Gabriel Novak[edit]

Does not appear to satisfy any of the six criteria of WP:COMPOSER. Three refs in the article: one to his personal website, one to the directory of the graduate program where he is currently doing a PhD, and one to the departmental webpage of the music school where he got his music degree. I did a bit of google news searching, and the only news item I found that concerns his work is this article in a local Cleveland newspaper where he is mentioned once [1]. I did not find any published reviews of his work either. The page says something about Film scores, but his name does not appear in IMDB in the credits for any films. So it looks to me like WP:COMPOSER is not satisfied at the moment. A prod was declined by the article's creator. Nsk92 (talk) 22:23, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Regardless of the nom's opinion of the source of the album's name, this is an album that hit #1 on the Spanish charts. The citation for THAT stat appears on the band's page instead of this one, but regardless there appears to be a common sense argument for notability here, even if there is a poor amount of citation. -Markeer 00:22, 20 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP - This is a charting album. Actually, it's more than a charting album as it went to no. 1 this year.

Well, since the claim that it's [one of] the oldest car assemblers in Pakistan seems to be true, that's certainly a good claim to notability. I note also that however poorly the article is currently sourced, that's mainly an editing matter not for AfD; and it's fine to use primary sources for basic facts about the firm. I see from the google news search that the firm was substantial enough to venture into Air Indus, so it certainly sounds notable. Perhaps we should ask an Urdu speaker to locate suitable sources. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:17, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

'Old enough' is not a criteria and WP criteria is strict for-profit entities, see WP:CORPDEPTH. Nothing in-depth in any reliable source about them in recent times. Störm (talk) 17:36, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Atwood Oceanics[edit]

Keep As WP:LISTED implies, a formerly public company like this has lots of sources that demonstrate notability, such as [2] and others easily found with a DuckDuckGo search. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:42, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ - To expand on the above, enough results also from newspapers.com which shows that this company passes WP:SIGCOV. Josalm64rc (talk) 07:13, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This account has received a checkuser block, so I've struck the vote Nosebagbear (talk) 21:12, 19 August 2019 (UTC) [reply]

Delete - does not meet WP:COMPANY, has not "been the subject of significant coverage" - of the three references, one is to a stock report, one about an acquisition and one about the founder's death = no in depth coverage per WP:CORPDEPTH - therefore, delete - Epinoia (talk) 17:13, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

How is a long stock report dedicated to the company (one of many such reports) not significant, in-depth coverage? UnitedStatesian (talk) 17:43, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- it's not media coverage and the WP:ORGCRITE guideline says, "there must be multiple of such qualifying sources" - a stock report merely confirms that the company exists, it does not establish notability - Epinoia (talk) 21:42, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Even though the guideline says nothing about "media", there are detailed articles from Bloomberg here and here; Houston Chronicle here; much other media coverage during the ~20 years this multi-billion-dollar company was public. UnitedStatesian (talk) 05:11, 20 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As per WP:NCORP guidelines, references such as analyst reports and research reports meet the criteria for establishing notability. Of course it can be very difficult to find a link to one of these reports as they are often behind (very expensive) paywalls. This link is to an analyst report (for sale) prepared by GlobalData. This second link from Zacks also meets the criteria. Topic meets GNG and WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 16:44, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of Vannar[edit]

