The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. There is consensus here that although entries in these lists may be individually verifiable, the topics as a whole do not have the coverage necessary for standalone lists. Vanamonde (Talk) 00:06, 25 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of professional ice hockey teams in North America by metropolitan area[edit]

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

List article that seems to be a synthesis of other lists, namely List of American and Canadian cities by number of major professional sports franchises, List of ice hockey leagues#North America, and List of metropolitan statistical areas. The subject seems to fail WP:LISTN (as a "List of Xs in Y by Z") on its own merits in that the topic of metro area size with hockey teams is really only the subject of articles in Potential National Hockey League expansion, which obviously is already its own page. Note: metro ares with major league teams is definitely a GNG subject in that it is discussed when it comes to how many major league teams metro can support (List of American and Canadian cities by number of major professional sports franchises). When it comes the minor leagues, the topic really only comes up in regards to potential venues, which is also already listed at List of indoor arenas in the United States, but not by size of metro area. Other than organizing a list by metro, it adds no other useful info that does not already exist in the comprehensive list List of professional sports teams in the United States and Canada. Yosemiter (talk) 23:48, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages for WP:SYNTH articles created at the same time:

List of professional baseball teams in North America by metropolitan area (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) which probably should mention other NA leagues like Dominican Professional Baseball League. The article's table is also so large, it makes the text near illegible in some cases and the minors are better documented at List of Minor League Baseball leagues and teams. Yosemiter (talk) 23:48, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Edit This one is actually older than the other two, (under the name List of professional baseball teams in the United States by city) but seems to have been the template for them. My nomination still stands though as WP:SYNTH. Yosemiter (talk) 00:36, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of professional gridiron football teams in North America by metropolitan area (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) outside of the NFL, CFL, Arena Football League, Indoor Football League, reliable coverage spirals downwards as to what teams are actually active or even professional and not just semi-pro. Yosemiter (talk) 23:48, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and relist all separately, topics although closely related have significantly different levels of potential notability.--Paul McDonald (talk) 01:38, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- @Paulmcdonald: Possibly separate, but even the one that has existed for years has never had any sources. What are your thoughts addressing my concern over WP:SYNTH? If you feel these absolutely need to be separate, I would like to see a proof that the minor league by metro area is even covered. Even the baseball one has a statement at the top that certain leagues are ignored because they are "lightly-attended... with varying team lineups from year to year." In other words, too low level to for an obscure list that claims to cover professional leagues. Mid and lower level gridiron and hockey are even less covered in media. Yosemiter (talk) 03:48, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Since you asked, I would argue that these are valid notable lists and that any documentation/sources missing from the articles are surmountable problems solved by editing rather than deletion -- I see no policy violation and no reason to delete. I don't buy the "synthesis" argument because this is not combining or drawing conclusions (if A and B is sourced, then C must happen but that's unsourced) but rather pooling multiple sources together to build a list. I haven't done it, but I'm confident that for each professional team on these lists one can find sources to say that TEAM X is based out of CITY Y and there it is--no original research necessary.--Paul McDonald (talk) 04:13, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    - From SYNTH: If "A" and "B" are sourced and A+B = "C", but "A+B" is not published a reliable source, then "C" is OR. Yes, lots of sources stating a team is in a city. And there are lots of sources that list city sizes and metropolitan rankings. There seems to be a lack of coverage for minor leagues that say "there are teams in said sport in these size cities" (outside of a few blogs like this one). That is all I am saying. Yosemiter (talk) 04:51, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      - In this case, what the list article provides is simple counting and sorting, and counting and sorting are not original research. I understand the "synth" argument, I just don't buy it.--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:12, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        My understanding of COUNTSORT is that if an existing data set can be sorted, there is no reason not to. Since the topic is essentially "metros with professional [specific sport] teams", then it would be fine to sort by metro size. I am questioning whether "metros with professional [specific sport] teams", especially with the arbitrary limit of showing all metros that do NOT have professional [specific sport] teams and how the various leagues fit in for anything other than the major leagues, meets GNG. Otherwise, this is not an existing data set, it is a listcruft-y article created from other lists for the sole purpose to be sorted and COUNTSORT would not applicable. Yosemiter (talk) 23:07, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        From WP:COUNTSORT: "If the counting, ranking, and/or sorting can be reasonably disputable then it likely at that point would be considered original research." The sorting really cannot be reasonably disputed that I can see. There is nothing in COUNTSORT that says all data points must come from the same source.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:34, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This information is relevant in areas of expansion, relocation, and as a general guide to see how metro size doesn't necessarily conform to who gets a team (see Winnipeg for example). I don't really see how this is original research at all, since metro size and locations of teams are very well established. In the case of minors, I often wonder how big the cities are who have different levels of minor league teams, and this table is the only page on Wikipedia that shows it so clearly. Jhn31 (talk) 01:41, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- @Jhn31: Well, wikipedia is not a general guide per WP:NOTSTATSBOOK, so the topic itself needs to be well covered in independent media. Making it a list because it's interesting is not enough. So combining two other known lists into one specific list is what we call original research by way of combination two subject to make a synthesized conclusion not covered in independent media. As to expansion, as I explained in my nomination, the NHL has its own page about it with all relevant sources (well as the expansion articles for each of the major leagues). There is far more to ANY professional league's expansion than just metro size (right ownership, appropriate venues, and possible conflict of competing sports such as why List of American and Canadian cities by number of major professional sports franchises is well covered). As to minor leagues, the same applies for locations. But I am challenging the existence of independent coverage on the subject of any level professional teams in North America by metropolitan area. Yosemiter (talk) 03:48, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - You don't think it's well-covered where minor league teams' stadiums are located? Really?? And I don't need a patronizing explanation of what synthesis is. Jhn31 (talk) 04:04, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - I don't see this as "combining two other known lists into one specific list" but simply sourcing the list article. And please be careful in saying that this is "what we call" anything. Each editor can only speak for themselves and not a larger group.