Fails WP:NBIO. Top 10 or 100 lists are poor evidence of notability, especially when the websites seem far from authoritative. There is also no indication that the subject's social media platform is notable in itself. SuperMarioMan (Talk) 23:33, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - The sources are not reliable and a few, such as "Mr. Reliable", appear to be sponsored or user-generated. I searched for sources and found nothing. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:53, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - Also unable to find anything that would establish notability, or evidence that the included sources have any sort of credibility. It's worth noting that this same page was speedy deleted less than 48 hours ago. —{Canucklehead} 00:05, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy delete - Fails quick Google News search, so fails WP:GNG. Appears to be a youngster trying to self-promote. On that basis, it should probably be speedied. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 00:09, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

- @ChuksJD: Hmm, you declared a conflict of interest with InstaNovella, a site purported to be created by Dandy Jackson Chukwudi, you've adopted his name, yet we are supposed to not think you're him. Got it. Here's the thing, while you've created other articles, you seem unaware about our General Notability Guideline, which says that subjects are generally considered notable if the subject has received significant (i.e. in-depth) coverage in reliable sources (major mainstream sources like newspapers and magazines) that are independent of the subject (no blogs, no interviews, no user-generated websites, etc.) You haven't demonstrated that this person (who is not you) has met this basic requirement, and pasting a link to a Google search doesn't help in any way, since all of the search results point to sites that are of no use to us: Facebook, LinkdIn, Crunchbase, blogs, etc. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:39, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Bro... That was my first article, if you check, I told Davidwr that it was a mistake. I was just new to the ‘system’ then. No one in his senses would declare that he is making an article for himself or his website knowing fully well it was against the wikipedia rules, would there? I doubt so. C'mon man! You should know better. This should be over with. If he ain't ‘notable’ YET then having a stub should be better than deleting completely. Jackson is one of the enterpreneurs who has helped in creating employment in my state! (I'm not telling you this to change your mind... You've once blocked me for doing nothing anyways) I'm telling you this so that you don't have to be so strict on me cuz I'm African or cuz we have ‘similarity in names’, I'm telling you cuz good works should be appreciated. The only primary citation was the one I got [[2]]. Every other citation was secondary. You know this... You're an admin and a human... You should know what's right by now.

- @ChuksJD: You have no connection to instanovella, but you are in a position where you can give away copyright permission for their logo [3] and have written a draft article in your sandbox [4]?
- Per WP:TOOSOON we don't create articles on people who might gain notability one day, both due to our notability guidelines and due to WP:BLP. If the subject of the article isn't covered in high quality sources it is impossible to validate the content of the article, meaning it would be impossible to figure out what information is correct and what is made up.
- The Instanovella link isn't the only one that is primary, the vangard community article was written by a user called Yellow alligator, who claims to be a blogger and gives their website as instanovella.com, so that is also primary [5]. That leaves us with 2 mentions in list websites and an unreliable review website, hardly enough coverage to write a biography!
- You're clearly enthusiastic about writing, so I'd ask that you spend a couple of hours reading the conflict of interest guidelines at WP:COI, the general notability guideline at WP:GNG, and the reliable sources guidelines at WP:RS, and bear them in mind for your future editing. 192.76.8.82 (talk) 20:19, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- @192.76.8.82: Brother/Sister... Yellow Alligator or whoever he is, I do not know him. I only used the article as a citation. The other websites I used for citations are Nigerian website. They (the websites) don't have any wikipage but they're still a source of information for most Nigerians and I think it makes it notable (isn't it? Correct me if I'm wrong please). Chukwuma Jaatochukwu Dennis is my actual name ( for those who wanna know). I am not associated with InstaNovella. I made a bio here which the image I used was deleted also. I also told them I'm the owner of the image (I try to make/get images for my articles using PixelLab if needed), but it was still deleted. Their logo is different from mine if you check very well. And making a draft is a soon? I made drafts before moving them to the mainspace, I guess I'm off from that shackle too. 𝐂𝐡𝐮𝐤𝐬𝐉𝐃 O_o ChuksJD (talk) (Contribs) 21:39, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- @ChuksJD:Look, you're not in trouble and you're not going to get banned, there's no need to panic. Everyone writes articles that get deleted, and everyone will have committed a wikipedia social faux pas at some point, even jimmy wales was caught editing his own page. Creating articles as drafts is absolutely the right thing to do, but if you're finding that a lot of them are getting deleted I would suggest that you spend a bit of time reviewing the policies I suggested above.
- To answer your question "does that website show that Chukwudi is notable" the answer is no. Have a read of the general notability guideline WP:GNG. It states that "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list."
- Significant means that the source must cover the subject in detail, e.g. a mention in a list would not be substantial, a newspaper printing a story about Chukwudi would be.
- Reliable means that the source can be relied upon to be true. A TV news report that has gone through an entire team of journalists and editors would normally be reliable, a facebook post written by a random person would not be.
- Independent means that the source should have as little connection as possible to the subject, a journalist writing an article on a company would be independent, an interview with it's founder would not be.
- Also note Sources is plural - we need more than 1 source to show notability.
- Any source must meet all three conditions to count towards showing notability. looking specifically at the website:
- It is significant, since it contains a detailed account of the Subject's life.
- It is not reliable, as it is user generated content and anyone could have written it. If his name was misspelled or a date wrong would the website owners fix it? Probably not.
- It is not independent, as it appears to have been written by the subject himself.
- I hope this helps, as I said take a bit of time to read and understand the policies here, and you'll find you have a much better time editing. 192.76.8.82 (talk) 23:32, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

