The result was keep. The only valid deletion rationale that have been raised during this debate is reference to notability by the nominator. No other editors who have commented have agreed with that assessment. Being a stub or the fact that it has not been edited or expanded in 3 years is ground for improvement, not deletion under our deletion policy. As stated in WP:LR, "WP:Verifiability does not require that all information be supported by a working link". Only after sufficient time are given after the link is noted to be dead and effort made to track down alternative sources do we consider a piece of information to be unverified. This closure does not proclude anyone from nominating the article to be merged to another article if they believe that is an appropriate course of action. -- KTC (talk) 19:01, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep or merge to Shark#Relationship with humans. I found some kind-of-reliable sources ([1][2], from first page of Google), and also noticed that an alternate term for this is "shark feeding", though that's not a good search term because of "shark feeding frenzy".

- Keep -- no valid grounds for deletion in nomination Not edited in 3 years is not a valid grounds for deletion, dead links are not a valid grounds for deletion, and "merely two sentences" just means it is a stub, not a valid grounds for deletion. --(AfadsBad (talk) 14:52, 11 September 2013 (UTC))[reply]
- Comment: The article clearly fails the general notability guideline and falls under reason #8 in the reasons for deletion: "Articles whose subjects fail to meet the relevant notability guideline (WP:N, WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC, WP:CORP and so forth)." The fact that nobody has put out enough effort to make this article and its subject in 3 years and has zero sources makes it a clear candidate for deletion. It's a nothing article with almost no content; it doesn't belong on Wikipedia, not until someone can establish notability and cite sources. Antoshi ☏ ★ 15:23, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm surprised it's lasted this long. Antoshi 23:59, 9 September 2013 (UTC)" Feel free to renominate with a valid grounds for deletion. While you again assert that not editing for three years makes it a "clear candidate for deletion," and that stubs are candidates for deletion, that simply is not Wikipedia policy. Also, unsourced non-BLPs are not "clear candidates for deletion." So far you still haven't used any valid grounds for deletion in your actual nomination. --(AfadsBad (talk) 15:43, 11 September 2013 (UTC))[reply]
- I'm not sure why you feel the need to be so combative at me over this. All I'm trying to do is make Wikipedia a bit more tidy. "Not edited in 3 years" is not my only argument as you keep bringing up. All that needs to be known is it's a source-less, nothing article that, yes, hasn't been touched in forever. You may not think it's grounds for deletion, but that's up to the administrator that has the final word to decide. Antoshi ☏ ★ 17:25, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Not quite; the administrator or other person who closes the AFD goes by community consensus, which can be found in the guidelines I linked to above. I mentioned all three of your arguments as not being valid grounds for deletion; they aren't part of the community consensus for why an article should be deleted. It's not a battle. It's just information. --(AfadsBad (talk) 17:45, 11 September 2013 (UTC))[reply]
- AfD's are not decided by "votes." Whether a keep or delete, etc. opinion is rendered is irrelevant. AfD's are resolved by the facts presented by the editors taking part in the AfD discussion and then decided upon by the administrator who has the final say whether to keep, delete, merge, whatever. As far as I can see, there's no reason to keep this article if there's no improvements made to it before the AfD is resolved. Antoshi ☏ ★ 18:10, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Subject is not notable. The article is completely based on the artist's self published website which is full of unsubstantiated puffery. While the artist has been associated with some notable opera companies and musicians, it has been in only a very minor way. His recordings appear to be on minor labels, and are probably self produced (i.e. not notable). An extensive search through google news and google books has yielded no articles where he is the primary subject, and/or been more than a brief mention in a list of performers in a critical review. 4meter4 (talk) 23:18, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep – I quickly found 2 articles where Barber is the primary subject: "Countertenor Terry Barber launches Craven Concerts Series", Sun Journal, and "American countertenor Terry Barber to perform Saturday at WNMU", Silver City Sun-News. These are admittedly somewhat regional newspapers, but there quite a few more articles like these and that should satisfy WP:MUSBIO #1. Further, the requirements of #6 and #10 at MUSBIO seem to be well met by Chanticleer, New Trinity Baroque, and his appearance in Sly at the MET and as Orlofsky at Carnegie Hall. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 05:00, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep. This profile article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and this one in the Connecticut Post along with the two that Michael listed probably push him over, although they are all pre-concert publicity and based on his own press releases and/or interviews. His work with Chanticleer and New Trinity Baroque (another very poor article) also push him over. The opera claims are very weak and somewhat inflated. The Sly claim is misleading and should be removed. No specific role is mentioned, which always rings alarm bells in articles like this. What does "joining the Met roster" mean? It clearly doesn't mean appearing in a named role on stage. I checked the Met Opera Database overall and especially the full cast lists for all nine performances of Sly and he is mentioned nowhere. He may have been hired as a cover (and obviously was never called upon to cover) or he was in the chorus. Note that no specific role is mentioned for the NYCO 2001 production of Il ritorno d'Ulisse in patria either. He is mentioned nowhere in the cast list given in the New York Times review. The Orlovsky was a concert performance of Die Fledermaus. I guess that could be called a "Carnegie Hall debut", but there is nothing to verify that he sang that role apart from his own biography and press releases. If this article is kept, we have to clean it up considerably and reference it properly. Voceditenore (talk) 06:30, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This character does not establish notability independent of Forgotten Realms through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of overly in-depth plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary.

