  • Delete Non-notable congressional candidate Power~enwiki (talk) 07:30, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I created this page because he is a big time player in Midwest politics regarding Israel and foreign policy and also because it had long been discussed that he was running for Congress. He is officially running now, and being a main candidate in one of the most competitive races in the country certainly warrants notability. This is not just any candidate in any race, it's one that's always targeted nationwide and has millions upon millions funded into it, and is always a nationwide target. Although I think his notability was established prior to running (although I certainly understand why others may not see it the same way) I think it's clear that now his notability is without question. Also with the fact that the Republican candidate has won in the midterm election in this district every time for the last thirty years or so, his legitimacy is certainly there, especially per the ABC coverage. Illinoiswiki10 (talk)
  • Delete. Wikipedia does not accept candidates for office as automatically notable just for being candidates in and of itself — regardless of how "competitive" the race is perceived to be, we do not base our inclusion criteria on predictions of future accomplishment. Rather, if you cannot show and properly source that the candidate was already notable enough for a Wikipedia article for some other reason independent of his candidacy, then he does not become notable enough for a Wikipedia article until he wins the seat. But this is not demonstrating any preexisting notability, and is based on a mix of primary sources and the purely WP:ROUTINE volume of campaign coverage that would simply be expected to exist for all candidates in all elections — so the volume and depth of coverage is not approaching what it would take to deem his candidacy special for any reason. (The standard for that is Christine O'Donnell, where the coverage exploded so far out of proportion to the routinely expected that her article is actually longer and cites more sources than the article about the guy she lost to does.) No prejudice against recreation in November 2018 if he wins, but nothing here gets him a Wikipedia article today. Bearcat (talk) 13:24, 12 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG as no sources are available outside of college stat pages and articles that merely mention his name as part of a transaction, also fails WP:NGRIDIRON as he was not drafted and has yet to appear in a regular season game. Fails WP:NCOLLATH as he has not gained national media attention, he's not in any Hall of Fame, and did not win a national award. Definitely a case of Wikipedia:Too soon.

Lack of relevance. Other queens on the show have also had their pages deleted for lack of relevance. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Acid Betty, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tatianna (drag queen), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Derrick Barry (2nd nomination), and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Derrick Barry. Most of the points still hold up. It's a minimally sourced WP:BLP of a person whose primary claim to notability is having been a contestant on a reality show. I'd understand if she won the season, the winners tend to have more claims to notability but in this case, she hasn't won.

Given the name of the user who first created the page (User:Sashavelour), I'm wondering if it's a promotional thing created by the person themselves. Oath2order (talk) 20:52, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Completely unsourced article about a defunct radio station. While this was kept in 2010 when it was bundled in with a bunch of other radio and television stations at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DZOZ-TV, that was the wrong decision in this particular instance. What passes NMEDIA is not the mere assertion that a radio station was duly licensed and originated some of its own unique programming -- both of those are things that can be and frequently are falsely claimed about stations that actually fail one or both conditions, so per WP:NMEDIA what actually determines whether a radio station gets an article or not is the extent to which we can or can't properly verify those things as true through the use of reliable sources. But seven years after the original discussion, there still isn't hide nor hair of a single source here -- most of the other articles in the original bundle do have sources present, but this one does not. And if we can't verify it, we can't keep it. Bearcat (talk) 18:53, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I have not been able to trace a single reliable source for the existence of this radio station: everything I have found is on wikis, pages that have copied word-for-word from this Wikipedia article, and other such unreliable sources. I am not convinced that the station ever existed, but if it did it is clearly totally non-notable. In either case it is not suitable as the topic of an article.

