List of League of Legends voice actors[edit]

Though League of Legends is notable, there is no need for a list of voice actors. Aside from the notability issue, this article's premise violates Wikipedia:GAMEGUIDE, which is why the several previous attempts at listing out the characters and their in-game roles have been deleted, as well. IMDb covers this game's cast-- there is no need to have that information transcribed as a directory. DARTHBOTTO talk•cont 18:38, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • *Keep IMDb is an unreliable source so it should not be relied on to provide accurate information about this subject. League of Legends is so notable that participation through voice acting also would seem to be notable. Also, it is better to have this information in it's own article rather than merging and overenlarging other articles. Atlantic306 (talk) 19:06, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I would certainly not recommend having this kind of information merged into the League of Legends article-- I'm recommending this page is deleted, cut and dry. I'm not arguing that the game is not notable, as it's very much so, but having not only game guides, but cast lists for individual video games, is unprecedented. DARTHBOTTO talk•cont 19:13, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps read WP:NOTINHERITED? Just because league is notable, it does not make all the voice actors notable. TheMagikCow (T) (C) 20:11, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Arguments to avoid at deletion discussions rules out almost everything from an inclusion point of view and is a particularly biased essay while Not Inherited has been given a vast scope that was never intended from its original couple of sentances.Voice acting in a very notable production obviously gives more notability such as rs coverage than working in little known non notable productions.Atlantic306 (talk) 20:53, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Even if we were discussing the merits of the essay, what about the fact that this page is a virtual recreation of a page that was previously deleted for not being notable and for being a game guide? DARTHBOTTO talk•cont 01:55, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
League of Legends is so notable that participation through voice acting also would seem to be notable. This is a classic suggestion that because League is notable, all the voice actors are too. This goes against the WP:GNG and WP:NRVE - two of the most fundamental principles of article creation. For example, just because Barack Obama is notable, it does not mean his right arm is notable. TheMagikCow (T) (C) 11:41, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Another person agreeing that this stance seems to be centered entirely around INHERITED and not wanting to merge it into a parent article, neither being valid arguments in favor of proving stand-alone notability. As my stance below mentions too, your comments on the importance of voice acting in video games flies directly against WikiProject Video Game's current consensus, which, per WP:GAMECRUFT, generally discourages these sorts of lists existing at all, let alone as a stand-alone article.

Article about an organization, which features almost no substance beyond "it exists" and is sourced to just two pieces of relatively WP:ROUTINE local coverage with no evidence of the wider coverage that it takes to clear WP:CORPDEPTH.

Fails WP:GNG: Power management keys are rare on modern keyboards and where they do exist, they are almost always multi-function keyboards with keys for other features that are usually programmable. Unless we have an article about multi-function programmable keys (similar to Multimedia keyboard), I see no need to have an article about power management keys which are just that - especially with all of this apparent "original research" in the way and Google searches returning no useful results (purely advertising or promotional links). We have our own solutions to manage the power of Wikipedia, after all, and don't need keys to do it. ««« SOME GADGET GEEK »»» (talk) 18:02, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The "History" section on the main Nickelodeon article does not summarize any of the network's history beyond the early '80s, and the contents of the separate history page are much shorter than the "History" sections on comparable articles like CBS. Doesn't warrant its own page. OpenYourEyes2 (talk) 17:59, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Main article is already overly long as it is, so merging this back in would make that article overly weighty. With 37 refs this is a WP:SOFIXIT case of improving the later parts from 'fanboy' tone, not outright deletion. Nate • (chatter) 21:25, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Of course! This company is a major television network (once that I watched as a child). With hundreds of shows released, an article covering the company's history is useful. I don't think the fact that the Nickelodeon article currently covers the history from the 1980s onward is a good reason to delete it. On the contary, it should be expanded instead. One citation that might be used to expand the article is The History of Nickolodeon timeline, found at the following url: https://www.timetoast.com/timelines/the-history-of-nickelodeon. Bmbaker88 (talk) 23:07, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The history section of the main article certainly does need work to better summarize this content, but folding it back into the already-pretty-long main article doesn't seem like the right move. There looks to be enough by way of sources and content to justify a stand-alone history article. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:35, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - per above 'keep' comments, notable network, issue of main Nickelodeon article being fairly long. Merging them is an option but would make Nickelodeon nearly 100k bytes and add 5 more sections to the 10 (and 23 sub-sections of varying levels) already existing. If it isn't long enough already, that would be pushing it. --TheSandDoctor (talk) 20:20, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Chrissymad: I'm happy to explain myself here - the Speedy was first declined by me, when the article was at this stage, because I was hoping the article creator would be able to flesh out the claims they had made.

  • Merge to Fort Valley State University#Athletics and redirect. Clearly not notable for a stand-alone article, but searching on Fort Valley Health and Physical Education Complex turns up plenty of hits (mostly passing mention of events being held there). It seems to be an important part of the university and should be mentioned there. MB 03:18, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Really? Why the heck would we redirect the entirely generic term "Health and Physical Education Complex" to a specific article on a school? If it were "Foo Health and Physical Education Complex", I would have boldly redirected it and been done with it. Merging would be inserting the jist of the one sentence that this article consists of into the school's article. But a redirect, for lack of a more elegant term, is just plain dumb. Frankly, MB, your position makes no sense whatsoever and will only serve to prolong this. John from Idegon (talk) 04:12, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Because that seems to be its WP:Commonname. I found things like " Handicapped parking is available near the Health and Physical Education Complex and Wildcat Commons residence halls" and "children and seniors flocked to FVSU’s Health and Physical Education Complex" or a shortened form "HPE Complex (New Gym)". Some cases append the university as "The Health and Physical Education Complex-Fort Valley State University". It may sound generic to you but that is how it is named. MB 04:31, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
See also Health and Physical Education Arena, another generic sounding name that has existed as a stub for over 10 years, which should probably be handled the same way with Texas Southern University. Do you want to handle that too? MB 04:39, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that too should be handled the same way. Here's an example from a notable arena to illustrate my point. Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall, the basketball arena at Indiana University, was formerly named simply Assembly Hall (the school essentially sold naming rights, a sad sellout situation IMO, but that's a different discussion). Its article here was titled Assembly Hall (Bloomington) prior to the rename, disambiguating the generic name in the title. Anyone in Indiana would know that Assembly Hall was the gym at IU (and most still call it that), but due the generic name, its title was disambiguated. Half the name references you gave added a disambiguation, and I think it's safe to assume the others could have been disambiguated from the context of the source. If a person were to come to Wikipedia to search for info on this arena, first, given the world - wide footprint of Wikipedia, it's doubtful their search term would be this title. Second, they would probably preface the current title with the school name. So what is going to come up if they do that? The school's article! So are you proposing we move this page which we are in agreement is a non notable subject, to a different title then redirect it to an article that will come up before this one in a search? You already found one article with a very similar name, and I'd place money on the fact that there are many more buildings on college campuses world wide with similar names. A redirect in no way serves the reader. John from Idegon (talk) 04:07, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The page is averaging two views per day, and it is linked from two other articles. So people are finding it somehow. I am proposing that it be merged in the FVSU article (which surprisingly doesn't link to it), and a redirect be left - to avoid redlinks and to aid in searching if someone did look under this name. There is no need to disambiguate because there are no other titles at that name. I've searched on google, and found three others (at York College - Queens NYC, Southern University Shreveport, and Cal State San Bernadino) and none of these are mentioned in the articles on those places. I think the one at FVSU may be a little more significant than the others because it has a 5000 seat arena; it's more than a gym complex. I also found Health and Sports Center as a third similar case that should be merged to its host university as well (with a redirect for the same reasons). MB 02:40, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
With regards to the Texas Southern arena, that is a Division I basketball arena, and will be hosting Houston University games next year in addition to TSU games, so I'd argue it's notable and should not be merged. Conensus seems to be Division I basketball arenas are notable, given the significant coverage they receive. This one may be different since it's not Division I.

