The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. Unfortunately, no amount of editing can create notability - only extensive coverage in secondary, reliable sources can do that, and these have not been produced. – Juliancolton | Talk 02:57, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Company that has only trivial coverage in reliable sources, and the first page of Google being your standard yelp reviews and BBB complaints. PROMO article that fails GNG. TonyBallioni (talk) 17:37, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I'm sorry, I'm new to Wikipedia, so hopefully I'm doing this correctly. I based this wikipedia article off of one of a similar company called American Home Shield. I was wondering what makes that page more relevant than this one? What would make the Home Service page relevant like the one I based it off of? MattMicJay (talk) 10 April 2017 —Preceding undated comment added 18:19, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't have time to look in-depth at that article now, but a quick Google News search for it seems to turn up a lot more sources (though many of them also appear to be PR, so the article still might not meet our inclusion guidelines). Wikipedia bases its inclusion criteria on notability and discourages promotionalism. This company does not have publications in reliable sources that are normally required for inclusion. Other articles existing is not in itself a reason to keep one article, because there are many more articles created than their are reviewers to check them. Sometimes articles that don't meet our guidelines slip through the cracks for years. The question at this discussion is if the company in question has enough sources to be included at Wikipedia. from my research, it doesn't appear to. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:30, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Thank you for your help on this. I'll look at the GNG guidlines you mentioned. What type of sources would be considered more reliable? If I could find more reliable sources that show notability I assume the page wouldn't be taken down? Hoping to better learn how to make proper Wikipedia additions through this process. MattMicJay (talk) 10 April 2017 —Preceding undated comment added 18:45, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I saw that American Home Shield was mentioned in this discussion. I tried to do a quick Google search and I found some sites who compare and contrast the two companies. Here are some links link 1, link 2, and link 3. Since American Home Shield is notable enough to have a wiki and these sites are comparing the two, it makes me think that the Home Service Club is at least as notable as American Home Shield. 15:01, 12 April 2017 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Illuminateyourself (talk • contribs)

  • Delete: The industry awards are not in themselves of encyclopaedic notability; the given references indicate no more than a company going about its business, and I am not finding better than online reviews which are not reliable 3rd party sources. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH, WP:GNG. (Regarding the repeated mentions of "American Home Shield" above: each page has to be considered on its own merits and WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a worthwhile argument here.) AllyD (talk) 06:42, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment So it's been awhile since I looked at this page and to be honest, I'm not seeing anything particularly helpful for what I could do to make the page better for those who think it should be deleted. I've looked over the WP:GNG and, if I'm reading it correctly, these are the standards by which wikipedia determines notability, significant coverage, reliable, sources, independent sources, presumed notability. None of the comments thus far have explained to me why this Home Service Club specifically breaks these rules. It's been outlined that they have won several awards and honors but some users don't think those are notable enough and I'm not sure I understand why. Would that not qualify the company as having significant coverage and independent sources talking about it as described by the GNG? Also, I'd assume that this would also be considered reliable coverage? As for the issue of presumed notability, I assumed that a company with 21,000 fans on Facebook would have qualified. Now, I understand that it looks like some disagree about the notability of the company but no one has helped me realize what exactly would make the company notable. What is it I should be looking for? As far as I can tell from the GNG, this may not be a big company but it seems notable enough to me. I really don't see anything about the page that goes against the notability guide lines. I'd like to do what's necessary to improve the page's qualify in the eyes of other users, because it was the first one I've ever written, but, aside from mentioning the other sources mentioned in this argument I'm not sure what I'd have to do or look for to specifically satisfy those who are saying the page doesn't qualify. I'd appreciate some constructive feedback as to what I should be looking for because right now because I'm not seeing anything that stands out as a glaring issue.

This is a non-encyclopedic essay, not an encyclopedia article. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:09, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete An essay, original research and synthesis from the few sources cited, with no sources to support the core of the article: explaining what push development is (if it is at all a prevailing concept rather than one writer's notion—and a Google search indicates that it isn't a prevailing concept, at least not under the name "push development"). It makes arguments and pronouncements. Not a neutral reference article. Largoplazo (talk) 22:19, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was Speedy delete. Not only can I find no evidence anywhere of the existence of anything called "Terreformerms", but searches for various combinations of other elements of the article (such as the channels in which it is supposed to air, the names of the creators of the series, the work on which it is supposed to be based) also failed to turn up anything at all. Either it is a hoax or it is something made up by the creator of the article, and in either case it qualifies for speedy deletion.

  • Delete - the article is a mess at this point and most of the few uncited details contradict aviation media reports. That ref gives enough information say that the crash is WP:RUNOFTHEMILL (common military aircraft crash with no lasting effects beyond the death of one person) and thus no more notable than a car accident that results in one death and thus not notable enough for an article.

I started to clean up this badly written article, which appears to be an autobiography, before noting that quite a lot of the claims made in the article are not actually supported by the sources cited. Looking for alternative sources to re-write the article with, I'm unsure if the subject is actually notable. Yes, he gets mentioned or quoted quite a lot in technology news reports, but the depth of coverage is not really there - or not that I'm finding.

