The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was keep. Seems to be a consensus that following WP:DAB to the letter would be "unacceptably astonishing" and that the current state of this page is the one which improves the encyclopedia the most (by being the most helpful to readers).

Not a true disambiguation page per MOS:DAB. The only subject on this page that could be considered a title match is Live Performance. Steel1943 (talk) 23:31, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Radio, Television, Theatre, and Disambiguations. CAPTAIN RAJU(T) 03:12, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment It's a case where the topic with caps (the album Live Performance) is probably not primary topic for the uncapped "Live performance". Perhaps the "least worst" option would be a reduced version of this dab page, offering 2 entries: the album, and a link to Performance in an entry worded something like "A performance taking place in real time, as contrasted to a recorded performance". Slightly IAR but more helpful to the reader than other options. Or just leave it as is, pretty harmless. PamD 09:04, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • @PamD: I had originally gone into this thinking the disambiguation page would have to be deleted (or probably redirected), but with you saying this, I'm thinking this title could be replaced with a broad-concept article, maybe? Steel1943 (talk) 15:53, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This is basically a page that would be a redirect if not for having more than one possible target. I could see people typing this in, so deleting it would inconvenience people. If this was at RFD instead of AFD, I don't think anyone would !vote "delete". HotdogPi 10:59, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Although this may not meet some WP:DAB policy, deletion or redirecting to Live Performance would be unacceptably WP:ASTONISHING. Let's find a way to improve this. ~Kvng (talk) 14:18, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to fail WP:CORP and WP:N. Several refs are just to a Barnes and Noble page selling books purportedly referencing topic. Two links about the companies holdings are dead, the Wall Street Journal article is a 404 dead link, looked at the US Treasury report cited and couldn't find the mentions of this company, and other refs are Linkden pages, Manta pages, and an Avvo page.

This was deleted at AfD in 2018, and there is nothing in the article or elsewhere to suggest that the subject is more notable now. Fails WP:GNG, WP:NACADEMIC and WP:CREATIVE Edwardx (talk) 20:31, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Change vote because of arguments produced. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:08, 19 April 2022 (UTC).[reply]

Keep. Because:

  1. In 2019 she was awarded the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts Medal, an award that only one person gets per year. 1
  2. Also in 2019 she was given a lifetime achievement award from Galeries Ontario / Ontario Galleries 2
I think (but tell me if I'm wrong, I'm not sure of how important these awards are) that therefore she passes WP:ANYBIO. CT55555 (talk) 23:32, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:ANYBIO as she has "received a well-known and significant award or honor" since the last AfD. pburka (talk) 15:24, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - What has changed since the AfD in 2018 is that she received two significant awards as stated above: in 2019 she was the sole recipient of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts Medal, and a lifetime achievement award from Galeries Ontario / Ontario Galleries. She clearly meets WP:ANYBIO. The article should be retained in the encyclopedia. Netherzone (talk) 15:50, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I added information from a source via the Wikipedia Library with in-depth biographical information, and between the awards and reviews cited in the article, it appears that per WP:CREATIVE, she is regarded as an important figure and has won significant critical attention. Beccaynr (talk) 16:37, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Given the information CT55555 and Beccanyr added, I think the question we ought to ask is why we deleted a page about a notable artist in 2018. This seems like a (less prominent) case of what happened to Donna Strickland. pburka (talk) 17:11, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    On one hand, my main argument to keep is based on two 2019 awards.
    On the other, while about 19% of biographical articles on Wikipedia are about women, 41% of biographical articles nominated for deletion are about women, so something is causing editors, on average, to disproportionately nominate women's biographies for deletion. I'm not saying this nomination was a problem, the 2019 stuff wasn't in there at the time of nomination. Sources: Gender bias on Wikipedia
    If anyone find the status quo problematic, please do join us at Women in Red and/or join in by creating high quality articles about women (there are helpful lists in the project) or copy my new hobby of scanning articles for deletion for biographical articles and doing some sort of WP:BEFORE+++ kind of work, and help close the gender gap. CT55555 (talk) 17:38, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The 2018 discussion only saw three editors, one of whom was anonymous, supporting deletion, including the nominator. Nobody uncovered her 2002 Exhibition of the Year award, and, despite unclear consensus, the discussion wasn't even relisted once. pburka (talk) 19:23, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment When I nominated this on 17 April 2022, there was nothing in the article about these 2019 awards. However, if either really is "well-known and significant", why is there no mention of them in Royal Canadian Academy of Arts or Galeries Ontario / Ontario Galleries respectively? Furthermore, the only source for this medal is the organisation she is the director of. As for the lifetime achievement award, this is mentioned in a podcast interview with her - hardly a reliable source. And the comparison to Donna Strickland is a false equivalence. Edwardx (talk) 17:50, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Some examples of other places that mention her lifetime achievement award:
    1. https://galeries-ontario-galleries.ca/awards/nominees/jan-allen/
    2. https://www.queensu.ca/gazette/stories/agnes-etherington-art-centre-earns-pair-awards
    3. https://kingstonherald.com/news/19-oaag-awards-2010327598

    To answer your question, I attribute the lack of mention of the awards on the articles you mention to a lack of editors taking an interests in museums and galleries, if my time at AfD is anything to go by, there seems to be more interest in pop music and video games than galleries, but I'm deep into speculation. To try to remain more objective, there's lots of important things missing from Wikipedia, I don't think we should assume something is not important just because it doesn't exist here, also any one of us could add it in quickly right now and I don't think that would make it suddenly more important. CT55555 (talk) 18:15, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I agree with the awards found confirming she is a notable artist. Dream Focus 05:36, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. I find most convincing the Royal Canadian Art medal, although the sourcing for this is not completely independent, and I didn't find anything better. (Comment that the RCA webpage is a bit of a mess!) Hence, "weak". But the Ontario Galleries lifetime achievement is nearly at the same level (if a bit more local), and there seems to be plenty of sourcing for that award. Here is another mention of the lifetime achievement award [1]. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 07:01, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, it may have been too soon in 2018, but the awards since her retirement are significant. Pikavoom Talk 06:12, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per her winning a major award in her field. Balon Greyjoy (talk) 06:30, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, it was WP:TOOSOON when it was deleted originally. Now that the person meets WP:ANYBIO I see no reason to delete it. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:36, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Very similar to the article deleted in 2020 via PROD, if memory serves me. Still no evidence of meeting WP:NRIVALRY or WP:GNG. Wikipedia is not a statistics database and shouldn't be used for indiscriminate listings of results between all rugby nations unless there are specific sources showing why the meetings between these two particular nations are of importance; see WP:NOTSTATS. There is nothing to suggest that the 'rivalry' between Ireland and Canada in rugby is important enough for its own encyclopaedia article. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:22, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: As per NSPORT, Articles about notable games should have well-sourced prose, not merely a list of stats. --Whiteguru (talk) 05:25, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Per nom, It was likely I who PRODed the 2020 article as it failed WP:NOTSTATS AND WP:NRIVALRY. There is no significant coverage of matches between Ireland and Canada being a rivalry, they're just a selection of international tests, and so this is just a list statistics with no real significants. Could potentially be SALTed as I'm not sure a rivalry will ever develop in these matches. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 09:03, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how any of this passes WP:NPROF. All sources are primary, lots of her research is published in predatory journals. Both her books are self-published.

