List of Power Ranger races[edit]

Fails WP:NOTPLOT. Nothing in this article isn't already incorporated (or even can't already be incorporated) in some form in the other Power Rangers pages. Since most nun-human characters in Power Rangers have only appeared in a single season, are one-off characters, one-off group of characters, or are the only member of their race to appear, there's no way this page can be expanded in such a manner that listing every single race would actually be useful. The creation of this standalone article is essentially a copy of what's already stated in the character lists and is more suitable for the Power Rangers Wikia. —Mythdon 23:46, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable musician, fails WP:NMUSIC. Meets none of the criteria set out on the policy page. A quick search using multiple terms shows a mess of trivial social media links, and close to zero independent verifiable sources. Hiàn (talk) 23:18, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. He is responsible for one of my favourite progressive house remixes of all time (his remix of Max Graham's "Tell You"), but apart from a brief period in the mid-2000s when he was popular in progressive house circles, he hasn't ever been a big name, even in dance music. The two mix albums mentioned in the article and a handful of singles are the only things he's produced, and none of them have got anywhere near charting. Mr. Fair has scaled back his DJ career to concentrate on web development, and rarely plays outside Toronto these days, so scope for improving this article in future is going to be very limited.

  • Delete Mr. Fair does not appear to have received substantive coverage in independent reliable sources, and thus fails the basic WP:GNG. There is no specific claim to notability, and nothing to indicate any special circumstances under WP:MUSICBIO. --Bejnar (talk) 03:24, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have reliable source coverage about him to carry the article — but even on a ProQuest search, I got a mix of glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things, and tangential name matches to a non-notable house league soccer player in a suburban pennysaver. As always, it's not what an article says that determines whether it gets to stay around here or not, it's how well the article references what it says.

A mix of WP:OR and BLP violations. I'm referring this for deletion based on an WP:ANI thread. power~enwiki (π, ν) 22:37, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - Was this the ANI thread you are talking about? PackMecEng (talk) 22:40, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep; we don't delete obviously notable topics just because one of the editors involved is problematic. I wouldn't object to reverting to the version before Perspex started editing it and pretending the last month didn't happen. ‑ Iridescent 22:42, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think the contents of that revision regarding Donald Trump Jr. are still likely a BLP violation. has been accused by mainstream media of being either a believer in the conspiracy,[87] or pretending to be an advocate for political gain is both bad writing, and a clear attempt to smear somebody. power~enwiki (π, ν) 22:55, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Per Iridescent. Notable enough, as usual we have to be careful about BLP implications; the article can be fixed. —PaleoNeonate – 22:48, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, but narrow focus. As it currently stands, the article documents two different conspiracy theories: (A) Whites are being oppressed in "predominantly white countries, or supposedly white-founded countries" (plural). (B) The South African government has a plan to seize land from white farmers. The problem with combining theories A and B into a single article is that it contains a long list of White genocide conspiracy theory#Advocates and alleged advocates. Some people are included in this list because they believe in B, but since the lede defines A as the topic of the article, the clear implication is that the folks on the list believe A. That violates BLP policy. — Lawrence King (talk) 22:59, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment as nom the original article (circa 2015) was about the meme "white genocide"; whether this refers to any specific theory is a later addition. It has since evolved into a catch-all. If there is a theory (or far more likely, several theories) that can be described without making any BLP violations, go for it. Otherwise, the page should be deleted. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:00, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Lawrence King: - one problem is that this term appears to mean something very different in South Africa than it does in the United States. Based on one Trump tweet, there is a cottage industry trying to imply that they mean the same thing. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:08, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Fair enough. However, it seems to me that a Wikipedia article can focus on one meaning of a term even if that term has other meanings. More importantly, the name of this page is not "White genocide", but rather "White genocide conspiracy theory". So even if the former is used in different ways in different countries, is the latter term used in multiple ways?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Lawrence King (talkcontribs)

