Non-notable boxer that fails both WP:NBOX and WP:GNG. The second AfD finished with a Delete 1.5 months ago and nothing has changed since then to meet either criteria. The Db:repost was declined because the article was substantially different but ... well I don't think it should have been - hence the third AfD.Peter Rehse (talk) 19:59, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I can see the arguement for deletion of the page but also for keeping it. Mark De Mori at one point was ranked 10th by the WBA and therefore qualified for a page. However, Gjergjaj has a better record, is ranked a lot higher overall in the world than De Mori ever was and is better fighter overall. If you're going to delete Gjergjaj for being non-notable then De Mori should also be deleted. De Mori is only notable because he fought David Haye, and therefore so is Gjergjaj. Lorenzo9378 (talk) 07:57, 2 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Despite the nominator stating that he fails GNG (based on what?), Gjergjaj has received enough coverage to satisfy that guideline, and not all relates to the fight with David Haye (e.g. [1], [2], [3]). He's ranked at no. 29 in the world by Boxrec, 35 by the WBC, and if he beats Haye in May (however unlikely that may seem) he's going to be ranked highly enough by two of the major sanctioning bodies to satisfy NBOX. He was ranked high enough in Europe to be named as a European title challenger ([4]) although the fight didn't happen. --Michig (talk) 09:18, 2 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The previous two comments contain spurious arguments. Claiming he deserves a page because he's better than a fighter who has a page is both subjective and falls under WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Claiming he'll be highly ranked if he defeats Haye (who is not ranked in the top 10 by several organizations) is not necessarily true and also falls under WP:CRYSTALBALL.

  • Delete In the six weeks since this article was last deleted he has done nothing to enhance his notability (since his last fight was in 2015). Some routine sports coverage about his upcoming fight with Haye is not enough to meet WP:GNG and he doesn't meet WP:NBOX. My comment above deals with the keep arguments that have been made. He doesn't seem any more notable now than in the previous two discussions (which were both in the past 6 months). Papaursa (talk) 01:40, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Disagree with the above, he is far more notable now simply due to the fact he is fighting Haye and this article is a big improvement on any of the previous ones about him. Also, he is the only heavyweight inside the Boxrec top 30 without a page, and it is true that Mark De Mori was ranked just inside the Boxrec top 100 before he fought Haye. Gjerjaj would have certainly had a page had his European title fight happened (its now Chisora vs Pulev). De Mori has a page and he is no more notable than Gjergjaj, despite his very questionable 10th place ranking by the WBA at one point, he is lower than Gjergjaj everywhere else. 92.31.150.162 (talk) 07:56, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't see anything that makes him more notable than he was before. Saying he'd have been notable if other things had happened doesn't make him notable. He's not notable just because he's fighting Haye (though the keep voters seem to believe that) because notability is not inherited. Still fails both GNG and NBOX.Mdtemp (talk) 15:22, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Gjergjaj IS more notable now because he is fighting Haye though, there is no denying it. Also can't see how he fails GNG and delete voters still haven't explained why. Lorenzo9378 (talk) 09:47, 11 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – Disagree about him being more notable just because he's fighting a more notable name. If there was a title of significance on the line (European Union/EBU-EU at least), he'd automatically gain notability, but fighting Haye for nothing whatsoever means squat. Furthermore, he isn't yet ranked in the top ten by either of the big four ([5]) or the EBU ([6]), and certainly won't be after losing to Haye. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 19:19, 12 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The articles in Neue Zürcher Zeitung and Blick (published by Ringier) provided by Michig demonstrate that Arnold Gjergjaj passes Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline. Cunard (talk) 05:47, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I would say the German articles fall under routine sports coverage since they fall under the category of "here's what happened in last night's fight". In other words, more play-by-play than significant coverage. I could find the same kind of coverage for thousands of fights of non-notable boxers. Papaursa (talk) 13:11, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree that the articles fall under routine sports coverage. For example, here is the Google Translate of the Neue Zürcher Zeitung article. Here are the first three paragraphs:

His trainer and manager Angelo Gallina baptized him "The Cobra" because it waits before and then suddenly attacks. Arnold "The Cobra" Gjergjaj - sounds good and has an intimidating effect, you want to be of a professional boxer in the heavyweight division. But the native of Kosovars from Pratteln liked this artist name, then nearly seven years ago, did not accept as correct.

It is not devoid of humor, as Gjergjaj explained this refusal. 197 centimeters and 109.5 kg make the "Turnbänkli" appear very small in the basement of Boxklubs Basel under him, his hands big as spades, carry the force of 550 kilograms to be. And this man says with a wink: "I'm still myself fear cobras."

Gallina called his protege as "sympathetic and playful". Initially times it was for him a "Baby Cobra". Back when they together spanned in 2008, was Gjergjaj twofold Swiss amateur heavyweight, and Gallina guessed that would be possible more.

