Delete per nominator....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:07, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. County sheriff, county commissioner and school board trustee are not offices that get a person past WP:NPOL in and of themselves, and neither the substance nor the depth of sourcing shown here are enough to demonstrate that he's somehow more notable than the thousands and possibly even millions of other county-level officeholders who have existed across the United States: the references here are entirely to the local media, and the most genuinely substantive thing they have to offer is that the city named an ambulance depot after him. Big deal. For added bonus, the article was created by User:Barrandassoc, strongly implying direct conflict of interest by one of his surviving relatives — but we're not a place to memorialize your own father, grandfather, uncle, brother, whatever he was. Bearcat (talk) 18:25, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • If this person is notable, then the COI is not a reason to delete. Contrariwise, if a subject is not notable, the lack of any COI is not a reason to retain. In short, the COI is not relevant to this discussion. The topic must stand or fall on its own merits. I haven't fully assessed those yet, nor looked for additional sources, so i have no final view on the decision. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 15:12, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm not saying that COI is a reason to delete in and of itself. However, it is necessary for people to be aware of the COI in the context of a deletion discussion. Bearcat (talk) 15:57, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - fails WP:POLOUTCOMES; we rarely keep articles on local county officials, especially of smaller rural counties. Bearian (talk) 01:45, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I could only find some limited local coverage for him, with no national or even statewide recognition. And since he has only ever held county-wide office, he also fails WP:POLOUTCOMES. Unfortunately not notable.--Slon02 (talk) 14:33, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

World records are more notable than world championships, as many cubers do not attend the championships. A single championship in a relatively obscure event in 2011 doesn't seem notable enough to merit a Wiki page.

Feandri is currently ranked 98th in the world for 4x4x4 blindfolded, his highest rank in any WCA event.[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tkwikihelper (talkcontribs) 21:41, June 13, 2017 (UTC)

I know, I know, how dare I nominate another Miss Universe pageant participant page? Well, because people keep writing them. Sure, the subject represents her country. But the Cayman Islands has a little over 56,000 inhabitants, approximately the size of Rocklin, California or Idaho Falls. Do we have articles about Miss Rocklin or Miss Idaho Falls? Of course we don't. Has she won Miss Universe? No, the event hasn't even taken place yet. Do we really need a page for every contestant in an event that hasn't happened yet. No, we don't. Is this article sourced by in-depth, substantial coverage from independent, reliable sources? No, the only source is the angelopedia, which is in no way an independent, reliable source, and should have been blacklisted by now for their spamming efforts. This article fails WP:GNG, fails WP:BIO and only barely scrapes by WP:A7. Please put it out of its misery. Mduvekot (talk) 22:47, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article topic—a zine & organization—lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) It is currently sourced to its own website (primary sources) and web, book, and ProQuest searches didn't find more than a passing mention of the anarchist zine or collective. There isn't enough reliable sourcing to describe the topic in encyclopedic depth, nevertheless to do basic justice to the topic. There are no worthwhile redirect targets. If someone finds more (non-English and offline) sources, please {{ping}} me. czar 22:19, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Per WP:GNG. Lacks sufficient coverage in secondary reliable sources. Comatmebro (talk) 22:38, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I've added some additional search terms. As noted above, a cursory glance over the book searches reveals many mentions. I haven't delved into them to see if any of them are non-trivial. I have a COI in that I am good friends with a member of the collective--I've asked them if they know of any press that could be used to cite this article. I note that this is often a problem with journals--other journals don't cite them so it is hard to prove notability. See arguments to that effect in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Salem Monthly and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Vancouver Voice. Valfontis (talk) 05:21, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There may be enough here to keep. It clearly existed at Berkeley back in the day.

But that was already established... As of now, we have no extensive coverage of the collective or zine in reliable sources that we can use to write an encyclopedia article czar 05:04, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is a real thing as far as I can tell. I searched for "客家娘酒" and found that an equivalent article exists on the Chinese Wikipedia as zh:客家黃酒. All the search results refer to "客家娘酒" as a specific type of rice wine. I'd say this article is slightly more than a cook book entry so there's no harm in keeping it.

I could find any significant sources in English, but of course I did not know the Chinese characters when I nominated. I would prefer it be merged and redirected until someone translates the Chinese page, because there is no way to expand it without Chinese language sources, and because currently it is little more then a recipe, which Deryck Chan acknowleges. I'm not sure we can call it "normal editing" when the sources for a subject are exclusively in the Chinese langugae or I would support improvement over redirecting/merging. Seraphim System (talk) 08:21, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The article contains enough content and sources to justify a standalone article per Wikipedia:Summary style. A merge would result in the loss of content like the "Folklore" section. It would be undue weight to merge Guangdong Hakka Mother Wine to rice wine.

The sources show that the subject is notable so I think it's fine to keep the article as standalone. It's probably more likely that a knowledgeable editor will expand Guangdong Hakka Mother Wine if it remains a standalone article as opposed to being merged.

Cunard (talk) 07:00, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well I agree it would be nice if someone expanded it. But the folklore section is three sentences long, it absolutely would not be undue to merge and redirect until that happens. Seraphim System (talk) 09:24, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think the "Method of production" and "Mother Wine Chicken" sections provide value to readers. I don't think the sections are so unfixable that they should just be completely deleted. Cunard (talk) 05:07, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Shortly after this article was created in 2012 I placed a Prod notice with the rationale "No evidence that this software meets the notability criteria". This was removed by the WP:SPA author with the comment "The page List_of_HTML_editors contains several other applications of this kind. Some of them are far less relevant than this one. So we should keep this one, too" which was an WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument. The article is little more than a feature list and remains poorly referenced: a press release, a feature review, and a dead link about once having received a "Best Web Tool Award" of unclear notability. My searches are finding nothing to suggest that the product ever attained notability, and the vendor has withdrawn it [1] so the article is unlikely to improve. Fails WP:NSOFT, WP:GNG.

