The result was delete. Marginally notable (at best), unsourced, promotional... recipe for deletion. I'll note that I'm perhaps relying on my "judgement" to a greater degree than normal, so I won't object to somebody recreating the article more properly. – Juliancolton | ^Talk 22:12, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Insufficient coverage in WP:RS to pass WP:GNG. Sources just indicate that he's a prominent lawyer at a prominent law firm, but still not someone who's attracted sufficient coverage in RS to merit an article. North of Eden (talk) 23:04, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

• Weak keep per WP:BARE and User:Bearian/Standards#Notability_of_attorneys. He's a name partner of a very large law firm and he serves on some major bar association committees and editorial boards. On the minus side, I don't see anything about law review, court appointments, or other major work he's done. The article as submitted was very badly written; I suspect a paralegal or PR type wrote it up for him (if not, and he wrote it, he's an awful writer IMHO). Bearian (talk) 22:45, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Just as a comment, User:Bearian/Standards#Notability of attorneys is highly impressive. North of Eden (talk) 22:35, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
• Weak Keep based on the references provided thus far. But I can't let the comment pass without noting that the edit history currently includes a dozen different newly-created accounts with no edits outside of this article. Odd. --Finngall ^talk 04:58, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
• Delete - no claim to notability in the article, just another lawyer, sources are not independent, and most are about his name being added to the law firms identifier, fails WP:BLP1E. Also, article is a WP:COATRACK, most info is promotional about "one of the ten fastest growing law firms". Kraxler (talk) 15:06, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
• Redirect to Gordon & Rees, his law firm. The firm appears to be more notable than he is. This article is hopelessly promotional - "This was in recognition of the contributions Scully made to its meteoric growth," "he devised a plan to expand the firm's national, regional, and local practices and hire great lawyers to represent clients at twice the value of the large firms," "thanks to Scully, Gordon & Rees continued to grow," etc. - and very weakly referenced. --MelanieN (talk) 16:59, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

... and just to note: none of the other partners in this firm, including the founders, have Wikipedia articles. --MelanieN (talk) 17:18, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Article about a media personality that does not meet WP:GNG; no indication that sufficient reliable sources exist to get the subject past that threshold.

Very poor article that looks like a recreation of Ron Shimshilashvili. But it is possible that by now he is notable. Under this name just a few Google hits and a promo IMDb-page. Under the correct name about 80k Google hits and a serious IMDb page. Page move not possible as the Ron Shimshilashvili-page is salted. Re-evaluation necessary. The Banner talk 21:06, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

• Speedy delete and Salt - SPA re-creation of a deleted article with no new evidence for notability. No significant coverage in reliable sources. Fails WP:NACTOR. GermanJoe (talk) 00:38, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

• A quick note to the IMDB-credentials: spotchecking a few of the 50 entries (I am not checking all of them), those are minor roles in mostly less-known productions (a lot of them have him as producer, editor, director etc. as well). None of the checked roles have been in the primary cast of a notable movie. GermanJoe (talk) 00:54, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

I think he's an extra in almost all of them, most uncredited. The comment on his IMDB forum was complaining he was rude to the "other extras" on the Rock of Ages set. You can see from the aggressive sockpuppetry on this page that he has a high opinion of himself. —Мандичка^YO 😜 16:29, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

that person who wrote the comment don't even exist his account last log in was 3 years and 7 months ago ... Can see it's a hater like you ;) don't worry time will come. Ron will shiny and all haters gone feel the pain. Printing copy of this page for further notice to send to Ron so he can keep a screen shot of this and in the future once he shiny it's gone be on tv. I'll make sure I found out his address to send him this screen shot. Go a head delete this page. Do it now!! Ron will get a copy of this "wanna be Russian" in the mail and we all will see it soon. Give it some time. Everything has time. Baby. Peace. I'm done with this case close. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.29.171.203 (talk) 17:09, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

• Speedy Keep really famous on a serious IMDb page. And all over the world! Who ever wrote the article needs to fix it. Next time I'll write better one about him. All you haters gone hate !! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:30B:8200:FFC9:DCF7:4D33:D20E:CB4B (talk) 16:08, 3 August 2015 (UTC) — 2602:30B:8200:FFC9:DCF7:4D33:D20E:CB4B (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Please stop spamming this page. This is not a situation where votes are counted. —Мандичка^YO 😜 16:25, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

