This is another really bizarre GNIS case, but this time I don't think we can blame the compilers. A 1946 aerial shows the problem plainly: the construction of the internment camp wiped out everything here, not just the area covered by the present park. In particular, the area where the label sits in the topos is covered by a complex of barracks-style buildings. The topos do not go back this far, but what they do show has no correspondence with the aerials to speak of, though the style of the maps shows that they were updated some time after the war. The park service website is no help that I can readily find, and the camp completely dominates searching, so that while I can find it being called the "Hunt camp", I've been unable to get any info about what was here before. I'm somewhat reluctant to redirect this to the camp article, and "unincorporated rural community" is yet another euphemism for "we don't know what was here, but there's nothing there now."

The one reference doesn't come anywhere near to showing notability in Wikipedia's terms. (For convenience, here is a Google translation of the text of the one source cited: Mio Saeki releases DVD "BEAUTIFUL LOVE". The first DVD of the omnibus drama program "Beauty-H (heroine)", in which the idol of the season appears as a heroine, was released and a commemorative event was held at Asobit Game City. Mio Saeki, who sings the theme song of the popular anime "Mahoroba" and the insert song of "School Rumble", was selected as the first song this time. The DVD "BEAUTIFUL LOVE" is a work that you can enjoy playing in various situations and "Puru Puru Body" by Mr. Saeki who is active as a singer.) My searches also failed to produce any evidence of notability. JBW (talk) 20:22, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Can find nothing reliable under either "Mio Saeki" or "佐伯 美愛". Under the rules for musicians she has received no coverage for any of her releases and they are only visible in the usual streaming and retail sites, plus a few IMDb-like directories of songs that were used in anime. Under the rules for other types of celebrities, her work as a bikini model seems pretty minor. I hope she's settled into a nice private life by now. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:36, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A very sad story about an up-and-coming singer who died of leukemia at the age of 28. That being said, also a failure of WP:NMUSIC and WP:SIGCOV. A WP:BEFORE search of both "Alicia Lemke" and "Alice and the Glass Lake" found two local newspaper articles (The Capital Times and Isthmus, two pieces of WP:ROUTINE coverage (the BrooklynVegan premiere of her album and the Billboard premiere of a music video), and a fun fact about Eminem sampling her vocals (repeated here).

  • Delete A person who died but never hit it big. Agree it doesn't meet the criteria above. Oaktree b (talk) 18:18, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I know I will be biased because I created the article, but I think she is notable. One of her claims to fame was that she was the vocals in "Trip the Light," which was the background music in the 2012 YouTube video "Where the Hell is Matt? (2012)". Considering we have articles on Where the Hell is Matt? and Matt Harding himself, I think it helps with notability and relevancy. I could try to find other sources as well, if that would help. I'll admit that, due to lack of secondary sources, the article may forever remain a stub, but I still believe it should remain. ~Junedude433(talk) 18:21, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment That might count for WP:NMUSIC under item no. 10. But the key thing would be if it were possible to identify any work of hers that has charted. Furius (talk) 09:19, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep, possibly move to different title - All of her music was released under the name Alice and the Glass Lake, and that musical act may have enough coverage under WP:SIGCOV for a basic stub article. I think the Billboard and Genius articles are a little more substantial than stated in the nomination, she got a couple of robust album reviews like this [3], and she opened for Fleetwood Mac as stated in the local newspaper articles. But note that my vote is "weak" and I won't argue with anyone who wants more evidence of notability. Meanwhile, the article makes the mistake of trying to construct a personal biography of Ms. Lemke when it would work better as a band history under the band's name. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:10, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I have included more information about her and the appearances of her works, namely that Kiesza wrote a song in her memory after Lemke's death, a song of Lemke's appeared in the television serials Awkward., Billions, and Station 19, and two of her songs appeared in the 2017 movie Suck It Up. I hope this does a better job at establishing notability. ~Junedude433(talk) 15:06, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I appreciate you taking the time to find more sources, however I just wanted to note that IMDb is not considered a reliable source on Wikipedia, because it contains user-generated content that isn't always fact-checked (see WP:IMDB). Kncny11 (shoot) 16:12, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • I'm not really sure what else to cite though. I went ahead and actually watched the specific episode of Awkward. just to see, and sure enough, it was undoubtedly one of Lemke's songs. However, I couldn't find any specific source to actually cite to show it. Obviously, a link to a video someone uploaded on dailymotion probably isn't the best source either. ~Junedude433(talk) 17:39, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Has received minimal, but sufficient, coverage in mainstream sources. The fact that this coverage did not occur until after her death is irrelevant; she is notable now, and that is what matters. Mlb96 (talk) 03:33, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to Alice and the Glass Lake. Ultimately the coverage on the artist herself is too slim to pass WP:NMUSIC, but I think the reviews of the musical act do pass WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 13:35, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Christianity in Nepal. Several participants definitely believe this organization should be notable, and it does seem plausible that this type of organization would be, but they had difficulty bringing forward the independent, reliable sources offering significant coverage to show this. Among the majority who did not express support for keeping the article, there was a division between deleting and redirecting, but the later trend of the discussion was for redirect, so that is how I am closing.

  • Delete as does not meet notability and no significant coverage was found in my search. I had previously prodded the article. Here is my prod statement: It is proposed that this article be deleted because of the following concern: "Non-notable religious organization. Created by serial unreferenced stub creator. BEFORE completed; best findings = a few listings in Google books confirming it exists, but that isn't enough coverage. Please add good sources if you deprod or the article will go to AfD. Thank you." DiamondRemley39 (talk) 19:46, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
But they have to be in existence. And where are they? I haven't read anything about membership in one organization that makes another organization notable. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 13:31, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: there are several sources in Google Books. There are some that are snippet view that can't really be added to the article, but appear to give significant coverage.[4] But as mentioned above, the sources do not have to be accessible, they only have to exist. StAnselm (talk) 17:16, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The snippet view of the source you name [1] shows that the organization is covered on one page of a book contributed articles. Indeed, it gets one weak sentence. I cannot find the article ("Inclusion, Christianity, and the Nepali State" by Mahendra Bhattarai) as a standalone online, and it may never have been published elsewhere. My entire snipped view is: "The National Council of Churches of Nepal NCCN is said to be [emphasis mine] championing the cause of human rights, freedom of faith, harmony among different religions, a stringent selection and review of foreign aid, contextualizing one's faith to the 'cultural' environment and the right to register and be recognized as a Christian organization. The National Churches..." It starts talking about an organization called the "National Churches." The work was published by a non-governmental organization called "South Asia Partnership--Nepal." Is "said to be"? The article in this book has no actual information on the organization. This coverage is insignificant and thus does not help notability question at all.

  • Keep -- There is enough available on-line to confirm that it exists. If it does it should be notable. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:30, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
What indicates it "should be notable"? Why would we assume an organization with no significant coverage is notable? DiamondRemley39 (talk) 21:46, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Peterkingiron: it exits does not mean it passes WP:Notabilty. The depth of the coverage by source should be considered. Address, mission, vision of the organization available online are just trivial mention as in these sources (These source are not reliable as well) : [5] [6]. ~ Yeti Dai (talk) 09:27, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In some cases I'd be all about that, but this "article" has no sourcing and provides no information, so I see merging as negatively affecting the quality of that article. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 11:22, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Christianity in Nepal. As a national organisation, it likely has some form of noteworthiness, even if it is not notable per our policies. Sources exist, ex. [7], although I'm not sure that one is independent, or the mention here, which indicates this might warrant some form of an indication on the relevant target page. The redirect should be kept in either case per WP:ATD and as a logical search term. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 00:28, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe these references as moist have publicly denied its relation to cristianity time and again. Yes, you may be doing this as per your faith. I request you to be secular not a defender of Christianity. Secularism doesn't mean Christianity. We Nepalese are very well known on these topic. I request speedy Deletion else adding reference verified by a national daily of Nepal which works on Nepalese interest with proof.110.44.121.41 (talk) 18:51, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with the IP editor that these do not provide significant coverage. There's a bit of "I like it" evidence in some of the "keeps" above. Goldsztajn at least provides some sources, so let's examine those:
  1. Has one sentence that cites NCCN. What are the specifics of that citation? Footnote says: "K. B. Rokaya, PowerPoint presentation, copy provided to author, October 10, 2007." Not independent. I would question reliability as well. Furthermore, it's not significant coverage of the organization. It just shows the secretary has estimated the number of Christians in Nepal. Nope. Not significant.
  2. The blog of "Global Ministries," which is a joint venture of the UCC and Disciples of Christ. They describe National Council of Churches of Nepal as: "a new partner church of Global Ministries." So it fails as an independent source. Most significant in the blog post statement is "After the cease fire, the NCCN played a major role in bringing all faith groups into the process of “building a new Nepal.”" Do we have a reliable source for this? The blog of a partner church, with no byline, is not a promising source.
  3. Same secretary quoted. Not about the organization. Not significant.
  4. Page 93 has some information about it, including its mission. Not significant.
Passing mentions linked in AfD aren't adding to the notability discussion. Regarding "AfD is not cleanup" and "sources exist" arguments above: Those are arguments I've seen with the weakest keep arguments and weakest "sourcing" for years. When I want an article kept and I stand behind my vote, I typically add relevant information to the article. I'll add what very little of value is here, because the keep voters haven't. Then we can at least remove some tags.
I ask the "keepers" to reflect and consider what the article contributes to Wikipedia/the world. Right now, it's nothing. If decent sourcing that proves notability is found in the future, the article can be recreated. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 15:53, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It isn't "the body", though. It is "a body." It is the country's chapter of a large organization that is made up of some, but not all, Christian denominations. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 19:44, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete or Redirect to Christianity in Nepal. The independent coverage is just not sufficient for a standalone article.

