  • Delete Searches only show a few links to social networking sites. No reliable sources to establish subject's notability, fails WP:GNG. Moreover, the article completely violates WP:NPOV. It might be a case of WP:TNT. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 03:04, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I could not find mentions in large papers independent of the subject, indicating a lack of notability. —PaleoNeonate – 03:48, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Govt of India has already approved her well-respected researcher and professor within the organization. So Dr Ghazala Mulla is a well respected professor and deserves a place in Wikipedia. Authors in many books.

  • Comment: 45.124.48.238 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) has been edit-warring to insert multiple !votes into this discussion. That IP is a broadband address in Pune; and 106.210.217.23 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) – whose only contribution to Wikipedia is the !vote above – is a mobile phone IP from Pune.

Couldn't decide whether to AfD or CSD. It's promotional on one hand and a BLP problem on the other. The only sources are about that BLP issue, and it's unclear if he's notable otherwise. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:51, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The rest just doesn't have independent references and even if they did - is a a guy who runs a youth camp notable? There are 2 very bad reasons to keep the article.

  • @Tapered, would a speedy redirect to Lenny Lipton, the author, be amenable for you (alternative to deletion)? I don't think this needs a full discussion. Only reviews in Book Review Index are CHOICE (Nov 1983, p. 440) and PSA Journal (Sept 1982, p. 9), both of which I'd consider minor. czar 06:14, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested by the articles creator based on an inadequately supported claim to general notability and Poljanec's appearances for NK Aluminij. The latter does not does not satisfy WP:NFOOTBALL as the club was playing in the non-fully-pro Slovenian second division at the time. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:36, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Poljanec was part of NK Aluminij when they achieved promotion to the Slovenian top division in 2012 (see wiki article 2012–13 Slovenian PrvaLiga) and stayed there until later that year, when the league already begun play that season.Das osmnezz (talk) 21:49, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Delete – It doesnt matter if he was part of the team or not, he was uncapped in the top division. And he played in the 4th division for NK Pohorje in the 2012-13 season, debuting in late August 2012 in the 1st round (source), so there is no doubt. Snowflake91 (talk) 22:24, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

        • Interview with a player is a primary source, and one interview is not "significant coverage" required to pass WP:GNG, there would need to be several articles like that from multiple media. Snowflake91 (talk) 23:12, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested by the article's creator based on a single interview and Downes' spell at Arizona United.

  • Delete Per above, this is an WP:INDISCRIMINATE list of information that could go on forever. My name isnotdave (talk/contribs) 20:45, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep It needs improvements for WP:V, but meets notability standards very well. It meets the notability standards so well, in fact, that it's the self same reason why I think the list is actually a VERY discriminating list. (Only entries with Wikipedia articles have been allowed it seems). Therefore, I disagree with this notion that the list is WP:INDISCRIMINATE. If that is the main basis for deletion, then this should be reason enough to think differently. Anybody could easily call any list indiscriminate with the claim that it could go on forever, but not when the list is effectively limited to "Wiki link" entries only. Huggums537 (talk) 06:52, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Agree with Huggums537, certainly not WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Wikipedia is filled with list/comparison articles of this type, and they provide a useful resource. Needs better sourcing, but much of it is not WP:OR. No reason to delete. Greenman (talk) 08:25, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It is standard in the computing area of Wikipedia to have comparison articles like this. See Category:Software comparisons for the dozens of other articles. StarryGrandma (talk) 15:26, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, as per above discussion. It's perfectly notable information and such comparison pages are very well established. The issues are merely regarding sources. — LucasVB | Talk 06:14, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Transwiki to Wikiversity, if not appropriate for Wikipedia. Original research is allowed there. It might be a useful research/resource to list under v:School:Business Michael Ten (talk) 20:32, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The fact this article could easily fit in on a money saving 'comparison' site does not mean it can't also be a perfectly reasonable article. I would appreciate some way of defining what features we are supposed to be comparing in a NPOV manner though, people often balance such lists to show that their products have more features by including features the opposition never intended to be in their products. It is also very long and should be considered for splitting. As has already been pointed out, every entry on the list is notable, and this type of list is not generally considered indiscriminate. Dysklyver 09:24, 5 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above, WP:OR itself is not an argument for deletion and that should be solved by improving the article. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 08:06, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Wikipedia is not Consumer Reports. Indiscriminate list. An impressive body of work, but this is not an encyclopedic treatment, it is a comparative list of features. Carrite (talk) 16:46, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The subject here is notable, but Wikipedia is not a place for "Comparison of..." type articles. WP:TNT. - The Bushranger One ping only 03:55, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Those would be pretty good arguments for comparative lists if there were only something from WP:NOT that wasn't conducive to them. However, there's nothing I could find at WP:NOT that doesn't allow for comparative lists, which is why I'm assuming neither one of you actually quoted anything from WP:NOT for the comparison list argument? One editor did link to WP:NOT, but provided no quote related to comparison lists. Huggums537 (talk) 06:48, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but edit and rewrite. The biggest issue here is that the only people who are qualified to keep this up to date are employees of the companies listed. This is going to encourage companies to edit their own info. The second biggest issue is there's really no independent sourcing for the vast majority of this info. Anyone can say they support any feature and have it listed on their web site, even if it's not available yet, and most people wouldn't know. If you can get beyond those two big issues, then this needs to be edited so that the different parameters are explained, and if a feature is included with every vendor or all but one or two, that doesn't need to be an entire column of yeses. That's better as a line of prose. And, are all these features important? It's very cluttered. A question better answered by someone more familiar with these products than me.

