After peeling away the passing mentions and promotional junk, there's very little left. They do contests and freebies with a few other companies, and some sites have published "gift-guide" type puff-pieces with/about them, but independent coverage of the company is limited to one brief Daily Dot article and one brief Gizmodo article, which are both on the flimsy side as reliable sources.

Really this is too soon. Schools close all the time, yes there was a terrorist threat but Wikipedia is not a newspaper and this type of event does not warrant a standalone article. Mrfrobinson (talk) 23:02, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Was it closed because someone panicked when he receive a hoax threat via email?Edison (talk) 02:01, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Further Comment There is an inherent prejudice against articles about current news events. While it is likely chaos caused by a panicked school board (affecting 640,000 students), we don't know what is the true story yet. It has been judged a hoax by the LAPD. What we can justify is covering such a major event, hoax or not, because it clearly meets WP:GNG. I'm avoiding a keep vote for now because I don't want to keep a junk article, but as future ramifications warrant, there is no reason for wikipedia to panic and remove it prematurely.

  • Delete This had all the impact of your average snow day, only with media overhype behind this one and a different closing reason than usual. At best the one line at Los Angeles Unified School District#Received threat is all that needs to be said about it unless something more comes out about bungled handling or the like.

  • Keep or redirect - AFAIK, this is the first time in history that a threat like this has shut down an entire school district of over half a million people for an entire day. NYPD is criticizing the LAPD for overreacting, and this could potentially result in a change in policy. However, if the article cannot be kept, @Mrfrobinson:, @Mlpearc:, @Ueutyi:, @Ansh666:, @Mrschimpf: and @Gene93k: should give a reason why it should not be redirected to "Los Angeles Unified School District" per WP:CHEAP. --Jax 0677 (talk) 14:23, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    I have no problem with a redirect. Mlpearc (open channel) 17:22, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    I already stated that I don't believe the current title to be a plausible search term. ansh666 23:36, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect or Smerge (slight merge) to Los Angeles Unified School District. It deserves a brief mention there. The news media worldwide considered it to be more important than one snow day in terms of the coverage it got. As Jax said, I cannot think of a large city ever shutting down the entire school system (with the lost pay of parents and the potential risks to children, and the possible cost of a additional school day, or loss of federal subsidies based on attendance) as the result of a threat which the New York authorities judged to be a crude hoax. This empowers any vandal worldwide who has access to the internet and some way of falsifying the originating IP. Edison (talk) 15:16, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep and expand. Easily meets the requirements under WP:NEVENT including WP:LASTING as it has extensive national and international news coverage and will undoubtedly be studied for the different approaches and responses to apparent terror threats by L.A. and New York officials, what's considered credible, etc. I guarantee for years to come this incident will be considered when future terror threats occur and officials have to make decisions. Also there are a lot of aspects to consider including the economic impact of shutting down the districts which caused hundreds of thousands of parents & guardians to adjust their work schedule or take off work completely.

  • Delete this is a total non-event, about as consequential as to whether a large school district calls a snow day, and it doesn't snow. Those who edit the school district article can determine whether this is important enough to list there. μηδείς (talk) 03:53, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, sources suggest notability. Everyking (talk) 14:49, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep and continue to add content as investigation continues. This meets the requirements under WP:NEVENT for the reasons Raitchison mentioned and that there are a large number of recent bomb threats to schools in the news now that may have been inspired by this one. This article should be kept while the investigation of this and the other bomb threats continue and more information comes out.