  • Hallmarks of promotional editing include uncited bio details like the subject's birth date, weak references mentioning their name but not critically examining their personal contributions, and extraneous self-cited projects and philanthropy. This has all of the above including for all I can tell, a garage band. Per DGG's maxim for cases like this, clear promotion plus borderline notability lead to a conclusion to delete it.

  • Delete. Holding a position within a political party's staff is not an automatic WP:NPOL pass in and of itself. It would be enough if he could be reliably sourced over WP:GNG for that work, but it's in no way a claim that entitles him to an article regardless of its sourceability. But of the references here, one is a primary source and the other two are glancing namechecks of his existence in media coverage that isn't about him, so none of them assist in demonstrating his notability.

This article has been through three four AFDs resulting in "Keep", "No Consensus", "Delete", and "Delete". No rationale has been given for its re-creation that I can find. The article in its current form appears to me to be substantially the same to the original article(s) that were deleted. The article was nominated for Speedy Deletion (G4: Recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion) and it was contested. There seems to be multiple issues with the article as it now stands, including potential promotion issues and general lack of notability. Paul McDonald (talk) 16:30, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Correction: 1st AfD: the result was keep, no consensus to delete; 2nd AfD: no consensus (two weeks later); 3rd AfD was delete. The speedy delete was contested because that move was procedurally flawed, the article as it now stands substantially differs from the prior versions, just as the reviewer found. --JumpLike23 (talk) 02:32, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Additional correction there have been four AFD discussions that I can find, not three. I was confused with the order. Here is what I have found so far:

If there are more discussions, please post them.--Paul McDonald (talk) 16:54, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]


Keep this articles qualifies under the GNG standard, "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." For example, Gatena is listed by Forbes magazine as a famous entrepreneur family, another publication lists him as an up and coming business person in LA. He has also received attention for founding companies and leading companies.

For football, he played for USC, which is a Division I team "the highest amateur level" for American football, for the Rose Bowl winning team and he is mentioned in other sources for his college career. Thus, he arguably qualifies the athlete standards. Moreover, while he was a FBS DI player pursuing a grad degree, he founded a company that ultimately got him recognized, see above.

Many previous opinions of users found him notable for college football career alone. The coverage he has received for the business career clearly establishes notability. --JumpLike23 (talk) 02:32, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete - it should be clearly noted that the last Afd (3rd) was in 2009 - when he was 23. He is now 31. While it was a delete back then (mostly based on his athlete career) - there were differing opinions.

  • Delete. Not notable as a businessman or a football player. I am also concerned with the recreation of this article (twice) after two prior AfDs resulted in "Delete" conclusions.

Article has no references outside of Soul Kingz own website and iTunes. The "notable" artists on the label all have articles created by the same person who made this article, FrankKoch, and they all base their notability on one thing: a claim of having a single song chart on the German Urban Charts with the only evidence being a facebook post from one of the artists themselves (MNSSH).

  • Delete. Unelected candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates, but this as written is not building a credible case that he would get over our notability standards for any of his other work — all of that stuff is referenced entirely to primary sources, except for one irrelevant newspaper citation that's here only to support the birth and death dates of another tangentially-connected person while failing to even mention Ruiz at all. The reliable sources here are entirely in the context of his candidacy itself — but that's just routine local election coverage of the type that every candidate in any election could always show, and does not demonstrate that his candidacy meets the rarefied standard necessary to be considered more notable than the norm. Furthermore, the article was created by a user named "NRIII", meaning it's an WP:AUTOBIO — and even if he were notable enough for an article, the path to getting one does not pass through writing it himself.

Poorly sourced WP:BLP of a beauty pageant winner, with no evidence of the depth of reliable source coverage needed to clear WP:GNG for it. Of the six sources here, two are small community weeklies that don't count toward GNG, two are university student media outlets that don't count toward GNG, and the only two that are actually worth anything at all, because they're actually in real major market daily newspapers, both just glancingly namecheck her existence in the process of failing to be about her. As always, the mere holding of a beauty pageant title is not an automatic freebie that entitles a person to keep an article that's referenced this badly -- she has to be the subject of enough genuinely substantive media coverage to pass GNG.

Completely unsourced and advertorially slanted article about a band, with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC for anything -- even the claims of touring don't get a band an inclusion freebie in the absence of actual sourcing that shows the tour was the subject of media coverage, and the only other claims here are the "success" of a single which is completely unquantified, and that they "began to come into their own" with a full-length album. As always, bands are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist; reliable source coverage, supporting a claim of notability that passes NMUSIC, must be present for an article on here to become earned, but nothing here meets either part of that equation.