WP:BLP of a television meteorologist, which is written like a prosified résumé rather than an encyclopedia article and referenced entirely to primary sources with zero evidence of reliable source coverage about him in media.

Wikipedia is not a free-for-all site where anything or anyone is entitled to an article just because they exist.

  • Delete I wish we could have slightly lower inclusion standards, partly because I am convinced that Taniela B. Wakolo is actually notable. However I am going to hold off on creating an article on Wakolo until I can find some clearly non-LDS Church linked sources on him. This may take a while, since I also am not fluent in Fijian, and some may be in Fijian. However I have seen way too many overly promotional articles on people who are clearly not notable and realized we cannot adequately maintain even the articles we have with the current project participation level.

While this is a concept that would certainly qualify for an article if proper reliable sources could be added to support it, the only sources present here are Know Your Meme, Urban Dictionary and a YouTube video. And on a Google search, I can't find much improved evidence of better-quality sourcing -- the concept gets namechecked a fair bit in the news, but there's little evidence of it being the subject of media coverage. About all I can find, rather, is more unreliable sources such as Facebook and Reddit posts and more YouTube videos. As well, this is exactly the kind of topic where we have to be especially vigilant about insisting on top-quality sourcing, because it's a potential minefield of WP:POV editwarring and troll disruption. No prejudice against recreation in the future if it can be written and sourced properly, but WP:TNT pertains here if YouTube videos and Urban Dictionary are all we can do for sourcing.

Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a politician whose main claim of notability is serving in a county legislature. This is not a level of office where every person is automatically entitled to an article under WP:NPOL -- local political figures are permitted articles if they can be reliably sourced over WP:GNG, but are not entitled to an automatic presumption of notability the way state or federal legislators are. And for sourcing, all we have here is his primary source biography on the website of the county government he's a member of, with no evidence of coverage in independent sources shown at all.

If none of those sources explicitly reference "Student government party" or "Student government political party" then they're no good. We can't keep moving the goalposts here. You can't say "use this, it sounds like what the article might be about." Exemplo347 (talk) 23:39, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So rename it "campus political party".--I'm on day 4 (talk) 23:55, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That's definitely not how Wikipedia works. You can't say "My article is wrong, let's keep changing titles until someone finds references that fit that title." My suggestion to you is to work on a draft in your sandbox and submit it through the Article for Creation process. This current article (and please don't move it again) has no place on Wikipedia because its subject matter does not meet the notability guidelines. Exemplo347 (talk) 00:09, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Insisting that the exact phrase be used is odd. Talking about "parties" in the context of "student government" e.g. here should be relevant. In any case, some do say "student government party": [2], [3], [4]. Again, I'm not saying these establish notability - none are treating the topic of these parties separate from particular examples. This might be best served by folding it in to another article and I'm witholding judgement for now. I do say though that these sources show this isn't "a concept made up by the article creator" as a previous commentor said. Mortee (talk) 00:13, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's not odd to insist that an article should be about what it claims it's meant to be about. If it's the general concept of student government in the US, which is all it contains at the moment, then we have Student governments in the United States. If it's about student activism in general, we already have Student activism. We also have Students' union which includes sections on student bodies. So, tell me, what is this article going to add? Exemplo347 (talk) 00:18, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It would be about the phenomenon of political parties formed within student bodies for election to student governments, separate from student activism in general. It's possible for those to be referred to in sources without the specific substring "student government political parties". I haven't yet taken a view on whether this article should stand alone or be folded into Student governments in the United States Mortee (talk) 00:23, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well, Wikipedia's view is that there shouldn't be two articles covering the same subject matter. It's really simple, not something that requires "taking a view" - it's a straightforward policy - see WP:A10. Exemplo347 (talk) 00:26, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As with any subtopic, the question is whether there's enough to be said about this (parties in particular) that it can't be reasonably folded into the supertopic (student government). That's what I'm waiting to see as the article expands. I'll disengage from this for now and see how things stand in a few days. Mortee (talk) 00:31, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
In case the article doesn't change in those few days, it's worth noting that Student governments in the United States doesn't use "party" or "parties" at all, so A10 doesn't apply and a merge (to some degree) would be better than a pure delete if the article itself doesn't stand, to cover the fact of these student government political parties existing. Mortee (talk) 01:05, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge, but very carefully as it's a mess but has some potential merit (per Bearian, above).

Article created by apparent COI editor (see use of "we" in edit summary). PRODded with reason "Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." DePRODded by article creator with reason "We are indexed in DOAJ, BASE and EBSCO. Also, we are indexed in minior bases like World Cat or I2R. We received result from preevaluation proces for Scopus base. I can send you their possitive answer. Definitly, we will apply for Scopus in September." DOAJ, BASE, and EBSCO are not selective databases in the sense of NJournals (and WorldCat and I2R even less so). If the journal gets included in Scopus, the article could be recreated but at this point, this is definitely too soon. PROD reason therefore still stands, hence: delete.

If it is necessary, I will send you pfd file with pre-evaluation results. This month we bought doi numbers and that is a reason why we are waiting for September. Also, in 2019 we will apply for Web of Sciences. If you have more information about citation our journal, I will send you results next week.In that results you can see that our journal is cite in a lot of journals indexed in the best bases like WoS or Scopus.

In that moment, Wikipedia pages will not be necessary for use, but today is important to have Wikipedia page.

For large-scale awards programs such as the Grammies or the Oscars where awards are presented in many categories, the most useful presentation is for us to have a separate article about each year's ceremony that lists the winners in all categories for that year and a separate article about each category which lists the winners across the years in that category. Each category does not need to separately clear WP:GNG on its own separately from the fact that the overall awards program has already cleared GNG, because the category is not really a standalone topic — the burden of clearing GNG is on the Grammy Awards as a whole, not on each individual category. The separate by-year and by-category articles are a formatting choice; we spin off the separate subpages in order to keep the parent article at a manageable size, not because each category is really a truly standalone topic independently of the Grammies as a whole. Yes, there's some potential for this to be improved, but it should be kept — because if it doesn't exist, then where is a user supposed to go to (a) compare the winners across the years in which it was presented, or (b) find any information about why it stopped being presented after 1960? If this category had been presented only once, then we could justifiably redirect it to the article for that year — but if it was presented more than once, then there's an WP:XY competition between the years.

This was previously kept on procedural grounds as the nominator turned out to be a sockpuppet.

This article is an obvious autobiography. It has only two real editors, both of whom have no contributions to Wikipedia outside this topic. The article has superficial referenciness, but the sources are all churnalism - press releases masquerading as news (or in some cases not even masquerading, as PR Newswire is cited).

There are trivial mentions in some sources, but the primary claim to notability appears to be an award from Natural News, which is a bit like being given an Andrew Wakefield Prize for vaccine research.

  • Delete Majority of the article is based upon WP:OR. The reliable secondary sources included in the article either barely mention him in passing, but more often doesn't mention him at all and merely used to fill in with side trivia. -Xcuref1endx (talk) 22:26, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete A few of the references that I checked show either no mention of the subject of this article, or only an in-passing mention.