- @ChuksJD, I just gave you archetype examples of tested & trusted Nigerian reliable sources but aren’t limited to the aforementioned Nigerian RS. When determining a reliable source, you should checkout if they have a reputation for fact checking, have editorial oversight, declare outrightly when an article is sponsored or written by a guest editor. If you read WP:RS, a portion there aids you in identifying reliable sources. I think for a more detailed explanation you should meticulously read that.

Rennick calls it a locale, which falls below the WP:GEOLAND threshold. Oddly enough, the GNIS link in the article is for a stream in Arkansas, but that's just as well. Topos show 2-3 houses and a couple outbuildings. Newspapers.com hits are mostly for a cemetery, and nothing providing in-depth coverage. Lone significant Google books hit is for a church. There was something here at some point in the past, but it was evidently just an informal neighborhood, not an officially recognized community. No evidence that WP:GEOLAND is met and this looks strongly like a WP:GNG failure. Hog Farm Bacon 23:25, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

Non-notable fringe viewpoint author, all the references are trivial coverage. The best "reference" I did find was one not currently cited in the article, The Barnes Review Volume 9 from 2003, but since they are described by the SPLC as "one of the most virulent anti-Semitic organizations around" and "dedicated to historical revisionism and Holocaust denial" it's probably not a reference at all.

- Delete Atlantic306 is correct that it has a review in a national paper (Times of India) but that is a rather short one and there is no sign in the sources given it really made much of an impact. This has been now created at least three times and deleted twice but at least it appears to have been released. That history and the one reliable source review given create the impression of a vanity project, not a serious independent film.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Article merely defines a local neologism with no encyclopedic content, and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. No sources at all even verify the existence of this usage of 'jam sandwich', no evidence that there are any good sources, and no evidence that the term is important or interesting in any way. No claim to significance in the article, merely the banal fact that the color on the car made someone think of jam in a sandwich. If calling the cars grey-and-reds or ketchup-on-rye had caught on, the article would have just as little insight to offer. A topic is encyclopedic if learning about it broadens or deepens your understanding of the world rather than explaining that a fireplace is called that because it's the place where fire goes.