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

This is supposed to be "a list of people bearing the surname Vannar" but it has three entries which are not about people with this surname. In fact, I can't find a single Wikipedia article about such people so I propose to delete the list. The article was previously Proded but the tag was removed by an IP without explanation. (Note that if kept, the article should be renamed to Vannar (surname) or something like that.) Pichpich (talk) 21:01, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I was about to AfD this page myself, for the reasons listed by the nom. Appears to be a WP:OR/made-up topic. None of the people on the list are actually named Vannar. The third item on the list is the name of a diety, not a person. Ref no 2 does not mention the name Vannar at all, as searching through its text in GoogleBooks shows. [3]. Looks like a likely WP:HOAX. Nsk92 (talk) 21:05, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I think this is an attempt to list people who are/were members of the Vannar caste. Given its length, merging it with the main article would be the usual route. However, the sourcing needs to be checked first as in such lists it is usually the case that many of the sources are poor. User:Sitush/Common#Castelists may come into play at some point also. - Sitush (talk) 21:06, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Even if you are correct that the page was intended to be a list of people who are/were members of the Vannar caste, there isn't anything in the article worth merging. Source number 2 does not mention Vannar, as noted in my comments above. Source no. 1 is now a dead link, but there seems to be a copy of it available elsewhere. No mention of Vannar there either. The third item on the list is a diety, not a person. Nsk92 (talk) 21:14, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Which is why I said that the sources would need to be checked. - Sitush (talk) 04:05, 20 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - as the one who prodded it, it is a list which contains not a single entry about what the list is supposed to contain. There is a caste called Vannar, but I can't find a single WP article about an individual with the name Vannar.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 21:24, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. If Vannar included a list of people then it could be usable as a redirect, but I don't see any reason to create such a redirect at this time. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 23:45, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, The list contains only three names , at best it could be regarded as OR. Alex-h (talk) 17:00, 23 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
delete the people included in the list dont have the surname, nor they belong to the caste. Maybe a hoax, or could be OR. In any case, fails the notability criteria for lists. —usernamekiran(talk) 23:37, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A digital sign manufacturer that fails WP:NCORP. The references in the article are all promotional; searching for new references turned up nothing significant, independent, and reliable.

Article was apparently created as advertising; note the older versions. It is jealously guarded by several SPAs, one of which authored the article and has a name equivalent to the company's products.

Article about a web series, completely unsourced to any indication whatsoever of notability per WP:WEB.

I cannot find any WP:RS that demonstrates that 1) this person exists and 2) they won Miss Turkey 2012. Our own Miss Turkey article suggests that a "Merve Sarıbaş" was crowned the Miss Earth delegate in 2011, but all of my google-fu turns up either copy-pastes of this article, complete with grammatical errors, or a very tenuous YouTube rehost that suggests she was a top-ten runner-up in 2012...

The writing is more like an academic than an encyclopedia article, but that can be fixed, and anti-police sentiment is a very real thing (a search on Google Scholar returns a lot of articles).

Delete - Not a notable cross-section of topics, nor is it sourced at all, nor does it do a good job of covering the subject in any sort of comprehensive detail. Unless some sort of drastic overhaul, I’d say the best possible scenario outside of deletion would be to draftify it, but even that I imagine would eventually lead to an inevitable WP:G13 deletion realistically.

Focke Wulf Fw 860[edit]

Unnecessary article on an obscure project that wasn't even slated for a prototype, let alone production. A better outlet would be a generic article covering ALL the 1950s and 60s German V/STOL projects Petebutt (talk) 07:36, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"That doesn't make it invalid. There are many other articles about concept aircraft includng the Focke-Wulf Triebflügel. Wikipedia is aimed to contain all known information and this is a part that interests some people. Some people would like to learn about it." PiggleMcDiggle (talk) 10:16, 12 August 2019 (UTC) Additional: "I have seen broken Wikilinks referencing the Fw 860 in other articles such as Tail-Sitter and Focke-Wulf. Surely we should be adding articles for them so that other users can select them and learn about the individual aircraft. As a counter to what was said by Petebutt, why should it be included within a generic article? A larger article may also omit much information of the precious little we know about the aircraft."

Comment Any subject can be notable if it is covered in significant detail by reliable sources, even if it was an idea for a project that didn't go anywhere. Not being able to read the books I don't feel able to comment on whether their content would establish notability per WP:GNG, but Nimbus227's offer is helpful.