Other bands or small club promoters will notice through word-of-mouth. There will be club gigs etc. There will posters for those and after a while there will be coverage by fans through social media. Eventually, boutique record labels or bigger promoters will become aware. There will be features at Wacken Open Air. At this point, there should be plenty of google results. At this point, notability is established. I'd also assume for a German musician that there is an article in DE Wiki first. This is not the case. Wikipedia has clear guidelines which have evolved over many years and through lots of controversy, consensus was reached. The result is WP:BAND - which is not achieved in this case. Wikipedia is not a means of promotion to achieve notability. It follows notability.pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 13:08, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I just wanted to do an favor for him :( nothing bad about this I guess. But well then deleted the article and link it back to a guy who doesent anything to do with Chris Straub. Very sad thats wikipedia will get obselete in the future, cause the people will use google more then wiki. And the reasons will be things like this here. And I guess, I didnt make bad work on the article. I looked at other new articles and the most of them are really bad and should be deleted. But the link to a comic guy is and will be not right. So guidlines here guidelines there... wrong is wrong. And I tryed to erease this error. Just think about it. Encyclopedia is a thing which should be completed and not something who does link wrong things.Deathmetal guitar (talk) 14:09, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Don't worry about it too much, Deathmetal guitar, you did nothing really wrong. Google is a search engine, so it has a completely different purpose than this encyclopedia does. A large percentage of our traffic comes from Google, after all. As Chris Straub gets bigger and more popular, perhaps he'll eventually get noticed by established sources - time will tell :) ~Mable (chat) 10:09, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah I know, but I think he earns this for his good musical work :)and why not to try ? Even if the article gets deleted I guess I did something good or tried :D. But as fact of notability, there are not so much metal musicians out there which make instrumental death metal so he is a very rare artist in this genere.Deathmetal guitar (talk) 12:52, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You are only allowed to weigh in as a "keep" once. Also, a trivial mention in a genre fan blog and in someone's Twitter feed doesn't come close to "significant coverage" criteria worthy of a wikipedia article, regardless of it being independent of the musician in question.

List of Ben & Jerry's ice creams[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Generally non-notable list of ice cream flavors. The Table section contains a complete caloric and nutritional breakdown of all their ice cream flavors, which is readily available on the Ben & Jerry's site, so it violates WP:NOTMIRROR. Some of the more "notable" flavors could be merged into the main Ben & Jerry's article.

I'll also point out that this bears considerable resemblance to an article that was deleted 7 years ago; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Ben & Jerry's flavors. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 14:27, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- I love Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream and I want this to be a good page, but it is not kept up to date has flavors are cycled in and out of their product. And the table contains too many useless columns with hard-to-find information which scares away interested editors (like me). A simple list of names, ingredients and dates would have been better but I'm not touching that table. It's all way out of date now so no page is better than an old page in my opinion.

  • Delete per WP:NOTDIR. Serves no purpose other than to list a companys' products, complete with overtly promotional descriptions. The article started off as a one line stub in 2011, eventually evolved into a table and then someone copypasted Ben & Jerry's#Original flavors and sundaes. While I cannot see what List of Ben & Jerry's flavors looked like in 2010, I would not be surprised if it were something similar to this. If I wanted to know what flavours and nutritional information a food product had I would visit the brand's website or look at the label, not search for it in an encyclopedia. Redirecting is pointless unless I genuinely wanted to an encyclopedia to host this stuff. What prose is in the list article already exists in the article on the company, leaving nothing to merge.

    • Comment I think having a weak charting single in this case shouldn't mean the article is kept - as she still clearly fails WP:GNG. For the UK version of The X Factor, we create lists of contestants such as List of The X Factor finalists (UK series 9) because they're mostly not notable enough for an independent article. If our sockpuppet had done this, it wouldn't have been so bad. Or if the article actually had some information about this Reem person, rather than just a table and a list with one entry, then I might be changing my mind. If The X Factor is as big in Denmark as it is in the UK, there should be some interest in the contestants and some information, but it may take a Danish speaker to find this. Or maybe we could look to the Danish Wikipedia for inspiration (da:Reem). anemoneprojectors 10:35, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

      There is full speed ahead of Reem Hamze after she participated in "X Factor" where she ended up in a super nice second place. Since then she has a record contract with Sony Music, and then she landed the job as a museum for Cecilie Bahnsen, who won the Danish Design Talent prize and half a million kroner yesterday.

      Reem had challenged herself in Friday's "X Factor" live show by not only singing the song "Lost in the girl", but also showing her skills on a dance floor at the same time.

