Just because something is a Disney Channel Original Movie doesn't guarantee that it has gotten enough "significant independent" coverage to clear WP:GNG. I have just done some WP:BEFORE work on this, and I can't find any significant coverage (either significant reviews or production information) of this TV film. The current article is unsourced (and has been for over a decade) and violates WP:PLOTONLY. I suggest redirecting this to List of Disney Channel original films#Disney Channel Original Movies. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 23:34, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

Article about footballer who made a total of 6 appearances (only 218 minutes of play) in the Portuguese second division and 2 appearances in the Portuguese league cup. Otherwise, he has only played in semi-professional Brazilian state championships (Sergipano A1 and Carioca B). His nominal play in Portuguese league and cup matches creates a presumption of notability under WP:NFOOTBALL, however, there is a longstanding consensus that such presumption is invalid when the article comprehensively fails WP:GNG. The only online English- or Portuguese-language coverage is entirely routine (match reports, transfer/injury announcements, and database entries, e.g., [1]). There is simply no in-depth coverage available. Jogurney (talk) 21:07, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep - 8 appearances as a pro, numerous more as a semi-pro, and a very hard name to Google - whilst I fully agree with the nom that GNG trumps NFOOTBALL (and have voted 'delete' at borderline cases in the past), I don't think this is right here. It needs improving, not deleting. GiantSnowman 21:31, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
- Weak delete. Agree with nominator that the coverage in English and Portuguese media is almost entirely WP:ROUTINE, almost to an unbelievable extent. Subject played 8 times for S.C. Freamunde on the second highest tier of the Portuguese soccer leagues. 8 times is not that many, and second highest is just about OK, so I think in this case WP:NFOOTBALL was not satisfied enough to overthrow WP:GNG.

WP:GNG. Does not have significant independent coverage. I pruned out a lot of stuff and those were things in Indymedia.org and like which is red in WP:RSP. A good number of !votes in the first AfD years ago were rooted to editor conflict issues as evident from comments. I have done search, and I don't find significant independent coverage of this subject. Some coverage in radical press and some in Indymedia, which we can not use as reliable source.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Store, not a town. The state historical society calls it a "settlement"; alternate names of Chubb Store and Clubb Store are given by GNIS, 1930 topo calls it "Twelvemile Store", but FWIW, clearly marks "Chubb Store" as a separate entity. The 1980 topo shows a "Twelvemile", but the font and location suggests a reference to the township, not the "settlement". A 1912 local history calls it a "village". Approximately two houses there now. It's unclear if this was a store or a community or what, but it doesn't appear to have ever been legally recognized as a community, so it likely fails WP:GEOLAND, WP:GNG definitely is not met.

- My research did not convince me that they were the same, IIRC I think they might have both been on one of the maps I saw.

The result was no consensus owing division of a fairly small number of participants. Normally in such cases I say no prejudice towards a renomination but would ask for that to be done thoughtfully as this is a no consensus which leans keep. Barkeep49 (talk) 02:58, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Seeking consensus on a borderline WP:NCORP fail. A toughie, not just because it's hard to search without getting results for lower-case margaritas. The best sources I could find in a search were [9] (local newspaper, not really SIGCOV IMO), [10] (looks like SIGCOV, but not clearly independent—I'm rather suspicious of "business journals"), [11] (looks decent, thought not entirely sure if reliable), and [12] (not great either).

- Toughpigs, Yes, definitely helps. That's the best source so far. I think that, plus, [14] and [15] (both cited above) are enough to get me to a weak keep and stubbify (as article is entirely unsourced atm; the only source there is not about this restaurant). AleatoryPonderings (talk) 04:25, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete None of the references provide in-depth information about *the company*, that is, the franchise operation itself. Most references are in relation to a single restaurant in the franchise with, at most, a single line explaining that the restaurant is part of a franchise. This isn't good enough to establish the notability of the franchise - the topic here at at AfD. The "best source so far" above is an article discussing one restaurant opening in New Jersey and is peppered with information provided by the company itself, fails CORPDEPTH and ORGIND. Topic therefore fails NCORP/GNG as there aren't any references that establishes its notability. HighKing++ 19:28, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