DVD Talk is a reliable source, bluray.com has not been assessed as far as I know, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:21, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete Though the cast are notable, this has no major coverage outside of routine tv listings, and no major reviews. Not sure about Blue-ray.com, though DVD Talk might be reliable I do not think it is enough for this article on its own. Only other source I could find was a passing mention at The Hollywood Reporter on the announcement of the film, but I do not think that is enough. Anonymous 7481 (talk) 17:58, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I'd have to say a definite no on the reliability of Blu-ray.com, which is clearly an online video store whose reviews are no more notability-making than the user comments on an Amazon product or an IMDb page — whereas DVD Talk would probably be acceptable as one source in a mix of solid sources, but isn't strong enough to get a film over the notability bar all by itself if it's all we can find. And otherwise, all I'm getting is TV listings, a glancing acknowledgement of this film's existence in coverage of a completely different film Jason Bourque tried to make after this one, and purely coincidental text matches in articles that were actually about the Roland Emmerich film 2012. Nothing helpful, in other words. Bearcat (talk) 13:03, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. This is a keep from me, but only as I've seen the film and I think it's a low budget classic. There are listings on well known UK sites like RadioTimes.com and plenty of reviews on Thrillist and well known B-Movie sites, but I think this is a case of region-specifics. I think it's more well known in the UK. Asangersgrant (talk) 2219, 15 June 2021 (BST)
    • A listing on a database like RadioTimes does not contribute to significant coverage of the topic. I would be interested in seeing the reviews from Thrillist and others if you could list them. BOVINEBOY2008 22:39, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep. The film has an entry in this German language reference work: Hans Messias, Horst Peter Koll, ed. (2012). Lexikon des internationalen Films - Filmjahr 2011. Schüren Verlag. It also has an entry in Clive Davies (2015). Spinegrinder: The Movies Most Critics Won’t Write About. Headpress. It's enough to pass WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 20:17, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'm not confident the first source constitutes as significant coverage. It seems like it purely lists films that were released on Blu-Ray, basically a reference source and not actual coverage. The second is interesting! BOVINEBOY2008 10:51, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I can understand that point of view. However, I think its inclusion within an academic lexicon of films shows a certain degree of significance. Granted it's a source that lends itself more to including this film in a list as opposed to a stand alone article. However, the other source is a review; so in balance I think we could build an article with these two sources and those cited above.4meter4 (talk) 14:03, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The three Daily Journal articles cited are substantial. The guideline says that the notability requirement for schools and universities is WP:ORG or WP:GNG, and for-profit educational institutions are required to satisfy WP:ORG as commercial organizations. Grace Christian's status as a private school is NOT the same as being "for profit". It is a religious non-profit, and it clearly meets GNG. Plus, I really like Bearian's standards (above), which Grace Christian Academy also meets. Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 19:59, 7 July 021 (UTC)
But it's not a Catholic school and according to @Extraordinary Writ: most non-Catholic schools aren't notable...So, really, it should be deleted on that alone. Or should Extraordinary Writ's opinions only be followed when they result in articles being kept, but be tossed out when they don't? Also, I love how you've repeatedly given me crap for the whole private/profit thing not being guideline based, but then your willing to go with some random person's personal notability standards that have zero to do with the guidelines. Way to be consistent. Things like that are exactly why I told @Extraordinary Writ: it's a complete waste of time and utterly worthless for people like to make personal comments about other users in your votes, because you don't even care about or follow the things you give other crap about. It's nothing but massive projection. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:54, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to point out where I've attacked and demeaned Bearian. Let alone you or Extraordinary Writ. Also, from what I can tell out of the four of us I'm the only that is making guideline based arguements. There's nothing guideline based about keeping an article based on a personal essay. Not that I'm the one commenting about guidelines not being followed. You are and only to me. Nice try though. That's where the projection comes in. Me supposedly not following the guidelines bad, Bearian not following them, not a peep out of you except approval. That's just a fact.

Sorry you’re not reading that right, according to the UK and Chile gazetteers it’s rising to 3 m above sea level; the “below the water rock” is another feature lying miles away. And it’s more than a trivial listing of name and coordinates. As your own reference demonstrates Sinbad Rock is part of a sailing directives narrative attesting to its significance in the course of navigation. It also appears in the US, UK, Chile and SCAR Antarctic gazetteers with details of the history of its surveying, charting and naming. Apcbg (talk) 07:19, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm still at delete here, even if it is 9 foot tall and above water. I wouldn't characterize any of the sources I've seen as anything further than "it exists, it's 3 m tall, and it's at coordinates". When it comes down to it, a lot of the rocks seem to be about the natural equivalent of a U.S. National Geodetic Survey survey disk - it's a minor feature at a known site that provides some directional/survey help, but about which nothing significant has never been written and probably never will be written.

The feature should pass WP:GEOLAND as it has been covered by multiple geo related sources [11] [12] [13] [14] with information “beyond statistics and coordinates” (the sources include name origins). Apcbg (talk) 12:27, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This is the same basic information and mere map labels just published in multiple places, none of which is significant coverage beyond basic statistics that could expand the article.

  • Keep per WP:5P1 and WP:SIGCOV per the sources above demonstrating coverage in multiple reference works, including Antarctica: An Encyclopedia which I added to the article. Our mission statement per the first pillar is to do the work of an encyclopedia, including specialized encyclopedias. When a topic has an entry in a published academic encyclopedia, it automatically passes GNG because of the very first pillar at Wikipedia:Five pillars. @ Reywas92 After having commented on several of these nominations, I would strongly urge you to take a step back and look at the big picture in terms of wikipedia's goals and objectives. WP:Five Pillars is the bedrock of all policy, and dismissing published academic encyclopedias as trivial supporting evidence at an AFD discussion seems like you have forgotten what wikipedia is trying to achieve; namely being an encyclopedia.4meter4 (talk) 13:19, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Wrong. Both WP:GNG and WP:GEOLAND4 expect a level of substantive coverage that these sources do not provide. Existence with a name with a mere mention that it was "charted" isn't the basis for an article about a small rock. Even in a published book, a couple lines do not equate an article. Reywas92Talk 21:28, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:5P1 trumps GEOLAND and GNG per WP:Fundamentals. If it's in a published encyclopedia it stays. Period.4meter4 (talk) 01:48, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong. It has never been our policy to throw away our notability guidelines so that anything merely barely mentioned in an outside encyclopedia is mandated to have its own article here. "combines many features of general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers" does not mean any item that any such published work mentions without details is immune from discussion. The Pokemon Encyclopedia is a specialized encyclopedia covered by 5P1, but that does not mandate we have individual articles about each Pokemon. Reywas92Talk 05:33, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think comparing a serious academic encyclopedia on the continent of Antarctica to an encyclopedia of "fancruft" on a fictional universe is a bit disingenuous on your part. Further, your understanding of policy is flawed. Traditionally WP:5P1 is invoked at AFD when a topic is brought up that is covered in an academic encyclopedia on the real world, specialized or otherwise. Historically such arguments have won consistently; mainly because the authors and editors of a published encyclopedia are typically experts within that academic field and are more qualified to judge notability for encyclopedic inclusion in a particular content area than lay editors at wikipedia. In other words, we trust that the entries in an academic encyclopedia are in fact worthy of inclusion in wikipedia because experts have included it in their published encyclopedia. The fact that multiple reference works have duplicate information is a testament to their reliability and not to to a lack of significance. The fact that the subject has an actual named entry in a published referenced encyclopedia as well as other publications is significant. Not every entry needs to be large. Many encyclopedias cover topics in a single short paragraph. That doesn't make the topic not notable. On the contrary, inclusion in published reference materials as a bolded named topic with its own section is significant coverage, no matter the size. Again, if other encyclopedias cover a topic we should too. The fact that we lack entries on certain topics from specialized encyclopedias points to places where we are deficient and need to expand of our coverage, not to where our coverage should be limited.4meter4 (talk) 15:52, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have a copy of Encyclopedia of California Place Names. It has tens of thousands of entries, most just a few short sentences similar to this gazetteer. Someone mass-created several thousand articles on populated places from this book, but we have had to cull and delete many hundreds of them because they are not in fact notable (and populated places tend to be more notable than tiny rocks and hills and whatnot). This book was compiled by experts based on many historical and geographical references that are highly reliable. But you are nuts if you think anything needs its own article merely because there are two non-descriptive sentences about it in such a comprehensive gazetteer. You know damn well that WP:GNG includes "significant coverage" as a criterion for notability, not that anything with a "bolded named topic" in a book is automatically notable and cannot be deleted or mentioned in another article instead of its own. BS. Reywas92Talk 21:02, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I do think it would be possible to house the content of this page within another larger article where we can place a suitable redirect (potentially something like Rock formations of King George Island (South Shetland Islands) . However, at the moment there is no article currently in existence which makes a good target for merge/redirect. As such, keeping the article is the best option available per my reasoning above.4meter4 (talk) 21:14, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus to delete the article. What there is a consensus for is to create an overarching list article for this and similar articles, and to merge & redirect the content. If and when someone gets around to creating that article, I would respectfully suggest that this and other, similar discussions can be used as evidence of a community consensus potentially existing, at which point some bold merge & redirects could occur.

  • Keep per WP:5P1 and WP:SIGCOV. The subject clearly passes WP:SIGCOV as demonstrated in the multiple sources above. More importantly, the subject has an entry in Antarctica: An Encyclopedia.

    Which source is significant coverage???? There are hardly "multiple" sources when they all just duplicate the same note of existence. Your last statement is wrong when that gazetteer entry merely briefly mentions its location. There are plenty of specialized encyclopedias for which we do not have individual articles for every entry and 5P does not mandate that. Reywas92Talk 21:34, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Your understanding of policy is flawed. Traditionally WP:5P1 is invoked at AFD when a topic is brought up that is covered in an encyclopedia, specialized or otherwise. Historically such arguments have won consistently. The fact that multiple reference works have duplicate information is a testament to their reliability and not to to a lack of significance. The fact that the subject has an actual named entry in a published referenced encyclopedia as well as other publications is significant. Not every entry needs to be large. Many encyclopedias cover topics in a single short paragraph. That doesn't make the topic not notable. On the contrary, inclusion in published reference materials as a bolded named topic with its own section is significant coverage, no matter the size. Again, if other encyclopedias cover a topic we should too. The fact that we lack entries on certain topics from specialized encyclopedias points to places where we are deficient and need to expand of our coverage, not to where our coverage should be limited.4meter4 (talk) 15:35, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I created this article for a number of reasons and believe the subject does meet WP:GNG. #1. Subject has been personally quoted by The New York Times, Politico, HuffPost, and Fox News. This means the journalists reached out to the subject to request a quote from him to include in their articles. This indicates the subject is reputable in the particular topics, often biotech and US politics. #2. 5 MSM media outlets indicate him as the CEO of YukoSocial, a "social media engine for US Politicians." If he works with US elected officials, it gives credibility to the notion of reputability. #3. He is verified on his social media platforms. This indicates the subject has passed the notability requirements of social media companies. Yes, the article may need clean up, but no it should not be deleted.