--Paul McDonald (talk) 04:17, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    - Of course a team/stadium is sourced to a city, that is not my argument here. But that is not these lists. The subject of these lists are All teams [in a sport] by metro area. On an individual basis of a team (or even a specific league) = GNG covered (also the articles already exist for majors). As a list of all teams, at all levels, I do not see coverage as an entire subset for a sport. I did find a couple of blogs. (And sorry for the use of "we", I did in fact mean "I".) Yosemiter (talk) 04:51, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      - If we required one source for all content in any article, there would be no need for the article--we could just include a link to that source and there would be no need for content.--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:10, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as WP:OR. Nobody groups teams by metropolitan area. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:44, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Wait, what? Do you think people think of the Rays as being from St. Petersburg, rather than the Tampa area? Or the Braves from out in Cobb County, rather than the Atlanta area? Or the Jets and Giants from East Rutherford, rather than the NYC area? Etc. Etc. Etc. for a pretty long list. Everyone thinks of teams by the general area they're from, not the specific municipality itself. An article that was listing teams by their actual city rather than their metro area would be silly trivia. This article lists the urban areas in the way that they're generally thought of. Jhn31 (talk) 20:04, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Conjecture has no place here... that is, unless you can provide irrefutable proof that "Nobody groups teams by metropolitan area" -- wait, at least SOMEBODY does... Cities in United States with Most Professional Sports Teams; Bleacher Report; Cities With the Most Successful Professional Sports Teams; The Cities With Too Few Sports Teams… yeah, somebody does... --Paul McDonald (talk) 21:44, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Agreed with Paul McDonald, people do group MAJOR pro teams by metro. Also note, all those sources are for List of American and Canadian cities by number of major professional sports franchises, not by baseball, not by hockey, not by American football, etc. Most media fails to even talk about market area with minor leagues, and that is MY point of contention. Sources do not exist comparing the Kane County Cougars metro area with the Houston Astros, despite the Cougars being part of a larger metro (just as an example, not in specifics). These list articles just take the list of all teams and makes a new article so that it can be sorted in by metro, when outside of the major leagues, it is not normally done. Yosemiter (talk) 21:58, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    - Cities are not "metropolitan areas" as used in this list. Not even the most diehard Blackhawks fan says the team is based in the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN-WI MSA. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:35, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      - @Clarityfiend:@Paulmcdonald: I think you're getting too hung up on the exact name of the metro area. If we changed it to just say "Chicago," would that change your mind? I decided to use the official US government names of the metro areas because then there's no question of what counts as Chicago. But in your example, if the Blackhawks built a new arena out in the suburbs one day, they would still be thought of as a Chicago team. The (football) Jets and Giants are thought of as New York teams, not East Rutherford teams. The Atlanta Braves play in an unincorporated patch of land outside Atlanta, but they're still thought of as part of the Atlanta metro area. I totally disagree with your assertion -- I could turn your statement around and say "not even the most diehard Golden Knights fan thinks of his name as a Paradise team." Everyone associates the Golden Knights with the Las Vegas area. Jhn31 (talk) 13:06, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete : There is no encyclopaedic value imparted by the lists nominated for deletion. This is pure personal work from a sports enthusiast. I'm all for enthusiasm but this is putting up one's name in lights. -The Gnome (talk) 15:39, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:UNENCYCLOPEDIC is specifically listed as an argument to avoid in deletion discussions.--Paul McDonald (talk) 16:11, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings, Paul McDonald. The essay on arguments to be avoided is about general and bland arguments to the effect that something is or is not "encyclopaedic", a term that is indeed vague. I'm making the argument that the contested list does not impart any encyclopaedic value, an objective for all articles as detailed in the very first pillar of Wikipedia and to which I linked as a shortcut. Since it appears that the reference needs clarification, I specifically referred to the part about Wikipedia not being an indiscriminate collection of information, or a web directory, since these do not indeed impart encyclopaedic value whatsoever. Hope it's clear now. -The Gnome (talk) 06:37, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, but the lists are quite WP:DISCRIMINATE in their nature with precise definitions and requirements for inclusion. I don't see them as a directory at all either...--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:29, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@The Gnome: I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one. Population of metro area is very relevant to professional sports teams. The Milwaukee Brewers, Kansas City Royals, Cincinnati Reds, etc., are often referred to as "small market" teams, and that's based on the size of their metro area, not the size of their cities proper. As previously stated, lots of teams play in the suburbs of the city they're named after – in the same metropolitan area, though. If you want a minor league example, my hometown of Jackson, MS, was considered for a Triple A baseball team a few years back. It would have played in the Pacific Coast League in a nice, compact division with the teams from New Orleans, Memphis, and Nashville and cut down on travel costs. But we didn't get one precisely because the market size of Jackson (95th) is so much smaller than those other three (46th, 42nd, and 36th) and most other AAA cities that it didn't happen, and that was due to metropolitan area size of Jackson, not the city proper. Finally, there is potential expansion and relocation in all 4 major sports leagues, and a huge contributor to that is the size of the metropolitan area.

