Not my field of expertise, but looks like this article created by a company role account of the same name fails to establish notability (but not quite blatantly enough for a speedy deletion). Orange Mike | Talk 23:35, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete spam posted by the company, no financial or employee data to establish notability, just promoting the company, its products an "honors" Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:06, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Academy Award-, ASC Awards, iF product design awards-winning Company => notability. See also Panther (company) and Arri 93.135.115.70 (talk) 13:08, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Incubate As it now exists, the article does not belong in mainspace. It is overly promotional and not encyclopedic. Our IP editor comment above lists awards to establish notability but all were awarded to Peter Denz, not his company. Peter Denz is almost certainly notable enough for a biographical article just based on his awards. The company may also be notable. There are a lot of reviews and articles about Denz products such as here[, [http://www.fdtimes.com/2012/01/04/denz-camera-base-plate-2/ here, here and here. Those seem to be independent sources. An editor(s) interested in the technical aspects of cinematography and familiar with niche publications that may feature the company is/are needed to develop the article. I don't have a crystal ball to predict the eventual outcome, perhaps a redirect to a short section in a bio of Peter Denz or maybe a decent article about a niche company specializing in products for the film industry. The role account (now blocked) did a poor job of writing and sourcing due to her/his COI. There is a potential for an article. DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·ʇuoɔ) Join WER 15:54, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The incubator was closed down some time ago. Alternatives are now WP:DRAFT or userfication. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:26, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The only relevant source is a primary source. Good faith attempt to get a company listed, but otheriwse a COI from someone who probably failed to understand what Wikipedi is/is not, and fails at WP:ORG The article is more about the company ownr than anything else. As Doctree suggests, that person may be notable enough for a BLP, but of course it would need substantial, multiple, independent WP:RS. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:33, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge anything non-promotional and supported into Peter Denz, who does seem to be notable qua Oscar winner, as observed above, but seems to need secondary sources. If a non-COI editor farms it off into its own article, then review it again. AdventurousMe (talk) 16:35, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete this would be a merge to Peter Denz but the only content not on that page I can't find in WP:RS. SPACKlick (talk) 20:22, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - Is there a standard/threshold as to how many songs should be notable themselves in order to keep/delete such an article? I mean, the Beatles example is sitting at about 99% of the listed songs have articles. The one in question is probably closer to 50%. I also wouldn't think the My Chemical Romance article would be a good example of a standard, considering its entirely unsourced. What is the standard for this? Is there one?

  • --Jorge Guerra Pires (talk) 05:35, 20 July 2014 (UTC) Dear all, as some of you have commented, my page is OR, from the page of Wikipedia "...To demonstrate that you are not adding OR, you must be able to cite reliable, published sources that are directly related to the topic of the article, and directly support the material being presented..." did you all really read the article? there are several references in the end for supporting the idea. There are more, but I need time to edit or other users could complemente.[reply]
  • Hm. The more I look at this the more I think it isn't OR. There are many inline citations. Msnicki and Lesser Cartographies what about this article makes you think it is primarily OR? --Pine 07:48, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The giveaway was in the first two sentences: "This is a short paper about Systems Biology and Machine Learning. As a matter of fact, it is pointed out herein the natural synergy between them." There's certainly a list of citations but I'm extremely skeptical that any of them actually state the basic thesis of this article. At best, this may be impermissible synthesis if not pure junk. Msnicki (talk) 08:06, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Pine:: Both machine learning and systems biology are legitimate topics in isolation, but I failed to find anywhere in the primary or secondary literature where they were linked (outside of a couple mentions of molecular systems biology). The topic was, as best I can tell, invented by the author. The citations, such as they are, give examples of how machine learning is used in systems biology, but they don't discuss those techniques as a topic. Lesser Cartographies (talk) 00:20, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Msnicki:: Just because someone is copying their paper into a new article doesn't mean the article is a bunch of OR, although that can be the case. Relying on Lesser Cartographies' independent findings, I will say delete for now, with the possibility that the article can be recreated in a way compliant with Wikipedia policy. --Pine 07:18, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Does citing your own (published) thesis count as WP:OR, or WP:PRIMARY? Regardless, whilst machine learning is used in systems biology, I wouldn't think it is deserving of its own entry any more than Carpentry and Set Squares (or Carpentry and Square Sets). I would recommend writing a summary paragraph, and merging with Systems Biology. U+003F? 08:38, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • the article is a clear WP:OR. The user from his statement above has also violated WP:COI policy. This is an indications that the user is only here to promote his thesis paper. We need to be careful in the use of material as U+003F suggested that it should be merged in is own WP:POV. I don't support such an idea because despite the claim of the user as the author the thesis, we cannot be certain if he his truely the author.

