The result was redirect to Marko Jovanović. OK, thanks to pagemoves and redirect and edits whatnot it's not clear to me which article is being discussed here. I am assuming that the topic is a musician whose article was just redirected to the dab page so I'll leave this as-is. Consensus is in favour of deletion with or without redirect, but I see no reason to disturb the redirect currently present so it looks like the status quo satisfies the desires of participants.

  • I explained the issue perfectly clearly when deprodding. How about taking a bit of time to think before making such a knee-jerk deletion nomination? The prize for which this author was shortlisted is the top prize for woman authors, and one of the top handful of prizes for any author, in the UK. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 22:04, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per the many reviews available to anyone who takes a few seconds to look, for example by clicking on "news" above, for example [1], [2], [3], [4] etc., as well as the shortlisting for the Women's Prize for Fiction that obviously spells notability to anyone with any clue. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 22:11, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Her book The Portable Veblen received multiple reviews (in addition to those listed above, also New York Times, LA Times, NPR, and others). She therefore qualifies under WP:AUTHOR #3 (produced a work that is the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews). Also nominated for National Book Award, California Book Awards and as mentioned before, Women's Prize for Fiction. Hzh (talk) 00:53, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - in agreement with those above. I have done some work on the article so it now lists all three of her books and links to reviews of them. Tacyarg (talk) 01:02, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep When the first three pages of a Google search includes all of these, it is not only obvious that the subject is notable but also that the prodder and nominator haven't looked very hard: [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]. --Michig (talk) 11:08, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep (what is all this white fluffy stuff:)), meets WP:NAUTHOR and WP:GNG, books are well known ie. The Portable Veblen held by around 1000 libraries, books have been reviewed by lots of sources, as listed above. Coolabahapple (talk) 23:04, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Obvious keep nominated for one of the most prestigious literature prizes for female authors should, in itself, be sufficient, yet above sources provided should be 1000% more than required to turn this into a speedy keep. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:41, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would have thought that the administrator who nominated this would have withdrawn by now to save Wikipedia the embarrassment of having a deletion template on the article about the only person ever to have been shortlisted for this prize whose notability is supposedly in doubt. But, then again, pigs might fly. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:09, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It fails WP:BLP as an WP:NOTE as through a cursory search through google throws up only one result from St. Louis Post Dispatch and that is only in passing. I know he just became Police Commisioner of St. Louis but that does not mean he is notable yet. I suggest wait till he has more sources released.

I added an AP-written article from the Lexington Herald Leader to Chief of the Metropolitan Police Department, City of St. LouisUnscintillating (talk) 22:38, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Individual clearly has no encyclopedic notability. The St. Louis Police Dept. is arguably notable, but notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. Being hired as the head of a notable organization does not make a living person notable enough to have their own page (basically WP:BLP1E and WP:BIO1E). All the coverage of him used to argue notability is really about the police department and his appointment to run it. It would be sufficient to mention him as the current chief on the police department page, and add any relevant detail about his tenure there. Until he is possibly notable for just this one thing, this unnecessary biography should be deleted per WP:BLP. Shelbystripes (talk) 23:09, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Unscintillating: I'm confused. Why is BLP1E an argument to merge? I didn't argue for merge, I argued for deletion. I said I wouldn't object to someone mentioning him on the St. Louis police page if someone wants to, bur that's it. An entire biography on him shouldn't be merged into that page . BLP1E isn't necessarily an argument for merge, it's an argument for deleting a BLP. I mean, BLP1E says that it "is usually better to merge the information" in one particular case, why even say that if BLP1E = merge as you said? Shelbystripes (talk) 01:35, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • The topic here is not a low-profile individual, so that one point alone eliminates WP:BLP1E.  But ignoring the points that the topic here is not a low-profile individual, and the announcement only partially qualifies as an event, the rest of the sentence you quoted in WP:BLP1E reads,

"In such cases, it is usually better to merge the information and redirect the person's name to the event article."

So the content is merged (subject to WP:DUE), attribution is retained in the edit history, and the topic itself is redirected.  Also, policy is to WP:PRESERVE.  How does deletion of the edit history improve the encyclopedia?  Unscintillating (talk) 15:24, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I am seeing in depth coverage by reliable sources. --RAN (talk) 14:26, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There is significant media coverage of his appointment to the post. While not every police chief of moderately large cities is notable, the unrest following the Ferguson shooting and trial makes this position of particular note. --Flipster14191 (talk) 05:01, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

NN musical group failing all 12 elements of WP:BAND. One could argue that there are few obscure pubs that could possibly be interpreted as passing #1 or GNG, but at the end of the day, you've got 4 no-name musicians without a notable label, self-releasing recordings on their own website.

  • Weak Keep as has rs coverage such as Daily Nebraskan and Punk News. Think Dreams of Water, their album, may have charted but will check up on that. For searching note that they changed their name from the original Happy Body Slow Brain. Atlantic306 (talk) 20:31, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Changed to weak keep as could not find any evidence of charting, at least in the U.S., unlikely to be charting elsewhere Atlantic306 (talk) 17:27, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Note re: The Daily Nebraskan. It is not sourced to that publication, but to, rather, The Dailyer Nebraskan, which is a university publication. School papers are not good sources for notability. ShelbyMarion (talk) 18:19, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Appears to fail WP:BAND; searching for band (under old or new name) did not yield reliable sources, just press releases or online music sites/blogs (I don't think stuff like punknews.org is a reliable source but there's not even much of that available). Unknown bands with self-published albums lack encyclopedic notability. Shelbystripes (talk) 22:54, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Agree with Shelbystripes. (BTW, we are NOT the same person; because of our similar user names about a year ago someone mistook me for this editor). Re: Punknews, yes it is a reliable source for the punk scene, but not all coverage therein is significant. In this case, it is merely a list of performance dates. The coverage I found is small time/trivial and merely confirms existence rather than significant coverage. ShelbyMarion (talk) 18:11, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Heavily canvassed article, violating WP:COI. Definitely fails WP:GNG, out of 5 external sources, just 2 are actually independent though local and way too recent, thus failing WP:NOTNEWS.

