Code Lyoko: Rebirth[edit]

This is, by its own admission, an American fan created extension of the French Code Lyoko TV franchise. If it ever makes it to TV then it could be notable but there is no indication that this will ever be more than a web based fan production on YouTube, even if it is an authorised one. So we have no proof of notability, no independent references and a clear conflict of interests problem too. I see this as a slam-dunk deletion case but the author does not agree and has not agreed in the past. Rather than go round the loop of it being deleted and recreated again, with only 2 or 3 people involved, I'd like us to have a discussion here with wider inclusion and reach a decision we can all understand, respect and stick to. (If nothing else I hope it will prove that this isn't just me being mean but even if that were to be the consensus at least it would resolve the matter once and for all.)

  • Delete. This seems reasonable. As it stands, I can't find any real coverage of this project in reliable sources, and a quick look through the YouTube channel shows they don't have much work done, so they're unlikely to get any for a while. WP:CRYSTAL comes to mind. — Earwig talk 22:21, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete "Fan-created"; why isn't this A7'ed? Unless a network is snookered into picking this up somehow, fan-created projects earn automatic deletions, and this is no exception. Nate (chatter) 01:07, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Questionably notable and improvable as the article has stayed basically exactly how it started in August 2010 and the best my searches found were only here, here, here and here, nothing outstanding to suggest immediate better artists notability and improvement here.