This magazine is quite notable and is similar in circulatin and content to The Northeast Today, in fact the page of Eclectic Northeast Magazine was not so much advertising as The Northeast Today. It is suspected that people against the magazine are asking for its deletion. This page should be up and more links. Kangla Online, the leading newspaper of a state in Assam : Manipur, has a source on Eclectic - <ref>http://kanglaonline.com/2015/11/eclectic-northeast-celebrates-its-9th-anniversary/ . Even Chief minister of Assam, Mary Kom released the magazine http://www.manipur.org/news/2012/11/19/chief-minister-of-assam-shri-tarun-gogoi-and-olympic-champion-m-c-mary-kom-releases-eclectic-northeast-magazine/ Northeast India has a huge but neglected population. Mainstream media doesn't cover this are so much and deletion of an important magazine entry from wikipedia from the region should not be allowed. There is no reference of blatant advertising like as in The Northeast today.

KEEP THE ARTICLE

  • The article "Eclectic Northeast" has been edited to give it more referenced links rather than random ones.The article should not be deleted because the magazine is a well deserved magazine of the region. There is a need for such magazine to keep people aware of the issues of their own region. So, people should know about the magazine to know about the region. There might not be many notable references to the article but there are a few of them which are notable enough to support the article.

Other stuff exists is not a good argument at AfD, Articles should be judged on their own merits: there are other articles like this one, and each of them can be challenged on its own and deleted so just because other stuff exists doesn't necessarily mean that this article should exist as well. It also to be noted that the article was recreated to promote the subject by a user with conflict of intrest and Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion and as per our general notability guideline The topic must received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject and I don't see any for this magazine.

Content (POV) fork. Content on the topic of ‘’opposition to same-sex marriage’’ is appropriate for various articles, such as Same-sex marriage, LGBT rights opposition, and Societal attitudes toward homosexuality, and separate article with a neutral title might even be appropriate. However, the Irredeemably non-neutral wording of this article makes the possibility of a merge or page move unfeasible. RivertorchFIREWATER 13:01, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Undesirable content fork that depends almost entirely on WP:SYNTH. The subject purports to be a movement, but the content is a hodge podge of material that could be covered in the articles listed by Rivertorch.- MrX 13:52, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Rivertorch. Title doesn't even makes sense; would be more honest to call it the "anti-same-sex-marriage movement". Funcrunch (talk) 15:25, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to LGBT rights opposition. The title is a likely search term, so that article would provide the appropriate context for someone looking for it. Diego (talk) 15:29, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and oppose redirect. Title violates NPOV and is unclear, since same-sex marriage supporters might also call themselves the "pro-marriage" movement. This term is not used by enough reliable sources to merit inclusion on Wikipedia.Michelangelo1992 (talk) 19:01, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Those are not valid arguments to avoid having the redirect. Relevant policy (WP:RNEUTRAL) says that "Just as article titles using non-neutral language are permitted in some circumstances, so are redirects. Because redirects are less visible to readers, more latitude is allowed in their names. Perceived lack of neutrality in redirect names is therefore not a sufficient reason for their deletion. In most cases, non-neutral but verifiable redirects should point to neutrally titled articles about the subject of the term. "
The concern at hand is guiding readers to neutrally written information, even if the term they use is not neutral by our criteria. Matter of fact is that no same-sex marriage supporters call themselves "the pro-marriage movement", yet we have sources like New York Times, Salon or Business Insider using the term as referring to groups opposing it. Diego (talk) 09:46, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and oppose redirect. I don't think it's teeeeeechnically a content fork of an existing article since we don't actually have an article on anti-marriage activism (we have LGBT rights opposition and a subsection on opposition in Same-sex marriage in the United States, afaict) but that's nonetheless clearly the intent. If WP wants to spin out a separate article on anti-marriage activism it will need to be done in compliance with policy.

A title like "Traditional marriage movement" I'd actually have little to no objection to, assuming the content did not violate NPOV. That AfD was seven years ago, when same-sex marriage was legal in fewer countries than it is today. Funcrunch (talk) 21:55, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but that would be a new article. This one, I fear, cannot be salvaged. RivertorchFIREWATER 03:58, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I would still object to the title "traditional marriage movement" because monogamous opposite-sex marriage is still not traditional in all cultures. Many cultures included polygamy and concubines, for example, in their marriage traditions. Michelangelo1992 (talk) 13:30, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, but if enough reliable sources are using that term to refer to people that support "one man + one woman" style marriages, then we could include it, at least as a redirect for searching purposes. Funcrunch (talk) 15:07, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New Lenox is not large enough that being its mayor would constitute an automatic WP:NPOL pass in and of itself, but the depth and breadth of sourcing here is not sufficient to get him past the "who have received significant press coverage" condition in NPOL #2: it's virtually all local coverage, of the type that every mayor of every place could always routinely expect to receive, and neither expands beyond the purely local nor covers him in the context of anything substantive enough to deem his mayoralty a topic of special interest.

Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a musician and writer, with no particularly strong claim of notability under either WP:NMUSIC or WP:AUTHOR and no reliable source coverage about her in media to support it -- the only "references" here are a YouTube video and the self-published website of a literary magazine that published some of her writing, so these are not reliable or independent sources. As always, neither writers nor musicians are guaranteed Wikipedia articles just because they happen to exist -- reliable source coverage in media, properly supporting a credible claim of notability, has to be present for an article to become earned.

No, you haven't added any new reliable sources; you've added blogs. And having "professional credits in her industry" is not, in and of itself, a free pass over Wikipedia's inclusion criteria either — every single person in her industry always has professional credits in the industry, because they wouldn't be in the industry if they didn't. Our notability criteria are passed by being the subject of real coverage in real media (i.e. not blogs) which verifies one or more specific accomplishments (i.e. awards, verifiable chart success, etc.) that pass a Wikipedia inclusion criterion.

No evidence this product is sufficiently notable for an article. The article doesn't cite any sources other than the vendor's own web site. I searched for reliable sources (Google News, Google Books, Google Scholar), the only thing I could find was a passing mention: Christian Antognini (14 June 2014). Troubleshooting Oracle Performance. Apress. p. 100. ISBN 978-1-4302-5759-2. In addition to the manual method covered in the previous section, it's also possible to use one of the graphical interfaces available in third party products. Such an interface is provided by the major players such as PL/SQL Developer (Allround Automations), SQLDetective (Conquest Software Solutions), Toad and SQL Navigator (Dell), or Rapid SQL (Embarcadero). All these tools can be used to profile the code, usually by clicking a check box or button before running a test or by simply analyzing the content of the output tables. Maybe that is enough for this to be briefly mentioned in an existing article, but it doesn't seem to be enough coverage to justify an independent article on this product.

  • Delete The article is just a cut-n-paste of a data sheet, not even in English prose.

  • Delete - Software article of unclear notability, lacking independent references. A search turned up download sites but no significant WP:RS coverage.

SQLDetective is a development and administration tool for Oracle databases. It's used by many developers and DBAs around the world. This article provides a brief description about its features for prospects and users. BTW: PL/SQL Developer you mentioned above has the similar article but it's not nominated for deletion. Please explain. Scott tiger 2002 (talk) 14:39, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Scott tiger 2002: For Wikipedia, the number of users doesn't matter, it is substantial coverage in reliable sources that counts. Is this software discussed (not just once, but multiple times and in detail) in the trade press (whether online or offline), in academic papers, in books published by respected publishers, etc. This software doesn't seem to meet that standard, since searching for those sorts of sources only found the brief mention I gave above. As far as PL/SQL Developer goes, that is an WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument – if you think the subject of that article doesn't meet the notability criteria, then the answer is to nominate that article for deletion, not to refrain from deleting this one. I think that article is at the very least borderline, and could be a candidate for deletion, although on the other hand I find significantly more Google Books mentions of that product than of this one, so it may be that that other article (even if only just) passes the bar whereas this article fails to meet it.

Seems to fail WP:NCOMPANY - or in other words, the usual start up spam. Few business-as-usual/startup-gets funding in sites like Techcrunch that tend to publish a new entry each time someone sneezes in a start-up. The short (rotted: archive) entry for million of users is dubious, I wouldn't be surprised if this is based on non-verifiable press release. No significance in the wider world.

I put this up as a PROD and it was contested, so here we are. Completely unsourced BLP fails WP:BLP with respect to the lack of references, and also fails WP:SOLDIER with respect to notability. Generating notability under WP:SOLDIER requires that military members who seek to show notability by winning the second-highest honor (here, the Navy Cross) must be awarded it multiple times. This individual was awarded it once. Of course, there may be other claims to notability, but I was unable to find any credible sources suggesting further reasons why this person has achieved encyclopedic notability. The only references to this person in third-party sources I can find are passing references to somebody of the same name and approximate age in police reports for various petty offenses: [1] and [2]. If those are even the same person, they don't create notability nor are the adequate references to support this otherwise unreferenced BLP. I'd be happy to be wrong about this one if there are additional reasons for notability and reliable third-party sources to back it up -- but I haven't seen them yet. 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 06:53, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

      The article notes:

      White Lodging, one of the largest hospitality companies in the United States, has named a new chief executive officer as it gears up for rapid growth.

      Chief Financial Officer Ken Barrett has been named CEO of the Merrillville-based company, which has invested $2.5 billion in developing more than 125 upscale hotels over the last three decades. He replaces Dave Sibley, who will become chief operating officer.

      Chairman and founder Bruce White said the changes were made because of an upcoming phase of rapid expansion. White Lodging plans to open new hotels in Wisconsin, Texas, Tennessee, Colorado and Indiana next year.

      ...

      White Lodging develops and manages leading hotel brands such as Marriott International Inc., Hilton Worldwide, Hyatt Global, Preferred Hotels & Resorts and InterContinental Hotel Group. Altogether, it manages 165 hotels in 19 states.

      The article notes:

      Eight hotels containing almost 4,000 rooms are scheduled to open across Austin within the next three years, making the Texas capital one of the most active markets in the country for new hotel construction.

