- Delete per nom. The article was deleted in 2006, which, to be honest, surprised me, as every article was kept back then. Like at every AfD from the time, there were keep voters who wanted to keep the article based on the band's official site and a blank Allmusic page, but thankfully, there were sensible people who said they are not notable. And as a user said at that Afd (very wisely, might I add): "An Allmusic page without a biography means nothing." Truer words never spoken. So it was deleted. One year later it was recreated by a user whose activity mainly revolved around this article (and had a minor edit in the Tufts University article), and it has managed to stay here since then. 13 years have passed, and they still haven't reached notability. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 11:37, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - The article's preponderance of red links is telling, as nothing this band released or anyone associated with them is notable. The above voter is correct about the empty and useless AllMusic page (not to be confused with a bunch of others on songs called "Friday's Child"), and despite a lengthy career the band generated no media coverage except for occasional gig announcements in their local area. Today they are only present in minor database and retail entries, and a few YouTube videos probably uploaded by themselves. A local band with a few local fans but not eligible for a Wikipedia article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 20:59, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Previously deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Henry Stickmin Collection. Surprise, it's still non-notable and fails WP:GNG.

- Delete and salt per nom. Nostalgia, unfortunately, does not play towards notability. Seeing how there are zero hits for authored sources in WP:VG/SE and zero reviews on Metacritic, the non-notability is rather apparent. The current state of the article has only two secondary sources, both of which cover the same announcement (á la WP:RUNOFTHEMILL) in which Henry Stickmin occurs only as a WP:PASSING mention. IceWelder [✉] 00:58, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
- Strong Keep The Henry Stickman Collection is and was very popular, with nearly 20000 reviews on steam, many more than other games with articles. Its relationship with Innersloth and Among Us also give it lots of notability, with Among Us being one of, if not the most popular game currently. It has also been played by popular online creators, such as Markiplier, Jackepticeye and DanTDM, giving it even more attention. It has a metacritic rating too, albiet unreferenced in the article. https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/the-henry-stickmin-collection I see little reason to delete the article other than it being poorly written. Pladica (talk) 07:03, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
The Henry Stickman Collection is and was very popular, with nearly 20000 reviews on steam, many more than other games with articles.
- Player engagement does not create notability; WP:USERG et al. WP:NVG and WP:GNG have to be met instead; the Steam review count (or lack thereof) is irrelevant.
Its relationship with Innersloth and Among Us also give it lots of notability, with Among Us being one of, if not the most popular game currently.
- Henry Stickmin needs to be notable on its own; it does *not* inherit its notability from Among Us or Innersloth (see also WP:INHERIT).
It has also been played by popular online creators, such as Markiplier, Jackepticeye and DanTDM, giving it even more attention.
- Fails WP:RS, possibly USERG. Imagine the mess we would have if we created an article for every obscure game any random YouTube channel showcased, especially when we can only rely on these YouTubers as sources.
It has a metacritic rating too, albiet unreferenced in the article.
- This is simply untrue. The site says, quite clearly, "Metascore: No score yet based on 0 Critic Reviews". IceWelder [✉] 12:11, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- I don't think it's an "obscure game" in the slightest, with all the attention it's got. And yes I'm more than aware that YouTube channels don't count as reliable sources, but I think this is an exception when multiple of the largest creators on the platform play it, garnering tens of millions of views. Media sources rarely cover these types of games, even when they receive tons of attention like Henry Stickmin, so I think it's silly that it's expected for one to get such coverage in order for it to be counted as "notable". As for the Metascore, that is my mistake, I thought user scores counted. Pladica (talk) 03:49, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- No, we should not make an exception for games that received increased attention from entertainers. Since we cannot use said entertainers as reliable sources, articles with this precedent would either lack any kind of content or be mostly unverifiable. The latter holds true for this article, which is 90% unsourced. Notability is the bare minimum for a topic; enough information available in reliable secondary sources to ensure that all core points of that topic can be covered *and cited*. Why the media hasn't covered Henry Stickmin (or The Henry Stickmin Collection in particular) is honestly beyond me, especially when compared to the likes of Deeeer Simulator, another popular streamer game that has received at least some coverage. In the unlikely event that Henry Stickmin becomes notable by Wikipedia's terms, it can easily be recreated. Until then, the Henry Stickmin Wiki will likely have to do.

- Delete and salt I love Henry Stickmin, but it's already peaked in August 2020. The fandom is going to shrink and pop in a couple of months tops. At this point we should wait until Puffballs or Innersloth becomes notable enough to get their own articles and mention it in those pages. In the meantime redirect Henry Stickmin to Among Us. 2603:7000:1F00:6B91:8D80:8C1:2267:6D8D (talk) 02:34, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

- Comment I found a lot of coverage about him by pro-CHP/anti-AKP sources, mainly by Sözcü: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8]. 1 is about him standing up for a citizen who got a fine for a weird reason. 2 is about him announcing the minimum wage at the municipality. 3 is about him saying he is not going to resign (because he got COVID). 4, 5, 6 and 7 are mainly about him getting COVID and recovering from it. 8 is about him “getting in action” after warnings for upcoming heavy rain. I would consider these sources having a bit more neutral POV: [9] and [10], about him getting COVID. Most of the sources are heavily biased and can be seen as "propaganda" and are therefore not considered reliable. The 2 remaining sources are because he got COVID. WP:POLOUTCOMES says "Mayors of cities of at least regional prominence have usually survived AFD", which is quite confusing, hence I’m not recording a vote. ~Styyx Talk? ^-^ 17:45, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I'm not sure how mayors are elected in Turkey, but it is obvious that he's not just merely a politician. He holds a public office, and like many other mayors influences the livelihood of the citizens. With that regard, he could actually be notable. Keivan.fTalk 23:18, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Keivan.f: There are local elections every 5 years. Böcek got elected in 2019 Turkish local elections. ~Styyx Talk? ^-^ 10:54, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
- Strong Keep It definitely passes NPOL. First, he is the mayor of one of the biggest cities in Turkey, and it's a province-wide office because of the establishment of metropolitan municipalities, which comprise the whole province. Second, he has a great coverage (at least in general media or local news) in addition to the sources that supplied by Styyx, due to the projects that implemented or planned in his mayoralty. ([11], [12], [13])Ahmetlii (talk) 15:05, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep He definitely passes NPOL on the basis of coverage in the Turkish national papers. See the Hurriyet articles e.g. [14]; and Cumhuriyet similarly - [15]; Sozcu has multiple articles e.g. [16]. Granted, a lot of them are about Böcek's bout with the Coronavirus but he is clearly notable enough to generate many articles directly about him in the major national newspapers.

