The result was no consensus. There's clearly no consensus to delete Limey (UK '70s band), but there's a broad consensus to not keep the album articles, so I shall redirect those to the band article. Before doing that, I will move the article to the more standard Limey (band). A Traintalk 06:58, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NALBUM. Discogs is not a reliable source and a WP:BEFORE search did not bring up anything that could help this pass the notability guidelines for albums. TheGracefulSlick (talk) 23:59, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Duffbeerforme: could you please explain what you mean by their "pedigree"? Engel's most notable group was the New Seekers, but that was after he was in Limey, and well after the New Seekers' period of chart success (he was in the band from 1978 to 1982). As far as I know, he has never appeared on a chart hit with any group during his career. Kewley is slightly more notable, having been in the Q-Tips with Paul Young, and then co-writing songs with Young and playing keyboards on his first three solo albums. But I'm not sure that's enough for him to pass WP:MUSICBIO, and again, that was after he was in Limey. Richard3120 (talk) 12:09, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Richard3120: that was a comment that it should be looked at, I hadn't had a full look. To expand on your comments. Before or after Limey is irrelevant. Kewley was notable enough to get his own entry in The Guinness encyclopedia of popular music, Colin Larkin, Guinness Pub., 1995 (reproduced here). Engel was also in (amongst others) Mandrake Paddel Steamer, also given an entry in The Guinness encyclopedia of popular music, [1] "responsible for recording one of the most cherished singles of the psychedelic era". For information this has more on Engel (but is a primary, non independent source). Regardless they still satisfy WP:MUSIC with two albums through a BIG label. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:21, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks - that looks like it'll be enough to save the group's article, still need some work to justify the album articles (see below). Richard3120 (talk) 12:43, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yep. !vote is for the band only. Unless reviews are found there is no point on keeping the album articles. Everything found so far worth covering can be in the bands article. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:08, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    • Now has source that establishes notability through WP:MUSIC#5. Coverage will exist in UK music publications of the seventies, a dead tree look is needed to find them, not a cursory google glimpse. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:21, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'll have a look in the British Library next week in copies of NME, Melody Maker and Sounds - it's a little tricky establishing when the two albums were released, but I think they were in the last quarter of 1975 and first couple of months of 1977. I don't believe it's 100% certain they would have been reviewed, but there's a good chance. Richard3120 (talk) 12:43, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Delete having an album reach "#84 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums" isn't sufficient for presumed notability.

Not a notable anime series, fails WP:GNG as unsourceable. Article is sourced entirely to a unreliable source - a website similar to Imdb. a brief WP:BEFORE has not revealed enough any reliable sources to rescue it with. Dysklyver 22:11, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A Den Jentyl Ettien Avel Dysklyver, are you intending to nominate only the list of episodes, or do you intend on nominating the series itself as well? It reads like you intend to delete the article on the series, but you've nominated the episode list. Primefac (talk) 22:30, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have not figured out how to include multiple articles in the AfD yet, but yes I am trying to do both. Dysklyver 22:36, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - "Unsourceable"? Did you search in Japanese? I easily found an entry in Daijisen (a major reference work in Japan published by Shogakukan) on the series[2], which not only describes it as an entry in the famous World Masterpiece Theater but also notes it won an award from the Agency for Cultural Affairs of the Japanese government. Since it was broadcast in 1983, there are not going to be too many articles about it on the net, but it is covered in books like this and this and in other work on Nihon Animation. The show was broadcast nationally in prime time on the Fuji TV network. Michitaro (talk) 07:30, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Already done. Primefac (talk) 12:04, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Since it won an award from a government agency that would make it pass WP:GNG. This one is going to be hard to improve upon as most sources I feel are going to be from books written on the subject. The article over at ja:wiki might have some good sources but we need someone who can read and understand Japanese like Michitaro so the article can be better improved. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 13:39, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep in view of the Japanese book sources identified above as this subject is pre-internet and the book sources are reliable sources Atlantic306 (talk) 00:18, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep there is no need for sources to be currently available online, or to be in English, to meet GNG. I have no opinion whether the episode list should be merged into the article or left on its own, but it is inherently useful to readers. Newimpartial (talk) 13:32, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge back to Story of the Alps: My Annette. If no descriptions are being planned for the episode list, then it can fit back to the main article. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 16:35, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • AngusWOOF, there were descriptions, but they were deleted as being rather horrible summaries. I'm not saying that it should be kept blank, but it's a recent change that possibly hasn't had time to receive a proper update. Primefac (talk) 16:50, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge no reason to have a separate list of episodes here. I suspect there are references for the show itself, but don't see any on other-language Wikipedia articles and can't read Japanese well enough to find them myself. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:35, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep main article, merge episode list to the main article - While the anime is old, it's notable for having won at least one award, as mentioned above. The episode list probably doesn't need to be separate, though.
  • Nom Comment I would generally go with merging the episode list with the main article and keeping it, adding some references whilst doing so would be useful. Dysklyver 15:09, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article contains no secondary sources, nor can I see any criterion from WP:NMUSIC met for this orchestra.

