St Catherine's School Halifax[edit]

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

Non-notable school. Unable to find significant third party coverage. But for the exemption from A7, I would have nominated for speedy. --Non-Dropframe _talk 23:50, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Halifax Regional School Board, per our usual practice for non-high schools. If anyone wants to look at it, the school's webpage is here. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:19, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Clearly not notable. I think this might qualify for WP:PROD. mikeman67 (talk) 21:13, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ Redirect Note: changed vote following Kudpung's comment, see explanation below No evidence of significant, reliable, secondary coverage. Vanamonde93 (talk) 03:35, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~Redirect to Halifax Regional School Board. I couldn't find any sources providing significant coverage, so it fails WP:GNG. APerson (talk!) 12:59, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict × 2) Changed vote to "Redirect" per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. APerson (talk!) 01:16, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Halifax Regional School Board per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 00:20, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect of course, to Halifax Regional School Board, per our usual practice for non-high schools as clearly documented at WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES and thousands of such redirects. IMO, neither Non-dropframe, Mikeman67, Vanamonde93, nor APerson have taken into account the existing consensus by precedent. AfD is not the venue for getting consensus for changing standard accepted procedures. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:27, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- @Kudpung:, I read my initial vote more as "The content on this page in unencyclopedic" rather than "this should be a redlink." I was never opposed to a redirect, and I have no intentions of challenging consensus, even if it is only consensus by precendent. In retrospect, I can see my vote coming off that way, and therefore I have amended it to the more specific "redirect." Vanamonde93 (talk) 01:14, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

*Note for closing admin: if this is closed as 'Redirect' please remember to place the {{R from school}} template on the redirect page. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:26, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

List Of Obstacles On American Ninja Warrior[edit]

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

Per WP:INDISCRIMINATE, "merely being true, or even verifiable, does not automatically make something suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia." Although descriptions of these obstacles may well be worth including, simply listing every single obstacle every time it's been used is simply a collection of indiscriminate information. --Non-Dropframe _talk 23:31, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nominator. This list originates as a section from the American Ninja Warrior article, and that list has been removed by both me and other editors for the same reason this article is up for deletion. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 14:48, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and batten down the hatches: Looking over the edit history of the creator, whose sole Wikipedia activity is based around the TV show, it's rife with edit warring and nasty edit summaries, so I suppose we ought to anticipate fireworks. Anyway, I agree with the nom: this is completely indiscriminate (never mind that the eye-blinding rainbow of colors used blows holes through the pertinent accessibility guidelines). It's also completely unsourced, and I defy anyone to come up with any reliable sources independent of the show's own websites. Wikipedia isn't a web host, and this information is better served on a fan page. Nha Trang ^Allons! 14:55, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for all the reasons given. Let it be noted that JasonNolan64 is again, or still, edit warring to insert this tripe in the main article--where it also shouldn't be, for reasons given here. Drmies (talk) 19:58, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Also, the creator, and those who like that creator fingerpaint all over the wiki, should read WP:COLOR, and maybe try to imagine how illegible their colored tables are for those with visual handicaps. Drmies (talk) 20:53, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – Completely trivial, with no encyclopedic value. RoadWarrior445 (talk) 23:50, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Seems like cruft to me. Without significant coverage in reliable sources, it doesn't need an article on Wikipedia. Anyway, no true ninja could be stopped by a mere obstacle course. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:29, 5 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pure puffery. "transformational thought leader" is pure jargon, and if that's what he's claimed to be,...

Simply move to Denmark's Next Top Model (cycle 7) - Sure this model is not notable as evident by my searches (it could be the language barrier but unlikely) but I suppose it's worth mentioning at the main article and the only thing she is best known for.

Redirect to Denmark's Next Top Model (cycle 7). Not separately notable, but might be a useful redirect; people looking for information about her probably would be doing so in the context of Denmark's Next Top Model. APerson (talk!) 13:05, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OMA PAG[edit]

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

Possibly dissolved sub-group of the OMA. A few passing mentions don't add up to notability for an own article. If the group still exists (not sure, I found only old Google hits and the group is no longer mentioned on OMA's summary list of groups), a brief mention in the main article would be sufficient. GermanJoe (talk) 22:54, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as searches found no significant and notable coverage as shown here (one link from News, DOOM Magazine), here (from Books, extremely minor mention), nothing at Highbeam and thefreelibrary and finally here (browser, various links such as LA Weekly) but nothing outstandingly significant and notable and, frankly, it doesn't take much to see this not to mention he is obscure and eccentric and that's not something that gets much attention sometimes.

There's not a lot of sources talking about this and not much to suggest notability; my searches only found one Books, some News and some browser. Maybe there are a lot of good French sources but I'm not seeing anything to suggest that and I would've suggested moving elsewhere but there's no target.

1993 Tour of Flanders[edit]

This happened a very long time ago, and I do not think it is a good article. ThatKongregateGuy (talk) 21:36, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep:May I ask why this would be too long ago? The same article features in five other languages. Other projects have made articles of every single edition of this event, dating back to 1913. There are people working very hard to fill in the gaps of non-edited runnings of the race Dr.robin 21:54, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep With all due respect, a really bad nomination based on WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Passes WP:GNG and WP:NEVENT, plus if this gets deleted, so should almost every sports article about an event prior to 1993. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:16, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

PROD with the reasoning that "All references are self-published blogs that fail WP:RS." was removed.

