Comment This acronym is in use in the filtering field: [2], [3], and security field, e.g., [4].

Keep – Genital Jousting is also a game I had heard of (never knew it was by the same developer as Broforce, though).[7][8][9][10] Gorn has apparently also been in the news.[11][12][13]. There should be plenty of sources and the studio certainly meets WP:GNG. I think Genital Jousting and Gorn may meet the general notability guidelines as well, though I'd recommend making a draft for those first. Right now, this article can cover them, as it is still short. ~Mable (chat) 08:10, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Margaret Mercer[edit]

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

This article has had a notability tag on it since 2011, and my Google search seemed to show why: there's very little coverage of her out there. Most articles related to Margaret Mercer pertain to a philanthropist from the 19th century, a more specific search (such as her name alongside the phrase "radio", or the radio state where she worked) finds little coverage of her outside of her appointment to said radio station.

Delete A non-notable program director for a radio station.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:18, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Program directors of individual local radio stations are not handed an automatic notability freebie just for existing — to qualify for Wikipedia articles, they need to be the subject of enough reliable source coverage, in media other than their own employer's self-published content about itself and its own staff, to clear WP:GNG. But this shows no evidence of that: the "references" here are entirely primary sources, with the exception of two glancing namechecks of her existence in newspaper articles that aren't about her. This does not demonstrate notability. Bearcat (talk) 17:48, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, primarily advitorial content still. As the nominator stated, primarily a duplicated topic. John from Idegon (talk) 18:04, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue that the page is different than the DCR team page, especially after ridding it of some info more fit for the DCR page. It explains the history of 2018 partners (KVHS info) and other team background fans can't find on the DCR page. I didn't know about the Red Bull GRC connections.. That information would never be relevant when just tacked onto the DCR page as GhostOfDanGurney has proposed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SocalRacer (talk • contribs) 22:57, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

comment @SocalRacer: If you can find precedent for a co-entrant on a single car of a multi-car team warranting a duplicate article, I'm all ears. As it is, all sources point to Vasser and Sullivan being no more than a glorified sponsor for Bourdais. Not the 19 car, not the Indy one-offs, just Bourdais. No merger of teams and equipment took place, as they had sold their stuff all to Juncos Racing before the '17 500. Nothing is stopping them from moving on to Ganassi next year except maybe a multi-year contract. The history of Vasser and Sullivan can be found on the KVSH page.

Nadia Chambers[edit]

I stumbled across this article as an under-referenced BLP. I have been unable to find any mention of her on any other website, other than an IMDb page and a short filmography on the BFI website, and so I've been unable to find anything to back up most of the statements on the page.

Keep I agree with the nominator that sources are weak, but one reliable source does confirm an extensive career in TV and occasionally in leading roles. One of the issues in Wikipedia is a very significant bias towards more recent events ( and also towards first world issues) . The filmography here all predates the internet so nothing is likely to be found on web-sites. The significance of her roles and her long association with Grange Hill strongly suggest notability to me. To improve the sources a committed editor may need to trawl through newspapers of the time in a Public Library. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 19:31, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good point about recentism. However, I don't think any of the roles listed could be described as leading or particularly significant though (IMO), given the lack of any mentions in other coverage of the productions. Having a couple of very minor roles in soap operas is unlikely to qualify as inherently notable? BubbleEngineer (talk) 20:33, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

She was a regular in Grange Hill (I am old enough to remember!) but this indicates her playing a significant part in Pride and Prejudice. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 20:35, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep She did a great job in a small but important role in the BBC Pride and Prejudice, which was notable and is likely to remain so. I see no reason for Wikipedia to deprive future viewers of information about this actress. See also BFI for some of her other roles. HouseOfChange (talk) 22:03, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I did add a citation from BBC to verify her role as Anne de Bourgh in Pride and Prejudice. I see she has at least five named roles in significant productions. Therefore, she passes WP:NACTOR for "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions."

Black Kreek[edit]

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

Promotional article of non notable defunct band that doesn't meet WP:BAND nor WP:ORG completely. Made up of all non notable singers as well as non-reliable, vanity blog sources. The stub has three links given as "sources".

The first one which is craftly replicated as 6 references is www.spirit-of-metal.com/en/band/Black_Kreek. Apart from being totally unreliable fans-blog, it contains only the list of the non notable so-called singers.
The second reference www.metal-archives.com/bands/Black_Kreek/84213 which is another unreliable business listing, contains even scarcer information than above. It is also replicated six times as a reference.
The last and third source is www.numberonemusic.com/blackkreek which is worse than the all the above sources. Their about page explains who are they and their business. And curiously that blog is brought as reliable source to support notability. Ammarpad (talk) 19:07, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Commment - Both sides probably could have acted a little better here: Nominator - It's generally considered bad form to nominate articles for deletion barely an hour after an article was created. You could give them a chance, or boldly redirect it if its nowhere close. Creator - If you've got such an incomplete, unsourced article, you may want to consider writing it as a WP:DRAFT first, so things like this don't happen. Also, so far, I spotchecked the three sources currently in the article, and none of the three sources source the information, nor are they what they appear to be based on their labels - all three link to entirely different things. For example, the "RapReviews" source links to an unrelated Allmusic article, for example. Not exactly sure what's going on there. Hopefully this was an accident and not done on purpose.

Comment: I made mistakes about the sources I changed the wrong sources I would like to clarify here for you that I will never write fake things in Wikipedia I just answer the deletion article can not follow the whole rule but delete is not a good way to solve the problems. --Leonardo.G G (talk) 22:21, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

But if you think the best way is to delete the article then go ahead with deletion according to the rules of Wikipedia but in my opinion the article is prepared and well referenced and you did not find the information on Billboard about the position of the album why did not you research go ahead and you will see clear information of the subject that is written in the article. --Leonardo.G G (talk) 22:26, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I merely pointed out that none of the sources provided in the article actually verified any of the content in the article. The links given in the article weren't working correctly. (As of writing this, this is still the case.) I have not voted to delete yet, though I likely will if sourcing isn't fixed/provided. My recommendation is to now list out the sourcing here to prove it is notable. Can you provide any direct links to in-depth album reviews or official Billboard charting positions? Doing so would be your best bet for persuading people out of deletion. Sergecross73 msg me 22:42, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry if I nominated this too quickly, but I think the AfD stays open for seven days so there is time to improve the article. I did a WP:BEFORE check and couldn't find anything. looking at the main article T-Rock is rated stub class and high importance for project hip-hop — wouldn't it be better to merge and redirect? SeraphWiki (talk) 00:47, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's okay. It's more of a courtesy thing than a hard rule. Conceptually, I understand your nomination. I haven't done a search for sources, but right now there's nothing in the article that confirms notability. For example, it alludes to an Allmusic Review, but the ref given doesn't link to it, nor does his Allmusic bio seem to suggest an album review exists, as far as I can see. No promising leads in the most basic of Google searches either... Sergecross73 msg me 02:32, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,Sergecross73 msg me, I confused the sources the sources I put in the album article was not the album information but rather a rapper song than he did a part in the song. ---Leonardo.G G (talk) 18:57, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That still doesn't explain how half the refs you provided don't even contain "T-Rock" or "Throw Yo Neighborhood", but whatever. Sergecross73 msg me 19:42, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails the WP:GNG. No reliable sources found in my searches that would constitute significant coverage. None of the sources provided by the article creator were valid. Or even related. Honestly T-Rock article itself probably shouldn't exist. It had been a redirect for over a decade up until earlier this week, and it contains the same sort of falsified references this album article does, in some of my spot checking.