A textbook, doesn't appear to meet WP:NBOOK. The obituary of the author references some newspaper articles that I can't find, but seem likely to be trivial. power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:21, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This book qualifies as a notable textbook under the criteria set forth at WP:TEXTBOOKS. The author's New York Times obituary makes the case succinctly: "This year, the ninth edition of Dr. Palmer's textbook, A History of the Modern World, was published, and overall sales are approaching two million. First published in 1950, it has been translated into six languages and is used in more than 1,000 colleges and universities as well as many high school advanced placement courses. . . . In 1987, The New York Times put it on its list of the 19 classic textbooks of all time, in all disciplines. The Washington Post in 1996 called it 'the first book to be elevated to the textbook hall of fame.'"[2] Likewise, his AHA obit reports: "Back at Princeton he completed his most influential work, a textbook on modern European history that became the gold standard for classroom books. First published by Alfred Knopf in 1950, A History of the Modern World was revised for subsequent editions in collaboration with Joel Colton. In the twilight of his unparalleled publishing career, Mr. Knopf named Palmer's textbook, in company with various literary giants, as one of his proudest accomplishments. Generations of college students valued its lucid prose, artful weaving of detail and argument, and (perhaps without realizing it) its humane liberal perspective. The textbook was translated into several languages, is still in print today, and has sold well over one million copies."[3] Now, what's needed to improve this article is more sources to further verify and elucidate this book's longstanding status. The recently-added and lengthy index of the book's contents, on the other hand, is not really the sort of thing we tend to include in Wikipedia articles. --Arxiloxos (talk) 21:07, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New York Times [4] states "A History of the Modern World, was published, and overall sales are approaching two million. First published in 1950, it has been translated into six languages and is used in more than 1,000 colleges and universities as well as many high school advanced placement courses." (meets WP:NBOOK point 4) Besides not many historical authors gets a necrologue in the New York Times