There's also this source from The Philippine Star (one of the Philippines' top three newspapers) and apparently some coverage by the Philippine Daily Inquirer (one of the other "Big Three" papers). His acting roles don't seem to be that big yet, but given the coverage I've found, he probably passes our notability guidelines, if only by the slimmest of margins.

Delete. WP:BLP of a musician, whose strongest claim to passing WP:NMUSIC is being a "featured" artist on other musicians' recordings (i.e. not a strong claim at all) and with no strong reliable source coverage about him in media. The sourcing here is almost entirely a mixture of primary sources and blogs -- there are just two sources here (Exclaim! and HipHopDX, #11 and #14) that count for anything at all toward getting him over WP:GNG, and both of them are blurbs rather than substantive coverage. No prejudice against recreation if and when he starts garnering a lot more reliable source coverage than this, but right now it's WP:TOOSOON. Bearcat (talk) 17:32, 18 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence this software is notable. Lack of any references to independent reliable sources. I looked for references myself in Google News, Google Books, Google Scholar, could find nothing. Most of what a web search turns up is just the vendor's own website, also some hits on sites with low threshold for inclusion (such as download.cnet.com and software.informer.com) and some reseller websites (componentsource.com), but nothing which is high quality and independent of the vendor to indicate that this software is notable.

Minor protest with only local news coverage. — JFG talk 07:40, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, but move to March Against Hate and expand the article's scope to include Seattle (source, source, source), San Antonio (source, source, Stevens Point (source), Pittsburgh (source), etc. I already had plans to expand the scope of this article beyond just Portland, but I seem to never be given more than a couple hours to work on an article before it's nominated for deletion. User:JFG, it would be really helpful if you'd be willing to let articles develop, or express your concerns on the talk page before immediately nominating every Trump-related article being created. But, here we are, so I hope editors will take time to consider this article expansion instead of voting to merge/delete solely based on this Portland content. ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:01, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to develop articles before putting them out there, use the Draft space. This will avoid drama. Note that I did support you when you recently expanded an article that had been quickly pushed to AfD. However, when you create weaker stubs in article space, you are setting yourself up for criticism. — JFG talk 18:28, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, well, it would have been nice to have more time to work on the article before AfD, because now I can't move the page and expand its scope until this discussion ends. This could have been solved by simply moving the page or posting a note on the article's talk page. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:50, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect per Another Believer. Frankly this could have been done with a merge tag with less drama than an AfD. Montanabw(talk) 03:00, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I've started expanding the article's scope in an attempt to illustrate how and why I think this article should be saved. I cannot move the article to March Against Hate while this discussion is ongoing, but my goal is to have a parent article with section for related demonstrations. I've moved Portland details to a section, listed a few cities in the lead, and look forward to expanding this list of cities and their respective sections soon. ---Another Believer (Talk) 05:43, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • @JFG: I'd like for you to please consider withdrawing this nomination. I'd like to move the article to March Against Hate and expand the article appropriately. Currently, this discussion is preventing me from being able to do so. Thanks, ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:44, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I would recommend working on Draft:March Against Hate, and meanwhile letting the discussion about the Portland march run its course. In reply to Montanabw, I will note that there was no article to merge to when I nominated this one for deletion (unless you meant to merge it with the generic Protests against Donald Trump article). — JFG talk 14:59, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@JFG: I shouldn't need to move content to the draft space and allow the deletion of this page, when it can simply be moved... But you prefer to let this discussion run its course, so that's fine, I just had to ask. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:09, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, it's fine to expand the contents while the discussion is ongoing. Editors will be able to decide whether the expanded article is worth keeping, independently of the title. If the article is kept, it will be moved. — JFG talk 15:15, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Are there national sources? Otherwise the vast majority of this coverage appears to be local, which makes the article a coat rack for minutiae of local events rather than a singular national event czar 17:42, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Czar: I'm not sure yet. I'm still working on other Trump articles that have been nominated for deletion/merge (hard to keep up!), not to mention, it's hard to motivate myself to work on articles marked for deletion. (Then again, this may be the reason certain editors are nominating many Trump-related articles as soon as they are created.) But IF there is a lack of sourcing describing a single national "March Against Hate" campaign, how do you feel about a more general article called "Marches against hate"? Don't we need an article to document these related demonstrations? ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:59, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Based on the sourcing, these marches appear to be more anti-Trump than anything else, I would recommend covering them in the existing Protests against Donald Trump, whereby they can split out summary style. czar 23:10, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Czar: Interestingly, the rally in Stevens Point, Wisconsin had nothing to do with Trump. More research is needed to develop a more thorough list of "marches against hate" and determine if there are enough connections to justify an article about Marches against hate. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:14, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That would make it a local protest with only local coverage unless it's linked to something broader. In any event, I'd ask for the page to be incubated in draftspace if the sourcing wasn't compiled but could be, potentially. czar 21:09, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be fine with a move to the draft space. I'd move the page myself but cannot do so until this AfD discussion closes. ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:44, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Deprodded with the rationale: "easily passes WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR and a 10-year career makes it hardly WP:TOOSOON". And the other editor is correct, it is not a case of WP:TOOSOON, I was attempting to give the benefit of the doubt. The actor has had a single significant role, in Noble Aspirations. That's it. Every other role is not that significant. The one other exception would have been The Legend of Qin, but he didn't appear in that film, he was voiceover talent for the animated production. Onel5969 TT me 02:32, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: his roles in TV shows, for example Noble Aspirations, are also significant, so he passes WP:NACTOR.

This is a witch-hunt by Jonathan Joshua. I suggest users visit the Talk page of the article and then come to their own conclusions. There are 35 references to credible and professional media outlets and publications all from 2015 onwards. Any connection to a Wikipedia article that may or may not have been made many years ago have no bearing. Any links to blogs by anonymous people have no bearing either. We can only focus on information from credible, independent, published sources. Professoremeritus (talk) 07:46, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
On his user page Joshua Jonathan has derogatory references to the Buddha and has also been accused of having a bias against Indian spiritual leaders like Yogi Adityanath, a potential successor to Narendra Modi. This may also be fueling his agenda-driven crusade. Have requested meditation and welcome Arbitration as well. Professoremeritus (talk) 14:33, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The article reads like a fansite; it is (self?)promotional, making a fuzz about Zenji's "accomplishments," while nearly verbatim copying the talking points from his various websites. His main claim to notability, as far as it regards press coverage, is his work as a Buddhist chaplain at the Paralympics. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 14:49, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
How can it read like a fansite when you, Jonathan Joshua were the one to create the main portion? NONE of the personal websites have been listed or quoted from. The article has a neutral AP tone and only references credible, 3rd party, published sources like newspapers. His work has been written about at the Panam Games, Parapan Am Games, Rio Olympics and Paralympics and there are 35 credible links pointing to this. He has also been written about due to his work for the rights of Dalits and Untouchables. A wiki editor's job is not to have a personal agenda byt to be fair and balanced.