- Question - @Mccapra: Orange County, California has a population of 3 million, making it the 6th most populous county in the US. The Orange County Board of Supervisors has 5 members, meaning that each member represents roughly 600,000 people. It is reasonable to presume that such politicians would have a significant level of coverage that meets the requirements of WP:NPOL. Is there something about this specific article that doesn't meet the notability guidelines, or would you apply the same reasoning to the other members of the Board of Supervisors? Edge3 (talk) 04:07, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment well for elected positions below state level I think mayors (but not Council/Assembly members) of major cities such as Chicago, SF or Atlanta are notable. Below that it’s not so clear. Some may be notable, but as far as I know the consensus is that generally they’re not. Mccapra (talk) 18:44, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- We certainly do have several Wikipedia articles about council / board members of large metropolitan areas. For example, see Chicago City Council, as every alderman appears to have an article. On the other hand, you're correct that there's a lot of grey area. (Compare Cook County Board of Commissioners, where not every commissioner has an article.) WP:NPOL does not set clear guidelines for county-level politicians. WP:POLOUTCOMES notes that "American county-level legislators are not considered inherently notable", but also counters that "precedent has tended to favor keeping members of the main citywide government of internationally famous metropolitan areas". So to me, this particular article is not a clear case either way. I'll take a closer look at the sources later today, so that I can make a better-informed recommendation. Edge3 (talk) 19:15, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - I've reviewed some sources, as I promised I would do in the thread above. It appears that Chaffee is the first Democrat to serve on the Orange County Board of Supervisors in a very long time. [17][18]. Additionally, his district has roughly 600,000 constituents, which is notable itself, due to the size and scope of his legislative influence. State legislators are already presumed to be notable under WP:NPOL, and his district is larger than many state legislative districts throughout the US. Indeed, it is even larger than the smallest US state. Edge3 (talk) 00:00, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: I second Edge3's opinion. This article is notable enough that it should be expanded, not deleted. OfficerCow (talk) 08:50, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: Subject receives SIGCOV in latimes.com and ocregister.com, as well as in the Fullerton Observer. Orange County is larger (population) than 19 states (it is roughly the size of Utah, Nevada, Puerto Rico or Iowa), if Orange County was a city, it would be the third largest in the US (larger than Chicago, Houston or Philadelphia), it is the 8th largest US county by GDP (putting it ahead of nations such as Ukraine, Czech Republic, Peru, Hungary, Kuwait) so this is not your average county. It is also the main suburb of Los Angeles, a relationship which adds to the weight of the position. Being the mayor and long time council member of a city with 150,000 population that is also a significant education hub in Southern California is signficant. // Timothy :: talk 16:30, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

it seems a copyvio. The whole body paragraph of COSCO Shipping Lines#China Ocean Shipping Co. followed the flow of the official company history located here http://www.coscoshipping.com/col/col6862/index.html, written in Chinese. Some sentence structure also very very similar.
- e.g. 从此,中远开始了国有企业“贷款买船,赢利还贷”的发展模式,自力更生发展远洋船队。 = rapidly grew its fleet using the business philosophy of “Buying Ships with Bank Loans and Returning Loans with Profits
- 1964年4月1日,中远公司的第二个分公司上海远洋运输分公司(以下简称上海分公司)宣告成立,成立时的旧址在上海市中山东一路5号,= In 1964, China Ocean Shipping Co. established a second subsidiary, Shanghai Ocean Shipping Co. at No. 5 Zhongshan East No.1 Road in Shanghai
And here is the example from the second section of the article
- 1993年10月5日,中远投资(新加坡)有限公司在新加坡成功上市,吹响了中远全面进军资本市场的号角,同时也成为第一家进入海外资本市场的中国国有企业
- In 1993, COSCO Group listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange, becoming the first Chinese SOE to be listed on a foreign capital market
I should not quote too much , otherwise the Afd itself would became a copyvio.

