BLP with primary sources. Also, weak assertion of notability - a vet, couple of minor books (according to prev AfD). (Came across this following paid editing/suspicious sock/blocked sock accounts, so inferring an element of promotion combined with borderline notability, a combination that requires scrutiny at AfD.)

  • Delete. Fails WP:BIO. Preaky (talk) 01:27, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep  Nomination incorrectly implies that AfD is a forum for casting aspersions.  Nor is AfD a forum to ask if a topic is notable.  "Keep" as per previous AfD, whose closing IMO would have been better closed as a WP:NOQUORUM "keep".  Unscintillating (talk) 17:36, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as he's not satisfying any applicable notabilities and that's all that matters, especially since the article in fact emphasizes it. SwisterTwister talk 20:02, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - serial media commentator does not add up to notability. Very weak assertion of notability; article pretty much describes Lonsdale as a run-of-the-mill academic, and the refs back that up - all either self-published, non-independent or routine coverage. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 22:26, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • BTW, AfD is pretty much solely a forum to ask if a topic is notable. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 22:33, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Also, WP:NOQUORUM suggests three outcomes - relisting, close with no-consensus (which is what happened), or accept nominator's preference ("soft delete"). There is no such thing as a "no quorum keep". --Yeti Hunter (talk) 22:47, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • No, WP:NOQUORUM states, "The discussion may be closed at the closer's discretion and best judgement. Common options include, but are not limited to:", and then four bullet points follow, not three.  Unscintillating (talk) 23:44, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • ... being relist, no-consensus close, and two versions of delete (soft delete and accept nominator's preference) - very well, let's call it four. In any case NOQUORUM cannot be used to support a keep position.--Yeti Hunter (talk) 03:24, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
          • The logic of the reasoning is that "the closer's discretion and good judgement" don't allow a 'keep' result for an AfD? 

            As for the delete argument, what is an "assertion of notability".  Is that something like fame or importance, that Wikipedia WP:N doesn't consider as a key measure when determining notability?  As per WP:N, "Determining notability does not necessarily depend on things such as fame, importance, or popularity..."  Another issue with the argument is that "routine coverage" implies WP:GNG coverage.  I think that what Wikipedia cares about more than fame or importance, is reliability for our readers, including for obscure topics.  Unscintillating (talk) 01:33, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

            • Closing admin could indeed utilise judgement to keep in a NOQUORUM situation (rare though that is), however that would hold no weight in future AfDs which achieve greater participation. An "assertion of notability" is basically a statement within the article that indicates that the article subject would be presumed to meet the GNG - nothing necessarily to do with fame or popularity, though they can be indicators. The closest this article gets is the assertion that Lonsdale has frequently been interviewed by reliable(ish) media sources, which is an assertion of notability under WP:ENT. Lonsdale is not the subject of these sources, but rather a participant - they are therefore not independent of the subject, and cannot be used to establish notability. He fails WP:ENT and WP:PROF and, most importantly, WP:GNG. There's really not much more to it than that. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 01:54, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I found this yesterday as part of an Indian advertising campaign, and this one happened to be by one of the advertising-only accounts, and this article itself quite honestly contains nothing significant or convincing, everything listed is either simply name-mentions or clear trivial advertising such as the one source being his own business listing. This is quite honestly A7 material but, considering the damningly trivial "senior position at Bell", AfD may be best. SwisterTwister talk 23:12, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Was at AfD in May and I'll note myself all of the listed links there blatant advertising, not only because Indian publications are so damningly notorious for "pay-for news", but literally everything in those links are either "Information supplied by the company", "Information given today by the company, see their website for their services" and other blatancies; even the American links listed here, such as the Forbes, are then by a "special contributor" which obviously hints it was not an actual publication journalist, but instead a freelance PR person. Also, the other link, Entrepreneur is then seriously only a guide.

