Multisensory analysis

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Sourced to probably a predatory journal [the signs are there]. Even if this were notable WP:TNT would apply. Whatever is good can be merged into Sensory analysis. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:48, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Headbomb, I'm confused what you're proposing here? Deletion per lack of notability/TNT, or merging. They are two different things. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 01:12, 7 October 2020 (UTC):[reply]
Delete none of the content seems to be related to the one source. I'm not sure how it's supposed to be different from Sensory analysis, so a redirect there is fine, I guess. power~enwiki (π, ν) 03:45, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per prior two AFD discussions. Sergecross73 msg me 00:13, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete since Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate list of information. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 06:40, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Creator here. The reason this keeps happening is that every time it's deleted, the list gets re-added to the already excessively long parent article (Vulkan (API)). If this is going to stick (and I'm not necessarily opposed to that; originally I just killed the list entirely, but then moved it to a separate article for the sake of avoiding drama), then its lack of existence needs to be made prominent in the parent (with e.g. {{category see also}}). I'd be very annoyed if this were deleted, the nominator (or any of the supports) didn't bother doing that, and this cycle repeated again next year. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 08:18, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- And fwiw the very same could (and should) apply to the infinitely-growing hardware section in the same parent. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 08:32, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - IPs keep reinserting the game table shortly after the separate list gets deleted. [1] [2] I would support removing the hardware section as indiscriminate as well. If it aims to be as widespread in use as OpenGL, there's no need to document every instance of use on Wikipedia. Axem Titanium (talk) 08:39, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    - Pinging @TarkusAB:, because this exact discussion was had on the second AfD (the same user opened both previous AfDs). Users raising XfDs should be actively trying to prevent them recurring. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:44, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the ping, but I will not participate in the discussion this time around. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 12:16, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Users raising XfDs should be actively trying to prevent them recurring." Is this a thing? People are busy and have limited attention. I don't think there's a broad responsibility among XFD nominators to make sure things they suggested deletion for stay deleted. Axem Titanium (talk) 07:51, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is a responsibility among editors to improve the encyclopedia, and not to waste the time of other editors. It isn't always possible to keep track of whether or not a page has been AfDed before, but if an editor is aware that this has happened, then it is markedly more useful to the project to attempt to head off future creations than to just circle back periodically and AfD them again. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 08:21, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTCOMPULSORY TarkusAB^talk/contrib 16:20, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This likewise applies to drive-by AfDs, y'know. A stitch in time saves nine. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 21:02, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a drive by really. The project actively monitors new page creation on a weekly basis within its scope. -- ferret (talk) 21:11, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per nom. A graphics library that contends to be as widespread as OpenGL does not need every instance documented on Wikipedia. Axem Titanium (talk) 08:39, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Nothing has changed since the last AfDs. If the issue is IPs repeatedly adding info to the main API page, that can be solved through RPP. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ^talk 13:36, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- RPP is for petty vandalism, not for cases where article splits are watched by people with their trigger-fingers on Twinkle but no desire to actually fix the underlying issue. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 21:54, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - Its also for preventing disruptive editing. For preventing things like editing against consensus, or violating NOT. Judging by the response here, I’m guessing any admin at WP:VG would gladly help you with this if you need it. Sergecross73 msg me 17:49, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    - I've been an admin myself for longer than you've been, but I'm very keen to hear how a semi-related wikiproject would prevent two (2) edits in two (2) years without the extreme overreaction of semiprotection better than one (1) note in the article body. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 21:05, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete For the same reasons as Lord SJones23 listed.Blue Pumpkin Pie ^Chat ^Contribs 17:20, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete but consider that the non-game lists may have valid inclusion within the Vulkan article itself, particularly the game engines, so there's some possible merge (but very selective merge). --Masem (t) 19:13, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as before, without restoring the list/table to the article. There's a lot in this AFD grumbling about the fact that various editors simply haven't been aware the issue manifested in a different manner. Ok, fine. I'll personally watchlist Vulkin (API). But nothing was stopping anyone from removing the table from the article on "This was deleted on INDISCRIMINATE grounds at AFD" rather than splitting it out either. -- ferret (talk) 21:11, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep All of the other teams in the Mens AND womans divisons 1 and 2 have pages. This one does need to be improved but not deleted. Idan (talk) 11:34, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Perhaps the articles for the teams, at least those in division 2, should also be deleted. They all seem to be not notable. --Bduke (talk) 11:46, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It is a club in Division 2 of the Mens in the Essendon and Districts Football League. In a new housing development estate, this club has been operating for seven years. It needs some time. If you delete this, are you going to delete all the other clubs in this Division 2 of this football league? Which club will you also delete? Huh? Which club from Burnside Heights, Coburg Districts, Hadfield, Jacana, Keilor Park, Moonee Valley, Northern Saints, Oak Park? Get real. Give them some time. -- Whiteguru (talk) 11:04, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Template:EDFL under Division 2. Geschichte (talk) 20:12, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the other teams are flagged for needing references and those that are not should be. I am happy to give time for editors who know about football to improve all of these articles, but if they are not improved, all of them should then be deleted. --Bduke (talk) 00:58, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It really surprises me that some editors want to remove pages just to free up memory space. Purrum (talk) 11:38, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody is saying that. The question we have to address is "Is this article notable" using the Wikipedia definition of notable. --Bduke (talk) 21:48, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody is saying that but its the point of the exercise, yes its a young club in an developing suburb and it may take a few years before a child goes through the ranks to play for a AFL club. It may take a few years before the club becomes successful and get promoted. And then the page will have to be recreated again for the fourth time.Purrum (talk) 01:22, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - ultimately, if there is no potential for this article to pass WP:GNG, it should be deleted. The existence of articles for other clubs in the same league is not a valid reason for keeping this article. Spiderone 18:26, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:NACTOR, too soon Spiderone 07:14, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Don't Delete - She is the lead actress in the film Edaina Jaragocchu so of course she doesn't fail WP: NACTOR and she has also more than 420K followers on Instagram. She is a professional actress and she should have an WP: Article Call Me Anshu 12:15, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

One role does not mean an automatic pass for NACTOR; in fact, it clearly states "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." which is clearly not the case for this person. 420k followers is quite a lot on Instagram but there's no notability policy based on Insta followers Spiderone 14:54, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete one role is never enough to create notability. If she has more roles in the future we can recreate the article when there is actual coverage and roles to justify it, they do not exist at present.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:03, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Don't Delete She is the lead actress in a notable movie. She also has enough media coverages. She deserves this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2402:8100:24D8:D824:7E70:C5C2:DE74:26C4 (talk) 21:51, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The rationale for don't delete above is the same as this one. Are you a sockpuppet? You only have 2 edits.TamilMirchi (talk) 17:19, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is clearly a case of TOSOON. As she lacks multiple in-depth reliable sources about her. Also, it's pretty likely one or both of the keep votes are sockpuppets. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:59, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The body of this article appears to have been poorly translated from the corresponding section of fr:Christian Gion, the French Wikipedia's article about this film director. And even in its original language, that section is tagged by the French Wikipedia with a message that says, "Cette section n’est pas rédigée dans un style encyclopédique" ("This section is not written in an encyclopedic style"). So if this article is to be kept, it could definitely use a rewrite. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 22:29, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep I have tried to fix the issue with the non-encyclopedic tone. Though struggled to get some good references about him. Only found some passing mention in this polanski petition. --☆★Mamushir (✉✉) 20:14, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why does this keep getting relisted? Is it because of the one weak keep where the user admits they can't find sources?—S Marshall T/C 12:54, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Because nobody has offered substantial analysis as to why they are or aren't notable. The comments are 1) about translation 2) about non-encyclopedic tone and 3) a delete !vote saying that if IMDB is the only source that it should be deleted. Likely nobody else has !voted because they find it unlikely that a director who seems to have directed several notable films is blatantly non-notable, and the number of editors who are qualified to search in french and determine the notability of a director from the 1970s is likely small. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 01:16, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why does my nomination statement not amount to a substantial analysis?

Any editor is qualified to search in French; it's hardly an obscure language, the search procedure is simple and a high degree of fluency is hardly required to read the showbiz sources that would cover a film director.—S Marshall T/C 08:31, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hyperpop

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:GNG. I went through every citation in an earlier revision and found that, other than the obvious WP:V, WP:WEASEL and WP:TONE issues, most of the claims failed verification. Very few sources even mention a genre called "hyperpop", and those that did were student newspapers. This left few usable sources. I am not sure of the reliability of Ringtone Mag. ili (talk) 10:33, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to "Bubblegum bass" or "PC Music (genre)" or something similar. It's been covered as a genre, but "hyperpop" is a neologism invented for a Spotify playlist a year ago. Mcrsftdog (talk) 14:12, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Bubblegum bass" seems to have the same notability issues. ili (talk) 10:30, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Move with infobox to a new section under PC Music since most of the "hyperpop" pioneers are under the label. HeyitsBen ^talk 11:42, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Move to PC Music since there is somewhat of a difference between hyperpop and PC Music. Artists like Osquinn explained that A.G. Cook did not invent hyperpop and hyperpop was made by diverse artists since late 2019. Hyperpop (talk) 20:34, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Only, Missouri

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I'm still getting the hang of sorting out non-notable place stubs, but I don't think this was a "populated place" like GNIS claims. Google Maps shows absolutely nothing here, as does the 1934 topo. While a WP:SPS website claims there was a post office here from 1907-1919, a more reliable source states that the post office was only there 1915-1918. GNIS agrees with the post office and the 1915-1918 dates. 1982 topo also shows nothing. GNIS claims to source it from a 1969 topo of Springfield, Missouri. I can find no existance of a 1969 Springfield topo, but I found a 1959 Springfield topo that does include it. That map is, however, a scale of a large area, so it doesn't mark individual buildings. With clear evidence that this was just a short-lived low-level post office, and with the small area topos not even including it, I'm seeing no way this passes WP:GEOLAND.

- It was never a settlement. Not even the local topographic maps include it. It was an isolated post office that existed for three or four years before it was replaced by rural free delivery.

Keep The community existed and is important for the local history of the area. And, in response to the previous comment "probably serving a rural population": exactly in an era when local "rural" folks needed a nearby place to get their mail and supplies. Some folks seem rather ignorant of historical realities. Vsmith (talk) 13:53, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The historical reality is that 4th class post offices were put in all kinds of places, and moved around pretty frequently, and renamed often. They do not imply a settlement other than at the trivial level that someone had to be postmaster. Mangoe (talk) 19:10, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

hmm "..moved around pretty frequently": seems that would need a reference, unless you simply mean "moved from one building in a small community to a different building in the community" - which would be meaningless (or irrelevant) here. Vsmith (talk) 00:00, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You can see for yourself in the data: the lifespans of a lot of these post offices was measured in a few years, and when moved, the new location might be miles away. Your comment about moving from one building to another in the community presupposes a community in the first place, so how do you know? Mangoe (talk) 14:09, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

However the notability of the subject is justified from various things such as multiple awards and invention of Covid 19 testing tool kit. There are various independent significant references from reliable resources but i provide a few of them: This, This, This, this, this, this. this, and this

Hi DMySon, what is required are references that meet the criteria for establishing notability and we are very strict on which types of references suffice. You've posted 8 references. I'll provide you with an analysis so that you can understand better why these references fail our criteria. There are two things to bear in mind. The first is that a reference must provide detailed information on the company (as per WP:CORPDEPTH) and the second is there must be "Independent Content" so that any detailed information must be attributable to a source unconnected with the company (as per WP:ORGIND).

This from the Economic Times is a mere mention in passing with a quote from the CEO. It does not contain any detailed information (fails WP:CORPDEPTH) and has no "Independent Content" (fails WP:ORGIND).
This "solution brief" from Intel is not "Independent Content". It was written by the company (the same CEO as above but who is now an Intel employee since they joined forces with Intel), therefore fails WP:ORGIND.
This from the Deccan Herald is based on a company announcement. This is obviously not "Independent Content" since much of the exact same text and quotations are used in multiple other articles dated at much the same time such as Express Computer, India Med Today, Times of India and lots more. Fails WP:ORGIND.
This from Hundustan Times, this from the World HRD Congress website and this from Economic Times is a mere mention in a list. It has no information on the company. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH.
This from the CIO section of the Economic Times discusses the company receiving the Graham Bell Award for Innovation in Cloud Technology for one of their products. It has no attributed journalist. This from the bellaward website displays photos from the night. I note that the Economic Times article is the same as this reference from Business World which uses the same photo and the same quotes and a lot of the same text. This shows that the references are not unique and therefore are based on information either provided by the Bell Award organization or provided by the company themselves, therefore fails WP:ORGIND. There is also no in-depth information on the company, fails WP:CORPDEPTH.

The awards themselves are not notable, many companies win awards such as these each year in lots of different countries and awards like these do not count towards notability. You state that these reference are "Independent" "Significant" references from "Reliable" resources. You must understand that the content of the references must meet the criteria. Most are not "Independent" at all as they rely on information provided by the company in their announcements and PR and that information is then regurgitated as an article - that is not "Independent Content" as per WP:ORGIND.