      It was in collaboration with judge Mette Lindberg that the 17-year-old soloist had come to impress with choreography during his performance.

      ...

      Throughout the eight years, there has been room for a bit of each, but it is primarily the hip-hop, freestyle and dancehall genre that Reem likes most.

      She has been taught at several dance schools in Zealand, and now she is dancing with a friend at a youth school approximately twice a week.

      From Google Translate:

      Reem is born and raised in Denmark. Half of her family lives in Palestine, and the other half lives in Lebanon. It was on a holiday in Lebanon, where they visited the family that, as a 12-year-old, she was ready to give her a testimony of her huge song talent. In front of his father's family. That is, his nine siblings and their children, which meant a total of 30-35 people. The mother's 13 siblings and their children were not present in the small apartment. It was the parents idea that she should sing in front of the big family. They had noticed the extraordinary talent of the daughter - but only unfolded within the four walls of the home in Valby near Copenhagen. It was a big mouthful for a little girl who was very shy at that time.

      ...

      Reem participates in this year's 'X Factor', and she has by-law judges and Denmark by storm. The teenager has Managed to touch Judge Mette Lindberg to tears with his incredible voice, which leads to Amy Winehouse - the now-deceased English song star, to which Reem everywhere is compared.

      ...

      In the past many hours have been spent in the dance room. For eight years, the sporty girl went to dance and folded Out in hip hop. The combination of singing and dancing is also something she admires with Beyoncé, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez and Amy Winehouse, who she has been compared to.

      From Google Translate:

      This year's X Factor is also exciting because the show has a participant who has shown internationally from the start. I'm thinking of the favorite Reem. In addition to a nice voice and a strong singing talent, she also has the ability to occupy the entire room when she is on stage. You are quickly drawn to her self-confidence and charm. And thanks to her dance skills, she also knows how to move on a scene.

      ...

      After a short videoconference, Reem shows up and opens the living space with Zara Larsson's "Never Forget You". ...

      ...

      My high expectations for Reem are happily fulfilled as she performs the Bieber / Skrillex hit "Where Are You Now?". Judge Mette Lindberg was quite right when she initially said that Reem wanted to show everything she could. She is lost. She is a 17-year-old green poll, but acts like a diva. Diva in the cool way. She has so much authority and is undoubtedly the biggest, and perhaps the first real, X Factor star in Denmark.

      ...

      However, Reem puts its competitors on the wall when she sings Lukas Graham's vocal on "Golden" along with Brandon Beal . Not only because of her singing talent, but also because of her stage performance. Even Christopher , whom she also has a duet with, must bow in the dust. Reem is born to stand on a stage. And she will also be exciting in 30 years.

      ...

      Unfortunately, Reem's potential win song "All That I Want" is a boring case. It is screwed together in a pop-up machine without spark. A number you soon forget. And it seems she does not feel at home in that number. Could she even think about it? Still, I see her as a winner, and the faster she can get rid of the X Factor links, the better for a real music career.

However, she was offered a plate contract immediately after the end. Gaffa's reviewer rated her with "She has so much authority and is undoubtedly the biggest, and perhaps first real, X Factor star in Denmark." Reem's voice has been compared to Amy Winehouses.

      Friday after Friday, 17-year-old Reem shines on stage when she sings and dances on in X Factor.

      And the young singer - and the Danish television viewers - have one particular person to thank Reem today for the X Factor scene.

      Namely Reem's father.

      According to Reem, her father's merit was that the 17-year-old star spy discovered that her singing talent stretched beyond the usual.

      On a holiday he asked Reem to sing for the rest of the family, and afterwards her family was speechless about the young girl's singing talent.

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

  • You did. And it's a JNN argument from what I can tell. We don't much care why she's notable. Only that the sources are in depth, reliable and independent.