  • Delete Overly promotional material making extraordinary claims not backed by reliable sources. Being the chaplain of any given religion at any given sporting event is just no where near a sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:47, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • 'Keep' The article should obviously stay as the subject does indeed meet the standards of being notable. The Times of India is a very credible source and refers to him as "an eminemt and international thinker" in at least 3 articles that are easily found in google. The National Post has written 2 articles about how his museum was the "biggest attraction" at Panam which was the largest event ever held in Canada. That is notable. Dozens of newspapers have reported that he has been instrumental in bringing televisiom coverage of the Paralympics in India which is very notable and relevant. Being the first Westerner to speak for the rights of so-called "Untouchables" at Diksabhumi is extremely notable - especially as that event is attended by millions, literally. This is not "just a chaplain at a sporting event". There are many actors who are not notable, and some who are. Many chaplains are not notable, this one clearly is. He also conducted the first marriage in an Olympic Village. This is notable. He sailed with an athlete and won a silver medal at Panam Games. That is notable. All of the media links are from well known and leading media, albeit in India. I find it quite concerning that anyone could dismiss such serious and reliable media reports as "not reliable". It seems to me that for some editors, "reliable" only means Western media and that is not correct. All of the links are reliable links. The Times of India probably has a bigger circulation that most Western newspapers and has done several stories on him. I am also concerned that the editor Jonathan Joshua who started this campaign against this article is the same one who edited it and at that time he did not find it worthy of deletion. It is also concerning that Jonathan Joshua apparently had a "Smash the Buddha" image and caption on his profile and is targeting a Buddhist leader. The words "Smash the Buddha" are considered "hate speech" in many jurisdictions that Wikipedia operates in including India, Nepal, Thailand and Sri Lanka etc. There is no justification even if some small sect advocatees such language as it is against the law and actionable - I will explain the legal reasoning on the talk page of the article itself. The fact that a seemingly senior Wikpedia editor like Jonathan Joshua can hold such views and be allowed to edit Buddhist themed article, is very concerning and technically makes Wikipedia liable which is very serious. I hope some unbiased Wikipedia editors can look into this, or new editors that are not biased one way or another can add their fair and balanced opinions. I will leave some more thoughts on the Talk Page of the article itself. Artbitration (talk) 00:32, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Have made a few important points on the Talk page of the Zenji article itself to explain how Joshua Jonthan has broken hate laws as well as libel laws in his edits on this article - which is very serious since Joshua is a senior Wikipedia editor. Have also pointed it out that an often repeated criticism of Wikipedia is that most of the edits are only done by mostly Western males. This article deals with very sensitive issues such as the rights of Dalits as well as people with disabilities in India. Clearly editors with an Indian background should be consulted as they would have the necessary sensitivity to the serious issues as well as knowledge of the clear "reliability" of the Indian newspapers cited. It is unfortunate that such an inspirational and well-sourced article is being attacked this way.Artbitration (talk) 01:33, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
See also diff and Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Legal threats at Talk:Zenji Nio. See further this quote from zenji.org, for Zenji's view of himself:
"The sutras make it clear that when the Lord Buddha returns as Maitreya, He will be born to a Brahmin Buddhist family. Above all, in the Lotus Sutra is says that paramparo or lineage based schooling is the highest schooling and that all Heavenly Buddhas have Bharadwaj Gotra which is the exact same gotra of Zenji's lineage! Therefore, Zenji's responsibility and role as a Brahmin-Buddhist Acharya is of incalculable significance (the term Acharya itself was originally for the exclusive use of Zenji's lineage - a tradition that India upholds to this day)."

  • Comment. This is a recreation of a deleted article about the same person; Zenji Nio alias Zen Acharya. JimRenge (talk) 20:12, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This has certainly gotten complicated. I knew this article smelled bad the first time I saw it. Yes, it had some references in seemingly reliable sources like the National Post and the Times of India. It seemed the figure had achieved some recognized status. But the name Zenji Nio was suspicious and photo searches confirmed it: Zenji Nio is the same person as Zenji Acharya (or Zen Acharya) (see images here and here), who has been the center of continued disruption on Wikipedia for many years. In 2011-12, a person or persons related to Acharya had peppered Wikipedia with articles and references to Acharya (including the article JimRenge mentions), to his supposed museum, to his supposed film, and in support of his particular and dubious religious doctrines (which focuses on Buddhist Brahmins, Nio Zen, etc.). One article created from this was Niō Zen, which has since been turned into a redirect. All this came to the surface in part through the AfD Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Karma:_The_New_Revolution. That AfD experienced what this AfD has as well: the sudden appearance of new SPA's participating in the AfD with grand claims about discrimination and intolerance. In that case, it became clear that these were sockpuppets: see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Buddhakahika/Archive. Since then, Buddhahahika's sockpuppets have appeared repeatedly to disrupt Wikipedia, spouting the same religious views using bad sources. While I will leave it to the SPI to determine if the accounts that created this article are sockpuppets of Buddhakahika, it is very clear to me that they are in the least meat puppets engaged in supporting the same person. Yes, it seems like the article has a few good sources and yes it seems this person has done something that a few news sources have reported. But I have noted that some of the use of these sources is blatant POV editing, such as changing the content of quotes (see my correction [11]). I also recall that the original Karma: The New Revolution article also had some sources from The Times of India, reporting about some splendid film that, through hard searches, turned out never to exist. It seems that some of those sources may have been the result of the ability to manipulate media sources on the part of Acharya; I can't help but think some of that is the case here, too. In the end, given the history of this person--and again, Nio is Acharya--and the way Wikipedia has been long abused by supporters of this person, I must conclude that this article should be deleted. If there is an argument for notability, I would say that in the least, this article is so thoroughly tainted that it has to be dynamited and begun from scratch by truly third-person editors. Michitaro (talk) 03:06, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • 'Keep': You are holding against him what others wrote about him 6 years ago! Is this fair? This almost seems surreal. The sources are credible and the work meets the notability guidelines. Whether or not he was involved in a film on Karma years ago or whether any fan sites talk about his lineage etc has no bearing on this article. All the article should be concerned about is --- what is cited from the reliable 3r party sources -- not what was written about some other article 6 years ago or what some fan site writes. As per your suggestion, I will try to re-edit it taking out any and all references that may be seen as controversial. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Professoremeritus (talk • contribs) 23:47, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As you can see with the SPI archive on Buddhakahika, users associated with this person have been disturbing Wikipedia repeatedly for over five years, leading to over 30 SPI investigations, several happening each year. They have uncovered well over 100 sockpuppets. This is a continuing assault on Wikipedia, not some past occurrence. Michitaro (talk) 00:23, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The article does cite a number of news articles, but the ones I checked, they are just reporting a press conference where "a city NGO" complained about lack of TV coverage about another event, and it so happens that at this press conference Zenji Nio was present. This not only meets WP:1E if we are generous, it is closer to "zero event" because that press conference covered by many articles are not "intellectually independent of each other" and actually presents the views of "Suchandra Ganguly" far more than Zenji Nio. I am surprised that the article creator did not bother to pitch an article on Suchandra Ganguly (to the little I checked), but has been trying too hard to keep one for Zenji Nio. We must take press conferences with a grain of salt, as they are a sort of news-placement, generally of non-notable issue that journalists wouldn't rush to. They don't make the speakers or the journalists at that event notable. I see no persuasive reason to keep this article, and strong persuasive reasons to delete it. Plus WP:SALT it given the repeated attempts per @Michitaro's comment above. Yes, something notable occurs in future, an admin can always unsalt it. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 00:58, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • So you just discount that the Times of India calls him a "noted and eminent thinker" who is invited to lecture at a mjor university in India? It shows he is notable for more than just being a chaplain. And if someone with over 100 socks vandalizes a page, is the subject of the page to be held responsible? And many independent films do not get released. If he worked on a film with Bob Thurman that did not get a major release, its reason to doubt the Times of India? I got involved when my edits on the Lotus Sutra were just overturned. It seems a few editors, all known to each other, can just make decisions as they please and with due respect, it seems someone is "trying too hard" to delete this article. All this time there was no question of notability, now suddenly there is. All this time there seemed to be consensus even with Jim and Joshua that the work with the Olympians, BBC is noteworthy and now suddenly that's discounted too? So 30 reliable sources still don't make someone notable? And I noticed the same thing with my edits on the Lotus Sutra. Somehow Paul Williams quote should be in the top section but the other quotes should be moved. And the same editors always involved. If only there was a way to engage editors who are not from the Buddhist section, there will be more fairness here. Professoremeritus (talk) 01:25, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An unneeded disambiguation page, from what I can see.

