I don't think there are any "independent" sources about him. They all seem to be interviews or sources about the company, Chikka. The author of this article made no edits outside these two subjects. I am not nominating Chikka for deletion because I think it meets GNG. —Naddruf (talk ~ contribs) 23:25, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

- Oil Junction, California (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)
A rail junction that goes at least as far back as 1906, it was where the "Oil City Branch" of the SP headed east from the main line. Somewhat later a subdivision was built directly on top of it; personally I wouldn't want a rail line running right though the neighborhood, but there it is. References to it are mostly about routine rail things; I see no sign that it was ever considered a community of its own. Mangoe (talk) 23:07, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

This article is based on unreliable sources from the Raj era. Please see [1] and this noticeboard discussion for the problems with British Raj sources. They should generally not be used, and certainly whole articles should never be based on them. RexxS (talk) 22:20, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

- Before: I can find nothing but passing mentions of "the little kingdom of Jeypore" using online searches. There is a trail that points to
Orissa Historical Research Journal, 1992, B. Schnepel, "Origin and Consolidation of the Kingdom of Jeypore"
, but there is no sign of that article anywhere that I can find, so I still see a lack of reliable secondary sources giving significant coverage of the topic. --RexxS (talk) 22:38, 16 April 2020 (UTC) - Hello sir, The erstwhile kingdom of jeypore is of a great significance to the people of the particular place. Till the coastal city of Vizagapatnam you can see the name and noble social works of the dynasty. The 25th king donated lands to keep the Andhra University running, there is a statue there in his honour. We are only using wikipedia as a medium to inform people about the history which is often lost in oblivion if not preserved. And I believe wikipedia should be the same. Its a platform for information and I am generously sharing information. I understand there are not a lot of articles about the kingdom due to the obscurity in the region during the British Raj. But now there are attempts that are being made to preserve such history. I am a journalist myself and I have seen so many articles on princely states and estates but none of them are questioned or proposed for deletion. Kindly, go through my article and let me know if you think there is something that must be edited. But please its a humble request that you dont delete this page as I have worked for months, day and night, researching and writing this article.
- And there are informations from both pre Raj era and post Raj era. If you have problems with raj era then i can delete the post raj era material. But the information is based on Kumar Vidyadhar Singh's book Nandapur the forsaken kingdom, he was a learned writer, he researched through the royal geneological books for information.
- Kind Regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JeyporeRajMahal (talk • contribs) 23:31, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- You misunderstand, JeyporeRajMahal: we don't want you to delete post-raj material (in so far as there is any); that's the kind of material Indian historical articles want. Post-Raj sources, i. e. more modern sources, are the best, especially academic ones. KSB Singh's book Nandapur A Forsaken Kingdom is from 1938, which means it's a Raj era book and should not be used. A really old book like The Fifth Annual Report from the Select Committee on the Affairs of the East India Company, from 1866, has even greater problems. Did you go to the links I and RexxS have offered, [2] and [3] for a detailed explanation of the many problems with Raj era sources? Pre-Raj sources are older still and it's very rarely they can be used. Could you please follow those links, now provided for the third time? Oh, and Delete. Bishonen | tålk 00:22, 17 April 2020 (UTC).
- Delete in its current state This article appears to be a good faith effort (though likely with some COI issues) and the subject may be notable. However, the current version is deeply problematic because of the sources it relies on. In particular, the main two sources used are:
- The aristocracy of southern India (1903), which is an outright hagiographical work. Its section on the then king of Jeypore begins:
His Highness the Maharajah, Sri Sri Sri Vikraima Deo, Azem, Mahalrajah, Yujadud Dowla, Mahabat Assar, Yedal Yemeenay, Salatnut, Samsamay, Killapathay, Islam Sri Jhadkhand Badusha, Maharajah of Jeypore, of the Solar Race, the possessor of a hilly tract, in the Vizagapatam District, is naturally mild and pacific like his father, possesses a quick apprehension and extensive capacity, evinces talents for business, and is no less distinguished for sobriety and decorum of deportment than for literary acquirements...
- Nandapur: A Forsaken Kingdom (1939), which is an effort to reconstruct the medieval era history of the Sankara dynasty's rule by an author who, as the book's introduction notes, is "a scion of a Raj-family which once held independent authority in the Orissa Gadjaths; and he has now become a distinguished member of the present Jeypore, the old Nandapur, Maharaja family by marriage. His second son Sree Ramakrishna Deoas Yuvaraja of Jeypore, will,..., carry forward the Jeypore line into the new Self-governing Federated India."
- The aristocracy of southern India (1903), which is an outright hagiographical work. Its section on the then king of Jeypore begins:
- Thus, even if one discounts their antiquity and obscure publishers, neither of these works are reliable independent sources that one can build an encyclopedic article upon; and, while they are of potential value as primary material to a scholar studying the area's history, they cannot and should not be read uncritically or used as sources on wikipedia . The remaining cited sources in the current version of the article, only support some of its peripheral content.
- Searching for sources myself, I didn't find a ton (beware of false hits related to Kingdom of Jaipur in Western India) but there seems to be enough out there indicating that the subject itself may be notable and that a proper encyclopedic article would read very differently from what we currently have. For anyone interested in undertaking that work, perhaps the place to start would be The Jungle Kings: Ethnohistorical Aspects of Politics and Ritual in Orissa (see review). Abecedare (talk) 00:03, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Hello, I have deleted more material that used Raj sources. Now what is left is the geneological table and a few current and post 1947 details. Please do check and let me know if its still up for deletion.
- And most of the princely state wiki pages are using Raj sources, I hope I see them deleted in the near future if thats your policy.
- this is an article published by the official government website of Odisha state in India. link http://magazines.odisha.gov.in/Orissareview/2013/jun/engpdf/70-72.pdf
- is this relevant at all ??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JeyporeRajMahal (talk • contribs)
- WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a good argument. Official government websites are dubious, academic sources are preferred. Please sign your posts with five tildes, ~~~~ , so we know who's speaking. Bishonen | tålk 04:21, 17 April 2020 (UTC).
- Four tildes (which was probably meant here) would be better, because it provides your user name and a time stamp. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:38, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- doi:10.2307/3034233 is a 22-page academic paper published in 1995 about this kingdom, and "KANAK DURGA AND DASHERA IN JEYPORE - A HISTORICAL REVIEW" at [4] is a 7-page paper published by the Odisha State Museum in 2016. There are probably more sources found by this search but I don't have the inclination to read through them now. Phil Bridger (talk) 08:23, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. The sources that I gave above confirm that this was at one time an independent state, and for even longer was semi-independent. The source described as "dubious" by Bishonen as being on a government website is written by a reader in history at Vikram Dev College, Jeypore, and the journal seems to have a reasonably independent editorship (took me a long time to load), so it is not too dubious. These sources also contain plenty of information, so, if the current article has problems, it can be rewritten on their basis. Notability is an attribute of an article subject, not the current state of an article. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:38, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. I agree with the previous commmenter. As per WP:CONTN, "if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability." There definitly needs to be improvement to the article (at times is seems like closer to a geneology than history of a kingdom), there are many reliable, independent academic sources on the subject itself. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5Therefore, even if there are problems with the sourcing of the current article it is still notable enough to be an article (albeit one that requires significant revisions and review). Zoozaz1 (talk) 18:51, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep based on the existence of sources this is not fake, and passes WP:GNG. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:05, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep but tag for improvement This is a horrid article, mostly about the present titular princes. However that is not a reason for deletion, but for improvement. If their UK equivalents are anything to go by, local history periodicals are a reliable source, but not necessarily Internet-accessible. In one case, we have it on a state government website, which is entitled to as much respect as one from (say) Michigan. This is not from a parish council (which might be untrustworthy). Nevertheless, the article needs a vast amount of work; for example, the map is actually labelled Northern Madras: it may show the princely state, but not obviously.