Weak keep. He was probably a notable artist: for example, this article in the Philippine Star describes "the late National Artist Jerry Elizalde Navarro" as "an intellectually astute and disciplined artist who helped father modern advertising in the Philippines, and was one of the key proponents in abstract painting." On the other hand, the current article gets his name backwards, and doesn't mention that he died in 1999, so we might need to take some care with the rest of its assertions. So this needs a good edit, or maybe it should get sent back to draft space until it's readier for prime time. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:49, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
On the fence but maybe keep simply because sources confirm he exists and received somewhat attention. Books found results that say "National artist" also and News also with one saying that a workshop was named for him "annual Jerry Elizalde Navarro Workshop on Arts Criticism in Baguio City" with Highbeam finding more results including one that says "pioneer artist". As is the case with most Filipino subjects, sources aren't always easy to find. SwisterTwister talk 20:52, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I have a feeling that in recent years to the importance of the artist's need to write about it in the Washington Post, no less. The artist representing his country and heads of colleagues in their own country - it is a criteria for notability Shad Innet (talk) 10:35, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment from the nominator. The article is so badly written I hadn't realized that this person is dead. That changes things up a bit as unlike people who are alive, who'd benefit from some good old-fashioned promotion like the other "artists" I nominated, the benefit of promotion is nil. –H T D 01:12, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

BrickHouse Security[edit]

Non-notable company. References contain no in depth coverage of the company. Kaimahi (talk) 08:42, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article includes several mentions in prominent news organizations of the company, its products and its founder. Bloomberg's BusinessWeek, ABC News and The NY Times are directly cited. The Youtube video itself is a compilation of several prominent media mentions of the company via television appearances by its founder on Fox News, CNN and NBC's The Today Show. I will find more third party sources and add them to the article.Timtempleton (talk) 20:06, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I added several more sources of media coverage to substantiate notability. Let's see what the consensus is.Timtempleton (talk) 22:19, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of New York-related deletion discussions. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 09:33, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I am the author of this article. I have identified extensive media coverage of the company, including The New York Times, USA Today, the Today Show and Fox News. These are all reliable sources that are independent of the subject, the significant coverage addresses the company's products directly and in detail, and is indeed even international, thereby meeting the criteria of WP:GNG. The information is all verifiable, meeting the criteria of WP:NRV. The notability is not temporary, and is not based on a single short term event, thus meeting the criteria of WP:NTEMP.

Keep but clean up ref spam. References 1, 2 6, 9, 15 are not RS. 3, 8 are just a mention. 5 does not mention it at all. 10-11 are the same story, and 12=10. 14-17 are a single story; only one is needed. 18-20 are also same story - only one needed. LaMona (talk) 17:25, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as the article has been noticeably improved since being nominated. Simply out of curiosity @LaMona: How is a local TV station not reliable? Granted the news article is not in-depth and may have information supplied by the company but generally local news can be reliable. SwisterTwister talk 06:37, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

We don't usually consider youtube to be a RS. It's the problem of "provenance" -- on youtube you don't know who is responsible for the content, and whether it has been edited. In this case, the video was uploaded by someone at Brickhouse (that's the link provided). The actual show on the site of the tv station would at least be more trustworthy. LaMona (talk) 15:26, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I wish the television appearances were all available to direct link - they may be some day as storage gets cheaper and we move to 5G 1GB/s cellular streaming. I was able to find and add a record from the NBCUniversal.com site mentioning the Today Show appearance and description, just not the actual live video that is in the YouTube compilation. The two together should meet the RS criteria. As for the other links, they are all valid media outlets. I agree that there is some repetition in content, but that's to show the breadth of company media coverage. If the AFD is closed with a Keep resolution, I'll tighten up the repetitive sourcing.Timtempleton (talk) 19:57, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I understand with the YouTube link but I was actually referring to the myfoxdc.com link. SwisterTwister talk 20:41, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't consider that one non-RS, just redundant with the four other reports of the same thing -- most likely based on the original AP story. LaMona (talk) 16:54, 5 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Io (Dungeons & Dragons)[edit]

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

Contested PROD. There are no third party sources, It has been tagged since 2008 with no evidence of anyone even trying to find sources. One of the thousands of minor minor items in in the D&D that were created before WP:GNG was widely established or it would have been deleted upon sight but now meets continual resistance from the fans who insist on drawing out process for each and every item. So here we are. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 02:36, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

History for those who might not be aware:

TSR is the company that initially created and marketed the Dungeons and Dragons game.
Wizards of the Coast WOTC bought out TSR
Piazzo Publishing was officially licensed to publish D&D materials.