Delete With 30 references in the article you'd expect there'd be at least one that meets the criteria for establishing notability. Unfortunately, not. We have PR references based on company announcements such as a famous actress opening a regional office, or articles based on company announcements such as an AI tool that examines XRays for a coronavirus infection, or announcements that they received a patent or teamed up with another partner. Then we have the usual churnalism articles based on interviews with the founder/CEO where he talks about various topics such as his "den" or reducing stress or the "vision" of the company. We have mentions-in-passing and inclusion in various vendor lists. Finally there are some references to some awards, none of which are notable or significant enough to establish notability.

Delete - The previous commenter is playing loose with the guidelines. This article is dependent on several sources that are not reliable because they are reprints of press releases or basic gig announcements. There are some reliable sources cited but the coverage of Mr. Cross within is not significant because he is only mentioned in passing in articles that are about other people or events, or in the case of AllMusic and a few others, he has a basic list entry but no details. He has gotten some reviews in local publications, but I can find nothing else beyond the typical promotional and streaming sites. He may be good at what he does but he simply does not have enough reliable and significant coverage to qualify for notability in Wikipedia. ––DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:42, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Edit - Please elaborate on which sources in this article you consider "reliable" and "not reliable." The top cited sources in this page includes an interview with a long-running folk podcast, a feature in an established weekly newspaper, and an interview in a prominent daily newspaper (all written by journalists). None of these references are "reprints of press releases" and to make such a statement is reckless without proof. The sources you're referring as "basic gig announcements" are actually show previews written by journalists, a common piece of press received by any legitimate touring artist. All other sources are commonly used and official music industry sources. User:NEMusic (talk) 16:35, 11 September 2020 (EST)

Hi @NEMusic: I'll go through the references one-by-one today and examine them. scope_creep^Talk 09:29, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Looking at each reference in turn.

An interview. This is a dependent source. What is needed is independent, in-depth secondary sources that are reliable. Essentially, people talking to people who doesn't know the subject.
An announcement. Non-RS. This is not reliable source. Announcements cant be used to establish notability, per WP:NOT.
A shop. Non-RS.
Very short paragraph. Probably a "passing mention"
Track listing. Cant be used to establish notability
A "passing mention"
Video sample. Cant be used to establish notability
A "passing mention
Music chart listing. Cant be used to establish notability

So you have the first nine references. You have one small paragraph which is insufficient to establish notability. scope_creep^Talk 10:37, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Since I was the initially challenged party above, thanks to Scope Creep for analysing the sources before I got to it. Allow me to add that "reliable" and "significant" are not vague matters of opinion, but instead are sharply-defined terms in Wikipedia's notability guidelines. See WP:RS, WP:SIGCOV, WP:IS, and various other policies that are blue-linked to those. ––DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:53, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@NEMusic: Most people have some information on the internet somewhere, so doing a simple Google Search isn't good enough. It is quality of the information. I has to be significant, independent, reliable and in-depth. It must include certain facts that will proves one of the clauses in WP:MUSICBIO.

Keep the rationale for deletion was insufficient and there was no meaningful discussion or investigation of the merits. The core rationale is that the judge's office did not confer automatic notability, however none of the necessary steps were taken to investigate whether evidence existed of actual notability -- the referenced WP:USCJN guidance states that holding such office (state appeals court) is strong evidence of notability, and guidance for article deletion states, "The fact that you haven't heard of something, or don't personally consider it worthy, are not criteria for deletion. You must look for, and demonstrate that you couldn't find, any independent sources of sufficient depth." Additionally, there have been six other AfDs with near identical rationale that have been resolved recently in favor of Keep or No consensus. I will gladly further develop this article to demonstrate notability, as any judge who sits on this court has likely been significantly notable within state jurisprudence, media, and politics. --Asdasdasdff (talk) 16:34, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That said, I did take a basic look, but couldn't really find anything. One listicle that gives it a single sentence, and a brief financial statement from '76 don't really cut it. Even the barest-of-bones list of rides is unsourced, which I'd expect to be straightforward for a notable amusement park. Then again, there may very well be more out there, but difficult to find due to the age and lack of English sources. So I'd be willing to revisit this if anyone is able to turn up more, but as is, this can't really be kept. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 12:51, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree with User:Deacon Vorbis about our being forced to delete something out of dissatisfaction with the current article or its explicit sourcing. To close an AFD with Keep or Speedy Keep, it absolutely suffices to establish that sources do exist, or really very probably will exist and would be found by someone going to the local library or performing literature search in appropriate sources in their language. If you don't like the current state of an article, post about that at its Talk page and/or tag the article for more sources or whatever. Note that no sources at all are required, for articles to be created in Wikipedia, in fact, and there are literally hundreds of thousands of topics which have been created that way and developed more later. --Doncram (talk) 22:34, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or ~~Merge with San Patricio Plaza~~ Merge to list of attractions in Puerto Rico new article - udpated my vote Remember PR is a very small island and Felicilandia was Puerto Rico's Walt Disney World. Anyway, Felicilandia is in mayor PR and other newspapers Primera Hora 2 times, Miami News 1 time, NY Times 1 time, El Nuevo Dia 1 time and probably more, it's just that no internet back then. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 13:44, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Another way to put it is that PR is a _huge_ island (about 3,500 sq mi in area, in fact the 3rd largest island in the U.S. (behind big island of Hawaii and Kodiak Island), and has population 3,193,694 est. per Wikipedia). I am pretty sure that there have been lots of Puerto Ricans who never came north to its capital, say, some of whom might have made the pilgrimage to this amusement park, though. And this was PR's main amusement park for some period (if that is what The Eloquent Peasant is asserting). It is located in Guaynabo, a Puerto Rican municipality which is located adjacent to the capital and biggest city, San Juan, so serving a large population. I !voted Keep below. --Doncram (talk) 22:49, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. Thank you. For 20 years, it was the amusement park of the island that people visited with their children and families. Guaynabo is a big city, you can say it's almost like a suburb of the capital, San Juan, which is right next to it. People from the mountain areas visiting the amusement park must have felt pretty happy then! The only other rides they had were the temporary ones that were set up for a few days for the patron saint festivals, but the smaller festival rides never included a montaña rusa and don't ask me why they call the roller coaster a Russian mountain! Thanks for your vote (of confidence). I think the article should stay. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 22:55, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Deacon Vorbis: On this source, there is an explanation and image. So, this is the story: In 2014, the San Patricio Mall where Felicilandia was wanted to have an exhibit and timeline of the history of the location (including when Felicilandia was there). However, the problem was there was no documented history, as stated on this page "First challenge, they had not properly documented their history. Although there were various photos, none were of the quality needed to be used. We digitalized the materials they had in order to create a visual library to work with. Second challenge, the history of the mall only existed verbally." So the photographer went about using the images she could find to put together an exhibit, she interviewed people who had worked at Felicilandia and patrons. On the bottom image of this source, it says "What do you remember most about San Patricio mall?" ¿Qué es lo que más recuerdas de San Patricio?" and Felicilandia is one of the choices and displayed as one of the things to remember about this mall and location. So yes, maybe it's not much, but documentation may be hard to come by in English resources and on internet since newspapers having the information are not easily availble because they are from long ago (before internet). But this exhibit is from 2014 and aims to document the history of Feliciliandia along with San Patricio Mall in Guaynabo. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 15:01, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Pretty much any amusement park, especially if it has a rollercoaster (don't know if this one did), is basically notable for coverage in Wikipedia, because there will exist news and other coverage about it. See essay wp:ITSAPUBLICATTRACTION (truly an excellent essay if I do say so myself!). Sounds like there is enough documentation for this to have a separate article, rather than being covered as an item in a list-article, and no list-article to serve as a merger target has been suggested. And assertion of importance for this one that "it was PR's Walt Disney World" by User:The Eloquent Peasant who I recognize from elsewhere as being knowledgeable about PR also carries weight for me. --Doncram (talk) 22:25, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Uh, citing an essay that you wrote yourself and not disclosing that is pretty scummy. You've given no substantive reason to keep other than "it's an amusement park so it's probably notable". Notable means that there's enough in-depth coverage in reliable sources to write an article about it. If the sources aren't there, then we can't write an article. When the notability of the topic of an article with no sources is challenged, AfD is what happens. Platitudes are no substitute for sources. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 23:08, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Umm, no, you da scummy one, for lowering the quality of discussion here. I pretty much think that authorship of an essay is not important but have encountered editors trying to say "gotcha" about that in AFDs, so I make a point to disclose it. Too bad you can't understand the disclosure "truly excellent if I do say so myself". Perhaps English may not be your first language or you have other problems I don't know about, in which case i would retract my return of personal insult back in your direction. But otherwise the above is jerkish behavior IMO. --Doncram (talk) 23:30, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. Sure it would be good if the article had photos, and I don't immediately find any available at Commons. Searching for "Felicilandia photos" brings me to this photo of a roller coaster apparently at Felicilandia, and other photos. There always exists huge coverage about roller coasters, from my experience. --Doncram (talk) 22:54, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Amusement park fails guidelines established by WP:NBUILD (Buildings, including private residences and commercial developments, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability). No such sources support the notability of this park. KidAd talk 00:03, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. When the article was nominated for deletion (21 Sept 2020, 08:33AM) it had 2 references. Today, almost 3 days latyer (24 Sept 2020, 00:55AM) it has 7 - a 350% increase. However, I am not seeing that any of its current 7 references are about the subject of the article itself:

Talks about 10 sites (4 of them amusement/safari parks) that no longer exist in PR; the article dedicates 2 statements to Felicilandia, about the same it dedicates to the 3 other amusements/safari parks it mentions.
An article about a park in Florida called Seminoland Park, not about Felicilandia.
A bankruptcy notice. This is standard legal procedure, not an article about Felicilandia as an amusement park or about the Felicilandia business itself, just mandatory legal bankruptcy protocol.
This article is talking about stores built partly on a lot behind Felicilandia, not about Felicilandia itself. However, imo, it should get some credit because it uses Felicilandia as a landmark, thus making it obvious that at least some readers were familiar with where Felicilandia once stood.
A personal reflection by the author about safety in amusement parks in PR. The article mentions Felicilandia once, but only in passing.

References 6 and 7 - (Both are cites to the same reference.) An article about "Mofongolandia", not about Felicilandia.

BTW, the article, as it stands at the time of this writing (24 Sept 2020, 00:55AM) lists 6 rides that were present at Felicilandia, but gives no cite for that fact; I presumme the WP editor who contributed that info had personal (-uhum-) experience regarding the rides at Felicilandia.

BTW, BTW, a personal observation: In reference to cite #1 (https://www.primerahora.com/noticias/puerto-rico/notas/10-lugares-que-ya-no-existen-en-puerto-rico/), I had heard about Plaza Acuática, Monoloro, and Safari Park before, but this is the first I heard of Felicilandia.

Personally, I would had preferred if the article had at least 3 references that discussing/reviewing Felicilandia, and nothing else.

Keep for now - I have a very hard time imagining that an amusement park that was around for 2 decades would not have substantial coverage in local Puerto Rican media. Unfortunately, it seems that very few Puerto Rican newspapers and magazines have digitized archives online. Let's give this article another years or two and see if folks can dig up more sources.

Redirect to San Patricio Plaza - Some of the Keep !votes are fairly unconvincing, and despite its long life, it does not have much relevant coverage. Regarding the "we might find sources in the next year" argument, if we just redirect the article, we can just revert the redirect if we find the sources.

Comment I copied the text from Felicilandia to San Patricio Plaza and it may need to be trimmed down a bit. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 13:58, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I disagree that "redirect to San Patricio Plaza" is appropriate. I appreciate that User:The Eloquent Peasant added material to San Patricio Plaza article which would in effect be implementing a "merge to San Patricio Plaza" decision (and merge is different than redirect), and that they were trying to make that work. But San Patricio Plaza is a 3-story mall, not a successor amusement park for which a merger would have worked better. In the mall article, the inclusion of all of the material about Felicilandia is too much (and The Eloquent Peasant's comment/tone seems to agree with that), and it would be natural for all or almost all of that to be deleted by normal editing processes.