I strongly suspect that this is a phantom location in Google Maps. The article says that it is just to the north from Moskushamn (a.k.a. Hiorthhamn), which is itself an abandoned settlement. Google search didn't return anything relevant (it mostly returns the abandoned settlement Pyramiden, and even excluding it yielded nothing useful). I have checked several maps returned by Google, without success (though few are detailed enough). As I have said, I strongly suspect that this is a mistaken entry - perhaps somebody mistook a note "Abandoned" belonging to the settlement Moskushamn for an actual settlement with the name "Abandoned".

  • Delete. The article, as written, contains no actual content or sourcing — to determine why the article was created, one has to carefully scan the infobox to locate the claim that he's the "incumbent acting governor of Pampanga". But firstly, I can find reliable source verification of neither this nor the corollary claim which was added to Governor of Pampanga that Lilia Pineda has taken a leave of absence at all. Secondly, even if she has taken a leave of absence, the "acting" replacement for a political officeholder is normally another political officeholder (e.g. the existing deputy or vice governor, a cabinet member, a high-ranking member of the legislature, etc.), not the absenting officeholder's unelected chief of staff (which is what Abad is claimed to have been prior to taking over as acting governor). And thirdly, I can't even find reliable source verification that somebody named Jon Abad was ever Pineda's chief of staff in the first place. All of which means that this is teetering dangerously close to the edge of being speediable as a WP:HOAX — the only possible way this isn't a complete crock of shit is if Pineda took a day or two of sick leave last week, so her chief of staff wasn't sworn in as "acting governor" in any official sense, but merely kept the paperwork flowing in his normal capacity as the supervisor of her office staff. And even if true, that would just mean he was doing his job, not acceding to hers, and wouldn't be particularly newsworthy or encyclopedic. Bearcat (talk) 14:12, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I applaud the creator of these pages for being so forward thinking, but we're not yet into June. Just because a band is in production (or even announced a release date) does not mean that they will finish the album by then. I am recommending draftification and/or userfication until we're a little bit closer to 2018 and there are actually hard dates (and actual album names).

  • Redirect per article creator above. Nate (chatter) 20:14, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The article is not too early, nor is the now linked for AfD List of 2018 albums which Primefac has linked to 2018 in heavy metal music for consideration of deletion. These lists are annual lists that provide listings of when bands are releasing albums or doing other interesting things, and the general requirement for notability is that each entry has to be supported in notability by an article from a reputable news source, which for both articles this has been done. I am approaching this from the List of 2018 albums. For the preceding year, the List of 2017 albums was created in June, not May, so it is true that List of 2018 albums is coming one month earlier, however there is in fact significant amount of press listing albums expected in 2018. Artists are stating in interviews and news articles that their albums will be released in 2018, and currently there is no article to list the announcements. An example of other articles that are stating results for 2018 are 2018 in film, which lists some films as untitled, and lists release dates that will have some change by release date, so it is a form of corporate planning, coupled with expectation of no delays, otherwise known as business speculation. Bands are corporations too (I think), and are also taking part in business speculation. For the article on films, there is even an article for three years in the future, 2020 in film, which is pushing the edge for speculation and fact. Another article is 2018 Copa Sudamericana, which lists countries that are attending, and number of berths, but is basically saying TBA for the teams. To Be Announced is a fair placeholder for unknown details, in this case for album titles. Artists create the music, but the record companies probably approve the titles, maybe later in the process, so the bands are stating their planned release dates, but are not coming up with all the details at once. It is not too early to be listing bands and album activity for 2018 if there is press coverage from acceptable news sources Mburrell (talk) 21:09, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I say keep since so many artists have plans to release albums in 2018. There's no guidelines (that I know of) that state when the creation of such an article can be created. For instance, some editors might think September is fine, yet another editor might think that's too early, so there would be the same issue. Since so many bands are already listed on this article and more importantly sourced, just keep it at this point. TheSickBehemoth (talk) 02:00, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Query Is this discussion to delete or redirect the selected articles trying to create a guideline for how soon an article for next years products can be created? Is there an informal rule to when an article can be created, such as saying 90 days out is absolutely fine, 180 days out is questionable but okay, maybe, but never 210 days out? If there are no rules, should rules or guidelines be created and posted, to guide users? Mburrell (talk) 21:43, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Mburrell, I'm not necessarily trying to create a guideline. I just think a page that is 100% full of "TBA" (as is currently the case with List of 2018 albums) contains no useful information and should be either redirected, drafted, or deleted until there actually is information to include (at the very least, some Album titles or release dates!). I've made this case (successfully) in other venues; for example, we draftified the page on President Trump's judge appointments when it had no actual names on it, and only moved it back to article space when Gorsuch was confirmed.

  • Comment Both of these articles are continuations of annual lists, so even if the articles are deleted or redirected at this point in time, eventually both articles will be created and survive as stand-alone lists. The issues per the above discussions appear to be when should the articles be created, what constitutes proper proof of albums for release in 2018, and how much information should be available for the article to not be just vague hand-waving at the future.
Is seven months prior to 2018 too early? What is the criteria for content the lists must have before they are eligible to survive? As one user stated, per WP:CrystalBall, speculation is not acceptable for the creation of the articles, so if the news sources are speculating, then it is too early to list them. However, if the news sources are stating as fact that an album will be released in 2018, then it is not speculation. Finally, if the articles in general are listing TBA for album titles, does that indicate speculation at this point, or is a lack of album names not critical at this juncture?

This article was tagged BLPPROD, and I added a source, making it ineligible for that criterion. There has been some edit warring at The Weather Channel about whether Cass is notable, so I'm posting this seeking a wider consensus.