  • This article is as promotional as the original version was, the one deleted by JamesBWatson in 2010--in fact, it looks to be a carbon copy. At the time DGG removed a speedy deletion template (guess I missed that, Boing), but look at phrases like "The knowledge we have gathered is the fruit of many years of experiments with temperature control". The creator, Leochou, has done nothing positive to the article, and has only restored the unencyclopedic and promotional content. (Note that Mean as custard also removed 12k of promotional material, three years ago.) There are no reliable sources, nothing to mitigate the resume-style vanispam. Thanks for the nomination: it's time for this to go. Drmies (talk) 22:15, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep because of meeting the criterion for WP:CREATIVE, having multiple works in major museums. There can always be a question of whether the museums are major enough, but the speedy I removed was for A7, and having those works was certainly enough to pass Speedy. The promotionalism has been a problem. But looking at the article history, there hasn't been a major attempt at adding (or adding back) promotionalism since 2012, so we seem to be able to keep this fairly clean. It could certainly be cleaned up further. DGG ( talk ) 22:26, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per the keep above and because deletion is not cleanup. Thisisnotatest (talk) 08:00, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Totally promotional article, which easily qualifies for speedy deletion under criterion G11. If the subject satisfies Wikipedia's notability guidelines (which may be so, but sources showing that it is so have not been provided) then it will be better to delete this unsuitable article and write a better one if someone is willing to do so, but far too often we get people arguing to keep a crap article on the grounds that it "can be cleaned up", and then, when it is kept, show no interest whatever in actually cleaning it up. I have no doubt that the motives of editors making such arguments are honourable, but the practical effect is that we keep articles in a state which nobody thinks should be kept. As long as the article is spam it qualifies for deletion, and should not be kept on the basis of speculation about the merits of some hypothetical non-spam article which doesn't actually exist. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:02, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I'd agree with the keep if there were references from independent reliable sources which backed up the claims made in the article. But there aren't, and I couldn't find any. Searches didn't turn up enough in-depth coverage to show they pass WP:GNG. The article could be deleted on notability grounds, but also as per WP:DEL4, since it reads like a promo piece for the artist. Onel5969 TT me 14:16, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep References have been found for most seasons now which should be enough to satisfy WP:GNG Seasider91 (talk) 22:36, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Merge to Toronto FC#Players of the Year, but only sourced winners. Only a few references have been found, and the references that were found, are for winners long ago. It doesn't support the article's current relevancy as stated recent winners like Giovinco, Bradley, and Caldwell, all do not have sources. I can't find a single source that says Giovinco has won this award from last season. Just because some references were found for players long ago, if no references are found for current players, it doesn't prove its current relevancy to the club. TFC and MLS haven't ever published an article on this award from what I've researched. In the article's current state, I would delete, as it doesn't support current relevancy to today without more current references. Vaselineeeeeeee (talk) 01:11, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please clarify that while this is the second nomination for a page with this title, it is unrelated to the Colin Jensen who was the subject of the first iteration.
I created this article after seeing a broken link for Colin Jensen on the page for City of Brisbane. It was indeed not made to make a point about his salary. I was hesitant leaving an entire section for remuneration - I'll work on that; this is the first article that I have made. I respectfully dispute that he is an insignificant public servant - I would contend that the CEO of the largest LGA in the country is rather significant. Give me some time to beef it up a bit, thanks! Prymal (talk) 11:21, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The chief executive of a major city council is clearly notable and hardly "insignificant". -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:45, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
please point to the notability guideline which says this LibStar (talk) 11:34, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Why do you always demand guidelines as if that's the be all and end all of Wikipedia? Common sense doesn't need guidelines. This is the day-to-day manager of a city of two and a quarter million people for crying out loud! -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:37, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
