  • Delete - I found this - an interview on 'People.com' (surely the most reliable source in the English speaking world?), which supports the assertion that he played with 'Skeleton Crew', a band that apparently won Star Search in 1993. It doesn't appear to be the same band that we have an article on at Skeleton Crew (band). This would probably be enough to get the band over the line on WP:NMUSIC (criterion 8 and/or 12), but that would give the band notability, not him. If we had an article on the band, I'd suggest a redirect, so I guess it's a delete. GirthSummit (blether) 17:43, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Cardei012597: Your nomination does not include links to the prior AFD discussions. postdlf (talk) 15:10, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Postdlf: To be completely honest with you, this is my first time nominating an article for deletion. I was almost guaranteed to not get everything. Deb and I nominated this article for its inadequate citations, all drafted by the creator James Rolfe. I want someone else to include the links to the prior AFD discussions. There is no reason why List of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes should of been accepted, and for any other discussion to vote to keep it. I do not believe the previous List of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes discussions will be useful because they allowed the page to still exist, a page that failed to give verifiable evidence that the web content has attracted the notice of reliable sources unrelated to the web content, its authors, or its owners. Cardei012597 (talk) 18:04, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Postdlf: If there was an earlier deletion discussion, could you send us a link to it? It's my fault if User talk:Cardei012597 got that wrong. Deb (talk) 18:28, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • The history of prior nominations is on the talk page, which the nominator (and you as well, it seems) should have reviewed WP:BEFORE starting this AFD. I think there's also been a failure to review the edit history of the article, as there seems to be a misidentification of the creator (or perhaps I'm just getting confused by the aside regarding unrelated content above); this page was split from the parent article over ten years ago and edited by many different accounts since then. postdlf (talk) 23:56, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Postdlf: Apparently you are referring to deletion discussions about Angry Video Game Nerd, not about the article that is currently under discussion. Deb (talk) 09:26, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Postdlf: I just find it contradictory that many wikipedia editors feel that List of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes is fine, while any attempt to split the page Nostalgia Critic is detested, as they have the same exposure in the media. I do not believe the current situation to keep List of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes and remove any list of Nostalgia Critic makes any sense. Cardei012597 (talk) 00:40, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
          • Are you saying you don't actually want this page deleted, but that you want another page included? postdlf (talk) 01:40, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
            • @Postdlf: I just want to know why List of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes is fine, as the page itself does not have references specifically about the episodes that give verifiable evidence that the web content has attracted the notice of reliable sources unrelated to the web content, its authors, or its owners. I know its a split page, but that should not mean that its ok to not have reliable references. Cardei012597 (talk) 00:40, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
              • Your analysis is at best incomplete. All of your comments seemed focused on the current state of the article rather than its potential ("the page itself does not have references" ≠ "no references exist"), which is contrary to deletion and editing policy. There is also no requirement that individual episodes of any notable series be themselves independently notable (i.e., merit their own articles) in order to be listed. The better question is whether this is an appropriate level of detail for coverage of this particular series, on which you have offered no insight so far. postdlf (talk) 15:37, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
                • However, Wikipedia:Notability_(media)#Programming does say that "the presence or absence of reliable sources is more definitive than the geographic range of the program's audience alone". Surely you don't expect a new editor to offer "insights" that you haven't thought of yourself? Deb (talk) 15:58, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