(also meets WP:NBOOK point 5). R.R. Palmer also has written many other historical literature [5], [6],[7] - quite a lot actually [8]. And American Historical Association [9] (of which Palmer has been President, apparantly) about this work states "A History of the Modern World was revised for subsequent editions in collaboration with Joel Colton. In the twilight of his unparalleled publishing career, Mr. Knopf named Palmer's textbook, in company with various literary giants, as one of his proudest accomplishments. Generations of college students valued its lucid prose, artful weaving of detail and argument, and (perhaps without realizing it) its humane liberal perspective. The textbook was translated into several languages, is still in print today, and has sold well over one million copies." And this imperative work of RR Palmer, must be put beyond any single doubts. Or in other words the, article as such meets WP:NBOOK and more. It can still be improved though. Please abort this awkward deletion matter. Boeing720 (talk) 21:30, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • comment The 2011 census of India about Dimapur says "Urban Agglomeration - Only City" (here), and about Nagaland, under "Large Metropolitan Region", says "There is no Metropolitan Region having population above 1 Lakh" (here) which somewhat counters the article's claim of an urban population of 230,106. Batternut (talk) 18:59, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you for spotting this. I was surprised to see this article. As far as I know, there is no metropolitan region (for example like National Capital Region (India)) in Nagaland till date. Dimapur city is the commercial hub of Nagaland (followed by Kohima and Mokokchung). Chumukedima is only a town in the Dimpapur district and contrary to what the article says, it is not the headquarters of Dimapur district.--DreamLinker (talk) 03:26, 5 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It is hard to figure out what to do with this: it was denied at AfC a few times because it was too essay-like, and I think it still is: "Axe manufacturing in PA" is not a topic in the sense that Corn production in the United States is a topic (as evidenced by publications such as this). Rather, this is a list of some companies that created tools there, based on local histories and some newspaper articles. Note the sourcing: many, too many, of the sources are privately published books, and we find a couple of websites. One searches in vain for the standard publication in the field among the citations, but worse, that publication seems to designate no special position to Pennsylvania as a location for the manufacturing of axes--they were made there, plentifully, but no differently from other states. In short, what we have here is not a topic but rather a kind of umbrella for excruciatingly detailed local histories who not by themselves seem to rise to the level of notability per GNG.

  • Keep I moved this page out of AfC on the recommendation of Legacypac and I saw no reason not to move this. I would characterise the sources as sufficient. What we've got to consider here is that the age of the sources, and the fact that they were covered at all is indicative of historical notability- that is to say that this brand would have been well known in the past. The fact we've got histories written on this company written in 1888, and sizeable mentions in books e.g. Ancient Carpenters' Tools by Henry Mercer (and others linked in the article) shows notability within the axe manufacturing niche. IMO, there's no doubt that this company was notable within its field (axe manufacturing) within its time (really 1800s), but my opinion is that were this company be alive today in the scale it was back then, it would pass GNG. jcc (tea and biscuits) 18:33, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

However, while iron works in other parts of the state are/were a big deal, looking through google and newspapers.com, I think this article does a good job summarizing the key parts of the industry in the state and don't see major thematic changes as necessary, much less deletion. On the contrary of suggestion that this page is too local, I would suggest some of the firms and individuals could have their own wikipedia pages and some of the material on this page moved to those pages.

  • Delete. I know I'm bucking the majority here, but I am truly finding it difficult to see this as an encyclopedic topic. If conflating an industry with a locality is all one needs for "encyclopedic value", where does it stop? Plumbing in Tyrolia? Button making in Wessex? Dog grooming in Arizona? And Wikipedia already knows the answer to this question -- an article requires a demonstration that authoritative sources have discussed the particular conflation as a real "thing". And what evidence for that do we have here? Nothing except the opinion of a guy who runs a website and wrote some self-published books. But neither of the two books cited here was registered at the Library of Congress and a search at WorldCat shows that they are not held by any of the more than 70,000 libraries in its worldwide system.

    I also thought it might be possible to re-purpose the article. It is essentially a history of Mann Edge Tools, to which has been appended a listing of brief "biographies" of other companies. But would Mann Edge Tools qualify for a separate article? Again, we have little more than a book published by a local museum (the Fagley text). And how much authority does this book have? Looking through the references, the highest page number being cited is 42, suggesting that this book is really little more than a pamphlet. And as with the Lamond texts, there has been no registration at the Library of Congress and no holdings by any library in the WorldCat system. I don't see this as enough to justify an article on the company. And as for the rest of the sources -- they're all local newspapers and guides that talk about local companies and industries.