because that's how we assess notability. We have established guidelines. For ages you used to carry on about all ambassadors being automatically notable because it's common sense when there is no guideline or consensus which states that. Then you said being ambassador to Russia is automatically notable despite everyone else on the AfD voting delete. Time to stop inventing your own notability bar and stick to established guidelines. Or better still actually search for sources to establish WP:BIO. LibStar (talk) 04:33, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I think you should probably try reading WP:BURO. Amazed you haven't done already given how long you've been here. Wikipedia is governed by consensus. Consensus is created largely at AfD. We are here to discuss whether this individual is notable, not immediately disqualify him because there's no guideline that specifically says he is (that would mean Wikipedia was a bureaucracy and would render AfD discussion pointless). I have an opinion. I am entitled to express it. This is not "inventing [my] own notability bar". It is saying what I believe to be true in the best interests of Wikipedia. You really need to learn the difference. And for the record, I still believe that ambassadors are inherently notable! Consensus for the moment is against me, which is why I have generally stopped bothering to argue it. It certainly doesn't mean I've changed my opinion. Neither does it mean that I'm not entitled to express my opinion (odd that you seem to think it does - clearly you're not really a fan of discussion on Wikipedia). And consensus can change. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:49, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You seem not to understand how notability works in Wikipedia. People in particular must meet one of the notability guidelines if not the basic WP:GNG or WP:BIO applies yet I've never seen you actually demonstrate or search for coverage which is the best way to save an article instead quoting "opinions" that don't have any consensus as some sort of pseudo notability guideline, it really is WP:ITSNOTABLE. Consensus does change but you need to argue your case for changing notability guidelines on respective talk pages which many editors do if consensus changes. LibStar (talk) 15:38, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And you seem not to understand how not to patronise very experienced editors. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:59, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
it's not patronising, as an experienced editor you should know how afds work, again you're making no genuine attempt to find sources. And again your pseudo notability opinion doesn't have consensus. LibStar (talk) 15:17, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete whilst a mayor of a large city council is usually granted notability, chief executives do not, and thus need to satisfy WP:BIO. he is a senior public servant but insufficient in depth coverage. LibStar (talk) 11:34, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete His position is not notable enough and he still doesn't meet the GNG benchmark given the sources cited. Delta13C (talk) 09:13, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Can you please clarify what GNG benchmark means?Prymal (talk) 08:25, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Not an inherently notable position and fails GNG. Doctorhawkes (talk) 12:42, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. A city manager or CAO can get into Wikipedia if an article about them can be written that's substantive enough and well-sourced enough to pass WP:GNG, but it is not a position that can confer an automatic inclusion freebie just because the person exists — and there are many places much larger than Brisbane where the CAO does not have an article, so Brisbane's size has no bearing on the matter one way or the other. One of the reasons we have inclusion standards and reliable sourcing requirements is that having a Wikipedia article is actually a double-edged sword — because we're an encyclopedia that anybody can edit, a significant number of anybodies regularly try to misuse us as a venue for publishing attack edits against our article topics. So Wikipedia's standards are designed to mitigate against that, by ensuring that our subjects have (a) sufficient media coverage by which the content can be properly verified, and (b) enough public prominence that a reasonable number of responsible Wikipedians can actually be expected to maintain a satisfactory level of quality control over the article. There is a level of prominence below which the wiki model falls flat on its face, because there are so few people visiting the article that vandalism or attack edits can go uncaught for weeks or even months at a time because nobody's even seeing it. So our inclusion standards and RS requirements and WP:BLP rules are designed in part around the principle of protecting people from the unintended consequences of a Wikipedia article — so for that reason, one editor's subjective opinion about "common sense" cannot trump WP:GNG or WP:RS.

