  • Keep and improve. Subject of this article is notable. The article needs development not deletion. A simple Google News search finds citation sources including The Washington Post, Washington Classical Review, OperaWire, DC Theater Scene, Broadway World, DC Metro Theater Arts, Deutschlandfunk Kultur, B.Z. Berlin, Pletea magazine, Tagesspiegel, De Morgen, Giornale della Danza, and others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Netherzone (talkcontribs) Netherzone (talk) 02:07, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I don't really see a deletion rationale. No doubt there are sources in Russian, but now that she has made her debut in the US, there are plenty of English-language sources which can be added to the article (as the previous editor has noted). Eg the Washington Classical Review: "The sensation of WNO’s cast is Anna Nechaeva, who made an outstanding U.S. debut as Tatiana. The Russian soprano had all of the vocal qualities for the role, and she imbued the Act I Letter Aria with innocence, passion, and dreaminess. The power of the performance came just as much from her acting abilities, making the character both vulnerable and exalted. Towering strength came later in Act III, when she finally put Onegin in his place, singing with a more mature vocal presence." [1]. RebeccaGreen (talk) 15:57, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Notable singer. Geoffroi (talk) 17:07, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per WP:NEXIST as there is plenty of significant coverage in teliable sources such as Washington Classical Review, De Morgen, Broadway World, and others so she passes WP:BASIC Atlantic306 (talk) 20:45, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t see any significant coverage of her anywhere, mostly other writers’ blogs and publisher info, one convention notice, and two books she teamed up with Andre Norton on. It has been mentioned that some of her books were nominated for various awards, but no wins came about. I’m unfamiliar with her work so I don’t know how significant it is as far as qualifying for WP:AUTHOR goes. Posting to AfD in case anyone familiar with her or the genres can vouch for her and her works. LovelyLillith (talk) 22:15, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep on NPOINTS/NAUTHOR#3 grounds: I can't see sigcov of her either, but she's at ISFDB (which lists her award noms) and SFE and there's sufficient reviews of her work in aggregate including [2][3][4][5][6], plus Kirkus and PW. Quantity of reviews would make a couple of her books at least weakly pass NBOOK (though my preference in such cases is generally for such works to be redirected as Template:R from book and covered at subsections of the author article). No objection to redirection/merge of articles on her works lacking reasonable sourcing, nor trimming the catalogue or nuking the navbox. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 09:31, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep it’s a sizeable article and it seems like she’s quite prolific in her writing and publication. There is a decent fantasy subculture that doesn’t always get coverage in the MSM, but that doesn’t mean this author isn’t popular and well-known to a great number of people.

  • Delete It would be impossible to prove anything in this article, as there are no sources. ―Susmuffin Talk 07:18, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Nothing stated in the article constitutes an automatic pass of our notability standards for either politicians or political scientists — he has held no political office that passes WP:NPOL, and making a person a notable political scientist hinges on showing evidence of his notability as a political scientist and not just saying the words "one of the most notable political scientists". The matter of whether he qualifies for an article or not, accordingly, depends on reliably sourcing him over WP:GNG, not just stating that he exists — but there are no sources here, and there's no article in the German Wikipedia (where I'd expect a genuinely notable German political scientist to be covered) to check for other sourcing either.

This looks like an autobiography. It's been repeatedly placed in article space and repeatedly moved back to draft (once by me). The article creator seems determined to let it take its chance in mainspace, so it seems to be time to try to determine whether this person is sufficiently notable to have a page here. I don't think so: he gets a few hits on GNews, on sites such as DreadCentral and DarkVeins; and two verifiable hits on GBooks. Nowhere do I see the sort of in-depth coverage in reliable sources that would justify having a page about him, or indeed enable us to write one.

