  • Keep The article would greatly benefit from additional sourcing, but it would appear that WP:NSINGER is met based on "Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart." and additional coverage. Alansohn (talk) 20:51, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Delete The keep vote above cites the fact that she charted meets WP:SINGER, but there is no source that verifies which R&B chart she made. A word search of her recording name, real name, and title of the song turned up nothing on Billboard. I'm unaware of a search functions for Cashbox or other RS charts, but in absence of a source that rules out WP:BADCHART, there's nothing that backs up the claim. Her own website states the song charted but, again, does not specify which chart, only that the video for the song has 3 million views on YouTube. Otherwise, the artist was signed to a notable label, but dropped without any apparent success. Two articles are cited as sources. One is a dead link, the other a local paper. I did turn up a "next big thing" puff piece in Vibe [1] that indicates some measure of hype, but without accompanying success that indicates she "made it," I don't think she is encyclopedic worthy. A google search for additional possibilities turns up a few hits that are mirrors of this wikipage, as well as reference list or two noting her career as a model. Unless more sources can be found--or clarification on which chart she made--it's a no vote for me. ShelbyMarion (talk) 22:11, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - per ShelbyMarion's arguments, and also no indication that she has significant success. This is 2019, her supposed 4 songs were 2007-2010. She does not stand the test of time. Her YouTube channel has no activity since 6 years ago. She apparently never had a breakthrough and isn't doing music any more, so why should we expect her notability to increase? starship.paint (talk) 05:24, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge and trim into the main Darksiders (series) article, which argubly can do with a bit of narrative premise and characters. Not all the characters will survive this, but certainly most of them. --Masem (t) 22:30, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Masem, I have considered merging, but none of the content seems properly sourced. --MrClog (talk) 22:37, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't have enough time with the series as a whole to be able to comment, but we certainly can turn to reviews of the games to establish characters, or for example this Polygon article can be used to briefly describe War. I'm talking one or two line descriptions on the frachrise page, along with brief plot summaries of each game. Also keep in mind: information that is not transformative from primary fictional works do not need to be sourced (but if they can be, they should be), but that information should be as concise as possible. In terms of this list, the whole set of characters from Darksiders is no way notable on their own, and thus just relocating that to a notable video game series is reasonable. --Masem (t) 22:51, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • I would also not be opposed to the TNT/REFUND idea given that 1) there's past copyvios in this history and 2) none of the text is really "unique" and certainly not pulling from non-primary sources. It would be different if there was some unique secondary coverage included, but there really isn't. --Masem (t) 14:40, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per TNT. If someone wants to create a sourced version then let them do it in a draft and resubmit.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 02:26, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge' with Darksiders (series), it has room in it there so no need for separate articles. Dream Focus 04:42, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Would you also agree to the proposal below? --MrClog (talk) 20:12, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    No. Just replace the article with a redirect and tell people to merge over whatever they want to exist in the other article. Be able to check the history and see if anything else is worth saving. No need adding extra steps to the process. Dream Focus 21:23, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • (comment by nom) Because the text needs some work before it should be included, I suggest deleting it but WP:REFUNDing it if an editor volunteers to work on it in their userspace. — Masem and Zxcvbnm agree on doing this. --MrClog (talk) 06:40, 24 July 2019 (UTC); edited 21:47, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. The policy arguments on the delete side make a substantial case that the sourcing here is extremely thin. Furthermore, the one keep vote even noted there was a significant amount of non-notable material here. Taken together, the policy arguments are much stronger in favor of deletion.

