The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. The keep votes are generic and not policy based, nor do they add any information that helps establish the notability of the person. The delete votes have provided high detailed reasoning as to why this is either too soon, or never to be, and why this BLP fails to pass the criteria for inclusion.

WP:BLP of a typical graduate student. Fails WP:GNG, WP:ACADEMIC. PulseLabel (talk) 22:17, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. She appears to be a grad student at MIT, WP:TOOSOON for notability through WP:PROF. There are some moderately well cited publications by E. DeBenedictis but they are by Erik P. DeBenedictis (with whom she shares a web site). She is also the author of a very recent PNAS paper; this is a significant accomplishment but not by itself enough for notability, especially because there are ten authors and she is in a middle position among them. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:10, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. Needs more details and references.Germcrow (talk) 19:33, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Added some more information and references. Mlvandijk (talk) 19:31, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete:
  1. Not significant coverage – a couple of lines in the context of a naming citation. Adequately covered at 23131 Debenedictis.
  2. Not independent coverage – author is a member of the organisation that sponsored the prize.
  3. Not significant coverage — same as 1.
  4. Unlikely to be significant coverage – I'm not paying US$169 just to verify the citation, but considering it's a IAU reference dictionary it will likely be similar or identical to 1.
  5. Not independent coverage – university website covering its own summer school program.
  6. Not independent coverage – author "was the Academic Director of the program at New Mexico Tech" which DeBenedictis attended and coverage is of events during the program.
  7. Not independent coverage – Intel press release covering science fair it sponsored.
  8. Not significant coverage – barely a sentence about DeBenedictus winning an Intel contest.
  9. Not independent coverage – TED profile.
  10. Possibly unreliable coverage – Scientista seems more of a promotional organisation for female college students than a reliable media organisation.
  11. Not independent coverage – interview.

Best sources not in article:

  1. New York Times op-ed – not significant coverage, similar to 8 (same author).
  2. ZDnet – not significant coverage, barely two sentences.

Overall, any significant information could be easily included in 23131 Debenedictis or Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. – Teratix 00:30, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article is, I am afraid, unsalvageable.

  • Delete - As stated by the nom, the actual supposed "creature" that this article is about was an orchestrated hoax. So, at the very least, the article can not exist in its current form where it falsely describes this as an actual piece of folklore. And, as it was not a particularly notable hoax, I don't really see it passing the WP:GNG in general. There's a handful of articles mentioning it, but none of it goes beyond just run of the mill news of the day. There is nothing to show any real lasting notability of the hoax.