  • Draftify. I have no doubt that an article on this subject could be done. I'm less sure that we should even start with this article as a base. There is so many BLP problems in this article that trying to fix it may take more time than just starting over from scratch. Either way, I think it should be moved to draft while the substantial problems with the content of the article get worked out, so I suggest we WP:DRAFTIFY it. If we do keep it, I do think a substantial revert to a prior version would be required. -Obsidi (talk) 23:37, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • If there's a consensus to re-purpose this to just be about South Africa, and to put content about The Great Replacement conspiracy theory (which is also a "white genocide conspiracy theory") or white-nationalism in other articles, I'll withdraw this. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:21, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Came across this a while back. It was started by a now-indeffed user with some problematic content. Since then, multiple more experienced editors have made improvements. I haven't had a chance to review the recent flurry of activity, but worst come to worst it can be rolled way back. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:38, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy[edit]

Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

I could not find any independent, reliable, secondary sources. Searching JSTOR gave zero results, and EBSCO found four articles, but all four were written by its inventor. The article may be a WP:COPYVIO because it restates the content of the treatment model found in copyrighted material, in the same level of detail. For example, the section Treatment Structure and Targets states how to administer this therapy. It is a close paraphrase of copyrighted material from the American Journal of Psychotherapy, including specific details like the number of weeks of therapy and duration of each session. (See Lynch, Thomas R.; Hempel, Roelie J.; Dunkley, Christine (2015). "Radically Open-Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Disorders of Over-control: Signaling Matters". American Journal of Psychotherapy. 69 (2): 149. Retrieved 23 September 2018.)

The article also appears to violate WP:SPIP. A significant number of the sources are authored by the inventor of this therapy, and User:TenZero10, who created the article, has a self-identified COI for being on a student committee for the company that promotes the use of this therapy, which pays students up to $1,000 to perform research that supports their theories. The section Training and consultation is an obvious WP:PLUG for the company, which sells the inventor's book.

Thank you for your review of this nomination. Romhilde (talk) 21:52, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Promotional article crerated by a single purpose, CoI editor, likely the same individual whose original name was RODBT. The name of that editor was blocked two days earlier for appearing to represent a group, organization or website. RODBT was also a single purpose account which had created the article Thomas R. Lynch, the promulgator of this therapy. I think Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy is grossly promotional and should be speedily deleted under G11. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:24, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Hella promotional in style and content, obvious COI issues, lack of coverage independent of originator, overly detailed. Clearly should not be covered by someone with a buck to turn or a reputation to make on the strength of it. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:13, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge with Dialectical behavior therapy, since it is related to that. Leo1pard (talk) 16:58, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, no merge, no redirect, This isn't a compelling search term for Dialectical behavior therapy, and this article has nothing to add to Dialectical behavior therapy. --Bejnar (talk) 03:27, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Notability isn't inherited. There are no in-depth references on this organization that meets WP:CORPDEPTH. HighKing++ 21:04, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete While some funded lawsuits have notability, that does not give the Liberty Justice Center notability. Mentions of the center are in passing when covering the legal cases. As the nominator said, there seems to be no in depth coverage of the center itself. Lacking notability under the guidelines is a reasonable basis for deletion. There is no information need that such an article might fill, beacuse there is no significant information available in reliable sources. --Bejnar (talk) 21:34, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Almost all the cited work is extremely minor; for the one significant case, they were only one of the great many organizations involved. I do not see evidence that it was one of their attorneys that participated in the oral argument--and , if so, it would contribute to the notability of that attorney, not of them.

BEFORE search doesn't seem to turn up anything like independent reporting. The one Times of India reference might be considered a notability reference, but it's a fairly brief profile including quotes from the founder. See also WP:Articles for deletion/MRSS India. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 20:46, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as it does not meet the minimum coverage of the WP:CORPDEPTH guideline. I could write a specific analysis for each citation currently in the article and expalin why it is not considered a good source for notability, but suffice it to say that rehashed press releases and quotations from company members do not qualify. Just because a company is listed does not make it notable, it still needs to meet the guidelines. --Bejnar (talk) 21:59, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

None of the references appear to be independent notabilty references. Perhaps Redirect to parent company Majestic MRSS if that article can survive. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 20:37, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Much of the cited sources are basically rehashed news releases from the company. There appears to be a claim to notability in that it is the largest independent marketing research company in India. However, it is unclear what independent menas there, since it is a subsidiary of Majestic MRSS. There does not seem to be adequate coverage under the WP:CORPDEPTH guideline to provide notability for either MRSS India or Majestic MRSS.