This article reads like a personal essay speculating about a potential combination of four technologies to achieve more efficient or more economical orbital launches. Each of these technologies is covered by relevant Wikipedia articles, for example Air launch to orbit and Skyhook (structure), but I failed to find any WP:RS grouping them under the moniker "combination launch system". I only found a discussion of this approach on a personal web site by Mr. Eagle Sarmont which promotes this concept and the author's book discussing it. An article about that book, recently created by the same editor, is currently being considered for deletion per lack of notability. Finally, the part about Chinese archers having "invented" combination launch system by attaching gunpowder rockets to their arrows is just… bizarre. — JFG talk 12:32, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

List of county routes in Hampshire County, West Virginia[edit]

List of county routes in Hampshire County, West Virginia (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 is a list of most (all?) roads in Hampshire County, West Virginia, except for streets in towns. Some may be of a little local importance, but most of them are just ordinary little country roads without a hope of notability. Do we really need a full directory of these roads? There are a few other lists of this sort for other counties; if this nomination results in deletion, I plan to nominate the others. Nyttend (talk) 01:04, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Lists of county routes are fine to have, as long as these routes do not get individual articles. Dough4872 10:55, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - This is just a list of roads without any context. I'd like to know why they're notable, how the routes are numbered, and be able to verify it with references. I feel like West Virginia county roads would be better covered in a capstone article that doesn't yet exist. –Fredddie 11:18, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is a good idea to have a capstone article about the county route system in West Virginia but we should also have by-county lists. This list may be not in the best shape but that should not be a reason to delete it. We should improve it not delete it. Dough4872 11:44, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • So why is it fine to have such a list? Why can't we have huge lists of other non-notable things, then? Nyttend (talk) 12:10, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • County routes are notable enough for a list since the county bothered to number them in a system. However, only the group is notable and individual routes are generally not notable enough for individual articles. Any type of roads below numbered/lettered county routes are generally not notable enough to be covered in even a list. Dough4872 12:16, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's not how it works; WP:GNG still applies. This list provides zero context for why they're notable. None. –Fredddie 19:39, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • What do you mean by "set up like Florida, Minnesota, or New York"? It sounds like WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, but I want to be sure that's what you meant. –Fredddie 19:39, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • So you're saying that we should have a system of lists embracing basically every road in the state, outside municipalities. Why not have a similar set of lists for all the streets in municipalities? And response to Dough — whether or not the county bothered to number them is irrelevant to notability, irrelevant to whether we should have a directory of them. What if the county numbered roads maintained by other entities, e.g. townships? That's what's done in some Pennsylvania counties; go to Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and you'll see road numbers in small print on the name signage for roads out in the townships. What's more, they're just numbered for administrative purposes, since everybody uses the road names in Lawrence County. Is it appropriate to have a full list of such non-notable roads for the whole county, and if it is, how would such a list not be a violation of WP:NOTDIR? Nyttend (talk) 22:12, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would generally consider county routes the lowest tier of numbered route systems that should be covered in a list. Township roads, even if in a lettered/numbered system, are too local in nature to get even lists. Dough4872 22:58, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:NOTDIR. County route systems that are not numbered uniquely as part of a state scheme are not notable.  V 23:12, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:NOTDIR. Neither the individual roads nor the countywide collection of roads appear to have independent and reliable sources with significant coverage as needed to satisfy general notability. Some editors love to create complete lists of named or numbered things, but that is not consistent with WP:NOT. The ability to verify their existence is insufficient to justify their appearance in the encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of every verifiable thing, or we would have similar articles about "The firetrucks of Smithville" or "The mailboxes of Jonesville," when there is an official listing of firetrucks by model, number, age and firestation, or mailboxes by street address. There are many nonnotable but verifiable sets of things operated by governments which do not belong in encyclopedias. Edison (talk) 14:37, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Consensus with the above examples is that county roads can be notable enough for a list but are not generally notable enough for individual articles unless they satisfy WP:GNG. There have been multiple discussions on this subject in the past. Nominator's arguments apply to the notability of individual roads, and are a good explanation of why they are not individually notable, but that is not the issue here.

