The articles are WP:LISTCRUFT by including every single game played, and player in the team's history. Contradicts WP:NOTSTATS and WP:NHOCKEY. We do not have this detail for higher-level NHL teams, let alone junior hockey. Flibirigit (talk) 23:41, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all per WP:NOTSTATS. Far too much intricate detail for a team that isn't even a major team. Ajf773 (talk) 05:33, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete As I stated on the talk page for the Barrie Colts, NOTSTATS and original research LISTCRUFT. While they are currently unreferenced as well, the references are easy to come by. However, it is just a bunch of WP:ROUTINE coverage. We do actually often go into that level of detail for NHL teams, but it is usually split into individual season pages. Individual season pages would likely be fine (for GNG) in the OHL given its level of coverage in the Ontario and general Canadian media, but I have not seen the level of editor commitment in the upkeep of said subjects (same goes for minor league North American hockey in general). Yosemiter (talk) 16:38, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the Draft Pick and Schedule and Results lists per nom; keep the roster but reorganize it. IF we do not have all-time team rosters for NHL teams there is no reason why we should not, and I don't see a reason a sourced roster for a lower level team would be inappropriate either. The current state of the roster is overly detailed, and a list would partially duplicate information from the category. But an appropriately formatted list could include information that is excluded from the categories, such as the years each player played for the team and possibly the position. Rlendog (talk) 15:31, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Rlendog: For such a list to exist for the junior team, is there any more to the sourcing for WP:LISTN talking about all-time roster for every player ever? (All-time best, sure. But the entire roster ever? Seems to be somewhat excessive and never ending. At least in the NHL they would be notable players and with less change season-to-season.) Doesn't Category:Barrie Colts players suffice for a suitable list? Yosemiter (talk) 17:15, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • All time best would be a problem because of we would need an objective and reliable source for "best." Unless you are referring to a top 10 or so in various statistical categories. That would seem appropriate. But I don't have a problem with a list of every player who played for a given junior team (admittedly for notable players that would duplicate information in the category) since the list would be reliably sourceable and the category would not include players who do not have aritcles, and the list could also include some other relevant information, such as the years they played for the team, possibly games played or points scored. It would be a long list, but for someone who is interested in the particular team it could be beneficial (and reliably sourced). Rlendog (talk) 19:20, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • By all-time best, I did mean reliably sourced, but yes it would be problematic in general due to bias. However, per WP:LISTN, for a stand-alone list to be considered notable, the subject should be discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources. I think the problem I see with it is that it is too WP:INDISCRIMINATE and the subject of the All-time players for the Barrie Colts is not really a topic that is discussed independently. It makes more of a stats page. Most of the time when independent sources discuss the Barrie Colts players, it is as footnote in a profile of a notable player's career. I think could also work just fine a redirect to a notable Barrie Colts section (or even list if there were a good GNG reason for having it). I think WP:NOTEVERYTHING might be a good guideline here: "Information should not be included in this encyclopedia solely because it is true or useful. A Wikipedia article should not be a complete exposition of all possible details, but a summary of accepted knowledge regarding its subject. Verifiable and sourced statements should be treated with appropriate weight." Yosemiter (talk) 19:38, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    There are two Wired articles referenced. One is behind a paywall and appears to be an interview (which would be a primary source and doesn't count toward notability), and the other gives just a brief mention to the subject. ~Anachronist (talk) 22:46, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - The reference cited here. Additionally, I don't think the nom has cited how the article doesn't meet notability even if borderline. Granted there may be a sock behind it but the subject in its scrutiny meets GNG as per my interpretation of WP:GNG TalkMe (talk) 08:06, 10 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • The WP:N is the guideline under which WP:GNG is but one part. Passing the GNG is not in itself sufficient to be considered notable under that guideline. A subject must pass the GNG or an SNG and the article must pass WP:NOT to have a presumption of inclusion per WP:N. The GNG cannot overrule the guideline in which it is contained. This article fails WP:NOTSPAM as a promotional commissioned work by a CU confirmed UPE farm. The question of notability is not important. Also, as your userpage says you edit for pay at all times, I think it is fair to question whether or not you can be objective in this case, and whether or not you were paid for this vote.

Okay, let me rephrase that, he was good friends with Johnny Cash. It still doesn't make him notable, seeWP:INVALIDBIO.--Rusf10 (talk) 19:43, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And what about his dealings with Jackson? Sir Joseph (talk) 19:56, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There is a large amount of sourcing showing on my searches. I suspect that Nom had a recentism problem with his WP:BEFORE search due to the fact that Vaccero was active in the 80s. Doing stuff like developing real estate in Asbury Park N.J., messing in local politics, collecting Jackson-related stuff. Here's a search of "Henry Vaccaro" at NYTimes [1]. Article just needs an editor willing to improve the article. Star Ledger archives would be the place to start.E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:00, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wait. Why is this at AfD altogether? there is enough stuff on the page to indicate probable notability, and a quick search ought to have resolved whatever doubts Nom harboured. I coudl see tagging it, but AfD? E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:05, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, based on the sources you found I see that he is more notable than I had thought. The two factors that made me think this should be deleted are that the Kramer Guitars article lists him only as a minor partner (but the NYT source you found says he is the owner) and the fact that the article was originally created as an autobiography (either directly by him or someone associated with him). I'll withdraw the nomination.--Rusf10 (talk) 00:15, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Apparently, the encyclopedia that anyone can edit is also the one that anyone can destroy. This is yet one more in a string of AfDs created by this nominator, none of which appear to have any evidence of WP:BEFORE being addressed. Simply stating "Not notable. Just because he knew Johnny Cash..." doesn't cut it. The sources in the article and those readily available in reliable and verifiable sources all speak to his notability as a businessperson. If it was p to me, Rusf10 wold be topic banned from AfD. Alansohn (talk) 23:10, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. The article appears to pass GNG and at present is in a NPOV state. Just because it was created by an account with the purpose of advertising, does not mean that it is still the case (that it is still advertising in nature). Due to the fact that Wikipedia is editable by anyone, articles can be improved and have advertising content/puffery removed and can also be improved upon as sources are found (or by copy editing etc.).