The article provides even more detailed biographical background about him:

Meanwhile, the cobra is almost fully grown. Another amateur title was added, then was Gjergjaj professional, the most successful heavyweights that Switzerland has ever known. Last October flicked his left jab in the 9th round briefly lights when Bosnian Adnan Redzovic from. It was his 26th victory in 26 fight as a professional, the 20 by knock-out. Then he was allowed to put the belt as European champion of non-EU countries over the shoulder - it is not a particularly serious and coveted. Had he not won Yves Studer also at middleweight, you know this country hardly of its existence. "Many have taken this title and our work to ridicule," says Gallina, "it accused us of having no proper opponents. But that's the reality. "Boxing costs. The stronger the opponent, the more expensive the fee, the more complex and financially burdensome preparing with additional personnel. Critics Despite says Gallina: "Our way is the only portable." The giant Gjergjaj had in small steps the international ranking climb, first against building opponents, then, as in the last 14 fights against boxers with a positive balance. 2011 and 2012 yielded Gjergjaj from a total of 12 fights. Point by point, he has worked up in the current 50th place.

This is not merely "here's what happened in last night's fight". Instead, this discusses Gjergjaj's history as a boxer.

Cunard (talk) 05:05, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I was looking at the German sources (Tages Woche and Blick) in the article since you didn't provide a link to the article you mentioned. Your translation left out the beginning part where it is clear it's a local interview with his manager before that night's fight in Basel and it talks about the local boy who's been rising up the rankings to 50th and will be fighting before a home crowd tonight. That seems more promotional and typical sports reporting than you implied. Do you have some significant coverage that isn't from Basel media or about the Haye fight? Papaursa (talk) 00:24, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The article I mentioned was linked by Michig. Neue Zürcher Zeitung is the Swiss newspaper of record, so I think that substantial coverage of Arnold Gjergjaj in it is a strong indicator of notability. I did not find a similar level of depth about the subject from the Haye fight. Cunard (talk) 06:05, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I looked for sources and found an incredible amount of articles just about the upcoming Haye match. This might be notability for one event, however. Many of the articles stated that Arnold is an unknown. I'd suggest just postponing until the match but it's over a month away so I guess we have to decide the notability as is. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 05:01, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as this is still questionable for any available essential improvements, Draft at best if needed for now. SwisterTwister talk 22:24, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • How is this "still questionable for any available essential improvements"? The Wikipedia article is sourced to several reliable sources and is neutrally written. Cunard (talk) 07:25, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the above mentioned comprehensive coverage in one or (maybe) two articles just doesn't meet WP:GNG, I'm sorry. The guidelines call for 3-5 independent and reliable sources with comprehensive coverage of the subject - I just don't see it. Chrisw80 (talk) 06:11, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Above, I posted a quote from a 2015 article from Neue Zürcher Zeitung that provides substantial biographical coverage about the subject.

    Here are two more sources from 2015:

    1. Dutler, Alex (2015-06-01). "Arnold «The Cobra» Gjergjaj - Europameister mit 7-Tage-Woche". Basellandschaftliche Zeitung (in German). Archived from the original on 2016-04-24. Retrieved 2016-04-24.

      The Google Translate of the article notes:

      Arnold "The Cobra" Gjergjaj slaves there for the defense of his European champion title on June 6, 2015. The best Swiss heavyweight boxer is 1.97 meters and 110 kilograms already a colossal appearance, but his top secret Scandinavian training partner with the Vikings Bart and the tattooed arms surmounted him again by a few centimeters.

      ...

      On the whitewashed wall next to the ring, an image of Vladimir Klitschko hangs. Even with the Ukrainian world number 1 Arnold Gjergjaj has already measured in sparring. For the 30-year-old Swiss with Albanian roots wants to reach the top.

      ...

      The European champion belt, which Arnold Gergjaj has taken on 4 October 2014 in Basel before 2000 spectators against Bosnian Adnan Redzovic is awarded by the European Boxing Union (EBU), one of the oldest organizations in the world. However, the Swiss holding not the top EBU title, but those in the category EBU-EE - he is European champion of non-EU countries.

      So it's not the most important belt, but the first of a Swiss heavyweight boxer ever. And that Arnold Gjergjaj is on its way to the global peak, can be the cross-association world rankings BoxRec refer.

    2. Oppliger, Matthias (2015-07-06). "Hand gebrochen, Trommelfell geplatzt: Gjergjaj bleibt trotzdem Europameister" [Hand broken, burst eardrums: Gjergjaj remains nevertheless European champion]. TagesWoche (in German). Archived from the original on 2016-04-24. Retrieved 2016-04-24.

      The Google Translate of the article notes:

      It was an evening of firsts: the first time a battle of Arnold "The Cobra" Gjergjaj was broadcast live on Kosovar television. For the first time the professional boxer from Pratteln had to defend his European title (EBU-EE). For the first time in his career Gjergjaj went down.