  • Delete - I was surprised, given notable performers, but it doesn't seem to have any reviews from reliable sources. Testing the long list of reviews on ImDB took a while, but no joy there. Thus failure of WP:NFILM. No single obvious redirect target, so delete for now. Nosebagbear (talk) 22:35, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Too much Tiananmen information has been deleted already. Furthermore, this incident is a notable part of the history of a set of iconic photographs, not just one more case of an ad being controversial. - phi (talk) 18:53, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@- phi The IP editor below makes a convincing argument for merging this article to Tank Man to improve the Legacy section. Do you find this solution satisfactory enough to change your vote to merge like I did? Newshunter12 (talk) 23:54, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Newshunter12 - I certainly applaud your compromising spirit and came back here to say yes to your suggestion but then read the later keep argument from IP editor 109.&c and would like to take a couple days, first to see if a consensus emerges but also I hope to have lunch with some of the people from the Chinese studies department where I work (since I do not read Chinese myself to see what that encyclopedia article says). I found the point about needing the detailed description of the film compelling and doubt it would fit well under Legacy. However, from my connection the YouTube video ID # UCUBAcGgb4A linked in the footnoted Guardian article is still up (though I found it only thanks to material proposed for deletion). That five-minute version includes much more than the fleeting glimpse of the iconic photograph, from the wolves to the security men in the foreigners' hotel. I have qualms about entrusting the public record of a major censorship incident to a video-sharing site. I can understand how the Leica ad might be such major news in China that it'd be weird for us not to have an article on it. Time will tell, but I can certainly imagine coming around to your merge proposal, too. - phi (talk) 20:42, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Merge -- Okay, @Newshunter12, you have brought me around because when I got a person from Chinese studies to translate the page mentioned by IP editor 109&c it was immediately clear to me that what may be encyclopedic in one language may not be in another (due to embedded cultural references deep in the nature of linguistic truth). Barring further developments for Leica or Saatchi & Saatchi, this incident will not likely warrant a freestanding encyclopedia article. However, the most important takeaway from yesterday's consultee (a young European Chinawatcher, though I'll try to also probe the two divergent views among native speakers in the Mandarin language department) is that the repudiated Leica ad ought to gain mention in English Wikipedia where it is germane to the handling of the historical legacy of 6/4, say a page about that, or, I am told, we are likely to soon have a 30th anniversary page analogous to five years ago's. The point here is that this incident may prove to be the first among several in the runup to 2019-06-04 next month. An additional suggestion was that it would be important for the material merged into Tank Man to include this still. We will have to deliberately consider how things unfold. Though students have made me sensitive to Tiananmen-related information disappearing from the historical record, this is not my field, so I'd be grateful if other editors would also take information suppressed between now and the upcoming May 35th to heart. - phi (talk) 11:19, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge This event is not really notable enough, or significant enough, for an article of its own. However it does give good context to other events, and needs to be on Wikipedia. Would be more appropriate to merge with Tank Man, specifically, to expand and improve the event's mention on the article's Legacy section. It is mentioned there anyway, but a bit more information, and additional sources (only one source on tank man page, 5 sources here) would be good. It could possibly be mentioned (even if only briefly) on other pages as well, such as Internet censorship in China, Censorship in China, 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. Merge it with what is already on Tank Man#Legacy, and possibly give it a few mentions on other relevant pages. As Newshunter12 has said, it isn't notable enough to justify an article, but should get a mention.106.68.57.82 (talk) 23:32, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The length and comprehensiveness of the Chinese Wikipedia article already demonstrated the significance and notability of this event, at least in the context of Chinese society and consequently in Chinese Studies. This advertisement might be the most widely publicised media in recent Chinese society that depicts the Tiananmen protests and in particular the journalistic struggles behind Tankman, given its short film nature (and artistic merit!) and Huawei's very visible advertising campaign since its partnership with Leica. I would imagine many of my generation looking back at this and say, "this is where I felt the influence that Tiananmen had on Western societies, and where I felt the pressure facing foreign journalists operating in a closed China."
I would agree though that this article as it is written is not very helpful to understanding the significance of this event or its full implications. It is now little more than a stub, while the Chinese Wikipedia page has a detailed accounting of the plot and analysis of reactions and repercussions. The Chinese page has more than 30 references, all of which are reportings on this particular video, across a palette of international media. Also note in particular that both Leica Brasil and the film's directing studio (Kid Burro) has deleted all official releases of this film. Even semi-official releases from individual producing staff and associated Radioaktive Film are all gone, and that means dead video links in news reports. A detailed description of the film would be very useful to any reader without access to the original. 109.246.2.242 (talk) 04:41, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:TOOSOON article about a concert tour, not yet reliably sourcable as notable per WP:NTOUR. The notability standards for concert tours explicitly state that a tour is not automatically notable enough for its own article just because you can technically verify the dates and venues (see "Sources that merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability") — rather, the notability test for a concert tour requires media coverage to contextualize the tour's importance in "artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms". So no prejudice against recreation in the fall if it becomes possible to add and source that type of content, but a concert tour does not automatically qualify for an article just because the band's own self-published website verifies that it's happening. For the record, this seems to have been created as a redirect in March, and then converted to a standalone article by an anonymous IP within the last 48 hours — so I would also have no objection to restoring a redirect if that's what consensus prefers.