I commented about these concerns at the first AfD as it is, so they not only apply, but they're also supported and complimented by simply the sheer blatancy of advertisements, including of this nature, therefore the only solutions are to delete them as what they are: Blatant advertising. Also, to show the blatancy, the history itself shows not only both the Indian advertising-only accounts but IPs also, so it's quite clear this was an advertising campaign and it was to the company's own efforts and acknowledgments of it. Important to note, this has literally been speedied twice before within years of each other and it's clear this was the third attempt, thus simply advertising in each and every case. (WP:NOT policy still applies) SwisterTwister talk 23:12, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: This one should be notable. Indian media is notorious for paid-news, yes, I agree to that assessment but one must not generalise the issue. If we reject all Indian sources for India-related topics, then I don't think there would many India related articles left on Wikipedia. What is more reasonable approach is to evaluate sources case-by-case basis, which I did and believe this particular entity meets the required standard (I didn't link any refs in here because they are abundantly available on web. Please do a simple google search or try here. Mine assessment was more based on Hindi-language sources.) Anup [Talk] 22:11, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – Meets WP:CORPDEPTH per a review of available sources. North America1000 04:55, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment  The nomination provides no WP:DEL-REASON, so editors must guess as to the purpose for the nomination.  In the previous AfD, the nominator cited "notability", which would be WP:DEL8, although when sources were brought to the AfD the nominator asserted that they were "simply expected coverage", which is not policy-based terminology.  No mention was made then of "advertising".  Currently, there is no concern for notability.  The word "blatant" or forms of the word appear here five times.  If the problems are now "blatant", how do we interpret the absence at the last AfD of a concern for blatancy or any concern for "advertising"?  The nomination states that the concerns were stated at the previous AfD, but objectively I see no basis for this assertion.  Unscintillating (talk) 01:08, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment  Here are the sources currently cited in the article:
Unscintillating (talk) 01:08, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment and analysis - One thing that we've established here at AfD and any recent AfD for an Indian company closed as Delete, will show that these such publications are notorious for including company advertisements and paid ones at that, therefore both violating WP:SPAM and WP:NOT (both policies) and thus general ones such as WP:BASIC, WP:GNG or WP:N will not apply; first of all, the Forbes links here are not in fact staff-authored, and they explicitly say "contributor-generated" hence it's basically an indie blog hosted at Forbes itself. The other sources explicitly include interviews, company financials and other such listings, therefore also violating WP:SPAM and WP:NOT because Wikipedia is explicitly not a soapbox or a PR webhost and that's one of the Wikipedia Foundation Pillars, therefore any general notabilities would still not apply.
Next, these links, as if not blatant enough, literally contain such information such as If you look at the company website, it shows us....The company said today....The company and its clients....The company's spokesman and businessman says....The CEO's thoughts are....The company's services for its clients are....This information is from the company's website...The company's own records shows.... None of that is independent and we should not mistake it as such, especially since once again the history itself and the first AfD showed the blatancy of it, and how this was itself clearly a company-initiated advertisement, once again also violating policies WP:NOT.
All these Keep votes have stated are "You're not explaining why it should be deleted" or triviality such as "Sourcing exists" , but none of it actually acknowledges the concerns especially now considering policy WP:NOT, therefore we should not ignore it. As for the earlier comment of "Indian media is notorious for paid-news, yes", this once again emphasizes how we therefore cannot confide in Indian publications, regardless of anything or anyone, because that in itself then violates the Wikipedia foundation of WP:SPAM which explicitly states "Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising", all of the links in that Search still only consists of PR, either blatantly stated as such or covertly stated. As it is, WP:Deletion policy allows such cases since that itself is also founded in policies about article deletion. SwisterTwister talk 02:28, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question  What's with the shifting indent for this post?  The same thing happened in the nomination.  Unscintillating (talk) 05:53, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question  If WP:SPAM says that it is a content guideline, why does the post say that it is a "policy" and a "Wikipedia foundation"?  Unscintillating (talk) 05:53, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question  I don't see anyone raising an issue of notability in this AfD, so why does this post challenge the people saying "sourcing exists"?  Regarding the 761 Hindi sources, the post says, "all of the links in that Search...consists of PR, either blatantly stated as such or covertly stated"  I will assume that a "blatant press release" is the same thing as a "normal press release"?  Besides the question of how someone translated 761 Hindi sources, and was able to confirm "covert press releases" for the links that were not "normal press releases", the whole exercise is irrelevant without a notability concern.  So does this suggest that an as yet unstated notability concern will be forthcoming?  Unscintillating (talk) 05:53, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question  The previous AfD said nothing about advertising or WP:NOT issues, so why does this post discover "the first AfD showed...clearly a company-initiated advertisement...also violating policies WP:NOT"?  Unscintillating (talk) 05:53, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Numerous sources available to satisfy WP:GNG, and AFD is not cleanup so the current state of the article, contrary to SwisterTwister's claims, is irrelevant. Smartyllama (talk) 21:48, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's that the publications listed are notoriously blatant for republishing company advertising and any Indian company AfD will show this, therefpre it's blatant advertising and we're hosting it if it's accepted. Also, this is violating policy WP:NOT itself because it's an advertising page, WP:GNG is a guideline, unlike WP:NOT which is a policy that we use everyday. SwisterTwister talk 23:54, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at the claim of "any Indian company AfD will show" "that the publications listed are notoriously blatant for republishing company advertising", let's look at the previous AfD.  By the previous post's definition, this previous AfD satisfies "any Indian company AfD".  This previous AfD does not include the words "WP:NOT", "blatant", and "advertising".  As the editor who made the previous post was a participant in the previous AfD, one can not suppose that the previous AfD was a statistical fluke.  Thus the claim is falsified.  Unscintillating (talk) 00:20, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This particular firm is actually notable. It is however interesting that the article is written exactly in the cookie-cutter style of e-commerce firms. I am unable to tell if this is a case of imitation of other WP articles under the false but understandable assumption this is what we want, or undeclared paid editing, or something in between. But this one is worth fixing. About half the article mentioned above are mere mentions, and some are from sources prone to promotionalism , but the overall impression I get is that they are sufficient to support notability.

Not an expert at Prof, but per WP:Prof "Measures of citability such as the h-index, g-index, etc., are of limited usefulness in evaluating whether Criterion 1 is satisfied", so can you expand? Article currently has one ref, so fails WP:GNG. Taking into account the ref is for CoMeD rather than this BLP, I consider it counts towards the notability of CoMeD, which is preferable to this but probably also not notable.

None. To clarify, I came here via checking on sock block evasion (just blocked) /COI/suspicious accounts. Two independent editors taking to AfD at the same time is quite persuasive that this is in no way some conspiracy?!

  • Delete I am not convinced he was impactful enough in chemistry to pass Academic Criteria 1. Chemistry as an applied science has a high citation level, and I have not seen evidence his level of citation was high enough to count as impactful.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:05, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Because the subject is a proponent of the fringe anti-vaccine movement, I feel that the citation counts are not an appropriate indication of the notability under the WP:ACADEMIC guideline, which is intended to assess an individual's mainstream scholarly impact. Many of the papers listed on Google scholar appear to be WP:FRINGE research, with lots of self-citations, and low quality open-access echo chamber citations. Google scholar is a notoriously unreliable indicator of notability of academics for those at the fringes. The most over-the-top example I know of is Florentin Smarandache.

  • Delete, per Sławomir Biały. In WP:FRINGE cases one should not rely on raw citability data as many citations returned by GScholar are to fringe sources that do not pass WP:RS.