  • Keep as per User:Raitchison, and Note similarity to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2015 Brussels lockdown, which was kept.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:57, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Hardly equivalent. The lockdown of a whole capital city following a genuine and major terrorist incident as against closure of a city's schools because of a vague threat that wasn't taken seriously elsewhere. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:48, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete/Redirect - To Los Angeles Unified School District as this article seems like a total mess and isn't very credible, and plain out seems like a news story.
Notes about the article - About the email, the two sentences contradict each other and with no further information it doesn't really seem necessary. With the death of the student Andres Perez, (I know its tragic and may he Rest in Peace) his death was an indirect event that happened and had nothing to do with the threat at all. If these threats happened often, the article is no more than a run of the mill, except this time there was wide-media coverage, but that doesn't make it news worthy of an article by itself. However this information could be used (with improvement) on the LAUSD page, rather than being its own article. Adog104 Talk to me 21:56, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. This topic is not encylopaedic, and its inclusion in the encylopaedia is an example of WP:UNDUE weight caused by an over-adherence to the twenty-four news cycle on the part of some of our editors. We must remember the Wikipedia is not a news source, and writes with a long term significance in mind. This fails WP:EVENT. RGloucester 18:28, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note that broad gauge perspectives: [1] on this starting to appear, making the even loom more notable.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:42, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
None of the other school closings mentioned by that article have articles, nor should this one. RGloucester 18:52, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
But what is the proper redirect target when we have a nationwide spate of school closures, each to the District? An article on American fears og terrorist attack in response to Paris and San Bernardino? The phenomenon (faux threats, real threats, massive school closings) is real.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:14, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's recentism, nothing else. We shan't know anything about a "phenomenon" of this sort for many years. History only becomes apparent after it has passed. You take a journalistic approach where a historical approach is needed. If a "phenomenon" of this sort is truly recorded in the history books in five years' time, then we can write an article on it. RGloucester 19:49, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Los Angeles Unified School District. This course of action seems more sufficient for encyclopedic coverage of this event. Parsley Man (talk) 05:26, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question Of course wikipedia is not a newspaper -- it does not allow original research. However, it does allow us to regurgitate information available on reliable sources, which this article has plenty of. As far as not news -- when is the last time participants here looked at In the news? If I am missing something, please educate me. Thanks in advance, Ottawahitech (talk) 03:18, 22 December 2015 (UTC)please ping me[reply]
  • wikipedias in the news covers major encyclopedic events with established notability. Not every world event belongs here nor is it appropriate to add every news story about notable events to pages. For example, adding so and so reported an event to a companies page isn't necessarily appropriate every time they are mentioned in the news. Mrfrobinson (talk) 05:17, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Vincent Canfield has been issued a subpoena
  2. Cortines recently resigned as superintendent
  3. More than one dozen additional schools and districts in the United States have received similar threats days AFTER this happened
  4. An arrest has finally been made in New Mexico
  5. KUTV published an article where numerous experts spoke in detail about how organizations can and should respond to similar threats
  6. @Medeis:, @Adog104:, @RGloucester:, @Ohnoitsjamie:, @Mrfrobinson:, @Ueutyi:, @Mrschimpf: and @Gene93k: have yet to indicate why the article should not be redirected
Honestly, it seems to me that there is great potential for policy and procedure changes as a result of this incident, and the publicity that surrounds it. It may not be prudent to delete this article right away, until we know what changes may take place as a result of this incident. Additionaly, with the article being this size, it would be an incredible feat to merge it into Los Angeles Unified School District. --Jax 0677 (talk) 00:21, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • If you are going to ping me, at least pay attention to the fact that I said it was up to the editors of the district article to decide if the incident was worth inclusion in the wider article. I still argue that a separate article is entirely unjustified. I am reminded of various NYC blizzard "scandals" of the same effect and magnitude that are mere footnotes to the mayoralties of previous officeholders. μηδείς (talk) 01:06, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I still stand by my !vote but have no feeling one way or another about a redirect if others feel it appropriate; nothing new seems to have come to the table (point by point; investigation ongoing, a superintendent's resignation has nothing to do with anything, copycat calls in other districts weren't unexpected, again, investigation ongoing, and who gives a flip what the security pundit community that exists to push their agendas/products cares about this story, let's hear from people actually involved with it?). There's nothing to really merge outside a few lines which can compactly describe what happened in the LAUSD article, but I still feel it has the impact of an average snow day. Nate (chatter) 09:55, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I didn't get a ping, but coming across this again I still stand by my delete and merge vote. I know Jax these news articles are a touchy subject (since this), but even if a subject is covered it doesn't mean its article worthy by itself WP:NOTNEWS. Besides, these threats happen a lot which has even been stated by news sources. Adog104 Talk to me 21:22, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable martial artist. His rank and instructor do not contribute to his notability. WP:GNG is not met because there is no significant independent coverage. Mere lists of results do not constitute significant coverage. There is no indication of fighting at the highest level (3rd at a state AAU tournament does not qualify). His championships were not at the highest level as they came in senior citizen divisions. I checked the championship events mentioned in the article. There is no indication, even at those event's results pages of what organization sponsored the Miami and Montreal tournaments, although IJF (judo's main governing body) records show they weren't sponsored by it. At the Montreal tournament he finished second out of three competitors, so he might not have won any fights if he got the first round bye. The IJF world masters championship that year was is Suwon, Korea so even for the 75+ judoka age group this wasn't the highest level and he didn't compete in Suwon. His bronze medal at the 2014 IJF Veterans competition came in a division with 4 competitors and his U.S. title in the 75-79 age group had 1 other competitor. Age group titles alone are not considered competing at the highest level. He doesn't appear at all at [2], which is another indication he didn't compete in any top level events. He fails all of the possible notability criteria--WP:GNG, WP:NSPORTS, and WP:MANOTE. Papaursa (talk) 21:59, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please observe that I have succeeded in posting significant improvements on the page now... This will be further improved by a copyrighted photograph I am inthe process of getting approval to use and additional links and dates for Bidlo's works. !!

