  • Keep the article - We are talking about a player who has already a professional contract with FC Barcelona, and he is also the first player born in the 20th century to play for FC Barcelona's professional teams. In this regard, it has to be noticed that FC Barcelona B is a fully professional league team, even though they are at the moment part of a mid-professional league as Segunda Division B. Considering the international scope, it is obvious this player has reached such a relevance as being the second best scorer in history in the UEFA European Under-17 Championship, ahead of other professional players as Paco Alcacer, or the one that has been capped most times in history, ahead of players as Toni Kroos. — Preceding unsigned comment added by U2U3 (talkcontribs) 12:44, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
While I don't disagree with you, User:U2U3, the reality is there's two ways to win an argument to keep an article on a football player, and I'm afraid you've not hit either. One is to meet WP:NFOOTBALL with an appearance on a fully-professional team (or a senior international cap), or demonstrate that there is significant media coverage of him (well, and a third - a believable quote from his manager saying he's starting next week - but that's pretty rare). Given he doesn't meet the first, your only hope is the second. What he achieved is nothing - however it could have garnered enough media coverage. What you must do is simply present that coverage. In whatever language it is in. But not just a paragraph about a signing, or a great goal. But in-depth feature articles about the player. And not on the club's website - but from real media outlets.

  • Note gNews hits [1] and at least 3 books discuss the case, also some scholarly articles, there may be an article here, the is raised in academic journals and books in terms of news coverage disparity when a small, photogenic girl disappears in America depending on whether she is black or white.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:37, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • What we have about the person is that she disappeared and that her disappearance is observed years later. The coverage of the event is local. The book hits are passing mentions among other examples of the lack of media interest in cases like this. It may not be fair, but RS support for a biography or a criminal event article appears to be insufficient. • Gene93k (talk) 21:26, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Chinese literature. Opinions are divided between merge and delete. This redirect is a compromise in that it allows editors to figure out in the course of individual edits and discussions which, if any, content is worth merging.  Sandstein  11:47, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is poorly written and a hodgepodge of extant information from other articles. It reads more like a middle school report than an encyclopedia article. A "B" one at that. It's not even internally-consistent as it refers to Classic period as well as the 14th century, neither of which are at all "ancient" - a phrase which probably is cribbed from the derogatory Orientalist phrase "Ancient Chinese Secret/Proverb".