  • Oppose Keep: Not at all equal. The ASMLA distanced itself from the 2018 Ahvaz military parade attack through its official webpage and this was relayed by WP:RS. Ahvaz National Resistance is likely a subgroup that was ejected from ASMLA in 2015 and went on to claim the 22 August 2018 terrorist attack.

*Redirect to Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of Ahwaz.

  • Keep Though I understand that the recent attack constitutes a large portion of this article, which means there are legitimate concerns that it's focusing primarily on an event rather than those involved in the event, and it seems to be an organization related to the ASMLA, I would argue that this organization demonstrably has enough notability to warrant an article. As a reader first and an editor second, when a major attack is carried out by a then little-known group, I expect a place to read about them, regardless of how this young article is not in good shape. Furthermore, we shouldn't merge it into ASMLA when that article itself is quite short, and we'd establish a coatrack where half the article on the ASMLA is about a splinter group that is effectively separate from it.

  • Do not Delete This "Silver Screen for Short Film" is very popular event occurring on every 2nd Wednesday of month consistently for last 29 month without fail. Each event is almost houseful and successfully celebrated by local filmmakers in Tampa bay area and beyond. Every month few filmmakers are even attending from out of state and gave very good reviews on social media and filmfreeway. Considering its popularity, acceptance, and supports, the board of director of the non-profit organization - SSSF Foundations, Inc, recently decided to expand it to go for its first annual film festival for short, documentary & feature films on 24 -26 May, 2019. An organizing committee is formed and is working on it. The annual film festival will happen every year in last weekend of May while monthly short film festival will still continue every month on 2nd Wednesday. I am not a good writer or editor and don't know perfectly how to write certain paragraphs and how to give the references. If any points or lines need to edited, anyone can edit in proper way or those few lines if not properly referenced can be deleted but I don't think, the whole page should be deleted as this is a REAL EVENT HAPPENING FOR LAST 29 MONTHS AND STILL ALIVE.[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ap florida (talkcontribs) 18:19, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to fail WP:GNG with only WP:ROUTINE mentions, and every time it is in coverage of another team that happened to play them. The page was created under the assumption that, as they were playing in a self-professed professional league, that they too were a professional team that would receive significant independent coverage. However, they appear to have mainly been a travel-only team that played professional teams, while being itself semi-pro, hence why there appears to be no actual coverage this team in any of its incarnations. Neither name turns up significant coverage as Maryland or Washington (Washington Eagles is extremely hard to search due to very common usage, but nothing SIGCOV of this one turned up). This article sums up their existence "the Washington Eagles, exists solely to play when another team can’t make it to the game, McCarthy said". Yosemiter (talk) 16:24, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete semi-pro football teams typically do not qualify for inclusion because they tend to not have enough coverage to surpass WP:GNG or any other notability measure. That seems to be the case here as well. There are exceptions such as Pittsburgh Colts, Oklahoma Thunder, and a few others. This team does not seem to be one of those exceptions based on a lack of coverage. A long time ago we had a discussion about semi-pro teams that may be relevant.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:26, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep A google news search is insufficient. WP:BEFORE states that "The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects." In this case, a full search soon turns up plenty of evidence that this is a mature and respected newspaper. Andrew D. (talk) 09:42, 26 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, I guess The encyclopedia hardly benefits from sub-stubs like this one, but the topic is definitely notable enough that a decent article could be written. Whether this is ever going to happen is a different matter (I trust WBG's record, but am a bit more skeptical of Andrew's, and neither is technically obliged to do anything about it anyway), and whether the topic would be better covered in a List of Tamil newspapers (the most interesting source I found was this one) or some such pending such a hypothetical future expansion is a different matter again, but the nominator here is talking about notability, and they are wrong on that front. Hijiri 88 (やや) 03:32, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • No, that journal article is a Q&A interview in which he's speaking about himself. So it's fine for supplementary verification of facts after GNG has already been covered off, but it does absolutely nothing to assist the initial satisfaction of GNG in the first place because people do not get to self-talk or self-write themselves over GNG. And the book does very little either; it just gives him a very brief biographical blurb in a section of the book that contains brief biographical blurbs of dozens of animators, in a format that we would have called "listicle" if it had been published to a website instead of in a paper book. So again, fine for supplementary verification of facts if there were a lot more solid and substantial sourcing alongside it, but not the magic golden key to a GNG pass in and of itself. Bearcat (talk) 15:26, 28 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Monsieur Pointu (film), without prejudice against recreation if somebody can locate better sources than I've been able to. One of his films getting an Oscar nomination is certainly a valid notability claim in principle for a filmmaker, but it's still not an automatic inclusion freebie that exempts him from having to actually have any solid sourcing that goes beyond simply being able to cite routine film directories as technical verification that he existed. For starters, he was not the sole director of the film — he was one of two co-directors, and his colleague does not have a Wikipedia article at all. So if literally the only thing we can actually say or source about him is the fact that one of his films got an Oscar nomination, and the film already has its own article which says the same thing anyway, then that's grounds for his name to exist as a redirect to the article about his one notable film rather than grounds for a standalone article about him as a separate topic from the film. That said, I have access to far fewer newspapers for the purposes of digging out coverage that might have existed in the 1960s and 1970s (the period in which the bulk of his work, and his peak notability claim, exist) than I do from 1980 forward — there might have been much more coverage in Quebec newspapers than I have the ability to locate, so recreation would be acceptable if somebody can actually find evidence of that. But if all we can actually say or source about him is what's already here, then a redirect to the film conveys exactly the same information anyway.