@JalenPhotos2, The first source is re-echoing the subject of the article and fails to meet WP:INDEPTH and WP:SIGCOV isn’t met, the second and the third are laughable as both sources do not reference the subject of our discussion and he is merely mentioned in passing hence WP:SIGCOV is again not met. More concerning is, why have you yet not disclosed your COI with the subject of your article as required? Why wouldn’t you disclose your COI with the subject of the article or do you not know how to declare a COI? See WP:COI for assistance. I am logging a second warning on your TP. If I have to warn you again to disclose a COI I am reporting you to ANI, for WP:NOTHERE purposes where I’d ensure an indefinite block is evoked on you for violating our TOU. Furthermore WP:ADMASQ falls under WP:SPAM which constitutes what Wikipedia is WP:NOT. Celestina007 (talk) 22:11, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Celestina007, You first nominated my article for deletion. Then you posted on my talk page asking if I was doing paid editing work, and I responded that I have never been paid directly or indirectly to make any edits, whatsoever. You then demanded I add a paid tag to my profile, when this would be inaccurate. You are now claiming I have a COI and I wrote an article masquerading as an advertisement, and then threatened an indefinite block. This harassment is not okay! Perhaps I am not understanding your line of reasoning, but what is the basis for these hostile communications/allegations? Please respond on my talk page. JalenPhotos2 (talk) 22:45, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JalenPhotos2, I have asked you five times what the connection is between you and the subject of your article is and five times you have been evasive about responding to that. Your comments imply that you aren’t guilty of anything, fine, so could you please explain how the image on the article is your own work yet you haven’t disclose a COI? How any why is that? Celestina007 (talk) 22:57, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Celestina007, easily explained and posted on my talk page in response to your question. JalenPhotos2 (talk) 22:59, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JalenPhotos2, this explanation is improbable as it is as shady as they come and yes even if I were to believe you, that appears to be COI, the photo was taken upclose. Furthermore a WP:BEFORE shows the subject of the article is blatantly non notable. I’m going ahead to log in a third warning on your tp. Celestina007 (talk) 23:07, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Celestina007, We had a team of 3 photographers working the event. I was interested in learning more about the attendees as many have successes in business, and I run a small business. It is very probable, because its the truth. Really not okay that you're logging a 3rd warning. You've been nothing but hostile, instead of guiding and helping. JalenPhotos2 (talk) 23:12, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JalenPhotos2, no! you took the photo upclose and your excuse are negligible at best. Asides that why did you create a promotional article for s non notable individual? Do you trouble comprehending WP:GNG if yes, then submitting via AFC should be the best course of action since you aren’t experienced or are having troubles understanding how GNG works. Celestina007 (talk) 23:20, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Celestina007, It is not okay that you are making an allegation like that and then deciding it's the "truth", when it is not. It is not a promotional article, I tried my best to follow guidelines and believed the subject is notable. I still feel very strongly that he is notable and should be included in Wikipedia. Next time I will use AFC to avoid these toxic interactions/bullying. JalenPhotos2 (talk) 23:36, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JalenPhotos2 Lucky enough for both of us I have AFC pseudo right, so if you attempt to create another WP:ADMASQ via AFC, I would be waiting for you and when I do I’m taking you to WP:COIN or even worse, ANI. Furthermore if(emphasis on if)you are evading a block now might just be a good time to cease and desist from such doltish behavior. Celestina007 (talk) 00:05, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Looking through the sources, nearly all of them are only quoting him, which does not meet the "significant coverage" requirement of WP:GNG. While it is good on him that he is CEO of a political organization, that doesn't give notability under GNG unless reliable sources provide significant coverage regarding that. Being verified on social media also doesn't give notability under GNG, it just means you're popular enough on that particular social media site. Also I would like to note that source 10, the only source that has significant coverage, allows you to buy an interview and decide what's written which makes it non-independent and thus unusable in terms of notability. Jumpytoo Talk 00:03, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Per JalenPhotos2. The sources in the article (except for IMDB) seem reliable, including the ones indicated by JalenPhotos2. Though the article needs a little clean-up, it's good enough to pass WP:GNG. As for the issue regarding WP:COI, the nominator's accusation against JalenPhotos2 is baseless. He has no relation to the subject at all. Working hard to look for sources for a certain subject does not mean he is related to the latter. Therefore, there is no conflict of interest involved whatsoever. ASTIG😎 (ICE TICE CUBE) 10:00, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment — I agree with your assessment of WP:GNG. "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the entire source material. JalenPhotos2 (talk) 06:03, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fails WP:SIGCOV. The sources are reliable but not significant coverage of the subject. Mere quotes of the subject do not constitute in depth coverage. Further interviews lack the independence necessary to pass GNG. This is not even close to meeting our notability criteria.4meter4 (talk) 12:22, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@4meter4 I would also implore you to examine two further sources from local news and Reuters News. Subjects comments are the reason both articles where created, with the former having the subject be the main topic of the entire source material.

  • Comment — @4meter4 Very much appreciate your analysis and opinions in regards to interpretation of policy. Although, I would strongly disagree with your assertions based on a number of factors.

Two, based on what I mentioned above, the subject does not need to always be the main topic of the source material, so long as its more than a trivial mention. When the subjects work is the reason the article is written or he is being quoted by the journalist to be included in the piece, that is more than a "trivial" mention. Being that there are a significant amount of quoted materials from large news organizations based on the subjects profession in business, this creates an assumption that a subject merits its own article because it is contradictory to 'what Wikipedia is not', particularly the rule that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Thirdly, I think your analysis does not accurately factor in Presumed criteria as per WP:SIGCOV. I do appreciate the time you took to analyze and create the table, but I stress to others that it is still an opinion and individual interpretation of policy. Curious to hear others thoughts. JalenPhotos2 (talk) 22:48, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
JalenPhotos2, and yet you are arguing for his notability based on his quotes which are all political commentary and have nothing to do with his role as a CEO of YukoSocial. You can't have it both way. Further, several of the sources in the article call him a "twitter commentator" when quoting him. Also, I fail to see how WP:INDISCRIMINATE applies in this case. That's a policy for how we treat statistics, large collections of data, etc. However, to quote that policy "To provide encyclopedic value, data should be put in context with explanations referenced to independent sources. As explained in § Encyclopedic content above, merely being true, or even verifiable, does not automatically make something suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia." Ultimately, that applies here. These isolated quotes lack significant analysis, and by stringing them together in an article without any additional sources where the main subject is the primary subject, we are essentially building an article the is an WP:Original synthesis. That's why this article is a clear delete. 4meter4 (talk) 22:58, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The sources in the article are reliable. I agree the quotes in significant outlets like The NY Times merit the subject have its own article.

  • Delete: This is quite the discussion and I somehow got roped into reading it. After reviewing this all though, I am of the opinion that he fails to meet notability guidelines. I generally agree with other people's reasonings on why this is to be deleted. It seems like he's trying to be notable and it's having some effect, but it does not cross the threshold of WP:GNG or WP:BIO. Lots of very many brief mentions count for something, but not very much on its own and isn't enough. --Tautomers(T C) 21:36, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is the second AfD proposed for this page, the last AfD (done on 16 January 2019) had no consensus and no prejudice against speedy renomination per low participation: WP:Articles for deletion/Harrison Street Real Estate. Since that time little has changed about the article, the main change has been removal of some fluff and puffery. There have been no new inclusions of sources. See diff. Of some parallel relevancy, an AfD has been opened (by me) yesterday on one of the co-founders of this organization: WP:Articles for deletion/Christopher N. Merrill

Edit: A note regarding Ccm1042 the creator of the article, whom very likely is an WP:SPA, which is readily evident in their contribution history, and has a history of Puffing the article, though later recanting that and aiming for more neutrality. --Tautomers(T C) 23:32, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This article does not quite pass WP:GNG and also seems to fail WP:ORG/WP:CORP. While the organization does appear in the news several times regarding its activities, these alone do not count as WP:SIGCOV. Further, I was not able to find any major independent news articles profiling the company to notify its significance. In the 2.5 years since it's first AfD little if anything substantive has changed regarding its notability. In the first AfD there was a single vote to keep and a discussion regarding the size of the investment firm (in the billions) as grounds to keep it. However, I didn't see anything referring to that dividing line in WP:ORG and thus feel it's worth a re-analysis at least. If there is a documented litmus test for it please share below and take it into account when voting and discussing.

  • Clearly the notability of the book is entangled with that of the author, for whom the article was recently deleted through the appropriate process. I would restore that previously deleted article to draft, merge this article into it (and delete from mainspace), and let it gestate there in case additional coverage can be found or develops. BD2412 T 20:12, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Notability of any work will be entangled with notability of the creator of the work. Nevertheless, there are notable books by non-notable authors and non-notable books by notable authors.

XOR'easter I have access. Phillips and Kara write about her doctoral dissertation, but not the book. They are fundamentally different publications, and so it really can't be considered significant coverage of the book.4meter4 (talk) 20:23, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Fails WP:NBOOK and WP:SIGCOV. The publications by Anastasia Kamanos, Julia Molinari and Evelyn Lamb are about her doctoral thesis and not the book. They are fundamentally different publications, and notability is not inherited. The Philip Ording publication is a one sentence name drop and has mo mention of the book. The article by Amber Dance also makes no mention of the book. The Springer Nature Switzerland source is the publisher and seller of the book and is not an independent source. The two journal articles by Piper Harron and the University of Toronto bio by Piper Harron are also not independent as she is the author of the book. The only significant source is the review from MAA Focus. On its own, it is not enough to meet the multiple reviews requirement of criteria one of NBOOK, and none of the sources provide any substantiation for any of the four other criteria at NBOOK. Likewise 1 quality source is not enough to meet WP:GNG.4meter4 (talk) 20:21, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The book and the thesis are essentially indivisible. According to the review published in MAA Focus "The wise people of Birkhäuser ... will be publishing Piper's thesis, in its entirety, as one of their volumes." That is, the book is the thesis and the thesis is the book. pburka (talk) 20:26, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree, because the best reviews of the work as a dissertation are in context to creative writing in dissertation format as opposed to being a text for mathematics. There are key differences in publishing format which matter in the way the text is being discussed. I am not convinced that blurring the lines between essentially two different publications is appropriate.4meter4 (talk) 20:48, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Meets WP:BOOKCRIT; introducing a distinction between the book and the dissertation is splitting a hair that none of our sources split, and which would be at odds with how mathematical publishing works in general. Publishing a thesis as a book produces a book-version-of-the-thesis, not a wholly separate entity. At most, the distinction is between two editions of the same text, and nothing in our guidelines for wiki-notability of books indicate that all the sources have to pertain to the same edition. XOR'easter (talk) 20:29, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I fundamentally disagree with that assessment of academic publishing, as I actually have personal experience in that area. For one, dissertations go through a local faculty panel process of review, where the panel usually knows the author personally. Books are put through a much more thorough and professional degree of editorial oversight and scrutiny where reviewers are completely independent of the author. Further, typically dissertations get transformed to some extent when they move into book form;; either through additions of new material or whittling down of extraneous material more appropriate for a dissertation than a book. Rarely, do dissertations get published as they are. Ultimately, it's too far of a leap to claim transference of coverage of the dissertation to coverage of the book. Lastly, the best review of the dissertation is specifically using it as a way to advocate for more creative writing in future doctoral dissertation writing. A clear distinction is being made here in publishing format in the cited sources.4meter4 (talk) 20:35, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Editions can be "transformed" by the addition and/or removal of material, too. In the absence of sources drawing a distinction, we shouldn't do so either. Indeed, the best source we've got (MAA Focus) tells us to identify the two. XOR'easter (talk) 00:34, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Again, I disagree. I fundamentally think taking sources reviewing the dissertation in the context of its impact on doctoral dissertation writing, and merging it with another source reviewing the later book as a mathematics book is veering too closely into WP:Original synthesis. This wouldn't be such a problem if we had just one more quality source on the book itself.4meter4 (talk) 00:53, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It is clear that the thesis meets WP:BKCRIT(1), with in-depth discussion in several RS independent of the author. The argument that a PhD thesis and a book that share the same author and the same title, and that are described as a single work in reviews of the book, are completely different works from the point of view of notability is just silly.