      Denis Bakhtov, called "Darth Vader", was without a doubt the toughest opponent for the cobra. In two ways. On the one hand he demands Gjergjaj on Saturday night in the St. Jakobshalle, as this was never demanded. No matter how hard he hits, the Russians put the matches away seemingly easy. A counterattack? Bakhtov can not stop them. A right hook? Bakhtov oscillates slightly with your upper body to the left.

      The article goes beyond routine discussion of a sporting event by analyzing Gjergjaj's fighting techniques:

      Although the decision in the end turned out clearly, all three judges saw in Gjergjaj the winner, could arise during the fight in the meantime, another impression. The early rounds were at least balanced, Bakhtov of active boxers. While Gjergjaj used his size advantage and kept his distance, Bakhtov knew only one direction: forward. So the prattler saw something too often pushed into a corner, where he tried to sit out the richly varied punch combinations of Russians in double coverage.

      Tactically and stylistically hardly two more different fighters could stand against. Gjergjaj fought cautiously, mostly over let the smaller Boxer the ring center and practiced in running work. Although his art was clean, but based mainly on a strike, the jab. Bakhtov contrast was taking risks, examined the Infight and dodged the few strokes of the cobra with its oscillating Waist sent out. His quick combinations always found their destination, sometimes it was the body, even the head.

    Here are four sources about the 2016 Hayes fight that provide significant coverage about the subject:
    1. "Arnold Gjergjaj fordert Ex-Weltmeister David Haye". Neue Zürcher Zeitung (in German). 2016-03-30. Archived from the original on 2016-04-24. Retrieved 2016-04-24.

      The Google Translate of the article notes:

      Arnold Gjergjaj stands before the most important fight of his career. The currently best Swiss professional boxer meets on May 21 in London on the Englishman David Haye.

      For the 31-year-old, 197 cm large Gjergjaj it is the biggest fight of his career. The as a professional unbeaten pugilist from Pratteln with Kosovar roots was far against anyone yet boxer on the format of "Heumachers", although Gjergjaj had already won the title of "European Champion of non-EU countries".

      ...

      For Gjergjajs coach and manager Angelo Gallina is not appropriate "fear, but respect" for Haye. Some researchers drowned Gjergjaj himself: "This fight in a magnificent setting is a huge motivation for me, a great world to show my skills My goal is clear. I want to stay unbeaten and with all due respect to David Haye:. His time is up."

      The possibility that Haye underestimated his upcoming opponent is available. At least this is the case with many British boxing fans. In many blog posts after the fight announcement Gjergjaj is "unknown" and considered despite his flawless fight record as "easy prey" for Haye, "perhaps he will be even more overtaxed than De Mori" conjecture several British Boxkenner.

    2. Müller, Tobias (2016-03-30). "«The Cobra» Arnold Gjergjaj steht vor seinem grössten Kampf". Basellandschaftliche Zeitung (in German). Archived from the original on 2016-04-24. Retrieved 2016-04-24.

      The Google Translate of the article notes:

      Understandable. Today will be announced later in the day, what is clear is actually for days and is in social media as safe: Arnold Gjergjaj to deny the first big fight of his career. Against none other than the British David Haye. Of course there is little time for anything else at Angelo Gallina. Whether he was at the time of the message on the way to London to be at the press conference to local media Red and response to fight his protege against Haye today - this question remains open.

      ...

      Gjergjaj is currently classified in the BoxRec ranking ranked 29th To get further forward, he needs a victory against a large - like Haye is undoubtedly one. Only so Gallina and Gjergjaj can reach their ambitious goal of a world title fight. Siegt Gjergjaj in a possible duel against Haye, he would make a huge step towards his dream. In a defeat that would probably burst prematurely.

      29 fights, 25 knock-outs

      This a fight against Haye carries the risk of losing, a fact due to the impressive statistics of the British. In his 29 fights won this 27 times, including 25 in the preliminary round. An impressive record that is certainly the 31-year Gjergjaj known. What's more, it would be the first appearance of Pratt moth before such a backdrop that the fight, the "Haye-Day" will be held in the O2 Arena in London before 20,000 spectators. This would be a completely new stage for Arnold Gjergjaj. A fight on a completely new level in his career.

    3. "Arnold Gjergjaj fordert David Haye: Es ist offiziell: «The Cobra» aus Pratteln bekommt es in seinem ersten ganz grossen Fight am 21. Mai mit dem «Hayemaker» zu tun". Basler Zeitung (in German). 2016-03-30. Archived from the original on 2016-04-24. Retrieved 2016-04-24.

      The article notes:

      Arnold Gjergjaj stands before the most important fight of his career. The currently best Swiss professional boxer meets on May 21 in London on the Englishman David Haye (35). The duel was made official at a news conference in London.

      For the 31-year Gjergjaj it is the biggest fight of his career. The as a professional unbeaten pugilist from Pratteln with Kosovar roots was far against anyone yet boxer on the format of "Heumachers", although Gjergjaj already won the title of "European Champion of non-EU countries".

      ...