• Delete I cannot find a single reliable source. I removed some links from the page, after not being able to find any mention of him as being associated with these movies. I do not know what to make of having 97,000 Facebook "likes," and zero secondary sources, but it's not notability. Flag me if I'm wrong, and someone produces sources.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:39, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
• Delete Does not appear to be a notable actor. Only one role in a film that currently has a Wikipedia page. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)} ~ 17:12, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
• Delete Even under the correct spelling of Shimshilashvili, I can find a mass of social media and such stuff but nothing that would seem to pass WP:RS. Facebook likes are not accepted here as a reliable value indicator as they can be purchased at quite reasonable prices. IMDb is in many cases user supplied info (Adolf Hitler's page being an exception...), and not regarded as reliable here. I'm not a 'hater' - I've never heard of him before this and haven't managed to find anything much reliable to base hate or like on. That's what we go on here - reliable independent sources WP:RS. If you can produce them, please do so. Otherwise, you're wasting your time by posting things that will be ignored because they don't give good reasons WITH PROOF that the article should be kept. Peridon (talk) 17:26, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

I've delinked some of the films or TV progs as the links don't go to relevant things. I've also looked in the cast lists for things that are accessible, but can find no mention of Shimshilashvili in them. Peridon (talk) 19:35, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

Does anyone have reliable proof that he indeed won the award mentioned in the article and picture? I can not find one. The Banner talk 14:17, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

yes !! The video proof is on YouTube and on the newspaper !! Do you want me to send you the video link ?? Or just type on YouTube Ron won award movie premier ... At least you understand us!! May god bless you !! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.29.171.203 (talk) 14:54, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

• Comment @5.29.171.203: YouTube is not a reliable independent source. I'm afraid the sources you have in the article aren't reliable independent sources either. IMDb, profiles at places like MTV, and questions about Shimshilashvili's birthday at evi.com are no good for establishing notability. All they show is the subject exists. We need more - coverage in good quality press reports about him (not just naming him while talking about something else), but not the lyrics of a rap song. Peridon (talk) 15:22, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

how about an tmz interview ?? Is tmz good or "fake " Also. If you guys don't believe in tmz. Well then i don't know what to say. His not the son of Obama ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.29.171.203 (talk) 16:55, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Obama does not have a son. He does, however, have two daughters, NEITHER of whom have their own Wikipedia article. —Мандичка^YO 😜 14:42, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

You didn't answer the question trying to back off lol ?? So answer the question about tmz. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.56.27.194 (talk) 18:32, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

What question? Is TMZ good or fake? TMZ can be used as a source, but it's not a very strong source. But as has been pointed out multiple times, he must meet WP:GNG ← read this please. —Мандичка^YO 😜 18:42, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

• Delete Anyone who wants to keep this article should share the 2-3 best sources of information covering this person which meet WP:RS and pass WP:GNG. This should not be a complicated assessment - Wikipedia's rules are kept simple. Blue Rasberry (talk) 14:58, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

• Comment. Although the most recent potential conflict may be resolved, the article is still heavily promotional in tone. More importantly though, the subject doesn't meet WP:BIO or WP:GNG as far as I can tell. agtx 01:09, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

I am purely a volunteer and not being compensated in any way. I think that your other concerns can be addressed with some edits to the tone and additional references and do not warrant complete deletion. Thank you! KBHunter (talk) 12:39, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

• Unfortunately delete for now and draft/userfy if needed as although the article is neat and sourced, the sources could be better and I would've actually suggested moving to the show's article (Bridge the Gap to Pine Ridge) but there's no current one.