There list is currently entirely original research, because there are no sources ranking these railway stations. The rankings currently seem to be based on the number of trains that visit each, taken from a primary source; therefore, there is no way to be sure that other stations with more traffic do not exist.

I do not believe that it is clear that bae is an acronym. The main source for the article states that 'One tale supposes that bae is in fact the acronym BAE, standing for “before anyone else.” But people often like to make up such origin stories that linguists later discover were absolute poppycock, like the idea that the f-word is an acronym dating back to royal days when everyone needed the king’s permission to get in the sack'. Bae is more likely to be a backronym, and I believe it is unlikely that any reliable source will prove to the contrary. Matt J User|Talk 18:57, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete (see below) I checked HighBeam, Questia and General OneFile and found very large numbers of news and trade journal articles on various topics where a Williams Kastner lawyer was quoted for an expert opinion, and some news stories where they were mentioned in passing as representing a party in a legal issue. That's something, but not enough. I found one (1) article where they were the primary topic and which contains extensive information about the law firm itself, rather than being passing mention:
    • McNair, Elizabeth (2 June 1995), "Seattle law firm 'builds international relationships.' (Williams, Kastner and Gibbs)(Doing Business with the Russian Far East)", Puget Sound Business Journal,  – via General OneFile (subscription required) , pp. 3A+ 1411 words

      The author Elizabeth McNair is not a Puget Sound Business Journal reporter, she is president of McNair Marketing Management, suggesting this is a paid-for or in-kind puff piece. If we could find one more article, with a more independent author, or a full chapter in a book, or perhaps a TV program where Williams Kasntner is the sole subject, I'd switch to keep. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 01:35, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    1. Margolick, David (1992-08-07). "At the Bar; From the mountains to the prairie to the oceans white with foam, a law firm sells itself". The New York Times. Archived from the original on 2015-01-02. Retrieved 2016-01-02.

      The article notes:

      But a bold experiment, or at least what counts for one in the world of pin stripes and white shoes, is under way in Seattle. Forty-three times last month, in 60 seconds of saccharine broadcast during commercial breaks on the local news, "Good Morning, America" and "This Week With David Brinkley," the 110-lawyer firm of Williams, Kastner & Gibbs sang of its commitment to excellence.

      On the screen were actors impersonating lawyers at work and play -- sailing, fishing, water skiing, jogging, reading to their children, all All-American towheads who look like young Al Gore 3d. Also on display were soaring images of the Pacific Northwest. Seattle may be short of prairies and fruited plains, but as the commercial made clear, it has plenty of purple mountains majesty and oceans white with foam.

      One would be hard-pressed to know from all this that Williams, Kastner is actually a law firm, the seventh largest in the Northwest, let alone that it specializes in such mundane matters as insurance defense work and corporate litigation for the likes of Aetna, Johnson & Johnson and the General Motors Acceptance Corporation. In fact, one wouldn't even know the firm has a telephone or an address. But wherever Williams, Kastner is, it is clearly morning there.

      The article further notes:

      As befits corporate lawyers, Williams, Kastner did not tread onto Madison Avenue lightly. How would clients react on seeing the firm tout itself on "Meet the Press?" Thus, before anyone had seen the first gauzy images of children feeding pigeons in Westlake Mall or sailing on Lake Union, the firm's managing partner, Jerry Edmonds, sent out a sincere alert to the firm's 325 top clients.

      He explained to them why the firm had taken its first few baby steps into hucksterdom ("Williams, Kastner & Gibbs is not as well known as we believe it should be"), assured them that the firm had not lost its marbles (the commercials, he wrote, were priced "affordably") and hinted that lest they thumb their noses at the undertaking, they, too, stood to benefit ("The more successful we can be, the more we can develop our capabilities to serve you"). And, in case they had any reactions, he enclosed a "feedback form" and a stamped envelope.