      For the rapidly beating Haye (27: 2 victory prematurely, 25) is Gjergjaj (29: 0, 21) be the last hurdle on the way to an IBF world title fight.

    4. Davies, Gareth A. (2016-03-30). "David Haye pledges to donate 10 per cent of ticket sales to Nick Blackwell". The Daily Telegraph. Archived from the original on 2016-04-24. Retrieved 2016-04-24.

      The article notes:

      Haye, whose forthcoming fight against Gjergjaj is expected to be shown on free-to-air television, made his comeback at a sold-out 02 Arena in January with three million viewers watching on the channel Dave when he defeated Australian Mark de Mori in 131 seconds.

      He faces an opponent in Gjergjaj who has won all 29 career fights.

      Since fleeing Kosovo as a war refugee, Gjergjaj has been based in Switzerland, where the 31-year-old heavyweight is a resident.

Let's knock the dust off this article and give it a good hard look. Ah, the Outro. You may know this concept by its more common name, the ending. Your first warning sign is that the article was created way back in 2005, before the majority of our modern notability guidelines had been created.

Beyond that: the entire thing is original research, with no references to independent sources whatsoever. It's full of opinions in the lead, then the "body" of the article is just a completely arbitrary list of games with endings, which, as we know, pretty much all games have, unless they're ancient arcade coin-gobblers. There's no clear criteria for inclusion as an example, other than some random editor came along and decided to add something.

I looked, and while there are plenty of people posting videos with "(video game) outro" as the title, no reliable sources have mentioned it. Searching books, I can't find anything. What I can find is mentions of outro as a generic concept; if anything, it's most commonly in music. There's no coverage of video game outros as something uniquely notable. —Torchiest talkedits 22:34, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I was planning on redirecting this one to Glossary of video game terms but I didn't find an easy source at the time. I don't think the encyclopedia would be worse off if it was deleted, but this could be a useful redirect term if we have proof that "outro" is used in a video game-specific context. czar 14:16, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. There isn't anything that I really disagree with in this article, but it's all just original research. The Fallout series is probably the best known example of a story-based cinematic that describes the results of your adventures, but even that doesn't really turn up anything with a WP:VG/RS search. Sure, there are a few trivial mentions, but that seems like it. We can add a definition to the glossary if anyone finds a source. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:45, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a writer, with some advertorial tinge to it but not quite blatantly enough to merit immediate speedy on that basis, which makes no strong or properly sourced claim of notability per WP:AUTHOR -- it basically amounts to James Krefft is a writer who exists, and is "sourced" only to his books' sales profiles on amazon.com (which is not valid sourcing).

These two news articles show that there are people from Kenya in Mexico. This is not an encyclopedic piece of information. There are people from all countries in Mexico and sometimes they get into the news. It does not show that there is a "Kenyan diaspora" in Mexico. It also does not show that there is a notable group that identifies as "Kenyan Mexican", which is also a neologism that does not actually appear in any of the sources given. If we write articles like this we would have articles about all combinations of "Mexican" and all the worlds other countries. A reliable source about immigration should identify a group of "Kenyan Mexicans" for this article to be a reasonable addition to the encyclopedia.

So basically the rationale is: the topic is non-notable, and the only two sources do not support the encyclopedic significance of the topic. ·maunus · snunɐɯ· 16:16, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The subject is described as a peace activist, musician, and scientist, but the sources provided appear to be links to pages on the web sites of organizations with which he is affiliated, a press release, a YouTube channel, and a broken link. No independent reliable sources have been provided, nor have I been able to find any good sources myself. If the subject really is notable, more would need to be done to establish that under WP:BIO. But based on the current content, I would recommend deletion. Metropolitan90 (talk) 15:57, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy Keep subject has already made Diplomatic appearances as one of the prominent Youth Leader of the United Nations, theses are the young People who are doing amazing Jobs like Malala and other young activists, by sacrificing their lives and time in transforming the lives of youth in the world unlike other dormant youth, and motivating a lot of young people to lead Change in the Society. Thus satisfying WP:Speedy keep. Subject will probably continue to make more international appearances in performing Outstanding activism and advocacy activities, and hence still satisfies the general notability requirements. Should not forget the Subject has already began a path that could end him up being a prominent world leader in days to come, how much coverage is needed before people keep wasting time trying to delete rather than improve this article of such prominent young Leaders? This article already has excellent referencing that shows that He is a notable activist in the civil rights movement of the United Nations, including books published by either his or other Organizations and online social presses. I encourage the nominator to withdraw this belittling remark. The subject appears to have made widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record.

I came across this via a speedy and it just barely passes A7 criteria via its affiliation with Alpha Epsilon Pi, as it started off as a branch of that fraternity. I was initially debating maybe mentioning this in the main fraternity article, but there really isn't much out there about this fraternity or it breaking away to form its own fraternity late last year.