Article has recently existed both here and at The Witcher (U.S. TV series), but was moved to draft at Draft:The Witcher (TV series) as production has not yet commenced on the series. Television series where no filming has occurred, or only a pilot has been ordered, do not typically received articles by the WP:CONSENSUS of WP:TV, in the same fashion as WP:NFF. Information available on this article can easily be moved to The Witcher#Film and television article/section until production actually commences, which, as far as I can tell, has already occurred. Neither the draft nor article currently provide further specific or detailed information, and the article also currently consists of speculated information. -- AlexTW 08:44, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete From the article: No broadcast date has been announced. Hissrich at one time speculated on a 2020 release, but later retracted that statement. At best this article is WP:CRYSTAL. It may never air. When the series creator can't even speculate on a release date you know there are problems. I concur with AlexTheWhovian's assessment. --AussieLegend () 09:04, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, as creator. The topic meets WP:GNG because of substantial coverage in reliable sources as shown through the references in the article. In view of the GNG, whether or not production has begun is irrelevant (although it clearly has, since people are being cast.) WP:TV is a project and not a community-adopted guideline. Sandstein 09:48, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
And why can the content not be listed in the section listed as above in the parent article? "Production beginning" means the commencement of principal photography, as per the related guideline also linked above, and you've been unable to cover either that nor the speculation in the article on the air date violating WP:CRYSTAL. What's the point in having WP:TV if it's not used to maintain some level of standard in television articles? Shall we ignore them for whatever article we personally choose? -- AlexTW 09:52, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There's no "point in having WP:TV" as far as I'm concerned. It's just a WikiProject made up by some people. It does not represent wider community consensus. Only properly adopted guidelines and policies do that, and WP:GNG is one of them. It says we can make articles on topics that have received substantial coverage in reliable sources, as is the case here, which you do not contest. Sandstein 11:36, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WP:CRYSTAL is policy, and that applies here. WP:NFF, which is referenced by WP:CRYSTAL, applies to TV as well as films and it says Films that have not been confirmed by reliable sources to have commenced principal photography should not have their own articles, as budget issues, scripting issues and casting issues can interfere with a project well ahead of its intended filming date. That also applies here. --AussieLegend () 11:46, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Sandstein, your personal opinion on the WikiProject has been noted; however, WikiProjects exist in the dozens on almost every major topic, so that editors can gather to discuss articles in the same category, and partake in discussions about them and gain consensus' on standard practices. They exist no matter if you like them or not - if you want to get rid of them, take it elsewhere, else respect them and the editors in them. And I do dispute it - a few sources on a few topics does not necessarily satisfy GNG, it has certainly not received "substantial coverage", and it doesn't satisfy it enough to have a separate article, especially when all of the content can be included in the parent article on the book series. You still cannot answer the questions on the principal photography, for which the Film WikiProject actually uses WP:NFF (yes, an actual guideline, as you like to point out, and as already pointed out by myself and Aussie above), or speculative content in the article. -- AlexTW

