Sadly, the article is heavily dependent on WP:INHERITED and, while the person has been making positive contributions to music for decades, this has not translated into the recognition or coverage to meet WP:BIO or WP:CREATIVE. He can be sourced within the article on The Young Dubliners as a member,[1][2] but there is not enough in any independent reliable source to support a separate article.

This entire article is summed up in a line from the XH558 page: "It is operated by the Vulcan to the Sky Trust as a display aircraft, funded entirely by charitable donations and the UK Heritage Lottery Fund."

Contested PROD. Fact is, the article is about a tennis competition which fails the article guidelines of the tennis project. It states: "from 2008 onwards the ITF Women's $50,000–$100,000+ tournaments are considered notable. From 1978–2007 the threshold for notability in the women's ITF circuit is a $25,000 event." The "Izida Cup" is not applicable, as it only became a $25,000 event after 2007 (in fact, the tournament only started in 2009 as a $10,000 competition). As a note, any player winning a 25K event on the ITF Women's Circuit would also not be notable. Jared Preston (talk) 06:55, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect, probably to ITF Women's Circuit#List of events. [changed from Keep or Redirect]. I removed the PROD; i am not connected to the article and don't recall how I came to notice the PROD. But I don't like the brightline rule asserted to by a WikiProject's guideline (which is merely an Essay, not a Wikipedia policy or Wikipedia guideline) in the deletion nom, that X dollars is okay for a 2007 event but not for a 2008 or 2009 event. That rule is okay for guiding a Wikiproject's article creation process, but WikiProject guidelines don't control notability; wp:GNG policy does. Here, NO ASSERTION of wp:BEFORE has been made, i.e. no search has been done for GNG sources? And, why not respond to this request for discussion at the article talk page? Okay, well, this AFD is open now, that is the response i guess. But, at a minimum even if GNG not met by sources when searched for, redirecting to some List of ITF Women's Circuit events would be better than eliminating this article. The redirect would preserve the edit history and allow for recreation of article if/when GNG is clearly met. We have obligation to editors to preserve credit for work done. Unnecessary deletions destroy credit, drive away editors, undermine success of the project. :( Keep or redirect: good; deletion bad. Especially when no research done. --doncram 01:54, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Addendum: I created List of ITF Women's Circuit events, List of ATP Challenger Tour events, and List of ITF Men's Circuit events, and updated the Tennis wikiproject's notability guideline essay to link to those. Lists provide useful complement to corresponding categories and navigation templates, per wp:CLT. --doncram 11:49, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Also, note that del nominator's comment: "As a note, any player winning a 25K event on the ITF Women's Circuit would also not be notable" is not true. They may not be assumed by the wikiproject to be automatically notable, but I am sure that most top women tennis players are winners of ITF Women's Circuit tour events, and are quite notable! Likewise, the wikiproject guideline essay establishes that the wikiproject deems some but not all events to be automatically notable, but cannot be taken to mean that others cannot be notable. --doncram 12:02, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think I may have been understood. Of course the likes of Maria Sharapova, Serena Williams et al are notable even if they didn't win such a tournament. In fact, they have won higher-ranked tournaments! Obviously I am talking about automatic notability, and since there is barely any prose in the article of the tournament in question (as admittedly there isn't about many tennis tournaments, but there you go...), there isn't much savable about it. Even if the article was deleted, it could be restored if the event was to be notable in the future. Anyway, there is nothing generally notable about the Izida Cup. It is one of the second lowest-ranked tournaments on the women's professional circuit. Our (WikiProject Tennis) guidelines are by no means policy, but as far as it comes to inner-project guidelines on the creation of articles, they are very clear. Nothing here retrospective, even when the article was created in 2011 – the event wasn't notable. Many of the creator's articles on tournaments were deleted for this reason, but that too is beside the point. Redirect it if you like, I'm also not really bothered, but as our colleague Fyunck(click) (talk · contribs) quite rightly once pointed out, if some new user were to see this article, he/she may think that other $25,000 ITF tournaments are notable too, and create a shed-load of similar ones, but they are not. My final say on the matter, in case that was a question aimed in my direction, why I didn't source the article to try to keep it, is why should I? It's not notable whatever source I find to cite a claim in the article. It's just a line of information about what's in the infobox with a list of former winners, who, of course, aren't all even notable themselves. So, if someone wants it (the article) kept, then they should show it really does meet the trump-all WP:GNG. Jared Preston (talk) 20:34, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay i think this is ready to be closed as Redirect. I think no one wants to develop the Izida Cup article, and I accept Jared Preston's view it's probably one of the least important events. I think Izida Cup can be represented just by its entry (with a reference) in ITF Women's Circuit#List of events, and Izida Cup can be redirected to there. Meeting GNG is not required to be a list-item. Any other mini-stubs on ITF Women's Circuit events could be merged and redirected the same way, without being PRODed or AFDed, saving the original edit history in case someone chooses to develop more with GNG-type sources. --doncram 19:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I would disagree with a redirect. I could be wrong but I think most (if not all) these tiny non-notable tournaments get deleted, not redirected. Maybe someone can check on that. They also get fully listed at places like 2013 ITF Women's Circuit (January–March) and don't really need separate lists. The created List of ITF Men's Circuit events is simply a redirect. And there are reasons why limitations were put on the ladies $25,000 tournaments that are too detailed to get into here. You are correct about GNG always superseding any guideline/essay. The trouble is that using GNG would probably also disallow almost all ladies ITF events...even if they're $100,000 tournaments. We have gone over and above to lower the standards of inclusion to $35,000 and above, so that 99.9% of the time there is simply no question of it being notable. Exceptions always happen... that's the wikipedia way and why we have GNG policy to take care of those exceptions. This tournament is not one of the extremely rare exceptions. Unless the ITF changes this tournament's status it will never become notable. And the $35,000/$50,000 limit will probably be increased in the futures since it coincides directly with the value of the men's events. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:50, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, about the women's ITF events it doesn't seem right to have multiple articles for some date-tournament-specific tournaments, say 2013 Blossom Cup, e.g. 2013 Blossom Cup – Singles and 2013 Blossom Cup – Doubles, and to have all of the events listed in list-type articles like 2001 ITF Women's Circuit, 2002 ITF Women's Circuit, etc. Why not keep those year-specific list articles but why not also have tournament-specific list articles? It is the same material organized differently. If the year info is notable, then the same info can be organized by tournament. And, the tournament articles can naturally collect appropriate references. If a given tournament is truly not notable, or just occurred one or two years, then it can be redirected to a list of the tournaments. The list of tournaments has links to separate tournament articles and the short info for a given non-notable tournament can be included there.
Likewise, for men's ITF events, it seems crazy that all the tournaments like "Great Britain F1 Futures" and "Israel F1 Futures" are itemized within date-specific list-articles 2010 ITF Men's Circuit (January–March), but there is no place one can see which years the "Israel F2 Futures" event occurred. It seems natural to list the men's tournaments and briefly give that info, e.g. *Israel F1 Futures" - 2010 with reference to Israel F1 Futures 2010 event at ITF tournament info, -2011 info etc. You're correct to note that i hadn't yet built out the list of men's ITF events, but now it is started at List of ITF Men's Circuit events (which is a section within ITF Men's Circuit.
This approach to listing the tournaments actually serves better than the scattershot approach of having some tournament articles and not others. Now there can be a place to cover each tournament, either in a separate article or as an item in a list.
Frankly the slavish treatment within Wikipedia of excessive detail in all the tennis events, usually just copied / sourced from ITF official pages -- as in 2010 ITF Men's Circuit (January–March), etc. -- seems non-encyclopedic. I think it would be better to strike out all the drawsheet type info from the Wikipedia articles, as it is available online anyhow, e.g. this drawsheet info in the ITF page for one tournament. That's the real problem, not the existence of short encyclopedic articles on specific tournaments. Again, i am for redirecting this Izida Cup item to the appropriate list of tournaments section. --doncram 16:40, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The last vote above states preference for deletion rather than redirect on basis that "but I think most (if not all) these tiny non-notable tournaments get deleted, not redirected. Maybe someone can check on that". Well, previously there was not a proper redirect target. Now there is, the List of ITF Women's Circuit events. So, redirect now makes sense. --doncram 23:50, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: subject of the article clearly fails WP:GNG. I found nothing to establish its notability. I have no Idea of how a subject that is obviously non-notable will suddenly become notable because some of its content is written in arabic. Rewritten those content in english cannot make him notable. WP:No amount of editing can overcome a lack of notability. Wikicology (talk) 01:59, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment-That is true-there have been a few cases where the articles are linked to another language so then its "oh wow they are notable then" when in fact it is nearly the same case.