  • Delete per nom, noting that the article was created by an editor, User:Healthandhope who has edited on no other topic and was later updated by very-similarly-named User:Healthhopes in their only edit, suggesting possible COI or autobio. Her personal website seems to exist solely to promote her two books. Does not appear to be notable. PamD 09:21, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – not notable. A handful of citations doesn't suffice for an WP:NPROF crit. 1 pass, and none of the other NPROF criteria seem to be met. Unsurprisingly, her self-published books haven't attracted the critical attention needed to meet WP:NAUTHOR. My search found zero significant coverage in independent reliable sources, so she's not notable under the GNG/WP:BASIC either. I don't doubt that Obilade is a talented scholar, but nonetheless she doesn't seem to meet any of our notability guidelines. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 03:53, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This private airport has no evidence of notability. Most of my searches turned up an airport of the same name in Canada. Fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:NAIRPORT which states "Significant, independent and reliable sources specifically about the airport must exist" AusLondonder (talk) 14:00, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge (some info) to List of airports in New Jersey. Djflem (talk) 09:39, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Likely to meet WP:GNG. The airport has operated since 1951, and operated as a public access airport until 2006. In the period of June 1997 to June 1998, the airport had 12,000 takeoffs and landings, with facilities onsite to perform major airframe and engine repairs. This isn't a dirt strip in some farmer's field. Using Newspapers.com is of limited use in this case because the site doesn't carry any local newspapers, but still turns up other mentions in the state newspapers. The airport was the site of a fatal light plane crash in 1995, as the pilot was attempting to land. [2] [3] It was the site of another non-fatal crash in 2004 of an antique plane,[4][5][6] and an ultralight plane in 2016.[7] In another case in 1957, a man was killed at the airport by the propeller of a plane on the ground at the airport.[8][9] Using only the online sources available to me, I turned up enough mentions of the airport in a few minutes of searching to find enough to justify de-prodding the article, and subsequently voicing a keep opinion here on "likely" GNG grounds. RecycledPixels (talk) 17:49, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
None of those mentions seem to be addressing the airport specifically, rather are routine local news about incidents. I don't see those mentions as meeting the criteria at NAIRPORT: "Significant, independent and reliable sources specifically about the airport must exist."

I'm fine with FormalDude's merge/redirect suggestion. -- RoySmith (talk) 20:01, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or merge+redirect somewhere else - I split this off of grandstand before expanding it beyond a definition; based on the tags, it seems editors agreed that it did not belong there. If there's a parent concept, I'm open to merging into it, but I'm not sure what that would be. It's already a bit more than a definition, as it's summarizing various types. It's possible this could expand considerably by covering why psychologists think this happens, what the effects good and bad are, and how various forums try to prevent it to get more substantive conversations, or encourage it for other reasons. Political grandstanding does this for that type. -- Beland (talk) 16:50, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to wikt:grandstanding, which is where to find an actual dictionary definition.
As for the notability of the word "grandstanding": looking this word up on Google Scholar or the WP refs engine brings up pages and pages of... well, pages that mention the concept of grandstanding, though I doubt that few of them are actually about the word "grandstanding", raising questions of notability. (Searching for "grandstanding is" in the WP refs engine seems to give marginally better results, though still not good enough ones to assuage our notability worries fully. However, checking out the second page of search results brings up an entire book!)
Redirecting this to Political posturing or Political grandstanding would unduly emphasize the political aspects of grandstanding; ordinary people can grandstand too. (By the way, redirecting Grandstanding to Political grandstanding would make the former into an exciting double redirect, as the latter itself redirects to Political posturing.)
Duckmather (talk) 04:17, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge with Political posturing would be the best solution, because posturing and grandstanding contain significant overlap. In fact, they are practically one and the same. TH1980 (talk) 03:11, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - A WP:BEFORE search turns up no sustainable coverage, the last news piece is just he is acting as a speaker at some event, which is not notable. Per WP:ANYBIO, I don't see anything that is satisfied by him. His achievements of being on the social media team for Barack Obama and Joko Widodo are not notable. There are two sources that provide in-depth information about him, from this blog and this media. Both are interviews, and all of the claims are made by him are without verification at all, which in my opinion, failing WP:V. The first source from bisnisdavit.com also does not qualify for WP:RS.

Page primarily serves to promote self-published books given 'Chilton Designs Publishers' only lists books written by the author in its catalogue, potentially suggesting it is author-owned vanity publishing company to add faux credibility.

  • Merge/redirect to Mrs Caldicot's Cabbage War, the film adaptation of the book, per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternative to deletion. The only significant coverage about the book I could find is this 110-word review:
    1. Strange, Rosemary (April 2003). "Mrs Caldicot's Cabbage War". Nursing Older People. 15 (2): 36. doi:10.7748/nop.15.2.36.s19. Archived from the original on 2022-04-18. Retrieved 2022-04-18 – via Gale.

      The review notes: "I started to read Mrs Caldicot's Cabbage War and felt amused, surprised and then indignant. It is an extremely compelling book."

    There are a large number of reviews listed under Mrs Caldicot's Cabbage War on the author's websiteInternet Archive. But it is unclear whether these sources are about the film adaptation of the book and how many provide significant coverage about the book itself.

    Like the AfD nominator, I did not find the review sources cited in the Wikipedia article in my searches for sources so was unable to verify them. If any editor finds significant coverage in two or more reliable sources about the book, I will switch to supporting retention.