Weak Delete - Wow. I am really on the fence with this once as it is a very popular company.

Delete: I helped the user in #wikipedia-en-help yesterday where they maintained they were an independent researcher but had asked and received emails containing photographs for the article from the academic in question. They also expressed frustration at the size of the OTRS backlog and demonstrated a clear unwillingness to work on a collaborative project, as has subsequently been evidenced by their NOTHERE block. It is for this reason that I am opting for delete as opposed to draftify because the user showed no interest in using the process, and the article is wholly unsuitable for the mainspace.

~~Delete~~ It's possible that the subject might be notable on account of their academic writing. I found one credible review of the book 'Nineteenth-Century British Secularism...', I wouldn't be surprised if there were more. This article would need to be completely rewritten from the ground up however, both to conform with MOS and to achieve NPOV, so I think WP:TNT would be the right approach. Regarding the reported identity of the author, please can we stay away from mentioning that again - we shouldn't be doxxing users based on off-Wiki stuff, even if their account is blocked.

Xxanthippe I don't think your edit was problematic - I requested the revdel, and the only thing that I saw as a problem was IntoThinAir's comment that they've mentioned below. There were several edits after that however, and it's a bit tricky for an admin to disentangle later edits when revdelling an earlier one - I think yours was probably removed by accident. I'd suggest that you restate your opinion - so long as you're not discussing the identity of the article's author, it's not any kind of problem.

Keep I'm changing my vote in light of the work that has been done to the article since I looked at it, primarily by Jweiss11, and also by Theroadislong (who copped a fair amount of vandalistic flack from the (now blocked) original author), and from wbm1058. When I originally cast my vote, I was worried that the article would just fester in its previous state indefinitely; a lot of work has been put into making this a reasonably neutral piece. I've made a few more tweaks to the language myself, to put a bit of distance between his ideas and 'wikipedia's voice', and to remove a bit of WP:EDITORIALIZING, but in it's current state I'd be happy for it to stay. I'd encourage others to take a fresh look after the hard work that's gone into it. GirthSummit _(blether) 21:04, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Just to be clear, I agree with NorthBySouthBaranof that there is more cleanup work to be done on the article - I just no longer feel that WP:TNT is required, a mop and bucket (and perhaps a stiff scrubbing brush) should suffice. GirthSummit _(blether) 07:22, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep While the team was unremarkable with in ring performance, their reception and usage as an attempt to get Roman Reigns over makes the stable notable enough for inclusion. Plus, their two championship reigns earlier on, one with the WWE Championship, adds more merit to them having an article.

Putinism[edit]

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

This was created today, as a fork of Russia under Vladimir Putin, an article which actually resided at Putinism itself until a move request in 2016. I don't think the concept of "Putinism" is sufficiently distinct from the general topic of Russia under Putin to merit its own article, and this should revert to being a redirect. — Amakuru (talk) 15:35, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep First of all, the sources currently used on the page and others, such as this, this, this, this, this, [2], this this, tell that the "Putinism" does exist as a separate subject/terminology. One can also make Google searches. Secondly, please see Russia_under_Vladimir_Putin#Putinism. "Putinism" is a section/sub-subject of page Russia under Vladimir Putin. This is a legitimate sub-article. It would be wrong to say that "Russia_under_Vladimir_Putin=Putinism". Finally, according to the closing (a non-admin one) [3], "Putinism can be forked from the new page title if necessary". That is what I did. As a note of order, the result of previous AfD discussion for this page was keep. My very best wishes (talk) 16:16, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
True, that AFD was keep, but that was referring to the article now housed at Russia under Vladimir Putin. The article was moved there from this title in 2016, but is basically about the same thing. And I'm not saying there's no such thing as "Putinism", I'm sure that exists as a WP:DICDEF term, but it basically just refers to the policies and record of Vladimir Putin during his tenure as Russian leader. — Amakuru (talk) 16:45, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

According to majority of sources, "Putinism" and "Russia under Putin" are different, just as Gaullism and "France under Charles de Gaulle" are different. "Putinism" is more like an official ideology. The term is widely used in Russian, including even Russian sate officials. For example, well known Vladislav Surkov just published his ideas about it [4]. This needs to be included on the page. And no, this is not WP:DICDEF because there is a substantial coverage of the subject. My very best wishes (talk) 17:12, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. There's a claim to be made that this article needs to be better differentiated from its parent, but that's an editorial issue, not a cause for deletion. The base question is whether "Putinism" is covered in reliable sources independent from merely Putin's governance of Russia. And that answer is resoundingly yes, with several articles in scholarly journals dedicated to examining essentially that question. For example: Economic Affairs, Russian Social Science Review, Journal of Democracy, and much of the content of this book, which (in part) compares Putinism to other similar leader-focused political philosophies like Bonapartism and Berlusconism. The above comparison to Gaullism is apt. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 17:37, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Putanism is already a small and legitimate sub-section of the large Russia under Vladimir Putin article – implpying it is a seperate sub-topic, which is correct.