Fails to meet the notability requirements for biographies as there is no significant coverage of the individual in RS. The dealstreetasia source is probably the best, but it is an interview about his company which doesn't establish his notability. The FT blog is about a press release he put out stating he would buy De La Rue, which they were not complimentary about... He obviously doesn't meet WP:NAUTHOR either. A search for other sources turned up coverage of a housing development in a local newspaper which again doesn't establish his notability. SmartSE (talk) 22:05, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate of List of neighborhoods in Dallas which I am editing. This particular list of districts and neighborhoods is both incomplete and entirely duplicative of the article List of neighborhoods in Dallas. Further, districts and neighborhoods are essentially the same in Dallas, some simply are called "districts" because of their location or because they are historic. Most commonly, a few entertainment districts such as Bishop Arts contain the word District as well as a couple areas downtown, but all are essentially neighborhoods. The historic districts also contain this name, and this article does nothing to break down the difference between the two. However, editing isn't necessary and deletion is appropriate because it is a duplicate of the previously cited article. VinceLeibowitz (talk) 16:40, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pseudo-scientific crap and medical quackery backed by fringe sources. Fails WP:PROFRINGE. See also WP:Complete bollocks. Ad Orientem (talk) 16:27, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawing nomination Bowing to clear consensus. That said we need to keep a close eye on the article to prevent the return of the naked PROFRINGE material that was excised. I am not seeing much left, but apparently there is a belief that it can be salvaged and turned into an encyclopedic article. -Ad Orientem (talk) 01:51, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and consider a merge to Humic acid. The fact that this article currently says more about about some harms from industrial agriculture practices doesn't mean that the chemical class is non-notable/not worthy of an article. WP:Deletion is not clean up. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:27, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I noticed the article was originally created as a redirect to Humic Acid and briefly considered just doing a WP:DBR since pretty much anything worth discussing in the article was pure bunk. The problem is that I am seeing similar problems at Humic acid. And no we don't keep articles because they discuss alleged issues with industrial agriculture, when in fact it is just a promotion of pseudo-scientific BS. -Ad Orientem (talk)
  • comment - I removed about 90% of the article which was irrelevant, misleading, or unsourced. Staszek Lem (talk) 19:33, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Appreciate the mass redaction. I noticed that it was at one time a redirect to Humic acid. But I am concerned that article may have similar issues. I really think we need someone with a certain degree of expertise to have a look before we consider any kind of merge or redirect. -Ad Orientem (talk) 20:16, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Humic acid is in considerably better shape and there is no reason why Fulvic acid could not also be brought to the same standard. Boghog (talk) 21:03, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The topic gets over 36,000 hits on GScholar and browsing the first two pages of hits shows quite a few articles where this is treated in depth. GBooks also nets about 22,000 hits. This looks like a highly notable mainstream topic in soil chemistry. Eliminating undue fringe stuff is a matter of editing, not deletion--thanks go to Staszek Lem for cleaning this up. --Mark viking (talk) 19:44, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep While I agree that the article was poorly sourced and biased, I notice that it was entirely created from the ground up today by a new editor. It looks to me like it was a sincere newbie effort. I have no idea how widely used or notable "Fulvic Acid" is as a nutritional supplement. Maybe this could be a topic for an article in itself, if done to Wiki standards. I left a note at the new user's talk page, encouraging him/her to keep trying and not take this personally.

  • Keep as I recall from long ago Environmental Chemistry lectures, humic and fulvic acids are major components of soil, and are among the key organic building blocks used by plants in order to grow. Any claimed medical benefits in humans are to my knowledge entirely fictitious - these are nutrients for plants, not people - and certainly such quackery should not be allowed on Wikipedia, but this is no reason to delete the article, as this family of compounds are both notable and have many reliable sources which an improved article could draw from. That said, I'm not sure there is really enough content here to justify a fork from the much better written page about humic acid, as they are really just sub categories of a larger group of organic acids found in soil, so this page could probably be merged and made a redirect again if no one can be bothered improving it. Meodipt (talk) 23:48, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep now that it's less of a coatrack, it seems like a decent base on which to build. — soupvector (talk) 13:43, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WP:BLP of a musician, sourced entirely to online music stores and downloading or streaming sites and social networking platforms, with zero evidence of reliable source coverage shown at all. And the article doesn't really make any strong claim of notability per WP:NMUSIC either: as written, this just states that he exists and has released music, the end. As always, musicians are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist; RS coverage supporting a claim of notability that passes NMUSIC is required for an article to become earned.

This seems to be a slang term with limited usage. Everything said in this article that isn't just defining the term has been stated in both the Gender disparity in computing and Sexism in the technology industry articles, rendering this article redundant. I propose we delete this article and redirect to Gender_disparity_in_computing#Fraternity-like_startup_environments or Sexism_in_the_technology_industry#Macho_culture as they contain the same information. TheDracologist (talk) 20:02, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This term appeared in mainstream press (The Atlantic) three years ago. That is not a NEO, the article is sourced to demonstrate that it is a term of current and general use. It may be a slang term, but use by CNN is now far from "limited usage".
It is simply untrue to claim that the other two articles "have stated everything in this article". Sure, there is overlap, but the extent of discussion on 'brogrammer' is one sentence in Gdic. Nor do the sources overlap. Andy Dingley (talk) 00:48, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I wish to point out that there was no consensus last time. It also seems that there is no usage in the last two years. The term may have been used in the article, but the article was not about the term itself, but rather macho culture in computing. I think expanding one of the sections I pointed to earlier would be more appropriate than giving this word its own article. TheDracologist (talk) 05:33, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I forgot to mention this earlier, but what I meant when I said that everything in this article was covered in those articles wasn't that it was all right where the word "Brogrammer" was mentioned, but that throughout each of the articles, the points in this article are brought up in various places. If you read through the articles, you will see the parts about women getting fewer BS degrees in Computer Science, the amount of women citing workplace culture as a reason for changing careers away from computing careers, and macho culture in computing.

  • Keep: No different than last time really. Zero Serenity (talk - contributions) 09:35, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Last time the decision was not "keep" but rather "no consensus", so I don't understand how the last nomination would be an argument either way. Also, many of the people who said keep argued that it could improve, which it hasn't. Finally, the subject of the article seems to be getting less relevant over time, which might bring WP:SUSTAINED into play. TheDracologist (talk) 18:44, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Tiny little note: I know "I haven't heard of it" isn't a good reason for deletion and this is the internet, so there's no reason you should believe me on what I say I am, but I feel like I should bring this up anyway. As a woman majoring in computer science, I would think I would have heard of this term before. Take this as you will. TheDracologist (talk) 19:05, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This does not appear to be a notable business. References are small-town paper puff peices or are non-independent; no signficant news coverage. The only contributors of article content are single purpose accounts, one is Spinutech (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), so this appears to be essentially an "autobiography" (self-promotional conflict of interest). Also, the article was created using the Articles for Creation process, but was accepted and moved into article space by the article's creator, inappropriately bypassing the normal review process of AFC.