    In all, the article's author has not demonstrated that this is an encyclopedic topic. I don't know if there is a publication with a name like Axe Maker Monthly but, if there is, that would be the perfect venue for publishing the research that was done here. But Wikipedia is not the place for it. NewYorkActuary (talk) 23:10, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I tried looking for differences in the responses of key players like Russia, China, South Korea and the US, but honestly, it's a major deja vu: the response is pretty much always the same. Russia and China strongly condemn and possibly support sanctions, while South Korea and US flex their military muscles in response. Perhaps there is some minor merit to seeing that the responses HAVEN'T changed rather than that they have. But the articles for the tests themselves all have key summaries of reactions already.

  • Keep. Firtsly, if a member of a notable band doesn't have sufficient notability outside the band, or enough to write about to merit a separate article, the thing to do is to merge and redirect the article to the band, not to start an AfD. The question then is does this individual justify an article? Most of the coverage I found related to his membership of House of Pain, but some didn't: [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19], [20]. There's enough coverage of his other group, La Coka Nostra among them to make it notable, which means he satisfies WP:NMUSIC as a key member of two notable bands.

Extreme claims require good citations. - there is a difference between what the subject is claiming and what the article states, so your point is not applicable. Did you follow the sources? The Mail and Guardian articles hardly seem fast to believe, they are quite mocking in tone.

  • Comment. When I deproded this earlier today, I pointed out in the edit summary "Has an entry in 'Bibliografia națională română', essentially a Romanian dictionary of national biography - this can be found in Google Books.

    • Bibliografia națională română (an obscure publication with around 1000 Google hits) is actually a bibliographic (not biographic) compendium of books published in Romania.
    • But that's somewhat beside the point, which is whether quotable sources, as contemplated by WP:BAND point 1, exist. If you can demonstrate they do, better still if you can actually quote them, we'd be getting somewhere.

  • Comment. It's not as if there's any shortage of coverage out there. These from the first few pages of Google results searching on band and singer's name: [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26], [27], [28], [29], [30], [31], [32], [33], [34], [35].There's nothing to stop you looking for sources before starting an AfD discussion. --Michig (talk) 18:28, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Unfortunately, the sources I see so far are of a pretty wretched level. Hara lead singer baptizes his daughter (local paper, too), Hara lead singer recounts meeting very patriotic Romanians in the US (in some no-name church newsletter), Hara lead singer sends good wishes to students at his former high school (local paper, of course), Hara lead singer will try driving despite not having a license.
    • Nothing here really indicates notability as a band, or is even quotable in an encyclopedic article. - Biruitorul Talk 21:18, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • The fact that the band gets so much coverage in so many sources indicates notability. --Michig (talk) 21:33, 21 October 2017 (UTC) Typically, you ignore the better sources, one stating (via Google Translate) "The band Hara released 6 LPs and the traditional Romanian carolin album Marlin, Dârlin - Pais'pe carols and a shout, which brought many awards from the media institutions (the best single - 2003, 2004, 2009, the most good creation - 2005, best album - 2004, 2005, 2006, 2009). In 2009, the band is also internationally acclaimed: The Ploua stele wins the 1st place (out of 50) at the prestigious "Song of the Year" creative contest - the Adult Contemporary section of the famous VH1 US musical channel. Success is repeated in 2013, at the same section, with the song Calling Out For You, Hara becoming the first Romanian band to have such a record." Now doesn't that sound like a notable band rather than one that as you claim has "no indication of notability"? --Michig (talk) 21:37, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • No, not when you actually try and verify the claims made. While Adevărul is generally a reliable newspaper, it seems they dropped the ball here.
        • I first tried to verify whether VH1 actually has something called "Song of the Year", with an "Adult Contemporary section". The closest I came was the VH1's Top 40 Videos of the Year - no mention of Hara. I also searched for any indication in English-language media that VH1 may have given any award of any nature to Hara in 2009 and 2013, but came up short. (Since VH1 is based in New York, it's reasonable to assume the US press would have picked up on something.)
        • In terms of the awards for best single - there's a vague mention of "media institutions" awarding these, but they're wholly untraceable.
        • Further down, the article mentions the Akademia Music Awards. A cursory search reveals that's simply a scam.
        • So it seems like Adevărul is recycling old PR material here, which basically falls apart when given any kind of scrutiny. - Biruitorul Talk 00:36, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It would appear that the subject of this article fails tests of notability WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO and so on. The references here are all passing mentions in other contexts.