- Keep Arguments above regarding independence of sourcing set the bar too high. Fact is, multiple separate companies have published material detailing this fictional element in multiple separate (although admittedly related) game systems. Jclemens (talk) 01:12, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- While the companies may be "separate" if you ignore the fact that one bought out the other, and the third produces its content under an official licensee agreement, the fact is that you have yet to actually point to the policy that says "D&D articles dont need to meet independent sourcing requirements that all other articles need to." -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 01:42, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article fails WP:NOTINHERITED. She is only notable as Ellen DeGeneres' mom. Hasn't even appeared on the show for a long time. PrairieKid (talk) 22:15, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Her notability certainly stems from her famous daughter, but she has become notable in her own right as a prominent gay rights activist and speaker. Google news reveals plenty of coverage and reliable sources, and most of them are not trivial mentions. Her original notability was as the parent of a celebrity, but this has changed. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:29, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. As numerous sources show, she is the author of a couple of books, an activist in her own right, and the subject of substantial coverage in reliable sources over a period of years.

A page on this product was deleted through AfD in March 2012. After subsequent re-creation, the page was protected under the "AbanteCart" name. The present page has been created as "Abante Cart" and a WP:CSD G4 has been declined on the basis that the new page differs significantly from the page deleted in March 2012.

The result was redirect to United States Senate election in Alaska, 1996. --BDD (talk) 16:24, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
While many editors have advanced solid arguments for deletion, generally based on her failure of WP:POLITICIAN, per WP:POLOUTCOMES her name remains a likely search term, so redirecting to the election she participated in is sensible. I'm not convinced by the sources presented in favor of a WP:GNG argument. It's natural that the Anchorage press would give coverage to an Anchorage school board member, but keeping on this basis would, frankly, set a terrible precedent. As for the 39 Google Books results (discounting books from Wikipedia), they're mostly political almanacs where she's no more than a list mention. There are also mentions of other people by the same name, such as a figure associated with Beethoven.
When notability of a local politician isn't conclusively demonstrated, WP:POLOUTCOMES offers the best guidance. --BDD (talk) 18:28, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - This is not a failed candidate for the for Mayor of Littleville or the Rumplestiltskin County Board of Supervisors. The U.S. Senate has been called "the most exclusive club in the world". There are only 100 U.S. Senators, and only two major American parties, so any major party candidate for a U.S. Senate seat passes the notability bar by definition, imo, even if they never do anything else important in their lives. However, they do not get the privilege of determining the fate of Wikipedia's articles about them. Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:29, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Normally I would find the "major party candidate for U.S. Senate" argument persuasive, but I looked at the link to the election results, and she did not even place second in the election. She got 11 percent of the vote and placed third behind the Green Party candidate, who got 13 percent. So although she did get the nomination of a major party, she was really kind of in "fringe candidate" territory. (At this point I am "neutral" on the deletion.)

- Redirect (as outlined below)
Delete- but with due deference to BMK who makes a good point about the numbers. I will say, though, that while it might be "the most exclusive club in the world", the subject is not a member of that club. In fact, she's no more a member than you or I (unless you happen to be a US Senator editing WP between sessions). I'm not strictly against an arbitrary major party Senate candidates are automatically notable rule but I can't really see the value for readers in a stub that simply says someone with that name ran as a Senate candidate this one time. There's probably a reason why half of the entries in the {{Democratic Alaska Senatorial nominees}} template are redlinks. Stalwart111 07:23, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply] - Keep, clearly notable, not only for her Senate Run, but also for her judicial problems, as witnessed by countless newspaper articles and also e.g. this article from the American Journalism Review.