As stated by Anachronist, while it is not advisable for editors who have a conflict of interest with a particular subject to edit it, some editors in the scenario do decide to make that choice and are capable of creating a decent article. It is an article that has been around for quite a while and is about a notable individual. As stated by DGG, in its current state, the article is neutral in its point of view and notable.

In reviewing the justifications of the !votes, I have come to the conclusion that it is the consensus of this discussion's participants that this Articles for Deletion discussion be closed as "keep". (non-admin closure) TheSandDoctor (talk) 00:12, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think the title shouldn't have an "and" in it (should be "Trotsky during World War I" or something similar).

  • Redirect to Israeli MIAs. Delete reluctantly.

  • Keep - Although I see the argument with the WP:BLP1E, I do not believe it applies here, as the search has been dropped and restarted multiple times making it multiple events. The article utilizes sources that show coverage over a 20 years and there I believe it meets WP:LASTING and WP:GNG. - GalatzTalk 18:26, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, possibly rename to missing person case and not to the person. Note this BIO1E and not BLP1E (there is little to no expectation he is alive). There are copious and on going RSes covering this (yes, the searches and new leads are still being covered - every skeleton someone finds leads to a story). He does not meet SOLDIER, the case however amply meets GNG.Icewhiz (talk) 18:40, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete- Since we should be treating this as an event: "not every incident that gains media coverage will have or should have a Wikipedia article. A rule of thumb for creating a Wikipedia article is whether the event is of lasting, historical significance, and the scope of reporting (national or global reporting is preferred)", according to WP:EVENTCRIT. No sign of diverse coverage; the same media outlets have just provided the same routine updates with little to no significant information. No new leads can be expected in a missing persons case, but the lack of a historical significance is what keeps me from voting anything other than delete. All we have here is a old news story on one event that is fueled by media speculation and theories but no actual indications of notability.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 20:05, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    • The sources are far from narrow. Every Israeli news organization has covered this in depth multiple times (even dozens of times) over the last 20 years. NCRIME (or GNG) requires national coverage. This has also been covered in international news sources, the US congress, the European council, and several books.Icewhiz (talk) 05:14, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete- unfortunately there are a lot of MIA cases. Despite the media attention, I can't see why his case is more important than others. He was not notable before the mia incident, therefore he still is not notable.--Rusf10 (talk) 01:16, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Since its establishment, Israel has been in a constant state of conflict with its neighbors. Torture or murder of Israeli soldiers who are captured by enemies is considered de rigueur and a military directive allegedly directs soldiers to kill their comrades rather than let them be captured alive. There are only five Israeli soldiers who are missing in action. For the duration of his captivity, each will continue to be the subject of significant and sustained news coverage of the type that makes a person notable. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 06:29, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Admittively, I still believe most of what I wrote still applies to this article and the keep !votes up until now were not at all convincing or stronger applications of policy. But then I read MS's comment. He accurately describes why this person will have enduring significance in a way I, and really no one else, thought of.

Mark Kevlin Ryan was a direct copy of Paranormal City - nothing to merge - did a bold redirect.PRehse (talk) 15:34, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. (Both Paranormal City, and the Mark Kevlin Ryan redirect). Per nom, apart from the 2014 coverage in a local (Wicklow) newspaper, there doesn't seem to be any non-trivial coverage of the subject. Independent of the article, I can find no non-trivial coverage. Within the article, the claimed coverage seems spurious at best. (The claims on international awards and coverage in music magazines would presumably be easily verified - but the links are to the magazines homepages, and a search through - for example - the Hot Press and NME back issues archives do not return anything. Similarly, the claim on "chart topping" would seem easily verified. However, a search through the historical IRMA chart listing returns nothing - and the "screengrab" from someone's iPhone, purportedly showing a [fleeting?] placement in iTunes doesn't meet WP:RS). In short, the subject doesn't seem to meet either the GNG or WP:MUSICBIO criteria. And the article seems to substantively skirt the guidelines against introducing deliberately false, exaggerated, promotional or vanity content. Guliolopez (talk) 16:44, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Obvious vanity page by SPA editor containing un-verifyable claims and heavily “sourced” with any and every possible mention/appearance on social media/user download sites/blogs, small-time media, etc. While a few of these appear legit media they are basically extracting content from self-hype.

No evidence of notability at all in the article - zero RS evidence of third-party notability; if cut to RSes it would have literally zero text left. Very little evidence in Google News - press releases, passing mentions in news articles. This needs RSes actually about the subject to have anything to talk about at all. PROD was contested without the issues being addressed. Needs RSes actually about the subject to survive. David Gerard (talk) 12:24, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: The certain number of media publications about Dr Zhavoronkov was added with the corresponding links. These publications clearly meet the criteria of WP notability as substantial and popular secondary resources. Here is a part of them: Huffington Post,[1] Financial Times Pensions Expert,[2] Next Avenue,[3] and New Scientist.[4]. As well, the primary sources were replaced by proper secondary sources also contributing the fit to WP notability guideline. According to these changes, the raised issues about WP notability guidelines and references to primary sources can be successfully solved and closed.

