast, #4 is her own publication again; #5 is a mere meeting agenda, not content about her; #6 is an inherently unreliable source which never belongs anywhere near the references section of any Wikipedia article; #7 and #8 are both glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage of other things, not coverage about her; and #9 is the schedule page of her podcast on the website of a radio station that broadcasts it as a program, which again flunks the "independent of her" test. As always, a person does not get over a Wikipedia inclusion test on what the article says -- she gets over a Wikipedia inclusion test on how well the article references what it says to reliable source coverage about her in media that gets her over WP:GNG, but exactly zero of the references here are contributing anything toward getting her over GNG.

- Delete I agree with the nomination. Also, a note, Not all of the citations when searching her name are actually about her, many are about other people who share the same name, so the number of articles when searching google news does not reflect her relevance specifically. On top of that, she isn't even first in the google news result, only in a normal google search which is just her blog.ShimonChai (talk) 16:47, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

EvergreenFir (talk) 19:33, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- Note: I would like to mention that we have had and continue to have considerable conflicts with EvergreenFir and Rab V (among others who haven't appeared here [yet]) regarding what counts as notable, as NPOV, as a reliable source, as a correct reading of a reliable source, and so on, in the context of transgender-related Wikipedia articles or sections thereof, such as Feminist views on transgender topics, Radical feminism, Transphobia, and most recently Trans woman. This is clearly due to different ideological positions we hold, which probably influence our respective judgments to a higher or lesser degree. Without claiming bad faith: I've grown highly doubtful regarding their ability to remain sufficiently objective on such topics. (I invite everyone to apply the same type of scrutiny to me.) As Meghan Murphy is one of the more prominent figures in the feminist critique of the contemporary transgender movement (up to the point of appearing before the Canadian Senate to testify against Bill C-16), I worry that their decision here may be particularly prone to bias. I myself (as the editor who created the article) am so far undecided on whether this article is Wikipedia-worthy, even after SlimVirgin's dilligent edits, mainly because I'm fairly uninformed on the standard of quality that's normally expected for such articles. However I do think it would be a shame to delete it, as Feminist Current is currently one of the most important outlets about contemporary radical feminism, in terms of content quality, ties with figureheads of the movement, and popularity. It's also referenced in some of the transgender-related articles I've mentioned earlier. Taylan (talk) 20:53, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- You are entirely qualified to make a !vote and state why you think a subject for an article is wikipedia worthy. For me, the main qualifications for an article is that it satisfy the core content policies and that it not fall afoul of what Wikipedia is not (particularly WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE). The most common qualifier is the guideline, WP:N, which can be summarized by WP:42. So to make a good !vote, just state whether or not you think those policies and guidelines are met. For a better !vote, if you intend to !vote keep, give two or more examples from the references of in-depth coverage of the subject that is independent of the subject. You may be told that those references don't count for some reason, you can then agree or disagree as you like. I'm particularly interested in which references might apply. I think the Greer 2016 piece seems a very good source, are any of the others relatively independent and in depth? Smmurphy(Talk) 21:14, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- I've participated in many AFD votes and my objections here are purely based on notability guidelines. I'd appreciate keeping our comments just about content and not contributors, please see WP:AVOIDYOU. Being a contributor to articles, as Murphy is, doesn't alone let her pass GNG and if I saw more reliable secondary sources discussing her I'd vote the other way. Rab V (talk) 00:32, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- I second the above comment. EvergreenFir (talk) 06:40, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep.
It's borderline,but she seems to pass WP:GNG. For example, The New York Times quoted her at length in 2014 on whether men can be feminists. [6] They quoted her again when Hugh Hefner died in 2017. [7] The Globe and Mail quoted her in 2014 as an expert on workplace harassment. [8] In 2015 the sociologist Kaitlynn Mendes quoted her in her book SlutWalk: Feminism, Activism and Media, p. 95. In 2017 The Globe and Mail quoted Murphy at length to top and tail an article on hashtag activism. [9] Al Jazeera interviewed Murphy and Jamia Wilson in 2017 about what makes someone a feminist. [10] In 2018 the Philadelphia Inquirer interviewed her about whether stripping can be an art form. [11] SarahSV (talk) 21:20, 14 June 2018 (UTC) - Keep I think Feminist Current can redirect here, and together there are enough sources to make an article feasible.

- Keep - Being quoted as an expert in the Globe and Mail and the Greer 2016 profile plus extensive use as a reliable source for quotes seems to me to imply a level of expertise that seems make the subject encyclopedic.

- A person does not gain notability by being quoted as an "expert" in coverage of other things besides herself — a person gains notability only by being the subject that other people talk about in sources about her. Bearcat (talk) 16:51, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
- I don't think my argument was based on WP:N. I agree that her WP:N case is a bit weak, but her suitability does seem strong to me and within the policies and guidelines I noted, in my opinion. Smmurphy(Talk) 17:14, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep -- the case was the subject of a whole season -- 24 episodes in all -- of the Undisclosed podcast; that's the same podcast by Rabia Chaudry and others that uncovered witness coaching and mischaracterized cell phone evidence in the Adnan Syed case. It was a top-100 podcast in the US during most of the time it covered the Watkins case.[12] [13] The podcast also resulted a court case which lead to the Supreme Court of Georgia ruling that the tape of a trial is not an official Court record(!!) and hence does not need to be released to the public.[14][15] Note additionally that the murder was in 2001, but coverage, which was initially just local, has expanded of late; both of the above recent references are from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution; if you go to the article, you will also see 2016 coverage from Rolling Stone. And here is one from the Chicago Tribune[16] Pretty much all of the sourcing in the article is from 2016 or later; the conviction was in 2002.Adoring nanny (talk) 22:37, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete Definitely fails the WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. -- LACaliNYC✉ 21:44, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Actors and actresses do not get an automatic free pass over NACTOR just because they've had roles that can be nominally verified in their IMDb profile — the notability test for an actor is not "has had roles" (which is true of every actor who exists at all), but "has received enough reliable source coverage about her in media to clear WP:GNG for the having of roles".

