The result was merge to Feminist movements in the United States. The first merge !vote recommends merging Feminist movements in the United States into this article, but the remaining merge !votes appear to be for vice-versa. While the sole keep !vote is also valid, ultimately, consensus here is for a merge of this article into Feminist movements in the United States.

  • Delete – he is an illustrator of numerous books but I can find no independent biog or multiple reliable sources on him to show that he is notable or in any way special. The article (technicalillustrators.org) noted above contains only a short description para then lots of self-referencing text from Simpson. The Wired site linked in his article again only shows some of his illustrations, with no mention of who he is, or how important he is in his field. Acabashi (talk) 16:13, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested on the grounds that he is part of the first team of Brøndby IF. Since he has not played, however, this does not confer notability.

  • Keep Comments from the teams football director are clear that he's been made part of the first team with the expectation of playing [1] as such it's almost certain he will play and meet WP:NFOOTBALL. The season starts in 14 days, it's a waste of time and energy to delete an article that would very likely be recreated in a few weeks. There's no rush to delete this article before then. There are no firm rules that say this article needs to be deleted before we see happens, and there is WP:NORUSH. This article remaining in place for a few weeks does no harm, so let's show a bit of WP:COMMONSENSE; if something bizarre happens over the summer, the article can simply go to AFD at that time.