  • Keep. Meets WP:PROF criterion #1 (significant impact in scientific discipline and scholarly discipline, broadly construed). With 108 verified scientific publications in refereed scientific journals and the scientific, humanitarian, moral and humanitarian, economic, geopolitical, and existential significance of biogerontology and in silico and aging research, the article Dr. Zhavaronkov MUST be maintained (and perhaps developed further). What may be needful is a collegial assessment of the importance of Dr. Zhavaronkov's scientific and other ideas, but that's not typically the forte of Wikipedia editors. MaynardClark (talk) 17:14, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I have concerns over WP:PROF criterion #1. Nearly all of Alex's scholarly publications are joint publications, with as many as a dozen contributors. I couldn't find any examples of him being the Lead Investigator (I may have overlooked some). His books seem to me to be popularizations of work in the field (not necessarily his work, rather than scholarly contributions. This is also true of the popular press references, which may well derive from press packets and publisher propaganda, rather than from serious evaluation. In the business of evaluating candidates for promotion and tenure in academia, where I have extensive experience, these would be red flags. In fact, at no point in the article is an effort made to explain exactly what the nature of his contribution is, that makes him so notable. The company he founded seems to have no company (officers, directors, managers) other than himself. If the article ends up being kept, I would certainly recommend that it be tagged with the template: "like resume". --Vicedomino (talk) 16:37, 30 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to see a resume online somewhere, which would be accessible through the article. However, a Google 'search' for just his name comes up with "About 147,000 results" in 0.75 seconds. MaynardClark (talk) 16:52, 30 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
In biomedical sciences the lead author/group leader is usually the last. Most of the research papers you see in PubMed list Alex Zhavoronkov as the corresponding author.

  • Uncertain. Probably not notable. An analysis of the google scholar page shows only one are articles with citation over 100, and it is a review article, not a research article--and such articles characteristically have abnormally high citation counts. Of his research articles, I see counts of 91,73, 67 49, 48 67 , which in the extremely highly cited field he works in, is borderline for notability . His association as editor of a rather dubious journal does not add to notability . But, Vicedomino, it is almost universal for experimental work in the biomedical sciences to have multiple authors, and it is in fact true that either the first or last position usually represents the senior author, who is very often the head of the laboratory. As a rough gudie, a singe-authored publication in this field is likely to be more speculation than research. DGG ( talk ) 00:59, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Considering the number of waffle words (almost universal, usually represents, very often, rough guide), I don't see how these statistical surveys can have any sort of value.

  • Delete. Friends, thanks for your help, but please let it be deleted, the page is not worth your time. And I took the time to create a profile here to stop this distraction. I also asked my team members to stop any attempts to rescue or improve this page.

After a brief correspondence with the requesting editor David Gerard, it was clear that the request to delete came after our PR around the paper on AI and blockchain. A quick web search shows that David is an opponent of blockchain technology and I respect him and his view, since 99% of these projects are of fraudulent nature and I also do not like Bitcoin (while the technology itself is very useful as a distributed ledger). The work he is doing is valuable, since pseudo science, alternative medicine and "anti-aging" using ancient methods are a substantial problem in several fields my team is active in. We also do work in this area by trying to collect the data from the nutraceutical industry to understand what may have some positive effects and what does not using systems like Young.AI, but it will take a year or two before we may be able to publish. But evaluating human biases is another interesting area and we published non-peer reviewed paper on that Diversity prepub and NewScientist covered it. I would really like to expand this work into evaluating the various biases in Wikipedia when I get a bit more time. Some of these biases may be subconscious and not driven by any tangible reward function. I will create a presentation slide to see if anyone would like to collaborate. If you know any veteran editors or scientists, who are intimately familiar with the Wikipedia ecosystem and the MediaWiki platform, who would like to get involved, contact me to collaborate. It may be 3-12 months project. Uncovering the individual biases and group biases using AI is a very interesting subject and we are using the data from the International Aging Research Portfolio to do study scientific bias and the reasons why many clinical trials fail. To address some of the comments on this page:

  • 1. Most of our papers are not in Beal-list journals and some of the journals on this list got there because of some of the flaws in the past. Aging has a peer review process where sometimes you get 6 reviews back. And what is important is who publishes in the journal. Many of the top-rated scientists in the aging field do publish there from time to time.
  • 2. I do not have a bench in a lab since 2007. We are a bioinformatics/AI group. And we always promote the young scientists, who do the work as first authors.
  • 3. Regarding the press releases on our papers. I genuinely think that it is important to popularize research and technology innovation in every way, shape or form. Otherwise, people will talk only about the current president, Kim Kardashian and other topics that are distracting the attention from the elephant in the room - age-related diseases and the dire state of the global economy. I explained my views on science PR in a presentation at the bottom of this interview recent interview. It also has a brief introduction to quantified altruism. In my opinion, there is no greater good than extending productive longevity for everyone on the planet, but most people have very different objective functions.

No hidden agenda here. It would be great to have the page taken down. What would help is a separate non-wiki website to track the conferences we present at or organize list of talks and conferences. AlexZhavoronkov (talk) 13:59, 2 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Biographies of former mayors, in a city not large enough to hand its mayors an automatic presumption of notability just for existing. But the articles aren't referenced well enough to pass WP:NPOL #2 as the subject of significant press coverage -- the only source present in all but one of these articles is a single omnibus list of all of the city's past mayors, which isn't enough by itself to clear WP:GNG, and the only one that cites any source besides that just cites the "finding aid" file to an archive of the subject's personal papers (which is not a notability-assisting source in and of itself either.) We require much more substance, and much more sourcing, than this before we consider a mayor notable enough to have an encyclopedia article. And don't be fooled by the statement that Leonidas Guthrie was a "Delaware circuit court judge", either — it means the Delaware County in Indiana that Muncie is the seat of, not Delaware the state, but county court judges aren't considered automatically notable either.