- Smoke Dawg (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)
Fails WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO, WP:MUSICBIO and WP:VICTIM. There was trivial coverage of his musical career both before and after his death. Specifically, this biography fails WP:MUSICBIO criteria #4: "has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour". The concert tour Smoke Dawg participated in was not his tour; it was Drake's tour, and Smoke Dawg is not even mentioned on the Drake Wikipedia article. The first AfD discussion was a month after Smoke Dawg's death, and the additions to the article since then are merely memorials. The Youtube documentary, Remember Me, Toronto, produced by a non-notable musician, received trivial coverage and included just a few archival clips of Smoke Dawg. This person is notable for one event--his murder--and Wikipedia is not a memorial. Magnolia677 (talk) 21:48, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

- He passes WP:MUSICBIO 1. Please also refer to the notes made in the contested speedy deletion on the talk page. He has had a posthumous album released which received significant coverage by Exclaim!, and he has also had enough coverage by reliable sources before and after his death. TwinTurbo (talk) 12:21, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as per my previous comments. His posthumous "releases" are just other people basically sampling his music and the one release hasn't charted. There is no significant coverage of his work, just memorials about his death. Praxidicae (talk) 12:36, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- His posthumous album was unreleased tracks that he was working on before he passed away, not samples. What sources have you read that says this? And only 12 of the 48 sources used are about the death of Smoke Dawg. TwinTurbo (talk) 14:06, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- So what part of WP:NALBUM does it meet? Praxidicae (talk) 14:53, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- I did not create an album page for it to meet this, but there is enough coverage online on the album to give the rapper enough credibility. Mustafa the Poet, the filmmaker of Remember Me, Toronto is notable having been a songwriter on a grammy award winnign album, hence I believe he is a notable filmmaker. TwinTurbo (talk) 16:04, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Sorry but that is simply incorrect. My question is: what would make the album notable under WP:NALBUM? If you cannot answer, then that is proof that Smoke Dawg is not notable. Praxidicae (talk) 16:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

- Care to provide those links? This exclaim piece isn't about Smoke Dawg or his album, it's a 3 word passing mention, Complex source says nothing about the album or Smoke Dawg, this HNH piece says nothing about the posthumous album or the subject and it's the same for the rest.

