No grounds whatsoever to suggest he is notable enough to warrant an article (as per WP:Notability (sports) ); has never been a professional (as currently defined by membership of the main tour; 'semi-pro' does not exist), and aside from qualifying for the Paul Hunter Classic as an amateur, has been active solely in the amateur game. If the guidelines for notability were to be satisfied here, every amateur player who has ever come through the pre-qualifying rounds - at the Paul Hunter Classic, the Gibraltar Open or any PTC event - would be deemed notable, which, put simply, is not the case. The article may well have been written by a friend of the person in question; you might like him, but that still doesn't qualify him here. He may earn a place on the main tour in the future, in which case - as things stand at the moment - he would then have an article, but until then, he shouldn't be here.

Lack of evidence of notability in English. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:59, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep As per WP:NOENG and WP:GNG, which state "Citations to non-English reliable sources are allowed on the English Wikipedia. However, because this project is in English, English-language sources are preferred over non-English ones when available and of equal quality and relevance." and "Sources do not have to be available online or written in English." respectively, there are very clear guidelines to this matter stating that an English source is - preferred yet not a MUST - to prove a subject's notability. Although there are English sources that could be added BUT they would definitely violate Wikipedia's guidelines as they promote a product of the subject. The author of this deletion discussion mentioned this concern using a WP:PROD earlier, which was "insufficient evidence in English of notability". I responded to him immediately on his Talk Page with my thoughts as they appear above; requesting further clarification on his concerns and suggested machine translation to be of any assistance. However, he has not, yet, gave an answer. Someone else, later, removed WP:PROD and immediately nominated the article for WP:SPEEDY with the "This article may meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion as an article about a real person that does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject." as a concern - although, as per WP:PROD guidelines, this is violation of the rules where the article should take its 7 days to be improved and by then can be either deleted or WP:PRODE is removed by an Administrator. Such an action had me improving the article immediately; canceling all my set plans. Hours later another Administrator declined the nomination. That Administrator, who declined the nomination, has definitely gone through the sources to verify whether WP:SPEEDY concerns are valid. If the article MUST have English evidence, would its non-English sources contradict that WP:SPEEDY concerns and pass patrolling? Which guidelines should we follow here to avoid such a waste of time?!

  • Keep WP:GNG explicitly states that sources do not have to be [...] written in English to qualify. Reliability and depth of sources look fine and have not been disputed. FourViolas (talk) 19:38, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Since nominations usually and essentially still question the notability of the subject, although the "in English" part is flawed, kindly consider the following: 1) For WP:BASIC: Sources #1, #4 through #9 satisfy being "independent sources that have coverage on the subject in addition to his work." 2) For WP:ANYBIO: Sources #1, #4 through #9 may or may not satisfy "2. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field." 3) For WP:ECONOMIST: Sources #5, #6 and #9 satisfy "2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique." 4) For WP:AUTHOR: Sources #1, through #4, #7 and #8 satisfy "The person's work (or works) (c) has won significant critical attention". NOTE: none of the listed sources is passing mentions and sources #2 and #3 are related to the publications, by authorized publishers, of the subject. Thank you. --Aaehasa (talk) 22:10, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: It's clear that the original premise (lack of English-language sources) is an invalid reason to delete, and this has shaded the entire discussion. Hopefully, people can spend the next week examining sources and evaluating notability, without regard to the language of the sources.