- @Umakant Bhalerao: She played lead role in a movie which ran successfully for 100 days and gave another hit movie back, which have separate articles. If an event or an individual is covered well in the Media then there can be a separate article, I believe. If you still feel that it should be deleted. You're welcome to do it. Thanks. User:NinadMysuru
- Draftify- She has played the lead in two successful Kannada-language movies so deletion is a bit haphazard. One more significant acting credit and she will satisfy both WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR, after which the article can then be moved back into mainspace. Sunshine1191 (talk) 05:38, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

- Draftify. Despite some of the comments above, our rules are not entirely mechanical, and it matters whet the person did, and what the references say. It would help very much to have some reviews for her second film in addition to the publicity release that now is the only ref. to it in the article. It would also help to have some substantial criticism beyond the two utterly bland quotations given. DGG ( talk ) 04:01, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

Non notable documentary. I couldn't find anything in a WP:BEFORE search to establish notability. It was previously AfD'd several years ago in a mass inclusion of other Iranian films and was kept.

- Comment: This needs someone who can search in Persian for sourcing. On a side note, the director's article needs a lot of work and pruning. For example, there's a section on various film festivals his films have screened at, something Wikipedia typically sees as non-notable or relatively indiscriminate data as far as the site goes. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 10:22, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
- You may also want to look at the other films - there seems to be a problem with notability at first glance, as many of the sources seem to be links to various film festivals and awards at small film festivals, rather than stuff like reviews and coverage. Some film festival awards are notable, but those are extremely few and far between. I'm kind of wondering if this is a walled garden. --ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 10:31, 17 September 2020 (UTC)

The result was merge to My All. I'm persuaded by arguments that it's a re-release of My All, which makes that article a better merge/redirect target than her general discography. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 21:45, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Non-notable, non-promoted compilation release which is sourced almost purely from Discogs which is not a reliable source as it is user generated.
Per WP:GNG, a body of work should receive third party coverage from reliable sources. WP:NALBUMS states that if an article does little beyond denoting that something was released it isn't notable.

- IMO this is just a retitled release of My All on streaming services with Hero and Open Arms tacked on... I don't think it should be considered an EP either. On Spotify, the release date is 1998, meaning this isn't a new release like The Live Debut. It also has a shot from the My All remix video on the cover. Merge with My All. Heartfox (talk) 23:38, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to Mariah Carey albums discography where this is already mentioned. I do not believe there is enough substantial coverage from third-party, reliable sources to justify an independent article, but it is a viable search term. Aoba47 (talk) 19:04, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

Does not meet WP:ORGCRITE, the only provided example of independent, significant coverage currently provided is [18]; as a student publication, it would normally be considered unreliable, although given the subject matter it may be admissible here. Even if we're charitable with that source, we're short the additional sources that would add up to meeting notability guidelines. I was unable to find anything online, although my search was admittedly impeded by false positives from unrelated greek life orgs that include the letters Delta and Pi. There's been an extended discussion at the talk page, Talk:Delta Pi, where Jax MN has made an argument for notability by way of passing references and affiliations with notable organizations, but I'm not seeing enough examples of coverage to think that we're really in WP:NEXIST range. I don't have a strong opinion on deletion vs restoring the preexisting redirect; at a glance, the former redirect target, Mugsy's Girls, may not be notable. signed, Rosguill talk 21:53, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