  • I'm a veteran at Afd but I think this is the first disambiguation page I've ever nominated for deletion, so I'll keep a close watch on this one, to ensure that I've understood policy correctly. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:52, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hi Shawn (@Shawn in Montreal:), I originally created this page because in 2006 I had gone through WP in search of the "Rainbow Tribe," (a cultural phenomenon largely from the 60s and 70s), and instead only found an article titled Rainbow Family. Myself as a child of the 60s, I had often then heard the term "Rainbow Tribe," so I created a redirect for the term, then pointing to the Rainbow Family. Now it appears that there are probably two major articles on essentially the same subject, one at Rainbow Family, and one at Rainbow Gathering, which at first glance, it appears that they might be better off merged.
This disambiguation page has since apparently changed significantly from my original redirect, and now appears to have been entirely created by others in a somewhat haphazard fashion, apparently attempting to clarify the relationship between the much larger Rainbow Gathering movement, and the many who came after it and apparently attempted to co-opt the name for less notable uses. Suggestion: First, check to see the page traffic. I would be willing to bet you that it is quite heavy, because there are lots of folks apparently in this still quite active movement. In order to help the largest number of folks, don't delete this page, but improve it. The relationship between the two major articles should be resolved, and this page should be preserved to resolve all of the obvious confusion that seems to still surround this group. If you would like to work together with me on this "cleanup process," I would be happy to do so. If instead, you might still prefer to do anything else with this page, I will say no further on it. Thanks, Scott P. (talk) 19:12, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hi Shawn and Scott, I agree with Scott that, depending on the age or background of the person writing/searching, they may use "Rainbow Tribe" more than "Rainbow Family" when referring to the group described in the article by the latter name. I'm not particularly attached to working on the disambig, but I think a disambig is better-suited than just a simple redirect to the "Family" article. There are also some LGBT groups, and new age groups unrelated to the Rainbow Family group but inspired by the fakelore, who are, at least informally, using "Rainbow Tribe" in names or nicknames for their groups, so, there may be more entries to add here before too long.
I also concur that Rainbow Family and Rainbow Gathering are practically duplicates and may be best merged. When I saw the AfD notice, I actually assumed that's what this was going to be about. Best, - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 20:01, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep User:CorbieVreccan suggests that "Rainbow Tribe" is an alternative name for Rainbow Family, but that is not suggested in the disambiguation page currently and it is not stated in the article. It would be better if someone would edit the article to say "also known as "Rainbow Tribe"" perhaps even with a source having that usage. And the disambiguation page entry should be revised to show:
  • Rainbow Family, a group committed to principles of non-violence and non-hierarchical egalitarianism, also known as Rainbow Tribe
Then we'd all be happy, and future readers/editors would not wonder why the Family item is on the disambiguation page. I'll vote "Keep" because that's what I think is fair based on what was said here, although I am not myself familiar with these terms. --doncram 03:57, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thinking this over again, and reading the discussion here, "Rainbow Tribe" as a term for hippie enviros (or psuedo-enviros, depending on who you talk to) who may or may not be connected to the hippie party group "The Rainbow Family of Living Light" and their "Rainbow Gatherings" may be a flash in the pan trend on social media and in certain circles. I'm not sure it can be adequately sourced. It's a social media and subculture usage. I'm not for rewriting the articles or trying to make it encyclopedic when it may be already falling out of fashion. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 18:03, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looking behind the issues the article has the subject appears not to meet (WP:BIO and/ WP:GNG.. Notability is claimed based on a vast array of entertainment & pageant roles but none of her acting roles appear major and a search of Google, Google News and Newspapers.com is failing to provide any reliable source material indicating significant coverage. The name is somewhat generic so I also searched with combinations of Miss Alabama USA, Miss USA, Price is Right and Men in Black but still failed to find anything.

It seems I have unintentionally created quite an uproar here. I just want to take this opportunity to straighten out a few misconceptions and issues.

Firstly, I am Ms. Brooks' biggest fan!

I do not work for PaigeBrooks.com and the Paige Brooks article that I created 10 years ago is in no way affiliated with PaigeBrooks.com. I created it because I thought it was appropriate for this forum due to her level of recognition and honors.

Ms. Brooks' management team has been very kind to allow me to post photos, awards, etc. with their permission, when I asked. If you have any questions or want to confirm this information that I am providing, you can contact them. They are very nice. I contact them through the email address that is publicly available on the official website.

I am certainly and obviously not an expert at Wikipedia (this is the only Wikipedia article that I have ever done). I am not at all familiar with the guidelines and hope this is the correct way to get in touch with other users and administrators who have been taking issue of late.

Only now, after a recent update, have I realized that the manner in which I originally wrote the article and subsequent updates are not completely within the guidelines of your community. Luckily, through the years, I can see some of your experienced Wikipedia users have corrected my many mistakes and vastly improved the article.

The newest improvements are especially impressive. After 10 years of the article having my incorrect-for-Wikipedia writing style, I am happy to see that it meets the Wikipedia standards now.

I want to apologize for any previous, although unintended, guideline missteps. I never meant to upset anyone, although I am afraid some of my actions may have done so. I did not realize that those actions were breaking the rules. Most importantly, I do not want my mistakes to reflect on Ms. Brooks in any way.

I hope this note helps clarify things and that the article can continue to be included in Wikipedia now that it has been so vastly changed and improved, despite my inadequacies at creating and editing. Even after a decade, it is never too late to get things right. :)

I vote to keep the Paige Brooks article with the current, existing improvements.

Thank you for your understanding. missalusa (talk · contribs)

With all these sources including books, articles, and online sources the article subject passes WP:GNG, and has crossed the threshold of notability. This is not a one event situation since she has done several other reported and discussed things since her pageant win, including a named role in a major film, a continued role on popular tv show price is right, as well as being voted top 25 in vegas, plus the minor imdb award. I will continue to research her but @PageantUpdater you were right, many of the citations were misleading and did not verify statements in the article.

    • All these sources are either passing mentions or extremely unreliable. See our reliable sourcing guidelines. Prevan (talk) 13:49, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Agree with Prevan. Antionioatrylia has done an amazing job transforming the article but I feel it only lays more bare the paucity of significant coverage in reliable sources. One is a listing of all Miss Alabama USA titleholders from the official website, two are little more than image galleries, she does get a brief mention in one article but it's passing at best. As for the book references, I think there's good reason to question whether they even support what they've been cited for given the issues with many of the other citations. The most promising is the magazine but that again is just a brief mention in a list of "25 hottest people" which surely can't get her past GNG. BIO1E isn't at play here, I've always been firm in my opinion that these bios are about more than one event (and even more so here given the but part in Men in Black & appearing on Price is Right) but GNG just isn't met. Same conclusion I made when I nominated the article and hunted for any other coverage. --- PageantUpdater (talk) 14:00, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Arguing that the book references might be questionable given the issues with many other citations, PageantUpdater said, there's good reason to question whether they even support what they've been cited for given the issues with many of the other citations. I can assure you that I read the source materials, and there is no questionability at all. It seems a poor argument and failing to show AGF to even make such a statement. Maybe try reading the sources yourself. I stand by my discussion points and my !vote in this matter. Antonioatrylia (talk) 15:16, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Antonioatrylia, I only suggested that because when I click the links to "Your Modeling Career: You Don't Have to Be a Superstar to Succeed" and "Screen World 2003" they both only show me the front cover and not the inside of the book. I'm curious as to how you were able to read the source materials, because I would be interested in doing the same? As you are well aware we've had to remove references from the article because, in your own words we've had to remove references because they don't cover what they are supposed to be referencing, eg "information statement not verified or even mentioned in reference". My point was simply that it's frustrating we can't get inside the books to confirm whether the information that's being sourced to that material is actually contained within it. That's a separate issue to my belief that none of the source material remaining or available on Google and a number of reference sites show significant coverage in reliable sources. --- PageantUpdater (talk) 22:59, 21 March 2017 (UTC