Anyone can create a social media site, and I would argue that in Twitter, Instagram and Facebook links do not assist an assertion of notability. The WP:A7 tag was removed by the page creator.

@Rashkeqamar: If you're going to argue that subjects are notable, you need to be familiar with what our general notability guideline says, as well as our guidelines on WP:NOTABILITY. The fact that the subject has an IMDb presence does nothing to establish notability, the video clip you added does nothing to establish notability, and the two passing mentions Zedek has in the TOI and India.com articles do nothing to establish notability. Notability means that mainstream sources have written about the subject in depth, (no, interviews don't count) or that the subject meets one of our other criteria, like WP:NACTOR.

This was not a notable event by any stretch of imagination. Both the groom and the bride are notable in their own right, but they are not nearly notable enough for their wedding to be a notable event. We do have articles on some weddings, involving members of reigning royal families. In this case, however, the groom is the son of a man who was the son of a man who was king briefly. So only one person in the entire extended family was ever king of Albania, he reigned for only ten years, and he had to leave the country 80 years ago. That makes his grandson's wedding a rather ordinary society event. Thousands of weddings of film stars, musicians, sportsmen, politicians, businessmen etc. would be at least as notable as this event. The lack of any real sources also makes it clear that is passed by unnoticed in media. Jeppiz (talk) 22:09, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

He does run a family foundation and shares a name with an art gallery at a notable university, but they appear to have been founded by an earlier family member.

  • Delete. It's helpful to go back to general notability guidelines. While Mr Sordoni doubtless had a successful career and seems to have had positive influence as a philanthropist, there seems to be a dearth of sources which would a) discuss him in any depth, and b) be sufficiently independent from him. Yes, there are references and sources in the article, but they are passing mentions, mass produced/insight free (e.g. listing in databases of directors), or linked to his organizations, and thus not independent. I took a guick look in Google and didn't find others. Therefore we can't write an article about him. Martinp (talk) 20:59, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Walter Gordon was a junior NCO with E Company, 506th Infantry Regiment (United States) during World War II. Carson served in all three major actions involving E Company during the war. Neither his rank (corporal) nor his awards (highest Bronze Star) make him notable under WP:SOLDIER. After returning home, Gordon became an independent oil and gas lease broker.

  • Delete -- as a jr NCO, does not meet WP:SOLDIER. The coverage is routine. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:40, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - looking at newspapers.com results, Gordon is frequently mentioned in small-town society type articles, particularly by his friend Frank Dietlein at the Opelousas Daily World in Louisiana. None of these articles are about Gordon, but are rather little snippets and stories about life around town. In one case his wife and (I think) sister-in-law appear in a garden photo. This is a reflection of his being wealthy, although his WWII service is mentioned in one or two of the articles. I imagine other local newspapers might have more about him, but his name is common and I didn't find anything worth adding to the article. If anyone wants to make a more detailed effort, I think it is possible but not overly likely that more can be found. As with other E-company figures at AfD, this isn't meant to be a !vote, just a statement that outside of the BoB universe I don't see strong evidence of prominence.

It looks like she won one in the 32nd Young Artist Awards for Gunless but she did not have a billing block appearance in that film. But yes, she did get one. Is that enough to keep her around? [36] It's not an award at the level of WP:ANYBIO though. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 18:22, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That might be enough to keep her around then. Let me see if I can fashion an awards section for her. Still having trouble finding coverage on her other roles. Saw a book that said she was nominated for Santa Paws. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 18:52, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Even if a person does have a potential ANYBIO pass on the basis of an award (which is uncertain in the case of the Young Artist Awards), that still doesn't hand them an automatic inclusion freebie that exempts them from having to have any reliable source coverage in media — even the question of whether or not an award is notable enough to ANYBIO its nominees or recipients depends on the extent to which the media do or don't cover that award's nomination announcements and winner presentations as news. What I'm not seeing in this article, however, is any strong evidence of reliable source coverage about her at all — the article is referenced almost entirely to blogs, IMDb, primary sources and a Twitter tweet, and the only two acceptable sources both just namecheck her existence — one of them, further, solely in the caption of the promotional still, and not anywhere at all in the actual article — without being even slightly about her or her performances. Even if a person does have a potentially valid claim to passing a notability criterion, their includability still depends on the extent to which the article can or cannot be properly sourced — an article does not get to rest on crap sourcing just because a notability claim has been asserted — but the sourcing here isn't cutting it at all. Bearcat (talk) 17:58, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Bearcat the IMDb photos and sources provided so far are merely to verify that she was in the films and shows presented, as well as the events, so yes, they are primaries for the most part. They aren't helping much for her general notability.