    2. "In the Summer of 1992, An Event Took Place That Made Television History". ABA Journal. 78. American Bar Association: 95. November 1992. Retrieved 2016-01-02.

      The advertisement has quotes from The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal about Williams, Kastner & Gibbs:

      "A bold experiment...to deliver an image, announce one's presence, disseminate one's name. Wherever Williams, Kastner & Gibbs is, it is clearly morning there."

      The New York Times

      "Stylishly photographed and produced...some lawyers and law firm consultants predict that other corporate law firms...may follow Williams, Kastner & Gibbs' lead."

      The Wall Street Journal

      The New York Times article is the first source I listed here. The Wall Street Journal is not available online but is a second source about Williams, Kastner & Gibbs.
    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Williams, Kastner & Gibbs to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

  • Keep per Cunard.

  • Keep  Every Kreuz or Dreieck connects two Autobahns, and the encyclopedia has good coverage of the Autobahns.  There is no policy basic to delete at AfD a topic already covered elsewhere in the encyclopedia.  These Kreuz's and Dreieck's satisfy the fundamental purpose of notability, to limit topics to those described in the nutshell as "attracts the attention of the world at large".  Given that major roads in Western civilization attract ongoing daily attention from multiple layers of government and news media as well as the general public, and whose minor defects have the ability to remove politicians from office, editors bringing articles like this to AfD need to focus on WP:V and WP:NOT rather than WP:N.  Unscintillating (talk) 01:14, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Our baseline is the WP:GNG, and this subject has just not attracted "significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject" to warrant coverage as a separate article. WP:V is not the right standard to use for determining if a subject gets an article. Imzadi 1979  02:53, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • No, WP:GNG-centrism is a known bias in our community.  WP:GNG is a subset of WP:N.  WP:V is a core content policy, and not a notability guideline.  Regards, Unscintillating (talk) 00:34, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • One of the few US interchanges with an article, the Springfield Interchange, is not too far from here; but the reason it has an article is that there has been a lot of press on it over the years because of the long series of alterations caused partly by changes in the connecting roads but also because it was for many years grossly inadequate. Meanwhile the rest of the DC beltway interchanges just sit there and only show up in traffic reports and in routine traffic statistics. Sure, inerchanges have the potential for notability, but few actually achieve it: mostly they perform as designed, and there is little remark about that. Mangoe (talk) 17:59, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

          • I've done a lot of lighthouse articles, but the thing is, people write books and large websites on lighthouses, and it is possible to provide a history on nearly all of them. The same can be done for a few interchanges, but not many. Mangoe (talk) 18:04, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Notability" is not synonymous with "fame" or "importance."

  • Delete. NN journo doing their job.TheLongTone (talk) 14:51, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I've added some additional references. A previous discussion after I created the page in February 2015 decided this journalist was notable enough for inclusion. I would argue as contributors did then that regular contributions to The Guardian and teaching on behalf of that newspaper is an assertion of notability. If it is decided this entry should be removed, I would suggest many other journalists' entries should also be removed, e.g. Jon Henley, Jenny Kleeman, Jon Bounds, and that perhaps my project to increase the coverage of journalists here is misguided. Journotracker 15:29, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - There was only one previous discussion that took place November 26 2013. What you refer to in 2/2015 was a comment that the article did not meet the criteria for A7 deletion and was not a discussion by the Wikipedia community. If we review the references in the article I find 4-404 pages; 4-lists of articles she penned; 2-instances of her name being in a list; 6-minor mentions; 1-lacking any mention of the individual; and 1-self published blog article. These are hardly enough to support the inclusion of the individual in Wikipedia. Have I missed something? reddogsix (talk) 19:09, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Agree that subject is sufficiently notable to be included as she regularly contributes to notable press titles. Wikipedia features many lesser known subjects. Subjects do not need to be stars in order to be included, but notable enough to be cited by reliable sources that meet Wikipedia standards. This subject fits that criteria. Current Wikipedia coverage of journalists is very weak compared to celebrities etc, and more coverage (as long as impartial, meaningful and well cited) should be encouraged. -- delilah_folk 19:27, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Please provide where, "...contributes to notable press titles," is a criteria for inclusion into Wikipedia. I see no extensive review of the articles. Wikipedia may include lessor subjects, but we are discussing Lauren Razavi, no one else. Read WP:WAX - other stuff may exist, but it has no bearing here. You refer to reliable sources, but the "references" are trivial in nature - see the breakdown above. I cannot comment on the coverage of journalists; however, I agree that coverage of all qualified subjects should be encouraged, but not at the expense of the established standards. (By the way, no one is discouraging their inclusion.) reddogsix (talk) 20:25, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've just replaced the three links with errors that a user mentioned above. All links direct to valid pages now. -- delilah_folk 20:18, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - At present no indication that the subject is notable per WP:NACTOR. I'd probably recommend redirecting to Piya Ka Ghar Pyaara Lage, but that article doesn't exist. (It's a redirect.) Problematic references as well, like this one and this one, I think the article creator, Wiki Guide might need a course in reliable sourcing since many of the articles he's created (in a really short span of time) are problematic.