  • Comment On 19 June 2014 the nominator PRODed some 50+ Hillsong-related articles see here. From 21 June I noticed this list and that some 10+ of these PRODs were charting albums at either ARIA or Billboard. I have gone through more of the 50+ list and added sources where possible and dePRODed any that I felt had a reliable source for their existence. I was hoping to get time to supply further sources to attempt to establish notability. With so many articles to research this is not necessarily achievable in a short time-frame. The nominator has sent most of the dePRODed articles straight to AfD. I ask for time/assistance in actually searching for sources to support the articles' notability.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 10:16, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A TV show is media in its own right and thus a source in its own right. It doesn't need further written sources to back up its content. -- Necrothesp (talk) 20:25, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
But when it comes to a BLP, everything needs to be sourced, you can't just rely on the series wikipedia article. LADY LOTUSTALK 20:49, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not relying on the article. I'm relying on the series, which as I said is a source in and of itself! Do you actually think there's any difference in reliability between the broadcast credits of the series saying Ruth Kearney played Jess Parker and a written source saying she played Jess Parker? Of course there isn't. They're both reliable and acceptable sources. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:32, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree. Associations between people can be important; would Barbara Bush be notable, if not married to George H. W. Bush? A subject's friends, family, spouses, partners, and so forth can have a powerful impact on whether a person becomes notable. That Ruth Kearney dated a star who has become quite famous is, like it or not, part of RK's notability. It means her name will come up more with talent agents, reporters, and she will get more roles and attention as a result, not only in magazines and by fans, but by movie directors, TV casting agents, etc.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 22:53, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Ruth Kearney will be recurring in US show Tyrant and played a major character in Primeval. My concern is that the Delete requests for her page have been made due to the hate she has been getting due to her aforementioned relationship with Theo James. There are a faction of "Sheo" fans who would like nothing more than to see all traces of Ruth and her relationship with TJ erased from the Internet. To delete her page purely for reasons relating to her relationship is reminiscent of cyber-bullying and should not be tolerated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.78.110.254 (talk) 14:14, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As well as starring as Jess Parker in Primeval for two seasons - a main character for those two seasons - Ruth Kearney has also starred in Jet Stream, a made for TV movie, and One Day, a short-film adaption of the novel of the same name. She has an upcoming role as Katharina in FX's Tyrant as well. Smaller roles include two episodes of Holby City, a popular UK medical drama and is credited in the film Fast Freddie, The Waitress And Me as being The Waitress. These are alongside her numerous theatre roles and her background as a Bristol Old Vic graduate. details listed here — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlexaP-83 (talkcontribs) 15:34, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The fact that this has even been flagged as a page to be deleted shows how far some people are willing to go to try and indulge in their fantasies that Ruth Kearney does not exist so that their idols are free to be together. Whether the OP is aware of that or part of that movement, I cannot say and will assume for arguments sake that s/he is not. I will, however, ask the Wiki Admin who reviews this to acknowledge that there is currently a pointless hate campaign being waged against this actress that may or may not be linked to this request. Ruth Kearney deserves to keep her wikipedia page. She not only played the fan-favourite role of Jess Parker in hit ITV and BBC America show Primeval, she has played the role of female lead in 2013 film Jet Stream and will be guest starring in FX's Tyrant in 2014. Connection wise, she is dating actor Theo James and is the sister of Fashion Stylist Mary-Anna Kearney. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.68.70.117 (talk) 19:09, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Irish Actress Ruth Kearney has appeared in a number of television shows and movies including Jet Stream in 2013 as well as 2 seasons of Primeval for which she and the show have a cult following. She is currently working on the highly-publicized FX network show, Tyrant, on which she will have a recurring role. She can be seen talking about Primeval here: [1] She was also recently in a commercial for HSBC Bank which can be found here: [2] Her IMDB lists a dozen credits as an actress and her agent's website also lists these projects. It can be found here: [3] Ruth continues to have a cult following as evidenced by blogs such as this: [4] and this: [5] Photographs of Ruth attending Comic Con 2011 in San Deigo were featured on Zimbio. [6] Sources proving Ruth's role in Jet Stream: [7] [8] While dating a popular actor might not qualify Ruth Kearney for a Wikipedia page, surely it does not warrant deleting her page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mel7190 (talkcontribs)
  • Keep She is an up-and-coming actress. She should have information available for the roles she has already played and for information on future roles she will receive. If the argument is that her entry should be deleted simply because she has not had many notable roles so far, then why aren't other actors who have not had many notable roles (such as her co-star in Primeval, Ben Mansfield) having their Wikipedia entries up for discussion for deletion? It seems to me, as noted above, that this is stemming from a vendetta of a small faction of people who dislike her simply because of whom she may or may not be involved with romantically. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:2:380:2f5:98ec:2860:ec6c:87a5 (talkcontribs)
  • Keep She is a young actress who can be seen in multiple projects, including guest spots on TV series (including Covert Affairs and this summer's Tyrant) and a leading role in the UK series Primeval. I can't see that there is any logical reason to delete her page when she has as many credits to her name as many other young actors. Sadly, I agree with the other posters who have pointed out the ill will towards her because of her private life. That is certainly not a valid reason to delete her page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.227.203.204 (talk) 03:19, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Looking through the links listed, I'm sorry to say that they don't add to notability- Zimbio is not reliable, I'm skeptical about "Radio Times", YouTube and Tumblr are not accepted as valid sources, Amazon can't really be used for anything other than release dates of products. I'm also seeing WP:ILIKEIT arguments, which frankly aren't convincing. We're not trying to "deny" or "erase" her existence by listing her article at AFD. What we would need is reliable third-party refs giving significant coverage, and she has not received much coverage from reliable third-party sources. SNUGGUMS (talk · contribs) 03:26, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm new to this & not sure what reliable, third-party sources would be. Zimbio is essentially a photo warehouse, but can't be relied on to say who & where? The you tube is posted by the bank whose commercial she appeared in & the tumblr where posted simply to show she has a cult following even several years after Primeval ended. Her agency posted an announcement of her current work in Tyrant which is airing in the next few weeks on their website & tweeted about it. This is reliable IMO, but not 3rd party. Primeval was pretty popular outside of the USA & still has a following as does Ruth as evidenced by her fans that showed up her as well as a number of websites & blogs. She's a young, working actress.
The tumblr links can't be used because those particular ones are fanpages. Fansites/fanpages are not considered reliable. If it was her own tumblr, it could be deemed reliable but would be a primary source. Primary sources (including interviews) can be used in articles but do not add to notability. Family and friends are not primary sources, but aren't third-party. A third-party ref (in case I wasn't specific enough) is a ref not closely affiliated with subject. For example, sources like Entertainment Weekly or CBS News giving news reports on a person would constitute third-party coverage. I'm not entirely sure why YouTube is generally rejected, but a video clip of a commercial is not exactly coverage on a person. So far, she hasn't got much third-party coverage.

