Non-notable author. a large number of references provided (or at least, formatted as references) but as far as I can tell they are all either self-published or contain only trivial mentions of the article subject. The excessive amount of inane personal biographical information seems designed to cover the basic fact that this author is non-notable. Jdcooper (talk) 23:56, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No sourcing found for the author, not very much of anything found. Sources used are orange or red, or not registering for reliability. Rather extensive PROMO it seems. Oaktree b (talk) 02:47, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

For this we usually just say "redirect". "Keep" usually implies keeping the content/history of the article rather than just the title. Redirecting implies keeping the title (how else would it redirect). — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:13, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - plenty of references are there.. they have some of the biggest ad campaigns for watches out there.. Most articles need 5-10 sources .. vandalism comment. Has tagged team the entire set of pages in editing war.. Both are from upwork.. He nominated 2 pages and didnt even leave the required notifications on the talk pages. This is vandalism.

  • When you say "sufficient referencing" you should to be able to point to at least two specific references which meet GNG/NCORP criteria for establishing notability. Please provide me with links to any two references (and the paragraphs within those references) which meet WP:SIRS - that is, have in-depth (WP:CORPDEPTH) "Independent Content" (WP:ORGIND) about the company. It would be nice if you started including this information with your future AfD !voting. HighKing++ 16:55, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    I just want to note that Okoslavia is making pile-on votes. I believe their rationale mean nothing when they say "Keep per Indefensible and others", because Indefensible hasn't demonstrated that the references are sufficient, and others have been blocked for being sockpuppets of ScienceAdvisor (the creator of this article).

  • Weak Delete reference [3] and [4] are just sites selling the watches. Ref [5] is about the opening of one branch. Ref [6] is about a photograph competition that mentions the brand in passing. Three of the references are about some famous people who are brand ambassadors which isn't anything out of the ordinary (for famous people I mean). Two of the references are a potted history of the brand. I've had a (very) brief look for any more references and can't find anything other than sales sites. Someone else might be able to come up with more refs.Knitsey (talk) 14:57, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. ScienceAdvisor seems to have a fundamental misunderstanding of our notability guidelines, and doesn't see likely to be convinced otherwise, for all that's now mostly a moot point. Having big ad campaigns is, in fact, not a reason to retain an article on Wikipedia. From my review (though TWL is still not working for me on my laptop for some reason) I would agree with the assessment made in a previous AfD on another subject, that it is very unlikely that better sources could be found on this topic. Sock disruption aside, a topic for which there is no and can be no encyclopedic article written to standards is deleted, with prejudice. The redirect may be restored after deletion, but I do not believe the article should be kept in page history. Alpha3031 (tc) 05:55, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I agree with Knitsey above that the sources fails to meet GNG/NCORP criteria for establishing notability, the references used fails to contain sufficient in-depth "Independent Content". HighKing++ 19:31, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to the Time Force seems ok Oaktree b (talk) 02:50, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete for lack of a merge target. I won't clog up the discussion with my search findings since I don't believe they are germane to the outcome. But I will say that my searching leaves me at the same time convinced that this is a brand of some encyclopedic significance, for which sources meeting NCORP might well exist, and that no such sources are apparent at present. (I would note that searching Colombian and Spanish sources yields better results, including some that might meet the GNG, but I'm not seeing any that go the full CORPDEPTH.) And given the history of the article, I can see no reason to extend any benefit of the doubt whatsoever. I do not think there should be any particular prejudice against good faith re-creation, but the redirect proposed above seems fine. -- Visviva (talk) 00:30, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Article may need a copyedit but does indicate notability. Seems to meet both WP:BASIC/GNG and WP:NMUSIC. Bit of a BEFORE shows a ton of English language stuff. Allmusic prose biography with a credited author is promising per WP:ALLMUSIC [7]. Some sigcov in books eg [8] Credited composer on several notable films including some festival awards and tons of niminations.

Oregon State University College of Liberal Arts[edit]

Subject does not appear to be independently notable (notability is not inherited from its unquestionably notable parent organization) ElKevbo (talk) 22:34, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - The Oregon State University College of Liberal Arts article was added to the Oregon State University main article several years ago, along with articles on the Colleges of Engineering, Business, and Science. The goal has been to provide articles for all of OSU's colleges over time, just as many other universities do on Wikipedia. Each of these articles has been growing with the additions from multiple writers - especially the Liberal Arts College article. Inside the article's talk page you will note that there have been no recent discussions about issues from anyone - although old and resolved issues still remain. Elkebvo placed, what I feel is a random and unnecessary, Request for Deletion (7/8/23) on this article due to the subject not being "notable". I, of course, couldn't disagree more and question how it is even possible to consider a major public university's college not "notable". There has been zero correspondence leading up to this notification and no history of abuse with this article. I am dumbfounded by the argument as a whole since hundreds of universities on Wikipedia have an article for their college of liberal arts, college of arts and letters and college of arts and sciences. Why is OSU's CLA article being singled out? Not a single sentence is duplicated on the parent article.

From the "Not Notable" Wikipedia page:

"avoid indiscriminate inclusion of topics" Are these "really" indiscriminate topics?