(Note that the Ording source is not a review, and I don't think it belongs in the article; the Lamb and Salerno sources certainly are reviews sufficient for WP:BOOKCRIT; the Molinari and Kamanos sources, while not per se reviews, I do find to contribute to notability.)

  • Delete Books are clearly different than dissertations. If we do not have enough about the book itself to show that the article is notable, we should not have the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:27, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Unusually, it seems like the dissertation version meets NBOOK even though the book version may not. (Not able atm to search thoroughly for a second book review). It strikes me as extremely rare for a dissertation to even be read by anybody beyond the supervisory committee, so having any published sources about it is impressive; the range of coverage is also enough for notability. Why not write the article about the notable diss and then mention it was also published as a book? ~ L 🌸 (talk) 09:35, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just throwing my two cents in - my personal recommendation here would be to create a page about the author, Piper Harron, and then have a section devoted to the thesis and book. This way it covers a wider span of information. Just based on a very short glimpse of the sourcing it looks like they're discussing her as much as her work itself. Part of this is also because I don't really like having an "about the author" section in an article, as it just feels too much like a publisher page. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:39, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • That would also help to give a landing page to other work she puts out, as many academics will put out work that would warrant a mention on their article (if they have one) but might not justify its own article. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:40, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ah, I see that the page for her was deleted. I still think that if this is notable, then it would be best to have an author page than a page about the single work (so to speak). ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:45, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • We just had an AfD determining that the author is not notable but that her dissertation might be: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Piper Harron. This article was created as a response to that outcome. So I think changing back to having an article about the author is a non-option. Having a page about someone who has a single notable work usually falls under WP:BIO1E. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:46, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, the sourcing here is clearly enough to pass the GNG. I wouldn't go as far as ReaderofthePack but the current "About the author" section is too short and misplaced, it should be near the top (e.g. "Context") and give a bit more detail from some of the sources. Clearly if that material is in the deleted bio article then a merge from the recovered article would be sensible. Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:30, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I reviewed this article for DYK and one of the questions I asked myself was whether it’s about a book, a thesis, or both. In the end, I concluded that it’s both and when you look at it that way, sourcing is adequate. Schwede66 19:33, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: it seems very pedantic/anti-common sense to me that we would consider coverage of the dissertation and book to be unrelated. With the two together, GNG is met; that this level of coverage for a PhD is unusual makes it more notable, not less. It looks like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Piper Harron had the right outcome, but we're assessing some different sources with a different lens here. (I've not had much number theory education, but Harron has certainly captured what the inside of a mathematician's head looks like better than anything I've ever seen.) — Bilorv (talk) 20:01, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I participated in the previous deletion discussion where it was determined that the author failed WP:NPROF. That's where I first heard of Harron, and I created the current page as I believe that her thesis (which was also published as a book) is notable as it has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works (as demonstrated in the article). As noted above, no sources distinguish between the contents of the thesis and the book, and even if they did the thesis would be notable on its own. I intentionally kept the "About the author" section minimal, as I did not want it to appear that I was trying to recreate the deleted biography, but if there is a consensus to expand that section I wouldn't object. That this page, too, would be nominated for deletion came as no surprise—Harron's message clearly upsets some people—and grumbles about the "legitimacy" of her scholarship are, frankly, amusing, since she herself writes that she "doesn't do math the 'right way'". pburka (talk) 23:58, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I am very confused. So the album Choerry charted at either #9 or #13 (nice discrepancy, article writers) in South Korea, which satisfies criterion #2 of WP:NMUSIC, "has had a single or album on any country's national music chart." But apparently it's not actually her album, it's her group's album which just so happens to be named after her? But the only two songs on it are a solo by her and a duet featuring her, so whose album really is it? I don't get it. Mlb96 (talk) 21:39, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have been involved in some confusion over the various members of Loona, including Choerry in this discussion. There was a gimmick in 2016-17 when all 12 members of the group were featured on their own "single albums" with one or two songs each. See Loona discography#Single albums. To my knowledge, those are all considered to be Loona releases, including the one by Choerry, and the success of those releases is credited to the group. I think the Wikipedia community has generally decided to cut back the individual articles for each of the 12 group members and their self-titled "albums" and talk about everything at the group's article. See also the discussion at Draft:Chuu (singer). ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:33, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Mlb96: For clarification, the album debuted at #13 on Gaon back in 2017. It re-entered in late February 2020 along with a bunch of Loona-related albums at #14 then peaked at #9 the following week. Just seems like someone forgot to cross sources between the artist's page and the standalone, but I've corrected it for now Toyota Impreza (talk) 19:24, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Loona. See my comment above. Like her groupmates, Choerry's individual achievements can be described at the group article. I recommend the same for ViVi (singer) if anyone chooses to address her article in this forum too. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:43, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I don't feel the notability of Loona members except Chuu now. Unlike other Loona members including Choerry, Chuu's the only individual YouTuber, who has 530, 000 subscribers, from Loona. However, two Loona members HeeJin and GoWon are created as draft articles. Should HeeJin and GoWon draft articles be also deleted? --Hatto0467 (talk) 12:28, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If the HeeJin and GoWon articles reach the next step of the draft process, and are reviewed for possible "promotion" from draft space to main space, I suspect that they will fail just like Chuu. Those could possibly be nominated for deletion at this time, over at the Miscellany for Deletion process. But in all cases, reliable information about the individual members could be used to enhance the group's article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:04, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Loona, I agree in all cases, reliable information about the individual members could be used to enhance the group's article. I am not sure what information is appropriate to merge. Maybe a birthday/elementary school table for the twelve members? --Bejnar (talk) 21:32, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Delete - This guy seems pretty close to the line. He's got some direct coverage in the Florida Times Union. He also has indirect coverage in the Brunswick News and Variety magazine. He also seems to have directed the notable film Noora. I'm not sure if there are special notability rules for directors, but I don't think this guys meets WP:GNG. NickCT (talk) 11:45, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Delete. I found that only one independent reliable source, the Florida Times-Union, covered[24][25] this guy significantly. None of the other sources in the article give independent reliable significant coverage and I was unable to find other sources that do, so I find that the article fails WP:GNG. There is an applicable SNG: WP:DIRECTOR. I don't think that has been met as there is no evidence of a new or original concept being invented (criteria 2), and I don't see evidence of him being regarded as important with no evidence of him being cited (criteria 1). His movies are likely significant, for instance, see Susan (film) and The Debt (2014 film) and the awards they have one. In my opinion, these awards make at least some of his movies significant. However, in order to satisfy the third criterion in that SNG the movies must also have been the primary subject of "multiple independent periodical articles or reviews" and I didn't find any evidence of that. Finally, his works aren't a significant monument, probably have not been a substantial part of an exhibition, have not won significant critical attention as far as I am aware (unless those movie festivals count), and aren't in the collections of museums (criteria 4). I don't think he meets the GNG or the applicable SNG. Danre98(talk^contribs) 16:41, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Résumé-like WP:BLP of a filmmaker and musician, not making any notability claim "inherent" enough to withstand the considerable problems with the article as written. Firstly, this was created by a virtual WP:SPA whose edit history has been focused almost exclusively on this article with only very occasional contributions on any other topic, so there's a high risk of conflict of interest editing here. Secondly, it consists very disproportionately of bulletpointed résumé sections, exhaustively listing everything he did all the way down to early "technical coordinator" credits and unsourced books and albums. Thirdly, while there's a very long contextless pile of references listed in the references section, very few of them are actually being used to footnote content, and many of them come from sources (e.g. limited circulation trade publications or organizational newsletters) that are not easily located in order to repair that problem by determining what statements they actually support -- and even the ones I was able to retrieve (Winnipeg Free Press, Cinema Canada, Playback) were virtually all glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage that wasn't about him to any non-trivial degree. In other words, it's not necessarily WP:GNG-building coverage, but just an exhaustive stack of every time Stratychuk or his company have been mentioned in a published source, which is not how you demonstrate or bolster notability. Obviously no prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write and source it properly, but nothing in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to be written and sourced considerably better than this.

  • Delete agree with nominator. Removed extensive sections of unsourced material but not all of it. There's not much left after the purge. Maybe there is notability buried in the former list of uncited references but I think it's unlikely. If a WP:GNG worthy article can be written it will probably need a complete refresh.

Does not meet WP:GNG. The only independent source is an Xtra Magazine review of their book. They were employed by The Globe and Mail.

  • Keep. The article's claim that she wrote for The Globe and Mail is actually not verifiable — on a ProQuest search to see if there were other sources that this could be salvaged with, I did not get any hits where Cathi Bond was the bylined author of the piece, the way I would have if she'd actually been the bylined writer of any Globe and Mail content. And even her own LinkedIn résumé (not a source for use as footnoting, but still helpful in determining what to look for sources for) doesn't claim that she's ever worked for the G&M either. So that claim actually has to be removed from the article, and thus doesn't invalidate the Zoe Whittall piece as unable to contribute notability points. And while I didn't find as much coverage about Cathi Bond as a subject as I would like to see in a genuinely good article, I am able to add enough to tip the scales. Bearcat (talk) 17:03, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete agree that there is no proof that she worked for Globe and Mail, but two short articles - one of which is a review of her book- doesn't makeWP:GNG. I did a search and I am also not seeing any additional sources.