  • Keep This person appears to be a notable subject. After sifting through a number of the references it can be easily seen that this person is influential in Kuwait and most likely seen as an authority on economics and finances for both government and private concerns in these areas. Also, I happened upon an English language source which seems to indicate this person is also influential in the Saudi Kingdom [2].
Normally in a source such as this I would discount a quoted statement as primary sourcing and not independent. However, his thoughts takes up almost one half of the article and focuses on Saudi concerns, as well being and he is chairman of the organization. This indicates relations with the Saudis and also indicates that he is important enough to be substantially quoted. So, the subject is notable by having made, and is still making a significant impact in his field, and he may be somewhat of an innovator.
I am using common sense, and recalling some SNG notability criteria. and not just relying on GNG. I am also taking into account Wikipedia's systematic bias that does occur from time to time. Regarding the references again, I am contrasting these with other AfD biography subjects that I have come across. This person demonstrates substantial and consistent contributions that are matters of substance, based on an academic background. In comparison, there are many others in the western world who do not consistently and substantially contribute in such a manner. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 02:38, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to the subject's book, The Currency of Mount Serenity. Notability of either seems marginal, and Wikipedia clearly does not need two articles on these closely related topics. This is typical outcome for an author of just one book (which may or may not be notable, but books are generally more notable than one-time authors, so this seems like a safe bet). The article is almost entirely promotional, so a redirect is a way to go here, IMO. K.e.coffman (talk) 07:31, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment K.e.coffman 1) Don't you believe redirecting would marginalize other elements/facts brought by sources #9, #6, #5, #2, and #1? 2) Isn't redirecting the book's article to this one, instead, a better option since all sources of the book's article present in here? 3) Can you help specifying the article's element(s) or language that should be changed, improved, or removed to eliminate the "almost entirely promotional" impression – that you're raising – without affecting the essence extracted from sources? I am very up to work on – and would really appreciate – sufficient suggestions. --Aaehasa (talk) 08:31, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Removed "External links" as they may be disputed to be promotional. Thanks to K.e.coffman for raising that impression. --Aaehasa (talk) 14:42, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Since it has been confirmed that the original premise (lack of English-language sources) is an invalid reason to delete, and this has shaded the entire discussion, I will replace my previous keep vote with another thorough rationale. Following the guidelines in this evaluation:
1) It is very obvious that all the sources pass WP:PROOF and WP:GNG because they are by respected newspapers that have WP articles about them.
2) Let's see whether the subject passes WP:BASIC. In sources #1 and #4 through #9, the subject received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable (as they passed WP:PROOF and WP:GNG), intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. Although the depth of coverage is substantial – as speaking of originating new accounting techniques, or of an authored book hitting bestseller on the largest middle-east's online bookstore – multiple independent sources are already combined to demonstrate notability. I can see primary sources were used here – the author's website, another WP article about the book, which shows the book's official website, as well as sources #2, #3 for the published field-related articles on the subject's article – to support content in an article, which already has secondary sources to prove the notability of the subject. Accordingly, it is clear that the subject's passes WP:BASIC.
3) When we look at WP:ANYBIO, I cannot tell whether the subject has made a widely recognized contribution – the new accounting techniques, which had a wide publicity – that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field. However, ..
4) I can definitely tell is that these accounting techniques make the person known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique, and accordingly pass WP:ECONOMIST. Publicity of such techniques proves the reduction value of some kind of difficulties that have been talked about by the public, as of what is being said by sources.
5) It is given that this subject has published a single book as well as a series of field related articles. For a second let's forget about the new accounting techniques, does publishing a single book make someone notable? Of course not! We might argue depending on the type of book, depth, value, and theories, etc. presented. Everyone can publish a book, but a very few of them hit bestseller, and even fewer receive coverage by reliable sources. Based on that, the subject passes WP:AUTHOR because the subject's work (or works) (c) has won significant critical attention by hitting bestseller as well is getting coverage for that state.
6) The last thing to look at is the articles that are being published by Al-Qabas, Al-Jarida, and Elaph. I really do not believe such publishers would waste their ink, paper, and reputation by publishing thoughts and ideas of someone that isn't notable or recognized. I am not sure whether this makes the subject's eligible to pass WP:JOURNALIST.
In conclusion, by strictly following WP guidelines, I believe the subject is notable and the article should remain because it passes WP:PROOF, WP:GNG, WP:BASIC, WP:ECONOMIST, and WP:AUTHOR. However, WP:ANYBIO and WP:JOURNALIST can be considered too if we're lenient. Thank you. --Aaehasa (talk) 14:00, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • In fairness, it looks like he had misunderstood it to be a total eclipse when he created it.
Just curious, why not the redirect? In the event someone is looking for this specific eclipse, I'd rather have them be taken to the one Wikipedia page that discusses it. And if some other web page outside Wikipedia already links to this page, I'd rather they got something useful instead of a 404. TJRC (talk) 22:58, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@TJRC: I am unaware of any SNG for eclipses (partial or total), which means WP:GNG is the sole factor. The subject makes no claim of general notability. As the article never made any claim of notability the original author should have never created it. I am generally opposed to redirects because I have found they are easily hijacked later on. Let the reader go to the article about eclipses and find the list. A redirect is more of a liability than a utility, in my opinion. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:06, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to list article -- The only substantive comment is that an eclipse occurred (one sentence). The rest merely defines "eclipse". The NASA site cited indicates a partial eclipse only. I suspect this is all deduced from astronomical computations. If we had actual comments about it in historical sources that could provide the article with some content, it might be worth keeping it. Currently it appears to be a useless stub, which is never likely to be expanded. The fact that we would not delete the redirect at RFD does not justify it being an article, as opposed to a redirect.

  • Comment News sources publish accounts of clever teen-agers and children as a form of human interest stories. But WP is neither a newspaper nor a tabloid, and we are not obliged to include everything they include. The GNG sets forth what is needed to show something notable if the subjecect is encyclopediccontent in the first place. If , on the pother hand, it is not the sort of content that belongs in an encyclopedia , the GNG is irrelevant. The first question is whether it might belong here, and only then do we consider whether it is sufficiently notable/important/sourced. DGG ( talk ) 02:30, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

      The article notes:

      There’s serious trouble brewing up within the house of Bangalore startup Housejoy. Co-founders Arjun Kumar and Sunil Goel have allegedly quit the company, through a board executed decision leaving a professional CEO at the helm.

      Founded in 2014 by Kumar and Goel, the company has raised about USD 27 million so far from investors such as Matrix Partners and Amazon India.

      The board allegedly forced the founders Kumar and Goel to quit in November 2016 to create a single point of decision making in the hands of professional CEO Saran Chatterjee, at least three people familiar with the development told Moneycontrol.

      The company claims to service over 4,000 orders a day and competes with bigger rival UrbanClap in the home services space. The company offers doorstep services such as plumbing, carpentry, salon, beauty, electrical repairs and so on.

      Within a year of operation, the company had expanded its operations to 12 cities.

      It recently rolled back services from 7 of these 12 cities to focus on 5 of its biggest markets – Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, and Hyderabad. The startup also cut at least 50 percent of its workforce, mainly because of the roll back.

      This article provides very negative coverage ("There's serious trouble brewing up within the house of Bangalore startup Housejoy") and is clearly not a promotional source.

