Arvind Kumar Agrawal[edit]

Delete since it fails WP:NACADEMIC. A WP:BLP about a professor who held the post of vice chancellor which is not the highest position, and had to resign due to controversy about fake academic credentials. [1]Indian Express DBig Xrayᗙ 22:12, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. In the Indian system, vice chancellor actually is the highest academic position, as chancellor is a more ceremonial role. So vice chancellor of a major Indian university would clearly pass WP:PROF#C6. But Mahatma Gandhi Central University is so new that it might not pass the "major" part of the criterion. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:28, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nomination. Even if subject's credentials (which allowed him to occupy vice-chancellorship) were not fake, as sources report, the institution in question would still fail WP:PROF#C6, as David Eppstein points out. -The Gnome (talk) 11:59, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Silent Night (Mark Peters song)[edit]

We need more Russian speakers to hang around. In English resources, there's press releases and a few articles on their games; here's a video article from IGN. It looks like a few dozen hits also for Google Books but mostly about their games. Igromania however has a detailed report on their 26th birthday and I'd be willing to bet there are other Russian sources out there, and that was mostly just from a survey of the video games sources (mostly in English)--I suspect given their involvement outside of video games, and the age of their company, they might be found in American or Russian sources outside that domain. This isn't a keep, but it's not a delete for me either. --Izno (talk) 17:04, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment While I will admit the Igromania reference is a very good one here, I think that at best this should be merged into World of Warships. The coverage it got is exactly because of that and I just don't think there is enough to build a separate article for it. Will try to look into Russian sources to add.

American 14.1 Straight Pool Championship[edit]

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

Non-notable tournament, with virtually zero coverage from independent reliable sources. De-prodded with the addition of a single reference from a questionable source. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 17:46, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree that this is a non-notable tournament. Although games like 9-ball and 10-ball have taken over in the last few decades, straight pool/14.1 is historically the most notable game of pool and the American 14.1 tournament together with the World_Tournament are the most prestigious title for this game. Look at the name of the winners for the past few years and lookup their accomplishment in other games of pocket billiards. Many players come from across the ocean to play in that tournament. Also, I would not say that AzBillard is a "questionable source", it has been around for 20 years and it is the main reference on the web for anything related to pocket billiard (except for snooker maybe which has a lot of media coverage). --Prob2prob (talk) 19:33, 23 December 2018 (UTC)#[reply]
Keep AZ biliards is considered a reliable source for pool, and cue sports. See WP:CUE. To that end, I actually have a working relationship with AZBilliards signed off by WP:LIBRARY to use AZ Billiards as a source for all cue sports articles. Whilst AZBilliards does write their own information, it usually simply re-posts information from other sources. One look at: https://www.azbilliards.com/tours_and_events/304-american-141-straight-pool-championship/stories/ will show you that there has been quite a bit of press for the tournament, most notably in 2014, and 2017.

It should also be noted, it's run for 13 years. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:02, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This is one of the major events in pool (as distinct from snooker and carom billiards). Despite its name, it's not just a national title, but an international competition. Our article doesn't go into it, but it's actually the continuation of a much older event going back to mid-century (itself an outgrowth of challenge matches going back even earlier). In general, when organizers of an event change, we tend to treat it as a different event. In this case we have little choice, since the original event, the U.S. Open Straight Pool Championship, has also re-started under the original name (since 2016). AZ Billiards is not a questionable source; it's the no. 1 news source in cue sports, with a professional editorial board and journalists. Billiards: The Official Rules and Records Book (Billiard Congress of America, 2017 seems to be the most recent edition) will also be a source for this. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 12:09, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

West Haven Voice[edit]

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

Fails WP:GNG. I'm not considering WP:CORP because, as the admin who declined A7, observed, the article targets the publication rather than the publisher. Largoplazo (talk) 17:05, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Online sources are limited to West Haven Voice's online presence and two online indices of newpapers. Additionally, a Google newspaper search brought no results for other sources talking about the West Haven Voice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aurornisxui (talk • contribs) 18:40, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This article was created as part of this project: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Newspapers by a student who is learning to create Wikipedia articles.