  • If you look in the history of On the Applicability of Computational Intelligence in Transcription Network Modelling, which was an article about the author's master's thesis before it became a redirect to the article in question here, you will see that this thesis appears to be the centre of the author's editing. I feel that he may not have understood that Wikipedia does not publish scientific or philosophical papers, and that the references given in such a paper are not indicators of that paper's notability.

  • Delete as OR. The literature list is not enough to save this article, for two reasons. First, the article is too full of conclusions and opinions for which a master's thesis is not good enough a reference. Second, the cited literature is itself not enough to even establish the notability of this field, since the citation counts for the cited works are too low (using GScholar to measure them, which is usually quite good at finding references in CS-related fields).

  • Keep. Nom seems perhaps mistaken. Explanation for at least one of nominator's complaints is that the name of the company is found in the 2nd, continuation, page of an on-line article, which you wouldn't find in a quick text search of the linked source. E.g. this continuation page of a New York Times article cited in the article provides quote about the company exporting to 24 countries, and actually quite a bit more. I added a direct link to the continuation page into the reference, though the reference was NOT wrong. Also, reference #11 and other references are off-line sources. Off-line sources are FINE, we do not require on-line sourcing of everything. Those sources are in fact verifiable, just requiring more work than simply looking on-line in the open free internet (could well be verifiable behind paywalls, and definitely verifiable at a library with a hard copy). So, although I am not reviewing all the sources to find proof that every assertion is indeed supported, I expect everything is or was supported. --doncram 03:13, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

SilentDan, I have a slightly different take. I am not troubled by your nomination. I applaud your efforts to contribute and I encourage you to continue. I think that the discussion aspect of the AfD process is relatively forgiving and, in fact, often results in improvements to articles. For example, assuming that you are not an "expert" on the particular subject, your understanding is consistent with the vast majority of the readers/users. Accordingly, they may also be confused by the article or its importance and hence I think it is incumbent on the "experts" to heed your comments. Please, remain bold. Your contributions are appreciated.--Rpclod (talk) 13:57, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I am in agreement with Rpclod that SilentDan is to be encouraged rather than admonished. That said, he might be advised to familiarize himself with the pre-deletion process at WP:BEFORE as the number of references in an existing article is not a determinant of the subject's notability (in particular, "D. Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability 1. The minimum search expected is a Google Books search and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects. Such searches should in most cases take only a minute or two to perform."). 24.151.10.165 (talk) 16:49, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Subject might qualify under WP:ACADEMIC but a Google scholar search turned up only a few papers, none of which received more than 6 citations.

This is a POV opinion essay, inherently unbalanced. Fails WP:NOTESSAY. Nat Gertler (talk) 16:31, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am unsure where you are seeing the document as unbalanced. While it references the law, it is not interpreting it. Where there are other related issues which are more subject to bias, they are NOT included. The cross references are all in order.

The intent is to provide information regarding the issue of a historical event. Two non-lawyers present their challenge and attempt to re-secure their constitutional rights. Finding along the way that the Law is nationwide in every state. The law which causes their issue, is the law which mandates a conspiracy of silence within the judiciary. The problem presented is that the judiciary enacted an unconstitutional law, and the way they did it, they have made it illegal to remove their own law because their integrity has been undermined.

