Fails WP:BASE/N. Never played in a regular season Nippon Professional Baseball game. Honestly, I'm not even sure this is a real person. No corresponding Japanese Wiki article, and the roster for the 1965 Taiyo Whales which he supposedly played for doesn't list him. The lone source is from an Out of the Park Baseball simulator site, which makes me believe this is a fake player. Penale52 (talk) 23:39, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Unable to find a single verifiable source on this person. The Baseball Reference link from the above editor is for a page for a person of the same name, but who was born in 1989 so clearly not this guy. Spanneraol (talk) 19:30, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Played only in NPB minor leagues not in the main league so has no claim to notabiliy.. No reason to redirect to the Dragons page as he is not listed on that page and is not on the current roster.

Fails WP:BASE/N. Played in the U.S. minor leagues, and was signed to the Hiroshima Toyo Carp, but never played in a regular season Nippon Professional Baseball game. Penale52 (talk) 23:21, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep at the very least redirect ToHiroshima Toyo Carp as reliable statistics of his stats aren't readily available. IT does say he pitched for the team. He did play though as he was the subject of controversy [1] Upon further look he serves as a coach head coach for the Dominican National Team during the Pan American Games [2] He was scouted by the Yankees. [3], was the subject of tampering by the Boston Red Sox [4] and other places [5] BlackAmerican (talk) 02:47, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Again, it makes no sense to redirect to a team where he is not on the roster.. and yes NPB statistics are readily available. Getting scouted is not notable, lots of people get scouted, playing in the Japanese minor leagues is not notable, being the subject of "controversy" can help with notability but the controversy here was fairly mild and didn't lead to any substantial articles about him. Playing in the Pan Am Games has occasionally been considered acceptable for inclusion, barely, by some, but thats not been clear cut.. coaching on the other hand is not. Spanneraol (talk) 19:34, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Spanneraol. There is no reason to redirect to a team he longer plays for. Lepricavark (talk) 15:04, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Stubby article with little content. Sources only show that he played in a winter league in Hawaii which has no notability.

  • Delete For above reason, also this is not a rivalry. These 2 teams have played 40 times in 81 years which is hardly a rivalry. Sure they play in the same conference, but that's hardly a reason for an article. Merge the results of the games into both football team pages.--Rockchalk717 23:55, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and Salt because, yes, although it was only 1 other deletion, it shows no one cared to take genuine reviewing steps for this, this giving us thoughts of either a G4 or 2nd AfD. The sources listed are simply entirely trivial and unconvincing, as is the current information here, they're simply focusing with triviality about her job and her own information thus trivial, regardless of publication and name. SwisterTwister talk 16:52, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:Wikipedia:Deletion policy makes it explicitly clear that current article condition is not a reason for deletion. The article was only created a day ago so that "no one cared to take genuine reviewing steps for this" is irrelevant not to mention nonsensical. When a topic has received significant coverage from multiple reliable sources and thus passing WP:GNG, salting is out of the question.
Additionally, I just performed some WP:HEY work, removed most of the the content relied and Facebook/Instragram and replaced them with actual reliable sources. --Oakshade (talk) 20:33, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep in view of the reliable sources provided such as The Evening Standard and Daily Record press coverage , the subject may not be academic but GNG should be applied fairly to all professions and not be too elitist or snobbish.

Despite what the lone source claims, I do not believe McDaniel ever played in the negro leagues. No other online sources back this up, he lacks a Baseball-Reference or Seamheads negro league page, and does not appear in James A. Riley's The Biographical Encyclopedia of the Negro Baseball Leagues. Therefore, he fails WP:GNG and WP:BASE/N. Penale52 (talk) 19:33, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Meets notability. When you say he doesn't appear, do you mean to this website? [12] BlackAmerican (talk) 21:26, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That confirms that he exists, but it doesn't confirm that he played in the negro leagues. No stats, years, or teams are listed. If it can't be proven that he played at least one game in a top-level negro league game, he doesn't pass WP:BASE/N. Penale52 (talk) 23:12, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
One source says he played in the negro leagues. All the sources you listed show some people playing and others not playing. Neither are comprehensive. Playing means he played, and thus qualifies as satisfying. So he passes GNG. BlackAmerican (talk) 03:07, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That Baseball-Reference page doesn't even confirm that its the same person as the article as there is biographical information. It could have been a person with the same name who was listed on a minor league roster at some point, a minor league umpire, as Baseball-Reference (Minors) has pages like that for both. And that lone passing mention about him in that book literally says absolutely nothing about his career, with no positions or teams or years. McDaniel may have played on semi-pro teams, or maybe even was on a roster of an actual negro league teams, but again there are absolutely no sources with can prove that he ever played a regular season,major league quality game in the negro leagues, which is needed to pass #3 of WP:BASE/N. A passing mention in a book which contains almost nothing about what supposedly this person is notable for, and a Baseball-Reference page with no biographical or statistical information is not enough to pass GNG.--Penale52 (talk) 13:27, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. There is no verifiable proof that he played in the Negro Leagues and no substantial coverage of him from any sources.

While the company does have a valid notability claim and reliable source coverage, I have to agree with Shawn in that we do not need three separate articles about Environics, Environics Communications and Environics Analytics as three separate standalone topics — at this level of substance, we only need one article about the whole company, with subsections for its communications and analytics divisions.