Hence none of the three are independent sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 03:53, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep if more sources can be found, otherwise merge to Dragon deities. BOZ (talk) 02:45, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- so you are suggesting that the fix for there being no third party sourcing for this content is to move it to another article that fails to meet WP:GNG by having no third party sourcing? -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 04:00, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - I am. I really don't see why we need third-party RS for a stupid Dungeons and Dragons character/deity. If the primary source invented the entire thing, they'll probably get the details right. —Мандичка^YO 😜 19:15, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    - The issue isnt "factuality" it is "notability - whether the subject has been noted by reliable sources outside of those intimately involved" -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 19:23, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      - again it's a stupid fantasy game, and the Io is not supporting the whole article.... It doesn't need to meet GNG anymore than say, anyone on the List of Mama's Family characters. If the dragon gods are notable enough to have their own article, and the io is a dragon god, by all means, stick it on that page. —Мандичка^YO 😜 20:34, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        and again, that is directly the issue. There is no third party sources covering "the dragon gods" either. Taking content that fails to meet WP:GNG and mushing it into another article that fails to meet WP:GNG is a terrible non-solution to the issue. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 22:41, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Much of the mythos D&D developed came from its army of licensed and affiliated novels, so there is a pretty substantial body of . . . stuff using the framework. Who is that author? Salvatore? Anyway, this "new" deity (input/output and punning on Hawaiian aboriginal religion and all kinds of things) is fanstuff. It isn't that there isn't a lot published even about it, but rather that the stuff about it is non-independent. There are cultural studies academics who comment on this stuff, too, but. . . Wikipedia doesn't need to be the -pedia of D&D as well as Pokemon (a jibe at the old days). Hithladaeus (talk) 19:45, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I agree with TRPoD and Hithladaeus. A lot of this stuff belongs on Wikia, not Wikipedia. We've got an exhaustive collection of deities, magic items, and characters from D&D that really don't come close to satisfying the GNG. There's plenty of licensed material, but it's not independent.

Redirect or keep: I'd probably rather keep it. There's enough coverage for it - which is unusual for even established memes (even though they're in wide use [because there's not that much to report on even though they're ubiquitous to many]). And if Wikipedia intends to stay relevant and informative on many areas (saying all those that are notable in people's lives/society) it needs to recognize and integrate such. But as the article probably will never be longer than the average stub a redirect would be fine too - but then I think there should be subheaders for each entry on that list so that it can be linked properly (not just for this particular case but also for other Internet phenomena). --Fixut͉͇̞͖͉̼̭͉͓͑̈̉́͑ȗ̹̲ͨͮ̂̂̄ṙ̫̥͚͚̜͙͍̰́̈́ė̺̩̞̗̓̉ͧͩ̿ͤ̎̆ (talk) 20:00, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG. Subject was a keyboardist in a couple of bands. It was claimed at the previous AfD that he satisfied Criteria #6 of MUSICBIO. However, that criteria refers to somebody that was a prominent member of an ensemble. As keyboardist, the subject did not appear to be particularly prominent. Therefore, he fails Criteria #6 and clearly fails all other criteria. Safiel (talk) 15:44, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, same reason as last time: He's been in two bands of borderline notability. Fails WP:MUSIC and WP:GNG.

Delete. Can't see any real notability. Private who got a very minor award (at a level not even considered a true medal by many countries rather than anywhere near the level we usually require for an article - in Britain we call this level of bravery award a mention in dispatches!), wrote his memoirs and has appeared on TV talking about his experiences just like hundreds of other veterans. It's a load of old drivel that everyone who has appeared on these documentaries has or should have an article. No doubt a decent, brave man, and I'm certainly not disparaging his contribution, but certainly does not in any way pass WP:SOLDIER or any other standard of notability and is no more worthy of an article than any one of the other millions of veterans of the Second World War. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:53, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Quaff distillery[edit]

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

This seems to be a hoax. The events described in the article regarding a strong alcoholic drink brewed by the mutineers on Pitcairn Island are true and confirmed by sources, but none I can find confirm that this drink was called "Quaff"—the only citation given in the article makes no mention whatsoever of Pitcairn, HMS Bounty, etc. Article was created by Textet in December 2013 about an hour after he inserted references to "Quaff" in several Bounty-related articles (see contributions). I suspect this is some kind of joke on the English term "quaff", meaning to imbibe vigorously. In any case the article totally fails WP:VERIFICATION. — Cliftonian (talk) 14:21, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Send to the list of hoaxes or, if not a hoax, Delete as failing the general notability guidelines. --TL22 (talk) 23:06, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
HOAX -- The whole thing is highly improbable. Pitcairn island is one of the most remote in the world and it is barely (if at all) feasible for an organisation based there to have a worldwide impact. That there were murders among the Bounty mutineers (its first settlers) and that some one died by falling from a cliff on Pitcairn Island are both feasible; and these may have been drink related. However relating that to an alleged Quaff distillery seems fanciful. If the distillery exists at all, I would guess that it has invented this as a foundation myth, but this would not be a myth in the technical sense of the word. It is pure fiction, and has no place in WP. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:23, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Peter—as I wrote at the top the events described such as five mutineers being murdered and one, William McCoy, dying falling from a cliff, are true and confirmed by sources (see the article at Mutiny on the Bounty). Indeed the latter event was probably caused by the alcoholic drink McCoy and Matthew Quintal had managed to distil from a local plant. However I can find no evidence whatsoever that this drink was called "Quaff" and even if it was there was no "distillery". As you conclude this article's subject is pure fiction, despite the veracity of certain events described therein. — Cliftonian (talk) 16:43, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

FIFA Women's World Cup milestone goals[edit]