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Also, although notability standards for lists are notoriously vague, the linked policy notes that list notability is determined by the group. There is just no way this subject, schools with initials IHS, is a notable subject or anything more than unencyclopedic trivia. North of Eden (talk) 18:32, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

[Inserted after later entries]: this discussion applies equally to all articles of the form <initials> (schools) and <initials> (high schools). Pol098 (talk) 13:16, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

• Merge to IHS (disambiguation page) where appropriate; no need for a separate page, and most of the entries do not have the initialism indicated as an alternative for the name. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 19:15, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
• Delete [entry revised]; can't merge as don't meet guidelines for abbreviations disambiguation page. Most of the entries in IHS (schools) don't meet WP:DABABBREV and so don't qualify for IHS; in fact they were in IHS, but I moved out those that didn't very obviously support DABABBREV (I didn't check all entries in detail, those that conform can be copied back). I'd comment that there have long been a number of articles XYZ (school) and XYZ (high school); I also created some new ones, imitating others that already existed. I'm quite happy to delete the huge and unnecessary schools articles, so long as huge lists of entries not meeting DABABBREV clutter up initials disambiguation pages, where they don't belong. I raised the question in Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Initials of schools in disambiguation pages (e.g. BHS), with no dissent. Pol098 (talk) 20:01, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

I've revised my stated opinion to "delete", from "delete or keep". I consider this, and similar lists of schools, to be pointless. I thought there would be objections to a straightforward delete (added: I've had a great deal of flak for deleting inappropriate "disambiguation" initials entries); "keep" was a less worse option than merging it back into IHS. There are a lot of articles like this, and a lot of "<l>HS" initials disambiguation pages choked with pointless lists of schools—I'm happy to delete the lot. Pol098 (talk) 21:32, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

I did state in my !vote "as appropriate" because I did not check everything to see if there were any which were appropriate. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:38, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

• Delete - this seems quite useless and also invites the creation of similar unnecessary pages. Next will be KHS schools, EHS schools, etc. —Мандичка^YO 😜 21:07, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Er, I've already done some of these, sorry. My motive was to clean up the initials disambiguation pages; I was under the impression that a suggestion to delete all these schools would raise a lot of protest, so I moved out rather than delete. I'm quite happy for all the "<l>HS (schools)" and <l>HS (high schools)" pages to be deleted. Obviously I'm not WP:Bold enough. Pol098 (talk) 21:32, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

World Cheerleading Championships

World Cheerleading Championships (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)

I have been debating this AfD for a few days now, ever since I started working on the draft version of this page (before this page was "restored"). While this event certainly passes the A7 test, I cannot convince myself that it meets WP:GNG. An event (supposedly) this huge, but with no reliable sources talking about it? Very strange. The only reliable sources I can find are from the ICU/USASF, which are the coordinators/hosts of the event, and Varsity, which sponsors it. The only history/background I can find (other than passing mentions of "it started in 2004") are on these three sites. When a team goes to Worlds, they get a mention in the paper, but it's never anything specifically about Worlds, just that it exists and is a cheerleading competition.

This page currently is a two-sentence stub with a huge block of winners. Should it be moved to "List of WCW Medals" when there is no parent page? No. I will rescind this nomination if multiple reliable sources can be found about the competition itself, but until then I must conclude that it's not suitable for inclusion on Wikipedia. Primefac (talk) 17:31, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

• Delete - I think this is one of those money-making events that lacks authenticity, as I don't think there is a world governing body for the "sport" (cough, cough) of cheerleading. Just like there are about 10 "national cheerleading championships" and "national dance championships" (that are always conveniently held at Disneyland and Disneyworld). So I would guess that is why there is no legitimate coverage. —Мандичка^YO 😜 19:59, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Wikimandia, the ICU is recognized as the world governing body of cheerleading (but that's a circular reference based on the Wiki page...), though I don't think that fact has any particular bearing on the outcome of this discussion. Primefac (talk) 20:44, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Ehh regardless, it's still sort of lacking in credibility is my point. It's organized by the U.S. federation (odd, not run by the ICU?) and lacks credibility as a real competitive event, much less a world championship. Thus, no coverage to meet GNG. —Мандичка^YO 😜 21:04, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Doesn't seem to meet WP:NACADEMIC only has primary sources. Brustopher (talk) 00:43, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletion discussions. — JJMC89 (T·E·C) 04:42, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

• Keep - should easily meet WP:ACADEMIC with almost 3,800 citations and h-index of 27 at Google Scholar [1]. —Мандичка^YO 😜 09:58, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