*Keep These were actual mistakes in trying to get the page up, and trying to get it into and out of draft, by no means was there an attempt to break any rules. I actually thought, I was following the proper process, so my apologies for this Justlettersandnumbers. It seems this is your main criteria to get rid of the Article. This Article is backed up by many verifiable sources, such as Yahoo News, Maxim magazine, and other sources that are all verifiable. The article also has connections to verifiable Wiki pages that already exist, as well as the Internet Movie Data Base. Not to mention that the subject matter contains World Renowned people, including Bret Hart, and Corey Feldman, that are involved with the subjects latest movie. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Barryjedmonton (talkcontribs) 22:50, 2 June 2019 (UTC) Barryjedmonton (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. No such user; talk page for this username redirects to Donairpizza9999. -- MelanieN (talk) 00:14, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

*Note. A previous (grouped) deletion discussion ended in delete at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/THINGS (1989) in 2009. I draftified a version of this despite the AfD because the subject's notability might well have increased in that interval. The creating editor has changed their user name after being asked whether they were connected with the subject. Espresso Addict (talk) 10:31, 3 June 2019 (UTC) [reply]

  • Note The reason the name change was put in, was because, that I am a big fan of his, and my username appears, as if I am connected with him, but I am not, and I did not want this to be any reason in determining the fate of a page about him. His first movie THINGS is my favorite film of all time, and I follow, and keep up with everything he does, since discovering the film over 22 years ago. His other films, I am not as fond of as THINGS, as nothing can compare to THINGS, and how the movie has changed my life. However, I still love his other films. I have copies of 2 other films he has made, and I am currently waiting for 2 more of his films to be released, so I can get my hands on the films. I am not connected with the subject in anyway, although I have met him on 2 separate occasions, at two theatrical Screenings of THINGS. I have also corresponded with him by e-mail about 7 years ago, and he answered many unanswered questions, I had about THINGS. He was nice to me, and took the time to correspond with me. I started the THINGS page, because the movie is notorious, and has a cult following of fans, (like myself) and is written about extensively in film books, and all across the internet, and a couple of years a few years ago, even got released in Japan. I felt that THINGS, being my favorite movie was deserving of a Wikipedia page. So that is why I started the article. If I was connected with him in anyway, I would have declared that I was connected with him, and I believe that it is not fair, if a fan takes up a similar user name of who he is a fan of, and then the subject gets blamed for being connected with the filmmaker, or even being the filmmaker himself, and this is seen as a strike against the person I am a huge fan of, so that is why I did change the name. It would be no different (as just an example) if my username was robertplantengland, and I was making a page about Led Zepplin, and was asked to declare if I was connected with Robert Plant, of Led Zeppelin, and changed the user name, because I did not want Wiki to think that I was connected with him, and affect a page about him. I use usernames that are similar to many things I am fans of. For instance, the Band WASP, I use Blackielawlesstexas, (Blackie Lawless is the Leader of the band WASP) Blackie sang alot about Texas in his songs. So on some sites I sign up too, I use that name. On other Sites, I use barryjedmonton, as the director lives in Edmonton, and I am a fan of his work. I use Metallicausa, (Metallica, being another of my favorite bands)

I use paulstanleynewyork, I use genesimmonsnewyork, as KISS is another one of my favorite bands. I use a few usernames around the net, for all kinds of things that I am a fan of. So, I find this not to be fair, that anybody here, would think that I am connected, or know Barry J Gillis personally, although I have reached out to him as a fan. I admire his work, and what he does, and this would be quite a shame, if the page was squashed, because a fan of the artist, took up a nickname that was similar to the artists name. Especially when I believe he is deserving of a Wiki page, and the page fits the definition of Wikipedia's Notability Rules. --Donairpizza9999 (talk) 14:03, 3 June 2019 (UTC) (Blocked for sockpuppetry. -- MelanieN (talk) 00:07, 10 June 2019 (UTC))[reply]