As a director, he seems to be unknown outside of Scottish programs for promoting young talent and hasn't yet been recognized (or noted) by the public and the media.

While the NYT is an independent secondary source, independent from the company, the article fails the criteria for establishing notability as it is not intellectually independent. -- HighKing++ 12:52, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- TechCrunch doesn't do it for me. Y Combinator is a sponsor and therefore not independent. It is, however a huge user of wikipedia. The claimed 61,000 page views a month says nothing about the notability of the site or company. Alexa, by the way reports no use of the site, which make a founder's claim suspect in my view. TOOSOON.

Comment Yeah, fair point about TechCrunch and YCombinator's relation to it. I suppose the American Institute of Architects would be the strongest independent source.

Delete and merge - Fails WP:FUTUREALBUM and WP:NALBUM. Also, the release date has been changed so many times on this page from "second quarter of 2017"[48], to simply "2017"[49], to "third quarter of 2017"[50], to "December 8, 2017"[51]. All of the release dates were un-sourced. They are no confirmed track listing for the album, no album art, no confirmed release date, and no further information about the album. The "album history" of the page has nothing significant that deserves its own page and/or stands out from the En Vogue#2017: Electric Café and touring.

  • Weak Delete. I wouldn't say negative BLP - he was convicted - if at all the article positively reflects his anti-death penalty advocacy. In my BEFORE - he seems borderline notable (including coverage (TV review) in the Netherlands - [52]). If and when actually executed (which seems possibly soon) - he'll probably have quite a bit more coverage. However the poor article quality, the link farm, and lack of good sourcing - has me leaning to delete.

  • Soft redirect to Wiktionary, agreed. See more specifically WP:POINTWIKT within policy WP:DICDEF, which recommends this procedure for Wikipedia pages "which could potentially be proper articles but are dictionary-like stubs at the moment". If material for an encyclopedic article is later found, a soft redirect will have left the page history in place; no information will be lost. Nor does a soft redirect discourage re-creation of the page.
I've checked that the Wiktionary pages edgy and troll exist, although neither has definitions corresponding to the Internet usages described in the present Wikipedia page. When the attestations required by Wiktionary are found for those senses, they can be added to the relevant pages at any time.

Syrenka V (talk) 03:46, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Except this is already a disambiguated page name, the definition on this page has no references and isn't mentioned on Wiktionary, and there's no reason to think this would be re-created or that "Readers search for it on Wikipedia" (page created October 27, and 59 total views since then, many of which would have been AfD participants). I'm neutral as to Edgy being a soft redirect. power~enwiki (π, ν) 04:20, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I just now added this definition (slightly reworded as "Exhibiting behavior that is disconcerting or alarming in an effort to troll others") to the Wiktionary article edgy, with four attestations spanning the period from 2012 to 2017. They weren't at all difficult to find. I've also already made the Wikipedia article Edgy a soft redirect, with a hatnote to its former target; it had been a hard redirect to Edge (video game), which was not especially intuitive or helpful compared to the Wiktionary definition, but is probably worth a hatnote.
It's true that readers are unlikely to use "Edgy (adjective)" as a search term on Wikipedia—they would use "edgy" instead—but that doesn't mean they aren't searching for encyclopedic information on this word, or that the page is unlikely to be re-created. There is definitely an encyclopedic concept here; the only reason an encyclopedic article meeting the standards of WP:WORDISSUBJECT within WP:DICDEF cannot be written at present is that (AFAICT) primary source material on this term hasn't been synthesized into secondary sources. If you don't believe the primary sources contain "information on the social or historical significance of the term", check out the search I used to find attestations for the dictionary definition: a Google News search on "edgy troll internet".
I suppose there might be some question whether the focus is really on the term edgy or on the concept of Edginess—similar to what WP:WORDISSUBJECT says about No worries (focus on the term) versus Truthiness (focus on the concept). But the primary sources tend to show that the term is important to the people who go to such lengths to get it applied to themselves; I don't think it was an accident that the article created was Edgy (adjective) rather than Edginess, or that the likelihood of re-creation after deletion would be negligible. The cost of a soft redirect is very low even if I'm wrong about this; and if I'm right, the creation of a soft redirect will save a lot of trouble in the future.