  • Keep: I'm an admin on scn.wiki and have been following the work of the Cademia for a while because of my interest in the Sicilian language - but I would not have thought that that of itself would qualify as a conflict of interest. Furthermore, despite a few accusations flying around, I did not write any of the articles on the Cademia in any of scn.wiki, it.wiki or en.wiki, nor am I a member of the Cademia, nor do I have any role within the Cademia. I follow what they do from afar (from Australia to be precise). From what I can gather, the Cademia does exist, that is not in doubt, and its board comprises experts in the field of linguistics. Also the claim above that only 2 of 5 external sources are independent appears to be false. Apart from producing a proposal for a Sicilian orthography, it is on the public record that both Firefox and Facebook have been working directly with Cademia to have Sicilian included within their offerings, and that gives some weight to the Cademia's standing, at least in the IT field. The last point I would like to make, is that a number of wikipedians (from it.wiki) have weighed in with the deletion notice, but each time offering conflicting reasons, in at least one case, an absurd reason, which does suggest something is afoot on that front (and one needs only to read the talk page on the it.wiki article on the Sicilian language to gauge the antipathy directed at Sicilian from some quarters of the it.wiki community). I don't really like to bring up such distasteful goings on here, but I believe it is part of the milieu of the present exercise. πιππίνυ δ - (dica) 00:33, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    I'll abstain from commenting about conspirationism, though it must be noted that who started the AfD (me!) speaks Sicilian on a daily basis.
    Existence doesn't imply notability. Yep, only 2 out of 5 sources are independent: generally, interviews cannot be considered independent. Finally having no external sources is hard to tell "that both Firefox and Facebook have been working directly with Cademia" since translations at both organisation are volunteer-based, open and collaborative. --Vituzzu (talk) 23:02, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: I fail to see how the referenced interviews are not independent, given it's not proven that the interviewees and the interviewers are linked. I consider all the references given as third-party. I do agree it's a small and relatively new organization, but it passes WP:RECENT. We should also consider that its field of action is superspecialized: we can't expect massive international coverage, given that Sicilian is a minority language. This should also lower the quantity of citations needed for being considered having significant coverage. I also just found one more reference to the organization, related to CLDR, which I'm going to add to the article. --dapal(write me @) 23:51, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not surprised by you opinion since you're pushing Cademia through en.wiki. Anyway, no "lowering of GNG for anyone dealing with minority languages" can be inferred from policies, still, lowering cannot mean "zeroing" or "five mentions are enough". --Vituzzu (talk) 18:22, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    So what? Don't I have the same voting right as others? If I keep working on Cadèmia-related articles it's just because I believe it's worthwhile. --dapal(write me @) 08:42, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep English sources for this must be very scarce but in itself an organization for promoting minority language should have an article on educational project Wikipedia. Two of the sources are agree upon to be truly independent and this is indicator of existence of more–Ammarpad (talk) 03:09, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Interviews may be suspect if used to support statements about a subject ("I don’t make money from Russia" does not help to establish that the interviewee never took Russian money), but they are fine for establishing notability.  --Lambiam 12:35, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    AfD are serious matters, not the place to joke in random ways. Interviews on a bunch of local online news sites aren't both independent (since they actually just report subjects' views) and are definitely not a significant coverage. --Vituzzu (talk) 18:22, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    Let me just state that I disagree on both counts.  --Lambiam 09:23, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Wikipedia:Recentism, local sources, cross-wiki spam and evidently not notable association, sources not considerable, Wikipedia:Canvassing between users like @Pippu d'angelo: and, for example, Dapal and the author. A encyclopedia is a serious thing, not a box for personal POV.--Kirk39 (talk) 22:18, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. As other just said: cross-wiki SPAM, recentism, local sources, evidently not notable association. A private no-profit founded by the author of the article, which has no authorithy above Sicilian language, at any level, and is not recognised by anybody in Sicily, in Italy, in Europe nor in the whole world. Wikipedia is not a place for doing promotion. By the way the accusation of Pippu d'Angelo are rather disgusting. I fully support the Italian regional languages and I think they should be preserved and teached in the public schools; I like Sicilian language and I actually think the Cadèmia Siciliana is a good initiative. But as a Wikipedian I must stand aginst SPAM and promotional content on Wikipedia. I send back the accusations, asking why a sysop on scn.wiki don't even know the basic guidelines of the project, uploading copyrighted material on Commons and writing blatantly inacceptable articles on scn.wiki. You're discrediting the whole project and preventing the Sicilian speakers to have a quality, reliable encyclopaedia in their language. --Phyrexian ɸ 17:55, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You and Kirk need to re-read the recentism policy, quite clearly, the contents of this article does not come within the ambit of that policy in any way, shape or form. As to it.wiki's antipathy directed at Sicilian, one needs only to read the Lingua siciliana talk page on it.wiki to know what I'm talking about. πιππίνυ δ - (dica) 22:50, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
And you need te re-read the policies linked by Vituzzo opening this page: WP:COI; WP:GNG; WP:NOTNEWS; WP:ORG. And also to (re?)read WP:5P, expecially the fisrt and fourth. About your nasty accusations: do you read the nicknames Phyrexian, Kirk or Vituzzu in the Lingua siciliana talk page on it.wiki? I do not. --Phyrexian ɸ 23:45, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Oh wow. This got really intense. I have a genuine question, I think notability guidelines on the Italian Wikipedia are more strict than English language one. Am I correct? I've noticed that the Keepers are all EN Wikipedians and the Deleters are all IT Wikipedians. I personally have witnessed those stricter standards there. This is NOT an attack, I am 100% curious and I don't know where to ask such a question in order to seek consensus. I think everyone needs to remember to Wikipedia:Assume good faith, clearly everyone here is interested in Sicilian, we can reach compromises. Furthermore, a lot of us are part of WikiProject Sicily and Sicilian language related material, we can collaborate to reach balanced consensus driven content that is encyclopedic. I'm trying to do that as well with the Draft:Sicilian_orthography and your input would be appreciated. Paolorausch (talk) 19:31, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    You honestly think the topic "Cadèmia Siciliana" (aka your private organization) is relevant enought that should be described in an encyclopaedia? So why you're not trying to push it in the Treccani or the Encyclopædia Britannica? This sound to be completly absurd? Yeah, the same seem to me. Or you're just trying to get some free visibility? If my questions sound rethorical to you, assuming good faith is quite hard in this case. --Phyrexian ɸ 23:52, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oof. I've been editing and contributing to Sicilian related content for over 10 years now, please don't attack me personally. Yes, I would appreciate if you assume GF and if everyone here stopped making ad hominem attacks. That IS a wikipedia policy WP:5P4. The conversation is about notability, if I didn't think that just like other related topics that have passed notability this article wasn't notable I would support deletion. But on the English Wikipedia as several people have said the notability guidelines here are consistent with this organisation's notability. The guidelines to be included in Treccani and EB are different than Wikipedia, I'm sure you're quite aware of this fact. As cool as it would be to see Minority Language non-profits and Regulatory agencies in EB and Treccani, I'm sure you're aware that their scope is much more limited. CSFLS, ARLeF etc don't even have Treccani articles and those are government recognised and supported institutions. Although I respect your point that CS is not important enough for Treccani or EB, their objectives are not Wikipedia Notability Guidelines and it's not a valid comparison in the context of this AfD Debate.Paolorausch (talk) 10:31, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete The keep arguments are either tainted by involvement in promoting this organisation or wishful thinking /assertions.

What I've seen doesn't suggest there's enough coverage to satisfy WP:ORG. I don't see anything that looks like indepth coverage such as foundational history, and none of the sources appear to be journalistic entities such as Italian newspapers. I Googled several of the top Italian newspapers with the organization's name, and found nothing. I'd like to see some coverage in the Italian mainstream press; short of that, my vote is to merge and redirect content to Sicilian language#Sicily. One other note - this is a fairly new group and has only presented its orthographical proposal for the Sicilian language - maybe WP:TOOSOON applies also, until it is accepted and put into use.