      White Lodging, a private hotel developer and manager responsible for about a third of those rooms, is betting big on Austin. Although the Indiana firm has put up and managed mostly midmarket hotels near the airport or in the Austin suburbs for the last two decades and currently owns or manages 23, White Lodging is gambling its two new downtown hotels, the JW Marriott and Westin, will be worth its more than $400 million investment.

      ...

      Austin’s booming tech industry, from start-ups to offices for Dell, Samsung and Apple; universities; and its location as the world headquarters for Whole Foods help make White Lodging’s gamble seem sound.

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow White Lodging to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

    Cunard (talk) 07:03, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • White Lodging is based in Merrillville, Indiana. It has received significant coverage in the Austin American-Statesman in Austin, Texas; The Denver Post in Denver, Colorado; and The New York Times. The Journal Gazette is based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, which is 124 miles from Merrillville, Indiana. There is plenty of nonlocal coverage.

    The company has received sustained coverage. The Austin American-Statesman article was published in 1994. The New York Times article was published in 2013 and The Times of Northwest Indiana article was published in 2016.

    The Times of Northwest Indiana article says White Lodging is "one of the largest hospitality companies in the United States" and notes that it manages 165 hotels in 19 states.

    A 2006 article in the Post-Tribune noted, "The lodging company headed by the son of Crown Point's billionaire hotelier Dean White will receive a huge infusion of cash of its own, selling 100 hotels to prominent black businessman Robert L. Johnson for $1.7 billion on Monday." A company that does a $1.7 billion deal through the sale of some of its assets is notable.

    This company is clearly notable for receiving sustained, national coverage.

  • Really? What notability guideline states that companies that make big money deals are notable? All of the citations you've shown here are stories on transactions or personel changes. Further, if you look at them closely, they share a close similarity in style, even though they come from separate papers. This says to me they were written off press releases. There is simply not enough depth in sourcing to have a decent verifiable article, which is why we have notability guidelines in the first place.

  • Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) says:

    When evaluating the notability of organizations or products, please consider whether they have had any significant or demonstrable effects on culture, society, entertainment, athletics, economies, history, literature, science, or education.

    A company that sells $1.7 billion worth of hotels has had a "significant or demonstrable effec[t]" on "society".