How is there "no evidence of a problem"? Wikipedia's notability standard for mayors, as spelled out by WP:NPOL, requires significant reliable source coverage, not just the ability to single-source the baseline fact that they existed to a blurb in an omnibus listicle. And incidentally, it's entirely unnecessary and inappropriate to provide a separate identical "keep" rationale for each individual article in a batch nomination — if you're going to make the same argument for each article, then you need to do that as one "vote" that addresses them all rather than as eight separate "votes". Bearcat (talk) 18:12, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No two mayors are alike, and I have chosen here to treat the contributions of each article as precious enough to be worthy of individual attention and respect.  Unscintillating (talk) 17:41, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You've got some curious definition of "precious" if unsubstantive stub articles that are all sourced exclusively to a single omnibus listicle surpasses it. Bearcat (talk) 03:12, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To answer your question, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.  You were advised of discussion guidelines when you posted your nomination.  You were also advised, "When discussing an article, remember to consider alternatives to deletion", but you have chosen to ignore our deletion policyUnscintillating (talk) 17:41, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Absence of evidence may not be evidence of absence, but absence of adequate sourceability most certainly is a Wikipedia deletion criterion. HTH, HAND. Bearcat (talk) 03:12, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:VAGUEWAVE is part of WP:ATA, and explains that just pointing to a policy is not helpful to explain an editor's viewpoint. 
"Adequate sourceability" is not a policy based term.  Not only could this relate to either WP:DEL7 or WP:DEL8, it might be read as a moving the goalpost argument, or as misdirection to avoid responding regarding WP:BEFORE and WP:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion, or as an attempt to shift the burden of evidence in the mind of the closer.  Unscintillating (talk) 17:11, 26 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
DEL7 and DEL8 are both listed as reasons why an article should be deleted, yet for some reason you keep raising them as if they represented counterarguments that somehow militated against deletion. And nobody moved any goalposts, either: a mayor's notability is conditional on his or her depth of sourceability, not just on being able to single-source the basic fact that he or she existed.

Question for nominator: How would the deletion of these articles make Wikipedia a better encylopedia. What is the problem with their existence? Egaoblai (talk) 03:30, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lack of adequate sourcing to demonstrate that they pass a notability standard. Wikipedia's job is not to keep minimally sourced articles about everybody who ever existed; our job is to keep properly sourced articles about people who pass one or more notability criteria.

I note that the creator of the article on Paul pluta has been attempting to add content into Queensland Rail about the current problems with Queensland Rail (the Rail Fail) and Paul Pluta's role in predicting it (see diff) but this has been edit-warred away (probably more for style reasons than substance).

An unsanctioned content fork of Adobe Lightroom Classic CC that suffers from lack of notability. (The latter formerly held the "Adobe Lightroom" title but was moved as part of the forking.) It is a mistake to create a new article as soon as a developer releases a slightly different edition of the same thing, especially when there isn't sufficient contents to justify it. This certain edition has no independent notability of its own and inherits its notability from the "Adobe Lightroom" topic. Codename Lisa (talk) 08:19, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Adobe has 2 separate products:
1. "Adobe Lightroom Classic CC"
Version 7.0.1
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Lightroom_Classic_CC
https://www.adobe.com/uk/products/photoshop-lightroom-classic.html
2. "Adobe Lightroom CC"
Version 1.0.1
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Lightroom_CC
https://www.adobe.com/uk/products/photoshop-lightroom.html
The comment above says:

It is a mistake to create a new article as soon as a developer releases a slightly different edition of the same thing, especially when there isn't sufficient contents to justify it.

However this is NOT what has happened. "Adobe Lightroom CC" is NOT a "slightly different edition of the same thing". It is a completely different product to the older "Adobe Lightroom Classic CC".
I would suggest that having 2 pages for the 2 products is the correct way to go, and that the page for the new product "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Lightroom_Classic_CC" needs to be expanded.
I have already set the version number, and others should start adding details to the new page.
Geoff Rimmer Gepree (talk) 09:44, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for three reasons:
  • First, notability is not inherited, not even by likeness of the name. If they are to be treated as two completely different products, independent notability is required. This is actually very important, because co-branding is a well-known tactic for an unknown product to piggyback the success of a well-known product.
  • Second, similarity of both name and function of the app is the criteria for the subjects being covered in the same article; hence the split was a mistake. We had such discussions about .NET Core too, which ended up in .NET Framework article. (Both are totally notable.) We had it about Windows 8.1 too, which remained part of Windows 8 article until we had material to justify a new article. (Both are totally notable.) Sometimes, we've had no discussions but the community made the right decision: e.g. Windows Server 2012 R2 is part of the Windows Server 2012 article. (Both are totally notable.)
  • Third, we do not have enough contents. When an article bristles with contents, a split is justified independent of the notability status. This is not the case here.

  • Delete I agree with Codename Lisa and FleetCommand. New product is not notable enough yet for its own article and can be covered by existing article (maybe this one should be moved to "Adobe Lightroom" or "Adobe Lightroom CC" as its current name "Adobe Lightroom Classic CC" is too specific). Pavlor (talk) 11:23, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep
    Despite of the name, Lightroom CC is unfortunately by no means neither an update of Lightroom CC 7 (now "Classic") nor a fork, but a completely different re-architectured software (of the same purpose) Adobe calls it on its web-page "all-new" Lightroom CC and a "photo service" - while LR CC Classic still is referred to as an "app". It is not even compatible with Lightroom CC Classic and has less features than LR CC Classic. Also it features a cloud-based database, and not a local folder-based and catalogue-managed image storage. The similarities of Lightroom CC and Lightroom CC Classic is very much like the similarity between Apple Photos and Apple Aperture.

Christiano01, 30th November 2017

Media coverage of the new version I found so far is centered around (and based on) the Adobe announcement (Adobe MAX conference): cnet.com [15], theverge.com [16], techrepublic.com [17] etc. Once there are solid reviews of this new product, stand-alone article will be justified, I think.

We still don't have enough material. WP:SIZERULE. I am surprised why the nominator came here to undo the split. As far as I can read from the policy, she could have acted boldly and remerged. Maybe I do.
There is something else that bothers me too: This Christiano01 account was made yesterday, and seemingly knew about this discussion beforehand. Make no mistake, we welcome new editors. But we are on the watchout to see if they are truly editors or just a one-time meat puppet.
FleetCommand (Speak your mind!) 09:10, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Of course. There is not enough RS yet to support new article, which is not even needed as all content can be kept within the older article. Need for possible separate article can be discussed later, when more RS arrive. You are right it makes sense to have both products (which are similar in purpose and name) in one article. As of suspected "meat puppet" issue, both keep (or sort of keep) "votes" have different reasoning: one looks like company position, the other like disgruntled user not happy with the new Adobe product policy (sure, looks like SPA, but even plain IP comments have weight, if these are policy based...).