New to this process, not sure how to send messages. But why is this being considered for deletion? I get this info from a website and constantly listening to the station and put the info in a spreadsheet. I do not know how to list the sources. I made this page as I would be interested in what songs a radio station plays and it didn't need to be on the main page. Since i have been following it for a few months now I thought it would be nice to have if other were interested. Any help on how to make this page suitable to say would be appreciated. If this is not the right place to write this please message me and let me know how to message. Tourist2088 (talk) 16:24, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Tourist2088, please see WP:NOTRADIOGUIDE (point 4) and WP:INTERESTING. If you can't find an independent reliable source that states every song played on the radio station so that other editors can verify that what you say is true, then it shouldn't be included on Wikipedia. Richard3120 (talk) 18:04, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Richard3120. I get my info from listening constantly, watching the recently played on their website as well as this site here, http://onlineradiobox.com/us/kazr/playlist/?cs=us.kazr , but that is only foe the last 7 days. I put that in a google spreadsheet. Is that reliable enough? Not sure how to link sources. I'll give it a try. Tourist2088 (talk) 18:14, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No it isn't, unfortunately, because we have no way of verifying the contents of your spreadsheet – please don't misunderstand me, I'm sure you're not making anything up, but ultimately your word is all we have to go on. And the list is never going to be complete, unless you have been listening from the very first day the station started broadcasting. Richard3120 (talk) 18:23, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I thought it would be useful. That's why I made it. When I visited the page it had very little info I cared to read about. It is just a list of what they have played. Not what they are going to play. But they way they are, it probably is going to to be what play. They drove me crazy with their slogan "Everything That Rocks" then constantly seemed to play the same songs over and over. I just wanted to see in writing what "rocks". I figured the more info the better. Richard3120 I understand what you mean. But still, now I am just a sad tourist again. Tourist2088 (talk) 22:00, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw that Mrschimpf has removed all the info I found interesting from the KAZR. Showing me that I have wasted a lot of time contributing. I thought it was nice to have some new info every month to look forward to. When I saw it was gone, that all sadness of my recent depression came back. I didn't see myself losing interest in this anytime, but even if I did. It still would have been nice to see some of what happened. I don't know if anyone else saw that info as useful or interesting. But I did and it brought me a little joy. Sadly made me feel like I had a purpose. And to see months of work taken away in a second has been devastating. Sorry I wasted everyone's times. But most of all I'm sorry I wasted mine. I'll stop. If this page is still around in a few days I'll start working on it again. But I have lost interest for now. Thank you. Sorry.

And for the record. This was for people looking to hear rock music from bands like Trivium, Anthrax, Strapping Young Lad, Rancid, and other hard rock/punk artists, that won't be found here. Not the pop artists mentioned above. I thought that was obvious. I really like the sort-able columns Wikipedia offers. That was helpful to me. In seeing what this station plays. Tourist2088 (talk) 01:34, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Those aren't bands you'd be particularly likely to hear on any commercial "mainstream rock" station anywhere — it's not a question of KAZR being somehow uniquely recalcitrant about what it plays, because radio formats are tightly managed across the board. There's a "core" list of artists deemed acceptable by professional radio consultants for airplay on each conventional radio format, and no commercial radio station anywhere in the entire United States diverges from its format's core list very much at all. Generally, you would need to look to non-commercial radio stations, such as college radio or "listener-supported" public stations, to hear artists that haven't been deemed to fit a standardized commercial radio format. Yes, it sucks — but you need to blame the general nationwide phenomenon of radio homogenization, not KAZR itself. Bearcat (talk) 22:34, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

AFD discussions normally stay open for a minimum of seven days except in exceptional circumstances. Richard's right, you need to not take it so personally. Bearcat (talk) 22:22, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Tourist2088, please don't take this personally, nobody's having a go at you, it's just that verifiability is one of Wikipedia's core tenets. You can carry on your spreadsheet at home, and Excel also has a sortable column function, if that helps you out. By all means feel free to contribute to the Wikipedia articles about the bands you like, if you can provide information from reliable sources such as newspapers, music magazines (both print and online) – just not from social media or blogs.

I was confused on what an Active Rock station is. I assumed they play mostly "Active" bands. But this station plays a lot for Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. That is probably why they report as both Active and Mainstream. But still they claim to play "Everything" that rocks and I just wanted to provide a list of what they have played that "Rocks" since I could not find one. So I went out to get this info on my own. I used to see may "Lists" on wikipedia, but, looking for them now, they must have been deleted as I have not been able to find many i have seen in the past. Would it be okay if i had this list on my userpage? So I can use the template thing it has also have links to all the songs, artists, and albums? That is really cool info to have in one spot. If its not allowed in general can I have it on my userpage? I was reading the guidlines and it seemed like it would be frowned upon and possible deleted. As some of you may have guessed reading and fully understanding is not a strength of mine. I am a little unstable, very sensitive and take things personally easily. I understand no one was "going at me" but that is just the way it seemed. Would it really hurt anything if i had this on my user page as a work in progress that will never be finished? Tourist2088 (talk) 06:05, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at this policy, the answer would almost certainly be a no on that request, I'm afraid, specifically because the data wouldn't be intended to be included in an article (since the article itself looks bound for deletion). That said, and this goes back to the comments I made on your Talk page a couple of days ago, there may be other sites out there that run the same software where you could either store the information in this format or even use it in another regard. I haven't the faintest idea which sites or even whether they exist, I hasten to add, but Wikipedia is far from the only wiki out there online. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 11:17, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately that is what I took from that policy as well. Reading all of these "Wikipedia is not..." drives me to see that Wikipedia is not as great as I thought. If it was on my userspace i could possibly work it into something that is acceptable someday. But I would try to get to work one day. Tourist2088 (talk) 02:22, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There's a little bit of scope if you were actively working on it being something acceptable someday, in that you can create a draft. Drafts tend only to get listed for deletion if they've not been worked on in 6 months or so. The issue, though, would still be whether creating a draft of a list which isn't encyclopedic (while "Wikipedia is not" plenty of things, it's first and foremost an encyclopedia, and that's the starting point for working out what it isn't, if that makes sense) would be a smart move. Given that it's highly unlikely for policies to change sufficiently to allow this to be a viable inclusion, it may be taken as "thumbing your nose" at consensus. What would be wrong with simply keeping the work on your hard drive and updating it there, pending the appearance of another suitable home for it? BigHaz - Schreit mich an 00:24, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing wrong with keeping it on my hard drive. I am still working on this in the spreadsheet. But, its a boring looking spreadsheet. Like I have said I just really like the presentation on Wikipedia, with links to the song, artist, album articles. If i made a draft I would definitely work on it at least once a month to update it. I would make attempt to make it into a real article. Also, not that i care too much about radio stations. But since i listen to this station and say they play everything that rocks. I would just like to see a list of what "Rocks". I understand a list certainly does not deserve its own article it would be nice if on the KAZR page it had the list of songs played in a "click on to Show" template, like some albums that have bonus tracks. It would be like an appendix of sorts. I don't vist many websites so I really am not looking for another place to put this info. I did kind of start a Facebook page, but the info had a boring presentation. Tourist2088 (talk) 02:03, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So if it's the aesthetics of the spreadsheet versus Wikipedia, there are bound to be other sites out there which will enable you to display this information however you want to. I appreciate that you don't particularly want to display it anywhere other than Wikipedia, but the fact remains that it really isn't "Wikipedia-ish", or encyclopedic if you prefer. The fact that you'd be working on the draft is all well and good, but the other issue with drafts is that they have to stand some kind of a chance of turning into articles, and as per the comments above, this one really doesn't, since there's no way of verifying the research (essentially what you've been doing, which can be an issue) you've done on the matter. So even if you worked on it for hours every day, that's highly unlikely to change. As far as your goal of "finding out what rocks" in line with the station's slogan, there are probably a couple of points to make there as well. The first is that there are articles on both active rock and mainstream rock, which the article on the station suggests are the kinds of music it plays. The first of those gives a reasonable list of bands such stations would play (the second doesn't, for some reason), so there's at least part of the answer already. Those articles won't give 100% of the playlist of every conceivable radio station playing a given format, but neither should they, since it wouldn't be encyclopedic. The second point is that, as far as I'm following you, you can find out what the station considers to be "everything that rocks" by listening to it as you do. Looking at the data you've already assembled, you've got a more than reasonable list of what the station thinks "rocks", so if the list was (at least originally) an attempt at answering the question of "What do they mean by their slogan?", I'd say you know by now. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 02:35, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I read those two articles and the active rock article helps a little but also goes against what the station plays. Sometimes what they say rocks surprises me. Which is why I started the list. Too bad their isn't a companion site called Wikilists. A place where all the lists that get deleted could go. I guess the mainstream article doesn't give examples because there are too many. The problem with listening to this station find out what rocks is difficult because it always seems to be the same songs most over 20 years old.

