The WP:SPA author is clearly closely associated with the subject because she uploaded more than 50 of his photos on Wikimedia, including his business license in China. Links to many of these photos were included in the article as references, which I have since removed. The remaining links do not appear reliable. As far as I can tell, Ref 1, 2, and 4 do not mention him at all. Ref 5 and 6 are from YouTube, 9 and 14 are from YouKu (Chinese YouTube), the others are from Google Album, music aggregator sites, and non-independent sites (e.g. saqisax.com). Fails WP:GNG. Plus, the article is written largely in the future tense ("he will" appears ~20 times), not sure if this is poor English or WP:CRYSTAL but in either case doesn't meet the standard required for an encyclopedic entry.

- I had a hard time trying to get editors to fix it so if no one can be bothered to fix it then it may as well be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.100.131.115 (talk) 18:25, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. The nominator describes the situation very well (I, too, started trying to fix it and got through only the first two sections). – Athaenara ✉ 19:50, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- I should note that I had initially tagged it for speedy deletion per {{db-g11}} (diff). When another editor removed the tag a couple of hours later I thought, why not see if it can be helped, give it a try. The problem is that it is not and never was a neutral and well-sourced encyclopedia article (not a euphemism) but more like a page on facebook or some other social website where anybody can publicize anything. – Athaenara ✉ 23:20, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

The result was merge to Jeanne Calment. There is a clear consensus against keeping this article. Unfortunately that is where the consensus seems to end. In such cases my default is WP:ATD. Ad Orientem (talk) 00:18, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

Is this person notable in any way that has nothing to do with the recent rumor that Jeanne Calment's longevity might be fake?? Georgia guy (talk) 21:51, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete or Merge Yvonne is only notable as being the daughter of Jeanne and possibly (according to the theory) the person who lived under her mother's identity in later life. It's frankly silly to open a new article for her. Strong support for delete, and merge any extra information about Yvonne back into the original article on Jeanne Calment (although I suspect there's no new information here). Oska (talk) 23:04, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge. Not only is this person not independently notable outside of a rumor, but nearly all of this information is already in the Jeanne Calment article. CCS81 (talk) 23:11, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Either we have Jeanne Calment 1875-1997 and Yvonne Calment 1898-1934, or Jeanne Calment 1875-1934 and Yvonne Calment 1898-1997. In both cases it's worth a single page, in the first case Jeanne Calment for a record lifespan, in the second case Yvonne Calment for a notorious deception. There is no consensus about the truth and many serious people currently have no definite opinion about the case. Splitting into two pages would only result in more mess. No merge needed, there was already relevant information about young Yvonne Calment in Jeanne Calment's page.--Alpha carinae (talk) 03:01, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Yvonne has absolutely no notability on her own. Any controversies about her identity belongs to the Jeanne Calment article where the info is already present. A simple redirect page is perfectly adequate. --McSly (talk) 03:17, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete there is no indepdent notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:42, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep IMO a merge risks adding to the confusion. Yvonne Calment may be the person commonly known as "Jeanne Calment", but for now the evidence is circumstantial.--Davidcpearce (talk) 10:23, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete – Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. The only mentions of Yvonne Calment in sources are totally consequential of her mother's notability. Material relevant to Yvonne is fully covered in Jeanne's article. No reason for a content fork. — JFG talk 11:20, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:NOTINHERITED and WP:ONEEVENT. Yvonne is virtually unknown outside of the context of her mother and we already have enough information in her mother's article which talks about her. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 18:45, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge because this title should be a redirect to Jeanne's page. If Yvonne went by Jeanne then we follow WP:COMMONNAME. There is pretty strong evidence that the daughter took the mother's identity, and I appreciate the idea of splitting out a page to provide more information along that theory without upsetting the sensabilities of the true believers in the woman who claimed to live three years longer than any other human in recorded history. Legacypac (talk) 20:05, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge back to Jeanne Calment. Either the daughter is known only because of the mother or they are the same person. There is no independent notability and there isn't anything new in this article, but the only reason not to delete this outright is the redirect is helpful to readers who have read the daughter's name. Jonathunder (talk) 20:18, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete I could understand the value of a separate page about the validation of Mme Calment's age and identity which would allow the topic to be documented at more length without putting undue weight about it in the Jeanne Calment page. However, this page will not serve that purpose and Yvonne Calment does not have notability independently of her mother. There is nothing significant here that could be merged back into Jeanne Calment. Weburbia (talk) 21:37, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete No notability shown per above; fringe theories don't count. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 11:44, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge content to Jeanne Calment. No independent notability. Pawnkingthree (talk) 14:17, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