This is incorrect, and this sort of approach to Wikipedia will leave you with your articles deleted and your account blocked. The fact that you'd even suggest that shows how unfamiliar you are with Wikipedia policy. And no, it has nothing to do with being Brazilian. I didn't even know that you were from there.

Delete without prejudice to later recreation (and of course userfy if someone wants to work on it later). I don't think we have specific notability guidelines on "government schemes" and strictly speaking, WP:GNG is weakly met with the 3 sources provided (weakly since they are basically all secondarily reporting on one event, namely the announcement). However, we also have pretty longstanding practice that wp is not a crystal ball, and for instance festivals, concerts, albums and the like don't get an article before they actually happen. Governments around the world make announcements of intent all the time, and it's not realistic to suppose we'd want to have an article on anything announced in such a way, just because there was some immediate reporting of the announcement. So I say delete for now, but I would anticipate that if this indeed goes ahead, there will soon by substantial, lasting, coverage worthy of an article.

Delete but allow recreation later. I mostly agree with what Martinp wrote above. This is a government scheme which has not been been formally launched. Although an initial announcement has been made, there are no details as to what constitutes it. There have been many government initiatives in India and some of them such as the Aadhar, National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA)and Swaccha Bharat Abhiyan are notable. However, the notable schemes receive a lot of press coverage. This scheme seems to be simply an initial announcement with no details as to when it will be implemented. I suggest we wait till we have more reliable information. --DreamLinker (talk) 18:30, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete.

Green Banana[edit]

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

No evidence of this neologism actually existing, outside of self-citing to the WP picture itself. All sources that use the word are unreliable (ie reddit and pintrest) and simply use the exact language as is used on the description page for the WP picture. I cannot find a single RS using the term "green banana" or "Central European megalopolis". I almost have to think the original picture is a HOAX that is being perpetuated by the internet. In any case, it fails WP:NOTNEO as not being used ANYWHERE ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ^ᐐT₳LKᐬ 14:28, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: can't find any reliable sources for this at all. At best it is OR or TOOSOON. As a caveat, the related Blue Banana also struck me as highly dubious, especially since I supposedly live in it, but I did find some (pretty obscure) sources for it. I'm sure someone has used the term Green Banana but it clearly hasn't caught on in any meaningful way and this looks promotional if it isn't an outright hoax.

Delete: contrary to the editor above, I can't find very much coverage at all about this person, and what coverage there is relates to legal issues over the beat for "I Got Money", e.g. [15] [16], making it a bit of a WP:ONEVENT. None of the other songs produced by this person are notable, and there is no coverage of him or his productions beyond this legal case – the HipHopDx article is an interview and therefore primary source, and the Uproxx article is merely a repost of a video interview (another primary source) from another website, which is now dead and can't be viewed anyway, so really there's very little material out there. His "official website" now apparently redirects to a website for an entirely different company.

Request to remove notices, significant new information has come to light about Vishwa Robotics, the company is working on cutting edge robotics projects for many different US Military branches such as Air Force, Navy, DARPA, NASA etc besides the first Air Force project. ref: https://govtribe.com/vendor/vishwa-robotics-and-automation-llc-aerospace-robotics-arlington-ma From vishwarobotics.com website it seems they are not selling or promoting any products except scientific research to Pentagon so intention on Wikipedia is solely for information on advancement in fields such as robotics.

Company Vishwa Robotics has been subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable news articles that are independent of each other such as Scientific American, Popular Mechanics as shown on Wikipedia and other sites. This is a wikipedia measure of notability.Divergenes (talk) 23:29, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The only Scientific American reference I could find is this guest blog post written by Michael Lombardi - same guy who wrote the guest blog post on Vishwa for National Geographic (but fails WP:RS because it is a Blog). The Popular Mechanics article says the source is Scientific American and that article fails WP:RS. So again, nothing that meets the criteria for establishing notability.

Swiss Society of New Zealand[edit]

I cannot find enough sources to support a claim of notability for this organization. I have checked Google, GNews, and GBooks. In recognition of its age, I also checked JSTOR, Archive.org, and Papers Past (an archive of historical New Zealand newspapers) for pre-internet sources, but again found nothing.

The best I came up with was a brief mention in a book about Swiss immigration to New Zealand ([18]), but nothing else. Swiss Wikipedia doesn't have an article to poach sources from either. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 13:04, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for standing as candidates in elections they didn't win, but nothing else here is a strong claim of notability for any other reason. Literally the only source here that's about him is a self-published WP:AUTOBIO on a user-generated platform for candidates' own campaign biographies, which is not a reliable or notability-assisting source — other than that, every single reference here is either a raw table of the election results themselves, or cursory verification of tangential facts in sources that fail to even mention Spencer's name at all in conjunction with them. This is not the kind of sourcing it takes to make a person notable just because "media coverage exists", if nothing they're supporting actually passes any of our subject-specific inclusion criteria.

Oded Sharon[edit]

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

This page has multiple issues regarding WP:COI, WP:Notability and WP:Verifiability. The original author of the page is User:SoundGuy, the same username used by Oded Sharon on Twitter. This may purely be a coincidence, but I find it a more likely scenario that Sharon has created an autobiographical article. This presumably is the cause of multiple unsourced claims being present throughout the article. These include, but are not limited to, the following lines:

Oded is a Game Design mentor at the Shenkar College of Engineering and Design.
Oded holds a Bachelor of Science degree in both Physics and Computer science from Tel Aviv University, and an MBA degree from the Technion. Oded Has a Private Pilot's License, and he is an Amateur radio operator with Call sign 4X6NB, and a fireworks and Pyrotechnics detonator license.
Oded served in the Israeli Air Force.

No sources are present for these claims, thus failing basic verifiability requirements. Furthermore there are very few sources proving notability under either WP:AUTHOR, WP:BIO, or WP:GNG, something which has been noted by a previous editor and marked with {{notability|biographies}} in July of 2017.