  • Speedy delete. When it sounds promotional and has SPCV hallmarks, its time to run a copyvio-check: text has been copied from the foundation's About page. The article section "The sanctuary" is a verbatim copy-paste. The History section took me a few minutes to figure out. At first it looks like close paraphrasing of the "Who Are We?" section on the About page. But the broken English suggests it is a machine translation. And sure enough, it is a Google Translation of the section Kezdetek from the article on Hungarian Wikipedia. (I do not speak Hungarian, but judging from the Google Translation of the article on hu.wp it could be a c-v/close paraphrasing case in its own right.) I see nothing worth salvaging in any revision, so revdel and rebuilding the article seems without purpose; I am going to tag it for speedy deletion. I am hatting here below the sources PaleoNeonate provided on the article talk page, if anyone wishes to start a new draft. Sam Sailor 07:52, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Essentially a CV of an average professor. – Joe (talk) 12:46, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:PROF#C1 (Google scholar search for author SA-Qureshi shows citation counts of 837, 403, 352, ... with 27 papers cited over 100 times each and an h-index of roughly 54, well over enough for this criterion, and spot-checking found nothing by other authors with similar names mixed in) and WP:PROF#C3 (the Jafferali Lalji Endowed Professorship despite the difficulty of verifying this from independent sources). —David Eppstein (talk) 04:05, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@David Eppstein: Hold on. Of the top twenty results for "SA Qureshi", all the papers with full names attached are by different people (Sajjad A. Qureshi, Sheeraz A. Qureshi, Shakeel A. Qureshi, Saeed A. Qureshi). I only found two papers by Sohail A. Qureshi with more than 100 citations [16][17] and Web of Science calculates his h-index as 8.
With that in mind, I'm not convinced that the purported endowed professorship at Aga Khan University is a marker of sufficient impact or source coverage. Indeed, I can't find a single independent source that mentions the existence of a Jafferali Lalji Professor at AKU. The article says he held an endowed professorship between 2004 and 2010, but this source (cited in the article) describes him has an associate professor in 2007. This one (2016) doesn't mention anything about it and neither does Qureshi himself on his LinkedIn page. – Joe (talk) 09:28, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An open access journal listed by Beall as predatory. Not in ISI, not in DOAJ, no impact factor, not indexed in PubMed. And we can't really say any of that because there are no reliable independent sources about the journal other than Beall's list and mirrors. Guy (Help!) 16:49, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I lean keep here. It may not be indexed in PUBMEB, but it's indexed in "Scopus, SCImago, Elsevier Biobase, Compendex, IndMedica, FLUIDEX, Geobase, Excerpta Medica, EMBASE, J-Gate, EMbiology, Biosis Previews, Biosis, Electronic Database, Chemical Abstracts, EBSCO Publishing, Science Edition, CINAHL." according to the journal website. Scopus alone is usually worthy of inclusion.
If we don't trust the journal website, then MIAR: 0971-9032 lists Scopus, EMBASE and SCImago. Gonna @DGG: here. It has a ridiculously low impact metric however. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 17:33, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Changed to delete. Too many signs of predatoriness, basic information cannot even be trusted, and a journal of utterly low impact. All of this combined voids any presumption of notability we may grant to journals normally. Scopus may usually be selective enough, but this is clearly a case where they either erred, or that the journal got hijacked after inclusion. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:53, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Indexing in Scopus is sufficient. their coverage is sometimes not very exclusive, but our coverage also should be a s broad as possible, because the information on journals helps the evaluation of references using them. I do point out, though, that most of the others listed are unselective. I'm not sure where the got the impact factor given on their website ( 1.63); it's not high for a journal in this field, but it's not ridiculously low . DGG ( talk ) 07:30, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I was talking about the SJR, which lists a total of something like 8 citations in the last year. I call that ridiculously low for a medical journal. I don't believe the 1.63 impact factor, since it's not covered by Journal Citation Reports. It has to be one of the fake impact factors, or a plain and simply lie. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:08, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Indexing in SCOPUS is not, and cannot be, sufficient, because SCOPUS does not give us any commentary on the quality of the journal. It's not in ISI, not in DOAJ, not in JCR, not in PubMed (wich is a definite problem for a medical journal) and, as randykitty correctly identified, we can't say any of that because the only independent source that has anything to say about it at all, is Beall. How can we have an WP:NPOV article on what is, according to all the evidence, a fake journal, when the only admissible source is presence in an index?
And this is getting a bit weird. The journal homepage is with a company called Allied Academies, based in London. The index page says the ISSN is linked to an Indian publisher called Scientific Publishers. The "source" link in the index gores to pedatricresearch.info, which doesn't exist. The SJR for the Indian journal is 0.12, whereas this journal claims 1.63. Literally nothing about this checks out. DGG, please check it yourself. It is possibly a hijacked journal, I don't know, but it is pretty clear to me that we need secondary sources, not primary, for exactly that reason. Guy (Help!) 13:47, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Indices like Scopus don't need to give commentary, this is about selectivity. Scopus also computes the SCImago Journal Rank, for what it's worth. In this case, I think Scopus got swindled by crap, or that the journal got hijacked after inclusion.Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:50, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And Wikipedia is about NPOV. This article is a mashup of at least two different journals, and it is impossible to find out what belongs where because there are zero independent secondary sources. Simple test for you: reviewing the indexes, who publishes the journal? The ISSN on the linked homepage brings up records to a similarly titled journal published by a different company on a different continent. How does being in SCOPUS help us to fix that? Guy (Help!) 14:57, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There's no POV problems in the article. The publisher is Allied Academies as can be verified by the journal's website. Scientific Publishers of India is likely the original publisher, and then something happened afterwards, like the journal or imprint got sold. The issue is that WP:V is compromised in a lot of other places, and that WP:N is not established. It's quite likely Scopus inclusion comes from before whenever Allied Academies got involved, and it's just never been reviewed since.Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 15:40, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
What you just did is textbook WP:OR. SCOPUS is a reliable source, it says the journal is published by Scientific Publishers of India. We have two primary sources, SCOPUS and the website, and SCOPUS, taken at face value, is talking about a completely different journal - any inference to the contrary is entirely our own conjecture. it might be a hijack or the journal might have been sold, we don't know. In fact we can't say the journal is in SCOPUS because the only source we have for that is the website, which also gives an impact factor that does not check out. This is precisely why Wikipedia policy has always been to use reliable independent secondary sources. What the article says about the journal, comes solely from its own website (WP:SPS). What the one independent directory source says, conflicts in important ways. We cannot say what is true because there are no independent sources to guide us. It's a supposedly notable journal and we can't verify the most basic facts. The ISSN tracks to a completely different publisher and website in the directories. Guy (Help!) 16:40, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:OR? Please. I haven't written anything in the article based on any conjecture. Databases can be outdated. The current publisher is Allied Academies. It used to be Scientific Publishers. Worldcat (that is your where your ISSN information takes you) is a notoriously bad database when it comes to keeping up to date. I don't know when the journal changed publisher, but I'd guess it's fairly recent (see below). Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:06, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"The part I can not verify is Scientific Publishers of India ever having published it. The website of the apparently relevant firm, [18], shows it as a publisher and distributor and book dealer of books, mainly textbooks, which also distributes but not publishes journals. The journals part of their catalog contains most of the well known Indian journals, published by a number of different publishers, most of which are long established and reputable. They do not currently distribute this journal--nor would they have any reason to, for it is an entirely web-based Open access journal, and they handle paid titles. If Scopus lists them as a publisher of this journal, they are referring to issues prior to v 9, 1991, and may have mistaken the distributor from the publisher. It's not an obvious case of hijacking, there are not two titles, and the information in the article appears valid. (On examining the Allied website, this is one of the more respectable of their journals. Looking at the journal, I've seen much worse. The material is minor, but not ridiculous.). I continue to say keep. DGG ( talk ) 19:09, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Allied Academies guidelines here mention Scientific Publishers of India. Which makes me believe this is some type of imprint, or a rebranding of division of Scientific Publishers of India that happened as some point after 2014. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:16, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And yet, that is the publisher, according to several indexes. And of course we have no idea because there are no independent secondary sources other than Beall. Incidentally, what is your view of the likely merit of a medical journal that's not PubMed indexed? Guy (Help!) 19:13, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It also seems Allied Academies are owned by the same guy that owns OMICS. That's explain a lot about the current lack of reliability of anything surrounding this journal. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:20, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Its Scimago listing uses a slightly different spelling [19]. They confirm its bottom-rank citations and also list the publisher as being Scientific Publishers of India. But this case shows why I'm skeptical of "it's listed in an index" as a notability standard; beyond the fact of their listing, what can you actually say about them? —David Eppstein (talk) 04:17, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Date of establishment, editor(s) in chief, publisher(s), who indexes it, what field it covers, frequency of publications, where the journal stands as far as impact goes, and so on. WP:JWG has more, although in many cases the answer is 'well, it kept the same name, so there's no name change history to detail'. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 04:29, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Scimago does not have those details. It lists as its source http://pediatricresearch.info/ - that website does not exist. About the only thing we can say with confidence is that it exists and has a certain ISSN. Guy (Help!) 09:43, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Scimago doesn't need to have those details. That's why we draw from several sources. http://pediatricresearch.info/ was the old domain, it was moved to http://www.currentpediatrics.com/ at some point, which was redirected to http://www.alliedacademies.org/current-pediatrics/ at some point. This last move is fairly recent, as currentpediatrics.com was still up in July. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 14:10, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Again, textbook WP:OR. Show me a source that says this. Show me a source for change of ownership. Guy (Help!) 14:31, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There is zero WP:OR, only demonstrable facts as demonstrated above. CPR was published by SPI now it's published by AA. There is no need to find a source covering specifically the transfer of ownership, unless we want to make specific claims about the transition. Since we don't have any such sources, we make no such claims. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 18:50, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The closest thing to reliable evidence about this journal is a chain of HTTP 302 messages, which is not a solid foundation for an encyclopedia article.