      The article notes:

      Housejoy has grown at breakneck pace since its launch in January this year, partnering with more than 10,000 service providers across 11 cities. That’s exciting for investors, but how does one ensure a consistent quality of service from so many partners in such a large, diverse land?

      Housejoy CEO Saran Chatterjee admitted to Tech in Asia in an interview for yesterday’s article on poor customer experience that it’s a Catch-22 situation: “The [services] market is highly unorganized. Their training is not standardized. While we have an onboarding process, we do see some problems.”

      The problem is compounded in a business that involves home visits by strangers, because there’s a looming security issue if the onboarding is not foolproof. Ask Uber about the humongous problems that arose in the on-demand cabs space in India after a convicted rapist became a driver. Housejoy is aware of the danger because it tied up with Bangalore-based background verification company BetterPlace just a couple of weeks ago. But it makes me shudder to think whether the unknown cleaners who visited my home earlier had passed any credible background checks.

      An article saying Housejoy has a "home services mess" and saying Homejoy provided a poor customer experience provides very negative coverage of the subject and is clearly not a promotional source.

      The article notes:

      Late Tuesday, Amazon made just its latest bet on India by announcing that it had led a $22 million investment round in a startup with a familiar name and purpose, Housejoy. It is the Indian version of the now defunct U.S.-based Homejoy, the on-demand house cleaning service.

      In addition, Housejoy offers in-house computer repairs, beauty treatments, bridal services, maintenance and home repairs to Indian consumers. The company had previously raised $4 million from Matrix Partners India.

      Along with Amazon (AMZN, +1.25%), new investors in Housejoy include Qualcomm, Vertex Ventures and Ru-Net technology Partners.

      The article notes:

      The joy has left Housejoy at the moment. Reportedly, the co-founders of the Bengaluru-based hyperlocal startup, Arjun Kumar and Sunil Goel have quit the company in the wake of a Board-executed decision.

      The reins of the company are now in the hands of CEO Saran Chatterjee, a former Flipster.

      ...

      Housejoy was launched in January 2015. Its services range from maintenance and home repairs to plumbing, electrical services, home cleaning, and computer repairs. Housejoy additionally offers specialised services in beauty and in-house bridal make-up. The company takes a 10%-25% cut of the service depending on the service it provides.

      ...

      The startup also had to rollback services from 7 major cities earlier this month, as per ET. The move was made in a bid to tighten operational costs and move towards profitability. The startup has also reduced its workforce by 50% and is focussing on operations in its five major markets, namely: Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad.

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

  • Keep but rename to something neutral like "Reception of the Work Capability Assessment" or "Work Capability Assessment controversy"—and balance the content accordingly. The guideline WP:CFORK has two relevant sections. The first, WP:POVFORK, specifically discourages (but does not prohibit) "Criticism of..." article titles, and encourages the use of more neutral terms like "reception" and "perception". The second, WP:SPINOFF, gives examples where the controversy about topic X can legitimately be split off from the article about X to a separate article—where all sides of the controversy can be covered. That is what is needed here. There seems to be consensus that the article Work Capability Assessment was getting too long. The controversy can and should be split off, but not in a way that prejudices the points of view covered. As WP:POVFORK notes: '(consider what would happen if a "Praise of..." article was created instead).' Also, the new article on the controversy should have a brief (and neutral) summary in the main article, as advised by WP:SPINOFF.

The above comment's sentiments are fine; the thing is, the original WCA had all that — then an attempt just to shrink the article a bit led us to where we are now.

WP:NPOV expressly allows for such cases. But it's hard to believe that a piece of 21st-century right-wing / neoliberal politics like the WCA is really in that category. Surely it has significant defenders!
There can also be cases where the criticisms of X (whether they have RS consensus or not) are directed at nearly every part or aspect of X. Even then, trying to include them piecemeal in every section of the article is likely to be distracting when the reader is trying to understand X, and splitting them off into a separate article is likely to allow for clearer exposition.
Syrenka V (talk) 20:44, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Me again. This is from WP:SPINOFF:

"Sometimes, when an article gets too long (see Wikipedia:Article size), an unduly large section of the article is made into its own highly detailed subarticle, and the handling of that subject in the main article is condensed into a brief summary section. This is completely normal Wikipedia procedure. The new subarticle is sometimes called a "spinoff" from the main article ("spinout" leads elsewhere); Wikipedia:Summary style explains the technique.

Even if the subject of the new article is controversial, this does not automatically make the new article a forbidden POV fork."

I think the IB reassessment chunk, which was pretty large, should have been spun off. Instead, this Criticism page was built from numerous fragments of the original WCA article by 'my name is not Dave' a few months ago.Dr Greg Wood (talk) 17:54, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Why not do both? By all means create the IB reassessment article. That's likely to be short enough that controversy specific to IB reassessment can fit into a section within the article. But the need for a separate, general article about the WCA controversy remains.