  • Redirect into Chinese literature. Based on the current content it makes more sense as a section of a more general article. Power~enwiki (talk) 00:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC) (vote updated to Redirect; I see no content worth saving Power~enwiki (talk) 19:21, 14 May 2017 (UTC))[reply]
  • Merge into Chinese literature. The article scope is ill-defined and questionable. Most academic sources consider "ancient China" to be pre-Qin dynasty or at latest the Han dynasty; the Four Great Classical Novels, which take up half of the article as currently written, are usually considered late imperial, not ancient. -Zanhe (talk) 08:12, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge as per Power~enwiki and Zanhe. Obviously notable aspect of a greater field. Hyperbolick (talk) 13:46, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge There's nothing here that isn't covered better and more sensibly at Chinese literature and articles that branch off from there. This is especially true given the meaninglessness of this article's use of the word "ancient". Tigercompanion25 (talk) 15:38, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I see nothing worth saving here. This reads like a student essay from a stealth WEF class. I question why KGirlTrucker81 thought it appropriate to accept this draft. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:39, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete 甲骨文 (earlier than 11th century BCE) and 紅樓夢 (late 1700s CE) have no business being periodised together. While the Chinese word we translate as ancient (古) has considerably broader scope than the English word ancient, this article reads like an incorrect, poorly-paraphrased summary of Chinese literature. None of the references are the caliber of source I'd expect for a treatment of this topic (Shen Yun performing arts?), categorising genres of writing into "prose" and "poetry" is oversimplification to the point of being wrong, and each one of the descriptions of the five main types of Classical Chinese poetry contains at least one factual error. I'm sorry but nothing in this article is worth merging. Agree it should not have been accepted at AfC. Snuge purveyor (talk) 19:47, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - As the nominator, it's an embarrassment for Wikipedia that this article is still up. For those advocating merge please suggest an article that this content would go on where this information isn't already, albeit only written much more cogently and well-sourced. It's entirely superfluous and to be frank, quite a stain given its seeming prominence and grandiose scope. Just delete the whole thing and leave a redirect as suggested above. JesseRafe (talk) 02:40, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Yoga. Almost nobody wants to keep this, but some want to merge a mention of this practice to Yoga or to yet-to-be-created articles. I don't think we have consensus for this, though, given that there seem to be no clear ideas about where in the expansive Yoga article his topic could be mentioned. A redirect is a compromise that allows editors to figure this out later, and to merge this material if we ever do get an article about odd Yoga variants.  Sandstein  12:13, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Much as it pains me I've declined a WP:G11 request on this as the page isn't unsalvageably and exclusively spam. However, I can see no way that this dubiously-sourced article written by an obvious paid editor on a hyper-fringe (and hyper-WP:FRINGE) topic could ever be expanded into a viable Wikipedia article beyond the three sentences currently in the lead.  ‑ Iridescent 18:47, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as per nom Power~enwiki (talk) 19:39, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:N, WP:NOTADVERT and WP:NOTNEWS. The subject does not pass WP:N - the only sources are "infomercials" in a few online magazines, hardly any of which complies with WP:RS, all published around the same time. "Goat Yoga" is in fact a limited-availability commercial product - an exercise programme offered by two local establishments, each individually failing WP:N - and as such falls outside the scope of an encyclopaedia. — kashmiri TALK 19:47, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, or at most, merge into Yoga anything that might be salvageable. The media coverage in the references might just scrape through GNG, but our notability guidelines tell us even then that "This is not a guarantee that a topic will necessarily be handled as a separate, stand-alone page. Editors may use their discretion to merge or group two or more related topics into a single article." There really isn't anything to Goat Yoga than yoga in the presence of goats, and there would be plenty of room in the Yoga article to make use of those three brief sentences in the lead of this article. --RexxS (talk) 20:26, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Selective merge to yoga. "Yoga with animals" is a real topic - there are loads of "lifestyle news" type sources on yoga classes held in animal shelters. (I have been to a yoga class in a cat cafe and it is just as twee as you think.) While we're at it, merge Doga (Dog Yoga) too. Opabinia regalis (talk) 23:29, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Something of a tangent here, but (assuming I'm reading Doga (Dog Yoga) correctly) it's the dog that does the actual yoga poses, so it isn't directly comparable to this which is just "standard yoga in the presence of a goat". ‑ Iridescent 20:42, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Not notable. Or merge a sentence or two. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 04:33, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the above. Simply not notable. If anything is salvageable, merge into Yoga. --TheSandDoctor (talk) 05:28, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete a textbook social media fad, perhaps could be mentioned at Yoga but even that is iffy w/o any enduring RS note of the practice. Bri (talk) 14:57, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect A trip to news.google.com for "goat yoga" (in quotation marks) gives me 30,500 ghits, which is Kind Of A Lot to say it's just not notable. It appears that classes have begun in Virginia, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, Idaho, Washington state, Florida, South Carolina – and that's just from the first page of stories – which debunks our earlier belief that it was just two small businesses. Every news article I've linked here is regular, general news media, including statewide daily newspapers, without a single "infomercial" or "online magazine" in the lot. there is even coverage in national news, such as USA Today, Wall Street Journal, The Times (i.e., of London), The New York Times, The Times of India, and BBC News.
    And yet, while we could bang on the table and say that this kind of "attention from the world at large" (I've just given you links to news articles from six of the largest English-language news sources in the world) is exactly what our notability guidelines accept as the definition of "notable", I'd like to suggest that we take Opabinia regalis's excellent advice, and merge it into a larger article that includes yoga with goats, yoga with dogs, and/or yoga with any other kind of animal. This article in the Washington Post (another national daily newspaper that's covered this subject) on goat yoga links to stories on dog yoga, cat yoga, and bunny yoga, so it might make a great starting point for the new article. Or we could go another direction, and have an article on Marketing gimmicks for yoga classes, which could include Beer yoga. But I think that the "delete" voters need to spend a few minutes looking at the sources and contemplating WP:ARTN (the rule that says that an article's current contents are not the be-all and end-all of notability for the subject). But either way, I'd like to exercise the WP:N escape clause that says, "Editors may use their discretion to merge or group two or more related topics into a single article" and say that even though there are thousands of reliable sources, and even though there are apparently hundreds of businesses or events doing this, let's merge it with related topics into a larger article. WhatamIdoing (talk) 19:58, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments. (1) Re. Google hits count, I never quote the number at the top as it is calculated using OR and not AND. On "goat yoga", Google News (US edition) returns precisely 675 hits (68 pages of 10 results per page), out of which only the first ~190 relate to goat yoga. (2) All or almost all of them are from September 2016 until now, i.e. from the last 8 months. I submit that, be it for a new spiritual direction or for a new practice of physical exercise, it take more than 8 months from the moment they are invented to the time they are eligible for inclusion in an encyclopaedia. (3) I can't see how "yoga with a dog", "yoga with a cat" should be incorporated into yoga any more than "yoga at home", "yoga in a park", "yoga in a pub", "yoga on a plane", etc. — kashmiri TALK 20:37, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • It seems one company was doing "yoga with tigers", but wasn't getting much return business. --RexxS (talk) 21:48, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • We already have a separate article on dog yoga. That's why one of the attractive possibilities is to merge all of the Yoga with animals subjects together. WhatamIdoing (talk) 20:22, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The topic is obviously notable, being covered by the BBC; CNN; USA Today; Modern Farmer; The Independent; Metro; CBC; NY Post; The Times and many more. It's obviously a fad but that's what makes it notable; just like fidget spinners, water bottle flipping and many more. See also moral panic. Andrew D. (talk) 22:47, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge as WP:NOTNEWS obvious marketing gimmick which can be covered in Yoga (products like fidget spinner are at least more tangible and lasting than services which may be ephemeral, so no need to rush the 10 year test), unless we want all variants tiger yoga (per RexxS), dog yoga, badger yoga ? Also, WP:NOTPROMO with about 5 WP:SPA accounts and IP crawling over. Widefox; talk 18:28, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect. Someone makes up a bit of nonsense of this kind every few minutes. Beer yoga is a much better idea, and much more notable too. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:33, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. While it's not entirely true that she's never held elected office at all (she has apparently been a school board trustee), it is true that she hasn't held any office that would get her an WP:NPOL pass — school board trustees do not get Wikipedia articles just for serving on school boards, candidates for political office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates, and Colorado Springs isn't a large enough city that she would have been guaranteed an article even if she had won the city council election. Nothing here constitutes a credible claim of notability, and the referencing isn't even close to the volume it would take to deem her notable anyway because GNG — it's highly dependent on primary sources and blogs, and the few reliable sources are just WP:ROUTINE coverage no different in volume or scope from what any city councillor or school board trustee or non-winning election candidate in any city could always expect to receive.