  • Schools
  • History
  • Academics
  • Student awards
  • Budget cuts
  • Expansion
  • Notable alumni
  • Notable faculty

The whole "presumed" and "trivial" question is subjective, to say in the least. We could have the same debate over every single page on Wikipedia, which brings me back to why is this article being singled out with no precedential communication from Elkevbo or other Wikipedia editors. As I remember, all issues have been addressed up until this very random notification for this article. I am not the only writer for this article, but I am a regular contributor. Everything on this page is sourced and are well-known historical facts. If Wikipedia readers believed a source was not accurate, they would have provided a "Talk" comment over the last +2 years so it could be debated or addressed. I see no history of that.

One of the issues we all have when writing an article about a university college is finding secondary sources. Mostly, because mainstream news rarely provides in-depth historical information about individual colleges within universities. In addition, many of the NP archives are paywalled. Does that make individual colleges less "notable?" Of course not, it does however make it more difficult to find secondary sources. I will admit that ALL university college pages are universally low on secondary sources. In most cases, the secondary sources used in the majority of these articles was a rewrite from a college press release. Is that really bad or make it "not notable"? Again, no. College press releases are routinely used as reliable information by all outlets and should be considered a highly reliable source of information by Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ludviggy (talkcontribs) 01:01, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ludviggy Keep(talk)

A "keep" argument would probably be most convincing to other editors if you could provide - here or in the article - reliable sources that clearly and explicitly discuss this college in sufficient detail to establish that it's independently notable. Sources that are independent of the college would probably be more convincing to many editors. ElKevbo (talk) 00:53, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But the sources don't discuss the subject of the article - that is what WP:N requires. ElKevbo (talk) 22:23, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I would not merge most of the material back into the parent article; much of it is unnecessarily detailed.
My initial sense is that several of the other colleges meet WP:GNG as there are multiple, independent sources that explicitly discuss them. That's just not the case for this particular one (in my experience, colleges of art, science, or both typically don't have the same cohesion of mission and identity as other colleges that focus on a specific, cohesive discipline or set of closely related disciplines - that also means that many of them have not been the subject of focused inquiry and documentation hence they're often not independently notable). We should not expect all subunits of a notable organization, including many universities, to themselves be notable. ElKevbo (talk) 22:21, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The other 3 colleges do not have articles that are really any better in my opinion, it would either have to be all or none. If only this article gets deleted then it might be unfair discrimination against liberal arts. However merging all of that content from the 4 articles back into the parent article would be unwieldy, so I would probably just leave them and try cleaning them up at this point. - Indefensible (talk) 02:00, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If there are other articles that should also be nominated for deletion that they should be nominated, too. "Wikipedia editors have written a long article using sources that are about other, related subjects" is not a good reason to keep an article. It's unfortunate that volunteers spent time on an article that could or should be deleted but that isn't a reason to keep that article.
The notion of Wikipedia editors practicing "unfair discrimination against liberal arts" is silly. Other colleges tend to attract specific, focused attention in part because many programs outside of arts and sciences are programmatically accredited and that tends to attract media attention every _ years when accreditation is reviewed. Professional licensure rates - engineers, teachers, nurses, etc. - also tend to attract attention and generate focused media articles. Agricultural schools often have long histories tied to land grant acts, federal law, and state laws so they also tend to attract some focused attention (for example, at my current university, the "Master of the Grange" - the state's leading farmer - is an ex officio member of our board of trustees). ElKevbo (talk) 03:20, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You should nominate the other colleges at OSU for deletion on the same grounds then in my opinion, I feel uncomfortable on principle voting to delete this when there would be a discrepancy in comparison with the other articles. Currently it seems like this article for the liberal arts has more coverage over the others, I do not see why it should be deleted and the others not. But frankly I would still just leave them, primary sources in some cases are valid and might be good enough. - Indefensible (talk) 01:10, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It's a reasonable split from the main article, even if not strictly required. If the split was truly done too early, propose a merge on the Oregon State University talk page so editors focused on that article can evaluate in-depth instead of in a rushed AFD. In other words, it would be disruptive for the quality of the main article for this AFD to result in a merge. There are no major NPOV violations here, and the vast majority is verifiable, so, with respect to the nom, "unnecessarily detailed" does not seem like a reason for deletion. —siroχo 23:20, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How is it reasonable to split this information into a new article when only one source - a 3-page summary written for the subject itself - in the new article is actually about the subject? There doesn't seem to be nearly enough to meet WP:N or to write an article about the subject. That one editor has continued to expand the article by using references that are about the university or other subjects doesn't support the contention that the subject is notable. ElKevbo (talk) 00:27, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above. Okoslavia (talk) 07:30, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The arguments presented that the article is well-distanced from the main article or otherwise properly sourced or well-written is missing the point. The notability of the subject needs to be presented, and as it stands much of the sources don't demonstrate that. In fact, the majority of the sources in the article seem to be primary, or exclusively local and connected with the College of the Liberal Arts. GuardianH (talk) 00:56, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'm seeing plenty of independent reliable sources cited in the article; I guess the question is whether coverage of e.g. the school of visual arts counts as coverage of the College of which it is a part. This is an issue on which the GNG is silent, and which can get into some weird metaphysical territory if one thinks about it too hard. But as a practical matter I don't really see why such coverage wouldn't count. Ultimately this is a "how should we break up this large blob of content" question rather than a "should we have any content on this at all" question. The notability guidelines can furnish some guidance there but following any set of rules too rigidly is a recipe for trouble. On the whole it seems to me that we are going to have a much more manageable set of articles if we use the college as the unit of coverage rather than having articles on any individual school, program or department that can clear the GNG (and that someone feels motivated to write) -- and much more manageable than trying to smoosh all coverage of the university into a single article. -- Visviva (talk) 02:27, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) explicitly addresses this: "An organization is not notable merely because a notable person or event was associated with it. A corporation is not notable merely because it owns notable subsidiaries. The organization or corporation itself must have been discussed in reliable independent sources for it to be considered notable....This works the other way as well. An organization may be notable, but individual members (or groups of members) do not 'inherit' notability due to their membership. A corporation may be notable, but its subsidiaries do not 'inherit' notability from being owned by the corporation." ElKevbo (talk) 03:53, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I mean, the language of INHERITORG pretty clearly doesn't contemplate this kind of situation, and was more about the abuse of corporate and product articles. But even if we're approaching this legalistically (which we really shouldn't), then we have to consider that WP:NSCHOOL expressly bypasses NORG: All universities, colleges and schools [...] must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both (my emphasis). INHERITORG is part of NORG and is not part of the GNG, so (as long as this meets the GNG) INHERITORG does not apply. -- Visviva (talk) 05:30, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
But it doesn't satisfy WP:GNG - there is only source that is substantively focused on this subject. (It's telling that (a) that one source is closely connected to the subject and (b) another editor has been working quite hard to improve this article and they haven't been able to find another source specifically focused on this subject.)