  • Delete. Individual chapter of a fraternity. We have never considered them notable. Nor do we consider local branches of other organizations notable, such as the 1000s of local chapters of charitable organizations, or the 100s of individual branches of the hundreds of chain restaurants or supermarkets. The rule here is very simple: NOT DIRECTORY. Such articles would be most dramatically in violation of it. DGG ( talk ) 17:01, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the above. Put it this way - if this were a single chapter, local fraternity, it would not be notable. If it is notable as an offshoot of another, clearly notable national organization, then I would argue that notability is not inherited. If the split itself were the subject of significant coverage, then an article on the split itself might work - and perhaps could be discussed at the parent fraternity's article, if other chapters split as well or if coverage expands. Now, I'm citing WP:USUAL as well, here - because a local chapter can very easily expand elsewhere, particularly if other chapters split from the parent organization. If Beta Rho Pi were to expand to other campuses, and if that expansion were properly documented, then I can see an article working. But not now, not as it stands.

Derbundeskanzler (and Karl Twist) with respect, that's not how this works; in order for this article to survive the AfD, we're going to need to see sources which establish the topic's WP:NOTABILITY--as a practical matter, we can't just go on the blanket and unqualified assumption that "it's definitely notable!". Are you really certain there are sources out there that meet our WP:RS standards and are suitable to establishing notability for this man under WP:GNG or WP:ACTOR? Because several of us have looked and found nothing. If you're certain they exist and want this article to stay, the WP:BURDEN is on you to provide them now, not just assurances that those sources "must" exist and will show up some day. If you can find said sources, I will happily change my !vote, but the AfD process requires more than guesswork. Snow let's rap 01:44, 11 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Guys, I don't mean to discount your good-faith efforts here, but all any of these sources do is list credits; not a single one of them discusses Pinney beyond listing his name and the role he played. Further, only one of these sources comes anywhere close to meeting our WP:Reliable source standards. Please see WP:Notability; we need in-depth coverage of the topic and its impact, not a dozen different variations on a TV.com role list. I'm afraid that I can't change my !vote based on anything presented so far, and if these sources represent the best that two dedicated fans can dig up with several days to work at it, I daresay this is pretty conclusive evidence that this individual is non-notable, for the purpose of Wikipedia's policies on such. Snow let's rap 03:21, 13 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Snow Rise, first of all I would like to say that I am not a fan! Prior to coming across this article for deletion, I was only vaguely aware of Pinney and only because I had seen it here and there as a reference to voice overs. Also don't like animated films and loathe these cartoons on tv. There is now another source that "discusses Pinney beyond listing his name".
Here at 411 Mania, the review : Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD 3.16 Review – ‘Paradise Lost’, The Review by Wayatt Beougher. Pinney is even mentioned in an unrelated article as you can see. Industry-wise he is now being referenced. This is just a few hours old. Hot off the press so to speak. So now you can raise the tally from "only one of these sources comes anywhere close to meeting our WP:Reliable source standards" to two. I think I can find another to make that total three. He's also mentioned in books as well. Given time I believe this article will satisfy the strictest folk here. So the question is, Why am I going to such an effort to improve the article and save it ? The answer is that I believe him to be notable. Yes he has only had around 6 - 8 on screen acting roles that I have been able to locate. Actually I will increase that as he has done 33 episodes as Harry in Harry and the Hendersons tv series. Also he has done some stage work.

He was an announcer in 3 episodes of Thank God You're Here.

As a voice actor however he has had 13 episodes as Balkar / Terra / Klone in Blackstar, 7 episodes in The Dukes, 17 episodes as Mainframe in G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, 48 episodes in The Centurions, 19 episodes as Mighty Mouse and Mike Mouse (main roles). He did 2 episodes in Spider-Man Tv series as The Thing / Benjamin J. Grimm, 3 episodes as Fish #1 / Zoo Keeper / Security Guard and others in SpongeBob SquarePants, 48 episodes as Wormguy / Alien / Worm Emperor etc in Men in Black: The Animated Series, 2 episodes in Jackie Chan Adventures with 1 as Dr. Weber. He has also done 13 episodes in various credited roles on Robot Chicken. Then add about 30 other voice-over roles in various programs and films and that's quite an amount.