Weak Keep - Many of the sources aren't independent, reliable or are actually about the company with Smith only appearing for quotes. However, the Forbes article is good, as it's written by an actual staff member which RSN is in favour of, as opposed to a contributor which are not permitted. Lexington Herald Leader also contains a good amount about him, even after filtering out some of the content as direct/indirect quotes.

delete No significant non-routine coverage to meet the GNG. As mentioned previously, the universiade is not the highest level of competition for fencers. The FIE doesn't consider it a major event and a world ranking of 50 is not usually considered enough to show notability. Even boxers, in a more widely known sport, need to be in the top 15 and top 10 judoka have been put up for deletion. I mention these because they are fellow combat sports. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sandals1 (talk • contribs) 18:31, 20 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Redirect to Italy at the 2019 Summer Universiade I think Sandals1 makes good points. I do not see anything that convinces me that WP:NSPORT is met since the subject has never competed at the highest level. I'm not seeing the coverage to show WP:GNG is met and it also looks like WP:BLP1E applies since all claimed notability stems from the one Universiade games. Having said all that, I am willing to propose a redirect to the aforementioned article. I just don't think an individual article is warranted at this time.

To deem a smalltown mayor notable enough for Wikipedia, we need considerably more than just one or two pieces of technical verification that he existed — the notability test for a mayor is the ability to write and source a substantive article about his political career, not the ability to locate the names of his wife and kids.

Comment. Notability cannot be judged simply by looking at the sources cited in an article, which two of the three delete arguments here are based on. There are several sources that discuss the subject to some extent that are not currently cited in the article: [28], [29], [30], [31], "Final 52 Steps to Ending a Life", Pretoria News (accessible via PressReader - states Barnard was the longest-serving executioner, executed more than 1,500 people, and offered his services to neighbouring countries). Maybe not sufficient to satisfy WP:GNG, but if we had a guideline for notability of (legalized) killers, a tally of 1,500 would probably be seen as significant enough. --Michig (talk) 08:45, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Breaking Mysterious[edit]

Sourcing is a long ways away from meeting WP:GNG. Despite having been aired in several different regions, the only available sources are entries on affiliated websites, TV databases, and press releases. I couldn't find anything in several different internet searches, although it was admittedly complicated by a lot of false positives from news reports that include the phrase "breaking mysterious". _signed,Rosguill ^talk 04:37, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is a History Channel series that has been broadcast in the United States and in many countries around the world. It deals with important, non-fiction subject matter, such as NSA mass surveillance programs (interview with former NSA employee Thomas A. Drake), CIA mind control experiments (MKULTRA), the JFK assassination (interview with former Secret Service agent Abraham Bolden, who protected JFK), etc. There is surprisingly little information on this series available beside this Wikipedia article, so it would be a shame to delete it. I have not been able to find any news articles or reviews of this series, but it is not a major network program aimed at a mass audience. Ghostofnemo (talk) 04:51, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It apparently premiered in 2017 on H2 in the United States...which is impossible since H2 has been Viceland since early 2016. Another paint-by-numbers history series that exists to merely fill a timeslot, and not much more. Nate • (chatter) 07:18, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me like you're trying to WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS, which is not what Wikipedia is for.

Comment Dads lasted an entire season on a major broadcast network with known actors...of course we're going to put it here, no matter if it literally dissolved brains as viewers watched. This is pretty much "Tin Hat Theories: The Series", lasted six episodes with little to no public notice, and we can't even source its airing history because the premiere date and air run corresponds to a time where its network didn't exist. We have some basic inclusion standards here, and this doesn't meet them. Nate • (chatter) 03:33, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thomas Drake is a real person and NSA mass data collection was real: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/jun/12/snowden-surveillance-subverting-constitution MKULTRA was a real CIA program: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/7920010/cia-mkultra-mind-control-drugs-hypnosis-electric-documents/ The JFK "Chicago Plot" was a real, historical event: https://abc7chicago.com/archive/9315215/ These are not "Tinfoil Hat" conspiracy theories, although some people would like to paint them that way.