                  • The policies I'm talking about are WP:ATD and WP:PRESERVE, as well as WP:BEFORE. See also WP:SPLIT, WP:LISTPURP, and WP:STANDALONE for relevant guidelines here. I don't know what point you're trying to make, but what I expect is everyone to try harder. postdlf (talk) 16:39, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
                    • It's extremely difficult to follow what you are trying to say or understand what you are trying to achieve. If you have an opinion as to whether the article should be kept or deleted, please state it instead of obscuring your meaning with wikijargon. It's basic etiquette. If the new user was familiar with every individual policy, he would be a bureaucrat (and I'm sure you wouldn't like that). If you can't participate constructively in the discussion he is trying to have, in language he can understand, you may as well not be here. Deb (talk) 17:00, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to get content deleted, you need some foundation in relevant policy and guidelines, understanding of the subject matter, and some basic due diligence on the content's potential and its history here. I've pointed out twice that the past AFDs are listed and linked to on the talk page (which no one but me had looked at, apparently), so why you thought (as you commented above) you had to search for them by title is unclear. I've also linked to the relevant procedure for every step that should be followed before nominating an article for deletion so you and the other editor can educate yourselves, in addition to a number of relevant policies and guidelines that you and they should read and become familiar with (those hyperlinked acronyms are not decorative, and they are mere "wikijargon" only if you have not actually clicked on them and read those pages to understand them and how to apply them). I've even attempted to point the discussion in a direction that would be more fruitful, one more focused on an understanding of the subject matter (which no one has really talked about). Short of writing everyone's comments/arguments for them, I don't know how much more handholding I can do. postdlf (talk) 22:20, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please don't bother, especially if you are not going to lodge a vote. Deb (talk) 09:29, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The AVGN episode list should be kept, following the same merits as traditional television or other notable web series. It was also a notable show on GameTrailers, and having the episodes dates (GT release versus YT release) is very helpful. I'm not a fan of the show for its cussing, but there's no denying that AVGN is one of the leaders in the retro gaming community. I encourage others to find good sources to sustain this episode list. --LABcrabs (talk) 17:38, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above, I see no argument presented that would justify overturning the past consensus on this page that it is an appropriate WP:SPLIT, and no argument at all that is rooted in a demonstrated understanding of the subject (as would be necessary to have a meaningful discussion of the merits of splitting). The episodes are reliable sources for their own content so I don't see an inherent issue with sourcing either. And as the series as a whole is indisputably notable, and the episodes comprise the series, this would then also pass WP:LISTN. There is no need for the episodes to be independently notable such that they would merit their own articles. The whole motivation for the nomination seems to be a new editor complaining about what they think was inconsistent treatment of other content, i.e. WP:WAX. postdlf (talk) 18:24, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Postdlf: I love the hypocrisy of experienced editors choices. List of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes is fine, while any attempt to split the page Nostalgia Critic is detested, as they have the same exposure in the media. Go ahead, allow list of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes to remain without sufficuent references, but lets all fight to prevent ANY episode list page for Nostalgia Critic. He is just some random guy no one knows, we don't need lists for his reviews, especially the crossover episodes he had WITH AVGN! Whatever, you are supreme leader, what you experienced editors say is always right. Cardei012597 (talk) 20:25, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
          • I've had no involvement with that other subject; you should be talking to whatever other editor(s) participated in that decision rather than targeting other articles. postdlf (talk) 21:05, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Its a valid content fork. Be it the internet or television, a notable show can have an article listing its episodes if its too long to fit comfortably in its main article. I watch most television shows over the internet from their official websites or various services instead of on a television. These episodes are as long as those made for television would be.