- Merge. Needed information for readers considering coverage, but it does not pass WP:BIO1E. ―Matthew J. Long -Talk-☖ 22:59, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge. This can be a part of "Jeanne Calment" Alex-h (talk) 09:06, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete it is detrimental to have a content fork for an invividual with no independent notability. - LukeSurl t c 13:00, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge / redirect to Jeanne Calment. This is a classic WP:BIO1E and hence merging is the correct action in this case. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:52, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
- Merge This woman is not significant enough to have her own article. The idea that she usurped her mother's identity is ridiculous. All information on her can be found in her mother's article. If it isn't, it should be added. Scorpions13256 (talk) 23:28, 9 February 2019 (UTC)

- Keep - for the exact same reasons in the other mainline rail station AfD started by the same nom. WP consensus wisely decided long ago that all rail stations are notable. This ensures thousands of editors don't waste there time and energy fleshing out and debating the retention of articles on the tens of thousands of stations when editors efforts are much better spent on creating new articles and improving existing ones. For this and most stations, it's impossible for in depth coverage like extensive government reports and budgets to not exist.Oakshade (talk) 23:09, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- "[I]t's impossible for in depth coverage like extensive government reports and budgets to not exist." This argument is based on faith, rather than demonstrable evidence. It is a self-sealing argument, a logical fallacy. Rhadow (talk) 23:33, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete He was not listed on the roster for the Israeli team for the main WBC tournament[1] and doesn't appear to meet any other criteria of WP:NBASEBALL.

- You shouldn't expect readily available news articles in the Roman alphabet as sources for a Chinese architect born in 1935.

- No, I think I ran through the WP:BEFORE checklist completely, save the foreign versions. It does not appear to have independent notability, and it appears to be used promotionally. Were the self-published material removed, there would be nothing that isn’t already (rightly) in other articles, by the look of it.

- First, the main article is plenty big as it stands and splitting off items has been a benefit to it. Next, as Moxy has pointed out, there is info available to expand it. Finally, there is nothing about the article as it stands that is promotional. MarnetteD|Talk 07:43, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- Perhaps @Moxy: could give some examples of encyclopedic content that her(IMS) searches have disclosed?
- I would say that self-published content is generally promotional, gaining far more from Wiki that it bring to Wiki, and I do not see Champion’s book as an exception. Do you? Qwirkle (talk) 08:01, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- The argument that the main article is too big assumes that this particular building merits significant bulky coverage that would overwhelm the main article. That is not the case. Just because one author has produced a work of love covering every building and open area on the site does not mean that each deserves their own articles. It is a perfect example of the tendency of Wikipedia to give inordinate attention to obscure and trivial detail. Alcatraz is a notable and noteworthy topic. There had better be some really special independent notability for Building Number Whatever on the site to have to have a standalone article rather than being adequately addressed with a single sentence or two in the main article, and I don't see it. (Basically, is the fact that it is on Alcatraz incidental to it being notable? If not, then it is not independently notable.) Agricolae (talk) 19:12, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

- How does removing this information help our readers? There is nothing egregious about the article.... Wikipedia:Does deletion help?.
- First, I’d disagree there is
nothing egregious about this article
, unless you are contending that most Wiki articles are about subjects without independent notability sourced to self-published work. - How does this article harm the reader? Foremost, it misrepresents the importance of something. Wikipedia should reflect informed scholarship about what is notable, not create it. This building has no notability outside of the prison.
- Also, it increases the volume of words a reader must chew through without increasing the amount of information the reader receives. If there is nothing significant here that isn’t, or shouldn’t be, in one of the potential parent articles, duplication of the same facts simply wastes reader’s time.