This sheriff doesn't quite reach the label of being notable. Being a sheriff has no inherent notability. He has been covered quite a bit [22] [23] [24] [25] in relevance to an event with a high-speed chase involving the mayor of his town, and a few mentions outside of that [26] [27], but no in-depth coverage. menaechmi (talk) 19:38, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete actually the chase involving Sheriff Watson was a slow speed chase, not a high speed chase, but that hardly changes anything at all. Wikipedia is not news, and that is what that would indicate. Wikipedia is generally not meant to be a complete directory. There are two exceptions that are fully agreed to, one is members of national legislatures, although the hope is to not just be a directory there, but we generally allow any article on a national legislature member to pass as long as it can be proved the individual was actually such. The same in theory applies to highest level sub-national legislatures, but that has not been as consistently applied. The other is that Wikipedia aims to be a gazeteer, with articles on every distinct place in the world, although if we are dealing with neighborhoods, there is some level of some notability guideline passing. Everything else, there is an expectation of some level of coverage, at least in theory. In the case of Watson, although his title is sheriff this is an outgrowth of the unique way Virginia is set up politically. In any other US state his title would be police chief, and we would ask if the police chief here is notable. I would say James Craig (police chief) is a clear case of a notable police chief, but we are comparing a city with under 100,000 to a city with well over 600,000 people. That even misses the point, Detroit is at the center of a metro-area with several million people and the largest city in Michigan. Plus Craig was appointed police chief at the height of the city going through the largest municipal bankruptcy in US history, he has outlasted a significant slew of predecessors (not hard considering how sort some were in place), and he has impacted the city in a postive way to the extent that people have put up "thankyou Chief Craig" signs. Plus, while Craig makes local news regularly because of big drugs busts, the ever present daily new murder investigation, having to field questions about corrupt cops being arrested, the green light program that is making people willing to shop at places where a murder has happened in the last year (OK, maybe my own actions are not a good indication, I once road a Detroit bus just because it was the only one of the top five crime Detroit bus routes I had not ridden). Craig however made waves back in 2014 with his call for the law abiding citizens of Detroit to arm themselves against the thugs. Criag is a go to figure in the local media. Our article on him does not even begin to give a good sense of who he is.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:51, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This should be deleted. There may be some notable memos in history, but this isn't one of them. Rather, this is a vastly overblown WP:CFORK from the article on the law firm itself, which already discusses the memo more than is due. The article relies excessively on WP:PRIMARY sources, and innuendo that the absence of actions with respect to the memo proves its significance. However, a law firm preparing witnesses for deposition is unremarkable, so this is like having an entire article on a single foul in an non-notable basketball game. It is also concerning that a substantial contributor to this article was now-indefblocked User:Classyklowngrasper, who engaged in sockpuppetry to promote a documentary criticizing litigation over asbestos exposure. bd2412 T 18:21, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

  • Comment - The 'Abraham Godwins' are well known in New Jersey, but their stories of what wars they fought in are often criss-crossed because there are so many of them with the same name and no numbers. I understand Wikipedia's policy that heritage does not denote a page but because they all have the same name they should be clearly differentiated. We shouldn't attribute any history of one Abraham Godwin to another Abraham Godwin's page because it will just cause more confusion that we don't need.

Fails WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO, and GNG. No significant coverage in any acceptable sources, only passing mentions in some sources. I am unable to verify he is the author of the books listed. They are listed on Goodreads, but that is user generated and not independent coverage. e. Worldcat does not list his books by author name [28]. Subject does not seem to be regarded as an important figure and is not widely cited by peers or successors, and has not created any significant contributions, fails WP:AUTHOR.

Also, this Wikipedia article seems to contain dubious claims that the subject "secured post graduate degrees in English literature, economics, politics, history, sociology, philosophy, commerce, Malayalam literature and public administration..." This is the first time I have heard of anyone garnering nine post graduate degrees. I am guessing the CV is designed to inflate the subject's importance.

Subject lacks WP:SIGCOV, fails WP:POLITICIAN. Possible COI.

Per WP:POLITICIAN: Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article".usernamekiran(talk) 21:28, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTADVERTISING, WP:NCONCERT and WP:TOOSOON. There's not much content here other than tour dates other than tentative information based on one WP:PRIMARY source and two sources that offer little. Compare to other tour articles. Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:14, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I have noticed that editors have changed the name of the tour at least twice since this discussion was opened. If there was enough in the way of RSes to support the name, such efforts would not be needed. The fact that the name is still being debated is further proof that the tour, or at least information about it, is not sufficiently established.

There is as much information as possible for the time being, it is suspected that more information will be revealed soon, as tickets go on sale as early as next week. I personally, do not see the sense in deleting this article. I also do not understand the use for the word "tentative" as this is confirmed information (the dates are official) by Shania Twain's own official website. I say leave the article as it will save the hassle of re-creating it down the road. - 21:35, 17 August 2017 - Pwgallant — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pwgallant (talkcontribs)