    The Apache Foundation is not an independent source when considering notability of its projects or its committers. Yes, you can use it in the article, but it doesn't count for notability. I don't think software developers generally fall within the intended scope of WP:AUTHOR, but assuming they do, not every software product can be considered a significant new concept, theory, or technique (as much as I appreciate Apache Druid). In the field of computer science, that would be something like Relational algebra, Discrete Fourier transform, or MapReduce. MarioGom (talk) 16:36, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - The page definitely needs to be written as per wikipedia standards and not in bullet point resume / newsletter format. With the way it’s written, the page doesn’t focus on what sets it apart from being just another WP:ROTM company. However, as per reference 4, the company significantly reduced the industry standard securitization process from months into a few weeks. These points needs to reflect in the article in an encyclopedic manner. So, it’s definitely not just another WP:RUNOFTHEMILL company, the page needs improvement though.
Techcrunch is WP:RS and gives good information about the company. The funding related sources also gives quite a lot of information about the company. Other sources included, are in accordance with WP:V and significant sources

  • Analysis of references
1. This from Insurance Journal is a company announcement. It says it as the bottom of the article. It is a Primary Source so cannot be used to establish notability. Also fails WP:ORGIND.
2. This from Reinsurance News is entirely based on another company announcement (says it in the article) with all information being provided by the company and their execs. Here are several more articles covering the same announcement and they're all pretty much exactly the same. No "Independent Content", they all fail WP:ORGIND
3. This from The Insurer is based entirely on an "update" provided by the company (says it in the article), has no "Independent Content", fails WP:ORGIND
4. Finally, this from Artemis is largely the exact same article as this from the Insurer, same date, same quotes, different "authors". Again, based on an "update" provided by the company, the article rely entirely on the company and/or execs for all the information. Fails WP:ORGIND.
None of those references meet our guidelines for establishing notability. HighKing++ 19:16, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is a company/organization therefore NCORP guidelines apply and not just GNG. There are particular criteria for establishing the notability of a company.
  • Unless blatantly obvious, I'm assuming all the sources are reliable WP:RS and the publishers are corporately independent from the topic organization - but there's more requirements than just "RS" for establishing notability.
  • As per WP:SIRS *each* reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - the quantity of coverage is irrelevant so long as we find a minimum of two. We need to evaluate each reference against WP:ORGIND, WP:SIGCCOV and WP:CORPDEPTH. In short WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. This is usually the criteria where most references fail. References cannot rely only on information provided by the company, quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews fail ORGIND. Whatever is left over must also meet CORPDEPTH.
None of the references meet the criteria for establishing notability of the company. Topic therefore fails WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 19:16, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An even worse quality version of what we are discussing at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/University of Cambridge in popular culture (with just three footnotes), and another article that totally misses the point of WP:IPC, WP:GNG, WP:NLIST, WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:TRIVIA. Which means what we have is yet another TVTrope-ish trivia laundry list of gems like "Clone High - includes the character of Doug Prepcourse, a trucker who says he was a Rhodes Scholar". Note that the single sentence referenced to Oxford in Fiction: an annotated bibliography does not need merging, as a), it already is mentioned in the low-quality mess at University_of_Oxford#Oxford_in_literature_and_other_media (sigh) and 2) it's unclear whether it is even related to University of Oxford, or just Oxford, the town (double sigh), so no, there's nothing to even merge this time. My BEFORE also did not suggest this is a notable topic, although I am a bit surprised about this (I thought there would be something); in either way, even if sources are found, WP:TNT applies as this would need a 100% rewrite.

  • Delete - Another poorly referenced list of largely non-notable trivia that fails WP:LISTN. The one sentence of information on the overall topic here that could be said to even be remotely reliable sourced ("By 1989, 533 novels based in Oxford had been identified and the number continues to rise.") is already included at the main University of Oxford#Oxford in literature and other media, thus leaving no reason for retention of this spinout. As a reminder, WP:ITSUSEFUL is generally not considered a valid argument for retention at AFD discussions, as well. Rorshacma (talk) 16:17, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Like the Cambridge one, this article is little more than a collection of trivia and original research. Furthermore, the article makes no attempt to provide criteria for inclusion. Instead, it simply gives a list of random works that might contain a reference to the University of Oxford. The importance of these references is not adequately described in the list. Honestly, this list is noticeably worse than the other lists in terms of sourcing. There are only three citations in the entire article. Each of these references corresponds to single sentences. Nothing else is cited. While there may be a workable topic here, this list needs to be destroyed so that something better can replace it. ―Susmuffin Talk 20:39, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WP:INVALIDBIO, WP:NOTGENEALOGY. Related to several notable people, but ultimately just a slot in a family tree. I don't recommend a redirect since the disambiguation makes this an impossible search term, and there are multiple relatives that this could be redirected to. Avilich (talk) 01:44, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