Appears to be just an ordinary church, which by definition isn't notable. MisfitToys' rationale in the first nomination is no reason to keep, and the lack of evidence for keeping makes me question whether there's any coverage: churches with such a name are hard to get sourcing (it's a rather generic name), and since it's a big-city church founded in the 1940s, it's highly unlikely to have a history with significant coverage.

Notwithstanding a few gossipy sources, the subject does not have any claim to notability. She went to college, got married and has a job. What's notable there? Her kinship is irrelevant per WP:NOTINHERITED. WWGB (talk) 00:52, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    • Those cites merely confirm that Bona studied in Hong Kong, and was appointed to the Censorship Board (a low-profile bureaucratic role). What is notable there? WWGB (talk) 01:11, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • Usually when someone enrolls in a university in Hong Kong, The Daily Telegraph does not write a piece on them, Hong Kong legislators will not call for their enrollment to be reviewed, and students in that person's home country do get beaten up by police while protesting that enrollment. Similarly the fact that her appointment to a relatively low-profile bureaucratic role gets coverage from Voice of America, indicates that the person being appointed is notable, because it's certainly not the position in and of itself that conveys notability. The sources in the article as it stands now clearly show that Bona Mugabe meets WP:GNG. Yes she managed to achieve that through the brutal regime of her father, but she has met it nonetheless. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:27, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article is almost an exact copy of List of German military equipment of World War II which covers the topic more thoroughly. Creating a page for just the Wehrmacht would open the door for redundant pages on the SS, Kriegsmarine, and whatever other Nazi German branch that would illustrate pretty much the same thing.--Molestash (talk) 18:05, 26 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Merge. AfD is the wrong venue. I'm only !voting merge since List of German military equipment of World War II has sub-pages for the navy and air-force, with the actual listing in the article itself being land forces. The topic itself could be notable standalone (and if List of German military equipment of World War II were evolved to link to here and contain a summary - that would be fine too). The list contents (which also includes service dates and pictures for vehicles) are not the same as List of German military equipment of World War II - so a merge would be required in any event. Note that we have lists of equipment for different service branches of other armies - e.g. - List of equipment of the United States Army during World War II, List of weapons of the United States Marine Corps, List of equipment of the United States Army. Different service branches sometimes differ widely in actual kit employed (e.g. - the USMC continues use of the Cobra attack helicopters vs. the army's Apache - and a multitude of other kit differences).Icewhiz (talk) 07:24, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. This list seems nicer/more usable than the more general "...military equipment" list, though. Haikon 12:58, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reverse merge -- The present target refers to "main" articles on the navy and air force. When these are removed, there will be army equipment and missiles (including secret weapons). The difficulty may arise from the American view that treats the navy as military, contrary to the proper meaning of that word, which is derived from miles - Latin for soldier. After merging the army section, it may be useful to convert the present article into a dab-page, though that would require the missiles to be moved to another article. Technically the SS divisions were organisationally not part of the Wehrmacht, but their equipment was probably the same, so that the distinction is insignificant. Posssibly the target should be List of German army equipment of World War II. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:48, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete First of all, Wehrmacht meant all three services; the Army was the Heer. Now, I realise that in some countries, for bureacratic reasons, the different services were equipped with very different equipment. But in the Wehrmacht we have all three services (plus the SS) all fielding ground troops, and all equipped with the same weapons, ending up with a lot of duplication and not much value.

  • Keep - It looks like a real distinct population center to me. [25] Not having an WP article in the language of the location of the topic is not grounds for deletion. I recently created one for a Greek topic that doesn't have an article in Greek WP. --Oakshade (talk) 06:17, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:GEOLAND and well established precedent per WP:PLACEOUTCOMES: populated, legally recognized places are typically considered notable, and the village is located here: 55°19′50″N 9°03′25″E / 55.330519°N 9.056850°E / 55.330519; 9.056850. I have cleaned up the article and added a few sources. The village does not have an article on Danish Wikipedia, that's correct, but looking at the list of place names mentioned in da:Rødding Sogn (Vejen Kommune), and Brændstrup is among them, it's obvious that creating stubs for small villages isn't the first priority on da.wp.

Not a notable software product. No sign WP:GNG or any SNG is met, and all sources are primary sources. power~enwiki (π, ν) 05:14, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: I cannot understand, some Wikipedia pages use all primary sources but still keep alive. While a newly created WELSIM page with solid evidence including website, government documents, pictures, trademark, and 3rd party links will be deleted. For example, the page of "Abaqus" majorly cites its own website, the first citation of Forbes is even invalid. The page of "JMAG" has totally three citations but two are broken and one refers own website. The page of "JCMsuite" cites many journal papers but cannot be verified unless you have full access to those journal papers. The page of "RFEM" only has two citations which all links to own website. The page of "Quickfield" even does not have the citation at all. I fully understand that spam and fraud should be removed. However, WELSIM is a bona-fide product with solid evidence and can be kept in the Wikipedia. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Goeasyon (talkcontribs)

Footnote: If all these articles are deleted, then Category:Punk-O-Rama albums should also be deleted, as it will be empty.

My previous nomination for deletion of these articles, discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Warped Tour 2002 Tour Compilation, was closed with a suggestion to break up the proposed deletion list into smaller groups. This is the second of those groups. None of the articles have been improved since that deletion discussion, in which most participants (including myself) expressed the opinion that these articles should be deleted, and the primary objection (expressed by two participants) was procedural – based on the idea that too many articles of different types were grouped into a single deletion nomination. This new nomination should rectify that.