  • Keep. Now suggesting speedy keep (see below). Based on an initial review of the sources already presented on the page, and of other sources readily visible from Google and HighBeam searches, it's evident that he's notable in the Wikipedia sense of passing WP:ARTIST, and is an important figure in the history of appropriation art. In addition to many art publications, his work has been repeatedly discussed in The New York Times (notably this 2010 article among many) and New York magazine (for example [3][4]), and in plenty of books [5]. A recent article in Artforum revisits a landmark 1999 issue of the same magazine that discussed the rise and fall of the early 1980s East Village art scene, with Bidlo (along with David Wojnarowicz) on the cover, and that identified Bidlo's 1984 "Not Andy Warhol's Factory" performance/exhibit at P.S. 1 as the "closing party for the moment at hand" [6]. The article itself appears to be written in a neutral, fact-centered manner, with no obvious controversial material either in the article or the editing history. We have been given no explanation for the OTRS request, and as things stand there's no apparent basis for this to be deleted. --Arxiloxos (talk) 19:20, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The sources provided in the article (and by Arxiloxos) demonstrate passage of GNG and ARTIST. The article is neutrally written and I don't see any obvious bias. While it could be improved further, IDONTLIKEIT isn't a valid reason for deleting a page (via OTRS or otherwise). Bluerasberry, what's the complaint in the ticket that would explain such a nomination? Primefac (talk) 20:07, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Primefac I should not speak for the person who wrote in and I do not have copyright permission to copy their text here. I did give them the link to this discussion if they wish to participate. Their email began with the request to delete the article or to change it. In my opinion, some of the changes they requested are not typical for inclusion in a Wikipedia article, but in any case, the email contained a request for deletion. They went on to say they might offer a new version in the future. Blue Rasberry (talk) 20:42, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Blue Rasberry it's very difficult to give a properly reasoned response to this deletion request without knowing the general reason for the original OTRS deletion request. I understand that you can't divulge specifics, nor the exact text of the email, but a general synopsis / summary of the OTRS request is required for this to be an informed discussion. Its sound suspisciously like "I think I could provide a better version" ("they might offer a new version in the future") which is just IDONTLIKEIT in different clothing. That's not how Wikipedia works. As far as I can see, there are no BLP issues, the sources stack up and without further information on the OTRS deletion request, it's a KEEP from me. We can't be expected to discuss these issues in an information vacuum. --Cactus.man 21:58, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Cactus.man What I did was not the best way for anyone. I will manage these requests differently in the future and tell others what I learned. Blue Rasberry (talk) 15:13, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Yesterday I emailed Wikipedia suggesting that the bio be removed in order to replace it with a comprehensive profile... I did not intend that the profile not exist. I have added a bibliography and begun to update and improve the existing profile. I am getting permission to use a copyrighted image of Mike Bidlo rather than a reproduction of a "Not Pollock” painting, which seems in itself to be an improvement on a "Profile" page. L.

I am nominating this article for deletion because this article is basically self promotion of a company that has contributed nothing of significance to the HR industry does nothing different from the 10,000s of other software companies out in the world who would not qualify for a Wikipedia page. I've tried to work with this company to really increase the relevance of this page - which has resulted in them removing my edits - because it dilutes the brand. Wikipedia is not a google ranking mechanism - which is all they are using it for. This page contains no value, there are many other pages that take about HR software and business , that are more relevant.

  • Userfy: Being a non-English product with no English releases makes it difficult to simply declare it non-notable. In expanded WP:BEFORE it does appear to be sourcable, so I'd suggest it be returned to its author for more work to bring it into line with WP:MOS and WP:N.

  • Comment I suggest that to call someone notable on the basis of being the __th most notable woman in whatever is condescending and sexist and implies lower standards. The first woman to have entered a profession previously closed to them is of course notable historically but that's a different matter, because there we go by historical standards, which were in fact sexist. I recognize that there is still remanants of this is some fields today, which may provide a counterargument, but I still think it condescending. DGG ( talk ) 02:04, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately the PROD was removed by 78.26 so here we are for a full AfD and I confirm what I said with my PROD "Likely even speedy material if it wasn't for the current amount of bands but searches unsurprisingly found nothing but then again this seems like an independent obscure field and area.". My searches simply found nothing better to suggest this is a notable and otherwise considerably known record label and I've actually also nominated several of the listed bands for deletion (Pale Forest was speedied as A7 with hardly much content to begin with) as they seemed non-notable with no obvious improvement and then there are also some that have no article at all (red links).