Keep. I agree that the article is a little thin, but I believe that notability guidelines are met. I would also agree that the article would set off flags because it was clearly written by the subject. I've gone in and done some cleanup on it. For full disclosure, I am in the same industry as the article subject. I have met him at conferences, but have no other personal or business relationship. I can say from personal experience though that he is extremely notable at the conferences, as a regular speaker, because of his talents at fundraising, and also because he adds diversity to the list of speakers, being one of the few Israeli attendees. More sources to our article would definitely be helpful, and there are several more that we could use, but many are written in Hebrew, and since that is not one of my languages, I have found it difficult to add them to the article. Overall though, I believe that Oded Sharon meets and surpasses our standard for notability. --El on ka 14:34, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:SIGCOV. Although he has drawn little attention in the art world, Crumbley's realistic portraits garner a good deal of attention in the media. Profile articles about Crumbley have run in the major newspapers including St. Petersburg Times: Greg Crumbly [STATE Edition, Poiley, Joel. , 19 Sep 2003]; Sarasota Herald Tribune, IN ART, WAR'S DEAD LIVE ON: A veteran paints portraits to give to survivors of troops killed in Iraq, O'Donnell, Christopher. 21 Nov 2007 ; Sarasota Herald-Tribune: A veteran paints portraits to give to survivors of troops killed in Iraq (open source). I would say that these long profiles in major, large-circulaiton, metro daily papers carry him past WP:SIGCOV, and that they certainly do so in combination with this profile of him in his earlier career as a police officer, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: Policeman draws his No. 2 pencil to get the bad guys, Fuoco, Michael A. 05 Mar 1995. In addition there have been a great many news articles like For Love of His Country (Delgado, Angela. Tampa Tribune21 June 2008)(paywalled Proquest source), an article about a memorial ceremony for a fallen soldier where a portrait by "artist Greg Crumbly painted a "Portrait of Life," that displays the Marine in his uniform surrounded by vignettes of his life" was displayed. Also among the hits on a Proquest news archive search there are a surprising number that include him in articles about artists who are commercially successful, like this 2004 Boston Globe story: THEY'VE CARVED OUT NICHE ; ARTISTS WHOSE FOCUS IS SPORTS ARE FINDING A SELLER'S MARKET: " Sports fans, like art enthusiasts, are sometimes big collectors... best exemplified by the (Buccaneers fan) in Tampa... an art collector whose (colllection includes) 11 oil paintings of Tampa Bay players by Valrico, Fla., artist Greg Crumbly."E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:36, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No indication of notability per WP:NPOL, WP:AUTHOR, WP:BIO, or WP:GNG. I can find only passing mentions in WP:RS online for his political and community work, including foundation of a PAC, and WP:Notability is not inherited. Most notable political office claimed is a direct appointment by a state governor, and I can find no mention of this online. Much of the article was added in a few large edits by WP:SPAs, including the images. It might also be copyvio ([19], etc.) but I can't tell from the Wayback Machine whether or not the article is copyvio or there are mirrors of this article on the websites of groups he's connected with. The whole article reeks of paid editing, and most of the article is ridiculously promotional fluff. This can be fixed, but a high fluff-to-facts ratio can often be an indicator of low notability.

Keep - Fell down a rabbit hole of “financial services” companies today, and (unsurprisingly)... they were less than spectacular. Some of these have been around for god knows how long, so I’m guessing they just got Grandfathered in. LCG appears far more notable than the other financial services companies I was reading about in the same region. I noticed other editors talking about holding size indicating notability. I can’t seem to find the policy to support this. From what I can find from WP:NCORP, a company that has been publicly traded is more likely than not going to have the coverage to make it notable. I went ahead and added some coverage I found to the page that I think better shows the company’s press. I feel like if this page doesn’t meet notability, then there are a ton of other financial service companies already present on Wikipedia that can go the way of the buffalo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bruntknow4 (talk • contribs) 20:04, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NPROF, WP:AUTHOR/WP:JOURNALIST, and WP:GNG. In addition we have WP:FRINGE issues. Subject has a phd, and was a state security officer for many years. In recent years he has been a journalist in Radio Maryja (appearing on the Myśląc Ojczyzna ("thinking homeland") show) and has from ~2012 onwards published a series of soft-cover popular-audience books titled "Zakazana historia" (Forbidden History) - you can see a list of titles and descriptions: here. The books are self-described as -

The fight for historical truth is an element of the struggle for political power, also in contemporary Poland. "Whoever controls the past controls the future," remarked the British writer and thinker George Orwell. Therefore, after the war, the communists began to fight for power from censoring, burning and destroying pre-war books. This was the introduction to the story being written anew. Today nobody officially censors history. Unofficially, however, certain topics are widely recognized as taboo. And as you know, the best censorship is self-censorship. The series "Forbidden History" is an antidote to the deception of Polish history..[20]
Who controls the past, controls the present? wrote George Orwell in the famous? 1984?. This is one of the basic principles governing contemporary politics. History is the science most used for the ongoing political struggle. And so the Germans have long ago pushed the blame for the Second World War and the crimes committed in it for the mythological tribe "Nazi", which over 70 years ago wreaked havoc in Europe. Russia, however, has transformed the Soviet Union, the ally of Adolf Hitler and the co-creator of conflict in the liberator of the peoples of Europe. Western countries completely forgot the betrayal of their allies in Central and Eastern Europe (above all Poland) and leaving them (that is us) to the state of one of the cruellest totalitarian systems in the history of the world. In order not to spoil the youthfulness of existence, uncomfortable faits do not exist in Western history textbooks. Also to this day, the silent consent of the Allies to the Holocaust of Jews during the Second World War and the complete ignoring of the Polish government's appeals for help and pressure on the Germans to stop the extermination have not been explained. This is the fourteenth volume of historical articles and essays by dr Leszek Pietrzak, a former employee of the Office of State Protection, the National Security Bureau, the Institute of National Remembrance breaking the taboo of silence, around the "forbidden? and silent topics. In this collection, the text 'Europe's Thieves' is particularly noteworthy. showing that Germans did not leave illegally at World War II. And ? already from modern history? communist swindle made in the 1980s[21]

Another, already 15th position in the PENELOPA Publishing House from the series "Forbidden History" treats about the falsification of history by our neighbors, Germany and Russia. Our neighbors made history a method of conducting politics. The lies that they sell about Poland and Poles are to be a justification for their crimes, and sometimes a way to transfer responsibility for them from the executioners to victims. The text unmasking this perfidious tactic is the essay "Who falsifies history", which is a kind of ranking of European historical liars. Noteworthy is the text "The instructive history of Klaipeda", showing how manipulations and lies translate into current politics.[22]

(and similar descriptions - vary by title - on how they cover taboo or "self-censored" topics not covered by others).