- Keep. I think the nominator needs to look up the term "neologism" (and probably "local" as well). This term has been around for about fifty years, was once extremely well-known (certainly when I was growing up in the 1970s and 1980s everyone in the UK knew what it meant) and is in fact rarely used today as police car colour schemes have mostly changed. And why not propose Black and white (police vehicle) for deletion as well? Otherwise it rather looks as though you're singling out a particular country, since the two are very similar slang terms used in different countries and for an equally "banal" reason. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:03, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Don't be a dick, OK? Telling someone they need to go read a defintion is not civil or respectful, it's condescending. Why is your link to the "definition" a link to an encyclopedia article? A good place to find the definition of neologism would be a dictionary, which is not what Wikipedia is. The OED is kind enough to inform us that it's "A word or phrase which is new to the language; one which is newly coined." You think 50 years is not "new". Good for you. That's merely a subjective opinion. As is this "50 years" you mentioned. Source? As the policy on this question, WP:NOTNEO, mentions, "An editor's personal observations and research (e.g. finding blogs, books, and articles that use the term rather than are about the term) are insufficient to support articles on neologisms because this may require analysis and synthesis of primary source material to advance a position, which is explicitly prohibited by the original research policy."
Slang usages coined in the last 50 years include groovy and boogie. These neologisms, unlike jam sandwich, meet Wikipedia's policy on neologisms, which matters far more than what the dictionary or encyclopedia definition of a neologism is. The policy says to justify an article about a neologism, it "must cite what reliable secondary sources say about the term or concept, not just sources that use the term." It doesn't say, "if the word is 50 years old, keep the article".
I'm not going to tell you to go read Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary because that would be rude, and so I assume you have read it. I suspect you might not fully understand it. I think any of us can, oftentimes, benefit from reading such a policy a second time, myself included. --Dennis Bratland (talk)
- I apologise if you thought I was being offensive. It was not my intention (although calling someone a dick is clearly intentional!). But honestly, a "local neologism" suggests a term that has been made up in the last few years in a particular small area, not a term that entered common usage throughout a major country fifty years ago! OED: Neologism: "A word or phrase which is new to the language; one which is newly coined." Fifty years ago is not new by any definition! -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:47, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- New Zealand has been so since 1643 and yet it is still apparently "new". Don't get me started on the "New" Testament. "New" is relative. The current geological epoch is named the Holocene, meaning "entirely new"? Can we call anything entirely new after 12,000 years? And Pleistocene means "mostly new"! Scandal.
How can you be so assured that neologism is limited to a "few" years but not 50 years, when you haven't cited anything that says anything of the kind? No dictionary says that. You linked to neologism, but that says nothing about whether we're on an impatient toddler's timescale or a dog years timescale or a geologic timescale. I think of linguistic change in terms of hundreds of years: speakers of a language separated by from 1-2 centuries could understand one another easily, but increase that to 3-5 centuries and it's not so easy. Fifty years isn't that long in that time scale. Neologism does give this criterion: "has not yet been fully accepted into mainstream language." So we know jam sandwich has not fully been accepted in mainstream language because it is only applicable to a subset of Britain where these particular cars even existed. The term has no chance of becoming accepted outside that area. You can't even say the term could be common across British English-speaking countries; only one of country ever had these police cars. And on top of all that, the cars are gone from the one place where they did exist, meaning the term is, if anything, on its way out. How much more local can you get?
I'd suggest before you can expect other editors to apply a time limit of 50 years or 20 years or any number of years to the definition of a neologism, you need to propose changing WP:NOTNEO to say so. But really, in the larger context of the Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary policy, it's moot whether a word is or isn't a neologism. A neologism that appeared 3 years ago and disappeared 2 years ago could very well merit a Wikipedia article if the subject met the encyclopedic criteria that really matter: secondary sources giving us in-depth information about the word. There are words that have been in mainstream usage for untold centuries that we won't have articles about until sources have something important to say about them beyond just telling us the defintion.
And saying don't be a dick is not calling anyone a dick, any more than telling someone "don't cross the tracks" is accusing anyone of having crossed the tracks.. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:02, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. As mentioned directly above, this is an old turn of phrase which at the time was the livery of 'traffic' (highway patrol) vehicles with high performance capability, as distinct from Panda cars used in urban locales at low speeds. This latter article is poorly referenced, too, but nonetheless of encyclopaedic interest. The larger vans were often plain dark blue or black (Black Maria). Where I live, traffic wing was disbanded probably 10 or more years ago, with vehicles redeployed into ARVs and Road policing unit including Motorway patrols.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 21:18, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Add the Daily Mail article that WP will not allow as a citation, for anyone not seeing it in the article edit summary.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 22:12, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- You know the Daily Mail is unreliable, but even if it was, it doesn't support anything except that the neologism exists. We have zero sources about the term. The policy on neologisms says need secondary sources that give depth and insight, that explain something about the role of the word in society. Panda car fails WP:NOTNEO as well. It would be the function of a dictionary to catalog all these local slang terms -- and jam sandwich, black maria, and panda care are all merely local British slang. There is the much longer, but equally unencyclopedic Black and white (police vehicle), which suggests a solution where a new article title for local slang for police vehicles can all be merged, along with paddywagon and the rest. List of slang for police vehicles would fail WP:NOTNEO but it doesn't matter because it could meet the criteria at Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 22:41, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- This new source also fails to tell us anything about the term. It's merely an instance of the usage of the term. It doesn't even give us a defintion.