De-prodded with following reason: "Goa state is known for its beaches, so its important to include all beaches in wiki so that tourists can explore them." That's not a valid rationale for inclusion. There is nothing to show that this particular beach is notable, and searches did not turn up anything to alter that opinion. Onel5969 TT me 12:11, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as I concur, and I saw this when it happened, a beach is quite rarely convincing for its own article, regardless of whether it's known or not, simply because there's nothing to suggest an independent article. SwisterTwister talk 17:45, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – Meets WP:GNG and WP:GEOLAND per a review of available sources, one of the core bases of topic notability. The beach has received scholarly coverage and coverage regarding its salt water baths and as a tourist destination. Another option, and alternative to deletion, is to merge to Siridao, which would make the merge target article more accurate and comprehensive. See some source examples below.

  • Keep, per Northamerica1000, satisfies WP:GEOLAND. Just to quibble a bit with the above, GEOLAND does not grant inherent notability to named natural features, it only suggests an article is appropriate for inclusion provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist (this is true for this article). It also suggests that minor features should be considered for inclusion in an article about regional geography rather than a standalone article. A merger to Siridao would probably be the best ultimate outcome for a minor feature such as this, but that could be handled by bold editing or discussion at the article, it's not something that needs to be mandated here.

Keep. No part in the content is advertising, promotion or spam. The content is fact-based and supported by ample number of citations. Many acts of the person in different fields are notable, and the person continues to be an influencer, resulting in the person being termed as notable. The article and most of the sections in the article has been in Wikipedia since 5 years. Two more articles in Wikipedia, including an important article of a political party in India, link to the person in this article. The article has been recently updated with more citations. — Townblight (talk) 22:30, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. An ambassador is the official represent of one nation to another - It's hard for me to see a better argument for eligibility than that! Oleryhlolsson (talk) 12:52, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, there is no such thing as automatic notability simply because an individual is an ambassador - needs to be supported evidence that the individual is notable. There is plenty of precedence for the deletion of articles on ambassadors where there is no evidence of notability. Dan arndt (talk) 14:32, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Personally I fully disagree - I see no reason for not having articles on ambassadors! Oleryhlolsson (talk) 14:40, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
this is a WP:ILIKEIT kind of reasoning with zero demonstration of how WP:BIO is met. LibStar (talk) 14:46, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly Oleryhlolsson, if there was such thing as inherent notability of ambassadors, then none of the articles on ambassadors would be deleted, which is not the case. Secondly there have been at least two proposals, that I am aware of, at WP:BIO to give ambassadors inherent notability. Both of which have failed. So unless you can provide evidence that there is a WP policy that supports your view, the article fails to establish notability. Dan arndt (talk) 14:49, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete absolutely zero inherent notability. A simple gnews and gbooks search of his name (without middle name) reveals little coverage. LibStar (talk) 14:52, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no notability. @Oleryhlolsson: I have no doubt that you were caught off guard by the rejeciton of this article. At first, I also thought an Ambassador must the WP:NOTABLE, this was true even though I was fully aware that in the real world this is a job often given to campaign donors and non-notable career diplomats. Many Ambassadors are notable, but we establish that by finding sources to pass WP:GNG. Some positions (membership in a provincial legislature, for example) confer notability on all incumbents.

Been here for a long time, tagged for a long time--I decided against the speedy since it's not a very new article, but the article lacks references, and the internetz, while providing videos and forum posts, did not show me any good sources during a quick search. Note: check history for the contributions of a longtime sock (Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Lpkids2006)--there may be some helpful material in there, though I doubt it.

  • Keep The subject is quite notable/notorious in the Philippines. Needs sourcing, but that's a WP:V problem, not notability.-- OBSIDIAN†SOUL 04:11, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Obsidian Soul, and E.M.Gregory, all y'all point at a relative wealth of references from the Mindanao Examiner. It's worth pointing out this isn't much of a newspaper--in fact, it's more a charity project than a paper, it seems. And even if it were, it's still very much a local paper, and that is not so helpful for the purpose of notability since one can assume they'd write up most any church in the area. Drmies (talk) 04:21, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not sure why its mostly Mindanao Examiner that's showing up on Google. Anyway , there are also books. I quote three below. Note how they all characterize it as "prominent", "influential", "highly visible", etc.
  • Whither the Philippines in the 21st Century? :"Two prominent charismatic groups - the Jesus is Lord Fellowship and the Jesus Miracle Crusade - have both gained prominence over the years due to their growing resources and number of followers... The Jesus Miracle Crusade, on the other hand, is one of the largest apostolic churches based in the Philippines. Wilde Almeda, an evangelist pastor, and his wife, Lina Almeda, also a pastor, founded the group. Not new to political campaigning, Almeda's group is also wooed by politicians for support during elections. It is present in 45 provinces and has chapters in the United States and China. The crusade gained prominence in 2000, when it sent representatives to preach the word of God to Abu Sayyaf, an armed Muslim rebel group that gained prominence by kidnapping 21 foreigners in Basilan, an island in Southern Philippines."
  • Christianity in Southeast Asia: "In the second place, the independent churches, by and large, established and developing in the latter part of the 20the century, tend to place the predominant emphasis on the supernatural, including works of miraculous healing, deliverance, conviction of sin, conversion and empowerment consistent with waves of "charismatic" spiritualism that has moved through churches around the world in this period. Thus, for example, the Jesus Miracle Crusade International Ministry (JMCIM) based in Quezon City, one of the largest and fastest-growing independent churchs in the Philippines, focuses its ministry (as its name suggests) chiefly on miraculous healing, both from physical disease and from spiritual malaises manifesting themselves as substance abuse, marital, and familial problems and so on. With services taking the form of huge rallies (often held in a stadium or field), featuring testimonies from people who have received miraculous healing, and with its own radio programme, the Jesus Miracle Crusade has been able to attract millions of adherents throughout the Philippines."
  • Exporting the American Gospel: Global Christian Fundamentalism: "Another highly visible group in the Philippines is Wilde Almeda's Jesus Miracle Crusade International Ministry, which holds anti-communist rallies throughout the country in the name of Christ. Claiming millions of followers throughout the Philippines, Almeda regularly packs in people in a large stadium in Manila. A huge banner flanking the stage reads: "Communism is Satanism", and another refers to the international embrace of Almeda's organization and its alliance with Jubilee Cruades. A charismatic group that believes in faith healing and speaking in tongues, the Jesus Miracle Crusade has cadres of young volunteers who live, pray, and work together. It appears to be a very patriarchal, authoritarian community where believes are required to fast for long periods of time."
They are usually mentioned prominently along with other large Philippine independent Christian groups, like Jesus is Lord Church, Members Church of God International, and Iglesia ni Cristo. Most of them are notorious for their political clout (due to their tendency to vote unanimously for any candidate chosen by their leaders), and for their cult-like behaviors. This article from Abante Online (a local language newspaper) for example, shows a presidential candidate, Senator Chiz Escudero trying to woo a JMCIM rally. Almeda's capture and detainment by the Abu Sayyaf was also widely covered in both local and international news sources. To be honest, I don't care much whether the article gets deleted. But I can attest to their notability.-- OBSIDIAN†SOUL 08:55, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:NCORP, WP:TOOSOON (company is only 2 years old), and WP:advert (references are mostly advertisements for the products, not reviews or awards). The one award THAT establish any sort of notability is from Playboy.com. I think a company in the spirits industry needs more independent coverage than what is currently available in order to meet WP:GNG and every other policy cited above.