  • Redirect — I vote to redirect to Shania Twain#Tours and residency shows for the time being, until it can rightfully qualify WP:NCONCERT properly. livelikemusic talk! 03:11, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Per WP:NCONCERT, "Concert tours are probably notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources." E! News, Rolling Stone, CBC, Billboard, LA Times, plus basically every other major media source in North America. Thankyoubaby (talk) 05:18, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • So we have coverage, but the coverage present is not significant at this point. Brief discussions of plans, etc., and locations, but nothing significant. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:32, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • The significant coverage is the fact that she is going on tour, despite the fact that she said her previous tour would be her last. This is discussed in the above sources. Thankyoubaby (talk) 18:34, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        • That's not what "significant coverage" means. Please read WP:GNG to understand. Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:17, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
          • "addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content". All of those are met, you're really reaching here. Thankyoubaby (talk) 19:22, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
            • Details are who the set designer, lighting designer, costume designer and sound crew are, what the set-list is planned for, not just "she never planned to tour again and oh, boy, here she is". See her other tour articles to compare. You're really reaching here if you think the brief mentions of trivia constitute GNG. Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:30, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
              • Besides the set list, none of what you mentioned are listed on Butterfly World Tour which is rated a Good Article. Thankyoubaby (talk) 00:43, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
                • With MOS:LINKING issues and other problems, you can see why being a good article does not mean that the article follows policies, guidelines or anything other than a few requirements. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:52, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, without prejudice against recreation if and when something more substantial than this can be written and sourced. WP:NTOUR specifies what kind of content the sources need to support to justify an article about a concert tour — "show notability in terms of artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms" — and explicitly states that "sources that merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability." But all of the sourcing shown so far demonstrates the latter, not the former, and since the tour isn't slated to even start for another ten months there's no prospect of the former being shown anytime soon. For an example of what the distinction actually entails between coverage that confers notability and coverage that doesn't, ponder The Tragically Hip: most of their past concert tours don't have standalone articles, but the Man Machine Poem Tour of last year was such an extreme Special Case that it actually got the band's lead singer named as the Canadian newsmaker of the entire freaking year. Yes, over the Prime Minister. And even that article didn't actually get created until a few days after the last show of the tour, once the dust had settled and the depth and breadth of coverage could be properly assessed from a place of après le déluge recovery.

Arthistorian1977 (talk) 21:25, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose withdrawal and advocate delete. The problem with this article is that it lacks reliable sources. If Godwin was as key to General Washington's travel through New Jersey, we would have reliable, scholarly sources supporting this. This article is built on primary sources and sources that seek to build up the reputation of the individuals they commenorate, as opposed to giving balanced historical treatment. The sources here are just not the level of sourcing needed to support the claims of the article in an encyclopedia entry.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:10, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Having Captain Abraham Godwin Chapter at Sons of the American Revolution may grant passing, but the lack of sources makes me reconsider again. Gosh, this one is hard to decide. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 21:32, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

*Comment @Johnpacklambert The source of what Abraham did for George Washington was recorded by his son David in his recollections which are currently held at the library in Lambert Castle.

I'm having a hard time finding any secondary references for this. It seems to be a WP:NEO coined by an artist named Degard who has published a book related to the term, [42]. Also of concern is the use of a PR company to "Writing and working with Degard to complete 15 Wikipedia pages ready for publication there", [43]. Derek Andrews (talk) 12:46, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- Aethericism or aetherism? Devine or divine? All the references have been removed. If the author put in some effort, fine. Otherwise, it needs to go.
And more -- Of the eleven references given, (1) is a hardback book without access, even to pages 1-2; (2) ditto; (3) an hour and forty minute video; (5) journal article behind a paywall; (6) I found one citation of this journal article, but not even the journal; (7) a dangerous website.

  • aethericism has been discussed at a symposium at the royal society of art in march 17 by a dozen acclaimed academics. i have seen the footage of this event. maybe it isnt online yet.
because someone gets help from another company to write content means the piece is even better i would suspect — Preceding unsigned comment added by PainterABC (talkcontribs) 17:56, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Aethericism is the term used to describe an artistic movement initiated by Degard, which seeks to re-establish the vital relationship between Art, Science and Divinity that has been disrupted by the advance of modern scientism. As such it has an important place in Wikipedia and deserves to be developed further, showing, for example, how it is akin to the scientific understanding of 'natural inclusion', pioneered by Alan Rayner and to the theological principles of what is known as 'panentheism'. When this is done, the article will have abundant secondary references to draw upon, making it less dependent on the work of Degard herself, and enabling the reader to explore further and deeper.

The book is a book of art and costs a lot to produce and therefore sell. have you noticed how much decent artwork costs? Aethericism is a serious debate amongst hundreds of academics worldwide.

Only one of the independent references you mention even mentions Aethericism, and that states Degard will be launching a new art movement, to be called Aetheric Art, in the very near future. At best this is WP:TOOSOON, so maybe if and when this gets off the ground, this topic may have a chance of meeting WP:GNG. In the meantime, see WP:NOTSOAPBOX. Derek Andrews (talk) 00:22, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The article is a somehow "re-worked" version of what Degard writes in her self-published manifesto of 28 pages: The First Book of Aethericism (see in the book, passim, esp. section "Aethericism"). I don't see -even in the above listed links etc.- any third-party sources on Degard and her "movement". ——Chalk19 (talk) 15:04, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the sources, he might have been a notable model in the late 1990s & early 2000s. And there might have some offline/inaccessible sources about him like this one. As usual, some older online sources like this one might have been lost due to link rot. But the accessible online sources aren't sufficient to prove his notability. The page could have been redirected to somewhere as he acted in TV serials like Radhaa Ki Betiyaan Kuch Kar Dikhayengi, Jhoome Jiiya Re, and Jaane Pehchaane Se... Ye Ajnabbi. But he changed his name to Abhimaan Balhara before becoming an actor. - NitinMlk (talk) 19:01, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The notability guideline says that pilots and upfronts are not necessarily notable. It does not mention series but my inference from that is that they are notable. With approximately thirty episodes listed, I have to vote keep until a better guideline comes along. Ifnord (talk) 16:42, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Article isn't unsourced anymore. -- MovieFex (talk) 22:32, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