List of Blue's Clues home video releases[edit]

List of Blue's Clues home video releases (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)

This article is a vandal magnet. It is an implausibly large and unverified list of alleged home video releases for the TV show Blues Clues which seems to exist solely so that hoaxers can fiddle the dates and add, remove or change items without references to provide any external corroboration. Now, obviously I accept that there have been home video releases for this TV show and I have no objection to any of the items here that can be proven real being listed somewhere (with references). Even so, I don't think that this deserves its own article. Even if the list of genuine video releases is as long as claimed here (which I doubt) it can be accommodated in the main article. It is not like any of these video releases is notable in its own right. To this end, I tried redirecting this title back to the main article but it has not stuck. I have tried to start a discussion on the article's talk page but it seems that there is nothing doing.

I think it is time to admit that there is no hope for this ever to be anything other than a vandals' playground and give up on it. As I see it, the alternative is copying everything on this subject out of IMDB, painstakingly checking that it is all genuine there and then spending the rest ofour short lives defending it from those who (for reasons that make no sense to me) want to mess it up. That seems like a lot of unnecessary work when we could just link to IMDB's own lists (or another good source) and have done with it. DanielRigal (talk) 18:09, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: It's suitable for a stand alone list or within the main article. If vandalism is really that much of an issue, you should request page protection. SL93 (talk) 02:51, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
What would we be protecting? Why fossilise an article that could be anywhere between 10% and 90% fake in its protected state? If there was ever a good, verifiable version of this article worthy of protection which we could revert to then I would agree with you 100% but there isn't. That is why I suggest we just give up on this. Articles like this are a discredit to Wikipedia. We know that they are bad but clearly we don't have the time or the will to research such minor subjects in the detail required to make them good so they stay, forever unverified, as the sole preserve of the hoaxers and vandals. This reinforces the impression that we are soft on hoaxes, inaccuracies and low level disruption and so the hoaxers will be encouraged and will persist. It is not like I have not tried to encourage good editors to work on this. I have added it to projects and put suggestions on the talk page. It hasn't done any good. It is nothing but a rod for our own backs. Its existence has a small knock on effect on the whole project. Small, but detrimental. --DanielRigal (talk) 19:37, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • The lack of interest in !voting here is understandable. I think this illustrates why articles such as this are problematic. It is a sub-article of a subject that is itself pretty obscure. It will attract fan writing, and also vandalism by those who think it is funny to get one over on the fans and on Wikipedia, but very little attention from experienced editors who can ensure that the content is correct and validly referenced. --DanielRigal (talk) 12:21, 30 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It certainly isn't great but at least it has better referencing that this does. I'm going to tag the equivalent Dora article as needing improvement but it doesn't seem like it needs deleting like this does. Besides, we have a policy WP:OTHERCRAP which means that even if that was literally the worst thing on Wikipedia (which it isn't) it still wouldn't help to justify this article, which is what we are talking about here. --DanielRigal (talk) 18:00, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia does not care about what is "useful". What it wants is "verifiable" info. And in any case, there is nothing useful about an article whose only purpose is to list videos.