    Comment: The writer isn't notable because they have an Arabic wikipedia page, what I wrote was that on that page there seem to be references by reliable Arabic newspapers. This makes the writer notable, also for the English language wikipedia as per WP:BIAS. It's a very basic thing really. I see WP:GNG being used as an argument. I quote from WP:GNG: "Sources do not have to be available online and do not have to be in English." - Takeaway (talk) 02:12, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment:I don't think is a good idea to assume that they are automatically notable here. I search through with his name in arabic, I see nothing than facebook, twitter, is own personal work and few RS. All of which are insufficient to pass WP:GNG here. I assume, there are more stringent in the English wikipedia than any other languge wikipedia because few people participates in those project, which could retard information verification by editors. In addition the source used in that language (Arabic Wikipedia) by the author of the article might even be entirely primary sources. This is an english wikipedia, all references must be provided to support every claims. Since he already have an article in Arabic wikipedia, I think that's ok for him. Every information there can be translated for use in english by its reader and not necessarily having an article here. But let see how it goes. Wikicology (talk) 02:39, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Please understand, for the 3rd time I state: look at the references on the Arabic Wikipedia article and don't try looking for stuff in a language and writing that you don't understand. In the article in the Arabic Wikipedia, one can clearly and easily see that the references used are by Al Riyadh (newspaper) here, and by Al Watan (Saudi Arabia) newspaper here. And I also found this article by Al Watan. I really have no idea how you did your search because it is strange that nothing significant showed up with you. Apparently, even while I don't read Arabic at all, I have a nose for finding stuff which apparently, you don't because I found a large amount of Google results that are not at all "only facebook and twitter". I am also of the opinion that people who are unable to read Arabic, should not be involved in getting this article deleted. We just lack the ability to form a well-balanced opinion on this writer's notability. And as for expressing your personal opinion that "Since he already have an article in Arabic wikipedia, I think that's ok for him.", it is just that: a personal opinion, and not Wikipedia policy. If the writer is notable, he is notable also for the English Wikipedia. One more ref I found is this book review by Al Jazeera. Takeaway (talk) 04:22, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment Having a page on another language Wikipedia doesn't make a topic notable.