*keep I know Donairpizza9999 for a couple of years, as I am his room mate. I am not sure if my keep, has any weight or not in this, but I will say, I did say, I would help out, and do some research, on the director, and I will say, I found information, and links that he has been in the National Post in Canada, and CTV, News, CBC News, and other Canadian Newspapers, and TV. I added a few of them to the Article. I am in no way a fan of this filmmaker myself, as I don't like these kinds of movies, however I have to say that this is deserving of being on Wikipedia. I have seen many pages in the past, that don't have anywhere near the amount of backup or sources, that this director has. That's my two cents on this. Thank You. --Jasminhhhh (talk) 15:41, 3 June 2019 (UTC) Jasminhhhh (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. Blocked user. -- MelanieN (talk) 00:10, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

*Note I found this post by MichaelQSchmidt, and I believe that it is a very significant post, when concerning this Wiki Page. "I did find that WP:RS instructs reliable sources are from authors "generally regarded as trustworthy or authoritative in relation to the subject at hand", and "How reliable a source is depends on context". Guideline does not mandate that Wall Street Journal or Forbes review independent horror films, nor does it mandate that Film Threat, Fangoria, or Rue Morgue report on Barrack Obama. Horror genre experts reporting on a horror-genre subject quite specifically follow guideline."--Jasminhhhh (talk) 00:36, 4 June 2019 (UTC) I believe that MichaelQSchmidt's Post, sums up why, Barry J.

  • Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody without a conflict of interest can do better than this. What I'm getting from the sourcing is not strong evidence of notability-supporting coverage about him, but a cluster reference bomb of mostly primary sources and glancing namechecks of his existence; what I'm getting from the writing tone is "semi-advertorial attempt at self-promotion" rather than "encyclopedia article"; and what I'm getting from this discussion is that all but one of the keep votes above have come from single-purpose accounts with little to no prior edit history, including the article creator, the article creator's roommate and the article subject himself — but all of the comments, either above or on the article's talk page, which are signed "Barryjedmonton" were posted by Donairpizza, not by a user who is actually registered as "Barryjedmonton", so Donairpizza's claim to be unaffiliated with Barry Gillis is very obviously false.
    There are potentially valid notability claims here, but this is mostly not the referencing that turns a notability claim into a notability slam-dunk — and even if he does have a valid notability claim, the article still has to be written neutrally by somebody without a conflict of interest. We are not a place where Barry Gillis is entitled to write about himself for PR purposes, whether directly or by paying somebody to do it for him — we're an encyclopedia, where the content has to be written neutrally and independently by people who don't have a vested interest.

  • Comment I felt negatively toward it in agreement with the non-sockpuppet editors' comments above, but it is hard to see the wood for the trees in an article with so much crap prose and poor sources. So I have cleaned it up substantially. I could go further and remove the remaining presumably non-reliable sources. That would leave the sources of books that are supposed to mention him, and reliable web sites that are all about the single issue at the film festival. I haven't made a decision as to my vote yet. -Lopifalko (talk) 12:19, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I have removed the remaining non-reliable sources. Notability may rest on to what extent Gillis is mentioned in these books that are used as sources: They Came from Within: A History of Canadian Horror Cinema, The Psychotronic Video Guide To Film, and Cinema Sewer Volume 1: The Adults Only Guide to History's Sickest and Sexiest Movies!. Is it just a passing mention or is it significant? Considering there are so many fans of the man voting here, perhaps they have access to these books and can let us know? -Lopifalko (talk) 06:25, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete assuming the mention in the 3 book sources is a trivial mention; given that the mention in the 4 reliable sources regarding the film festival advertisement are not sustained coverage of him and are concerned with a single event (and the National Post article is a copy and paste of the CTV News article); and the 3 remaining sources don't add up to enough to satisfy WP:FILMMAKER. However I stripped this article back to its constituent parts and it should be available should anyone else wish to pick it up and add to it if new material comes to light. -Lopifalko (talk) 05:16, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