  • Delete. We already have a link to Wiktionary from Edgy. We don't need to keep convoluted titles such as this when the term that people are going to use to search already gets them where they want to go. --Michig (talk) 07:16, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep – The article presently has 41 links to standalone biography articles. I myself don't view this number as "very few", as stated in the nomination. The article would benefit from copy editing, but it qualifies as per WP:NOTDUP relative to Category:AKB48 members. Also meets WP:LISTPURP as a valuable information source and navigational aid, as evidenced in part by the 3,551 page views it has received in the last thirty days.

  • Keep and trim. A lot of the details should be removed. This should really be a simple list of the name of the member and the time they were in this group. If you want to split between graduated members and other members, you could but it doesn't need to be split by Team as members have bounced around all sorts of teams.

  • Nom's comment -- There are entire sections that are uncited and contain no wiki links, such as:
At a very rough estimate, it appears that the list contains about 260 names. Given that 40 names are blue links, that makes perhaps 15% of the names on the list as having stand-alone articles. Some of those that I looked at do not appear to be independently notable, such as Sumire Satō. Pageviews are not generally taken into account when determining notability on Wikipedia.
Judging by the related article, the bands and their singles are notable, but the performers, out of a rotating cast of dozens (hundreds?), are unlikely to be so, with perhaps a few exceptions. Combining the names into a list is an indiscriminate collection of information and does not have encyclopedic value in the current form of the list. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:35, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Some of those that I looked at do not appear to be independently notable, such as Sumire Satō."
    Sumire Sato is notable (WP:GNG at least: Google News search, [53], [54], [55], etc.), as are many more members mentioned on the list. By the way, she also was / has been a member of 2 independently notable musical groups. It's just that there aren't many people on the English Wikipedia willing to write a proper article about her and everyone else. --Moscow Connection (talk) 00:36, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would actually prefer to have one list of members (including the former ones) and to have an additional template with the current roster (something as small as possible, with smaller font size etc., maybe collapsible) you can put in the main AKB48 article. But I don't think here is the right place to discuss it. Cause you just want to delete the information completely, that's not right. --Moscow Connection (talk) 00:45, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep we cannot call 41 items very few with a wave of hand, this contradicts nom statement wbo claimed very few have articles. Second although many don't have article, one of the purpose of list is development. Non linked titles in lists (and DAB pages) serve almost similar function as redlink, because they help overall development of Wikipedia. I said this as addendum to what has already been confirmed by many people above that the contents is indeed verifiable and referred in RS. For any other concern it can be trimmed or reorganized but deletion is not solution here.  — Ammarpad (talk) 10:28, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I disagree on the point of development. The link supplied, WP:PURPLIST also includes:
  • "Wikipedia is optimized for readers over editors, any lists which exist primarily for development or maintenance purposes (such as a list that consists entirely of red links and does not serve an informational purpose; especially a list of missing topics) should be in either the project or user space, not the main space."

