I see no notability here per NSPORTS or Project Tennis. No main draws on the WTA Tour, No wins as a Jr in the jr grand slams, No wins in $35,000+ events in the tennis minor leagues. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:55, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As was already pointed out:
  • This player is the No. 3 in her country
  • The player has competed in the singles and doubles events at the junior 2014 US Open and the junior 2015 French Open, and won one game in the singles at RG in 2015.
  • The player has competed in and won matches in $50,000 tournaments in 2016[1]
  • The player has won 9 Singles and 2 Doubles titles on the ITF tour
  • The player's inactivity on the main tour can mainly be attributed to her age.

Our guidelines are pretty darned lenient. The main pro tour is the WTA Tour. All you have to do is compete in the main draw of that tour and you are notable. Just like Baseball. Just compete, not even win. Then you have the minor leagues of $50,000 or above events for the ladies, or the Challenger tour for the men. These are the minor leagues and you have to win in either singles or doubles. These aren't shown on tv. Then you have the minor-minor league tennis events...zillions of them. $35,000 and below. These wins are never notable. Also being on the Olympics team or being in Fed Cup or Davis Cup automatically qualifies a player. Again no wins required... just representing your nation is enough. As a jr. you need to win won of the 4 majors or be ranked #3 jr. This player is none of the above and I've tried to explain this to the editor. Fyunck(click) (talk) 00:30, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Actually what could happen is to put it into your sandbox/userspace in case she does merit it someday. I say there is a good chance she might. Then it doesn't have to be recreated and you could re-insert it. Fyunck(click) (talk) 01:49, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. As noted by others, this is a timeline, not a directory, and as such does not fall under WP:NOTIINFO. It has also been noted that this doesn't fall under WP:SYNTH, either, since all the info in the article is only confirmed facts and not interpretations. See also this related AfD.

WP is not a directory, not a collection of indiscriminate information. This page is WP:SYNTH. Even Google itself does not have this kind of pages. Wikipedia is not in business to document timelines of each and every move of Google products. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:56, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This is not SYNTH, nor is it a directory. It's just a detailed bit of cartographic history. Andrew D. (talk) 21:14, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is going to be a long list of every place, town, city, metropolis, village, hamlet and a few more. That will make it an indiscriminate list of everything, falling foul of WP:NOT and coming close to WP:OR when not sourced. By now, most sources already fail WP:RS. The Banner talk 21:44, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete yet another indiscriminate and hopelessly useless list. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:10, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • No offense intended, but the notion of this being a "useless list" is countered by the 40,022 page views the page has received in the last thirty days, a significant number. At any rate, the article is obviously useful for some of Wikipedia's readers. North America1000 08:44, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge with Google Street View, while most of this article is OR, all that needs to be done is to remove the timeline of introductions as the rest is sourced anyway. - Champion (talk) (contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 23:00, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep - An informative list of updates to an important and popular product. This was discussed four years ago and the result was to keep. Pristino (talk) 07:09, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • There is something to say both for keep and delete. It is the timeline of introductions that makes the article an indiscriminate list of every human settlement existing on earth. But the section before that, about Google Street View itself, are indeed worth keeping. The Banner talk 10:51, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The article is not WP:SYNTH as it provides only facts, not interpretation, and its not indiscriminate as it has a very clear scope (what Google Street view covers, and from when). There's certainly lots of scope to improve the article and its sourcing, but it covers a viable topic. Nick-D (talk) 07:54, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This debate has been included in the list of Technology-related deletion discussions. North America1000 08:46, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Nick-D. Agree that this is not a synthesis, as the article primarily combines confirmed facts without drawing unsupported conclusions from those facts. If there are specific sentences in the article in violation of WP:SYNTH, point them out or delete them through the normal editorial process. Altamel (talk) 16:25, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This article is about the countries and territories available on Google Street View. Diretor Adobe (talk) 22:08, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It's not a directory,but it's a timeline, and that's not forbidden by Wikipedia. There are timelines everywhere. Also people need to know availables countries and territories in Google Street View, included future. --Humberto del Torrejón (talk) 22:19, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above and per Nick-D, this article is the result of a hard work by the people that are following this great service every day since it started, and it was created just for reducing the size of Google Street View article. - EugεnS¡m¡on 07:28, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Factual information, well defined scope, cleanly organized, information not available elsewhere, highly used and referenced based on statistics. Svltr (talk) 22:10, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Very Strong Keep I check this page almost daily...it's the only source I know with very specific updates on new locations for Google Street View. AnimAlu (talk) 04:39, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep per reasons above. Personally, I second AnimAlu's comment quite ardently too.--T1980 (talk) 21:30, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep - This is not the only timeline article on Wikipedia, and is on par with timelines for other technological products and services, such as Timeline of Apple Inc. products. I agree with AnimAlu and T1980 as well, and as an urban planning researcher, I'll admit that I do check this page daily. I would also like to reiterate Pristino's point that four years ago we already had this discussion and the consensus was to keep the page. The one rule which I'd like to propose for the page (and which I imagine will keep it more controlled, less sprawling, and less susceptible to being proposed for deletion) is to list only updates done by Google itself. Street View accepts a lot of user-submitted 360 images, so the map and list would be more representative of Google's output if limited to just those updates. TheAckademie (talk) 12:11, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This is a timeline, not a directory, so that policy doesn't count. Anarchyte (work | talk) 12:09, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It looks like the overall coverage and specific additions have gotten enough coverage for a claim to notability. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:21, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I declined the request for WP:CSD because it did not technically meet the criteria; an assertion of notability does exist in the article. However, I don't see that the subject actually is notable at this time; the film the assertion is based on is a short film and no other significant claim exists, so I don't see that the subject meets WP:FILMMAKER. No prejudice against later creation of the article, if and when notability is established.  Frank  |  talk  14:28, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is all sourced to websites he controls except the IMDb listing. And IMDb has to goal of cateloguing everything. Wikipedia is not meant to be an indiscriminate listing.