Not sure which browser you are using or what @PageantUpdater. The model book by D Press had a 3 1/2 to 4 page article. Even if it says there is no ebook availABLE, if you do sequential searches in the book, you can read large sections and chapters of books online. The best chance is google book search. Also if available download the free preview which may have what you might be looking for. If that does not help, I go ahead and buy the ebooks. Again, I assure you both of those two book references are solid, and support the statements which they cite.You can take me at my word. I spent like two hours on the article and did many searches. That one editor changed all our positive work today putting back most of the primary and unreliable sources we removed. I reverted back to your last stable version. I asked them not to add thAT stuff back in without first discussing it on the talk page in accordance with WP:BRD. Please keep an eye out there. Thanks.

  • Redirect to Miss Alabama USA Sorry, but the sources are essentially barrel scraping. Many are also not reliable. For example,
  • Press, D. (2004). Your Modeling Career: You Don't Have to Be a Superstar to Succeed. Allworth Press - This is an independent publisher and the source is essentially self publihed
  • Willis, J.; Monush, B. (2004). Screen World 2003. John Willis Screen World. Hal Leonard. p. 80. ISBN 978-1-55783-526-0. - Screen world is essentially a directory recording films/events of the year

  • Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2017 April 1. —cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 04:36, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: With redirect as an alternative. Comments: This is a WP:BLP. Notability: The subject is not notable for a standalone article per WP:GNG and other reasons. The references for notability and for article content are not there. While I can appreciate passion, and someone being a BIG FAN, that ultimately means bias and when that is present no amount of WP:policies and guidelines will will be persuasive. Because WP:OTHERSTUFF exists is a feeble argument as best. We use reliable sources and present what those sources state, and anything else is WP:OR. We can not use a self-published source for notability, nor primary sources, or those that are too close to the subject. This is on any article and BLP's are held to a higher standard.
    • There is an advanced misconception floating around concerning deletion versus redirect, versus !vote to keep. Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Redirection gives an alternative to deletion and a !vote to redirect is still a !vote that the article does not belong, but might have a place somewhere else. Trying to "NOT-count" comments supporting redirect, or somehow explain that a redirect is separate so there appears to be no consensus is a fallacy.
This article is unsuitable for standalone status. There are seven editors that have !voted to delete, redirect, or a combination. There are 3 keeps !votes, including one weak-keep, and if ALL the arguments on both sides were valid there is still a 2.33 to 1 ratio that the article does not deserve standalone status and is certainly already a clear community view.
Being a #1 fan of a subject is great but does not help notability, and calling the subject, or a representative, would not help as that is not a published reference and would be a primary self-reference, and WP:OR. References: Intentional---or unintentional (in good faith) ref-bombing is superficial. Primary references do not count towards notability nor adding a local reference to a Miss baby diaper pageant. IMDb is not acceptable as a reference, and why it is used, if at all, in the external links section.
Back to the BLP issue, since BLP articles are held to a higher standard, references should be high-quality, not questionable, and the page number needs to be included. Having an "official" website does not confer notability and content like; "Her philanthropy and volunteerism extend to her church, Junior League, animal rescue, and medical/legal advocate for the ill.", is certainly OR when not referenced, and when referenced with an "official" webpage, belonging to the subject or any organization too close to the subject, is improper (not an acceptable reference and why it belongs in the "External links" section), and just WP:puffery to try to justify notability just as adding sections, with two lines of content double spaced, to make it appear there is more substance. The subject apparently won a single pageant which means it should have a place in the parent article. I argued, and lost to consensus, the keeping of an article on a "bit-part" actor because there was just not enough notability for an article even with several tiny parts in movies or commercials.
As it stands now there is "clear consensus" for delete or redirect. A redirect will preserve the history so this can be argued into possible non-existence or "saved somewhere. Otr500 (talk) 11:04, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Not exactly sure how you could come to that conclusion Otr500. As I read down the list of !votes during this discussion, a cursory count is delete - 2, strong delete - 1, keep - 2, week keep - 1, redirect - 2 . Although I am aware that the closing admin gives weight or non-weight to each editor's discussion points, I say it is a little to early to reach any definite conclusion other than perhaps no consensus. Perhaps more discussion is needed to be able to form a true consensus. Antonioatrylia (talk) 13:16, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
With all due respect and not trying to be too funny, your math might be worse than mine. There have been exactly 10 editors weighing in so you have either miscounted or chosen to discount some !votes.
You are right that an admin will weigh the contents of !votes and will do so based on policies and guidelines. A comment is not discounted because it does not directly link to any of these just if the rationale has substance based on relevance. In trying to determine notability of a WP:BIO an editor (and admin) has basic criteria to consider. This includes: "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.".
If the "depth of coverage" is lacking one may consider, "then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability.". This would establish a base-line for notability. We can dig deeper in trying to defend article retention by additional criteria of "Any biography", and "Entertainers". Articles on "People notable for only one event" almost always ends up with a Pseudo-biographies. This is one of my concerns and having to add possible use of IMDb, that is not an acceptable source, to try to bolster notability, and "primary sources" (...may be used to support content in an article, but they do not contribute toward proving the notability of a subject.), is just trying to save an article because we like it. Expanding an article, in hopes the effort will be a notice that the article is salvageable, when there is still a lack of reliable sources, just introduces WP:OR at worse and trivial and actually unsubstantiated content at best, evidenced by the self-promoted Philanthropy section and content. We can "grasp at straws" but ultimately a lack of actual notability is just that, which can't be fixed with additional edits. When this is apparent should we delete, merge, or redirect. The later ---at this time--- is evident. Otr500 (talk) 11:27, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose As a college president, he was an advocate for rejecting federal aid in order to retain independence. He's quoted in the New York Times about it here and he wrote an opinion piece for The Federalist here.
    He also filed suit on behalf of his college to oppose the contraceptive mandate in the ACA. Please see this article from the Caspar Star-Tribune.
    After that he was appointed to be executive v.p. of the Texas Public Policy Foundation. His appointment was covered in the Caspar Tribune (same article) and in the Austin Business Journal here.
    He's interviewed about prison reform on a Texas radio station (KFYO) here.