Even though there is no doubt in my mind that Pinney is notable, I will say that we also have to view voice actors with another kind of mindset. I have looed at other voice actors in Wikipedia and many are screen actors with a much smaller amount of voice work. Pinney is the other way around. He is a prolific voice actor with a much smaller amount of on screen work. I dare say though that his role as Mannheim Hofflung in the Charles Dennis directed film Chicanery may change that. Thanks Karl Twist (talk) 11:31, 13 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, Hollywood.com does go in-depth about his career in the following paragraph on their site:
Over the duration of his career, Patrick Pinney exercised his vocal talents in a range of films. Pinney worked on a variety of projects during his early entertainment career, including "Casual Sex?" with Lea Thompson (1988), "DuckTales: The Movie" with Alan Young (1990) and "Project X" with Matthew Broderick (1987). He also contributed to "The Chipmunk Adventure" (1987) starring Ross Bagdasarian Jr., the Hamilton Camp and Ed Gilbert hit "The Little Mermaid" (1989) and "The Terminator" (1984). After that, Pinney moved on to lend his vocal talents for roles in films like the Paige O'Hara blockbuster animated film "Beauty and the Beast" (1991) and the Lea Salonga blockbuster animated adventure "Aladdin" (1992). Pinney's music was most recently used in the Jaden Smith hit action flick "The Karate Kid" (2010).
I think this source would be useful in building the article, and it's definitely not a simple list of roles. Derbundeskanzler (talk) 18:30, 13 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have a hard time seeing how those observations are anything but a list of his roles--they don't speak to the quality of his acting in those roles, his career in the industry, his influence or status, or anything but the fact that he played those roles. Also, hollywood.com is not RS.
That said, the Agents of Shield review Karl found above definitely takes us a step in the right direction--that's the kind of (at least somewhat) detailed coverage that we're looking for here. I don't think that one paragraph is quite enough to base an article on in and of itself, but it does show that some media sources have shed some light on the nature and quality of Pinney's work as a voice actor. I'll make some more efforts to turn something up; if we can just find one or two more sources with that level of coverage, I'll be satisfied that the minimum requirements of GNG have been met, and will switch my !vote, which should be enough to get this closed as a Keep. In the meantime, I'd like to request that anyone coming upon this discussion and contemplating a close waits to do so just a bit longer, so we can dig a little deeper on this. Snow let's rap 06:31, 14 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks User:Snow Rise, there's a bit here about Pinney in the Modesto Bee where his name is mentioned six times. The article by Marijke Rowland is fun reading too. Comedic ‘Unnecessary Farce’ slams into Sierra Rep. Pinney is notable but one that needs improvement with work and searching. Can be both interesting fun and tiring.

  • Do Not Delete I do not see how it is not notable enough to be included? Though previous pages have been deleted on this subject, this article not only is very different in it's construction and use of sources, but it also asks (Using Stubs) for more parties to contribute to its completion. The page (Record Label) is linked and mentioned in other approved Wiki Pages: Voodoo Trombone Quartet , Swing Republic, Swingrowers Lodekka, The Correspondents and more. It's Club night 'White Mink' is mention in Electro swing and the sources backing this articles notability include The Independent & Mixmag ( Electroswing770 (talk) 12:47, 1 April 2016 (UTC) )[reply]

This is the key label behind the Electro Swing genre as mentioned above.

This is someone who has written a lot of book reviews on the web. The sources do not adequately establish notability. Besides the primary sources and web searches, which are obviously not usable, there are several books listed. As far as I can tell through Google Books, they are not in depth. He also got quoted a few times as a spokesperson for the EFA, but being quoted in the media does not establish notability. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:41, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Apart from that, however, the "Google test" gives 155k hits for Yee, whose reviews are widely quoted, referenced and syndicated. Relatedly, Google scholar shows a rather substantial 365 mentions. The "author test" mentions readership of >5000: according to Yee's statements (see Talk:Danny Yee), he has gotten over a million hits on his reviews over the years—even if Yee's characterization of server logs isn't exactly accurate, the 5000 threshold is easy exceeded by two orders of magnitude. FWIW, Google groups shows 4260; and Alexa shows his homepage at 64,061. I also find it notable that his reviews have been slashdot frontpage stories repeatedly. • The prior AfD (over a year ago) was based on different, and inadequate, article contents that in fact failed to assert notability.

Fails WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG, as Bunjaki has never made a senior appearance, and his two appearances for Kosovo were non-FIFA matches (tier 2), as Kosovo is not a member of either FIFA or UEFA.

The issue is that Kosovo is not a FIFA member, which then means he does not pass WP:NFOOTBALL. He even is playing for the German U19s, which is allowed due to the fact he did not actually make a FIFA-recognized international appearance in a Tier 1 match. Secret Agent Julio (talk) 20:18, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Secret Agent Julio: Let me tell you something. It's such as a professional footballer which has played for a professional club against another one, even if the match has to be for a domestic cup. That's the case of subject, he has played against Senegal a fully recognized national team, plus this match was permitted by FIFA. I mean so he hasn't played against a unrecognized national team such as Northern Cyprus, Vatican, etc. Thank you. Eni.Sukthi.Durres (talk) 08:35, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - subject has already made two senior international appearances, thus satisfying WP:FOOTY.