The current article is fine as a short article in Wikipedia, waiting for more development and especially photos, on a type of thing that is always significant (combo about amusement park and its roller coaster). There simply will exist troves of photos and materials which have not emerged yet, but do always exist for this kind of thing. "Keep" is right decision, but if some are so bent on eliminating articles in Wikipedia, then it should be merged to a list-article about amusement parks in Puerto Rico or in a larger area, not shoehorned into an article about a mall (completely unrelated except for location). "Merge" decision to such a list-article would be okay as a decision, and the list-article does not need to exist yet, the merger decision can leave requirement that such a list-article be created. Or someone could create it now. Note there does exist List of defunct amusement parks in the United States which currently lacks any coverage of Puerto Rico, but i think that one list-article about current and former/defunct amusement parks and roller coasters in Puerto Rico would be an appropriate scope. Note by the way that Puerto Rico simply does not fit into structure of Category:Amusement parks in the United States by state as PR is not a state. Take care of all of PR by one comprehensive list-article. I no longer recall where I saw it, but I understand from some source reviewed by me during this AFD that there have been a number of amusement parks in PR, like with five to ten being list-item-notable. The way forward is to build, not to to delete/eliminate part of the building. I prefer 1) "Keep" or 2) merge to PR list which must be created. --Doncram (talk) 20:16, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I trimmed out some of the Felicilandia from the San Patricia article because it was too much in there. @Doncram: Would it make sense to just add it to the List of closed rides and attractions even that list seems to mostly be of the 'big' name parks, or create like you said, make a List of former parks and attractions of Puerto Rico - I have a picture of another attraction called Noah's Ark, a zoo that used to exist, in Quebradillas,^[1] near the Arecibo Observatory. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 22:45, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, The Eloquent Peasant. I personally think a broad list of attractions in Puerto Rico, allowing for current attractions and past attractions, would be good/better than covering just the closed ones and creating no place for any current or future attractions. (Or would you mean to create 2 list-articles, but if there are not too many of each type why not merge them? I am used to lists of historic buildings and other types of things including both surviving/current ones and also demolished/former ones.) Divide into 2 big sections if you want, but leave a split to the future if ever necessary. I think the general topic "attractions in PR" or "amusement parks in PR" is a natural one, where readers would appreciate seeing the historical sequence of all of the major ones in PR which have existed since Europeans arrived. It would be interesting and worth mentioning if the first attraction created after 1493 might be known, perhaps some business or government or office or plantation opening a collection of curiosities or whatever. User:Mercy11 above, characterizing a recent version of this article, mentions "Talks about 10 sites (4 of them amusement/safari parks) that no longer exist in PR; the article dedicates 2 statements to Felicilandia, about the same it dedicates to the 3 other amusements/safari parks it mentions." So maybe there are 4 amusement parks alone and perhaps 6 other attractions that seem worth covering as list items, to start with, or 11 if Noah's Ark is not already included in the 10. This list would be a good thing, allowing for growth of coverage about the items, heading off creation of separate articles about them which would likely be PRODed or AFDd for not immediately having sufficient coverage for a standalone article.

That List of closed rides and attractions is indeed a different kind of thing, although its title would seem broad enough. So actually it should probably be renamed (perhaps a wp:RM process could be opened there?) or set up with an introduction to better describe it, but it is about historic rides etc. within a select few truly major parks like Disney World. It clearly does not include or want to include closed small amusement parks around the world; if Felicilandia were added to it I would personally agree with an editor there deleting the addition. --Doncram (talk) 03:10, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OKay. I think merging it to a List of attractions in Puerto Rico is good and the article could be developed and include (as you say) prior and current ... I'll add it to the PR template for wanted articles. I received an email back from the Library of Puerto Rico telling me there isn't a book on Felicilandia and she shared with me some links (most to what we already have) and one to a FB, and one to a blog, which we can't use for sources. Still here, I'll share one so you all can see the historic Felicilandia in pics, and pic # 2 is the Russian Mountain (literal translation for Montaña Rusa = rollercoaster). Except on the comments to picture #2, a post says that the pic #2 doesn't look like it's at Feliciliandia... looks like another place in Puerto Rico.--The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 03:15, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is very iffy under criteria 1 of WP:MUSIC, some claimed association with other notable musicians which if proven MIGHT meet criteria 6 (fame by association).

Delete - The previous redirect should have been in the other direction, because his musical works have been released under his stage name, Klassik Frescobar, and that is the search term for media coverage. Creating near-duplicate articles for both his stage name and birth name was possibly a beginner's mistake. In any case, as Klassik Frescobar his music is present in the typical streaming and self-promotional sites, and a few reprinted press releases about new songs, but he has received no significant and reliable coverage. ☆ DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) ☆ 20:54, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep each battle listed has underlying pages, though cleanup is required of the results columns to incorporate results from underlying infoboxes and replace the current POV/puffery. Mztourist (talk) 03:23, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Actually many of the wars link to pages that do not seem to mention such a war. The first entry (for example) is a war that lasted from 680-792 but Byzantine–Bulgarian wars lists no such war, it has A war in 681 and another "Eight years later". The third entry lists a war as going on from 809-822, but this appears to refer to Siege of Serdica (809) which was not a war, it was one battle and too place in 809, there is no reference to this being part of a wider 13 year war.

Delete Manzoro was part of a previous blanket AfD which had a procedural keep. Having a separate AfD for Manzoro is fine with me. In the previous blanket AfD, I proposed weak delete, I'm changing to delete. Here is what I wrote in the blanket AfD: "... per WP:STATION. I'm not able to find a Post Office at Manzoro. For example, 1906 railroad reference has Manzoro in italics, indicating that there was no Post Office at that time. So, I don't think that Manzoro is a "Populated legally recognized place." Pontificalibus' citations and others indicate that Manzoro was a loading point for the mines, but I'm not sure if this is notable enough. If the mines or mining district are notable, then they should have their own pages." Cxbrx (talk) 17:22, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Searching in newspapers.com finds first mention in 1897 BEFORE the siding was built. A 1/4 mile spur was built then from the RR in Manzoro to serve the milling operation of a mine a bit further away. The name was already in use. It may have been a ranch or something, but I don't see any evidence it was a "populated place". MB 04:57, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Neither notability nor populated place for the locale is established. Examined USGS historic topographic maps back to 1922. In the Wilcox 1922 1:125,000 quadrango, Manzoro is shown, but only as a single structure by railroad tracks. Early Cochise 1:62,500 quadrangles show Manzoro, BM 4439, lacking any structures. Later Chochise 1:24,000 lack any reference to Manzoro and show only one possible structure. Likely as discussed above, it is ony an insignificant, defunct railroad siding.

The result was redirect to Among Us. This is officially the worst AFD discussion I have closed in years. There are some participants here who should hang their head in shame. And no, I'm not naming because if you lack self-awareness to know who you are yourself you won't get it anyway. What I get from this discussion apart from a headache is that company notability is not inherited from a product and that the detailed analysis of the sourcing is that there isn't enough about the company that isn't really about the game. I also discarded some late keep votes that failed to add any value as they clearly derived from a "rescue listing" and, if you are going to ask ARS to weigh in when they are well known for taking an inclusionist stance, the arguments they advance really need to be credible source review rather than just stated opinion.

Perhaps you could reevaluate your position, in light of the significant research and expansion that I did to the article page after perusing hundreds of articles about the subject matter. Thank you very much for your time and your feedback, it's most appreciated. Right cite (talk) 16:59, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My position already states that a redirect should be created on top of the deleted article (which is what I always request to avoid IP spammers reinstating AfD-redirected articles). As for the current state of the article, I feel like a large could be chopped off as it is relevant to only Among Us or their other games (such as being inspired by Nuclear Throne). What is there can be comfortably merged into the Among Us article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IceWelder (talk • contribs)

Keep, Not only is Among Us notable, Innersloth is also a conglomerate, a collaboration with PuffballsUnited, one of the most prolific Newgrounds developers in the late aughts, early 2010s. The Henry Stickmin Collection, which does not currently have a page for not meeting Notability standards, is still in Drafts, awaiting publication, and deleting Innersloth's article is a premature burial of this indie studio which so far has developed two important video games. Make no mistake, just because an article does not meet strict notability standards, ergo, not reported on by secondary sources, that does not mean that the subject of the article is not important. The Henry Stickmin games, as well as Among Us are proof enough that this article should remain. Currently, it is a stub article, which needs to change, but that should be fixed by adding MORE information, not by deleting the article altogether.

- Subjective importance does not merit an article on Wikipedia, notability does. WP:ITSIMPORTANT is a common fallacy. Of the mentioned games, one was deleted, the other already has an article. WP:NOTINHERITED is similarly a common fallacy. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 16:01, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The notability of the games InnerSloth makes is not directly correlated to the notability of InnerSloth. Additionally, Dig2China would probably be considered less notable than InnerSloth, and most certainly has virtually nothing to do about the topic of deleting this article.

Delete. The article lacks sources to indicate notability. Chrisnait (talk | contribs) 17:17, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Right cite (talk) 01:40, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Not really. If you search InnerSloth on Google and go to "News", you find many articles about Among Us and many of them talk about InnerSloth. These are good secondary sources (for main sources see Draft:Innersloth). Indeed, we dont have many sources and references for the article, but the company is getting more and more success, which could attract more notability in the near future. Why delete this page, then after a month just remake it again because only then more sources start to appear? Waste of time, I think.

I suggest that, if we can, to just remove InnerSloth from the article space and reput it in a draft format (I don't know if it's possible, because I am a begginer at Wikipedia). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Billy Beagle (talk • contribs) 17:30, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Before getting into AfD's, it would be best to familiarize yourself with Wikipedia:Notability. The notability of article topics aren't determined by an arbitrary sense of notability. There are requirements, and if even one requirement is not met, the topic will probably be considered unnotable. The most relevant part that InnerSloth does not meet is WP:GNG, particularly that of which there is no independent, in-depth discussions. While there is plenty of content on the topic, it all is the same stuff, and is all linked to Among Us. I simply haven't found anything that would prove that it is notable as its own subject.

- Comment I think it may be a good idea for the article to be temporarily protected from recreation. Among Us is such a popular game at the moment, I could imagine people would consistently try and create an article about InnerSloth. However, I don't think this will occur often enough for the need for full protection. The article most likely needs semi-protection at the most. If it turns out that that isn't enough, extended confirmed protection may be enforced, but I simply don't see a need for full protection. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 03:37, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Among Us. There is potential this could be a possible article in the future so I see no value in deletion of the current article w/ its references at this time, but definitely redirection of that until it can be expanded further. --Masem (t) 19:49, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: I don't think it should be redirected to Among Us, either. One of the games on its own can be notable enough, but redirecting the company that made the game and others as well is kinda weird. It's like redirecting Nintendo to the Mario franchise (which I know will never happen, just saying). We should keep it open for now, and wait for more to show up. Le Panini (talk) 16:09, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment In most cases, this would be a good analogy. However, by far the most notable thing InnerSloth has done was create Among Us. Nothing they have done has came close. And so as the only notable thing they've done, redirecting InnerSloth to Among Us would make sense until they make other notable games. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 16:34, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

When you made that comment, that was in reference to a prior version of the article from previous state nominated for deletion. I undertook a research project on the article in an attempt to improve it further, after you commented. Perhaps you could compare to current state, post research and expansion project, and see if you could reevaluate? Thank you, Right cite (talk) 16:09, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect While Among Us is undeniably notable, InnerSloth hasn't met the same qualifications. They have been mentioned quite a lot in articles, and have also made the somewhat popular Henry Stickmin games and "Dig2China." However, there doesn't seem to be significant coverage about the company itself, which means InnerSloth doesn't meet the requirements to be considered notable. InnerSloth has the potential to become notable in the future, but as of the moment, the article should be deleted, and a redirect link to Among Us should be made. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 03:29, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Wikipedia doesn't create articles because a topic might some day be notable per WP:CRYSTAL. You could use the same argument for literally any topic. Thus the sourcing threshold of GNG is set in the present. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 10:02, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Redirect Leaving aside the question of redirection for the moment, first off, notability is not inherited. Even if they created the world's most famous video game of all time (they didn't), we need to see references *about the company*. The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations as per WP:NCORP is for multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. Based on that, none of the references in the article meet the criteria and having searched I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria. Topic fails GNG/WP:NCORP. As to whether there is potential in the future for an article as stated above - I would say this topic hasn't come close to meeting the criteria. If it was a case that there were a number of references which came close, a redirect would make more sense but for now, no need for a redirect. In the future, if and when it becomes notable, then an article can easily be created. HighKing⁺⁺ 12:15, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Is there a reason that InnerSloth's notability would have to do with a redirect link? I read the guidelines on redirects, and there is nothing saying that completely unnotable topics shouldn't be redirected. So regardless of the level of notability of InnerSloth, I think it would be best to create a redirect link. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 18:24, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - No reason. I'm not against a redirect in general for alternate names or subtopics, etc. Some editors say that WP:REDIRECTSARECHEAP and are happy to redirect everything and anything. I generally prefer to stick with the list at WP:RPURPOSE but its one of those areas that is a free-for-all. I've added a Redirect option in any case above.

Delete or Redirect to Among Us. While they have produced two notable games (well, questionably one notable game), that does not make them notable by association and there are not multiple in-depth reliable sources discussing them. Just name drops in articles about their games. So, they fail both WP:GNG and WP:NCORP. That said, I'd be fine with a redirect. Although, I can also see where a redirect might not be necessary compared to just deleting it. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:31, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The Escapist Magazine article "Among Us Devs Have Created a Gaming Phenomenon, Albeit Two Years After It Launched" and The Verge article "Among Us is so popular that its developers just canceled the sequel" are directly about the company and developers.

- The Escapist Magazine article discusses the game with the developers. It provides no information whatsoever about the company. There's two sentences that maybe you could argue are "Independent Content" since it is the author's own opinion which are "The most delightful thing about Innersloth is that they are fueled by excitement." and "In every word they shared, it was clear that InnerSloth was never the type of people to give up on their game." This is not in-depth coverage on the company, that reference fails WP:CORPDEPTH. The reference from The Verge also discusses the game but provides no information on the company whatsoever, fails WP:CORPDEPTH. HighKing⁺⁺ 11:21, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The two articles cited by ToughPigs are the same article and talk about the game. Not the company. The same goes for the articles you cited. One of them is literally called "The History of Among Us."