Helicopter dick[edit]

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

Prod (and prod endorsement) removed without improvement or rationale.Delete as per WP:DICDEF and WP:NEO. In addition, zero of the sources use this actual term. Three refer to it as simply "helicoptering", while the 4th uses the term "dick helicoptering". Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:35, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per my endorsement of the original PROD, and per WP:URBANDICDEF: There is absolutely no literature or news sources using this term, and only one—MEL magazine—for "dick helicoptering" (and again, no news outlets), while [9] "helicoptering" is an accepted sociological phenomonon in parenting. This is urban-dictionary trivia backed by insufficient (read: no) reliable sources; the fact that one of the only non-blog/social media sources available is The Sun—a now deprecated source—speaks volumes. ——SerialNumber54129 13:54, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Body of water cleaning[edit]

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

The article seems to have been created to publicise a competition rather than describe its subject. All the sources currently detail the competition, rather than the subject of the article; the content about the subject itself is a single, dictionary definition sentence, which doesn't appear to be supported by the sources (none of the ones I was able to check use the phrase 'Body of water cleaning'). It's possible that this is a notable subject, but I can't find any sources using the phrase that is the title of the article. GirthSummit _(blether) 12:47, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Author comment. The article, if you read it, describes two totally separate competitions. I hope we can learn from both of them. 4 of the 6 references, if you read them, are not related to the competitions. User:Barkeep49 reviewed the article.--Wyn.junior (talk) 17:43, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, apologies - it's describing two competitions, not one. I can't check all the sources unfortunately - I'm in the UK, and some of them block access from European countries for legal reasons. The ones I was able to look at were about the competitions; the others, from their titles, appear to be local news websites, so I don't think they're really authoritative on this subject. To build a proper article about this subject matter we really need some solid sources that discuss it in depth. GirthSummit _(blether) 10:47, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete, at least based on the content we have. Let's call it WP:TNT. The topic of how to "clean" bodies of water (especially lakes) is very likely a notable one. I'm ... not confident that such an article should be at this title (and I'm really not sure what title it belongs at; sources do not seem to agree on terminology), but that's an editorial issue. What's more germane to AFD is that the stub we have here is essentially an advertisement for Erie Hack 2.0 and the George Barley Water Prize, neither of which strike me as notable. The idea that the primary purpose of this ecological restoration activity is to enable human recreation is also effectively unsupported by a broader review of sources. And once we remove the problematic text here, we have removed all the text. No prejudice to recreation (perhaps here, or perhaps under a different name) on the broader scientific and engineering challenges of lake water quality restoration. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 17:48, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per Squeamish Ossifrage, sorry but this is covered (apart from the competitions) in Water_pollution#Control_of_pollution, and related articles, alternatively the relevant bits should be incorporated in Lake_Erie#Water_quality_issues_and_restoration and Lake Jesup.

Oppose. This article about a Site of Special Scientific Interest in Leicestershire cites three sources, all publications by Natural England, which is a non-departmental public body of the UK government. They are official publications approved by Natural England, not primary or self-published sources. The article is one of hundreds with similar sourcing which have been summarised in Lists of Sites of Special Scientific Interest. Many are featured lists, including List of Sites of Special Scientific Interest in Leicestershire, and no reviewer has ever objected that the sources are unsatisfactory.

Oppose. For the reasons given above. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 12:03, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. SSSI's are notable by the very nature of their designation on behalf of the government (under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 or the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949) which place specific duties on local authorities for their protection. Further references could be included (eg A history and natural history of an ancient Leicestershire woodland from the Wildlife Trust), but these are not really needed when the designation itself identifies a Protected area. There are many thousands of articles about Protected areas on wikipedia and each is clearly significant/notable.— Rod ^talk 12:15, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of Kenan & Kel characters[edit]

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

This list should not be its own separate article. IMO, it should be heavily condensed and merged into the "Premise" and "Characters" section of the main series article, which is of a lesser size than the character list for some reason. The list article has only two references, one being an IMDb credits page and the other being a directory on primetime television series. The main article has plenty of room to incorporate the main characters, possibly even the recurring or minor characters, but the list article itself does not seem to justify its own existence.