This is also not a conspiracy theory. The referenced facts speak for themselves. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TeranceH (talkcontribs) 16:41, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"The problem presented is that the judiciary enacted an unconstitutional law, and the way they did it, they have made it illegal to remove their own law because their integrity has been undermined." That is your analysis of the situation... which is the heart of the problem here. Wikipedia is not a place for your analysis. This piece is full of your statement of your opinion ("The integrity of the court is affected when the judiciary is mandated to injustice without ability to explain."), of quotes that you have selected because you feel they build your case rather than because some reliable third-party source says they're relevant (we can be pretty sure that Alexander Hamilton was not talking about Rule 1.6) Even headers like "The Real Matter" speak to a point of view. This is all a fine and wonderful blog post that you should put on your blog, but Wikipedia is not meant to be a source of individual opinion or original analysis. --Nat Gertler (talk) 16:58, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - This article is an argumentative essay that inherently cannot have a neutral point of view.--Rpclod (talk) 21:13, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and consider speedy. Most of the article appears to be a verbatim copy of a lawsuit filed in a federal court in Pennsylvania. The lawsuit doesn't make a lot of sense (and names as defendants a lot of people having no connection with Pennsylvaina), and there is no evidence it's a notable lawsuit. In fact, the lawsuit was dismissed by the court in 2013 on the ground that the federal court had no jurisdiction to review state-court decisions as the plaintiffs were seeking, and that dismissal was recently affirmed by the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. The introduction to the article also contains fanciful claims, such as that RPC 1.6 (which prohibits lawyers from disclosing confidential information provided to them by their clients, unless an exception applies) was created in response to Operation Greylord in the 1980s, although the duty of confidentiality has been contained in the Canons of Ethics going back at least to the early 1900s. Newyorkbrad (talk) 22:17, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't find a speedy deletion criteria that fits (it would be a bit of a stretch of WP:A11 to make that work), otherwise I'd have marked it for speedy. The article author's username suggests a strong relationship to the case. --Nat Gertler (talk) 22:51, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think this is blatant enough as not belonging that I could justify a pure IAR deletion, but if I'm compelled to check a box, I would indeed go with A11 ("obviously invented"), as this is clearly the page-creator's own frivolous, dismissed lawsuit. Relatedly, I'm not sure which speedy criterion applies to wholesale (but non-copyvio) reproduction of a non-notable, unimportant primary source document, but there certainly should be one. Another alternative would be to get a few more "deletes" to pile up here and declare a SNOW deletion. But having this nonsense sitting in mainspace for a week and getting mirrored is the sort of thing that brings the project into disrepute. Newyorkbrad (talk) 23:31, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • If you feel like flagging it for A11, I'm certainly willing to IAR enough not to delete that tag. I cannot speak for anyone else. --Nat Gertler (talk) 00:50, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've gone ahead and speedied it. It's primarily a copy of a source document, which is not an article at all, and the balance I think does qualify as A11. Newyorkbrad (talk) 13:53, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

While drakes are well known in mythology as dragons, this article presents unsubstantiated claims that the term is also used historically to describe a class of fairies.

  • Comment A pretty old article; but is this incident notable enough to deserve a standalone place. Although there are coverages in seemingly academic sources, these kind of solitary/sole experiences need more, such as an implant or a captured alien artefact. To be sufficiently notable, should have made a lot of noise, like Roswell for instance. French wikipedia and List of UFO sightings coverages look adequate. Logos5557 (talk) 23:48, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • To the closing user/admin In case the decision/consensus is delete, you might consider merging the summarized version into the List of UFO sightings, turning the page into redirect (to the list of ufo sightings) and protecting (to prevent recreation).

  • Keep - Like Necrothesp, I have added another reference.--Rpclod (talk) 20:14, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The management of WP is strongly encouraging us to edit and improve monuments articles with the Summer of Monuments initiative. If the church dates from the 1700's, it's likely notable and would certainly be no question of its notability if this were in the US. Does the initiative not apply to India?.--Oakshade (talk) 23:22, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I would just like to thank Jeff G. ツ for nominating this article. I think that, based on the article's initial condition, his nomination was appropriate.