  • Speedy Keep.
  • 1. By putting all these different pages together it seems to force users here into an "all or nothing" choice.
  • 2. As always, notability is in the eye of the beholder, and while we have certain standards, an article for deletion request means the burden rests on the nominator to assert why something is not notable, which means going further than simply saying "does not pass". The nominator must explain why they believe it is not notable.
  • 3.furthermore, it's good policy for people who wish to remove information from a global encyclopedia to at least be familiar with the topic at hand. How can someone say something is not notable if they do not know the topic? Are you familiar with the American Punk scene?
  • 4. If someone was to examine this nomination thoroughly, they would see that the second to last link you have added to the list is Punk-O-Rama. This, unlike the others is not an album, but a description of the entire series. To have made a top level nomination for an album and then put the page for the entire series in the list of things to delete, is not good form and goes against procedure. It would be like someone pointing out that a page for a Pokemon is not notable in itself, and then adding Pokemon to the AFD nom. regardless whether Punk-O-Rama is appropriate for inclusion here, it must have it's own AFD and cannot be lumped in with others.
  • 5. So there are in fact two questions here: A. Are the individual Punk O Rama albums valid topics? B. Is the Punk O Rama series a valid topic?
  • 6.If the answer to A and B is no. Then seperate nominations must be made. If the answer to A and B is Yes, then we should keep. If the answer to A is no and B is yes, then the contents of should be merged with B.
  • 7. As someone who considers themselves into turn of the century Punk music, I'm definitely aware of the Punk O Rama albums and they seemed quite ubiquitous to me. Are they notable to the American/UK Punk scene? undoubtedly. I do not know, but it would be interesting to see sales etc. The fact that the series lasted for so long and had over 80 bands on it, surely plays in their favour. More research needed I think.
  • 8. As if by magic, the second Page of a quick google search turns up this article on AVclub, an article entitled "Punk-o-Rama captured and killed the 90s pop punk boom" [2].

Regarding item 2, notability is not really a matter of "the eye of the beholder" – it is established by such criteria as having in-depth coverage in multiple reliable sources that are independent of the topic (see WP:GNG). These articles don't show that, and don't contain any assertion that the topics are notable (e.g., significant awards given for an album or high sales). Regarding some of the other comments, I don't believe it is necessary to have separate nominations in order to have separate outcomes – we can decide to keep one or more of these articles without keeping all of them, despite them having been nominated for deletion together. You seem to think that the Punk-O-Rama article should be kept. Currently that article is very poorly sourced and contains no indication of notability. It cites only a self-published statement saying that the compilation series has been discontinued, and a self-published dead link. I acknowledge that I should have listed that one first instead of late in the list – that is an artifact of the way the nomination was developed. —BarrelProof (talk) 00:32, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose I have now added a few sources to establish the album's notability. Maestro2016 (talk) 15:11, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, these references do not succeed in establishing notability. Gopal and Moorti (2008) is a passing mention not even comprising a full sentence. Discogs is user-generated content and not a WP:RS. The AllMusic link is malformed and returns a 404 error but even the correct artist link neither mentions this album nor lists it in the artist discography. The India Today link is just to the magazine's Google Books page and has no indication of any issue or article about this album. None of these are in any way significant. The only reference that may not be is Sheikh (2012) and that is a mere three sentences. To satisfy WP:NMUSIC, the phrase "...but the album was successful..." in Sheikh needs both qualification and verification. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 16:02, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I've addressed some of these issues. What about now? Maestro2016 (talk) 17:21, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Maestro2016:, I suggest you read this essay which discusses the practice of "reference bombing," which is similar to what you've done with this article. In short: adding multiple poor references tends to be detrimental to, rather than positive for, the case in retaining an article. In linking to reference bombing, I want to make it very clear that I am not accusing you of bad-faith editing such as attempting to conceal anything but rather that having many poor or passing references tends to strengthen the impression of non-notability. That is, if such obvious diligent attempts to substantiate notability are only finding cites of this quality, it is probably has not ...received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject...
In particular, Apple Music download links are not WP:RS, not being independent (they are trying to sell you the album, after all). Hub and Jeffries (2003) suffer the same issue as Gopal and Moorti (2008) mentioned above and the India Today reference remains unverifiable. I tried to independently verify the article reference you gave and, despite having access to professional and academic article databases, cannot find it. The quote you added seems to indicate that this was a contemporary album review, but even that requires verification. I hope this helps explain my views. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:57, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The India Today reference can be verified through Google. As for Discogs and Apple Music, I was unaware they were unreliable sources. In that case, I'll remove the Apple Music reference. Maestro2016 (talk) 18:27, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose absolutely not. A rather poor nomination if I may say so. One problem that should have been picked up is that there is reference to the album under the name Boom Boom alone, for which there are plentiful book sources. We haven't even started to look for Urdu sources, which are completely legitimate on en.wp when English sources lack. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:41, 2 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As this title may be better placed to cover "both". Whatever the target of the merge/redirect, as noted, there is absolutely no reason to have two articles covering substantively the same subject.

