Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Solar eclipse of October 19, 1808

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
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 redirect to List of solar eclipses in the 19th century. There clearly is no consensus to keep this as an stand-alone article (despite the sole WP:BUTITEXISTS !vote); and I don't see why this was relisted, other than maybe some WP:RELISTBIAS.

Failed GNG: The eclipse only occurred in the sea near Antarctica, and it is unlikely that anyone saw the eclipse at that time. Likewise, history does not record this eclipse, and this eclipse has no scientific value. Therefore, this eclipse is not of notability, and therefore the references in the entry do not prove notability, i.e., they do not constitute a valid introduction.

Delete. It's worthwhile including it in the List of solar eclipses in the 19th century (as it is), but there is no point in giving it an article of its own. Athel cb (talk) 12:23, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