- With regards to notability, I find only passing mentions in scholarly sources and I did not look at Encyclopedia of Erotic Literature (page 1189) or Women's studies encyclopedia (page 1442) which are cited at Utopian and dystopian fiction and look promising. I did look (on Google Books) at To Write Like a Woman (around page 130 or 140) cited at Single-gender world and it is enough for a keep !vote from me (when we also take into account other references below), provided that it is reliable (I don't know myself). I am neutral on what the redirect target should be. wumbolo ^^^ 22:09, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment the term "lesbian utopia" most frequently is used in context of discussions of Lesbian Separatism[1][2][3][4] (which redirects to Feminist separatism. It seems like the discussion here is mostly about fictional accounts, and biological research. I think the article title itself (e.g. Lesbian utopia) should be redirected to Lesbian Separatism, not to Single-gender_world#Female-only_worlds. The fiction could be merged into Single-gender_world#Female-only_worlds. Where would the biological research go? --Theredproject (talk) 17:13, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
- Nowhere. The mouse already has an article at Kaguya (mouse), while the cloning is probably already covered in an article about cloning. wumbolo ^^^ 17:41, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Undecided at present. At first blush, my instinct would have been to vote to redirect to Lesbian separatism, but based on the current content of the two, Single-gender world#Female-only worlds seems a better match. However, current content shouldn't be decisive. So far, I find Theredproject's argument most convincing, as far as the title, the fiction content, as well as their question about the research. Mathglot (talk) 06:00, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
- The easy suggestion here would be to Delete wholesale, since the subject lacks adequate independent notability. This is an attempt to upgrade a common expression in feminist and lesbian writings into a widely used, stand-alone term. (The attempt is evident even in the sourcing, where it is made explicit that the sources indicate "usage" of the term!) Nonetheless, and since it seems there may be some text worth preserving, such text should be Merged into the respective articles, as above, with a Redirect graciously in place of the contested article. -The Gnome (talk) 21:05, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
- Merge to Single-gender_world#Female-only_worlds or Utopian_and_dystopian_fiction#Feminist_utopias. On the one hand, there does seem to be enough discussion of lesbian utopias in scholarly sources to potentially support an article, contrary to the arguments of other users. On the other hand, the sources seem to discuss them as a subset of feminist utopias, which have their own features but are best understood in that context. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 05:18, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. Actors are not handed an automatic free pass over WP:NACTOR just because they've had acting roles — by definition, every actor who exists at all would always get that pass, because having acting roles is what makes a person an actor. Rather, the notability test for an actor is the reception of reliable source attention as a result of his having acting roles, such as his performances getting singled out for dedicated attention in the film or television reviews, his winning or getting nominated for major acting awards, and/or entertainment journalists actually writing news articles about him.

This article has been unsourced apparently since its creation in 2004. It claims that fundamental patterns are part of design patterns, but Software design pattern makes no reference to them. I can’t find any reliable sources to support this article, but if ‘fundamental pattern’ is really a valid term, perhaps this should be merged into Software design pattern.

- Comment: it is difficult to distinguish between the term "fundamental design pattern" being used in sources according to its definition in this article, and sources using this phrase without that meaning (i.e. "The fundamental design pattern of this system is..."). Most of the sources I found use the latter, not the former. One exception (there may be more): Agerbo and Cornils 1998 (not cited in article, usage suspect).

Non-notable person, mentions are just in passing rather than about him. (Other user who also recommended deletion notes: WP:INHERIT from two people he works with. Removing the two celebrities mentioned (and a recent current event not directly effecting the subject) I don't think he has enough notability for his own wp page.)

This subject does not meet WP:BASIC. Source searches are providing very little coverage in independent, reliable sources, and no significant coverage in said sources appears to exist. The one independent source in the article only provides a three-sentence mention of the subject, which is not significant in depth, and the rest of the sources in the article are primary, which do not establish notability. Furthermore, from source searching, sources that provide quotations from the subject's speeches without almost any other information are primary in nature, and do not establish notability.