- Comment Retro-application of recent standards with contrived Wikilawyering is clearly against the previous consensus - people who think it's important to write it, to restore the vehicles, convey them to public displays, people who image them and upload to a third-party, people who transfer to Commons all have a common perception of what is important.
The sources - however old they are - will never withstand forensic-analysis of what they could contribute to an encyclopedia - they don't, and didn't, write with that as a criterion. I'm only here from a similar recent experience, where half a dozen drive-bys from the North American continent were determined to de facto delete a stand-alone bio of an Englishman, when I included a list of eight similar that should also be deleted or otherwise manipulated using the same rationale, for Wiki-consistency. None have been nominated, so far.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 15:12, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

- Delete. The citability in GScholar is too low even for a relatively quiet field like taxonomy: h-index of about 5, with the top cited publiication of 19. Not enough here to satisfy WP:PROF#C1. Does not help that the article's creator has an apparent WP:COI in this case as a coworker and co-author of the article's subject. Nsk92 (talk) 20:16, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I'm fairly inclusionist about authors of scientific names, because, particularly for plants where the standard abbreviation can be obscure, it's useful for readers to be able to click on the author to find out a bit more. IPNI lists only 14 names with author "Tandang", but they are in genera which attract interest, including Begonia, Nepenthes and Rafflesia. So I think it's more of a marginal case than previous posters appear to. (More problematic is the article Philippine Taxonomic Initiative, which has a similar COI issue.) Peter coxhead (talk) 16:07, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment So far, the author has included just the "bare bones," or basic facts: references, publications, and short one-line sentences. He can officially declare his COI and post on the talk page for other users to vet biographical content that could potentially be seen as promotional. But this is one of the world's very few specialists on these kinds of plant species, so I would very strongly advise against discouraging the author from contributing, per WP:EXR (expert retention). He is clearly here to help improve the project. — Sagotreespirit (talk) 16:25, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Tandang's citation scores may not be very high, but that is because papers on obscure species simply aren't cited as much. He contributed to the descriptions of quite a few species and also has a species named after him. Personally I would prefer to see more taxonomists on Wikipedia. As for the wiki syntax, it's quite messy and I've had to constantly clean up after the article creator, but that can be fixed. Neutrally written with just the basic facts and not promotional. I'd also agree with the comment above. — Sagotreespirit (talk) 16:12, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
- Taxonomy isn't as obscure a field as that; it's still a branch of biology and I'd expect to see higher citation rates than what we are seeing here (19, 13, 6, 5, 2, 1 according to GoogleScholar). That's not exactly what WP:PROF#Specific criteria notes has in for WP:PROF#C1: "The most typical way of satisfying Criterion 1 is to show that the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work – either several extremely highly cited scholarly publications or a substantial number of scholarly publications with significant citation rates." Moreover, on closer inspection, even these modest citation numbers are slightly inflated. For example, for the top cited paper, out of 19 cites, 4 are to papers by PJ Matthews, a co-author of the paper being cited, so they are not independent sources for that paper. Similarly, for the third most cited paper, out of 6 cites, 3 are to papers by R.R. Rubite and another one to a paper by K.F. Chung, both of whom are co-authors on the paper being cited, so again non-independent. Nsk92 (talk) 18:38, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