As a quick follow up nearly two weeks after this nomination was made: Ludviggy has been working quite hard to improve the article and it currently has 102 sources. However, all of those sources either (a) only mention this college in passing or (b) were written by people who work for the university or college. Therefore, this article still fails WP:GNG. ElKevbo (talk) 00:00, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think the criteria Elkevbo is applying to this particular article is not standardized across Wikipedia. I think we all know most articles suffer from a lack of outside independent sources. There is no set number or ratio of "independent" source required by Wikipedia. Again, this is subjective. This is especially true for university college articles, which all suffer from a very high ratio of non-independent sourcing because the main sources, available online and tracking a university college history is generally the university itself. Does this really make it a bad source? No. The information I am sourcing is generally dates of events, names of programs and chairs of departments, which are not controversial or political. Major public universities aren't motivated to lie about the type of facts I use in this article. Why Elkevbo is so focused on deleting this particular university college article leads me to believe he is not an unbiased editor. What Elkevbo fails to mention is that most newspapers today are paywalled and this has a significant impact on a writer's ability to source historic information from independent sources online - especially historical information about public institutions with histories over 100 years. We writers do our very best to source a document like this with all the information that is still available online. Most of the original independent news articles for this topic are only partially available online from independent archives. Even still, I believe I have provided the necessary sources, many from a combination of independent archives and non-independent (but highly reliable university) sources, to fulfil Wikipedia's minimum criteria for notability.

  • Keep I do not agree with ElKevbo's position. Walt Yoder (talk) 02:18, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment following relist: I fear I am not quite following the guideline-based argument above. It seems we all agree that INHERITORG is not part of the GNG and does not apply here per NSCHOOL. That means we are back to the ordinary English-language understanding of what it means for a source to cover something. I don't think anyone would dispute that coverage of the Whoville Arts District is also coverage of Whoville, or that coverage of some building's historic cupola is also coverage of the building, etc. Of course some part-whole relationships are so attenuated or obscure that they can't reasonably be counted in this way without slipping into OR, but I don't think the straightforward relationship of a college to its component schools and buildings falls into that category.
    Given the above, it seems plain that the sources already at hand meet the GNG, e.g. [9], [10], [11]. (This is not to say that I think we are obligated to cover the college as a whole rather than an assemblage of parts, but I am not persuaded that anything prohibits it, and it seems like better encyclopedic practice to me.) -- Visviva (talk) 01:10, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't understand the reference to WP:NSCHOOL. It states: "All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both." It's not clear if it's intended to apply to colleges that are part of universities or only standalone colleges but I'll concede that it's plausible that it should apply to constituent colleges. Even if that is the case, the available sources do not satisfy WP:GNG or WP:ORG. GNG says that the topic must have "gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, and are not outside the scope of Wikipedia. We consider evidence from reliable and independent sources to gauge this attention." ORG says that the subject must have "been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability." The sources don't meet those criteria. this source is about a creative arts center, this source is about the university's history, and this source is about a couple of new majors at the university. In each of them - and all of the other sources in the article - the subject of the article, the college, is only mentioned in passing.
    I understand that it seems weird that a college at an accredited research university has not been the subject of significant documentation. But it's reality - some colleges simply have not had cohesive identities and missions such that they have lent themselves to scholarly study, internal navel gazing, media attention, and other forms of meaningful, focused documentation. Some colleges exist primarily or exclusively as a way to organize a bunch of academic units. There are several of those kinds of colleges at my university. They're not bad or dysfunctional organizations and nor is this college. But they don't meet our notability criteria. And frankly we'd have to really contort ourselves to piece together an article about them - just as editors are doing now for this college.
    If someone wants to propose that WP:ORG be amended to make colleges and equivalent constituent units of legitimate universities automatically notable, please do so.