- Aplogoies for referring to you as my "bro", It was said in a manner which meant no offence, I take it back you are not my bro. 👎 In regards to the HNHH article, that is how they review albums as you can see editors rating "VERY HOTTTTT" is equivalent of 5 stars. Just cos the article say RIP Smoke Dawg doesn't mean its a memorial. Complex article shows that there is reliable secondary sources which cover the album which you claim doesn't. Don't disregard the exclaim review as well which you also said wasn't a review of the album, because it is. TwinTurbo (talk) 16:04, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - I am sympathetic to Smoke Dawg's story, but the nominator's use of WP:VICTIM is most relevant. That guideline also links to WP:BIO1E, stating that Wikipedia should not have an article on a person who only ever received coverage for a single event, if that person would be totally low-profile otherwise. This is key for Smoke Dawg because his music received just about no significant and reliable media coverage on its own terms, and all that can be found are the typical social media and self-promotional sites. Therefore he was a non-notable musician. All of his media coverage, including in several reliable sources, is about his untimely death, so unfortunately WP:BIO1E kicks in. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 16:12, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- He has numours coverage on his works, not just his death. He even has a documentary by Noisey which was recorded in 2017. TwinTurbo (talk) 16:31, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - Notable artist and many good references. In worse case, where this page is deleted after discussion, many of the info could be added to special section in Halal Gang page and this page becomes a redirect. werldwayd (talk) 16:27, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - Meets WP:SINGER 1. numerous reliable articles on him, 4. (of course it was Drake's tour but he was on it nonetheless), 11. has been placed in rotation on OVO Sound Radio. He also meets WP:NALBUM 1, was the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works that was covered by Exclaim!, Complex, HotNewHipHop, and Vice (magazine). He really is a notable artist, you go to Toronto Im sure everyone there has heard of him, he has over millions of streams as well as millions of views on YouTube. The reason for previous delete was most likely a case of WP:TOOSOON, he has since had more coverage and posthumous releases since then on his music. Can I advise the people adamant on deleting this article to actually read the sources included in the article? TwinTurbo (talk) 16:43, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
Can I advise the people adamant on deleting this article to actually read the sources included in the article?
Sure, if we can advise you to read the same sources after you've read the relevant guidelines and policies related to significant coverage. Your argument fails because none of the sources you're talking about are reviews of the subjects albums. WP:ILIKEIT isn't a good enough reason to keep something and neither is "Everyone in Toronto knows him!" Praxidicae (talk) 17:06, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Weak delete. Majority of the sources online are about the subject's death. With the exception of this, none of his other music releases charted or were critically reviewed. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 18:34, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- Only 12 are about his death, These are a few of thesources that are not on his death but his career: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8] TwinTurbo (talk) 19:01, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

- @TwinTurbo: Those sources you mentioned here are press releases about the subject's music and are not about the subject himself. Exclaim's review of his album is a credible source no doubt; however, has other reliable publications reviewed his music?

- Yes they are, as above Praxidicae claims that there isn't enough coverage on his studio album to meet WP:NALBUM. The provision of these sources show that his album passes part 1 of WP:NALBUM.

- Excuse me. WP:MUSICBIO is the relevant subject specific guideline. Search for the word "album" and take a read. Also it doesn't matter if most of the coverage was for him after he got shot, that's still coverage they wouldn't give to someone who wasn't considered notable. Dream Focus 00:59, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
- Exclaim! is a reliable source. Smoke Dawg's solo singles "Count It Up" and "Trap House, ... produced endless energy. Now (newspaper) puts him on their list of Toronto musicians to watch in 2017. Have you looked through all the references found? Dream Focus 01:08, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

- Keep per TwinTurbo. Smoke Dawg also passes WP:MUSICBIO 4., as he headlined a concert in London in February 2017. Although some people may not like the fact that his posthumous album received critical acclaim in Exclaim!, that still adds to his overall notability since the first AfD discussion.

- Snow Keep per TwinTurbo, Dream & WP:HEY. Also, even if the nom was right about the Dawg failing WP:MUSICBIOcriteria #4, that's irrelevant as the guideline clearly states the musician only needs to pass one of them, and Smoke Dawg obviously passes #1. FeydHuxtable (talk) 12:20, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

Fails WP:NALBUM, if indeed it is an album. This looks like it was created as a college assignment project, so I'm sure it was done in good faith, but I just don't see how this is in any way notable. It's a collection of songs uploaded to the artist's YouTube channel, and briefly available to download from the artist's YouTube channel, and that's it. Unsurprisingly, almost every reference is to the artist's YouTube channels. The interview from Complex mentions a song or two, but not this entire collection... it refers mostly to Pink Season instead. I can't see how a redirect is useful, because there's no guarantee that people will use "music collection" as a search term; Pink Guy (album) is a much more likely search term and that already exists as a redirect to Joji (musician). I don't think a merge is appropriate either in order to "keep the history", because it's almost all sourced to the artist's YouTube channel, so there's no reliable sources involved.