Non-notable "nightlife personality" and "employee of the Butter Group". Doesn't meet the notability criteria in my opinion. The company he works for might, perhaps, but he doesn't. Yintan  16:25, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The main source on this page was www.ronniemadra.com . I edited some errors, exaggerations, and false claims. The group he works wth does parties with notable attendees of events such as The Met Ball after-party but these are not official parties related to the event. The timeline of his claim to have befriended Eric Goode when he owned Area nightclub doesn't add up since Area existed from 1983 to 1987 and Ronnie was born in 1971. Madra would have been 15 or 16 years old when it closed and people under 21 are not permitted to be in nightclubs with a liquor license. Perpetual808 (talk) 05:11, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the arguments in the previous discussion, it would seem that whoever recreated the article has NOT addressed the issues that were brought up. That in itself is grounds for deletion, quoting from the WP:G4 tag, "...[failure in addressing] the reasons for which the material was deleted". Aside from that, the subject is blatantly non-notable, and there's also no news source to assert any form of notability. I am well aware that this article does not fulfill the criteria for speedy deletion, as it is not (exactly) a lookalike to its previous revision; however, the fact still stands that the previous concerns were still not addressed at all.

  • Keep Has released several songs (including singles, remixes and albums) on the ever-growing and popular Monstercat record label, I believe this does not make him fail WP:MUSICBIO and the page will soon get more reliable sources User:MicroPowerpoint (talk) 10:50, 22 November 2016 (ACDT)
Comment: Which one of the twelve criteria does your claim meets? There's no chart of any single or album (for #2), Monstercat is not a label with many notable performers (for #5), the page was created one year ago and the musician is active since 2007 but still no reliable sources (for #1, #4) - TheMagnificentist (talk) 10:05, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I am refering to #5. Although you said that Monstercat is not notable, I'd say it very much is, as it has several notable performers, some later singed to larger record labels like OWSLA (Notably Marshmello & Slushii). It comes down to who you would define 'notable', maybe someone who is easily recognisable, made it in the top charts or someone who has had tens or hundreds of millions of views on Youtube. Monstercat probably isn't a 'major' record label, but it is an important indie label, with it having a history since 2011, having roster of 72 musicians in the 2016 roster alone and has featured many big names or notable artists such as Seven Lions, Marshmello, Vicetone, Timmy Trumpet, Slushii, San Holo, Pegboard Nerds, Tristam, Jauz, Excision, Aero Chord, SCNDL, Project 46 & Krewella. I belive this makes Monstercat fit the criteria and more importantly, make Ephixa a Notable Artist along side his ever growing fanbase, with James having over 400,000 Youtube Subscribers, over 60,000 Soundcloud followers and over 25,000 twitter followers. - User:MicroPowerpoint (talk) 00:39, 23 November 2016
Comment: And what about releasing two or more albums? I don't think he released a full-length album under Monstercat, it says self-released in the discography section. - TheMagnificentist (talk) 15:46, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: He's released two EPs (Matches Remixes EP) & Some Wobbles EP), he has been featured on the Monstercat 5 year anniversary album and has songs released in the following main Monstercat albums: 001, 002, 003, 004, 005,006,007 & 009. He has also been in Going Quantums Hello? Remix EP which was released on Monstercat. He has also released 9 singles on monstercat, all of which has been featured in the albums listed above. I'm sure he has released on Monstercat enough for him to pass #5. Just a quick catch up, I put Some Wobble EP as self released because Ephixa listed it on his website, he doesn't list any songs or EPs he has released on Monstercat on his website. After a quick google search, I have changed this to be correct, which it is released my Monstercat. . - User:MicroPowerpoint (talk) 23:11, 23 November 2016 (ACDT)

Comment - IMO, your claim to its notability is hyperbole. It's not even close to meeting the criterion and the closing admin will know what to do. - TheMagnificentist (talk) 10:00, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Regardless of any debate about whether anything here passes an WP:NMUSIC criterion or not, a person does not get an automatic inclusion freebie just because the article claims passage of an NMUSIC criterion: he gets an article only if and when he's the subject of enough reliable source coverage to pass WP:GNG. The NMUSIC criteria clarify the kinds of things that are accepted as valid claims of notability if they're supported by proper sourcing, but they do not hand the article an exemption from having to be properly sourced just because passage of an NMUSIC criterion has been unsourcedly claimed. Out of 36 "sources" in this article, not a single one of them is a valid one — it's almost all Reddit threads and YouTube videos and his own social networking profiles, with no evidence of real media coverage shown at all. No prejudice against recreation if and when somebody can source it better than this — but regardless of what NMUSIC criterion an article claims to satisfy, NMUSIC is still not passed until reliable sources are carrying that claim past GNG.

  • Comment Of course he is French!!! Corsica is a French Island there is no such thing as the Corsican nationality. You could say he's from Corsica or he is Corsican but he is also French. Domdeparis (talk) 08:51, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
He's Corsican, similar to the way that Puerto Ricans are Puerto Ricans, even though they are also American citizens. I didn't say his passport was Corsican, I said HE is Corsican. He is not a Frenchman. You can't seriously argue that there is no such thing as Corsican people. I pointed this out because, being that he is Corsican, which has its own language, the fact that his article was deleted from the French-language Wikipedia is not relevant. He has achieved notability in Corsica as provided by the links above, in addition to the English-language magazine article. МандичкаYO 😜 21:25, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I have dual nationality, French and British I have been living in France for 25 years i know what i am talking about. Of course he is a Frenchman i don't want to get into a sterile argument about Corsican independence and i never said that he wasn't Corsican but you cannot say that he isn't French, that is intellectually dishonest. When Corsica gains independence and is no longer part of France you can say that they are no longer French but until then this is blatantly wrong. In the same way you cannot say that Sicilians are not Italians. Corsica is a French department and all Corsican are French whether they like it or not. the situation Puerto Rico is totally different there are 2 citizenship Puerto Rican and American, Puerto Rico is a commonwealth but is not a US state. I suggest you read Puerto Rico and Corsica to get a better understanding of the differences. Domdeparis (talk) 09:26, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say they were identical; I said they were similar. In English we would not refer to someone from Corsica (or someone who is Basque for example) as a Frenchman as this has ethnic connotations. The same way you have the terms Englishman, Scotsman or even Yorkshireman - adding the suffix -man applies ethnicity or locality, not citizenship or nationality. My point is that your argument about the article being deleted off the French wikipedia is totally irrelevant. I have provided sufficient coverage to show he meets WP:GNG. МандичкаYO 😜 18:43, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @Wikimandia: I'm not sure if English is your first language but the normal way to describe a man who has French nationality and is a citizen of France is as a Frenchman it has nothing to do with ethnicity it is a simple matter of semantics and nothing more. Someone from the USA is an American someone from Germany is a German someone from Great Britain is a Briton (he may also be a Scot) someone from Spain is a Spaniard and a chap from the Netherlands is a Dutchman it's just the idiosyncratic way that English works. You might like to read this Demonym#-man it should help you understand. Someone who holds an American passport is an American even if he describes himself as being a Hawaiian, I would say that Corsica is much much closer in status to Hawaii than Puerto Rica, you might want to compare the 2 to understand the similarities.