  • Keep Takeaway has found four in-depth sources in Arabic. I am One of Many (talk) 05:30, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There seems to be a transliteration problem. Searching under the English title of one of his books, I find that Library of Congress transliterates his name as Mundhir Qabban̄i -- see the author listing for him and the VIAF listing. (although I do not read Arabic, I do know that "al" is a frequent prefix to names and that the names also need to be searched without it; I also know there's frequent variability in transcribing a arabic letter as either K or Q). I see his books have 56 WorldCat library holdings, which is significant for current Arabic fiction in the limited geographic distribution of libraries covered by worldcat . I suggest the article be moved to the LC version as a standard, on the basis of the VIAF record DGG ( talk ) 18:04, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actor who is basically in a bunch of unotable roles. Too soon if ever Wgolf (talk) 23:05, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: Actor seems notable in Albania and apparently also in surrounding countries such as Serbia, Macedonia, and Bosnia, especially as a stage actor (see http://gazetablic.com/nuk-ka-asnje-parti-politike-qe-te-mos-kete-influence-ne-teater/ , http://gazetajnk.com/?cid=1,975,742 , and http://www.zhurnal.mk/content/?id=1312131172027). - Takeaway (talk) 01:23, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: article should be expanded to show his notability as a stage actor. - Takeaway (talk) 01:25, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Takeaway-Thats true-the article makes it sound like he is a film only actor which is why I put that up there, and then seeing he was just basically a extra in unotable films seemed like a complete waste of space. Wgolf (talk) 01:27, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment-I did make the format better for the refs (and took out the link for the film and just kept his own IMDB page up) Wgolf (talk) 01:32, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Çomment: In J.A.C.E., at least if I have understood it correctly from one article about him in Albanian, he was one of the nominees for best actor at the Tokyo Film Festival in 2011 but didn't win, so not really just an extra. In the notable film Lorna's Silence, he is also one of the main actors. - Takeaway (talk) 01:35, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    -Ha okay, I guess it was just not a well written article! At least I did manage to catch this! Wgolf (talk) 01:37, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Again, the problem also lies in the fact that just clicking on the notability search buttons at the top of this AfD page, leads to Anglophone media. Not a very reliable way to research the notability of people who are famous outside of the Anglophone sphere. - Takeaway (talk) 01:44, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced biography of a writer/academic, who is the father of a notable artist (composer). As notability does not cover the father, I made some search and found this in Amazon. I understand he has also written an Armenian-English dictionary but I am not sure if that much is enough to establish notability. Therefore I ask your opinions. Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 17:06, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Enough with your deletion of Armenian/Greek articles: [5][6][7][8][9][10] and your continuous sock activity (Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/E4024). Have you ever thought about helping to improve to article and the Wikipedia project before unhesitatingly deleting these invaluable articles? As for this article, it may not be perfect, but he's undoubtedly notable. He's a noted linguist and a prominent scholar in his field. He authored what is believed the first Armenian English dictionary. Not only are there books written by him, but there are several books written about him, in different languages spanning several decades. He was a professor in one of the most prestigious universities in not only the United States, but of the world. I will expand on the books he has written shortly. I will also take up the task of expanding the article. Étienne Dolet (talk) 19:19, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reply - I really don't know what more to say but let me try: I already informed you that I have made several AfDs on people of various nationalities and that no-one has ever accused me of being anti-Korean, anti-American etc. It looks like you care for only Armenians and Greeks. In that case you must have noticed that only today I made a very constructive contribution to a deletion discussion about another Armenian academic. Please also note that when you accused me of the same so-called selective deletion attempts I also presented you with an AfD discussion in which I helped save an article about a Greek businessman from being deleted by finding sources. Therefore these claims of yours are baseless. Or the base is you want to keep people from proposing to delete articles on people of certain nationalities. Let's say you frightened me and I will not do it any more. How do you plan to prevent other users from proposing similar deletions? Or do you plan to use me to intimidate others, as you have already seen I do not care much about your designs. Look at the above examples you have given: The Greek singer I proposed deletion was waiting with a notability tag since more than three years! Why did you not do anyting about it in that period or get angry with whomever tagged it? One other example is about a not notable person, which was not proposed by me, I simply participated at the discussion and the result was 'delete'. (All my contribution to the discussion was one sentence.) Or is your anger due to something else? Please stop trying to frighten me; it won't work, because Wikipedia is not my life. Don't let it become yours either. Regards. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 21:51, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I see that one editor has begun developing the article. That's a very good news. Having said that, I also want to recall that these discussions need to produce a consensus to delete an article. No article will be deleted only because some jerk proposed it. Therefore there is no basis for accusing anybody for 'deleting' anything. I hope these accusations disappear soon. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 22:16, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The user who has nominated this article for deletion is under serious suspicion of sockpuppetry (see here: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/E4024). He is a sock of a user that is banned from all topics related to Turkey, Greece, and Armenia for disruption and POV pushing edits Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive129#E4024. E4024 was also banned for the mass deletion of Armenian articles. Evidently, the user is continuing the same style of editing. Please consider this before casting your votes. Best regards, Étienne Dolet (talk) 22:41, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That sockpuppetry allegation, right or wrong, seems un-pursuable now. So maybe best to let the matter drop and forget all about E4024. Let Why should I have a User Name? edits and editing aims stand alone and be considered alone. Why should I have a User Name? has stated "I PROD or AfD anybody whose article is undersourced" - that maximalist approach to deleting things is more likely to be the reason for this AfD. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 15:19, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I also save articles from deletion. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 15:37, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Seems to me that enough notability to justify an article arises from his Armenian community in Boston activities in the 1900s-1920s (editor of Hairenik, the dictionary, etc.). This was a very important period in the development of the Armenian diaspora in America, and Boston was its most important location. There is a huge gap in the article for his life between then and his death. But that is content issue, and even if there is no notability during the latter half of his life, notability in the first half still justifies the article. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 15:28, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I think this is an example of cultural bias in referencing--the career is such that it would be notable and there will be sources, except that there is inadequate indexing, and almost none of us could look for material. In situation like this, as long as the information is verifiable through the sources we do have, I think the best course is to keep. DGG ( talk ) 17:46, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - After DGG's wise comment -as a librarian and as an old user- and keep vote I think any admin or experienced user may close this discussion. I opened this AfD discussion after making the necessary WP:BEFORE. Naturally I can reach to some sources (that I stated above) and not reach others. Anyhow, I could have withdrawn this nomination when some other sources were provided by one user, but as they wanted to use this forum also for another discussion, which involves me as a user, I desisted withdrawing for a week. I think if there are any other user who is interested in discussing another issue, can join the initiator in the relevant forum, and we continue to leave this space for discussion of articles that could be deleted on consensus. Thanks to all for their participation. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 18:41, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. The assertion that they should be kept because they might play in a couple of weeks for the national team is a clear violation of WP:CRYSTAL, aside from the fact that this assertion is based on unreferenced content from the articles themselves.