The term "child prodigy" is inherently subjective; it would be impossible to create an unbiased list. The list describes itself as "haphazard" and that it "probably [does] not represent the typical experience of a child prodigy." ―Susmuffin Talk 15:52, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep (and I'm a bit surprised at myself for this), seems to easily meet WP:LISTN. It could use some work to help determine inclusion criteria, maybe something like: subject needs an article on WP and has to be explicitly described as a prodigy by a WP:RS. Just a quick idea there, but I'm sure something better can be hashed out if there's some need. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 19:54, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • But this does not meet WP:LISTN at all - " One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources". Noone has given any reliable source (or any source at all) that treats all - or even most - of the people listed here as "prodigies".--Smerus (talk) 08:44, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • The concept child prodigy is notable, and that's what we should expect "discussion as a group" to look like for this topic. And no doubt sources on that concept even include discussion of certain examples and comparisons. If you're instead interpreting that guideline to mean that there should be a source that lumps together the same entries as our list, that's neither necessary nor a reasonable interpretation, as that would basically require that we've copied our list. postdlf (talk) 14:04, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • As I have pointed out (below) the article child prodigy is headed by a sourced definition of the term, and that is what we should use as a criterion here, for consistency. It is for those who wish to interpret the term differently to justify doing so.--Smerus (talk) 14:32, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
          • I was responding to your argument that LISTN wasn't satisfied. Did you mean to insert your comment elsewhere in this discussion?

  • Delete per nominator. It's all too vague and subjective. What does it mean to suggest keeping those described as prodigies by 'reliable sources'? When there is no accepted definition of prodigy, however reliable the source, it's going to be subjective. The only possible exception is musical prodigies, where there is some consensus in terms of appreciated performances or compositions. André-Marie Ampère a child prodigy, when he wrote about stuff at the age of 13? William Rowan Hamilton read Hebrew at the age of 7? My Israeli nephew reads it at the age of 4. Anne-Marie Imafidon got a scholarship to Oxford at 15? So what? Ricky Schroder got a Golden Globe award age 9 - that fos for acting a 9-year old, not for being a prodigy. Come on, folks, let's get real.--Smerus (talk) 21:16, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • However, to be constructive, I have begun an attempt at tidying it up of its worst excesses, by sticking to the sourced definition in WP child prodigy 'A child prodigy is defined in psychology research literature as a person under the age of ten who produces meaningful output in some domain to the level of an adult expert performer.' Only a minority of those on the list meet this definition.--Smerus (talk) 11:19, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • You should have waited for consensus. The lead describes the list as those "who have come to the haphazard attention of history or current news." I think if a reliable source describes them as a prodigy, they should be included. That is as much tidying up as should be done. Subuey (talk) 00:09, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as a POV fork when the idea of "child prodigy" is subjective, and Wikipedia is supposed to be nuetral. Promoting personal opinions in ways like this goes against such a principle. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 11:14, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral The significant problem with list entrants is the sourcing. Many seem to throw the word “prodigy” in as a substitute for talented rather than justifying the descriptor. I believe the list is and would be more useful if the term was not as subjective as it currently stands. It may be a bit too difficult for us to develop specific criteria for inclusion. There are lots of smart and talented people out there, but at what point do they ascend to prodigyhood (without the assitance of professional marketing/PR or parents getting involved)?--☾Loriendrew☽ (ring-ring) 13:21, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep, and perhaps rename to something along the lines of "List of children considered prodigies". As others have pointed out, it's hard to decide on criteria for the list, but a RfC may help. As it stands, I'd prefer both these actions over deletion.