  • Keep. I acknowledge the opinions here that the coverage is superficial and the company is run of the mill, but I agree with Cunard: a company of this size and geographical influence, whose activities have been widely covered in national and regional media, is sufficiently notable to warrant coverage in our encyclopedia. To omit sourceable, relevant material about this important Indiana company, a significant national player in the hotel business, would unnecessarily cut a small hole in our coverage of those subjects. I suppose an alternative might be to incorporate this content into the existing articles about Indiana's influential White family, but I find this less attractive given the wider scope of the company's operations. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:57, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I've gone back and looked in detail at the sources and references provided. I believe that there are sufficient reliable secondary sources that establish notability and therefore I've struck my Delete !vote above. My comments on the sources are below.
The Northwest Indiana Times article reports a company announcement of a new CEO with some quotes from the founder and chairman. Fails as per item 5 at WP:CORPDEPTH
Austin American Statesman] article is also not intellectually independent and relies on quotes and information from the company and its officers including a potted history and forward looking statements. Fails as the reference is a primary reference and fails WP:ORGCRITE.
THe Journal Gazette article is acceptable from the point of view of being an independent source.
The Denver Post is reporting on a company press release. Fails point 5 and 9 of WP:CORPDEPTH
Indiana Post-Tribute article is good as a reference to establish notability in my opinion. Even though it contains quotations from various sources, the article appears to be independent and objective.
The New York Times article is independent and discusses a data breach at the company
The New York Times article is a press release and forward looking statements about a potential sale. In my opinion, this fails point 6 of WP:CORPDEPTH
The New York Times] namechecks the company and gets a brief quote from company personal but on the whole, the article appears to be independent and objective.
Based on the above, there are 4 secondary reliable independent sources that establish notability. Meets WP:CORPDEPTH. -- HighKing++ 17:41, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Battlestar Galactica. Consensus was to delete, but there seems to be agreement that there is some useful content that could be placed in other articles. Since there is a plausible redirect target, I've redirected the article to make the history more accessible to anyone that might want to merge some of the content into other articles. ‑Scottywong| verbalize _ 00:30, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Big background event in a fictional universe, but fails WP:GNG. Lots of mentions in passing, sure, but primarily in the in-universe reference works. Nothing I can find shows that this has real world significance or impact, no scholarly source discusses influences on or by this fictional event, etc. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:46, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete or Redirect to Battlestar Galactica if people think that it is a plausible search term. - The article is currently nothing but a lot of unsourced plot summaries, with a smattering of OR sprinkled throughout. Additionally, a large portion of the article is just a general summary of the plot of the reboot series, making it a rather unnecessary WP:FORK of the main Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series) article. As stated by the nomination, while there are plenty of passing mentions when doing the normal searches, none of them are anything but trivial or plot-only sources, and there is nothing that talks in depth about either version of the "first" Cylon War. And, as I mentioned, the "second" Cylon War is just the plot of the series that has no reason to be a separate article from said series. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.183.45.226 (talk) 17:19, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There seems to be some confusion. The sports notability guideline refers only to athletes and not teams. The page even specifically states that teams must go by WP:CORP. Further, FOOTYN is an essay. SL93 (talk) 07:52, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • SL93, the article is particularly essential in providing some understanding about sports in the region (Chernivtsi Oblast). In 2000s the club was a leader of regional football, was very active at the National Championship among amateur teams for several seasons, and provided quite few professional players, yet since 2010 there seems to be almost no information it. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 08:54, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
FOOTYN is an essay but it is also a generally accepted consensus established through a large number of AfD discussions that football clubs need to have participated in national tournaments to be considered notable. I'm not aware of WP:CORP ever actually being used in football club discussions, specifically because the language used is heavily tilted towards companies rather than sports clubs. @Aleksandr Grigoryev: it is a bit difficult with amateur teams and national titles as they have participated in a national tournament, but the fact that it is amateur normally means it receives substantially less coverage than professional competitions. It would help if rather than including external links, you could change them to inline citations with sourced prose indicating GNG. Fenix down (talk) 09:11, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Piotrus, Shhhnotsoloud: There is a brand owned by Nike which is called 'Dunkman' (see Dunkman (brand), 2004.) I think redirect to that is the best option, although the brand seems to be named after LeBron James. Certainly the see also is invalid. Boleyn (talk) 10:11, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I ran google and gNews searches on dunkman and "dunk man" references to this specific sneaker are minimal, and largely confined to sources like Sneaker News, or promotional - nothing to justify a bluelink, redirect or disambig page. There are references to LeBron James as "dunkman," but both my searches and the RfC linked above persuade me that the term is also used for other players. It appears to be comparable to "slugger" used to describe a baseball player. Note, however, that Slugger links to actual sluggers. This discussion leads no no significant uses of "dunkman." He's not commonly called "Dunkman James." Let's deep-six this one. E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:19, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not yet notable: half the refs are to his own work, and most of the rest are by one particular Forbes "contributor", who is not a member of their staff, and therefore no more reliable than a blogger. DGG ( talk ) 05:20, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for now. This is obviously a stub article that needs more work. TeriEmbrey (talk) 15:55, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Stubs, whether they "need more work" or not, are not automatically entitled to stick around; there actually has to be a credible notability claim in the first place, as well as at least some evidence that the depth and breadth of reliable source coverage needed to support it at least exists even if it isn't all in the article yet. But this meets neither of those requirements: the notability claim boils down to "he exists", with no evidence shown of anything that would make his existence more notable than the norm among people who do what he does, and the referencing is mainly to primary sources that cannot assist in showing notability — while the fewer sources that do assist in showing notability (Forbes) are not being used to support any actual substance, but are simply piled up as a reference bomb metasourcing the mundane statement that Forbes has written about him. But that's not how referencing shows notability either — the reference has to support a statement about the context that the coverage was given for, not just a statement that the reference exists. There's also a direct conflict of interest here, as the article is a clear WP:AUTOBIO by the subject himself — but even if he can be shown as notable enough to have a Wikipedia article, the path to getting one does not pass through writing it himself. At best this is a blow it up and start over situation; at worst it's WP:TOOSOON for a person who may clear our notability standards in the future once his book is published but does not yet pass them today. Bearcat (talk) 13:52, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:GNG. Neither the article nor sources indicate any notability of the subject. Sources are mostly primary. As nom stated all the Forbes articles are written by a "Contributor" and article carries Forbes' standard disclaimer. Medium.com is pretty much a blog host and accepts just about anything someone wants to write about and being the number 1 writer on it certainly isn't notable. Maybe WP:TOOSOON.

  • Delete as A7 nominator. If I understand the policy correctly, a (mere) relationship with someone famous is not in itself a claim of notability (hence the A7). Even assuming that it is a claim of notability, per WP:INVALIDBIO, it is not enough to establish notability. So, since we haven't established Ms. Islam's notability, and searches for sources have been unable to do so, this article doesn't meet the guidelines.

Comment In what way, per your own suggestion that this falls under WP:ATD-R, is this a useful redirect? She is mentioned solely for being born. Nothing more. It's about as useful as directing my user page to George Washington because he's my great-something grandfather. That redirect isn't likely to be expanded into an article any time soon as is obvious by this AfD and total dearth of sources and it certainly shouldn't be merged with his article. This isn't like a band or a film where they could conceivably share the same works or general subject matter. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 17:57, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This would likely be deleted at RfD if it had been blanked and redirected, because INVALIDBIO does not say redirect every non-notable biography created to their notable family, it says David Beckham and Brittany Spear's children redirect to them respectively. The questions we should be asking are: is it likely that people searching for her would be satisfied by the information on her father's page about her? Would people find this redirect useful? Are there any reasons why we might not want to redirect?. 1 and 2 the answer is likely no. 3 the answer is yes: she's a low profile living person and this would redirect to an article that her actions have no impact on.