• Comment I was starting to think the same thing, but I'm doubting the accuracy of his Google Scholar profile. The most-cited publication (about same-sex weddings, written by someone named Ingraham) appears to be erroneously credited to him, as far as I can tell. In addition, there are several articles related to magnetic resonance imaging that were written by an AG Collins rather than this economist. I'm not sure what the actual h-index should be, but it seems a lot lower without the apparently misattributed publications (with citation counts of 362, 311, 248, 248, 145, 115, 76, 63, 63, 61... probably others). His website indicates prior work as an engineer/planner, but there is nothing about science/MR/NMR and he doesn't claim these kinds of publications on his site. EricEnfermero (Talk) 06:52, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

• Weak delete. With the Google scholar profile obviously not well curated, and Google scholar itself hopeless because of the common name, we'll have to look elsewhere for notability. He's not in the top 10% of economists as ranked by RePEc (approximately 4400 economists) [2]. He is however in the top 25% of UK economists, at number 669 out of 875 [3] (the same ranking places the department he heads as 78th in the UK). Category:British economists and its subcategories have 529 members (possibly fewer if some people are in more than one subcategory). So I'm skeptical whether this is good enough for WP:PROF#C1, but maybe it's close. His book Playing the Love Market has one academic review that I found [4] and his edited volume Cities of Pleasure has two [5] [6]. These give a plausible but quite weak case for WP:AUTHOR. But I'm not seeing anything that makes notability clear, and I'd rather not let a bunch of lesser things add up to more than they are. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:37, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

• He's failing WP:V - there's no need to read WP:Academic. Typically if an unverified article is challenged with an AFd the onus is on the AFd participants to verify the topic is notable with reliable secondary sources or it gets deleted. This is particularly the case with BLPs, it is possible WP could get sued for vandalism of the page when he isn't even notable. Szzuk (talk) 19:48, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Was speedy tagged for non-notability but has some third party coverage - a quick search found [8], [9] and [10]. Necessarily, some of the coverage will be in Estonian. It was once userified in 2010.

• Keep, re-write

There is plenty of information on the Škoda Joyster with a quick search query. However, the article may need to be re-written to announce that nothing has come of this project, or would that count as original research?

• Keep as per Kraxler; It passes WP:BROADCAST and while there isn't much written material on it, New Zealand is a very small nation with a population less than that of Chicagoland. However, there are some related press material, and it is an up-and-running channel in New Zealand--perhaps it is relatively inconsequential for most of the English speaking world, but this channel would be very mainstream in New Zealand, as it is part of the Sky network.

• Comment I find this biography extremely confusing partially because I don't speak Bulgarian. Mimo Garcia is a "Bulgarian director, actor, TV/radio host, writer and LGBT rights activist", has published 3 books of poetry and will direct a film this summer...but he is 17 years old! The article said he changed his name when he was 18 years old...but he is 17. When I looked at one of his books at Goodreads, all of the reviews are 5 star raves. It's hard to believe he has accomplished so much at his young age. But if he hasn't actually done all of this, he has created a lot of website material that supports this biography although much of it is from user-generated content sites or the links are bad. He is either amazingly accomplished for a teenager in Bulgaria (which I doubt) or he is an adept self-promoter. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 14:13, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

I speak Bulgarian - I included his name in Cyrillic above (Мимо Гарсия) so you can search for sources in BG. There is simply nothing there. Not a single news article, interview, television appearance etc. He seems to be a very ambitious young man. Note "someone" even created a Wikiquote article about himself with a quote from his blog: wikiquote:Mimo_Garcia. There is a separate AfD on the movie he supposedly directed and starred in - thereis not a single news article about it. His books at Good Reads are self-published - the publishing house he listed for at least one is essentially a Kinko's. [17]. It's almost at the level of speedy delete as hoax. There is something very strange about all this - note what I removed from his bio in the personal life section: [18]. —Мандичка^YO 😜 21:04, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

This is an article about a publishing house. It is written in extremely poor English, and it is very hard to understand. It is probably machine-translated from Albanian. The subject lacks the WP:NOTABILITY. There are zero reliable independent sources cited in the article. All sources cited are either the company's own sites, or are writeen by the company owner ([23]) or are dead links, or do not mention the company at all. It is hard to look for reliable sources using Google Search because Rrjedha means simply "stream" in Albanian. As far as I was able to search, I found no reliable sources.