Article was deprodded. I proded it because it was one sentence long and as been said before on articles about people like ambassadors, ambassadors are not inherently notable. IMHO, if an ambassador is not inherently notable, than a choreographer is less notable. Nothing in the article, which has been slightly expanded, tells me why this person is wiki worthy. Meaning, why he is different from any of hundreds of other dancers or choreographers.

- Keep. Instinct Magazine called the subject "world renowned" and "no doubt one of the biggest choreographers of our time." Billboard covered his directorial debut. Variety stated "...Jamal Sims is one of a handful of choreographers who’ve pushed the boundaries of dance in film, TV and onstage." He appeared in Michael Jackson's Remember the Time video at 17, which Root stated was followed by choreographing 2011's Footloose, Step Up, Hannah Montana: The Movie and more. Queerty stated "Jamal Sims has a long and prestigious career as a choreographer and dancer, having choreographed for Madonna, Toni Braxton, Jennifer Lopez, *NSYNC and the Spice Girls, among many other musical acts."

- That is a prime example of a trivial mention. If the Chiacgo Tribune wrote, "I like editing Wikipedia," says Indy beetle, a short brown-haired fellow who's been editing since 2016.

- @Zxcvbnm: Like I said to power~enwiki above, her mention in the first article is not trivial, as it describes her general appearance and includes a quote by her. Also, on the topic of WP:TOOSOON, please note the subsection about Entertainers, which states the following:
...even if failing the GNG, might still be reasonably presumed as notable if having..."a large fan base or a significant "cult" following"...
. Per Ironmouse's Twitch page, she has 225K followers; and per her YouTube page, she has 145K subscribers. Those are not small numbers. Jackdude101 talk cont 13:38, 26 October 2020 (UTC)- (edit conflict) Fame is not a valid criteria for notability. It tends to be related to notability, in that someone is more likely to be notable if they are famous (which is what that quote refers to), but that alone cannot qualify someone for an article. The mention in the Wired article is the very definition of trivial. I'd expect entire articles about Ironmouse, or at least lengthy mentions, not just the fact that they were asked for a quote.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 13:43, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Zxcvbnm: it seems that WP:TOOSOON and WP:FAME contradict each other on this point, because the former states that a large fan base is enough to reasonably assume that the topic is notable, while the latter is suggesting the opposite. Which of the two guidelines is the superior one? I should also mention the second article, since no one has discussed that one, which describes Ironmouse as a leader in the increasing popularity trend of VTubers. All of these different pieces of info from this small, but, reliable, handful of sources points directly to notability. Jackdude101 talk cont 13:57, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
- From what I can tell it's very much in favor of WP:FAME. In fact the entire "reasonably assume" thing is cited rather often and taken the wrong way. Especially when it comes to Streamers and Youtubers, where fame is subjective. It's probably meant to apply more to non-Internet-famous people.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 14:01, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
- See, that's the thing...you are saying it's PROBABLY meant to apply to non-Internet-famous people. It would be different if the policy stated as such outright, but it does not, and as such is open to interpretation, and in this case, flexible. Also, the figures I stated above regarding the large number of followers she has on multiple platforms are not subjective; they are facts. Jackdude101 talk cont 14:13, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
- I agree it is flexible. However from what I've seen there is not really any room for uncertainty or flexibility, such as maybe it being a borderline case. WP:GNG is the ultimate policy that ALL articles must follow and this article fails it unequivocally. A GNews search for "Ironmouse" only comes up with the Wired article with the one sentence mention. According to GNG it has to be enough information to reasonably construct a detailed article without original research.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 15:28, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