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

Random listcruft. I can't see that this is a topic of any notability; the numbers ending in a pair of zeros are essentially a random selection set. PROD removed with a WP:OTHERSTUFF argument citing FIFA World Cup milestone goals, which IMO also should go in the dumper. TheLongTone (talk) 14:11, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I don't agree it's a random selection set as it has assigned meaning; scoring the 100th or 500th goal is a "milestone" as opposed to the 337th goal. Just like getting dealt a king and an ace has meaning even though it's just as random as getting a 3 and a 4. As the events are quadrennial, these numbers are not as fluid. —Мандичка^YO 😜 15:26, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK, arbtrary not random. Why not select (eg) prime numbers as the criterion for a selection set. Just as uninteresting.TheLongTone (talk) 13:47, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as trivia. (And delete FIFA World Cup milestone goals if anyone nominates that, too.) There isn't anything special about the X-hundredth goal in a competition, any more than a list of the 100th, 200th, 300th, etc. Olympic gold medal awarded, or the 100th, 200th, 300th, etc. run scored in the World Series, or the 100th, 200th, 300th, etc. goal in the Stanley Cup playoffs. If getting dealt a king and ace has meaning that a 3 and 4 does not, it's because the player is more likely to win the card game being played with the king and ace, because the rules of that game give them more value, but the 700th goal in tournament history will have no more value to the team that scores it than if it had been the 699th goal or the 701st.

Folkestone bus station[edit]

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

Not a notable bus station. The sole claim to notability is a pony getting on a bus there, but I don't think that's enough. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 09:26, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK just noticed same user made a bunch of these about village bus stops. Do you mind if I piggy back them onto this AfD? —Мандичка^YO 😜 10:18, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You can, provided a closing administrator can treat them independently if necessary. I think Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ashford Bank Street is from the same source. I'd be hesitant to flat out delete Canterbury Bus Station as that's a significant local landmark (eg: "The tourist group for the cathedral at 11:00 will rendezvous at the bus station") so that one I'd redirect to somewhere in Canterbury.

Bouverie Place Shopping Centre is a little complicated - that's not a reasonable search term, but it could be renamed Bouverie Place and merge / redirected to Folkestone#Leisure. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 11:05, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's a really ordinary shopping center. Built in 2007, so non-historic, and 20 stores, mainly minor stuff. The article is just a listing of stores and then all the various bus routes to get there, which nobody is going to look up on Wikipedia. —Мандичка^YO 😜 11:22, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete no notability and seems promotional, mentioning nearby stores. It was created by a user with the same name as the town, Lydd-on-Sea, so no doubt works for council. —Мандичка^YO 😜 10:10, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- A left wing activist who interferes in another country'sa politics and gets locked up for his efforts. Hardly notable. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:42, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Some of the comments above seem a bit more dismissive than the circumstances warrant. The Daily Sabah piece cited in the article, for instance, certainly seems to be secondary, fairly substantial and about the subject - and I suspect that the same would apply to this, from The Times, if I could see behind the paywall. And left-wing activists who get arrested are notable if there is enough coverage from reliable sources, assuming that the coverage continues. So far as I can see, there was in fact a lot of press coverage in Turkish, quite a bit of it (so far as I can judge, not reading Turkish) looking reliable, at the time of the arrest, and there is still some continuing Turkish coverage - but having said that, without knowing Turkish, there is no way for me to judge whether this would even get close to taking the subject past the WP:ONEEVENT hurdle.

- Let's review:
  - [26] coverage of innovative advertising by major British newspaper, The Telegraph
  - article about company winning an award by Junior Magazine (magazine). The article seems like a PR piece, it's short, and full of marketing speak ("an award-winning and affordable collection of ", "the first, and only, baby & children’s skincare range to make the following claims: dermatologically & paediatrician tested and approved and suitable for newborns & upwards", etc.) . The magazine describes itself as a " glossy, family lifestyle website" that went out of print in 2013 but maintains an online presence. By 2014, when it covered CF, it was only an online portal. Seems like a niche, non-RS source, and written like a PR/marketing/ad piece.
  - [27] a companion to the above, JM interviews DF founder. Outside being regional/niche, it is is also not about the company, but it's founder, and mentions the company only in passing.
  - [28] a profile of the company founder in a regional UK portal (Hampshire Life, www.hampshire-life.co.uk). Outside being regional/niche, it is is also not about the company, but it's founder, and mentions the company only in passing.
  - [29] An ad for the products, in the form of an "article", appearing in "THE WIDEST DISTRIBUTED COMPLIMENTARY LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE IN SUSSEX". Another niche (distributed "throughout the county"), PR coverage, an ad masquerading for an article.
  - [30] Seems like a Czech equivalent of those British PR niche pieces. In fact, I think it's a shop.
  - [31] Another PR "buy this product". It's an ad for a single product, "Childs Farm Top-To-Toe Cleaning Kit, £9.95 www.childsfarm.com", in the form of profile of favorite products selected for the British edition of the Vogue_(magazine). It does not discuss the company, it is just fawning over one of their products.
  - [32] Similar coverage, a paragraph inviting people to buy "Bath and hair products for kids, from £4.69, from Childs Farm". Published in a blog/lifestyle section of a major British newspaper, The Guardian, but of dubious reliability. Anyway, it's coverage of the company's product, not the company.
- So, User:Wikimandia, I'd appreciate if you'd tell me how those sources pass GNG/Company notability for independent, major (non-niche, non-regional, non-passing) coverage. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:34, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - Because I don't agree with your assessment of these refs secretly being ads, PR pieces, blah blah blah. The Q&As with her are primarily about the company and how it got started, and you might want to head on over to WP:CORP because your standard requiring "major (non-niche, non-regional)" sources is not in the guideline at all, and, in fact, appears to be something you've invented to entertain us. The requirement for sources are that they be reliable sources unrelated to the organization or product. There is nothing that says coverage in a niche publication is not acceptable (especially if you have niche product, duh!); nor that local or regional publications cannot count as a reliable source. Per WP:AUD, you can't have an article with only local sources, but that's not the case with this article. So that's how I say these sources pass GNG. Also the Czech one is not a store but a women's portal and magazine; they sell a few products but they do not sell Childs Farm products. Hopefully that satisfies your questions. —Мандичка^YO 😜 04:39, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    - I could argue that you are confusing GNG and CORP, but let's not split words or guidelines. And yes, I should have said clearly non-RS, rather than niche. Now, please explain which references here satisfy, in your view, our policies. "This article satisfies WP:CORP criteria...". But if you think it does because it has coverage in reliable sources, we have to discuss the said sources. You haven't' so far, outside of arguing that the interview with the CEO is not passing coverage. Even if I agree (and I am not sure I do), I do not believe that Junior Magazine (magazine) is reliable; it seems WP:QUESTIONABLE ("promotional in nature"). Ditto for all other sources here; they seem to fail RS. Because, in simple terms, they are PR spam. Look at those publications. They are never critical of the products they cover; they get paid to produce article-like ads. The Sussex magazine is even given away for free (and don't tell me you think the companies which front the funds do so without expecting a quid pro quo in exchange). Let me repeat: having reviewed the sources, I find them unreliable (poor fact checking, likely COI in the form of positive, paid-for coverage), and focusing on the company in passing (even you haven't presented any in-depth sources about it, outside the PR-like piece, not too long btw, in the form of [33]). Wikipedia is not Yellow Pages. This company hasn't attracted any serious coverage (it paid for some niche PR article-likes features). And short coverage of the company's marketing campaign in a reliable newspaper does not change the situation. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:04, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Article really reads like an ad. The copy is full of press-release material.