There is already agreement between multiple editors that it fails GNG, and that NFF does apply in its principal photography clause. -- AlexTW 14:05, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't suggest that the band was not notable.

  • Strong Delete If anything, the nominator's statement "lacks WP:MEDRS" understates the severity of the problem. Medicine is a subject where garbled statements of archaic ideas can be actively harmful. There's a way to write encyclopedically about how the understanding of schizophrenia developed historically, but this is not it. WP:TNT. XOR'easter (talk) 18:52, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as a notable concept from the earlier days of psychiatry. The demand for WP:MEDRS is completely out of place as the topic is in the history of medicine – we wouldn't, say, delete Bloodletting because there aren't enough double-blind placebo-controlled studies of its efficacy. – Uanfala (talk) 20:46, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Most of the content refers to an archaic usage of the term "autism" as a symptom of schizophrenia, ascribed to Eugen Bleuler. That belongs in the History of schizophrenia article, not in a stand-alone article where readers will arrive who are looking for "autism symptoms" only to be confused by what they find here. For me, it's fifth in the list when searching Wikipedia for "autism symptoms" and it ought to be ninety-fifth for all its relevance to the search term. --RexxS (talk) 23:30, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The article fails WP:LISTN as there is no WP:SIGCOV that supercentenarians from Africa are notable as a group. The article also runs afoul of WP:NOTWEBHOST since it is being used to house a WP:SYNTH of the GRG's data tables in a format they apparently don't want to take the time to create or manage themselves. It should be noted that there is only one source in this article under WP:GNG, since all six citations are to the same group. It should also be noted the article was recreated by banned editor User:Waenceslaus. Newshunter12 (talk) 00:33, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This article has been AFD'd thrice before and has been kept all three times. The main reasons cited for the retention in the last discussion are reasons (such as the fact all the other continents have equivalent lists) that are still valid. -- John M Wolfson (talk) 01:02, 23 September 2018 (UTC) [reply]