Article about a band, which asserts a notability claim but fails to reliably source it. NMUSIC criteria are not passed just because they're claimed to have been passed; they're passed only when the claim to passage is reliably sourced to media coverage about them. But I've just done a Google search, and came up completely dry for any evidence of media coverage whatsoever -- and even if the chart position can be nominally verified in some source I'm missing, the band still can't have an article if they're so unsourceable otherwise that, for example, we can't even provide the names of the band members. No prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write and source something more substantial than a single sentence stating that they existed, but what's here simply isn't enough.

  • Merge/Keep Clearly meets "Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart." on WP:NMUSIC. Sourcing is sufficient to verify that fact. However, as Michig shows, this was a one-off brand used by Aston Harvey; as he does not have a page of his own this should redirect/merge to Freestylers.

Completing nomination for an IP editor, whose rationale (from the article's talk page) is copied verbatim below. On the merits, I make no recommendation.

This article is only a list of statistics. There is nothing that indicates that this cyclist is special or important in any shape or form.

  • Weak delete. Fails WP:GNG. Coverage is limited to the usual stat agregators, and WP:NCYC for women is broken and super-inclusive, so from the sport perspective she fails. There seem to be some coverage of her as a model both those sites don't look very reliable; I'd like to hear from an Italian speaker on their reliability. The problem with this low-level celebrity coverage is that sometimes such sites are gossip-tabloid-blog level of sources, and our standards are a bit higher. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:59, 6 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. There's no reliable source coverage being shown about the building to get it over WP:GNG for anything; all of the sources are either primary sources or indiscriminate "all buildings in" directories. And this isn't a personal lack of familiarity with the topic either, for the record — not only do I live in Toronto, I've been physically in this building before because I have a friend who used to live in it. Bearcat (talk) 22:14, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Simply does not have the reliable coverage needed to pass WP:GNG. --TheSandDoctor (talk) 05:49, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. There are quite a few articles about tall buildings in Toronto, some articles are about buildings smaller than this one. Why delete this article specifically? Jack N. Stock (talk) 06:50, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Please read WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. The inclusion standard for buildings on Wikipedia is not "any building over a certain height", but hinges on whether the building is the subject of reliable source coverage in media or not. Any other building which doesn't have reliable source coverage in media should also be deleted, while any other building which does have reliable source coverage in media is not directly equivalent to this one just because of a height comparison alone — it is entirely possible for a shorter building to be more notable than a taller one, if the shorter building has the depth of reliable source coverage required and the taller one doesn't, because our inclusion criteria for buildings are based on the sourceability and not the height per se. Bearcat (talk) 13:08, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm aware of WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, and WP:GEOFEAT. As David mentions, some of the other buildings don't seem likely to be notable, either, although I'm not likely to research notability of Toronto condos! I was interested in the process that brought the David to AFD this building. Jack N. Stock (talk) 19:45, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Too bad, but yes. I just don't see the coverage. BTW it's linked from List of buildings named Flatiron Building which is problematic because while it looks like a flatiron building it isn't named one. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:11, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment -- We don't delete poorly written articles when the topic itself is notable.