Repeating previous arguments + Angus's analysis with WP:NPASR.

ANN/video game search results:

1) Crayon Kingdom (Cloud - main)

2) Doremi (Ms Seki - supporting)

3) Digimon: Data Squad (Kudamon - supporting)

4) Fafner (Yoko Hazama - supporting)

5) Setsuka (Soulcalibur series - main supporting)

Relisting once again this is a renomination. Subject only has Cloud as her main role; rest are supporting. Subject has yet to garner enough main, significant roles to assert her notability. An article should either be kept or deleted - there is no in between. It is important to reach a proper consensus in AFDs. --Sk8erPrince (talk) 03:22, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • procedural speedy keep Once again this is a renomination of an afd that has been closed for one day as no consensus. Given that the nominator continues to relist such afd's despite objections as well as being quite forceful with demands that we must have a consensus rather than allow time for improvement, I struggle to assume good faith with such a listing. However as the nominator got his way on one article and had it deleted after displaying obvious bias towards his desired outcome this appears to be validating his approach. A line needs to be drawn to prevent these trivial relistings and the demands of an editor who has continues to show poor judgement. The continued lack of respect for completed procedure is not helpful to the A&M project or Wikipedia in general. Sufficient time should be allowed to pass before a new afd and a day, or even a month is not really sufficient. Edit: The guideline does not prohibit relisting and even suggests it, but this is up for interpretation, after all it was already relisted twice within the previous afd and therefore ran for several weeks. Either way, the justification for nomination is because the nominator is not happy with the outcome, which as a reason for renomination is not a convincing one.

  • Keep: Should be kept as standalone piece. Target article is a GA and already bulky -- adding these contents there may make the navigation if not impossible, definitely pretty much difficult. Plus, it meets WP:NALBUM#1. In addition to cited sources, here are few more: Music review by IBT, coverage dedicated to songs by HT, another by TOI. Anup [Talk] 23:08, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The soundtrack article has 2 paragraphs and 1 list of 7 songs. The 1st para is already present in the main article and 2nd para is of an unsourced review and when the success party was celebrated (how encyclopedic!). So how will deleting this and moving a table of 7 songs make the original article bulky and un-navigatable? Also, the new soundtrack article was created post the GA review. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 06:24, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You're right. I overestimated the bulky nature (readable prose size of target article is only 31kb, and article to be merged is about 1kb; together less than 40kb). Also, there is very little scope for expansion (even in that case there will be about 20-25kb left for such expansion). Thanks for following up. Redirect to S/O Satyamurthy#Soundtrack.

I agree the quotation should be trimmed significantly and the page is not "well-written".

Poovaipalayam is a village near Vedasandur in Tamil Nadu (source). It is so small that it does not figure in the 2001 census; the demographics section is a remnant of the copy/paste edit that created this article. There are many villages in the state, and I don't believe this one is notable enough. The source I listed above is one of only three I could find (see here); even then, the village is only briefly mentioned among many others. — Sunnya343✈ (háblame • my work) 18:47, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep There are many villages all over the world, and we keep articles on them if they can be shown to exist even if they have a much smaller population than 700. What is so special about Tamil Nadu that we should treat villages there any differently? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 20:55, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, the 700 figure appears to be unsourced, originating in the statement "population: approx. 700 in 2009" by the creator of the article. Also, I suggest you read WP:GNG and other parts of that guideline. — Sunnya343✈ (háblame • my work) 21:31, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable routine event. Does not meet any obvious criteria in Wikipedia:Notability (events) such as international coverage or wider impact beyond the recurring garden show itself. Coverage is clearly pre-planned and recurring, i.e. WP:ROUTINE.

  • sources abound, although the peak for this sort of even was in the late 20th century.

Recreated article which was previously deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brutality (band). This latest version has more content than the one which was deleted, but it still has not been established how this band satisfies WP:BAND. Article has been tagged with {{one source}} since January 2013 and the only source cited is a trivial one which does nothing to establish the band's notability for a stand-alone article. I've tried finding better sources, but have not had much luck. I also asked about the band at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Metal/Archives/2016/August#Brutality (band), but got no response. Article was recreated by the same editor who created the version which was deleted according to the admin who closed the first AfD and it was recreated only about two months after the first AfD was closed in 2006. Ten years and only a single trivial source seems to indicate that this band simply has not received the significant coverage needed for a stand-alone article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:23, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This might be a subject for discussion here, but I believe the band meets WP:BAND specifically criteria #5: Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable). They have had multiple albums released on Nuclear Blast, which I think would be considered an "important indie label" (having signed Slayer, Opeth and Fear Factory for example). The article however does need a lot more sourcing. RickinBaltimore (talk) 14:31, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This band shows NO evidence of notability whatsoever. There are no references in this article. That should say enough. In my opinion, there should be a banning or blacklisting of this band during the third nomination for spamming Wikipedia. Scorpion293 (talk) 02:59, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete After reviewing their discography [30], I'm not convinced that WP:BAND criteria #5 applies. Otherwise, they have the coverage in WP:RS that one would expect for a local or regional niche band. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 01:03, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep In addition to the article in Ebony mentioned above, she has also been covered in event listings and such in places such as Westchester Magazine and a longish profile in Saint Thomas Source [31].