  • Userfy Fair points. My main thoughts of notability were in reference to the play count (largely soundcloud (about 21 million plays total), which gained a majority of its plays via 8tracks.com, a playlist website), spotify (about 1.5 million plays), and youtube (a few hundred thousand)). In hindsight, I should have refrained from making the article. If the article pops up in the future, I'll let it handle itself organically.

  • Keep There appears to be enough coverage of the singer, [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], etc. to suggest that he is a singer of note in Nagaland and qualifies under WP:MUSICBIO #1 and possibly #7. It is generally more difficult to source a singer from a remoter part of the world, and the fact that he was apparently more popular in the past (1990s) before news articles from such places get regularly archived on the internet made sourcing more difficult. That there is still current coverage of the singer would indicate that he is a singer of some local significance. Hzh (talk)

Top two according to what measure? This is just fluff, just like "HashCash has 100+ enterprises using its products". Unsourced advertising statements. This company has no significant news coverage. --Ysangkok (talk) 18:24, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There are 30+ articles and news coverage of the company that I have come across (could spend more time on the references). Besides US media coverage is not world media coverage. You have to look outside of just coindesk and the names you are familiar with. This company is part of the International Organization for standards committee created to form blockchain standards globally. Regarding 100+ enterprises, I am assuming a company working with major banks wouldn't claim falsely on their website, but again that is my assumption.

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

Per the article itself, the Bulgarians "preferred to retreat without a fight", so there was no battle. There was an Ottoman military operation that recovered Adrianople/Edirne, but there is nothing to suggest that any conflict actually happened here. This should be deleted, as the relevant information is already present, in far better form, in the Second Balkan War article. Constantine 09:06, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I further note that "Second Battle of Adrianople" is a rare name in the literature, at least as determined by GBooks hits. It should also be noted the original redirect of this title was the Battle of Adrianople (378), which is what the handful of GBooks hits would also suggest. The only instance of the title being used for the 1913 event is by Richard J. Evans (!) in one of his books as an image caption, but I would wager good money that this is a result of Wikipedia using the title. Constantine 09:18, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - I agree with the nominator, this should be deleted or re-redirected to the 378 battle. What occurred in 1913 could be written about in depth under the title, "Occupation of Adrianople". If someone wanted to touch up the article a bit with an eye towards a renaming along those lines, I would support that. Also, the idea that this is the "second something" could be based on Enver Pasha calling himself "Second conquerer of Edirne" (the first coming in the 1360s) as a result of the war - but that still doesn't mean this title makes any sense as applied to what happened on July 21, 1913. Smmurphy(Talk) 13:31, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete (or repurpose). The account of the Ottoman intervention in the Second Balkan War is much better given in that article. It might be legitimate to have a separate article on that. We seem to get quite a lot of articles whose function seems to be for the author to use a battles infobox, even in cases where there was a confrontation but no fighting. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:16, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I'm adding a !vote just so that there isn't any confusion that I support a such an outcome. I'm happy with a redirect to the 378 battle, but there is nothing here to merge that isn't in other articles about the Balkan War and anyone searching for the 378 battle is likely to have no problem finding it without a redirect.