- Comment; above there was a delete !vote for the lack of biographical detail, but this can be easily fixed. I have added info on her education and marriage, the same SPS has her professional career as well. I know that such a personal website doesn't add any notability, but it does complete the article and reduces the stubbiness and too tight focus of the article. Fram (talk) 10:04, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Note that Obermeyer requested that the article be deleted or rewritten to her specifications, it wasn't a straight deletion request. The request has been rev/deleted from the page history because it contained all of her personal contact info, but part of what she was objecting to was that there was some very poorly sourced information about her husband. The current version of the article isn't the text she put forward - we tend to avoid letting people write their own articles, obviously - but it is well-sourced and not overly focused on her husband. Being a major party candidate for the US senate means she passes notability, and given that she didn't actually demand deletion as the only option, I think it the article should stay.

- They are irrelevant in this case. This is a clearly public, known figure, both because of sources and because she run for an election, thus begging for public exposure. --cyclopiaspeak! 16:12, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Only if you hold that "Meets WP:BIO" == "is a public figure", because it'd be near impossible to be more obscure than the subject and still meet the notability requirements. In which case WP:NOTPUBLICFIGURE has no meaning or use and should not exist. I don't believe that. Herostratus (talk) 00:46, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
DeleteRedirect to United States Senate election in Alaska, 1996] per spirit and letter of WP:BLP which trumps most all other considerations. WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE requires a Delete close, absent a very clear consensus to keep, which I don't see here, and the person closing should take note of that. Unless the argument can be made that the subject is not "relatively unknown" (or is not not a public figure, the wikidefinition at WP:NOTPUBLICFIGURE of which is "People who are relatively unknown", so that's circular). But that argument can't be made. On a scale of being well known, from zero to ten, where ten is Barack Obama and zero is your Uncle Dwight, where does she fit? Somewhere between zero and one. If you wish to define "relatively well-known" or "public figure" as "a person who has been noted somewhere in some publication" that's totally idiosyncratic, and you'd have to explain exactly who WP:NOTPUBLICFIGURE is intended to cover. Nobody, I guess, since your Uncle Dwight has never appeared in the newspapers anyway and fails WP:BIO. So why does WP:NOTPUBLICFIGURE exist? To line birdcages? I don't think so. Herostratus (talk) 15:53, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Unlike any of my uncles, however, this person has run for the U.S. Senate, and received the endorsement of a major party (though as I mention above, she came in third in the election.) By running for public office, especially such a high-profile office, hasn't she intentionally made herself a "public figure"? Neutron (talk) 19:56, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Failed major party (you know, the ones who actually run things) US Senate candidate. Plenty of notability there. Beyond My Ken (talk) 20:37, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi, Beyond My Ken. This may surprise you, but yes—I am aware of what the U.S. Senate is, and what the Democratic Party is. I also know that Alaska is the 47th-largest state in the Union, with a population on par with, say, Charlotte, North Carolina. Senators from small states tend to be important only due to their disproportionate influence (to the size of population represented) in the Senate. Losing candidates from small states are much less important, broadly speaking. Except in unusual circumstances, candidates who run against long-term Senate incumbents are widely seen and understood to be pro forma bordering-on-disposable placeholders. Sure, they'll run a campaign for the sake of the show, but no one expects them to win. Ted Stevens, the then-28-year incumbent, won handily and unsurprisingly against Obermeyer in 1996, with 76% of the vote. (Granted, Stevens was dislodged in a squeaker of a vote in 2008 – 46.5% to his opponent's 47.8% – but only because even Alaska was unprepared (just barely) to return their senior senator after a felony conviction reached just a few days before the election.) TenOfAllTrades(talk) 22:03, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi, TenOfAllTrades. My sincere apologies for the insinuation that you weren't aware of the facts here, please chalk it up to my desire to put across my firm belief that all major party candidates for US Senate, even those from states with small populations like Alaska, are ipso facto notable. I mean, yes, there are probably more people living in my neighborhood of Manhattan than in the 49th State, but, for better or worse, the founders of the United States made all states equal with regards to representation in the Senate. (As far as I know, it's the only electoral body in the U.S. which is allowed to break the "one man, one vote" rule.) I see this as a bright line circumstance. I totally agree that failed candidates in almost every other circumstance start with a presumption of being non-notable, but with US Senate candidates and those for state Governor, my feeling is that notability is part and parcel of the candidacy.
Again, my apologies. Beyond My Ken (talk) 01:26, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: A Google search indicates that she has run for the U.S. Senate at least twice and probably three times. According to this, she ran again for the Senate in 2002 and 2004, and Mayor of Anchorage in 2000 (losing in the primary each time). I would feel more comfortable with a second source, and here is one for her run in 2004: http://peninsulaclarion.com/stories/060204/leg_060204leg001001.shtml (in which she is called a "perennial candidate.") She is also mentioned in United States Senate election in Alaska, 2004. I have not yet added any of this to the article because it would be good to have a second source for the 2002 run. But I think this sheds a different light on things. Neutron (talk) 21:18, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, she was the actual party candidate only once, and tried unsuccessfully to be the candidate a few more times. Those further unsuccesful attempts should be added to her article of course, but don't really add any considerable notability in themselves. What does indicate her notability is that she was the major topic of multiple articles in the Anchorage newspapers over many years:
- 19 July 1992: Called a loose cannon, she sticks to her guns: Theresa Obermeyer refuses to be silenced (a 2000+ word article)
- 17 December 1992: Obermeyer raises ruckus at Rotary
- 22 April 1993: Obermeyer, colleagues scuffle to the bitter end
- 30 April 1993: Obermeyer blasts board ethics panelists
- 29 September 1994: Obermeyer fined $50 for outburst
- 17 August 1995: Theresa Obermeyer arrested after federal building scuffle
- 12 June 1996: Judge jails Obermeyer for 30 days
- 4 July 1996: Obermeyer went on a fast track U.S. Marshal denies special handling
- 31 October 1996: police wait in wings as Stevens, Obermeyer debate
- 22 February 1998: Obermeyer charged with assault
- 21 August 1998: Obermeyer hurt in scuffle
- 11 November 1998: Jury clears Obermeyer
- 30 June 1999: School board vote muzzles Obermeyer
- 8 February 2000: District pays for Christal to sue critic Obermeyer
- 22 February 2000: Newspaper opinion piece about Obermeyer
- 9 March 2000: Obermeyer snubs foes, makes own way
- 3 July 2001: Obermeyer loses suit by Christal