  • Comment - really? It's unfortunate to have a discussion? That's interesting. I think that a label that has been around for longer than a decade, and has signed more than 30 bands with wikipedia articles might deserve to be looked into a bit before being deleted by uncontested prod. Maybe it's not notable, this isn't my type of music, and I don't know anything (yet) about the label, but what's wrong with looking a bit deeper, and hopefully by several editors knowledgeable about the subject? 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 14:31, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I think we need someone who is more familiar with search results in French. There are a ton of references but I am not going to copy and paste them all into Google Translate and then try to figure out which publications are realiable. In English, there are quite a few sources, not just band signings. If you search Google Books [9] you will find quite a few mentions in books on metal. Not sure how much coverage you would require. I understand that record labels are companies, but when you have one with so many signed bands and nothing other than mentions of signings, this could be a case for ignore all rules. Just my humble opinion. --CNMall41 (talk) 09:08, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - searching google books and google news, this appears to be a MAJOR player in the European metal music scene. Not my type of music at all, but the fact there are more than 40 notable bands that have at one point signed to the label, and the broad geographic coverage their album releases have received indicates that this label is having significant impact on culture, and is worthy of an encyclopedic entry. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 17:19, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Allow me to break up my argument into the following:
  1. Google Books: 7 hits, 6 of which are copies of Wikipedia content (=not a reliable source). That 1 other hit is his name in a credits list (=not enough coverage). Ergo: fails WP:GNG.
  2. Google News: 5 hits, 4 of which mention someone else with the same name (=irrelevant sources). That other 1 hit is the poet Rehan Azmi mentioned in a list of attendees of a funeral (=not enough coverage). Ergo: fails WP:GNG.
  3. Note about using Dawn as a source: this "newspaper" claims that Rehan Azmi is mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records as the 7th speediest writer of poetry. Record for being the 7TH, seriously? Looking at the wikipage history, this dubious "fact" was present since the beginning in 2009, while Dawn published its article in May 2012. Seems like they copied Wikipedia without actually checking Guinness (he really does not show up there when searching for "Rehan Azmi", you can check for yourself). In other words, I doubt that Dawn is a reliable newspaper.
  4. Remaining sources (al-qayim.tv and shiamultimedia.com) are even more WP:QUESTIONABLE.
Total verdict: there are is not enough reliable information available for us to write a reliably sourced article, thus Rehan Azmi fails the general notability guideline and this article should be deleted. - HyperGaruda (talk) 19:48, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Somewhat off-topic theory about quality variation in Dawn
@GorgeCustersSabre: I was also quite surprised that there was such low quality content in one of the oldest English-language newspapers of Pakistan. But I think I have a theory about that. Recently I've been cleaning up Mai Safoora, which referred to only 1 source: DAWN. I found it somewhat awkward that the news article started with what seems to be an advert and the rest of the text did not seem to be written by a professional journalist. Then I checked the author: "From the newspaper", the same "author" who published the article I had linked earlier. After browsing through "From the newspaper"'s articles, it occurred to me that this specific "author" is probably where readers' letters are sent to and indeed many of its articles are signed at the bottom by people who clearly are no journalists, like here. In all, I would say that Dawn's articles are only reliable sources if they have been published by non-random authors, such as this article by Atika Rehman & Ali Akbar and this one by the "The Newspaper's Staff Reporter". We should definitely be careful with articles published by "From the newspaper". - HyperGaruda (talk) 18:30, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

These songs do have Historical significance in Canadian Music and relevancy. The CHEER Music Pool Chart was reporting at a time when (which has link to verify its existence) this genre of music was being suppressed. It was a pioneer chart reporting rap/urban music in Canada in its infancy. The artists on the chart that surround MC Shadow are undisputable international music & entertainment icons. They are respected and notable pioneers in the US created music form. The fact that this Canadian artist in his teens was ranked alongside these artists that were already established is remarkable and 'encyclopeic' in spirit and in content! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oldschoolmc (talkcontribs) 02:21, 3 December 2015 (UTC) Get Loose Crew Song is also, significant to the Canadian Music Genre and the genre as the artists historic significance within Canada and Globally. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oldschoolmc (talkcontribs) 02:26, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think Maestro Fresh Wes, Dream Warriors, MCJ and Cool G and Devon, who all got onto actual wikinotable IFPI-certified charts, would be fascinated to hear that this "CHEER Music Pool Chart" (a private service of a membership organization for club DJs, not certified by any chart licensing agency or covered by any reliable sources besides itself) was the only chart a Canadian hip hop song could possibly have appeared on in that era. And what's "encyclopedic in spirit and in content" is reliable source coverage, of which exactly none has been shown here, not opinion-based assertions of how "remarkable" you personally think any unsourced accomplishment may have been. And if you think I'm being dismissive of the genre, you might want to check the edit history on Canadian hip hop to see who originally created it in the first place, and has been the single most frequent editor of it since. I'm fully aware of the barriers to mainstream attention that have often plagued Canadian hip hop, but it isn't Wikipedia's job to rectify that imbalance ourselves, if we have to lean on unreliable sources, assertions of private personal knowledge whose accuracy we have no way of verifying because they aren't sourced at all, and/or non-notable record charts to do it.