Many of the sources linked to in this article are either blogs or do not mention the subject at all. Several of them are clearly self serving and shoehorned in for no apparent purpose (particularly offensive are a number of self publish articles that are included just so the author can claim he has published numerous articles on "a variety of subjects").

  • Keep. Deletion rationale has no merit. Carlson is a World Championship medallist ([36]) and University Boat Race winner ([37]), with plenty of coverage in reliable sources ([38], [39], [40], [41], [42], etc.). --Michig (talk) 07:35, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • A Bronze medal is not notable these days. It might have been in the very first Olympics. Even Gold may not be enough (especially in fringe sport, such as this), you need multiple golds and domination of the activity, possibly over successive Olympics. In any case this article and everything about it reeks of finely crafted promotional work. --BeckenhamBear (talk) 13:44, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The article has the hallmarks of undisclosed paid editing. Hours after their first edit (unrelated), a WP:SPA creates with their second edit this well-formed article with 46 impecably formated references, an infobox, correctly piped links, categories, close compliance with the Manual of Style, etc. Their only other edits, the following week, are to create a disambigution page for the topic. Later on, Greenroomcreative, another SPA, adds a studio portrait. Green Room Creative is a New York City marketing agency that boasts Carlson's company Rowing Blazers as a client.[43] A third SPA comes along and, after a few hours updating this article, submits a draft about the company, Draft:Rowing Blazers. A fourth editor, not quite a SPA, spends 7 of their 16 edits, spread out over five different days spanning nearly a month, to tweak Jack Carlson (rower) and Draft:Rowing Blazers, and link to Carlson from other articles. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:01, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - is clearly promotional work. Material regarding rowing already covered by article detailing with those races (is conspicuous that none of the other rowers on the team with Carlson have personal articles).
  • Keep. The individual covered here is a notable person in the world of fashion as well as rowing and an award-winning author. The page has also been active since 2015 with edits from many different users. In addition to the variety of important publications mentioned above profiling him such as the New York Times, I think it is worth noting that the IP address user 38.104.167.154 has been censured for incorrect and inappropriate edits in the past. --Utraqueunum (talk) 05:28, 9 January 2018 (UTC) Blocked sock.

  • One of those sources is literally the subject's own website. Another, "Hear the Boat Sing" literally bills itself as "This blog covers all aspects of the rich history of rowing".
  • If the Unsigned IP poster would take the time to read WP:IRS, they would find that citing a subject's own website to support a statement that the subject is (for example) a vegetarian (which happens to be the only piece of information citing the subject's website in this article) is actually perfectly acceptable: the statement is not "unduly self-serving;" it is not a "claim about a third party" or "unrelated event;" there is "no reasonable doubt as to its authenticity" (unless the Unsigned IP poster has some evidence to suggest Mr Carlson is not a vegetarian); and "the article is not primarily based on such sources." In fact, the vegetarian statement was the only statement citing the subject's website, and almost all of the other 24 citations are from top-tier news sources, including (it has been said before) The New York Times; the remainder of the sources being composed of official athlete biographies, Henley Royal Regatta and Head of the Charles Regatta official records and results, academic journals, and apparently one blog about rowing that is causing Unsigned IP poster so much distress. The sustained effort by said Unsigned IP poster to misrepresent an objectively well-cited article as one in which "many of the sources are blogs or do not mention the subject at all," combined with their characterization of the subject - a member of multiple USA national teams recently profiled in The New York Times - as a "low profile individual," as well as the bewildering and denigrating comments above stating that, "A Bronze medal is not notable these days. It might have been in the very first Olympics. Even Gold may not be enough (especially in fringe sport, such as this)", seem to belie some personal agenda or bias against the subject.-- Cozyalley111 (talk) 22:44, 9 January 2018 (UTC) Blocked sock.

  • Keep. It seems that the individual described here does have the significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject required under the Notability Guidelines, not just the notability guidelines for sports and athletes, but also for books and for people. --Georgetownhoya (talk) 04:10, 10 January 2018 (UTC) Blocked sock.

  • Just to be a voice of reason here, as it seems there is some bias on both sides. The request for deletion said this article was based on bad sources and that this person is a “low-profile” individual. But this is wrong. The sources are very strong. Major news sources like a full article in New York Times. And as someone (only tangentially) involved in the sport of rowing in another country, I can tell you that this person is prominent in the sport, as both an athlete and an author. The article’s sources confirm this too. I don’t want to get involved in any weirdness. Just a rowing fan who can confirm the subject’s relevance! 2A02:A210:2044:300:9035:89D7:5988:2D14 (talk) 21:47, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but Trim and Significantly Rewrite (disclosure: I was invited to come here through a comment on my Talk page) WP:ATHLETE does not have a specific criteria for rowers. However, in general, the criteria for other non-Olympic sportspersons is that they have won a gold medal at their sports' world championship (if a team sport) or any medal (if an individual sport). If we cross-apply that here, Jack Carlson does not qualify for an article under ATHLETE as he won a bronze medal in a team sport, a view also echoed by BeckenhamBear.
I now move on to see if he meets GNG. Many of the sources in the article are not RS (e.g. blogspot, heartheboatsing.com, etc.). There are, however, many that are (e.g. Wall Street Journal, NY Times, etc.). However, the articles that are RS only cover Jack Carlson within the context of his company Rowing Blazers and do not provide any deep biographical information on him. Even a CEO profile story or two would help validate this article but we don't have that. That said, via a search on Google News I found a couple articles which - while still focused on his company - do provide enough scraps of biographical data here and there to pass the GNG threshold, namely: this in The Observer [44], this in the Boston Globe [45], and this in Complex [46]. If the final decision is KEEP, this article should be substantially rewritten to remove statements supported by non-RS, to introduce new RS sources, and to tone down the rah-rah aspects a bit. A short and succinct bio is warranted, however, the current sprawling article is probably overreach. Chetsford (talk) 06:21, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per the references identified in the preceding post and also by Michig, he passes WP:GNG and the SNG with a bronze medal in a world cup. However the article needs to be carefully checked for neutrality given the SPAs and socks Atlantic306 (talk) 19:08, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect and briefly merge to hand truck, as per BD2412. OK, so a tool exists, but each one needs to meet WP:GNG and be written about in depth by independent sources.