  • Keep - Regional enclosed shopping malls are notable enough for their own articles. This mall is covered in local newspaper/television sources (such as here). Dough4872 23:42, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Regional enclosed shopping malls are notable enough for their own articles. You are kidding right? Based on what criterion of WP:N to you get that? There are countless completely insignificant malls all over the world. Do we honestly need an article on every mall? Wikipedia is not Yelp. --David Tornheim (talk) 23:49, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Enclosed malls are generally the major retail center for a population area and can draw shoppers from miles away. Yes, we don't need articles for every strip mall as they are a dime a dozen in any city or town whereas most smaller cities or towns only have a single enclosed mall. Dough4872 23:56, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Our purpose is not to draw shoppers to big retailers. We are not here to promote (WP:PROMO) products, services, sales, create jobs, fix the economy, etc. Again what part of our guidelines on notability (WP:N) leads you to claim that Regional enclosed shopping malls are notable enough for their own articles.? --David Tornheim (talk) 00:10, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Regional enclosed shopping malls are major landmarks in the cities and towns they are located in, as they attract shoppers from miles around and generate tax revenue and jobs for the community. Malls like these are often covered in secondary sources such as newspapers and television stations as they are a major part of the community they serve. Dough4872 01:17, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • From WP:GEOFEAT: Buildings, including private residences and commercial developments may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability. Even million-sqft malls need secondary sources. The KPLC-TV article is borderline. If the mall is so important, it needs more reliable sources to attest to that. • Gene93k (talk) 12:20, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If you look through the search results on Google, this mall is covered in secondary sources. The link I provided is just an example. Dough4872 19:39, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Google search results are filled with store locators, directory/map listings, announcements and store opening and closings. None of this qualifies as significant coverage. The search also yielded one significant article in American Press and a one-paragraph book mention. Other news coverage comes under the routine fight-at-the-mall category. The mall needs multiple significant secondary sources that attest to its importance. • Gene93k (talk) 23:27, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. we've been fighting about these ever since I came to WP 12 years ago. There have been various proposals which never passed, but there seems to be a rough line of between 500,0000b and 1,000,000 sq ft. this is in the middle. the deciding factor for me is the misleading "serves 217,000 shoppers. " It doesn't. It has a demographic area of 217,000 potential shoppers whom it might serve. . As for formal criteria, most of the refs are from the company, DGG ( talk ) 02:11, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
DGG Thanks for the comment. I was about to ask your thoughts on malls and WP:PROMO. Now I don't have to.  :) --David Tornheim (talk) 06:02, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Non notable mall, not enough coverage in independent, secondary sources. Ajf773 (talk) 22:37, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Without getting into the debate on malls in general, this particular mall seems to be a notable geographic feature. No surprise then that I have found sufficient sources to establish notability, which I have added to the article.--Pontificalibus 10:22, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • The references added are brief mentions, routine business coverage and store closings. None of them constitute significant coverage. • Gene93k (talk) 14:19, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Routine business coverage is fine as long it is more than a brief mention. This is because we are aiming to satisfy WP:GEOLAND not WP:NCORP, therefore what constitutes significant coverage is dictated by WP:SIGCOV, not WP:CORPDEPTH. The Lake Charles book clearly highlights the mall's social and economic impact, and we have several sources where the mall "is more than a trivial mention" and is covered "directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content". This satisfies the WP:SIGCOV neded for WP:NBUILD.--Pontificalibus 14:43, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Pontificalibus I appreciate the extensive research, and considered changing my vote. However, I am inclined to agree with Gene93k that it is routine business coverage. I don't see it is as WP:GEOLAND--the mall is definitely a business. A number of the references are not WP:SECONDARY:
Secondary:
  • "Prien Lake Mall opens today in Lake Charles". The Eunice News. 13 April 1972. p. 7.
  • Jessica Hutchings. Lake Charles. Arcadia Publishing. pp. 8, 15, 19. ISBN 9781467113281.
  • "Prien Lake Mall experiencing growth with new stores". KPLCTV. 23 October 2013. Retrieved 5 January 2019. -- But this sounds more like an advertisement / WP:PROMO.
Trivial Secondary:
This mall not mentioned at all, hence WP:OR:
Primary (or self-created):
Broken:
If this article does get saved, I intend to delete the WP:OR, WP:PRIMARY and broken link. I would like to hear what others thing about some of the WP:RS that was added.
--David Tornheim (talk) 16:34, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to take you up on the statement that you "don't see it is as WP:GEOLAND--the mall is definitely a business." because I think it's important to look that before taking a view on sources. It is true the mall is a business: the business of renting out a building to multiple retailers. This does not mean that is not also a place, a geographic feature that is a local landmark. Indeed, WP:GEOLAND specifically includes commercial developments. There are even plenty of non-commercial geographic features that are run as a business, for example charging for entry. This does not mean they should be judged under WP:CORPDEPTH.
For WP:GEOLAND the bar is lower because Wikipedia also functions as a gazetteer. GEOLAND states "sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it do establish notability". This is the depth of coverage required. It is more than a trvial mention but not much more.--Pontificalibus 20:30, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A previous PROD for this article was removed by an editor without comment.