Author comment. Anybody who doesn't consider an International Master notable in a chess context is missing the boat rather badly. For comparison, as of 1980 when Larry D. Evans earned the IM title, there were, in round numbers (I am trying to get exact ones), 500 to at most 1000 IMs and International Grandmasters on earth. By comparison, there were well over 10,000 players who had reached the major leagues of American baseball (source [10], go to one of the player pages there and look at the exact numbers) -- and no matter how short their careers (some very short indeed), they are notable enough to get articles if documentation on them can be found. International Masters are in very select company in the world of chess, more select than cup-of-coffee major-league baseball players in baseball. This is true even today, when title devaluation has increased the number of IMs and GMs to something around 5000 (http://ratings.fide.com/advaction.phtml?idcode=&title=g for the GMs, of whom there are about 1600; http://ratings.fide.com/advaction.phtml?idcode=&title=m for IMs, about twice that many) -- a large fraction of whom have earned the title since Evans. (Current baseball total is around 20,000.) We need more articles on IMs, particularly pre-2000 ones, not deletion of existing ones. That should be obvious.

As for the sources, the FIDE page I cited is from the absolute master data base of information on titled players. It is authoritative. The "puffy interview" serves to document what became of Evans after he retired from international play. "Puff pieces" abound for post-career documentation of people who achieved notability during their careers. Don't like it? Find a better one, for example in the archives of the publication Chess Life of the United States Chess Federation. -- Bill-on-the-Hill (talk) 16:03, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. By that argument, the contributors at WP:Wikiproject Chess are collectively missing the boat. While there are no specific notability guidelines for chess, the convention recorded at WP:NCHESS is that only grand masters have assumed notability, anyone else needs to have played in certain competitions, or they have to pass WP:GNG. The article makes no claim that the subject competed in any of the listed competitions, and I can't find sources that would get him over the line on WP:GNG. My problem with the puffy interview isn't specifically that it is puffy, it's rather that it is unreliable and not independent - it looks like paid content in the local press - and so doesn't help with WP:GNG.

If you can dig up sources that demonstrate notability per GNG, or that he played in one of the competitions listed at NCHESS, I'll happily withdraw the nomination. GirthSummit _(blether) 17:07, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. As presented here, exclusively used in context with Nick Walker's student-project website (as noted above).

Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they haven't won — to already have a Wikipedia article today, he would have to already have preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten him a Wikipedia article anyway. But this article isn't even trying to demonstrate any evidence of that — as written, it's literally just "Irfan Raza Ansari is a candidate, the end". No prejudice against recreation after election day if he wins, but nothing here is a reason why he would already get an article now. Bearcat (talk) 18:42, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But there are news sources name-checking him. Before we hit the delete button, are we all absolutely sure we've done WP:BEFORE on this? Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 19:15, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, as nominator, I did look for sources. I found nothing of significance. I agree that declining the A7 was appropriate, but there is nothing else out there to support inclusion as an article. -- Whpq (talk) 19:27, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sources namechecking him is not the notability test. Every candidate in every election everywhere can always show some of that kind of sourcing — so if that were enough to get a candidate over GNG in lieu of having to pass NPOL, then every candidate would always get that exemption and NPOL would mean absolutely nothing anymore. The notability test for a candidate is either (a) evidence that he was already notable for other reasons, or (b) evidence that he's getting so much more coverage than most other candidates get that he's got a credible claim to his candidacy being special. But no, ten Google news hits isn't enough to do that, especially since even those ten aren't all verifiably about the same person — at least four of them aren't in a political context at all, for starters, and nothing present in them adequately clarifies that they're actually about the same person as the political-candidate coverage. Bearcat (talk) 22:55, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I would dispute that some of the "Keep" users are sock puppets:

The following are all users with a considerable history of contribution to the project, and with too many contributions for me to consider it likely that they are merely a sock puppet:

USER:Computerjoe - now inactive
USER:ST47 - admin
USER:Angelbo - now inactive
USER:Tony Fox - now inactive, admin
USER:Fairsing - now inactive
USER:Bluedustmite - now inactive

There are only two users who are almost certainly sock puppets, USER:Bov and USER:Gazpacho, and also one that I consider possibly a sock puppet, though probably not, USER:Drett - though it does also appear that they hold some... questionable... political views.

With all that said, taking a quick gander at the sources suggest that the subject is not notable, but I won't vote unless I get the chance to look in more detail. -- NoCOBOL (talk) 13:16, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The section 'Press coverage' looks like a weird way to attempt to establish notability. If the mentions contain useful information you would imagine they be used in the body of the text. Also, if you look at the CSPAN ref, which is a hosting site and therefore primary, it indicates the information on the page isn't even correct. the organisation has two founders, one of whom isn't on the page.