  • Delete - "An organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources." WP:ORG There is no indication that this organization is subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources.--Rpclod (talk) 21:54, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Please see some of the policy at WP:ATD-M and WP:ATD-R (these are policies rather than just guidelines)., and bear in mind that if school articles are not allowed to be deleted per WP:A7 and only need to be proven to exist, then this article shouldn't even be here at AfD. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:12, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
A7 relates to criteria for speedy deletion and relates solely to "notability". This is not a nomination for speedy deletion. Even for speedy deletions, verifiability and reliability of sources remain criteria. Noq raises valid concerns regarding the latter issues and none of the current references are reliable sources.--Rpclod (talk) 15:18, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I am frankly unsure of the nature of these "educational institutions" that do not 00specifically call themselves "schools" Kudpung, can you enlighten us. Some of them are not mere tutoring academies. And from the description in our article, I think that this one is just that. -- offers course in various unrelated subjects, no indication that it leads to a degree. If it were a secondary school I would of course be !voting "keep", but the bar for tutoring academies is much higher. DGG ( talk ) 20:04, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
DGG, I'm not so sure that it is a mere cram school. It seems to be a lot larger than that and it does offer education to university entrance level. I have changed my !vote to 'Comment'. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:00, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Kudpung, not a cramschool exactly, but a place that offers courses in specific subjects, but not degrees. We've usually defined the sort of school we keep as a matter of course as one that a/has real existence and b/offers a high school diploma, or a college degree. (making appropriate modifications in terminology for the country's educational system). Some people add c/accredited, but I consider that not necessarily a requirement. Of course, there will always be borderline situations, but I think its clear from their website they do not offer anything corresponding to a degree. DGG ( talk ) 18:11, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm inclined to agree with DGG here. Going by this theory, anyone can create a website of a fictional school and a few facebook/twitter pages and come to Wikipedia. Notability must be established through atleast one reliable source. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 07:37, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep With all due respect your opinion whether he is notable or not is irrelevant. Is there a policy that this article does not meet? This article isn't sourced the best but that can be fixed easily. It's not a common thing for a soldier to go AWOL because he opposes to the war.

  • Comment (I'm the editor who created this article by WP:SPLITting from Landship). I would support removal of unsourced info (and the picture?) from the article, but deleting the article would mean that those editors who want info about Gundam etc in wp would (once again) be putting their info into the Landship article. DexDor (talk) 06:13, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge back to Landship. The general concept seems notable enough, but seems to exist mainly in the world of fiction. Real landships tend to be things that have been proposed and/or tried but didn't work out. There is probably enough interest in the topic so that an article would be useful, and it would be better to give the readers the real world info in the same place as fictional info so that they can be better informed. The material about other large real vehicles is also good for background. An encyclopedia is about education after all. (BTW serious SF authors such as Wells and Heinlein were making real-world predictions and/or proposals, not just entertaining their audience.) Kitfoxxe (talk) 11:13, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I think The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) is right when he says that mentioning elements from fiction is not original research (after all, we have an article on the Starship Enterprise!). I also think that Rich is right when he says that adding this article to Landship would overwhelm that article. Finally, are the fictional landships covered in this article notable? Yes, The Land Ironclads, the Traction Cities and the land battleships of Gundam are all notable in their own rights, and the concept as a whole is sufficiently widely mentioned in speculative fiction to be worth including here. Sourcing for the unsourced items should of course be improved. RomanSpa (talk) 04:53, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, and maybe revisit after a year has passed. It is a first article created by a new editor, and wp:BITE applies. Per discussion at the creating editor's Talk page, it was then being created as part of a wikimedia event, the Western Cape Libraries edit-a-thon. The article seems perfectly factual. There are many articles about individual libraries. It can be asserted that "wikipedia-notability" of this particular library is not yet established in the article. So it would be nice if the editor could try to find other coverage of the topic in newspaper or other sources separate from the library's own publications, to add to the article. Is the building historical or distinctive in any way? Anyhow, keep for now. --doncram 01:37, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Here's a small thing that could be added: The library has a monthly "literary tea", e.g. where long-time journalist first-time author Claire Robertson discusses her novel "The Spiral house" (about the tea); the book was favorably reviewed in the Cape Times (copy of review here). So I am sure by the way that there will be multiple mentions of the library in newspapers, at least in calendars for hosting of events like this.
Also, I tried a Google search and found some articles (one involving "Cakes"?) there, but the link from Google goes to the Cape Times website where it wants me to create a one-week trial account. Maybe at this link or maybe that is a temporary link. Someone else could/should search the Cape Times for articles having significant coverage of the library. Given that the new editor probably did not try this, and given that there quite likely is coverage there, I say Keep unless or until someone with access checks and says that the library is not notable. --doncram 01:52, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The vast majority of the references in this article are from one website, MMARising. In order to retain this article, one would need to add references from other reliable sources to demonstrate the notability of the subject. I hope this helps. With regards, AnupamTalk 06:57, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment As the article creator, I abide by the Wikipedia rules and will accept whatever consensus is reached here. I want to comment, however, about why there are more citations from MMARising than other sources. If there is a skew towards that website is because it's a reliable source in English and the English Wikipedia favors sources in this language over others when they are available. The majority of sources that give her in-depth coverage before her UFC signing are in Japanese, and, therefore, are mostly not included within the article.
    On the notability of the subject, I will offer no voted opinion because, being the creator, I have a subjective perception, and I don't plan to add more sources or edit the article more than what I already did in the past to improve it. I was well aware that she may or may not meet the WP:MMANOT criteria depending on how the MMA promotion Valkyrie (where she became champion at the time the article was created) was cataloged (which wasn't or was top-tier for women's MMA, as it was one of only two WMMA promotions before it disappeared). With only English-language sources, I believe she meets the basic criteria of people, but not the basic criteria for athletes, unless one looks deeper into printed and TV media in Japan, which is not easily available even with the Internet. In any case, I see no problem if the article is deleted since there is a MMA wiki where the article can be moved without problems and if she ever meets the current criteria the article can easily be restored. Jfgslo (talk) 19:20, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I notice that she has signed with the UFC although not fought yet. I could suggest you userfy the article and wait until she has had a couple of fights.