I'm already pretty angry with the way this guy's gone about promoting himself: using four accounts (Silviu Alexandru Mihaila, Sebastianandrei, Loyd Sebastian and Martin Harlow), he's persistently removed speedy-deletion tags. The latest is that he tagged my talk page for deletion. Definitely seems to have that opera-diva personality.

Anyway, let's look at the sources he's put up in his autobiography, other than his own website and CV.

  • Delete I cannot find a single shred of evidence that Mr. Mihăilă passes any of the GNG guidelines in any field. The "sources" used are laughable, and none other are to be found -- as a Romanian speaker, I've had a glance, just to be sure. For sure Mr. Mihăilă can come back if he has a more notable presence in his field, which is entirely feasible -- he is just beginning his career; but maybe then he will be busy enough to allow someone other than himself to write the entry.

  • Delete I went through each of the sources as well and concur with nom. There is a serious lack of sourcing of any form for the subject of the article, excepting the usual social media sorts. @Sebastianandrei: the issue isn't that he is or isn't a good singer. He could be the next Pavarotti or Bocelli for all we know. Our personal opinions count for nothing. What counts is that there is solid reliable sources that reflect what is written into Wikipedia. Taking your examples of Bieber and Gaga, the reason they have substantial articles is that there is extensive sourcing of them. The important part of the sourcing is that the source devotes substantial coverage to them or are entirely focused on them. If it mentions them in passing, as was the case in 2 of your sources, then that does not count. The other part of the problem is probably that many of the sources which would be considered reliable are in Romanian and would not show in an English only search. Non-english sources are perfectly acceptable in some cases, so if you or perhaps someone from WikiProject Romania are able to obtain such reliable sourcing then there may be a change in consensus. Blackmane (talk) 09:35, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment With a cursory search of Romanian sources, I was able to verify that coverage of Mr. Silviu Mihăilă is lacking there as well. There are a few hits to his facebook account, a self-promotional article he wrote in a local newspaper, some passing mentions, and that's about it. Note that the search overlaps with results for another Silviu Mihăilă, who is a young academic and author of works on literary history (and who has marginal notability, in any case more that the very young opera singer). Puff-piece from a Romanian perspective as well. Dahn (talk) 11:39, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I could agree with that argument if substantial sources could be found. But in my research I found only information that leads back to pages created by the subject such as Linkedin, Facebook etc. Third party sources are lacking for this subject and I am afraid he simply does not fall into the guidelines for notability.

  • Delete - The notability of the subject does not inherit notability from a company that he founded.

  • WTF? Delete per WP:1E, WP:NOTMEMORIAL and who knows what else – I can speak with some authority about the early days of the People Mover and some of the people involved. Bill Barnes, who helped organize the system, was known throughout Alaska for his civic and political activism during his retirement. Among drivers, Norbert Skinner served a term in the Alaska House of Representatives during the 1960s while working at Clear Air Force Station. "Singin'" Sam McDole drove the Mountain View route for years and years, repeatedly singing "King of the Road" and a few other songs to his passengers. This garnered him some publicity and he also released recordings, including an album recorded in Nashville. Dave Alward was noted as a member of a Matanuska Valley Colony family. Several others were celebrities-of-sorts to the People Mover constituency, but probably not worth mentioning here. OTOH, I have no recollection of this person or the incident.