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Most of the article is uncited WP:EL-violating WP:LISTCRUFT. The Project94 section is cited to a primary source, and has no coverage in reliable sources. The "Two-letter domain names" section doesn't belong to this article at all. The "Market value of single- or two-letter domains" section is an example farm, and should be repurposed to the topic of market value of single-letter domains in general. The "Controversy" section does not cite any secondary sources and contains one unnecessary example. Therefore, I propose that this article is nuked, since sources for this topic are available but the current article layout doesn't allow for useful prose. wumbolo ^^^ 16:20, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- keep. I agree it’s a bit of a mess but it is sourced, is on a clearly defined topic and covers that topic. It’s not just on single letter domain names but one and two letter TLDs, but they are clearly related and it is not so long that it needs splitting. Perhaps it needs renaming. External links can be removed, linked to articles if they exist but left unlinked otherwise. It might also be better done as a list article – it is half way there already – but that is not a reason to delete.--JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 17:54, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Article PRODded with reason "Non-notable new journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." PROD opposed by article creator on talk page with the argument that notable people/publisher/society are involved with this journal. Obviously, notability is not inherited and even reputable publishers produce the occasional dud. In the absence of any sourcing (except the journal homepage) or indexing in any selective index, this fails NJournals and GNG big time. PROD reason still stands, hence: delete. Randykitty (talk) 15:35, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Ah, my field. Finally something I can comment on with a hint of knowledge. (Oh, wait, that's "Occupational Health" and "science", not "Occupational" and "health science". Never mind.) Slight joking aside, let's look at WP:JOURNALCRIT first. Criterion 3 is an automatic fail: journal created in 2017. Criterion 2 is a fail: a cursory examination of Google News (for instance) turns up four hits, one of which is the journal itself, filed under "Psychology". Huh. The others don't mention a journal and "occupational health science" together in the same article, let alone both in the same sentence. OK, so Criterion 1: influential in a subject area? Given the lack of sources and the recent creation of the journal, fail. Let's look at GNG. Fail: no sources cover this that are independent of the subject. Finally, notability is not inherent, under the policy of WP:NJOURNALS.
As such, without additional evidence showing influence or independent sources, this is a clear delete.—Javert2113 (Let's chat!) 15:47, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- I write as an individual with a certain amount of expertise in the field known as occupational health psychology (OHP). Occupational Health Science (OHS) merits a WP entry, and should not be deleted. OHS was recently founded by the Society for Occupational Health Psychology, an organization dedicated to the advancement of the OHP. OHS is published by a well-regarded science publisher, Springer. Manuscript submission began in 2017. During the 2017-2018 period, OHS editors and reviewers have been reviewing submissions and selecting papers for publication. The editors will publish its first volume in the second half of 2018, probably in the fall.
- The journal is not yet indexed by PsycINFO because the first volume is still in the wings. Even when OHS will be published, there will be a lag between when the journal before it will be indexed. There typically is such a lag for a new journal. For example, when Anxiety, Stress, and Coping was launched there was a several-year wait before it got indexed in PsycINFO. Although getting indexed in PsycINFO is a "low bar" for quality recognition, PsycINFO does not publish predatory journals and other journals of ill repute. I don't anticipate a long wait for OHS to enter PsycINFO because most of the membership of the parent organization, SOHP, are members of APA, which publishes PsycINFO. As publishable papers accumulate, coverage by PsycINFO will start.
- The editor-in-chief and the associate editors of OHS journal are highly regarded researchers in the field of OHP.
- OHS is a serious journal published by (a) a reputable science-oriented organization and (b) a reputable science-oriented publisher and (c) has a leading OHP researchers at the helm. The journal's notability is clear. The OHS entry should remain.
- Of course all those qualities (reputable publisher, reputable editorial staff, reputable organization behind it) don't guarantee that the journal will be a clunker. The probability is exceedingly low.
- The journal is shaping up to be of the caliber of Work & Stress and the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology.
- I am therefore opposed to deleting the OHS entry from WP entry. Iss246 (talk) 20:52, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- The facts regarding the Society and Springer, though, not only don't substantiate your claim of notability, Iss246, they undermine it. Per WP:NJOURNALS, the baseline for notability revolves around two major themes: no inherent notability, and no inherited notability. As such, the journal itself has no inherent reason to be notable, especially if it hasn't even been printed yet. And even if it is published by Springer, and founded by the Society, their notability doesn't transfer over to the journal. Since Volume 1 of the journal hasn't been published yet, I would argue that the journal is not notable now. It may be notable at a later time, once the first volume of submissions has been published, but it is not notable at the present. —Javert2113 (Let's chat!) 23:29, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- I am therefore opposed to deleting the OHS entry from WP entry. Iss246 (talk) 20:52, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Society for Occupational Health Psychology. In arguing for its retention, Iss246 provides us with all the arguments for actually not keeping this page ("OHS was recently founded"; "The journal is not yet indexed by PsycINFO because the first volume is still in the wings."; "The editors will publish its first volume in the second half of 2018, probably in the fall."). Javert2113 gives a persuasive reason for the journal not meeting our notabilty threshold. Whilst it's clearly WP:TOOSOON right now, this journal might indeed merit a page once it becomes noted. So, for now, a REDIRECT rather than a deletion seems a sensible course of action here. Nick Moyes (talk) 00:12, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- The reasons I stated for notability were turned on their head. I gave reasons for the strength of the journal, and the editors turned those reasons into a heritability issue. It's not heritability. The composition of the staff and the supporting organization reflect on the journal's quality. Iss246 (talk) 22:11, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- Your reasoning is that the journal must be notable, because notable publishers/staff are involved. That's INHERITED in a nutshell. As for PsycINFO indexing, that would still be a long way from showing notability for this journal. --Randykitty (talk) 06:53, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Society for Occupational Health Psychology. My own search for reliable sourcing or selective indexing came up short. I agree with Nick Moyes that the lack of sourcing is likely due to it being far too soon for sourcing to develop. It is a plausible search term and we have a redirect target that places the journal in context. Hence redirect. --Mark viking (talk) 17:49, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

Blatant self promotion of a completely non notable book. Was speedy tagged previously, but shifted to draft and reworked. Most of the text are copyvios of the references. The references are all links to self published sources, self-published book pages and sales sites. No third party coverage at all. Claims to have won a major book award, but no evidence of such. In fact one of the references makes no mention of the book or author, just appears to be a random news article unconnected to anything. Seems to be nothing short of self promotional spamming.