- Keep - COSCO Shipping Lines does not meet Wikipedia's deletion policy:
- The article's content is properly verified (WP:V).
- There is no original research (WP:NOR) in the article.
- The article is written from a WP:NPOV and is free of puffery. Numerous third-party sources have been cited. The content does not reflect any marketing of the organization.
- There is no vanity (WP:VANITY) in the article.
- The article does not contain inaccurate claims.
COSCO Shipping Lines is obviously a very well-written article and contains plenty of reliable, secondary sources. The nominator's rationale that it is "copyvio" is not entirely true. There are sentences that convey information from the corporate webpage, but the syntax is not identical. Also, these sentences are only a very small portion of the article. Most of those sentences cannot be excluded or rephrased because they are direct quotations of the company's business ideology. One of the sentences mentioned by the nominator is a location address, so absolutely it will match with the corporate webpage. Most importantly, this article is the flagship subsidiary of COSCO Shipping Group, so it undoubtedly meets WP:CORP. We cannot merge it with any other Wikipedia article as there is next to zero WP:Overlap. Also, we have plenty of articles of other COSCO Shipping subsidiaries: COSCO Shipping Energy, COSCO Shipping Ports, COSCO Shipping Development. Why not also delete those for lack of WP:CORP?? Finally, I would like to note that this editor, @Matthew hk:, has accused me – the creator of the nominated article – of being a paid editor. Thus, I suspect his nomination to delete COSCO Shipping Lines represents a conflict of interest. – CartleR255 (talk) 22:31, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment CartleR255, I really don't understand your move or rationale on articles. COSCO Shipping Lines, is a division of COSCO Shipping, which engaged in container liner. COSCO Shipping Lines' predecessor also in that field. COSCO is the predecessor of COSCO Shipping. So, you tried again and again to merge COSCO and China Shipping Group into COSCO Shipping, but at the same time content fork by creating COSCO Shipping Lines?
- COSCO Shipping Lines' may merit to have it own article, if it pass WP:NCORP and/or WP:GNG. But since the main business of COSCO Shipping is container liner (the company also has bulk carrier and port operator divisions), so this time it is not WP:overlap? You also agreed may discussion on merging COSCO Shipping Holdings, which is the listed company within COSCO Shipping group as the direct parent company of the liner, into COSCO Shipping Group, so why COSCO Shipping Lines is the exception on overlap instead?
- Moreover, your existing content in this article title, COSCO Shipping Lines, most of them are not the content for that business division, but the company history of COSCO itself (such as Singapore IPO has no context to related to the container liner business, Or those non container liner businesses wiki content. Note that the Chinese name of COSCO Shipping Lines 中远海运集装箱运输有限公司, 集装箱 = Container, thus flooding the article with non-liner content is not suitable, the right place may be COSCO Shipping, which also created by you) , and with promotional tone that seem WP:COPYVIO by close paraphrased from the company version. Also, people seldom add "Awards" section in company article with non-notable award, or putting full address of the company into the article (which itself a close paraphrase of company version of the history in their webpage). Thus, chopping all unrelated, or copyvio, or promotional content. The article has not enough content at all and may be all page history need to be hidden due to copyvio cleanup process. Matthew hk (talk) 21:34, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
- Lastly, the flagship subsidiary is COSCO Shipping Holdings, a listed company, not the ocean liner division, which itself is not listed. I don't like WP:OTHERSTUFFEXIST logic, but it is totally fine to place the content of parent company and subsidiary together if they basically have the same main business (unless you argue parent company is a holding company that have no business). For example, we only has one article for Geely instead of Geely Auto and Geely Holdings. Or Swire and Swire Pacific is not separate article (yet? Swire Properties is a separate article BTW) Also Emperor Group. Matthew hk (talk) 21:39, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment My rationale to keep COSCO Shipping Lines is that it has a substantial business operation with several details and history (thereby passing WP:CORP). You can easily find secondary sources for COSCO Shipping Lines to verify the content. Also, there is all the history of COSCON and CSCL. Whereas COSCO Shipping Holdings (and its predecessors) is just a holding company, so it suffices to mention it in COSCO Shipping parent group. You may argue that my rationale is arbitrary. However, think of this, I cannot find enough noteworthy content to justify keeping COSCO Shipping Holdings as a separate article, which is why I agreed to your proposed merge. Also @Matthew hk: please visit your talk page for more details. Cartle R255 15:54, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

- Merge per the agreement evidently reached above. I think it's noteworthy but am not sure of the need for a separate article, unless the parent one becomes too unwieldly. I am also not sure of the copyvio issue; while I agree to content does appear similar, in previous forms of the article (e.g. Special:Diff/992196646 it looks like there were citations for the sentences "rapidly grew its fleet..." (third-party sources, to be fair) and "In 1964, China Ocean Shipping Co..." (the company's English about page). Disregarding questions of whether novelly translated material is in itself a copyright violation in the degree that a straight copy/paste would be, the citations seem acceptable, if imperfect. WhinyTheYounger (WtY)(talk, contribs) 22:10, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. The nominator hasn't stated a proper rationale for bringing the AFD nomination. One should take suspected copyright violations to WP:COPYPROB and the WP:AFD pages will become even more tangled if we start to conflate the two issues. In any case, COSCO SHIPPING Lines is, as the article says, the world's third largest container shipping company and independently meets WP:GNG. The article needs significant improvement but that's a separate issue. Fiachra10003 (talk) 16:17, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. I'll just point out that the article has changed radically since it was first nominated. I edited it to see if I could rescue it, eliminating some of the issues the nominator pointed out, and found that the offending passages had been rewritten or removed.

The sourcing is just announcements about him playing at clubs or various benefits, and in at least one case that I could find, it looks like the local paper cut and pasted a bio he provided. There's also a community newsletter used as a source. He has two CDs for sale on Amazon, but they don't seem to have any reviews or other sourcing to suggest notability. There's nowhere near enough reliable sourcing to substantiate the bio and the claims it makes, and certainly nothing that independently validates that he was ever at the top of the clarinet field.