  • Keep: If this subject was an English or Australian international, I don’t think we will be having this conversation because their pages would not be nominated in the first place. I think you should stop picking on articles on African subjects because they are east targets for deletion. You don’t expect African articles to have as much citations as their western counterparts. Amaekuma (talk) 22:15, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment @Amaekuma: The majority of articles I nominate for deletion have not been African. I even nominated a European player in my very next nomination. Not to mention I have created dozens of articles on African athletes and politicians. I certainly hope you've created more than me if that's the road you want to take. Thankfully, that's not too much of an indicator of anything, so I'd appreciate if you stopped the accusations. JTtheOG (talk) 23:13, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We need to have high quality sources for BLPs, that's non-negotiable. I have no problem with JT's nominations as it's clear that they are made based on lack of evidence of meeting our notability guidelines rather than any other characteristics. Banning people from nominating African subjects would be an absurd rule to put in place and not something I've ever seen on Wikipedia before (I've heard of topic bans but not anything like that). If sources showing WP:GNG can be found then simply present these in the relevant discussion and/or add them to the article and the article will be kept.

Footballer with brief professional career and no evidence of meeting WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC as far as I can see. A Chilean source search yields mostly social media and an empty ESPN profile page. He has a few namesakes in sports, who don't seem notable either, but may confuse you if searching. The man described in Uno Entre Ríós is a PE teacher from Argentina born in 1988, so cannot be the same person as this Chilean goalkeeper. Likewise, the man described in El Esquiú was a vice president of a federation back in 1980, so it's impossible for him to be the same person as this Altamirano.

  • Delete. Clearly fails WP:NACTOR, and the article text notes that neither role is significant. Regarding GNG, there's some coverage of her in this ScreenRant article ([15]) which talks about how her character in Octopussy was intended to be more significant. There's also a decent amount of coverage on the upcoming TV series Shōgun, which she's an executive producer on (e.g. [16], [17], [18]), though all of the articles I perused had her as a passing mention in relation to her father (who wrote the work being adapted). Ultimately this strikes me as falling short of the multiple sources with significant coverage needed for GNG. I also agree with nom that a redirect to her father is an inappropriate ATD here.

If there's an ABF that none of these contain sufficient non-trivial independent commentary on G'Kar, I simply don't know what to say. Babylon 5 was from the era of Genie, Compu$erve, and AOL. It was discussed on BBSes before there were such things as pop culture websites, so it doesn't entirely surprise me that not much was found in a standard BEFORE. Adding Katsulas (the actor's last name) or Mollari (his opposing character's surname) will get you better results. Jclemens (talk) 19:31, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, while this does help establish notability and SIGCOV, I would like to know what these sources in question say about G'Kar before making a vote, as these are physical books I don't happen to have access to. I'd also like to see how they can be used to improve the current state of the article. Pokelego999 (talk) 12:39, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
They're not organized to provide a single character sketch. For example, roughly half of them go through the series episode by episode, so there are G'Kar commentaries on multiple relevant episodes. Dream Given Form has (p. 480) a full page bio/obit of Katsulas, since it was published after his death that notes, in part, "G'Kar's transformation, especially when read in conjunction with Londo's, is truly one of the great character arcs in television history." There's more like that scattered around these books. The card representing G'Kar in the B5 collectable card game gets a multi-page treatment (interspersed with commentaries on the other ambassadors' cards) in Interacting with Babylon 5. Bottom line? If I had the time to improve the character article with the sources present, that would be a better use of my time than expounding on them here. Jclemens (talk) 18:07, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Of course. Still, given how you've described them to me, I'm going to have to say Keep on this one. Combined with some of the sources other commenters have found, there's way more than enough to establish G'Kar here. Thank you for taking the deep dive through your books for this one.

  • Draftify Right now the article is clearly in an unencyclopedic state. Assuming it is true that sources do exist on this character, it still requires a rewrite. Draftification would give time for the article to be improved and submitted via AfC. If the article cannot be improved within the time the draft is there, then one would have to call the claims of sufficient sourcing into question. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 05:36, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep there appear to be sufficient sources for an independent article. Otherwise a redirect to a character list would still be preferable to deletion. The article as it stands could probably be trimmed to include less plot summary and more "real world" context but no need for deletion. Eluchil404 (talk) 02:25, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Few years ago when I was doing a B5 article pass for notabilty, I've started the analysis section. Granted, it is still bare-bones, but the source cited is reliable and is a two-page long book chapter treatment of the character, at an academic level (author is a professor, book is published by Rowman & Littlefield). I think that's meets WP:SIGCOV, and per comments above, I am sure we can find another source or several that helps with the GNG requirement of multiple sources (which I understand as "at least two"). ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ is right the article is mostly fancruft now, but the topic is notable and the article just needs to be expanded with non-plot summary information and with footnotes added. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:44, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I had previously removed most of the known PR dumps, some of which were directly attributed to SEO spammers or "digital growth companies focused on performance". None of the rest seems particularly notable: "The Source" seems like it used to be a good RS, but there's a million ads for paid placement and SEO on the site, so not sure; it's certainly written like PR. "AllHipHop" seems like another blog, no author indicated. "Loading Magazine" just looks like a PR blog. "GenZHipHop" is absolutely a paid placement/PR post. "jamsphere" again is straight nonsensical PR, and looks like a ChatGPT dump. Was not able to find anything in independent searches, other than known fake SEO sites - there's been extensive paid placement in very low quality sources.