This is a blogger whose content is sometimes used elsewhere. The Huffington post ref is simply a listing of her contributions and makes no claim to establishing notability. Two others are plugs for her book. I can't see any evidence of notability here. Fails WP:GNG  Velella  Velella Talk   20:31, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete not enough indepdent, 3rd party sources discussing her in detail to establish notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:49, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'm exceedingly confused by the rationale behind this nomination. User:Velella's description of Vowel as 'a blogger whose content is sometimes used elsewhere' ignores her published book, and the maths around the references do not make sense. As Velella says, three of the sources do not necessarily establish notability - and they are neither intended to nor expected to, since the notability guideline requires only two reliable sources. Such sources are in the article; a CBC article is not a 'plug for her book' but a discussion of her and her work, in some detail, which is precisely the sort of reference the notability guideline accepts, as is the Eastern Door article (for r eference for those who may not know, the Eastern Door is the newspaper of record for the Mohawk people of the Haudenosaunee). The Kirkus Review source is a book review, very different from a plug, and entirely acceptable for an author. If interviews with authors and book reviews are 'plugs' you're going to have to delete an extremely large number of author biographies! I'm including a couple more reviews and interviews but really, I do not understand why this nomination was made - nor User:Johnpacklambert's rationale (exactly how many third-party sources are necessary, if two are insufficient?). Xuháska (talk) 05:16, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Xuháska I'm not certain where you get the idea that merely two sources are required as the guidelines clearly state "There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected." Even if two was the magic number, it would still come down to quality and depth of coverage. The CBC source is an interview. Interviews are not automatically reliable sources and must be shown to be independent of the subject (which in this case is true), the source has editorial standards (does it promote the subject in a non-objective way? -- again, the CBC sources is fine for this), and whether the interview is in-depth and/or scholarly. It's a very short interview so that's up for debate. As for the review, the link seems to be broken so it's impossible to evaluate but critical reviews are fine as sources, but if that's the only source available that would indicate a lack of in-depth and widespread coverage. The nominator's rationale is not incorrect. There are three sources, with only two possibly being useful, but they both have problems. I'm not saying I believe this should be deleted but we can't just throw around assumed "rules" without examining what they actually say and how the sources may or may not satisfy policy and guidelines. freshacconci (✉) 17:33, 30 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Freshacconci: where are there 3 sources? The article contains ten. I just picked out the best 3 as part of this discussion. For what it's worth, both review links work for me. Xuháska (talk) 05:04, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'd still like to see a couple more media sources if possible — the QWF award nomination, in particular, should be sourced to a media article rather than to the QWF's own press release of its shortlist — but CBC News, the Winnipeg Free Press, Kirkus Reviews and Eastern Door are all perfectly acceptable sources. Book reviews in reliable and well-established publications do count toward a writer's notability — amateur book reviews on blogs and GoodReads and Amazon wouldn't assist, but if reliable sources are publishing professional critical reviews of her work then notability is demonstrated by those reviews. Note, for the record, that I was the nominator of the WP:TOOSOON and entirely primary sourced first version — and I'm satisfied that this version has properly addressed the reasons why I listed the original iteration for AFD.

Fails WP:LISTCRITERIA, WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:OR. Narky Blert (talk) 20:46, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question is there something about this list in particular that makes it worth deleting, or are lists of films by genre in general arbitrary in your view (perhaps better handled by categories)? I ask because there are several such lists gathered at Template:Lists of films by genre and I'm wondering if it would be inconsistent to delete just one. On the other hand, if you wanted to delete all of them that seems like a bigger change than a single AfD could reasonably cover, so perhaps an RfC would be a better way to go. Mortee (talk) 22:03, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I may have opened a can of worms here. I nominated this article only because I fell across it, as containing an ambiguous link to a DAB page. (1) I'm a big fan of categories: if an article contains persuasive evidence that it belongs in a category, well so it should be. (2) I am no a fan at all of open-ended lists, especially ones with poor WP:LISTCRITERIA. They are open to abuse. Entries in them are of four kinds. (a) Bluelinks, all well and good. (b) Redlinks, where it looks like someone should write the article. (So, why not do so now, rather than add cruft to a list article? (c) Redlinks, where a search seems to show that the topic is not notable. (Those can be difficult. Proving that an unwritten article is about a non-notable subject is hard work.) (d) Bluelinks to DAB pages. Those combine the problems of (b) and (c). Narky Blert (talk) 00:14, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:NOTESAL because it is incredibly easy to find lists of romance films in secondary sources that can be pulled together for Wikipedia's list (at minimum) and because there is precedent on Wikipedia to have lists of films under a particular genre. In addition, WP:CLT says that categories and lists are not mutually exclusive. If anything, a list allows for sharing of additional detail, such as release year, country or countries, or even synopses so readers can decide if a film is worth reading about in-depth. If an article has problems, then it should be edited to be without problems. For example, you can just go ahead and remove the red links. Then you can find a secondary source listing romance films and see about adding films to this list or adding the reference to a film that is already on the list. (That way we don't have to engage in deleting something and re-adding it.) Can you do this instead of pushing for deletion? I'll help implement a list source into this list.

  • comment I'm confused. The nomination states that the subject barely passes WP:GNG. A topic that passes GNG (and doesn't violate what Wikipedia is not) is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article. So why is this at AfD? Seems a tad bitey to A7 it 20 minutes after it was created, and take it to AfD hours later, despite several editors pitching in to improve it. It sounds like a speedy keep.
If the article is poorly written, that's something to address by editing, not by deletion. And it isn't as if the five sources cited in the article are the only coverage. If you want to look at his TV work, there's 2014: [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]; 2015:[20][21][22][23][24][25]; 2016: [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40]; and 2017: [41][42][43] And that's just the English-language, online, no-subscription-needed reliable sources. Since his work is in Bengali, I wager there are more sources available in that language. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:20, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Sources provided by editor above, Worldbruce has been scrutinized by me and from the very few reliable sources he provided, it is observed that they do not in any way show subjects notability, they are mere announcements, eg "Mr A, Mr B, Mr C, and pretty Miss D" are going to feature in this film, that is not Wikipedia standard now is it?? as per WP:GNG, that isn't significant coverage enough. As of today I am still unable to locate a source that discusses the subject in depth. a speedy delete is still best option Celestina007 (talk) 15:01, 18 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • You write "very few reliable sources", but there are 37. 36 are articles in major English-language newspapers of Bangladesh: The Daily Star, The New Nation, Dhaka Tribune, The Independent, and The Daily Observer. The 37th, Jago News 24, is a Bengali-language news operation that, according to Alexa, is the 26th most popular website in the country. To quote from WP:RS, "'News reporting' from well-established news outlets is generally considered to be reliable for statements of fact" (about non-academic subjects).
    • With regard to the depth of sources, you ask "that is not Wikipedia standard now is it??" Yes, it is. WP:GNG says, "'Significant coverage' addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." As an example, no original research is required to extract from the first source above that:
Sajjad featured with actress Sadia Islam Mou and singer Agun in director Arun Chowdhury's 2014 telefilm for Channel i, Kaliganjer Audbhut Bari. To reach the three day shoot at an ancient Zaminder Bari in Taota, Sajjad and the rest of the cast had to travel by ambulance to get through roadblocks set up by political protesters.
WP:BASIC elaborates, "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability". Each of the sources above adds a different nugget of information about his TV career. Individually they may seem insignificant, but together they convey the picture that for the past four years one could hardly turn the TV on in Bangladesh without seeing him in soemthing. Deeper sources than those above are the second and fourth sources cited in the article. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:28, 18 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Worldbruce I suppose it is left to the community to decide notability as we clearly do not think alike, notability should include significant coverage as stated by WP:GNG if you feel because the subject has announcements from websites, he deserves inclusion into the encyclopedia then I really am dazed. please know this ; Majority of sources you cited are gossip blogs just copying from themselves over and over again. With all due respect sir it is as though a WP:CONFLICT is at play here. Celestina007 (talk) 19:34, 18 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep- It is absolutely unreasonable to call nationally published (i. e. printed) newspapers gossip blogs. I assume you, Celestina007, are not from Bangladesh and are not familiar with the newspapers there but Worldbruce has wiki linked them. You have the option to learn about them. These are Newspapers, The Daily Star is the largest circulated English language newspaper in the country. These are just English language sources, the Bengali (the national language of Bangladesh) sources should be more numerous. The sources are solid and numerous, enough to demonstrate notability.Vinegarymass911 (talk) 21:16, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia page for Soccerama seems fine and in good order. The publication employs key contributors (leading soccer pundits, award-winning journalists) and has a growing circulation. There are magazines with smaller circulations and smaller editorial budgets whose Wikipedia pages are not up for deletion. Perhaps the Soccerama page might be shorter but the publication in question has a degree of notability and should remain within on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.233.116.235 (talk) 13:51, 30 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The reason I put 'strong' is that several Meher Baba related pages have been deleted recently, Wikipedia's collection of Meher Baba articles has suffered for it, and am hoping to stem that tide. Plus, Pete Townshend is a major singer/songwriter of his generation and the era, and his single-song pages are fewer than many others working at his level.