  • Keep I remember in my days at BYU coming across a book in the BYU library on the Kalmyk Americans. Sources only have to exist, and people have written books on this topic. The article at present is highly questionable, such as the claim the Kalmyks assimilated in Russia, since they are the only historically Buddhist population in Europe, so clearly in some ways they did not assimilate, but having a poor article is not reason to delete, but reason to improve.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:02, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete - I don't think it is a hoax. Previous AfDs have found a couple sources, here and here, and on proquest there is another, here. I feel each of these are about Rehmat Aziz Khan Chitrali more than the academy, but the academy certainly exists, at least as an organization for the publishing of Chitrali's work. Further, I think Chitrali sounds like an impressive person and should be commended. However, their work with WMF and writings here seem to focus on international promotion, which is difficult and important for an organization, but an article like this which seems meant largely for promotion isn't really encyclopedic. If there was coverage of the institute from which an article could be based, then it would be easier to write an article about the organization. As is, I can't differentiate the organization from Chitrali on the basis of reliable sources. Smmurphy(Talk) 20:19, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I'm new here, so I don't know the exact rules about the deletion of articles. However, I do see a definition in this ON/OFF book which is as a PHD thesis a scientific piece of work and a good summary of the current debate.[1] Further, it's mentioned in the DIE ZEIT article[2] (it's the German NYT) which did apparently run as the main article of the issue. Even it's not mentioned widely over the web, it's mentioned by very reliable sources. Can concepts become part of Wikipedia only once they are regularly used? Mljakubowski (talk) 09:47, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Mljakubowski: I cannot speak for the German newspaper usage, but the book you found does indeed define it (in the future rather than commercial bookseller please link to page view on Google Books if possible, like this: Sarah Genner (3 January 2017). ON/OFF: Risks and Rewards of the Anytime-Anywhere Internet. vdf Hochschulverlag AG. pp. 163–. ISBN 978-3-7281-3799-9.). The source of their definition seems to be [4], a German language document on whose reliability again I cannot comment. That's a good start, but please read WP:NEO and WP:GNG. For new terms we need more than 1-2 sources, a more widespread use would help. If you can show this term used in let's say 5 or so more reliable sources, preferably English (so I can read them), I'd be ready to change my vote to keep. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:43, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Coming off of a Wikibreak, I did a little research. Seems the Fraser Institute is very highly ranked (2014 Global Go To Think Tank Index Report) as a think tank. In my Google Scholar search for "fraser institute freedom index" I got 78,500 hits. E.g., lots of authors are looking at the Freedom of the World index as a source.

SPA account has created article with tenuous references. Single EP release last month detailed in Discogs as played on two albums, in last six months. Brand new but simply not notable. Fails WP:BIO and WP:BAND. In previous Afd, IP SPA account 2601:380:8100:34F:3CB0:594D:B7A9:8565, argued that he was notable. SPA account 70.124.208.204, who is probably Greg Tanoose himself, came in an argued extensively that all sources were valid. Clearly not notable. scope_creep (talk) 21:26, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep A Google search reveals pages of mentions, including sources as significant as the New York Post. A source backs up every sentence in this article, which is a very modest article about his notable productions. Each mentioned collaborator in this article acknowledges work with Greg Tanoose on their official social media accounts, there is no debate that the events took place. With each statement in this article being notable in itself, it is simply a matter of significant facts. A Google search reveals additional production work with notable hip-hop artists, which this article does not mention. This article will benefit from additional facts about this person's work, not deletion. The article is unbiased and states modest matter of fact, with each statement backed by a source. With many more sources available via a google search to back these claims, it is these facts and statements that are notable. It should be noted that Discogs does not reflect the large-scale digital and streaming notoriety. Discogs covers only physical products, which for a new artist is rare, and large-scale digital circulation of Greg Tanoose is revealed through a simple Google search. Google search also reveals significant circulation of his publishing in media, and this publishing is documented on BMI (which includes work with Universal Music). Further content in this article would reveal additional sources, it simply has not been mentioned in the article. The article cites a film on IMDB that is currently on Netflix, with Greg Tanoose credited as providing music. The article should not be deleted. Note: It is not helpful to this discussion to say "probably" of anything.