  • Keep. Here's something might actually be useful! Lots and lots of articles on roads by region in Wikipedia. Hyperbolick (talk) 13:20, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaning delete. Some counties consider every road to be a county road. Should we keep around lists of those? No. There has to be some standard of notability. I would be happy to reconsider if some secondary sources/notability were given here, but I'm not seeing it, so I have to vote delete. --Rschen7754 05:48, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment No evidence has been provided for nominator's assertion that this list includes all roads in the entire county. And considering there are only about 200-250 roads listed, it seems unlikely that that is the case. By contrast, Virginia, which numbers all roads in most counties (though they are technically state roads) has numbers in the thousands, and even the tens of thousands in a few counties. So it seems highly unlikely that this includes every single road in the county. Smartyllama (talk) 17:04, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

      • A simple Google Maps search for "Hampshire County, West Virginia" shows numerous minor streets which do not appear on the list and are not numbers in Google maps, and a couple which are numbered in Google Maps and correspondingly appear in the list. It is clear that this does not include every single street in the county, as a similar list in Virginia would. I urge those who voted on that basis to reconsider. Smartyllama (talk) 19:00, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • Are you really suggesting that people who !voted per WP:NOTDIR should reconsider because it's not a complete list? Should we just ignore #7 in NOTDIR? –Fredddie 21:40, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
          • No, I'm suggesting that those who voted because it's a complete list of every single road in the county, while saying articles about counties in other states where this is not the case are notable, should reconsider because that's not how West Virginia defines county roads. It is a complete list of county roads in the county. That does not include every single road in the county, nor is it intended to. After looking it over, Rschen7754 is the only one who voted on those grounds. My apologies for suggesting there are others. I would still encourage him to reconsider, but your vote, while I disagree with it, is not based on false premises, so I would consider it reasonable. I disagree with it, but reasonable people can disagree. Smartyllama (talk) 23:07, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
            • I am willing to change my rationale to WP:INDISCRIMINATE, but without some profound argument, I will not change my overall stance, regardless of whether the list contains 100 percent or 70 percent or even 40 percent of the roads in Hampshire County.  V 23:36, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
            • Smartyllama, please read my vote (and the nominator's rationale) carefully. I don't think anyone voted delete "because it's a complete list of every single road in the county". --Rschen7754 00:38, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, these are WP:MILL roars, no indication that the topic as such is discussed in sources and meets WP:NLIST.  Sandstein  06:22, 19 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as per WP:NOTDIR. I think when we choose to have lists of individual items, sometimes each is individually notable and in some cases each is not, but this is reaching too far down the notability ladder for inclusion. I don't think anyone would argue if this was numbered state roads, but this is only 1/2 step up from list of every paved road in a county, and I think this is simply too much minutia for an encyclopedia, and is of dubious value to the reader.

I have no wish to denigrate this young man's memory or to cause upset to his family and friends, but riders at CT level are not generally considered to meet notability guidelines.

No third-party coverage beyond his death (several search results turned up an NFL player of the same name), and in all probability the way that he died and the event itself is why it's in the news as much as it is. Sports-related fatalities are going to make headlines no matter who is involved, before they're ultimately forgotten. sixtynine • speak up • 21:43, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say merge to Tour of the Gila, but there is nothing to merge - his death should be mentioned in the event, sure, but as for himself, there is nothing to say except that he suffered an accident during the race.

  • Keep. What WP:GNG wants is "multiple" instances of "in depth" coverage (and IMO helps a lot if it is a "notable" source rather than a local paper). Well here is the Denver Post (big notable paper) with a fairly in-depth biography, several paragraphs describing where he went to school and so forth. As to other mentions, Here is Australia, passing mention though. The wire services picked it up, and the Arizona Republic and the the Los Angeles Times and NBC sports picked it up. Notable venues, but passing mention of him, only described in relation to the crash. Possibly article should be renamed to Death of Chad Young maybe. It's true that the Spanish Wikipedia has a longer article, but not really better refs than the one I described here. My take is:
  • You've got somewhat in-depth coverage in the Denver Post, a notable paper.
  • And mentions, at least describing in him, in the LA Times and other notable papers.
  • And of course he is described or at least mentioned at cycling sites worldwide, like Spain, and Australia we saw earlier. Here is slightly in-depth coverage, couple paragraphs, although in a cycling-specific venue not notable in the wider world. here's his page at Pro Cycling Stats, with his stats and vital statistics.
It's enough, IMO, when you put it all together, for him to squeak by WP:GNG. Herostratus (talk) 17:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The other hits are to his self-published Instagram. The Google Scholar links do not appear to be associated with the person in question. After narrowing the search with the keyword "China", the only significant and reliable coverage of this vlogger is from a Forbes article on the hazards of making friends in China.