Yes, and we have what I hope is a decent article about MKULTRA and all these other events. But just making a tv show about an important event does not make the tv show itself important or notable. That having been said, what's important in this discussion is the sourcing, not the subject matter. Find me three multi-paragraph reviews (or other significant coverage) of Breaking Mysterious in reliable, independent sources, and I will be more than happy to vote keep. Though you may want to avoid looking for coverage in The Sun (RSP entry) _signed,Rosguill ^talk 07:16, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To address the concern about this being a show about imaginary topics, I've added references to the article for most of the topics featured in the program. Ghostofnemo (talk) 01:16, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are now three or more citations by media websites in the article. According to WP:GNG, "Sources do not have to be available online or written in English." Ghostofnemo (talk)

Other languages are fine, but the sources you've added are not significant independent coverage, they're either 1) TV guide style listings or 2) unrelated articles about the subjects of the TV show that do not mention Breaking Mysterious. Please look for actual reviews of the subject by professional critics, as they are generally the easiest kind of significant coverage to find for a tv show. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 17:23, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

These look more like reviews than TV listings to me.

Keep. We do not have any rule that every mayor of a town or city always has to already be bluelinked before we're allowed to create or maintain a list of their names; open-ended lists that are vulnerable to the addition of self-promotional wannabe spam, like a generic list of writers or musicians, can have an "article must already exist" restriction placed on them, but closed-ended lists with tightly defined inclusion criteria, like a list of past and present holders of a specific political office, are not barred from containing redlinked or unlinked names — as long as the person's membership in that defined topic is verifiable, they're allowed to be named in the list whether they have an article or not. Spotchecking some of the articles that do exist, I can see that their actual notability may sometimes be debatable — Taunton isn't large enough to guarantee every mayor an instant free pass over WP:NPOL #2 just because he exists, but not all of the articles I randomly spotchecked are referenced well enough to get the subject over the bar — but deleting the list now is putting the cart before the horse. If you have questions about the notability of some or all of the mayors in this list who have articles, then tackle getting those non-notable mayors deleted first, and then we can revisit whether the list is worth keeping anymore on the basis of however many articles are left once the problematic ones have been canned. But as things stand right now, enough of the mayors in this list do have articles whether they should or not, and there's no rule that they all have to have articles before a list of them is allowed to exist.

Delete - though as creator of the page I'm a bit biased, I've checked sources etc. again and agree with all above (except that it isn't corporate spam ;)). At the time I was still new (as I still feel compared to most of you) to Wiki and felt like the award, his presidency at the National Press Club and other positions might be enough to meet general notability.

The Evangelical Connexion is a small church it doesn't need deletion it needs editors do their job right. So yes destroy one small church getting one bit of recognition.

Delete as per nom. It looks like someone is cite-spamming.