unlikely search term due to disambiguation, and no appropriate target Avilich (talk) 14:11, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
So you could literally just have nominated the redirect for deletion instead if you think its somehow harmful (despite Wikipedia:REDIRECTSARECHEAP). Intead you insist on recreating the article and making an entirely new AFD page for no reason, just like with Claudia Dicaeosyna where in the AFD you actually eventually said you thought it was ok that the redirect existed..... Also there is nothing inacurate with the search term, and tere are TWO appropriate pages to redirect it to, she is mentioned in her fathers article to to direct it there is fine, or it could be redirected to her husbands article where she is also mentioned. ★Trekker (talk) 15:03, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The prod was rejected, that is the reason. And exactly, there are multiple relatives, and thus no obvious target. Avilich (talk) 15:13, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge and redirect somewhere. I would suggest her husband Annius Vinicianus (condemned by Nero) would be a suitable target. She did nothing notable in her own right. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:56, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Articles SHOULD NOT be recreated in order to delete them! After it was redirected, this should have been nominated for deletion/discussion at redirects for discussion. If one sincerely believed that the article should be recreated the recreation could be defended but the immediate AfD proves the nominator does not hold that belief. This AfD is part of the wider disruptive behavior of the nominator in the Roman subject matter. WP:WRONGFORUM applies. I will proceed to restore the redirect. A moderator should close this discussion on a technical basis and take whatever other steps are needed because the nominator was just banned for disrupting the Roman subject matter. gidonb (talk) 16:07, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    What does WRONGFORUM say about removed PRODs? The page was not previously removed by any formal procedure, and the bold-PROD and bold-redirect were both contested, so AfD is the natural place to go. Avilich (talk) 16:13, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • information Administrator note I have restored the article while this AFD goes on. While it may seem "disruptive" to restore an article just to AFD it, I can see where the nominator is coming from - if the page is simply redirected, that leaves the door open for someone to recreate it in the future with no consensus needed. However, if the page is deleted/redirected at AFD, it requires consensus to recreate which is more enforceable. Primefac (talk) 16:19, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That being said, I do see how this AFD could have been held at a later date if the redirect was reverted by someone other than the nominator, but such is life. Primefac (talk) 16:22, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Primefac, with all due respect this is a very bad call. The user is continuously disruptive in his behavior, rewarded by you, and should not be allowed to forum shop. I ask you to restore the redirect and close a discussion that belongs at WP:RFD. gidonb (talk) 16:24, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is the WRONGFORUM to complain about past blocks of mine Avilich (talk) 13:38, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Primefac, you can also ask the assistance from an admin who is better acquainted with the history of the nominator's behavior. Note that I do not have an opinion on whether a redirect should or should not exist, only address procedural wrongs. A little support would have been constructive. gidonb (talk) 16:24, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Procedural issues aside, this fails WP:GNG, WP:BIO, and any other criterion for notability. Mere existence is not enough. This is a genealogical placeholder, nothing more, and the namespace is not a natural search for which a redirect would serve any purpose. Agricolae (talk) 18:35, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as a redirect (i.e. keep at the correct version). We have procedures and these need to be followed. No awards should be given for forum shopping and disruptive behavior. Note that I propose a procedural keep, NOT a spite keep. The nominator is invited to make their case in the relevant forum! gidonb (talk) 19:01, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: merger is almost always the right solution when an apparently non-notable person could properly be discussed somewhere else—and it doesn't matter whether all of the useful content has already been added to other relevant articles, because merger is a process by which a) the article in question is reviewed to make sure that anything helpful to readers has been copied, b) the original authors still receive credit for their work, and c) the original title becomes a redirect for anyone who might come looking for it. Yes, there are cases where nobody is likely to search for something—but those are more the exception than the rule in cases like this, where the title is a logical one for an article about a historical person; and as correctly noted above, redirects are cheap. Yes, the article could be recreated in the future—but that would be the case whether or not the title is deleted, and the new article would still be subject to review for notability. Occasionally new information emerges that would justify an article about someone previously deemed non-notable; but if that's not the case, then returning the title to a redirect with appropriate explanation or discussion on the talk page of the article/redirect and/or the talk pages of the participating editors is fine. But the bottom line is, deletion is not a substitute for merger, and redirects don't need to be deleted unless there is no probability that anyone will search for them—if they're needed for another article, someone can simply redirect them there and leave hatnotes on appropriate pages. P Aculeius (talk) 13:00, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think we need to give credit to every original author who merely restates a family tree in prose form and provides no reliable sources whatsoever. This is exactly the sort of thing that should not be merged. Avilich (talk) 14:07, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Deletion is an appropriate substitute for merger when there is nothing worth merging, and when the namespace that has been chosen for disambiguation purposes is inherently unnatural as a search term. Both appear to be the case here. Agricolae (talk) 23:14, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Nobody seems to be seriously arguing that Domitia deserves a standalone article, so the question is whether she should be redirected or deleted. As far as I can make out, there are three possible targets for a redirect which mention Domitia (her husband, her father, and her sister). None discuss her in any detail, it is far from obvious which one she ought to be expected to redirect to, and I don't think "Domitia (sister of Longina)" is a particularly plausible search term. The redirect only existed for two months, so it's not as though it is a well-established redirect that we should preserve for that reason. And the argument that this should be procedurally closed because it should have been RfDed as a redirect seems like nonsense to me; maybe it should have been RfDed, but we're here now and closing this only to take it to RfD seems like unnecessary bureaucratic timewasting. Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 21:04, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The problem is that of recidivism and maintaining a fair playfield for everyone. I have submitted deletion requests to both procedures in the past. The likelihood of requests to be approved at the AfD is much higher. We should not allow disruptive behavior to happen time after time. User was just blocked indefinitely for a similar digression in the same subject area. The fact that this bad procedure has nevertheless been able to continue is (how do I put it gently?) remarkable. Fairness for fellow editors should always come before someone's content-based position. gidonb (talk) 01:15, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    If we're talking about fairness to fellow editors, we should probably talk about the fact that Avilich wasn't sanctioned for misusing deletion processes, they were sanctioned for personalising disputes, casting aspersions, editwarring, and inability to drop the stick. Their behaviour in this AfD has been perfectly fine, and as far as I can see they have avoided doing any of the things that they were recently sanctioned for. Sanctions are not a scarlet letter or a reason to oppose an editor's actions in a completely different dispute. I agree that Avilich should probably have RfDed this rather than AfDing it, but that's in no way comparable to the actually sanctionable behaviour that they were recently at ANI for.
    As for I have submitted deletion requests to both procedures in the past. The likelihood of requests to be approved at the AfD is much higher. Your gut feeling is not useful data about this. Even if you are right that more stuff taken to AfD is deleted than stuff taken to RfD, that doesn't mean that it's because some of the stuff deleted at AfD should be kept. Personally my experience would be the opposite – RfDs are less likely to be closed as "keep" – but even assuming that you are right, there are a bunch of confounding variables (the one that springs to mind first is that RfD noms often don't argue for deletion in the first place; many discussions are held at RfD where the nominator explicitly proposes retargetting, whereas move and merge discussions are not held at AfD, even if those are possible outcomes). And even if you are right that more articles are deleted at AfD, and the effect is still measurable after controlling for confounding variables, my experience is that AfD has a much broader audience and more varied participants – which would suggest that to the extent there is a difference between the two, AfD is the one where the consensus is likely to be closer to that of the community more broadly.