- It is highly unusual for an article about an organization to be kept on the basis of a single source, let alone a student publication. signed, Rosguill talk 15:05, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- User:Rosguill, please clarify, do you still suspect that the organization does not exist, and has somehow been a 30-year fraud? Or is your concern that it is still not notable, with multiple chapters and hundreds of graduates referencing it on many resumes or Linked In pages? I previously suggested I could add these but it would be tedious and duplicative. There are perhaps a thousand such societies listed on Wikipedia, some active and some dormant, and genealogical researchers like me use these Wikipedia pages to confirm where relatives went to school, where to start looking at yearbooks, and the provenance of mysterious old pins we inherit. For these researchers alone, the pages are valuable. What does it hurt, keeping them? Jax MN (talk) 16:21, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- I don't think it's notable. A few chapters founded and a bunch of graduates listing it on Linkedin doesn't do anything to establish the subject's notability, what we need is significant coverage (i.e. actual analysis) in multiple, independent, reliable sources. If we don't have such coverage, it is impossible for us to write an article without engaging in original research and taking primary sources at their word. Without the presence of significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, there's no way for us as editors to know that the information presented isn't biased or missing something important. Creating articles for subjects that don't meet notability guidelines undermines Wikipedia's epistemic foundation. signed, Rosguill talk 16:43, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - doesn't meet the GNG or ORGCRITE. The only source which is somewhat significant is Ryersonian [19] which isn't all that substantial, and by itself, certainly doesn't amount to significant coverage. All other sources seem to be incidental/trival coverage. -M.Nelson (talk) 22:58, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - These sources are abysmal. Notability is demonstrated by substantial reliable sources. Tumblrs and extremely trivial passing mentions are not acceptable for this purpose. Grayfell (talk) 06:07, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- I inserted a REFIMPROVE template. Existence is proven. Notability is shown in spite of lack of standard references used by fraternities (Baird's, yearbooks, national news, or university imprimator). A clear summary of why these are missing is discussed on the Talk page. I agree that it is niche. Much of WP is. But these references aren't abysmal; a provincial incorporation filing isn't trivial, several reviews by disinterested parties provide a preponderance of evidence of Delta Pi's persistent presence; known corporate entities refer to the group as a prominent sponsor. I have no connection to the sorority: I am not Canadian, not Jewish, and not female. I don't know why this particular article, better written than many that need more references, is causing concern. Too often, Canadian fraternal societies are marginalized, as are Jewish groups that some seek to suppress. Thus I favor leaving the template for REFIMPROVE to do its work, and leaving the article in place. It seems a far better and more useful article than the redirect to a fictitious sorority that it replaced. Jax MN (talk) 16:54, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. I agree that the sourcing is terrible. When you have to 'prove' notability with footnotes like "The sorority is linked on several Canadian social media sites, such as this national list" and "Local community newspapers regularly list Delta Pi among campus organizations, like this 2015 Excalibur article" it's obvious there's nothing better available. Participating in charity events does not provide notability unless there is independent coverage of the participation for some reason, and mentions on websites aren't coverage. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 21:43, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

This article is mainly the work of two WP:SPAs, one of which has the same name as the subject. It has superficial referenciness but the sources are some combination of self-published, unreliable, directories, namechecks, or about the band (Savage Progress). That band toured as support to the Thompson Twins, but is hardly a household name. There are a couple of much people with this name, with a couple of legal types coming above the subject in the very limited number of Google hits. Another band he was in briefly, supported Big Country. I last saw them as second support to Queen. Overall, I don't see any evidence that this is an independently notable musician, and I see abundant evidence that this article is promotional. Guy (help! - typo?) 07:49, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

- Comment: at the moment, I would probably lean to redirecting to Savage Progress, who did at least have some chart success in Europe, although I wouldn't object to a deletion on the grounds of WP:XY. I know the Thompson Twins are by far the biggest band the subject was in, but his involvement in that band was brief and several years before their fame and chart success, when they had a completely different line-up and sound. And the other two bands mentioned in the article, Uropa Lula and Drumsing, both have articles written by the same SPA, and neither look notable, with zero chart success or reliable sources that actually talk about the band instead or the people they worked with.