  • Delete: Clearly an autobiography. KGirlTrucker81 talk what I'm been doing 20:43, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I understand that there is a rule - but it's only discouraged. Wiki rules say: If you create an autobiography, you must have no promotional intent - which it did not, and must be willing to accept it being neutralized (I do accept it - it is very similar to the Czech Wikipedia page which I did not create). I do not get the point that the references do not proclaim notability - which of the articles, which of the points specifically? Many other members of Forbes 30 under 30 group with similar accomplishments are on Wikipedia - for example Brian_Wong and countless others. I tried to be objective, not promotional, and source every single line I wrote - as I knew there is a bias. If anyone feels to edit it - please do so indeed! Bio rules also say: "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times." The Ernst&Young Awards and Forbes 30 under 30 awards should count. And again, I welcome any addition to the page itself. Jan.Rezab talk 22:30, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete with full force and vigore. This person is a non-notable business person. People should never create articles on themselves, and we should made it automatic grounds for deletion. If someone else has not felt it worth creating an article on you, than you are not notable enough for an article. If you really are, someone will create one. This rule keeps people like my friend who anonymously ran an online Harry Potter fan fiction forum and thought she was clearly notable because of it from creating an article on herself. Not autobiographies. If you are really notable go get an actual book publisher to publisher your autobiography.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:28, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • First of all, its not a rule - it's discouraged - not a rule. Non-notable? Click on any link above, awards, achievements, quotations, 250 book mentions? There are so many people on Wiki with nowhere near that. I get that soft rule (not a hard rule) - but why not, if I quoted everything well? I was not aware of the autobioghraphical rules before I obviously did it, but realized each line would have to be perfectly quoted from outside sources.
Quoting the entire policy with commentary: Jan.Rezab talk 18:30, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
If you create an autobiography, you must have no promotional intent ( Jan.Rezab Doesn't have) and must be willing to accept it being neutralized ( Jan.Rezab No problem) if it is not neutral, or even deleted if it comes to that. If you do turn out to be notable, you must expect the article to stay ( Jan.Rezab Please rate this, again, many fellow Forbes 30 under 30 folks are here) —you cannot just get it deleted because you are not happy with it. Our neutral point of view policy is absolute and non-negotiable ( Jan.Rezab This is perfect!), and all encyclopedic topics are fair game for Wikipedia.
Finally, you should also consider the time and effort expended by the Wikipedia community, as well as the impact to your reputation. Even if you do manage to pull off a neutral, verifiable autobiography, the very fact that so many autobiographies have not been that way has trained Wikipedians to expect the opposite ( Jan.Rezab So it seems...) —and hence editors may feel they are wasting their time or effort if they become provoked by the fact it's still an autobiography, regardless of policy compliance. This may also result in a reputation hit not only because you violated the guideline, but also because editors may feel that you have wasted their effort. ( Jan.Rezab I hope I have not...) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jan.rezab (talkcontribs) 18:52, 27 July 2016‎
  • Delete. It's obviously an autobiography used to promote the achievements of the individual and increase brand exposure of the currently operating companies. Without having a third-party publisher, it subjects the article to WP:NOTOPINION, and therefore, is not objective and is clearly exemplified in the "Public Speaking & Conferences" section. The "Socialbakers" section borders on WP:NOTADVOCATE as the underlying objective is to showcase the success of the company. Additionally, the mention of the "Socially Devoted" benchmark is WP:PROMOTION as it's attempting to garner attention to a measurement that was created under a privately held enterprise. That being said, if the content of this section were re-written in a more objective manner, then it could be seen fit to stand. Within the "History" section, the statement that Socialbakers has raised "more than 30 million" is not factual; if anything, the exact amount of money raised should be stated. Overall, I'd suggest template:ad. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ejames11 (talkcontribs) 18:25, 29 July 2016‎
  • I fixed the funding, the third party publishers are mostly there, right? I already talk about the Socially Devoted award below. Could you guys actually edit the page itself? Jan.Rezab talk 18:30, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • We could, but why would we if we think the article should be deleted? Expecting volunteers to help you clean up after yourself when writing advertising is totally unrealistic. Grayfell (talk) 23:30, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I'll get to Rezab's comments in a second, but only in extreme cases should an article be deleted based on intent. In this case, sources do not meet notability guidelines, and are mostly flimsy PR and churnalism used as WP:BOMBARDMENT. Many of the sources don't even mention Rezab at all. The Forbes thing is puff. It's a listicle which is widely abused to suggest notability, but is a very poor indicator. It's divided into 20 subcategories, making for 600 entries a year, and reliable comments about the list itself are thin. The article could be used as a source itself, but it says almost nothing. Just mentioning the listing is not informative, and further supports that this is based more on self-promotion than being neutral and informative.
Rezab's good-faith comments are noted, but this is a volunteer encyclopedia, not a free PR service. The existence of thinly-veiled advertising like this diminished the quality and reputation of the encyclopedia, and therefore diminishes the work we all do. The article definitely has serious advertising and promotional problems. Claiming that you have no promotional intent is unprovable and in this case, so unbelievable it's hard not to find it insulting. There are too many vague but flattering claims and promotional tidbits included here to accept that. This article reads like advertising, and either you cannot see it because you are not impartial, or you do see it but are pretending otherwise, which is even worse.