Promotional article that fails WP:ANYBIO. Johny 547 (talk) 09:30, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete - I don't know what the author was thinking about, but this is evidently very poorly sourced indeed, relying extensively on an interview in a music blog, but also record slevenotes, a press release and other unreliable sources. If he's "Best known as the co-founder of ticket management company CrowdSurge" then I don't know how people found out, because I can't find any reliable, independent coverage about this. The only saving grace is the LA Times article which, though primarily about music firm, SQE, at least has a small amount of background info about Webber. Sionk (talk) 10:14, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Being on a list of 30 people isn't a "well-known and significant award or honor". Neither does a government company listing demonstrate that this company has any note (or indeed if it is the same Seb Webber). The only question is whether the snippets of news/photo interviews are significant enough for WP:GNG. Sionk (talk) 12:29, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I listened and reacted. You see "30under30" as non-significant, but accept that he may pass under WP:GNG. I'll respect that, but note that Billboard in the music world is not an also-ran publication, and nor do they publish 30under30 more than once a year - plus how many Brits get on it? Secondly re CrowdSurge, that "government listing" paperwork (fully court authorised in the UK, so a highly reliable source) shows up Benjamin Bronfman as a second stage investor. Thirdly I added two extra refs re CrowdSurge and TicketMaster, and then an FT ref re Blavatnik's buy in (latter pretty short, but there). Rgds, --Trident13 (talk) 14:17, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe this subject has significant coverage. I believe the reliable sources are very limited and just from the initial arguments made, seems to be almost all newspaper coverage and does not pass the criteria for multiple sources. The last part of this I believe is also a concern that there may be a presumption of notability due to what one believes to be significant coverage in one particular medium, while there may be a presumption of notability it is not guaranteed.

After a review of the links left by the editor to attempt to demonstrate notability, I am convinced this does not pass criteria. Many of the links are doubles of the same story and only one is detailed about the subject himself. The Google book search only resulted in a single page on my browser and the scholar search only showed three results. I believe this article fails notability for a stand alone and should have the relevant content merged to the Iolani Palace article and Washington Place article.

Support a merge and delete for the above stated reasons.--Mark Miller (talk) 08:55, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • not sure; slightly leaning towards keep, but maybe merge would be better

I wondered if that would be brought up, and technically that should not have been accepted for DYK as there was a copyright issue still there after it passed. See the article history. The sources that were found can be distilled down to two events, his death and the throne incident that seems to be the most noteworthy event and seems to be based on criticism of a living person and could violate BLP policy.--Mark Miller (talk) 18:48, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As I stated, the criteria speaks directly to the situation of multiple sources from one medium like newspapers where the stories are repeated and this is the case here. Really, only two events are represented in those sources as stated above. This may well be borderline as Piledhigheranddeeper mentions so it may well go either way, but I feel that the article was treating the subjects unfairly and the article was not neutral. I am surprised that passed so easily but I think the novelty of what was being noted over shadowed the more POV direction the article had originally taken. Not sure if this can be expanded much and if AFD fails I can't help but think this article will likely be nominated again by someone else in the future.--Mark Miller (talk) 18:48, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, not an encyclopedic article and not supported by reliable sources. Whatever is needed can be upmerged into the article on the book.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:00, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, as above, this should not be its own article. However, the inclusionist in me would like to retain some of this information if it can be verified - would there be any objection to putting it in some nested collapsible tables or something in the main article?

  • Delete. Not notable. This press release does not merit conversion to a proper article. Offers no sourcing other than firm's own website. Essentially zero RS coverage, let alone anything substantial. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 01:14, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result was speedy deleted as blatant hoax. Not listed in FIDE ratings at all, let alone as GM. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:56, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The person seams unnotable. Google returns some hits [10], but almost all are result lists, no significant coverage. The sources given in the article either just mention the subject in passing, or do not mention him at all. Vanjagenije (talk) 00:03, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - This is a hoax. Could probably be speedied. He claims grandmaster, but the sources show that not only is he not a grandmaster, but he is actually quite a weak player by competitive standards (playing in an U1400 section means you aren't even allowed to have a FIDE rating, which is used for titles like "grandmaster"). --— Rhododendrites talk |  01:58, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