WP:CRYSTAL is in the reference to article contents, not deletion procedures. There's nothing in either article that suggests either player will be making an international appearance, therefore WP:CRYSTAL doesn't apply.

She has been diagnosed with a life-long devastating severe mental illness. There has been and will continue to be news in reliable sources about her, her family life, her prognosis and about the controversy of how her parents have decided to care for her.

  • Keep - Meets WP:SPORTCRIT which states "[t]he guidelines on this page are intended to reflect the fact that sports figures are likely to meet Wikipedia's basic standards of inclusion if they have, for example, participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level (such as the Olympics)." Competed at 2013 World Championships (now stated in the article) which is a major international competition at the highest level. Thus the presumption of notability exists and I see no evidence for that presumption to be overcome. RonSigPi (talk) 03:19, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The mere fact that Latvia keeps sending her to the world championships despite her not winning any matches there does not seem sufficient to show notability. It merely shows that she's considered the best female Latvian wrestler in her class and given Latvia's population of 2 million, I'm not sure that's enough. Population wise, that's less than the population of Brooklyn and being the best wrestler in Brooklyn isn't sufficient grounds for notability. There's no qualifying for the world championships, say through continental championships. For example, Kitti Korosi of Hungary lost her first match in the same weight division at the 2013 European championships 7-0 and still appeared at the 2013 world championships.

  • Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:MANOTE. 204.126.132.231 (talk) 16:11, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment A few points. First, its worth pointing out that WP:MANOTE is an essay and not a guideline, similar to WP:CFBCOACH. Second I dont know how one 'fails' WP:MANOTE as it merely shows how notability or deletion are supported. Of a similar note, I dont see how any of the listed points, either for deletion or notability, are relevant for this person and thus dont know how its 'failed'. Third, it seems like the martial arts project wants to expand its reach. Not only a wrestler being claimed as one that the martial arts project has authority over, but even boxing seems to be getting roped in (see deletion discussion for Mickey Goodwin). While one can argue if wrestling and boxing are martial arts, the WP:MANOTE are not written with a wrestler in mind. There is no 'finding of a wrestling style' as would be needed for 2. The 2nd half of 3 states that world champion of an 'organization', but that seems more geared to UFC/Bellator than what is commonly considered a governing body. There are no 'belts' in wrestling as 4 discusses and typically books in an 'art' are not common in wrestling. That leaves 1 and the first part of 3, which would apply to almost any athlete, not specifically a martial artist. I just dont see WP:MANOTE it carrying weight here. That leaves us with WP:GNG and I think as said before WP:SPORTCRIT is met and thus a presumption of GNG applies.RonSigPi (talk) 22:43, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, there's so much wrong with your comment I hardly know where to start. First, you're upset because the two oldest martial arts known to man, boxing and wrestling, are being treated as--martial arts. Then you're saying that MANOTE obviously can't apply to wrestlers because they can't meet the criteria--and you list the fact that they don't compete for major organizations or medals. Then what is FILA and the medals they award? You say MANOTE doesn't apply to Mickey Goodwin, but nowhere in that discussion is MANOTE mentioned. In fact, someone is upset because we used the notability criteria for boxers (NBOX) for--a boxer. Finally, for this discussion there is nothing to show GNG is met. The only sources are links to results and that's not considered significant coverage.Mdtemp (talk) 18:23, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Artificial Joy[edit]

Artificial Joy (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Very poor sources. Two are about another band and don't mention Artificial Joy, one is an Amazon page, and another is a very brief mention in a blog. The band self-published an EP and toured for a few years, but isn't enough to establish WP:BAND. Some members may be borderline notable, but notability is not inherited. Grayfell (talk) 23:37, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

When the article was created in December 2013, it had several clean-up tags on it from May, indicating it was a copy/paste job. [[12]] This was presumably because it was originally derived from the article Artificial Joy NYC. It was, in fact, almost identical, so I turned that article into a redirect before I noticed what was going on. Messy stuff. Grayfell (talk) 02:13, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Secondary Source is a legit source from Official Amazon biography http://www.amazon.com/Size-14/e/B000APVK22/ref=ntt_mus_dp_pel, No reason for article deletion, User Grayfell editing all entries relating to Robt Ptak and seems to have some kind of personal vendetta against the artist --Subtitlemeplease (talk) 02:24, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The profile on that link specifically says it's provided by the artist (or rather the related band Size 14) to Amazon, it is not WP:SECONDARY, and further, it barely even mentions Artificial Joy. I have no vendetta against the artist, and have been editing these articles because they are mostly badly written and in need of cleanup. Grayfell (talk) 03:20, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]


The Amazon bio mentioning Artificial Joy is managed by the artist Size 14 so it is WP:SECONDARY All members of Artificial Joy were in major label bands so meet the requirements for WP:BAND please check each members bio for proof of this - Drummer Alex Elena was even the drummer for Avril Lavigne's album Let go[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Subtitlemeplease (talkcontribs) 08:20, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Really? Size 14 was founded by Robt Ptak, and according to his Wikipedia page (written by the same small group of editors), he manages the band's Facebook page and other websites. Robt Ptak is Artificial Joy. The bio itself specifically makes that point. It's clearly the same person, let's not pretend otherwise. The band may, possibly pass some of the WP:BAND specifics, but I don't think they pass WP:GNG without some reliable secondary sources. Passing GNG is the more pressing goal. As an alternate, the article could be merged with Robt Ptak, but lacking solid sources, it would be greatly reduced in size. Grayfell (talk) 08:51, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It passes WP:BAND therefore it does not need deleting. Thanks --Subtitlemeplease (talk) 17:45, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Again, since there are no reliable, secondary sources, the band has not been established as notable. The band didn't produce any non-self-published albums, received no substantial press coverage that I've seen, and has not been cited by any notable outside musicians as being influential. Other than Ptak, the two supposedly notable members are Milena Mepris and Alex Elena. While their membership might, arguably, lead to the band meeting WP:BAND, those articles have too many notability problems of their own to ignore.
Mepris' article (which was also created by you) has extremely poor sources. After looking into it closer, I'm suggesting that her article be merged with Pin Me Down, since that is her only substantiated claim to notability.
Elena's only claim to fame seems to be having worked with more famous musicians, but again, there are no reliable secondary sources. The only secondary source for THAT article is a brief blurb in a metal blog which accepts WP:UGC, lists no author, and reads like a press release. Again, very poor sources there.
Claiming that the article just barely meets a single requirement of WP:BAND seems like trying to squeak by on a technicality. After thinking about it further, think this article should be merged with Ptak's instead of being deleted. Without reliable, secondary sources this is just a semi-WP:WALLEDGARDEN of vanity articles.