There are third party article of Times of India and such which could prove the notability. She is also an actor and is about to do her debut film which is clearly mentioned in the Times of India article. I'm not connected to the subject, I just thought that this is a notable person and its needed to create a article about the same. Aa015 (talk) 12:52, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment - there's no evidence that the person referenced in that Times of India article is the same person. You claim she writes under that pen name, but all the links to her single book strongly show otherwise. One is apparently a non-notable author and medical student, one is a model and actress. Don't seem like the same person to me. Canterbury Tail talk 13:09, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - I can find nothing to support notability per WP:NAUTHOR or WP:GNG. If the actor is the same person (I agree that seems uncertain), one trivial mention in a blurb in TOI does not make her notable. --bonadea contributions talk 13:23, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

I respect your decision, if you think it's non-notable, please delete the article. I created it thinking that the person is notable and a article about her needs to be created. But as per I know her she is an author. Read about her in some magazine or something, but the references are not up to the mark, I agree with you on that. Aa015 (talk) 17:58, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete. Fails Wikipedia notability requirements. A search reveals only 1 source (already present in article) that talks about the author. No sources can be found about the "national fame" she 'has received'. Regarding the book, there is no evidence it is "best selling" from another search. The article is also poorly written with a copy paste of the only relevant source. Araratic | talk 08:23, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
"Random Multimodel Deep Learning" is an article based solely on the work of Kowsari, Kamran (first reference). All other references are not on "multimodel deep learning". The Kowsari work has 0 citations, and was just published. This clearly fails the WP:GNG, and thus I opt for delete. Do not let yourself be mislead by all the unrelated references in the wikipedia article. There is a link to Theano, but Theano does not include RMDL. Similarly, the "history" section explains what "ensemble learning" and "deep learning" are, not RMDL - wiki references 2-6 are not based on, or using RMDL, but older prior work that does not support this article. HelpUsStopSpam (talk) 11:30, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Some of the concerns raised by the nom are valid. Some aren't. The Kowsari work has 56 references, inline citations are not necessarily required, but are present anyway. The other issues of not mentioning RMDL are somewhat a non-issue. The article doesn't claim them as supporting RMDL, they're in the history section. Other !voters don't need to dive into those references, it's fairly clear that this article only cites one source. The nom is right about failure of GNG, and the whole article reeks of OR.

- I didn't say anything about the references (56 or not) in his publication? I noted that RMDL is not cited independently. The reason why I emphasized this is because people tend to defend articles by "but it is full of references"; but if they only reference prerequisites, not the notability of the article subject, one has to carefully check which wikirefs matter for judging GNG. This in particular applies for the link to Theano - this easily gives the false impression, RMDL would be in Theano. But it isn't. HelpUsStopSpam (talk) 19:50, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- I pruned all the generic "deep learning" references and further reading to make it a bit clearer, and to make the article more focused (no need to re-tell the story of deep learning). So if anyone get into this discussion at a later point, and is wondering what "other" references I talked about. HelpUsStopSpam (talk) 19:57, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete This article is primarily based on a new arxiv paper that is not yet published. I was unable to find any reliable sources about RMDL, much less independent RS.

- Note - this is not a fairy tale, but I do have my concerns. The Baharlu/Barani connection to Kara Koyunlu is easy to source.[21][22][23] The connection to Quli Qutb Mulk and Sultanate of Golconda is present in our article stating Qara Yusuf as an ancestor (but off the same bulletin), and is evidenced in some sources (which I'm less sure of their quality - but it does seem to repeat).[24][25][26] The Oudh State line seems connected to Golconda - but I'll admit I did not try to source that - and this particular connection seems tenuous (per our article - was Qutbshah's 4th cousin 2 times removed.....). So - at least parts of this article pass WP:V - so its not all a fairy tale. My concern, is WP:SYNTH - while there seems to be some sort of established connection to the Kara Koyunlu and Baharlu (at least for Golconda) - it is not clear anyone refers to the connection as a "dynasty". Absent a clear source that does, I'm leaning delete.Icewhiz (talk) 16:29, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- The Baharlu's and the Kara Koyunlu existed and those connections are verifiable as well, but there was simply no Baharlu dynasty. That's why this article, is a fairy tale (i.e. something that doesn't/didn't exist in reality). Unfortunately, there's just no WP:RS that makes mention of a so-called "Baharlu dynasty". - LouisAragon (talk) 22:50, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment -- This is a horrid article without appropriate links, but Oudh State contains some material linking its dynasty with Kara Koyunlu. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:13, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- Weak delete - My reading of sources found at google books, the Baharlu/Barani tribe tribe is an interesting and encyclopedic subject. But I don't see that it should be called a dynasty in wikipedia's voice. It is a dynasty in the sense that something like royalark means it to be. That is, the ruling family came from this tribe and held this name. But a wikipedia article about this group should be about the tribe. The article List of rulers of Kara Koyunlu could do better to trace the relationships between the rulers, but I don't see any research that gives a single dynastic name to them. A redirect to List of rulers of Kara Koyunlu could be considered, I think, but I'm not sure it would be necessary/useful. Smmurphy(Talk) 02:40, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep The article, as is stood at the time of nomination, was poor and deserved the nomination. There are a number of references providing a history of Krishnan's activities in the Indian media. His activities prior to the long march did not gain as much media attention as the long march, but they are reported in reliable sources. Information about his student union activities are scarce on the web and may be stuck in a library well out of my reach. The fact that he motivated up to 50K farmers to march for 3 days in a protest speaks for his notability in India, he is the youngest member of the central committee of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and the joint secretary of the All India Kisan Sabha the largest farmers' organisation in the country. He is about to embark on an ambitious political campaign to relieve the plight of farmers in India, and if his plan comes together it will receive international media coverage. I have improved the article with some material but there is so much more available. I am not from India and do not have enough of an understanding of Indian politics to make worthy additions. Hopefully the creator of the article @Shagil Kannur: might be able to help out. While notability is borderline, I have added 7 new references and another editor has added an infobox with a photo.