  • Delete I can't view the Gbooks entry you shared, for some reason, but the way the article is written seems like it wasn't originally formatted for Wikipedia. I'm inclined to agree for that reason. It's also a guide, which doesn't belong here. If it's not a copyvio, we might move it to Wikiversity (supposedly, I just learned about this). Jergling (talk) 21:04, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Quick update - Fixed the gbooks search by re-submitting. I'm not sure it's a deletion-worthy copyvio, but it is made by a SPA switching between two similarly named accounts. The methods described here are not credited to anyone or properly cited at all, and the refs here are mostly "letters" as opposed to accepted papers.

WOMAA is not the karaté world championship or kickboxing world championships so he cannot be titled world champion; His musical career is not notable. So fails WP:NSPORTS, WP:MUSBIO and WP:BIO and WP:GNG Domdeparis (talk) 11:20, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are more than one governing body for Karate and Kickboxing. WOMAA (which stands for the World Organization of Martial Arts Athletes) is a governing body for numerous Martial Arts. On their website, stay that "All competitors who compete in the WOMAA World Martial Games are of Olympic Caliber and travel each year to the games to find out who will win the Gold and earn the right to become a WOMAA World Champion". So, he could and was be titled World Champion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamesdavis1992 (talkcontribs) 11:44, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WTKA is also a very well known governing body for various Martial Arts. He left this World Championships with a Bronze medal, therefore he competed at "World Championship or Olympic quality", as stated in the Wikipedia guidelines for an article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamesdavis1992 (talkcontribs) 11:53, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Humm couldn't find much about either governing body and they don't have their own wikipedia pages...you know it's very easy to create an association and write that all the competitors are of Olympic standard...it doesn't make it true...especially as neither karate or kickboxing are Olympic sports. Please read Kickboxing and Karate for more information. This is the explanation from the web site of what the competition is...
a TRUE international competition which is OPEN to All Styles, All Systems, All Belt Ranks (Beginners, Intermediates, Advanced and all Black Belts), and all ages (kids and adults) doesn't sound like what you could call a world championship to me...I think we can safely say that the subject is not what you could call a world champion...Domdeparis (talk) 14:11, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WTKA is the Traditional Karate section of the WKA. WKA overlook WTKA. WKA has a Wikipedia page. All it takes is a simple search to find that out. It's okay though, I found it for you (http://www.wkaassociation.com/category/world-events/) . If you were to ask any Karate athlete, in any part of the world, if they'd heard of WTKA/WKA, then you'd get a unanimous yes. Also, Karate is an Olympic Sport. If you didn't know that, I don't think you're the right person to comment on the validity of any governing body. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamesdavis1992 (talkcontribs) 16:59, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So we agree that we can forget the "world champion" bit? In June this year it was decided that Karate will be an Olympic sport for the first time in 2020 but this is the first time and in the article you need to provide a source that proves that he was that he was bronze medalist in the WTKA world championships in 2010, I have looked and can't find it unfortunately. We are talking about a junior medal I suppose at the age of 15/16? IMHO a bronze medal as a junior fails WP:NSPORTS Domdeparis (talk) 18:22, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not a all. I think we need somebody'/ else's input on this, apart from you and I. Nope; the category he got Bronze in was ages 16-39. I think we need somebody else's opinion on what classifies as a sporting achievement at World Championship level. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamesdavis1992 (talkcontribs) 18:43, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I do not see the significant independent coverage required to meet WP:GNG. WOMAA has over 500 divisions from 6 and under beginners to 54 and over black belts and crowns a "world champion" in all of those categories. As a 16 year old who had studied martial arts for 1 year I doubt he was competing "at the highest level". There's nothing to indicate he's notable in either the martial arts or music business. There also appears to be a strong COI since the article was created by someone who trains with him. Papaursa (talk) 03:55, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: I understand the interest in improving the page, however biographies on Erika Schwartz from reliable sources do not exist. The current citations are snippets likely placed by publicity teams. Consequently, since the last AFD request, there have been no valuable additions to the page despite the maintenance tag (refimprove) in August. Thus, attempts to find reliable sources to verify have failed. In the last AFD, editors felt that Schwartz fails to meet the relevant notability guideline; she lacks significant in-depth coverage from reliable sources (WP:BIO). This combination seems to warrants deletion. Morganglick (talk) 21:10, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Passes WP:GNG with extensive coverage on her and her work from sources like the New York Times, the Daily Mail, USA Today, CBS News and others. [24][25][26][27]--Oakshade (talk) 06:28, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • The sources that are proving her "notability" violate several rules of Wikipedia.
    • 1. One source links to ProQuest which violates WP:ELREG. There is also a WSJ article that also violates WP:ELREG[28][29]
    • 2. The first NY Times article (BOOKS ON HEALTH, Standing up for Nature) is a page about her book, rather than establishing biographical facts [30].
    • 4. Finally, there is a WP:ELDEAD link in the article. They have linked to an archived version on Web Archive but the original link is still dead [32]
    • 5. Her personal website is used as a resource, when it does not support the statement at all [33]