which seems to illustrate the WP:FRINGE issue. While his journalist work does generate news-items and mentions (e.g. his analysis on various topics on Radio Maryja) - he himself as a topic is not covered. Pietrzak's work is mostly uncited (google scholar shows between 1-11 cites for less than 10 items that he (or someone with the same name - we did not establish via RS this is the same individual - but it probably is) published between 2000-9 (mostly from (possibly - not verified it is him) his work at Centralny Instytut Ochrony Pracy (a government labor research institute)) - his "forbidden history" series and other publications from after 2011 are not cited at all.Icewhiz (talk) 08:26, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The English-language "Leszek Pietrzak" article is a translation of the Polish Wikipedia article of the same title ("Leszek Pietrzak"). I translated it on 24 April 2018 at the request of another Wikipedian. Leszek Pietrzak was deemed a notable subject for the Polish Wikipedia; that in itself may make him of interest to English-speaking readers. Notability is not necessarily a recognition of a subject person's reliability as a source of information, or of the individual's general admirability. The English-language Wikipedia includes many individuals who have not been admirable or who have been liars, including many statesmen across history. Nihil novi (talk) 11:31, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WP:FRINGE is relevant given the self description of the books - but that is a side argument - the main thing here is that he clearly doesn't pass on enwiki SNGs (WP:NPROF or WP:JOURNALIST) and this does not seem to be a WP:GNG pass (definitely not on sources currently in the article. My WP:BEFORE doesn't come up with much that was written about him by others and that describe him - most of what comes up is items that he wrote or commented on). Notability on Polish Wikipedia may be different.Icewhiz (talk) 11:38, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Subject is undoubtedly notable as confirmed by the 20 detailed inline cites appended to his article. It is not even necessary to establish that he is a journalist or a historian, although the fact that he is one does not appear to be in dispute — it is merely sufficient that for the past two decades he has been a well known public personality whose views and writings are widely publicized in print and public media. There are about 240 entries under sub-categories of Category:Conspiracy theorists by nationality and WP:FRINGE is not a reason for exclusion — Wikipedia has numerous articles for individuals such as Gerald L. K. Smith, Father Coughlin, David Irving or the two subjects that have recently been submitted for AfD and/or RM, Richard B. Spencer and James Mason (neo-Nazi).

It should be immediately specified, however that, unlike the above-mentioned individuals, Leszek Pietrzak has not been accused of being a Holocaust denier or a hatemonger and has worked for the Institute of National Remembrance. Although Pietrzak's article is certainly referenced in much greater detail than many of the articles delineating those accused of being "fringe", this is not a case of WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Pietrzak may, in fact, be considered a mainstream historian and has not engendered dispute and/or condemnation from other historians. Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 16:39, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Subject is undoubtedly notable as confirmed by the 20 detailed inline cites appended to his article.

..16 of them have himself as the author. Are you really saying those cites somehow create notability? Your argument seems to be that because his bibliography is cited that means he is notable. And see WP:LOTSOFSOURCES. I don't know where you're getting the rest of it from, i.e, about him being a well known public personality and widely publicized. Galobtter (pingó mió) 16:51, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. An IP editor added cites to multiple "forgotten history" books written by him (that no one else cites). We are currently sourcing some bio info from an author page at a book publisher. In fact every single source here was authored by the subject or is an author profile at a publisher (and probably authored by the subject) - and they fail INDEPTH as well - so no independent sources here.Icewhiz (talk) 17:47, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Addendum - unlike notable fringe authors (or notable historians) - it seems no RS has bothered to cover this subject in an independent manner - and it seems mainstream historians simply ignore him (as is evident by lack of citations to his books).Icewhiz (talk) 19:44, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Subject's claim to notability is as a scholar/journalist writing in Polish. Notable Polish-language scholars and journalists are, of course, widely cited in other languages including German and English, but my searches of JSTOR and gBooks turn up almost no citations of this writer. Fails WP:AUTHOR, WP:PROFESSOR, and WP:JOURNALIST. Searching for media coverage, I did find a mention of him at BBC Monitoring (A BBC service that translates foreign-language news articles into English) but it merely quotes him as "Leszek Pietrzak from the IPN". (Institute of National Remembrance" [23]. I see no indication of or support for notability in any of my searches. What I do have is a suspicion that the creation of this article may be an effort to "win" talk page arguments on highly-contested topics encountering a strong revisionist push by some Polish writers, I refer to pages including "Polish death camp" controversy, Jan Grabowski (historian), Jedwabne pogrom, and similar, on the premise that bluelinking the source lends strength to the argument.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:32, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I'm not familiar with the subject of the article, but I'm in favor of keeping per MyMoloboaccount. I think attempting to reject this article based solely on the subject's apparent lack of notability in English-language sources sets a poor precedent indeed. I've seen a similar non-notability argument used for deleting an article whose subject was primarily cited in Afrikaans-language works. It's never been convincing, and it's never sat well with me. The fact that the man's personal views border on fringe is irrelevant for a keep/delete discussion and do not affect his notability. --Katangais (talk) 02:11, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Katangais, NO ONE has argued that this be deleted for "lacking English Sources". Yours is a strawman argument. I and others have pointed out that it is highly unusual to find a notable scholar writing on the era of the Second World War who is not cited in the scholarly literature; scholars and sources in Polish are routinely cited in the scholarly literature in other languages. Pietrzak and his books are not. This is a strong indication that notability as a scholar is lacking.E.M.Gregory (talk)

@Katangais: - we are lacking Polish sources (or any language sources) - looking at the article you might be confused by the apparant citations (currently 28) - however they are 22 citations of his own work (including some 16 "Zakazana historia" titles - fringe aspect pointed out above), a short mention in this news item, himself speaking on Radio Maryja, one line mentioning him on something he collaborated with, Author profile at XLM (probably self-authored) - a book shop or publisher, Author page at Wprost (seems he contributed to 2 pieces) - one sentence of out of date (by a decade!) bio information, copy of his description at publishing house / book jacket in a BLOG (not RS) - again probably self-authored). At the moment - we don't have a single source here that someone else wrote in a RS - nor anything in-depth - the article is essentially built off of what appears on a book jacket.Icewhiz (talk) 06:39, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I see no prima facie reason to consider Leszek Pietrzak's writings less reliable than some sources cited in the article on Jan Grabowski by Icewhiz, such as Haaretz, The Forward, The Times of Israel, or the Jerusalem Post. Instead of "poisoning the well", we should critically evaluate the waters provided by all sources. Nihil novi (talk) 01:23, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WP:OSE - Not a valid afd rationale. It is not even a decent OSE arguement as Grabowski would easily pass on GNG due to SIGCOV and on a few of the PROF SNG's criteria. As for using Pietrzak's soft cover (or newspaper) writings as a source on wiki - we would need some indication they are considered reliable - which the publisher, Pietrzak's academic position (rather lack thereof), and the lack of anyone citing these works (in an academic setting) - would seem to indicate a big no (but this is a totally separate issue from wiki notability - we use non-notable people publishing in reputable peer reviewed journals).Icewhiz (talk) 06:24, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In November 2017, I withdrew my original deletion request for this article due to @Jclemens having found two sources which, according to @Gpc62, were sufficient to write an article off and close the AfD. I went with the recommendation and rewrote the article by watching the movie myself. However, upon reviewing the two sourcess that led to the closure of the AfD, I found that both only featured Imaginaria as a side-liner, none of them went into detail in any way.