  • Merge and Redirect, as correctly stated above. There is useful content here that may or may not have been added to the articles on her father, a notable general, her sister, a Roman empress, or her husband, a notable general and conspirator. The lack of citations is irrelevant—we have sources and clear indications that this is not a hoax, and nobody has argued otherwise in this discussion. If all of the contents can be found in the articles about her notable father, sister, and husband, and is there cited to the sources mentioned under this title, then the title probably should redirect to one of them—likely her sister, since that's how the title defines her: "sister of Longina". That doesn't mean that's the only way someone might search for information about her, but anybody searching for this title is more likely to be thinking in those terms. That's it—merger complete; no need to do more. If the content and sources haven't been added to the three relevant articles, do that, and then redirect this title—and merger complete. It's that easy. As for the argument that the title should be deleted outright, it doesn't seem like an implausible search target—the subject should be mentioned in at least three articles about notable persons—and I know of a fourth that ought to do so—and someone might want to know if there's anything more to learn. Redirecting it would at least indicate where some of the relevant information can be found. Plus it would preserve the page history—at least twenty different editors, some regular members of WikiProject CGR, not including those using bots, have contributed to this article since its creation fifteen years ago. Redirects are cheap, and there's no disadvantage to keeping this one, since it's not needed for any other purpose. P Aculeius (talk) 12:27, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You're covered already, there's no useful content here that doesn't exist elsewhere, and the article only cites unreliable sources anyway. If you insist on making a big deal out of some passing mentions in unreliable sources then I'll point out that neither of these sources seem to actually mention "Domitia" by name, so this can technically be classified as unverifiable/OR/hoax by your standards regardless of the likelihood that a person matching the description actually existed. If the name is not directly attested then it's unlikely someone will search for it before searching for the relatives. Avilich (talk) 13:46, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you're going to argue that Tacitus and Suetonius are unreliable sources, then you might as well nominate all our Roman history articles for deletion—even modern writers base most of their writing on what Roman historians have to say. But that's not going to happen, so perhaps you should try another argument. The claim that the article is a "hoax" or "unverifiable" can be proved or disproved by checking to see if she's mentioned by Roman historians—even in passing. If she's mentioned—whether or not by name—then this article isn't a "hoax" or "unverifiable". Although as you know well, her name could probably be inferred from the fact that her father was Gaius Domitius Corbulo, and her sister Domitia Longina. Did you check other sources that are likely to mention her? I did, and found her listed as "Domitia" in PIR—with the notation that the sources don't name her (so her name is inferred). Tacitus, Annales, xv. 28 and Cassius Dio, lxii. 23 mention that Annius Vinicianus was Corbulo's son-in-law. She's also listed as "(Domitia)" No. 92 in PW. I'm sure there are other sources—likely Settipani, since Anriz based a lot of articles on his work, which is not technically unreliable or unverifiable, even though it may be very difficult to access and review.
WP:BEFORE expects you to check the sources mentioned in the article—and look for other sources (you can be excused not checking in sources that you can't readily access or review, if they're not cited by the article)—before nominating articles for deletion. Evidently that wasn't done here; it is not appropriate to nominate articles for deletion and then demand that other editors are responsible for doing this background work, or else the article will be deleted. That's the responsibility of the nominator. And we still come down to this: this is a plausible search term for someone who should be mentioned in three or four other articles—so it should at minimum be a redirect, perhaps to Longina, perhaps to Corbulo—but in either case, not deleted. P Aculeius (talk) 16:44, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ancient authors are not reliable sources, and any articles based on their testimony alone, without backing from secondary sources, shouldn't exist. All of the sources you mention contain zero biographical details on "Domitia", and anything that can be written about her – including the name, as the sources show – is artificial and worthless from an encyclopedic standpoint. There is no reason to think anyone would feel the need to search for her to begin with (let alone that the present title is the best redirect for this): her existence will only be evident after someone reads 'son-in-law' or 'daughter' in someone's biography, and from that point onwards there will be nothing new to be searched for anyway.

Congratulations, you've just yeeted yourself out of Classics. P Aculeius (talk) 17:57, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The first paragraph content is all on Gnaeus Domitius Corbulo. The second paragraph appears to be a Wikipedian's deduction from the fact that begins the next paragraph - that Annius appears as son-in-law of Gnaeus in 63, not anything based directly on a reliable source. The third paragraph info is all on Annius Vinicianus (condemned by Nero), and the concluding paragraph has one sentence with info on Annius' page, and one that just says we don't know her death date, not the kind of information likely to be explicitly stated by Tacitus or Suetonius (the third listed source is a dead link with no indication it once hosted a WP:RS). As I see it, the only unique information in the whole article is of dubious provenance. Perhaps you could specify exactly which 'useful context' from a reliable source would be lost to Wikipedia were the article deleted rather than merged. Agricolae (talk) 22:18, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody mentioned the phrase "useful context"—only "useful content", which is essentially that this woman was the daughter of Corbulo, wife of Annius, and sister of Longina. And before someone brings up "inherited notability", that's not what this is about—the fact that Corbulo, Annius, and Longina were all connected via this woman is relevant to all of their articles, even if the lack of any other details mean that there's no need for an article about her on Wikipedia. It doesn't have to be "unique" content, in the sense of not appearing anywhere else on Wikipedia—that's not what merger is about. The merger process is about determining whether all of the useful, verifiable content has been added or moved to appropriate articles, doing so if it hasn't been done, and then converting the present article into a redirect to the most appropriate of them based on what anyone looking for it is likely to be searching for. If you find nothing to add to the other relevant articles because everything useful there is to say about the subject there, then you can skip to the last step—but of course by then you've already done the other steps.
Merger differs from deletion, because in deletion, you don't care whether any of the content can be found anywhere else—it just gets deleted, along with the title, nobody checks to see whether the subject is mentioned anywhere else, and nobody searching for this subject will arrive at any of the articles that might contain the information they're searching for—there won't even be any hint that it ever existed, or that a couple of dozen editors created, modified, and curated its contents for fifteen years—which is not usually a desirable result. The fact that the article existed for that long without being deleted suggests that people might search for it, as does the fact that multiple reference works have entries for this subject; and that fact alone suggests that we ought to have something, if only a redirect to an article that does contain the information. Merger is the process by which a subject that is better treated as part of another article is converted into a redirect to an appropriate place, where the subject is discussed; deletion is the process by which a subject about which nothing encyclopedic can be said is erased from the encyclopedia without a trace. This topic is clearly the former, not the latter, which is why if we follow Wikipedia policy, it must be merged, not deleted. P Aculeius (talk) 03:00, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the misread, but you have basically answered my question - you cannot identify any useful content that merits merging. The main reasons for merging are to preserve information and preserve attribution. When the valid information is already on the target page(s), there is nothing to be merged and there is nothing that needs its attribution maintained. Among the explicitly listed valid reasons for deletion is "Articles whose subjects fail to meet the relevant notability guideline". While merging appears among a list of alternatives, there is no stipulation on that page of what must happen. And the whole 'the page has been here for a long time so people must be searching for this namespace' argument doesn't approximate reality. It has only existed under this namespace for 16 months, and in that time only one editor made substantive changes, immediately after editing her father's page so presumably led there by a blue link. No evidence anyone is searching for "Domitia (sister of Longina)". Agricolae (talk) 17:35, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You seem to misunderstand the purposes and procedures of merging—for purposes of determining whether the correct procedure is merger or deletion, it is irrelevant whether useful content already exists on other pages—that only becomes relevant once the merger process has begun. The contents of this page are useful—in fact essential—for other articles to be complete. An article on Corbulo that does not mention that one of his daughters was the wife of Annius would be incomplete, as would one about Annius that does not mention that he married a daughter of Corbulo, and was thus the brother-in-law of Domitian; and one about Longina would probably also be remiss if it did not mention her sister, the wife of Annius. You are correct that the article has only been under this title for a limited amount of time—but the number of editors who made changes after that move is irrelevant; this article has existed under three separate titles for fifteen years, and has some twenty distinct editors in that amount of time, and the entire page history under all titles will be lost if the article is deleted. You would also break the redirects from the old titles—that could of course be fixed, but experienced editors concluded that this was the best title, which strongly suggests that it is the most likely one to be searched for. Your reasoning amounts to, "this person is not important, therefore nobody will ever search for information about her, and thus it is imperative that there not be any redirect on Wikipedia—better that if someone goes searching for information, that they find no clue that an article ever existed." Why that would be better than being redirected to Corbulo or Annius or Longina, I have no idea. P Aculeius (talk) 21:19, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, I don't misunderstand, I just don't agree - the content is so essential that it is already on the relevant pages, making a merge just for the sake of being able to say there was a merge but not actually merging anything completely superfluous. Also, I never said nobody would ever search for information about her - an absurd thing to say, which is why I didn't say it. The same applies to the supposed description of what my 'reasoning amounts to'. Maybe you would be better served by sticking with describing your own position, rather than misdescribing mine. As to "experienced editors concluded that this was the best title, which strongly suggests that it is the most likely one to be searched for", this is a less-than-accurate rendering: one single editor unilaterally, without prior discussion, renamed the page 16 months ago and nobody else noticed or cared enough to comment one way or the other. That is not the same as consensus, plus the dictates of disambiguation often result in what would be exceedingly unlikely search terms, so it is unsound to suppose 'best title' equates to 'most likely search term'. (The most common search would likely be just 'Domitia' without further description, which will lead straight to the name disambiguation page and on to the information desired, wherever it happens to be.) Finally, the repeated decrial that "the entire page history under all titles will be lost if the article is deleted" - if nothing on the page is worthy of preservation (being already found elsewhere) then there is no useful purpose to preserving the record of the (unfortunate, but that's Wikipedia for you) wasted effort - the page histories are there to serve their pages, not the other way around.