Socially Devoted - Try searching for Socially Devoted on LinkedIn for example, 2200 people worldwide use it as a "skill" and list it as an achievements, there are quite many news mentions of it and in that part of the industry, it is actually considered an industry standard quite quite high awareness. All of this is easily verifyable. There are third-party publishers everywhere in the article, right? I tried mostly fact-based elements. I understand now why this is discouraged, very clearly. What do you suggest we do with the article, Delete? or is there any way to fix it? Jan.Rezab talk 18:30, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I said delete and that's what I meant. There is no question mark at the end of that. This is just spam dressed in corporate buzzwords. LinkedIn isn't a reliable source at all. Not even close. The "Socially Devoted" thing is not a claim to notability, it's a product you're trying to promoting through Wikipedia, and right now it just looks like a gimmick sourced to press releases. Grayfell (talk) 23:23, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Re. Socially Devoted - its actually not a product, but was launched as an open standard. Its not a product, you can't "buy it", in fact, it was adopted by many organization and the underlying metric hsa been implemented in the Media Rating Councils guidelines (which I do link). I understand all your points. I do not use LinkedIn for any sourcing in my article - I just used it as an example, and while its not a source, the fact that so many people have used this is a sign of its adoption. People across countries and industries use it to define their skills. Again, not a "product" - an open standard (anyone can use, adopt it, it is not trademarked by the company for that purpose) Jan.rezab (talk) 23:41, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's something you created that you are trying to 'sell'. The adoption of this standard benefits you, and is closely associated with your company and your reputation. It's a "product" in that sense, and that's the sense that matters. What is the Media Rating Council? Nobody else seems to care about that. Please stop trying to promote your company and your ideas on this deletion discussion! Stop doing that anywhere else on Wikipedia, also. Grayfell (talk) 23:54, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Whats the Media Rating Council? Only the most important institution when it comes to making decisions regarding standards. They defined viewability on the web, they defined video, mobile, and many other advertising standards incl. Viewable Impression and others. Why these guys do not have a Wikipedia page really escapes me. I don't believe promoting ideas on a wiki deletion thread does a lot of work, I was just trying to justify some of the notes - thats all. On other points, I disagree, but you make a point of view. If only someone looked into it a bit more. Jan.rezab (talk) 00:16, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is clearly promotional. Should it come back created by a neutral third party I might be inclined to give it more credence. I admit that the unbounded and continued promotion by the creator/autobiographer, in spite of clear statements relating to WP policy, make this very hard to accept. The same person has created an extensive article for the company. It amazes me that someone is unable to understand the deep insult that these articles deliver to those of us who see WP as a source of neutral information, not for personal promotion. I think this should be deleted under WP:PROMO. I also think we ought to watch these articles because anyone so unable to read WP's culture would also be likely to hire out the promotion if it fails under his own name. Honestly, it's offensive.

  • Delete. Google search turns up string editing app by Michel Fortin created around 26 May 2014;[1] Twitter post says Fortin added support for XLIFF 4 Jun 2014.[2] No evidence that this application is widely used for translation/localization (the purpose of XLIFF); but see blogger using CPL. I suspect that translation systems would internally support string editing (that's what translation is all about). Some posts suggest CPL is one of many editors used by non-professionals; see comment "But many need a tool for John Doe the unknown student translator on fiverr. For sure the large 10x as expensive professional translating companies already support it. – Lothar Aug 13 '15".[3] I'm not seeing any secondary sources that tout the app. Current content sounds in advertising and need not be saved in a redirect.