At a glance, these support WP:GNG, but once investigated do not prove her notability. Once you remove these sources, and the statements that go along with them, she loses WP:GNG Jsmith206 (talk) 20:53, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You are only speaking of some of the sources in the article at time of AfD, not the additional ones presented here and a couple of other ones in the article that establish notability (except the NYT one which I'll get to). WP:Notability makes it explicitly clear that notability guidelines do not apply to content within an article. That something like her personal website is used as a source is just a red herring. It's the existence of qualifying sources that count to notability, not possible flawed sources in the article at time of AfD. For the WP:ELDEAD issue, WP:GNG makes it very clear that the sources don't need to be available online. As for the NYT book review, that the New York Times reviewed her book is further coverage on her and her work and further indication of notability. --Oakshade (talk) 00:26, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oakshade, You only added here two sources that are not cited in the article. The first one of these is the Daily Mail piece which is low quality because it represents churnalism, rather that in-depth coverage independent of the subject. The other one you added here is the USA Today article which is barely anything more than the result of her book publisher running a press junket, which does not add any relevant biographical information. There still remains a severe lack of sources that cover her at the level needed to write even a minimal BLP. Delta13C (talk) 08:57, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Having a second look at that Daily Mail article and I see it is really in depth. Your original research speculation that journalist Frances Hardy is just copying a press-release is noted - by the way, without any evidence of such, you just committed a WP:BLP violation - but the coverage of this person demonstrates there is a high amount of sources. --Oakshade (talk) 09:11, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Does not meet WP:GNG. Notability is established from in-depth coverage from reliable, independent sources, which this page lacks. The sources do not show recognition from the medical community, but rather the press as a result of promotional activity (around her book releases). Techwikiwitty (talk) 14:39, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • 'Delete' - as said by Techwikikitty above, notability is established through coverage in reliable sources sufficient to provide enough data for a standalone article. There might be sufficient sourcing for an article on one or more of her books, or her theory or theories, but not so far as I can see on the lady herself. John Carter (talk) 20:24, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. There are not enough sources and that introduces tensions between two competing imperatives: WP:BLP versus WP:NPOV.

A pointless list of isolation techniques including WP:OR. If you want to get a list of isolation techniques just look at Category:Shunning or Category:Social rejection. Isolation techniques tend to relate to different contexts rather than being a homogenous concept. I am not aware of any bodies of work devoted to isolation techniques generally. How much each one is aligned to bullying or abuse (which is the angle of the article) is arguable and different. --Penbat (talk) 18:40, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • merge/redirect to Social isolation as tagged. The article is not only list; It also has some meaningful referenced mergeable text. Staszek Lem (talk) 23:46, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Staszek Lem, I can see that abusive isolation is a credible and important concept. I have experienced it myself as part of a bullying strategy. Your opportunity to interact with others is restricted so you cant get help from others to overcome the abuse. This applies, for example, in domestic abuse and cults. It is something that is missing from all the Category:Shunning and Category:Social rejection articles. In principle I agree to merge to Social isolation#Abusive and punitive isolation but the list needs to be truncated and the text in the Purpose of Isolation section expanded and Wikified. Isnt punitive isolation already covered by Send to Coventry, Ostracism and Silent treatment ? Maybe just focus on "abusive isolation" stuff that isnt already covered elsewhere. Actually the expression "abusive isolation" is ambiguous as it might imply a form of torture such as sensory deprivation for its own sake. "Isolation to facilitate abuse" is clearer so section heading would be Social isolation#To facilitate abuse.--Penbat (talk) 16:58, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I have looked at this in more detail. It will not work to create a new section in social isolation as the scope of the material is broader than just social isolation. Also the rest of social isolation is entirely about voluntary social isolation which is something different. I have created a draft of new article User:Penbat/Isolation to facilitate abuse which uses all the usable material I can see in Isolation Techniques (Individual) and some new material which I have added. I believe User:Penbat/Isolation to facilitate abuse is good enough to launch although there is plenty of scope to improve it over time. That renders Isolation Techniques (Individual) redundant and in my opinion is not even worth keeping as a redirect as it is an unlikely search expression.--Penbat (talk) 19:04, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment - Isobel Chaveh, the sole purpose of publishing my article Isolation Techniques (Individual) on Wikipedia was to create necessary balancing controversy (विनाश) on this subject - to the point of Undoing, which it has, by Penbat. 

Isolation Techniques is a short excerpt from a sociopsychological analysis of the Financially Controlling Psychological Abuser, an abstract by Sri Neale Tamal, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Oxford Hindu Studies.   Isolation Techniques are but a part of the methodology used by FCPAs. It is of interest to note that other male sociopaths such as dictators, emperors, cult leaders, abusive husbands, fundamentalist evangelists, all employ the same identical tactics & methodology in gaining power over their victims or subjects.

You may read Dr. Tamal's complete work on this subject after it has been translated in its entirety & published.  Retaining excerpts of his articles on Wikipedia as a reference source of materia is not necessary. Isobel Chaveh (talk)