    • @NiTenIchiRyu: What is this about? sources, that is all. Your "nearly a dozen" in the German article is in fact 8. landstreicher-booking.de is certainly not an independent reliable source, the clue is in the name, "booking". thenationalstudent.com and italiamusicexport.com are not either. I don't know about indiemusic.fr. ruhrnachrichten.de and frankenpost.de are much better sources. Clash and Stern I have already mentioned. For the issue with interviews in otherwise independent reliable sources please see Common sourcing mistakes (notability), Interviews and No original research#Notes. -Lopifalko (talk) 05:16, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Lopifalko: Thanks for educating me. After 15 years of writing articles for Wikipedia, and over 2,000 articles in the German and over 300 articles in the English Wikipedia this is what I really need. Someone explaining me what "sources" are. I know that some of the sources in the article are not really adequate, but that Stern and Clash dedicate articles to the subject indicate it's notability. And yeah, some of the information on him is only available in the press text from his booking agency. What's the point of waiting til a press outlet copies this text to make it notable? --NiTen (talk) 05:49, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Surprisingly, even though the subject here is a county-level official in Louisiana, the creator was not Billy Hathorn — but that doesn't mean the principles of WP:NPOL change at all. People at this level of political office are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, but must clear NPOL #2 as the subject of significant and substantive press coverage that goes beyond just the purely expected mentions of his name in the local media. Of the five media hits here, however, three just glancingly mention Claudet's name in the process of being primarily about other people, while the other two are just routine election coverage — and besides those, the only other references here at all are primary source verification of raw vote totals. This is not how you demonstrate that a county-level official is notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Bearcat (talk) 12:21, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Advertorially-tinged article about a musician with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, and no strong reliable source coverage. The notability claims here are that an EP exists and that it has "seen some radio airtime" -- but "notable just because the music exists" requires at least two full albums on major labels, not one independent EP on Bandcamp, and "notable because radio airplay" requires a reliable source to verify that they got playlisted by a national radio network, not just generically unverifiable claims of "some radio airtime".

Originally proposed for deletion by Ravensfire with the reason: "Draft article exists already at Draft:Speed Records (record label), which is where this should be located, but I don't want to move to the draft with wrong caps.

  • Delete - the original draft (with correct caps) is in far better shape and is where work should focus. At best, this should be a redirect to the original draft. This article has seen some significant pushing, probably COI / UDP editing, but I think this latest draft is a good faith effort but needs to be pointed to the right article to develop.