And these are only the ones where she is actually in the title of the article... 17 articles, spanning 10 years, but not notable? Strange... Fram (talk) 07:06, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Marginally notable and I don't think we should ignore the wishes of the subject. Why not leave a redirect to an article about the election, in which I believe she finished third after the Republican and Green Party candidate? AniMate 16:06, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to United States Senate election in Alaska, 1996. This is her most prominent race, and a redirect to an election page is a common outcome for a losing candidate for a national office. Many of the information in the article can be added to the election page. Enos733 (talk) 20:48, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect with an asterisk. (Probably to the 1996 election article, though she also is mentioned in the 2004 election article.) My impression from her preferred version of the article is that she has ceased her very public "campaign", and I am not talking about a campaign for office, but the combination of election campaigns and other public efforts to gain redress for her husband's difficulties in being admitted to the Alaska bar. (Which may have finally been resolved one way or the other; that's not clear.) I do not view this as a direct candidate for WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE because she is not a "non-public figure" -- as I note above, it's tough to be a non-public figure when you've run in eight elections -- but more like sort of a version of Wikipedia's "right to vanish" (which directly applies to editors, not articles). In other words, ok, fine, redirect the article so it's not "live" (but remains preserved in the history), and if she doesn't run for office again and doesn't otherwise intentionally put herself in the newspapers again, it stays that way. But if she "comes back", then someone can bring back the article too, simply by reverting the redirect and adding the "latest" to the article. Is there already a three-letter acronym for that, or did I just make it up? Neutron (talk) 00:20, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I think the closest thing we have is WP:COMMONSENSE. I'm comfortable supporting a redirect on that basis. Stalwart111 00:55, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Works for me. The one thing I think we should not do is set a "precedent" that under these circumstances, policy requires that the article be deleted, or even redirected. I don't think it does. I think the "message" should be, ok, you probably made it "above the line" to public-figure-hood, but if you want to go back under the line and you plan to stay there, there doesn't need to be a "live" article about you on Wikipedia. Just don't take advantage of the courtesy, or it will be withdrawn. (See, by analogy, WP:GAMING and WP:RTV. Neutron (talk) 01:15, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- This "solution" flies in the face of WP:NTEMP. She was public and notable once, she is public and notable forever -at least about the stuff she did when she was a public figure. I oppose the redirect. --cyclopiaspeak! 18:43, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I dont think is about notability. Wp:BLPREQUESTDELETE assumes that the subject is notable, but allows for a deletion or redirection anyway, if the subject is not a public figure and requests deletion. And while notability is not temporary (according to Wikipedia guidelines, anyway), I see no reason why a person cannot cease to be a public figure after some period of years. What I am saying is that, even though I think this subject has made herself a public figure, I am not objecting to treating her as if she is now a non-public figure, unless and until she does something to demonstrate that she is again acting like a public figure. It is really just an unwritten wrinkle of wp:BLPREQUESTDELETE that I think would be appropriate in this case. Neutron (talk) 01:13, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Neutron - I am not sure what precedent you are worried about setting. WP:POLOUTCOMES already mentions and discusses what the common outcomes are for failed candidates to a national legislature. While this is not policy, with regularity there are candidates running for the national legislature or failed candidates that come across as Articles for Deletion. If this were to survive as a keep, we would have to overcome WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE and WP:GNG, since the subject does not meet the automatic notibility standards of WP:Politician. Enos733 (talk) 04:07, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep This is another topic where I can offer a different perspective than what a filtered "Google glasses" view can provide. I've known Theresa for around 20–25 years and interacted with her for many years before that. Many of us who know her really do see her as a good-natured person who means well. However, in remaining neutral about this, many of us also realize that [removed as per WP:BLP] See diff , and has chosen an abrasive, in-your-face approach to being a politician. This, in turn, led to her becoming the Democratic Party's nominee in name only during the 1996 election. Almost the entirety of the state's Democratic political establishment lined up in support of Ted Stevens, and she was outpolled in the election by the Green Party nominee. That, unfortunately, is what she's notable for, even if that notability is really at the level of "local celebrity" (which she certainly is in Anchorage). I can certainly understand if she wants this article deleted, as there is no easy way to whitewash it to conform to the hagiographic standards which dominate biographies on Wikipedia.
- Just some things to keep in mind here:
- She served on the Anchorage School Board, which is elected municipality-wide like the mayor is. In other words, there are only five elected offices in the entire state (the governor, lieutenant governor, and the congressional delegation) which have a larger constituency than this office does. Of the current members, two are former state legislators and one is the husband of the former chair of the Alaska Democratic Party. Two other recent school board members are former legislators, and the office has been a springboard to other political fame on the state and municipal level. In other words, it's not a politically insignificant position, even if there is a black-and-white tendency to automatically regard school boards as such. BTW, the term of office for school board is three years, so the depiction of her serving two two-year terms doesn't really tell the whole story.
- That someone would prefer to make this article a POV fork about her husband is being cited as a reason to delete. There are a lot of articles on Wikipedia which fall under such a category, so get busy. First, there are plenty of sources which discuss Theresa Obermeyer, even outside of the context of her husband's plight. Second, this is truly Don Quixote having to contend with lots and lots of windmills, but even the spectacle we've come to witness doesn't excuse the fact that Tom Obermeyer has had no problem remaining gainfully employed all these years. In fact, he was working as a legislative aide to Bettye Davis immediately prior to her reelection defeat.
- The implication that Obermeyer is non-notable because she's grouped in a template with a bunch of redlinked entries is pretty bogus to me. Gene Guess, John Havelock and Glenn Olds aren't notable simply because no one has gotten around to writing those articles yet? Who are you shitting, anyway? RadioKAOS – Talk to me, Billy 05:02, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Quick point - that's not really what I was suggesting with my comment about the template (I assume that was directed at me given I was the only one who raised it).