There really doesn't appear to be any independent notability outside the subject's band. At best, this warrants a redirect to Born Cages. - Biruitorul Talk 13:48, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related deletion discussions. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:30, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Meets WP:NMUSIC via the criteria of being "a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles". Jet Lag Gemini and Born Cages both have articles, and he's been a main member of both. I actually don't think he's especially notable but by the letter of the guidelines this should remain. KaisaL (talk) 21:13, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note to KaisaL (talk): Although Jet Lag Gemini has a wikipage it’s a good candidate for deletion itself. See my comments in my Delete ivote below. So if your vote is to “follow the letter” of WP guidelines because this individual—who you admit does not strike you as independently notable—is in two independently notable ensembles, then you might consider changing your keep to delete if you agree with me on the shortcomings of one of those bands. ShelbyMarion (talk) 23:32, 30 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If you nominate Jet Lag Gemini for AFD and it is deleted then I'd reconsider. For now, the guidelines say this is a notable subject, guidelines that are there I'd add to prevent knee jerk deletions by people not applying the policy correctly. If one of Vlad's bands is not notable then it becomes likely he wouldn't be in his own right, but I'd need to look into it further to give a properly considered opinion. Jet Lag Gemini have an EP and an album with articles too, I'd nominate those simultaneously. KaisaL (talk) 03:56, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • KeepI'd say the other band, Jet Lag Gemini is notable enough as well to warrant this page existing. Also as a producer, worked on Now 45 (released on Capitol Records and certified gold), Donald Cumming's Out Calls Only (Razor & Tie / Sony), Public Access TV's Never Enough (Cinematic Music Group / Sony) as well as Kidz Bop 25.
  • Notability can not be conferred. If there are non-promotional, independent third party references ABOUT Vlad Holiday’s role as a producer (rather than tangential mentions) on these projects, then those things listed as sources would add credibility to keeping this page. His involvement on Now 45, it should be noted, was within context of his role in Born Cages (which has its own wikipage,) . The success of that particular project has nothing to do with his contribution and everything to do with the other artists on the compilation. ShelbyMarion (talk) 13:10, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Redirect to Born Cages article. Not enough evidence of independently notability. Of the 28 references provided here, only two are outside of his role in that band, and they are credits lists. Same thing goes with his role as an independent producer. Also, there’s a bit of sleight of hand with the Gold Record award. Are we really expected to believe it’s because of the subject’s contribution to Born Cages’ presence on a NOW MUSIC compilation album? I suspect it’s because the other tracks are by Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Kesha, Josh Groban, etc. Notability is not conferred by association. As for the other band, Jet Lag Gemini is of dubious notability and that article is probably worthy of an AFD nomination owing to it’s lack of good sources and a sole EP and album output, neither of which show evidence of chart placement or review coverage from significant third party sources (the references provided are the usual fluff.) Finally, it should be noted that the unsigned “Keep” argument above is from an SPA editor with a special interest in this article and the one for Born Cages.

@Lingo999: Could you provide more detail, including the author and title of the publication you mentioned? I'm not able to access the 2000 issues of Rask (their web site says "Access is denied due to invalid credentials"), and according to WorldCat there are no paper copies available at universities near me. If the journal is indexed somewhere, or if the study is available in some other format we would be better able to judge its impact and notability. Cnilep (talk) 00:39, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've had a look at the April 2000 issue (no. 12) of RASK, and the page range given above falls within the limits of the paper "Critique of Linguistic Reason II" by Wataru Koyama. Is that the one you were referring to, Lingo999? I don't see anything relevant in the December issue. – Uanfala (talk) 15:40, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • If we assume that Koyama's "Critique of linguistic reason" is the incompletely-named source that the article cites, then I'm not seeing support there. For example, I don't see anything in Koyama that supports the idea of in lexicon versus per sentiunt approaches. And given that Koyama is trying to define a unified theory of synchronic and diachronic approaches, he would seem to be at odds with an argument that no unified theory can be correct. That said, I've merely skimmed Koyama, and in any case Lingo999 may have been thinking of a different article. But unless more detail is forthcoming, I'd say delete.

Comment It is regrettable that this article was taken to a deletion discussion only a day and a half after being created. A redirect to Machine Gun Kelly discography would have been more helpful. There is also the issue that its notability is mainly in question because it is "upcoming"; that will change in only a couple of weeks. A redirect could then have been reverted, if it charted in a national chart (highly likely). MartinJones (talk) 17:41, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a musician and activist, with no strong reliable sourcing to properly support notability for either endeavour: there are just two references here, of which one is a WP:ROUTINE piece of local coverage in her own hometown and the other is her own self-published Bandcamp page for her album. As always, neither musicians nor activists are automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- they need to be sourceable over WP:GNG, but just one media source isn't enough to get her there. Bearcat (talk) 01:31, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Update: creator has since added several more sources, but none of them bolster notability at all. Some are unreliable sources (YouTube videos, "Shutter16", etc.), some are primary sources that she wrote herself, and some are Q&A interviews where she's giving soundbite on a topic other than herself and thus fails to be the subject of the source in question.

  • Delete. Geneseo is not large enough that being its mayor would constitute an automatic WP:NPOL pass in and of itself — but apart from one deadlink of an article in the local media about a minor public relations blunder of no enduring significance, this is otherwise parked entirely on primary sources, and offers no indication of the depth or breadth of reliable source coverage needed to get him past the "who have received significant press coverage" part of our criteria for local officeholders.