In addition to many local Eureka Springs sources, there's a substantial recent article in the Springfield News-Leader that describes how Eureka Springs is becoming a "Mardi Gras mecca" with a month-long celebration.[4] Probably not yet enough to warrant a separate article, but certainly enough sources to support its inclusion in other appropriate articles. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:29, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The lack of independent sources kind of does this in. Yeah, we have some links to some awards the subject has won - the only problem is that those point to the sites of the people handing out the awards. Not exactly independent sourcing there. Plus, we have an admission that this is a promotional autobiography. I would suggest to Miss Busuioc that she first wait to be covered by independent sources and perhaps allow others to write her autobiography at that point. - Biruitorul Talk 22:59, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. This article very much shows why we strongly discourage people from writing Wikipedia articles about themselves. A Wikipedia article is not supposed to be a CV and, at least currently, this article decidedly is one. As it happens, it is an extremely good CV for an operatic soprano who is not yet 30, but it not only does not clearly demonstrate the subjec's notabililty but actually hides the achievements that could make her notable in Wikipedia terms among far more that definitely do not. For instance, competition prizes are undoubtedly a useful way for up-and-coming musicians to demonstrate their quality, but very few of them help at all towards notabiity - in fact, the few that do are so well-known that it would be pointless to describe them as prestigious. What do usually count are leading roles with world-famous opera companies - the subject's recent Mimi in La Boheme with Los Angeles Opera may well count (but I would prefer to defer to editors from WikiProject Opera on that point) and has certainly generated quite a bit of notice. It is quite possible that her Cio Cio San at the Teatro Comunale di Bologna would also count towards notability, and even if it does not, I would be surprised if the subject does not do enough within the next two or three years ro make her notable. But I am not sure that she is yet. PWilkinson (talk) 21:47, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete with no objection to recreation once the film gains more coverage. There's just not enough out there to justify inclusion and the award looks to be minor as far as Wikipedia is concerned. This isn't meant to slight the film or the award, just that Wikipedia tends to be very selective with their awards and most film festivals awards don't give even partial notability unless the festival itself is notable.

  • Weak keep: I was a bit surprised by this nomination of a known name, who, as the article External Links show, also has written an Opinion piece for the International Herald Tribune / New York Times. However I can also appreciate that the article is largely a list and references to CEO appointments at Lenovo, IBM, NCR etc. (and most recently Avnet, as I have added).

Fails WP:BASIC as none of the secondary sources mention Onche by name - the awards cited were given to films, rather than to specific people involved in those films. I've not been able to find any reliable sources that confirm Onche's role in Oshimiri as being significant. McGeddon (talk) 12:32, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Onaji Stephen Onche sometimes only refer to himself as Onaji Stephen for short as his other name is Onche. In opening and end credit of movies he has done, trailer, social media and other vital documents, he writes his name in full.[2]— Preceding unsigned comment added by ToviaNelson (talkcontribs) 14:32, 8 July 2016‎

I've always felt bad about this article I created about a small Montreal cake and cupcake bakery: I've nominated it for deletion once before, and it was kept as no-consensus. I created in back in 2009, when I was still a relative newbie, and before we had WP:AUD (as far as I know) as a barometer of greater-than-local coverage. Anyway, it is on that basis -- failing WP:AUD -- that I renominate this. Other editors have worked on it, so I can't speedy it. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:11, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A very ordinary DJ with a 30 year career at a NYC station. Fails WP:BASIC; WP:ENTERTAINER; and WP:ANYBIO Steve Quinn (talk) 16:25, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't pass WP:BASIC "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability". There is no substantial coverage in multiple independent sources. Also, I am not seeing other coverage in multiple independent sources - I see one article in a source that I question as being reliable - the one linked to above. Steve Quinn (talk) 00:35, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Also Doesn't pass WP:ENTERTAINER, in order to so this person should: (1) have had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions , which he hasn't; (2) A large fan base or a significant "cult" following -- which has not been shown to be true by any coverage in reliable sources; (3) he has NOT made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment -- or else this would be significantly covered in reliable sources. He stayed at one radio station for over 30 years - that is all that happened.
The only bio produced shows nothing remarkable about this person, all it shows is he had a long career - it verifies he existed. Additionally, it is a local publication. Also, those sources from Billboard magazine need to be produced - I don't see anything such thing during Google searches or Google News or Newspaper searches.

  • Delete. The source provided by Andrew D above links to a localized publication called FishbowlNY — and the article itself cites just two sources of which one is another article in a local newspaper, and the other is his death notice on the web page of the funeral home that held his death services (i.e. a primary source, and a routine one at that since every single person who dies will always have one of those regardless of their encyclopedic notability or lack thereof.) So the evidence does not support that he's the subject of enough substantive coverage to satisfy WP:GNG — the only reliable sources that have been shown here at all are purely local coverage of him in a local context. A local radio personality does not get over WP:CREATIVE just because a couple of pieces of local coverage exist, because local coverage of local radio personalities always exists and we would thus have to keep an article about every single person who ever worked for any radio station at all. For anything short of national network prominence a radio personality must be extralocally sourceable as more notable than the thousands upon thousands of other people in the world who have been longtime local radio personalities in local media markets. But nothing here demonstrates or sources that he's more notable than the norm. Bearcat (talk) 18:50, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Not a reliable source, but in this answer on Quora an Indian journalism student considers the GNS a major, reliable news agency. Based on their about us page they would be notable if it could be verified from an independent source. Given this, I'll agree with John Pack Lambert that without someone familiar with Gujarati doing a WP:BEFORE sweep, it would be premature to delete. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:53, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Could any of you please provide some guidance on whether this article should be kept or not? Thanks, ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:56, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • It is a news agency providing news to small and medium sized newspapers published in Gujarati language. But it is less likely to be mentioned in secondary sources. Searches in Gujarati do not give references which can be used in article. Its claims like "largest" can not be independently verified and less likely to be. It is a news agency so not sure about if it can be considered notable or not.--Nizil (talk) 04:19, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment - Gujarat News Service or Gujarat News Agency - there are no independent or third party sources available in Gujarati language search also. I think it is too early for article to be created in lack of secondary and third party sources for Wiki page to be created or kept. Jethwarp (talk) 03:09, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, given the above comments by Nizil Shah and Jethwarp. Without any information to the contrary and two Gujarati speakers believing that there are no Gujarati sources that would demonstrate notability, there's no other way to !vote here. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 06:35, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The sources that still exist are semi-local, and they sound split between paid PR and organic human interest news. Not sure how that stacks up, notability wise. The article itself reads like a bad infomercial once you reach the "Products" section, and the refs about it make the system sound laughably ill-conceived (GetWell systems come with a built-in AOL homepage!).