  • Keep I know nothing about Prichard and I've never seen the article before. I clicked on the link labeled "news" as part of the AfD header and found the following sources on the first page of listings. There was "Skip Prichard Named OCLC President and CEO " from Information Today, Inc. from back in 2013, and both "Q&A: Skip Prichard: OCLC chief invested in sharing knowledge, leadership skills", from The Columbus Dispatch and "ALA 2017 Spotlight: Four Questions with Skip Prichard", from Publishers Weekly from this month. Sources in the article, such as "An Interview with Skip Prichard" in American Libraries, only add to the breadth of reliable and verifiable, in-depth sources about Prichard. I'm sure that the nominator and the participant who voted to delete are justifiably irked that this article didn't properly graduate through the AfC process, again one I know nothing about. But the claim of notability as head of OCLC and the ample sources about the subject in the article and available to be added all meet and surpass the notability standard. It's not clear, given how trivially I found these sources, that the bare minimum requirements of WP:BEFORE to search for sources was met by the nominator. I hope that both Scope creep and Johnpacklambert will withdraw this AfD and / or reconsider their votes, or at least offer a more meaningful justification for deletion than the issue of a "[f]ailed draft in WP:AFC moved into mainspace after failing review" in the face of the ample sources identified. Alansohn (talk) 04:34, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Alansohn, The reason I Afd's him, was I thought he was non notable. All the sources you have provided are interviews and press releases. The information today article, says In the press release, Prichard says, That is a press release. They are not news, and are not secondary sources. They are a mixture of Q and A for the sellling his book, press releases and interviews, which fails qualify. scope_creep (talk) 08:35, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • The source Skip Prichard Named OCLC President and CEO is broader than a press release or an interview. It is a news report – from a news outlet that is respectable enough to have its own Wikipedia article – giving significant coverage of the subject. Interviews are a perfectly acceptable source for establishing notability as long as they appear in a reliable source. It is not unusual for news outlets to base an article on a press release, but when they research the subject and provide more coverage than a simple regurgitation of the release, we have to take into account the reputation of the news outlet and its editorial function in fact-checking. From our article on Information Today, Inc., there is real evidence that the publication is "widely cited by information professionals" in its field, meeting our expectations of a reliable source. I don't agree that you can dismiss this source as "fails qualify" on a your interpretation of our sourcing policies, and if you disagree with a source's reliablity, we have the WP:RSN where you can get more opinions. That should have been part of WP:BEFORE in this case. --RexxS (talk) 11:25, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • Just as a side note Infotoday lists at the bottom of the article you provided some sponsored links and the very first one is " The OCLC Next blog provides insight about work being done by and for libraries worldwide." I think this may mean that we can question the independent nature of this source as the article is in-depth coverage of the CEO of a company that pays to have its blog in this source. I would also point out that the person who created this article, who I have been told on my talk page is a librarian, has been adding a lot of external links to the collections in Wayne State University Libraries (which is very much in line with the WP:GLAM project so no problem there I think). The dean of this organisation is quoted in your source as having written an open letter in support of Prichard. I am not suggesting that there is anything underhand going on but there may be a small COI issue that may need some disclosure from the article creator. Domdeparis (talk) 11:58, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • Historical note -- the OCLC Next Blog was launched in February 2016 (the Information Today note you are referring to is I think from 2013). Also the dean of libraries at Wayne State University retired last year and a new dean came in 2017. And in any case saying that a librarian has a conflict of interest because her bosses boss (or even bosses bosses boss....) has written a letter of support for an individual seems like a bit of a stretch? The article has at this point had contributions well beyond that of the original editor.

  • Delete fails WP:GNG for me - the "ample sources identified" by Alansohn are only marginally-above-routine coverage in trade journals (librarian) and local newspapers (Ohio, where OCLC is based). Meanwhile, "leadership blogger" in the lede and a yet-to-be-published book in the "Publications" section scream WP:SPAM. That this article was pushed into mainspace just 2 months before the book's release date (6 February 2018) can only make one ponder. Wikipedia is no WP:SOAPBOX. Thanks and regards, Biwom (talk) 11:18, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Clearly meets GNG. Furthermore, the nominator's claim that the article was "moved into mainspace after failing review" is false. It was reviewed, by User:Brock-brac, and as a result, moved to article space. I concur with that action. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:33, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: In my role at WMF I run The Wikipedia Library and OCLC is a major partner of ours, so take this strong conflict of interest declaration as you must (with a huge grain of salt, perhaps). OCLC is the largest library organization in the world and Prichard has been a leading figure in the publishing world for well over a decade. Skip has been featured in the leading industry publications: American Libraries Magazine (twice), Publisher's Weekly, Library Journal, Information Today, and Book Expo America (C-SPAN). Outside of these leading library publications, Harvard Business Review wrote of his prominent social profile:
    "Many social CEOs aren’t social just because they have a company to run; they see value in being social in every aspect of their lives. They care about more than the bottom line. They give back, they mentor, and they care about real social issues that have nothing to do with Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. We refer to those who act consistently in a collaborative, generous way as “relentless givers.” They constantly share what they know, connect others and — often for no other reason than because it is the right thing to do — they do good. One standout example is OCLC’s Skip Prichard, who blogs on leadership and shares insights from his favorite authors." Take this information as you will. With my admittedly close connection to OCLC, I have a hard time seeing how its very visible and influential CEO is not notable. Cheers, Ocaasi t | c 17:49, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Prichard served as VP of LexisNexis, president and CEO of ProQuest and pres. and CEO of Ingram, all 3 very large companies in the information industry. Above that, Prichard is a gifted speaker, who also writes enthusiastically about leadership and information technology. You know what's strange? That this longtime publishing innovator (dixit Publishers Weekly) didn't get a Wiki article five years ago. Vysotsky (talk) 20:02, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Per Vysotsky and others. CEO of OCLC alone is a very big deal, this is a leader in his field. Montanabw(talk) 21:04, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. You're kidding, right? OCLC is second only to the Library of Congress in its importance to libraries in the US. Gamaliel (talk) 22:03, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I find that the leaders in their field tend to be covered more in the relevant trade press, professional journals and the like, given the preference of the mainstream media to focus on politics, sport and "celebrities" and a preference for stories about how people fail or do bad things (the sensational) rather than how they achieve or do good things. So we have to look at reliable sources relative to the subject matter as per WP:RSCONTEXT. Kerry (talk) 23:47, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment You seem to be conflating the importance of the OCLC with the man. Notability is not inherited. Indeed, so far I have been offered a mixture of trade papers entries, interviews and press releases. Wikipedia deals in evidence, WP:BIO in instance, and WP:V. Gamaliel, Montanabw, where is your evidence. OCLC is second only to the Library of Congress isn't a rationale for WP:AFD. We deal in the physical actualite, the real acutialite. Not social comments, merely designed to add the voice. Where is the evidence? Vysotsky being a CEO is not automatically notable, and that doesn't make him notable. Size doesn't confer notablity. Source, evidence of presence, second and tertiary sources that are verifiable. Andy Mabbett, that secondary information provided on the WP:AFD reason. If you look at the talk page of WP:AFC, I argued for User:Brock-brac, to move on, and consider it a simple mistake. The reason it failed WP:AFC, was because it had no valid references. It strong enough to not fail WP:AFD. We must provide evidence that an bio articles subject is notable, otherwise it breaks both the Spirit and the Letter of Wikipedia. It can rely simple conjecture, he's cool, he is really, lets put in, because he runs the OCLC, which is a partner organization of WMF. We need real source. Real verifiable information. Not emotion. So far the references offered are routine coverage in trade journals. They need to be stronger than that. Ocaasi find sources that satisfy WP:BIO. scope_creep (talk) 00:05, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Could you try to be slightly less patronizing and mansplaining to a group of people who have 60+ years combined of experience editing Wikipedia? Thanks. Gamaliel (talk) 01:26, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Disagree. My keep was twofold. Of course "being a CEO is not automatically notable". But Pritchard is interesting because of the combination of having been a CEO of 3 companies in the information field (which in my opinion would suffice in this case) and because of his long-term view and his ability to reflect upon his field, for a general audience. Sources? Gosh, Publishers Weekly is not exactly the new kid on the block. Vysotsky (talk) 00:22, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Kerry, that is entirely subjective, no research has been done on it by WP, and can't be proven. Your statement smacks of emotion not reason, without any real evidence to support it, perhaps to support a desire for a keep vote, in this instance, where there is no evidence to satisfy WP:BIO. From my evidence, which is also subjective, most CEO's tend to makes waves, in one area or another, even in fairly obscure industries like Library Science. It is worth commenting Vysotsky, it is curious, he didn't get an article five years ago, but an article has automagically appeared, even though it was rejected at WP:AFC, 31 days before his book is out. If that is not mercenary advertising, which breaks WP:ADVERTISING, I don't know what is. User:Cunard is excellent at finding sources.scope_creep (talk) 00:26, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • scope_creep, you have had your chance to put your opinion as nominator and have (by starting this AfD) invited others to expresss their views. The reason to have a discussion is because things are rarely black-and-white and there is need for each of us to exercise our judgement in good faith. I would draw your attention to policy on AfD discussions, specifically the advice to "Avoid personal attacks against people who disagree with you; avoid the use of sarcastic language and stay cool". As a piece of practical emotional intelligence, if you don't show respect for other people's point of view, it will likely strengthen people's resolve against your position (regardless of its merits).