I can't find confirmation that this writer meets any of the criteria listed at WP:CREATIVE. I came up empty handed when I tried to find reliable sources despite using a number of combinations of the subject's name and works.

  • Delete, and I'm going to go so far as to say that I suspect this is a nearly ten-years-idle hoax article, created in 2009 by a drive-by contributor with no other impact on the project. Nothing in this article appears anywhere. Searches for the putative subject's name, in various combinations with his country or professions offer nothing but obvious false positives. His internationally famous book? Nothing. The "movement" he co-founded? Nothing. There are quite a few people named "Federico Gude" but none with any connection to reporting on Salvadorean literature. Living in the Street is a challenging search term, but I can't find any evidence that there was ever a Chilean magazine by that name. Lengua larga (literally: long tongue) is a Spanish metaphor for gossip, so it's at least a plausible name for a periodical. However, there's no evidence of a Revista Lengualarga with that precise name, anywhere. Indeed, the only magazine named Lengua Larga predating this article's creation for which I can find any evidence at all is a 1980s Uruguyan erotic magazine...

I wonder why it was created. Perhaps there is a Carlos Godofredo Regalado that this was intended to be a joke about. However, hopefully, not the one which is the subject of this March 2010 poem, which, as translated to English, says: [8]

It didn't when the last two deletion discussions occurred, and it still doesn't. The one review it had was a user review. The rest are brief mentions in discussions about the band.

  • Delete I merged List of population centers by latitude and List of population centers by longitude to this since they were basically identical, and then removed all "population centers" (which includes research bases apparently) with populations under 1000 people. That was reverted for unclear reasons, exemplifying the indiscriminate nature of this list. The reverter claimed it's because people use the list to see what the northernmost and southernmost places are, but that only highlights how indiscriminate this is by listing a handful of tiny villages but not other, larger polar settlements (and there are other articles for that). Anyway, I don't see the value of a page that simply lists coordinates of a huge number of random places since that's not really something people need to sort by. I fail to see why this list should be on Wikipedia because infoplease.com and priceoftravel.com have their own indiscriminate listings of coordinates, no one claimed this was OR... Maybe others can propose including coordinates at List of largest cities or something (List of United States cities by population has it). Reywas92Talk 19:53, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • The list is discriminate, it's just not properly defined. The lede says it's a "list of cities," but the title calls it a "list of population centers." You also have northernmost settlements. I don't think it's correct to say people use this just for northernmost/southernmost purposes, either. It helps you identify spatial relationships between cities on different latitudes. The article should be kept, moved to "List of cities by coordinates," and any row with less than a certain population threshold removed. SportingFlyer T·C 20:13, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the purpose and focus on this list is not clear beyond its duplication of the two articles noted by the two !votes immediately above this one. It is diffiult to determine if a given city should or should not be included on the list.MadeYourReadThis (talk) 14:41, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It sounds like people's main complaint is that the list is not complete, given its definition, and hence that it becomes arbitrary what is in the list and what isn't. There are two ways of handling this: One is by reducing the scope of the list to only larger places. The other is to expand the list to make it more complete. For example, I would like to see it renamed to "List of settlements", and covering the coordinates and population of all settlements in Wikipedia. Why do I prefer that to plain deletion or the reduction in scope? Because the end result is more useful: With population present in the list, anybody can apply whatever population threshold they wish themselves. However, if people think such a list would be too hard to make and maintain, then my second choice would be to reduce it to a list of cities like SportingFlyer suggests. Amaurea (talk) 15:10, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • So your way to fix the arbitrariness is by setting an arbitrary cutoff size? Your way to address the length issue is to make it longer by including not only cities, but anything down to settlements? Clarityfiend (talk) 07:47, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • An arbitrary cutoff size (by defining either "population centers" or "cities") would, in fact, make the list discriminate... SportingFlyer T·C 07:58, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for the exact reason we don't have a List of cities - it is necessarily indiscriminate. The information is on other pages (every article on a city contains lat/long).

Biography, not sourced well enough to clear the notability bar, of a person notable only as mayor of a small village which has long since been annexed as a city neighbourhood. This basically dispatches her work in politics (i.e. the stuff that's relevant to whether she's notable enough for an article or not) with simple statements that she held political roles, while saying literally nothing about any significant or noteworthy accomplishments in those roles, and instead concentrates much more strongly on purely biographical details that have no bearing on her notability either way -- and it's referenced to just two pieces of local media coverage: one obituary, and one article about her initial election as mayor. But that's not enough coverage to make a smalltown mayor special, because every mayor of anywhere can always show at least as much coverage as that. And being the first woman to hold an otherwise non-notable role is not a notability freebie that automatically makes her special, either -- if this had made her the first woman to get elected as a mayor anywhere in Canada, then that would mean something, but she was neither the first in Canada (see Barbara Hanley) nor even the first in Ontario (see Barbara Hanley again, and then take a side trip through Marjorie Hamilton and Charlotte Whitton before coming back here...and that's just who I know about), but merely (tied for) the first in her own county. That's not significant enough to make a woman mayor a special notability case on the basis of being a woman, but the sourcing here isn't strong enough to make her notable on the basis of being a mayor either.