While the current article is missing other citations, that is an easily fixable problem. Wikipedia:WikiProject_Newspapers/Notability has a good discussion on how for local newspapers, one could use some more relaxed criteria of notability. Emu14 (talk) 02:47, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I took a look through the essay, and I found I disagreed with a number of the criteria to consider. For example, "Its leadership is repeatedly quoted in other reliable sources, with reference to their leadership title and their expertise on the publication's topic ...". In evaluating the notability of a person, that the person may be quoted a lot is typically discounted as a sign of notability, I think to some extent on the grounds that it might just mean that they happen to be the knowledgable person with whom a particular journalist is familiar, or because the person is issuing PR on the subject. To say that, if the person leads a newspaper, that it indicates notability of the newspaper is a stretch and, in addition, runs up against WP:NOTINHERITED.

"Changes in ownership or leadership are covered by other newspapers in its region or covering a similar topic": For businesses, these are generally treated as routine coverage (as with people's births, marriages, and deaths, corporate openings, acquisitions, and dispositions often receive perfunctory coverage, often driven by press releases, without the business ever receiving significant coverage on account of its actual operations. I'd say that applies to newspapers.

I wasn't intending to give the essay a thorough review, just giving my two cents. Largoplazo (talk) 05:33, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also, see WP:RUNOFTHEMILL. By the way, I don't think I'd find my own community's comparable newspaper to meet the requirements. Largoplazo (talk) 17:50, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
When the student set the "ceased publication" parameter of The Wellesley Townsman infobox to read "penis",[2] was that part of their experience in learning to create Wikipedia articles? Also, the same editor created another copy of The Waterbury Observer today, copying the copyrighted highly promotional text wholesale from the newspaper's website, both of which are issues about which that editor had already been warned. The student needs to work harder on the learning, I'm afraid. Largoplazo (talk) 18:36, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for bringing the vandalism issue and the copyright issue to my attention. This is very serious and I will discuss this with the student in question. I appreciate your concern and time and care. Definitively this is not what I want students to be doing on Wikipedia. Emu14 (talk) 19:25, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - shenanigans Largoplazo, you should not be reverting edits [[3]] on an article you're calling for deletion. This is a form of wp:own, as you're effectively "guarding" the article against improvement. Also, Coatrack? Surely you jest! I guess you've never heard of Time (magazine), The New York Times or The Washington Post? There is nothing unusual about listing notable contributors (staff) in an article, or about what they did which was notable. I am not reverting this so as to avoid an edit war, and ask you do restore the point. If you want this to proceed as a deletion request, it should be done cleanly. Markvs88 (talk) 03:48, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Some edits may be improvements and some may bw worsening the text. Even deletions can be improvements if they are made according to policy and the encyclopaedic purpose of Wikipedia. I have participated in AfD discussions where I suggested Deletion but I also tried to improve the article by adding and/or substracting from the text. But I agree the specific deletion (about staff) should not have been made. -The Gnome (talk) 12:15, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Where did you ever get the idea that once one has nominated an article for deletion, one must lay off of ordinary editing work on the article? No, ordinary editing in keeping with guidelines of other people's contributions is not a form of WP:OWN. And, no, I wasn't jesting in the slightest. Something unrelated to the newspaper that once happened to a person who had previously been at that newspaper isn't relevant to the newspaper. It provides no information to the reader about the newspaper. For that reason, I didn't believe it belonged in the article. You're welcome to disagree and discuss it, but it doesn't merit your characterization of my edit.

Also, it isn't clear why you raised this here, since your concerns about my edit have nothing to do with consideration of this article for deletion. It's off-topic here. Largoplazo (talk) 13:16, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ordinary editing would be fine. Reverting a cited newly added point without discussion especially when you're the one calling for an article's deletion isn't just a form of OWN, it *reeks* of OWN. And I brought it up here as it totally chills new additions to an article and you deserve to be called out on the carpet for it. Is that on topic enough for you?

On the other note, it absolutely contributes to the notability of the newspaper.