    What is missing from the article, what nominator seems unaware of, and what those weighing in with "delete" opinions seem unaware of, is that the infamous "Kettling" of about four hundred G20 protesters and innocent bystanders occurred in front of this building, fwiw. Geo Swan (talk) 00:08, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Actually we do delete poorly written articles per the essays WP:TNT and WP:JUNK.
Well, if the Kettling was notable, surely you will have independent reliable WP:SECONDARY sources that speak about it. That doesn't make the building notable, but the incident. --David Tornheim (talk) 00:17, 14 May 2017 (UTC) (revised 01:22, 14 May 2017 (UTC) per below)[reply]
  • WRT WP:TNT... Isn't it an essay? Note: from your wording a reader could believe you are stating it is a policy or guideline -- a wikidocument to be relied on. Further, isn't it talking about deletion as a last resort? Isn't deletion of articles on topics that are notable, reserved for articles where people have made sincere attempts to reach a compromise, and, in spite of genuine good faith efforts, have failed to do so?
  • WRT WP:JUNK... also an essay, not a policy or guideline. Could you please be careful not to imply essays are policies or guidelines?
  • While you did leave a comment on the talk pages of the article, and some related articles, weren't your talk page comments made shortly before you nominated them for deletion? Do you understand thi gives the appearance your talk page comments were not designed to be the beginning of a talk page discussion over your concerns? Geo Swan (talk) 01:17, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I was not trying to give any impression of when I wrote on the talk page relative to the WP:AfD--anyone can easily check the timestamps. You can point out the timing there if you want, but please don't edit my comments. I wrote on the talk page, because Jacknstock was actively adding WP:PRIMARY and anyone who is changing the article including him should be aware that it is a problem.
I did not go to the talk page before submitting this WP:AfD, because I thought it would be trivial to get agreement that this building is not notable and that there was no need to discuss at the talk page first but quickly get this resolved. Now that someone is editing the article, it is necessary to make comments about those edits on the talk page of the article not just here, since this is obviously not going to be resolved any time soon. Unfortunately this is dragging on forever, and we have very few new eyes on this. At some point, we are going to need to get new eyes on this... --David Tornheim (talk) 01:25, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that a notable incident occurred outside of a building doesn't confer notability on the building per se — the building is just a bystander in the notability of the incident, not a central player. Bearcat (talk) 16:30, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, WP:TOOSOON. He's made a great start to his career from a difficult beginning as a refugee, but I don't see significant coverage online from WP:RS on him or his startup, just passing mentions. Uncle Roy (talk) 07:34, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Clarifying my vote to "delete" in view of the special-pleading sockpuppet nonsense. He's probably not notable anyway, and if there's going to be nonsense, it's certainly not worth it. The rest of earlier analysis, below, stands. Herostratus (talk) 20:03, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
He looks to be an inspiring story, but... well let's see. Article says "He received the FSB and Worldpay young entrepreneur of the year award", but the source says GoCode Academy won it. Which GoCode Academy is his baby, plus how can an academy win "entrepreneur of the year", but that's what it says. Anyway its a local source without in-depth coverage of him, just PR-style speechifying.
Second source is an in-depth article, although it's in a fairly obscure venue, Tamil Culture website. But it is written by Rajeswaran. So it's not useful for establishing notabily, and is a sketchy source.
The third source is The Guardian. Notable! But it's not in-depth. It says "Robert Rajeswaran, chief executive of coding bootcamp GoCode, was forced to leave Jaffna, Sri Lanka with his family when he was a child. It took around two years of his family living as refugees before they were granted asylum in the UK. He says the whole experience of being a refugee gave him the hunger to make his business work. “There was standoffish behaviour towards refugees and immigrants in parts of society [...] This gave me a drive to succeed and prove that a refugee too can make it in this country through sheer hard work and perseverance.”". It's not in-depth but it's more than just a passing mention. It's something to build on.
But that's it for the article's sources. So to Google. Short mention at something called Entrepreneurial Spark. One-sentence quote in the local paper. Doesn't seem to be much else.
"Rajeswaran is a guest speaker at schools, colleges and universities across the UK" seems to have no source. The Guardian bit laid out above is describes with "He was featured on The Guardian..." which is maybe a bit of an overstatement, "featured". So there's some self-promotion going on here. And, it's a WP:BLP so... we want to be cautious. A fair amount of the material is not sourced. It's all positive or neutral, so its not an immediate pressing problem though.
So... does the Guardian few sentences, plus all the other stuff added together, add to meeting WP:GNG? Mnmnh... maybe not. He's on the bubble but sliding off IMO maybe. Herostratus (talk) 07:52, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Players have played in the FFA Cup Which is deemed as a professional soccer competition by the Football Federation Australia — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.130.147.192 (talk) 10:37, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Appearances in cup competitions must be between two fully professional sides to meet WP:NFOOTBALL. Swan United FC is not a fully professional club. Kosack (talk) 12:04, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: FIFA deems all matches played in a professional cup competition governed by a member federation (in this instance, Football Federation Australia and the FFA cup) as professional and competitive. Any sanctions given to clubs or players involved in the FFA cup can be escalated to FIFA for appeal. The State League and the FFA Cup is regulated to comply with national and international betting laws, with Bookmakers offering odds on matches.
We're not concerned with what FIFA or FFA deem to be professional, we are concerned with competitions (and by definition the teams competing within them) that are confirmed as fully professional per WP:FPL. This means that players who have not made senior international appearances have to have played for a club in one of these competitions or played in a national cup competition in a game between clubs from fully professional leagues. As these players have only played for clubs outside of Australia's fully professional structure, they cannot be considered notable per NFOOTY and there is nothing to indicate sufficient significant coverage can be found on any player to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 13:03, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment:We're not concerned either. These players as defined under FIFA regulations have played in a "professional" and "competitive" game of "association football".