- Schoolteachers I think, and there's other more prominent examples like John Atyeo.

- There are enough books out there about FL players that one can safely presume notability from a GNG perspective, however the stuff online is a bit poor (it's out there, simply not reliable enough to include I don't think). If your concern is simply that Mr Wilson played in a 'regional' division then don't forget that he played in the Football League Division Three 1958–1962.

- Comment - WP:FPL doesn't include Football League Third Division North at all. Having 200 appearances doesn't automatically make him notable, and I haven't been able to find significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. I might be wrong, but he doesn't seem to satisfy WP:NFOOTBALL at all. Surely one source isn't enough to prove notability, and I hardly think that a single page from a website providing statistics and information on 100's of players counts as 'significant coverage'. Jdp407 (talk) 16:31, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- @Jdp407: - FPL does include the Football League, which the Football League Third Division North was a part of. GiantSnowman 16:36, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- @GiantSnowman: - As far as I can see, whilst it includes the Football League Championship, the Football League One and the Football League Two, it does not include the Football League, or the Football League Third Division North. Am I correct in assuming these are different things? Jdp407 (talk) 16:39, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- FYI, the Football League Championship, the Football League One and the Football League Two are the Football League; each one is a division, sitting at levels 2, 3 and 4 respectively in the English football pyramid. The Football League Third Division North was the old third tier of football in England and is therefore equivalent to the modern day Football League One. GiantSnowman 16:46, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment (voted above). IN the 1960s and 1970s the Football League had Divisions I-IV. At one stage it was Divisions I & II (which were nationwide) and III N and III S. These were reorganised into divisions III-IV. In a period before TV money created astronomic salaries at the top, these four divisions WERE the professional game. When Divisions I & II became the Periership and the Championship, Divisions III and IV became League I and League II. We really need some clearer guidline in FOOTY as to what articels are permissible. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:50, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- We don't need to change FOOTY in this regard - I have been here for 7+ years and this is only the 2nd or 3rd time I can recall an editor doubting the notability of somebody who had a career in the Football League; and every time it has been questioned, the answer has always been a resounding "notable." GiantSnowman 18:15, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, hundreds of appearances in the football league, meets WP:NFOOTBALL comfortably in my view. The lack of Ghits is to be expected given the era in which he played. Lankiveil (speak to me) 04:38, 15 September 2013 (UTC).[reply]