  • Keep per WP:PRESERVE. We should have an article on the communist campaign of intimidatory executions in Poland in the period, and this would serve as an example, but we don't seem to have that at the moment. There is some coverage in History of Poland (1945–1989) but this is probably too fine a detail to merge there. So I am saying keep with a view to broadening it out into a more general article. The rationale that this execution is "one of several" has nothing to do with notability, that is an WP:OTHERSTUFF argument. This event is covered in Czasy Nowożytne, although it disagrees on the date of execution with the book source in the article (10 June against 10 July). SpinningSpark 11:50, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    @Spinningspark: - see Cursed soldiers which would be that article (the fighters of the WiN unit being executed in the picture being but one example). Icewhiz (talk) 12:03, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I would support a merge there, I just don't think we should remove it altogether. SpinningSpark 12:06, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Also Freedom and Independence (WiN - the anti-communist unit involved here), and Anti-communist resistance in Poland (1944–1946). The problem with the present article is that it is almost completely un-sourced (other than the lede - whose source is far off from great, to say the least) - much of it may be WP:OR - basically the main thing salvageable here is that the execution happened + the photograph.Icewhiz (talk) 12:10, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. There are sources covering this. 1) cited book by historian Marek Jan Chodakiewicz 2) from book by Polish historian pl:Arkadiusz Kołodziejczyk [10] "Trzecia egzekucja publiczna odbyła się 10 lipca na dębickim rynku, zostali tam powieszeni członkowie „oddziału leśnego” Jana Stefki („Mściciel”)." 3) few paragraphs of coverage in this academic article: [11] 4) local media covers events commemorating this, and a monument was unveiled: [12], [13], [14] since 2012 there's a yearly event (2012: "Od 4 lat, w rocznicę ostatniej publicznej egzekucji na dębickim Rynku przy pomniku „Żołnierzy Wyklętych” zapalane są znicze i składane kwiaty przez władze miejskie i przedstawicieli organizacji kombatanckich, samorządowych i mieszkańców miasta."). 5) the picture of the execution gets some coverage too, through I am not sure if it is independently notable. Regional museum had an exhibition for the photographer, mentions this event and the photo here: [15]. Overall, yes, this is a footnote event, but I think there's enough coverage in sources to make it notable. PS. I am surprised this doesn't have a pl wiki entry. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:45, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    The lack of a plwiki entry what a supporting indication for this nomination. The local coverage (debica.pl is the municipality site, radio/tv Rzeszow is from the closest larger city, muzeumwdebicy.pl is the municipality musuem) of commemoration events at the local square is not in-depth or significant. @Piotrus: - how much content is there in the books? (my estimation based on snippet view is a couple of paragraphs). How much is in the Polish language journal article? Passing WP:V is not sufficient for WP:NEVENT - we expect WP:INDEPTH coverage for notability. Icewhiz (talk) 05:23, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Short biographies of the three men executed and a few more details are available at: Szczygieł, R. (2014). Oddział Narodowych Sił Zbrojnych pod dowództwem Jana Stefki ps.„Mściciel” w latach 1945–1946 w świetle dokumentów UB. Folia Historica Cracoviensia, 20(1), 205-258. On the basis of that article, Grebosz may himself be encyclopedic. If anyone can confirm the quality of that journal (Folia Historica Cracoviensia), I'd be happy to expand the article to discuss the details from Szczygieł's article. As a note, that article discusses the violence these three were part of and expanding this article to include that information would significantly change the tone of this article. Smmurphy(Talk) 15:59, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Smmurphy: Folia Historica Cracoviensia is a very minor academic journal by a minor Polish university; the journal has no pl wiki article. It is indexed in Index Copernicus ([16]) which is not saying much. But it does not seem predatory, since while open access [17] states that there are no fees for review and publication. I cannot find much about the author, but he seems to have gotten a PhD from the same institution in 2016 ([18]) in the field of history and culture. So, minor historian/publication, but no red flags, I'd call the source reliable unless it makes any red flag claims. Hope that helps :) --05:42, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

  • Delete This article fails WP:LISTN, WP:LISTCRUFT, WP:OR, and WP:SYNTH. There is no real defined scope of this article and it's just a mashup of info that has been randomly found or added because someone was a fan of a particular work. It belongs on a fan website and was created over 16 years ago when standards on Wikipedia were much lower, and I don't believe for a second it would get approved as an article today.

  • There's nothing sudden about Diary of a Nobody as it has been in the list since it was first created in 2003. Yes, that's 2003 – sixteen years ago, when categories didn't exist as a mechanism. Since that time, the list has been edited by hundreds of editors and read by many thousands. As for policy, there's no discernable policy in the nomination – just opinionated arguments to avoid like "serves no encyclopedic purpose". That's quite illogical when the list has outstanding entries like the FA Diary of a Nobody and the vital article The Color Purple. It's this discussion which serves no useful purpose and so it should be speedily closed. Andrew D. (talk) 20:12, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This is a great resource for those looking up fictional diaries.
  • Keep but reduce - I should say that the first section, "Fictional works in diary form", is of a type that can be curated well, and restricted to existing articles.