Proposing deletion as the band does not seem to meet the notability guidelines in WP:NMUSIC. Additionally, CSD:A7 was previously used to delete this exact same page which was recreated several hours after deletion with no significant changes. Dane2007 (talk) 04:21, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: non-notable band, fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC. The only reliable reference is the Shock one (Shock is Colombia's leading alternative music magazine) – Unradio is a university college radio station, and most of the other references are from blogs. Iridescent deleted the article originally, and presumably an article should not be recreated after an A7 deletion – does this article need salting if a second deletion takes place?

    I don't disagree, I'm just noting that we might want to challenge the value of merging unreferenced content.

  • Keep. This article is 12 years old. I don't like saying "other stuff exists" in these discussions, but there is Template:Power Rangers characters that should be used as a guideline to make this sourceable. All it takes is episode sources to satisfy that. — Wyliepedia 04:26, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge/redirect as suggested above. From looking at the Google News hits I think it is possible to write a sentence or two about the subject sourced to reliable sources, but the subject doesn't seem to have much more independent notability than that. Minor characters in significant franchises are often dealt with in character lists. The Keep arguments above aren't based on our policies and guidelines: the fact that the subject is a character in a major franchise does not make them notable, and while the article could be entirely sourced to episodes that would basically turn it into a plot summary, and the age of the article is irrelevant.

Notability not asserted, lacks significant coverage per WP:GNG.

  • In principle, the two notability criteria that a radio station has to meet to be eligible for a Wikipedia article are that (a) it is duly licensed by the appropriate regulatory authority, and (b) it originates at least a portion of its own programming schedule in its own studios rather than operating purely as a repeater of another station. But those details have to be reliably sourced — we have seen hoax articles created about radio stations that don't actually exist at all, so it is not enough to just claim that a radio station exists. But this is entirely unsourced, and that means it has to be deleted. Bearcat (talk) 05:09, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per new edit, and lack of any evidence of not being notable, and especially false accusations.--Crovata (talk) 02:11, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment New edit is one-sided and includes just a small number (3) of references. It does not include numerous negative views about Kulisic's writing. Wikipedia demands proofs of notability not proofs of not being notable. Please, provide proofs of notability in a positive academic way and per Wikipedia rules and guidances.--Vujkovica brdo (talk) 19:34, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • The new article revision is positive, it is not one-sided, it has enough number of references which cover his biography and most important information, and there is hard to find the general criticism of his work. Previous revision had no reference for the accusations on "un-academic" work, by which the nominator "one-sided" premise is invalid. Also, those accusations were supported by the outdated political and cultural ideology of the time. Moreover, as can be seen there existed sources for the article improvement by which, under rule "C.", it was not a candidate for AfD. The proof for notability is provided, obviously the nominator is not familiar with WP:SCHOLAR, by which Š. Kulišić is notable under several conditions.--Crovata (talk) 23:26, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Crovata Did you read WP:SCHOLAR? Which of the nine criteria is applicable to poor Š. Kulišić? Please, substantiate and elaborate just one of the several claimed.--Vujkovica brdo (talk) 06:12, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep since a personal opinion of an author's work is not basis for the deletion of an biographic article. The article could use improvement, but the deletion proposal is evidently guided by a single user's personal opinion, which makes it unacceptable. Sideshow Bob 08:40, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reply The talk page does not contain valid arguments for deletion, and by the way njegos.org is not a reliable source as it is a heavily biased Serb nationalist website. I am not familiar enough with this author's work to comment on its academic quality, but take notice that even complete lunatics such as the pseudo-historian Jovan I. Deretić have their articles here too. Hence, my suggestion is an improvement of the article from a neutral perspective, rather than its deletion. Cheers.