Pre-megacity Metro Council isn't an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of enough media coverage to get her over WP:NPOL #3 — the Metro-to-Megacity relationship doesn't work that way under our inclusion criteria. We don't care what the boundaries of the unit became 35 years after she left office, we care what the boundaries of the unit were while she was in office — so metro councillors in the 1960s don't get retroactively massaged into "global city" councillors just because metro got amalgamated into the city in 1998. She has to clear the notability standard for county councillors, which still requires a lot more media coverage about her than this shows even now, and does not turn into a "Toronto City Councillor" just because metro became city 25 years after she was already dead.

A proof of the atomic model was the discovery of Helium in the sun, before having it at our fingertip on Earth. A proof of the group machinery was the prevision of the Omega particle. And so on.

I have serious doubts the subject meets WP:NBIO. The only possible notable achievement may be having a high rank (CAO) in a major NGO, but still, CAO is not CEO, and I don't think CAOs are auto-notable. There is some in-depth coverage, ex. [16] in Crosscut.com, but even that one is half-interview, and that's about it - other stories about her like [17] seem nearly total self-authored per WP:INTERVIEW if not worse as in press releases ([18]). The Crosscut award ([19]) also doesn't seem sufficient for notability. Maybe if all of those are added together, but still, this is a borderline case that would benefit from further comments from the community. Personally I don't see sufficient evidence of notability, so my nom vote is 'delete'. Thoughts? PS. The creator of this article, Ottawahitech is indef-blocked, with a note saying that nearly a 1000 of their articles have been deleted. Not that it should prejudice us... much. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 14:32, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. You are leaving out (and the article as it stands barely mentions) her main notability. She served two terms on the 9-member Seattle City Council (and was, by the way, the first Korean American ever to serve on the council). Because the city council is only 9 people for a city of over half a million, I'd say that any elected member of the council is de facto notable (not so sure about people appointed to fill out a term who don't run for reelection, but that's not relevant here). Further, as mentioned at https://crosscut.com/2016/10/martha-choe-lifetime-achievement-2016-courage-awards, she was director of the Washington State Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development (later Department of Commerce), the state-level equivalent of a cabinet position. In short: this article needs a bunch of work, but she is certainly notable. - Jmabel | Talk 16:30, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NPOL does not suggest city councilors are auto-notable. Her bio is, as I said, a lot of near misses on notability. Too local / low level of a politician, executive, received awards or coverage. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 19:34, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nor being the first Korean American to hold the office? Nor later being head of a statewide gov't department? Are you saying that even the Crosscut source I cited still doesn't bring her up to notability? - Jmabel | Talk 23:25, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Crosscut.com is a good source, but it is regional so it's a fairly weak argument for notability. It would be useful to show that her work is discussed in academic or national publications. And also to hsow that in one of her various positions she had a significant or enduring impact on something. User:Jmabel, it may be that there is notability here, but someone would have to do the work to WP:HEYMANN by showing coverage and/or impact - preferably both.E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:48, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
*Not unless there was widespread media coverage of the fact. We have a lot of immigrant groups in the U.S., and 50 states.

WP:BLP of a person notable only as the mayor of a midsize city which is not large or prominent enough to confer an automatic presumption of notability on all of its mayors just because they exist. The only reference cited here at all, however, is a single news article in the local community weekly newspaper about an all-candidates election debate, which certainly mentions Marchand but isn't about him to any non-trivial degree. Mayors of cities in this size bracket are not "inherently" notable, so the key to getting them over the bar is not just to single-source their existence to one local news article -- in a city this size, the ticket to notability for a mayor is to show a depth and range and volume of sourcing that marks him out as a special case of significantly greater notability than most other mayors of cities this size, not just single-sourcing his existence the way absolutely every mayor of anywhere can always do.