We do not have a rule that only online sources count toward notability while offline sources don't. Bearcat (talk) 18:32, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Bearcat: it looks like you recently added those sources. Are they on newspapers.com or something? Do they have decent coverage of Cathi Bond or her book? Considering the G&M source is actually independent I would agree that the subject is probably notable, but if these aditional sources have at least 100 words then I think the article clearly meets WP:GNG.TipsyElephant (talk) 19:10, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or merge with book. The book unambiguously passes WP:NBOOK so if Bond herself is not considered notable, the existing material should be moved to a new article on the book as a “background” section. Since notability is not inherited, that might be the most strictly accurate way to do it. But especially with Bearcat’s finds, I think there’s enough out there for GNG. And I dislike the move option because there’s less scope for growth and improvement of the narrower book article, so I prefer to keep the bio. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 19:26, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm re-adding the above because it looks like it got removed in an edit conflict. I've just gone through my own library to find a little more coverage of Bond. The two I added are fairly brief references, but refer to her as a longstanding and prominent figure in Canadian broadcasting. All together I the coverage supports a pass of GNG, and I suspect additional coverage exists in print. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 20:00, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Rynor's 2006 "Podcasters reflect on a revolution in listening" piece includes 168 words on The Sniffer, Bond, and Young. I really like this quote from Bond, though I don't think it's very encyclopedic: "'Podcasting is about doing every single thing the CBC won't let me do. "Rein it in. Rein it in." I got so sick of hearing that,' she says." All of my and Bearcat's sources are in ProQuest. I read Bearcat's and they're similar to what I found, a couple sentences in a fairly brief news article, but since they pop up consistently from 1999 to 2013, increasingly refer to Bond herself as a well-known figure, and sometimes go over 100 words I am now very confident that this is a pass of GNG. Just found a mention in an announcement of rabble.ca for example that says it features "some well-known Canadian broadcasters and artists including broadcasters Nora Young and Cathi Bond." And a very funny 2005 review of a few CBC podcasts-- apparently the hosts were on strike from the CBC? -- which pans The Sniffer. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 20:28, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article about a film, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NFILM.

  • Weak keep The French and Portuguese versions have more references. There also appears to be information in the Spanish Wikipedia that could establish notability, including his openning of a bullfighting school in San Luis Potosí and a remarkable career of over a thousand and five hundred bullfights. However, references are evidently badly needed. --NoonIcarus (talk) 15:27, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Spam article; the 'references' are actually just links to self-published lyric websites or, in most cases, links to download his songs! No news sources or any content from reliable websites found when searching his name in Persian or English. He exists on Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music etc. but there's no actual indication of notability nor does he have a significant enough following for us to essentially ignore our notability standards.

  • comment while I could not find any reviews on JSTOR, there are high citation rates on GS including a paper that has 328 citations and a single author article with >100 citations. For the humanities that seems a lot to me and his books seem to be cited 50-100 times even though I did not find reviews, so clearly there is a documented influence on the field, but maybe this is a high citation field within the humanities. Overall, I am not sure if it amounts to what would be needed in WP:NPROF#1 but when I doubt I would lean to keep. Also in the article he is mentioned as a "Director" at the Hudson_Institute but that title does not seem to mean much, in the article of the institute he is listed as "fellow" which is also what the institutes website seems to indicate.--hroest 16:01, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete. Looks WP:TOOSOON for WP:NPROF -- the highly cited paper is also highly coauthored, and a single paper with 100 citations is pretty thin. WP:NAUTHOR is plausible, and I will revisit if anyone else finds reviews (but I didn't). No sign of other notability. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:25, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - is a senior scholar at the Hudson Institute enough to pass PROF? Bearian (talk) 00:31, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Bearian, I don't think we should in any case think of any think tank title as meeting WP:NPROF C5. I would take the senior scholar role as being roughly equivalent to a professor role at a major university. But since no title is required to meet WP:NPROF C1, it doesn't matter that much. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 08:21, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep. hroest points out that the author is highly cited for the humanities and I agree. Russ points out that "senior scholar" is (in this case) roughly equivalent to professor at a major university, and I agree with that. I do think Director at a think thank is enough for C5, though hroest seems to suggest that this person is not a director(?). Bottom line is "when in doubt, keep" (which hroest also said). Dr. Universe (talk) 08:08, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I strongly disagree that being a scholar within a think tank is equivalent to being a professor in a university. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 13:27, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Snooganssnoogans, 4meter4, although I was the one that suggested the equivalence, I definitely agree that no position in a think tank meets WP:NPROF C5 (as I said in my prior comment). Indeed, C5 specifically requires being tenured at the full professor level. (4meter's point about biases and agendas is also especially well-taken here.) As the NPROF guideline specifically says that a subject's "primary job does not need to be academic" so long as "they are known for their academic achievements", I think it's otherwise mostly a moot point, except that we might be more cautious about citation numbers for works arising from think tanks (due to potential for walled gardens). To be clear, I see absolutely no sign of an NPROF pass for this subject. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 17:45, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Fails WP:NPROF, WP:NAUTHOR and most importantly WP: SIGCOV. All of the in depth sources are too closely connected to the subject, and therefore building an article based in quality RS is not really possible. With no independent reviews on his publications, no independent biographical sources, etc. it’s a clear delete for me. Further, think tanks often produce publications with clear biases and political agendas, and lack the integrity and oversight that happens in academic research, so I fundamentally have a problem with applying NPROF to anyone employed by a think tank without significant independent coverage.4meter4 (talk) 06:27, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article about an online streaming platform, not reliably sourced as passing WP:NMEDIA. As usual, things like this are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, but must be the subject of reliably sourced third-party analysis of their significance -- but this has been tagged as completely unsourced since 2014 without ever having had a single reference added. Note that it was originally created in 2012 as a redirect to a terrestrial FM radio station that formerly used this as its on-air brand name, before being hijacked to this other topic -- so I wouldn't necessarily object to restoring the original redirect, but I'm not certain that it would be useful as the station hasn't been branded this way since 2010 so it's incredibly unlikely that anybody would actually be looking for it at this title anymore.

This is certainly some odd cruft. Why this organization's random corporate policy could conceivably be considered deserving of its own article eludes me; what's more, the title is hardly an implausible search term, meaning that this could only ever serve to confuse readers expecting more general information, as exemplified by Hligtenb's talk page comment. Sources are a press release and a PDF of some terms and conditions, neither one of which justify this in any way.

Despite its name, this, and the many similar articles, is not an encyclopedia article (there are occasional exceptions such as The Troubles in Derry). It is not even correctly named, it really should be called List of people killed in Whitehead, County Antrim during the Troubles. But even if renamed it would not solve the problems with this article. Creating lists of non-notable people that died during a conflict is not encyclopedic, the articles only serve as memorials. It is not even helpful to split articles about the Troubles in this way, as deaths that occurred in different towns are often related to each other. If anyone believes it is possible to create an article detailing how the town of Whitehead was affected by the Troubles (in the same way as the Derry article linked above) they are welcome to try, but this is not a good starting point.

This article is an unreferenced WP:OR (tagged as such since 2007 when this was created). Worse, when I tried to rescue it by adding some citations I came to the conclusion the topic is not notable. (Note: don't confuse this with zero waste, which is). "Zero waste agriculture" is barely mentioned in GScholar/Books. GS has only a single English-language conference paper about this. GBooks open with a SPS "book" copying from Wikipedia, and then the term is used in passing in few other works. I am afraid there is nothing to rescue here, the term is ORish and any use of it outside Wikipedia seems to be the case of lowest denominator citogenesis.

    • Chalst, Well, I did say that the term is "barely mentioned". There are a few, but I am also concerned this may be the fact of low-quality scholarship taking the term invented on Wikipedia... Note that the work you cite doesn't explain the term, nor does it cite it. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:07, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • Piotrus - I'm conflicted. The journal article doesn't define the article, but rather it attributes it to the Thai 'Alternative Energy Development Plan'. I've not been able to find an AEDP definition of zero-waste agriculture, so I'm not sure you are not right about it being citogenesis. If the AEDP is referencing the same idea documented in this article, I think we should keep; I'm strongly against citogenesis, so I'd rather we document the AEDP and any relevant Indian activity at Zero waste if that has happened. — Charles Stewart (talk) 20:15, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

      The article notes: "Once at Harvard, in the fall of 2005, Meijie figured out what she wanted to do. She would try to make liberal education’s ideal of well-rounded self-fulfillment “more real in China.” She plunged into conceiving a summer exchange program run by and for students. Meijie named it the Harvard Summit for Young Leaders in China, or Hsylc — pronounced “H-silk,” evoking the historic trading route." The article further notes, "As for the HSYLC students’ plans for the future, Meijie’s summit meeting had not triggered a stampede to apply to American colleges (where all but the wealthy must hope for full or generous scholarships). Interest in Harvard certainly was high, yet at the same time Hsylc sent a very different message that worked against reflexive Chinese competitive fervor."

      The article discusses Hsylyc (acronym for Harvard Summit for Young Leaders in China) extensively.

Christopher N. Merrill[edit]

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

I am putting this up for deletion because it deserves a fair analysis by several people and I do believe it may have grounds for deletion. My reasons are as follows:

  • 1. I was unable to find information that would pass WP:GNG or WP:BIO. There are news stories that appear when his name is searched (trying both including and excluding the N. middle initial), however in these he is mentioned in passing and the article isn't about him, instead about the company he co-founded Harrison Street Real Estate. Because of this, the information about him would better be included in that article where it is relevant, and most of it doesn't seem like it would fit in that context and thus would be better off deleted. There does seem to be more coverage of HSRE, and that page was submitted for an AfD resulted in no consensus. Considering that, this further suggests the article on Christopher N. Merrill fails notability.
  • 2. This article has been up for deletion before, as well as as draft rejection in the past. These can be seen on the article creator Ccm0142's talk page. It was PRODed a day or so ago, but I removed that on the grounds that its argument was poor and might be able to be edited. At the time I did not deeply investigate the page. I looked into the page further and felt that an AfD was warranted as it did not pass a WP:BEFORE rather well.
  • 3. I left two notes about potential paid editing as well as neutrality (see diff) on the article which were rather quickly removed and edited by Ccm1042, the article creator. The article did have its neutrality improved some and this in itself is not a problem, but I checked the user in question Ccm1042's contributions suggest WP:SPA, only working on articles surrounding Harrison Street Real Estate over the span of 12 years, which makes me question the neutrality of the editor in question and if they have an undeclared WP:COI. To be clear, this potential COI isn't grounds for deletion, but it is relevant for the discussion, particularly if it is found to pass criteria and be kept.