- Delete - I completely agree with the nominator. This is not an album that was released, nor is it any sort of stand-alone item that can be described in an encyclopedic fashion. It's just a stream of songs self-uploaded to YouTube. Individual songs can be listed as appropriate at the artist's article at Joji (musician). ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 15:53, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

- Dorothy West (actress) (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)
The article only has iMDb as a source, which is not reliable. In my search for more information on her I can across a lot more unreliable stuff, and lots of false posities. One example was a celebrity life non-source that included a photo of the writer of the same name with her death information. I found a British Film Institute article (somewhat sourced to IMDB itself) that included a 1931 photo of a Dorothy West connected with a film by a female director and described as playing herself. It was just a caption description though, and nothing clearly connected that person with the silent film actress who had not performed at that point in over 15 years. West lived to be 79 but we only have any information anywhere I could find on her during 8 years of her life. She lived 64 years after her last apparance in a film. The only real source I could find was a film industry trade publication from 1916 with a plot synopsis for one of her films that mentioned her as having the role in the film. Nothing I came up with would count as the substantive, 3rd party secondary sources indepdent of the subject we need to pass GNG. While she was the lead actress in a few films, considering these films were often 15 minutes I do not think we can adequately apply a rule developed in an age of 1 hour plus long films and TV shows to show that the few films she stared in are enough. If you look through he listed filmography she often shows up at the bottom of the cast list with bit parts. John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:27, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

What????? Are you suggesting we hold an article to a different standard because the woman worked 100 years ago in the first years of film? --DiamondRemley39 (talk) 11:27, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- I am suggesting that we consider the meaning behind the standards we have. Significant roles in 3 films when they average one and a half hours or more means a lot more than in 3 films when they are much shorter. All the more so if the film articles themselves are only sourced to IMDb. Beyond this, the underlying problem that this article presented when I found it was being sourced only to IMDb. IMDb is not reliable, and we should not have articles sourced only to it. Considering we pretty much write off all 1-episode TV appearances as not significant, I do think we need a bit more skepticism about some film appearances.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:22, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- We have no separate (double) standard for silent films, do we? Consider that some of the films she was in are preserved by the Library of Congress and were reviewed by the press. They have as much clout as the longer, more modern films to which you refer. It's ok that you are not a silent film enthusiast -- I wouldn't say I am -- but equating a D.W. Griffith film with an episode of a television show doesn't work. If you want to pursue your idea that short silent films are less worthy and get notability policy changed, this isn't the place to do it. --DiamondRemley39 (talk) 12:38, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

- This is the most insulting comment I have seen. I did a lot of background search as documented above. The fact that there are other more notable people with this name made this difficult. A search for "Dorothy West" and actress showed up a lot of mentions of people appearing in films based on novels by the writer.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:05, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Try "Dorothy West" and "silent film" instead. And to be fair, a lot of your prod/deletion work in this area does appear to lack any WP:BEFORE work, such these recent examples: one, two. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 12:56, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

- Comment I mentioned that first source Lugnuts gave in his links. I am unconvinced that the caption is of a picture of this Dorothy West. Is that woman 48? That is how old this Doroty West was in 1931. Also it is just a caption, not really even a passing mention.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:07, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment The "Alie and Well and Living on Martha's Vinyard source shows that I am the one who did the before, not Lugnuts. That is not about this Dorothy West. How do I know. 1-This Dorothy West died in 1980. 2-That is most explicitly about the African-American writer, not the Euro-American actress. So of those first three sources we have only one that is for sure about this actress (there is no evidence that the 1931 photo is of this person) and even then it is focused on the director way more than the actress. It is most about one film, maybe it would count towards GNG, but we cannot pass GNG on that source alone.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:11, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment The biographical dictionary link does not work for me, so I cannot say if it is workable. However the fact that Lugnuts provides as a source an article about a totally different person shows that he did not in fact examine any of the sources he threw out in any detail. One passing analysis of a silent film someone starred in is not enough to create notability, and that is all we really have, because we have no evidence connecting the 1931 photo to this actress, this is not an uncommon name, and a caption to a photo is not the type of indepth article needed to pass GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:14, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

- The communication there about Dorothy West was done before any nomination, so it is in no way canvassing. The post there linked to is something I have not nominated. It is perfectly acceptable to communicate with others about issues concerning articles. On the other hand I am still waiting for Lugnuts to admitted one of those articles he linked to is about a different Dorothy West and so has no bearing on this discussion.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:14, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

- Keep as meets WP:GNG now because WP:HEY. I found reliable secondary sources, including one article that is just about her, and reviews of a couple of the films she was in that comment on her performance. I'm going to try to get other sources, including an obituary, but things like that may not be available due to stay at home orders. I have also read that she was a radio actress in the early 1930s and may look more into that in due time as well. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 17:20, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: I think the subject passes the notability guidelines quite comfortably. There has been some very good work done on the page by the above editors, so WP:HEY is relevant here.

The result was Clusterfuck. This catastrophically huge nomination is so big that XfDcloser is having a seizure whilst trying to close it. No prejudice against speedy renomination individually or in smaller batches.

Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chula Vista mayoral elections (an ongoing AfD), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2004 Mesa mayoral election, and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2018 Fontana mayoral election; these are all non-notable elections that mainly show the results and nothing else. It might be better to merge some of this information to other articles. Wow (talk) 20:03, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

Delete or Redirect others to List of mayors of Boise, Idaho, List of mayors of St. Petersburg, Florida, List of mayors of Spokane, San_Bernardino,_California#Mayors etc. Largely bulk-created using only primary source of results without discussion or significant coverage for notability; we are not Ballotpedia or OurCampaigns. Per WP:NOPAGE, can be covered in main articles/lists until separate page is warranted but data only does not justify standalone articles for small cities and suburbs with local-only news coverage.

- Keep - Too many to properly evaluate. These weren't mass created and are sufficiently different that they need to be broken down a bit more (arbitrarily, maybe a limit of 10 per nom). If you think the article format itself is flawed, you may want to consider an WP:RFC instead, but it's almost certainly going to result in "handle on a case by case basis, with no presumption of notability". — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:57, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

- This is the second instance of poor judgement being practiced by Wow relating to election articles this week. Creating this particularly jaw-dropping mess of a trainwreck comes right after Wow removed transparent images that were being used to regulate the width of candidates on the infoboxes of hundreds of election articles, accrediting these actions to what amounted to a GROSS misinterpretation of a centralized discussion. It was time consuming on my part to undue all of that. Wow, please practice due-diligence before undertaking actions that prove a massive waste of other users' valuable time. As was just stated, you practiced none of Wikipedia:BEFORE and also created massive trainwreck that, of course, was never going to result in anything productive. This is not how we undertake deletions. SecretName101 (talk) 02:40, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

- Snow procedural keep It is unreasonable to expect a consensus out of such a granular-level nomination--one editor counted 271 nominations from multiple cities and jurisdictions.

- Keep Major issues with mass nominations aside--there are far too many articles included here to properly evaluate--most of these are for mayoral elections in major American cities, making them fairly notable. It may be worthwhile to consider consolidation by city, at least for some of the smaller ones (outside of the 125-150 largest?), but I see no need to delete, especially en masse.

- Procedural keep: It's impractical to assess several hundred articles together like this. Even spending a minute skimming over each article would take around 4 hours, non-stop.

- I personally support this having a section in the article Minecraft server this really seems like players/users of this server creating a Wikipedia article and ignoring notability requirements, I do not believe it has enough notability for having an article. Simply being the oldest known public Minecraft server does not make it notable enough for it's own article. Considering that it is not a "well known" server, and only has about 40 users at peak times, it should NOT have it's own article. 1 Great Username (talk) 22:08, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

- Strong Support for Merge with Minecraft server, and add a section for it under Minecraft server#Notable servers. Same reasons as above. JamesHSmith6789 (talk) 23:49, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Saying that it fails notability due to a lack of sources no longer seems valid now. Sources now include Celebs Pulse and oldest.org, and I'm sure that Melofors is aware of their credibility seeming that he edited the 2b2t page.
- Also, to address 1 Great Username's points, the server is extremely popular and "well known". Videos on it accumulate millions of views from some of the top YouTube minecraft channels:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtFaCL5v7io
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IlJsazPu0I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCHrFu9GRvw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BjZIzagevE
- The thing is, 1 Great Username was right that a player created the wiki page. I wished he had not because the page he created is poorly sourced, and even more poorly worded. Someone else could have done, and still could do, a much better job.
- I think with some polish, minecraftonline.com definitely warrants its own page. I mean it's the oldest server on the best selling game of all time. I'm biased because I happen to be a player on the server, but I think my prior sentence speaks for itself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlphaAlex115 (talk • contribs)
- @AlphaAlex115: The reason 2b2t warrants an article is that it has several dedicated articles from notable sources. Other than one notable article by GamesRadar, MinecraftOnline is only mentioned on oldest.org and CelebsPulse, both of which are just mentions on lists. Also, oldest.org is unreliable and was removed from the 2b2t article. — Melofors TC 18:19, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

-Unspectrogram 04/17/2020 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Unspectrogram (talk • contribs)
- @Unspectrogram: @AlphaAlex115: A handful of YouTube links and forum threads do not establish notability on their own. You should acquaint yourselves with Wikipedia's core content policies. Dumping a pile of self-published sources into an AfD as counter-evidence gives a strong impression that this is a promotional article. —{ CrypticCanadian } 05:38, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
Don't think that's fair Cryptic. I also linked to other sources such as Celebs Pulse and oldest.org (in addition to gamesradar). There's likely more sources - and no doubt some could be gotten off 2b2t's page, but I'm lazy. In any event, it's not just YouTube. The YouTube videos with millions of views were just linked to counter 1 Great Username's point.
Also, I already said I was a player there. I'm not really interested in advertising the server - I just think it deserves its own page. Accusing me of trying to promote the server seems a tad harsh, and kind of irrelevant to the points I originally raised.-AlphaAlex115
- @AlphaAlex115: "Celebs Pulse" appears to be a content farm. Gamesradar is the only other secondary source I see on the article, which isn't enough to justify an article of this length. If the server deserves its own article, then why does the article rely 90% on primary sources? If the article isn't trying to be promotional, why would we need five different headings listing the server rules? Moderation strategies?
- "Do not grief. Do not cheat. Do not spam." "Players usually get a warning for the first time they break a rule, repeating the action can get the player banned." - Like every other competently ran game server?
- In its current state, this article is almost certainly going to the heap. Wikipedia doesn't grant exemptions for "laziness." You are free to edit the article to address these problems if you want to save it, but simply dismissing the problems isn't going to help it. —{ CrypticCanadian } 22:32, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
Yea Cryptic I agree. In its current state, it's garbage. And as I said before, I'm lazy. It's a shame, but to the heap it goes I guess. -AlphaAlex115