The Verge article Toughpigs meant to link is probably this. And I largely agree with Adamant1 -- these articles are not the significant coverage that GNG expects. There's barely a few sentences there about the company itself and those that have anything more at by the developers themselves, and thus not secondary. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 10:26, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry that I miscopied the URL for the Verge article; I've corrected it. The Escapist Magazine article is called "Among Us Devs Have Created a Gaming Phenomenon, Albeit Two Years After It Launched", and the Verge article is called "Among Us is so popular that its developers just canceled the sequel". Both articles have "Developers" in the title -- i.e., the company that developed the game. The articles cover choices that the company made during and after the game's initial launch. I think that the claim that the articles "talk about the game, not the company" is a misreading of NOTINHERITED. Game companies are known for developing games; that's what makes them notable. Discussion of the game that they developed is discussion of the company. The "not the company" argument implies that there could possibly be a detailed RS about a game company's choices and strategy without mentioning the games that they develop. — Toughpigs (talk) 18:53, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I disagree that "Discussion of the game that [a company] developed is discussion of the company". That, to me, is exactly what NOTINHERITED cautions against. I mean, I see and understand your argument, but I still hold that GNG requires significant discussion about the company directly rather than implicitly and with minimal use of developer's own words. What constitues "direct" and "indirect" will always be subjective, so I concede that these sources can be viewed as significant coverage, even though I personally disagree. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 20:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hellknowz, I've posted this below also but worth repeating here. WP:SIGCOV is not the applicable guideline for determining what is Significant Coverage for companies/organizations - that is WP:CORPDEPTH which is a part of WP:NCORP. "Significant Coverage" is described as Deep or significant coverage provides an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization. NCORP is also the applicable guideline for products which is why it is included in that sentence. This bit is important It doesn't mean that Significant Coverage of a product can be used to establish notability for the company and vice versa. There is a clear requirement that the reference provides an overview/description/commentary/survey/study/discussion/analysis/etc *about the company* (which is the topic here) or when the topic of an article is *about a product*, the significant coverage should be about the product. WP:NOTINHERITED simply says the same thing in a different way. HighKing⁺⁺ 21:01, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

HighKing NCORP is an extension of GNG, so GNG is always applicable (WP:SNG). But otherwise I agree with all of that. I mean, do any of my comments appear otherwise?

And yet all those are articles are still about Among Us and don't actually discuss the company beyond name dropping it. Otherwise, cite a single in-depth paragraph discussing "the company" in any of those articles. At the end of the day you can find any number of articles on pretty much any product out there that "mentions" the entity that created it. That's not the point here though and it's not what makes a company notable. Otherwise, every damn pencil manufacturer, toilet maker, widget producer, author, singer, etc. etc. would have an article and the only the thing people have to do is cite a Tweet that mentions them. What is the point here is multiple in-depth coverage pertaining to the company in multiple reliable sources.

Or, look at this another way and ask yourselves if this company would even be named dropped anywhere at this point if it was not for them producing Among Us. If your answer is no, then your only argument is that they are notable for a single thing through inheritance. Which doesn't work for notability. If your answer is yes though, it's not backed up by the sources and then you just aren't being fair about the process. In other words, find a single source that on them that isn't "mainly", or hell even partly, about Among Us. One single article on them exclusively is a ridiculously low bar to get over. --Adamant1 (talk) 02:35, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adamant1, please note that there is no requirement that a source be "primarily" about the article's subject to contribute to its Notability. SIGCOV is a flexible standard, but a few paragraphs are generally fine to provide an instance supporting the Notability of the subject. Even a single paragraph is not what policy calls a passing mention. Newimpartial (talk) 13:26, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Newimpartial: WP:NCORP says "A company is notable if "it" has been "the subject" of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources." I would consider that as saying that the source be "primarily" about the article's subject for it contribute to notability. Otherwise, there would be no reason it would have to be "the subject" of the article. While passing mentions are fine in articles, they aren't great for notability in AfDs. Just like it's perfectly fine to cite Twitter in an article to support basic facts, but something being Twitted about is not evidence of said thing being notable. Adamant1 (talk) 14:33, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:SIGCOV - it is quite clear there that Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material (emphasis added). So your suggestion that the source be "primarily" about the article's subject for it contribute to notability is in direct contradiction to policy. Also, paragraph or multi-paragraph discussions are never "passing mentions" in the context of policy; the example given in SIGCOV is the sentence In high school, (Bill Clinton) was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice, which does not lend Notability to the band. What we have in this instance are multiple sources giving multi-paragraph treatment of the article's subject which are not discussing InnerSloth's main game property. As I say below, this is a clear NCORP pass. Newimpartial (talk) 15:02, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Newimpartial, WP:SIGCOV is not the applicable guideline for determining what is Significant Coverage for companies/organizations - that is WP:CORPDEPTH which is a part of WP:NCORP. "Significant Coverage" is described as Deep or significant coverage provides an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization. NCORP is also the applicable guideline for products which is why it is included in that sentence. It doesn't mean that Significant Coverage of a product can be used to establish notability for the company and vice versa. So you are correct, there is nothing to indicate that the topic company must be the primary topic. But it does require that the reference provides "deep and significant coverage". I've read the reference from PC Invasion and I cannot where in the article it provides an overview/description/commentary/survey/study/discussion/analysis/etc *about the company*. It says "InnerSloth, the developer of Among Us, ...". Everything else even tangentially about the company (e.g. Fans were reassured that the developer is rushing to get systems in place for moderation and reporting" is attributed to a company executive which fails the definition of "Independent Content" (WP:ORGIND). HighKing⁺⁺ 20:51, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, HighKing, SIGCOV offers a widely-discussed definition that is universal to the project, while CORPDEPTH was part of a rather limited SNG process, so I don't think it is widely agreed that CORPDEPTH was intended to supercede SIGCOV on the case of organizations; I rather suspect that participants intended it to be a specification rather than a replacement. But be that as it may, I did review CORPDEPTH before commenting here, and it seems to me that you are implicitly requiring a kind of high-level organizational analysis out of the sources, to be significant, that the guideline does not actually require. I will quote what I take to be the key passage of CORPDEPTH at length: For the coverage to be significant, the sources must describe and discuss in some depth the treatment of the employees or major changes in leadership instead of just listing the fact that the corporation employs 500 people or mentioning that John Smith was appointed as the new CEO. Further, the significance is not determined by the reputation of the source. For example, a 400-word article in The Village Voice is a lot more significant than a single-sentence mention in The New York Times. Note that the example of "more significant" coverage is 400 words in a niche news source, and the content described is to discuss in some depth the treatment of the employees or major changes in leadership. What we have in Escapist and IGN each exceed both the word count and the depth of treatment requirements set out in CORPDEPTH - what is required there is depth of detail regarding corporate decisions, actions and environment, and does not necessarily require financial, organizational or cultural analysis of the kind beloved by MBAs and the commentariat. At least, not according to the passage I quoted from CORPDEPTH, and the examples therein. And these are not the only sources on InnerSloth that meet that test. Newimpartial (talk) 21:26, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The problem for me with using SIGCOV is that I don't even think it passes that. For instance looking at "Among Us Devs Have Created a Gaming Phenomenon, Albeit Two Years After It Launched." The article has like 17 paragraphs. Of which 12 "mention" InnerSloth. Which is great. Except if you break it down 1. says they spent long nights developing the game. 2. says they didn't give up and refined the game 3. They added more content 4. Every time they thought the game was done they added more to it. 5. They decided to add more stuff to the game when it got popular. 6. They share a passion for the game with their fans. 7. They are "fueled by excitement" Etc etc. The rest is more of the same. I mean great, but how does any of that qualify as "Significant coverage that addresses the topic directly and in detail"? Because it's all extremely trivial, surface level information that could apply to any video game company out there. Every single video game company works late on the game, adds content to it, and more stuff to the game as it gets more popular, shares a passion for the game with their fans, etc etc. None of that is unique to InnerSloth, "detailed", encyclopedic, or works for SIGCOV IMO. It's a company going about it's business run of the mill stuff. Which is not what the SIGCOV guideline exists for the allowence of in articles. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:55, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You know, a typical account of Caesar's invasion of Gaul could be given the same numbered-paragraph, trivializing treatment. I'm not sure whether you are questioning whether the article under discussion is specific enough to InnerSloth, or whether it is giving enough information to be useful for the WP article, or what. To me, the best answer to both of those questions is the excitement expressed at that point about the sequel - a sequel which, per other RS, is now cancelled. Since this article (and some others) actually discuss these plans and decisions in relation to the developer, rather than e.g. as news announced on Twitter, they are useful in the creation of a WP article based on independent, reliable sources. The level of significance and detail offered on this and other points in the Escapost article is exactly what we need. The point of the GNG and NCORP is to ensure that we actually have such sources for our articles, not to demand that our articles meet some personal, subjective test concerning the significance or importance of the topic - which is at best orthogonal to WP:N. Newimpartial (talk) 01:11, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, sure, I agree it could. Which is probably why Caesar's conquest of Gaul is a redirect to Gallic Wars. So, I think you proved my point. That said, WP:OTHERSTUFF is as weak an argument as IDONTLIKEIT would be. With the other part of what you said, you keep switching from guideline based arguments to support why your right, but then falling back on personal preference and emotional arguments to refute other people citing the guidelines. Which isn't really helpful. If anything, your the one making the personal, subjective tests by saying things like "points in the Escapost article is exactly what we need." I don't see anywhere here saying we need the points made in the Escapost article about them staying up late to create the game. and it's only personal opinion that we are or need that kind of information. Whereas, your the one that said the articles meet SIGCOV and when I asked how sentences like "they spent long nights developing the game" meets SIGCOV like you claim they do, your answer is "we need the information." Which is circular reasoning, just plain wrong, and more importantly has nothing to do SIGCOV. Which is what I asked you about. Not your personal opinion on what information Wikipedia readers "need" to have in articles. Which is a weird form of WP:CRYSTAL and not really relevant to AfDs. We aren't copyrighters or soothsayers, who only write articles with information we personally think people "might" like or need. It's definitely not the point in AfDs. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:27, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just to clarify - I wasn't talking previously about what readers "need" but rather what editors "need". We need statements like Most of InnerSloth’s decisions about the game’s future took place well before the unprecedented spike in player numbers that occurred in July and Knowing that the sequel has been floated since the early days of Among Us and given the excitement that fuels the InnerSloth team, there is a lot of creativity ready to be channeled into the new title (from the Escapist source), to document the history of the company. Whatever the limitations of my previous comment, the reasoning wasn't circular.

Also, I think you will find upon review that each time I have refuted someone's misinterpretation of guidelines I did so by citing guidelines and policies myself, not by falling back on personal preference and emotional arguments. Per the WP:TPG, editors are supposed to provide documentation (preferably diffs) when they discuss the behaviour of other editors, rather than casting WP:ASPERSIONS on them.

Update: Many thanks to RobotGoggles and Pikamander2 for the idea, above, to do more research on the article topic itself. Thanks also to Toughpigs for help with some of the research. I've improved the article from its prior stub format. Compare stub at time of nomination for deletion, with version of the article post research and improvement, now no longer a stub at all anymore, but rather a pretty good article and worthy of keeping on Wikipedia so as to better serve our readers who may be looking for this information and research on this topic. Thank you, Right cite (talk) 04:34, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

All you did was write a non-neutral ref bombing advert for the company that still doesn't talk about them in any in-depth, non-trivial way. Good job. As far as the guidelines are concered the article was much better before you edited it. --Adamant1 (talk) 06:26, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

2nd request that this user and I take a break from the back and forth with each other. User seems to have ignored this request, above. Right cite (talk) 06:28, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I was totally fine taking a break from it. Your the one that reverted my edited to the page and then said I should explain the though. It's kind of BS to go off about taking a break from something while you continue instigating things. This wouldn't even be a thing right now if you had of pissed of my edits and not asked me something. --Adamant1 (talk) 06:35, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, I tried to engage in discussion on the talk page. The user failed to have a good faith discussion politely, failing to volunteer any specific reasoning for their actions. Right cite (talk) 06:37, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adamant1 has not been behaving in a manner befitting Wikipedia, and refuses to discuss his differences and complaints about the article in question, on the talk page, where appropriate, choosing instead to wage an edit war, and insult Right cite's character. This needs to be addressed. RobotGoggles (talk) 07:11, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, Right cite reverted me before I had a chance to explain it on the talk page and then went off that I didn't explain it. When he/she was the one that removed the template without giving me the chance to in the first place. So, it's not on me that I wasn't given a chance to say why I added the banner. Then he/she said "either explain it or I'll remove it." Which wasn't a good faithed or polite way to see what my reason for adding it was. Plus, reverting someone once isn't "editing waring" anyway. Also, I'd love for you to point to what was "insulting Right cite character" in the message I left them on their talk page. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:39, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment — Redirect The new articles that have been provided in the AfD by Right cite talk significantly about InnerSloth, and clearly shows an increased interest in InnerSloth. However, the main topic is Among Us. At most, the articles direct focus on InnerSloth's actions and developments pertaining to the game. No media or news source finds InnerSloth notable enough to write about them as its own topic. InnerSloth's notability clearly hasn't been established per WP:NOTINHERITED. And so InnerSloth simply doesn't have the notability to keep the Wikipedia article on the subject. Also, to respond to the people that think InnerSloth should not redirect to Among Us: Among Us is by far the most notable thing that InnerSloth has done. The next notable thing, Henry Stickmin, does not even have a Wikipedia page. Reading the guidelines on redirecting, there does not seem to be any rules that are against redirecting. Among Us being a topic that is relevant to the topic of InnerSloth, and Among Us being by far the most notable thing, and the only notable topic closely related to InnerSloth, it would be best suited that InnerSloth redirects to Among Us. If InnerSloth becomes successful in creating another notable product, but still isn't notable enough to have its own page, then deleting the redirect could be considered due to unjustified emphasis of Among Us.