So this was PRODed, and I dePRODed it, and then after reflecting on it, eh I probably should have left it PRODed. Because of that, I'll take ownership of my trigger-finger and start an AfD for it. This individual seems to be a non-noteworthy individual whom fails WP:GNG, has a PhD but isn't a professor so isn't eligible for WP:PROF and seems fail WP:BIO and WP:CREATIVE as well. I did some searching and couldn't find anything notable, though that is kinda of difficult as it's a somewhat common name. I gave google scholar a look just to be safe as well and that is entirely unnoteworthy as well.

  • Delete Unfortunately, despite the effort. The subject is not not newsworthy. Temporary closure of the mainline and tube stations are not notable either so the mentions there are not worth keeping either.--DavidCane (talk) 19:56, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to the section of the main article. I'm not sure everything there is encyclopaedic but some mention of the event at that article is definitely DUE. There is nothing in this article worthwhile merging, but redirects are cheap and it is the only fire in Elephant & Castle that approaches encyclopaedic notability (it isn't notable enough for an article, but every other event that could be referred to with this name is even less notable). Thryduulf (talk) 22:42, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect - I do not think the event is notable enough to have its own article, but it is clearly a significant event in the history of Elephant & Castle railway station and as it is covered in appropriate depth there, then a redirect seems the best option, especially as Elephant & Castle fire is something someone could well search for.

This is a follow up to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Inner Party (3rd nomination). This article is in even worse shape than the now-deleted Inner Party was (shorter, less sources, etc.). It fails WP:GNG in general, and is a plot summary+OR combo in the current shape. Note that the previous AfD in 2014 was a procedural keep with recommendation to discuss merge (which never happened). The principal author, User:Renata3, commented in that AfD that "it should not be a redlink, but these are not really encyclopedic topics". As I noted in my IP nom, there is potential to write an article about the society of 1984, but there is very little (if anything) to rescue from our current article, so I don't think any merge is advisable (much, if not all, of what is in the article is uncited or raises OR concerns). To address Renata's valid red link concerns, I did a bit of cleanup in the main 1984 article and I'd recommend this section for a redirect: Nineteen_Eighty-Four#Poverty_and_inequality.

Outer Party[edit]

This is a follow up to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Inner Party (3rd nomination). Outer Party is in even worse shape than the now-deleted Inner Party was (shorter, less sources, etc.) but the PROD was declined (without any useful rationale), so here we go. For the record, my PROD here was "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) supplementary essay. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. (Note: cited academic paper here is unreliable)." In the current shape, this is a plot-summary mixed with OR, and I don't think it can be rewritten - Outer Party does not appear to have stand-alone notability; this could be a redirect to the possibly notable society of 1984 article once it is created one day. As for redirecting this now, while the section Nineteen_Eighty-Four#Oceania exists neither it, nor any other part of our current article on 1984 discuss the Outer Party in any detail (and as for merging, the ORish flavor of our current article is a major issue).

Non notable film, nothing found in a WP:BEFORE to help it pass WP:NFILM. Apparently nominated for/won some minor awards.

The same user has also created on multiple Wikipedias this article: David Muñoz López which, in my opinion, is a hoax (yeah, fourteen year old man being a politician, founder of a political party, chairman of a company etc.?). I think that both articles should be examined together. I suspect they are a part of a larger cross wiki spam campaign. Pawel Niemczuk (talk) 03:36, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • This is definitely a hoax. The topic does not verifiably exist at all outside of its own self-published "RTVIC Wiki", and neither does the "Parlamento de Sala Centra" — even the article's actual footnotes mostly led to nonexistent websites rather than reliable sources verifying the existence of either RTVIC or the Parlamento do Sala Centra. Essentially, a Spanish teenager self-declared himself the president of an imaginary micronation of Isla Cristina, and has been self-publishing his own fake content to the web about it. And for added bonus, the Spanish article that it was "translated" from has also already been deleted four times as "Promocional o conflicto de intereses" (which is pretty self-explanatory). Accordingly, I'm speedying this article, the draft version of this article and the draft version of David Muñoz López. Bearcat (talk) 14:42, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is something of a test case, as there are a number of Idaho "communities" like this one: an active post office with no town. In most cases that post office is in an isolated store; in this case, it's possible that the second building which used to be here was a store, but I haven't been able to find anything about it, or indeed anything at all about here other than that there used to be two buildings, and one of them is the post office. Now, my searching was sorely hindered by the commonness of the name and by an Ellis Creek, but still, I came up with nothing. And therefore I move on to the other problem: there's no reliable source for calling this a "community" or any kind of settlement or anything at all besides a post office, and I don't think simply having a post office in a place makes it notable, an issue we've already been through for 4th class POs. Even the notion that it's a former town is supposition with the sourcing we have. If this article is deleted, there are so far about four other similar cases, with possibly a few more to be found.

  • Keep. The USGS lists Ellis as a populated place and my 1960 World Book Encyclopedia lists Ellis as a town with a population of 10, while Davis' Encyclopedia from 1909 gives it a population of 20. WP:GEOLAND is thus satisfied: "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history." It does seem as though Ellis is abandoned, but notability is not temporary. I was able to expand the article, using serious reference works. It would be quite odd to delete the info here, while reference works like World Book and Davis' Encyclopedia have noted the community. What are we doing deleting content other encyclopedias contain? Firsfron of Ronchester 20:52, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, mainly per Firsfron. This is a reminder of why Wikipedia has a gazetteer function in the first place, since major print encyclopedias have included them long before Wikipedia was around. If Ellis is significant enough to merit inclusion in a major print encyclopedia like World Book, it seems like it's significant enough for us to cover it. As far as other coverage goes, I was able to find this article about the fate of the town's former store and cafe, along with several articles about the fish hatchery in the area, so it's not just a post office (or wasn't always, anyway).

This professor appears insufficiently noteworthy, though the little information on his wikipage appears accurate through my searching. It's also been in need of citations and has basically been uncited since 2009, which is a bit old. He fails to meet WP:PROF and WP:GNG standards rather clearly, as explained below:

Arguments for Non-notability[edit]

1. The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.

  • No, however I did get conflict results. According to scopus[1] he has an 72 publications, 573 citations, and an h-score of 13. His most cited article on google scholar has 71 citations, and around a dozen in the 30-40 range.[2] Semantic scholar[3] gives higher results with 92 publications, 1282 citations, 10 marked as influential, and an h-score of 22. Of others are aware of a different score set please share. Nevertheless, these score are insufficiently noteworthy, particularly given that biochemical and medical adjacent research trends with rather higher average values.

2.The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level.

  • No. I cannot find any faculty pages or websites dedicated to him, nor any media articles. I was able to find one thing,[4] but none of the awards listed would count. Still, I was not able to find anything and it is something that would generally be easy to come across if it existed.

3. The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).

  • No. This does not seem to be the case, I could not find any sources.

4. The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions.

  • No. His research does not seem noteworty or impactful enough to meet this, and I wasn't able to find any other sources.

5. The person has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon.

  • No. It seems like he's been on panels and groups within and outside of his universites, but none would have counted as named or distinguished unless I overlooked something; his age makes this somewhat challenging to track down.

6. The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution or major academic society.

  • No. Does not seem so, it looks like he was simply a researcher and did not have a major appointment.

7. The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity.

  • No. Does not appear to be the case and was run-of-the-mill.

8. The person has been the head or chief editor of a major, well-established academic journal in their subject area.

  • No. I was not able to find any sign of him being an editor.

Other Comments[edit]

Part of the difficult in finding information seems to be age, as he was born in 1927 from what I can find. I didn't see any obituaries on him so he may still be alive? I did find an obituary for his brother from 2010. Nevertheless, finding information on him is extremely difficult and the sources of what I can find are flimsy at best. That alone suggests he wouldn't meet WP:GNG let alone WP:PROF. However, due to his age and when most of his work occured it might simply be hard to verify. Though, based on critera 1 and his h-score it strongly suggests to me he wouldn't meet any other criteria and the absence of evidence is because it doesn't exist.

  • Delete the one thing that gave me pause was that he held the title of Burger lectuerer for a year at a university. However this does not appear to be a named chair, but just a short term honor that I do not think meets that notability prong. I did find this [28] article from the University of Virginia about Alfred Burger. It appears Alfred Burger is a very notable person. At least if we could verify a few of the claims in that article with indepdent sources, I am 100% sure that Burger would pass academic notability.The fact we seem to not have an article on him is one of the strong indications of Wikipedia being very presentist and overall having very poor coverage of notable academics.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:07, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a WP:POVFORK of Shakespeare authorship question (the title subject is listed at List of Shakespeare authorship candidates), written in an extremely WP:PROFRINGE way, based on misinterpretation of sources, poor sources and at times deliberate WP:OR. Note how there is not even a token effort to put this into context with the majority view. I doubt there's anything of value here, and if there was reason to split this from the main article, WP:TNT would very likely apply. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 12:32, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm very slow, I know. But I'd like to ask, before casting my !vote, why we are so keen to TNT this article when we are not rushing to delete similar pages? (Theories on Oxford's, Bacon's, Marlowe's and even Henry Neville's possible authorship all have articles which, quite reasonably, point out that they are deemed fringe theories within the scholarship but are acknowledged by reliable sources to be notable).* Looking at the references, there are numerous chapters, articles and entire books that appear to address the topic (so broad coverage?) ad if they've been doing so for ~90 years then that's pretty persistent coverage too. Looking at the WP:ANI discussion (which brought me here, for the record), I see it has attracted much disruption (not unexpectedly, of course, otherwise the whole shebang wouldn't be under ARBDS), and it appears to have been sorted with the application of a few forensic blocks and protections. There's also plenty wrong with the article as it stands; but since WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP, any issues of POV, WP:TEND, and the other litany of breaches of protocol contained in the nom can be addressed with a good old-fashioned re-writing. Of course, I'm open to persuasion, but right now this seems close to a baby-bathwater disconnect. ——Serial 16:46, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
* Also note: WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS has recently been re-written and may not say quite what one remembers it as saying.
  • Quick note: I don't think OTHERSTUFFEXISTS has been meaningfully rewritten recently. It was renamed, but renamed to what it actually says and has as long as I've seen it. If it was rewritten, that was prior to around Dec 2020/Jan 2021. Vaticidalprophet 04:52, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Serial Number 54129: Many of the sources are from promoters of the theory. The article also includes much OR. I'm dubious there's much of this one that could be kept in a more balanced article. The articles on Marlowe, Bacon, Oxford and so on at least include what the academic consensus is, and don't make ridiculous statements, entirely OR, such as "It is clear that John Florio is the same pen that wrote Shakespeare's dedication to the young Earl."... They look like legitimate articles covering fringe theories, like Moon landing conspiracy theories (although some more balancing could likely be done in this case). Whatever OSE has been re-written to, the general spirit is that false comparisons should be avoided. In this case, we would likely need for all of the existing article to be trimmed. There are whole OR/SYNTH sections which do not make any attempt at balancing with the scholarly consensus... RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 17:10, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • I agree it needs to be re-written; I do not see how deletion aids the WP:READER. ——Serial 17:12, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • SN, I feel you, and I'm not so sure myself. But, and here's a big but, one argument for deletion is, first of all, that the article as it stands is completely incoherent and is written by COI editors: as a Wikipedia article, it's just really bad. (OK, it has pictures, and that's always a plus.) Second, the way I read FRINGE, it can be notable (noteworthy) only if reliable sources have seriously discussed the subject--in this case the statement "Florio wrote Shakespeare". I've reported on a bit of sourcing on Talk:Florian theory of Shakespeare authorship, and there just isn't anything at all--I'm sure there's more than what I found, but if JSTOR only gives me two passing mentions that the authors don't even consider important enough to comment on (one has one tongue-in-cheek sentence, the other simply lists it as one of many), then I am not going to get my hopes up.