There seem to be few reliable sources about her and other TWC hosts, so we might not be able to expand this beyond a summary of her on-air positions and awards. As for my !vote, it's neutral. —Guanaco 02:12, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. She's notable and it has a reliable source. Diako «  Talk » 08:20, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Diako1971: The notability guidelines state "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.". What significant coverage has Kelly Cass garnered in multiple sources? 331dot (talk) 08:57, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm thinking the article should be changed back to a redirect until she is written about more in more sources(which she isn't now from at least what I have seen). The article also seems to have been created by her husband [7] [8] who seems to feel that it is sexist and unfair to have an article about Kelly Cass' co-host and not her- but if she isn't written about as much, she wouldn't necessarily merit an article yet(WP:TOOSOON) even if her co-host(who does seem to have more things written about him) does. Her name can and probably should be placed in The Weather Channel just not as a link. 331dot (talk) 09:04, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not to throw him under the bus, but she has over five times as many real, authenticated followers on Social Media as he does (30x times as many on Facebook), so the statement above about who is "written about" more is not true. Keybeeny (talk) 15:04, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That may be true, but that's completely irrelevant because social media is not a reliable source, nor is our (WP editors') counting or other analysis thereof. DMacks (talk) 15:07, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
In the Year 2017 it is almost quaint to see the editors of Wikipedia trying to determine if someone is "noteworthy enough" using metrics which have passed into a bygone age. This question would not have even been raised without your unnecessary deletion of an entry which merely stated the fact that she is a host of AMHQ Weekend. We have easily established that fact, but now you feel it is necessary to determine if there is some other reason for mentioning or not mentioning it? Here she was on NBC Nightly News, seen by a far larger audience than CNN and TWC combined:
links
{{{1}}}
But there still needs to be a long drawn out discussion of whether or not it is accurate to state that she is host of AMHQ?? That's absurd.
The question was not whether there has been a lot of articles written about her which may be linked to on a PC, it was whether or not it is accurate to state on Wikipedia that she is the host of AMHQ. So you really need to just let it go and leave it to people who watch that channel, which apparently nobody here does. Which is fine, but if you did, you would also realize what a no-brainer it is to include Alexandra Wilson as host of Weather Underground as well. Keybeeny (talk) 15:53, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You are conflating mentioning her and their being a separate article about her (The latter being the subject under discussion). No article here is limited to those in the know; everyone can weigh in on any article. Again, no one disputes your wife is on TWC. That's not the issue. 331dot (talk) 15:59, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, with all due respect, that is indeed the issue. When someone adds an AMHQ host to a list of AMHQ hosts (of which there are only five in the entire world), if that person is in fact an AMHQ host, then they belong on that list and your insistence that you are the arbiter of whether or not they belong on that list, even after having been presented with proof of such, amounts to you just ****. Keybeeny (talk) 16:16, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
User:Keybeeny, consider this your formal warning for incivil discussion. Please focus on the WP content, not the your opinion of the editors. DMacks (talk) 16:25, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete. This definitely does not pass WP:NOTABILITY, and the only references are attributed to her employer's website. The sources are clearly a violation of WP:SECONDARY. --ZLMedia 17:33, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Which happens to also be the case for others on the list. Apparently the fact that the employer's website (which actually now belongs to IBM and not TWC anymore) is one of the most heavily-trafficked on the Internet amounts to nothing, while a fraudulent, bot-created website like articlebio.com which gathers information from Social Media and re-packages it in a much more untrustworthy and grammatically incorrect format, is acceptable? The contradictions are mind-boggling here. Keybeeny (talk) 18:39, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The only weather-personality article I see that cites articlebio.com is Jen Carfagno. There are other cites as well (that one does not look critical), and that article itself is tagged as possibly not meeting WP:BIO either (that is, it could wind up at Articles for deletion too). An argument of WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is sometimes just as likely to get other-stuff deleted too vs getting what you want kept. DMacks (talk) 18:45, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I requested external opinion on the general usability of that site. Feel free to comment further at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard#articlebio.com on that specific issue. DMacks (talk) 18:56, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Weather.com with few exceptions is the reference source for just about every single footnote of every single TWC on-air personality listed on Wikipedia. It is considered a trustworthy site, even though it actually no longer has any formal relationship with TWC after having been purchased by IBM. It is quite interesting to see the other folks' entries being questioned and calls made for their possible removal now when all that was necessary was to just allow the addition of the name of the fifth AMHQ host to the list of the other four. The staunch opposition being raised here and claims being made about what constitutes a trustworthy reference while being apparently unaware of what is actually already being used here raises questions about everything else found on Wikipedia. Keybeeny (talk) 19:16, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - non notable TV presenter. Just because your face is on the screen doesn't make you notable. Nothing independent and in depth here  Velella  Velella Talk   19:20, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That is an opinion which certainly has a valid basis; merely being on-screen does not necessarily make one notable. Of course, by that logic the others with the exception of Jim Cantore who is pretty well-known and possibly Reynolds Wolf who was on CNN for years before joining TWC would fall into the same category. The network tracks Nielsen ratings and one's reach on Social Media which are both pretty strong for Kelly Cass which is why she has been there for 18 years, but for a site like Wikipedia which insists on articles posted for web browsing on a PC which is a diminishing and declining source of information in the year 2017, apparently those metrics don't mean much. Keybeeny (talk) 19:31, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You pretty clearly identified the kernel of your concern: popularity or personnel issues and value to a business are not the same as notability, by widespread and long-standing consensus for our encyclopedia (WP:BIO has been mentioned before). You're welcome to try to push to change that, but this specific forum isn't the place. DMacks (talk) 19:38, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict)That is not accurate. A reliable source (have you read that page?) is not limited to those online. It can be printed media as well or other media formats, as long as the source is reliable. As told to you already, user-editable sources like social media are not considered reliable sources. If you want to fight the battle to change that policy, you are free to, but that's how things stand now. You are also free to work to change what is considered notable for biographies(have you read that as well?) but, again, that's what we have now. If you find that unsatisfactory, there isn't much else anyone here can do for you.
In addition, as already stated, citing others in a similar position as your wife is only pointing out other things that likely need to be removed. As a volunteer project worked on by hundreds of thousands of people, some poor content gets through. 331dot (talk) 19:45, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you have now placed yourself in the position of saying, "Sure, there are a bunch of people who have appeared for many years on a cable network which reaches millions of viewers and they have shows which are aired every day on that channel, but we are unfamiliar with these people ourselves since we don't watch. So thus we can safely conclude they are not noteworthy." Keybeeny (talk) 19:57, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The WP:RS standard is precisely so that we are not limited to those "in the know" (in the viewing area and care to watch the channel), but rather have a more neutral basis for deciding. We are all editors, there are no ordained specialists here. Instead, it was long decided that we look to others (and have specified the standards for accepting them). That's indepenent, reliable sources vs editors' own opinions, heresay, and non-independent sources. DMacks (talk) 20:11, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I do not see reliable sources independent of the subject, required for the general notability guideline. Sławomir Biały (talk) 19:58, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So then you must also be recommending the deletion of the entry for Paul Goodloe which has three citations, all from weather.com. Keybeeny (talk) 20:14, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's fine with me if you want to nominate that for deletion too. Sławomir Biały (talk) 20:39, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. What would Wikipedia.com do without such vigilant and meticulous editors? When someone goes and completes a longstanding and unquestioned list by adding valid, proven, unrefuted information, the result turns out to be a recommendation for the deletion of the very list. Keybeeny (talk) 20:59, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