  • Comment: The above "keep" votes are rather weak (from @Michig: and @SaintAviator:). If anyone wants this to be kept, you should provide sources to support that this has received significant coverage from reliable, third-party resources. Aoba47 (talk) 17:31, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • What? I'm in favour of deletion here. --Michig (talk) 19:57, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, but I'm not understanding your reasoning "We shouldn't keep redirects from such convoluted titles" since this isn't a redirect, but a song by Pete Townshend released on more than one record. A 'convoluted' title also is going over my head, for it seems concise and descriptive, unless 'Parvardigar (Townshend song)' is more concise (and that would maybe be a better title). The song seems to have made the prayer more prominent, which may have been Townshend's intent, but as a stand-alone page I don't see much wrong with it except a need for a couple of more sources (the one source is a book on Townshend, which should qualify as a good source). Randy Kryn 20:07, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm in favour of deleting the article (as indicated) as there is insufficent sourceable encyclopedic content about it. If we decide not to keep the article, the question is then do we keep a redirect with this title. Anyone searching for this song is unlikely to type this title into the search box, they're just going to search for 'Parvardigar', which will take them (eventually) to the disambiguation page, where this song is mentioned. The crux of it is, if nobody had created this article, we wouldn't have created a redirect with this title, so we shouldn't keep a redirect with this title just because someone did create this article.--Michig (talk) 20:56, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • An earlier version of this article had a couple of independent sources, which were removed. And there are more articles about this production that can be seen in a GNews search for Tommy Wiseau. On the other hand, nearly all of these news articles appeared around October 12, 2016; since then, the sources I found are basically bare mentions of this film in articles that focus on The Room or The Disaster Artist. So in view of the dictates of WP:NFF I am not sure if this, um, long-awaited film is ripe yet for its own article. --Arxiloxos (talk) 06:02, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • The topic of this film is certainly notable as there has been a ton of in-depth coverage, internationally no less. [46][47][48]And many more. However, there is serious concern about the accuracy of the coverage, even by reliable sources, in Talk:Best_F(r)iends by an editor who's username is that of the stated director producer. Apparently all that was shot was a teaser trailer but it was reported that the entire film was shot and they are now actually in production with a different director.

User:TenPoundHammer, the sources you added are not reliable – their original removal is one of the reasons this discussion is happening in the first place. They were removed early in March for a reason. The articles in question contain inaccuracies that do not reflect the film's reality. Kind regards. -- Krisbmacgregor (talk) 19:59, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Krisbmacgregor: Explain to me how the sources are not reliable. Entertainment Weekly and Hollywood Reporter are reliable publications. If you think the sources contain errors, then you need something more than "I know they're wrong". We can't use word of mouth as a source. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 23:52, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@TenPoundHammer: As a member of the film's production team, I can certify that both the sources in question contain factual inaccuracies. As I have mentioned to Oakshade, in the event that their not being referenced means the whole article fails to meet Wikipedia's threshold for sourcing, then the production team would prefer to see the whole article taken down for the time being rather than left up with mischaracterizing sources referenced. Many kind regards. -- Krisbmacgregor (talk) 01:36, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Krisbmacgregor: If the sources are inaccurate, then try to contact the creator of the sources. We have no proof besides your own word of mouth that the sources are inaccurate, and cannot take down the article just because you think the sources are wrong. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:53, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@TenPoundHammer: What matters is that all of the film's official outlets (website, Facebook fan page, etc.) substantiate that the director and production details stipulated by EW, HR, and others in October 2016 are demonstrably inaccurate. There is no reason for obviously in-error sources to be referenced on Wikipedia, in keeping with the platform's strong preference for truth.

I appreciate the effort Jrcla2 but I'm not fully convinced yet. The sources from 1971 are about when David Polansky resigned and the immediate fallout.

Question, GiantSnowman - the citation you provided, does that indicate he actually played in the game, or that he was simply on the team's roster for the game? Although the WP article states that he received his first two caps in 2016, that is uncited. I could find no sourcing showing he actually played in the games with BVI.

I previously nominated this for Prod delete, since the clear consensus is that winners of sub-national beauty pageants are not notable for such, and anyway all the souces are from the local paper, the Orange County Register, or from Miss America itself. It was deprodded arguing the sources show notability, which they clear do not considering they are all local write ups from Orange County, and then arguing since California is not a small place we should make an exception. In the long drawn out discussion for several months on the issue, no one argued we should make winners of certain state pageants deafault notable and others not. That is a horrible plan, and here is shown why. My search for no sources showed an occasional hit from a college paper, and the Orange County register links. If this was really somewho a notable honor to California, we would be getting hits for major write ups in the San Francisco Chronicle and the Los Angeles Times. We are not. This is just a preparatory win to enter a later pageant, and if the contestant does not win the later pageant they are not notable unless we can show more coverage for some other reason which plain does not exist here. This is a clear case of a person who is not notable. Also, the size of the state is a horrible argument. The amount of funding and prize money given to winners of such contests is a lot more in some states that are much smaller than California, and at least in some states like Utah all the press, including press that in no way covers to home town of a contestant is at least going to do some write up on the winner. There is not enough to show that Cavinder is notable, because she is not. I grow tired of all the special pleading for these articles that ignores the facts at hand.

  • Comment I was too generous in calling the thing a college paper article. This https://dornsife.usc.edu/news/stories/690/from-ball-gown-to-lab-coat/ is the one "source" that the person who deprodded the article produced. It is a junk source, aka a PR release, that in no way adds to the substantial, indepdent, 3rd party coverage needed to pass GNG. Sources like this are a dime a dozen and would lead to a project even more out of control an presentist, flooded with light meaningless articles on living people who have done nothing of significance, than we already have.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:31, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- yet another article on a unremarkable state-level pageant winner, where the article ornamentation (infoboxes, templates, etc) take more space than the actual article. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:08, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Redirect -- Have only been able to find routine coverage naming her as first runner-up at Miss America, no significant coverage --- PageantUpdater (talk) 02:35, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Miss America 2010. I did find some coverage about her, but apparently consensus is that winners of local pageants aren't inherently notable, even if they receive routine coverage for their win. However, given that she was a 1st runner-up at a Miss America pageant, a redirect to the article on the event she competed in probably wouldn't hurt.

The General Notability Guideline has not been met by this person. The sources in the article, and the sources I found myself during a WP:BEFORE search, are passing mentions. Wikipedia articles, particularly Biographies of Living Persons, require more than mere "proof of existence" - they significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. As a side note, the blatant promotional nature of the article makes me suspect that the subject of the article created the article. Exemplo347 (talk) 01:02, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