Grayfell is following me around on Wikipedia editing all of my posts, he has even been editing the company I WORK for wikipedia page, this is bordering on Stalking Could someone else please check whether the Artificial Joy page should be reinstated? --Subtitlemeplease (talk) 01:31, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Subtitlemeplease, when you link to a user's page, it notifies that user, which is why I am responding. I understand your concern but stalking is not what's happening. You added spam to an article on my watchlist (the UK Locksmithing thing). When I reverted that, I also checked your edit history to see if you had added any other spammy links. This is common practice to prevent vandalism. I then edited some of the articles you created to clean them up. When doing so, I added them to my WP:WATCHLIST. You retaliated by blanking my talk page. I decided it wasn't worth the hassle, and backed off, but those articles remained on my watchlist. When one of those article showed up again, I decided to look closer and began editing them. If you feel my behavior is inappropriate, I suggest you describe what is happening at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. There are only few people watching this deletion discussion, so discussing it here is probably not going to accomplish much. WP:AIN, however, is very active, and will attract administrator attention if you still feel that is necessary. Grayfell (talk) 02:21, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Grayfell Sorry I don't have time to make some report. I just only ever edited the pages so that these bands primarily Size 14 and its associated acts/members got a bit of recognition for the music they produced in the 90s. If you want to try and get these deleted/wiped it thats your choice. --Subtitlemeplease (talk) 03:47, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your writing style is very distinctive. Are you the same person who wrote the Amazon bio? Grayfell (talk) 03:59, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No I did not write the Amazon bio, I'm just a fan of the band, I'm from the UK not Los Angeles - Whoever owns the copyright to their music/has access to edit a Amazon Artists bio would have wrote it. --Subtitlemeplease (talk) 05:22, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is an autobiography by Psydoc47 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log). That user is also known as Dr. David Greenfield <psydoc47 at gmail dot com>.

Dr. Greenfield is a US-based clinical psychologist who specializes in treating Internet addiction. You can view his resume elsewhere, in PDF or HTML formats.

It was a mistake for Dr. Greenfield to put an autobiographical article on Wikipedia. But let's consider our options now. We have two choices:

  1. Keep and cleanup.
  2. Delete.

I was unable to tell whether or not Dr. Greenfield meets Wikipedia's inclusion criteria in the first place. Does he? If so, we should keep the article and clean it up. (We could trim it down to a stub, to make the job easier.) If not, we should delete the article.

Non-notable wrestler, attending events does not establish notability. Peter Rehse (talk) 13:46, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep - Meets WP:SPORTCRIT multiple times over which states "[t]he guidelines on this page are intended to reflect the fact that sports figures are likely to meet Wikipedia's basic standards of inclusion if they have, for example, participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level (such as the Olympics)." Bisek has competed at three world championships and one world cup. In addition, he won a bronze medal at the 2014 World Championships. RonSigPi (talk) 14:32, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Another example of an AfD that annoys me. First, he has been to multiple world championships and the article makes that clear. Second, he was a world bronze medalist. While the article at the time of the AfD didn't state this, typing 'Andy Bisek' in Google yields this information in the titles of the first page of hits (i.e., you don't even have to click on any of the results - its right there on the search result titles). Probably in less time than it took to make the AfD one could have found this out and added this information to the article. Not like this appeared to be a completely irrelevant person from the face of the article. As usual, instead of working to make Wikipedia better and improving articles (a positive action) there is a rush to delete without doing due diligence (a negative action).

  • Merge to glossary. It's worth attempting to engage the page history and/or talk page before coming to AfD—page probably could have been merged with little fanfare. So "camping" has coverage, but not quite enough to source more than a few good definitions on its variations and maybe some examples. I doubt most of the 27kB of OR at hand here can be sourced. Might be worth differentiating between spawn/base and other kinds of camping in the glossary, though. Some sources: [21][22][23][24] czar  04:34, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep or selective merge to Glossary of video game terms. I seem to have a little more faith in the notability of the subject than others here, but not a lot more. The camper isn't just an activity or tactic but a quasi-character and trope that comes up repeatedly in fan fiction, etc. (see Diary of a Camper, one of the earliest and best known Machinimas). Some other sources that talk specifically about camping: Kotaku - In Defense of the Camper, Conference paper - Playing Dirty, and also things like this: "That's not the way you play the game" -- about camping operating under thea ssumption readers know what it means [or will understand per the Reddit post title]. --— Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:23, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

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

This article probably does not meet any of the notability criteria in WP:GNG

It seems to be a small independent paid service (management or HR) for universities to contract, of the size and economic scope of a cafeteria service or taxi service.