  • Keep Similar articles have been deleted in the past, but many are also kept, per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cult films (3rd nomination). At a WP:COMMONSENSE level, WP has huge articles of incomplete lists of notable items, but not always in a tightly defined sense. E.g. 2019. The key component that is usually dominant at AfD is whether the individual items are in themselves notable (e.g. have their own WP articles; as per 2019), and the definition of inclusion is not so broad as to be meaningless (per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fictional films (3rd nomination)). Ths list does meet these criteria and therefore serves as a useful navigation list (like a navbox, but too large to be a navbox) for a reader on the topic.

There are various suggestions to improve the article, but they are not reasons to delete it, and can be discussed on the article's Talk page.

  • Keep The list has a clear inclusion criteria, and virtually all of the articles on the list have their own article too. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 17:05, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I merged a section of another list into this one last year (see Talk:List of fictional diaries § Merge proposal), and I didn't see any reason to question the list's existence then. Some of the arguments for deletion here have been interesting to read, but weighing the arguments for and against deletion, I find the arguments against deletion to be stronger. Especially relevant is, for example, Deb's observation that there is a category for these items (Category:Fictional diaries) but there is no other article that explains what fictional diaries are, and the large quantity of Wikipedia articles on individual fictional diaries shows that such a general explanation is warranted: this list and its lead serves that purpose, and the category alone is not sufficient.

Article about, quote "an international model, dance performer, nutrition and skincare consultant, and recently an entrepreneur and innovator" (permalink) that since has been toned down a bit by the declared paid editor User:Fijigirl333 who's working indirectly for subject. The article was previously deleted under G11 in both main space and in draft space twice, and was declined twice and then rejected at AFC. User:Fijigirl333 has added multiple citations to the article, all are pay-for-play-journalism, and all of them dates later than the 10 April rejection of the draft. User:Fijigirl333 has now moved the unreviewed article from draft space to main space. There is nothing to support a WP:BASIC/WP:GNG pass, or a presumed pass under an SNG like WP:NMODEL. PROD would be the obvious tag for an article like this, but given the persistency with which Omar Al Mohammed tries to promote himself, I take this to AFD assuming we will have a future G4-possibility here.

Of these, I have included a few. I wasnt aware this page was deleted before. The drafts were clearly not accurately written so I'm happy to draftify it if I can get feedback.

The subject of this article, an event from 2014, fails to meet notability criteria for events (Wikipedia:Notability (events)). The event had a bit of news coverage in 2014 and no further coverage, or evidence of impact, since then. The subject is covered with a section in the Google Glass article; a separate article is unnecessary.

If we look at this article as being about a type of health intervention rather than being about a news event, I'm afraid it's even worse. This article promotes the POV that Google Glass is an effective tool for helping women breastfeed, based on a tiny trial (6 patients!), and the results were apparently not published in a peer-reviewed medical journal. Our normal standard for sourcing of health-related claims is that we do not include claims that are based on the results of single clinical trials, even if they are peer reviewed. This article clutters up Category: Breastfeeding with highly commercial, trivial, poor-quality information. Our readers who are interested in breastfeeding deserve much better than this.

  • Delete per nom. This is basically a spam article. Nick-D (talk) 07:31, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep or, at worst, selectively merge to Google Glass. I'm surprised it had no ongoing impact (e.g. the roll-out of an app) but it certainly had significant news coverage across a variety of (mainly Australian) news outlets over a period of several months. This is 'notability', regardless of the size of the trials or their scientific validity. I can't see any unsubstantiated claims in the article, but things like that can be addressed by clean-up, rather than deletion. The small paragraph in the Google Glass article doesn't really do the subject justice at the moment. Sionk (talk) 14:45, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Does not satisfy WP:BIO or WP:GNG. Only has primary sources. A web search does not show up much of anything, let alone independent reliable sources for Odero Peter Otieno or Odero Otieno.

The article makes no claim of why the subject is notable aside from education awards / scholarship, concluding only that he co-founded a company "that seeks to make ... deliveries ... and give in-app microloans".