Inter&anthro (talk) 20:44, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NFOOTBALL explicitly says that it only covers tier 1 international matches, meaning Kosovo's matches as a non-FIFA member do not qualify. More importnatnly, he has not received sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG. Secret Agent Julio (talk) 09:38, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - two internationals for Kosovo, which has applied for FIFA membership - [9]. There's no reason they wouldn't be admitted, other than bias by some of their neighbours. Nfitz (talk) 19:09, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Still does not change the fact that the matches he participated in for Kosovo thus far were not tier 1, which are the only tier notable per WP:NFOOTBALL. Secret Agent Julio (talk) 09:38, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
We can't simply apply the rules, when the only reason Kosovo matches aren't fully recognized is because of the political machinations of those who seek to occupy the country. Nfitz (talk) 02:23, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I would argue the exact opposite is true. We should not be ignoring the rule, simply because we don't like politics of the situation. Considering FIFA membership would mean access to World and Euro Cup qualifiers on one hand, and respect for stricter sanctioning requirements on the other, there is a very real difference between tiers 1 tier 2, and WP:NFOOTBALL is acknowledgement of that.

  • Keep. Same as last time. The article reads like an advertisement, prompting me to tag it as such. But that is strictly a content issue. At AfD, all we consider is notability.

But it wasn't a notable award? This has nothing to do with what this person did to advance the Civil Rights Movement, it has to do with whether this person meets Wikipedia's notability requirements. There were many hard-working, courageous foot soldiers in the movement, and many, like Simpson, have been mentioned with a sentence or two in a book. Does this make them notable enough for a Wikipedia article, or would readers of Wikipedia be better served to learn about this person from within an existing article?

  • Keep - An article should not be treated as Spam gratuitously. Please refer to the talk page to see what happened in the AFC and come up with a thorough opinion based on all the facts. I added the {{notability|Companies}} template at the moment of the publication thinking it was an unambiguous way of addressing the main concern. As I understand, there is still a lot of debate on notability determination: please focus the debate in decide about it and not in a presumption of non-notability for this kind of companies because those aren't guidelines. I think this contestation maybe was raised because of my behavior instead of the article's Notability.

Comment - Hi doncram, what's your rationale for your keep !vote? Onel5969 TT me 19:01, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the invitation to return. Maybe "Halls of residence" is also too narrow. The general problem is that there is a general, continuing pressure on Wikipedia for creation of articles on university buildings, because they loom large to potential student writers (our future...sigh). Supply (allowance to expand coverage) needs to meet, sort of, the demand, or odd things happen, like too-narrow articles emerge (perhaps this single dormitory building is one), and we're stuck with either crushing goodwill and initiative or accepting not-great topics padded with minutiae so they can seem article-worthy. Some balance can be achieved by creating a list-article that covers multiple buildings giving some appeasement but where coverage inflation can then be fought as a matter of editing. You have to see that there is a vast Category:University and college buildings including Category:Lists of university and college buildings and Category:Buildings and structures by university or college etc. etc. already. Category:Buildings and structures of Loughborough University (currently a redlink) is overdue.
Reviewing Category:Loughborough University for buildings and structures articles, I see Burleigh Hall, Loughborough Students' Union, Pilkington Library and also some articles like National Cricket Performance Centre and Centre for Renewable Energy Systems Technology that might be dual articles about an academic department and its building(s). How about 1) moving the Towers Hall article, the weakest of them all IMHO, to List of Loughsborough University buildings and structures, 2) editing the current material down into one section and 3) roughing out an intro and other sections perhaps organized geographically (e.g. group "East Park" ones together) starting with mini-sections linking to the already-existing articles? That gives recent and arriving local authors something to develop. This goes towards parity at other universities, doesn't offend by outright deleting anyone's work, and in the list context it seems fair to cut down the detail about this one building. I say keep the strong sentence

The building is a Locally Listed Building of important interest, its description on Charnwood Borough Council's record states that it is a "severe ‘modern’ high rise block comprising 2 towers of 22 and 18 storeys linked by a central access tower" and is significant for its "cold, grey modular pre-cast concrete construction".

and the floor layout picture, drop the duplicative verbiage about layout, edit down the rest. :) That's my two cents, I think translating to a "Keep, but rename and refocus into a list" vote. --doncram 06:08, 9 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. Yikes, I didn't see subsection Loughborough University#Student halls with its table of 16 residences hiding in the university article's "Student Life" section. I say sweep that into the list-article, add a photos column, so all students feel represented (don't I sound patronizing?), limit all description of Towers Hall to the space of one largish box in a "Details" or "Description" or "Comments" column. --doncram 06:20, 9 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect 90 percent of the sources covering this book are actually about the larger series and only mention this particular book in passing. Also, GNG for books suggests that editors use common sense about when a book merits its own article and says, "Editors may use their discretion to merge or group two or more related topics into a single article." In this case, since the author has written a few dozen children's books in the same series, it makes sense to group them all into one article unless one particular book obtains some special additional notability which this one does not seem to have.