Delete leaving aside the sockpuppet overpopulation problem with the 1st AfD, and leaving aside the fact that this is a FRINGE, conspiracy theory outfit to look at the sources. Problem is that the souces I find in searches are either FRINGE (self-published books with titles like The New Pearl Harbor Revisited: 9/11, the Cover-Up, and the Exposé, and Mounting Evidence: Why We Need a New Investigation into 9/11,) or they are mere mentions , tend to be vague, and have different sets of facts. One of the very few recent mentions in a reliable newspaper, the The York Dispatch, How a national conspiracy theory museum wound up in the 'boondocks' is about a new conspiracy theory "museum, the Hidden History Museum that is composed of stacks of cardboard filing coxes in a rented space in a disused strip mall. The files were collected by a man named John Judge, now deceased. Her's the part about the "9/11 Citizens Watch": [ https://www.ydr.com/story/opinion/columnists/mike-argento/2019/01/16/how-national-hidden-history-museum-wound-up-york-county-pa-conspiracy-theory-museum-john-judge/2582211002/ Judge wasn’t a 9/11 truther, though. Tenenoff said, “He thought those people were fanatics." He formed a 9/11 Citizens Watch to counter the 9/11 Commission, asking the questions that weren’t asked. He didn’t believe, as some truthers do, that the twin towers were brought down by a controlled demolition. He thought that was preposterous, Tenenoff said. How would they get the explosives in the buildings? Were the explosives built into the buildings’ steel frames? He didn’t buy that. Nor did he buy the notion that the Pentagon attack was staged and that a plane did not crash into it. He lived close enough that he felt it. No, all of that was distraction, he believed. He did have some questions. Were the suspected terrorists identified as being on the planes really on them? Did George W. Bush know about the attacks and let them happen to give him a pretext to invade Iraq? He was more interested in the aftermath, Tenenoff said, the loss of civil liberties, the constant state of war, the amount of power shifted to the government. “He just wanted to know what really happened,” she said. The truth, it seems, is out there, contained somewhere in the 270 boxes and 8,000 books and hundreds of audio and video tapes housed in a small, nondescript office suite in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania.]. As someone menitoned above, our article cites a different "founder".

Comment Working on Keep. Trying to clean up the article and find better sources. Don't know why John Judge (not John Judge) isn't included. Put an external link for 4 C-SPAN videos until I figure out which is used as a ref. Here is an RTF of their 9/11 Commission Critique which concludes, "We do not anticipate that we will disagree with all the many conclusions and recommendations of the 9/11 Commission’s final report..." Still looking for"The Omission Report". There are other bad links too. Org seems less fringe and more just criticizing the process and secrecy of the investigation. If you did merge, maybe Criticism of the 9/11 Commission might be a better article. StrayBolt (talk) 21:58, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And these two ladies attended a 9/11 CitizensWatch press conference. And some of the books that reference this aren't self-published either. Karl Twist (talk) 09:00, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No see this is exactly what is NOT going to help establish notability. This is making me think delete. The CSPAN refs are all primary because it's coverage of their own press conference made by themselves. It doesn't mean it's ok because Scoop posts a link to it which is what your two links are, a link to a conspiracy theory news aggregator page. Also failing to see how a non free Getty image has anything to do with this. If this is the best there is, then it's not notable. Mramoeba (talk) 09:19, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reply - I believe there is a good degree of discernment by Scoop with what they choose or choose not to publish, just as much as they do with major NZ newspapers. The Getty image is just an indication of the conference that would have been either televised or printed in a reliable newspaper. That wasn't to prove notability as such. It was more for those who want to find out about it as I don't have the time at this moment. Karl Twist (talk) 12:27, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Scoop is not a newspaper. This is an uneditorialised press release redirecting to 911truth.org, a conspiracy theory website. Wikipedia informs us "The website publishes a large number of submitted news and press releases due to their permissive policy." All of these links are already on the page anyway as they all lead to CSPAN which is in external links. Mramoeba (talk) 13:50, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Having had some time to look at this, this is a clear delete. The organisation managed a handful of press mentions, none in mainstream sources, and the rest of this is primary, some of it disingenuously made to look secondary through the wording and reference landings (from article edit summary I removed the worst). In summary:

1) Primary: Own website, allowable for basic facts/descriptors only

2) Primary: Zogby market research was sponsored by Citizens Watch. This article is a summary of findings

3) Christian Science Monitor is generally considered reliable source, however this is a short article covering groups who submitted questions to the commission the adverts CW posted and quotes, there is no in depth coverage, in fact the only interpretation of CW by the journalist is "one of the groups observing the proceedings"

4) BBC is a mention, the entire article is 9 different reaction comments, no journalitic analysis or interpretation.

5) Abook which is not viewable. From the Google snippet I suspect this could very easily be another passing mention of their reaction to the report, as covered elsewhere.

6) Washington TIMES, wikipedia disputes reliability, "The Washington Times is considered partisan for US politics, especially with regard to climate change and US race relations." There is no coverage of CW in it anyway, just a quote from Kyle Hence.

Comment, I still stand by my keep vote. Because so much of the media is controlled by the like of Murdoch, searches need to be done in other areas. The Getty images pic that features April Gallup and Rosemary Dillard states they were at a 9/11 Citizens Watch press conference at the National Press Club. Was it on TV or in which papers?

Author's note: Notability began with a full article published a decade ago about the company's technology and benefit to India. An article about Haloid would not be something to delete, even if today people ask "please Xerox it" rather than please Haloid it.