PS - Thanks, The Gnome. I appreciate your addition. Markvs88 (talk) 17:23, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your invocation of WP:OWN goes against the entirety of that essay, the crux of which involves insistence, repetition, and a pattern of behavior. A single edit based on guidelines clearly explained in the edit summary doesn't carry even a whiff of WP:OWN, let alone reek of it, and the fact that I also didn't consider the article's subject notable doesn't change that. And, Oh! My! God!, a single edit in keeping with Wikipedia guidelines "reeks" and "chills" and "deserves to be called out on the carpet". This is unbelievable drama and I'm not buying into it one iota. Just, please, don't make up your own rules for behavior. And, no, it is still not remotely on topic here. That's what the article's talk page is for. Where do you think you'd be complaining about my edit if there didn't also happen to be a deletion discussion going on? Largoplazo (talk) 17:57, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The notion that any time a person receives a single surge of attention for a single newsworthy event (which doesn't consistently suffice to find even the person himself notable, per WP:SUSTAINED), it suddenly adds notability to every place that person had previously worked, gone to school, spent his summers, etc., is an absurdity (unless it can be said that that previous affiliation had some connection with later notability, such as being a source of the person's experience or expertise relevant to the later notability; in this case, no connection has been drawn between a reaction to a depiction of slavery and having once worked for the newspaper).

Delete per nomination. Subject does not yet possess adequate, independent notability. Wikipedia is not a scholarship project nor a depository of information.

Zu Online[edit]

Non notable video game that fails WP:GNG and WP:SUSTAINED. All references in the article are from the official website of IGG, making them primary. I was not able to find any other significant coverage from reliable secondary sources that satisfy WP:SIGCOV. Have in mind MMOHut, MMOs, Onrpg, MMORPG and MMOSite are all unreliable sources per WP:VG/RS, and looking at sources from the first AfD, they are interviews on MMOSite and IGN (making it primary sources) or just a passing mention like Gamasutra one.

True, this exists https://www.engadget.com/2008/01/23/first-impressions-zu-online/ (it is the same as the Massively source in the first AfD word by word), but that is it Jovanmilic97 (talk) 13:56, 15 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - WP:BEFORE did not turn up anything beyond sources deemed unreliable. As stated by nom, there is a single legitimate source. I do not believe a single RS qualifies as significant coverage. The IGN link mentioned in the first AfD that was used as a reason to keep the article is an interview from the developing company, which would be considered a primary source. The fact that this was supposed to be an MMO and the only mentions of it are MMO aggregates and routine interviews/press releases (and a single post on a Minecraft forum), speaks to the lack-of-notability. There are/were so many MMOs created, this is another one that disappeared into the dust. DeniedClub ^{❯❯❯ talk?} 08:31, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep While there are no independent sources in the article (and appear not to have been even when the lists of books were included), they do WP:NEXIST, eg 'William W. Johnstone - At a turning point with new book', by Sidney Williams in The Town Talk (Alexandria, Louisiana) 6 May 1995, pp C1 and C3 [6]; 3 paras in 'Great books let readers care about the characters', by Jan Jeffus, in The Town Talk (Alexandria, Louisiana) 16 March 1997, [7]; 1 para in 'Romance and Westerns' by Jacque Hillman in The Jackson Sun (Jackson, Tennessee) 4 February 1995, p 5B [8]; a Kirkus Review of What The Heart Knows [9]; 22 lines of quote, with comment, in a review of The Defense of Elitism in the Star Tribune (Minneapolis) 26 December 1994 [10]. I would say he does meet WP:NAUTHOR. RebeccaGreen (talk) 05:06, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Question: Can you explain which of the four points of author notability that meets?
  1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors. - A bare few local-paper book reviews do not constitute "widely cited".
  2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique. - Pulp westerns are not "a significant new concept, theory or technique".
  3. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. - Again I can't see how this applies.
  4. The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums. - There are neither monuments, nor exhibitions, nor "significant critical attention" (again a bare few local-paper book reviews are not "significant"), and I have not found any galleries or museums featuring Johnstone's works.

Simple point of order - Franklin W.

Sources individually don't support notability, but might do so in aggregate—I reviewed the full set of citations and scored them according to WP:ORGCRIT, then went looking for additional citations. I'm of the mind that there is only one citation (in the article) which speaks to the company itself (noting it's fate) and all others refer to individual toys or game genres. A radical thought - maybe circumstances like this call for transformation of an article from something about the company to something about the company's products (e.g. list of products type article). My source review for the article as of version 874618160:


Significant - Independent - Reliable - Secondary - Pass/Fail

1st 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (mention)

2nd 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (focus on a product)

3rd 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (mention)

4th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (mention)

5th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (focus on a licensing partner of the company)

6th 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Pass (though this is a Q&A column, seems OK; it does focus on one product and the company's demise)

7th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (about a game genre)

8th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (notes about two game products)

9th (subscription required)