- Delete as promotional/advertising: The theoretical approach to deletion debates where one keeps if the subject could be discussed really abuts reality here, because we wouldn't keep an ad.

The five offered sources are mighty flaky: two are commercial promotions (one for a CD recording, the other a concert announcement), and the remaining three (including that "church biography") are plainly written by the subject of the article—including a resumé and a personal photo on a blog. An attempt to find better sources via the template links turned up only a news item for a different person with the same name, who was charged in a hit-and-run in California.

Ok, I agree Shad Innet (talk) 10:59, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep but needs careful rewriting. This looks like the case of someone who is obviously notable by any reasonable reckoning, but where it may be very difficult to disentangle legend from history. He seems to be generally recognised as the effective founder of the Mahanubhava sect, with one of its sacred texts, Leela Charitra (or, apparently more usually these days, Lilacharitra), being largely a purported account of his life and thought - and one of the founding classics of Marathi literature. One problem that this gives is that most accounts of Chakradhar are either in relation to Lilacharitra as literature or to Mahanubhav thought (which seems to have been in many ways revolutionary, promoting both caste and gender equality) and, where they give accounts of his life, may not be fully separating out historical and legendary elements (this, for instance). By the way, "Swami" is an honorific and not always used - it may be easier to find sources without it(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL).

Delete and sandbox: What would be necessary is independent reliable source coverage of him as himself. That's lacking at this time. Incidentally, on the article name it might be better as Warren Christopher (Maryland politician) or "Warren Christopher (b. 19--)" and then, if the article made, a disambiguation at Warren Christopher. The encyclopedia can handle the confusion, but the current name is a bit clunky, and it will only work if its subject remains local.

Comment: The article is awful. Most of it is about "Housing First," which would present a good argument for "Redirect." The text of the argument -- ostensibly a biographical article, mind you -- never identifies the subject's place of birth or current residence. Furthermore, it talks about "then" he does this and "then" that, and he always does it "here." Here? Really? That's fantastic! This homelessness cure is here? I'll remember that when my employer folds, because surely "here" means here. It doesn't mean Washington, D.C., does it? I love how people do independent research, see that a person is discussed, and then say "keep," as if that were the end. This article isn't about the person, and it doesn't inform a reader.

Redirect I can't find anything about him that is really about him, not the method he has put into place to house the homeless.

Alexander Telalim[edit]

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

I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. " It was deprodded by creator, User:Elena Elk, with the following comment "deleting "proposal deletion" and "orphan". Reason: I think that it is enough editing articles. Also added: Links to external sources, cross-references to other sections of Wikipedia, other minor edits." I am afraid I am still not convinved by the refs present; the ones I can read seem to mention him in passing, or be not very reliable (some minor galleries selling his art, a site on tripod, etc.). If any sources are reliable and discuss him in depth, please list them here. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:51, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

* Comment User:Elena Elk I am the author of this article and I give my arguments in more expanded form.

The artist in question - Alexander Telalim - was born in Ukraine, now living in Bulgaria. The main evidence of its importance published in Bulgarian, Russian and Ukrainian languages (given in descending order).
Assuming that such references to the English part of Wikipedia is not too important and understandable to the reader, I did not include them. It certainly was my mistake, for which I apologize and ask opponents to take into account the factor of my small experience in this matter. It was my first article for the English Wikipedia. Thanks to the just remark of Piotrus, it has allowed me to improve the text.