- Delete. The only coverage I can find independent of the religious organization he serves is this reprint of a church press release in the Cook Islands News. WP:BIO requires significant coverage from multiple independent sources. There's an argument that even the reprint doesn't rise to significance, since the Cook Islands have a population of 17,000—imagine trying to establish notability based on a single article in the local paper of Gretna, Louisiana.

- Delete as WP:NEO. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Searching finds mostly false positives. No prejudice against later recreation if someone finds actual sourcing to support a full article on the existence and use of the term. Bakazaka (talk) 03:06, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Delete: Searches show more positives for Global Market Day but even that would be a WP:DICDEF without strong sources. (In addition, the example information in this unreferenced article is at best imprecise: London_Stock_Exchange#Opening_times does not agree that "The London business day starts at 9am and ends at 5pm".) Lack of evidence that this term is notable. AllyD (talk) 18:58, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. This appears to be sourceable in quality book sources. Innovations in International and Cross-Cultural Management has substantial coverage of the topic over several pages. Using currency options more effectively also appears substantial, although I only have snippet view. Trading in the Global Currency Markets gives it a couple of paragraphs. Numerous other sources, while not in-depth, show that the concept is a common term-of-art in the sector. SpinningSpark 01:36, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- Comment thanks for tracking these down. The first looks like a substantial ref but the others are passing refs. As I said in my nomination I imagine the term exists but even seeing these refs does not leave me convinced the topic is notable enough for an article. Mccapra (talk) 06:57, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- @Mccapra: I don't agree that Trading in the Global Currency Markets is a passing mention. It talks about New York being the end of the global day and gives an historical reason; California failed in the 1980s to fill the gap between New York and Tokyo. This is a fact that could sensibly be added to the article. The rest of the section is discussing expected level of activity in different parts of the global day, so still on the same topic. It starts on page 117 and finishes on page 119, admittedly, the middle page is mostly charts, but it is still more than a trivial passing mention. I also found this paper "Time Scales and Organizational Theory" which is behind a paywall and I wouldn't bother the library to get it unless the article was definitely going to be kept, but this snippet
- "Circadian rhythms are particularly visible in global financial markets (Figure 2B), where the pattern of activity repeats itself every 24 hours, but only over the work week (the period of validity). The global “day” begins in New Zealand, just west of the International Date Line …"

- Delete these happen all over the world, but it's not something that is really encyclopedic to me, as if expanded (which would be easy to do, with sources), it would exist simply as a directory of open studio events. There's really not much to say about open studios. Maybe this could be merged to something like cultural tourism?ThatMontrealIP (talk) 03:23, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- Merge to Open Studio as I actually think that a description of what an open studio is, and the history of this social formation is quite interesting, and worthy of an article.[1][2] The problem is that both articles are rife with promocruft. Neither Brighton Artists Open Houses nor Open Studios Cyprus are significant. There is also a page for Artists Open House. Bushwick Open Studios should prob have a page.[3][4][5][6] I think that Here are some existing pages Helfa gelf, Spring Fling Open Studios, Somerville Open Studios. Given that there are articles about specific open studio event, it seems logical that the phenomenon itself should have a page. --Theredproject (talk) 02:50, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support:Open Studio Events are a fundamentally new type of collective cultural event (new, as in 30 years old) that take place in many parts of many countries. Although they are a new type of event, that does not make them less worthy of inclusion. Open Studio Events do not equate with any other type of art event, and should therefore be entitled to their own Wikipedia page. Individual Open Studio Events vary significantly in their precise form but share overall objectives. Therefore, a page for Open Studio Event should be considered on a par with a page like Arts festival. Maybe there is a case for separate pages for "Open Studio Event" and "List of Open Studio Events". Note that many participants in an Open Studio Event are not an Open Studio, in that they are normally private work spaces that open only for the event.