  • Keep practice so far has been that preserved locos either on display or in working order during preservation have been seen as notable. The article does need sourcing, but that shouldn't be too hard.
We don't have an article to merge this to. Preserved BR Standard Class 4 2-6-0 might do it, but we don't have such an article. I would see it as WP:undue to use the article on the class working under BR as a preservation list. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:35, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nominating for AfD after PROD was removed by Megalibrarygirl including after it was endorsed by Plutonium27. I still echo and confirm my original PROD here and I should also note this article was actually deleted twice in 2005 at German Wiki apparently at the exact time this English Wiki article was started (first time at both De. and En. Wikis were December 5, 2005), so that also questions this article. If this can actually be kept and better improved, anyone should feel welcome as this looks like a classic 2005-2007 Wiki article, but all signs are suggesting there's no considerable improvement.

  • Comment I deprodded because no improvement over time is not a reason to delete. I stand by that, SwisterTwister. I believe Wikipedia is better served by improving and sourcing more articles rather than deleting--unless there is no other recourse. In my participation in AfD, I have seen several articles marked by various editors as "no room for improvement" or "no sources found" which later went on to be significantly sourced by other editors and saved from the deletion process. Because of this, I am skeptical of the claim that there is no room for improvement and I welcome the article in the AfD process instead of speedy delete. I hope that this AfD will bring more eyes to the article which needs someone who is fluent in German. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 14:33, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I've removed unsourced material and added some references. I'm not fluent in German though, so I'm not sure of her notability still. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 15:20, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"I welcome the article in the AfD process instead of speedy delete." This article was nominated for WP:Proposed deletion not WP:Speedy deletion. There is a marked difference between the two. Plutonium27 (talk) 02:07, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, Plutonium27 for not using the right terminology--I think you know what I meant, though. I felt that this article would be better served by more eyes than just silently deleting through the "prod" process, that's all. I was hoping that someone might know whether any of the sources I found were notable or not. Seems like there aren't, but I'm glad it had others looking at it to be sure. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:35, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep, and I don't hand those out often. Easily passes WP:GNG and WP:ARTIST as there are multiple, non-trivial, independent, reliable sources about him and his body of work online, in the news, in books, and in scholarly works. He has been called a "visionary", "key", "prominent", "internationally acclaimed", " renowned", "award-winning", etc., and none of this is because of the online propagation of his own self-promotion as is often the case with non-notable individuals. I have added to the article to reflect some of this notability. As an aside, this has been prodded twice and now is up for a 2nd AfD. Did no one do WP:BEFORE or is there some conflict with the hockey community of which we need to be aware? This seems to be put up for deletion for no reason other than WP:NOTMYTOPICAREA but maybe I'm not assuming good faith here.

  • I believe the subject probably meets WP:CORP. I will try and add some sources to show this in the next few days. The article is promotional in places but does not rise to WP:G11 which is the criterion it was speedily deleted. I have no objection to reducing the article to a stub to appease concerns over the writing style. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 17:12, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    I realize this article needs to be rewritten. However, taking out valid HealthGrades data and the references supporting the data seems to me counterproductive. Bill Pollard (talk) 04:34, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    I may have been a little too ruthless, but the detail seemed a bit excessive. We are never going to be able to provide as much reliable information as HealthGrades, and keeping it up-to-date is a challenge, so why try? A summary might be appropriate though. Feel free to add back whatever you feel is right, and sorry for undoing your work. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:39, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    Actually I did try to summarize the HealthGrades data, as there is probably 10 times more than I used. Anyway, we have similar problems keeping many articles updated. I really think if this article is deleted, the three individual hospitals need their own articles and I sort of think this should be done anyway. There is material about the individual hospitals online, while not so much about the parent company. Bill Pollard (talk) 11:56, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have looked at all three hospitals and can say they all meet WP:NHOSPITALS criteria well enough to qualify. HealthGrades itself has abundant material online on all three. In fact, I have found it unusual for hospitals to not have stand-alone articles. I think Excela Health is itself notable, although the article in question is poorly written.

I came across this group via the related AfD for one of their awards.

I noted that the PCC was very recently founded (September 2014) and a search didn't bring up anything that would show that it would pass notability guidelines at this point in time. The coverage is predominantly through blogs and similar SPS. The AZ Central hosted their ballots, but a look at the article shows that it was written by one of their members, which makes it a primary source. I do see that the awards got mentioned here, but I don't know that Awards Daily would be a RS per Wikipedia's guidelines. I just don't know that this would really be enough to show that this relatively new organization is notable. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:57, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have no problem with the article getting recreated in the future when the coverage becomes much heavier, but I will caution that it's very difficult for organizations as a whole to pass GNG on Wikipedia because WP:CORP (which also encompasses organizations both big and small) has one of the higher bars set as far as notability goes on here. I will note that there's also a template (Template:Phoenix Critics Circle Awards) that will need to be speedied or MfD'd when/if these articles are deleted.