- Keep head football coaches of college-level programs are typically kept because they generate more than enough press to cover WP:GNG. I see no reason to make an excpetion here.--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:38, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
- Paulmcdonald, Could you provide some examples of this coverage? -- RoySmith (talk) 22:28, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
- Well, there's fifteen in the article. Some of those are not third-party, but others are news sources. Here's some more: Coaching during COVID-19; Virginia Union hires Dr. Alvin Parker as new football coach; Blocked punt late in the game helps Virginia Union to comeback 16-15 victory over Winston-Salem State. You don't have to look hard.--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:46, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
- Paulmcdonald, Yes, there's 15 in the article. I looked at each one. None of them struck me as independent, reliable, secondary sources providing significant coverage. Of the three you present here, the first is an article written by the subject. The second is local coverage of the fact that he was hired. There's a bunch of those in the article now. I'd be more impressed if some newspaper outside of Virginia covered the event. And the third is a namedrop in an article about he game he coached; it's not about him, specifically. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:06, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

- Delete. Certainly does not meet WP:NFOOTBALL. Looking up "Alvin Parker coach" on the web raises several hits, but multiple are from only two websites, and many are about his admission as a coach of the Virginia University team, that is, they are largely
WP:ROUTINEroutine (i.e., not significant coverage). To meet WP:BIO, I'd want to see more coverage on his achievements as a coach, rather than mere announcements. Especially considering that he coaches a non-notable team.

The only independent coverage I could find was this single sentence from an article about arena soccer: "For players skilled enough, CASA will sanction the semi-professional Arena Premier League out of the Hershey Centre." I do think that some of this article's content (like the History section) could be moved to another article such as Mississauga MetroStars or Soccer in Canada.

Moreover, taking a look at the talk page of the article's creator, User talk:Wiki orb2, shows that this editor is an SPA with a persistent history of re-creating various versions of this article, after it had been deleted under G11 and G12. Some prior versions apparently involved copyvio of [20]. The same user talk page indicates that the user has a likely COI in relation to the subject of the article. Also, the photo of the subject currently used in the article has been uploaded by User:Wiki orb2 with the tag 'own work'. Personally, I think that an indeff WP:NOTHERE block should also be considered here since I am not seeing any evidence of constructive editing by User:Wiki orb2, only persistent promotional, COI and copyvio editing.

Delete. Long-standing issues have not been resolved and the main source cited, Guinness Records, is unreliable (WP:RS) because key information such as edition is unobtainable. This means there is a serious concern about WP:V and the list is wide open to WP:OR and WP:POV abuse. The article cannot be maintained and, in any case, the content is WP:TRIVIA. The case of Bluey (dog) should be included in the parent article so, in that respect, perhaps this could be merged with and redirected to Dog. As it stands, the article presents a real problem for reviewers at WP:RPC. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:22, 2 October 2020 (UTC) No Great Shaker (talk) 13:22, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Rationale seems to say that we should delete because the article needs cleanup. WP:AFDNOTCLEANUP. The rationale also states that the list may be open to OR and POV abuse? - not reasons to delete... Rationale also cites WP:TRIVIA and that is just an essay. No policy or guideline based reasons to delete were provided in the nomination rationale. The list passes WP:LISTN criteria - provides information to our readers. The reliable sources exist so we keep such articles WP:NEXIST Lightburst (talk) 15:12, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- The nomination doesn't say anything about cleanup. It says that the main source is unreliable which means, as I have now inserted, that the key issues are WP:V and WP:RS. How do you know reliable sources exist? I can't find them and I have searched. The Guinness site only confirms the case of Bluey, none of the others.

For example, I have every single edition of the Guinness Book of Records printed in the UK (apart from those really rare editions from the 1950s), and I suspect other Wiki editors have access to them too.

- Keep. The word is ambiguous, it's just that the other topics it can refer to have other, more common names. I've rewritten the page to make it clearer, mostly based on the OED entry (which lists four distinct meanings, only one of which is marked as rare and obsolete), and I've added a link to the French literary movement. I'm a bit unsure of the Naturopathy entry though: the OED lists one obsolete meaning (with a 19th-century example) that looks similar to this concept, but do we have anything reliable that the two words have been used interchangeably?