Comment Dr. Tamal's work may well be credible as one of the sources after it is published. Anyway with User:Penbat/Isolation to facilitate abuse your article lives on in a modified form. I think I have picked up on your "other male sociopaths such as dictators, emperors, cult leaders, abusive husbands, fundamentalist evangelists, all employ the same identical tactics & methodology in gaining power over their victims or subjects" angle.--Penbat (talk) 21:43, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I am itching to launch User:Penbat/Isolation to facilitate abuse. Nobody has objected to it. I will wait until 7 days have passed with this AFD.--Penbat (talk) 10:20, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Penbat: Would'n it be a WP:FORK of the discussed article? Please explain what's the difference in the subject. Also, before progressing with your draft, please get familiar with wikipedia guidelines about WP:SYNTHESIS and other issues of WP:NOR so that you avoid the pitfalls. Also, I would advise a simpler title: "Abusive isolation". Staszek Lem (talk) 20:17, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I already explained above that "Actually the expression "abusive isolation" is ambiguous as it might imply a form of torture such as sensory deprivation for its own sake." Anyway "Isolation to facilitate abuse" tells you a bit more. "Coercive isolation" might have been credible but unfortunately if you Google it it is mainly used as a political term. The original article and my draft both refer to "physical isolation", "emotional isolation" and social isolation". It makes no sense to make article a section in social isolation for this and other reasons. I am not WP:SYNTHing or WP:NORing anything. My draft already has 23 different cites. It spells out that coercive (non voluntary) isolation is a common feature of many types of abuse. As I have already started doing in my draft, isolation for the different types of abuse are to be described in separate sections. Some common features between different abuse types may in some cases become apparent. Unlike the original Isolation Techniques (Individual), my draft has a proper focus and is far less WP:SYNTH and WP:NOR. That is the whole point. I was only suggesting that Isobel Chavehs theme may shine through incidentally but not explicitly. --Penbat (talk) 20:42, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"abusive" and "to facilitate abuse" is an unnecessary splitting hairs. Torture is abuse. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:35, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It is self evident that if an abused person is isolated, an abuser can abuse more easily. Within individual contexts in my draft there is repeated mention of isolation giving the abuser power and control to allow abuse to take place. The fact that the isolation could itself be abusive as a form of torture (as sensory deprivation) is a different subject and a specialised case. To include it here and call article abusive isolation makes article lose its focus completely.--Penbat (talk) 09:30, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There is no question of WP:FORK as originally I wanted this article binned completely, hence this AFD. But I then realised that some aspects of the article address an important gap in the Wikipedia coverage in this area. As I explained I have copied over all that I think are all the usable bits of the original article and added some new material. Thus the original article can then be binned anyway.--Penbat (talk) 21:10, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Since you copied something, it cannot be binned, per wikipedia licensing rules; article histories must be merged instead. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:31, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever. That could be got round by pasting my new version into Isolation Techniques (Individual) and renaming it Isolation to facilitate abuse. This situation is not unique and you seem to be looking for excuses to stall it. It is not uncommon for editors to draft major revisions of articles in sandboxes and in fact it is the sensible thing to do.--Penbat (talk) 09:30, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I propose to merge the content in your draft with the existing material into one article, though I cannot decide whcih would be the best title. DGG ( talk ) 21:03, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment to Staszek Lem. This AFD is lasting an eternity. I have changed my position to accomodate your WP:FORK concern. We only now seem to differ on the new name of the article. DGG is happy with using my new draft but is undecided about the title. It looks to me like I am the only person with the motivation to progress this further. Please clarify where you stand now as this AFD has the real prospect of just dying a death. It is self-evident that my proposal is at least an improvement on the original article put up for AFD.--Penbat (talk) 09:57, 17 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding "abusive isolation" v "isolation to facilite abuse", the second option is self-evidently better as it better reflects the content of my draft and avoids ambiguities. Isolation as torture is a completely separate issue already covered elsewhere, for example in sensory deprivation and solitary confinement.--Penbat (talk) 13:19, 17 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment RyanHartman389 please read WP:BIO if he has made some very significant work for charities despite his young age there must be some sources somewhere that prove this.

  • Strong delete. Complete fail of WP:NHOCKEY and WP:BIO. This charity work that keeps getting mentioned only amounts to him playing on a team that participated in a charity event. There's no substantial coverage of him in the cited sources about the events: one only mentions him in the list of team members captioning an image, and the other doesn't mention him at all. —C.Fred (talk) 21:10, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

* His name is mentioned in the articles. That meets WP:BIO guidelines.

  • ^ I disagree fully. This article should not be deleted it's only 1 day old and has a lot of notable information regarding this boys life already and is only going to grow. You google this name and dozens of sites show him. Not to mention his social media following that will continue to support the page and add more information to it as time goes on. There's no point. It will keep being brought back and revived. It also clearly states he has done work for various charities in the references.

It's nonsense to have this extra (highly redundant) article. Everything is (or needs to be) in Norepinephrine. Leyo 07:48, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think the original motivation for a separate article was to have an article that could use {{Drugbox}} rather than {{Infobox neurotransmitter}}. See [42].

  • Keep Disclosure: I'm the editor who split the two; I am also the primary contributor to norepinephrine and took it to GA status. I sympathize with the motivation here, but I don't think AfD is the right place to have this discussion. The issues have already been discussed extensively at Talk:Norepinephrine, and it will be necessary for contributors to familiarize themselves with that background in order to have an informed opinion. I believe the question ought to be handled with an RfC at the talk page, if anywhere. Certainly the ordinary criteria for deletion do not apply here.

  • Keep. As noted by other editors, there is currently a consensus at WP:MED and WP:PHARM to allow separate pages for medications that are also endogenous substances. There's a clear rationale for doing so, based on what readers are looking for, and it is specific to these specific kinds of compounds, so this is not just any "single chemical", and it certainly isn't "nonsense". --Tryptofish (talk) 23:38, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge sorry but I have to say I'm with Leyo on this one, I feel these splits are unnecessary and potentially confusing to readers, and I don't feel they are helpful to the project as a whole. There may be some cases where there is so much to be said about the medical uses of an endogenous hormone / neurotransmitter etc that it is best to split it from the "non-medical" content, but I don't feel this to be the case for any of the examples we have discussed recently. And frankly I don't think there is consensus for a split either, having a handful of very active and vocal wikiproject medicine members who refuse to compromise and will just argue endlessly until they get their own way because no one can be bothered arguing with them any longer, is not the same as building consensus for a change of this nature.