Now about the links, which were included.
1. Two link to site of artist. One link is a page with biography, second - to main page. The main page is empty, it really bad link, but I seems that I would put it as a link to artist website. The last of them can be delete.
2. A group of links from USA galleries. I selected the links to Gallery at the Consulate, because it gives one a some official status also. The exhibition at The Ukrainian National Museum in USA and an article about this exibition is a examples of so links. Of course, modern gallery is often carried out with the sale, so finding exactly an impartial source, such as the British Museum, it would be difficult.
Another link with short biography of artist was used as English text from source other than the author's site.
3. Then three links to known private galleries in Bulgaria and Russia were used as a links satisfying the both parameters: English text and famous modern gallery in these countries.
4. Next 6 links are a references to the radio and television programs, as well as articles in the official media in Bulgaria, which were dedicated to the artist Alexander Telalim. I selected the only official state television and radio channels in Bulgaria (eg "Bulgarian National Radio" or "National Bulgarian TV"), as their significance seems to me a priority.
Unfortunately, the Internet in Ukraine was a very weak during youth Alexander Telalim. Good links are hard to find now and there are no English texts, so I not used those ones. But it's is may be done easily, if necessary.
5. In Eastern Europe there is another indication of the importance of artists - is the inclusion of the so-called "National Union of Artists." Selection to pass is fairly strict rules and Alexander Telalim has long been a member of the Bulgarian Union of Artists. (This is indicated).
6. Then I found link to one of the more significant exhibitions. It was The "Masters of Watercolours" in St. Petersburg in 2015 (with a Exibition participants catalogue).
7. Artist has a more than 60 solo exhibitions around the world, including the world-famous galleries in the US, EU and Japan. It was another argument, which allowed me to believe his fame enough for inclusion in Wikipedia.
(added) 8.The last links are the russian articles from different sites

Finally, if there are suspicions of my personal interest, I would like to just dismiss them. I am interested in South Russian school of art, the center of which is located in Odessa (modern Ukraine). I intend to write a series of articles about her artists, but the work is progressing too slow because of my employment elsewhere.
Not more than a few days ago, I posted an article about the Grekov Odessa Art school, today or tomorrow I will write about another representative of this school, the artist Yuri Salko, who became famous as a new talent in the field of icons in the Byzantine style.
I understand that the "myself" link is not a good argument for Wikipedia, but please note that my native language - Russian, Bulgarian and Ukrainian, so I can find information about these people in short order.
If my links are not insufficient, I will put all its my forces to find more serious, however, I would like to understand what could be more serious than the government media conducted an interviews, lasting more than an hour? If this is not proof of the popularity and significance, what is the evidence?

P.S. I watched many articles about the artists from Eastern Europe and Russia, and I find that the more links there are simply not available or unreliable. I would like to understand why this article is motivated by a desire to remove it? As a rule, if the article does not have reliable information, it is asked to provide. However, the repeated removal requirement is puzzling, and I would like to understand the reason for such a drastic requirement? Elena Elk (talk) 04:57, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I see several refs that are not in passing, including [34] and [35] with Bulgarian National Radio; interviews [36], [37], lengthy profile/appearance on Bulgarian television program [38], and exhibition at the Ukrainian National Museum [39]. I don't know if there are more out there; these are the ones already listed on the article, but not mentioned in your summary of sources when you created this AfD. I'm also curious why this article should be deleted. —Мандичка^YO 😜 05:37, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Google hits are not enough. Which of those are not WP:QUESTIONABLE? National Radio seems best, but problematic; it wasn't a program about him by some scholars or critics; those were interviews with him. As such, those have problems with WP:RS: he is a primary source about himself, after all. One could argue that the mere fact of being invited establishes notability, but this is, as far as I know, not supported by policy, and I an hesitant to support it (the interviews where, btw, how long? 1 minute? Half an hour?). All other unreliable sources aside (galleries selling or otherwise benefiting from his works are not independent sources; just like book publishers/bookstores cannot be sufficient sources for a book's notability). Granted, WP:ARTIST does state that if his work " has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition", but then we need to discuss what is a significant exhibition (I'd say one that is notable, i.e. has attracted major coverage, which is not what I see for the exhibitions listed in this article). Finally, the claim that membership in Union of Bulgarian Artists (an article of dubious notability itself as written, through a quick search shows it to be notable otherwise) is anything extra-ordinary needs to be backed up with sources. Is this a reputable organizations with selective membership? I am not seeing it; and as such I am not ready to accept the fact that membership in it conveys notability. In the end, keep in mind not all artists are notable, and nothing I see here suggests to me that this person is ready to be in an encyclopedia. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:18, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dude these are not "Google hits" but coverage of him and not a single one is from a gallery either, so I really don't what you're talking about. I can understand not everybody can read Cyrillic but you can at least bother to use Google Translate. The only one that is not from an independent news source is this one [46] from the City of Chicago's Sister Cities partnership website (as Kyiv is a sister city), and that's an announcement from the National Museum of Ukraine. And it's even in English. I have never read anywhere or heard anyone suggest that a Q&A or an interview (written or live) does not count as coverage toward GNG. A Q&A done with a RS is not considered a primary source except for the purpose of specific content/claim that would need to be subject to additional verification (such as claim of record company profits etc). You state merely being invited to be featured in an interview with a RS does not count toward GNG as this is "not supported by policy." ORLY? What policy is that? Because it's not in any Wikipedia policy, and I'm sorry to say I don't recognize WP:THINGSPIOTRIMAGINES as policy :-( Considering Q&A format interviews are very common and are frequently referenced, surely this specific rule you think exists would be in the guideline, somewhere.... And by "the interviews where" do you mean where can you find the radio interview???