10th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (about several games)

11th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (single mention, appearing to be in reference to one game)

12th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (focus on one game, no mention of the company)

13th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (focus on one game genre)

14th 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - Fail (focus on one game)

Comment WP:SIGCOV states that " "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." Source 1 has the following content relating to this company: "Now, thanks to the early 1983 invention of a children's game called IQ2000 ..... the manufacturers, Playtoy Industries of Toronto, have a success - $250,000 in sales for '83. "This trivia adventure game is the biggest thing to hit our company," Playtoy president Jerry Smith told The Gazette. Since 1973 the company's most successful item has been Tri-Ominos, one of four word games it produces." That is certainly more than a trivial mention. If it just said "IQ2000, manufactured by Playtoy Industries of Toronto" that would be a trivial mention - it would not address the topic directly and in detail. But the actual article does address the company directly and give details (the president's name, the amount of sales from one game in one year, the previous most successful item, the fact that it produces that item and three others like it). I could go through most of the sources the same way. #4 gives the name of the vice-president of sales and marketing, more information about the sales of IQ2000 (almost 5 million copies sold by 1991), plus the information that that vice-president was also inventing games, and info about the game itself. I had not finished adding references - this one [11] is also about a particular new game, but has more info about the company, describing it as "a major Canadian toy manufacturer and distributor", says it introduces three new Canadian games each year, is always looking for new Canadian-invented adult parlor games, and that the sales of the new game were between 25,000-50,000 a year. I think you are setting the bar for "significant" too high. As for your suggestion about having an article about the company's products - the current article does include a list of the company's products. Why would we have a list like that without any information about the company, when that information is available? RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:42, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Dab pages are not search indices. All-redlink dab pages are very rare and usually speedily deleted. Of the 4 entries, one is not called Ludington House, one is simply part of an inset illustration without explanation on an 1872 map, one is an ad for a current B&B, and only one is independently notable. The passing mentions are not substantial and the page gets in the way of the search engine. Station1 (talk) 21:01, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. As stated, these are all red links. This would be of no use to someone using Wikipedia. Beasting123 (talk) 03:48, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I would say that the nominator and "Keep" voters are not familiar with disambiguation page guidelines, if they were voting with respect to the current disambiguation page (which has been cleaned up by User:PamD and perhaps others). Please see MOS:DABRL which, if I recall correctly, provides the clarification that a redlink item can be a valid disambiguation page entry, provided that a supporting bluelink is included which shows usage of the redlink in context. In this dab page there are 100 percent valid items such as Ludington House (Lawrence, Kansas) (currently a redlink) a historic residence listed on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Douglas County, Kansas, United States. --Doncram (talk) 02:41, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Please note: in order to "win" this AFD, I could easily create a stub article for Ludington House (Lawrence, Kansas), which we know is a valid Wikipedia topic because the place is NRHP-listed and will sooner or later have an article created. And there are other places referred to, at least sometimes, as "Ludington House". Then you all agree the disambiguation page would be okay, right? So then obviously it would be silly to delete the disambiguation page now, only to require recreating it later, right? Delete voters, please consider striking your delete votes, or please do comment further and/or ask questions towards clearing up misunderstandings here. If you really doubt my "expertise" about this, feel free to post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation or anywhere else to round up other disambiguation-focused experts. Sincerely, --Doncram (talk) 02:41, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and convert to SIA. The easiest thing to do with pages like this which are actually useful but break disambiguation page guidelines is to convert them to an SIA (a list of houses called "Ludington House"). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:53, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per MOS:DABMENTION etc., etc. If deleted, it could be created as a redirect to any one of the blue links in the disambiguation page, which is exactly why it's a disambiguation page, to solve the technical issue of not being able to redirect to more than one of them. -- JHunterJ (talk) 14:40, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There are multiple ways to handle this unusual article, but the MOS/DABRL issue seems to have been addressed, leaving the issues of "getting in the way of the search engine" and "this should be an SIA". The latter one is not a deletion issue, and can be handled elsewhere. As for getting in the way of the search engine, maybe, but like other dab pages this one helps a casual reader get immediate context on the various possibilities for the term. Put another way, there's not a significant problem here that deletion will solve, so the rest can be handled away from AfD. Bakazaka (talk) 21:52, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Regina Lewis-Ward[edit]