It evolved over its history with Ferguson creating a cast of characters using puppets (from hand puppets to an animatronic skeleton, and a pantomime horse); incorporating equipment failures; and using the show's normally behind-the-scenes staff on camera. Key episodes have begun to be documented in the full list with information about the show's evolution, and which is not included in IMDB, but drawn from the news and the 1300 episodes in the Youtube archive.
The show was covered in the news for notable monologues or performances about once every four to six months. It again appeared in the news when Ferguson's 2007 Britney Spears monologue again went viral early this year.

First part in a series of articles created by user User:Artemis Andromeda about Polish "states":

Most of these are created by copying content from already existing articles on Polish history (e.g. History of Poland during the Piast dynasty). Such a division is factually incorrect; the time periods correspond to the periods in which the ruler of Poland wore the royal crown. In principle, this did not cause any administrative changes that would justify the creation of a separate article. The fact that Bolesław II the Bold crowned himself in 1076 and was dethroned three years later is not a sufficient basis to divide Polish history into three sub-periods. Besides, already from the 11th century the Polish state was referred to in sources as "regnum Poloniae", even if none of the rulers was strong enough to crown himself. Unnecessary multiplication of entities and duplication of content that is already well described on Wikipedia. Marcelus (talk) 23:24, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I am the one who created all this articles, and I would like to add a few things to this discussion. Firstly, let me open with the statement, that I acknowledge my mistake in separating the entity from years 960-1138 into a separate auricles, as they indeed were a single state, with different titles of its monarch. However, everything since 1138, were completely different entities with drastically different political systems from one another. Let's start with Duchy of Poland (1138-1227). In 1138, duke of Poland, seperated the state into smaller duchies that were given under the control of his sons, reforming the state into the confederation, somewhat similar to, HRE, while before that, Poland was a unified singular state. The members of such confederation were vassals of the High Duke, who was the leader of the state. Then, in years 1227-1295, there wasn't any Polish state, as the title of High Duke was abolish, and all duchies become independent, ending the confederation. The Kingdom of Poland (1295-1296), was a completely separate entity from other Polish kingdoms/duchies on the list, as it was a standalone short-lived attempt in recreating the title of King of Poland, that only controlled Greater Poland and Pomerelia, as other Polish duchies, such as Krakow, or Masovia, were still independent. Then Kingdom of Poland (1300-1320), was a proper reestablishment of the confederation of Polish duchies under the King of Poland, that eventually however ended with fauiler, and 14 years of interregnum period, with Polish duchies still pretty much remaining de facto independent from the centralized power. Then, the United Kingdom of Poland was establishmed in 1320, with coronation of Władysław I Łokietek, and abolishing all smaller duchies, and formed a unified kingdom. Sincerely, Artemis Andromeda (talk) 23:54, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing really changed in 1138, as Poland was divided into separate provinces basically after the death of each ruler. This time the division just happened to be more permanent. It is not true that Poland did not exist in the years 1227-1295, there was a sense of unity between the Polish lands ruled by members of the Piast dynasty, there was just no one powerful enough to impose his will on the others. Conventions of princes were held, the unity of the state was personified by a church metropolis, and the whole country was called Polonia. Przemysł II did not create a separate state, as you say, but he crowned himself king of Poland, although he only managed to cover two large provinces with his power. Both Wenceslaus II and Ladislaus the Short regarded themselves as successors to Przemysl II. The only significant moment would be the fall of the so-called First Polish State in 1031-34, Casimir I actually built the state from the beginning, on slightly different principles. Other periodisations as regards statehood are not justified. The term kingdom of Poland refers to the Polish state from the coronation of Bolesław Chrobry in 1000 or 1025 until the fall of the state in 1795. Then we have the Congress Kingdom (Congress Poland) and the German-created Kingdom of Poland (1917-1918). A separate entity, not identical and existing alongside the kingdom, is the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland, created in the mid-14th century. Other divisions and administrative changes, the appearance and disappearance of crowned rulers, are very well described in articles on Polish history, there is no point in multiplying entities beyond measure.Marcelus (talk) 00:49, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus: I don't think the problem lies in the periodization of Polish history, since this already exists:

It's not a perfect periodization, but it's as good as any (personally I would have preferred if the first three articles had included a time period - e.g. History of Poland (960-1385), but that's a secondary thing). Here we are dealing with various forms of Polish statehood. We certainly need a Kingdom of Poland article, but it should be a single article, describing the process of the emergence of royal power in Poland, covering the period from 1000 to 1795, explaining why some rulers crowned themselves and others did not and mentioning attempts to reconstruct the kingdom in the post-partition period - Congress Poland and the regency kingdom formed in 1916, but as an epilogue. I believe there may be an article under the title Monarchy of the First Piasts or First Polish State, describing the first state founded by the first half of the 10th century and collapsed in 1031-34. It is often distinguished in Polish historiography (e.g. Labuda, PIerwsze państwo polskie). This state actually collapsed and had to be rebuilt anew. The article Crown of the Kingdom of Poland should exist. But it should not be an entry describing the history of Poland, but concerning a certain political and legal concept, which was not created in 1385, but around the middle of the 14th century. The concept included the idea that: 1) the kingdom does not belong personally to the king, but to the Crown, which symbolizes the indivisibility and permanence of the state 2) the Crown symbolizes the state, which is not only in the hand of the ruler, but also communitas regni (in the Polish case the nobility and the clergy) 3) the Crown symbolises the whole state and not only the lands which are actually part of the kingdom (in the Polish case Silesia and Pomerania) 4) after the Union of Lublin, despite attempts to extend the concept of the Crown to the whole Commonwealth, it became the name of the "Polish" part of the united state. All this should be included in such an article. It was quite an original Polish creation, but there were oldest examples of similiar concepts in Europe. There were English, Bohemian, Hungarian, Aragonese Crowns, as political entities (classic Kantorowicz's The King's Two Bodies, Of course articles such as Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Duchy of Warsaw, Congress Poland are inviolable and should exist alongside. The Duchy of Poland should be a disambiguation page leading to other pages. I consider the existence of the article United Kingdom of Poland to be nonsensical. Especially since it ends on 1385. BTW on Polish Wikipedia the mess isn't much better. BTW2, descriptions from Kingdom of Poland are basically WP:OR:

Marcelus (talk) 10:55, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Marcelus You make a good point. Frankly, the PLC article has been the only one I've edited significantly, and that was long ago, when my research and writing skills weren't at their best. Anyway, I fully agree we need a series of articles on Polish statehood (as in, articles which are structured as describing a state, i.e. geography, politics, economy, and not just history), and generally speaking, yes, I think it makes sense to have a Kingdom of Poland main article, as the one proceeding the one about PLC (although technically I still think the Mieszko I Duchy period cannot be properly described as Kingdom). How to split it, exactly, I'd really prefer to base such a decision on a reliable historian (Labuda, sure). PS. Anyway, unless someone jumps in to do major rewrites now, my preferred solution is to restore this version, pre-AA's restructuring, and turn his(her?) article into redirects, since that older article was stable for many years and has the correct "state" structure. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:01, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Piotrus Except that the Kingdom of Poland article should not precede PLC, but exist in parallel, as the kingdom did not cease to exist either in 1385 or in 1569. As to the state of Mieszko I propose: First Polish state or Polish state (before 1039), which would describe the formation of the Polish state from the early 10th century and its decline after 1039. After his return to Poland, Casimir the Restorer rebuilt the state from scratch, with a new capital, church hierarchy etc.Marcelus (talk) 11:07, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcelus I think Crown of Poland describes the Kingdom of Poland within PLC. (The confusing part is that it also describes the entity pre-PLC). As for the pre-10? state, I am open to seeing what the literature says (our old article used the year 1025). Frankly, we have numerous ways to divide things, including yours, and that's why I strongly believe we need to reply on what real historians say. Which is why I still intend to research and write the periodization of Polish history article first, and only when I am done (unless someone does it first) I'll be able to strongly opine on what is the best solution (and hence, for now, I support restoring the articles to how they looked during the ~2010-2021 period). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:14, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@PiotrusWell, I cannot agree with you completely. We are not talking about periodisation here. Only about describing political creations and concepts. Kingdom of Poland and Crown of the Kingdom of Poland are two different things that existed side by side in time. The problem does not concern the periodization of Poland's history at all, because this one is done well in my opinion (Poland in the Early Middle Ages, History of Poland during the Piast dynasty, History of Poland during the Jagiellonian dynasty, History of Poland in the Early Modern era (1569-1795) etc.).Marcelus (talk) 11:53, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@MarcelusBut we are talking here about the periodization of Polish state. That's very related. I started pl:Periodyzacja historii Polski (work in progress) and I'll get back to you when I am done. For now, again, given I am unsure what is the best solution, I prefer restoring stable article had in the past decade (so, roughly, I agree with you that we need to revert Andromeda's edits, but you have not proposed what to do to replace them, hence my vote to restore and redirect). If you intended to write a series of new articles, you are welcome to do so, but we need something in the interim. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:17, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Piotrus Not really, articles dividing Polish history into periods already exist (I mentioned them in a previous post), here we are talking about Polish states.Marcelus (talk) 13:17, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcelus Periodization of Polish states is very much a thing too. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 14:40, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • (edit conflict with last item) Remove these to restore the series of articles that we used to have (perhaps still do), per Marcelus. The whole series of creations results from the fallacy that a ruler taking a new title creates a new sovereign state and thus requires a new article. The changes in status (Duke to King and vice versa) did not create a new polity, only a new status for an existing one. The history of Poland is slightly complicated because at some periods there were multiple polities. For example Silesia was at one period a Polish duchy. Since WWII it has again been part of Poland, but not for many centuries between. Equally, at times, the ruler of one polity also ruled another, perhaps by a personal union. In the 18th century the electors of Saxon were sometimes also kings of Poland, but that does not mean that Poland and Saxony ceased to exist in favour of an allegedly merged state, when in fact each retained its own institutions. Only where there was a split, so that two successor states went in completely different directions should new articles be needed. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:47, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Restore to prior configuration - These new articles were a unilateral attempt to reconfigure how Wikipedia deals with large swaths of Polish history. Some of the article divisions are based what are effectively nothing more than semantic distinctions, plus WP:NOPAGE - even if a case can be made for these being distinguishable entities, that doesn't mean that we must deal with them all on separate pages. Such major reconfiguring should go through RfC, rather than creating duplicate timelines and trying to sort it out by AfD. Best approach is to return to status quo ante and work forward from there in a more considered manner to decide how best to divide medieval Polish history.