Author observation: Wiki asks for contribtions, decries information being lost, and then . . . history gets deleted? A report posted to the U.S. Department of Justice, available here, says that nine companies in this space developed "contactless fingerprint technologies that are worth noting." The first two are now facing deletion from Wiki's servers. ClassifEye is listed first of the nine. The second is also HatNoted. The report notes both companies have closed. Is this like deleting history? I updated the ClassifEye article to point to the report. Pi314m (talk) 08:16, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Pi314m That sounds like a good idea as the technology is likely notable (presuming that there is no existing WP article on this), and it could include discussion around the companies in the space. I find myself recommending on AfD often that older articles, where the sources have dried up for a decade, it is better to consolidate articles around a main theme. It is most likely as time goes on that such consolidated articles will survive, whereas individual weak cases will get deleted and and useful history/references lost.

I oppose a merge, as articles on technologies are not used to house information on the companies, as it's undue promotional details. I removed the corporate overviews for the two companies: diff.

Not a notable person. Only ref in the article is an obituary calling him "World's fattest man".

The Classified Encyclopedia of Chess Variants. John Beasley. p. 354. ISBN 978-0-9555168-0-1. --IHTS (talk) 04:59, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. We now have two sources in the article. The Classified Encyclopedia of Chess Variants is presumably a reliable source, but not accessible online. Variant Chess describes itself as the Journal of the British Chess Variant Society, not a newsletter as stated in the nom, and is set out that way. It may not be scholarly peer reviewed, but it seems to meet our usual criteria for news sources; it has an editorial board, articles are from named writers, and it does not accept paid content. The article in question is in-depth (two pages) and shows that the variant is (or was) actively played, rather than just made up by someone as an interesting exercise. I also found two brief entries in book sources: UNBORED Games and Tabletop Game Design for Video Game Designers. That seems enough to me to get it past the WP:N.

Weak Keep - Josiah Wedgwood has been the subject of numerous biographies. An early biographer who wrote a two volume biography and a number of additional books is Eliza Meteyard. Based on her book, I think there is a good case the Josiah's brothers, Tom and John, are both suitably encyclopedic subjects for an article. Their lives and motivations are discussed in detail, and a good deal is known about them. You can see their entries in the book's index, here[16]. I think there is a much weaker case for Josiah's father. In this and other early, public domain biographies of Josiah, all that is written about his father is based on his will, his date of death, and generalizations about potters and inhabitants from Burslem during that period. I am !voting on all three AfDs (that of John Wedgwood (1721–67), that of Thomas Wedgwood IV and that of Thomas Wedgwood III) with this comment, as I think they are similar enough. I am voting weakly because I think the best proof of the subjects being encyclopedic would come in actually improving the pages (based on Meteyard or other sources) and I do not have time to do the improving myself.

In the last AfD I voted to keep the article as I felt that the article could be improved if RS could be found to update the article. However, the events that have occurred over the past few days with Dice desperately attempting to "fix" this page has made me change my mind. Most RS cover the conspiracy theories he used to promote years ago, and there is little coverage of his YouTube channel today (even though it has 1.4 million subs). If no RS exists for his career today, he simply can't be notable. I think deleting this article would be best for everyone, as Dice would not have a biography to complain about, and there is no indication that he will become notable anytime soon (even with this controversy) funplussmart (talk) 01:54, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per my comment in the previous AfD. Despite Dice's pitches on YouTube about his article, reliable sources make clear he hasn't really done anything of significance since 2015. They basically use him as a go-to guy when they need an alt-right person who will actually talk to them. That doesn't mean his previous work as a conspiracy theorist isn't notable (views he has never renounced, btw, and books he still sells through his own publishing house...) In fact, because he's trying to rebrand himself as some media commentator rather than as a conspiracy theorist who believes that Katy Perry is a Satanic Witch dancing in the Iluminati rituals at the Super Bowl Halftime show is even more of a reason for us to keep this article: his actual views and published opinions, as noted in reliable sources, are important for the public to know. Deleting this would be giving Dice what he wants: a whitewashed page, and preventing the reader from getting a fair, accurate, and up-to-date article on him, independent of his control.

Boxrec doesn't even show he fought for a West Indies title. Since he didn't turn pro until 1945 I'm surprised by the claim he received "significant coverage" in a book covering 1939-1945, though it is a local book of unknown reliability.Sandals1 (talk) 17:55, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Clearly doesn't meet WP:NBOX, so let's look at the sources given for meeting WP:GNG. The Afro-American encyclopedia has 2 sentences--one that he was from Trinidad and the second says he became a professional boxer in 1945. The T&T Guardian article mentions him in passing as losing twice to one of the fighters they're discussing. The T&T Newsday article is his obituary, I can't access the "First Citizen Sports Foundation" (whatever that is) link, and the Kingston Gleaner mention is in the local sports section. Sorry, but I just don't see coverage to show WP:GNG is met. Papaursa (talk) 01:03, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article seem to be used. User:Lucifero4

Thanks. I'm not sure what "used" means, although a high-traffic article, or articles with numerous incoming links may indicate a topic for which large numbers of people seek encyclopedic information. In this case there are several incoming links, but only as a result that Oakman is included on the Template:CofCApostles template. Regarding pageviews, before this AfD the page was averaging about 30 a month, or one a day, just barely more than what a page will receive from "Random article" traffic. I'm not giving a !vote here because I'm not sure he isn't notable in the same way that U.S. State legislators are notable (may only have local coverage, but actions demonstrably affect large numbers of people,) but although I appreciate the position I can't agree with it.