Delete, WP:TOOSOON. It's always problematic evaluating researchers in pure mathematics because our most commonly used metric, citations, works so badly in this field, but with only an entry-level faculty position and best-dissertation awards to go on we have no evidence of academic notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:04, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Mathematics-related deletion discussions. XOR'easter (talk) 15:49, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The deletion proposal is based on personal and unqualified opinion about dr Lupini's academic achievements and arbitrary interpretation of the WP:PROF criteria. As to the dr. Lupini's academic achievements we can read from Rising star in mathematics world featured in inaugural lecture series: "Dr. Martino Lupini from CalTech University who is producing “exciting and cutting edge mathematics” will speak at the inaugural H.N. Gupta Memorial Lecture March 2 at the U of R"; " Lupini is considered a rising star in the mathematics world.". As to the WP:PROF, its Criterion 2 is arbitrarily interpreted since it's not visible from this criterion how profound research results in the mathematics foundations demonstrated in someone's dissertation could be put on the same academic level as the IMO or the Putnam competition results of the secondary school and undergraduate students. In addition, at many universities worldwide the graduate studies are those leading to the MSc degree, the PhD studies are not considered as the graduate ones, rather above of the graduate ones. Therefore the Criterion 2 of the WP:PROF is unclear and imprecise and nowhere regarding the PhD dissertation disqualified as not notable.
Dr. Lupini's academic achievements are far above those listed by Nsk92 and Epstein which can be seen here: Research papers and preprints in Combinatorics, Dynamycal Systems, Operator Algebras, Functional Analysis and Model Theory. There are two books published by the world renown Springer Verlag. Then there is a long list of Invited Talks.
The Google h index cannot be taken seriously as a measure of the serious academic credentials and achievements since h-high in such fields like the fixed point or the inequalities cannot be ever superimposed to h-low index of a serious researcher in the mathematics foundations.
At the end, the ASL is not an institution supporting talented secondary school or undergraduate students - rather "an international organization supporting research and critical studies in logic. Its primary function is to provide an effective forum for the presentation, publication, and critical discussion of scholarly work in this area of inquiry.". Therefore the Sacks Prize is about "stunning results", "results that stand out", "a deep and sustained study", etc. - i.e. not a student level award as Nsk92 stated above.--Justi Rino (talk) 17:53, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Invidious comparisons, special pleading, walls of text, and hints that the article creator might be the return of a blocked sockpuppet (previously active on the article for Lupini's academic grandfather, which would be cause for G5 speedy deletion) aside, the two books could become an indication of notability through WP:AUTHOR rather than WP:PROF, but only if they had multiple published reviews each. "Introduction to Sofic and Hyperlinear Groups" appears to have two, the bare minimum (MR3408561 in Math. Reviews and MR3616345 in Bull Symb. Logic) but although Nonstandard methods in Ramsey theory has one pending in Math. Reviews it doesn't seem to have any published yet. Again, WP:TOOSOON, although maybe the wait will be shorter for notability in this direction. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:27, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment. Justi Rino's sockpuppetry is now confirmed. If we are going to consider G5 speedy deletion for Martino Lupini, perhaps we should also consider it for Justin T. Moore and Ilijas Farah, both created by a previous incarnation of the same puppetmaster and primarily edited by socks? —David Eppstein (talk) 17:51, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    - Moore appears notable per WP:PROF#C3 and Farah perhaps by WP:PROF#C1, but I'd support deleting both under the general principle of banned meaning banned. XOR'easter (talk) 18:29, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      - I agree with XOR'easter. --JBL (talk) 18:48, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete Setting aside citations as generally unilluminating for pure mathematics, all we have is a couple awards that might merit a mention but aren't enough to confer wiki-notability, and a pair of (co-authored) books that haven't yet earned the recognition necessary to meet WP:AUTHOR. (A PhD thesis can contain great work, but if it's the kind of accomplishment that would confer wiki-notability, then it would receive recognition above and beyond awards explicitly devoted to student work.) Unspecific praise in a press release counts for nothing. I'd suggest draftifying, but the possibility of sockpuppetry rules that out (we shouldn't preserve content that is eligible for speedy deletion). Nor is there any indication that his work has poked out into publications like Quanta which generally do a decent job at writing about mathematics in a popular or semi-popular way.

So You Think You Can Dance (American season 16) Top Ten finalists[edit]

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

Poorly sourced content fork of dubious necessity; it is not at all clear that this needs to be a separate article from the main So You Think You Can Dance (American season 16). While it is true that a couple of the early seasons have standalone contestant lists separately from the season articles, they mostly feature poorly sourced deep trivia that wouldn't even be kept in standalone BLPs if these people qualified for those -- separate contestant lists literally haven't existed since Season 6, with consensus having shifted toward keeping the contestant lists in the main season article rather than spinning them off as separate articles, and the only reason that even S2 through S6 still have standalone lists is a lack of editor commitment to actually cleaning up all the unencyclopedic bumf in them. This is cruft, not a model we should be reviving for the current season after having deprecated it for a full decade. Even the referencing here is mostly unreliable junk like Meaww and Goldderby and/or routine "local kid gets on reality show" coverage in the contestants' hometown local newspapers, not reliable or notability-making sources about the show.