- Update: Two more sources were added to the article today, bringing the total number of published sources mentioning Ironmouse to four. Despite the fact that these four sources only mention her, they are all reputable and different, and were published several weeks apart. Furthermore, one of the sources, which was published a few days after this discussion began, states the following:
Twitch is home to several of the most prominent English-speaking Vtubers, from the impish Ironmouse to the virtual camgirl-turned-gamer Projekt Melody.
For context, Projekt Melody, as far as I know, is the only other English-speaking VTuber with a stand-alone English Wikipedia article, which I created back in February. Describing Ironmouse as being on a similar level as Projekt Melody, whose notability on Wikipedia is firmly established, is major and I recommend that everyone participating in this discussion take note of this fact before a final decision on the Ironmouse article's fate is made.

- The sources added remain WP:TRIVIAL. It still fails the criterion of "being able to write an article on them without original research". A few sentences of vague personal info does not an article make.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 15:07, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. I cannot see any notability in this at all, ignoring sources 2 to 5 because 2 is a database, 3 is a Medium article which is a blog hosting service and thus self-published and not reliable, 4 and 5 are trivial mentions. So here is all the coverage we have here:
“Like anime, it once started as a very niche thing and has been slowly growing,” says Vtuber Iron Mouse, a pink-haired girl with devil horns who’s been streaming since 2018. “I think it will only get better and more exciting from here. The more the merrier, I say!”
- This is a quote, and with very little commetary on top, the commentary that it there is simply contextual. Dylsss(talk • contribs) 16:31, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

However, I still believe that he has made much impact by investing in Nigerian startups like Paystack that was recently acquired for more than 200million dollars, I simply don’t understand that thought process, if you know for a fact that as you have stated above that the subject of our discussion lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources that is required in WP:GNG why then would you argue in favor for a premature article? if you re-read WP:BIO or WP:GNG, you’d observe that investing in startup companies is never a criterion nor a yardstick used in determining notability of an individual. I’ve done a WP:BEFORE & a source assessment already, what else do I have to do? This is not even bother-line/bare notability this is an outright GNG fail.

- Delete Both - I agree with everyone above. Such timelines are inherently nonsensical due to the shifting definitions of "alternative rock", "hard rock", and "heavy metal", and are restricted to bands that the author is familiar with.

WP:BLP of a songwriter and record producer, not adequately referenced to reliable sources for the purposes of getting him past WP:NMUSIC. While there are a few stray hits of media coverage about him that count for something, there aren't nearly enough of those to pass WP:GNG — instead, the article is very heavily reference bombed to sources that are not valid support for notability at all, such as primary source content self-published by record labels, online lyrics or credit databases like Genius or AllMusic, sales profiles on Amazon.com and user-generated videos on YouTube or DailyMotion. As always, when establishing whether someone is notable or not, we are not looking for just any web page that technically verifies a fact — we are looking for the amount of journalistic coverage he has or hasn't received about the fact in real media. But the amount of that shown here is not sufficient, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have more of it than this.
While this isn't a deletion criterion in and of itself, it should probably also be mentioned that this page has been bouncing back and forth between draftspace and mainspace repeatedly in the past few weeks, as other editors have been in sharp disagreement about whether it meets the criteria or not.