Subject is an antiques expert who has made occasional TV appearances, maybe best known (if at all) for co-hosting a BBC2 anittiques series with the more famous Lucy Worsley. The remainder of the sources are not secondary, while his books are largely self-published and I'm unable to find multiple reviews about any one of them.

This article is both about him and by him but it shows they've printed his stuff in the Daily Mail. This is closer to what we're looking for I think. This has more about him and National Antiques Week. This is less about him and more about the program he founded. One more from The Mirror. I'm still not entirely convinced.

  • Keep. Otherwise the lists of churches and temples, such as List_of_Catholic_churches_in_the_United_States and List of Buddhist temples will need deletion too.

  • Keep And cleanup. Article meets inclusion criteria for a list and is part of a bigger scheme of list of mosques by country (see the navigation templates at the foot of the article). I don't think there's any need to have all the external links included in the tables, or linking to each state name 100+ times, but these issues can be addressed on the talkpage. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 16:44, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete There is nothing special about a mosque. Any Muslim can open one. There is no authority (like the Roman Catholic Church for instance) that says one is more important than any other one. Sad to say, the reason an American mosque would become notable (that is of course covered by secondary sources) is if it was involved in some kind of controversy, either involvement of some members in extremism or it being a target of local bigotry. A list of all mosques would be against "WP is not a directory." A list of "notable mosques" would give a false picture of Muslim Americans. The list is not needed anyway since a category can take care of readers' needs. BayShrimp (talk) 19:28, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Note A list of big, landmark mosques would also give a false picture since most Muslims worship in "non-notable" places.BayShrimp (talk) 19:51, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That's not relevant here (nor is "false picture" an accurate characterization regardless, unless the list incorrectly states "these are all the mosques in the U.S."). It is standard for Wikipedia to have a "list of X" limited to notable entries (only those that merit articles) where not every X that exists is notable. Doesn't matter whether it's a list of shopping malls, shoe manufacturers, firefighters, or mosques. postdlf (talk) 23:14, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I kind of view the purpose of an encyclopedia as making people more knowledgeable and informed. A list of notable mosques would inform people who were looking for that information (although it might still be a directory.) But a person wanting to know more about Muslim life in America would end up disinformed if he makes the natural assumption that these notable mosques are somehow representative of Muslim places of worship, especially since in most cases the notability will be accidental depending on what the press happens to report. BayShrimp (talk) 04:13, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think it suffices to say, as a measure of how far that is from policy, guidelines, or consensus, that I've never seen anyone even make that argument here before, that we shouldn't have a list of notable X because someone might draw incorrect inferences from it about the Xs that aren't notable. We list articles we have on various subjects, and so have plenty of lists limited to notable things. Period. See WP:LISTPURP, see the first two sentences of WP:NOTDIR, see WP:CSC. I suppose we should also delete Category:Mosques in the United States for the same reason? Hell, our poor confused reader need not even see a list or category grouping; simply googling "mosque" + "united states" + "wikipedia" could call up listings of just these notable mosques, so perhaps we shouldn't have any such articles at all. Lest this hypothetical person make the "natural" assumption that the mosques we choose to write articles about "are somehow representative" of all American mosques. postdlf (talk) 15:24, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
From WP:Notable: "When creating new content about a notable topic, editors should consider how best to help readers understand it. Sometimes, understanding is best achieved by presenting the material on a dedicated standalone page, but it is not required that we do so. There are other times when it is better to cover notable topics, that clearly should be included in Wikipedia, as part of a larger page about a broader topic, with more context. A decision to cover a notable topic only as part of a broader page does not in any way disparage the importance of the topic." From the article Encyclopedia: "Indeed, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to collect knowledge disseminated around the globe; to set forth its general system to the men with whom we live, and transmit it to those who will come after us, so that the work of preceding centuries will not become useless to the centuries to come; and so that our offspring, becoming better instructed, will at the same time become more virtuous and happy, and that we should not die without having rendered a service to the human race in the future years to come." Quoting Diderot. I agree that it is possible to put together a list based on the 3 qualifications: Mosque, in the United States, and mentioned in some secondary source. However I don't think it helps the purpose of an encyclopedia, according to M. Diderot, and it is not required that we do so, by WP policy stated. Thank you. BayShrimp (talk) 15:50, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