I don't think this worth to have a dedicated entry on an encyclopedia, if it some kind ostracism, I guess it is better to be merged to that. −ebrahimtalk 20:29, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Response by Isobel Chaveh:

Qahr & ashti is not ostracism, qahr is an Iranian social behavior, a ritualized custom of avoidance towards a family member to let him or her know that he or she needs to change a certain behavior. Once the behavior has been changed to satisfaction, then ashti (forgiveness) can be enacted.

Iranians do not sit down & discuss family problems the way Americans do - they play nonvocalized behavior games like qahr, taarof and "Face"

Taarof, another Iranian social behavior, has its own separate page.

Face (sociological), a social behavior, is another separate Wikipedia article that has entries of the different "Face" behaviors of several countries, including Iran. "Face" is the primary social behavior of Islamic cultures.

Another page, Culture of Iran, does not address social behavior at all; this is not a good page to incorporate Iranian customs of social behavior such as qahr, taarof & "face".

Ostracism is an ancient Roman-based form of legal punishment - banning an individual from his hometown for a prescribed number of years - this custom was carried over into the Middle Ages, Dante was ostracized from Florence for 10 years.

Today, ostracism is a public form of avoidance & condemnation of an individual or of a group.

Qahr, on the other hand, is designed to be played within a family setting only; it is shockingly bad manners to publicly ostracize anyone, or to let anyone outside the family be aware than an individual is being shown qahr.

Ashti (forgiveness) is a component of the social behavior called "Qahr & Ashti". There is no forgiveness with ostracism.

Therefore, merging Qahr with Ostracism would lead to misconceptions that they are different names for the same behavior - they are not. Ostracism is very public & all are encouraged to join in the shunning; qahr is very private & kept hidden from all outside the family.

Qahr can be a form of psycholgical abuse by a perpetrator towards a victim; different forms of similar psychological abuse such as silent treatment, shunning, Isolation Techniques (Individual), snub, & Isolationism, & ostracism all have separate pages on Wikipedia.

  • Comment Just following up from my watchlist: No, we don't need a separate article about Iranian shunning just because it has a local name. It's still fundamentalist shunning; it's still studied and described in the same way, which is confirmed by your sources. -Jergling PC Load Letter 18:28, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge into Ostracism per WP:ATD-M. Taking user:Isobel Chaveh's arguments that this is a specific societally-bound and not religious cultural practice at face value, it still doesn't demonstrate a reason for a standalone article. Specific cultural variations within an ancient custom (which it apparently is) can be easily accommodated within the article on the generalized topic.

Delete. WP:BLP of a single-market local radio personality, referenced only to a glancing namecheck of his existence in an overall history of one of the radio stations he worked for. As always, a radio personality does not automatically qualify for a Wikipedia article just because he exists -- he must be the subject of enough reliable source coverage to get over WP:GNG. But nothing here demonstrates that — and the reliable sources I can locate on his name are overwhelmingly more about his son Bob Jr. (a still-current and nationally-syndicated radio personality), with the only hit that maps to Bob Sr. being a one-line soundbite in an article about the El Mocambo.

Delete. Article about a single-station local radio program airing only in a single media market, with very little reliable sourcing to pass WP:NMEDIA: of the nine sources here, six are primary sources, user-generated chat forums and blogs that cannot confer notability at all. And of the three sources that do actually constitute reliable source coverage, they're all to local media in the show's own home market. This is not enough sourcing to make a single-market radio show notable, however: if you cannot show nationalized coverage demonstrating that the show is known beyond its own local market, then getting it past NMEDIA takes a lot more than just three pieces of the type of coverage that every radio show in existence always gets in the local media.

And, in fact, the article's been flagged for both sourcing and notability since 2010 without seeing any improvement on either score. Bearcat (talk) 23:06, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to the election per Cullen328. Being a losing candidate in an election is not grounds for an article in and of itself, unless the person can be shown to clear a Wikipedia inclusion criterion for some reason independent of the candidacy (e.g. already having preexisting notability for other reasons.) But that's not shown here. As a gubernatorial candidate rather than a legislative one, however, he is a plausible enough search term that his name should lead somewhere relevant rather than just redlinking.

For the record I actually created this article. I have since come to realize we need stricter controls on Wikipedia content. There is just no evidence that Andelin is widely recognized for his work at a level that would make him a nottable sculptor. 2 of the sources are essentially his website and an add source. The Mormon Times article was written by the LDS Public affiars rep in his stake, and thus has lots of conflict of interest points. The LDS Church News article might go for something, but to establish him as a notable scultor I think we would need more than at best 2 articles about him.

Anderson just has not received the level of notice to make her notable per general notability guidelines or author notability guidelines.

Ashdown just does not pass the notability guidelines of musicians. On the side of GNG, the Church News article might be enough for one point, see here [44] although others might argue it is too much a recapped interview without fact checking to be useable. The Palo Alto sourced article is not about him, and the other source is from his publisher. So we do not have multiple independent 3rd party secondary sources as required by the GNG.

Baer is a motivational speaker/writer.

Some opening thoughts, in preparing this article I realized we need to discourage people from removing "broken links". The broken link removed was the Deseret News article on Barclay, which is the only thing that could count as a reliable, 3rd-party, secondary source. I was able to find her Linkedin page and her website, which include information she got a masters degree from George Washington Univeristy, lives in the DC area and works in public relations. Still even with the Deseret News article the place of and date of her marriage are totally unsourced. IMDb is not a reliable source. Being Miss Utah is in and of itself not a claim to being notable. I thought it was when I created this article back in August 2008 on the day the Deseret News article used as a source was published. My google search showed up nothing else except short one sentance mentions in Sanpete County publications, nothing to support passing the GNG.