Keep: A highly notable songwriter. The amount of songwriting work by this gentleman with artists of high calibre is mind boggling. What is the utility of our readers not knowing about this songwriter I don't know. Even after the elaborate technical explanations by colleague Bearcat. Songwriters usually don't get the media circus coverage singers or musicians do. This is very understandable. So we now use it against them and delete them out of existence? Even a basic search with our search engine, gives us tens of leads to Michael Pollack songs in various Wikipedia artist and song articles. The contributors made an overkill of references to try to keep the article. But apparently to no avail. We may lose this article. It's our loss and the profound loss of so many of our readers. werldwayd (talk) 22:39, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
- The notability test for a person, regardless of his occupation, is not the things he's done, it's the amount of reliable source media coverage he has or hasn't received for doing the things he's done. Songwriters aren't handed an automatic notability freebie just because it's possible to offer technical verification in online lyrics databases and music stores that his work exists — the notability test requires either (a) that he won significant awards for his work, and/or (b) that journalists have paid independent attention to his work in the media by writing and publishing analytical or biographical content about him and his work.
And no, people are also not exempted from that requirement just because they happen to have a "behind the scenes" job that doesn't always get as much media attention as the singers do, either: in fact, in a situation like that it's even more critical that we tie notability to the quality of the sources, because if we waived the sourcing requirement and allowed songwriters to keep articles solely on the basis of primary source verification that their songs exist, then we would have to keep an article about every single songwriter who exists at all, regardless of their notability or lack thereof. So it's the media that tells us which songwriters are notable enough for Wikipedia articles and which ones aren't, not Wikipedians' subjective personal interpretations of how "important" an unsourceable or improperly sourceable statement may sound.

KeepLos has a considerable fanbase and does have a notability among the Twitch Community, he is a notable person and should have his own Wikipedia Page.

- Keep Los is one of the biggest streamers on Twitch and HAS played with many big names, he is so entertaining and does deserve his own page, there are only a few people out there who want to mess around and make jokes, we'll come up with new citations we promise, just give us some time. Lil Tasty
- @Lil Tasty: There's no reason that can't be done in the draftspace, and I would look to sites like Fandom initially as they have practically no requirements for pages — IVORK Talk 07:34, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per previous arguments,
but a far more interesting question is why we have a nominator arguing for Keep who has made no edits outside the page?scratch that the page formatting looked weird first.

KeepLouis is a huge influencer on Twitch’s platform. Among the previously explained reasons, I would like to state that if you were apart of the Twitch community and saw Louis in public, you would recognize him. Just like how a baseball fan would recognize one of the players from their team in public. TubWalk69 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tubwalk69 (talk • contribs) 12:50, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

Ok all of you who want this article deleted are actually buzkills. How come Aaron Sherinian gets to keep his article up yet Los doesn't, blatant hypocrisy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KENGRIFFEY24FAN (talk • contribs) 16:56, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

- What does one person have to do with the other? The only connection I see is that Aaron Sherinian was nominated for deletion three years ago by someone with the username User:KENGRIFFEY24 (who I assume is the same person as User:KENGRIFFEY24FAN) and passed with a "speedy keep". Sherinian isn't a Twitch streamer or at least his article doesn't say he is one. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:39, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
- KENGRIFFEY24FAN Note the points raised on that AfD, being the head of a prominent company and also receiving notable awards. Not to mention that the article has multiple reliable sources, not just the subject's own social media and a single mention in media. Per Lee Vilenski, read WP:GNG & WP:NBIO to see the requirements that need to be met for all articles on individuals. — IVORK Talk 01:21, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

So back in November 2018, a very similar page was nominated for deletion, and was eventually deleted - see here. As far as I can tell, nothing has really changed since then. Barely any of the "original programming" is actually original programming, with nearly the whole lineup of the channel being reruns and acquired programming, something which violates WP:NOTTVGUIDE. Not to mention some of the dates are certainly inaccurate, and Cartoonito is not iconic like CBeebies and Nick Jr. are. This article could potentially be speedy deleted under G4.
If people seriously think this article should exist under some form, I suggest merging the content into the main Cartoonito page, or drafting the article to see if anybody can improve it in a way I can't think of. Foxnpichu (talk) 15:05, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

- Delete, merge or draft per nom. Although in my opinion, it should be deleted instead. As stated in the nomination, Cartoonito is nowhere as iconic as CBeebies and Nick Jr for example, and there are barely original programming. (Actually, I haven't seen any original programs there in my life, just acquired ones.) Wikipedia is not TV Guide. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 09:28, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