  • Delete as here's the analysis of everything here, the one keep comment is not fully confident and acknowledges the fact this would need a restart, the Keep vote above lists only local event listings and triviality, none of which are actually substantial, hence it's not amounting to actual notability. I have found nothing better and it's clear what's only available here is listings hence the "significant sources" above are not in fact so, and it's going to be clear when anything says "Local listing for a local event". SwisterTwister talk 07:27, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - searches did not turn up any significant, in-depth coverage from reliable sources. The Ebony article mentioned above, is the briefest of mentions (she's one of several artists in a list of "also appearing"), and the Westchester piece is a pr piece.

The result was keep. There are some difficulties in determining notability because of a language barrier in sources cited in the German version of the article. The number of sources and the fact that they appear to be reliable sources turns the discussion toward a conclusion of "keep." Joyous! | Talk 15:35, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. " It was deprodded by User:Reesorville with no rationale (despite the fact that I explicitly asked for one in the PROD), behavior I'd usually associate with spammer accounts. In either case, this fails GNG as outlined above, and also as I discussed in my Signpost Op-Ed, this is a good example of Yellow-Pages like company spam.

I didn't know I was supposed to reply at this page. I wrote in the talk section of the page, because I don't know where else to write. I am not familiar with Wikipedia's rules. Gloria.tv has a large daily following and it already has wikipedia articles on it in both German and Italian, that are linked to the article. Reesorville (talk) 08:19, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I didn't see your talk page message. I did ask in the prod to be WP:ECHOed, and since you didn't notify me of your reply, I never saw it. Since you are not familiar with rules, you should check the ones I listed above and in the prod, namely WP:NCOMPANY. Also, given the article is unreferenced, you need to show sources supporting your claims about the website's popularity. See WP:V, WP:CITE. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:01, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I just listed a source from the website itself with some statistics. In terms of notability though, I recommend that you look at the German page on wikipedia for gloria.tv and note all the mentions of the website in various articles in the German media.

Just a note that sources do not have to be in English to qualify toward establishing notability. At WP:GNG it states, "Sources do not have to be available online or written in English". North America1000 08:09, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I haven't read all the references in the German article - and some are dead links - but these are WP:RS and are specifically about gloria.tv, which IMO clearly passes WP:GNG. The quotes are from the headlines or opening paragraphs.
  1. Fundamentalistisches Portal "gloria.tv" - Süddeutsche Zeitung (Germany)
  2. Jetzt ermittelt die Bündner Kantonspolizei wegen gloria.tv - Die Südostschweiz (Switzerland)
  3. Kath.net, kreuz.net und gloria.tv haben sehr klare Vorstellungen davon, was katholisch ist - Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (Germany)
  4. Schweiz: Gloria.tv Mitarbeiter vom Bischof entlassen - Vatican Radio (The Vatican)
And that's just for starters, there are other major news organisations cited in the German article. Narky Blert (talk) 00:30, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen articles about the website in major English-language press, although it can be found mentioned in the 'Catholic blogosphere'. In addition to the German-language press, it has also had statements regarding it from various bishops' conferences, I think. I am not completely familiar with the controversy surrounding the site, but it is written in detail on the german page (I just used the online translator to try to figure out what it said). Part of the controversy seems to be something about the site having used Nazi imagery in reference to the German bishops at some point which ran afoul of laws in certain countries, which in turn brought in the police and condemnation from various corners.

Delete and Salt please given the past 2 A7 deletions and the sheer fact this was then restarted immediately after these said deletions, and if it wasn't for the damning fact this has existed since then, it would've likely been restarted again, therefore we need to take care and acknowledge what will of course imaginably happen if it's deleted again. It's also not helping the fact these news publications cannot be taken seriously given their "pay-for" news methods, and the few links here and then in my own searches show this since it's all simply advertising.

As an interesting note, this was in fact being speedied again before being removed. To then state the obvious, the one account involved with this was an advertising-only account, so there's all in all literally nothing convincing here. SwisterTwister talk 05:46, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: The references in the article are predominantly start-up coverage of this firm among others, to which could be added this 2009 interview with the founder. Later references in the article relate to the eMart Solutions parent, possibly due to focus shifting to white-labelling services [33], also reflected in recent coverage of the parent [34]. I don't think that is sufficient for notability of the eMart Solutions parent and certainly doesn't inherit back to their retail service, which I think fails to demonstrate encyclopaedic notability.

Spam from the artists vanity label. He is not notable. No major awards, no good charting. No gold records. He lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Looking at some sources starting at #1:

Mainly Piano. Personal site of Kathy Parsons
Improvijazzation Nation. Personal site of Dick Metcalf
Global Music Awards are an award farm, not a major awards. (Silver medal does not mean 2nd).
Solo Piano is a single "radio station". their awards are not major
HMMA is not a major award.
ZoneMusicReporter are not good charts. There awards are not major
Just Plain Folks Music Awards are not a major award.
MusicWatch. Personal site of John M. Peters
"Midwest Book Review is an organization committed to promoting literacy, library usage, and small press publishing".
Smooth Jazz Therapy. typepad weblog

Keep: If we are going to have CIA activities by country articles allowable for the likes of Syria and Iraq, then the principle of having such county specific articles is established. So it will be down to individual article content to decide if an article is deserving for a particular country. Given the closeness to both Syria and Iraq, as well as Iran, and the fact that it shared a Cold War border with the Soviet Union and Iron Curtain countries, I think CIA activity in Turkey is likely to be both substantial and notable. I have already added some additional content, and there is likely to be much more content that could be added to this article. For example, the CIA connection to ARIT was always a well known open secret, and a google search turns up some sources on this. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 16:07, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe that all of the "CIA activities in..." articles should be deleted—in fact, I'm a major contributor to two of the more notable ones, CIA activities in Iraq and CIA activities in Syria—but CIA activities in Brazil (while a closer call than some of the other CIA articles I'm submitting for deletion) seems to fail WP:GNG. The actions of the Johnson administration—including the U.S. embassy, Navy, and CIA—immediately prior to the 1964 Brazilian coup d'état are already covered (with nearly identical prose) in that article. For that reason I support a redirect.TheTimesAreAChanging (talk) 23:19, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep' Frankly, this mass deletion of half a dozen CIA related articles feels a little aggressive. I admit to not knowing much about CIA activities, but this article clearly shows that there was significant discussion of CIA activity in Honduras in the late 20th century.