None of the new references represent reliable source coverage that is substantively about the show. #1 is a PR blurb on a website that just republishes PR blurbs and doesn't write its own original content; #2 is the show's own self-published press release about itself, not third-party attention; #3 is a brief blurb about one particular poet's appearance on the show, as an "also on tonight" coda to a column that's primarily about something else otherwise unrelated to either the poet or the show; #4 is a brief namecheck of the show's existence in an article about a poet, not coverage about the show. We require reliable source coverage in which the article topic is substantively the subject of the piece, not just nominal "namechecks and press releases" verification that it existed — an article is not kept just because references are present, but rather the references do still have to be measured for their reliability, their independence of the topic's own self-promotional efforts, their substantiveness, and the degree to which the article topic is their subject rather than just getting mentioned in coverage about something else, and every single source present in the article fails at least two of those four conditions.

  • Speedy keep - much as I am personally against the monarchy, a person who is in the line of succession to the throne is de facto notable. He has now been named, his name and dukedom have been made official, and the article has been moved to the relevant title, so I don't see how WP:TOOSOON can apply at this point. (To be honest, once the child was born he or she would have been notable, so I don't quite see the point of the nomination to begin with. If the naming was the problem, surely all the royal sprogs are named within a couple of days?) --bonadea contributions talk 10:10, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The child is clearly notable now, his official title has been confirmed. All other children of the Swedish royal family have their own articles. Shellwood (talk) 10:54, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I try to make something even out of articles such as this, but it's hopeless. The subject is not notable for anything but being distantly in line to the throne. That much fits into a single sentence in the articles about his parents. The subject is now 4 days old and we cannot expect him to become notable in the next two decades. He is not expected to become a monarch. He is not expected to take on any official role (let alone have one now). Take a look at what the article about his brother looks like 1 year after it was created. Nothing biographical but birth and christening. Can we be objective and reasonable for once?

User:Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi that is remarkably unthougthful !vote coming from you. Of course people in medicine sometimes mention the phrase "clinical methods". It is basically "the practice of medicine" in normal speech, and is not what whoever wrote this, is apparently trying to discuss... which appears to be some muddle-headed fringe bucket of stuff. Jytdog (talk) 17:42, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep "No evidence of notability"... Except the term gets over 14,000 Google Books hits, including, for example, this one which describes it as a specific method within psychology. It looks like there is a very large body of publications on this subject— I don't disagree that the current article is one step away from gibberish, but that has no bearing on the subject's actual notability (for which there seems to be lots of evidence, no?). (Also, Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi— what is "out pig mainspace"? Is that like Pigs in space??) KDS4444 (talk) 00:34, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
no. Those are hits referring to "medicine" which is NOT WHAT THIS GARBLE IS ABOUT. This is altmed bullshit gussied up in medicalish terminology that is so vague that braindead google searches yield "Oh!!! So many hits!! There must be something here!!!!!". Hell is other people Jytdog (talk) 00:57, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Those are hits related to the term in question and the subject of psychology. We have no other article on the clinical method, and I am not sure that this one needs to be deleted on the basis of garble. I think that the current article is meant to be about the clinical method of psychoanalysis/ psychology (as opposed to being about a city in India or a kind of fungus or an asteroid or a political movement or something). The wording is, of course, French in its style, and the translation is rough at best— that makes it a bad translation, not unremarkable as a subject. Is there some other article that covers this method to which this one should redirect? If this article is not about psychology, then what do you suppose it is meant to be about?
As alternative to the existing article, I have just put together a very brief article on the clinical method based on what I could glean from just the first page of Google Books results. It is here. I don't think stub articles are things to aim for, but the stub has two independent sources, one of them published by Elsevier Health Sciences, which is usually pretty reliable. KDS4444 (talk) 01:07, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It isn't a technical term. You seem to be reaching into mystery. There is no mystery. Only babble. The phrase is used the exact same way in medicine. It is "what the doctor does when seeing a patient". You can replace "doctor" with any of therapist, nurse, dentist, veterinarian, etc etc Jytdog (talk) 01:56, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It IS a technical term, absolutely! And maybe eventually we should have articles titled "Clinical method (psychology)" and "Clinical method (nursing)" (except that the article from the nursing book I reference is on psychology) and "Clinical method (dentistry)", inasmuch as those are actual topics in those fields. And until we need to disambiguate these different topics, we just have one article on "Clinical method", for which I have now composed what I think is an acceptable stub article from the perspective of psychology where it appears to represent an actual, notable theoretical approach and which is discussed specifically and non-trivially in multiple reliable independent verifiable secondary published sources. Even if the current version is babble-speak to most, it is apparently a real concept in psychology (at least), and not babble-speak. If you checked out some of my references (which I am guessing you have, yes?) then this should be clear. For still more evidence of this you may also have a look at this reference, this one (which does a nice job of separating it from the meaning the term has in medicine), or this one (all from just the first page of search results!). I am pretty sure the mere existence of these sources means the concept is notable, and I doubt an admin who has a look at them is going to move to delete the namespace, even if the apparent consensus in terms of !votes is against it at the moment. Hell is being told you are brain-dead and wrong by other people you respect when you are certain you are not wrong. KDS4444 (talk) 04:27, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nope. Not a technical term. If you google "clinical method medicine" or "clinical method dentist" or "clinical method nurse" you get the same kind of results that you get with psychology.Jytdog (talk) 15:13, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Is this the right forum? The band doesn't meet WP:NBAND as local/regional charts are not sufficient. They don't meet general notability requirements either: their only press coverage seems to be a local social media dispute in Vegas after they said they didn't like black people[46], which is despicable but also falls foul of WP:1EVENT.