The majority of content is sourced to a single opinion piece in the New Yorker: Trolls for Trump. It's used to make a number of unattributed claims about the subject. Without it we're left with passing mentions in RS and the author's self-published blogs and tweets. James J. Lambden (talk) 02:40, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You keep saying that it's an opinion, but I do not see where that's coming from. It's based on direct reporting. How is it an opinion? Grayfell (talk) 02:49, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
See WP:NEWSORG, specifically:
  • Editorial commentary, analysis and opinion pieces, whether written by the editors of the publication (editorials) or outside authors...
Comments such as "His political analysis was nearly as crass as his dating advice" and "Without months of priming by Cernovich and others, Clinton’s collapse might have been seen as an isolated event" suggest both opinion and analysis. James J. Lambden (talk) 03:04, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't an opinion piece as its commonly defined. A lengthier profile is not expected to be in the same news style as a blurb, nor would that make it more desirable or reliable. Not every example of a journalist's perspective is editorial commentary, and not every (arguably) subjective opinion discredits an entire article. Journalists are expected to interpret and connect different aspects of a topic to form a digestible summary. That's the entire point of this kind of story. Grayfell (talk) 03:28, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
What's relevant is how policy defines it which I've quoted. Opinion pieces, like the New Yorker's long form, encourage authors to take a position and support it which colors the article's claims; it's not the disinterested standard we require for factual claims and why we require attribution by policy. It would be good to give uninvolved editors a chance to weigh in. James J. Lambden (talk) 03:51, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Who's stopping them? There are problems with your stated reason for deleting this article which need to be addressed. Virtually all long form articles like this will include the reporter's conclusions about the topic. Not all of those conclusions are incontrovertable or will be agreeable to all readers, but that's not a realistic goal, and that doesn't diminish the article. Those conclusions can be contorted into being labeled as "opinions" but that doesn't make this an editorial or opinion piece. What's the actual opinion being stated? That Cernovich is sometimes "crass"? That Cernovich's comments primed his readers to accept a conspiracy theory about Clinton? Neither of those are meaningfully opinions, nor particularly controversial. There is no such thing as journalism which refuses to draw any conclusions. Grayfell (talk) 05:08, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - There are more than enough reliable sources for this person, the subject is very notable, they were profiled in The New Yorker and have gotten a lot of media coverage. Nominating this page for deletion is ridiculous. The editor who nominated it for deletion, James J. Lambden, has this on their Wikipedia user page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:James_J._Lambden
Yes, an obnoxious picture of Donald Trump. Is it any surprise they'd want to delete the page of an ardent Trump supporter? Wikipedia is supposed to be neutral towards its subject matter and not have a political agenda. Neptune's Trident (talk) 04:37, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Please stick to the merits. You claim he has "a lot of media coverage" – if so I can't find it. In fact, coverage is apparently so minimal almost every paragraph in the article relies fully or partially on the single New Yorker piece (search the article page for "[3]" to confirm.) I tried to salvage it with proper RS, then by removing opinionated claims, but it soon became clear we'd be left with a stub. If other sources do exist the sooner they're added the better. James J. Lambden (talk) 05:07, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oh and while it may not be RS, searching "Beatty Bros." reveals this article from a Canadian historical writer Pat Mestern, who has a great article on the firm, writing: "Beatty Bros. Ltd, the largest Canadian company in the manufactory of reaping machines, barn equipment, washing machines, churns, pumps, hay tools, ladders and other wooden ware. As a matter of fact, Beatty Bros. Ltd, by 1925, was the largest producer, and exporter of barn and stable equipment in the British Empire."Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:43, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I also see workers housing adjacent to the former factory is now the Brock Avenue Heritage Conservation District. Now only were workers employed there: "The houses were designed by Harvey Matthews, a self-taught architect and designer, who worked in the Beatty's design department. The designs of several other properties in Fergus, including the Melville Church Hall, are attributed to him." So the company had an impact on the very face of the town (including the historically designated pool noted above. I would go so far as to say that even if consensus is against keeping, a selective merge to Fergus,_Ontario#History, which makes no mention of the company and its major role in the town's development, would be preferable. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:04, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • (edit conflict × 2)Delete The subject isn't notable; I'm not seeing GNG here. I found this source, too and I still am not convinced. McMaster isn't a source we can use because fonds are archival sources. That the university is holding it doesn't denote notability, either. Similarly, the Beatty stable equipment piece is from the company itself. I'm also disappointed by the lousy arguments above that ignore guidelines and facts; we should be better than this. Chris Troutman (talk) 20:10, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's a valid point about fonds and I'll remember that for the future. However I find Mestern's article about the company's scope to be persuasive, and the fact that there are a number of historically designated structures in Fergus all linked to Beatty Bros. and the role it had in shaping that town. If you find that argument to be "lousy," well, I don't see much room for polite discussion. thanks, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:16, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • We don't actually have any rule that archival fonds are always invalid sources per se; rather, the issue is whether the documents in the fonds are primary sources or not. Archives can and do also compile and collect reliable source coverage about the topic of the fonds, and that type of archival content would be acceptable for sourcing. Bearcat (talk) 16:38, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Bearcat: No. Emphatically, no. Beatty Brothers donated business records of theirs to the university as the inventory shows. This is how archives are created. (I wrote the article on national archives. Please read it.) That those documents are archived in the university does not make the company or the records notable. Per WP:PRIMARY "All analyses and interpretive or synthetic claims about primary sources must be referenced to a secondary source, and must not be an original analysis of the primary-source material by Wikipedia editors." If scholars write secondary material based on those archival documents then we could use those scholarly articles. There is no question about the fonds being primary sources. Further, the fonds are not even used as an in-line citation, so our argument isn't about the fonds as a source but as connoting notability, which it does not. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:44, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • I personally volunteer for an archive from time to time, and we most certainly do keep reliable source press clippings about the topics of our files if such exist and can be located and clipped or printed. And I've done enough research in other archives to know that the one I volunteer for is not an aberration in that regard — and, for that matter, even the inventory you linked above does include a file titled "Newsclippings re sale of Beatty family business. 1961-75." So I stand by what I said — an archival fonds does not necessarily comprise only the topic's own primary source documentation of itself, but most certainly can also include reliable source press coverage that does satisfy GNG. The mere fact that it is an archival fonds is not automatically disqualifying in and of itself — the content in the fonds may or may not count as reliable sourcing depending on its nature, but the mere fact that it's in an archive does not automatically render everything in the file inadmissible as sourcing. Bearcat (talk) 17:48, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to think The past is a foreign country, and that a local article about a firm which existed in the past carries more weight than a local article about a contemporary firm.