  • Weak keep pending evidence that the actor actually fails NACTOR (which guideline the nom initially mislinked). Our articles on both Kadal (2013 film) and Sagaa imply his roles were fairly significant, and while I haven't personally seen either film to verify this I doubt either of the above delete !votes has either. I also don't know if the films are actually notable, but if their lack of notability is going to be used to delete this article, those articles need to be deleted first. Hijiri 88 (やや) 02:17, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - does not meet WP:ANYBIO or WP:NACTOR - no notable roles, contribution or coverage - the two citations are to film reviews, not articles about Saran - does not meet any notability guideline - Epinoia (talk) 22:04, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Epinoia: You're the third person to say he doesn't meet NACTOR but the first since I pointed out that he probably does, so I guess I'll ask you: Has had significant roles in multiple notable films I guess depends on how you define "multiple", but do you think two is not enough? Hijiri 88 (やや) 23:23, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hijiri88 - Oxford defines multiple as "having or involving several parts" and defines several as "more than two" - also, they have to be significant roles, in the films cited Saran has supporting roles - also, they have to be notable films, neither of the films mentioned meet WP:NFILM, "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" or any of the 5 criteria of WP:NFO - Epinoia (talk) 23:57, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"supporting" and "significant" are not mutually exclusive. In one of the films I cited he was the lead, and in the other he appears to have been the lead for the first part of the film before the time skip (?). Did you read my comment? in the films cited Saran has supporting roles implies not. Also, as I said above, if you are going to argue that an actor is not notable because his significant film roles have been in non-notable films, you need to AFD those articles first, since topics with standalone articles that appear at a glance to cite multiple reliable sources are presumed notable. Would I be correct in guessing that your assumption to the contrary is that you yourself had not heard of them? Hijiri 88 (やや) 00:29, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- an indication of the significance of a role is the cast listing; in Kadal he is listed 12th in a cast of 15; in Sagaa he is listed 4th out of 6 characters; in Jilla he is listed 27th; in Vada Chennai he is listed 18th out of a cast of 19 - based on that I would say that his roles are not significant - the article tries to inflate the importance of his roles with dramatic language, "He became hero" and "held a pivotal role" - WP:NOTPROMOTION - as far as I know there is no guideline that says that non-notable films must be nominated for AfD before non-notable actors - Epinoia (talk) 01:48, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
in Sagaa he is listed 4th out of 6 characters Are you reading the IMDb page? Neither Wikipedia nor IMDb are reliable sources, but in this case Wikipedia appears to be more in-depth, and therefore likely correct; the IMDb cast list appears to be arranged in alphabetical order, with all but one actor given mononymically by their given name. Please be a bit more careful in the future. Hijiri 88 (やや) 02:30, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The article does seem very close to the contributor, in that the contributor has only added to articles concerning Barnaby's production. Still, I was able to find a BBC article[1] and an article from The Chortle[2] that mention Barnaby Eaton-Jones. That's not exactly WP:BASIC but it is something so I would say the article could be redeemed or at least merged into the Robin of Sherwood: The Knights Of The Apocalypse article. Though, even in that article it seems like Barnaby Eaton-Jones is over-quoted; specifically the quote in the production section seems like nothing more than advertising.

Neither The Knights of the Apocalypse radio play or I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again clearly meet the threshold (and I'm going to want to take a look at their notability a bit more closely) and the dug-up mentions in this AfD don't clearly meet the significance threshold (the BBC one certainly doesn't as it's just a quote, the Chortle has a bit more but he's certainly not the subject and the publisher isn't as prestigious as the BBC anyhow.)

  • Delete This article fails WP:NMODEL and WP:GNG. The sources are either quite weak (ex. a Medium post and Newsny) or her own website, which does nothing to establish notability. Lots of people also attend charity events or get magazine covers, so none of that by itself makes her stand out as a notable model or fashion creator. As to the puff nature of this article, I say WP:NOPROMO. Newshunter12 (talk) 02:06, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The article has significantly detailed references such as Medium and News NY. There are similar articles on Wikipedia with few or no issues, see pages of Arika Sato and Sofia Nikitchuk. Instead of deletion, we can invite other editors to edit the page by putting a BLP sources or notability tag on the page.