Bilorv(talk)(c)(e) 20:50, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep I presume that Russian-language sources exist. Most cities of this prominence in the English-speaking world have pages for their orchestras (three chosen at random include Tulsa, Leeds, Spokane), and the primary sources are sufficient for verifiability. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:43, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Was a member of a seemingly notable musical group, per WP:NOTINHERITED, that doesn't translate to him having a seperate article. He needs to make a name for himself first by passing WP:MUSICBIO before he can be deemed notable. I will provide a more comprehensive reference analysis soon. So there is basically nothing reliably independent on the subject from Google. Sorry, there is even nothing at all. So I went to the article and it is filled with 90% unreliable sources, forum sites, such as Nairaland, Gistmania, etc are used. Soundclound is even cited lol. The only two sources that meets WP:RS doesn't even cover the artiste, this and this are just announcement about something else, doesn't meet notability criteria in any way.

  • Comment My people of Wikipedia. I understand that many of the info is copied from TOME's article. My plan is to try to clean up as much data as I can to include factual original writings. But I'm pleading with you to allow me time to do so. This project may not be straight to the top, but TOME is legitimately crowdfunded, featured many involvement of anime voice over actors and is currently getting a video game adaption based on it, and people need to know the characters as well as the people who portrayed them. A lot of personal writing has also been implanted on the characters such as Rockoon, whom Mack eventually wrote for the character and Rocky was given a whole new meaning of character that was the influence of Mack's personal ideas. I agree that this is very lackluster but I'm trying my hard to make all edits as efficient. All I ask is for you guys to help me comply with it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PeanutButterMarshmallowTime (talkcontribs) 01:21, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I would suggest reducing the character list to just the main ones and then you can put it into the main article. Not every character needs to be mentioned, especially the guest ones. Please also read MOS:TVCAST and WP:NOTWIKIA. They don't need to be that detailed. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 02:43, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I guess I over-did it with the one time characters. But characters that made more than one appearance, especially those that are signifigant to the story, should have some mention; like Dijiri (Dave Smith)'s character. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PeanutButterMarshmallowTime (talkcontribs) 03:55, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Guest characters over a short story arc (2-3 episodes in a row) should not be listed either. They have to be recurring regulars or main/starring characters. Also please work on the TOME article itself in the Draft. It needs a lot of copyvio cleanup. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 07:33, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment – This is a tricky one. Every Gnews search I do comes up with stuff about other people.

  • More time - more time needs to be provided to search for reliable, in-depth sources about this chap. It appears he played for Cleator CC and probably continues to play for Cumberland by the sounds of articles such as this and this. I would query whether that is necessarily in-depth, but my thinking is that there is likely to be more coverage in the regional press which has a chance of establishing notability (certainly for players in my part of the world I would consider this likely). It is reasonable to allow more time to be provided to search for sources where a sportsman meets the sports notability guidelines - in order to show that they meet the GNG. It is a shame that the article creator did not consider searching for news sources and has instead relied upon merely statistical sources which show that the chap existed and little else. Given that it took me less than five minutes to find those above it seems odd that an article creator couldn't be bothered to do so. Perhaps that would have avoided this going to AfD entirely. Blue Square Thing (talk) 19:28, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Apart from meeting WP:NCRIC by playing two List A matches, there's coverage in various local press [8], [9], [10], including this which mentions he was the Under-21 player of the year.