How about an article Mosques in the United States? It could be based on serious sources (like books on the subject) and give accurate information on Muslim places of worship in general, and at the end have a list of the very few historically and/or architecturally important mosques in the US. Not every "notable" one. BayShrimp (talk) 16:01, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If you can find reliable sources substantial enough to write such an article, go for it. But that has nothing to do with whether we should also keep a separate list of all articles we have on mosques in the U.S. postdlf (talk) 17:03, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The list topic is certainly appropriate, but I wonder if this might be a WP:TNT candidate, given how little of it would belong in a proper list. It might be easier to start afresh by building a list directly from the category with AWB or some other automated tool, than to sift through this for the relatively few notable entries. postdlf (talk) 23:14, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • When there is a List of Catholic churches in the United States and this one is put up for deletion, then quote all the rules you want there is just, something wrong with the AfD process. WP:IAR. Anarchangel (talk) 03:14, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • The main difference between the two is that only few churches have no article. Regarding the mosques, only a few have an article. The Banner talk 04:16, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I would also vote to delete the list of all notable Catholic churches. There is the same issue. Once you get below a certain level of importance, notability is more or less accidental. It depends on finding a published source, newspaper story, local history book, or whatever that tells about the church. What you end up with has very little connection with the state of Catholic churches in the USA. I can imagine that more written about cities like New York and San Francisco would have more notable churches, as well as notable mosques. In both cases a category works just as well to help readers find articles. Remember "If an article lies, it must die." BayShrimp (talk) 17:39, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I know WP is not a directory but we have similar lists. Banner, many links are blue, some are red. You can help turn to blue some of the notable ones, or ask the editor (or directly do yourself) to trim what is unnecessary, but better not ask deletion. I prefer to have not-very-well-made-lists to our readers' searching for them -in vain- and thinking that WP has a preference of churches or synagogues or whatever against mosques. I think neutrality policy is more important than the Not-a-directory argument. Regards. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 15:14, 27 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep-but limit to mosques that have an article. A list of notable religious structures is a valid list topic. I'm not seeing a reason to delete as the problem provided by the nominator can be fixed by editing. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 15:27, 27 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, obviously. There are several misguided ideas in comments above, IMHO.
TNT is offensive: First, the call(s) for [wp:TNT]] are offensive I think, as if they are meant to be deliberately insulting, as if to say the work by editors is so terrible it must be exploded. That is mean and unnecessary, and to simply delete the article and start over would violate the spirit and explicit policies of Wikipedia. People's contributions are meant to be credited in the article history. If, outside of wikipedia, someone publishes a list of notable mosques copied from here, they would be obliged to give credit to the article authors. Calling for violating the social contract within Wikipedia, to allow/give editors credit, is inappropriate.
No need to limit to bluelinks wp:Redlinks help Wikipedia grow. Everyone should agree that a list of notable mosques is obviously welcome/needed/valuable. But it is good for lists to include items that don't have separate articles, including both items worthy and not worthy of future articles, per policy and guidelines and practice on lists. One good purpose served by a list like this, by the way, is that it allows for diplomatic redirecting of articles on non-notable items to the list, rather than confrontationally deleting them in the AFD process.