I also suggest semi-protection against recreation of the InnerSloth page. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 07:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm quite sorry to see that you feel all of my research was for nothing. I would ask users to take a look at this version of the page, after my research, and see if Wikipedia readers are best served by having this article remain on Wikipedia. Thank you, Right cite (talk) 07:32, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:AMOUNT. You made the article look nice, but this does not imply notability. Notability is the threshold for an article as outlined by WP:GNG: the individual sources have to have significant coverage about the subject. Every source in the article is about their games, mostly Among Us, and not the company. None of them have any substantial content about the company that isn't in developer's own words. WP:ITSUSEFUL to readers is not a criteria. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 09:01, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

But the statement, None of them have any substantial content about the company that isn't in developer's own words is not entirely accurate. It is not true of the Escapist and IGN pieces that I've reviewed in detail, and doesn't seem to be true of several other sources, either. The statement Every source in the article is about their games, mostly Among Us, and not the company makes it sounds as if a source that is "about" a game can't be SIGCOV of the company, which is not the case either in policy or in the actual sources under discussion. Newimpartial (talk) 22:48, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - could only be considered notable for Henry Stickmin collection and Among Us. Rght now the company is not that well known - not that notable to get a Wikipedia article. Let's see what future has to offer. But deletion seems to be a good choice for now. 78.36.163.169 (talk) 10:42, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Among Us - The work Right Cite put in is admirable, but it doesn't solve the problem: sources overwhelmingly talk about InnerSloth in context of Among Us and not as an individual notable company. Take this whole passage for example:

In an interview with Kotaku, Bromander explained the strengths and weaknesses behind the developers at InnerSloth.[9] Bromander lamented that they were not skilled at promoting their products, telling Kotaku, "We’re really bad at marketing."[9] Kotaku analyzed the efficiency of the development team at InnerSloth, concluding the company succeeded at persevering to improve their product even after an initial stage of failure to achieve popularity in the beginning.[9] InnerSloth developers focused on the player experience, over and above microtransactions.[20] The InnerSloth developers appreciated the Internet memes based on their work, and were driven to create an enjoyable user experience for the players.[12] Willard explained the business model behind InnerSloth, "We’re a slow-growing company. We snowball our way to the top instead of spike and tail like most Steam releases do."[9] Liu stated she started to follow video game streamers to get more ideas for artistic development at InnerSloth.[9] InnerSloth faced challenges from rapid success during 2020.[18] After an increase in popularity in 2020, Willard stated the company planned to increase server performance for August 2021.[25] After experiencing problems with hackers attacking their servers in 2020, InnerSloth responded by adapting their systems and servers.[8][21] They made modifications to allow for moderation in-game and reporting of problems to the development team.[8][21]

Virtually all this information is discussed within the context of Among Us in the sources, but that detail is missing from the article.

For example: the first claim made here is: Bromander lamented that they were not skilled at promoting their products, telling Kotaku, "We’re really bad at marketing."[9].

Now here is the original context, quoted from the source: Among Us’ Twitch explosion was not born of a too-online Twitter account, marketing machinations that leveraged Twitch’s numbers-driven structure to gain not-entirely-earned visibility, or anything like that. “We’re really bad at marketing,” Among Us artist and game designer Marcus Bromander told Kotaku during a phone interview last week.

Here is another example. The article claims InnerSloth developers focused on the player experience, over and above microtransactions.[20]

Here is the context from the source: Among Us represent a different school of thought when it comes to the future of gaming. Developers can choose to give back to their customers by adding features that encourage players to keep playing and spread the word to their friends, or they can fill games with microtransactions and rerelease what is essentially the same game every year. While the latter has certainly been successful (at least financially), Innersloth's approach sets a refreshing and consumer-friendly standard that others should follow.

Because of this editing approach, the article has become misleading, suggesting that InnerSloth's business practices with Among Us are characteristic of the company and employees. This is not what sources are claiming. In conclusion, most of the information in this article should be in the Among Us article instead with the correct context, and this article should be redirected. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 12:40, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, the approach Tarcus has taken to reading these passages is not compliant with policy. While NOTINHERITED is definitely a key principle, that does not mean that the article's subject has to be discussed entirely apart from its products to contribute to its Notability. A discussion of decisions made by developers, that resulted in qualities of the product, are relevant to both the developer and the product, just as a discussion of the Ford Motor Company's production choices is relevant to both the producer and the product. Coverage of AboutUs that does not discuss the developers and their strategic (and tactical) decisions does not contribute to the Notability of InnerSloth but coverage that does discuss these and other aspects of the developers, does. Newimpartial (talk) 16:07, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not arguing inheritance. Perhaps I'm not explaining myself correctly. Let me try to explain another way: Imagine you wrote a Wikipedia article about an old French film, and it became one of the most popular articles on Wikipedia. So popular, in fact, that some websites decide to interview you Newimpartial, the primary author. They ask you how you did it, and you say: "I spent lots of time translating old French newspaper articles into English." It would therefore be misleading to say generally about you: "Newimpartial is an editor that spends lots of time translating old French newspaper articles into English." It's misleading because it's being presented as a general characteristic about you, when you were only answering how you wrote that one French film article. It's not known if you would employ that practice for other articles. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 16:53, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I did misunderstand your comment, because I interpreted it as a comment relevant to an AfD discussion. If you are arguing as a matter of prose style that the sources are poorly reflected in the draft text, that may well be true, but that wouldn't be relevant to a discussion about Notability on WP. So to take an example similar to the one you gave, if an independent, reliable source discussed my translations, how I go about them, and so forth, that would absolutely contribute to my Notability as a translator, and not only to the Notability of whatever I had translated (though if I published a collections of translations and it received multiple, RS reviews as a work in itself, that might also be notable).

My point about INHERITance wasn't that you are using or misusing the principle, I was just noting that it is relevant. So to continue with my own example, if my collected translations were Notable but there were no additional independently and reliably sourced information about me apart from reviews of my work, that would not make me Notable, per NOTINHERITED. Newimpartial (talk) 17:28, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - multiple independent, reliable sources talk about the company, that is the developers - their actions and strategies - and not simply review or discuss the game they produced. These include Escapist magazine and IGN (see the paragraph beginning, "InnerSloth doesn't really have a professional office").

This is a clear NCORP pass, really. The relationship between video game developers and their products is different from that of literary or musical producers, and this may make it easy for editors to assume that this discussion is only "about the game, not the company" but when I actually read the sources, I see plenty of discussion about the company itself - who the principals are, and what they did - rather than only "about the game". That is what constitutes Notability, not some discussion of the company and its principals in complete abstraction from its products, which is the non-policy-compliant bar certain !voters seem to have demanded, while other votes about to "it doesn't feel notable", without reference to policy. And I haven't even talked about the sources relating to the cancellation of About Us 2, which logically are all contribute to the Notability of the company, not the first game.

TL;DR - GNG and NCORP pass, by policy, regardless of all the IDONTLIKEIT and BLUDGEON I see here in the AfD. And all the discussion about salting the topic strikes me as a kind of premature gravedancing IMO. Newimpartial 13:18, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NCORP states "a company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage." There is no clause anywhere that video game companies get a pass from that because they are "different." Nor is anyone having the expectation that the sources be about "the subject" them making an IDONTLIKEIT argument. Is an article that you cited called "How Among Us Came Back From the Brink of Obscurity" about "the subject" of this article InnerSloth? Clearly not. Especially when it is mainly comprised of things like "The tension in Among Us is perfectly balanced", "the proliferation of Among Us' popularity can be chalked up to the simplicity of the design.", "Among Us has a bright future ahead of it", "Among Us is built on old tech", etc etc. It's not an "IDONTLIKEIT" arguement to say those sentences are about the game. Which isn't what this article is about. It's just the facts. Same goes for the other source. "Given its current status as the most viewed game on Twitch, you have probably heard of or played "Among Us"", "Now, obviously InnerSloth never really gave up on "Among Us"; the team has spent its post-release period refining "the game" with very quiet success, so you can understand why they announced that Among Us was complete back in January", "Shortly after the game launched, Willard mentioned that a Korean YouTuber "picked up the game"", etc etc. Is "the subject" in any of the that the developer or is "the subject" of all those sentences the game? --Adamant1 (talk) 14:12, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't BLUDGEON. As I stated in response to your similarly misleading comment above, it is clearly stated in WP:SIGCOV that Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material (emphasis added). So your question, Is an article that you cited called "How Among Us Came Back From the Brink of Obscurity" about "the subject" of this article InnerSloth? is not relevant to policy - what is relevant is whether the article gives significant treatment to the company in its content (it does). Paragraph or multi-paragraph discussions are never "passing mentions" in the context of policy; the example given in SIGCOV is the sentence In high school, (Bill Clinton) was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice, which does not lend Notability to the band. What we have in this instance are multiple sources giving multi-paragraph treatment of the article's subject which are not discussing InnerSloth's main game property. This is a clear NCORP pass, and your claim that I am treating video game companies as "different" is a STRAWMAN, thanks. What I am saying is that editors may not recognize the distinction between creator and work as readily in this context, but to me the distinction is obvious and should be applied consistently. Newimpartial (talk) 15:05, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

How is it misleading to directly cite a guideline? Especially since it's the one your citing to say this is notable. There aren't multiple sources of multi-paragraph discussions of the company anyway. So, your point about it is moot about it. As far as the "STRAWMAN" thing goes, your the one that said "The relationship between video game developers and their products is different from that of literary or musical producers." It's not a strawman to repeat what you said and you said they were different. "Different" was the exact word you used. Nice try though. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:26, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your statement above is misleading because you are misreading NCORP - "the subject of significant coverage" cannot mean "the main topic of articles giving significant coverage" because that would conflict with SIGCOV where the concept of "significant coverage" is defined. Instead, it means quite literally the subject of significant coverage, as in, the reliable sources actually give significant coverage to the subject. And there are certainly many sources giving full paragraphs of coverage to the company, aside from the game, including the two I linked above.

And if you are confused by my saying that the "relationship" is different for video game developers, which confuses editors, so it is hard for them to maintain consistent treatment about Notability, then I will try harder to be clear in the future. But your construal that video game companies get a pass from that because they are "different" is most definitely a STRAWMAN and almost directly the opposite of what I have been consistently saying here. I am saying that if you aren't confused by the discussion being about video game developers, the coverage here clearly supports the Notability of the company per NCORP. Newimpartial (talk) 15:44, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

All mentions of Among Us can be thought of as mere details of Among Us. The developers of Among Us persisted and created a viral game. Updates were made to Among Us. Developers created Among Us. Developers love the Among Us memes. InnerSloth isn't written about purely because of the fact that they are Inner Sloth. The sole reason that InnerSloth has significant content written about them is because of Among Us. To rephrase, the only reason that InnerSloth has significant content about them is because they happened to create the viral game, Among Us. By your logic, regardless of the group that created Among Us, they were bound to automatically be notable. If a single person created Among Us, and significant content were made on the person, they would have an article per your logic. Clearly, the unnotability of InnerSloth is made clear with WP:NOTINHERITED. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 18:04, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