      " I am not familiar enough with this author's work to comment on its academic quality" very good! Then what makes you to request keeping this article if you are not able to elaborate and substantiate WP:SCHOLAR criteria of notability?--Vujkovica brdo (talk) 10:12, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Vujkovica brdo due you understand that the article is invalid candidate for Afd if you're listing (are those reliable?) sources by which the article could be improved? If a scholar is notable for any one of the conditions, and can be substantiated through reliable sources, is notable. He is especially notable by condition 1 (his work made a significant impact in the disciplines), 4 (significant impact on the ethnography and museology institutions), 5 or 6 (he was official in charge of the scientific institutions and associations like National Museum in Bosnia and Herzegovina). Personal editor opinion is invalid criteria for deletion.--Crovata (talk) 17:07, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Crovata This user associated his or her empty statements to the WP:SCHOLAR criteria. "his work made a significant impact in the disciplines"?

Not sure this band meets WP:NMUSIC. Even the article appears to be candid about their notability: "Achieved mild success on the independent circuit in the UK" and "Their debut album sold poorly". As they were around in the early 1990s, it's very tough sometimes, because they could have had wide coverage in the music magazines of the time, meaning an equivalent band in 2016 would easily qualify for inclusion. However, without this sort of evidence, it's unclear whether they justify an article. It may require research and input would be welcome. KaisaL (talk) 14:26, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: really going to struggle to find sources to keep this, I think. They certainly never had any chart success, and never made much impact even within the British indie scene: I don't recall their songs ever being played on BBC Radio 1's The Evening Session (the most likely radio outlet for their music in the early '90s), and if there is any mention of them in NME or Melody Maker I think it will likely be as passing mentions in the "introducing new bands" section of the magazines (I think in NME this was called On at the time), or as the support band in a gig review. Richard3120 (talk) 14:35, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hummer (band)[edit]

Full disclosure: I'm the original creator here, a decade ago when our sourcing and notability standards were very different than they are now -- and they were a minor enough band that I had since entirely forgotten that they and this even existed. Under contemporary standards, however, nothing here passes WP:NMUSIC at all and they can't be reliably sourced over WP:GNG. This was prodded the other day, which I agreed with, but was then deprodded by another editor with the rationale that merging it was preferable to deleting it -- but the problem is that this was a transitional one-off project that sits at the nexus of five different acts with greater notability than this one had, making it impossible to determine where a redirect should point. The involved articles can all just link directly to each other, without needing this to stand alone as a separate article if "crosslinking other notable acts" is really the only notability claim that can be made. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 16:14, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge. The Allmusic bio is sufficient for sourcing basic facts about the band, and it was significant enough to be covered somewhere in articles about McKinnon and Poirier's bands. Dig Circus or FemBots are probably the best merge targets, but the whole set of related articles could really do with looking at to see which can be sourced properly and which should be merged elsewhere. --Michig (talk) 16:29, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've already merged Dig Circus into FemBots, because they had no real notability or sourceability in their own right for anything much stronger than having members who went on to greater notability with another band later on (FemBots need referencing improvement too, but their notability and sourceability are stronger than DC's or Hummer's, and the article just needs to be updated to bring it back into line with Wikipedia's contemporary standards.) What I don't see is how FemBots could possibly take precedence over Ron Hawkins as a redirect target for this. Bearcat (talk) 16:36, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Why not? FemBots included the band's vocalist and guitarist, according to Allmusic. --Michig (talk) 17:05, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Why would the vocalist and guitarist trump the most independently notable and (semi-)famous member? Even under the horribly loose NMUSIC standards of the mid-naughties, Hawkins was the main reason this band was ever actually a valid article topic (as he's the only one of the three who actually has his own independent notability, separately from any of his bands, as a valid topic for a standalone BLP.) And the fact that there are two different, otherwise unrelated article topics with competing claims of precedence for the purposes of a redirect is exactly the problem here.

Google finds no independent sources with substantial coverage (i.e., not passing mentions while covering another subject) of an organization named "writers in oxford". Apparently the Oxford Times regularly covers them, going by the footnotes, but otherwise they reference only one Amazon book page with a passing mention and one event listing on a local, affiliated website. Hence, fails WP:GNG and WP:ORG. Largoplazo (talk) 12:23, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Largoplazo. Thanks for reviewing my article. (I hope I'm using this talk page correctly. I'm not used to it, so apologies if I'm doing it wrong.) I wonder if it's possible to look again at my article? The Oxford Literary Festival is a totally separate organisation of some repute - sponsored by the Financial Times - and reference number one shows WiO giving a talk at this year's event: http://oxfordliteraryfestival.org/literature-events/2016/april-06/writers-in-oxford . You're right that a lot of the references are passing mentions, but I included those only as ways of demonstrating that specific people were members, rather than as proof the organisation exists. Reference number two seems more than a passing mention, as the title says that it's about the 20th birthday of the group - http://www.oxfordtimes.co.uk/news/10059312.Happy_Birthday_to_writers__group_and_bookshop/ - and the article mentions that members include Philip Pullman, who is notable in his own right. Before starting the article, I checked for similar ones to see what I needed to do and came up with Norwich Writers' Circle and Hastings Writers' Group, for example, which seem to have less in the way of external sources. Is it possible to look at this again please, or do you have any suggestions for anything else I can do? I'm fairly new to Wikipedia, so would appreciate any advice you can give. Thanks! Tessthepuppy (talk) 13:18, 25 July 2016 (UTC) @Largoplazo:[reply]
Hi again. I've inserted a couple of links from the Society of Authors website, explaining what WiO is and mentioning a joint event between the two organisations.