Comment The duration of the interview in these sources varies from half an hour to two hours.

On membership in the Union of Artists of Bulgaria written here:
http://www.sbhart.com/bg/members/letter/%D0%A2/p/20#letter

or here: http://www.sbhart.com/en/members/letter/T/p/20#letter

I can to agree that this source may be given also, but I did not see that in other articles about the artists of Eastern Europe.

The book, which was cited in the references, not just a result of publication of his works, but the catalog of one of the most famous exhibition of masters of watercolors in the world. In my opinion, is really proof of the author's fame. Beginners or unknown masters there just are not included.

In some cases I cite and link to the both: exhibition and reviews. I described it in detail above. I can increase the number of some links to 10-20 pieces, but I have to take reviews in Bulgarian, Ukrainian and Russian languages, which is not too good for the English Wikipedia.

With all due respect to the search engines, especially Google, I want to note that this is not the best argument for the encyclopedia, also should take into account that the search should be conducted in the national languages and national offices of Google.

It seems a not serious argument that you do not know about the complexity of admission to the National Artists Union in Eastern Europe. If you do not have this information, it can be read anywhere, in Google or Wikipedia, or on cite http://www.sbhart.com/en, or about history of art at former socialist countries.

I will summarize. I put links to long radio and TV shows with the artist, and in the presence of Bulgarian critics and art historians. I put links and list important exhibitions outside Bulgaria.

I bring proof of adoption of the selective union of artists.

I quote the article, which tells about the artist in large galleries.

I cite references to articles published on the Internet, completely dedicated to the work of the artist.

What do I need more?

Which exhibition?

If I give you a long list of links to reviews on the Bulgarian or Russian, it will be the argument of fame?

The number of personal exhibitions is one of the most important arguments the significance of the artist. I chose of Telalim first because it is very large. Why is it that no argument? Articles is appearing in each(!) exibition in the national languages.

Finally, I repeat my question - why require removal article, but not correction?

I just added a dozen references to an interview with the artist, and reviews of his work. In the list are Bulgaria TV (two channels) and TV of Ukraine, some of the local channels in Chicago (I don't know this channel). Still not enough? Shad Innet (talk) 09:46, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Shad Innet (talk) 10:16, 9 June 2015 (UTC) You know, this is not my style, but I shall explain. I do not understand why Piotrus demanded the delete of the article. If we look at the editing history, we can see that the first author put only English links. This is a fairly common mistake for beginners who are trying to extend the non-English culture in the English Wikipedia.[reply]

And I think our task, my task - to support these people and help them correct their mistakes. We will gain new good editor and a lot of new pages in the future.
Instead of Piotrus put the page for deletion without seeing the previous changes.
Мандичка well although somewhat ill qualified. He said all the items and added a lot of links (thanks, some of them I put in the article today).
Among the options - an interview with state television channels in Ukraine and Bulgaria are probably small private channel in Chicago. Several references to the broadcast. All of them are quite a long period, which is already talking about the significance of the artist.
If you look at the headlines of articles, we see that the authors have no doubt of the importance of the artist. The extent that Izmail is the title "us goes a famous artist", for example. Note one that Izmail - it is Ukraine but Alexander Telalim lives in Bulgaria.
In my opinion, this article is already an overabundance of significant links, although I personally would link them with text or otherwise distributed, but this is a big job.
Instead of the conversation is continued about the removal and furthermore starts transition to the individual. I work together with Elena at the same institute. Those interested can see the link to our place of work https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budker_Institute_of_Nuclear_Physics
We have dozens of people write articles for Wikipedia, and I would be a shame to lose another quite good author. By the way, the alternate nickname Elena is widely known, it is right in her account - is Элена Элк, that means the same thing, but is written in Cyrillic.
I do not regret the author's call - she does not need it. But look closely enough links to understand that they have too much rather than "not enough." I note that this criticism does not even look.

No real indication of notability as defined by WP:MUSBIO or WP:BIO; passing mention in a tabloid article hardly rises to the standards set by those policies.

And if he really did win the award the article claims he won — well, some fifteen awards are handed out annually at the Romanian Music Awards, and while I can see "best album" meeting the "major music award" standard of WP:MUSBIO point 8, I have a harder time seeing "best new act" in the same category. - Biruitorul ^Talk 01:40, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