  • Weak keep or Merge - I think that the fact that so many country's activities have their own page, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS really seems to apply here.

Neither card games nor fictional characters are readily covered by the speedy system; I'm chary of using A11 ("obviously invented") as lack of Google hits could conceivably be a language problem. I suggested proposed deletion to Narutolovehinata5 as these seem uncontroversial candidates for deletion, unless the original creator can improve them to show notability. Espresso Addict (talk) 02:33, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
To be frank I'm usually wary of using proposed deletion for the simple reason that all it takes to oppose it is the removal of the proposed deletion tag. From experience, about 80% of the time I tagged an article for PROD the article the article creator removes it, almost always without explanation. Which is fine and perfectly acceptable under the proposed deletion policy, but it also means in the end such articles would usually end up being AFD'd anyway. Better to just skip the PROD step and go straight to AFD, at least actual discussion is possible. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:38, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blatant advertisement with only the advertised information about where there is to say about the company and its services, and the sources honestly themselves are not actually significant, let alone substance, as they hint at republished company PR, and my own searches are finding this exactly. This was started last year by an apparent advertising-only account and there's literally been suggesting otherwise better and with the sources simply being republished company information, that's self-explanatory, especially since the article literally cares to start with mentioning its clients. Examining the history finds the company and employees clearly know this article exists because see how the advert tag was added in September but was immediately removed by "Andrew.lee.apadmi" so it's worse that it's the newest contribution by that and the other IPs only focusing with this one advertisement.

Remain - Georgia are officially a high performance union, as classified by World Rugby, WP:NRU desperately needs and update as four new nations are now also HPU. An appearance for Georgia at first team level should be sufficient for a player to be notable, regardless of competition. I have been trying to get this criteria updated but don't know who it is I need to go through so have left a comment on the page in hope. To conclude, if the WP:NRU criteria had been revised in the last 5 years there would be no question of this players notability. So, this page should remain.--BulgarianBoy21 (talk) 20:31, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Hi BulgarianBoy21 could you please give a source for the classification of Georgia as a high performance union by the World rugby i couldn't find the reference anywhere. The following is an extract from the valid regulations on the world rugby web site.
“High Performance Union” means a Union designated as such by the Council and/or the CEO. As at 24 May 2011 the Unions of the following countries are High Performance Unions: Argentina, Australia, Canada, England, Fiji, France, Ireland, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Romania, Samoa, Scotland, South Africa, Tonga, United States and Wales.
There is evidence that there are 3 more nations who have entered the "high performance union" as this extract comes from the IRB investment statement suggests
"The main objectives of World Rugby’s elite Game investment are to maintain and improve standards of men’s 15s at both Tier One (the 10 Six Nations/Rugby Championship Unions) and Tier Two (the other 10 RWC qualified Unions)"
the trouble is that I can't find proof of which nations have entered. If you can find it I would be happy to support an immediate change in the WP:NRU criteria. I agree that it is not normal that the players from the number 12 nation in the world are considered less notable than those from the N° 17 (USA) N°15 (Tonga) N°14 (Samoa) N°16 (Romania) N° 18 (Canada). It would need to be IMHO a primary source from the IRB. I've just spent 30 minutes looking and couldn't find it. Good luck! Domdeparis (talk) 09:11, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The following link infers in several places that all tier two RWC 2015 nations are high performance unions. But aside from inference they also reference the Tbilisi Cup as being a 'High performance competition'. This is both hosted and competed in by Georgia as it has been since 2013. http://www.rugbyworldcup.com/news/90002?lang=en

I agree that World Rugby have not done a great job making it abundantly clear that several unions have been upgraded to HPU, however I would also like to reference that earlier this year Georgia were welcomed onto the World Rugby council. This is something other unions such as Fiji, Samoa or Tonga have not achieved, indicating Georgia's standing in the world game and hence their players notability. http://www.worldrugby.org/news/158700?lang=en http://www.worldrugby.org/organisation/structure/council?lang=en

This link also references Tier 2 as being high performance. http://www.worldrugby.org/development/development-investment?lang=en

If you follow the link on this page it can be seen that it clearly denotes the fact that High performance tier two sides are defined by the 10 RWC qualified nations outside the Rugby Championship and Six Nations. This can be found under the high performance heading, two pages from the end. This is stated in both the text and the table of investments. http://www.worldrugby.org/documents/high-performance?lang=en

I think that last link in particular should be sufficient to justify Georgia's position as a HPU, especially when it is considered that they have already qualified for RWC 2019. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BulgarianBoy21 (talk • contribs) 14:01, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Close but no cigar what we need is a list of tiers 2 unions and everything is in place to ask for a change in WP:NRU criteria. I'll keep looking too Domdeparis (talk) 14:20, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I've pulled a quote from that last link
"High Performance

The main objectives of World Rugby’s elite Game investment are to maintain and improve standards of men’s 15s at both Tier One (the 10 Six Nations/Rugby Championship Unions) and Tier Two (the other 10 RWC qualified Unions)" I could provide a link to proof of Georgia having competed in RWC 2015, but there's really no need. There can be no doubt that Georgia, as a side who have qualified for the RWC every time from 2003-2019, classify as one of 'the other 10 RWC qualified unions'. Especially given that the document is dated 2015, meaning it could either be referring to RWC 2015 or 2019, but because they qualified for both it really doesn't matter. So it can surely be confirmed they are both tier 2 and one of 'the other 10 RWC qualified Unions'.

On the same page of this document it refers to World Rugby's 'High Performance Tier Two Unions (10) Investment'. The bracketed 10 here refers to the aforementioned 'other 10 RWC qualified nations '. This both clarifies Georgia's position as tier two and high performance. Thus their player notability is assured. What do you think Domdeparis? -- BulgarianBoy21 (talk) 15:59, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
that sounds good to me. What I'll do is post a comment on the talk page of WP:NRU and see if there are any objections and then update the definition of High performance unions. Domdeparis (talk) 17:10, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable actress, The article's been unsourced since its creation (2007) and although there's mentions on Google there's nothing substantial, fails GNG, –Davey2010Talk 15:35, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - She is fairly notable I think; most people in the UK will have seen her in something on Television (or theatre). The page is completely unsourced but I'm happy to remedy that myself in a few weeks when I have some spare time. Could the deletion be postponed for like a month? Then if the consensus was still that the article should be deleted even after I'd referenced it, I won't complain.