Just FWIW, we have a single article covering the Kingdom of Navarre, beginning when what became the kingdom was probably nothing but a tribal cheifdom and perhaps a frontier province of the Caliphate of Cordoba, through semi-autonomy, petty-kingdom, dominant monarchy, appenage to the French crown, and formal disolution, spanning multiple dynasties and even a change in the name of the entity (Pamplona, then Navarre), all in a single article, which is basically analogous to the approach being suggested here, rather than slicing and dicing every time there was a political or stylistic change.

I agree that the sourcing for Banister's bio is was somewhat thin. The Forbes source is more about the "soft porn" site Zivity than about Banister, and the Rand Paul/Ted Cruz donations are little more than passing mentions. I did find a FoxNews interview, a primary source that I added as an external link.
Clearly, Cyan Banister has had/sought far more coverage, and I began to think perhaps the two articles should be merged to "Cyan and Scott Banister". But I came across this and this, and concluded a merge would not be appropriate. Not exactly verklempt, more like meh. So...

Is the Zecharia Sitchin book The 12th Planet or 12th Planet (musician) the primary topic? This page should be moved to the base title if there is no primary topic; otherwise, it can be deleted per WP:2DABS with one article having a hatnote to the other. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:46, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. We don't have an article on it (if we did the case would be clearer) but I suspect that Twelfth Planet Press may be notable, and unrelated to the other two. It appears to be an Australian small press mostly dealing with speculative fiction. It is mentioned in about 50 of our articles, in part because many of its publications have been nominated for notable awards. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:57, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaving the press aside for the moment, from the edit history of the article we have these candidates:
    • 12th Planet (musician) — This is obviously a valid candidate for a redirect.
    • Eris (dwarf planet) — This was never described as the twelfth planet, but was once tentatively the tenth planet, as recorded in many places including (for just one example) ISBN 9783319098944 page 49 (Springer, 2014). So this is not a valid candidate for a redirect.
    • The 12th Planet, Nibiru (Sitchin), and Nibiru (hypothetical planet) — These, twelfth planet, Nibiru (proposed planet) (AfD discussion), and 12th Planet, currently all redirect to Zecharia Sitchin. Clearly the two "Nibiru" titles placed here should have properly gone at the Nibiru disambiguation (which has Sitchin), not here. But the book title is a valid candidate for a redirect for a mis-spelling of its alternative title, The Twelfth Planet, which is also a redirect.
    • 5 Astraea — One can find reams of 19th century sources, from encyclopaedias to lectures by astromoners, describing 1 Ceres as the first minor planet, but no-one at that time calling it either the seventh planet or the eighth planet. This is similar. By the time of its discovery the separation between major/primary and minor/secondary planets was widespread in reference works, and no-one called it the twelfth planet. It's the fifth minor planet (per, one of many examples, "The Asteroid Question" in an 1891 issue of All the Year Round). The only source that I can find supporting twelfth planet is a vastly anachronistic book published in 2014 by David A. Weintraub, an explanation that doesn't use the actual contemporary terminology. So this is not a valid candidate for a redirect. 5 Astreae was never called this.
  • In addition:
    • Charon (moon) — There's actually a far better case for this as twelfth planet than there is for 5 Astreae. There are sources such as ISBN 9780387778051 page 248 (Springer, 2010) that do record its tentative identification as the twelfth planet, even if that never actually happened in the end. But there aren't that many, and this is on the borderline of validity, I think, nudging from the side where it is not a valid candidate.
  • I'm inclined to think that this is equal weight between the musician and the book, and neither is really a primary topic. Search Google News, and the musician is by far the expectation. Search Google Books and the pseudoscience is the expectation. I'm not sure that we can weigh the one over the other. They're both the most expected in their individual niches, but the only prioritization criterion between the twain is that the musician is at least real.

    Twelfth Planet Press being notable would solidly make the case for this disambiguation for me. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be. There are lots of "About Twelfth Planet Press" blurbs in its own books, but little to nothing that I can find outside of that that documents it and could support an article on it. So it's 2 things to disambiguate, and I'm inclined towards equal-weight personally, although I could compromise with having the musician as the primary topic if that's the consensus.

So, I would consider the Ethan Young piece, with usual caveats applied given the source, as reliable. Moreover, the length of Young's piece shows there's more than a "tiny bit of content" available.

Archana Jois

This BLP still does not establish general notability for its subject. A previous article was deleted in 2019, saying that she had only appeared in one major film, and was too soon for acting notability. She has now appeared in another film which is a sequel to the first. Her appearance in this sequel saves this article from a G4 deletion.

She has also appeared in Vijayaratha, which does not have an article and maybe should have an article. However, neither this article nor the sources support general notability. This article doesn't say anything except that she exists. The references don't say anything about her except that she exists. The references are almost all about the films, and are only passing mentions of her.

Number Reference Remarks Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 Times of India Says that the subject is an actress Yes No. We knew that. No? No
2 The Hindu Interview with subject No Yes Yes No
3 Bollywood Life Advance description of KGF 2 Yes No ? No
4 zeenews.india.com Review of KGF 2 Yes Not about the subject Probably Yes
5 Times of India Review of Vijayaratha Yes Not about the subject No? Yes
6 NewIndianExpress.com Review of KGF 1 Yes Not about the subject Probably Yes
7 pragativadi.com News about revenue from KGF 2 Yes Not about the subject ? Yes
8 onmanorama.com Hype about KGF 2 Yes Not about the subject ? No

She may or may not be notable. This article does not speak for itself and does not establish her notability, and the sources do not establish her notability. Maybe the originator can find real sources about her within seven days and build an article. If not, the article should be either deleted or moved to draft space.