  • On a side note, though, if Nauriya wants to userfy any of this if the pages do get deleted, I have zero problem with that. It might be a long while before PCC passes guidelines since it can take years for film organizations to really become established, but there's no reason why you can't do this - I've held on to userpages for a while myself on occasion.

Contested prod, but the reasons given for the removal of the prod (see the talk page of the article) aren't convincing to me.

These statistics don't seem to have any notability and aren't needed to understand the main page. Instead of having them placed on a separate page, they could and should simply have been removed. (Specifically listing people here who have opted out of being listed on the official database site is not a good thing either under WP:BLP, but is not in itself a reason for deletion).

  • Delete per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. I was expecting to see some discussion about how many ACs were awarded for specific types of endeavour (philanthropy, business, military etc), but I can't even work out what this article is about. Although not quite WP:GIBBERISH, it is pretty much incomprehensible to a general audience. I'd suggest WP:IMPROVEing the article, but I'm not even sure what you'd work towards. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 01:55, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion/dated |concern = These statistics don't seem to have any notability and aren't needed to understand the main page. (Specifically listing people here who have opted out of being listed on the official database site is not a good thing either). |timestamp = 20151208102944
Several issues:
1) The top of the page says:
This page is a continuation of List of Companions of the Order of Australia
(For technical reasons, these sections have been placed on a separate page.) Clarification: because that page is already quite big.
This information could be returned to the relevant section of the page from which they have been separated, but that page is already quite big, (which is why they were split off into a separate page).
2) Statistics are facts about facts. I'm not sure what notability has to do with it. I believe that there is no doubt that the facts (i.e. the Companions of the Order of Australia), are notable.
3) "aren't needed".
a) This is your opinion - it is NOT a fact - and you do not explain why.
b) Absolutely NONE of Wikipedia is "needed" - the world managed perfectly well before Wikipedia existed - why just pick on this page?
4) "(Specifically listing people here who have opted out of being listed on the official database site is not a good thing either)."
Why not? This is public information published on official government websites for which references have been provided.
Again, this is your opinion - it is NOT a fact - and you do not explain why.

    • Contested prod, but the reasons given for the removal of the prod (see the talk page of the article) aren't convincing to me. Well, as I implied on the talk page, the original reasons "aren't convincing to me", either, but at least I stated why.
    • Could someone please explain what is incomprehensible?
    • How many of each type were announced/awarded by date is not terribly notable - This is an opinion, not a fact.
    • but I can't even work out what this article is about - Really? (I think the title of the article makes it clearly obvious what it is about, so I don't understand how or why you can't work it out.)
    • Responses
      • What about my reasoning above constitutes an "I don't like it" argument? I have argued that this content fork does not present a clear rationale for existing separate from the main article, and is presented in a WP:TECHNICAL or confusing manner making it difficult for a general audience to understand. "Don't know why this needs to exist" is not "I don't like it". I see from the edit history that you (User:Pdfpdf) created the page in the first place; can you explain what you mean by "technical reasons" necessitating the new page? I was unable to find any discussion about this on the talk pages. I can certainly see the rationale for having a subheading for yearly summaries, but disagree that this requires an entirely new page. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 03:47, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      • Also, the bit I found "incomprehensible" was the fact that it is not apparent what either the list headings or the numbers within refer to. I assume, having read through the rest of the page and the parent page, that it refers to the number of ACs awarded in that year, under the General (G), Military (M) or Honorary (H) categories, but at first glance the reader does not have sufficient information to work out what is being presented. The "It's an honour" section is still confusing (and contains OR in that it explicitly contradicts the primary reference). A more thorough introduction to each section might help with the confusion, but my criticism above would still stand.--Yeti Hunter (talk) 03:56, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        • "How many of each type were announced/awarded by date is not terribly notable - This is an opinion, not a fact." Allright, then prove to us that it is notable, that reliable independent sources have given significant attention to these statistics. Not to the awards themselves, these are notable of course, but specifically to these statistics. Deletion reason: not notable, not "I don't like it". Fram (talk) 07:36, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I've opened an AfD for the PCC itself and the other award pages here. To sum things up as a whole about the organization, while looking for sources I found that there really wasn't any coverage about the PCC that wasn't primary, self-published, or in a location that Wikipedia would consider to be notable. Sometimes an award can gain coverage by reliable sources reporting on the results, but I didn't see where anyone had really covered these awards at all, not even to list that they were handed out. I think that part of this is because the organization is fairly new, as it was founded in September 2014, making it about a little over a year old. So far no one has really commented on them or the awards anywhere. The only halfway decent coverage came from a ballot mention in AZ Central by a group member (making it primary) and a listing of results by Filmreel, which I'm not entirely sure would be considered a RS by Wikipedia. Even if Filmreel was usable, they're the only ones that are actually reporting the results and it wouldn't be enough by itself to show notability. It's incredibly difficult for organizations to pass GNG on Wikipedia because the bar for notability is much higher, so I think that it's at best WP:TOOSOON for the group or any of its awards to have articles.