  • Comment. It's no good having the sources in an External Links section. They MUST be inline citations. This is where we go wrong and why so many of these AfDs appear, per the Sri Lankan one earlier. I'm not fixing this one. Jack | talk page 21:44, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please forgive me, Jack. To what level do we add inline citations? Just match details? Bobo. 22:20, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That's a difficult one to answer, Bobo. I would say we need something at the end of the opening sentence because it's here that we are confirming the player's status at top-level. If it's feasible to include a citation after a match summary then, yes, go for that too (I did that for Dinaparna as we have the full scorecard). Nothing to forgive, btw. All the best. Jack | talk page 12:28, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
See I would have thought that the only reference needed would be the fact that this individual is a top level player. Which is what we already do by providing the external link. If we would rather this external link be a reference, so we kill two birds with one stone, that is fine. Bobo. 12:33, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
H'mmm, no. Per WP:EL and WP:CITE, information in the narrative must be verified by an inline citation while links within the EL section are actually "additional reading" only. The EL is not a citation. It's exactly like citing inline a page in Wisden for a specific piece of information and then putting the same year's Playfair annual, which doesn't say anything about the player, into EL as further reading about the season. Jack | talk page 13:51, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I understand. All it is, is just another easily fixable problem which is better sorted by cleanup tags than sending things willy-nilly to AfD just to adhere to WP:POINT. Bobo. 15:58, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I absolutely agree. I tag things all the time and I hold the world record for application of {{refimprove}}.

The fact that these people don't even consider fixing the problems themselves proves that they have no interest in attempting to improve the encyclopedia. But I see what you mean. Bobo. 19:05, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is the fourth time (I think) that an article I created has gone to AfD recently where the prose content of the article has not changed in the eight years since I created the article. Not a criticism, John, just a frustration. I added as much prose content then as I could, and nobody has added to it since. Once again this is proof that it's not us as WP:CRIC members who are at fault for this, but those who randomly turn up eight years later and declare WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Couldn't these people have done so eight years ago?! Would have avoided this mess and the others...
I would say that if an article has survived eight years without being criticized by way of an AfD, then it's probably fine as it is... (with reference to its presence on WP, not necessarily its prose content). Bobo. 11:46, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry. Meant no criticism of you (or anyone else in this). Just saying that I've now put in the very basic refs and that the earlier contributions above indicate there are at least local newspaper references that could flesh this out further. Johnlp (talk) 09:17, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I misphrased, I didn't take it that way at all. My criticism certainly wasn't directed towards you - more that I was tickled at the fact that the article has been in the same state for the last eight years and suddenly someone has rocked up and decided they don't like it. The fact that their opinion goes against basic guidelines is frankly disruptive. Bobo. 10:10, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - worth noting that this discussion is being accompanied by significant veiled personal attacks - not all directed towards me, but towards unnamed uninvolved parties - by a certain user on WT:CRIC, which are completely independent of either this article or this AfD debate. I refuse to be provoked by his behaviour, as I have been before out of my own frustration. I have learned from my mistakes. Telling me to "go jump in a lake" is frankly beyond the pale. Spike 'em claims that I am instructing him "which articles to edit" and that I am taking this "far too personally", both of which are outright lies.
Once again these complaints go beyond the sole concern pointed out on this AfD, which has no relation to either WP:GNG or WP:CRIN but WP:ONESOURCE, are therefore irrelevant to this conversation, and unprovoked by myself or @BlackJack:. Bobo. 02:25, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Meets SNG, so we presume sources exist. For me, one of two things should happen for SNG to carry - non-English subject (really non-Latin language subject) or historical subject (to me, five years; but others have said ten years or pre-Internet (about 1997)). Here we have the second. Websites don't keep content up forever. Searching for older subjects can be challenging through the Internet. Had someone raised this back in 2009, we maybe could have found the sources. Now, they are going to be very hard to find in view of the prime of 2002-3. So the presumption carries weight and we should keep. RonSigPi (talk) 00:38, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was speedy merge to History of the World Wide Web. There is clearly no desire to delete this article despite its truly terrible title -- presumably because it's a broadly plausible search term. There is already a mention of Tim Berners-Lee's work creating the CERN site in History of the World Wide Web, the redirect target proposed by the nominator and others, so I will redirect the article there. The history will still be available if an editor wishes to incorporate it at the target article. A Traintalk 22:52, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect. This article really seems to lack basic Wiki-Notability. Although it is interesting, it would be better to merge it than the keep a permastub. Given the reasonable amount of sources, it would better to move it to info.cern.ch keeping this title as a redirect.Dysklyver 20:41, 1 October 2017 (UTC) 09:38, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    • I've switched from "redirect" to "merge" above, but I still don't think this title should have an article of its own. If people think this should be an article of its own, it should be re-titled something like info.cern.ch, the name of the web site, rather than by a description. (info.cern.ch is, in fact, a redirect to History of the World Wide Web.) --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:22, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge & redirect to History of the World Wide Web per above. If the article is kept, it needs to be moved to a more encyclopedic title — there's no First car ever made article, and for good reason. I guess it's a reasonably plausible search term, though, so the redirect is worth having. A Traintalk 11:29, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Clarification, because this discussion seems to have morphed into the merge/redirect discussion that should have taken place at Talk:History of the World Wide Web, or the merge/redirect should have been WP:BOLDly performed. My "speedy keep" opinion expressed above was not on the basis that I think this should be kept as a seperate article, which I don't because this is an encyclopedia rather than the Guinness Book of Records, but simply that there was no need to go through the drama of an AfD discussion to achieve the obvious outcome. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:23, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

He has an AllMusic biography [21] and articles in Billboard [22], [23]. He's even written a song that featured on a Grammy-nominated album ("Never Let Go", from Walking By Faith by the Canton Spirituals), although admittedly, this is a more tenuous connection to notability.