  • Merge and redirect to Society of Authors. I wish it were otherwise, but I just can't find anything to show that this organization is ultimately notable per Wikipedia's guidelines, which can be pretty difficult to accomplish even for extremely mainstream organizations. The organization has ties to notable people, but that notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. It's a shame that mainstream culture doesn't pay more attentions to organizations like this, but there's not much that we can do on Wikipedia about that. Now a viable alternative is to include this in the article for Society of Authors as a subsection. The two organizations are separate, however there are enough ties here to where merging some of the data into a subsection isn't impossible, as it was started by members of SoA and they do some activities with them. I think that as long as the section emphasizes that it's an affiliated, separate group and not a branch of the organization itself. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:15, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to July 2016 Kabul bombing. Indeed, the page in question is far too short to justify a spin-off, and the content would be better off in the main article - which is short enough as is. There are only six reactions on the page, one of which (Taliban denial) is already in the main article. GABgab 14:52, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wow, I am appalled by the reasons given for deletion. First of all, sparseness is not an issue so long as it is properly sourced, and as this makes the rounds more governments will naturally comment. Give it time — it is a recent event after all, and the event in and of itself is notable.
    But what really grates my ears is how you seem to imply that just because this isn't a "Western target", no one cares and it should be deleted. Seriously?! Wikipedia as it is suffers from systemic bias and you want to exacerbate it by implying that only Western events and things that apparently only impact the West deserve coverage on Wikipedia? The world is more than just the West. Wikipedia is more than just the West.

  • Delete/Merge (effectively the same thing). (1) At time of writing, this page and the main article are very short and splitting off is definitely not justified. See WP:SPLIT. (2) This is clearly just the latest in a long line of attempts by list-junkies to exhaustively document all the standard predictable condemnations/commiserations, "in case they might be useful in the future", which is not what WP is for. See WP:NOTEVERYTHING. The significant statements should be merged back into the main article, the rest deleted. I'm happy to note that an intelligent precedent has recently been set at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Reactions to the 2016 Nice attack. (3) The last bit of the nomination rationale is clearly facetious and tasteless and should be ignored, or preferably fixed up by the nominator. — Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 18:37, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is rule position, but I have seen the fate of page Reactions to the 2016 Nice attack + (1); more importantly the page view statistics and international reactions with huge difference itself speak for humanitarianism and dual standard for terrorism.

This seems like a worthwhile organization and I'm sorry to have to AfD it, however, after removing a raft of uncited claims from the article I realized all that was left was essentially references to the organization's website itself. A thorough search of Google News finds a smattering of RS references, but all in passing and non-substantive (e.g. "Microsoft Philanthropies has partnered with more than a dozen nonprofits to deliver support to refugees around the world. Grants to NetHope, Mercy Corps, and the International Rescue Committee have helped those organizations offer food, water, housing, ..." [13] I also checked JSTOR and it is unmentioned in any peer-reviewed journal and the group returns no results in a search of Google Books. BlueSalix (talk) 19:55, 18 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - I really hate the scenarios in which there are 20 deletions painstakingly made before an article is hauled to AfD, which is the case here. Either it is notable or not, why gut and gut and gut and gut — and THEN ask for deletion? It makes no sense. THIS is what the article looked like before nominator peeled nearly 10K of content away... Carrite (talk) 17:25, 21 July 2016 (UTC) Addendum: Slight hyperbole here, I count 12 separate edits deleting material prior to nomination in this specific case. Carrite (talk) 17:54, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I am working from the premise that a consortium of NGOs that has been in existence since 2001 is probably notable. So let's start looking. Here is one item dealing substantially with the topic: Gisli Olafsson, "Why We Should Turn To Technology When Disaster Strikes," albeit by a NetHope employee and thus not fulfilling the independent status we need for publications to count towards GNG at AfD. Carrite (talk) 17:28, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
From the deleted footnotes, Nancy Gohring, "NGO Networks in Haiti Cause Problems for Local ISPs," PCWorld, Feb. 22, 2010, deals substantially enough with the consortium to count towards GNG, in my view. Carrite (talk) 17:33, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
From the deleted footnotes: "IT Lends a Helping Hand: An Interview with NetHope's Edward Granger-Happ," CIO-Insight, Jan. 28, 2005. You will need to click the PRINT button to see the very long, presumably reliable, independently-published interview. Blocked by a NOROBOTS script from Archive.org, unfortunately. 'CIO-Insight is part of Ziff-Davis and this absolutely counts towards GNG. Carrite (talk) 17:40, 21 July 2016 (UTC) Last edit: Carrite (talk) 17:42, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
From the footnotes showing: Todd Cohen, "Waves of Cash," Non-Profit Times, March 1, 2005. Includes three short paragraphs on NetHope, calling them "an alliance of 15 of the world’s largest relief organizations that serves as their international telecom department" — which not only goes towards GNG but demonstrates encyclopedic significance.