Tibet’s first collection of poetry in prison
might be noteworthy if it were sourced, but honestly it reads like an arbitrary criterion created to artificially make it "the first". No mention of him having received any major awards or the like. Most of the broken-link sources look like interviews, which are useless for GNG, and honestly when popular media in countries with geopolitical disputes with China (or even with sizable numbers of sinophobic racists) interview people who may be loosely associated with the Tibetan Government in Exile, that's arguably even worse than them just being interviews.

Has written some books but fails WP:NAUTHOR by aa mile or so.Overall, he existed and might have been too proximate to have breath roughly the same composition of air......But, notability isn't inherited and he fails our notability criterion by a mile.
Deletion or a redirection to Meher baba sought, as at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kitty Davy, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eruch Jessawala and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Faredoon Driver, which dealt with very similar articles.

Having looked into the publishing house and the book written about Donkin a bit more, I noted the following: "Oceanic Publishing is a self-publishing venture created primarily for book publishing", as above; but, moreover, "Author Bob Mossman, a retired Canadian journalist, has been a follower of Meher Baba since 1967." per [43]. That's more than enough for me to doubt the reliability and independence of Mossman as a source.

Your first link does not work.The first link mentions Donkin as an author in a bibliography-list.- The one mentioned in the second link mentions Donkin in the trivial-est of manners.Both of them them are again hits as author in a long list of Meher-baba related bibliography.
- I've no idea about whether you mean every author mentioned in the list passes our notability guideline.
- As to the 3rd and 4th link, Meher House Publications isn't anything close to a reliable publisher, given that it's run by a trust of Meher Baba and has a (sort of) self-proclaimed goal to publish anything and everything related to Meher Baba.
- Consequently, that does lend precise nothing to establishment of notability.
- The last book,which do have a lengthy piece on him, is from the semi-official biographical hagiography of Meher Baba. (See Bhau's entry at WP).Common sense is that such books will cover a lot of trivial characters related to MeherBaba in grandest detail.

In this case, I see both fails by a mile. Also note, the standard set for sources to support claims within an article is a lower standard than that for sources to establish WP:N. My comments are concerned with sources used to establish notability above. And I don't think the provided sources meet the criteria for establishing notability. The article has existed for over 5 full years without ever having any better sources added so I don't think we should keep it any longer. --Saqib (talk) 07:03, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

The result was move (draftify) to Draft:Orthodox Presbyterian Church of Korea. There was a rough consensus that while the notability of the subject of the article could not be established, its parent organisation probably is notable. 59.149.124.29 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) requested that the content of this article be preserved in a draft so that it could eventually be incorporated into an article on that parent organisation.

What is more problematic is that we no longer have an article on Orthodox Presbyterian Church of Korea, whose speedy deletion ought not to have happened. If this is (as it sounds) a denomination, its AFD ought to have been allowed to run its course. I know nothing of the subject, so am not asking for DRV, but someone should.

Only the Daily World Religious News ones (#8 & #9 currently) appear to be on-topic and contribute to notability. #1 and #7 are just official websites of the parent organisation and the school. #3 Kukmin Daily isn't about this school at all and doesn't even contain the word "Presbyterian"; #2 Kookje Daily News and #6 Hankyoreh are WP:ROUTINE one-line events announcements, #4 Naver Knowledge In is WP:SOCIALMEDIA (the Korean equivalent of Yahoo Answers). Searching on the exact Korean name in Naver News gets only four hits, and ~900 in Google at large. Leaving off the word "Korea" (the first two Unicode codepoints in the Korean name) gets many more hits but I think those are almost all about another school (ko:장로회신학대학교) established in 1901. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 03:45, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Keep- This article claims Park Geun-hye attended the school for a few months. To me, that strikes me as a fairly meaningful indication that the seminary is suitable for an article. I understand that this justification is, in a sense, a version of inherited. But the question really is, "Is this a real tertiary institution? To me, having faculty and alumni(?) of substance seems as good of an indicator as accreditation (which we haven't found indication of). Smmurphy(Talk) 15:11, 5 June 2018 (UTC)- I assume you're referring to this passage in the article you linked:
박 대통령은 1981년 9월 서울 광진구 장로회신학대학교 대학원에 입학, 11월까지 다녔다
(emphasis mine). Rough translation:President Park entered the graduate school of the Presbyterian University Theological Seminary in Gwangjin District, Seoul in September 1981, and attended until November
. That's referring to a different, much older school (ko:장로회신학대학교), which I also mentioned above in my comment as comprising most of the Google Hits on the name. The school we're discussing in this AfD is in Gangnam District, Seoul and was founded in 2012. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 04:25, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