- Comment I know a lot of the articles look like they are merely announcements that he played, but they are quite detailed if you can find them. I didn't use a source that said, "according to bobsnyder.com" for most of its facts, but no one else did anything like that, and each source had different information. With no evidence suggesting they didn't, I concluded each of these journalists did more than just use what was provided. I will admit there are conflicting reports about which album contains the notable recording. And it is the recording of "Amazing Grace" that makes him notable, if anything. How you source this I don't know, but if DJ Joe Lacina on his nationwide show had "Bob Snyder Time" every Saturday night as he did until shortly before I created this, that has to count for something.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 18:34, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sandstein 21:34, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I should have done this to begin with. It is quite logical to want to know more about the man who was a featured artist every week on Joe Lacina's national radio show. While I can't provide good sources for this, every Saturday night at 11 the same song on a clarinet was played and Lacina would announce "It's Bob Snyder time." That in itself would prove notability, if I could prove it. At the very least, it provides a logical reason to do the research, and as with so many topics I researched, I allowed Wikipedia to benefit from my efforts. I didn't understand about independent sources or notability back then.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 21:13, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I was told to list some sources that seem to demonstrate notability. If you can find these, there is a lot of detail, and while I can't prove the journalists didn't merely get their information from what was provided by Bob Snyder himself, there is nothing like "according to bobsnyder.com" in any of these.

Fails WP:ORG. Per WP:BEFORE I tried to do some research on the org, and I assumed sources might have been easy to miss because of its somewhat generic name after finding nothing of note. After checking the eight sources in the article I am more confident in stating this org is simply non-notable. None qualify as independent, reliable, and significant coverage:
- Source 1 is written by the founder.
- Sources 2 and 3 are in Korean, but a Google translate look suggests the articles are both brief interviews with the founder, and they do not detail Good of All's work in any meaningful sense.
- Source 4 is a release from Good of All by PR Newswire, and thus is WP:SELF and WP:PROMOTION
- Source 5 is an op-ed by the founder
- Source 6 is an almost identical op-ed, again by the founder
- Source 7 is by the founder
- Source 8 hints at funding some sort of scholarship, but the link is dead. I found the article here—it's from a Substack, and the total money disbursed was only $16,000.

Newspapers.com yields [23], which states that John and Frank Ratto constructed a dock to facilitate the transfer of livestock. Newspapers.com has a few hits about the sewage outfall. GBooks had nothing significant. JSTOR had nothing. Passing reference as a trivial sewage outfall does not meet #1 of WP:GEOLAND. I found no evidence that there was ever a community at this location.

Rather promotional article (but not quite G11 in my view); the article is currently supported by two sources: one is an interview (WP:INTERVIEW), the other is a passing mention in an article about an event.

CommentKeep Four papers cited more than 100 times (325, 163, 161, 153), total citations 1761 [33]. Overall h-index of 21 is low to borderline. Bioinformatics is a high citation field. I found several references to the article subject having served as the first rector of Abdullah Gül University, which appears to be the turkish equivalent of a university president. These were not RS, but they may exist in turkish if someone with the right language background is willing to look. So it is possible this could satisfy criteria #6 of WP:PROF if reliable sources could be found and AGU is considered a major institution. MoneciousTriffid (talk) 14:20, 26 December 2020 (UTC)- Updated from comment to keep based on the additional turkish language sources described in the comment below mine. MoneciousTriffid (talk) 21:47, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep I found some reliable sources talking about his projects [34] [35]. Also has been covered by Hürriyet after he resigned from his position as rector/university president of the Abdullah Gül University and by Sabah after it was found out that he had connections with FETÖ. The rest I found were unreliable sources. As MoneciousTriffid pointed out, the subject meets criteria #6 of WP:PROF, thus should be kept. ~Styyx Talk? ^-^ 17:37, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. I added the 4 most cited papers. There are 4 papers with over 150 citations. including a comprehensive review and a standard book, all published by major mainstream scientific publishers. This shows him to be an influence in his subject, and meets WP:PROF, This is further shown by his being head of a major university. (Overall h values are meaningless for notability , as here. they do not discriminate between someone with 350, 250, 150, 4 and someone with 8, 5, 4, 4 both individuals would have an h value of 4. One has a notable record, the other is totally unimportant in their subject. That such numbers are given by universities , and cited in WP, shows here shows the misunderstanding of bioinformatics, both in those writing PR and those writing WP. Eugene Garfield , who invented modern citation analysis , warned against this in his work. His warning seems to have had no effect.

The mentioned articles are about an album's non-single tracks that fail WP:NSONGS or WP:GNG. While these songs did chart on the South Korean singles chart, it should be reminded that chart positions may be notable enough that a search for coverage in reliable independent sources will be successful.
A quick search through search engines has resulted in little notable third-party coverage, and most of the articles that cover these topics are mostly fanpages/lyrics websites. The current sources in these articles are mostly reserved to album reviews, and thus it fails notability requirements: Coverage of a song in the context of an album review does not establish notability.
My suggestion is to redirect these articles into the songs' parent albums' articles. HĐ (talk) 03:55, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to Lotus (Christina Aguilera album): Red Hot Kinda Love, Lotus Intro, Sing for Me (Christina Aguilera song), Around the World (Christina Aguilera song), Circles (Christina Aguilera song)

- As I mentioned above, chart positions do not warrant notability. I do not currently see any coverage beyond album reviews and discussions; most of the articles have the following structure: Background (album recording/production/release date) → Composition (CFORK from album reviews) → Critical reception (also CFORK from album reviews) → Chart performance (does not equate to notability), HĐ (talk) 03:55, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