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

WP:BLP of a politician "notable" only as a smalltown municipal councillor and non-winning candidate for election to the state legislature. As always, neither of these is an WP:NPOL pass -- a person has to win election to the state house, not just run and lose, to clinch notability from the state legislature election, and city councillors are presumed notable only in a small elite tier of major metropolitan global cities on the order of New York City or Chicago. But this article is not referenced anywhere near well enough to make her a special case over and above most other city councillors or most other non-winning candidates for office -- it's referenced to a mix of primary sources and blogs that do absolutely nothing whatsoever to establish notability, routine local coverage in the local community pennysaver of a volume and depth that every city councillor everywhere could always show, and glancing namechecks of her existence in extralocal coverage that isn't about her. As always, this is not how you make a smalltown city councillor notable enough to claim "special case" status among a not otherwise notable class of topic.

Comment created by apparent SPA valereee (talk) 10:10, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Lacks the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources to establish notability. Much of the sourcing is either primary or from the Henry Harold, a local community paper. The references in most cases do not provide a URL, but following up on some of them, the references are very thin indeed. For example, reference #9 from Talking Points Memo is a shining example of a passing mention (see for yourself). References #11 to #15 are used to source a single sentence which has nothing to do with Lewis-Ward. Seventeen references for a short bio article may seem like a goodly quantity, but an examination of the quality makes it clear that they do nothing much to support notability. -- Whpq (talk) 14:00, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I've gone through and checked a couple sources (the ones that are now linked) and they're both bare mentions in short pieces in community newspapers. Frankly I find it absolutely irritating that the page creator didn't link to sources. It seems intentionally misleading. Most of these aren't sources that are difficult to find online. It feels like actively deciding AGAINST linking to make checking more difficult, which I find reprehensible. If Regina Ward-Lewis were truly notable, surely the author would have WANTED to make it easy to check sources. I may try to check a couple of the clearly reliable sources referenced just to be on the safe side, but I'm feeling like between the SPA and the not linking to sources, this is a bad faith situation. valereee (talk) 14:08, 25 December 2018 (UTC) ETA: okay, I checked (and linked to) the Atlanta Journal-Constitution story and one of the NYT stories about the Canarsie protests.

Redirect. If it is a duplicate article, then no AFD is necessary. Simply redirect from one valid alternative name to the other name, and note both valid names in the lede of the article in bold. If you think there could be disagreement about such a redirect/merger, then set up a wp:RM merger request at the Talk page of the intended target, but here I doubt that it is controversial. Since it is known by two names, as far as I can tell, then "Delete" is invalid as an outcome here. A redirect is needed. --Doncram (talk) 06:56, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and rename per Icewhiz. SportingFlyer talk 07:24, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how "delete and rename" could be sensible. I just inserted comment below Icewhiz's !vote. I see no justification provided by Icewhiz or User:SportingFlyer why deletion is necessary. Why not simply redirect (and also possibly move)? --Doncram (talk) 08:43, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This might have scraped through under our old WP:NCORP notability guidelines, but it doesn't meet the revised requirements. I can see no in-depth coverage of the shop in the sources in the article, nor do I find any by searching. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:21, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Budapest International Documentary Festival[edit]

Non-notable, perhaps WP:DIVERSE and WP:DEPTH. Little local coverage except for tourist, event sites. Fails WP:SIGCOV scope_creep^Talk 22:18, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's a notable film festival in the country. These are some of the biggest online media outlets reporting about the next BIDF: 1, 2, 3, 4 --Adam Harangozó (talk) 12:06, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Hi Adam Harangozó Add the references to the article, so folk can take a look please. scope_creep^Talk 12:51, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete with remorse! This is by all means a worthy festival but the sourcing is inadequate for a Wikipedia article. The project's encyclopaedic purpose trumps personal preferences. -The Gnome (talk) 14:56, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for failing WP:SIGCOV. As The Gnome points out, it's not a comment on the festival itself, merely that it doesn't have the notability that a global encyclopedia requires. Ifnord (talk) 17:25, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for poor sourcing. Fails WP:GNG. FWIW, the Hungarian Wikipedia article is also sparse, and is a recent creation as well. [[12]]. WP:TOOSOON also? TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 20:28, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – I don't believe this passes any specific guidelines, but regardless, the lack of references alone makes the article not warranted. ––Redditaddict69 ^(talk) ^(contribs) 10:12, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