Your assertions are entirely untrue. The article was deleted twice before and neither North America nor Asia have continent level articles either. Newshunter12 (talk) 01:07, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies, I only checked the third nomination. However, with the third nomination some of the main arguments for retention was that the GRG had become a reliable source and that all the other continents have similar lists. (Which they technically do, although I agree that North American and Asian articles leave much to be desired, the latter being a redirect to a Japan's list.) Given that these facts still hold, and that at least a couple of other continents and other such geographic areas as countries have similar lists that are uncontroversial, my Keep vote stands. -- John M Wolfson (talk) 06:12, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Upon further research, it seems that some of those arguments were advanced by the discredited User:Waenceslaus. Having said that, from what I understand "List of supercentenarians from Geographic Area X" articles do tend to be notable, and Africa is an obvious choice for a geographic area. It also doesn't have any more-obvious sub-areas (like Asia w/ Japan or North America w/ the US) to compile such a list. I also don't think it's a SYNTH violation, given WP:These are not original research#Compiling facts and information, although I'm fairly new to Wikipedia and can be mistaken. Sorry for double posting, but I just wanted to state my position a bit more clearly. --John M Wolfson (talk) 06:29, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for revising your argument after realizing your mistake. You have put a lot more thought into your posts when proven incorrect at first then most people do. The actual List of North American supercentenarians page was eliminated [1] via a redirect to the page you listed above, as was the Asian list to the Japanese list. So those continent pages don't exist anymore as standalone articles like this one presently does. The main issue with this article is WP:LISTN for their isn't WP:SIGCOV in third party sources demonstrating that African supercentenarians as a group are a notable topic. Sources such as the Washington Post or the BBC don't ever cover this topic, which please note is separate from individuals getting some coverage. Articles like this were created by people from the GRG and longevity fans (User:Waenceslaus was someone affiliated with the GRG - if you look at the second nomination, the now Wikipedia banned GRG head Robert Young edited under Ryoung122). This and a great many other longevity articles were created by people either as a hobby or with an off-wiki agenda like free hosting and distribution of the GRG's data. This has famously (at least in this project) been a source of numerus battles over the years as such articles are attempted to be rooted out and offending editors get banned. The topic of African SC's as a group is simply not notable with reliable sources and even if some other continents rightly or wrongly have articles, each article by policy must stand or fall on its own merits. This one falls. Newshunter12 (talk) 07:45, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. After some more thought I've decided to change my vote to Redirect per Frayæ. --John M Wolfson (talk) 15:46, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Neither North America nor Asia have continent articles like this anymore so how is there bias against Africa in getting rid of this article? Your keepist argument is blatantly false and is of no substance in this AfD. Newshunter12 (talk) 08:55, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • The North American equivalent is Lists of North American supercentenarians. I'm not sure what's happened to the Asian equivalent but we clearly need something similar there too. The problem is clearly that people keep trying to delete this stuff and so it's then hard to get a stable and sensible structure. See WP:INSPECTOR. My !vote stands. Andrew D. (talk) 09:05, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, the actual North American article was redirected to that disambiguation page via [1] and the Asian page was redirected here [2] because almost every person on it was Japanese, so it was pointlessly redundant. Newshunter12 (talk) 09:31, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - two incomplete lists (as stated in the article) supported by only one source. Can't be kept in its current status, and either way it screams original research. ׺°”˜`”°º×ηυηzια׺°”˜`”°º× 08:48, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This list is clearly part of a set covering the globe. As there is no duplication of coverage this selective deletion attempt does appear to be systemic bias as Africa would become the only region not listed. The corresponding lists in other regions are much the same. For reference the other corresponding list sourced in the same way are; Europe, Oceania, South America, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, United States. Perhaps a group nomination should be considered, otherwise it is notable as part of an overall set of notable lists. I have decided on another option. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 09:44, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not an argument to avoid deletion. By policy, each and every article on Wikipedia must stand or fall on its own merits. Whether other pages should or should not exist has no bearing on this discussion. The corresponding North America and Asia list articles were both redirected so there is clearly not any discrimination going on either. Also, many of the entries on these two lists are found on other lists so there is duplication. Newshunter12 (talk) 09:51, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. I will create a new list. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 10:01, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Could you please give a policy based argument as to why this particular article should be kept? Thank you. Newshunter12 (talk) 10:13, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it meets WP:NOTESAL as a valid list per WP:LISTPURP. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 10:20, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, it doesn't. There are no reliable third party sources (not even the GRG) that demonstrate through WP:SIGCOV that African supercentenarians as a group are a notable topic. It utterly fails WP:NOTESAL. Newshunter12 (talk) 10:37, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That is reasonable. I have stuck my vote after writing a new list. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 10:48, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I have editorially merged all remaining continental lists of supercentenarians into List of supercentenarians by continent. That includes this article. I recommend a redirect to preserve attribution. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 11:00, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect per Frayae. » Shadowowl | talk 13:49, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fails WP:LISTN as no sources discuss or demonstrate "<continent> supercentenarians" is a notable topic. All six references go to GRG tables which while doing nothing to demonstrate notability as they are just a big bunch of names in a table, also don't have any continental lists on their website. Will also point out most of the arguments from the previous AFD centered on WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, WP:INTERESTING and WP:USEFUL and there was also clearly some canvassing from the 110 club forum. CommanderLinx (talk) 12:03, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per CommanderLinx. The current sources only confirm that the topic exists, not that it is any way notable or encyclopedic (at least by Wikipedia's standards). WP:N requires that the topic itself be covered in multiple, non-trivial, reliable, third-party sources in order to demonstrate its notability, which is not the case here. If there were news articles, scientific studies, etc. on the topic of African supercentenarians, then I might !vote keep, but as it stands, I do not see any.