Notability not established and article mostly written by COI editors.
Only one of the sources is independent, and this is an interview on a local television station. The remaining sources are all affiliated with the project. (If additional sources do establish notability, the Wiki procedure for articles by Paid Editors is to go through AfC)
The major contributors are Paid Editors. Also, the first three sections on the Talk page show a misunderstanding of Wikipedia's purpose, since they intend for ETOPIA employees to use the article to publish news from the program, instead of unbiased editors seeking to create encyclopaedic content. 1292simon (talk) 08:28, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

- I attended that previous discussion and so consider it disruptive to have to go through this again.

- The nomination doesn't cite any policies; just waving at irrelevant guidelines and the crude essay WP:FART.

- WP:SENSATIONAL and WP:LASTING are "policies". So is WP:NOTNEWS cited below by another. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 20:08, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- WP:SENSATIONAL and WP:LASTING are guidelines not policies. The first says that "Tabloid or yellow journalism is usually considered a poor basis for an encyclopedia article" and the latter says that "An event that is a precedent or catalyst for something else of lasting significance is likely to be notable." The topic has long since left the newspapers and is now to be found in numerous books. These typically report that the incident has passed into the Japanese language as Busshu-suru (ブッシュする). So, these guidelines do not indicate that we should be deleting this page; quite the contrary. The appeal to them is begging the question contrary to WP:FORCEDINTERPRET.

- No, that presidency article is about 100K and currently seems to say nothing about this incident. Lots of details are bound to be crowded out of such a long article and so oddball items such as Bush legs, the Chicken Kiev speech and Decade of the Brain have to be covered separately. Per our policy, WP:NOTPAPER, we can have as many spin-offs as we want and need. Andrew🐉(talk) 15:47, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
- The presidency article is 48K and can spare to add 2K from merging this article into it. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 21:30, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
- BTW, it is not Bush legs that is notable it is either the Washington Summit (1990) or the Helsinki Summit (1990) from which it originates that is notable. The other two articles have good and viable WP:SCOPE. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 02:57, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
- It's not clear what that 48K number is. The current size of the presidency article is reported in its history as "99,847 bytes". That's way beyond the limit suggested by WP:CHOKING while WP:TOOBIG indicates that it should be split rather than expanded. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:09, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
- You do not know what WP:PAGESIZE means. Page size refers to the size of the prose which is 48K. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 12:28, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
- Ok, if we expand the readable prose from 48K then this would push that article into the category: "> 50 kB May need to be divided (likelihood goes up with size)". Bloating a big article is not sensible. It is generally best to keep our articles small and specific so that readers can easily find what they are looking for rather than having to scroll through long, rambling compendia.

- WP:SENSATIONAL and WP:LASTING are guidelines not policies. The first says that "Tabloid or yellow journalism is usually considered a poor basis for an encyclopedia article" and the latter says that "An event that is a precedent or catalyst for something else of lasting significance is likely to be notable." The topic has long since left the newspapers and is now to be found in numerous books. These typically report that the incident has passed into the Japanese language as Busshu-suru (ブッシュする). So, these guidelines do not indicate that we should be deleting this page; quite the contrary. The appeal to them is begging the question contrary to WP:FORCEDINTERPRET. Andrew🐉(talk) 09:50, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
- The nomination doesn't cite any policies; just waving at irrelevant guidelines and the crude essay WP:FART. It is certainly possible to prove that the coverage has been continuing and is not confined to tabloids; I have done so by providing a counterexample. Andrew🐉(talk) 17:34, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- FYI, I have only been around for about 3 years. I foolishly attempted to redirect the page and take it to RfD in August 2018, at which time I was told an AfD was the proper venue. Yet, I waited 2 more years after that before nominating here.

- Delete per nom, but more so for WP:SENSATIONAL and WP:BURP; I do think that it has been covered in multiple reliable sources for almost 30 years, the Meacham bio and that CNN '90s doc semi-recently.