Delete Fails WP:SIGCOV - there has been neither widespread nor in-depth coverage of this alleged "controversy" either when it occurred during fighting in Ramallah in the Second Intifada or since. All that has ever existed is a brief report in AFP: Porn upsets Palestinians, "irate residents... have told AFP." "The Israeli military denied that it had anything to do with the pornographic programming and instead blamed the Palestinian leaders." And a 2-sentence report in the New York Times: "Palestinians accused Israeli forces..." "The Israeli Army said soldiers interrupted the station's broadcasting but had not substituted pornography for the usual programming." The mere handful of subsequent "reports" merely echo the original AFP claim that local residents claimed that this occurred. But little notice has been taken since, none INDEPTH and some misleadingly cited. For example, one mention is cited in a collection of essays edited by Philip Seib, but the allegation ought to be cited to the even less notable author of the essay in question, Orayb Aref Najjar. A source that throws real light on this AfD is "Lies and Disinformation as a Palestinian Weapon", published by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA,) two weeks after this alleged event; the MFA enumerates 14 alleged occurrences in the same disturbance, describing them, including this one, as "a few examples of fabrications disseminated by the Palestinians." This certainly fails WP:EVENT, and, given that we have only allegations made during a moment of violent unrest - and no evidence that it became a "controversy" - it should not be on Wikipedia at all.E.M.Gregory (talk) 11:51, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"A source that throws real light on this AfD is "Lies and Disinformation as a Palestinian Weapon", published by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA,)"

.... I'm sorry, but this sentence betrays a clear bias. What you're saying is, we're supposed to discount the mainstream media reports, discount what the Palestinian residents have said and discount what the U.S. government have said about this incident and just sweep it under the carpet because we have the IDF's word for it? (a report which, I might add, is included within the article as well, so that all sides, including the Israelis, have their viewpoint on the controversy clearly stated). Sounds like WP:IDONTLIKEIT.

Consulate and the subsquent Israeli official response to the case.

Not only is the article covering a notable incident from the Second Intifada (it has some 23,000+ hits on Google for example), but it is also a notable incident in the history of pornography, due to its use in warfare (if the information was just on the Second Intifada article, it would miss this broader significance, relating to pornography in general, waranting a stand alone article).

Delete for now. I suspect WP:TOOSOON. If you remove their own sites, places who have bought their software, social media sites, basic directory listings, and job vacancy sites, then there is virtually nothing at all left in a google search. However they do appear to have possibly sold their software to a lot of organisations - I have not checked the veracity and independence of these mentions, but if they hold up it is likely that the subject might become notable in the future if the subject keeps on its current trajectory. Critically if the subject was notable (ie had some notable substance) there would a couple or more of non trivial paragraphs about what the company actually does, but there is only sort of one short sentence at the end of the article - could just be a poor article failing to state the obvious ?

Do note that the page creater started this page by stating "I have forgotten my login details from my SapioTalks account and am trying to publish this article through here now.

It is comparable to SOUA by US Presidents. But PM usually quote examples and many. Of the 12 plus years, almost 200 plus individuals and apps have been quoted. (I am a Singaporean who watches the NDR yearly). If we will do articles based on NDR, we need much more and some are just a mention of an technology. I don't think this is very credible.

Keep -- Despite nom's unsupported claims about GNG, it's clear that this subject meets it. Just for instance, look at:
- Perla Lichi Design Opens New Office in Mumbai, India - India Retail News October 15, 2013
- International designer emphasizes classic lines - Times Colonist (Victoria, British Columbia) September 7, 2013
- WHERE THE PROS LIVE - Palm Beach Post (Florida) June 16, 2007
- Be It Ever So Humble, Really - The New York Times February 2, 2012

The last item is a review of a picture book of her designs, and it's in the NYT. As I said, a clear-cut pass of GNG. The nom seems more concerned with the tone of the article which, of course, is a matter for ordinary editing, not for deletion. 192.160.216.52 (talk) 13:49, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Per the coverage turned up with previous votes. My translation software for the CNN Indonesia site reveals the piece to be independent and non-trivial. While the NPR one is an interview, being on All Things Considered is significant. The Express Tribune piece is a bit weak, but it is coverage in a notable source nonetheless, and added to the other two makes it enough to convince me the subject is notable.

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

Seems to be a forked article with no proper description of the composition in the main body and no reliable secondary sources devoted to the composition. It is mostly copy-pasted with some modifications from An Wasserflüssen Babylon. Might be reasonable to write a proper self-standing article, but that has not happened so far. Mathsci (talk) 13:15, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect and userfy. It is reasonable that an article on this topic be written as a stand-alone article but so far no substantial content has been written on the main body, i.e. the organ composition by Johann Adam Reincken. Forked content copy-pasted from An Wasserflüssen Babylon has been written, with sources copied from that article. There are also some reliable secondary sources not included, almost all originating from the musicologist Ulf Grapenthin. For that reason I recommend that the content be userfied until some kind of readable content be created. I do not see any reason to merge An Wasserflüssen Babylon, since one longish sentence suffices to describe Reincken's composition (and the section from the main body).

Keep and procedural close of this AfD:

Reasons for "Keep" were already explained at Talk:An Wasserflüssen Babylon (Reincken)#Split from article on Dachstein's "An Wasserflüssen Babylon" hymn.
Reasons for "procedural close of this AfD": AfD is not the correct process to request a "redirect and userfy" as the OP did, merge and split proposal tags + talk page discussion are. The OP has removed the split proposal tag *which contained a link to the relevant talk page discussion (see previous point)* at least half a dozen times (four times in the last 24h), without even once commenting on the talk page where the "redirect and userfy" discussion should have taken place in the first place. So, at this point the split from the "An Wasserflüssen Babylon" hymn article is uncontested per the regular procedure, and I don't see why I should be talking to myself in the Talk:An Wasserflüssen Babylon (Reincken)#Split from article on Dachstein's "An Wasserflüssen Babylon" hymn talk page section if everyone who commented there agrees the topic merits an article in its own right. This AfD is just a spurious excuse to skip regular procedure, i.e. talk page discussion if the OP proposes a "redirect and userfy". --Francis Schonken (talk) 16:20, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For clarity, I oppose the "redirect and userfy" idea: there's no reason for that, for the reasons explained at Talk:An Wasserflüssen Babylon (Reincken)#Split from article on Dachstein's "An Wasserflüssen Babylon" hymn and in this edit summary. --Francis Schonken (talk) 16:26, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The edits on "music" ("musical analysis"?) come directly from the score (IMSLP?). They constitute original research and synthesis. The book of Pieter Dirksen on Heinrich Scheidemann has been briefly mentioned en passant but there are no properly sourced edits on the composition of Johann Adam Reincken (so far). AfD's are decided by consensus amongst interested users. Mathsci (talk) 01:55, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Supplementary comment. I am due to acquire two lengthy prefaces in English on the complete organ works of Reincken. They are edited by Klaus Beckmann (Schott Music, 2004) and Pieter Dirksen (Breitkopf & Härtel, 2005). As far as I am aware, these English versions are not available on-line (the ISBN references are available). These seem to be amongst the best sources for the current proposed article. They have not so far been used. The same applies to material from Grove Music Online (Oxford University Press), which so far has not been used. That includes valuable content related to the chorale prelude on the stylus fantasticus, Reincken's musical influence on the Hamburg opera and the collegium musicum. Again I do not see any way the main article An Wasserflüssen Babylon could be merged in a meaningful way. Mathsci (talk) 08:30, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – Since the AfD listing was initated:
- Nine additional sources
- Content expanded & referenced
- Images, music examples etc.

IMHO this AfD is as moot as can be. --Francis Schonken (talk) 22:57, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

More refs added, and in the mean while another editor (Rathfelder) de-stubbed the article, again suggesting there is no reason to keep this AfD discussion going for no relevant reason whatsoever. --Francis Schonken (talk) 14:25, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Technical comments. Multiple images have been appropriated from the main article without attribution: see e.g.file1 and file2. There are multiple lilypond coding errors in images (<score vorbis="1"> instead of <score>). One of the main sources, "Bach: The Learned Musician" by Christoph Wolff (2000), has been superseded by 2005 research: the article does not take that into account. Stinson's sourced content on BWV 653 has been shuffled randomly, including into different sections: it is unrecognizable and misleading in the new context. Userfying still seems to be the only option. Mathsci (talk) 03:59, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have no opinion about the merits of this article, but it is clearly not a stub. Stub is primarily a measure of quantity, not quality. Rathfelder (talk) 17:31, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Subsidiary comments. On 14 April 2018, I received soft back copies of Reincken's complete organ works, edited by Pieter Dirksen (Breitkopf, 2005) and Klaus Beckmann (Schott, 2008, 2nd edition). Both have a long commentary in English: when that exists, there is no reason to use a German version. Both versions are playable on the organ and the baroque registration is carefully described. (Schott's is in a more standard format for organists, i.e. A4 R.) It is almost impossible to reconcile the English prose commentary of Dirksen and Beckmann with the fork article. A general wikipedia reader would be able to read the prose commentary without problem; but the fork article is inpenetrable, almost as if unrelated to the baroque organ. Both editors give a biographical account of Reincken, including the relationship with Scheidemann and Buxtehude: the fork does not provide any proper context and seems to have been created by cherry-picking sentences. Both of the editors give detailed footnotes (citations), none of which have been included in the fork article. The sources, history and transmission of the works are described in detail by Beckmann, but that appears to be too technical for inclusion on wikipedia. Authenticity is only discussed for the fugue and toccata. There is a discussion on ornamentation, which, according to Beckmann, is already so carefully worked out in Reincken's transmitted sources, that any further ornamentation should only be used sparingly. The historical organ played by Reincken in Hamburg is described in detail by both editors. The reception describes the typical prejudices of late 19th-century commentators such as August Gottfried Ritter, who gives a withering account of Reincken's fantasia, "His frequently and respectfully mentioned work does not contain a trace of the elegaic melancholy of the chorale [...] one lays down this piece of work [...] this fruit of great efforts, with a feeling of disappointment and uneasiness." Beckmann gives facsimiles for the chorale in tablature notation and at the beginning of Altnickol's stave version. On Page 83 Dirksen gives what he calls a tabulated description of the chorale: it contains 10 lines, giving the bar numbers and the German text. The description in the forked article seems barely related to Dirksen's commentary. All of Dirksen's footnotes have been omitted in the fork. The registration of the chorale is explained by both editors with "O" used as Oberwerk and "R" as Rückpositif: no description of that has been given. The attempt to convert Dirksen's prose into some kind of list format, particularly in the attempted "musical analysis," has not been successful. Userfying seems like the only reasonable option. I still cannot see what could be merged from the original article. Mathsci (talk) 07:02, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Wikipedia articles are summaries, not a complete rendering of the entire content of a source. E.g. a detailed description of the organ would, in Wikipedia's surroundings, be more appropriate at St. Catherine's Church, Hamburg#Organ (or in a separate article about the organ) than in the An Wasserflüssen Babylon (Reincken) article. Most of the content mentioned above is duly summarized, e.g. August Gottfried Ritter's rejection of the piece is mentioned in the reception section of the article (etc). Of course none of this is necessarily a final version of the article, but as written it is adequate and appropriate for Wikipedia's mainspace. --Francis Schonken (talk) 07:56, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In this case, the cumulative edits of User:Francis Schonken are either (1) appropriated without proper attribution or (b) constitute original research and synthesis (so not in "the voice of wikipedia"). The attempt at "musical analysis" seems to be some kind of parody. Having examined most of the documents (including in the Anderson Room of the University Library, Cambridge), my impression is that these edits have not been made with access to the main reliable secondary sources and thus cannot be verified. One four-page German extract has appeared (essentially by happenstance), but so far that is all. Without the English versions, the fork article seems misleading and confing to general wikipedia readers. Mathsci (talk) 10:11, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Nothing has been "appropriated without proper attribution" (where do you get that? – please explain); There is no "original research and synthesis" (everything is duly referenced to reliable sources – not even the minutest detail has been demonstrated thus far as being OR ofr SYNTH). There is nothing "misleading and confing to general wikipedia readers" – on the contrary, I'm not the one advocating the article would be rewritten for performing organists, it is written for a general readership. --Francis Schonken (talk) 10:27, 17 April 2018 (UTC); typo correction 10:43, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
A complete objective assessment has been given as requested. In my case, I paid 50 pounds for two scores: in addition to having the English versions, I had the pleasure of sight-reading the chorale on a 1705 baroque organ. Mathsci (talk) 10:35, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- re. "A complete objective assessment has been given" – incorrect. --Francis Schonken (talk) 10:42, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

David Ditsworth[edit]

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

Outrageously promotional article for a surgeon in its original version [31]. I removed the worst of it. ,including "The proprietary technology and techniques for performing the ultra-small version of what is called "minimally invasive spine surgery" were developed at Back Institute, by Ditsworth and are only available through that organization."