Deadbeef 06:36, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]- As far as I can tell there is no mention of any other Loki character at Loki(comics) other then the marvel character I fail to see how this is a useful or relevant redirect. Ridernyc (talk) 14:35, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I've reverted it. The problem with the redirect is that the Marvel and Dark Horse depictions are separate characters. Yes, both are based upon the mythological Loki, but that doesn't make them the same thing in and of itself. It wouldn't be a good redirect as they're by separate companies and people.

- Keep but move to its apparent official name Magugpo East. We have reliable proof this district exists, by the inclusion of a Philippines governemnt webpage which says it was legally created by ordinance in 1993. Articles about legally recognised, populated places are generally allowed to remain (according to WP:NGEO). However, there's no proof it's known as Briz and the article will still need proper sourcing to make it suitable. Sionk (talk) 13:02, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect this and Magugpo East to Tagum City. To my recollection, the consensus is that barangays aren't inherently notable unless they receive enough reliable coverage, so what is usually done is to redirect them to their municipality or city.

- Keep—but move to Magugpo East (assuming they are, in fact, the same thing). WP:NGEO says that "Populated, legally-recognized places are, by a very large consensus, considered notable", and this barangay was created by a legal ordinance. Granted that a barangy is the smallest recognizable district, we do have articles on US towns, which, as I understand it, are about the same thing. Livit⇑Eh?/What? 19:15, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - While barangays are indeed the smallest political unit in the Philippine LGC, to my knowledge, barangays are considered by the WikiProject to only be notable if they have been the subject of reliable sources (which is why we have articles for the districts of Manila, such as Sampaloc, Manila, rather than any of Manila's barangays. Note that Manila alone has 700+ barangays, while most cities can have up to 40+). Also, barangays are not equivalent to towns, as a barangay is a subdivision of a municipality or a city, which correspond to cities and town in the United States. WP:NGEO is a good point, however; I'll check the Tambayan Philippines archives if there has been established consensus on the notability of barangays. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 09:41, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - I'll admit to knowing basically nothing about Philippine geographical organizational units, I'm just going off of NGEO and trying to apply it to the situation, and I fully understand the application might need some "tweaking" to get right. Please do check with any relevant projects and let me/us know if there's a consensus or any guidance on this. Your effort is appreciated! Livit⇑Eh?/What? 15:03, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete I notice the linked article on the Dutch Wikipedia was deleted recently as a promotional-sounding article on an unrealised project: [4]. A project could be unrealised and yet notable, but all we have here is sourced to Skyscrapercity.com which doesn't look like a WP:RS. And when completed, it will be an apartment block; the only claim to notability would be perhaps if it was at that point indeed the tallest building in the Netherlands. Until then this looks WP:TOOSOON. AllyD (talk) 06:49, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I found this article via its sourcing, actually. There is an RfC about that particular source that I opened specifically to confirm/deny its reliability because it does appear to be widely used for building projects, especially unfinished or planned ones, despite being a forum site.

Article that relies exclusively on primary sources (and a Google search failed to turn up any better ones either), for a radio station that fails to turn up in either the FCC or Recnet databases. I cannot verify whether it exists under Part 15 or carrier current rules, but either way it isn't a conventional licensed radio station — even its purported call sign, WRAR, conflicts with another station in a different city and state. A radio station in the United States is not entitled to a presumption of notability unless it has an FCC license — an unlicensed station can still become notable enough for inclusion if its sourcing and notability claim are really solid (we do, for example, have some very good, very well-sourced articles about pirate radio stations), but a radio station that has no non-primary sources at all clearly does not meet that standard. There is, in addition, a very real possibility of conflict of interest here, as the article's creator has never contributed anything to Wikipedia at all besides this article.

- Delete/Hoax: Station is a hoax. WRAR-AM and WRAR-FM are both licensed to Tappahannock, Virginia and have been for awhile now. Per WP:NMEDIA, part 15 stations are not-notable, nor are pirates. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 07:34, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I wouldn't say it's a hoax as such; it clearly does exist, and unlicensed stations are allowed to call themselves anything they want. The existence of WRAR Tappahannock just proves that this station is an unlicensed part 15 or carrier current operation that isn't inherently notable; it doesn't prove that this station is a hoax. On the other hand, Radio Aleluya itself seems to be a network of several stations across the United States which air the same programming — other outlets include the duly licensed KQUE and KFTG — so the service might potentially qualify for an article (pending valid reliable sources about it, of course) even if not all of its individual transmitters do.