Fails GNG and WP:NACTOR. This page has been speedily deleted three times: March 2015, January 2018, February 2018. A PROD was contested, but I believe still fails GNG. The references mention the subject, but do not create adequate notability for the subject: they're references to projects he has worked on or fail as independent (a tweet, a Facebook page, links to the projects themselves). In fairness, the strongest source is likely this one [25] but it's again focused on the project rather than the subject himself. I don't see a way to get to "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions" or "unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment." 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 07:24, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. A journalist is not notable because they've published articles in reliable sources, or been quoted in reliable sources, unless there is significant coverage of them as a subject in multiple reliable sources. Qwfp (talk) 20:22, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, without question. 2015 is long ago so not sure what the situation was with that speedy deletion. As for the ones in 2018, I can only imagine it was for a lack of references & citations. I’d only imagine this was the case beacause all the references that are in the current-day article have been written after the dates of those speedy deletions. As it stands currently, I believe there to be a respectable amount of references.

It’s hard to pin down exactly what he does, but it seems to be a mix of journalism, comedy and acting. I thought that the most sensible thing for me to do before moving this article into the mainspace would’ve been to compare him to other VICE Hosts (something that he’s most notable for). To be completely honest, comparing this article to those, this ones comes out on top. It’s very comprehensive and fleshed out.

I’d recommend you go over the strongest source that you mentioned. ([26]) While I do agree that it’s about the project, I would stress that it’s his film that they’re writing about. He fronts it as an on-screen correspondent. The source is an article of an Evening Standard interview with him; he gave the journalist exclusive information about the documentary which without interviewing him wouldn’t have been possible to write. He’s quoted several times and the first photo in the article is a photo of him. It’s an interview and he is most certainly a main focus of it. To say it’s solely focused on the project and not the subject himself isn’t wholly true, I believe.

Moreover, I’m not sure how you’ve reached the decision that he’s "failed GNG & WP:NACTOR".

Upon reviewing his IMDb page, there does seem to be significant roles in multiple notable films and certainly television shows, including EastEnders, The Legend of Dick and Dom and Nuzzle and Scratch.

Another one of the criteria listed on WP:NACTOR is for individuals to have “a large fan base or a significant “cult” following”. His Twitter and Instagram following, along with the views acquired on his series, does show this to be the case.

I do honestly believe you were rushed to nominate this article for deletion because of the fact that it was thrice speedily deleted, which is completely understandable. But after carefully checking sources and references I think this is a solid article. I wouldn’t have moved it into the mainspace otherwise :-). — Preceding unsigned comment added by JennaAlford (talkcontribs) 23:52, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No coverage beyond mere-mention in reliable sources, does not meet WP:GNG. While the article includes a very long filmography, almost all of the entries are uncited claims of the subject working as an editor. The subject was also nominated for an EMMY three times for producing the Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade, but never won. The few directorial credits are for short films that do not appear to be themselves notable, and for some television shows and specials of dubious notability (the most notable appears to be The High Court with Doug Benson)–all in all, I don't think this body of work satisfies WP:NDIRECTOR in the absence of solid coverage in reliable sources. Could just be WP:TOOSOON, as the subject's pivot to directorial work only happened a few years ago. signed, Rosguill talk 21:55, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question Wouldn't three EMMY nominations satisfy WP:ANYBIO, #1 "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times." ? RebeccaGreen (talk) 01:07, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
My original impulse was that it wasn't a particularly important EMMY and thus didn't warrant recognition on those grounds. However, I just tried to go to the EMMY website, which lists nominees and winners for all awards, and can't seem to find any of the awards that the subject was supposedly nominated for. Unless someone can actually find a source saying that the subject was nominated for these awards (which may not even exist), I'd say it's a moot point. However, if these nominations did in fact occur, I'd be willing to reconsider their notability. In light of the sources found by RebeccaGreen and added to the article, it appears that the subject was nominated as part of a team of two other editors plus a supervising editor. I'm honestly not sure whether that should be enough to meet WP:ANYBIO or not and will leave it open to discussion by others. signed, Rosguill talk 01:36, 2 January 2019 (UTC)01:42, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reason Porridge (talk) 07:46, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article appears to be a self-promotion of a hobby runner and "wikimedia personality". The athletic achievements are nowhere near notable (for reference, his listed personal best would not even have qualified for this year's Boston Marathon), and as an athlete, the Erokhin clearly does not come close to meeting any of the relevant notability criteria.