And, yes, at the end it does mention in passing that the award in question was given to Mica. As to the second link, I'm a bit skeptical about the reliability of yabbmusic.ro. In any event, the article deals with a certain Eli launching a video clip in which Mica also participates; the only in-depth mention of Mica is a quote by Eli: "I'm a friend of Alex's, we've known each other for a very long time because we're from the same city", etc, etc. Given that Eli himself doesn't seem notable, I don't see this one as a meaningful indication of notability either. - Biruitorul ^Talk 13:37, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep Clearly one of the biggest successes in recent Romanian pop music. The hit "Dalinda" was one of the biggest Romanian hits in 2012. The music video also attracted more than 21 million views, very respectable for a Romanian-language song. I have added many references as well to article since it was nominated for deletion. His most recent hit as a featured artist in Eli's "Nu mai cred in tine" is on the same track and has attracted around 7 milllion views in a brief 2 months. The article can be trimmed off of unnecessary detail, but I don't know what is the interest of English Wikipedia in deleting many such artists who are so notable in their own countries as if they are undeserving of international attention. I know language may be a hurdle for colleagues with no knowledge of languages, but I think non-English language artists are as deserving as English language artists for coverage, although references are much harder to analyze. werldwayd (talk) 08:15, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- werldwayd, if this guy were that prominent as your hyperbolic "clearly one of the biggest successes in recent Romanian pop music" suggests, he'd be the subject of "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician [himself]". He isn't; thus far, all you've been able to adduce is a blog post, a tabloid article and a piece of cruft. So let's tone down the rhetoric a bit: he's (probably) had one mildly successful song, and that's it.
- Joseph2302, do note the wording of WP:MUSICBIO: passing the criteria indicates the subject may be notable. Strictly speaking, you could argue he is, based on having had one song in the top 20. Myself, I tend to believe a biographical article should have at least some indication of coverage in "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician". Given that such coverage is glaringly lacking, I still question the viability of the article. - Biruitorul ^Talk 02:04, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. There is precedent for lists of software/products, but the qualification for them is almost always that they pass notability GNG enough to merit an article and/or that they've received enough coverage to at least warrant being mentioned on the list. This specific list seems to set its own rules for inclusion, one of which is that it is "actively maintained & supported." This has never been something that would disqualify something from a list on Wikipedia and it's quite common for lists to include software that is no longer maintained or supported. That aside, we have to look at whether or not there's really anything here that would warrant a list. Offhand I'm not seeing anything and the qualifications for inclusion seem to be fairly loose, given that Leapster is on the list. I suppose that since it does have an OS and it's aimed towards children it could technically belong on the list, but I don't know that it's really an OS in the same way that some of the others (like Edubuntu) are OS systems. This gives off the impression that the only two real qualifications for the list is that the product has to be aimed at children and that it has to be able to run electronically.

Delete: If other articles like this exist, then they're bad ideas, too. The title promises a "comparison" -- by what criterion? There are loads of assumptions in any "comparison." For example, I might want to know about the load time of each, or the nation of origin, or how many left handed brunettes worked on each. There is an include/exclude criterion that is arbitrary, as @Tokyogirl79 points out, but there are even more silent criteria in the points of comparison. This matters because the most vital silence is "comparison to determine which is best" is implied. The usefulness of this article would be as a consumer guide, and we're not in any position to be that. If it doesn't go to the consumer guide form, it becomes undigested information in a table.

The cases are discussed widely online and in print publications. I propose to write about the individual notable cases with references to this law firm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:ARTanascio|ARTanascio (talk)ARTanascio]] (talk • contribs) 15:24, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The politician is in the aspirational phase, so no notability. In addition, the article is misnamed, so whoever wrote it didn't even care enough to name it Reakash Walters. Hithladaeus (talk) 12:17, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unelected candidates for office do not pass WP:NPOL just for being candidates, either in a party's internal primary/nomination contest or on the general election ballot — if you cannot credibly and reliably source that she already passed a Wikipedia inclusion rule for some other reason before she became a candidate, then she does not become eligible for an article on here until she wins the election (and just to clarify in case there's still any doubt, it's the big enchilada on October 19 that she has to win to qualify for an article on here, not just the nomination.) And nothing else in the article either claims or sources anything that would put her over a different notability rule instead of NPOL. Delete, without prejudice against recreation in October if she wins the seat. Bearcat (talk) 00:31, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Honey Creek Middle School[edit]

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

School fails WP:ORG and most likely WP:GNG too. There is virtually no coverage of the school in detail in WP:RS. What little coverage in local meida is not in detail. The only national coverage was a mention of a teacher in an article on the top 100 teachers in USA Today. Coverage of a teacher at the school does not equate to coverage of the school. It had been redirected to the local school district for nearly two years til an editor came along today and restored it. Per school article guidelines and WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, re-establishing the redirect is a perfectly acceptable outcome for me. John from Idegon (talk) 00:02, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: A middle school that doesn't have notability. The article says. . . it's a middle school with things to brag about, which is what every middle school can say. It's also, I'm pretty sure, not the only "Honey Creek Middle School" in the U.S., so a redirect may not be the best idea. Hithladaeus (talk) 12:14, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-notable middle school, fails WP:GNG and WP:CORP, doesn't pass WP:NSCHOOL as it's not a secondary school (high school to use the US term). Joseph2302 (talk) 12:27, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- COMMENT - Davey2010, are you opposing redirect to Vigo County School Corporation, the prior redirect? Generally, if a district article exits, that is the usual target. We only go to the municipalities if there is not a district article. John from Idegon (talk) 21:44, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops sorry John from Idegon - I hadn't looked through the history - Just assumed you meant Terre Haut, Absolutely agree redirecting to the district as that's usually the preferred option :). –Davey2010^Talk 23:45, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Vigo County School Corporation - This looks to me like a middle school permastub with marginal notability at best. If there is another "Honey Creek Middle School", we can create a hatnote at the target article, or perhaps convert to a disambiguation page. Either way, it would be helpful to direct readers to a location that at least discusses these schools. Mz7 (talk) 02:04, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the district, as usual. No need to delete altogether. We should do as we usually do with these--it's a workable compromise. DGG ( talk ) 05:14, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