Timeline of LGBT history in Alberta[edit]

Timeline of LGBT history in Alberta (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Content fork of Timeline of LGBT history in Canada, with no clear reason why a separate province-specific list is needed. This comprises far too many events that aren't important or noteworthy at all, including the founding dates of gay-straight alliances at individual high schools, the sexual orientations of unsuccessful and therefore non-notable individual candidates in provincial legislature and city council elections, municipal proclamations of local Pride Weeks (and not just the first time, either, but the annual repetition of every time, even long after such things have become entirely uncontroversial and routinely expected), minor fundraising galas, the hirings of non-notable individual contributors to Calgary's local LGBT publication, and other such unencyclopedic WP:TRIVIA — and while some events are genuinely important (e.g. Vriend v Alberta), virtually all of those are already reflected in the Canada timeline, and if the national timeline is actually missing any genuinely important Alberta events, those can easily be added to it. Furthermore, I can find no evidence that any other Canadian province or American state has its own dedicated LGBT history timeline as a separate topic from the national one, and there's no credible reason why Alberta should stand out as a topic of special treatment denied any other state or province. There's simply no need for this to be forked out from the national Canada timeline at all. Bearcat (talk) 17:40, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So I feel like you don't understand the significance of queer and trans and two-spirit history and don't understand that of the many many entries in the main Canadian LGBT history page take place in Toronto and Montreal exclusively. Only eleven of the events from this article are featured in the heavily Ontario and Quebec centric main article. This means there is a dearth of regional representation, which this article is aiming to combat. LGBT history happens outside of two cities and we have to have this kind of representation out there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Klaas89 (talkcontribs) 19:50, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a gay man myself, so kindly stuff your presuppositions about what I do or don't "understand" the significance of in your nearest garbage can. Trust me, I've got way more to teach you about queer history than you'll ever have to teach me. (Just as a frex, if you think I've got some kind of bias against non-Toronto topics, you might want to take a gander at who started our articles about the Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Saskatoon and Winnipeg Prides, most of the LGBT film festivals across Canada, western-based queer/trans writers like Michael V. Smith and Raziel Reid and Colin Thomas and Janine Fuller and Persimmon Blackbridge and Casey Plett and Amber Dawn and Nancy Jo Cullen and Debra Anderson and Carellin Brooks, and activists like Delwin Vriend and Jim Egan.)
If there are any important events missing from the Canada list, you're more than free to add them to it at any time. But kindly note that "important events" does not include the sexual orientations of unsuccessful candidates for political office who aren't historic firsts, the annual relisting of every city's local pride festival anytime after the first, the establishment of individual high schools' local GSAs, non-notable people joining the staffs of non-notable magazines, LGBTQ organizations simply changing their names, the opening or closure of every individual Priape location as a separate entry from the bankruptcy of the Priape chain as a whole, every individual grand marshal of every Pride parade every year, and on and so forth. Too many of the things listed here are entirely unimportant trivia, and the ones that are genuinely important enough to be noted are all either (a) already in the Canada list, or (b) easily addable to the Canada list if properly sourced as significant. Nobody said "queer history only happens in Toronto and Montreal" — for starters, Toronto and Montreal don't have their own dedicated queer history timelines separate from the Canadian one either, the only thing they have is more people actually adding stuff to the national list than other cities or provinces have yet (and I personally add west-based events to it all the time, if they're properly sourceable as significant). It's not a reason why Alberta needs its own Alberta-specific list; it's a reason to contribute to the improvement of the national list with additional properly sourced entries about notable events. Bearcat (talk) 18:38, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Looking through RS, I find enough historical info to justify this article passing GNG as well as enough specific to Alberta to justify this page not being merged to the Candian LGBT timeline page. There are multiple sections in these books here, here and here specific to this topic. There are also many RS news articles covering historical LGBT events in Alberta with discussions of their lasting impacts. As for other provinces/states not having their own articles, that is not an indication of whether this particular article passes wikipedia guidelines. Instead it just means that articles for other provinces may likely pass GNG as well and be welcome additions to wikipedia if someone were to make them. Rab V (talk) 23:32, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I do want to agree with Bearcat though that I think some entries on the timeline as currently written may not be notable enough or may need more support from RS. But as a whole, that is better solved by editing the article since there is enough on this topic to justify the article not being deleted. Rab V (talk) 23:39, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Bearcat and WP:Indiscriminate. It was stated that "There are multiple sections in these books here, here and here specific to this topic." Actually only the latter two of those books have table-of-contents level sections about Alberta specifically, and they each only have one. Of those, the first is more about activism than history, and the other is just part of a chapter and appears to be just about how Catholic schools in Alberta have addressed LGBT students. In no way is there significant coverage of LGBT history in Alberta as a topic in its own right. I don't see any justification for having separate articles on LGBT history for every province, state, city, etc. -Crossroads- (talk) 14:14, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