- @RavenPrey: Perhaps you'll find WP:ATA useful. They are not (objectively) "important album tracks", and "favorite songs of many" is a poor reason to keep. HĐ (talk) 15:14, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- @HĐ: Several other users here have already cited objective reasons, yet they haven't been good enough for some. Walk Away on its own has several live performances and has qualitative value. Keep it.
- @RavenPrey: Sorry, but I have responded to their reasons per WP:NSONGS. Just because they have cited reasons does not mean that their reasons are strong enough for a keep consensus. If you can find sources to improve the articles, please do so. Keep in mind however, these sources must comply with notability requirements. HĐ (talk) 15:57, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to Lotus, Stripped, and Bionic as the coverage seems to be limited to album reviews. I have done a Google search to see if there is any coverage, and the only thing I can pull up is this Bustle article (here) on "Red Hot Kinda Love", and that is not enough to support significant coverage on its own. When I did the search, I mostly saw people talking about these songs in the context of the album. I'm slightly surprised "Glam" did not get more coverage since it was initially supposed to be the lead single from that album. Aoba47 (talk) 03:36, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
- Perhaps "Glam" did generate some buzz, but sadly potential sources may have been rotten... HĐ (talk) 03:55, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep The songs nominated for deletion are as notable and worth keeping on Wikipedia as Taylor Swift's songs (and she has a lot of articles on separate songs). They charted on mainstream charts (GAON, OCC, Billboard, among others) without being released as singles. They were performed on television (SNL for "Walk Away") or during widely seen concerts (Hope for Haiti - "Lift Me Up"). They created enough buzz to be kept here, and the sources cited are definitely not only reviews. If for some strange reason those songs are meant to be deleted, I want to know why these were not nominated for deletion: "Passenger", "Whiplash", "Mmm Papi". AngelOfDestiny (talk) 13:47, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- @AngelOfDestiny: I hate to say that "other stuff" rationale does not work, but I have some responses to your points:
- Chart positions do not warrant notability in its own right (see WP:NSONGS).
- Live performances also do not guarantee notability unless the performance is widely covered by the media. Most of these articles have the same structure: background (album production) → composition (album reviews) → critical reception (album reviews) → some lower-tier chart positions
- I am pretty sure the "buzz" is limited to a certain audience and certainly not of public interest. If you can prove there are standalone third-party coverage on the songs (i.e. single reviews, analysis on song structure/lyrical content etc.), then feel free to improve the articles. I am not seeing sources that are "not only reviews", besides sources on the conception of the albums and certainly not the songs per-se.
- If you find articles that fail notability, you can feel free to proceed to nominate them for deletion yourself. Some of the articles here were nominated by myself for GANs years ago, and now as WP:NSONGS indicate, they shouldn't have existed in the first place. And regarding the songs that you cited, they are not under my watchlist, so thank you for raising my attention. I will sure nominate them for deletion/redirect if I find them unsatisfactory of notability requirements. HĐ (talk) 14:14, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- Update: I don't understand why you brought up the issue with Taylor Swift songs' articles, but from first glance the existing Taylor Swift song articles qualify for notability. There is no series of album tracks from a single album (even "It's Nice to Have a Friend", which received a standalone review by Billboard, or "This Love (Taylor Swift song)", which went platinum in the U.S., do not have respective articles because they do not have significant third-party coverage, which fails notability), and articles on B-sides all make sure that they satisfy notability (i.e. "Innocent (Taylor Swift song)" is about the Kanye West controversy and its performance at the VMAs did generate commentary instead of mere reporting, or "The Last Great American Dynasty" has more than two interpretations regarding its lyrics). So there you go, HĐ (talk) 14:26, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- I'd argue that some of those articles you mentioned should be deleted/redirected too. Foxnpichu (talk) 19:03, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect all to respective parent albums. Aside from album reviews (which don't count towards notability), I'm only seeing breif mentions for "Red Hot Kinda Love", "Glam", "Lift Me Up", and "Walk Away", and none of these on their own are enough to warrant articles for the tracks. Charts (or lack thereof) are entirely moot in this case. The listed songs simply never qualified for separate pages. I also suspect that at least part of this came from fans wanting to write about music they liked, and while I'm sure they meant well, they would've been better off working on the album prose and such.

- Redirect all of these to their respective parent albums. My reading of the WP:NMUSIC guidelines is that it's somewhat exceptional for a song released on an album to be notable independently of the album or the artist. The song itself would have to be a reasonable subject of research, having its own independent coverage in teritary sources. These articles, on the other hand, are fundamentally WP:ALLPLOT, if I can apply the principles of that here - descriptions of the songs themselves, who created them, detailed and quoted critical reception of each individually, but void entirely of the social and cultural context around the songs. Which is probably because there isn't any, because they are all part of the same artistic project. They are not independently significant. The "background" sections are backgrounds on Aguilera, not the songs - all but Glam and Lift Me Up thread an indentical sequence of facts (Bratman, Burlseque, The Voice, Maroon 5, Jay Leno), reinforcing the lack of individual distinguishing and significant context that might render an individual song notable. The background information would be more appropriately covered in either articles about the albums or about Aguilera herself. But there is little to merge - all these articles collectively have little content specific to their subject. What content there is relies too heavily on verbatim restating quotes of critics. Some of the articles document specific performances of the songs - planned performances, commercially intended, and no more notable than any other curated live event. If such events are notable, the live performance of a particular piece could be included there if important, but we are not building a WP:DIRECTORY for the cross-referencing of songs with each live performance of those songs no matter how notable the artist. In the case of Walk Away, the article relies on the sheet music of the song as a primary source reference for what little song-specific context exists. Nearly every source in Lift Me Up is about Bionic (the album in which it was published), not the song. There's nothing here to write about, and frankly the fractal creation of articles about nearly every song by an artist just to catalogue their respective performances and repeat the words of their critics in detail while recapitulating (in each) the life of the performer mostly in her own words is inappropriate here. With nothing to merge, redirect. FalconK (talk) 00:53, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Saotura is apparently here as a denialist of Armenian genocide, repeatedly adding stuff to counteract the idea that Turks killed thousands of Armenians in a purposeful genocide. Saotura introduces instead the idea that Armenians are targeting Turks for no reason at all.[36][37] On his user page, he says that a living person, Kurdish nationalist leader Abdullah Öcalan, must be killed.[38] I'm afraid Saotura is WP:NOTHERE to build the encyclopedia.