  • Weak Keep. A reasonable WP:BEFORE might be performed before submitting for AfD. On the first page of the gsearch I see this from miniatures.de, a German website. Wargamer.com has this. Neither of these are blogs and both directly detail. Originally these rules were released pre-internet, so most product reviews will be offline. Put this together with the Lowder book and we meet GNG from diverse professional sources independent of the subject. BusterD (talk) 06:29, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    • Comment The subject is a miniatures rules system, like AD&D's Battlesystem or the very popular (and laborious) Johnny Reb (game). So I'd not use "board game" as a disambiguator. I'd prefer "miniatures rules" but think Fire and Fury (game) meets the naming standard best. But It's clear with the new book out we'll need a disambiguation page. I can see why the nominator put this up, though. No hard feelings, Muboshgu, and congratulations on your shiny new mop. Truly. The book will certainly one day be a primary topic and this is such a fringe subject that only game nerds like BOZ and I are familiar. BusterD (talk) 16:41, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • Fair enough! :) I agree that is a fine disambiguator. BOZ (talk) 20:15, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per BusterD, but move it to Fire and Fury (game). The upcoming book Fire and Fury will likely be the primary topic. --Frmorrison (talk) 19:24, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Per my conversation with BusterD at User_talk:Muboshgu#Fire_and_Fury, I'm okay with withdrawing this nom and moving the page to accommodating the new primary topic. (As an aside, while discussing "primary topic", notice that the page views of this article are fairly low, with a serious bump on August 9, 2017. Why might that be? That's because the day before, Trump promised "fire and fury" for North Korea.) – Muboshgu (talk) 21:54, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

None of the entries on this page is really disambiguating "Muy". There are variations like de Muy, Le Muy, Félix du Muy, and Muy Muy, but it doesn't seem likely that these topics would be looked up solely by "Muy", and certainly aren't routinely known by the name "Muy" alone. The two May Rivers don't belong, nor do the three phrases in Spanish in the Other section that happen to begin with the Spanish word "muy".

I can't figure out what this is supposed to be? A book? A collection of poems? A single poem? The article is mostly a debate over who authored the book.

  • Hi AngusWOOF, the references available on Google Books and the references available within the article are enough to qualify the subject over WP:GNG and even WP:NBOOK. This is a much quoted historical text (prosody). I've now given the wiki link inside the article. I do understand your point that the article needs to be cleaned up. But in my opinion, deletion is not the solution for cleaning up. This seems a Keep to me. If you agree, I'll start cleaning up the article and will make it tighter. What do you say? Thanks, Lourdes 03:25, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Would you be amenable to cleaning it up in draft? The book references aren't clear at all. It's still not clear what it is. A prosody could mean a study on poetry, setting poetry to music. So is it a book of poems? Or a single poem? AngusWOOF (barksniff) 04:50, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Current article as is written does not provide any context or reasoning for the page to exist. The references provided are passive mentions and does not establish notability. As suggested by AgnusWOOF the article can me moved to draft or deleted. Hagennos (talk) 05:29, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It is now a basic comprehensible overview/introduction, acceptable for Wikipedia. The topic is a notable ancient work of the Telugu literature. Thanks to User:Lourdes for his/her constructive attitude - a great example of how an encyclopedist should approach problems in an encyclopedia. Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 16:27, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The WP:TNT on the article does help clarify things a little, but is it a treatise on how Telugu poetry is structured or a list of poems? Or both? Some of the references provided do not mention this particular work, but Telugu prosody in general. If there are multiple names or spellings for the work, they should be listed. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 16:54, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to be a collection of poems ("...Malliya Rechana, the Jaina author of the early work on Telugu metrics named Kavijanasrayam states in one of the introductory verses that he could accomplish that work with assistance rendered to him by certain Vachak-abharana..."[47]) but maybe the theory and poetry could work together in Telugu literature. I don't say the article is perfect but I think it is a good starting point providing some useful and reliable references to a reader. Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 17:10, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Angus, in my study, it comes out to be a book that tells the rules – in other words, the Metre (poetry) – of how verses should be formed in Telugu poetry. The wiki link of Metre that I've provided gives sufficient clarification on what is the meaning of these so called rules that the book is based on. Thanks, Lourdes 22:56, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This article Kavijanasrayam deserves to exist since this is the oldest available piece of Telugu literature and many poets followed this book.By referring this book,scholars such as Charles Philip Brown wrote a book in English on Telugu prosodic techniques. The techniques can be added eventually to this article by other editors.

I think the direction of the article changed because one of the editors(SubhashiniIyer) was continously disrupting the page based on these aspects.

1) Jain Origins and 2) Nativity of the poet 3) Antiquity (940 AD)

The editor(Abrahmad111) has provided groundbreaking evidences from Telugu books on the above aspects.The editor who disrupted initially is shell shocked from the past 5 months and not even a single evidence has been challenged.The prejudiced and unintellectual editor 1)cannot tolerate the fact that Jain religion Telugu literature preceded Vedic religion Telugu Literature. It is a kind of religious intolerance extended to wikipedia.2) wanted the poet to belong to her home state(province) 3) cannot tolerate any Telugu Literature to be placed before 1050 AD since she assumes that all literature started after 1050 AD only after poet Nannaya, who belonged to her home state(province) .

Now that these biases were totally disproved,we can move those aspects to the talk page or retain them in a concise form in the actual page

Telugu evidences 1 2 3

English references 4 5 6

Finally,the editor(Abrahmad111) was blocked based on only suspicion of sock puppetry but not proven.What is more important is the evidence he left.SattiPandu (talk) 18:34, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Prior to the TNT, the article was all about debating the authorship, which should have taken place on the talk page. If the debate was among scholars and not the editors, then a section summarizing the debate supported with secondary sourced news articles could be provided. But it was a complete mess at the time of the AFD. As for poets following the book, there could be a Legacy section discussing how later poets have referred to the book as a template for their writings. But at this point, it needs significant coverage WP:SIGCOV in secondary sources first to show notability. If it's indeed the oldest piece of Telugu literature, the article needs references from secondary sources to support that. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 18:48, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep If a book has survived for over a thousand years, it's notable. XOR'easter (talk) 19:30, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes ! It should have been in a talk page.Unfortunately not done because editor(SubhashiniIyer) directly put the discussion on the page.Please see the history from the start.Where as ALL scholars call it a JAIN work, she just puts her personal opinions that is NOT a Jain WORK.Where as editor(Abrahmad111) provided Central Sahitya Academy reference, P.V.P Sastry,C.P.Brown,Nidudavolu Venkat Rao,Veturi Prabhakara Sastry,Chaganti Seshayya,S.V.Rama Rao and many more references.The editor (SubhashiniIyer) wants us to believe her opinion and reject Central Sahitya Academy run by govt of India and all references which are not inline with her biased mindset...

With regards to the earliest available Telugu Literature so far.. Mallia Rec 9th century poet Malliya Rechana-First Telugu Author (940AD) , Kavijanasrayam,Vemulawada Karimnagar,

With regards to Jain origins, the English links are self explanatory.. Jainism: art, architecture, literature & philosophy Jain literature. All scholars call it a JAIN work.Show me ONE author which calls it a non-JAIN work?.Please refer the Telugu links as well.

Books won't survive for 1000 years.They are copied and copied by generation after generation. Kavijanasrayam is available in 50 copies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SattiPandu (talkcontribs) 19:34, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine if you want to add back the Jain phrase. The 50 copies needs to be sourced, but that's a later detail. The English source for C.P. Brown only uses it as a passing mention along with another work. Are there any other texts that give it significant coverage? Can you confirm from the Telugu references presented, since the English ones so far have it as passing mention? AngusWOOF (barksniff) 19:59, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]


You have removed the earlier content and references. 40 copies are available. Please check with some one who knows Telugu Unfortunately no english ref is available for this..