4-Ethylamphetamine[edit]

4-Ethylamphetamine does not appear to be a notable chemical compound. (All chemicals must meet WP:GNG to be included.) Although there are a few auto-generated database listings for this chemical, a Chemical Abstracts search turns up no sources in the chemical literature about this chemical compound. As far as I can tell, all mentions of "ethylamphetamine" refer to the related compound N-ethylamphetamine instead. -- Ed (Edgar181) 17:32, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment So @Edgar181:, I'm not an Orgo expert, but isn't 4-Ethylamphetamine simply an isomer of N-Ethylamphetamine, or Etilamfetamine? Utopes (talk) 23:21, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Utopes: 4-Ethylamphetamine and N-Ethylamphetamine (etilamfetamine) are isomers in the sense that they have the same molecular formula (C11H17N), but each has a different arrangement of atoms. As such, they are considered different, distinct chemical compounds. There are also more known chemical compounds with the same molecular formula. Some are notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia article and are listed at C11H17N; many others are not notable enough to have Wikipedia article. I'm proposing that 4-Ethylamphetamine falls into the group that are not notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia article. -- Ed (Edgar181) 10:49, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's a meaningless argument for keeping an article. One article merely being a different subject than another article isn't a reason to keep it. Articles must meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. ChemNerd (talk) 14:26, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Again, I think that's a meaningless argument for keeping an article. I could imagine hundreds of different derivatives of 2,5-Dimethoxy-4-ethylamphetamine. What would make any of them worthy of a Wikipedia article? ChemNerd (talk) 15:18, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • As a simple analogue of amphetamine, this specific compound does appear in a number of studies/publications, such as [2], [3],[4] and others (not in the abstracts), and therefore can be kept. My very best wishes (talk) 15:33, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • In regards to two out of three of those papers (de Jong et al and Katagi et al), you are mistaken. The compound mentioned is actually N-ethylamphetamine, not 4-ethylamphetamine. In the third paper (Caspar et al), 4-ethylamphetamine gets barely a passing mention in a listing of many chemical compounds. I don't see how that establishes notability. ChemNerd (talk) 15:54, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I found mentioning of specifically "4-ethylamphetamine" (not N-ethylamphetamine, 2,5-Dimethoxy-4-ethylamphetamine, etc.) in this sources using Google Scholar (there were more such sources) and did not check the actual articles. But whatever. The compound is not terribly important. My very best wishes (talk) 19:49, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. per the arguments of ChemNerd and Edgar, who are demonstrated subject experts.--Smokefoot (talk) 17:56, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I found one other literature hit for this structure (by SciFinder structure search): doi:10.1002/ps.2780440406 discusses its synthesis. I don't currently have full-text access to that article to know if it's just a bunch of analogs or reaction examples vs actually discussing the this specific compound in any notable way. So hold for a day or two while I look for a library with it. DMacks (talk) 18:07, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • In this paper, a few dozen target chemical compounds were prepared. 4-Ethylamphetamine appears as an intermediate in the synthesis of just one them. I'll email you a copy of the paper. -- Ed (Edgar181) 17:58, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article about former footballer who made a total of 2 appearances France's fully-pro Ligue 2. Although this appears to satisfy the bright-line of WP:NFOOTBALL, it does not because there is longstanding consensus that a footballer who played a minimal amount in a fully-pro league but comprehensively fails WP:GNG does not actually satisfy NFOOTBALL (see e.g., Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Phakamani Mngadi).

  • Delete I also cannot find any coverage of this website in independent secondary sources. I also reviewed the sources presented in the original AfD and none of them demonstrate notability either - forum posts, for instance. I'm happy to review any sources presented, but based on the previous AfD I'd be exceptionally wary of any !votes which claim notability without referencing any sources.