The article currently fails WP:NTOUR, as it just consists of routine coverage and a list of tour dates.

  • Keep or move to main article: NOTDIR is wholly irrelevant here - this isn't an arbitrary list, but a cohesive set. I moved the listing from the main article because it was taking up a lot of space; it can be moved back there (without the ELs if necessary) if you think that's preferable. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 21:02, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • But it is a directory ... of bus routes and timetable, and there is nothing pertaining to notability of the routes. Ajf773 (talk) 04:48, 16 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep - Based on this category, it looks like a pretty common kind of list, and especially since the system is pretty small (and singular), there's going to be some coverage in regional media. Don't have a strong opinion about merging (to the RIPTA article, presumably), but it seems like stand-alone works. Not keen on the column with external links (WP:EL), but that's not necessarily relevant to this AfD. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 21:16, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep / Comment - List has a bit more information than shown directly on the website, so it may stand here. This bus route list is slightly more developed than the one found at this deletion discussion. It provides more insight, but not by much. If the decision is "keet", it should be expanded to include more relevant information. Not all bus lists have insufficient information to justify an article existence, but I am glad we are distinguishing them. BRES2773 (talk) 23:39, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I find WP:NOTDIR completely relevant and concur with nom. I see no encyclopedic value in a list of bus routes. MB 03:01, 16 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • weak keep, but it should be expanded with more information (e.g. when the route commenced, any major changes to it, significant discontinued routes, etc). NOTDIR does not mean that we need to delete every list that might be a directory if the encyclopaedic information was removed. Thryduulf (talk) 19:00, 18 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Charlesdrakew then reverted the close without talking with Atlantic306 or going to DRV, and was undone (and then redone) by Atlantic306. I guess we're now waiting for an uninvolved admin?

  • Delete - Fails NOTDIR (There's not much prose to this article, Whilst lists are acceptable, as a rule there should be prose and in this article and at present there's not much as such and as such I would consider this to be a simple directory)
Fails NOTTRAVEL (I would consider this to be a travel guide - It's giving you the bus companies names and where to board and alight from so I would consider that a guide),
Fails BASIC/GNG - (There has been no evidence of notability provided, 2 sources have been provided for 2 bus services but as a rule of thumb each service should be sourced),
The table as a whole provides no knowledge to our average reader other than were a bus goes from and too - This information is as far as I'm aware all on the separate bus company articles so as such a huge table is not needed, I'm not seeing any valid reasons for keeping this at present. –Davey2010Talk 22:09, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • there isn't much prose but the table is not that huge with 93 entries, also it could be useful for readers that they dont have to go to each seperate article but can find it all in one easy to read table, refs should not be a problem as they are popular bus routes, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 22:22, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Popular bus routes? Only the R-Line has an article (as it is a rapid service), the rest are just run-of-the-mill bus routes that would unlikely pass WP:GNG as do the majority of bus route articles. There is nothing of notable value other than a directory of bus routes which was Wikipedia is not. The timetable information has now been removed. Ajf773 (talk) 22:28, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • the article had helpful specific links to the correct timetables for each route but the nominator has just removed them for no valid reason as WP:NOTTIMETABLE refers to the inclusion of the timetable in the article not links to the timetable, Atlantic306 (talk) 22:36, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • We're not a travel guide. We should not have any sort of links pointing directly to bus timetables for this reason. Ajf773 (talk) 22:52, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Ajf773's correct there's only one article so I disagree this article isn't and cannot be useful to anyone, There are run-of-the-mill services and the lack-of-notability proves that, External links shouldn't be in articles and timetables alone cannot be used as sources anyway, I'll also add having external links like that would essentially mean the article's a repository if that makes sense,
We have to remember we're an Encyclopedia and as such should cover all wide ranges of topics but in this case like I said above I fail to see what's encyclopedic and knowledge-worthy about a table with a few pictures. –Davey2010Talk 23:43, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