- Ah, you are right. Hmm, I'm not sure, and have struck my !vote. Smmurphy(Talk) 15:59, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Draftify for potential merge Due to the language barrier, some commenters above made assumptions of good faith or accidental misinterpretations of sources, like that this school is 105 years old, that the newspapers cited in the article actually discuss this school, or that an ex-president attended. But in reality this is a six-year-old school with no evidence of notable alumni or faculty, and little media coverage. However I agree with User:Peterkingiron that the notability of the parent organisation Orthodox Presbyterian Church of Korea should be investigated more thoroughly. When I have time in the next few weeks I'll look for Korean-language sources, and if that denomination is actually notable, I'll draft an article about the denomination and merge the some of the content from the draft about the seminary there. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 04:25, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

- I would support the last suggestion. 59.149.124.29 needs to sign in when responding, so that there is a page where the text can be userified. If Orthodox Presbyterian Church of Korea is indeed a denomination, not merely a local church, its article should be reinstated. My view is that denominations (unless they only have one congregation) are notable. A short section on the denominational seminary can then be added to that; and the article converted to a redirect to that. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:22, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Draft as suggested above to allow the potential merger with the denomination which seems a valid outcome, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 17:40, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
- Draftify at Draft:Orthodox Presbyterian Church of Korea#Korea Presbyterian Theological Seminary. Better to have the parent an sub organizations as a single draft to increase breadth of notability.

"What kind of whacko does write a biography -etc" refers to a fellow Wikipedian, I see accusations of "vested interests", expressed suspicion of myself as "um" (evidently Dazed's sock) and tons of bad faith, let alone the bias expressed against the topic.

- Sources, please.....~ Winged BladesGodric 02:37, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- Here's what the page says about the prayer: "The prayer is one of three frequently recited prayers by followers at gatherings, long with the Prayer of Repentance and the Beloved God Prayer. The three prayers are recited morning and evening at Meher Baba's samadhi in Ahmednagar, India at 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. each day, followed by devotional songs which compose Baba's aarti." If this is true, the prayer is pretty notable. Wouldn't it have been kinder of the nominator to recognize when something is probably notable, and before nominating it for outright removal would think, maybe once in awhile, of putting a "citations needed" tag on the page instead?

- Randy--I don't doubt that is false but that isn't an indicator of notability.Secondary-sources covering the subject in a non-trivial manner, are.~ Winged BladesGodric 03:05, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
- Well secondary sources can't be found as this group of people keep their beliefs to themselves as a discipline. It will take future developments to get to where some independent theologians or academics make papers about them. If this means that it HAS to be deleted, it is pretty much undefensible (no nukes needed, all it takes is a simple stab in the back). Therein lies the kindness and understanding on behalf of the nominator. And I am not saying this as in "oh we poor ones, etc", neither do I wish to act as a lawyer for them. If I sound lawyer-ish, it is on behalf of Wikipedia as an informative medium (no, not just ANY info, and no, I do not think that I am saving the day for Wikipedia on this). There has been an effort to include here some basic information in a NPOV way about this group. Dazedbtb has done a good job in this, although maybe he has gone too far in some areas in the past. If all we must see is black-or-white, all information relevant to the Meher Baba movement will be obliterated, with LOSS from the side of Wikipedia, rather than any real gain of "spam-cleaning". Don't expect me please to vote "keep" here or in other prayers or in the Parvardigar (film), unless I see that what is being proposed is really central to the philosophy of Meher Baba, like his very few books and very few terms and concepts we have. Thank you. Hoverfish Talk 06:23, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

- Keep and add a "sources needed " tag, a very important prayer to the subject and of Wikipedia's collection on this fellow. Wikipedia is built of individual collections of topics, almost each one most likely the best neutral encyclopedic coverage of that particular topic in existence. Even while asking for sourced coverage the nominator admits notability likely exists, because it is obvious this topic is extremely well-covered and historically discussed. Just not by the right people, who get to choose who is notable and who isn't. Meher Baba is notable, that's been decided, and this is one of his main prayers (and no, I am not a disciple, acquaintance, or reader of his material, and have never said, read, or chanted one of his prayers), and the main prayers of a long-time worshipped religious figure should find exception and be among the things from which notability can be inherited. Randy Kryn (talk) 21:31, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
- I've never admitted anything of that sort.notability must be demonstrated or else the article must be purged......As simple as that.~ Winged BladesGodric 14:32, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Randy Kryn: - "and the main prayers of a long-time worshipped religious figure should find exception and be among the things from which notability can be inherited" is a very significant thing to be claiming and certainly isn't something either you, or even everyone in this AfD could decide - it would need to be discussed specifically as a notability change.

- Merge – While rare, this is not unheard of in the literature. For a similar case which does have notability on its own, see Armin Meiwes. The content here doesn't appear to rise to that level of notability, but could be merged somewhere. A search for anthropophagous paraphilia at Google books and Scholar both turn up serious references. List of paraphilias currently lists Anthropophagy but that entry is currently piped to Cannibalism, although the latter topic is far more than just the paraphilic practice, which the Cannibalism article barely discusses. If vorarephilia has its own article, then surely Anthrophagy could. But if no one volunteers to write it, the content of Mao Sugiyama could be merged to Cannibalism and the title become a redirect to a section there. Mathglot (talk) 21:59, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

- As noted above, this is essentially the same as Category:Ironic and humorous awards (and if inclusion there can be verified, then this list does not present an issue). These entries do share the common, defining characteristic of recognizing poor performance, failure, etc., in other words, the exact opposite of what is considered meritorious enough to award. Whether "ironic" is the clearest descriptive word to unify these (the dictionary would suggest so), it seems clear that they are of the same character and all else seems to me mere semantics. How else would we index these? I'd expect some more substantive discussion on these point beyond the WP:VAGUEWAVEs above before we'd consider deleting this list or the category. postdlf (talk) 21:05, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