  • Comment - this was, in my estimation, the largest custom record label of its time, and perhaps of any time. As a collector, I very frequently run across the products, seems like 80% of all high schools used this company at one time or another between 1960 and 1975 for their band and choir. Not sure if I can make this meet GNG or not, but I'd like to be careful before deleting this one.

  • Keep – Mindful that the article itself is weak, the label, in a general sense, seems notable, if for no other reason, for the fact that it was used by institutions of higher learning. Among other things, its discography chronicles a boat-load of 20th and 21st century works – many by U.S. composers – mostly performed by a wide array of universities. To that end, the label is a source for educators and researchers – including musicologists. For that crowd, the topic helps bibliographers. The label also chronicles the levels of music education at American institutions. In particular, the entire inventory of recordings represents a "sound history" of the level of performances reached by American intuitions. Incidentally, if you do a search on WorldCat under keywords, "Century" and "Saugus" (screening for "sound recordings"), you might get about 966 hits. In other words, its notability, or the possibility of any perceived notability, might better be ascertained by composers and music oriented academicians. The subject is obviously esoteric. Yet, I am suggesting that criteria for notability is, in this case, nuanced. I posted the article while researching a composer whose works were found on the label. Amplifying a point (see above) made by User:78.26, the lifespan of record labels – particularly those of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s – are akin to dog years. Eighteen years is an eternity for an independent label, particularly one that served a niche, non-profit sector – albeit a large sector that extended from coast to coast. For me, looking at a label can be frustrating when nothing is known, namely, among other things, whether it is dead or alive or custom or commercial. – Eurodog (talk) 16:23, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The source, while not all online, seem to help the subject meet at least WP:COMPANY if not WP:GNG. Thanks to Eurodog for finding them and improving the article. Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:35, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - a different sort of record label. There aren't any signed artists, you gave Century a wad of cash, you got a record made. However, the affect on the record industry by Century was significant. It is therefore an encyclopedic topic. Thanks to Eurodog for finding some sources so we can verify the statements in the article. I believe this now meets GNG guidelines. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 21:50, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fails WP:CORPDEPTH and GNG as only one of the references passes the required criteria. I've examined the references in the context of the requirements set out for acceptable sources that establishes notability and except for one Billboard article the sources provided fall short:
This obituary of Bud Keysor fails WP:ORGIND and is neither critical nor intellectually independent. The information and data appears to come from his relatives and therefore WP:PRIMARY sources and the obituary is about the person Bud Keysor and not the topic of this article (which is mentioned in passing). Finally, the source itself appears to be a regional source and describes itself as a "nonprofit community service organization that operates the Sata Clarita Valley's public television channel)".
This obituary of Jim Keysor (son of Bud) only mentions the company in passing and is insufficient to assist establishing notability.
This Billboard article and especially the opening paragraphs appear sufficiently intellectually independent when discussing the industry as a whole and therefore meets the criteria. Although most of the Century Record information comes from a company officer and would therefore fail WP:ORGIND as a WP:PRIMARY source, I believe the opening paragraphs are good.
This next Billboard article fails the criteria in WP:CORPDEPTH as it appear to be a simple PR announcement of the opening of a new facility.
The Signal article headlined "Company's woes still plague SCV" is from a regional newspaper called "The Signal" who self-describe as "a community newspaper serving the Santa Clarita Valley" which "covers local news, sports and community activities". In my opinion, this source fails as a reliable source "with a reputation for fact checking". Also, some of the information comes from the unverified and unsubstantiated memories of "Betty", a "former employee" who wished to remain anonymous but is obviously worried about her health.
There are two sources that I am unable to find as they do not appear online and perhaps those sources may meet the guidelines - if anyone could be kind enough to post a snippet, it may swing my !vote. Those sources are the "Music Journal Annual Anthology, pg. 171 (1959)" and the article from "Valley News". -- HighKing++ 17:15, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What does that mean? Do "esoteric" subjects need less coverage to meet GNG? The description of what this company did seems rather mundane and not surprisingly unnotable.

non-notable ice hockey player. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 01:30, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Füglister is the captain of the Philippines men's national ice hockey team, which may indicate some notability. The problem is that there is not much written about him, only a couple of articles on my search (and he is only mentioned--the articles are not about him). However, the Philippine Star does mention his name prominently in two articles. In one article he is the first player on the team mentioned (as one of the "prospects"). However, that may not be enough to make him notable. Whether or not we consider him notable may rest on how notable we regard the Philippines men's national ice hockey team. Garagepunk66 (talk) 02:35, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I think the question lies in the interpretation of WP:NHOCKEY and how it translate that rule to a non-North American context.

  • Delete: NHOCKEY doesn't need any "interpretation" here -- there is just no part of it under which the subject comes remotely close to passing. As a pro, his career in the Swiss mid-minors is far too low for notice. Far from having played in the A pool at the World Championships, the Phillipine national team is a new startup that joined the IIHF less than a year ago and has never played at any level in the Worlds, never mind the Olympics. As far as the GNG goes, we need far less to consider whether the Philippine Star or the IIHF constitute reliable sources (the former does, at least) than to recognize that those cites don't meet the GNG at all: the Star source does nothing more than mention his name in a list of other names, the second only quotes him, longstanding practice being that a source consisting solely of quotes from a subject does not support the notability of the subject. Neither provides the "significant coverage" in detail that the GNG requires. Ravenswing 22:15, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at today's news alone, BBC News, ABC News, NY Magazine, People; all where she was the central focus of the story. News AU covered her multi-million dollar deal with Kelvin Klein, and The Sun covered her upcoming prospects in film. She meets WP:GNG at every turn. All subsequent guidelines are secondary and really irrelevant when GNG has been so widely met. Mkdw talk 22:53, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - She's now clearly notable in her own right, has been the subject of a bunch of articles in a bunch of high profile outlets, and has now signed with a major modeling agency. We've kept pages for people with considerably less exposure than her, so this article is legit. -- Hux (talk) 07:16, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