Article sourced to routine news about the show, interviews, and passing mentions. Does not meet WP:NACTOR. The article was deleted in 2015, as not meeting notability guidelines, only achieving top 4 in the show. The subject has not done anything significant since then, so I recommend deletion at this time, in line with the first AfD. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:46, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: she was certainly well known in early hip hop circles – she made her single in 1979 at the very beginnings of hip hop's breakthrough into the mainstream, and then hosted a radio show in her native Philadelphia. Her recent sacking from the station has made it into the Philadelphia Inquirer [48] and a Google Books search will show she's been name-checked in several books about hip hop [49], [50], [51], [52]. She was also editor-in-chief of Word Up! magazine for a while. I'd understand if other editors consider that one single and a local radio show isn't enough to pass notability, and it is difficult to find non-internet sources, but she is definitely a respected name within hip hop.

Can you elaborate on "prestigious faculty position"? This is one of the criteria in PROF, but I don't see that he holds a named chair, distinguished title, or other official designation that would qualify. Agricola44 (talk) 18:58, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
He's been a research chair, department fellow, and is a prof at a prestiguous Uni. Queen's University. His influential status and roles along with his work and substantial coverage establish his notability. FloridaArmy (talk) 19:21, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Fellow" is generally a junior title and "professor" is not notable per se. "Research chair" is not a standard title, unless you are perhaps referring to Canada Research Chair. Does he hold this designation? Agricola44 (talk) 21:00, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. After some amount of checking, it has become clear that the subject is not a Canada Research Chair. Several institutional and personal webpages list a "Fulbright Visiting Chair", which is presumably what FloridaArmy has referred to as a "research chair". The Fulbright web page indicates it is an application-based program that facilitates 1-semester educational exchanges for Canadian scholars wishing to visit a US institution. As such, it is clearly not an award that satisfies PROF #2. Agricola44 (talk) 16:05, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lot of references, quotes and reliance on his views as a tax expert and his writings and scholarship on tax havens and tax. here are some examples.

The result was soft delete. WP:REFUND applies. One major problem for source-finding is that this series was released under different names for different markets. In French, it was Le Monde de Pahé. In Portuguese, it was Como Irmãos, etc etc. I tried to pillage the interlanguage links for sources, but nobody else has anything reliable we can use.

I'm confident it existed based on the clips I've found, but the utter lack of sources means we can't support an article about it. Refund absolutely applies if sources are located. ♠PMC(talk) 14:30, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A separate Wikipedia article listing the episodes of Chapo Trap House? Chapo Trap House barely meets the notability requirements. A list of episodes for this podcast surely doesn't? Snooganssnoogans (talk) 18:17, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Snooganssnoogans, hope you're well. I don't see a reason for deletion given in your nomination statement. I do understand your opinion that you don't wish a separate list. In my view, Chapo Trap House seems notable enough and including the list within that article would editorially elongate the article beyond requirement. Per WP:LISTN, "Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability". However, the list of Chapo Trap episodes itself seems notable as various episodes have been discussed in Medium, Paste magazine (check the material before the interview), Washington Post and others. As per WP:LISTN again, "The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been." I personally feel this qualifies on LISTN and should be a Keep, both for informational purposes and for pure notability reasons. What do you think? Warmly, Lourdes 03:13, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm unfamiliar with Wikipedia policy when it comes to lists, so I'll heed the advice of more knowledgable users. There does seem to be a precedent for listing episodes for podcasts if the podcasts themselves cross the threshold of notability. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 03:26, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Snooganssnoogans. You could leave a note at the top of this Afd that you are withdrawing the nomination. Warmly again, Lourdes 03:35, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fails the criteria for establishing notability. Some references are from reliable sources but they are not independent of the subject and do not contain independent analysis and/or opinion. Fails WP:NCORP. -- HighKing++ 20:54, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I have re-written the profile to be more encyclopedic and less newsletter-y like it had become before. Hi @HighKing: do take a look and let me know if you're satisfied. Igwatala (talk) 21:19, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Igwatala, it is less advertorial in tone now, but there are no indications of notability and the only purpose to have an article is to promote the cause. I nominated the article because it requires two intellectually independent references in order to meet the criteria for notability and this article has none. Every reference is a PRIMARY source, either directly published by the organization or its an interview with Philip - those references fail WP:ORGIND. -- HighKing++ 13:30, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep It has enough sources in its 14 references to show notability. --Frmorrison (talk) 20:01, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It seems to me that the keep lines (both experienced editors) are not addressing Wikipedia:Notability and WP:ORGIND. There's no evidence of "partner organization" status, and that's not the guideline anyway: Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not here to tell the world about your noble cause. Of the 14 alleged sources, 9 are written by Efiwe.org, of which 3 are the same press release deliberately cited from different websites; the other 5 are local to towns around Southern Illinois University Edwardsville:
    1. local: The Telegraph is near SIUE (and also filled with abusive JavaScript, link spam inserted visibly in some pages, and scam ads like "Login to Your Account" to a website that wants you to tell them your e-mail account and password).
    2. local: The Edwardsville Intelligencer is near SIUE
    3. local: Alestle is SIUE's own newspaper
    4. self: The Ktravula article is labeled "For Immediate Release" — it's a direct press release from Efiwe.org
    5. self: RiverBender.com is local coverage in Alton/Edwardsville, and is a direct copy of the same press release from Efiwe.org
    6. local: The Edwardsville Intelligencer is near SIUE
    7. self: Efiwe.org main website
    8. self: Efiwe.org Facebook post
    9. self: Efiwe.org's Instagram
    10. self: Efiwe'org's Twitter
    11. self: Efiwe.org's LinkedIn
    12. self: Philip Alabi's own prose, and no evidence of editorial control: "We tell your story as you want it to be told."
    13. local: Belleville News-Democrat is near SIUE
    14. self: same press release again, marked "Content is submitted and reviewed before posting on STLtoday.com, but not verified for accuracy." and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch is arguably near SIUE
Making 1 press release look like 3 independent sources isn't a good sign. --Closeapple (talk) 13:37, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've added a new source that isn't based in/around Edwardsville and isn't derived from the press release. Igwatala (talk) 04:08, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The social media references will need to go, but there is now coverage on two continents. scope_creep (talk) 09:24, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • The social media links have been removed. It looks good to me too. Igwatala (talk) 11:12, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per sources such as Nigeria News that have been addded to the article and the likelihood of further African coverage showing this is more than a local interest project Atlantic306 (talk).

The YouTube link shows a segment from The Big Ten Network's live broadcast, with Anthony 'Spice' Adams giving "DJ R3DLINE" a shout out.

Hello Zemith, YouTube is an unreliable source and cannot count towards addressing notability concerns. None of the other sources you mention are either reliable or discuss the subject significantly. Do you have reliable sources that discuss DJ R3DLINE significantly? If you need help in understanding Wikipedia's notability guidelines, please feel free to ask.