  • Delete. About the only strong evidence of notability here is the Google Scholar hits — and as written, this article doesn't actually make any claim about him that would enable us to properly verify that the Google Scholar hits are correctly for him, rather than an accidental conflation of two or more different people with similar names. (For example, the Google Scholar results seem to wobble all over the place from cancer research to dementia research to studies of helmet use among cyclists — what could Chow possibly be studying at Western that crosses over all three of those distinctly unrelated topics? Neither this biography nor even the Google Scholar page tells us what his major is, for starters, and even the LinkedIn page linked from Google Scholar just says the generic "medical science" rather than being sufficiently specific either — just like this article, it also places much stronger emphasis on his community involvement résumé than it does on anything that might make him notable as a medical researcher.) So, long story short, we need much stronger verification than this before we can consider him notable for any of it. Bearcat (talk) 19:34, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. A quick spot check suggests that another person named Edward Chow, who is a professor at the same institution (Sunnybrook, Toronto), also appears on most of these papers...or it's probably more accurate to say that Ronald Chow appears on all of Edward Chow's papers, the latter probably being the father of the former, although I could not conclusively demonstrate this hypothesis. If there is such a relationship, it would basically invalidate any claim to notability. Agricola44 (talk) 20:44, 15 May 2017 (UTC).[reply]
  • Delete. I though it imaginable that Edward has added his name to Ronald's papers to give them a chance of being published, but almost all are work with multiple other authors. There's a few single-author papers like "A pilot project of an online cross-age tutoring program – Crescent school virtual learning (vLearning)" -- this could indeed be something a student might do, and there are a few related studies of young adults in various towns in Ontario--see the link to the book, and note the publisher.

The article does not meet WP:GNG. There is extremely low coverage, and all those are not independent sources, mention him in passing as someone with an official funcion and/or are broad statistics databases. This player might seem to meet WP:NSPORTS, but the assumption of notability isn't correct, in this case. Burning Pillar (talk) 00:45, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Happy to be proven wrong here, as my knowledge of the finer details of English football aren't what they used to be, but if he played for a team in a "fully-professional league", WP:NFOOTY tells me he's notable. Unless I'm misreading something, he did precisely that, did he not? BigHaz - Schreit mich an 01:03, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per BigHaz. Ainscow played in the Football League 23 times and so easily passes WP:NFOOTY. The nominator's points have already been addressed at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Sports notability guideline and long-standing consensus and discussion have led to where we are now. I should add that pointy nominations like this don't help your case on that page. Keresaspa (talk) 01:14, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Should also be noted that the nominator already went through this process little over a month ago and the overwhelming consensus was keep: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andy Ainscow. All the points raised there remain equally relevant now. Probably should speedy close this one. Keresaspa (talk) 01:16, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Not having a horse in the race as far as the RFC is concerned, I'd point out that I don't see how a procedural closure saying (in effect) "this is going to go nowhere in terms of changing consensus" is an endorsement for changing the current status quo. Had there been anything but that in the closure of the RFC, you'd be right in what you're saying here. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 01:40, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, WP:NFOOTY tells you that it is likely that he is notable. You all probably made the mistake most people make: They read WP:NFOOTY without reading WP:NSPORTS#Applicable policies and guidelines, which tells you that the article is still supposed to meet the WP:GNG, and I mentioned above why it does not. It isn't too surprising that we don't have that much coverage if the statistics provided are indeed correct:23 appearances with 4 goals as forward in Football League Third Division aren't something that usually generates significant coverage in reliable independent sources.Burning Pillar (talk) 01:23, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This is a form of forum-shopping WP:FORUMSHOP, making the same proposal only a few weeks after being declined. Accept the consensus and move on. Secondly, as Ainscow's career was pre-internet, WP:BEFORE requires you to make a reasonable search of off-line sources. You make no mention in either AFD of any such search. As for your argument about WP:GNG, the topic is not required to meet both WP:NSPORTS and WP:GNG, just one or the other. To quote WP:GNG:

    A topic is presumed to merit an article if it meets either the general notability guideline below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline... [my emphasis]

    Jack N. Stock (talk) 03:00, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You did indeed fall into the trap.
1. Per WP:N An article must meet either GNG or SNG.
2. The SNG WP:NSPORTS tells you that the article needs to meet the GNG.
3. Conclusion: The article needs to meet the GNG.
And about WP:BEFORE: Read it again. Especially D. Yeah, there could be some not so easily accessible sources. However, they were not added in the many years of the article's existance, so it is a reasonable assumption that they don't exist.Burning Pillar (talk) 05:14, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hold on, that logic doesn't work. Reading from the very top of the NSPORTS page, we see the following (in bold, no less). "The article must provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline or the sport specific criteria set forth below." Being that there are reliable sources showing that he meets the second criterion of the criteria for footballers (and, strangely enough, that there were the same things a month and a bit ago), we can therefore conclude that he does indeed meet the "sport specific criteria set forth below", which means he's fine. But let's not stop there. Second paragraph, same page: "Failing to meet the criteria in this guideline means that notability will need to be established in other ways (e.g. the general notability guideline, or other, topic-specific, notability guidelines)". The wording there is pretty clear, I'd say. In the event that the subject doesn't meet the specific criteria, then we need to turn to GNG (or his notability may stem from something else, but that's another story), rather than the other way around. This was what the rules were a month and a bit ago before you had a shot at changing them, which didn't work out. Assuming the inevitable here, will there be another RFC and the renomination of this article a third time? BigHaz - Schreit mich an 05:33, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, no. See... what it says is that you can assume that the subject does meet the GNG, but this presumption is dubious here. And if you read WP:NFOOTY, then you can see that this player meets a criterion that is not that reliable.Burning Pillar (talk) 12:00, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Porn actress that fails WP:PORNBIO without qualifying awards and fails WP:GNG without significant coverage by reliable sources. Citations in the article don't support the content. Despite claims in the article, the only significant award win is a scene-related XBIZ Award. An independent search for sources yielded trivial mentions, cast listing and lots of press releases. • Gene93k (talk) 00:12, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as tons of sources online[7] (Granted not all are brilliant however notability is certainly there), Has won a significent award and therefore passes PORNBIO #1 as well as GNG. –Davey2010Talk 01:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Most if not all of these hits consist of photos with captions, cast lists, and other passing mentions. Again, a raw GNews search dump is not helpful without identifying specific, non-trivial RS coverage. As for a significant award win, please identify it. NightMoves does not qualify. The actress has several AVN Award nominations but no wins. And scene-related award wins are excluded from PORNBIO. • Gene93k (talk) 01:21, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Women in the porn biz won't get coverage from The Times and WaPo. Quick google search her name comes up in a Las Vegas Sun article [8] where she's mentioned in a way she's a name drop draw for the event. I'm sure she's notable in the porn biz, those that follow porn and their stars, but the RS by WP standards is thin at best. Cllgbksr (talk) 04:04, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per Davey2010, sheer volume of nominations, like Susan Lucci. Hyperbolick (talk) 13:07, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Looking more thoroughly, doesn't seem to be supported. Now I think it should be kicked back to Draft space with a deadline to improve. Draft space work is automatically deleted after a time if not improved. Hyperbolick (talk) 18:31, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom's extremely accurate analysis. Laced with BLP violations, utterly phony citations and unreferenced publicist prose. This is not an article, but an act of vandalism. How brazen? The article claims the subject won four AVN Awards in 2017. Not only does AVN itself say she won none [9], but several of the categories she "won" in, like the "Fan Award : Best BJ Giver", don't even exist. Speedy Delete as G3, because other than identifying her as a porn performer, virtually everything else here is laced with "blatant and obvious misinformation" and because deliberately creating a deceptive article should be treated as vandalism. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006. (talk) 02:39, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