    second page I'm reviewing today, just thought I should reply to your comment. It's kind of harsh of you to say man and it's untrue. Charting on itunes itself may not be notable but being the youngest instrumental artist in America to do it is quite impressive. I have read up on Dom Okon and find his career quite interesting in a positive way. He has been featured on thisis50 owned by 50 cents himself. Hype mag which to some extent is notable and allhiphop and the source which I saw have their own pages on this site. All Hip Hop, Thisis50 and The Source are all verified on social media platforms. This leads me to believe that he has some unproblematic sources to use, and this page does meets wikipedia guidelines. Xodovoo (talk) 22:55, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete- I was expecting this article to be a shameless promotion by himself or managers, but the kid has actually been noticed by a few professional rap publications. But those sources are still in softball introductory mode and don't get too far from basic PR announcements. For all the other sources available, the folks above are correct about SEO scams and paid promo shenanigans.

    hi, i'm new but after reviewing this kid and doing some research I see he has a doll, stickers, candles and other products on Etsy made by individuals who are fans of him. He definitely has garnered some attention so I think the most appropriate action would be to allow for edits to this page if that's possible. He's clearly somewhat notable, the only problem with his page are his sources. If we can replace the sources on this page than I don't see why not it wouldn't be up to Wikipedia standards, then? Once again, I'm new so maybe I'm wrong but I see that being a possible solution for this issue anyway. Dexvnn (talk) 04:52, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

okay, i see what your saying in some capacity but it looks like to me at least all hip hop and the source are pretty notable.

This article likely fails to meet the WP:PRODUCT criteria as it lacks quality, in-depth references. I found a few such as those in TNW ([51]) and TechRadar ([52]), but it appears that they were either written by guest post writers/bloggers, thus being opinion pieces, or not written by staff.

Not hoax. I have searched the web and looked at some sources speaking about Elena Zagorskaya. Basically all of them are well-known reliable sources, such as French Le Figaro and Chilean state radio ADN. There are many more Russian speaking ones, such as Komsomolskaya Pravda and others, so the AfD explanation by the nominator is at least implausible. I will be requesting online "Музыкальная энциклопедия. Гл. ред. Ю. В. Келдыш. Т. 3. Корто — Октоль. 1104 стб. с илл. М.: Советская энциклопедия, 1976" (Soviet Encyclopedia of Music) to confirm whether Zagorskaya's career is described there. As the Merited Artist of RSFSR and the only Soviet singer to be the friend of Italian mafia, the person clearly passes WP:GNG. --Janeknichell (talk) 14:01, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's because the nominator argues that the subject is a hoax, when it's clearly not. Name drops are not enough, but I have downloaded "Музыкальная энциклопедия. Гл. ред. Ю. В. Келдыш. Т. 3. Корто — Октоль. 1104 стб. с илл. М.: Советская энциклопедия, 1976" and finally can confirm this encyclopedia has an extensive article about her biography. It confirms that Zagorskaya was blamed for association with Silician mafia in 1960s, that makes her the only Soviet singer related to Western mobsters in Soviet era, so this is the primary reason of notability in this case. In another Russian source, Komsomolskaya Pravda, the same statement is confirmed.

  • Comment I've notified the article creator, who I hope will turn up to comment. For the record I've no reason to believe the creator is the same as the LTA socks. It may be worth noting the SPI: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Birdsflyinghigh123. This LTA is long known to aim to propagate hoaxes and create external sources. I want to comment on the Daily Mirror, which is used as a reference in the original copy. No one would say the Mirror is reliable, but the mention of Elena Zagorskaya in that article seems especially non-believable after you read our article on Matteo Messina Denaro (assuming that's correct). The LTA also mentions on the talk page about how there are songs on YouTube. They seem equally fake. A hoax of this type is well within the MO of this LTA, and I'd want to see something amazing before I'd vote to keep it. Until then, consider me a delete. -- zzuuzz (talk) 23:40, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Not hoax, but (currently) no proof of notability either. As the sockpuppet in question mentioned above, the subject is present on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B0+%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%B3%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F) and other non-RS websites, but it is still unclear how it's notable according to the article. It is not enough to be just the Merited Artist of RSFSR to have a Wikipedia article; in most cases involving Soviet singers and actors the subject must be either the People's Artist of RSFSR or the People's Artist of USSR, which are two higher and much more prestigious honorary titles. For example, Olga Voronets was the People's Artist of RSFSR and therefore has her own Wikipedia article. I honestly don't know if being only the Merited Artist of RSFSR, the lowest Soviet title for artists, is enough for Wikipedia, but in many cases it isn't. --Thundertruth (talk) 19:42, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    You created a Wikipedia account just to make that comment? That youtube search does not prove or even suggest anything. GA-RT-22 (talk) 21:32, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    This is an obvious sock, so I've taken the liberty of blocking them. As I said above, those YouTube accounts all appear fake. They were all created within the last 2 years, have a minimum amount of content, few if any subscribers, and this is all well within the MO and capacity of this LTA. If you compare the search results for Olga Voronets, you get vastly different results. -- zzuuzz (talk) 21:37, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Neff also gets an entry in Cyclopædia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature, which is generally considered reliable for biographies. Neff's memoirs and musings are considered indicative of early 19th-century Continental Protestant thought, such as in this article. Neff, interestingly, seems to have had some contemporary influence on popular imagery of the Alps (see this article), but perhaps a bit more is needed to pull on that thread.