- Data ownership (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This is original research by synthesis (WP:SYNTH). There is, broadly speaking, no erga omnes legal right of property or ownership in (generic) data in (almost) any jurisdiction. There are legal concepts that protect certain rights of certain people in certain data, such as privacy laws, copyright, trademarks, criminal law (e.g. as regards classified government information), etc., but this is not ownership in a legal sense. The article partially tells us so and partially conflates such rights with ownership.
There are sources that use "data ownership" in a completely different, technical rather than legal sense, e.g. to assign data in databases to certain persons or software programs, but that's not what the article is about (or maybe the "responsibilities" section is; difficult to tell). Finally, the article also tells us that there is a "philosophical concept" of data ownership, but doesn't tell us what this is or what the sources for it are.
The article is the creation of a student editor, who, it seems, simply threw together everything they could find in a search for "data ownership", without realizing that the sources they found pertain to wildly different concepts and domains of the social sciences (law, computer science, scientific ethics, etc) and do not add up to a single, unified notion of "data ownership" that the article suggests exists. An article that distinguishes between these concepts is imaginable (although perhaps dubiously notable), but would need a rewrite from scratch. Sandstein 13:47, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

is correct; I'm not sure whether the article can be saved by content reduction.

A standalone article seems entirely possible, or merge to Information privacy law for now. Bondegezou (talk) 11:05, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- See WP:GHITS. The problem is that there is no one definition of that concept. Or can you provide one, based on a reliable source? 11:56, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- See WP:BEFORE. From the very first of those 21,600 hits, I offer, "For databases, "ownership" and "use" are easily confused as both connote privileges ranging from read and query access to creation and modification rights. By usage rights, we mean the ability to access, create, standardize, and modify data as well as all intervening privileges. Usage, however, is not what is meant by ownership. We use ownership and the residual right of control to mean the right to determine these privileges for others." doi:10.1016/0167-9236(94)00042-4 There are problems with the article, but AfD is not clean-up. Bondegezou (talk) 20:46, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- So you're now talking about "data ownership" as a concept in programming applying to databases, which is something completely different than what the article is supposed to be about. This is not the topic at issue here. Sandstein 20:55, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- No. Data ownership is a rich concept that can be examined from multiple, socio-technical perspectives. The article at present focuses more on legal perspectives. As an associate professor in health informatics, I am drawn to a more technical literature, so that's what I found. Both the paper cited (literally the first of 21,600 hits) and the current article content are about the same thing. Bondegezou (talk) 10:41, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

- Delete per Sandstein's research. This article was the work of a single-user account, literally as a class assignment, and the nom's description of the result as an interdisciplinary word salad is accurate. Nothing here worth saving. --Lockley (talk) 04:34, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
- Being a class assignment is not a reason for deletion. It's far from being the best article on Wikipedia, but there's some OK material here, and AfD, as ever, is not clean-up. Bondegezou (talk) 10:41, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Data ownership is a rich topic that can be examined from multiple perspectives. One can talk about legal aspects, one talk about social aspects that feed into those legal aspects, one can talk about technical methods to deliver solutions to managing data ownership problems, one can talk about how technological developments create new issues. Technical and legal aspects are not completely different senses: they are different views on the same issue. Clearly an article on data ownership is possible, however good a start you think the current article is. Here's some materials to demonstrate WP:GNG is met:

- I don't contest that there are a lot of sources that include the string "data ownership", and that an article (or more likely several) is possible to reflect the wildly different perspectives that various fields have about this topic. But the rationale for deletion is that the current article is worse than having no article at all because it is incompentently written original research; any recreation would need to start from scratch. See WP:TNT. Sandstein 11:25, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
- The list above is not "sources that include the string "data ownership"". I have reviewed each of those articles. They are articles substantially about data ownership, as per GNG criteria. They do not "reflect [...] wildly different perspectives": they reflect complementary and consistent perspectives. Plenty of the current article is correct and well referenced. You did not previously claim WP:TNT. The current article does not reach a WP:TNT standard. TNT is for a page "beyond fixing". TNT notes that "Copyright violations and extensive cases of advocacy and undisclosed paid sock farms are frequently blown up." This isn't anything like those.