However, this [12] might add to notability. I don´t think it´s selfpublished. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:52, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Being referred to as a Notable Former On Air Staff on Wikipedia ( WRNN-TV ) for years could possibly be an indication that someone has met the standard of being notable. To reasonable people, anyway. Keybeeny (talk) 17:52, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, no. On Wikipedia, Wikipedia is not a WP:RELIABLE source. We need better sources than "us", see for example Wikipedia:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 05:59, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

True, Wikipedia is not a reliable source, but the folks who swooped in and deleted the entries at the Weather Channel wiki did not impose their handiwork years ago when the entries were made at RNN-TV since names like Brian Kenny and Kelly Cass and others belong on it. TV personalities reach millions of viewers and have a large body of work retrievable on Internet-hosted video, which makes them well-known and with large numbers of fans without necessarily having a large body of good old-fashioned plain text articles typed about them. Nice job finding that book reference, though. Keybeeny (talk) 15:54, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It is not in doubt that a TV weather forecaster appears on TV. We don't need terabytes of video to prove it. That's not the issue. Amassing lots of video is not listed on the notability criteria. We are all volunteers here and until we all get paid to do this some improper content will get through. 331dot (talk) 17:09, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It is interesting that there is a criterion quite plainly listed on the notability criteria whose wording goes "Has been featured multiple times in notable mainstream media", which would appear to contradict your insistence that there is nothing notable about being featured in a most notable mainstream media outlet, for example the NBC Nightly News. That criterion is Wikipedia's standard for pornographic actors to be notable. Wikipedia has a different standard for journalists, obviously. So it is considered notable to simply appear in the media as long as it is for a lewd or lascivious purpose, but not for one such as forecasting and communicating. Not just appear, but be one of five featured hosts on a network's flagship offering and to have been for 18 years.Keybeeny (talk) 06:37, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Are you saying that the NBC Nightly News piece was about her personally in some way? Be careful in cherry-picking notability criteria, it also states "Primary sources may be used to support content in an article, but they do not contribute toward proving the notability of a subject" TWC is owned by NBCUniversal, meaning her appearances on NBC Nightly News are at the direction of her employer and are a primary source. She is considered notable if "if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." Further, there are also specific criteria for biographies that apply(either biographies in general or specifically for professionals).
I'm sure I would be arguing as hard as you if it was my wife under discussion, and I don't blame you for doing so. However, you are demonstrating the importance of the conflict of interest policy. 331dot (talk) 09:15, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I believe you are demonstrating that violating the policy of full disclosure is better than honoring it since you seem to use it in order to dismiss the discussion from the topic at hand to keep on referring to my personal relationship with it. Keybeeny (talk) 15:04, 9 June 2017 (UTC) Additionally, the characterization you have made is actually not true, since the two networks have always been managed independently of one another and the decision to request someone to report for the NBC Nightly News was not merely at the direction of management, but the producers there would specifically request someone and decline to use another if the original one requested was not available. Keybeeny (talk) 15:09, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Question for those who said delete: Are there specific reasons why we should delete this and not redirect it to The Weather Channel? —Guanaco 09:01, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe not, I´m ok with it. It would make her the only one in that list without an article, but there´s no law against that, and I think AfD:s are needed for more of them, like Reynolds Wolf and Jen Carfagno. Also, the section shouldn´t be named Notable current personalities, Notable is basically WP-jargon in context. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:13, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think we should close this as redirect, then redirect the other similar articles as well, linking this AfD on each of their talk pages. If they're substantially the same and it doesn't require admin functions, why repeat the process ad nauseam? —Guanaco 19:15, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Also we could include a couple sentences for each of the TV personalities in the article, similar to the various "List of characters" pages. —Guanaco 19:18, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If yes, but unless they fall under some sort of speedy deletion criteria, AfD:s might be necessary to give interested people a chance to separate the babies from the bathwater. If this closes as delete/redirect, perhaps the next step would be a discussion (RFC?) at The Weather Channel, something like "I suggest we do the same with Notable current personalities X Y Z etc." Maybe a "group-delete" will be agreed to that way.