  • Delete as per WP:NOTSOAPBOX, WP:NOTESSAY and WP:OR. The problem with this article is summed up neatly by User:Curiocurio who argues above that the article is "presented from a First Nations standpoint which is... more appropriate for this subject than a 'neutral'" voice. Precisely. The article, with the exception of a few nods to sourcing, speaks in a timeless voice, the voice, that is, of a non-linear cosmology attributed to indigenous peoples by anthropologists, a voice in which timeless attitudes ("Salmon are seen by the Coast Salish peoples are beings similar to people but spiritually superior.") are asserted without regard for the NPOV fact that, statistically, contemporary Salish have about the same proportion of skeptics, scientists, evangelical Christians, the religiously indifferent, trendy new-agers and so forth as does the general population. Who knows if any of them believes that salmon are "spiritually superior"? Article not only fails to distinguish Salish attitudes and beliefs by era, it fails to distinguish among the distinct Salish peoples. This is like writing about "Europeans;" it can be done, but an NPOV article would point out that among Salish as among Europeans, different groups speak distinct languages, eat different foods, preserve the fish they catch in different ways and so forth. And it totally fails to encounter the fact that foodways, folkways, language and belief systems change over time. "Salish" itself is a concept and ethnonym imposed by Western culture on a a group of several distinctive indigenous peoples at a particular date. This article, in short, is neither NPOV nor is it encyclopedia-worthy. Moreover since using Wikipedia as a SOAPBOX to speak in an imagined and timeless "native" voice appears to be the intention of the article creator, it needs to be deleted.

  • Calm down, turbo. I made no statement about your motivation, as you are clearly implying. What I referred to was WP:OR content: non-obvious information having no citation, such as her employment history ("she headed the Department of Languages and Literature at Huntingdon College"), is ipso facto WP:OR. You can remove this if you wish...it's a peripheral issue. The real problem is lack of notability: there are only a few citations and they have only trivial mentions of Trimble (including one that calls her "prestigious" using scare quotes). Moreover, the standard sources don't show any impact of her work, e.g. WorldCat lists her new book (no holdings), her dissertation (1 holding), and her book "Marty and the Million Man March" (2 holdings). This is not the fodder of WP:PROF. Agricola44 (talk) 15:19, 20 April 2016 (UTC).[reply]

  • Comment. Hey let's try to make this constructive. The creator of the article appears to be brand new to Wikipedia, and deserves some support, and it's not necessary to rush to crush a pretty innocent starter article about an elementary school. Note there is no an emergency here, there is not a wp:BLP violation, and it really does not hurt anyone that the article exists. It was started with "Valleyview Centennial school is an elementary school in Brandon, Manitoba. It is for grades K to 6", which is fine, right? I mean no one contests the accuracy of that.
Okay then, what can be done? For one, the article could be improved. Has the deletion nominator performed wp:BEFORE and looked for sources that might provide useable information? We can at least attempt to look in on-line sources. I wonder who has access to a literature search that includes newspapers of Canada and specifically of Manitoba. To the creator, do you have other material to add? In particular do you have anything published about the school, such as a history of it, or a history of the area which includes coverage of the school?
Second, the so-far-suggested alternative was to redirect the article to Brandon, Manitoba#Education. The guideline (or essay?) wp:SCHOOLOUTCOMES does not dictate that that is the correct redirect target in this case. Would a better alternative be possible? Any related article could possibly be a redirect target or it could be a useful link to include in the article itself, if the article survives this process. I think many elementary and middle school names often have been redirected to school district articles, where the school is mentioned. The link target mentions 3 separate high schools; perhaps one alternative is to mention the elementary school in the article for its high school, and to redirect to there. The link target mentions a "Brandon School Division #40", what is that? --doncram 18:52, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

does not meet academic notability criteria Sansculotte93 (talk) 14:34, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notability criteria not met in the article:

1. The person's research has made significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.

There is no indication of this in the article.

2. The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level.

The awards mentioned are all doctoral and research fellowships, which do not qualify as 'highly prestigious'

3. The person is or has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society for which that is a highly selective honor (e.g., the IEEE).

Fellowship of the Royal Historical Society does not seem to meet this criteria. Fellowship of the HEA is commonplace in UK HE institutions.

4. The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions.

No indication of this.

5. The person holds or has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research (or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon).

No

6. The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed academic post at a major academic institution or major academic society.

No

7. The person has made substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity.

No

8. The person is or has been the head or chief editor of a major, well-established academic journal in their subject area.

No

9. The person is in a field of literature (e.g., writer or poet) or the fine arts (e.g., musician, composer, artist), and meets the standards for notability in that art, such as WP:CREATIVE or WP:MUSIC.

  • Delete for failing WP:NF. Understanding that even an unreleased film might meet inclusion criteria of WP:NFF (paragraph 3), I gave the thing a face-lift per MOS:FILM. Sadly, pre-internet Indian films are difficult to source, and it never being released makes it more difficult. While the cast and crew are sourcable (even with some now deceased), I could not find suitable coverage for this 1981 project. If someone comes forward with Tamil-language sources, ping me. Thanks.

  • Delete. Expanding on MichaelQSchmidt's comments, WP:NFF would allow for an article if the failure to be distributed was notable in itself. But the article tells us only that the failure to distribute was for "several reasons", without sourcing the statement or even telling us what those reasons were.