Comment For RLDS a good place to look for sources is the John Whitmer Historical Association Journal, and indeed, Oakman's role in the European church leading into WWII is discussed in "National Socialists and Social Idealists: The RLDS Church in Nazi Germany, 1933-1945", R. Ben Madison, The John Whitmer Historical Association Journal Vol. 16 (1996), pp. 15-30, and less extensively (though as "a towering figure in RLDS history") in "Forgotten Outpost: The Reorganized Latter Day Saints of Poland" by the same author in the same journal, Vol. 13 (1993), pp. 31-50. He's mentioned briefly in several other articles on RLDS history, though mostly in one paragraph or a few sentences.

Not notable. Only claim to fame is being the father of a famous person, Josiah Wedgwood, (and two others who also have Wikipedia articles but whose fame is only because they were the brothers of Josiah Wedgwood). For the record and as a possible conflict of interest I am a descendant (but so are probably a few thousand others). Erp (talk) 05:53, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as WP:INHERITED. There are times, and these 18th century industrialist dynasties are examples, when someone can be notable even though most of this is on behalf of other members of the family. The whole family is notable, as the multi-generational development of their family-owned business (which is certainly notable!). To omit one generation leaves us with a serious hole in the overall picture. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:20, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Merge. As Andy Dingley says it's the Wedgewood family that is notable, not each individual member of it. My suggestion is that all the Wedgewood articles up for deletion here be merged into a single article about the family, which can both cover why the family matters, and briefly summarise the lives of individual members. Mccapra (talk) 13:29, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, so this is another of those AfDs where it's a bulk AfD, but done silently without cross notifications? 8-(

I'm against merging. The borderline ones will be very thin articles, but they're just easier to manage as clear nodes within the namespace. Even if merged, we'd still keep them as redirects. That said, merging to the family article would still be better than deletion. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:34, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is already a Darwin–Wedgwood family article and I could see him mentioned there or in Josiah Wedgwood's own article (along with his two brothers Thomas Wedgwood IV and John Wedgwood (1721–67) who I also suggested for deletion, my apologies for not cross-linking them). I note that this Thomas Wedgwood was not a notable potter nor was his son Thomas and his son John's main importance separate from the other siblings was that he was murdered. If anything, the Thomases, father and son, were rather unsuccessful and the father died when Josiah was only 9 or 10. I also note that if you are trying to show how the previous generations (many of whom were also potters) connect are we going to include articles for all the individuals that connect Josiah Wedgwood to his wife and third cousin, Sarah Wedgwood? --Erp (talk) 05:21, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:ATD and WP:PRESERVE. There are details of the various Wedgwoods in works such as Chaffers. Andrew D. (talk) 16:18, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would say that mention in Chaffers is not sufficient; his work was an attempt to list every maker (Marks And Monograms On Pottery And Porcelain: With Historical Notices Of Each Manufactory (1866)). I don't think Wikipedia should consider each and every manufactory of pottery to be significant enough for an article. Note also that Thomas III and Thomas IV are one manufactory (Josiah started his own separate from his brother). John Wedgwood wasn't even a potter. --Erp (talk) 17:48, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is our policy that "there is no practical limit to the number of topics Wikipedia can cover" and so there is no reason to arbitrarily limit our coverage of potters to those that Erp prefers. My !vote stands. Andrew D. (talk) 12:27, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Lol..."this policy is not a free pass for inclusion: articles must abide by the appropriate content policies". This is a meta-reasoning (WP:EVERYTHING): Wikipedia merely being able to have article on anything doesn't mean it should. The content on the person may still be WP:PRESERVED in the family article rather than in a separate one. Reywas92^Talk 08:23, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Rename and repurpose -- The Darwin-Wedgewood family article seems largely about the Darwin family, but bringing in a few relatives with other surnames.

Weak Delete - Josiah Wedgwood has been the subject of numerous biographies. An early biographer who wrote a two volume biography and a number of additional books is Eliza Meteyard. Based on her book, I think there is a good case the Josiah's brothers, Tom and John, are both suitably encyclopedic subjects for an article. Their lives and motivations are discussed in detail, and a good deal is known about them. You can see their entries in the book's index, here[21]. I think there is a much weaker case for Josiah's father. In this and other early, public domain biographies of Josiah, all that is written about his father is based on his will, his date of death, and generalizations about potters and inhabitants from Burslem during that period. I am !voting on all three AfDs (that of John Wedgwood (1721–67), that of Thomas Wedgwood IV and that of Thomas Wedgwood III) with this comment, as I think they are similar enough. I am voting weakly because I think the best proof of the subjects being encyclopedic would come in actually improving the pages (based on Meteyard or other sources) and I do not have time to do the improving myself.