  • Delete Yeah, what he said. Not notable, no possibility of notability, not a valid article. — Smuckola(talk) 03:31, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
So far, everybody is baselessly stating that it's notable, but I'd really appreciate a policy-based explanation why an article like this is WP:N. I don't understand why any of the content is notable, and if it is, then it must satisfy WP:N in order to get its own article at all. I don't mean to be thick or controversial, and I appreciate the favor. It seems that they all need to be in 'list' class and renamed to "List of...". I have seen lots of boring and untenable lists, but they're all of notable things which each have (or are expected to have) their own articles, such as video games, movies, and artists. Any other list item is removed. These articles are entirely of categorically non-notable list items and other content. It's almost like this is a list of stuff *because* it's non-notable, so we had to trump it up by creating a list of it. WP:NOTDIR Thanks. — Smuckola(talk) 16:27, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This page might answer a few of your questions. In essence, it's true that this is a list because the individual entries do not warrant their own articles. But usually the system as a whole can be seen as notable, and part of the clean-up others are mentioning would hopefully be to add a lead section about the system. Also, NOTDIR doesn't really seem to be applicable based on the 7 examples given there. WP:Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, which includes gazetteer functions.

While "surname" and "given name" are things we allow list articles like this to be created for, in reality what we normally want those to be, if at all possible, is actual articles about the names rather than just lists of people who happen to have them. But we don't have any established practice of also maintaining "middle name" articles — very nearly any "middle name" that anybody on earth could possibly be given is just a "given name" or a "surname" shifted to the middle position, rather than belonging to any class of names that's designated exclusively for "middle name" use. The dead giveaway is that there's no Category:Middle names for this to be filed in — and having scanned both Category:Given names and Category:Surnames, I can't find any evidence of any other page that's dabbed as "(middle name)" either. And at any rate, this "middle name" list is a list of one person — so it wouldn't be a useful list to maintain even if "middle name" articles were a thing Wikipedia did. Delete.

Appears to be a non-notable biography. Her roles are minor (small parts in 3 episodes of one show...one episode in another.) The movie she is the lead in is not a notable movie. She does not appear to be receiving significant coverage via reliable sources.

The 15-minute film does not (yet) seem to meet WP:NFILM, unfortunately. I can find zero coverage in reliable sources nor has it received the sort of honours or awards that would allow it meet "Other evidence of notability." I also tried searching for the filmmaker's name, perhaps because the film title would be different in non-English markets -- not much luck. I should point out that this film does have an article on Italian Wikipedia, also without reliable sources, as best I understand. I'd be happy to withdraw this if I'm mistaken; short doc films deserve more attention. There is a possibility that the article creator is the filmmaker, judging by the username and WikiCommons image, but of course that in itself would be no reason to delete an otherwise notable article.

Keep - I contested the PROD deletion as I feel the notability of this label is not best determined by the usual means - the label was actually just called "Vesuvius" and was presumably listed here as "Vesuvius Records UK" in order to avoid confusion with Vesuvius Records.

This appears to have major problems. It looks like a copyright text dump (random section number and Hill 2006 ref) but I can't find the source. The "refs" are either meaningless or primary sources undoubtedly associated with the obviously COI creator.

  • Keep Well, a COI is very possible. However the refs are not just random noise; ref (4) is valid, as is ref (5) (included on Adamopoulos's About page), which also shows that Adamopoulos is an academic (at Linnaeus University). The SPA who created the article does not share the name of any of the cited authors, by the way. A quick search shows that Krzysik 1993 is a real paper also, and retrieves books on the subject. The same goes for Takatani 2000 and Laine 2002. The topic is therefore apparently notable, and while the article needs cleanup, AfD is probably not the right forum for that purpose.

Per the reasoning at WP:NOPAGE the name of this state university student should be immortalized at Miss Connecticut USA for her WP:15MOF. WP:NOPAGE assumes notability, but argues that in some cases the information should be summarized in an appropriate list, which this is a classic example of.