I accept that this is an unusual article, and it may need to be renamed to Views on the Rise of Rome or Rise of Rome (historiography).

It overlaps somewhat with Roman historiography but is much broader, including modern approaches to the history of the event as well. The main problem with the article is some likely original research per WP:OR and a paucity of references.

I will agree that the article needs work, but that is not a good reason for deletion. As I said above this article is about the views of historians. It should be sufficient to cite what they wrote. There may be works about the historiography of a subject generally, but they are usually rare. However, it is normal to set out some of the historiography of a subject at the beginning of a work on the history. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:21, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The suggestion that it be covered in Roman History seems to be based upon not recognizing the difference between history pf Rome, the study of what happened in Rome, and historiography of Rome, the study of how people wrote about the history of Rome. The suggestion that this is covered in Roman Histography article must have been made with out reading the article, which deals with the ancient ' treatment of Roman history-- Roman history as conceived by the Romans. The discontinuity with modern historical writing is great enough to justify two articles. I hope we will have many more historiography articles, but, as mentioned above, this does need to be more clearly titles. DGG ( talk ) 04:18, 16 September 2013 (UTC) [reply]

This character does not establish notability independent of Magic: The Gathering through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of overly in-depth plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary.

[reply]
- This is a misleading claim. There is only one Bloomberg source given [5] which makes NO mention of SAP HANA. The WSJ one [6] is behind a paywall so I haven't checked it, but seems to be about 'Skunkworks' so not sure what the relationship is there. The Forbes article [7] makes a passing mention of SAP HANA in the context of a bigger article about SAP, and the FT article [8] is by an employee of SAP, so is not in any way a reliable, independent source.--KorruskiTalk 08:12, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep since the product is indeed notable (take a look a Google books, there are about a dozen that cover this in depth and many more mentions), but the article is a mess. Might be easier to start over, although another idea is to remove most of the cut-n-paste text which is written in jargon and replace with English paraphrased from the sources. I could probably help since I am doing all sorts of these now days, but do not want to invest time into something that gets deleted anyway. W Nowicki (talk) 20:38, 30 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I see your point, but I'm not convinced that the presence of third-party technical manuals (which is all I can see in Google Books for this) about a tool is really sufficient to establish its notability, given that it doesn't seem to have any other form of reliable third-party coverage.--KorruskiTalk 08:07, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- KeepThe reason this page is under deletion consideration was because I put advertising/promotion content onto the page. I would like to start by apologizing for what I have done. This was the first time I ever encounters wiki and I have not enough knowledge about how wiki works or runs. My intention was 0% promotion and advertise/marketing is definitely not my purpose to help the page. I have been reading the rules and guides of wiki and I have already removed most portion of my edits. Can I get a second chance to help this page?I will from now on get prove from the help chatroom before doing anything on this page. For the notability issue, I understand that the article does not contains a lot of references, but I do know there are a lot of references exists for this topic. Maybe we can have a references needed (issue warning) on top of the page, but not delete the page that so many people contributed to the page before I do, or wanting to contribute in the future. JunWan (talk) 21:06, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep the fact that this article gets an average of over 30K visits a day (source) implies that this article meets the threshold for notability. Earwig's copyvios tool says that there is 5.4% copyright violation (source), which just isn't enough for deletion of the whole article in my opinion. Technical 13 (talk) 18:23, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Number of visits does not indicate notability, and anyway where on earth did you get 30K from? It looks to me as if the page gets around 1,000 a day. The copyvio is reduced now because I've already deleted reams of text but is irrelevant as it's not a reason to delete - failure to establish notability is.--KorruskiTalk 08:09, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Addressing a comment from above, I do not see why the several books on this subject being technical in nature should disqualify it. Of course it is a very technical product intended for technical customers, so sources on it will be technical in nature. In my opinion, Wikipedia already has a strong bias toward "pop" subjects, with articles on two kids who wrote an app over a weekend being much more plentiful than true technology innovation. What this article needs is to be paraphrased into normal English. Alas, since normal language is not seen as a skill of value to software developers, what we get is filtered through marketeers who have their own way of obscuring any information with buzzwords. There are several articles related that are in bad shape. SAP HANA for example says it is composed of TREX search engine, SAP NetWeaver and MaxDB but those articles do not mention SAP HANA at all, so no idea if nor how they really do relate. And of course it has nothing to do with clouds nor solutions, but every software article now seems to mention those two words. The question seems to be is it worth trying to get this one into shape or start from scratch? W Nowicki (talk) 16:03, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I didn't say that technical sources should disqualify it. My point is that a tool having 3rd-party manuals does not necessarily make it notable per the WP:GNG.--KorruskiTalk 16:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry but still do not follow your reasoning. Why do paper books entirely on the subject not count? Since they are third party, that sure sounds like "independent" to me. And since each entire book is on it, sounds like very "Significant coverage". The fact that they can be found on Google books certainly sounds like easily "verifiable". Perhaps I am old-fashioned, but paper books with reputable publishers seem much more reliable than the wikis and web sites that are used in most other articles. The real issue to me is still that the current article does not use those reliable third party sources! Which is why deleting and re-creating a properly sourced article would also be fine with me. But the subject is notable and needs an article. W Nowicki (talk) 21:22, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment appears to have been the top Turkish/German sniper at Gallipoli, a front known for sniping. Most sources in English deal with his duel against Billy Sing but that doesn't make him non-notable just because he lost. "Abdul the Terrible" is a nickname given by the Australians so we need to research non-English sources which doubtless have something to say about this hero, just as English-language sources say much about Bill Sing. Seems one sided, the winner gets a Good Article, the looser gets a redirect (at best). Both were known in their time for being top snipers, I'm a little suspicious of a winner take all version of notability. --Green Cardamom (talk) 01:25, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- That would be an excellent argument if this were a history textbook, but it's Wikipedia. Unless someone shows that Abdul the Terrible is independently notable, it doesn't matter how we feel about the matter. According to several newspaper articles I found, Billy Sing himself was not notable until recently. With Billy Sing's newfound popularity, perhaps interest will follow Abdul the Terrible, as well. Until it does, there aren't enough reliable sources on him. As far as Turkish sources, there isn't much people on English Wikipedia can do about that. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 19:29, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Google Translate is your friend in AfD. His name translates as "Abdul korkunç". A google search shows few hits. This page[9] says "The real identity is not known with certainty." No apparent tradition of writing about him outside the Bill Sing incident so not independent notability confirmed (probably). -- Green Cardamom (talk) 07:05, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result was SNOW delete. Even if there were no other considerations, it would be perfectly clear that the subjects are not notable: they have no mentions anywhere. However, from posts on various social network sites and wikis and YouTube, it is clear that "Bang Habib" is the name or (more likely) nickname of someone who also goes by the name Said Muqaffa or Said Muqaffa Al-Idrus, and whose posts on those sites strongly suggest that this is someone (perhaps a child) playing around by creating a fake article with his/her name. Eri Satria seems to be a fairly common name, and numerous pages with that name appear in searches, but they are all irrelevant, and none of them refer to the subject of this Wikipedia article. It is also notable that the name "Eri Satria" does appear on quite a number of pages on social network sites and the like which also contain one or the other of "Bang Habib" or "Said Muqaffa". Furthermore, there is no doubt at all that many, perhaps all, of the edits by the creator of these articles are vandalism. On the whole, the evidence so strongly suggests a hoax that a G3 speedy deletion would be not unreasonable, there is such a lack of indication of significance in the article that an A7 speedy deletion would be not unreasonable, and there is such a lack of evidence of notability to be found anywhere that deletion is inevitably going to be the eventual outcome, so a SNOW deletion is the most reasonable step.