- Keep. Despite claims to the contrary, the list is not indiscriminate and has clear inclusion criteria. Inclusion does not rely on the opinion of the person adding items as to whether they are ironic/mcoking. The criterion is that they are intended to be ironic/mcoking by the awarding body. The number of such awards does not seem to be so large that the list cannot be exhaustive. If that should happen, we can always limit the inclusion criteria to blue links only. SpinningSpark 00:17, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep The fact that an award is intended to mock the recipient is one of the most basic factual claims that can be made about that award. It's first-sentence-of-lead-paragraph material. (For example, "The Golden Raspberry Awards (also known in short terms as Razzies and Razzie Awards) is a mock award in recognition of the worst in film.") As such, it doesn't really need footnoting in this list, as long as each item has a blue link. The title might need revision, but it's serviceable for now. XOR'easter (talk) 21:41, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep per previous "Keep" votes. A useful and welcome list of amusing awards which does not duplicate listings within categories but, quite the opposite, sorts the awards under genres and specifications as well as providing descriptions of each award. None of that can be expected from categories which commingle all entries alphabetically. Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:48, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep A solo exhibition in the Museum für Islamische Kunst is a form of exceptionally rare and serious critical attention that would trump almost any coverage in independent, reliable sources. Cases like this are why WP:ARTISTS exists. There are sufficient sources to sustain an article. The nomination for deletion hinges on the assertion that the subject works for the publisher of a book that is used as the only source. Presumably, that is Aatifi – News from Afghanistan, published by Kerber verlag. There are two problems with that: 1) there are more sources cited under Bibliography (albeit not all as inline sources, but that is not a requirement). 2) I see no evidence that Aatifi is employed by Kerber. In fact the lists of all their employees does not mention Aatafi. The assertion made by the nominator appears to be factually incorrect. Vexations (talk) 18:42, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

- Weak keep - Article passes core content policies (V/NPOV/NOR). Wyckoff's career has been covered in depth in papers from his home states of Pennsylvania and Maryland, and newspapers.com gives 200+ articles which mention him.[54] Their was some national coverage of his 1982 mayoral campaign, but that was due to a human interest angle as there was a significant write-in campaign for a dog in the race. From the rest, there is a passing coverage in The Philadelphia Inquirer Pittsburgh Post-Gazette The Pittsburgh Press, but most of the coverage is in local Cumberland papers. Smmurphy(Talk) 15:00, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Being able to nominally verify that a mayor existed is neither an automatic NPOL pass in and of itself, nor an automatic exemption from having to pass NPOL just because the article is technically V/NPOV/NOR. In cities this size, the test is the ability to reference the article over NPOL #2 — which requires considerably more than just a small handful of the local coverage that every mayor of everywhere could always show. And Cumberland is so close to Pittsburgh that it's either inside or only just barely outside the local coverage range of most of Pittsburgh's television and radio stations, so the fact that a bit of coverage can be found in Pittsburgh media is not strong evidence of expanded extra-local notability in and of itself. He'd probably qualify to have an article if it were referenced much better than this, but the fact that the content is technically VNPOVNOR is not in and of itself enough to exempt him from having to have a stronger notability claim, and better sourcing for it, than just "he existed as a mayor, one local source and two obituaries, the end". Bearcat (talk) 18:23, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
- Just noting that Cumberland, Maryland is 100 miles from Pittsburgh. The Pittsburgh Media Market includes Garrett County, Maryland but not quite neighboring Allegany County, Maryland, where Cumberland is located. That said, your point stands, if one thinks that local coverage should be (heavilly?) discounted, Pittsburgh papers could be considered local. All the more because Wyckoff's father was a leading Pittsburgher as well. Smmurphy(Talk) 19:37, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
- I'm not sure local coverage should be discounted for being local, but if there's a bunch of local coverage and little to no coverage outside of the area, and we're taking a very zoomed out look at the article (ie not discussing specific sources), I think an assumption could be made regarding coverage that is only WP:MILL. Looking specifically at this article, it's currently sourced by two obituaries, and the actual non-aggregated sources I can find discuss him in passing of the mayor of a town whose mill is closing, golf tournament agate from Pittsburgh, the and the dog write-in votes story. Just not enough here, and doesn't get a pass for being mayor. SportingFlyer talk 04:53, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

- Keep WP:HEY I did a modest, expand, source. The obits to which the article was sourced made it clear that this dude who owned a steel company in the 1980s was notable. But I added stuff like an long profile of his life and mayoralty that ran in the Baltimore Sun, coverage of Cumberland Steel in the Washington Post, and coverage of him in a profile of the city that ran in the San Diego paper (I presume it was a wire service story,) commemorating Cumberland's bicentennial. Unsurprisingly, there is a great deal more available in news archives.E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:20, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