  • Delete Does not meet WP:NMUSIC, which requires 2 albums or proof of national charting. I don't have access to Icelandic materials, so I am basing this on the article, but I don't see 1) multiple albums 2)major label 3) national charting 4) awards. You could easily argue that this policy does not make it easy for indie bands or musicians from outside major Western countries to get into WP, and I couldn't disagree, but that's what we have to work with. Even without trying to stick to some strict letter of the policy, nothing here speaks to notability. They are a band. They tour. They have an album. LaMona (talk) 06:59, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Delete, starting with no indication of notability. A Google search using the title of the book found no relevant discussion of the topic. A search using some of the content turned up two other Wikipedia pages: Books written in Different Ways, which was later moved to the page under discussion, and Five books written in five ways, which was Speedy Deleted as (G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement: A7 - individuals); however, there's no indication of what it might be a copy of. Perhaps http://highrangebookofrecords.com/five-books-written-in-five-different-ways-using-pen-henna-needle-paper-carbon/, listed as one of the references; the Wikipedia page is closely based on it, though not clear to me if it is legally a copyvio. However, what is clear to me from the original source is that these books were not originally written in unusual ways--which could potentially be a worthwhile article--but that some guy decided to transcribe these noteworthy books using unusual methods.

Her first film is not due to be released for a year, so that does not give her anything yet. Directing one music video...

Only notable as VICTIM whose accused murderer was found not guilty. That's no basis to write an article on and this should only be covered by any article about the accused or the crime. Otherwise fails GNG and PORNBIO Spartaz Humbug! 16:37, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per the previous AfD; notability is not temporary. She was a public figure who was marginally notable for her short career, but enough that her death received significant coverage in reliable sources. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 17:38, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The 2009 AFD was a horror show, and resulted in significant disregard of core policies. Very little of the sourcing is genuinely reliable; instead, tabloid-quality coverage of a sensational murder case was picked up and repeated from mirrors of content that was deleted from Wikipedia uncontroversially in no small part because it was unreliable. Felicia Tang was no more than an uncredited extra in a few mainstream films; at the time of her death, as I recall, she wasn't even mentioned in the full-length IMDB cast lists for those films. She also wasn't a porn performer; instead, she made some T&A videos which were clearly NSFW but apparently no "stronger" than Red Shoe Diaries, Showtime After Dark, and "Skinemax". But through the zeal of some Wikipedia editors who were insistent on memorializing every woman who undresses for a camera, her family now is comforted by an enduring Internet presentation of her as a sex worker and a drug addict. Just about every premise for notability of the subject proves wrong, yet a substantially inaccurate article persists. Not something Wikipedia can be proud of in any way. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 19:55, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • The first of the two 2009 AfD's which you started closed with a Delete six days before her death.  You say now that the AfD'd article was "deleted from Wikipedia uncontroversially in no small part because it was unreliable", and yet I see not a word of "unreliable" in the first 2009 AfD.  Next, why did you say in that 2009 nomination that she failed WP:PORNBIO if you now say that she "wasn't a porn performer"?  And now you seem to be claiming that CBSNews and the LATimes each got their material from Wikipedia mirrors, but these news media are WP:RS, and you are not.  The point is not that your opinion in this regard doesn't matter, but I think you'd need to do more than make unsourced assertions.  Regards, Unscintillating (talk) 08:23, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I think that the previous AfD in 2009 went through a lot of these same issues and is very illustrative here. Basically, the subject under consideration here again now has "been featured multiple times in notable mainstream media" and/or passes GNG pretty easily - with plenty of mentions from Kompas, CBS News (several times), the Los Angeles Times (several times), the Pasadena Star-News, The Sydney Morning Herald, WRC-TV & KTLA - just to name a few. These publications not only covered this subject's death, but they also went into varying amounts of detail about this subject's life before her death. I've pretty heavily edited the article under consideration here (both recently and earlier this year) in order to try & see if there were any valid concerns about content "from mirrors of content that was deleted from Wikipedia", and I tried to be careful to weed out anything that looked odd. These same concerns were apparently aired unsuccessfully in 2009 on the article's talk page as well. If the article needs to be changed (content-wise) or renamed now, then so be it, but Wikipedia can pretty clearly have a reliable article about the subject here at this time.