The original list was one big list of external links (just like List of mosques in the United States#Florida with hardly and wikilinks to notable mosques. The Banner talk 21:07, 27 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry if I'm not doing what you think I should be doing. However I do agree that a list of important mosques is obviously welcome/needed/valuable. The problem is that notable does not equal important. Some important mosques will be left off the list and many with very little importance will be included. We WP insiders understand this, but an outsider seeing something titled "List of mosques in the United States" will not. BayShrimp (talk) 17:52, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've undone a non-admin speedy keep closure here. This discussion is not without merit. The nominator was very likely referring to search engine hits on the article topic - indicating a notability problem; and to that coverage being mainly on social networks - indicating a reliance on unreliable sources. In addition, I later mentioned another verifiability issue. The discussion was clearly not started in a perfectly orderly manner, but there's no indication it was a bad-faith nomination, there's a modicum of corroboration, so it's clearly not WP:SK material. No prejudice to another admin deciding to uphold the SK, but I'd like to see a modicum of an explanation for the issues raised before we throw it away. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 22:53, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to have a couple of tracks available via social media or user-provided sites, but found no evidence that he's gigged at the Decibel Festival, or anywhere else for that matter--Google and Songkick seem to come up blank.

The article's references are PR pieces, directory entries and other fluffy and cuddly things, but there is no significant coverage, which is independent of the subject, and is in WP:RS. While the draft was at WP:AFC the sole editor and reviewer was the author. This has not led to a well constructed and well referenced article about a notable person. Fails WP:PROF, fails WP:AUTHOR.

Hi, User:Timtrent. Sitanshu Yashaschandra is notable person in Gujarati literature but there are not many English language sources covering him. I had to use web sources as I cant access google book on my mobile (I edit from mobile phone mostly). If you have problem with notability, he is recipient of Padma Shri 2006, award given by Government of India for notable contributions in related field.(have news source in article) and Sahitya Akademi Award which is the highest literature award(ref of government website). Search in Find Sources: books above. It may confirm that he is notable person. Is it Ok? -Nizil (talk) 17:37, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ok. Here are some sources: 1. Govt if India website archive citing him 2006 Padma Shri awardee 2. One India News citing 2006 Padma award 3.

  • Speedy delete - I couldn't find anything about the building. The address provided is a double-storey house. Lionsgate Films do indeed have an office in Toronto but the sources available suggest they occupy a floor or two of Two Bloor West. Stlwart111 02:58, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • (edit conflict) Delete - I punched up the address listed in the article "97 Burnaby Blvd Midtown Toronto, Ontario" into Google Maps Street View. Although the address is probably real, there is definitely no skyscraper there. I was unable to find verification of the building's existence through cursory Google searches of "Lionsgate Building Toronto", "Cinépix Film Building" and the address in the article.