Potentially controversial, but I think this is a WP:NEOLOGISM that fails WP:GNG. It's a term that's been applied to a few Trump administration firings, such as that of Geoffrey Berman (this was originally a redirect to that page), but I don't see sourcing from which an encyclopedic article could be created. Re-redirecting is an option, I suppose, but then we might have a WP:XY problem given the multiple contexts in which the term has been used. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 04:25, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

- Merge content to 2020 United States Postal Service crisis and then delete per Reywas92. As the editor that created the initial redirect to Berman, I think that I may have jumped the gun on creating it in the first place. While the sources at the time did refer to it as a "Friday Night massacre," it's pretty clear that there's now far too many potential targets to redirect to, and I don't think a disambiguation page would be particularly helpful. I don't see another option beyond deleting, unfortunately. OhKayeSierra (talk) 10:27, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

I prodded this with "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar." PROD was endorsed by User:Shooterwalker then removed by User:Andrew Davidson with no rationale (despite the fact that I explicitly asked for it). Andrew also removed copyediting banner (more citations needed, notability, primary sources) as "vague, stale, erroneous", hence pinging editor who added them in the past: User:ColinFine. This article is a total mess, most content is unreferenced and it is a mash of several fictional timelines (DC+Marvel+WH40k+EVE online and so on). Extreme WP:FANCRUFT. Now, to be clear, the very topic of far future in fiction is possibly notable ([22]), and I can imagine an article discussing this, but in a totally different form - nothing here is IMHO salvageable, and hence WP:TNT is another (since any proper article on this should not be a fancruft timeline listicle). Lastly, there is also a possibility of having a list of far future works, a related topic, and maybe even stand alone timelines of some famous fictional universes (like Doctor Who), but seriously, putting them all in one article is... not a good idea, for a Wikipedia article at least.

- Delete - This is just currently an arbitrary list of dates in fiction that has no defining criteria for inclusion. There are thousands upon thousands of series that take place in the future, so this is completely unmanageable. The topic likely merits discussion somewhere, but probably as part of a larger topic. Something like Apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction linked in the article would be suitable, but that particular article obviously doesn't fit the entire overarching topic. Regardless of where it should be discussed, there's currently nothing to establish actual notability for this topic, so it should only be created at such a time where someone provides proper references. TTN (talk) 03:21, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Delete- Badly sourced fancruft. As pointed out by TTN, this is unmanageable given the necessity of deciding which of the hundreds and hundreds of works of speculative fiction to include and which ones not to. If there's a topic to be written on the topic of the far future in fiction, this is not it- and leaving it as it is would only obstruct efforts to write an actual article. Also, disruptively removing legitimate maintenance tags just so you can leave a deceptive edit summary strikes me as very childish. It's a trick this disruptive editor keeps using. Reyk YO! 08:15, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Keep The nomination is erroneous from beginning to end. The topic clearly passes the general notability guideline because it is explicitly covered in encyclopedias of science fiction. The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Science Fiction and Fantasy has an article on the Far Future which naturally discusses influential works like Stapledon's Last and First Men, just as our article does. The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction naturally has a similar article on the Far Future in which it details the way that the topic has been covered in the different eras of the genre. So, the topic is notable. Our policy WP:ATD then explains that "If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page." The contrary idea of blowing things up is not policy – it is a reactionary essay in opposition to our fundamental principle of wiki editing – that "Perfection is not required ... poor articles, if they can be improved, are welcome.". As for the PROD process, note that it "must only be used if no opposition to the deletion is expected". One should always expect opposition to such poorly-conceived nominations.

- The topic is notable, but 0% of the current fancruft plot summary is usable. There is nothing to rescue, nothing to rewrite. This needs to be deleted, with no prejudice to anyone recreating this article from scratch. In fact, I may even do so myself one day. Our article does not discuss Stapledon's work, it summarizes the plot. That's not the same. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:41, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- The prod claimed that the topic was not notable but now the nominator says that it is notable. They should get their story straight before demanding that a topic is deleted without discussion.