The "characters" idea is not a bad one, primary sources like [13] could be used (a little). Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 05:51, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Of course, you can always WP:BOLD whatever you think reasonable, and see what happens. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 10:15, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Actually Bogdan Janković meets the specifics of WP:NHOCKEY, namely, 1. Played one or more games in an existing or defunct top professional league. He played, inter alia, for HK Partizan a professional team in the Serbian Hockey League. The Serbian Hockey League is the top league for ice hockey in Serbia. According to its Wikipedia article (not a reliable source) HK Partizan has won 20 national championships and three cups, and is the most successful ice hockey team in Serbia. In 2010 he played for HK Spartak Subotica a professional team in the Serbian Hockey League. Since 2011 he has played, and coached, for HK Vitez of the Serbian Hockey League. If I have misread the guideline, my apologies; I don't usually work on ice hockey articles, but came across this one while looking for Bogdan Janković (1868-1918) educator and Serbian nationalist. --Bejnar (talk) 02:19, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Bejnar: He does not actually meet WP:NHOCKEY; there is a linked list of what is considered a "top professional league" and no serbian league is included.18abruce (talk) 22:51, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I note that the "linked list" is an essay, not a guideline. The "linked list" seems to suffer from systemic bias toward English speaking leagues. Since 2009 Serbia has played in the "big leagues". In fact Bogdan Janković played on the team that moved them from Division II to Division I. I agree that he did not play in the Olympics, nor did he play on the national team after it entered Division I. As best I can determine he has played about 180 professional games in the Serbian League, but I have been unable so far to find recent data. He seems to meet the spirit of WP:NHOCKEY, if not the exact parameters. As to WP:GNG, coverage seems to be about par (or a tad more) for notable, albeit non-superstar, ice hockey players. --Bejnar (talk) 18:03, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Does not meet NHOCKEY, I tried to find evidence of GNG and was unable.18abruce (talk) 22:51, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@18abruce: Most of the references are in Serbian, hence "Богдан Јанковић" is one appropriate search term. To avoid false drops it can be combined with forms of the word hockey, "Хокеј", "хокејашки", "xокејашка", or the name of one of his teams such as: "Витез", "Спартак" or "Партизан". Once a useful website is found, results can be expanded with Google's site: function. See, for example, this report of a match where he scored three of the seven winning goals (other players scored one each). The two other arguably notable people with the name "Bogdan Janković" are the current playwright/director and the late 19th, early 20th century educator. --Bejnar (talk) 18:03, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I did do serbian searches, as I do to find correct spellings of names for when I detail their national team games. Non of the found sources were above routine coverage. Whether or not NHOCKEY is an essay or not, Serbian hockey is nowhere near the "big leagues" in any kind of coverage. His national team coverage is way below consensus to meet NHOCKEY as well. You said, "if I have misread the guideline, my apologies", well I tried to point out that yes, you did misread it---playing in the top league in your own country is irrelevent in NHOCKEY, not mentioned there. The linked list provided is there to help the reader understand what is meant by the different criteria, and changes through consensus.18abruce (talk) 18:17, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Seems notable. While I haven't really heard of this before, a cursory look at Scholar suggests this character was subject to some literary analysis: " Bob Acres is not the reputed author's original creation, but a compound of Jonson's Stephen, Bobadil, Cob, Matthew and Brainworm" [15]. He has a (short, but still) entry in this dictionary/encyclopedia-like work: Jonathan Law (16 December 2013). The Methuen Drama Dictionary of the Theatre. A&C Black. pp. 4–. ISBN 978-1-4081-3148-0., and he is important enough to be a central subject of what seems to be a teaching exercise at James Stobaugh (1 November 2012). British Literature: Cultural Influences of Early to Contemporary Voices. New Leaf Publishing Group. pp. 238–. ISBN 978-0-89051-673-7.; to find just three sources.

  • Keep. I agree with Piotrus in that a cursory look through Google News, Books, and Scholar suggest that this character has enough coverage for an article. The article may be in an extremely poor shape as it currently stands, but the subject matter appears to have the coverage necessary to meet notability standards.

  • Redirect to The Rivals and merge the minor detail this article provides. Perhaps there enough reliable sources to establish notability. Having this bit existing separate from The Rivals suffers from lack of context that merging it does not. WP:NCHAR isn't a notability guideline although I like it's 'other options' advice for this subject.

An unnecessary cross-categorisation created when the awarding of the Knight's Cross was accepted on Wiki as a presumption of notability.

@Colapeninsula: I nominated the lists because I consider them to be an unneeded cross categorisation; compare with Category:Lists of Medal of Honor recipients -- it include lists by conflict & by ethnicity, for example, but there are no List of Medal of Honor Recipients of X Division during World War II & similar list articles. Breaking down the recipients by such minute categories seems excessive. In addition, the Knight's Cross no longer serves to establish presumed notability under WP:SOLDIER by the Wiki community (unlike in 2008), so these lists are on non-notable subjects themselves.

  • Opposed delete of foreign unit awards lists, such award alone has been cited in deportation proceedings as evidence of war crimes, for example, by members of the 15th and 19th Waffen-SS, Latvian 1st and 2nd. I would support consolidation of the two lists I just cited into one indicating division. The single master list is impossible to muddle through.

Likewise, [Latvian recipients of Nazi awards] brings up sources that mention the detail in passing, such as MI6: Inside the Covert World of Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service.

It is true I coined the name. However, there will be Washington State Senate committee hearings about the matter. As such there has been and will be, "further reporting" and "repercussions". There has been no attempt to correct the article's ALLEGED "NPOV issues".