Keep in some form, obviously. It was deleted twice from the main article where I had put it some this seemed like the best place to house it. Obviously adding to each bio will take time. As each will be getting media coverage as a top ten finalist the article will grow. If there is a better place to house these bios I’m open. Gleeanon409 (talk) 01:40, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If the contestants are not yet notable enough for their own standalone BLPs (which they're not, so don't take this as a license to try), then why do we need to create or maintain extended minibios of them, in either the season article or a standalone minibio compilation like this, at all? Bearcat (talk) 16:58, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I was looking to start a few of the bios, Eddie Hoyt’s for one, but I was having Internet connectivity issues and also working on Rainbow Honor Walk, so put it off for the moment. Gleeanon409 (talk) 17:27, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

People are not automatically eligible for BLPs just for being competitors in a reality show. The person who wins the season in the finale is the only one who gets an article because of SYTYCD itself; anybody else who competed but didn't win still has to build their notability the same way a dancer who was never on the show at all has to, namely by continuing to work as a dancer and/or choreographer and achieving something that would get them over our notability standards for dancers or choreographers. Bearcat (talk) 18:27, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I was just going by WP:GNG. This was the step to see which would have their own articles. The show itself feeds out biographical content every show in its aired video packages. Just like American Idol, America’s Got Talent, etc. Gleeanon409 (talk) 18:52, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The show is not an independent source for the purposes of establishing the standalone notability of its contestants; it is a directly affiliated source. Just like American Idol, America's Got Talent, etc.: their non-winning competitors don't automatically get Wikipedia articles just for being non-winning competitors on a reality show either, but also have to establish their notability the regular way by achieving something more notable in their continued careers after the show. Brian Justin Crum got an article because he had an actual charting hit that got him over NMUSIC, not because he was on AGT; D.J. Demers got an article when he scored a Juno Award nomination for a comedy album, not because he was on AGT in and of itself; Jennifer Hudson got an article when she was in Dreamgirls and became a major movie and music star who now cleared NACTOR and NMUSIC, not because she was on AI. They don't have articles because they were on reality shows and lost; they have articles because they kept working, and went on to achieve something more notable, after their non-winning runs on reality shows ended. Bearcat (talk) 19:10, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I’m not sure why you’re talking past me? I never suggested these finalists were notable because they were a finalist. I started compiling these to see if any did meet WP:GNG before creating their articles. Gleeanon409 (talk) 19:33, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In the remarkably rare event that a non-winning competitor in a reality show somehow already clears GNG on coverage already received before they were even on the show, that'll be immediately apparent without needing an article like this to exist as a premature placeholder — in fact, if a person is actually in that situation, then there's already a significant probability that their article already exists. Bearcat (talk) 19:38, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This was created in the main article where I think it belongs. Only after an anon deleted it, and I saw at least five other identical articles did I chose this option. Gleeanon409 (talk) 19:48, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Completely unneeded fork; this should stay in So You Think You Can Dance (American season 16) in whatever form is WP:TV-appropriate, and we don't need to carbon-copy fox.com/sytycd for biographical information. Nate • (chatter) 06:53, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:GNG and therefore fails WP:FOOTY. WP:FOOTY is guidance given as part of Wikipedia:Notability (sports) which states "the subjects of standalone articles should meet the General Notability Guideline. The guideline on this page provides bright-line guidance to enable editors to determine quickly if a subject is likely to meet the General Notability Guideline." WP:FOOTY is therefore merely guidance as to whether a subject is likely to pass WP:GNG. In this case the guidance fails because there isn't signifiant coverage in reliable sources.