- Removing un- or poorly sourced content doesn't solve the POV issue, though. Just for example: the section on WW1 is well-sourced, but is heavily biased as it fails to mention these events happened in the context of the Armenian genocide. The same goes for listing every single Armenian massacre of Azerbaijanis in the Karabakh war while failing to provide any context on said war. While sourced, I don't think anyone would argue that these sections present a neutral point of view. Also, Anti-Azerbaijani sentiment's section on Armenia does a fine job of presenting the topic in a neutral manner, so I wonder why a separate article is needed.

Such topics are covered in Wikipedia, like for example Anti-Armenian sentiment in Azerbaijan. Maybe the name could be adjusted as well. Grandmaster 10:31, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

- Keep There is not any clear reason for deleting the whole page except the deleted paragraph by Saotura; however, a deletion of the paragraph does not mean that it should be deleted. If there's a problem about writing, sources, or information deletion; this should be addressed on the talk page, not in here. The page itself is also pretty long (27,558 characters); and therefore, I'm against to the deletion or redirection/merging. Wikipedia is not for ad hominem.

Update: I've removed all irrelevant material from the page (things committed outside Armenia & most things related to Armenian Genocide). Rest of the material seems relevant and well-sourced. Any other issue of POV needs to be addressed in the talk page of the article and is not a proper reason for deletion. Do any of you still have a problem with the current cleaned-up version?

Much less racism as it is currently mentioned in the lead. In many countries it is represented with an Embassy. Their relations are mostly not really close, but there is a dialogue.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 21:55, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

- Keep: not the Armenian genocide, but other events should remain that happend between Turks & Armenians. Except for the Armenian genocide, there were massacres against Turks after 1915 events such as even in 80s Asala massacres it is very absurd to link this to the events in 1915 and erase the others between 1800s to 1915 & 1915 beyond today. There has been a frown since the 1800s between two nations. The users who want to be deleted the Armenia section above are with mostly already turkey & turko-phobes.. If I say 2 + 2? to these people they will say thats 5 cuz their emotions are in the forefront. They are not in the direction of logic and accuracy and they want such things to be erased. In short, the deletion of the Armenian genocide is debatable but not entire Armenia section.Cengizsogutlu (talk) 12:36, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sandstein 09:48, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment on updates Despite the attempts to make the article seem more presentable, none of the issues have been resolved. There is no mention of over a century of Turkish crimes against humanity, which would show the article isn't about "hostility, intolerance, or racism". There is not even a single mention of the Armenian Genocide. And before someone tries to sneak in a trivia mention of the genocide to try fixing this, doing so would only prove this article isn't about "Anti-Turkism". The article remains a WP:SOAPBOX of selective information from either unreliable or POV sources. The article attempts to blame the Armenian–Tatar massacres of 1905–07 on "Anti-Turkism" with no mention of massacres committed by Tartars, and while Kazemzadeh's claim that "it is impossible to pin the blame for the massacres on either side" is carried over, the sources of Walker and Villari blaming Tartars are not carried over. World War I has no mention of the Armenian Genocide, and the numbers the article alleges Rummel gave are actually from a Turkish statistician which Rummel is casting doubt on. And somehow Soviet Russia deporting Azeris from Armenia can be blamed on "Anti-Turkism" in Armenia. The first Nagorno-Karabakh war makes no mention of Azeri mob violence being the cause of it, such as the Askeran clash and Sumgait pogrom, because this would again ruin the "Anti-Turkism" claim. And the 2020 war fails to mention that the Azeris were the first to target civilians in the 2020 bombardment of Stepanakert, which isn't mentioned at all. Many of the sources are still unreliable. Some are in Azeri or Turkish, others are written by pro-Turkic figures such as the bribed shill Svante Cornell. This article was clearly made (by a now indefinitely blocked user) out of spite for the Anti-Armenian sentiment in Azerbaijan article. He wanted to create an equivalent article for Armenia even though no similar sentiment existed. --Steverci (talk) 19:36, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- No. When I reviewed List of ASALA attacks linked during this discussion I saw the example of bombing a movie theater in Lebanon for showing Turkish films. Political grievances do not justify hate crimes or violence against innocents. Armenians are allowed to be angry and in our culture we believe in free speech and encourage people to engage with difficult political feelings through appropriate channels - free speech, art, cinema, and meditation. But we don't tolerate, condone, glorify or advocate for vigilante vengeance attacks. If the sources cited in the article don't support the inclusion of some of this content, that should be discussed on the talk page, not just TNT because it's easier. Spudlace (talk) 06:19, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep with reservations. Articles such as this are always problematic, and they often degenerate into a laundry list of grievances (which this is) with no attempt at explaining the complex history of conflicts between the different groups of people. It is therefore arguably a POV WP:SOAPBOX, but deleting it would simply be a denial that such sentiment exists, and that would be wrong too since I think the subject is notable enough to exist as a separate article. I would also suggest that those who object to the article work to improve it, and instead of edit-warring, agree on a framework so that it can be improved (for example, what sources to use). I would recommend adding a section on its causes (e.g. on Armenian Genocide which is by and large recognised by many countries), and trim the list of incidences, because frankly in all conflicts you get atrocities committed by both sides, there is no need to list all of them, only the important ones need to be given. I'd also remove all content that rely exclusively on partisan sources, use only those from independent sources. It is also too heavily skewed to the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflicts, which is not appropriate given the title, since it is not specifically about these conflicts. A wider view on this is more useful. Hzh (talk) 23:08, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as per WP:TNT. I think that this topic does merit an article, but as of now this is a laundry list of occurrences that do not help in the slightest in explaining the phenomenon in Armenia. A list of random atrocities committed by Armenians contributes almost nothing to actually learning about the topic itself; a good, neutral, article on this topic would be great, but as of now it is just an indiscriminate list that helps no one at all in understanding the topic.