  • I think I've heard of her too but but just because we've heard of her doesn't mean she gets granted an article, Nope sorry - I had postponed an AFD before only for that editor to not bother doing sod all so I don't postpone these anymore, The AFD will be up for a week so you have plenty of time but as I say I can't find anything so I doubt you will either, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 16:27, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete unsourced BLP without prejudice to recreation with sources. Happy to change to keep if properly sourced. --Andreas Philopater (talk) 00:52, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete nothing appraoching 3rd party reliable source coverage. At one time it seemed like Wikipedia had decided to have an article on everyone who had ever appeared in a film, but through multiple AfDs we have set the threshold above that, and Bailey just does not meet our inclusion threshold.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:18, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Has extensive credits, once again we have to not conflate mediocre article quality with lack of notability. No question that sources are needed. But the solution is to take a serious look at verifying what's in there. Many of these film actors at this level take some digging to find source material, but it's often out there. Montanabw(talk) 06:51, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've sourced less known BLPs so it can be done however in this case there's nothing out there so quite honestly it cannot be done here, I have no objections to it being recreated but as it stands there's no notability and at present they don't warrant an article. –Davey2010Talk 00:35, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize that I do not have time to go through all the sources you've provided, but I looked quickly and the few that I looked at were just passing mentions (she was at an event, etc.) and one was an interview. --Darth Mike(talk) 14:22, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete When one of the three cited sources is to one of the Daily Mail's "Look at this woman's clothes/body" pruriencies, it's kind of scraping the barrel. In the article and the offered links above, I don't see enough to qualify her under either WP:NACTOR or WP:GNG. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 07:07, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Nice job on the sources, unfortunately, several are non-rs, and the others, as was pointed out by Darth Mike, are only mentions. No significant, in-depth coverage from reliable sources. Onel5969 TT me 17:33, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable actress, Few mentions on Google but nothing substantial, Has been in Grange Hill and Waterloo Road so redirecting to one of those would probably be best, Anyway fails GNG –Davey2010Talk 20:52, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep - She is listed as a character on the Waterloo Road TV series, and the main body of the article itself lists "Lauren Andrews" (the character she plays). --FuzzyGopher (talk) 21:10, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Being a character of a notable show doesn't grant one an article. –Davey2010Talk 22:11, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • 2 cites to 2 bbc programmes, A character profile and some random homepage doesn't indicate notability and infact it actually proves my point that she's not notable and doesn't meet GNG. –Davey2010Talk 22:11, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Not notable (a whopping four credits), and no viable sources. The BBC citations are merely episode recaps. sixtynine • speak up • 07:20, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This debate has been included in the list of Actors and filmmakers-related deletion discussions. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 23:59, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect per nom. Nothing in the sources found seems to establish 'multiple significant roles' in TV series or movies. No in-depth coverage. Gab4gab (talk) 15:35, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Having a recurring role doesn't automatically grant one an article and the character she portrayed doesn't have an article either. –Davey2010Talk 01:27, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article is basically a campaign advertisement. Person isn't running for office until next year so at least WP:TOOSOON. Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:33, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that's a very fair argument. This person is running in a currently active campaign, with the primary elections less than a year away. You can use this logic for any politician. Please clarify why you believe this page is unworthy, it fits all wiki criteria and guidelines. None of the info is false nor is it in any way an advertisement, i purposefuly wrote it in a very objective manner. If you have any thoughtful ideas on how to change it, however, please let me know and I will gladly cooperate. Markumansky (talk) 01:52, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, instead of attacking this and saying delete, could you all offer some advice on this issue? How can I change this around so that it does not fail? I am new to posting on wikipedia so I'm not sure that I understand. I would really appreciate advice and not complete shutting down. Markumansky (talk) 02:37, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Markumansky: I understand it is frustrating and creating a page for the first time can be challenging. What you need to appreciate is that no one is attacking you or the page. This is how Wikipedia works. I'm sorry to say that if you are going to take such things personally, this may not be the place for you. Pages on Wikipedia must meet the General notability guideline and in this case WP:POLITICIAN. You want advice? Here it is. Read the following links: WP:GNG, WP:POLITICIAN and WP:OSE. Finally, as you are new, I would encourage you to consider using Articles for creation. This process will allow you to slowly build a page with assistance as you go without fear of the page being deleted before it is ready. Best of luck. --Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 04:22, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay thanks for your clarification, it does mean a lot. Would I be able to read those guidelines and try to ammend my page in that case, or are you going to delete in regardless? I will try to fix it as soon as possible. Markumansky (talk) 15:17, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Per WP:POLITICIAN being "an unelected candidate for political office does not guarantee notability" and there is no other evidence this individual is notable or recognised outside New Jersey state politics. This article functions largely as a campaign advertisement. AusLondonder (talk) 21:56, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, as above, per WP:POLITICIAN among several other issues. I appreciate the frustration of the editor who created this article, but this article is not ready for prime time at this point. Alansohn (talk) 23:44, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This guy may appear on the primary ballot next year, which he may win, and then he may go on to be elected governor. If he wins the primary he may then have enough coverage to create a workable article. For now there just is not that and we should delete.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:38, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - As of now, he is not a notable politician. Meatsgains (talk) 01:11, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. As always, a person does not qualify for a Wikipedia article just for being a candidate for office in and of itself — if you cannot demonstrate and source that he was already notable enough for an article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he does not become notable enough for an article until he wins the election. We create and keep and maintain articles about holders of notable political offices, not everybody who merely runs for one. No prejudice against recreation next year if he wins the governorship, but nothing shown or sourced here gets him an article today. Bearcat (talk) 02:37, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I concur with the majority of views previously offered; individual does not meet the notability requirement for a politician, activist, businessman, or anything else. The article is written as a campaign advertisement, on top of that. ALPolitico (talk) 02:57, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