I previously nominated this article for deletion here, and the nomination was closed as a "soft delete". The page creator proceeded to request its undeletion, and two days later they haven't edited it at all. I'll repeat my reasons for nominating it for deletion in the first place: "Non-notable restaurant whose sources are quite local (meaning they fail WP:AUD). All are written promotionally, as is the article. There's no evidence that this is notable in the long run or at the present time. The sources lack WP:SIGCOV, and they mostly focus on the food and the interior of the restaurant." The article itself is in bad condition, composed mostly of a promotional description; even if it were "improved", I don't think there's a lot to add. In addition, the restaurant opened relatively recently, near the end of 2018, so there's no historical value there. Nythar (💬-🍀) 11:53, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Based on reasonable amount of effort made WP:BEFORE effort to locate sources, I do not believe this company meets WP:NCORP. The credible sources that are cited do not pass WP:ORGDEPTH. A lot of them are about the general politics of public funding of drug usage supplies, but not much independent analysis and discussion on this specific company by name.

    • Keep (and a comments/questions) I don't understand the delete rationale. Developer demolishes historic London pub in Architect's Journal, for example, it entirely about his dramatic and unusual activities, which prompted all sorts of other activities and reporting. Exemplo347, are you saying that Arhitect's Journal is not reliable? Or is it because the article is about his activities rather than him? Or because he technically did the activities via a limited company which he is the sole director of? I'm confused.
    Decision on illegally demolished pub myst "set a deterrent" in the Morning Advertiser (establish 1794) is also all about him.
    The first AFD happened in 2016. Calif has continued to make news since then. I can't see what the article looked like then, but back then it seemed like he was notable for one thing. The Magdala was a stub and Calif's involvement wasn't known to AFD participants. At that AFD Philafrenzy noted "Meets the GNG. Has coverage in a variety of secondary sources in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and extensive coverage in 2015" but most people noted a lack of detail and everything being about one pub. Both those factors are no longer true, so I challenge robustly that "nothing has changed since then"

    • Reply This is extremely straightforward. None of the articles are actually about Ori Calif at all. Have a read through WP:GNG and you'll see what I mean. None of the sources in the article, and none that I've found, meet the standards.
    Exemplo347 (talk) 11:19, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It is not extremely straightforward. Calif demolished the pub. OK, technically he did it via a limited company (that he is the sole director of). Are you suggesting that the simple creation of a limited company makes the actions not his? Probably every notable business person in the UK actually performs their activities via a limited company, but we understand it is David Beckham playing football, not David Beckham Football Company Ltd. We're not removing articles about singers because technically it was Elton John Music Limited who released the album. CLTX and Calif are the same thing, as he is the sole director. The demolition of the pub, is completely his action. CT55555(talk) 11:29, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It's clear you haven't read WP:GNG and I'm not prepared to explain it here when the link I provided explains it very coherently. A person does not inherit notability from a building they own (or one demolished by a company they're associated with). I'll step back from this discussion & let other editors respond now. Exemplo347 (talk) 11:34, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I am familiar with our notability guidelines. I am not asking you to explain them. I am asking you to explain how you think they apply to this article.
    Calif effectively is CLTX. The articles are about his actions.
    Someone could argue that as the sole director of CLTX that the article should be about CLTX and then someone would come along and say that CLTX is WP:COMMONNAME best known by its sole director, Ori Calif. CT55555(talk) 11:40, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The reason I suggested a redirect is because the vast majority of news is about Carlton Tavern. There is indeed other coverage as well, but it's largely WP:ROUTINE coverage of a lawyer's and landowner's dealings. I you took away coverage specifically about Carlton Tavern there would be zero claim to notability, and with such slim coverage of the individual within the Carlton Tavern articles, I was concerned WP:BASIC was not met.
    Do you think subject can meet WP:BASIC, and if so what sources would you use to demonstrate it? —siroχo 11:35, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    He is indeed mostly known about Carlton Tavern. And if it wasn't for the routine coverage of other stuff, I think we'd agree to redirect there. But that routine coverage is verifiable and enough to support an article. Routine coverage alone, obviously wouldn't.
    I think he passes WP:GNG. Of course that argument hinges on accepting (as clearly not everyone does) that coverage of his actions (pub demolition) is coverage of him. I say it is. We consider book reviews to justify articles about authors, we consider sports reporting about how a match went to justify articles about footballer and we should consider articles about the actions of a property developer to justify articles them. If you wanted to take a WP:BASIC approach, the first article in AJ is all about his actions. Or https://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk/Article/2016/05/31/Decision-on-illegally-demolished-pub-must-set-a-deterrent is also all about his actions. CT55555(talk) 11:46, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how this list meets WP:LISTN, but I think a merge to List of Harry Potter characters might solve the problem? The main list is suprisingly short and contains a number of redrects here as well, so this is really a weird fork (who decides which character is supporting anyway?). Thoughts?