By that logic, the article Albert Einstein must not include any sources that mention the Theory of relativity, only Einstein's life itself. Right cite (talk) 18:18, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(E/c) But GeicoGECKO, you have set out a mistaken interpretation of NOTINHERITED. The policy-relevant question is whether there are independent, reliable sources with information about an article's topic sufficient to pass the WP:GNG and, in this instance, WP:NCORP. The key, defining element of NOTINHERITED, in the present context, is the following: parent notability should be established independently; notability is not inherited "up", from notable subordinate to parent, either: not every manufacturer of a notable product is itself notable. However, NOTINHERITED neither states nor implies that sources discussing a product cannot count to the Notability of its creator if they also provide verifiable information about their creator, as many of the sources do in this case. Attempts to assess the "significance" of the parent (in this case the software developer) to decide Notability runafoul of the injunction on WP:N that importance is not the measure of Notability. The policy-relevant significance of coverage concerns *whether* the sources exist and whether *they* are sufficient, not *why* the sources exist or whether the *subject* is significant. Newimpartial (talk) 18:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please all, don't bold for emphasis. Makes it very hard to read this page. Use italics if you must. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 18:33, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The subject in question must have independent notability. My point is that InnerSloth's notability relies almost solely on Among Us. Just because the topic is significantly mentioned doesn't make it notable. All independent information so far provided has information on InnerSloth with respect to some sort of connection to Among Us. It does not have independent notability. The notability of InnerSloth relies almost solely on the notability of Among Us, and the majority of the significant coverage of InnerSloth directly relates to Among Us. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 19:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have just reviewed NCORP again, and I don't see any basis there for your notion of independent notability of a company, as in, independent from its products. I have already reviewed NOTINHERITED and find no policy basis for it there. GEICOgecko, are you finding a policy basis for this concept somewhere else? If so, could you point me in the right direction? Newimpartial (talk) 19:36, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Newimpartial, see WP:INHERITORG which says The organization or corporation itself must have been discussed in reliable independent sources for it to be considered notable. Or take a look at WP:CORPDEPTH, a part of WP:NCORP, which defines "Significant Coverage" as follows: Deep or significant coverage provides an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization. NCORP is also the applicable guideline for products which is why it is included in that sentence. This bit is important It doesn't mean that Significant Coverage of a product can be used to establish notability for the company and vice versa. There is a clear requirement that the reference provides an overview/description/commentary/survey/study/discussion/analysis/etc *about the company* (which is the topic here) or when the topic of an article is *about a product*, the significant coverage should be about the product. WP:NOTINHERITED simply says the same thing in a different way. There is no notability through association. An article about a product doesn't confer notability on the company that makes the product and vice versa. HighKing⁺⁺ 21:14, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

HighKing, I wish editors would not BLUDGEON the discussion so that I have to give the same reply to the same editor on the same topic in several places. My reply to your comments on CORPDEPTH is in this edit. As far as WP:INHERITORG is concerned, it rightly specifies that sources have to give significant coverage about the company, not the product to count towards the Notability of the company. I, with all right thinking editors, agree with this. This does not mean that, if the topic of the article is the product, what is said in that article about the company doesn't count the company's Notability (or vice versa), so long as CORPDEPTH is satisfied. This conflicts with your reading above when you say, An article about a product doesn't confer notability on the company. I just don't see any basis for that in policy: rather, the same source can contribute to the Notability of a product, and an organization, and a person, if what it contains is significant treatment of all three within the source. An article about a product doesn't necessarily contribute to the Notability of a company, but it can if it contains sufficient coverage of the company in question. Newimpartial (talk) 21:43, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment BTW, as the article currently stands Among Us is mentioned more times in it then the company is. Yet somehow the article, and the sources it's based on, are about the company and not the game. Right....At this point it's just a glorified WP:FORK of Among Us. --Adamant1 (talk) 14:46, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As I understand it, this article has been nominated for deletion on grounds of Notability. As such, the text of any particular draft of the article is strictly irrelevant - what matters is the state of potential sources for the article, in terms of policy. So let's try to keep the discussion on topic, please. Newimpartial (talk) 15:07, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:AFD says "Articles for deletion (AfD) is where Wikipedians discuss whether an article should be deleted." That's it. Nothing confines the discussion to just being about notability. Also, it should be obvious that the discussion is based on the current state of the article. That's exactly what new "voters" who are coming along are judging it on. Not how it was when it was originally created or whatever. So, it's 100% on topic to discuss the current state of the article and to discuss whatever is included in "whether an article should be delete." Which again, isn't just confined to notable. Id say even more so if the article has been drastically alterted from the version it was in when the AfD was opened like here. Its not like people can't walk and chew bubble gum at the same time anyway. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:26, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, chill. WP:BLUDGEON. Also, WP:SHOUTING. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 15:40, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please recognize WP:ARTN: Notability is a property of a subject and not of a Wikipedia article ... if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability. Now, Adamant1, perhaps you mean to be making a policy-compliant argument here at AfD that isn't about WP:N (including NCORP and SIGCOV arguments) but if so, I must have missed it somewhere above. Newimpartial (talk) 15:52, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If other topics are relevant to the deletion of the article, then it should be talked about, but at the moment, it seems that the main and biggest concern is that of notability, which has nothing to do about the state of the article itself. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 17:47, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that Adamant1's behavior in this conversation is an example of WP:BLUDGEONing, which is not productive. They have posted 13 times in the conversation so far, which is unnecessary. The participant who has the last word in every exchange is not rewarded with the outcome of their choice. — Toughpigs (talk) 18:57, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If I'm committing WP:BLUDGEONing then I expect the same standard to apply to Newimpartial who has commented 19 times (while accusing other people of WP:BLUDGEON) and also Right cite who has commented 23 times (23!) while taking the same position as Newimpartial that other people's comments are WP:BLUDGEON and there's are perfectly legit. At least in my case I was responded to other people's responses to what I said and my comments have to do with the AfD and the article. Whereas, Rite cite has mostly only written self agrandizing comments about how great their editing to the article was and written a bunch of personal, off topic, poor me messages that had nothing to do with policy or the AfD. Whereas, in the case of Newimpartial, all they have done is repeat the same crap over and over and critized other people's comments. None of which has been constructive or helpful. Sure, single me out though as commenting to much. Not the person that's wroten 23 messages. So feel free to say the same thing to Rite cite and Newimpartial. Otherwise, you can piss off. In the meantime I'm going to keep responding to people who have pinged me or responded to my messages etc. I don't give a crap how many messages it takes to do so either. Hell, HELLKNOWZ has commented 10 times. So has TheGEICOgecko. HighKing has commented 9 times. Feel free to chide them about WP:BLUDGEON also. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:31, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ten of my 19 edits to this page (prior to this one) were minor copy edits. The moral of that story is that edit counts are not a good measure of the weight or reach of one's BLUDGEON. I would also point out that some of my replies were in response to your, and HighKing's, decisions to repeat your replies to me in different subthreads, in which you were not previously involved. I haven't worked out an entirely satisfactory way of dealing with that, but I have trouble ignoring it. I am reasonably confident, though, that HighKing and yourself have each contributed more characters to this discussion than I have, in spite of your lower edit counts.

Also, your comment that all (I) have done is repeat the same crap over and over and critized other people's comments doesn't really give me credit for correcting people's misreadings of NCORP, NOTINHERITED, CORPINHERIT, SIGCOV and CORPDEPTH. That was actual work to do (and inevitably consumed a few diff and you should at least be WP:CIVIL about it. Newimpartial (talk) 00:46, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Except I was going by how many times you had signed your comments. Which, after double checking was actually 14, but still one more then me. While no one is accusing you of WP:BLUDGEON and your accusing me of doing it. When you've had the same amount of comments. So, my point still stands. Either apply the rule to everyone who is "over commenting" (whatever bar that is) or shove off and don't chide other people about rules your ignoring. As far as WP:CIVIL goes, I'm not a fan of hypocrisy, especially ToughPigs version of it, and I don't consider pointing the finger at or singling out a single user for something that other people are doing and way worse "civil." 100% I'm into civility, but I'm not going to just be mister polite and be the only one to get shit for things other people are doing and way worse. Thanks though. You want civility, cool. Then be civil. If you want to not BLUDGEON, cool. Then don't BLIDGEON yourself and don't single people out for it. If not though, don't expect other people to be civil if your not willing to and don't expect to be the only loud voice in the room. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:10, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What in the name of God, just decide if the article is notable or not! You argued on stupid things such as someone's tone or apperance! So less on the article itself, and if you did, you were wrong! The article is NOT notable. Sources about the articke are mostly Trivia or unreliable. They dont point exactly to the company, but to the game, and this article is about the company, not the game! It will be notable in the future, but until then, it has to be redirected and protected against recreation (I learnt that from WP:ATA. So please stop!

Adamant1, all they have done is repeat the same crap over and over and critized other people's comments is simply not a civil comment, particularly when untrue as in this case. And my original BLIDGEON complaint came when you posted these edits making the same misreading of NCORP (that coverage of the "subject" only counts if it is the main "subject" of the article) - in two places so that I felt required to respond to both. Since then, HighKing did the exact same thing about CORPDEPTH (in three places, two following my comments), which was equally frustrating but I hope to have handled it better.

Oh, and Billy Beagle - Notability isn't a property of articles. Thanks. Newimpartial (talk) 10:28, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You are insanely wrong, Newimpartial. Isnt just notability a property of articles, but it is also the most important. Notabiliy is the most important property of an article. Only, and ONLY notabiliy will keep an article alive. Read WP:N, WP:1ST, and WP:TRIV. Billy Beagle (talk) 8:02, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Billy, you are contradicting WP:ARTN, which states: Notability is a property of a subject and not of a Wikipedia article ... if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability. Also, I think insanely wrong is a violation of WP:CIVIL. Please don't do that. Newimpartial (talk) 11:01, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, but improve: There is no merit to delete this article, it needs to be improved, yes, but it is inherently notable. Deletion makes no sense, when it could easily be improved and rewritten. Sean Stephens (talk) 03:26, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just so you know, the current version is the improved and rewritten version. At this point doing any more "improving" of it would be like trying to squeeze blood from a turnip. The only option to make it "better" IMO would be turn it into a stub, but then it would be right back in the same place it was when the AfD was started. Unfortunately, the sources and miss-leading way they are being used (which is really the only way it seems like they can be used) doesn't allow for anything beyond that though. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:32, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the developer is discussed in a number of articles. Some of these are in passing, but many are non-trivial. And frankly the article is pretty solid.

Keep The company produced a game that became popular worldwide. As they only produced a notable game, it is normal that when finding articles about Innersloth, there is also mention of Among Us. However, the sources also talk about the developers, not just limited to the game. Gamesutra speaks about the Among us 2 cancellation, but it also talks a little about the company when it touches on its future plans. The same with CBR, and others sources. But the article needs improves. ✍A.WagnerC (talk) 03:45, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The following are some points that may have been talked about a good bit, but I would like to chime in with my view on the things that I have yet to address. To sum up what I'm about to say, we need to focus on WP:SIRS, content in articles about Among Us doesn't make InnerSloth notable just because they are mentioned a whole bunch (they just happen to be the developers), and there is a source that's been buried in the discussion that should be more seriously considered that may make a progression to considering InnerSloth as notable.

WP:CORPDEPTH states, "Quantity does not determine significance. It is the quality of the content that governs. A collection of multiple trivial sources do not become significant. Views, hits, likes, shares, etc. have no bearing on establishing whether the coverage is significant. Similarly, arbitrary statistics and numbers (such as number of employees, amount of revenue or raised capital, age of the company, etc.) do not make the coverage significant. For the coverage to be significant, the sources must describe and discuss in some depth the treatment of the employees or major changes in leadership instead of just listing the fact that the corporation employs 500 people or mentioning that John Smith was appointed as the new CEO." Additionally, one guideline that doesn't seem to have been brought up as often is that WP:SIRS states that multiple sources must independently meet the criteria of being an independent, reliable, secondary source that significantly covers the company.

Collectively, the sources would clearly pass the requirements, as one can see from the Wikipedia article. However, it doesn't seem that any single source meets the criteria on its own. I admit I didn't search for sources that meet the criteria the most throughly, but I looked at 10-15 sources from Wikipedia that seemed the most likely to contain significant coverage on InnerSloth, based on the title and the context of which the source was included. The only ones that had significant coverage (content about how InnerSloth made Among Us does not count as information on InnerSloth, it's information solely on Among Us, and per WP:NOTINHERITED, this doesn't count as significant information on InnerSloth), aside from their LinkedIn page, are sources 31 and 32. Source 32 is just an interview (mostly a primary source) between developers and a YouTuber. Source 31 is similarly an interview, and it also may not be a reliable source (though I'm not sure).

It is important to keep in mind that Among Us is a huge phenomenon: it is extremely viral, and it was created by very small developers. Because of this, there is bound to be a good lot of content on the developers. However, each source only makes small remarks on the developers. Most of the content is just a name drop when Among Us and the developments to the game are being discussed. In order for the article on InnerSloth to stay, there needs to be multiple independent, reliable, and secondary sources that significantly cover InnerSloth in some depth.

However, after a quick scan of sources mentioned in this AfD, I found a single source that may count as a qualifying source. Newimpartial linked 2 sources in one reply. One of the sources was merely content of how Among Us was developed (just because InnerSloth happened to be the creators of Among Us doesn't mean they are notable, and the fact that their names were mentioned doesn't mean anything). However, this source seems much more likely to be considered. It is an independent, reliable, secondary source. And it seems to signficantly cover InnerSloth in ways that diverge enough from Among Us to be considered content on the company itself in some form. I think we should discuss whether this source significantly covers InnerSloth. Of course, we need multiple sources that meet the requirements, but I think it would help to take one step at a time. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 09:35, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There are a couple of points here that bear further comment, I think. First of all, the statement content in articles about Among Us doesn't make InnerSloth notable by itself would be misleading, because I think we all know by now that the policy-relevant question per CORPDEPTH isn't what the main topic of the article is, but whether the article contains sufficient material about the company to meet CORPDEPTH and SIRS. But then the Geico Gecko says that such content doesn't make InnerSloth notable just because they are mentioned a whole bunch (emphasis added), so if this is read literally, as a restrictive clause, then it is entirely valid. If these sources are confined to trivial mentions that do not meet the significance test, then they do not contribute - but this is not measured by the topic of title of the source, a mistaken argument made at some length at this AfD.