I referred to the runner's strava profile to point out that he appears to use this Wikipedia article for self-promotion there. I understand that trolling on one platform may not be a valid reason for deletion here.
Also, if he ran the 1200 km through Sakhalin, why is that not mentioned in the article? The only reference I could find is that he somehow crossed managed to cross it in 20 days, hardly a noteworthy achievement (for comparison, the Appalachian_Trail is about 3 times as long (3500 km), and has been completed in 41 days). Porridge (talk) 22:50, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No one before run through Sakhalin (with such documentation), this is the achievement. The Sakhalin run was held with support of local government and mass media, this was a wide-promoted public action which has value besides marathon record. And Erokhin has made several such actions, not a single one. Yes you may be correct that the article lacked proper mention of it, with such sources, because some data were inserted too early and were not updated later. This is a good reason to raise concerns on talk page, not to nominate for deletion. --ssr (talk) 11:26, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The 20-day run through Sakhalin may be a first, but it is not a notable athletic achievement. As pointed out above, it does not compare to contemporary performances over similar or greater distance by real athletes. Running the length of Sakhalin is an arbitrary choice, and if a runner were the first to run, say, from Lisboa to Paris, from Helsinki to Moscow, or from Sicily to the Brenner pass, it would not make them notable either. Coverage by Russia Beyond does not confer notability. For example, Runners World runs multi-page features on other hobby runners every month - it does not make them notable athletes. Porridge (talk) 13:33, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As I said before, the achievement is not "athletic". Russia Beyond is an example of rare English source, preferable are numerous Russian sources. You seem to judge only for sports, but the subject is not a regular sports competitor (as I said before and you seem to ignore). --ssr (talk) 13:38, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Statement related to Strava profile has no relation to the activity of the sportsman and is just personal opinion. As for the marathon runner notability criteria, it is not necessary to take part in Boston Marathon to be ultramarathon runner; the person participated in different Russian marathons. Mark Ekimov (talk) 13:57, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that the runner has participated in marathons does not make him noteworthy. I only referred to the Boston marathon as a relatively well-known standard for hobby runners, of course, taking part in the Boston marathon does not confer notability either (10s of thousands of runners do that every year). The runner in question is simply nowhere near notable, has never participated in or qualified for an international championship, has never placed at or won a major race (whether a standard distance or an ultra / trail race), or achieved anything else athletically that would be notable according the standards set by Wikipedia.

GNG Fail. Most mentions of her are of the form "Svetlana Reingold, the exhibit's curator, told...", which is an example of someone doing their job, rather than something that would create notability. There are one of two in-depth sources at most, which is not enough to establish GNG. Curator notability is tricky, as they are usually non-notable people organizing exhibitions and collections of extremely notable persons. Curators can certainly be notable, but in this case the coverage does not meet our requirements of having breadth, not being inherited from another subject, and being in-depth.

One in-depth source, a Youtube video and an exhibition description page do not come anywhere near close to meeting WP:ARTIST. Having a high-level art job does nothing for notability; you have to undertake activities that generate coverage, by doing something notable. For comparison, have a look at the career of Hans Ulrich Obrist, who is a hugely notable curator. Or Tatzu Nishi, whose article I have been working on and had little trouble finding 40+ more sources to establish his contribution to the field of public art. Both meet WP:ARTIST by virtue of contributions to the field and extensive coverage. In this case though we have barely more than one in-depth source.

  • Keep. Per WP:NOTDUP, "better served as a category" is not a valid argument. None of the bullet points at WP:INDISCRIMINATE appear to apply here and it's apparently not indiscriminate either because it clearly only lists musicians that are a) notable enough to have their own article and b) made video game music. Additionally, with the list people can easily see why a certain musician is notable and which games they worked on, something a category can't offer. Last but not least, List of film score composers does actually exist. Regards SoWhy 08:58, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Clearly not indiscriminate. Passes NLIST. Even if stripped down to the basics (which I'm not advocating for), it's a perfectly reasonable navigational list. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:11, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rework - I do not believe the list breaks any policies, but I also do not think it serves any purpose in its current state. It does not provide the reader any information nor does it aid in navigation. I think these faults are primarily because there is a large scope of anyone that has worked on video game music, and there are no helpful characteristics to sort by (nationalities, birth/death date, employer). My suggestion: Retitle the article "List of notable video game composers", reduce scope to composers with their own articles (no sound programmers etc.), and include the sortable characteristics I mentioned which would make the list useful.