The person that the article is about does have a PhD in his subject, I'm not sure if someone having a PhD makes that person notable or not, probably not.

Createangelos (talk) 20:03, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, here is a sort of argument against the deletion which I'm recommending, the guy's website criticalthinking.org does have some nice writing on it by his staff or collaborators such as

"The enlightened person may well be perplexed: Where, in this mission statement, is the concept of education? Is “success in college and careers” to be equated with educating the mind? Is developing the ability to “compete successfully in the global economy” the same as cultivating minds capable of reasoning in good faith within multiple perspectives? How does this core curriculum integrate critical thinking, education, and the deep learning of content? How will this curriculum help students develop the intellectual virtues that define the ethical, or fairminded, critical thinker – virtues such as intellectual empathy, intellectual integrity, intellectual autonomy, intellectual humility, intellectual perseverance, confidence in reason and fairmindedness? To what extent are these virtues desired (or feared) by the business community, educators, parents? Is the Core Curriculum compatible with emancipating the mind, liberating people, and making the world more just for all humans and other sentient creatures? Have we so lost our way as to believe that the cultivation of the intellect is to be equated with developing “thinking skills” that simply help people function better as workers?"

(end quote) Createangelos (talk) 20:34, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

For example something like this article from 'riffwiki' whatever it is, would be nice in Wikipedia, but the problem is, it is like an ad http://riffwiki.com/Foundation_for_Critical_Thinking These critical thinking guys seem to need some help, they have some good ideas, but using Wikipedia as a marketing tool is not one of them. Maybe a small article which actually describes the organization or how it defines 'critical thinking' might be OK. It might be notable that several universities believe it, whatever it is, it it can be described or characterised by anyone who actually understands it.

  • delete no real evidence for notability besides that his organization has sold his program to a few minor universities and colleges. . DGG ( talk ) 08:21, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do not delete- I'm not sure if any of those calling for deletion have any knowledge about the subject, but Richard Paul is an acknowledged leader and innovator in the field of Critical Thinking. (and no, I am not a relative or paid by them to say this). He is cited in most of the scholarly articles in education relating to critical thinking that I have read. He is an innovator because the Paul/Elder theory on Critical thinking encompasses a humanistic component ( strong minded vs weak minded thinking) that was never discussed prior. While his work might not be recognizable to those not actively engaged in the field, anyone taking the time to actually reading his work, must be impressed, for it is incredibly well thought out and enlightening. (neefly)

neefly, strange as it sounds, much of your impassioned defense of Richard William Paul is irrelevant in the wonderful world of Wikipedia. "incredibly well thought out and enlightening" doesn't matter. "acknowledged leader and innovator in the field of Critical Thinking" doesn't matter, except to the degree it causes him to receive mention/citations elsewhere. However, "He is cited in most of the scholarly articles in education relating to critical thinking that I have read" is more important. See my separate comment below. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 00:35, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep but possibly merge? Definitely highly notable and should not be deleted, but I think this might be merged with the existing article Saptapadi as I believe both refer to the same part of the marriage ceremony.

Libby norman Saat Phere is little more common term and modern. Previously this article was called Satphere, it remained for a few years, I had changed the title. I wanted to merge first, but I just dropped that idea because both of the articles have different types of content. Both of these words have different origins. Agniparinayana is even more accurate term but not used as much. These articles require some expansion. Some have also confused Parikrama with Saat Phere.
Reason? According to nominator it is:- Hindi term is used for article creation in English wikipedia [25] Nominator is just trying to take revenge because I nominated one of his article for deletion, it is Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Summer love (novel).

Unverified. The concept of the article - touring while blindfolded - is not supported by the references; they are about tourism by blind people. I thought it might be a joke or hoax, but I did find a few references to individuals doing this. However, it is certainly not a trend, nor did I find any commercially offered tours of this kind - just individuals doing it for a brief time to make some kind of point. PROD was removed by the author with the comment "Give me a day or two to gather up some relevant references. Rest assured this is a prevalent concept, it happens at a lot of places."

  • Keep Seems to be sufficient coverage to meet GNG. "Keeps on getting the info changed" and "prod removed" are not deletion reasons. If you are "not sure how notable they are" you are expected to exercise a little diligence yourself, per WP:BEFORE. All the best: Rich Farmbrough15:30, 30 September 2014 (UTC).