Article reads in its entirety:

Ashley Golebiewski is an American beauty pageant titleholder from Berlin, Connecticut.[1] She was named Miss Connecticut USA 2015.[2][3] She went to theMiss USA 2015 pageant on July 12, 2015, but was not a finalist.[4][5][6] Golebiewski, a first-generation American, is the daughter of Mirek and Eva Golebiewski.[4] She is a 2012 graduate of Mercy High School, a private, Roman Catholic, all-girls high school in Middletown, Connecticut.[2][7] As of November 2014, she attended Central Connecticut State University, studying Business and Finance.[4] Golebiewski's first pageant win was in the Miss Polonia Connecticut pageant in 2011.[4]

  • Keep AfD 1 by Legacypac was closed as "Keep all for the time being; renominate separately--they are likely to be of unequal notability." AfD 2, again by Legacypac was closed as "Keep". The article provides reliable and verifiable sources to support the claim of notability, one that passed community consensus just this year. This continued abuse of process needs to be put to an end once and for all; Legacypac nominating the same article over and over (and over and over) again until he gets the demanded deletion is simply disruptive.

  • 'Keep per outcome of nom 1 and nom 2 as well as Artw. -- WV 03:06, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above - Legacypac you do realize renominating again and again AND AGAIN won't get the article deleted? ..... Although I did !vote delete in the previous 2 I perhaps wasn't aware of the sources, Either way it meets GNG and it's an obvious Keep so kindly give up renominating this article and go do something productive. –Davey2010Talk 03:43, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral, without opposition to Merge/Redirect if there's an appropriate target - The article provides exclusively local and primary sources. My own search turns up a little more, but not much, and nearly all of it comes from the same span of a few days, for the same event, saying more or less the same thing. It's tenuous whether a stand-alone article is justified. But given that the nomination is ... we'll say "unconventional" ... and because sourcing isn't abominable, I'm having a hard time saying delete here. What I will say is that while this nomination is less than ideal, it is not the case that Legacypac nominated previously based on not liking the close. The first nomination, though the closer used the word "keep", was closed as a "you nominated too many", with subsequent instructions to renominate one or a few of them at a time. DGG even said of his close, "Personally, fwiw, I certainly hope most of them get deleted" (based on separate/smaller nominations). ...Anyway, I'm not trying to open a discussion of that first AfD here -- my only point for bringing it up is because it seems like Legacypac is being characterized as nominating this three distinct times rather than nominating once, being directed to nominate fewer at a time so renominating, and then this one. Not that that necessarily changes anything. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 05:23, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I originally prodded this article and it went 7 days unchallenged. it was deleted, and then the admin decided to restore this with the rationale that there exists other embassies within a template. I questioned this and others have been deleted to. the discussion with the admin is here, however they have not responded to my questions to explain how the rationale to restore a deleted article is flawed. so now I'm at AfD LibStar (talk) 06:31, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Embassies can certainly qualify for Wikipedia articles if they can be well-sourced over WP:GNG and/or WP:ORG — but they don't get an automatic entitlement to keep a poorly sourced or unsourced article just because they exist. Redirect to Canada–Ethiopia relations, a logical place for a topic of this type to be discussed if it hasn't earned a standalone article of its own.

Delete and this from an inclusionist. While there's not requirement that an album be on Google Music (there are rights negotiations, after all), or indeed any online music store, the albums on Apple Music appear to be self-published. On the other hand, I did find a review of one such album from what might be a reliable source. We might need to get a weigh-in from someone who can check French-language sources. If the article stays, it definitely needs rewrites from its promotional style. Thisisnotatest (talk) 05:34, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is an entirely obvious definition of a generic term. This is not an encyclopedic subject, and it's not an encyclopedia article. The citations are either WP:EL posed as fake citations or just general coursework. The rest is WP:NOTDIR. The content was abandoned, as there is no encyclopedic premise or possibility for expansion. — Smuckola(talk) 20:41, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

delete - I previously nominated this article for deletion, and I still think it ought to be deleted. Yes, the word seminar is often used with the word senior preceding it as a qualifier, however it does nto follow that this is a notable topic. --Salimfadhley (talk) 00:34, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into seminar or some other related article, I think the information is suitable for the encyclopedia, but not as a standalone article. Also it's not really WP:NOTDIR because knowing where such courses are offered is relevant information.--Prisencolin (talk) 01:47, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Delete or Merge into seminar for reasons indicated previously. No references. Generic (and non-encyclopedic) discussion. 7&6=thirteen () 19:33, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Your username is too broken to function in a notification template, so I don't know if you'll see this. The prose is written in a vague yet globally subjective way, so it is entirely unencyclopedic. As such, there's nothing to merge unless you call the salvaging of a sentence fragment or two for some reason a "merge". There's just no meaningful content here, as the reader would need to already know everything about the subject in order to decipher it. It should have never been created. Thank you. — Smuckola(talk) 12:51, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