DeleteAired after the end of the television season and failed to win any awards. Whatever the claims of an 'all-star cast', the mentions are merely 'this aired' and 'these people starred in it' and 'here's a plot summary'. There's just not enough here to justify an article. Nate • (chatter) 05:41, 10 June 2018 (UTC)- Redirect to Airport (novel) This source says the material was based on this book, and was basically an attempt to bring Airport (the film) into a weekly television format. So it's at least notable for being that, but not much more. Nate • (chatter) 22:04, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep Should qualify under WP:NTV -
A dropped pilot which does go to air as a standalone television film or special [...] may, however, qualify for an article on that latter basis
, andan individual radio or television program is likely to be notable if it airs on a network of radio or television stations
. Hzh (talk) 16:21, 10 June 2018 (UTC)- Yes,
may qualify
being the operative term, following the necessity that "significant evidence that the pilot has notability for reasons beyond simple confirmation of its existence." No person is yet to provide any sources which demonstrate notability. As mentioned earlier, existing references are mere mentions of the basic plot and listings in TV guides - per NTV and NFILM that does not demonstrate notability -- Whats new?(talk) 05:45, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Yes,
- That sentence is about simple announcement of a planned pilot that may not be aired, and this one was aired as a TV film on a TV network, and it is therefore "likely" to be notable as noted in the guideline. There are many sources in books - [55][56][57]. Hzh (talk) 11:21, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- No, it states "A dropped pilot which does go to air as a standalone television film or special [...] may, however, qualify for an article on that latter basis which refers to "...significant evidence that the pilot has notability for reasons beyond simple confirmation of its existence." The book quotes you mentioned are again trivial mentions that something exists. The film/pilot did not win any awards, does not have a cult following, and is not noted in multiple reliable sources for anything meaningful that would establish notability here for it to hold its own article. -- Whats new?(talk) 23:53, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- That is a misreading. In a sentence, when two items (or groups of items) are mentioned, the "latter" refers to the second one mentioned, and that is "a standalone television film or special". That is, the notability is determined as television film or special that has been aired on a television network (which is considered likely to be notable). The line you mentioned clearly is about a "pilot in development". Hzh (talk) 08:33, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- The point is, there is still no establishment of notability. The mere existance of a TV pilot becoming a movie fails to do so, and all the references brought up are trivial mentions - not critical review, awards, cult status, etc. which is required to pass NFILM, NTV and indeed the GNG -- Whats new?(talk) 08:45, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- A show that is "likely" to notable and mentioned in books would mean notable. This is not counting the fact there would likely to be reviews, but these would be from a pre-internet era that made them hard to search for. Hzh (talk) 10:04, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- "Likely" according to what? WP:NFO is clear about requiring notability via reliable sources. The film does not meet any of the 8 criteria in NFO. The closest it gets to is "significant involvement...by a notable person" and even then it could be covered in their bio article, or as Mrschimpf suggested, at the novel's article. But there remains no verifiable, reliable sources to establish notability for this failed pilot in its own right. -- Whats new?(talk) 00:02, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- "Likely" is merely a reminder by WP:NTV that a show broadcast on a main network nationally would likely receive significant coverage in the press, which is especially true when there were fewer channels. It is simply harder to find sources for older shows because of the issue of archiving (something not archived on the internet does not mean they don't exist), or special subscription may be required to look for them. Hzh (talk) 10:11, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

- Strong Keep. Of course, it's noteworthy. A made-for-TV film with an all-star cast, broadcast in prime time on a major network and reviewed by TV critics in newspapers around the country, automatically qualifies for inclusion. TV films regularly pass notability guidelines without any questions and this entry should be no exception. Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:07, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
- Not per WP:NFO and WP:NTV. Extensive coverage in verifiable sources are needed. The film was not 'made-for-TV', it was a failed TV pilot which aired on its own, and it was not reviewed by notable critics in great detail, it was listed as 'something on TV that night' in newspaper TV listings at the time. It has not developed a cult following or the other requirements of NFO. NTV says "A dropped pilot which does go to air as a standalone television film...may...qualify" if there is significant evidence of notability for a standalone article. -- Whats new?(talk) 04:40, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
- A number of made-for-TV films were structured as pilots for potential TV series — some of those features were successful and served as the basis for a TV series — other features merely remained as stand-alone made-for-TV films.

- Wikipedia does not distinguish between "notable" and "non-notable" films. For the purposes of inclusion in Wikipedia, every film from around the world, whether made to be shown in movie theaters or not, is eligible for inclusion. Section header "External links" is expected to contain links to standard film sites, such as IMDb, American Film Institute (AFI), British Film Institute (BFI), Turner Classic Movies (TCMDb), AllMovie, TVGuide, Rotten Tomatoes, etc. References are also expected, of course, with one or two newspaper or magazine reviews being deemed sufficient for avoiding deletion. International Airport has links to IMDb, BFI and TCMDb as well as three cites, including two-and-a-half paragraphs of text in Chicago Tribune, published at the time of the film's premiere. Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:33, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
- That's simply not true. I suggest you read WP:NFILM: "To presume notability, reliable sources should have significant coverage." The external links to imdb, etc are user-generated sites which can't be used to establish notability. The "three cites" are not extensive coverage, they are TV listings detailing basic plot outlines, including the one you linked to. Further, in WP:NFO which mentions that "significant coverage is not always possible to find on the Internet, especially for older films", it lists 5 alternate criteria for such cases, and this film doesn't meet any of them:
- 1) It is widely distributed on a national network, but has not received full-length reviews by 2 or more nation critics
- 2) No evidence of historical notability
- 3) No awards
- 4) Not preserved in the national archive
- 5) Not taught in university or college
- It also fails the three "inclusionary criteria"
- 1) Not a unique accomplishment in cinema
- 2) Not a major part of a notable actor's career that would "clutter up the biography page"
- 3) America is a major film producing country
- This failed TV pilot turned TV movie is not notable by the outlined criteria for general notability or topical notability. -- Whats new?(talk) 07:58, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
- I am familiar with WP:NFILM and I interpret it to mean that International Airport has met the "reliable sources" qualification under "External links" — in addition to IMDb, which is appended to every film, no one questions the reliability of the BFI and TCMDb links and additional external links to AllMovie or TVGuide can be easily appended. Also, Chicago Tribune gave it a brief write-up, not simply a TV listing.
- Furthermore, if those "5 alternate criteria" were to be strictly applied, there would be no need to cherry-pick or single out International Airport for deletion nomination. Deletionists could run riot over the entire List of television films produced for American Broadcasting Company or all titles under Category:Television films by year, with 95 percent of all such titles nominated for deletion.
- Ultimately, the barn doors would be wide open. A strict application of the "three inclusionary criteria" would enable deletionists to set upon List of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer films, List of Warner Bros. films, etc and start to AfD each film which they felt was "Not a unique accomplishment in cinema". It would open a Pandora's Box (presumably that would not be one of the films nominated for departure from Wikipedia). Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:44, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