    • The reason I suggested looking at it again is because I don't think it meets deletion criteria. Keeping an AfD open when it's got to the point where improvements show it doesn't meet criteria isn't helpful, it wastes people's time looking it over and commenting. You may feel the nomination was fully legitimate (I would disagree, as a bit of WP:BEFORE research would have shown how the page could be improved without deletion) but I think it's clear that now it is not legitimate.

Comment: Journal present in Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=TXm7F6kAAAAJ&hl=uk Tunyk (talk) 09:12, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Yes, it is. GScholar strives to include every journal ever published, so it is not a selective database in the sense of WP:NJournals, so this fails criterion 1. In addition, the link you provide shows that articles from this journal are rarely cited (418 total, h-index of 7). This number of citations would be insufficient to make a single researcher notable, let alone a whole journal, so this fails criterion 2. Finally, there are no sources indicating that the journal has a significant history (the low citation counts already point to that), so this also fails criterion 3. --Randykitty (talk) 09:24, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: The journal is popular in Ukraine, unfortunately, Ukrainian scientists only recently started using Google Scholar, and the majority of citations is solely in paper form (in Ukraine few books that are publicly available online, and academics mass not place their articles in such services as Academia. edu or ResearchGate) so these figures due to consider it. However, as I said journal is the official international board and filed an application for inclusion in Scopus and Web of Science. Tunyk (talk) 09:39, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Index Copernicus in Ukraine is considered one of the most authoritative databases. To Journal it was it must meet several criteria. Tunyk (talk) 09:45, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • None of those are selective databases, so they don't contribute to notability. For a journal to meet criterion 3, you'd need thousands of citations and several articles with 100 or more citations. the information in Index Copernicus is contributed by the publishers of the journals themselves and it contains many predatory journals. It's "ICV" score is calculated in a weird manner and is basically meaningless. Most high-profile journals are not in IC and being listed in it is more of a negative than a positive, I fear. --Randykitty (talk) 09:59, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

None of those are independent, and therefore do not establish notability. I made a good faith Google search and found other articles by him, and passing mentions of him. But I was not able to find any significant coverage of him as a person in independent reliable sources. I will gladly change my recommendation from delete to keep if acceptable sources come to light.

  • Delete NN - Does not make the criteria for authors and teachers. every lecturer and author does not get a wiki page. Minor publications on the Bible along with promotional articles and promotional excerpts from the books is not notability. There is no significant outside coverage of him or citation of him. He does not seem to have any major notability in his employment history or any award. --Jayrav (talk) 13:06, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Notability requirements are ‘worthy of notice or note – that is, remarkable or significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded.’ Anyone who fails to appreciate that Nataf satisfies these criteria is simply unaware of his contribution - in print, on line, and in person. Nataf is a rare and noted voice in contemporary Orthodox Bible scholarship. Few others have the academic breadth and intellectual depth to engage meaningfully with classic Biblical Criticism and the modern Literary and Historical Schools of Bible Study. Nataf is without question ‘remarkable, significant, interesting, and unusual’ in his fieldAnthony K Manning (talk) 16:30, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Rabbi Nataf is a well-respected speaker and author, and his books have been well received. I only found out about him through those books. His series on the Bible received an approbation by Rabbi Aharon Lichtenstein - one of the most influential Modern Orthodox leaders of the last 30 years.

  • Delete I agree that the sources that are currently in the article cannot be considered independent of the subject. Opinion pieces he's written, mentions of books he's written, mentions of him in listings of lecturers, etc are not sufficient to show notability, and I have not been able to find adequate sources myself. I'd be happy to reconsider if better sources are provided. Meters (talk) 06:04, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I can't see any notability from the sources in the article or a search for others. The fact that he has written for a number of newspapers and given lectures aren't, in and of themselves, indications of notability. Ravendrop 02:06, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Markzy90: If the artist has a single or album that was on the national music chart, or if he has received a notable award please provide a reliable source to reference it. Wikipedia itself should not be used as a source.

Completely unsourced biography. No person of that name to be found on "Levi+Pante" Google Scholar or Google Books.

  • Comment: definitely real (Hebrew sources are easily available in the various databases of rabbinical literature—search "לוי פנטא‎"), but unusually obscure for a rabbi of his era; I'm not sure if he passes the notability criteria. הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) 18:56, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Also note that I am not sure from where our article's transliteration of his surname is sourced; the only source I could find about him in Latin script (a German-language journal) refers to him as "Levi Fanta". (Fernbach is not identical with him.) הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) 20:01, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: as not notable. He appears as a signatory (one of several dozen) on a historical document; a transcript exists of his gravestone and of two eulogies about him; he has a passing mention (one sentence) in a critical review of a book on the history of the Jews in Würzburg. (Were the article History of the Jews in Würzburg to be made, I suppose he could get the same there.) Not enough, I think, to confer notability to an 18th-century rabbi. The correct spelling, incidentally, is almost certainly Fanta, the name of a large Jewish family from Prague. הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) 20:56, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