  • Keep. I am seeing a valid potential claim of notability here ("The company had become an international business, having branches in Great Britain, Australia, and New Zealand."), although I agree that the article as written isn't properly demonstrating or sourcing it yet. However, on a ProQuest search of The Globe and Mail, I'm getting 445 hits — and while some of them are just daily stock quote listings, there are also plenty of genuinely substantive news articles about the company too. And I haven't even tried the Toronto Star or the Ottawa Journal (the other two newspapers in which I have the ability to dig back past 1981) yet. It's a key principle of WP:AFD, however, that even if the sourcing in the article is inadequate we can still keep it, and merely flag it for reference and content improvement, as long as a WP:GNG-passing volume of sourcing can be shown to exist. Bearcat (talk) 16:38, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- having once been the largest of a kind points to notability. Devising the agitator, which was formerly important in washing machine technology, even if not so now, also points to notability. The RS requirement is that the content should be provable, not that it is currently proved. The article clearly needs tags for improvement both of references and content.

However, maybe editors versed in this field can suggest a redirect? If not, delete.Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:38, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Whilst being an extension of Shannon Entropy the context isn’t Shannon Entropy but mathematical theories of consciousness. This area of research (which is completely distinct from topic areas such as artificial intelligence) has only gained funding support and recognition in the last decade or so and there are only two (or three, depending on what is considered to qualify) such theories published involving rigorous mathematics; the other being Integrated Information Theory. Consequently, removing the page would leave a significant contribution to this, currently small, field totally unrepresented. In addition to the two peer reviewed articles about the theory that the page references, the theory is also cited by independent authors; e.g. Sergio Pissanetzky, Causal Groupoid Symmetries, Applied Mathematics, 2014, 05, 04, 628 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pmyxjwdm (talkcontribs) 18:35, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to FIFA Interactive World Cup. It's not an issue of WP:TOOSOON - if it were notable, we're within an acceptable time range to create the article. But individual Interactive World Cups are not notable - none of the others have articles and individual tournaments get little coverage outside FIFA's website. So I don't think it's notable, or ever will be notable even after it happens. That all being said, WP:NSEASONS says that in situations like this, it's better to redirect the individual seasons/tournaments to the main article than to delete, and it's a plausible search term, so that's what we should do. It also appears to have already been done with the 2016 FIFA Interactive World Cup, which is a redirect. Smartyllama (talk) 20:06, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Environics is notable as a Canadian pollster, as seen here. I think the two subsidiary articles can be merged to parent article, which is just a stub anyway. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:28, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • On second thought, I see the suggestion that there is "no independent coverage" is incorrect. There is, and it's national, in the Gnews results. This Globe and Mail feature is national. So is this one. Etc. But given the fact that the main article on the Environics group is just a stub, my preference would still be, for aid of navigation, to merge to one Environics Group main article, for as the boilerplate text at the end of the second G&M ref states: "The company is part of the privately owned Environics Group, which includes public relations company Environics Communications and Environics Research." Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:36, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Environics. While the company does have a valid notability claim and reliable source coverage, I have to agree with Shawn in that we do not need three separate articles about Environics, Environics Communications and Environics Analytics as three separate standalone topics — at this level of substance, we only need one article about the whole company, with subsections for its communications and analytics divisions.

  • Delete It is a freeware a run-of-the-mill RPG Maker game of which thousands exist. I tried to track down some reviews for this game but I couldn't find anything. There aren't even non-RS (blogs etc.) which talk about this game, it is pretty much unknown apart from some rpg-maker forum discussion. Gamejolt, which is linked in the article, is just a download repository for indie-Games and not a RS. There are some playthroughs on youtube, but they all have only about 20-50 views. It should also be noted that the article has been created by a single purpose account. The article should therefore be deleted by directly failing WP:GNG due a lack of RS.

  • Comment - I have rejected speedy deletion for this article. The criteria only applies to blatant hoaxes, and the template clarifies that "This only applies to cases where the deception is so obvious as to constitute pure vandalism." A series which may or may not have been shown on TPI's roster eight years ago does not meet that definition.
I can confirm, however, that I have not seen any RSes related to a series by this name on TPI. (I wouldn't go by MNCTV's website, though; it's unreasonable to expect a TV company to list information on an eight-year-old series that ran before the company changed its name)  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 09:40, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm asking for a WP:TNT specifically because it started out as a hoax. All the information presented in that article are entirely fabricated. There is no good version to go back to so it would be much better to be deleted. ArdiPras95 (talk) 11:00, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I never said it wasn't a hoax. I said it doesn't fall under the "blatant hoax" criterion of CSD, which it doesn't. A blatant hoax would be like "Chris Woodrich is the president-elect of the Republic of Wikipedialand". — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:34, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Um, no. Did I say I was advocating it? "I never said it wasn't a hoax." "Saya tidak pernah mengatakan kalau ini bukan hoax". The criterion is blatant hoax, and this does not meet that criterion. Kalau ArdiPras95 tidak bisa berbahasa Inggris dengan baik, sebaiknya belajar dulu daripada salah paham. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:28, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