- Snow Keep per WP:NEXIST: The Curious George books have been popular since the 1940s; there are lots of reviews that make these easily pass WP:NBOOK. I've found contemporary New York Times and Chicago Tribune reviews for them. For example:
- Curious George Takes a Job review, New York Times (Sept 21, 1947)
- Curious George Takes a Job review, Chicago Tribune (Nov 2, 1947)
- Curious George Rides a Bike review, New York Times (Oct 12, 1952)
- Curious George Rides a Bike review, Chicago Tribune (Nov 16, 1952)
- And that's not even touching the many newspaper and magazine articles about the Curious George series. These sources aren't currently being used on the page, but WP:NEXIST says that the subject's notability is based on the existence of reliable sources that can be used to improve the article. It's pretty obvious that sources exist for Curious George books. — Toughpigs (talk) 21:00, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Strong keep, speedy close. And until the nom can come up with a rational explanation of how reviews in multiple trade publications and a feature in the New Yorker don't constitute "evidence of notability", they should stay away from AFD until repentance takes hold.

- Keep, meets WP:NBOOKS and WP:GNG, Curious George Takes a Job article listed multiple reviews prior to nomination so why is it here? This is another bundled afd that highlights the problems with doing so, for example lets look at Curious George Rides a Bike, a quick basic gsearch ("Curious George Rides A Bike book reviews") brings up multiple reviews in the 1st few pages: a Kirkus starred review here, Books for Keeps review here, there is even a recent (sept 2019) child's review here that although not reliable does reflect the impact that this title still has after over 60 years. Also, this Washington Post article, as well as having a review of Curious George Gets a Medal within it (Ding!:)) mentions "By the end of the 20th century, over 25 million copies of George’s seven volumes had been printed" bringing the 1st 7 titles into the realm of the bestseller, another criteria of nbook. in conclusion ("thank goodness for that.:)), a special plea for afd nominators pllleeeeeezzzzze carry out WP:BEFORE, especially for bundles, prior to nominating.

The junction for the Oroville line of the Sacramento Northern, big surprise. It has been abandoned for decades and mostly shows up in railroad-related hits, including a long series of those referring to the place for some other reasona nd describing it as this junction. The area also seems to have been referred to as "Tres Vias", but I'm not finding substantial references to that either. GMaps claims and old enough topos show a "Floral School", but the building is long gone, and according to this obituary the school closed in 1949, and it was "near Tres Vias". I'm just not seeing any evidence of a community here, and the rail junction doesn't appear notable. Mangoe (talk) 16:30, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

Per WP:EXIST this is an un-encyclopedic article merely listing the existence of a gentleman who was noted in one local news event about building an illegal swimming pool, and that was only covered because his wife was a notable politician. He also made the news for an expensive divorce ([19]) but these minor stories do not rise above the trivial. None of the requirements for "well known" and "widely recognized" at WP:ANYBIO are met.

- BTW, on one side WP:NOTINHERITED should be considered to reject the claim of notability as a husband of someone else. But it seem his previous divorce, became a landmark case Kan Lai Kwan v Poon Lok To Otto and HSBC International Trustee Limited which have article that publish by Oxford Publishing Limited to cover it. The criminal case of illegal addition and alteration of Poon /Cheng's house also attracted a lot of news coverage in Chinese language media in HK. Matthew hk (talk) 04:28, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Per this discussion over at Wikipedia_talk:Record_charts, a consensus was reached that the chart is a WP:BADCHART due to a dubious chart methodology which does not pass both logic and validity tests.

The result was Keep, without prejudice against resubmission. Due to the prior vandalism this is a rather odd submission. We have deletes, but their reasoning is predicated on the "at-submission" status of the article. I considered both a relist and a no-consensus result, but I felt that that would actually be falsely weighing the policy in play. It would also be hindering actual consideration. There were also dedicated Keep !votes on the current (and original) nature of the content and a request for a new AfD.
As such, I'm going to close this as a keep, but if an individual wants to renominate they are free to do so immediately. Anyone who does so should either post here or ping every participant of this AfD. Nosebagbear (talk) 16:13, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