Obscure open-source software project - unable to find any third-party (non eMule) coverage of this project, as noted back in June 2010 on the article's talk page.

Keep: Sources: There are two references published by cnBeta.com, a well-known (alexa ranked 1104 worldwide and 145 in China) Chinese-language, non-self-publishing, general IT-related news website. The two references was added by me and, before doing that I posted "I'll add some sources from some popular Chinese sites" on that article's talk page and another editor User:Old Death responded later "That should be sufficient". I'd suggest User:DissidentAggressor post under that thread if he disagrees the sufficiency of the sources, instead of asking for deletion directly and stating "unable to find any third-party (non eMule) coverage of this project, as noted back in June 2010 on the article's talk page" which according to what I said is not true at all.
Influence: Xtreme Mod brought a remarkable anti-leecher function (DLP (Dynamic Leecher Protection)) into the eMule/eDonkey world, thus brought in lots of discussion in Chinese and in worldwide eMule or even all peer-to-peer file sharing community. Leecher and anti-leecher is really an interesting topic and culture in the P2P world, you may also read Leech (computing)#P2P networks and BitTorrent.
Other notability: In China, Xtreme mod's user may be more than official eMule's, although among eDonkey network clients it may be VeryCD's easyMule which gets the most Chinese users. And as stated in the article, it is the most popular emule mod in the world and there may be really few eDonkey network clients, except official eMule, that can be more popular (according to users count) than Xtreme mod.--Tomchen1989 (talk) 21:56, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

"the eMule/eDonkey world" What the heck? That's press release language. "As stated in the article, it is the most popular emule mod in the world?" That's like saying it's the most popular left-handed non-chrome plated crescent wrench in the world. Not quite one of the criteria in GNG. The Dissident Aggressor 02:34, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

No, that's like saying it's among the most popular Firefox or Google Chrome extensions, whose Wikipedia articles do exist. Actually by download count Xtreme Mod is comparable to them. If I remember right, eMule was ranked no.1 and Xtreme Mod was ranked about 10-20th by all time download count on Sourceforge on 2008 or 2009 (I checked sourceforge.net/top/, the list contained not only top 10 but more). And at that time Sourceforge was uncontroversially the world's most popular software repository / hosting service. It was a decent rank, had Xtreme mod got such rank and such popularity today, this AfD might not exist. Xtreme Mod may be less used now, but once it is considered notable and popular, according to Wikipedia guidelines, the popularity doesn't need to be ongoing. Just for information: download count of Xtreme mod, of ScarAngel (a mod of Xtreme mod). --Tomchen1989 (talk) 14:58, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

And, as you might already know, I'm obviously not a native English speaker. Sorry for using "press release language" in our discussion, but as long as it is not written in the article, I don't think it's very inappropriate. Thank you for your understanding. Consider "eMule/eDonkey world" as "eMule/eDonkey community" if you want. Given that once eMule was the no.1 software on the no.1 software hosting service, I think this community is far larger than a community where discusses "left-handed non-chrome plated crescent wrench". --Tomchen1989 (talk) 15:26, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

@Tomchen1989: Sorry - didn't mean to criticize a non-native speaker's use of language. I've been dealing with a lot of paid editors. - But more to the point you made, Chrome, Firefox and IE are mainstream products used by billions world-wide. eMule is relatively obscure, catering to a small segment of techies. I don't think the comparison works. The Dissident Aggressor 18:02, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

An article about a media mogul who owns multiple news channels and companies. While most of the news channels passes WP:ORG but since WP:NOTINHERIT the subject may not pass our notability threshold. Most of the coverage is just passing mentions and a large amount of coverage is not independent of the subject (News reports from his own channels). Furthermore, few independent sources can't be used as most of them are of controversies, which can't be added as it would look WP:UNDUE and will be a violation of WP:BLP.