  • Comment Ok, Vysotsky taking it as read that PW, and Info Today are valid primary sources per arguments as they have articles, although it doesn't look it, where is the secondary sources? All your arguments are based on the fact that he is out there, and everbody knows him, and he's a good guy, where is the evidence to back it up? scope_creep (talk) 00:30, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • You're going to have to work out the difference between primary and secondary sources for biographies. A quality news article on a person or a book about them has passed through a process of editorial review. We rely on independent publishers that have a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy to offer us the reliability we need to write articles. A reporter's notes may well be a primary source for some events in a person's life, but the published article itself, having been subject to editorial scrutiny is a step removed and meets what we are looking for in a secondary source – see Wikipedia:Notability (people) for our guidelines on that. Examine a few contemporary biographies and see how much of them is sourced to coverage similar to what you're objecting to. Look at biographies of deceased individuals – you'll often find that short bios are almost invariably sourced to obituaries in the quality press. You may also consider the essay Wikipedia:Interviews to gain further insight to how these sort of news sources are used by editors for Wikipedia. --RexxS (talk) 11:17, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Sorry folks, I was a bit bolshie. I thought the article was created recently. I never realized it created a few months ago. scope_creep (talk) 12:12, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It is mind boggling that the person who was CEO of two prominent companies in the publishing/library world, and is currently the head of the most prominent libraries organization in the US (outside of government) is described as "completely non notable" [36]. That characterization is so stunningly poor that the rest of the critique is easily dismissed, including saying there is "no indication of notability." [37] There are plenty of sources given including sources prominent in the field, mainstream newspapers and Harvard Business Review. Also, out of thin air, phantom policies like "notability is not inherited" have been put forth. Ever since Wikipedia was started, we have always considered the position or title of a person as a signal of notability and we continue to do so. [38] [39] Is this article in great shape and is the prose consistent with what we'd like to see? No. But that's not the point of AfD and notability. Instead of being punitive and vindictive, let the article exist and let folks improve it. -- Fuzheado | Talk 16:20, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The sources in the article are enough to establish notability, as you'd expect for the head of such a notable organisation. – Joe (talk) 16:37, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I created this article originally regarding her business - however the article details information on her personal life now which she does not want on there. Rather than listing personal details about the designer can we remove them and create a more company focused bio. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NinaPfifer (talkcontribs) 15:32, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • If there is information that should not be public, please see Wikipedia:Contact us - Subjects for the best ways to contact Wikipedia in a way that allows us to deal with this. The mere fact that the subject does not wish things to appear in the article is not necessarily a reason for deletion, though. In any case, I have removed the "early life" section, which did not seem relevant (but sources for the date of birth might be re-used if it continues to be a point of disagreement with editors). —Kusma (t·c) 15:57, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep The subject seems significantly notable, per my rudimentary research. Anyway, the nominator is not arguing for deletion of the article, but purely for deletion of certain sections. While I would prefer a humane approach in BLPs, the current state of this BLP is acceptable, especially after Kusma's edits. Lourdes 16:07, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep Clearly passes WP:GNG, as even the most cursory search shows. Looking at NinaPfifer's contributions, the text of the article they created in 2007, and the statement "the article details information on her personal life now which she does not want on there", we can reasonably infer that this editor at least has a conflict of interest, and may well be a paid editor. The 2007 article was about Odabash, and was a promotional hagiography. As an interesting aside, the 2007 article had her born in 1967, later versions had 1970, and various editors since have tried to maintain this 1970 fiction, even though she was actually born in 1964.