          What I think should be written, and much of this content (if rewritten and properly sourced, with secondary sources) can help with that, is an article called "Florionistic influences on Shakespeare" or something like that. In fact, I guess I could have moved the entire article to a new title before it was nominated and we could have had very different discussions--but perhaps the three editors would have sent a hit squad out for me. (JOKE ALERT THIS IS A JOKE I'M NOT REALLY THINKING THEY WOULD HAVE DONE THAT) Drmies (talk) 21:23, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

          • @Drmies, "Florionistic influences on Shakespeare", could very well be a decent article, if you haven't heard, there's an interesting article in The Guardian: [31]. Florio is not mentioned at Shakespeare's editors, maybe he should be. We have articles like Sources of Hamlet, but not, I think, a general "Influences on Shakespeare". Xover, maybe you should look into that. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:25, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
            • No Gråbergs Gråa Sång, I've NEVER heard that article before--it says Florio wrote Shakespeare! We should totally put that on Twitter. Drmies (talk) 11:53, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The case that this needs a stand-alone article looks dubious at best, and the content is in poor enough form that WP:TNT applies (if the topic were notable, then starting from scratch would be easier, and less likely to invite pro-fringe reverts). XOR'easter (talk) 17:00, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nominator note I've done a substantial run-through the article, removing most of the obvious OR and a significant portion of the unrelated SYNTH. Based on this, I now alter my nomination to suggest a delete (based on the same rationale) and recreate as a redirect to John Florio#Shakespeare authorship theory. There's nothing useful in the current history (unless you want a class in removing obvious OR from articles, but you don't need that). RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 20:59, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to John Florio#Shakespeare authorship theory. Redirecting sounds like a good idea. I may be very dumb today, RandomCanadian, but why does the article need first deleting and then recreating as a redirect, as opposed to the usual procedure of merely editing it to make it a redirect and preserving the history? I understand that the history is of limited value, but how is it actively harmful? Is it because the history would make it easier to un-redirect and re-article it? I believe that any redirect would be under pro-fringe attack and would need protecting, so in that sense there's no difference. Bishonen | tålk 07:13, 22 June 2021 (UTC).[reply]
  • Redirect per Bishonen. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:40, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The article is totally either (a)WP:OR or (b) fraudulent abuse of sources. I think we can manage about 4 or 5 strong refs which mention it recently en passant (or is that pissant?). The editor(s) have consistently deliberately misconstrued the sources they cite, and skewed things to make it look as though . There looks like quite a bit of text remaining after Random Canadian's deft scissorwork, and a few edits by myself, but that is still WP:OR. It is an Italian fascist theory in origin, picked up by journalist, repromoted after the war in books no one read, and only took wing with the internet's disinformational pandemic and its love of conspiracy theories. One could make a case for documenting the story's idiotic line of descent, so that Wikipedia could conserve at least a reliable presentation of the hypothesis. That could be done in a short page of two or three paragraphs. What should be avoided at all costs is restoring material to the John Florio bio where it was an immense eyesore and egregiously undue.Nishidani (talk) 12:35, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I must protest the devastation of usable sources taking place. I'm quite prepared to rework this 'thing' exactly along the lines we did with the other candidate articles, in three paragraphs, ordered chronologically, using only scholarly sources that comment on this specific theory, of which I have several. But everytime I look, I see proper sources removed, or direct links to the relevant book pages removed and reformatted so the reader can no longer access them and verify etc. I know that most, like me, find the article a motherlode of bullshit, but we have enough good sources to establish a precise reconstruction of the idea which is now mushrooming broadly on the internet. That is one of wiki's functions-Nishidani (talk) 14:20, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
RL matters permitting, I'll replace later today the text we have with a thoroughly revised, and strictly top RS based version giving the wacky notion its historical outline in 3 parts (a)Paladino (b) Post-war (c) 2000 onwards. Then we can mull giving the flick pass to the lot, or embalming something worth mummifying for the wiki museum of waxing and waning outlandish notions. Nishidani (talk) 06:22, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sounds notable from the discussion up above; given the sources that are discussed here and cited in the article, I don't understand why we'd deem it non-notable. Not having consulted those sources (beyond evaluating them), I can't agree or disagree with Nishidani's argument that the sources are badly abused at best. But if this gets deleted, it needs to be on the WP:TNT grounds suggested by the nominator. Nyttend backup (talk) 17:45, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep for now. An amount of explosive has been applied. My hope is that at some future point it can be merged with Crollalanza theory of Shakespeare authorship into a The Florios and the Shakespeare authorship question. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:14, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nominator note the WP:HEY treatment seems to have been applied. I do notice that very little of the previous text has been kept, so that seems like quite some TNT to me. In any case, the article in its current state is much better than when I nominated this so if @XOR'easter, Ritchie333, Drmies, and Bishonen: are willing to update their !votes, we can close this as "withdrawn". RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 15:21, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry, I still think the sourcing is flimsy, with the passing mentions and the self-published brochures, so I'm sticking with Redirect to John Florio#Shakespeare authorship theory. The relevant section there could perhaps be plumped up a little. Of course it seems a pity that the recent good work should go for naught, but couldn't it be applied to an article about Florio's relation to Shakespeare, or Florio as Shakespeare's editor, instead? Compare Saul Frampton's 2013 Guardian article (which was supposed to herald a forthcoming book, but I can't find that it has forthcome). Isn't an article about "the" Florian theory of Shakespeare authorship a bit of a straightjacket for the material? Nishidani? Bishonen | tålk 16:52, 24 June 2021 (UTC).[reply]
Well, Bish, if you can point out any flimsy sourcing, I'd appreciate it, since everything there passes RS as far as I understand it. The brochure stuff is what sources call it, and there is no direct quoting of the crap mill's products unless a secondary source refers to them. Florio was, and remains, a magnificent figure, and I hate to see his bio blighted or smeared by this crap in a section. We should do what we did with the attempts to load up the Shakespeare article with authorship doubts, i.e. we sequestered the lot and wrote the FA SAQ article. Containment, in short. Frampton dropped his promised work. Florio studies are flourishing, minute, complex, and perhaps it looked too daunting. Remember WP:Systemic bias. There's quite a lot of high-class balderdash circulating on the continent about this theory since Tassinari's puerile piece hit the fan, with notable thinkers and cultural identities, and even some tenured academics taking it on board, and, in response, little reaction in the Anglocentric world, despite the efforts of the French Shakespearean Society to stop the meme machine in its tracks. A sort of peripheral ticking bomb that I feel is worth disarming (finally jumping at the chance to defuse an explosive, a metaphorical reprise of what my father once did in Libya in WW2 - and then shat himself afterwards in a delayed fear reaction!). It's not on our radar, but here in Italy and France the noise effect is audible. We need articles that go into the guts of fake news, surely? Much of this will become apparent if I'm given the chance to add the second half, about the proliferation of the meme in the 2000 decades.Nishidani (talk) 17:07, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I see no reason to close this early, so the customary week is young yet. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:16, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • OK, WHO WROTE the passage starting with "Paladino subsequently expanded..."? That editor deserves a barnstar, and donuts. Drmies (talk) 16:49, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. While I'm generally sceptical of the notability of articles on the individual conspiracy theories, and this one is on the fringe of the fringe, so long as we have the others I'm disinclined to use that alone as a factor. In addition, with Nishidani's ongoing rewrite this has in effect been nuked and rewritten from scratch. What's currently there (which has further expanded since the nom offered to withdraw) leaps neatly over GNG and is an easy C-class article (it'd be eligible for GA, and not unlikely to pass, now). It's definitely too extensive for a section in the biographical article. There is future potential for merging with the closely related fringe theory centred around the father, but I see no particular reason to force that outcome now. In fact, I would sooner suggest Crollalanza theory of Shakespeare authorship be merged into this one than the other way around.
    I am also inclined to weigh Nishidani's argument above that having the article corrals the adherents to one place where they will cause relatively less disruption and can more easily be dealt with (whether that dealing entails education, gentle troutings, or thwacks upside the head with military-grade cluesticks). Trench warfare between Oxfordians, Baconians, and Florians on the same page would seem apt to cause significant collateral damage.
    PS. I've dug around the cites there. The fringe stuff is being used appropriately as acceptable primary sources (i.e. they meet WP:RS by complying with the guidelines in WP:SELFSOURCE). The sourcing is a little bit weak in places, but not because of the fringe sources, just because there is a relative paucity of high quality secondary sources that have given the subject in-depth attention. At, say, FAC, some of it wouldn't hold up (but then, even William Shakespeare took a beating at FAC!), but for anything less I think it's perfectly fine. It's "still room for improvement" stuff, not anything disqualifying. --Xover (talk) 10:01, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't care which article are considered merged into which, or if a new article is created and the two current ones are merged into that one, as long as the outcome is one Florio-SAQ article. "Florian theory..." maybe an ok name, Crollalanza will be a redirect anyway. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:53, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was draftify to Draft:Leadtools. Considering the nature of the sources, my take is that the "delete" side overall made a stronger case. Listing out the tools and software used to produce results in an academic paper is standard practice, and it sets a very low bar for notability if citation in a journal is all that is needed. Nonetheless, there were also some paper resources (Charlotte Observer) that were offered up which are probably more substantial but that cover the main product, "Leadtools", rather than the company. As such, the compromise suggestion of bringing this to draft space for further revision and focus on the main product is the outcome that fulfills the largest number of concerns.