  • Delete I'll normally go pretty far to save an article . . . but there ain't no savin' this one at least based on what I can see from my WP:BEFORE. Just coverage on forums and the like or brief mentions elsewhere. I'd also support merging with World of Greyhawk just to WP:PRESERVE but the site really just isn't notable. FOARP (talk) 20:41, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I was also unable to find any reliable sources discussing this website. The prior AFD that resulted in Keep did so on the claim that the site itself could be used as a source to pass the GNG, which, of course, is not a valid argument at all. It does not appear to have ever been notable enough to either keep as a stand alone article, nor merged into any other article. Rorshacma (talk) 16:33, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This is indeed a long and rambling article — I'm only mildly exaggerating when I say it comes close to documenting each and every individual time Salmi ever sneezed. It's so absurdly long, in fact, that it pulls off the truly impressive trick of citing 83 footnotes and yet still somehow featuring incredibly long passages of completely unreferenced text — in far too many places, as well, it doesn't just describe what he did, but delves into directly quoting everything he or somebody else said about it verbatim, which is not how you write about people's activities in an encyclopedic manner.
    Yet, in all this length and detail, what it fails to do is demonstrate that any of his activities were encyclopedically noteworthy: attending city council meetings to lobby for a city to declare itself a nuclear-free zone is not a notability claim; activity in student government is not a notability claim; being a non-winning fringe party candidate for political office is not a notability claim; writing opinion pieces for hyperlocal community weekly newspapers is not a notability claim; and on and so forth. If he just recently wrote and published a book, even that isn't an instant notability freebie either — passing WP:AUTHOR is a matter of winning major literary awards and/or showing evidence of noteworthy literary critics reviewing the book in media, not just of stating that the book exists — but the book is almost certainly the reason why after 35 years of activity this article is suddenly happening now: this is almost certainly an advertorial attempt by either Salmi himself or his publisher to boost his public profile and sell more books by misusing Wikipedia as a publicity platform.
    As for WP:GNG, that isn't just a matter of counting up the footnotes and keeping anything that surpasses a certain arbitrary number: reference bombing is a thing, and it's a thing this article is definitely guilty of. Among these 83 footnotes, I count far too many tabloid newspapers, community and neighbourhood hyperlocals, "quote of the day" sidebars and glancing namechecks of his existence in articles which aren't about him to any non-trivial degree, none of which are types of sourcing that constitute support for notability — and once you discount all of those, the relatively few remaining sources that are actually about him to any non-trivial degree are purely local coverage in the Vancouver dailies in non-notable contexts. The notability test is not just "anybody who's gotten their name into the media X number of times for any reason whatsoever" — it tests the sources for their type and depth and geographic range, and for the context of what they're covering the subject for, so it is entirely possible for a person with 83 footnotes to still fail GNG even as a person with just two or three footnotes passes it.
    Publicity-seeking is not how you get a person into an encyclopedia — and even if he actually were notable, this article is so badly written that it would still have to be blown up and restarted from scratch anyway. Bearcat (talk) 13:16, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:HOAX, not that it meets this usual definition of WP:HOAX, but this is clearly a case of Salmi having a laugh at Wikipedia. Here is a typical headlines about a Salmi stunt: Vancouver Sun: Godzilla strikes back: Funster Brian Salmi is happy creating a bit of chaos in the mayoral elections, his mischief as monstrous as his nickname. Just to clear things up, some text: "A man who used to call himself Godzilla then later legally changed his name to Sa Tan to sound like "satan" is accusing the Yukon government of defaming his character. According to e-mails [Tan] sent to Yukon Supreme Court last week, he was asked by the department to review and revise a briefing note for Economic Development Minister Jim Kenyon on a proposed Alaska-Yukon railway. In Tan's recent political endeavours, such as bringing the Rhino Party to the Yukon and organizing public meetings against the city's smoking bylaw, Tan has gone by the name [Brian Salmi]." I suspect that we could have an article about Salmi. But this one is pretty clearly a Salmi stunt and, as Nom says, this is a violation of WP:NOT.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:15, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Probably keep - I would agree that the article could be improved, but internet searches do turn up some news and other results, though less than I would expect. In terms of notability the key issue is whether the post he holds makes him notable. I would lean towards suggesting that it does. I certainly do not think it could be argued that the office of Chief Fire Officer of the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service is not notable. In this position, he is in charge of the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service which is now the only fire service in Scotland and is the largest unified fire brigade in the United Kingdom. It is also a post of national significance as it is directly under the Scottish Government. Of course he has only been in the post a relatively short time, and I think this is a factor in why the coverage of him in the media to date has been relatively limited. Dunarc (talk) 22:49, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I would also say that someone holding a position of head of the fire (or police) service of a country of 5 million people should be presumed notable. I have just been looking at similar pages (eg Dany Cotton, Cressida Dick, the heads of the London fire and police services) - they have been in their positions longer, so there is more news about them (though not all yet reflected in Dany Cotton's article ....), but as the position has ultimate responsibility for deployment and decisions regarding the whole of the service, I would suggest that it is similar to WP:MILPEOPLE #3, "Held the top-level military command position of their nation's armed forces (such as Chief of the General Staff), or of a department thereof (such as Chief of Army Staff)".