- Keep Lots of claims about this article being propaganda/POV/offensive, but I see a subject which passes GNG.★Trekker (talk) 19:33, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep and split I think the article should be split in Anti-Turkism in Armenia (anti-Turkey stuff) and Anti-Azerbaijanism in Armenia. As far as I know, the conflicts between Turks and Armenians and between Azerbaijanis and Armenians are not interrelated. Armenians mostly dislike Turks because of the Armenian Genocide and dislike Azerbaijanis because of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Grouping both in a single article is like trying to team up both nations against Armenia. Also, there is no other article dedicated to anti-Turkism (as to the whole Turkic peoples) on Wikipedia, so no common practice is followed. Super Ψ Dro 12:53, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Anti-Turkish sentiment in Armenia is a redirect to this page. Anti-Turkism in the sense of all Turkic people is tough to source, and I wouldn't know which movement or country is against Turkic people in general. That there exist nationalists in almost every country is clear, but their sentiments are (as to my humble knowledge) not exclusively directed against Turkic people but against foreigners of several ethnicities and nationalities.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 15:37, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Anti-Azerbaijani sentiment also redirects to here. The article suggests that if people in Armenia are against Turkish or Azerbaijani warfare, are against all Turkic people all-together.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 16:30, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- "Anti-Turkism" doesn't mean being against all Turkic peoples, it can be any one of the Turkic peoples. Regardless, I think the article should be renamed "Anti-Azerbaijani sentiment in Armenia" since there's nothing about any Turkic people other than Azeris in the article right now. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 16:34, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

New article which violates WP:EXCEPTIONAL, WP:RGW and WP:FRINGE.

Look at the template! Template:Inventions These are common articles. Any problems can be solved by regular editing, there no reason to delete everything. Dream Focus 09:09, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - the list is way too broad and very weakly substantiated; many entries are wholly uncited; the main source is unreliable; and many of the claims do not even assert Egyptian invention, e.g. "Flag or Emblem – As early as the Predynastic times, each nome had its own standard": well, maybe they did, but other empires had similar things. Or "some scholars have argued that..."; "Evidence ... suggests the presence of..."; "...was used in Egypt as early as..." - these and many others are not proof of "invention" (just deleting these 3 examples won't begin to fix the problem). Delete as a hopeless ragbag. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:17, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep An absurd nomination which is so preposterous that it's a sign of Wikipedia's senility that it is being taken seriously. Let's count the ways this is wrong:
- It is clearly contrary to policies such as WP:ATD, "If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page."
- The contrary idea of WP:TNT – that we have to "destroy the village to save it" – is not a policy nor even a guideline – and is contrary to WP:BLANKING.
- The topic clearly passes WP:LISTN as a quick browse soon finds sources such as The Journal of Egyptian Archaeology which says things like "it follows that metallic copper was an Egyptian discovery ... on present evidence, both glazed steatite and glazed quartz were Egyptian inventions."
- The existing page has 359 citations of sources including Encyclopedia Britannica; Encyclopedia of Ancient Egypt; numerous histories of mathematics and a variety of books from respectable university presses. The idea that we should just wipe all these out and start again from scratch is obviously disruptive.
- We have so many similar pages for other countries that there's a template {{Inventions}} and category. These include countries such as Azerbaijan and Bulgaria which not so well known as a cradle of civilisation. And WP:OSE explains that "the encyclopedia should be consistent in the content that it provides or excludes".
- There's a vague wave to WP:FRINGE but that cuts both ways. The idea that river valley civilizations tended to produce hydraulic empires as a result of the need for engineering to control the water is so well-established that it is more of an orthodoxy than fringe.
- Andrew🐉(talk) 12:20, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment This is an interesting case where I think WP:CLEANUP may be more appropriate than deletion. The delete commentators are correct that a lot of the listed entries are overbroad and potentially original research while the entire list appears to be overly focused on a peculiar idea as to what "discovery" means. On the other hand, knowing that there is Egyptian provenance for such things as measuring the circumference of the Earth is a perfectly encyclopedic enterprise. Coming up with rigorous and solid WP:LISTCRIT and removing the cruft definitely needs to be done, but I'm not convinced that we are in WP:TNT territory here as of yet. jps (talk) 13:40, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

- Keep -- This is a fairly harmless list article. Whether everything in it is accurate is neither here nor there. If there are errors, they should be removed by editing, not deletion. Because Egyptian history goes to 3rd millennium, Egypt has a lot of firsts, but many will be first recorded, rather than actually first. I doubt the Egyptians invented swimming, but they provided the first picture of it, for example. List articles no not necessarily need sources, as the object to to link to articles (which will - or should - be sourced). Peterkingiron (talk) 17:41, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

This Jimmy Jackson seems to have been a background session player who knew lots of famous people and got them to appear on this album, the only release bearing his name. The album also has no reliable coverage; I can only find it in basic database entries of obscure 70s albums, and even those are rare. The article's creator may be a collector who wants to spread the word about a lost classic, but there's just not enough info available to do that here. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:42, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