However, I do not think he is even notable. Google Scholar shows only 1 paperwith more than a very few references. It has 129 citations, but in the very highly cited field of medicine, that single paper alone is not enough to prove notability as an expert. Everything else there is mere conference presentations and press releases.

I think this is very likely to be undeclared paid editing. The contributor wrote the draft, and then rewrote it in mainspace,, without knowing enough to remove the draft. The previous editing history is a blatant attempt to obtain confirmed status through minor edits.. DGG ( talk ) 04:37, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

First, I want to thank DGG for helping to improve my article. I am a novice with Wikipedia and I am still building "the house". I would ask that my article not be deleted for the following reasons: WP:DEMOLISH and WP: CHANCE. I am still researching and working on the article about David Ditsworth, and I am researching and preparing articles about other surgeons, as well. Dr. Ditsworth appears quite notable with more than 40 peer reviewed and accepted publications, and also as a medical equipment inventor and creator of unique surgery centers. Please see WP: INHERENT and WP:INN. Twice, I have observed Dr. Ditsworth in the operating room and had to sign a non-disclosure paper about the proprietary equipment used there. I am not paid for writing on Wikipedia, and not connected to Dr. Ditsworth; but I am impressed with the work done by him. Dr. David Ditsworth's name is well known in the field of spine surgery, by surgeons and equipment makers.

Regarding notability criteria: he has made "widely recognized contributions that are part of the enduring historical record in his specific field." Also, he is known for "originating a significant new concept". I will try to make the article better and to meet all Wikipedia policies. Any comments would be appreciated. Thank you.

Very Weak Keep It appears that under a bare-bones minimum view of 'has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times.' As an Oscar is a significant reward, and two can can be construed as the minimum of several, this is literally the bottom of the barrel for notability in the film industry.

Candidate for office, her only coverage is pretty routine, even if she is running in a "special election" page still fails WP:N. If she wins the special election then the article can be kept/recreated. Most of the sources are just WP:ROUTINE local coverage of the type and volume that's expected of a congressional candidate.

Delete. As yet unelected candidates for office do not automatically get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates per se. She needs to win the election, not just run in it, to be considered notable as a politician, and otherwise needs to already have been notable enough for a Wikipedia article for some other reason besides her candidacy. The claim on the talk page, further, is that she is notable because she "has received national media coverage", but a candidate does not magically clear that bar the moment one piece of more than local coverage exists. It takes a volume of nationalized coverage that's approaching Christine O'Donnell proportions — O'Donnell got so much national coverage that her article is actually twice as long as, and cites three times as many distinct sources as, the article about the actual senator who defeated her — to make a candidate a special case over and above most other candidates. Just one piece of nationalized coverage is not enough in and of itself. Bearcat (talk) 05:43, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ Comment - Vote the same but below Wikipedia needs to learn that we don't have firm rules about elections and that our guide post is WP:N. Do more sources need to be added? Certainly. But a quick search of news (you can do it at the top of the page), lists national RS after RS. These are different times because these elections are happening in the context of Donald Trump. Special elections are seen in this national context. That is the reality of all these special elections, from Jon Ossoff to Conor Lamb.Casprings (talk) 22:22, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- GNG does not appear to be met here. Much of the coverage where her name is mentioned are passing mentions, or about her campaign, or the general political environment. There's very little about her, and none of it appears likely to be WP:SUSTAINED. Unless she wins. Mentioning Ossoff and Lamb is an WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument.

Keep Winning a congressional seat may make a person immediately notable but not yet winning or even losing does not make a person automatically not notable. Notability is completely based on whether the person has been significantly noted in several reliable sources with regional and national audience. Tipirneni has been noted in such sources with significant detail and frequency. She is notable whether or not she wins the election on April 24th. Keep, no matter what happens next week. ---Coffeeandcrumbs 03:03, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User:Muboshgu explains it well above. Yes her name has been mentioned in non-local media outlets, but its entirely about her campaign in this "special" but Routine election. Jon Ossoff is the standard on when elections candidates become notable and this article does not meet that. ErieSwiftByrd (talk) 06:51, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@ErieSwiftByrd and Muboshgu: I disagree. I ask you to look at the many national media sources I have added to the article. Also remember that she is headed to a close loss and, unlike Jon Ossoff, she will be running in the regular election in November. A marginal loss in a Republican controlled district will likely garner continued coverage in the media. I predict that even if we redirect this page, we will likely go back to the current version of the article very soon.---Coffeeandcrumbs 23:53, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Like what? The Fox News factoid piece? That is about her, but all of the other ones are about the race, not about Tipirneni. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:08, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What about The New Republic article? That seems more than routine.---Coffeeandcrumbs 02:33, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Arizona's 8th congressional district special election, 2018. We have generally treated the campaign as notable, but not necessarily the candidates in the election (even with candidates running for a U.S. House seat in a special election), because the coverage of the candidate is within the context of one event (in this case, an electoral contest). The reason for this is that candidates, even major party nominees running for Congress in the United States, regularly (if not often) fade back into obscurity and generally are low-profile individuals. Any relevant details about a candidate can live on the page for the election, including major biographical pieces as well as major campaign themes (reliably sourced). That all said, it is not advisable to start an AfD within a week (or two) of an election. It can be interpreted as unnecessary interference in the electoral process and votes may change if a subject wins their election. --Enos733 (talk) 05:53, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Reuping my keep vote from above. Again, people (and the events they take part in), need to be seen in context. Normally, we wouldn't keep bios from people who loss elections for US congress. I understand that. However, this should be seen in the context of what is happening in US politics. Right now, these special elections are seen by WP:RS as highly significant because they are seen by WP:RS as a key indicator for the political environment under President Trump. Moreover, these events are significant enough, the people involved in them are WP:N, even if they lose. A simple question to ask is this. In WP:10Y, would someone who wants to study this period want these bios or not? We are here to be useful, now and in the future, and not to hold to some firm rules.Casprings (talk) 10:47, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Agree with Casprings. The alternatives are worse. Wikipedia's election articles have been limited to horse-race information for many years now. Candidates, (viable or not) are only allowed a link to their own campaign website, a list of endorsements (if any), and a few words describing themselves (e.g., physician, former state senator, businessman, physicist). Therefore, those recommending Merge are being misleading as this article's information will not be moved, but will disappear. That is a fact. Those recommending Redirect or Delete are actually recommending the only information available to Wikipedia's readers should be a candidate's own campaign website, UNLESS that candidate is already an incumbent of a political office (or perhaps a reality TV star). I don't believe that view properly reflects the mission of Wikipedia. People rely on Wikipedia for reliable information. I don't believe write-ins and no-hopers (for example, those polling in the single digits with no money and no serious third-party coverage) should have their own articles, but that is not the situation here. Congress is, arguably, more important than any video game yet an imaginary character is deemed notable but someone who could plausibly impact the future of over 350 million people in the U.S. alone is not? Wikipedia has better goals and priorities than that, and Wikipedians must live up to that. 174.197.11.200 (talk) 16:57, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