Advertorially toned WP:BLP of an actor and (purported) filmmaker. This stakes his notability as an actor on a shortlived television series that doesn't have an article (although it does at least verify as having existed), and the filmmaker claims are vagued out as "working with his family's production company" while not actually specifying what his role with the company is (and therefore not necessarily making him an actual filmmaker...he could be a production accountant for all I can actually verify anywhere). And the closest there is to actual referencing for any of it is the external links: IMDb and his own self-published primary source content about his own endeavours, none of which count as notability-contributing sources at all. So I'd be willing to withdraw this if somebody with better archival access to US media than I've got can actually dig out real reliable source coverage about him and his shortlived TV show from 2003 -- but I can confirm that he hasn't stayed the subject of any recent reliable source media coverage that shows up in a Google News search: I get hits for other unrelated people named Brendan Leonard, but none for anybody I can properly verify as being this one unless we count one "where are they now" blurb on TMZ. (Not, just to clarify, that Wikipedia requires coverage of him to stay current per se — but we do require coverage of him to be shown, and can't keep a BLP just because somebody presumes that older coverage probably exists somewhere if nobody's looked for any.)

Non-notable school with nothing more than routine coverage (directory-style listings, etc.). Edgeweyes (talk) 12:25, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Request for comment: previously, all schools were presumed to be notable, I don't know whether this was an explicit policy or guideline but WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES was often cited. I believe this has now been overridden by an RfC which took place when I was on a wikibreak but I'm not sure. Could a clued-up user tell me whether this is the case please? DrStrauss talk 14:04, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It has never been the case that all schools have been considered notable. For the last 8 years or so, essentially all secondary schools with a demonstrable real physical existence have in practice been determined at AfD to be notable (a recent AfD said both that there was no consensus to merely refer to CommonOutcomes but also no consensus to change the practice of considering them notable). For the same 8 years, no primary or intermediate school of tutoring academy has been considered notable at AfD unless there were clear specific factors of notability, and very few such schools have been found to eet them.
It is my understanding that Montessori schools are usually primary or primary-intermediate, though secondary Montessori schools do exist. There is no information in this article to give the nature of this school--and there are no references to show real existence. Their web site [36] and [37] says they have high school classes, but the only evidence of this is a photo on the site of what appear to be high school students. However, I can find no sources whatsoever for the school besides their own website and social media pages, and inclusion on several list of schools. The question here is, what are our standards for real existence. DGG ( talk ) 18:55, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Probable Keep: This needs expertise from one or more Finns, however: it's a national literary prize awarded by the Eino Leino society in association with the ?semi-governmental? Finnish Book Foundation ; award is covered in Helsingin Sanomat ([38]), Turun Sanomat ([39]), and elsewhere; and the prize covers some areas that aren't covered by the Finlandia Prize (poetry, lyrics, translation, body of work...). Getting ahead of the implications that the nominator might be thinking of subsequently nominating a bunch of awardees: sourcing may be subpar, but a spot check suggests that -- ignoring the award of the Eino Leino prize -- most if not all of the authors meet WP:CREATIVE/WP:ANYBIO if WP:BEFORE is applied.~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 01:44, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: fails WP:BAND. I'm really struggling to find any coverage of this band after playing the local "Monterey Live" festival in 2009 - after this date their Facebook page has just four further posts (the last in 2012) and their Twitter feed just one. Article is the sole Wikipedia edit by "Edgarescobedo1978", which just happens to be the name and birth year of the band's lead singer. It doesn't help that the band name is so unoriginal (I've found bands named Delirio in Mexico, Argentina and Uruguay), but even if they're still active, they never appeared to have attained any notability outside of their local scene, and it's not clear whether they ever completed their debut album - recording began in 2009, but it was still ongoing by 2012 when their social media posts stopped. They're certainly nowhere near as well known as Maná or Los Enanitos Verdes, two extremely well known and successful Latin rock bands mentioned in the article text.