  • Delete. I've pretty much removed all of the unsourced, promotional content since it was so non-neutral that she could've been speedied for that alone. There is an assertion of notability here through her association with Bieber so we should have a more thorough discussion, just so we have an official consensus. That said, I couldn't really find anything that talked about the singer apart from her relationship with Bieber. Some mention is to be expected, but I couldn't really find enough out there to show a true depth of coverage about the singer herself. Everything was about her maybe dating Bieber, about salacious rumors of her sleeping with him, and about the cyberbullying she received as a result of hanging out with him. None of the articles really focused on her career at all- it was all about her in relation to Bieber. Since her relationship wasn't well-known enough to really warrant a mention in Bieber's article, I'll just vote to delete. If anyone wants to userfy/incubate this I have no true objection, just that at this point in time it's just WP:TOOSOON. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:11, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Does not meet notability guidelines. Tagged for RS since Feb 2013. Cannot find sources to meet WP:GNG or WP:MUSIC. Previous AFD refers to possible foreign language sources, but none are included, with or without translation. There's an embedded external link to a movie he starred in, but I'm not sure that can be considered enough, since we need "significant roles in multiple notable films".

Author contested prod saying there is much info out there to prove notability - said when contested prod. yet same author writes in article that there is very little info out there on Farr. therefore, IMHO, it is non verifiable nn person. Original author can't have it both ways - either there is or isn't much info available. I am going with what he wrote in article. Postcard Cathy (talk) 02:16, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep (per MichaelQSchmidt's work) Delete (per following paragraph). Comment. I haven't yet had time to do a search, but I did make an edit to the article. It used another Wikipedia article (Lady Luck (1936 film)) as its only reliable source. Of course, this is not allowed, and I removed it. The other article lists no reliable sources at all, so there is nothing to borrow for this article. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 03:42, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I did some digging, but the news is not good. Patricia Farr apparently starred in at least 3 movies and one 12 part serial, along with lesser parts in more than a dozen other movies. However, to meet the requirements of WP:NACTOR, she must have "had significant roles in multiple notable films." Per WP:MOVIE, for a film to be notable, it's not good enough just to be part of a large compendium: "Examples of coverage INSUFFICIENT [my emphasis] to fully establish notability include...listings in comprehensive film guides such as Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide...". Well, that's all I found: entries in places like [26] and a book that lists more than 1200 movies. The NY Times [27] said "Farr starred or co-starred in such forgotten fare as Speed to Spare (1937) and All-American Sweetheart (1938)." Sorry, but that doesn't sound like appearance in notable movies. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 04:34, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks to MichaelQSchmidt! I've changed my vote, above, to Keep. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 08:05, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for failing WP:NACTOR. I found a paragraph in the Ogden Standard-Examiner and another in the Circleville Herald via Newspapers.com, but nothing really significant. Basically she was an up-and-coming starlet who never really got there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clarityfiend (talkcontribs) 04:09, 11 October 2014
  • Comment: I'm adding her full filmography to the article and while she's done a lot of uncredited roles, I also see where she's been the star in a lot of films. User:MichaelQSchmidt should probably come in on this, as he's good at finding sources for these older films. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:58, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks, Tokyogirl79. What worries me about this AFD (and my Delete vote) is that the movies Farr starred in currently have Wikipedia articles -- but with the exception of the serial Tailspin Tommy, the articles (The Lady in Scarlet, Lady Luck, and All-American Sweethart) have no sources showing notability, and in an admittedly quick perusal I didn't notice any. It would be great if some were found. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 05:18, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • That worries me as well. Part of me wants to argue keep based on that, but I'd still have to show that those films are notable themselves and so far it's slow going. I'm finding some hints of coverage, but finding coverage for that long ago is like trying to pull the teeth out of a running gazelle with a hammer and a cast on my foot. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:28, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I was the originator of the Patricia Farr page. Larry Traveling Man says that I used the film "Lady Luck" as a "reliable source". I did not do that. The reference was meant as a footnote to indicate which film was being suggested by me as the one in which Farr appeared as leading lady. I'm highly annoyed that Larry, after perhaps a superficial reading, has misrepresented what I did. To illustrate what I meant without again offending Larry, I have re-written the first line of the page. Akld guy (talk) 06:18, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry if your feelings were hurt, but since all that was provided was a link, I took it as a claim to be a reliable source -- which it was not. If it was intended to be an explanatory footnote (of the previous text ..."in at least one"), then it would have required additional wording, such as "One of the films was Lady Luck (1936)". However, that also would have required a reliable source (which the linked article was not), and so also would have been removed. Thanks to the research being done, it's now possible to add a source; it can be added assuming the article makes it. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 07:11, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as suitable now-sourced and further sourceable stub that preserves a piece of American cinematic history. Tokyogirl79's work inspired me to look, and I found that she has been noted in multiple reliable sources and her body of verifiable work meets WP:ENT #2. While it would be wonderful to have reams of 1930s-40s media covering her work, her career sadly ended with her 1948 death. This may likely never be as all-inclusive and copious an article as something on Marilyn Monroe, but so what? It serves the project to inform our readers.