The result was keep. Various policy issues were raises in this, including whether it met WP:LISTN, WP:TRIVIA, whether TRIVIA was relevant for determining the actual retention of content, along with WP:SALAT which notes that a list may creatable but too broad to have value. In favour of retention was that there are sufficient sources to met LISTN requirements, and there is a certain degree of scope limitation.
Ultimately, the sourcing/NLIST reasoning had a sufficient majority, even factoring in at least 2 "weak keep" !votes to demonstrate a consensus for retention. Nosebagbear (talk) 16:21, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - In the first AfD for this article there were some compelling "keep" votes with the rationale that there could be sources for the list, but here I am going to have to agree with the nominator. In addition to the WP:TRIVIA standard, see also WP:SALAT which says "some (list) topics are trivial, non-encyclopedic, or not related to human knowledge." Whenever an act takes an unusually long time between albums, it can be described at their own article, but there is little to be gained by comparing various artists in a list article like this as if notable patterns could be analyzed. I'll also point out that this list misses The Sonics at 48 years between original studio albums. Just sayin'. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 15:06, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

- Unrelated. The date anything is done is mentioned. There are list articles listing the bestselling albums of certain years though: Lists of albums.

- Keep - I do apologize for saying three years ago that I’d try to improve it, but not having that done yet. But it remains to be a notable subject, covered by reliable sources, and with a finite (not indiscriminate) scope, consisting of a list made entirely out of notable subject items. Sergecross73 msg me 20:30, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- A very weak Keep - A single source in the article, and little evidence provided of WP:NLIST thus far. I'm seeing some listicles and borderline sources around that might be sufficient, but it's all rather thin. Here's the best of what I can find: Billboard, maybe relevant CoS, Paste, Loudwire, maybe a bit more if we wrap in the concept of "comeback album"?

I don't think there are enough sources out there to build this into an article by itself.

There's a link to Paste Magazine, but it's to its Noise Trade section which is promotional and not independent of the subject.

Guys....I've done my best to follow all the rules established by Wikipedia with help from several editors. My sources are from true music publications, music writers and music publications that follow current artist. I've even show two main criteria for meeting a musical band - Lullwater has had rotation on Siruis Radio Channel and had charted on Billboards Secondary Market most added rock song in the week of 10/5/19. Granted, this is not the Rolling Stones or the Foo Fighters with #1 singles and album sales on Billboards top charts, but it is an upcoming band that is making a living by touring an supporting other major artist while trying to get more popular every day. Just because they are not a major player yet in the music world, I think they should still be able to be recognized by Wikipedia as a working band trying their best to succeed. The fact that they can be found on a Wikipedia search would lend credit to their hard work - it is not considered promotional in any way as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for listening. Lullwaterfan (talk) 21:28, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- The issue isn't that your attempt to write the article is promotional, but rather that there's insufficient coverage in reliable sources to comply with Wikipedia's verification policies. The standards for musical journalism are fairly low in practice: I'm willing to accept pretty much any coverage as long as its written by a professional publication with a publicized editorial masthead and bylines, and isn't blatantly promotional in its copy. I don't think that the provided sources meet this standard. If the band is up and coming as you say, WP:TOOSOON may apply. signed, Rosguill talk 21:46, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
Granted, they have not been covered by Rolling Stone magazine or MTV, but those are not the only music business publications out there. Lullwater is only "up and coming" because they haven't yet broken through to be a headlining band in today's music industry. But, they have a long (since 2007) and solid reputation as a quality opening act for such top tier musical acts as Passafire, RA, Amaranthe , Butcher Babies, Theory of a Deadman , Candlebox, Gin Blossoms, Collective Soul, Daughtry. I'm just a fan that would like to see a great band be represented on Wikipedia so others can learn about them. I've not included any promotional garbage that makes my article appear like a commercial for the band. Only facts! How can I show you all these articles and interviews about the band and bands like these that have almost zero information on them are on Wikipedia?? Examples: 2:54, InCrest, Yuck_(band), Fangclub, My_Ticket_Home. Lullwater's music can be found on iTunes, Spotify and Pandora. What more must they do to show they are an established act that has just not made it to the top tier of acts yet ???? Lullwaterfan (talk) 23:06, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

If you don't believe me, then wikipedia editors from Myanmar can ask to give a witness (but It is only a few active on english wikipedia). For now, although I agree the article is not well-written and needs some big improvements, but she has significant coverages and reliable sources to justify keeping. see [24] [25] [26] [27], or passing mentions in english sources [28], [29] [30], "Union Minister for Information, artistes discuss development of music industry with representatives from music industry", "two celebrities, Chit Thu Wai and Rebecca Win, were appointed women’s ambassadors for Myanmar to raise awareness for gender equality and women’s rights". The dearth of English sources notwithstanding, the amount of Myanmar news coverage easily establishes her notability per the WP:GNG. Moreover, she has participates as a judge on major televised singing competition “Eain Mat Sone Yar” (“Where dreams meet” or "Dream Encounters" အိပ်မက်ဆုံရာ) like Myanmar Idol. In fact, "only the most successful singers and music legends are invited to participate as the judges in major singing contest". She is also a judge on "Myanmar's Got Talent" (source). How much do you need? "KoKoChitChit" (talk) 22:30, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Note, she is not successful as an actress but she is a very famous singer in my country. I have added reliable sources and significant information to the article. It was very easy to find information in reliable sources on her work and there is sufficient evidence that she meets WP:GNG and WP:MBIO. More work is needed to bring this article up to better standards though. Thanks 37.111.43.38 (talk) 07:48, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