People rely on Wikipedia for information about topics that pass the ten-year test for enduring significance, not topics that are temporarily newsy. The test a person has to pass to qualify for an article is not just "does some media coverage exist?", but "does some media coverage exist in a context that makes her a person readers will still be looking for information about in 10, 20 or 50 years?". Officeholders clear that test, while candidates normally do not — every candidate in every election always generates some media coverage in that context, so just having some campaign coverage is not enough in and of itself to deem a candidate as passing GNG and therefore exempted from having to pass NPOL. If she does not already have preexisting notability for other reasons, then the test that a candidate has to pass to get included in Wikipedia because candidate is not "does some media coverage exist?", because some media coverage never, ever doesn't exist for any candidate — the test she has to pass is "does enough media coverage exist to deem her a special case over and above every other candidate in every other election", and the sourcing here is not demonstrating that Hiral Tiperneni passes that standard. Bearcat (talk) 18:37, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: the subject meets WP:GNG, so WP:NPOL is not that applicable. There are profiles covering her life and career; this is not routine coverage. I.e.: Who is Hiral Tipirneni? What to know about the Arizona congressional candidate, Fox News, etc. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:22, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect/Merge to Arizona's 8th congressional district special election, 2018. Those arguing to keep have failed to demonstrate that this is not a case of WP:BLP1E / WP:BIO1E. Yes, much has been written about her but all of it, as far as I can tell, because of her running in this one election. Our policies and guidelines advise against creating stand-alone articles for living people who have not been notable outside a single event (election) and instead, per WP:ATD, the information should be merged to the article about the election. If and when she runs again or does something else noteworthy, the article can be recreated. Regards So Why 11:25, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

She is running again. Why take the page down if she already meets the standard you mention in your last sentence.Casprings (talk) 14:20, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's not what the sources say. Citing the AP source here: "She said Tuesday night that she plans to run in November's general election and told supporters not to give up the cause." (emphasis added). Plans change. Plus, this coverage is again only related to the same event, i.e. the election she just lost. It's not coverage of the new election or her as a candidate in the next election but as the candidate of the losing election. Regards So Why 15:10, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Actors are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they exist — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:ACTORBIO. The article claims the subject has acted in two films (one of which is not notable by WP standards). The page further state she acted in some TV dramas but apparently major role in only one drama. Given all this, I think she fails WP:ACTORBIO

Band is possibly non-notable. Did a quick google search with the name of the band as keyword, first pops up an unrelated album. Searching "Steve Cullins" with the name of band and still nothing relevant shows up, so unable to find a reliable source to prove its existence and notability. I would also like to mention that the author created a page called "1936 Lagos UFO incident", and I was unable to find any related information online and I did tag that page as G3-hoax.

Delete. Completely unreferenced article about a band, whose strongest claim to potential WP:NMUSIC notability (a platinum album) is plainly verifiable as false due to the lack of an entry in the CRIA's easily consulted database of record certifications. This is exactly why I always point out that NMUSIC notability is not conferred by what an article says, but by how well it references what it says: people can and do lie in Wikipedia articles about notability claims the topic doesn't actually have in reality.

Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for standing as election candidates — he has to win the election, not just run in it, to clear WP:NPOL as a politician, and otherwise he qualifies for an article only if he can be properly demonstrated and reliably sourced as having preexisting notability for some other reason besides the candidacy itself. But nothing else, either in the article or in the IP's misplaced talk page comment, passes a notability criterion at all. The only two properly footnoted references in the article were both WP:CIRCULAR citations to other Wikipedia articles, which I've stripped because we're not allowed to do that — and the remaining "external links" are not notability-supporting references either, but primary sources.

Delete. the only claims to notability are the celebrity name-drops, but notability is WP:NOTINHERITED.

Neiltonks (talk) 13:03, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I understand how she may not seem the most notable, but according to WP:INHERITED, she is notable. She is associated with several popular celebrities and has worked with them as well. You can say that the page needs improvement, but i don't think nominating it for deletion makes too much sense. That would mean several TV show hosts that have their own shows are not notable. That's like saying Rhett and Link aren't notable or weren't notable when their page was created. She is especially popular in the fashion industry, and you can see that with her instagram (28.1k followers). This is my first time that i've tried to create a page but i'm positive that she is notable. she's also had Aly Raisman on her podcast along with other celebrities like Paris Hilton.

Okay, wow. Number 1, there's no need to curse. Moving on...It's not that Jordan Duffy is just "associated" with the celebrities. She has worked with them.

There's still much more that I can add to it but just haven't gotten around to do it. Isn't wikipedia supposed to be a collaborative platform? How is she not notable? I just don't see it. The way you guys are thinking, especially User:Davey2010, it seems like you're just against her having a wikipedia page..?? Like, what? With User:Davey2010's logic, Kim Kardashian would never have a page. Her dating Rob Gronkowski is a fact that is backed with good sources.

Delete - zero indications of notability per WP:GNG or WP:ENT. Working with somebody is equal to being associated with them, in Wikipedia parlance, and it does not count towards notability. Being someone's "date" is even more of a non-thing as far as notability goes - Wikipedia is not a gossip magazine and absolutely cannot start listing romance rumours because that list would never end.

Her claim of notability is as a muse, similar to Lou Andreas-Salomé and to Alma Mahler, who were also artists, but whose most notable aspect is as muses. She lived to 95, not to 106 (there was an earlier typo in the date of birth). I read the references to be about her personally, not her husbands, although it is about her in relation to her famous husbands.In particular, the chapter about her in "Russian Silhouettes" (where she is the seventh of the "Russian Silhouettes") almost hardly talks about Capablanca at all, except as a canvas on which to tell a story about Olga. I claim notability based on her having been written about in the linked sources (including books), having multiple very famous husbands, and being a muse at least to one (Capablanca's "I shall regain my crown for you"^[1], for example).

Keep I researched this woman and greatly improved the article with more information and citations. I wouldn't consider this person a writer, though she was also notable for her writings. She was married to two very notable people, and is discussed at length in their biographies. I would consider her a socialite as her main claim to fame is in relation to her husbands. That being said, a lot has been written about her. Current sourcing of the article now satisfies WP:GNG. WP:INHERITED states that someone doesn't automatically get an entry for being related to someone famous but "Individuals in close, personal relationships with famous people (including politicians) can have an independent article even if they are known solely for such a relationship, but only if they pass WP:GNG." And that is the case here. Lonehexagon (talk) 04:34, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