I came across this after declining a speedy for a film by one of the directors (Sean Weathers) that contributed to this compilation DVD. I noticed that his films in general have had notability issues to merit their own article and was about to redirect this to Weathers' article when I noticed that there would be an issue in just redirecting to him. There are four films on the DVD, Night of the Living Dead, Driller Killer, Weathers' film, and another film by a director who doesn't have an article. There's no clear place to redirect this to, as we have multiple places to redirect to. Redirecting to Weathers isn't an option since it's a bit misleading since it's not the name of the piece he created. I can't find any sources that really discuss this specific DVD set as a whole to show that it particularly merits its own article. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:57, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- To Tokyogirl79: While we cannot have one redirect going to four different films or their directors, the better option is to either redirect to Weathers as the DVD producer, or have a sourced one-line mention in articles on its separate films saying something like "film name here was re-released September 17, 2013 as part of the Sean Weathers-produced anthology DVD Vault Of Terror. Schmidt, Michael Q. 12:41, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm just slightly worried about doing this in this instance since both of the two movies that are notable are in the public domain and are re-released pretty frequently. We could limit it to the companies or producers that have articles, but that would still be a fairly lengthy list when you get to films such as Night of the Living Dead and Driller Killer. It's fairly common for many companies to make DVD sets with one or all of the films being public domain titles. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:07, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Just a thought for this particular instance. I also imagine that sourced mentions of such for any film included in later compilations would serve readers when the compilation itself has no separate notability. Schmidt, Michael Q. 20:53, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