However. GeicoGecko does make a new argument against policy, namely that content about how InnerSloth made Among Us does not count as information on InnerSloth. I don't see any basis in SIRS or CORPDEPTH for this claim - RS information about the development decisions InnerSloth made is just as relevant to the company's notability as the product decisions Ford Motor Company has made to its. (A quite different argument could be made based on this, namely that Notability does not guarantee an article and that while the company is notable, the information about it would be better presented in an article integrated with its major product than in a standalone. However, the existence of other products and the trajectory of decisions about the About Us lead me to the tentative conclusion that a separate article is best - anyway, that isn't about the Notability of the company, which was the issue raised in this AfD.)

Also, the citation the Geico Gecko gives from CORPDEPTH leaves out what I think is the most interesting part: For the coverage to be significant, the sources must describe and discuss in some depth the treatment of the employees or major changes in leadership instead of just listing the fact that the corporation employs 500 people or mentioning that John Smith was appointed as the new CEO. Further, the significance is not determined by the reputation of the source. For example, a 400-word article in The Village Voice is a lot more significant than a single-sentence mention in The New York Times (Emphasis added). The example of a more significant source - not a threshold, but an example, presumably a clear pass - is set at 400 words in a niche publication. Each of the sources I linked earlier include more than 400 words that are about the company, its decisions and its corporate environments (excluding quotations), and this is not listing facts - the kind of information CORPDEPTH}} tells us to discount, but akin to discussing the treatment of the employees or major changes in leadership.

The additional source that the Geico Gecko has examined in depth (thank you!), plus the other two I linked above, should make the NCORP pass entirely clear. Newimpartial (talk) 11:01, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"A mistaken argument made at some length at this AfD." Or more likely your just misconstruing things and interpreating the guidelines wrong. Anyway, the last bit of your message is wrong. It doesn't "clearly pass NCORP" just because of the two sources that you linked to aside from the in-depth one. --Adamant1 (talk) 11:09, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The idea that coverage of the "subject" only counts if it is the main "subject" of the article is simply a mistake, and is contradicted by CORPDEPTH and SIGCOV. Take the High King's word for it if you don't believe me. And all three of the sources I mentioned meet the CORPDEPTH standard, not just the new one. Newimpartial (talk) 11:25, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You could totally put the whole "main subject of the article" thing aside though and the articles still wouldn't meet either standard. As neither relates to brief mentions. CORPDEPTH has the word "DEPTH" in it for a reason. The guideline even says "Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject is not sufficient to establish notability." Which you keep ignoring while repeating the whole thing about how the article doesn't have to be only on the company when that was only one part of what was being argued. Just like you ignored me when I asked you how sentences like "They are "fueled by excitement" qualifies as Significant detailed coverage, or for that matter how it isn't "Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject." Let alone what's "depth" about it. I'd like an answer. Since 99% of what your claiming passes CORPDEPTH and SIGCOV is exactly that kind of superficial, surface level thing. Or are you going to claim the actual content of the articles don't matter? --Adamant1 (talk) 11:39, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As I have said before, the two articles I am talking about give information about the company's decisions and environment, of the same kind as the treatment of the employees or major changes in leadership - the examples given in CORPDEPTH. Four hundred words or more about the decisions made by the developers, their motivations, and the context within which they made those decisions cannot be trivial or incidental coverage by any policy-compliant standard, and both of the articles I mentioned - in addition to the third one - meet that standard. I have already given examples of how this information can be used, such as documenting InnerSloth's plans and hopes around the About Us sequel followed by the decision to cancel the sequel and concentrate on the original property. Newimpartial (talk) 12:00, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's laughably false and patently wrong by every measure. Anyway, as has been stated about 100 times now and should obvious the article is about the company. Not the game. So, 100% "the decisions made by the developers, their motivations, and the context within which they made those decisions" in relation to the game is trivial in an article about the company. Even if this was the Among Us article though, your assertion would still be extremely laughable. --Adamant1 (talk) 12:23, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adamant1, what do you think of the article I suggested to pass WP:SIRS? Of course, a single article won't make InnerSloth notable, but it would certainly be a significant step to confirming InnerSloth's notability if it counts as significant coverage. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 12:45, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

All Among Us content is about Among Us. It has nothing to do about the company of InnerSloth except for in ways that WP:NOTINHERITED addresses. For example, if an article talks about Among Us 2 being cancelled without mentioning InnerSloth once, how is that any different from if the article described the cancellation of Among Us 2 in a way that expressed active decisions from InnerSloth? To say "InnerSloth decided to cancel Among Us 2 because Among Us 1 was popular" should not be any differently taken into account then "Among Us 2 was cancelled due to the popularity of Among Us 1." Treating them different is to argue for InnerSloth's notability based on inherited notability of AmongUs, or to argue for notability based off of the company simply being mentioned. This methodology of analyzing articles is the minimum critique of notability needed to avoid violating NOTINHERITED. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 12:42, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your statement All Among Us content is about Among Us sounds theological to me. If what you mean by it is that content about the company's decisions and the experiences of its personnel with respect to the game (or something like that) count only to the Notability of the game and not the company, I would like to see a policy basis for that please. It certainly isn't in WP:NOTINHERITED or WP:INHERITORG.

And I have never remotely suggested that InnerSloth is Notable because its games are Notable, which is what NOTINHERITED is about. But none of the INHERITED policies suggest that coverage of a company in relation to its products is excluded from demonstrating the Notability of the company, so long as the sources satisfy CORPDEPTH with respect to the company. In fact, a company's decisions in relation to its products are routinely included in the DUE coverage of the company; I have been using Ford Motor Company#Products and services#Trucks as my example above, but Apple Inc.#Products#Apple watch might be even more clear about this. Also, the Geico gecko's assertion that the content of the sources I mentioned would not be "different" - I assume, in the sense of removing information - by removal of the mentions of InnerSloth and its employees seems totally implausible to me for the articles in question. I agree with the principle of the test - that name dropping does not contribute to Notability - but find the Geico gecko's interpretation of how it would apply in this case, err, puzzling. Newimpartial (talk) 14:45, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am saying that developments on a game isn't about the company. InnerSloth is merely mentioned in the articles about Among Us. InnerSloth actively made these developments and improvements to the game. InnerSloth actively created the game. However, information about the game is simply not information about the company. There needs to be content about the company itself. You make a good point that perhaps the experience of the personnel with respect to the game may be considered content on the topic of InnerSloth, of which only the depth may need to be discussed. Your argument using Ford trucks and Apple watches don't seem to make sense, it seems backwards such that Ford and Apple are more notable than their products, and seems irrelevant (I may simply misunderstand this argument). As of my argument of removing mentions of InnerSloth, I simply make my point that the only reason InnerSloth is being mentioned is because they are the creators of the game. Any single mention could be removed. I do not argue that it would be desirable or plausible for an article to remove all mentions of InnerSloth, but rather that the mentions of the general idea of the company isn't necessary. When the mention of the company is necessary (or very implausible to remove a particular mention) to say what needs to be said (e.g. The company's reaction to the Among Us memes), that's when it is content on the company itself. This isn't something in any particular guideline, but to deem something as content on the company, this seems the best way to do so. I don't see how this methodology could be significantly flawed.

With such a methodololy, content that is more closely related to Among Us can be considered, relative to the Delete and Redirect people have tended to argue. This includes the reaction to the fanbase and the dedicated backstory behind Among Us. Perhaps then, it may be much more likely that another source aside from the IGN source provided by you may qualify as significant coverage. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but it seems that WP:SIRS, in respect to consideration of WP:NOTINHERITED, are the most likely guidelines to require the deletion of this article, and that if these requirements are met, it is likely that this article will remain. If that is true, then I have much higher hopes that we will be able to keep this article after some more discussion.

Does anyone that thinks we should Delete or Redirect the article have any thoughts on this? I believe that this reasoning may be a bit too lenient, but as of the moment can't think of any reason why it would be such. TheGEICOgecko (talk) 16:35, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Unlike my previous argument, I would like to note that, yes, this company is mostly notable for Among Us, but that case doesn't make it NOT notable.

Redirect to Among Us for now. It has been well demonstrated that Among Us is notable, and that its developers have received coverage through that game. What has not -- insofar as I have seen so far -- been demonstrated is that the notability extends beyond Among Us. That doesn't mean they aren't notable, but that we don't need two articles based on the same coverage. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 23:55, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Of course now all the inclusionist ARS drones who lack any kind of scrupples about this are going to come along to vote keep like a bunch of lemmings and derail the whole thing. Hopefully the closer considers who's voting and discounts votes that don't make a good policy based arguement (the same goes for delete voters btw. There just isn't a "deletion squad" group though). Also, Right cite posting about the AfD everywhere, mostly in places that are likely to pull in keep voters, after it seemed like the article would probably be deleted or redirected is totally a form of a WP:CANVAS and shouldn't be allowed. The guidelines are pretty clear that "recruiting editors perceived as having a common viewpoint for a group" shouldn't be done. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:43, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kindly assume good faith. When the article was nominated it looked like this. [10] Hardly anything to it. Now it has developed into something far greater. Anyone who voted to delete/redirect it before it was massively expanded, should take another look at it now. Dream Focus 01:05, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Invoking WP:AGF when someone cites a guideline not being followed is a pretty mediocre way to deal with it. I know the WP:CANVASing is to your benefit, but you should still be against it. I would have been totally fine if this was posted to ARS at the beginning of the AfD when it wasn't close to closing and the opinions weren't essentially split or swaying toward merge/delete, but doing it at this point isn't appropriate IMO. Especially since both Rite cite and ARS clearly have a keep agenda and ARS isn't a neutral Wikiproject. The important thing is that the process is fair (whichever way the AfD goes). Which has nothing to do with WP:AGF. It isn't fair to the process to post about the AfD on a pro keep forum a day before the AfD is closing, after vigrious discussion, just because things aren't going the way the person wants them to. Also, a good portion of the delete/merge voters have been involved in the article during the "improvement" process (including me) and still stick by their original votes, because it being "expanded" hasn't actually dealt with the original issues with it and has led to the article having other problems, like being an advert and a fork of Among Us. Plus there's been delete/merge votes since the changes anyway. So, the answer here isn't that everyone should just take another look at the article and change their votes to keep "because expansion." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamant1 (talk • contribs)

Comment: It looks very likely that this will be closed a "no consensus", just because it's going to be impossible for the closer to make any sense out of who's saying what. Who wants to deal with all this mess? If people want a closer to pay attention to who's voting and weigh their arguments, then you shouldn't post huge paragraph after paragraph, and stop responding to everyone who says something that you disagree with. It bloats the discussion, until it's impossible for anyone to come up with a rational consensus. Stating your argument concisely and then getting out of the way is key for making sure that your point gets across. — Toughpigs (talk) 03:26, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kind of like how doing a running commentary on how many times someone has commented like you have done would make things hard to parse through. Although, you and the ARS crowd benefit it being hard to read more then anyone else. So, if this does end in no consensus or keep feel free to pat yourself on the backs for a job well done. That said, most of the comments were pretty concise and I'm sure the ones that weren't aren't going to effect the outcome that much anyway. Personally, I'd be totally fine with a no-consensus close. At least then it could be contested or re-nominated easier. As it's clear there has been WP:CANVASing etc etc going on. --Adamant1 (talk) 04:48, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments Is this a politically motivated deletion request? I fail to see the benefit of this deletion and I don't know why, but scope_creep nomination seems somewhat aggressive in his point of view towards SIGCOV. So Al-Obaidly is mentioned in many of the citations provided by name. The BBC one writes

"The chief executive of the Qatar-based TV giant beIN Sport, Yousef al-Obaidly, has written to the chairs of top-flight clubs about the deal, which could see the Magpies bought by a Saudi-backed consortium.
In the letter, Al-Obaidly accuses the Saudi Arabian government of the "facilitation of the near three-year theft of the Premier League's commercial rights - and in turn your club's commercial revenues - through its backing of the huge-scale beoutQ pirate service".
"It is no exaggeration to say that the future economic model of football is at stake," added Al-Obaidly, who has also written to Premier League chief executive Richard Masters."

The BBC are writing direct quotations and naming the person for it. The businessyear.com interviewed and profile the man, with Sportspromedia.com. Seriously, a google search provides the guy exists and gives credence to notability. I've seen far worse articles kept. There are now 31 citations, it's not about what each citation says or does, it's about building the story, using everything together that creates the content. So I am sorry, but this is just plain targeted deletion and I don't like that. Govvy (talk) 13:06, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. I am not seeing an appetite for deletion here, rather I see discussion on how the content of the article might be preserved and organised. Some sources have been presented to support the appellation of 'Little Switzerland' for Lynton and Lynmouth and I note that the nominator indicates support for a suggestion put forward for reorganising the content. I’m going to close this as keep and invite editors to continue this discussion elsewhere and to work on this article as part of the normal process of editing to resolve any issues.