- Delete. Almost unreferenced fancruft. If somebody has written books and theses on the subject (not on the individual works and series, but on the subject of "far future" in fiction, then we could have an article which summarised these books and theses. But this list of dates arbitrarily gleaned from an assortment of work is not encyclopaedic even if they were all sourced. --ColinFine (talk) 09:45, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. Andrew asked me to comment here. There's no question that an article on the far future in fiction could be written; Andrew cites the SFE3 article, which is a high-quality source, and the same source even discusses subgenres such as Dying Earth stories. However, I agree with those that say this article bears no resemblance to what the article should be -- some of the timelines might perhaps be sourceable, but if that information were to be shown to be notable it would belong in the articles about those invented worlds, not in an article about the theme of the far future. I am not !voting keep since I don't think anything in the article should be kept as is; it should be replaced with a sentence or two outlining the SFE3 article, for someone to expand when they have time.

- Keep notable topic - the nominator admits the subject is notable. WP:AFDNOTCLEANUP. The nomination cites two essays WP:FANCRUFT and WP:TNT as reasons to delete: yet when our guidelines WP:NEXIST and WP:N are at odds with the essays - the guidelines should win here. We also have a policy that overrides guidelines and essays. WP:ATD. So this is a keep. Lightburst (talk) 13:25, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. I've deleted the content of the article and replaced it with a couple of sourced sentences. I think this version is keepable, but if it were to be agreed that the content at the time of nomination is the right content for the article I would !vote to delete. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:01, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- FYI, my edit has been reverted by 7&6=thirteen. I don't spend a lot of time at AfD so am not expert in the nuances; but from their edit summary 7&6=thirteen was clearly surprised that I would do something like that with an AfD pending. I don't understand the point -- if Lightburst's point, above, is valid that AfD isn't cleanup and a salvageable article should be cleaned up rather than deleted, then I feel I was cleaning up in response. If such an edit is not appropriate with an AfD pending then what's the right process given that I (and others above) believe deleting the content is the right move? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:20, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

- I looked at all the sources in the article and didn't think any of them were sufficiently good quality for an article focused on the theme of the far future in fiction, though some of them were probably OK for the individual timelines, if those were to survive in other articles. And I really don't think any of the article as it stands is worth keeping; it wasn't a blind cut and replace. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:29, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - I agree completely with Mike Christie - there actually is the potential for an actual article on this subject in the form of an actual prose article, but this current list is a complete, unsalvageable mess that should not be retained in any form. The vast majority of this "information" (and I use the term very lightly) is unsourced, and the few entries that are sourced are not reliable. As retaining this content is not needed to develop an actual valid article, and there seems to be some resistance to actually allowing the needed revision to occur right now, I have to vote to delete this mess. Because again, nothing currently here should be retained, regardless of the notability or potential of the actual title of the article. Rorshacma (talk) 15:25, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per Rorshacma. This is a quintessential case of "Wikipedia is not TV Tropes". I like making lists of big year numbers as much as anybody, but I'll still admit that those lists are fancruft. The dividing line for "far future" is arbitrary, and the material gathered here under that arbitrary heading is unreliable. XOR'easter (talk) 15:37, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- I am hardly in a position to argue the notability of this article, but for the record the cutoff point is not arbitrary; it's the same cutoff point Wikipedia itself uses. Serendipodous 21:48, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- That's just an arbitrary choice with an extra step. What would be defensible would be to gather secondary and tertiary sources that discuss how the "far future" is treated in science fiction, distinct from more near futures, and report on what their standards for the "far future" are. Do they even specify a number of years, or is the concept more thematic? For example, the SFE3 article mentioned by Mike Christie doesn't use a cutoff year; instead, it sets up a contrast between
the historical future which will grow out of human action in the present day
anda world where everything has so changed as to have become virtually incomprehensible
. Imposing a quantitative cutoff when the source makes a qualitative distinction is Original Research. XOR'easter (talk) 16:08, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - Whether the topic is notable seems apart from the question. More relevant seems WP:SALAT and WP:NOT. There might be a notable topic somewhere, but there isn't one scrap of this article that should be part of an article on that notable topic. There's not on independent reliable source in the bunch, instead comprising entirely in-universe fandom/trivia. It's unclear whether a different version of this article would be notable, because it's unclear what a completely different article would look like. i.e. WP:TNT at minimum. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 18:17, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Delete this isn't a discriminate topic and unsurprisingly there are no sources that discuss this as a concept separate from science fiction as a whole. That would be a fine redirect target and there is nothing that needs a separate article. Jontesta (talk) 20:55, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - I endorsed the PROD because WP:NOT#PLOT says that articles are not just retellings of plot details, and we cover fiction in a summary style, not as a series of disparate bullet points. If you rewrote it as prose, it would still fail NOTPLOT because there is no third party coverage that adds any out-of-universe context. I do see some comments (including delete comments) that this article could be completely rewritten as something that isn't just plot and primary sources, but those articles already exist by a different name if you look at examples in outline of science fiction. If someone find any secondary sources that talk about common themes in the fictional distant future, they should be added to better articles than this. There is nothing in this article that meets Wikipedia policies and it should be deleted. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:56, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: I came across this article when trying to find information about science fiction set in particular years. Despite its incompleteness and other flaws, it was still one of the best references I could find on the subject.