Most of these are Washington State, but not all. Clearly extensive regional coverage and I think there is enough sustained coverage here to establish notability. Article needs a different name because "ORCAleak" is not used in the coverage. MB 04:19, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Per WP:LASTING, the lack of recent sources indicates that the "scandal" had few, if any, lasting effects. The sources listed come from the initial findings (August 2016) and the report from the State Public Disclosure Commission (September 2016). No reporting in the lead-up to the election (November) or afterwards, amid other controversies related to the ballot measure over the last few months.
    • Also, several of the links are heavily biased against Sound Transit and transit agencies in general (ShiftWA and Washington Policy are conservative think tanks, Washington Times is a conservative-run newspaper), or are simply repeating reporting from The Seattle Times. SounderBruce 04:26, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I searched for coverage and found 16 more. You discount a few because they are "conservative". Well, since most main-stream media has a liberal bias, showing there is coverage across a range of sources is a good thing. Whether this was an attempt to influence an election, or an "innocent" mistake may not yet be proven. But there are some clear facts - the email addresses were improperly released. Your disparaging comments about "conservative" sources suggests you may not be maintaining a NPOV. MB 15:35, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with MB. This doesn't need to be swept under the rug, it is an improper release of personal data about to go before public Washington State Senate hearings. Either I stand for civil liberties and right of privacy when my favourite people violate it (e.g. Sound Transit) or not at all. Sorry.

Yes, main-stream media would be nice to have in this case. But a conservative think tank is hardly an acceptable, NPOV source for something political like mass transit. Yes, the e-mail addresses were improperly released, but the lack of ongoing coverage shows how minute this is. Hardly worth a mention on the Sound Transit 3 page (where I added it months ago), and not worth a standalone article. SounderBruce 01:01, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

To MB and SounderBruce, I would be open to "2016 ORCA E-mail Addresses Leak". Seems to be in with the nomenclature used on the Wikileaks page. The leak was repeatedly brought up in the many Sound Transit 3 debates until November. My goal is "just the facts" and not to spin the verifiable facts. Especially as there will be State Senatorial hearings into the matter - [33]. JosefAbraham JosefAbraham 04:34, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK, new comment. I disagree and agree with SounderBruce. First, I respectfully disagree "how minute this is" when there has initiated a State Senate investigation into ORCAleak or the inappropriate sharing of personal data from a database tracking personal movement, a clear violation of the right of privacy. Second, I vote to keep this article so the facts are tracked as the State Senate Investigation comes into play - an investigation that at the appropriate time when the hearings are scheduled I will make a WikiPedia page about so we can track the facts and stop the spin.
Which brings me to where I agree with SounderBruce - namely think tanks of any time should be a secondary source at best on WikiPedia. I know Mrs. Mariya Frost of Washington Policy Center personally, she is at the least very anti-light rail and most of her pieces are to push a very sharp POV. I cannot in good conscience cite Op-eds on a political scandal. JosefAbraham JosefAbraham 03:24, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Professional ice hockey player for the Bulgarian national team, and article is relevant to women's sports and ice hockey. Article definitely needs some serious clean-up and additional references, but there are sources showing her involvement in the Bulgarian team (eg. IIHF) and other sources may need to be translated from English. While I understand you may be referring to WP:NHOCKEY/LA, the guideline does not include women's ice hockey leagues (eg. the NWHL and CWHL are not mentioned). Article does fit WP:ATHLETE in general.Boopitydoopityboop (talk) 13:10, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete. If not for the fact that she plays / played on the national team, she would be failing NSPORT. But she still fails GNG. Maybe some Bulgarian readers could find some in-depth coverage on her - interviews, articles about, etc.? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:32, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete National team players are only notable if they played in a top-level competition, such as the Olympics themselves (not qualification) or the top level at the World Championships (not a lower division). She did neither, so she fails WP:NHOCKEY. That leaves WP:GNG, which she also fails as far as I can tell. I'd be willing to reconsider if someone can provide sources. Smartyllama (talk) 15:12, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fails GNG, as a frequent editor of international tournaments I wish I could agree with the comments of Boopitydoopityboop, however they are inaccurate. She is not professional, only the NWHL is fully professional and she is no where near that caliber. Even if WP:NHOCKEY does not apply, GNG or WP:WOMEN would. WP:ATHLETE says "The article must provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline or the sport specific criteria set forth below". For an amateur athlete who has neither competed in anything remotely close to a high level, or achieved any kind of distinction, I am at a loss as to how she could fit it "in general". In men's play, an amateur athlete who has played at the highest level is presumed to be notable, I don't understand how a women who plays at the lowest level would have the same standing.18abruce (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect. This is cool, but... where are the references? Like EMG above, I cannot find any. As such, this fails WP:GNG and sadly, does not deserve an independent early. Strange, though, that a geeky topic like this didn't generate any coverage, you'd think Kotaku etc. would be all over it. I found some coverage of an audiotrack with a similar name ([36]), but I think that's what we are discussing here. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:49, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The article is about a fan film, not the phrase "hero of time", which is used in other capacities in the series. The question is whether this phrase is worth redirecting (and covering) in the main article, and based on the above sourcing (+ this source), no, it is not worth mentioning or redirecting. (Further, a redirect would be inappropriate if the fan film was not mentioned in the article, which it is not and should not.) Choosing whether to redirect Hero of time there is a different, but more apt consideration based on the other sources found above. czar 05:09, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As the title suggests, this is a collection of quotes about the city of Berlin. However, WP:NOTQUOTE says, "Wikipedia articles are not ... Lists or repositories of loosely associated topics such as (but not limited to) quotations, aphorisms, or persons (real or fictional). If you want to enter lists of quotations, put them into our sister project Wikiquote." In fact, Wikiquote already has a page of quotes about Berlin.