  • Procedural Close. I agree that there might be some pretty good arguments in favor of changing how we handle draft articles at MFD, but the place to make such changes is at WT:MFD. Not only is this a non-article space page, the AFD template does not even properly link to a debate where the article being debated isn't in the mainspace. So until there's consensus for changing the process, this needs to be closed. (And if it's a G13 candidate anyway, then tag it as such and let the next admin do the necessary.)

Résumé-like WP:BLP, referenced entirely to primary sources with not a shred of reliable source coverage about her in media shown at all, about a person whose primary claim of notability is as deputy secretary to the federal cabinet of Canada (which makes her a staffer in the civil service, not a legislator.) This is not a role that gets a person over WP:NPOL, and there's no actual prospect of passing WP:GNG since it's not a role that actually gets any significant media coverage at all -- she literally gets just two hits on Google News, of which one is a press release and the other is basically a same-day rewrite of the same press release. And no, she isn't even the sole or even primary subject of that press release, but just has her existence namechecked in a list of civil servants who got new jobs that day. This is not enough media coverage to get over GNG, and nothing here entitles her to an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of enough media coverage to get over GNG.

Please read WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. For one thing, those other "similar" roles might have more reliable source coverage than Tapley has, thus clearing WP:GNG in a way that Tapley doesn't. For two, if they don't have that coverage, they might also be deletable articles that just hadn't gotten noticed by a responsible editor yet.

Vanity article with substantial contributions by a single-topic IP. Subject fails WP:NACTOR, WP:FILMMAKER and WP:MUSICBIO, as well as WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. Subject appears to have had several non-notable, extra or minor acting roles; and some dated, but minimal, local coverage related to subject's high school achievements. Subject also appears on several self-edited music websites and benefits from unrelated coverage about other individuals with the exact same name.

Delete - For the same reasons this was deleted twice before, since nothing in this new version, other than avoiding copyvio, makes it any more encyclopedic. This is a completely arbitrary list made up of fictional characters who have a net worth of anything the character's most current writer says it is. If the Batman writer says Bruce Wayne is worth $50 billion, the Iron Man writer could say Tony Stark is worth $51 billion. And Santa Claus has infinite wealth?

comment I'm not prepared to wrote a !vote rationale, but I wanted to point out that the nom is entirely misconstruing the definition of FANCRUFT that might apply in AfD. A wikipedia article about fan commentary published in reliable sources whether journalistic or scholarly, is never "fancruft" in the sense of fan-generated content that is assumed to be unencyclopaedic by nature. Once an article has made it through the eye of the (editorial) needle and to publication, it is no longer "fan-generated content" in that sense. It may, of course, be inappropriate to the encyclopaedia for other reasons. Newimpartial (talk) 16:27, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Mentioned in two non-primary RS'es in the article as it stands now, so GNG is met. The nom states that this was deleted twice before, but the first AfD resulted in no consensus. More tellingly, the complaint now is essentially one of notability, which is entirely separate from the COPYVIO reason it was deleted in AfD #2. It is clear that COPYVIO does not apply to this instantiation. Jclemens (talk) 22:07, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. If this were Wikipedia's own List of richest fictional characters, I'd concur with the nominator. However, the publication of the list is an event that gets coverage in major sources - here is Time, here's ABC (US) News, here's The Telegraph. I would be happier if the coverage discussed some impact of the existence of the list rather than it just seeming to be a cute annual tradition that generates coverage restating select portions of the list's content, but the articles do cover the history and methodology. Articles in multiple reliable sources that are focused primarily on the list indicate to me that the presence of this article is not damaging to Wikipedia --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:16, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Nat Gertler. This isn't a referendum on Forbes's methodology; I'm sure this is mostly about fun, as fictional characters have no actual wealth. But the list itself garners significant coverage. --BDD (talk) 19:09, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I've edited the article to add the references supplied by Colapeninsula and NatGertler (thanks!), and to remove the Luxist reference, which was deadlinked, and which I could not locate. I could probably have found more to add, but I don't think it's necessary at this point.
I've also added some discussion of the comparisons between reality and fiction that a couple of the sources make. This was to address NatGertler's concern about impact of the list. It says something about the world we live in when writers of fiction—even of fantasy, like Tolkien!—cannot match the real-world accumulations of some of our billionaires. If you want to make a case that the wealth of e.g. Bill Gates literally beggars the imagination, the Forbes Fictional 15 can provide you with ammunition.