Recreation of an article previously deleted by PROD. Concern was that the subject Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTY having never played in a fully professional league or in a senior international fixture. This remains valid. Sir Sputnik (talk) 01:58, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete - still fails WP:NFOOTBALL having never played in a fully professional league or a senior international fixture and does not have enough significant coverage to pass WP:GNG. Kosack (talk) 04:56, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep I appreciate you have to boundaries for things but can we look at it from the point of view of a Preston fan; They have just signed a goalkeeper from a fellow Championship club and deserve to be able to read about him on Wikipedia, is that not what this website is for? He’s been named in full welsh squads, it’s not like he’s a jobbing semi-pro no mark. User: Hildreth gazzard talk 08.56, 10 June 2018 UTC
- Delete - as per nom and Kosack, still fails GNG and NFOOTBALL 21.colinthompson (talk) 17:55, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep Just found this https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44383006 . There are lot other recent media coverages relating to this. Farahpoems (talk) 18:35, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Transfer announcements are considered routine sport coverage and do not contribute to general notability. Sir Sputnik (talk) 18:53, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete or Draft I have no problems with a draft of the player, but at the moment he fails WP:NFOOTBALL having not played a professional game. Govvy (talk) 21:33, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 11:43, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - While I can understand the arguments put here for keep, at the moment it is clear that he fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Of course if he plays for Preston in a league match or gets a full cap with Wales this will change. As either of these seems possible within the next year or so so keeping as a draft article as suggested would seem a viable option. Dunarc (talk) 22:24, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Most likely a hoax (see the talk and [58]), but even if not it fails WP:NBIO and WP:ACADEMIC massively. Just google "Lutz Ebersdorf" -suspiria. Nardog (talk) 01:39, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete: concur with @Nardog -- does not reach threshold of notability even if not a hoax. Quis separabit? 02:21, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as a hoax and a movie promotional publicity stunt. The article can be recreated if the hoax itself becomes notable but should not pose as a legitimate BLP. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:33, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Now that I think about it, perhaps we should redirect it to Suspiria (2018 film) once it's deleted. Nardog (talk) 13:39, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete Also BLP violating, no references whatsoever for a (claimed) living person. ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 12:45, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete: I believe this is a hoax and a stunt, and, quite honestly, the lack of sourcing (and a great deal of it coming from the studio itself), as a BLP matter, is more than enough to push this one into a firm delete. If this fellow actually exists, and I doubt it, where's his Abschlussarbeit? Where's his website? A Google link, at least, to his office? None of these items can be found. —Javert2113 (Let's chat!) 17:08, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Addendum: I'd be open to a re-direct to the film, too, aye. —Javert2113 (Let's chat!) 17:09, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Suspiria (2018 film). If Ebersdorf is later determined to be a real person, and not just Tilda Swinton in heavy makeup, the article can be re-created. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 18:01, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
Fine by me. Maybe I should have done that boldly rather than this AfD... Nardog (talk) 20:20, 10 June 2018 (UTC)- I am now leaning towards delete again because the chances of the article meeting the notability/verifiability threshold are so low regardless of whether he turns out to be a real person. I've revised Suspiria (2018 film) so that it is ready to be redirected to from the page in discussion. Nardog (talk) 14:58, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as unsourced biography and probable hoax. Thanks to Nardog for initiating this AFD. I should have done so myself but was busy with other things. MartinPoulter (talk) 11:08, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: Reading the above article, Ebersdorf is definitely "real", but may be Tilda Swinton. Maybe a similar case to Roderick James? Test No 1 (talk) 18:07, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- I think that if Ebersdorf is indeed Swinton, we probably should redirect to the Swinton page. We don't really have enough info at present though... In addition, there are no references to Ebersdorf in Swinton's page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Test No 1 (talk • contribs) 18:10, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

- Speedy delete This shows everything that is wrong with our current system. 1-we do not speedy delete articles with only IMDB as a source. This is exhibit A on why we should burn and destroy every article sourced only to IMDb with extreme prejudice. 2-we need better control over creating articles. 3-hoaxes like this should never make it to main space. We need to make it so every article needs to go through the AfC process.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:23, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Reply Johnpacklambert, this AfD debate is not the place for meta policy discussions, and you know it. Please restrain yourself. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:43, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Some policies need to be attacked at any and all turns, and the current wild-west approach to article creation and the over-reliance on the clearly unreliable IMDb are two such things that need to be attacked at every turn.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:54, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- IMO, the article should be deleted for the above reasons, as well as lack of notability, at least until Suspiria comes out. Test No 1 (talk) 12:37, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

- @Richard3120 -- Thanks for reprinting my comment, by which I still stand. Cynthia Plaster Caster "who creates plaster casts of famous persons' breasts and erect penises" is (at least nominally, IMHO) is also an "artist" by today's standards anyway so it seems to me that it is kind of like comparing apples and oranges.

- Comment The current article doesn't actually say why the subject is notable. Please expand it to explain that and it may have a chance of not being deleted.Accesscrawl (talk) 11:15, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Weak keep This is an odd one, someone who is only famous for being a groupie (and a reference in a song). But as there appear to be a number of reliable sources on her, she probably just about pass WP:BASIC. Hzh (talk) 16:39, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep "Can a groupie ever merit an article in an encyclopaedia?" Yes, as long as there are reliable and verifiable sources about the individual to establish notability. That standard is met. Alansohn (talk) 18:17, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep Multiple reliable sources independent of the subject: it passes GNG. There are tons of bios in here about people whose lives don't inspire or even interest me, but bio subjects don't need to interest anybody here if they inspired enough interest in WP:RS to pass GNG. HouseOfChange (talk) 11:58, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - enough coverage by reliable and independent sources to meet the general notability guidelines in my opinion. Million_Moments (talk) 19:44, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. The ten inline cites are sufficient to indicate notability and those cites, including the obituaries, describe how earned her own specialized claim to fame. Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:34, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