While there are some sources, I think this article is problematic on WP:ADMASK grounds. It seems like a public relations piece, and to give the topic an encyclopedic article given a quick Google search doesn't make the event seem like that big of a deal seems problematic to me. Jd027 (talk) 01:24, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

• I disagree they have more than just some sources

1. There are more than just "some sources", there quite a bit of sources and there from major names.
2. Besides sources the National Dwarf Fashion show has contributed to fashion weeks in major cities: New York, Paris, and Berlin
3. Has collaborated with the organization "Donnons Leur Une Chance" which is a big organization in France and has a french wikipedia page. I am unsure and trying to figure out how to link the french wikipedia page to the american wikipedia page.
4. Has worked with celebrities including: Jordanna James from the TV show Little Women
5. Has show cased well know designer "Lena Hoschek" who also has a wikipedia page on the french wikipedia.

Not only does The National Dwarf Fashion Show have a lot press coverage. As you can see from above and clearly states in the article they have: Worked with a well known organization, worked with celebrities and show cased works of a notable designers and contributed to the fashion weeks of major cities. It's for this reason i believe their noteworthy enough a wikipedia article

If you did you will notice that it's about a company named The National Dwarf Fashion Show that contributed to Fashion Week in major cities. The article is not about a particular event which makes me wonder did you bother to read the article at all.

None of the citations used provides a way for the one reading it to contact the company, there no phone number, address, email, etc listed. Usually in an ad or PR piece would include such

Even if a contact was provided what service would one hire them for, there an organization that works with organizations the works with people living dwarfism.

An article doesn't have to include contact information in order to be too promotional. PR is not the same as advertising, and simply increasing positive awareness of something is also a form of promotion. This article is about a company, but the first sentence after the lead says "The National Dwarf Fashion Show is an event initiated by..." The article itself doesn't seem to know how to describe it, so it's hardly surprising that an editor might find this confusing. Grayfell (talk) 03:21, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

• I'm not sure. It seems like there's might be article here somewhere, maybe, but the sources are mostly very flimsy. Most of the good sources are primarily about specific events, rather than this particular company, and most of them emphasize Creative Business House (CBH) as being the event producers with no mention of any other organization. If there is a salvageable article here, it would be about the event series, not the company:

This brief blurb from Welfare Society Territory might be usable, except at no point does it mention The National Dwarf Fashion Show. It does however mention CBH Agency

This one is comprehensive and informative, but I don't see enough info to accept that Glammonitor is a reliable source (zilch at WP:RSN). Also, as above, this is about a specific event, and not about the company. That source seems to say that the event was put on by CBH, not the National Dwarf Fashion Show. Is this article about the event, or the company? Regardless, the source doesn't appear to be usable.

The post by "Reign Entertainment" is a blog and is useless as a source. Likewise, Reality Tea doesn't appear to be a reliable source (it's used a lot on Wikipedia, apparently, but it shouldn't be, and it's not useful here).

The Mirror source doesn't seem to be loading properly. All I'm seeing is a single headline and nothing else.

The Entertainment Tonight source is okay, but less than a minute is about the show (hardly "extensive" as the article claims) and again, was about a specific event for NY Fashion Week and says "the event, from Creative Business House, was all about..." No mention of any other company.

The Lifetime link, http://www.mylifetime.com/shows/little-women-ny/video/full-episodes , says (as a URL title) "Page not found". The URL is likely too generic to be useful, anyway.

The Journal du Dimanche source is in French, but really seems like it's again saying CBH is responsible. Ditto France 24.

As for the remaining external links... Nerdypunkkid, do you actually speak French and/or Italian? Non-English sources are usable, but there needs to be something more than just a linkdump for this to be helpful. They look like event listings and gossip site blog posts. Am I wrong? Grayfell (talk) 05:47, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

• Hello again Grayfell its seems you have taken a liking to articles I have written and published on wikipedia or maybe its a liking to me, either way i'm flattered. I will address your comments shortly but I wanted to let you know that I do not actual speak nor read french nor italian but if you use google chrome to view the article it will translate it for you within a number seconds. I should have mentioned this early on in the article's talk page

The name of the company is The National Dwarf Fashion Show, who parent company is Creative Business House, which puts on a series of events which is known as The National Dwarf Fashion Show, yes this is confusing and I understand, not that its pointed out. I'm in the process of redoing writing the article to clear this up.