  • Speedy delete as hoax. As stated above, listed address is a house in Allenby, Toronto. Can't find any results at Emporis. Movie industry production related buildings and structures in Toronto are not located within the uptown, midtown and bits of the downtown parts of Toronto but in Leslieville. As stated by Stalwart111, the official offices are near Rosedale Valley. ///EuroCarGT 03:11, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The article actually says that the building was located at 980 Yonge St and then moved to 97 Burnaby Blvd. 980 Yonge St. is part of a condo building that may indeed have been built in 2000, and at the time when the building is said to have been there, the St. Lucia / British Virgin Islands Travel Office was at that address - but I can find no trace of a Cinépix Film Building, the building cannot have physically moved, the new address is clearly wrong, and the details are all strange - repainting of the building, signs on the doors ... something is indeed wrong here. At best, if not a hoax, the article rests on serious misspellings and misunderstandings and would need totally rewriting. Yngvadottir (talk) 03:53, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. It is reasonable to believe there is plenty of coverage of this company in its history, including off-line sources. The article states it is a company that has existed since 1891. (And apparently it was started in 1891 to provide rugged outdoor boots for Alaskan gold-rushers, per nominator's link to a Kent reporter article). It's "Western Chief" brand, one of its six brands, is quite a major brand. There are reviews of its Western Chief products in major newspapers. There's a 110-year-old Washington Shoe Building in the Pioneer Square area of Seattle which was subject of some controversy in 2000 (see "In Seattle, a Cobbler's Legacy Is Being Repaired", by King, Harriet New York Times, Late Edition (East Coast) [New York, N.Y] 13 Aug 2000: 11.7. Photo of the building was included with the NYT article, including: "Mr. Israel was criticized for decades for letting his buildings decay. Ironically, Samis this summer received bad press when it refused to renew leases in the 110-year-old, six-story Washington Shoe Building at Occidental and South Jackson so that it could start rehabbing the building into apartments or offices. / Street-level tenants -- an antiques store, a picture-frame boutique, an art gallery and a kite shop -- reluctantly moved out. And so did artists who had been living illegally in studios on the five upper floors that were not in compliance with building codes."
Example hits on "Western Chief" and ("boot" or "shoe") in a major newspapers literature search for just recent times:
    • "Catalog Critic: Puddle Protection" by Charles Passy. Wall Street Journal, Eastern edition [New York, N.Y] 04 Feb 2000: W4.
    • "Stormy weather? Take it in stride with spot-on rain boots" by Donahue, Wendy. Chicago Tribune [Chicago, Ill] 06 Apr 2014: 23.
    • "50 UNDER $50 Put the light in someone's eyes with gifts that won't lighten your wallet too much" Anonymous. New York Daily News [New York, N.Y] 11 Dec 2008: 28.
I expect that searches of historical newspapers would provide more, and that as a major company there will be plenty in Seattle histories. I'll stop with this much found by me, for now. --doncram 20:45, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Did just track this down, re: a seemingly notable court case they were involved in. SeattlePI, 2. Their old building itself is moderately notable, Zynga now has its engineering center there per GeekWire plus its age and historic stats. All I can find on the actual company is an article noting they have a contract with Warner Brothers to release licensed boots and the already linked article from the Kent Reporter. But I suspect no matter how much googling I do, without access to an archive of historic paper I'm unlikely to find anything. Also, their own website is not working for me at all. JTdale Talk 15:20, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the information. I added a section on the court case to the article, and Washington Shoe Co. v. A-Z Sporting Goods Inc. now redirects to that. I added other info to the article, may add about the significant building as another section, too. I continue to believe that there is extensive coverage, in total, over 120 years, mostly not online, about this company, in addition to the building and courtcase topics (each of which could merit an article) so it is best to simply Keep the article, covering them all. --doncram 21:45, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This 1916 book, History of Seattle from the Earliest Settlement to the Present Time, Volume 2 says " SHOE FACTORY The Washington Shoe Manufacturing Company was incorporated January 24, 1891, with L. B. Allain, president; T. J. Thorsen, vice president and general manager, and G. M. Barber, secretary. This company opened Seattle's first real shoe factory at 807-09 Western Avenue, where it had installed modern machinery. By devoting its energies toward the making of high grade heavy boots and shoes, designed especially to meet the requirements of the outdoor workers of Western Washington, it soon built up a good business. Other grades of shoes were added and within five years the company had found it necessary to seek larger quarters at Second Avenue South and Jackson Street. The company now occupies a large factory building in the south end of the city and its product is sold all over the northwestern states." which is significant coverage of the company. 98 years later, the company is still in business.

Article fails the general notability guideline and WP:WEB and ultimately should not have an article. However, it does not qualify for an A7 as it makes a claim of significance and my PROD was contested. There appears to be no sources other than the social media and iTunes links, which are primary sources and cannot be used to demonstrate notability.

I don't remember seeing an RFC about it, but if the threshold for high-level diplomats is now GNG then I'd rather not have a say in this AFD. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 05:30, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that it's very much overdue for resolution and wish I knew whose ass to light a fire under to get it done, trust me. But even when it was an active guideline, it still didn't confer an automatic presumption of notability on all diplomats regardless of the quality of sourcing that was actually present. Bearcat (talk) 05:33, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
no, ambassadors are not inherently notable, in fact several articles have been deleted. LibStar (talk) 13:21, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Per generally accepted outcomes, a diplomat at this level is notable if they are actually the subject of sufficient reliable source coverage to get them past WP:GNG — but is not entitled to keep an unsourced or primary sourced article just because they exist. Bearcat (talk) 05:25, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NPOL is not the standard that a diplomat has to meet — that guideline's exclusion of diplomats means that it's not the test by which the notability of a diplomat is measured, and not that diplomats are never considered notable. Rather, until the dispute over the separate notability guideline for diplomats is resolved, a diplomat has to pass WP:GNG, not NPOL. She still doesn't meet that one either in the article's current form — but NPOL is not applicable to diplomats one way or the other, so failing to meet NPOL has nothing to do with anything.

I was close to nominate this article for speedy deletion under WP:A9, but then I noticed that it does have some assertion of significance. I still think that it should be deleted because it lacks Notability. The article claims that the album debuted on #6 on the "independent charts", but does not explain what charts, nor does it cite any source. By the way, it seams that the article is written by the artist himself. Vanjagenije (talk) 00:18, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