  • Note, however, WP:INHERIT: "Individuals in close, personal relationships with famous people (including politicians) can have an independent article even if they are known solely for such a relationship, but only if they pass WP:GNG."

Nom appears to not be aware of this policy. Article can certainly be expanded with a discussion of her writing. But Nom and others should be aware that even spouses with no independent achievement, say, Jeanette Rubio, or Todd Palin, can be notable by our standards.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:47, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Remember that moment in the early fall of 2016 when it actually looked not inconceivable that Libertarian Gary Johnson had a shot at the White House? And, therefore, that Leslie Marshall might move into the Naval Observatory. It generated press. We do keep articles about political spouses who get WP:SIGCOV. SIGCOV, in Marshall's case, includes having written a novel that was very widely reviewed. The section on the novel could be expanded from the many book reviews on the page.E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:13, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Meets WP:AUTHOR - those are substantial reviews of the book, whether positive or not, plus a substantial article about her as the wife of a candidate.

  • Weak Keep I done a quick web search and there are a fair amount of results for this player. He has been playing for a long time, I feel the article needs improving, not deleting. Govvy (talk) 23:54, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • The search results fall under WP:ROUTINE. It's normal that he appears in tournament entries and such. However these don't demonstrate notability.Tvx1 15:35, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Does not meet any WP:Nsport or Tennis Project Guidelines. Has he played on the men's ATP tour... no. Has he won a minor league tournament... no. Has he even won a non-notable minor-minor league tournament... nope. He's one of a million wannabe players so far in his career that has no notability except perhaps in few small Canoas newspapers.

  • Delete This is nothing but a promotion for someone's podcast. Unsourced except for the external link to the podcast, no reliable independent sources found for it and no claim to notability other than its mere existence. Possibly even an A7 speedy. Meters (talk) 02:32, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • The talk page comment and the article edit summary by the article creator This page was created so that there would be no confusion over the name when searching for it in a search engine. speaks to the promotional aspect of this page. Meters (talk) 02:37, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Self promotion? There are many ways to self promote and Wikipedia is not really one of them. With all the social media options out there, Wikipedia should really be a last desperate attempt to promote. I can see that this is a community that is very passionate about the integrity of Wikipedia and I commend you all on that. However, I do not agree that this article was created for self promotion. It was simply created to differentiate itself from other search engine results that may have the same name in the search. Fglavan —Preceding undated comment added 03:07, 15 January 2019 (UTC) Note to closing admin: Fglavan (talkcontribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD. [reply]
  • Delete as Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion (see WP:NOTPROMO), including attempts to manipulate search results by creating articles. Bakazaka (talk) 03:27, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • If the article is considered to be self promotion, then why do other podcasts and tv shows that deal with similar subject matter have an article on Wikipedia? The ESPN show Skipp and Shannon Undisputed for instance has its own Wikipedia article that appears on google search results. I don’t consider it to be self promotion, and I don’t consider my article to be self promotion in the same way.

    • Please sign your talk page posts with 4 tildes, like this ~~~~ . No-one said "self promotion". We said that the article is promotional, meaning that it seems to serve no purpose but to promote the subject of the article, which is the podcast. Your comments suggest that you may be involved with the podcast If this is the case please confirm this, and read WP:COI. Meters (talk) 04:42, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Correction : It seems I fell for the old "false link" trick in the Languages bar. An editor linked the contested article to the French-language article for the Université de Versailles-Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, which is notable and already has its own article in this Wikipedia. Which is why I found & posted up those links; they are about the university. This AfD, however, is about merely a laboratory run by the university, a lab that possesses no notability at all on its own. (There isn't an article about the lab in the French-language Wikipedia.) My suggestion therefore for the actual contested article is a Strong Delete. -The Gnome (talk) 17:59, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