Speedy Merge per content fork. Conyo14 (talk) 18:15, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – it could potentially stay if we come up with objective criteria for defining what's a supporting character, by appearances or by whether the actor appears in the main creadits or not, etc. But we should also add real-world information and reduce plot details, which means a major overhaul of the article. —El Millo (talk) 21:31, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Light Merge - As others have said, this is an odd fork that is pretty duplicative of the main character list. The only real bits of info on this list that would probably be a good idea to move over is the actors who portrayed them in the movies. All of the characters themselves seem to all already be present in the target list. Rorshacma (talk) 14:38, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge selectively per Rorshacma. Does not pass WP:SIGCOV as a topic or as individual entries. Arguably a WP:CONTENTFORK of the main character list, which also shows a reasonable WP:ATD. Shooterwalker (talk) 20:57, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. In light of recent discussions elsewhere I don't feel qualified to judge WP:RS, WP:IS, or WP:GNG. There's some coverage of the Rivera sisters' combined exit from the Sol in 2019 (1, 2, 3) but not enough on Karish specifically to warrant an article. If the Sol article had a more fleshed-out history section, the exit might have enough coverage to warrant a line there. Karish Rivera also appears to have started university and is no longer on the Stars' roster for the current Liga PR season, and there are no signs she's been active as a player for the Stars or PR since at least 2022. -Socccc (talk) 17:46, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This show was a zeitgeist moment in some cultures, so it's no surprise that many of the characters have coverage with relations to the real world. While the character isn't quite Bones McCoy there's still a ton to dig through, covering themes ranging from characterization during the mid 2000s, to abortion rights, to sickness and prayer and medical ethics, to the role of a doctor.

    @Siroxo Sources review: passing mention/plot summary, no preview, passing mention/plot summary, passing mention/plot summary, passing mention/plot summary and passing mention/plot summary again. Not seeing any WP:SIGCOV in what you listed, I am afraid. The character might warrant mention in some articles about medicine in fiction/abortion in fiction/etc., and of course in the general list of BG charactesr, but lack of SIGCOV and the WP:ALLPLOT content of the article prevents me from supporting your keep, I fear.

  • Weak keep Redirect to List of Battlestar Galactica characters. I couldn't see all of the sources mentioned by Siroxo, but what I did see were passing mentions of plot points, not discussion or analysis of the character. I didn't find anything better. Please ping me if good sources are identified. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 10:27, 11 July 2023 (UTC) Changing to weak keep following the "Doctors in space (ships)" source identification - that's one good source, with the others still marginal IMO. Another undeniably good source would make me a "keep" voter. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 16:22, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @BennyOnTheLoose The analysis is both in terms of characterization as well as in tying the character's actions (i.e. plot points) to aspects of the real world (i.e. analyzing the art through the medium of the character). Examples from references I linked:
    • showing how men are frequently put in charge of reproductive science, also including comparing the character performing pregnancy terminations to women smuggled onto the ship to real world right to choose,
    • pointing out more ties to the early 2000s zeitgiest including that the character is shown as a "crusty leftover" by having him smoke cigarettes
    • the character's sense of medical ethics is described in contrast both to a religious zealot and an immoral doctor, and describing how the characters are also portrayed differently (for example, this character smokes cigarettes rather than occasional cigars of the zealot, etc)
    • the character recommends prayer to a sick character, this action is tied to the real world explaining prayer as a comfort and a remaining option
    • He's compared to a mechanic in that he can "fix humans" as part of an analysis of the show comparing humans as machines

    Thanks for your ping. I've taken you up on your suggestion and taken in-depth shot at this (diff). I've attributed everything to avoid SYNTH, and tried to only mention pieces of the authors conclusions that rely (in full or in part) directly on mentions of Cottle. I've represented several authors examinations to avoid UNDUE (though one author did have two essays that were both good to pull from). My prose is admittedly my weakness, but I'm pretty happy with the underlying essence. If this doesn't work for a keep, I'd appreciate help in finding a suitable way to merge the majority of this, as I think it does represent a reasonable tertiary examination of the character. Note also that I tend to avoid doing much with character articles, so feel free to point out or clean up any MOS-type things I may have missed. —siroχo 09:39, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    @Siroxo It didn't, but the ping did. The analysis is... ok. I don't have time to check again for SIGCOV in sources, but it reads ok - much better than some 'ranked n-th in the list of Top 10 whatevers' that we get here routinely. I'd nuke much of the content in 'Further description' as a lot if is trivia, and I am surprised this doesn't have a proper 'fictional character biography' (which could be extracted from that mess of a subsection... it was a mess before too [71]).