  • Delete fails to meet notability guidelines for pornographic actors. The coverage of her murder is not enough to propel her to notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:02, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Hullaballoo - I apologize for how this is gonna come out ....but ..... if you take away the death sources you have nothing but IMDb crap (which aren't sources!) ... So despite her being an actress and working at all these different places - the article is only sourced on her death and nothing else (I can't find anything else either on the subject except her death) so IMHO I don't believe she's notable and one could argue Brian Lee Randone could have an article and this be redirected there.... Point is she's "notable" for her death and not much else so as it stands this article is in some respects a Memorial and that's it .... so IMHO she's a non notable actress who fails PORNBIO & GNG. –Davey2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 17:59, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There's nothing wrong with using IMDb as a citation for simple things like their reliable cast listings, especially when (as in this case here) they are backed up by other reliable sources in addition to IMDb. Guy1890 (talk) 07:37, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep firstly because of the previous AfD, notability is not temporary. plenty of reliable sources and high profile case. Clearly keep article. Also per WP:GNG. Just because she made her career within the porn industry doesnt make her notability less notable than an actress within mainstream film.--BabbaQ (talk) 18:46, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Clearly that is not the case otherwise we wouldn't have PORNBIO for porn actors and NACTOR for mainstream actors. Spartaz Humbug! 19:07, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep  There is a case to move to Felicia Tang Lee as the name most often used by reliable sources, especially in Australia, but the 2013 decision of 48 Hours to go with her trade name suggests leaving it where it is.  The article has sources from nationally recognized media both in the US and Australia, with 77 inline citations already present in the article.  The dead links found after the AfD nomination and not notated by the nominator give the impression that the nominator did not click on the links of each of the sources in the article before concluding that they failed GNG.  WP:BEFORE analysis has not been provided for the versions of this article on three other Wikipedia's.  I'll list a few media with sources I found with Google searches: cbsnews, huffingtonpost, and LA Times; and from Australia abc.net.au, dailytelegraph.com.au, and theaustralian.com.  CBSNews continued to follow this story into 2014 with a news article and a 48 Hours segment called "The Preacher's Passion".  The segment initially aired on June 1, 2013 and was updated on Aug. 2, 2014.  A quote, "Brian Randone's murder trial lasted four weeks. The trial had become quite the sensation, with local media dubbing it the case of 'the preacher and the porn star.'  The newspapers just grabbed onto that..."  (www.cbsnews.com/news/the-mysterious-death-of-felicia-tang/)  Unscintillating (talk) 08:23, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, or Redirect to Bundesautobahn 11 with Template:R with possibilities  Every Kreuz or Dreieck connects two Autobahns, and the encyclopedia has good coverage of the Autobahns.  There is no policy basic to delete at AfD a topic already covered elsewhere in the encyclopedia, and this one policy requirement refutes each of the above delete arguments or pseudo-arguments.  The most that policy allows with a consensus of non-notability is a full merge to one of the target articles.  (This would be before consideration of WP:DUE and WP:V.)  The argument that this topic fails either WP:N or WP:GNG carries little weight; first since no attempt has been made above to determine if GNG sources exist; and second because these Kreuz's and Dreieck's satisfy the fundamental purpose of notability, which is to limit topics to those described in the nutshell as "attracts the attention of the world at large".  Major roads in Western civilization attract ongoing daily attention from multiple layers of government and news media, as well as the general public.  Relatively minor road defects, potholes, can remove politicians from office.  Editors bringing articles like this to AfD need to focus on WP:V and WP:NOT.  This article seems to satisfy WP:V, but the quality of the writing is a draft.  Another alternative here would be to move the article to Draft space and change the resulting redirect to Bundesautobahn 11.  Unscintillating (talk) 00:18, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Major roads attract attention. Major interchanges do not. Autobahns are inherently notable as part of Wikipedia's remit as a gazzeteer. Interchanges between notable Autobahns do not inherit that notability. Otherwise I could write an article on the ridiculously non-notable interchange between I-75 and I-10 not too far from here and crush AfD arguments on it with "WP:ITEXISTS". - The Bushranger One ping only 04:00, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. WP:RUNOFTHEMILL cloverleaf interchange; all interchanges on Autobahns are named so there is no special presumption of notability, and no evidence of WP:GNG being met. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:00, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm puzzled to see you still quoting WP:RUNOFTHEMILL after I quoted to you what it says about roads.  Did you read what I reported?  It says that we don't need road coverage of every square mile of cities including cul-de-sacs.  It also makes the rather interesting point rarely seen on Wikipedia that one reason to avoid making masses of road articles is that we don't have the editors to maintain such articles.  In comparison, the 200 German Kreuz's and Dreieck's are the very opposite of run-of-the mill.  Unscintillating (talk) 21:02, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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 (companies) requirement. Marslo2015 (talk) 21:52, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep. While Volkov Commander (VC) is no longer maintained, it was one of the most wide-spread alternative Norton Commander-style file managers in DOS times (up into the late 1990s) and was particularly notable for its extremely small size and speed. At its time it saw detailed reviews and comparison tests with other file managers in local and international computer magazines and was a regular part of many typical DOS installations, in particular where Norton Commander was not suitable for size, speed or price reasons. Even today, decades after its heydays, it can be found on several download sites. This is clearly a notable topic by Wikipedia standards.
While I could provide a bunch of references from archived magazines, I don't have the time for it right now, unfortunately. However, the article in the Russian WP has a number of references, which could be used to improve our local article.
Besides, I consider it frivolous for a new account such as the nominator's to nominate a whole article series about well-known file managers for deletion after his original attempts to PROD (f.e. [4]) them over Christmas were contested (f.e. [5]) and a discussion opened ([6]) already, so the nominator appears to be more interested in getting rid of a bunch of articles by all means than discussing potential improvements. This is extremely bad style if not destructive behaviour, and it is wasting the precious time and energy of faithful contributing editors with procedural issues, which could be better spent working on articles. While the account is new, the nominator's actions show familiarity with Wikipedia's procedures much beyond what is typical for a new user. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 20:19, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the coverage is about the show debut, so this may be a WP:BLP1E matter at this time.