The Lifetime link has been fixed and there is no problem other than slow loading with the Mirror source and the Welfare Society Territory citation one can assume upon reading it within the context of other citations that what they are discussing is the National Dwarf Fashion Show

The link dump was done to show that they were many other articles written about the National Dwarf Fashion Show and their placement in external links was only temporarily and they will soon be incorporated as citations within the article

Besides the press coverage (I will address your comments later regarding them and fixing the links now) The Dwarf Fashion Show has collaborated with Donnons leur une chance (https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donnons_leur_une_chance) and show cased Lena Hoschek (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lena_Hoschek) spring collection. Both the organization and the designer have a wikipedia page and are there for notable according to wikipedia guidelines. Since they collaborated and show cased work that should help with The Nation Dwarf Fashion Show's notability.

Nerdypunkkid (talk) 07:34, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Because of your past history of spam and creating excessively promotional articles ([25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] etc.) I've kept your talk page on my watchlist, which brought this article to my attention. If you feel this is WP:WIKIHOUNDING or is otherwise inappropriate, you are free to seek dispute resolution or bring it up at WP:ANI.

As for the sources, you do not need to use Chrome to use Google Translate. The reason I asked was because relying on Google Translate is not great, and is a common pitfall. See WP:MACHINETRANSLATION and WP:NONENG. Google translate and similar are often wrong or stilted or misleading. All of the template:cites includes fields for translated titles ("trans-title=" I think), but the original untranslated title should always be included first and foremost. If the link goes dead, the original title is what is used to track down the source, not the translated version which is often stilted or just wrong.

The French or German Wikipedias' notability guidelines do not automatically apply to this Wikipedia. Not everything on a non-English Wikipedia is expected to be translated (see WP:TRANSLATION). The French article especially has serious sourcing problems itself, and regardless, having worked with a notable organization doesn't confer notability (WP:NOTINHERITED). The sources are still overwhelmingly focused on individual shows, not the larger organization, and the indiscriminate nature of the links is Wikipedia:Bombardment, which doesn't comply with WP:RS and WP:N guidelines.

I eventually got the Mirror article load. It's very, very vague. It includes no details about the organization of the show, and doesn't even explain where the show happened. Additionally, as this AP blurb makes clear, this was a student show held at FOM University of Applied Sciences for Economics and Management, a school which apparently doesn't grant any fashion-related degrees. It's usable, but very weak. Grayfell (talk) 01:26, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

• Delete - fails notability per WP:GNG. I am not finding significant coverage. The article is not well written (almost entirely fluff) and gives no specifics whatsoever. In the lede it says "The National Dwarf Fashion Show is a company" and then in the next section says "The National Dwarf Fashion Show is an event." I don't know if it is an event, such as one that might be held annually, or if it simply is a fashion company that provides models for other events, such as NY/Paris Fashion Week etc. But I didn't find significant coverage either way. By the way, there are many editors on the English Wikipedia who are fluent in French or German, so that is not an issue. —Мандичка^YO 😜 11:12, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

• Contesting the deletion

Based on my understanding and reviewing the references, the national dwarf fashion show is a separate entity from CBH which is like the founding father of The national dwarf fashion show. It might be confusing as the national dwarf fashion show designates in its appellation an event while being a legal entity.

Being polyglotte, I was able to dissect the media coverage received by the national dwarf fashion show and the one received in France is comparatively bigger than the one received in the USA as TF1, france 24, JDD are well established and pillars in the news domain. The national dwarf fashion show has made a significative impact by widening the field of modelling to women disabled by dwarfism — Preceding unsigned comment added by Philanthropiste75 (talk • contribs) 14:56, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

• Delete Right now this is an article about a company. The sources cited do not establish WP:GNG for the company, so overall, the article should be deleted. However, some of the content in this article is about an event which may be notable. All of this is poorly sourced in English, but Philanthropiste75 suggests that the coverage is better in other languages. Anyone could salvage some of this content to make an event article but for the company I see no reason provided which justifies keeping it. Blue Rasberry (talk) 15:32, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Wildes & Weinberg