See film notability guidelines, which state that a film that is in principal photography is only notable if it has received notable coverage of the production.

This article has no references and so makes no claim for film notability or general notability.

Article has promotional tone. This could be dealt with, but might leave nothing. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:51, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. All the information in this article appears to be derived from a brief, promotional entertainment article only published in the last 24 hours, from my research. The film's release information seems tentative, and a great amount of relevant details common to articles on Wikipedia about films, even ones in pre-production, are lacking.

Comment SCMP, the newspaper, according to its website[43], was closely connected with Daryl Ng's father/family's Sino Group for Sino Junior Reporter Programme. All other citation were either routine coverage of his position on public organization, and/or primary source and/or Sino Group, not any of them a notable coverage of Daryl Ng himself. Being son of a billionaire and on a position of a listed company, is not qualified to notability himself. Matthew_hk tc 03:25, 18 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The SCMP citation was removed by the possibly paid editor in this edit, so the current version. None of the non-primary source (and source the not connect with Sino Group in business/sponsorship, such as OUHK and SCMP) was actually about Daryl Ng. Matthew_hk tc 03:38, 18 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaning keep I do see a lot of coverage (both trivial and not-so-trivial) in Chinese, ranging from his civil/social activities to his support for/ties with Carrie Lam to his real estate development plans.

Those coverage, was still circulate on the same tone as similar to current wikipedia article, his education, and then because of his interests in environment and his position in the company, listing out the works of the company and then claiming it is under his leadership; the in-depth coverage was on the projects but not on himself.

Is he being subjected to greater scrutiny because he is Latino? 23.82.234.36 (talk) 18:09, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Just to use one of your examples, the Forbes articles cited are not about either subject. The cited articles just briefly mention Dreamfunded. That is not sufficient to meet notability requirements, as the citation would require substantive coverage about the subject. Brian-armstrong (talk) 19:36, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
These entire articles are about Fernandez and DreamFunded: (among others)

http://www.foxnews.com/world/2016/06/28/our-american-dream-start-up-guru-manny-fernandez-connects-people-to-money.html
These national TV shows feature him prominently:

https://www.cnbc.com/make-me-a-millionaire-inventor/
He is also featured prominently in several Crowdfund Insider articles. This is an important industry publication.
And, what about the awards and recognitions he has received? These look like important awards.
Do we consider someone who has achieved significant notability within an industry? Looks like he is very well known as an expert in crowdfunding and angel investing. 23.82.234.36 (talk) 21:09, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The problem I see with these articles is that they are almost purely promotional. Wikipedia is meant to be an encyclopedia, not a means of advertising. If there are substantial, notable events regarding these subjects, they don't seem to be part of these articles. In fact, if you removed all of the promotional content from these articles you'd be left with just a few sentences. That isn't sufficient to justify having articles about these subjects.
By the way, can you specify what your relation is to these subjects, either personal or financial, if any? Brian-armstrong (talk) 03:02, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An advertorially toned page for an unremarkable private company; significant RS coverage not found. Raised $600K in funding, which strongly suggests that it's WP:TOOSOON for an encyclopedia article. Created by an account currently indef blocked for abusing multiple accounts; pls see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Professor of Art.

Additionally, I'm nominating the article on the CEO of the company. The concerns expressed above, including being created by the same blocked account, apply to this article equally:

  • Delete entirely promotional. And the CEO's page (Anna Frankowska) looks to fail notability too. Brian-armstrong (talk) 01:47, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks, I added the nomination for the CEO above. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:55, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for updating. Just to clarify, I agree with deleting both articles. Brian-armstrong (talk) 03:09, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both Nightfest and Anna Frankowska pages, per WP:PROMO (also fails WP:GNG). I do agree with WP:TOOSOON; if this app/company takes off and becomes notable, the page could easily be recreated later. Shelbystripes (talk) 16:01, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Found this article while searching through orphans. Most likely a hoax, sources are virtually nonexistent and everything else refers back to Wikipedia. It seems to have escaped attention outside of a few tagging edits. Dellavien (talk) 00:51, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, appears to be a hoax. Most of the hotels in Naumburg are not near the Saale, and none of the few that are matches the description (not to mention that the "wildly popular" ice hockey player has left no mark on Google whatsoever). —Kusma (t·c) 09:32, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above. Ordinarily a well established hotel with well-known guests would have a chance of meeting notability criteria. However, I can find zero evidence that it even exists! Sionk (talk) 09:57, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as hoax or joke. It was the first substantial edit by its author, and the only one on a hotel. It appears to be entirely made up, with no sources either present or existing. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:30, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