  • Delete. As of right now, he isn't even a general election candidate yet, but merely a candidate in a party primary. This is not a notability claim that gets a person into an encyclopedia in and of itself, however, and nothing else here properly demonstrates that he would have been eligible for an article for any other reason. And for added bonus, this is plainly written more like a campaign brochure than an encyclopedia article. Obviously no prejudice against recreation on or after election day 2018 if he wins the seat, but he doesn't get an article just for being a candidate in the primary. Bearcat (talk) 16:16, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete winners of party nominations who receive significant coverage may be notable (but passing human interest type coverage clearly not, especially when the actual positions of the candidate are so unnoticed as to not be explored, eg Misty Snow), but candidates who have declared for a primary where final determination of who will be on the primary ballot is still 9 months away, the primary election is more than 11 months away, and the general election is 15 months in the future, are clearly not yet notable. If elected James will be notable, and he may become notable if he gets significant, sustainted, indepth coverage while running, but he clearly does not at present pass notability guidelines.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:46, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep James is a major candidate for the Republican senate nomination in Michigan. In addition to his background being worthy of a wikipedia page, he has drawn a wide swath of national media attention. He is a major candidate for a major position who has drawn national attention, so he clearly has the notability and the relevance to maintain a page. Easily meets WP:GNG. The page does however need improvements. MountMichigan (talk) 00:59, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have evidence of national attention? All the references in the article are from Michigan, and Google doesn't show much obvious.

A relatively young African-American West Point grad Army vet and businessman running as a Republican for the U.S. Senate is unusual enough that it attracted media notice, hence notability.

Article should be improved and expanded, not deleted, it is clearly both notable and distinct from the main BMP-2 article (where it merits a brief mention). UGVs are an emerging weapon system class (relatively few actual deployments as of yet and what is deployed - small scale), which sould should cover on-Wiki. Furthermore I'll note that it isn't clear (in current sources) if it is actually a BMP-2 variant, developed off it, or just resembling it - even if developed off BMP-2 - turning it into a UGV would be an extremely major modification.Icewhiz (talk) 09:02, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hillsong is not organized as parishes and dioceses, but it is a similar a hierarchical church structure. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:30, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article expresses a larger organization of the Hillsong Church and its scattered units. The affiliate has its own identity and particularity. It is growing and can be greater. The sources are reliable and the influence is already enormous. --191.8.82.64 (talk) 01:08, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • The church is located in the largest country in the southern hemisphere and already has a great influence. The unity of the Hillsong church in São Paulo is already recognized and famous. The article must be maintained because it is a unit that has its particularities and that in a short time of opening already exerts great achievements.--DavidStarIsrael7 (talk) 01:25, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • All of this recognition should be reflected in write-ups in the media, shouldn't it? The fame, should similarly be reflected in the media. Certainly someone has recognized and written about the great achievements you mention. Why can't we find this content? I tried to look for them in the Portuguese-language article, but there isn't one. There isn't a Spanish one either. Perhaps you can provide sources to show that the subject has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Walter Görlitz (talk) 08:04, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article has reliable sources, great Christian and secular media sites have already highlighted the importance and influence that the unity of the Hillsong church in São Paulo already has. Great internet portals already follow the church community, which is located in the heart of Latin America, the largest country in the southern hemisphere that has enormous relevance. --191.8.82.64 (talk) 17:54, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Articles in Portuguese and Spanish have not yet been created, but will be. But that does not justify the lack of relevance, it simply shows that someone has not yet created Wikipedia articles about the newly opened church, but highly relevant sites prove the success that the church already has. --DavidStarIsrael7 (talk) 18:04, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I believe that the article should be maintained because it is about a newly opened church that already has high relevance and influence. The article is under development and may still grow, but already has reliable sources. --177.47.238.22 (talk) 18:41, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The criteria are simple: 1) significant coverage in 2) reliable sources that are 3) independent of the subject. The sources provided are

So we have significant coverage in one source that is independent of the subject. This fails GNG as stated so many. Pretty simple really. This is TOOSOON. And I find it odd that a few minutes before DavidStarIsrael7 responds an anon from the Sao Paolo ISP called Vivo responds with a positive comment as well. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:39, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I must correct you, Walter Görlitz for your rashness and false reasoning. Almost all sources are reliable, only one source is not. --DavidStarIsrael7 (talk) 19:08, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I must correct you, for your rashness and false reasoning because each source must be all three, and while almost all sources are reliable, most of the sources are brief mentions of the place. One to two paragraphs is not usually considered significant coverage which is why most of the editors have been stating that this should be deleted.

  • Delete -- the sources listed above are not convincing for notability, being WP:SPIP or passing mentions. The page is largely WP:ADVOCACY as in:
  • "According to Hillsong Church senior pastor Brian Houston, the inauguration of the church in Brazil will be a major breakthrough!"
Wikipedia is not a free means of promotion, even for worthy causes. This content belongs on the church's web site, not here. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:28, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- the sources listed have notability. They are from great portals of influence.
  • "According to Hillsong Church senior pastor Brian Houston, the inauguration of the church in Brazil will be a major breakthrough!"
This phrase said by the pastor is not something promotional, quite the contrary, is a proof of the notability about the open church in Brazil. It shows how important the institution is. --191.8.82.64 (talk) 14:09, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- The sources are from great news and media sites of relevance.
The article has reliable sources with relevant paragraphs. The greatest secular portals in Brazil, such as UOL and G1, have already reported on the importance and influence of the church. The article needs to be kept. --DavidStarIsrael7 (talk) 14:14, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- It need to be kept.
The article is good and has reliable sources. It is still a beginner article, but it can still grow and become a great article, so one needs to give it a try and keep it. The article will grow and become a better article than it already is. --191.190.154.28 (talk) 14:45, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