Reads like a CV and is written by a user using the same name as the subject of the article. Another contributor to the article is a username with the same name for which there is a redirect from, Francis Odhiambo, to Odero Peter Otieno. -Lopifalko (talk) 06:58, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete While this person has gained some attention (this speaks to that) there isn't sufficient reliable, secondary sources attesting to his notability to meet WP:GNG or WP:NBIO. I am troubled as well about the creator's WP:IDHT attitude in having his draft rejected (see Draft:Odero Otieno), and then subsequently creating the article in mainspace anyway, with essentially the same material. Further, the editor appears likely to be the subject of the article, based on usernames. WP:AUTOBIO comes into play here. I've placed uw-autobiography warnings on the talk pages of the two accounts in question. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:56, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment From a quick scan I think the only difference between the rejected draft and the article in mainspace as it now stands is what I removed from it in mainspace—inline external links, and sources that were mere mentions of the thing described itself and not of him and the thing. -Lopifalko (talk) 19:04, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable for the purposes of guaranteeing him an article, so the notability standard he would have to meet is that he's been the subject of enough reliable source coverage to clear WP:GNG — but the references here are primary sources, not reliable or notability-supporting media coverage. Wikipedia is not a free publicity platform on which people are entitled to place their résumés in order to boost their web presence because they lack conventional media coverage — the depth of media coverage a person does or doesn't have is the notability test that determines whether they get a Wikipedia article or not.

  • Keep. I suspect there is some confusion between unreliable and unscientific going on here. The sources aren't so bad. The most accessible souce that I looked at, The Big Book of Virginia Ghost Stories, is published by Stackpole Books, a well established publisher. The author cites the story to named, contemporary newspapers. On the face of it, it is a reliable source, from a reliable publisher, providing secondary analysis from primary sources. Frankly, for a subject such as this, we couldn't ask for a better source. Accusations of embellishment and circular referencing need some evidence before we start rejecting putative reliable sources.

  • Keep. I wrote the article, because it appeals to the folklore and superstitions and ghost stories of Appalachia. There are a number of different sources for the phantom which appeared at different times and different places, in different states, sometimes for good and sometimes not. It is a short but accurate article. The fact that the stories of the woman in black are over a hundred years old, and still told by the Roanoke Times, shows current interest. And of course, this is what Wikipedia is for- the inclusion of information that is not usually found in other printed encyclopedias, but in a larger, online version, that can be used as a springboard for further investigation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hadden (talkcontribs) 00:48, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If this was a topic from a work of fiction, I'd say it's written too much "in-universe". The sourcing is fine, it's notable as a supernatural phenomenon, however it's written as though there's an actual being named "Woman in Black", not a few old ghost stories with similar features.

  • Delete In American universities only the president or similar top academic offier is default notable for that position. A few universities probably have enough influence that we could find enough sourcing on any Provost to show they are notable. This would probably apply to say Bruce C. Hafen, the only Provost BYU ever had (at others times the university has had an academic vice president). However Hafen passes notability in several other ways (says the person who created the article on Hafen and then saw it nearly deleted, it was my second article and I had not yet begun to cite.) However later examples like James Rasband and C. Shane Reese do not pass because they were academic vice president, or even because they were deans of specific colleges, although both maybe should lead to passes, but because they held named academic chairs. Reese also might pass another aademically notability criteria because he is a fellow of the American Statistical Association. However vice provosts are just plain not default notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:38, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This rather minor political figure does not appear to pass notability. Anything significant can be merged with the article on Labour for Independence, itself a rather short-lived campaign which may have folded.

The only cited information is that this person was the first to squirt on camera. Aside from that we don't have anything meaningful. Fails GNG, BLP1E and ENT. Maybe a redirect to an article about squirting might be better. Spartaz Humbug! 05:37, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notability fail. I did quite and extensive search and came up with zero evidence of in-depth coverage. The current article sources are just boilerplate bios and institutional staff pages. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 02:52, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