Yes, there is WP:NOTQUOTE, but I feel that is more intended towards collections of witty aphorisms on diverse topics. Here, we do not have a "repository of loosely associated topics." This article is limited to quotations about Berlin. Berlin is an important world city, but its history means that some of the quotes bear meaning beyond that of the city itself; I mean "Ich bin ein Berliner" and "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!". All that said, Wikiquote may be a more desirable place for the quotations, though I still do not object to its presence in mainspace.Roches (talk) 18:21, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a person whose only substantive notability claim to date is being a candidate in the primary for a future election. As always, this is not a claim that passes WP:NPOL in and of itself -- if you cannot demonstrate and properly source that he was already notable enough for an article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he has to win the election, not just run in it, to get an article out of the election itself. The media coverage shown here is not strongly demonstrating that his candidacy is more notable than the norm, either -- it's virtually all local to either the district where he's a candidate, or the city where his dad was prominent enough that it's newsworthy because dad rather than because Tanner. (And because notability is not inherited, the fact that he's the son of someone notable does not make him notable in and of itself either.) And even on volume of sourcing this isn't showing anything more than every candidate in any election could always show. In fact, I would have speedied this, except that this is the third time it's been recreated after having already been speedied twice. No prejudice against recreation on or after November 7 if he wins the special election, but nothing stated or sourced here earns him an article today. Restoring the redirect, per Muboshgu, would also be acceptable — but whether deleted or redirected, the title should probably be salted given the repeated recreations.

  • Weak keep per GNG. Google News immediately throws up multiple (though admittedly fewer than I'd like) independent RS focusing on him (there's even an RS documenting that the 'national media' are focusing on him), incl. one as geographically farflung as the New Zealand Herald. Given relatively small number of sources and their focus on his candidacy and paternity, redirecting to his father's article might be acceptable, with the info there, but that he's received significant coverage for the "wrong" reasons (and offshoots of that argument) does not a compelling case make. Advocata (talk) 17:57, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above. Independent news coverage in the special election. KingAntenor (talk) 21:56, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Every candidate in every special election always generates news coverage, because covering local politics is local media's job. So such coverage falls under WP:ROUTINE, and cannot be used to mount a WP:GNG claim, in and of itself, unless it (a) explodes to a volume wildly out of proportion to what's simply expected to exist (i.e. the media firestorm that swallowed Christine O'Donnell), or (b) it demonstrates, by virtue of the fact that he was already getting coverage in other contexts besides the election, that he already passed GNG for some other reason before being a candidate. Wikipedia's notability standards for politicians, however, are expressly designed to prevent Wikipedia from turning into a repository of unelected political candidates' campaign brochures, so the mere fact that coverage exists in the context of the election itself does not automatically make someone notable for our purposes — because coverage in that context never, ever, ever fails to exist for anyone.

  • Redirect to Utah's 3rd congressional district special election, 2017. His only "claim to fame" is being a candidate in an election (which is not inherently notable) and being the offspring of a notable person (which is not inherently notable).

Sethgordonw (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
Being a candidate, "legitimate" or otherwise, in a primary is not a notability claim that gets a person into Wikipedia in and of itself. The only two ways a candidate can get a Wikipedia article just for being a candidate, without having to win the election first, are (a) they can be shown and properly sourced as having already cleared some other notability criterion for some other reason completely independent of the campaign coverage, or (b) the campaign coverage explodes far out of proportion to what could be routinely expected to always exist for every candidate in any election, such as what happened to Christine O'Donnell in 2010 (i.e. her article cites over 160 sources, because the coverage globalized into a firestorm.) Neither of those conditions is being shown here at all. (And just for clarity, note that I placed "legitimate" in quotation marks not because I'm calling Ainge's legitimacy as a candidate into question, but because per WP:NPOV it's not Wikipedia's role to decide whether any candidate in any election is a "legitimate" one or not — either they are a candidate or they're not, the end, and no candidate gets treated differently than any other candidate on the basis of subjective interpretations of their legitimacy.)

If an encyclopedic tone can be maintained and the timeline's length remains significant, it seems like a valid fork of the OROP article.

There are multiple reasons I am putting this up for AfD. First, this biography is largely unreferenced, with only one or two sentences being supported by each reference. Second, the first sentence is kind of promotional, especially the "as a means of improving people's lives". Third, this article is not properly structured, although I think that this should have little impact on the decision to delete or not. Overall, this culminates in the fact that I do not regard this as an article that should appear in Wikipedia in its current state. RileyBugz会話投稿記録 23:20, 21 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A couple of papers are not enough to pass WP:ACADEMIC, and the notablility of academics in general has been put into question recently on Wikipedia.

This page lists the top 100 movie quotations in American cinema.

Also this - List of quotes featuring Berlin -

Therefore, there is no violation. Wikipedia does list quotations.

Also, this page lists a significant number of quotes that are exceedingly useful and beneficial in regard to the knowledge of the readers, as such it is a highly productive page.

  • Delete. WP:NOTQUOTE says, "Wikipedia articles are not ... Lists or repositories of loosely associated topics such as (but not limited to) quotations .... If you want to enter lists of quotations, put them into our sister project Wikiquote." This collection of quotes already has a thematic counterpart at Wikiquote:Islam (and see also Wikiquote:Category:Islam for related topics). The situation with AFI's 100 Years...100 Movie Quotes is different, as that is a notable list (voted and ranked by a group of 1,500 voters selected by a major organization, and then announced on a three-hour nationally broadcast television special); that is, the list itself is notable. I have nominated List of quotes featuring Berlin for deletion because it doesn't belong in Wikipedia either. (I would also note that this list of quotations about Islam is poorly organized, being listed alphabetically by the speaker's first name, but that's not worth being concerned about given that the entire article ought to be deleted.) --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:34, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

2] In addition, it states - Wikipedia functions as an index or directory of its own content. So the content being Islam, the article can serve as the function of its directory on quotations.