- Keep - As I did say (and was noted by the other editor), is I did not have a lot of sources to go off of here. But below are some reasons as to why I think that the page is notable enough to stay on Wikipedia.
1. The notability of the people working on the album. You have people like Gene Page, Ray Parker, Jr., Roland Bautista, King Errison, Bobbye Hall, Melvin Ragin and Dick Hyde were all in the process of making this album. Key players that would go on to be in or were already in notable groups, people who had previously played with Marvin Gaye as session players, and to create chart topping hits (Parker creating the #1 Billboard Hot 100, Ghostbusters). This shows both the humble beginnings and strides that these artists were in during their most prolific period. Even if you don't hear the music itself, the musician connections are worthwhile just by themselves.
2. The possibility of creating more links for pages. While creating this page, I found there were several credits that I was adding that didn't already have a page on Wikipedia for them. Take for instance, Milton Sincoff, a creative director specializing in Creative Packaging at Buddah Records. Milton would design such notable album covers such as "Still Bill" by Bill Withers, "Coming From Reality" by Rodriguez, "Superfly", "Back To The World", "Sweet Exorcist", "Got To Find A Way" by Curtis Mayfield, and "The Baby Huey Story (The Living Legend)" by Baby Huey, just to name a few. There isn't an article for Milton on Wikipedia yet, but it's possible this could lead to the start of creating a new page. That's how this page was created, because I was provided an outlet to do so from Dick Hyde's page.
3. To spread awareness about the album and Jimmy. What's so engaging about the album and the artist himself is the lack of information that's online about him. We don't know for sure when he was born, and the only way I was able to come to the conclusion that he died was because of a comment that was left by his son on nearly all single rips of Mr. Jackson's singles that are on Youtube, stating that 4/30/2003 was the date of his passing. An effort of this page being created was also to help visibility heighten of the artist as well, so that perhaps more information will be created and contributed by others who knew them personally. I went through all the pages on Google that referenced Rollin' Dice with Jimmy Jackson, and there was not a whole lot.
For certain what I can say is that the single "Rollin' Dice" was released sometime during 1975 or before then because of one Newspaper article I found from a June 18th, 1975 article in the Manchester Journal Enquirer. It mentions that Jimmy "made two "soul" recordings on the Buddah label", and gives the most information that I was able to find on Mr. Jackson by far. Police officer, soul singer, 6' 3", and son of a gospel singer. It's things like this article that can help others view and get motivated to contribute to the site as well. Here are the links for the Manchester Journal article and currently my completed documentation on Jimmy Jackson, complete with images and links to the sources: Manchester: https://newspaperarchive.com/manchester-journal-inquirer-jun-18-1975-p-36/ Image Library (contains Manchester Article): https://imgur.com/a/4RBCzef
After assessing the situation, I can understand reason for concern. Discogs is seen by Wikipedia as being unreliable due to the user sourced information, and also I assume AllMusic is to an extent if it isn't being used for reviews. But that's where the difficulties lie, I can find no chart history and no published reviews of the album. I couldn't even find a mention of it in Billboard (verbal or chart history on their website), the closest I got was a group called The Hitchhikers doing a cover of the song "Rollin' Dice" (referred to as just "Rolling Dice") from a 1976 issue: https://books.google.com/books?id=FSUEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PT89&dq=billboard+rollin%27+dice+1976&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjbqIDI6ertAhUPCs0KHX0WDPQQ6AEwAHoECAAQAg#v=onepage&q=billboard%20rollin'%20dice%201976&f=false
For other information on the album, it's sparse to say the least if we are not talking about user-sourced information from websites. What I can say in my defense is that I own this album personally, and that's where I was able to get a correct list of credits from. I cross-referenced with Discogs & Allmusic to both learn and confirm the credits I was listing and linking to existing pages with were correct. The way that I look at it, the page will be a major way of possibly leading to sources to credit as well if the right person reads it and publishes an article about it (from a credible source, of course). But I feel that won't happen otherwise if the page is deleted. For conduct on what should be done with the page, I'm not sure otherwise with the given situation. If it comes to the consensus despite my explanation on the topic, I'll be disappointed but understanding as to why it happened.
Thank you for your interest in making sure the right thing is done for the article and for the website, and look forward to seeing what others have to say about it as well.
WolfXCIX (talk) 22:08, 31 December 2020 (UTC)WolfXCIX
- Comment - @WolfXCIX: Thanks for taking the time to give us so much information, but none of it helps with the album's notability, and having notability is what helps people and things qualify for a Wikipedia article. The album is not notable because it had notable people on it as session players; see notability is not inherited. If Mr. Jackson and this album deserve more recognition, that is valid but Wikipedia is not a promotional service. You have gone on a fan's quest to find info on what looks to be a lost classic album by an unappreciated musician; kudos for your efforts but Wikipedia is the wrong outlet. There are lots of other websites full of collectors interested in obscure gems. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:38, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

NCRIC only provides a very weak presumption of notability for low-level international cricketers and by consensus that presumption is is unreliable, so GNG (and/or a different SNG) must be met – and this doesn't. The only sources we have are databases and routine match coverage which do not establish notability per SPORTCRIT. No value in redirecting to a tournament article. wjematherplease leave a message... 16:18, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Despite passing WP:NCRIC, the article clearly fails WP:GNG as I struggled to find any sources for this player. HawkAussie (talk) 00:25, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

The result was keep. There is consensus that this page could serve a useful purpose; refashioning it explicitly into a DAB page, and deciding on a title, can happen via talk-page discussion. Vanamonde (Talk) 06:41, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

In addition to being poorly named, it doesn't really add anything to (and is less complete than) Category:Twenty-cent coins. That's my two cents x 10. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:03, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Neutral as creator. I created this page based on the set index article 10 cents; the content of that page has since moved to the name 10 cent coin. HotdogPi 00:10, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep and move to 20 cent coin (for consistency). It's good to have a SIA for this, which is more easily found by readers than a category (I imagine). It can easily be made just as complete as the category, of course. Lennart97 (talk) 00:30, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Rename to 20 cent coin; seems like a fine set-index article where it's clear it's about specific coins rather than an arbitrary monetary value. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:49, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. Perfectly valid topic for a disambiguation page. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 03:19, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