  • Keep The above links include one from an Atlanta-based publication, showing indepth coverage from publications far from Chef Irie's home base.

Vague article on non-distinctive topic, promoting one specific view of it. Part of a complex of very similar articles. They probably all need to be looked at to see which ones are worth saving, but this is the worst of them DGG ( talk ) 20:47, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure exactly what articles you mean, but I'd expect this to be the 'worst of them' because it is the most recent. I have been given advice on providing proper citations, and I've started working on doing that. I'd like to improve the article, and have others in the same field help improve it - I am certainly aware of the need for improvement.

If you had a list of specific things I can do to make this, and the other articles you mention, hang together better, I'd be happy to start tackling the project.

This particular subject, lies in two separate, but connected fields - services and governance.

There articles on governance, such as those on the King III report, the Cadbury report and on 'comply or explain' governance.

There are also articles on services. From many different perspectives, some out of date, some very specific to some industries, and some, I think, fairly up-to-date and current. These cover subjects such as service management, iT service management, SOA, IT governance, and similar.

This particular subject, service governance, along with enterprise service management, is, part of a discipline convergence that's been on-going for a few years.

  • Keep My first impression was WP:TNT, whatever the author was writing about was so jargonized as to be unusable; but I've rewritten some of the article, and while I think that it needs better sourcing, I believe that it is a valid topic. I have found the term used in what I think is this sence in a number of articles in GoogleScholar, some within an IT context and some within the broader corporate context, and one even in cross-organizational context. "Towards a service governance framework for the internet of services." This article was created on 10 December 2015 by Fustbariclation~enwiki who has been an editor since 8 August 2005. I've been able to identify two other articles that may, or may not, be in the nest mentioned by DGG in the nomination, namely:
  1. Enterprise service management which appears to be a subset of "service governance" and should be a candidate for merger, and
  2. ITIL/service design package

G6 and G7 speedy rationales apply (although time isn't of any essence here). Simple redirect to article with the "D" in Dan capitalized (I don't think it's necessary anymore for such redirects to exist...if it still is, then apologies and nevermind about the whole thing). Froglich (talk) 04:22, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note: upon creating this AfD via Twinkle, the system generated the alert tag in the "Hurricane Dan" article, not the "Hurricane dan" one. Don't know what's going on with that, but I moved the tag to the redirect article.--Froglich (talk) 04:25, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Froglich: Probably TW was redirected to Hurricane Dan. Anyway, redirects are discussed at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion so this should really be taken there. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 18:21, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural delete as unnecessary redirect. However, I really don't see the point of bringing useless but harmless redirects to AfD. Happy Squirrel (talk) 16:41, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Part of the reason was that I suspect there's a bug in the code somewhere, as both pages were created simultaneously when I created "Hurricane Dan" (capitalized 'D') -- at least the history of the lower-case 'd' page seems to indicate so. Maybe a new bot would help cleaning up these sorts of duplicate-but-for-case types of articles. (My worry, of course, is that deleting one might delete both...at least in this particular instance, as they seem weirdly linked.)--Froglich (talk) 06:12, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Completely unsourced biography of a person notable only as a non-winning candidate for political office. While there was once a time when unsuccessful candidates in leadership conventions were accepted as notable on the grounds that they added valuable context to the convention coverage, that's no longer accepted as a claim of notability in its own right if you can't claim anything else (such as actually having served as an MP or an MLA) alongside it — and there's no sourcing here to put a WP:GNG claim on either.

  • Conditional keep. Judging by Google searches on the party's name in Romanian, this is generating quite enough press coverage in Moldova at the moment for notability, even if, so far, it has been only just about noticed in Romania and scarcely at all further afield. But, even if we are having to rely almost entirely for the moment on Romanian-language Moldovan sources, we need someone who understands enough Romanian to pick out the reliable ones and source the article from them.

It's not clear whether she is notable or not. The three non-GRG sources here describe her entire notability on the mistaken (at that time) belief that she was the oldest African-American and oldest living American at the time of her death. Now, the GRG 'verified' Weaver's information in July 2014 (see Gertrude_Weaver's page) which is the only detail for the header. I'm not certain that someone who in fact at best the second oldest living American and second oldest living African-American (and I think 4th oldest living person) is really notable based on sources that would almost be WP:ROUTINE if the oldest person had died.

Virtually unsourced (there is one "Source: Winnipeg Free Press, 6 June 1953" lurking inside the body text, but it lacks the article title and isn't supporting anything noteworthy) biography of a person notable primarily as a non-winning candidate for political office and the president of a fringe political party's internal orgchart.

  • Delete but without prejudice against recreating if better sources can be found. Iranian academics are a place where we often lack access to sources that could prove notability if it existed; but it is the responsibility of the article authors to provide them. I can't find them here or on the net and don't know where to look. If recreated with sourcing, I wouldn't hold this AfD against it, but for now, delete. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 01:44, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