3] I do not think it is fair that such is the desperation to remove this article, that you remove another article as well. One can see your love and admiration for Islam. But we don't need to sacrifice another article to remove this one. Simply add positive quotes and defend Islam if that is what you want. Of course, goes without saying, if that article is not removed, then it makes no sense that this one is removed. And you are welcome to sort the list in whatever order you wish.

Probity22 There are so many things to address with your statements but I'm going to start with how patently ridiculous number 3 is. One can see your love and admiration for Islam. But we don't need to sacrifice another article to remove this one. This is not what AfD is about and certainly not what Wikipedia is about. My personal feelings on a subject are completely irrelevant and do not come into play when I nominate something for deletion and my bias is that I dislike non-encyclopedic content and garbage. This is not encyclopedic and is an indiscriminate list of quotes with little or no encyclopedic value and this just simply is not the appropriate place for it, per the several guidelines and policies you've been linked to. And adding quotes that would balance it out won't make it any better, just a larger mess of non-encyclopedic content.
With regard to number 2: please re-read the links you've been given.
Number one: you fail to acknowledge that in that same sentence you've quoted it is followed by If you want to enter lists of quotations, put them into our sister project Wikiquote.CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 12:40, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - WP:NOTQUOTE tells us exactly why this does not belong in Wikipedia. And even if the severe current bias were rectified, it would still be a case of original research. --bonadea contributions talk 13:21, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete As mentioned, it does not meet WP:NOTQUOTE, which specifically says Wikipedia is not for lists of quotes. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, that is, a collection of articles providing facts on different topics; it is not a collection of primary sources or other people's quotations. An encyclopedia is not a dictionary of quotations. Arguing over the closeness of the association is irrelevant, but it could be pointed out that the quotations are from a wide range of people, countries, historical periods, and attitudes, and while an individual person or closely-connected group's religious beliefs may be notable, the topic of what everybody ever says about Islam is far more loosely connected than that. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:23, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

By depriving the viewers of such extensive knowledge, we are doing a disservice to the viewers. I would accept any decision of course, but we all know that this statement is true -

This page only adds to the knowledge base of wikipedia, and hence is highly productive and beneficial. It does not take away anything from wikipedia. It is merely a comprehensive addition, which would greatly help all those who come across it.

I stand by my position. The rest is up to the community. Probity22 (talk) 15:34, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Probity22 Please see WP:POINT. Also with regard to the Berlin page - there are literally millions of articles on Wikipedia. Millions. No human being could reasonably look at every single one. You should really reconsidering amending your last edit as you're making some pretty incredible accusations and using Wikipedia as a soapbox. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 15:15, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) Probity22 has been warned re not assuming good faith. Based on their latest post above, it looks like the article was created as a soapbox, which is yet another reason to delete it (speedily, for preference). --bonadea contributions talk 15:18, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete or transwiki the choice of quotes here looks to be original research, and there will be no end to the list. A place for this content would be on Wikiquote, so transwiki is possible.. I was hoping there would be on a book called this, but not so. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:32, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. This appears to be a list of quotes attacking Islam, and not an attempt at developing a genuine encyclopedia article. Given the fundamental problems with how it was assembled (lack of attempts to provide a neutral position on selection of quotes, etc), I disagree strongly about transwiking it: that would just export the problem elsewhere.

Golden Key International Honour Society[edit]

Golden Key International Honour Society (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Appears to be a promotional page for a non-notable organization.

I heard about this society because, as a college graduate, they keep sending me spam. The talk page history indicates that the Wikipedia article has repeatedly been subject to rounds of self-interested and paid editing from Golden Key employees, and in its current state, it is almost entirely sourced by the organization's own website (and reads like it was written by them). That doesn't in and of itself mean they are non-notable, but most of the hits I found elsewhere were resume entries, rather than substantial pieces about the society itself. The major exception I found is this piece, which takes a critical look at the organization (including this very Wikipedia page). I'm not seeing indications that they have received enough independent notice to merit inclusion. Chubbles (talk) 18:37, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Whether it is a scam or not is completely irrelevant to whether there is an article about it. (see International Star Registry for example). And there are actually so many google hits for "Golden Key" in the edu domain that it took me a while to get through the pages that are simply Golden Key exists at the school (and here is a description) to get to new stories but they are there. (examples include http://www.utdallas.edu/news/2007/07/12-002.html and https://www.smu.edu/News/2015/gerard-atkinson-13april2015) Naraht (talk) 11:03, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Both those sources are more or less press releases issued by the school; does this organization get substantial coverage from third-party newspapers or magazines (and not merely "local boy makes good" pieces)? Outside of one or two articles from student newspapers which basically amount to amateur investigative journalism about the institution's merits, I'm not seeing them. (If we found a couple of investigative pieces from major press outlets, I'd withdraw my nomination, even if it is a sham outfit.) Chubbles (talk) 17:30, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
How about the following investigative article from the Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/2002/04/21/golden-key-shows-tarnish-critics-say/fd80a6d4-7027-4ca6-b7d3-2e1bb32509a2/?utm_term=.6400b5cebfd5) another article at about the same time at (http://www.studlife.com/archives/News/2002/04/18/GoldenKeyHonorSocietycomesunderfireforloweringstandards/) and (I think) part of the article that sparked this from the Chronicle of Higher Education at https://business.highbeam.com/434953/article-1G1-146965007/dishonor-society (Chronicle of Higher Education has the entire article behind a paywall at http://www.chronicle.com/article/Dishonor-Society/18357 . Does that work?Naraht (talk) 17:47, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes! Nomination withdrawn. I will set about revamping the article to better reflect this sourcing, though I imagine it will be subject to furious edit-warring from the institution itself for the rest of my life, so please, anyone viewing this discussion, please add to your watchlists.