- Keep as per WP:HEY as the article has been significantly improved with the addition of references to multiple reliable sources such as national newspapers including the Mayanamar Times that show that the subject is a notable singer and television performer who passses WP:BASIC and therefore deseves an article here, in my view Atlantic306 (talk) 23:01, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

There are citations given in the article from dental medical journals. the company has even opened its own dental school with both a facility and an online presence. The dental industry doesn't generate as much excitement as other industries, that doesn't make it less relevant. notability should not even be a question given that Dentsply is one of if not the biggest dental companies in the USA. independent sources include Wall Street Journal, New York Times, the British Dental Journal, US National Library of Medicine, Iranian Endotonic Journal.

- Comment. I found a brief mention of him in Texas Monthly. Although all of the sources cited in the article are offline sources, it appears that they were published by reputable media outlets (Billboard, Reno Evening Gazette, The Japan Times, etc). I'm not sure if all of these sources are independent of the subject but based on their titles, it looks like refs 4 through 7 might be independent of the subject.

Weak KeepWeak Delete: Just conceivably the subject's roles in Maybe It's Me (TV series) and Odd Man Out (American TV series) pass the WP:NACTOR threshold, although the shows themselves don't seem all that notable—however, finding sources is very difficult. Her name seems to be quite common, which doesn't help matters. This not-very-good source which provides nothing more than a passing mention may be referring to the subject, but I'm not sure: https://www.celebdirtylaundry.com/2018/general-hospital-spoilers-gh-star-takes-on-brand-new-role-exciting-project-brings-big-drama/.

- Updating my vote above: I've done a more discriminating search at newspapers.com, but all the coverage I've found is pretty minor. I see that no one else has had any luck sources-wise either. The subject only has a weak case for WP:NACTOR, too, as I opined above, so I'm downgrading my vote to "Weak Delete". Dflaw4 (talk) 01:10, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: A problem is the subject (a BLP) lacks significant coverage in reliable sources to support a stand alone article. This article joins approximately 1100 others where IMDb is used as a source but is inappropriate. We end up with a pseudo biography (one paragraph) that contains one or more embedded lists of entertainment credits.

Taking to AFD after a PROD notice was removed for no discernible reason. This WP:INDISCRIMINATE collection of critics doesn't appear to have any criteria aside from being a critic (may have been cherry-picked on some subjective basis) and would be ridiculously long if every critic was included here. Overall, it's just listcruft and we don't need lists of every type of thing imaginable, and I don't see how this could be feasibly managed. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 01:37, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

- Comment I actually see this as being a bit useful! I learned a thing or two reading it, so it is useful in terms of human knowledge.

- ThatMontrealIP, I don't think lists like this are particularly useful because it is so easy to generate them on Wikidata instead (https://w.wiki/MzD took me less than a minute), but, if someone wants to do maintain one, that's well within policy to have one. This particular list fails to meet the definition of listcruft. It is not indiscriminate, the subject Critic is notable, and it is easily verifiable. Guess that's a Keep.

- ThatMontrealIP, I honestly don't have strong opinions about lists(!) this one included. --Theredproject (talk) 00:27, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Room for improvement, but not indiscriminate. Notable critics are a reasonable topic for a list. I'm surprised the nominator thought this would be uncontroversial. pburka (talk) 03:50, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep but reformat - This needs to be sorted out such that the main page is a list of lists. Compare 'lists of journalists'. See 'lists of writers' as well. All that said, I absolutely oppose deletion. We have established precedent for keeping articles structured as 'lists of [occupation]'. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 07:54, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Easily passes WP:LISTN – see this or that, for example. The nomination doesn't "see how this could be feasibly managed" but it seems to have been managing just fine for 16 years now. Our editing policy is to improve such pages, not delete them. Andrew🐉(talk) 08:23, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- How long the page has been around for is irrelevant and that shouldn't be treated as a free pass. Also, with such a wide potential scope, it could easily become messy with unsourced entries and/or people only adding certain types of critics they feel are worth mentioning. Having subpages as other users suggested would avoid such issues. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 13:46, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep but rename as lists of critics with links to standalone lists where they exist. For groupings that don't have such lists, it is easy enough to start an embedded list. For example, searching famous literary critics lends reliable sources that can be used here. Such embedded lists can be spun off whenever they seem a decent length. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:40, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Are you favoring the same idea as ThatMontrealIP and CoffeeWithMarkets by having its content split off into subpages? SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 13:46, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, I am, with the subpages being by the subcategories we see here (not by nationality, for example, as it isn't meaningful on that high of a level). I do want to set a standard, though, with sourcing. Like to have "base" lists of sourced critics to indicate to future editors that additions should be accompanied by sources. Of course that does not always happen, but I think it enables us to "clean out" unsourced additions routinely and link to them on the talk page (or better yet, try to source them). Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:55, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- Forgot to say that I'd be glad to contribute to that end, like with literary critics or dance critics. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:57, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