Little Switzerland (Lynton & Lynmouth)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I have not been able to find any reliable sources that support the idea that the area around Lynton and Lynmouth is known as Little Switzerland, suggesting that the term is not widely known and unlikely to meet WP:NOTABLE. There are separate articles on Lynton and Lynmouth. The original Wikipedia article dates from November 2015‎. The Parson's Cat (talk) 18:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I have just gone through and followed up all the references in the article, making sure they are complete and doing verification checks. HTH The Parson's Cat (talk) 21:42, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The Little Switzerland name is reasonably well-sourced within the article. And the villages are like a twin city, sharing the same local administration, and so an article about this is appropriate. Andrew🐉(talk) 19:57, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Andrew Davidson: Thanks, Andrew. I felt that the references in the article didn’t support the statements - for example, the evidence cited for Victorian use of the term ‘Little Switzerland’ was a pair of advertising sites, none of which said anything about this.

Maybe merge into one of the settlements or alternatively to a new Lynton and Lynmouth? It seems odd to have an article on a descriptive term for a place rather than describing it in the place. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:27, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Crouch, Swale:. Thanks - what do you think of moving the verifiable component - which seems small but documents the poets - to the Exmoor article? The Parson's Cat (talk) 07:30, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The reference to Exmoor appears to be in relation to it, the actual content appears to only relate to Lynton and Lynmouth. There doesn't appear to be anything that isn't about these 2 places in the article. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:36, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I really wish this wasn't being discussed under threat of deletion because there is a lot for discussion other than keep or delete. I remember what at the time (1952) was called the Lynton and Lynmouth disaster (which I still see mentioned on Google) but which WP calls the Lynmouth Flood. I've never heard of "Little Switzerland". So some sort of merge ought to be possible as C,S suggests. Thincat (talk) 12:10, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Thincat: As well as the Lynmouth flood article, there is a strong mention in the Lynmouth article. (There's a Lynton article too, and a current discussion about merging them.) What information were you hoping to see kept? If it's not there, I'm sure that's a possibility?

I'm entirely bemused why anyone should think it a good idea to nominate this article for deletion one day and, the day after, propose a merger into this same topic. Never mind, what happens at AFD is essentially arbitrary. I have other things to think about and will do nothing while deletion may be imminent. Thincat (talk) 19:01, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Thincat: I don't see it that way. My understanding is that here: we're discussing here whether to delete an article saying an area of Devon is known as Little Switzerland. In my mind, the question here is to whether there's verifiable evidence of notable usage of the term Little Switzerland.) This is separate from the merge question - this page isn't involved in that. The Parson's Cat (talk) 10:04, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The phrase is certainly used. See Devon’s Little Switzerland, which is published by Devon County Council and so reasonably authoritative. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:32, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Andrew - that looks to me like promotional material from a tourist board, created on their behalf by a third-party organisation. I wouldn't see it as authorititive - I'd see it as coming under WP:QUESTIONABLE. I agree that some local authority information could be viewed as authoritative, but I don't think this is it. Are there any sources that would count as reliable sources as per WP:RS? The Parson's Cat (talk) 12:54, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe there is a conspiracy, led by Bill Bryson, to say the area is (or was) called "Little Switzerland"[20][21] Or maybe these are also not to be regarded as authoritative or responsible along with the visitor guides to be deprecated.[22][23] And, by the way, keep Thincat (talk) 13:09, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your first source - which actually seems to be a chapter by Tristram Hunt - does seem to be our first good source, and I think the second one is reasonable, too. Well done for finding these. The Parson's Cat (talk) 21:23, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment If this was my encyclopedia I would (1) close down this AFD, (2) move Little Switzerland (Lynton & Lynmouth) to Lynton and Lynmouth over the redirect, (3) merge in from Lynton and Lynmouth material that is relevant to both villages, (4) give mention and links out to Lynton, Lynmouth, Lynmouth Flood and Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway (and others?). I would retain the Little Switzerland dab page. But if certain people turn up here and vote delete all this work would be undone so it should be kept on hold for now. Thincat (talk) 10:29, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That could be the outcome of this AfD I would be 100% behind this solution. The Parson's Cat (talk) 18:36, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Very weak keep: (It was I who nominated the article for speedy deletion.) Since then, and indeed since this AfD nomination, the article had been cleaned up and the referencing has been expanded a bit.

Keep - has received significant coverage in reliable sources (Vice, Medium, CBC, CTVNews). ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 10:46, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: What is the potential coverage in reliable sources here?

1 is a Vice article that appears to be a human-interest story about "a YouTube rabbit hole" the author went down. I accept this as an RS, but only a weak one that would need ~~several~~ multiple others to constitute WP:BASIC.
2, on CTV.com, is another human-interest story, but only on a local news network for Edmonton. This appears to be a story on a local person getting 15 minutes of fame on the internet. I would only count this as an RS if it were on a national Canadian news network.
3, I wouldn't consider Miniflix (a subpublication of Medium) to be an RS either. See Wikipedia's list of perennial discussions, including 3 about Medium.
4, a 7-minute CBC radio story, on Radio Active with Adrienne Pan, seems too short and cursory to count as "significant coverage."

A brief search on Google News doesn't show any other RS, so per WP:BASIC, I vote to delete. If one more article comes out comparable to the Vice article, I'll be on the fence, and if two come out, I'll change my vote to keep. I also encourage editors to take a look at WP:NYOUTUBE. Jmill1806 (talk) 20:15, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The first two citations already in the article are in-depth profile pieces by Goal.com and Siam Sport, both reliable sources, thus satisfying the GNG. --Paul_012 (talk) 02:42, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The one by Goal.com looks SIGCOV but the Siam one is an interview from top to bottom, there isn't coverage, much less SIGCOV, even in between the bits. The rest have no qualifying coverage either. Since this is a footballer who doesn't even meet the often laughed-at lax requirements of NFOOTY, we need to incontrovertibly establish GNG. I am not sure that two sources would meet the "multiple" requirement for someone who doesn't meet an SNG, and we've got just one. Usedtobecool ☎️ 05:29, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Fair analysis of the source, but I'd say whether a subject meets the GNG should be viewed independently of the SNG. A single piece of coverage is probably already more than that received by half of the Thai subjects who pass NFOOTY, which I agree is overly lax. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:37, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into New Democratic Party of Quebec, without prejudice against recreation should new sources on the subject emerge. I was going to suggest examining French-language media to see if there is more substantive coverage of Fortin there - and there are a few articles such as this profile on Radio-Canada ICI[28], this HuffPo article[29] and this article in Le Soleil[30] but I also see the French Wikipedia doesn't have an article of Fortin - if he's not notable enough for them it's hard to see how he'd fit the notability bar here. Sowny (talk) 23:41, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, without prejudice against creation of a redirect to the party afterward. There was once a time when we just routinely handed leaders of minor unrepresented political parties an automatic notability freebie for being political party leaders, regardless of their sourceability or lack thereof, but that's been deprecated for quite a while now. The test that such a leader has to pass today require much more reliable source coverage about his work in the leadership than this is showing, and just being able to offer one or two sources demonstrating the technical fact that he was selected as leader is not enough all by itself.

Huh? WP:WAF is a writing guideline. Unless there is a GNG or copyright issue, it has nothing to do with deletion, or whether or not something is kept.

Keep The topic has received adequate attention in sources such as Tintin: Hergé and His Creation and The Metamorphoses of Tintin, Or, Tintin for Adults and Tintin: The Complete Companion.

Keep As a kid I grow up reading Tin Tin books and in fact it was my first ever book to read other than school books, so I may be a little biased, but I also know a lot about this subject.

I see an assertion, not a refutation. All I see is a plot summary. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:07, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, possibly redirect to List of The Adventures of Tintin locations. All content is pure plot and the cited sources don't go beyond it, despite assertions to the contrary, no quote has been provided that shows existence of a non-plot summary analysis, nor does the article contain a shred of a reception/analysis/etc. PS. The French article has a small seciton about 'sources of inspirastion' fr:Khemed#Sources_d'inspirations_d'Hergé but I don't think it is enough, through if translated that would could be merged to the entry about this place in the linked list. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:07, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
keep I don't see how the book linked by Toughpigs could be called a plot summary per se. It is used as an example for international conflict resolution. Not all pages are available (at least to me) but it looks like it provides enough about the situation for the author to explain how his ideas would apply. The rest of the sources seem okay, but that one puts it over the WP:N bar for me. Hobit (talk) 23:31, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's certainly a fine source for the main article or maybe an article on like the "World or politics of Tintin," but it adds nothing to the topic of the fictional country in terms of real world commentary. It's just an analysis of the fictional context with no emphasis on any of the countries. TTN (talk) 23:53, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect. Fails WP:N. The commentary quoted above is about the Tintin books and their (fictional and real) politics, which are notable, not about the fictional location as such, which is not. Khemet is Hergé's pastiche of a stereotypical Arab emirate. How this culture is portrayed in Tintin is a matter of encyclopedic interest, but is best covered in context in the articles about the books and the series. What we have here is entirely in-universe description of the setting, i.e. fancruft fit only for fan wikis, but not Wikipedia (see MOS:FICTIONAL). Sandstein 09:40, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
~~Weak delete~~ Merge and redirect and comment This info is fairly thin, but there are possibilities to beef up the context. For example, in Land of Black Gold#Third version: 1971, it turns out that this location was originally meant to be British Mandate for Palestine, but was changed at the request of British publishers. Perhaps this is covered in more detail in one of the Herge biographies or Tintin compendiums - I don't have access to the source used in the Black Gold article for that info. Also, there's nothing about how scholars and biographers interpret Herge's depiction of this fictitious country and its residents in the face of his other thinly veiled biases. Lastly, there's nothing about the role the country plays in the plot of the two books it appears in. Additional info in those areas might send this into weak keep territory, but right now it's a ~~weak delete~~ merge and redirect to List of The Adventures of Tintin locations.

Redirect to List of The Adventures of Tintin locations - I pretty much agree with Sandstein's analysis of the article and the proposed sources. However, as a valid target exists, I would think a Redirect might make more sense here than a straight deletion. If someone wanted to add any potential sourced information to that target article, that's fine, but as the current information in the article is purely in-universe plot summaries, most of which is not sourced to reliable, secondary sources, there is really nothing that would merit a Merge.

I have a read of Wikipedia:Notability (sports). While it detailed criteria for both players and managers in many sports, it left out tennis coaches. Cindy Dock fails the player criteria in Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Tennis, how about as a coach? The question I want to raise is, how successful a player has to be for his/her coach to qualify? There is no guideline on it. Lovewhatyoudo (talk) 23:47, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Would a Grand Slam quarterfinal or above do it? If that's the case, Cindy Dock is not a lone case. Günter Bresnik, coach of Dominic Thiem; Carl Chang (tennis), coach of Michael Chang; Sven Groeneveld, coach of Maria Sharapova, etc. By the way, I don't think this AfD is supposed to deal with a guideline-wise broad conversation like this. Is there a better place? Lovewhatyoudo (talk) 23:47, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

From the Alex de Minaur article it appears thst Dock was his coach until he was 9, while the others you have mentioned have been coaches of top professional players during their times as top professional players. Also, the place to discuss possible notability guidelines for tennis coaches are at WT:TENNIS and WT:NSPORTS Iffy★Chat -- 09:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep She played in an international professional tennis competition. Which should be enough to pass NSPORTS. Although I'm not a fan of keeping badly sourced articles either and if I had my way NSPORTS wouldn't allow for them, the guidelines are the guidelines. They should be stricter though, but this isn't the place to litigate it. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:59, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NTENNIS already has guidelines on which type of tournaments require participation, and which ones require winning the tournament to pass the guideline. She never won any of the $25k events she played, she lost in the 1st round of the only $50k event she played, and failed to qualify for the only WTA event she played. She doesn't meet the guidelines, which is why we're here. Iffy★Chat -- 09:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: NTennis speaks of Singles and Doubles, and a $25,000 ITF Women's tournament. She made it to ITF Women's Circuit $50,000-category in Thessalonki, Greece, so qualifies. As to the above comment, NSPORTS is hopless, all you need to do is play one First Class Cricket match and you qualify.

Delete - She meats no Tennis Project Guidelines or NTENNIS Guidelines at all. You have to remember that tennis has many levels, just like baseball. Tennis has the WTA Tour level (which is everything you see on tv). And just like major league baseball, just playing any event you are notable. You are also notable if you play at the Olympics or Federation Cup (also the major leagues). Then you have the ITF level minor league, today $50,000+ tournaments but when she played it was $25,000+ tournaments. Less than those amounts are the minor-minor leagues... professional but lots of kids playing for $100. To be notable in the minor league a player must "win" the event. That's a pretty low threshold and she didn't do it in singles or doubles. She was a on match and out type player in the minor and minor-minor leagues. Not notable for anything tennis related however I can't speak to her general notability. Sometimes a person becomes notable just for spilling a cup of coffee.

Delete. The current sources in the article are either typical corporate announcements, PR, or articles about a different subject, GoCar, whose notability is not inherited by ICR. Some additional references to ICR are out there in the news, as a commenter in the previous deletion discussion raised, but these are all trivial mentions of ICR within an article on a different subject, or reporting on typical corporate activities like annual performance - not substantial enough to meet WP:CORPDEPTH. The least trivial of these, which was provided in the previous deletion discussion, is Thrifty owners agree to bail out rival ICR - Sunday Times, The (London, England) - Sunday, May 16, 2010, which perhaps suggests a bit of notability but certainly not enough to meet the GNG.