Wildes & Weinberg (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

The lawyers employed by this company, particularly Michael Wildes, certainly seem notable, and there is a depth of coverage from multiple sources. As for the firm he is employed by, I have been unable to find even one reliable source which discusses "Wildes & Weinberg" (not just its lawyers). Their is trivial mention of the firm's name, and the firm does not automatically inherit the notability of those employed by it. Magnolia677 (talk) 01:03, 18 July 2015 (UTC) Magnolia677 (talk) 01:03, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

• Keep. "Wildes & Weinberg" is mentioned here, here, here, and here, just to list a few sources I found after one search. More importantly though, the firm is notable because of the number of high profile cases it has dealt with, most of which are listed here. Though Michael Wildes is the most famous lawyer at the firm, he doesn't make the firm notable--the cases and clients the firm represents are what makes it notable. Obviously since Michael Wildes is the managing partner, his page lists those cases--but they are really the firms' cases. Much as Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher lists it's notable cases, Wildes & Weinberg should too. Ashershow1_{talk•contribs} 01:45, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Comment - While I am grateful to User_talk:Ashershow1 for taking the time to provide those external links, I tend to agree with User:Rpclod. I have summarized below the contribution each external link listed above might make to enhancing the notability of the article Wildes & Weinberg:

• [32] - This article is an interview with Michael Wildes, a notable partner at the firm. In the article, just three sentences are devoted to the firm--Wildes & Weinberg--the topic of this Wikipedia article. The first sentence is about the range of corporate clients and services; the second and third sentence list the firm's "distinguished clientele".
• [33] - The extent of coverage about Wildes & Weinberg in this article is as follows: "Michael Wildes, managing partner of Wildes & Weinberg, a New York City-based immigration law firm, said in an email that some of his clients were losing hope. "Many are hesitating to move forward," he said."

• Google Translate can give you the jist enough to know if the subject is being discussed in depth in reliable sources. FYI the Chinese-language Wikipedia is not great; there is a Chinese knockoff of Wikipedia called Baidu Baike that is HUGELY popular (11.5 million articles - the English-language Wikipedia has only 4.5 million or so... though Baidu is a lot less strict than Wikipedia) and Meici has an article there.[41] —Мандичка^YO 😜 03:37, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

• It might be helpful if that link was pointing to the article on Baidu Baike [42] rather than Hudong Baike. But like other language Wikipedias, both online user-generated encyclopedias have different inclusion thresholds so comparing them is about as useful as suggesting that WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Especially when neither article includes secondary sources to meet the notability criteria for this encyclopedia. None of the references above refer to the company as "China's largest online retailer for authentic luxury goods" (the first link is dead, the next two mention investments from Sanpower and the last discusses its recent 7th anniversary) and the University of Pennsylvania source does not state that "China has very few online retailers" - the article discusses (in English) the lack of online presence from Chinese high street stores. The first claim is dubious at best, the second (as stated in the UPenn source - Hundreds of other players are tussling for the remainder of the market) is patently wrong.

Basically original research and all my searches found nothing for this specifically. A look at the author's user talkpage shows they made two other articles that have also been deleted and I see nothing to save this one. As always, Calamondin12 is welcome to comment.

Delete. Google shows no indication that this term has ever been used on this planet apart from this article. Essentially appears to be WP:MADEUP with a heavy dose of WP:OR. The description of the concept itself seems to make little sense. Calamondin12 (talk) 12:27, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

• Delete. A perfect example of someone who meets the CSD significance criteria but not WP:N. Specifically, he fails WP:Notability (music)#Criteria for composers and lyricists; he does come close, but I don't think the Vanguard feature satisfies criterion #4.

• Delete I don't really think A7 is applicable as the 'Eurovision Times Song Contest' itself isn't the subject (but I'm not going to object if another admin thinks it is). The 'performance' of a country in it is definitely not notable, especially as it most of the population of Malta (or the other places) are probably unaware that their country is in it. I can't see how they've had three annual contests since 2014, but in the deleted (author request) article about the contest, it said four contests. This is going to be of little interest to anyone other than the people who created it or those bored enough to find it and vote in it. Peridon (talk) 19:32, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