    Mary Mark Ockerbloom, yes but there's little media cover about her. While her work might be notable, she isn't. Notability isn't inherited. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 00:38, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There is a lot more biographical info in the sources (the one added by Megalibrarygirl, and other shorter newspaper articles). She has been in two groups - Moore by Four, and Uma, and reviews of their albums and shows include some reviews of her performances. I also note that the song When You Believe, sung by Sally Dworsky and Michelle Pfeiffer, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1999. She also co-wrote That's as Close as I'll Get to Loving You, which could mean that she meets WP:COMPOSER #1 "Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition." All of this could be added to the article. Also, I don't think that "Notability isn't inherited" applies here. WP:NOTINHERITED actually says "notability is usually neither inherited nor inherent" (my emphasis), and "four of the notability guidelines, for creative professions, books, films and music, do allow for inherited notability in certain circumstances". Writing a notable song is one circumstance where notability may be inherited. RebeccaGreen (talk) 11:24, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    RebeccaGreen, but as it stands the article is just a list of her performances with a paragraph about her. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 14:41, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Notability is about the subject of the article, not the content. The fact that an article can be improved is not a reason to delete it. RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:49, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I have edited the article and added the sources and information I found. As I said above, I think that she meets WP:COMPOSER #1 "Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition," having co-written That's as Close as I'll Get to Loving You (for which she also got ASCAP awards for most-performed songs two years running). Also, although the Academy Award for Best Original Song goes to the composer and lyricist, not the performers, two songs in which she sang won that award, in 1995 and 1999. There was certainly newspaper coverage of her singing in those films. I would say that she also meets WP:BASIC, which says "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability". There are two mid-length articles largely about her, and many more shorter articles, reviews or sections in articles about artists/groups she performed with. (I don't know why her brother Richard Dworsky is redirected to A Prairie Home Companion - I found some lengthy coverage about him (and about her other brother Alan) when I was searching for her.

WP:BLP of a writer, not reliably sourced as passing WP:AUTHOR. Of the 22 footnotes here, 21 of them are literally his own books metaverifying their own existence on Google Books or the self-published websites of their own publishers, and the other one is still the self-published website of the book's publisher, just to its front splash page instead of to a page actually promoting the book per se. As always, you do not make a writer notable enough for a Wikipedia article by metareferencing his work to itself to prove that it exists: you make a writer notable enough for a Wikipedia article by reliably sourcing his work to media coverage about him and his work, such as critical reviews and real arts journalism.

Directory entries, "participating writer" profiles on the self-published websites of literary festivals, press releases from your own publishers and employers, blogs and YouTube clips of you speaking about yourself are not notability-supporting sources. A couple of these sources are okay, but most of them are not valid support for notability at all — somebody else (not you) is going to have to review whether the sources that are okay are enough or not, because even with a couple of better sources the notability test for a writer still requires more than just that your name has appeared in newspapers once or twice.

    Akld guy, If you are the nominator of an article for deletion, your desire to delete it is assumed (unless you specify that you are neutral, and nominating for other reasons).

  • Keep. The award is enough to establish notability, even in the absence of in-depth coverage. What she has done in the last 25 years (or whetehr she is still living) doesn't affect the notability given or recognized by the award. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 17:35, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Porn awards conferring notability while failing WP:BASIC is an appeal to the now-superseded WP:PORNBIO SNG. Proof of WP:ENT notability needs independent RS acknowledgement, which does not appear to be available. • Gene93k (talk) 19:32, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. It fails WP:ENT and WP:BASIC. There are no independent reliable sources, and no sources that can be used to build even a basic biography. The sources that do exist tell us only that someone by this name did something 25 years ago. SarahSV (talk) 18:58, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Fails WP:BASIC and WP:ENT without significant coverage from independent reliable sources. • Gene93k (talk) 19:43, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