The result was keep. The article was already stubbed down to remove the copyvio; I've revdel'd the copyvio from FindAGrave and the earlier copyvio from a Wordpress blog. The Bushranger One ping only 03:12, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Flagged as being in violation of copyright six months ago, and has yet to be sufficiently revised. Confirmed as being copied from the website FindAGrave ([56]), and being in violation of that website's copyright ([57], Section 2). The article could still be revised, but has gone far too long without it to keep the copyrighted content. I am Quibilia. (talk) 02:32, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per Smmurphy. Stub down to avoid copyvio. Delete. Copyvio. Article is a mess (lack of wikilinks, long paragraphs, etc.). He doesn't pass SOLDIER. His claim to fame comes from mountaineering - however there are quite a few climbers who did en-route to the Everest. a BEFORE does show some coverage - often in conjunction with his brother - Maj Jai Vardhan Bahuguna - who did in similar circumstances in 1985. Or in conjunction with the first Indians to reach the top (e.g. [58] - 3 got there, he turned back). If he passes notability as mountaineer (something I haven't generally assessed) - it is a borderline pass, and I doubt this would pass even an a clean article with no copyvio per WP:NOTMEMORIAL.Icewhiz (talk) 06:28, 3 November 2017 (UTC)Icewhiz (talk) 18:48, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, fails notability. WP:NOTMEMORIAL, applies. Kierzek (talk) 15:27, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - There is actually a lot of coverage of this individual under the name "Harsh Bahuguna" (for instance, google books gives [59]). I'm concerned about the copyright issues and endorse stubification or even speedy delete if necessary, but the individual himself seems to me to be suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia.

  • Week Keep The padma shri shows notability but WP:BIO1E also applies. All the coverage is related to his death in the 1971 International Expedition to the himalayas so that would be a preferable article to be merged in, except it doesn't exist yet.

A BLP that lacks sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. The subject is only notable for being a CEO of DogVacay; the coverage that comes up is not independent of the company and/or WP:SPIP, such as "DogVacay's Aaron Hirschhorn on how founders can control the ... TechCrunch-May 15, 2016" [60] or "Rover.com acquires Santa Monica dog-sitting start-up DogVacay ... Los Angeles Times-Mar 29, 2017 Last fall, Aaron Hirschhorn was telling investors that his Santa Monica start-up DogVacay had quarterly sales that tripled..." [61]. The company was acquired earlier this year, so he may not stay on as a CEO, so a redirect is not appropriate, IMO. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:14, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Dogvacay as a reasonable search term, per WP:ATD-R. North America1000 05:48, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nom's comment -- I'm generally not in favour of BLP redirects to a company name. The company was recently sold, so he may not be associated with it in the future. The company could be merged / the article moved, and the redirect would not be appropriate. He's otherwise a non notable individual, there's no need to preserve the article history. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:26, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Specifically lacking reliable sources the cover needed biographical details on the subject fails WP:BIO, GNG, and BLP. Coverage consists of WP:SPIP sources that significantly cover and promote the subject's startup DogVacay, not this subject, hence notability is not inherited from association with a company. Also, the WP:SPIP sources indicate this page is intended to be another advertising platform for subject's company (and possibly the subject as well) - Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion WP:PROMO. I also agree that a redirect in this instance would not be appropriate because the company has been acquired by another entity. More acquisitions could make this situation even more tenuous. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:05, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fails to meet WP:GNG. This is an article about a website, namely beyondexgay.com. It is not an article about a movement, a group, or a concept; that article is already present at Ex-ex-gay. This is just an article about a non-notable website; it is so non-notable, that Alexa doesn't have enough data to rank it, and the home page copyright lists only 2007-2013. One might suggest a merge to Ex-ex-gay, but there is nothing here worth saving, with the possible exception of the url itself, which could be added to External links.

  • Delete as nom. Regarding the url as External link: per WP:EL#What to link I don't see any reason to mention the website in Ex-ex-gay#External links, but I don't see a reason to exclude it either, if someone wishes to have it. There's already completely dead websites there, so why not this one. Mathglot (talk) 01:48, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article has been given almost 5 years to try and improve but is simply a repository for promotional COI editing at the moment. There's little if any evidence that the subject meets WP:GNG. Being mentioned in national newspapers, or writing the occasional article isn't enough. Neither is being one of 36 people to get a 'Brand Leadership Award'. Time for the article to go.