Note numerous items are individually Wikipedia-notable items. It is sensible to have this as a list separated from, rather than included into a main article about the Coca-Cola company. About the German ones, the current section doesn't seem to have substantial encyclopedic text-type information (though the actual locations' coordinates plus Google satellite view or Google streetview would get you to some significant visual info).

Strong Keep I can see more than four secondary reliable sources which pass Wikipedia notability guidelines.Kojomo (talk) 08:37, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
1. If multiple reliable publications have discussed a topic, or better still debated a topic, then that improves the topic's probability of being covered in Wikipedia. First, multiple sources that have debated a subject will reliably demonstrate that the subject is worthy of notice. Second, and equally important, these reliable sources will allow editors to verify certain facts about the subject that make it significant, and write an encyclopedic article that meets our policies and guidelines.
2. Every article on Wikipedia must be based upon verifiable statements from multiple third-party reliable sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. A third-party source is one that is entirely independent of the subject being covered, e.g., a newspaper reporter covering a story that they are not involved in except in their capacity as a reporter.
This article satisfies both scenarios explained. I propose a Strong Keep AGwrites (talk) 09:47, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

I agree that there are way too many references, and they should definitely be cleaned up, but the contest is definitely notable. It's a Eurovision-counterpart, with the winner of AfriMusic even performing at the Eurovision pre-shows. AfriMusic is indeed online at the moment, as far as I know, but that doesn't make it less notable. The page is written well. It doesn't, in my opinion, seem promotional at all.

- Keep. The article has been completely overhauled and the subject has received enough significant coverage to warrant an article. There's not a lot of media fuss about data scientists, but I believe the Wired article and her interview in This is Statistics demonstrate that she meets the basic criteria of WP:BIO. She also meets WP:NACADEMIC#7 as someone who has had "a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity." As a data scientist, she has worked for Etsy, Stitch Fix, has co-authored papers with Jeff Leek, and hosts a popular podcast with Roger Peng. She has also given a number of keynote presentations at data science conferences. gobonobo + c 02:22, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. I'm sorry I missed the original deletion discussion, where I think I could have made some of the (substantial!) improvements that have been made in this version. As User:Gobonobo says, this page now meets the general definition of notability based on the significant coverage in media such as Wired and VentureBeat. Parker also meets the notability criteria for academics, based both on her highly-cited work (she is third author on both the sva R package (198 citations) and the associated paper (1638 citations), and has several first-author papers as well) and her impact outside academia. She and her podcast co-host, Roger Peng, gave the closing keynote at rstudio::conf in 2020, which they were invited to do based on the enormous impact of their podcast. Parker has given many more keynote addresses about her Opinionated Analysis Development work, including at the International Conference on Teaching Statistics, in Kyoto in 2018. I don't know that this counts toward her notability yet because it is not verified in third-party sources, but she recently left her job at StitchFix to become a data scientist on the Biden campaign (her LinkedIn and Twitter do reflect this job change).

- Keep Notability is tricky when dealing with people who don't usually get a lot of mainstream coverage, but I think her StitchFix citations hit general notability and, as AmeliaMN says above WP:NACADEMIC#7 can apply. Jessamyn (talk) 15:37, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