    The article as currently written provides both for the LEAD Technologies company and the LEADTOOLS brand via LEADTOOLS, the latter being of more notability which is sustained as easier evidenced by links in books link above, noting InfoWorld 1 May 1995 for example.

But under it all I see a software brand that has sustained long term notability. I have used {{uw-coi}} directly asked Techgirl49 if she has a conflict of Interest with Lead Technologies and making her aware of Wikipedia declaration requirements if she has.

While the company has been around a long time, and the InfoWorld article brought back fond memories as I used the API in VB way back in 1995, WP:ITSOLD doesn't cut it. Per WP:PRODUCTREV, product reviews can help establish notability of a product, and InfoWorld is an independent, reliable source. It would take more though, to show that either that specific product meets WP:NPRODUCT or the company meets WP:NCORP.

You used their tools over 25 years ago so you know they are legit and there are articles in journals about them. You clearly know all the rules and maybe I don't, but I have to ask if deleting this page would improve the knowledge base in Wikipedia or deteriorate it. And I believe the answer is that it would deteriorate. Request to improve it, certainly, But delete it? I still say no. Techgirl49 (talk) 18:11, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep In order to have its own page, the company qualified as notable before now, and per Wikipedia guidelines, notability is not temporary, nor does the subject need to have ongoing coverage to still be considered notable. Plus, current market (e.g. PDF SDK, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Coil and Optical Character Recognition) research reports include the company and its product in their studies with the likes of other notable companies (e.g. Google, Microsoft, IBM), and current journal articles still reference and study the company and its product.

  • Move to "Leadtools". I do not see significant coverage of the company anywhere, but sources like this (and those compiled above by talk) indicate to me that the product is being discussed. Searching for "Leadtools" brings up a few more sources like this from SD Times; arguably still sparse but enough imo. If not move, then delete. --LordPeterII (talk) 15:46, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I agree with the move to Leadtools as mentioned above. Happy to change my vote officially if that matters. Or draft up a page if that is helpful, I am not sure how this process would work. FiddleheadLady (talk) 16:03, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to Leadtools page. I changed my vote because the toolkit is a significant part of research per articles (DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-56224-7_14; [32]; [33]) mentioned in this discussion. Heartmusic678 (talk) 17:33, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to Draft:Leadtools for now. I came here with the intent of closing this discussion, and was inclined to close as delete, discounting the !votes of low-participation editors coming into this discussion. Empirically, the 1992 Charlotte Observer piece is promising (though just local reporting at that time), and Leadtools gets decent numbers of Google Books and Google News hits, giving me the impression that this is a potentially notable topic. However, these are not in the article at this time, so I think it needs to go to draft to see if there is depth to that content. I would suggest that if moved to draft, some consensus-based process be required before restoring to mainspace. BD2412 T 01:26, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @BD2412: Thanks for that suggestion. As nominator, I would support draftification to a title about the company's main product, rather than about the company. I am unconvinced by any arguments put forward by others about the notability of the company and I think the longstanding editors that have participated in the AfD agree. The coverage that does exist, as you say, is about the product. Therefore the article would need to be re-worked in draft space to change its focus. The other reason for draftification is that there has been a long history of undisclosed paid editing on this article, right from its creation, and I believe that continues today. I believe there is a sophisticated paid sockfarm in operation here and we await the outcome of that investigation. COI is a valid reason for draftification. In the move to draft space the history, two AfDs and notes re paid editing will accompany it so extra scrutiny will be required by any AfC reviewer minded to accept the reworked article into mainspace. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 08:37, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Given that comment and my participation in this AFD I checked Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Heartmusic678 and at least note I am not mentioned there. I object draftication but accept I need to take account of any decision here. I do not accept going via AfC, while I respect their role I have my reasons, but will accept a DRV review if required. I do not have nor seek WP:AUTOCONFIRM rights so any re-entry by me has to go via NPP. I never like to TNT because any history of COI editing is made invisible, and the job of marketing is in general to dress pig rear output as juicy sausages. Instead I prefer to WP:STUBIFY and rebuild, per Rosemay Leith, though accept I may have dishonoured a genuine NEWBIE in going too far, @BD2412 may present Leith to DRV if necessary. If their is a professional sock farm in use they might have the nous to back off if it get draftified, unless their being paid by LEADTOOLS opposition. Please note the brand is LEADTOOLS (in caps) as far as I am aware. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 09:58, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't understand most of the comments above. But it sounds like there is generally support for a LEADTOOLS page or draft which is what I voted for.

Akkad is a very notable personality in the queer community of the Arab World, compared to personalities like Sarah Hegazi, who has a very distinguished page on Wikipedia, as evident by the sufficiently affixed sources. Furthermore, I don't see a clear reasoning for shady comments, AfD pages should not be used for personal attacks or to shade other members of the encyclopedia, Wikipedia is a respected area for general information, not a place to post personal biases, arguments or empty additions, as evident by the so conveniently-placed AfD article instructions at the top. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 16:50, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Therefore, these sources from local and unknown sites and social media sites! --Aliaboomar (talk) 17:43, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If you believe that major German and Arab news agencies are "local" and "unkown", then you should not really affix any news agency at all as a source next time you try writing a Wikipedia article, if you even do that. Also, please add a weighted comment next time and do not be subjective about your opinion, as this really does go against the general guideines. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 20:21, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, the Arabic Wikipedia literally removed and merged Hegazi's article with a second one, just because of her sexual orientation, and I hope this isn't the case here. Futhermore, you decide what sources are reliable or not? And so it's okay to keep people who have been referenced by DW, but not Akkad, who has also been prominently referenced by them. Cool, nice double standards. Regarding your last point, I'm not going to even mention it, because it's not appropriate to bring your jealousy or personal biases into this AfD discussion, as previously noted, so please refrain. If you want to write an article about yourself, go create a CoI (Conflice of Interest) notice on your page, and write whatever you want, but make sure to not be biased, or just wait until someone figures out you have 10k followers on social media. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 20:06, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Please further elaborate by mentioning which points this article does not meet in your opinion, because otherwise, I feel your "point" or whatever that comment means is quite invalid and insufficient, as evident by the AfD article instructions at the top. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 20:11, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Don’t compare yourself with others, you can create a page with your name for Wikipedia if you meet the conditions, Abdulrahman Akkad is a Syrian blogger and activist in the field of human rights and LGBT and has several interviews with DW (Deutsche welle) channel in Arabic and English and with the German newspaper Bild (the most famous newspaper in Germany) in addition to an interview with The Public Authority for Broadcasting in the Federal Republic of Germany (ARD) and with German Channel Two (ZDF) and two interviews with (BR) Bavarian radio and television broadcaster in German.

Notable? GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:21, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tagged for notability since 2017. There are two interwikis; the Armenian one is built on the same sources the English one uses, and on the Hungarian Wiki, the article is up to deletion as well. On the Hungarian Afd, it has been mentioned that "we know he has published a lot of books, but that is not a support for notability; also, google search hasn't returned anything useful, only bookstores and trivial mentions", well, that says a lot. Rest in peace though. Anyways, the question is: is he notable? GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:20, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The article text looks like a lot of it is machine-translated from hu wikipedia, so there might be a plausible case for WP:TNT type deletion there. OTOH, the article apparently refers to several reviews of works (and multiple reviews of multiple works would be a pass of WP:NAUTHOR). The problem is that the article doesn't actually give a source for the reviews, failing WP:V. I wasn't able to find the reviews listed in the article (or other reviews) in my search; someone who speaks more Hungarian than I do might have more success. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 23:46, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Since I am Hungarian, and the Hungarian article is up to deletion as well like I said, and almost everyone voted for deletion there, so there aren't any better sources in our language either. Machine-translated articles are a huge problem on our wiki. It looks like we are not the only one. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:42, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The debate on the Hungarian page centers around the question whether the reviews in the blurbs/forewords of the works themselves count as sources. These are signed reviews from noteworthy editors, translators, writers, etc. It is far from the truth that most people voted for deletion, there actually is a weak majority for keeping it.Dobos G.

  • Weak majority"? But anyways, the consensus on that site is not really clear. There are of course people who voted with keep, but there are delete votes too. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 13:32, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Not that it matters much, only for the sake of clarity: at this moment, there are 7 votes for keeping it and 4 for deletion.Dobos G. (talk) 10:16, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete per WP:TNT, with no prejudice against recreating with better sourcing. The most plausible case for notability is through WP:NAUTHOR, which would generally require multiple reviews of multiple works. The article does appear to have some quotations from reviews, but sourcing is extremely unclear, and it is unclear how one would go about verifying. I suspect that the subject had reviewed works in the pre-internet age, with the reviews appearing perhaps in defunct Hungarian newspapers (for example). The reviews quotations that are in the article do not look like a clear pass of WP:NAUTHOR even if they could be tracked down; meanwhile, the article is in a sufficiently poor state that I believe we'd be better off starting from scratch if reviews are tracked down later. I am not particularly influenced by the hu wiki deletion discussion, as notability criteria are surely quite different; I remind participants here that sources do not need to be in English or online (but they do need to be verifiable). I will remark that I do speak some Hungarian, though I am far from fluent. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 08:52, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    This is a source that meets all these criteria: http://artes-liberales.hu/start.php?rovat=muveszet&cikk=117. It is a report of a book presentation which took place at the headquarters of the Hungarian Writer's Union, where the publisher, a member of the Union himself, spoke about the book. The report, written by an independent third party, includes two (brief) reviews. Dobos G. (talk) 10:06, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd take that source as weakly constituting a review. (It'd be a bit stronger if it had a clearer author; I'll point out for other editors that the publication is described at [34].) Several other similar reviews (say, 4-5) would likely constitute a pass of WP:NAUTHOR. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 13:19, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • delete without prejudice. Abandoned article, therefore to draftify is noit an option, unless someone volunteers to adopt it. Lembit Staan (talk) 01:02, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