  • Keep. The improved article is not just an in-universe description of a fictional character; it is focused on reception and criticism of the character which can be traced to multiple reliable sources, and demonstrates that a high-quality verifiable encyclopedia article that isn't just fancruft can be written here. Since the significance of these sources was called into question by others, I spent some time assessing the sources linked in this discussion. Notability is definitely borderline but I'm satisfied that there's enough here to meet GNG. Dylnuge (TalkEdits) 19:23, 23 July 2023 (UTC) (edited 19:32, 23 July 2023 (UTC))[reply]

Source assessment table: prepared by User:Dylnuge
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
Battlestar Galactica: Investigating Flesh, Spirit and Steel (ed. Kavneey, Stoy) Yes Yes The book is an edited collection of essays published by Bloomsbury Publishing. Yes Cottle is mentioned in depth in at least two essays in the collection. One (Jowett) spends several pages on Cottle's actions and role in providing abortions. Yes
Cylons in America (ed. Marshall, Potter) Yes Yes Another collection published by Bloomsbury Publishing. Yes Another essay by Jowett that covers Cottle in depth regarding the show's portrayal of science. The pages examining him begin with Other characters...serve as instructive contrasts, but Doctor Cottle, the Chief Medical Officer, is worth examining in detail (p. 68) Yes
The Theology of Battlestar Galactica (Wetmore) Yes Yes ? Cottle is only mentioned once, but a line from the character is used in the next few paragraphs to support a claim about the show's treatment of prayer as a source of healing. Not clearly significant on its own, but a bit more than just a passing mention. ? Unknown
Battlestar Galactica and Philosophy: Knowledge Here Begins Out There (ed. Eberl) Yes Yes Edited collection of essays published by Wiley. No Cottle is mentioned on page 7 and page 68, but both are passing mentions No
Battlestar Galactica and Philosophy: Mission Accomplished Or Mission Frakked Up? (ed. Steiff, Tamplin) Yes Yes Edited collection of essays published by Open Court. Note that despite the title, no apparent relation to the previous source. No A few references to Cottle and his actions, but the most significant of them is primarily focused on a plot situation (the ship running out of antibiotics) and not the character. Nothing here surpasses the passing mentions one would expect to find for any character in the show. No
Doctors in space (ships): biomedical uncertainties and medical authority in imagined futures (Henderson, Carter) Yes Yes Scholarly article published in a peer-reviewed journal (Medical Humanities); never been examined in depth on RSN but I see no reason to doubt the reliability and it's a publication of the BMJ which is reliable Yes Cottle is covered extensively in the section "Universality of health care..." and mentioned by name in the article's conclusion Yes

  • Redirect to the target suggested by Let'srun. Hatman31 (talk) 20:52, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep, otherwise redirect per above. While the nom is quite right to state that Unsuccessful federal judicial nominees are not inherently notable, they are also not inherently un-notable. There's a lot of duplication among Indian wire service articles, but at least one of them should reasonably count, and we also have these bylined reports from Bloomberg and the Boston Globe. And then there's this page or so of coverage related to her AUSA work. (One gets the impression from news searches that she has a much higher than average profile as an AUSA, which doesn't bear directly on the question of notability but does explain why it's not surprising to run across such coverage occasionally.) Some coverage in Telugu press as well, although the articles I've been able to locate don't have a lot of independent content. -- Visviva (talk) 02:09, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Article uses mostly primary/unreliable sources (the only reliable ones talk about the inspiration for the character). A quick Google search doesn't give sources that prove notability to the character. Spinixster (chat!) 01:21, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was soft delete‎. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. Liz Read! Talk! 00:44, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some coverage, but not enough for notability. Most are mentions of things she's involved with. Oaktree b (talk) 00:06, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

siroχo 01:21, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:BASIC - I have been reviewing coverage and have started to update the article; Nacpil appears to be nationally and internationally known as an activist, particularly for climate justice, and appears to be recognized as such by national and international press and scholarly sources. Due to the amount of coverage over time and the breadth of her activism since the 1980s/1990s, further expansion of the article seems possible based on available sources in e.g. GNews, GBooks, GScholar, and the Wikipedia Library. Beccaynr (talk) 15:49, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep (but I'm leaning more into a delete. I mean...as a Filipino living in the Philippines, I'm not 100% sure about how notable she is here. Her first husband for sure is a much more well known activist (and was even the subject of a musical). There are other activists who have a much higher public profile than her. The way this article was written looks a bit more PR-ish to me than encyclopedic. But, yeah, sure, if there are sources then we can keep it, just that it's gonna be a weak one for me. -- Tito Pao (talk) 05:52, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Meets WP:BASIC with sources presented by Siroxo. They're reliable and in-depth enough IMV. SBKSPP (talk) 07:09, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No sourcing found for this person. Award won seems notable, but there is not sourcing that discusses him. Oaktree b (talk) 00:03, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletion discussions. Oaktree b (talk) 00:03, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, unless I am missing something, this individual has been nominated for three Grammy awards thus meeting WP:MUSICBIO#C8. (some verification from a trade publication [72]) —siroχo 00:58, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I figured as much, but I was unable to locate sources that confirmed the nominations for the Grammy. To me, it seemed like a name in a list of people; I'd assume for the article to be kept, we'd need some other discussion of the person. Oaktree b (talk) 04:33, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Indeed, the guidelines state notability is presumed, not guaranteed, so other discussion can help affirm that presumption, but with the SNG being met, we don't need to go so far as to meet GNG or WP:BASIC. I think that when the notability guideline is met, we would need clear consensus that the presumption is not valid in the specific case to not use the guideline in that case. I guess we'll see where the consensus lands. Either way, we do need some amount of sourcing for WP:V. —siroχo 05:07, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of New Jersey-related deletion discussions. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 10:03, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The claim of notability is there and it's backed by sources like this one which provide in-depth coverage about the subject, with ample additional sources available to be added to flesh out further details about the subject beyond the list of songs. With that, the notability standard has been met. Alansohn (talk) 12:39, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
