The Stringer

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

This article leads to a political opinion blog. This article and that of its owner seems to be self-promotional, created by a SPA WP account for that purpose. No 3rd party sources are given. Notices at top of article have been in place for years with no improvement action. Pete (talk) 09:29, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – There are no independent, reliable sources to indicate that this would pass WP:GNG or WP:WEB, and the only sources the article cites are from the subject of the article itself. Kb.au (talk) 11:51, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete After excluding its own two domain names and facebook I could find nothing at all to indicate any notability. Aoziwe (talk) 13:51, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Weak retarget to MacGyver (season 7) as episode title. Besides that, the searches show other non-notable blogs such as Stringer Survey [1] Stringer Java Obfuscator [2] a blog by Desi and Derrick Unlat of Lloyd Lake Lodge [3], Jay Stringer [4], The Stringer Mausoleum [5], AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:56, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I agree with the above arguments. I'm not in favor of going over to the MacGyver article given the vagueness here. Don't have a strong opinion there, though. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 04:25, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A redirect to the precise episode section would be better than nothing. If this - or any other things mentioned above - becomes notable, then reëvaluate or create a disambig page. --Pete (talk) 08:15, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