The result was keep. This isn't only a matter of numbers, but the "delete" arguments are uncommonly weak. They basically only allege WP:NPOV problems, but do not indicate why only deletion (rather than editing the article) can resolve these problems. Neutrality, on Wikipedia, does not mean treating both sides in a controversy the same, but, rather, reflecting the views expressed in reliable sources. No substantial argument is made how the article is deficient in this regard, or how, if it is, this cannot be remedied by adding other reliably sourced points of view rather than by deleting the article. This applies also to the supposedly deficient coverage of similar issues in previous administrations. This perceived deficiency will not be remedied by deleting this article.

This is just a NPOV COATRACK disgrace of an article. If one truly wanted to make an article worthy of an encyclopedia, one would have need to TNT this and perhaps have a history section and mention OBAMA and his detention center and deportation. As it stands now, it just seems like yet again, another Trump article for the sake of Trump article. I get that we need to bash Trump, I do, but the bias in this article is just too heavy handed that I think even for Wikipedia it's too much.

  • Delete per nom. I agree with the article creator that there is room for an article of this kind, which there are plenty of RS for, and even though there exist many other articles in this genre such as Trump administration family separation policy, Migrant deaths along the Mexico-United States border, Operation Streamline etc. But according to this source (for example), the current president and his administration can simply not be the primary focus of this topic, although they do figure big in it. Let the article come back in another form under a generic name about border detentions spanning back 20 years, and include in it sections about each president and administration's policies since then for the sake of NPOV. StonyBrook (talk) 19:51, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    The Newsweek link you provided wrote: While conditions were poor under Obama's administration, some things appear to have grown worse during Trump's tenure. This source has now been cited in the article, and another source linked from it was also cited, with a new section on Trump administration migrant detentions#Comparison with past administrations. starship.paint (talk) 00:21, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    It's an improvement. But it doesn't address the fact that these detentions have been occurring on the watch of previous presidents, who are all sworn to secure the national borders. Isn't it better to have one article on their collective border enforcement records instead of the present one, Obama administration migrant detentions, etc? This source could be the starting point for Bush administration migrant detentions. StonyBrook (talk) 00:50, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    @StonyBrook: - if there were few sources on each administration's detentions, such that the article topic would not pass the WP:General notability guideline, but that collectively sources covering all administrations combined would pass the general notability guideline, then one article would be better. Right now the number of reliable sources (50, potentially more) on the topic easily establish that this is a noteworthy standalone topic. I read the NPR link you provided, I don't think there's a very strong link. The man said: once they're released, is that it takes years to hear their cases. - but this article is about conditions before release. starship.paint (talk) 01:03, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I get your point. But it does also say The arrival of single adults, as he says, across the border is not unusual compared to prior surges that occurred during the Obama administration. If your premise is that something extraordinary is happening with individual migrants under Trump, I don't see it. StonyBrook (talk) 01:12, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    @StonyBrook: - this article isn't Migrant numbers during the Trump administration. This article is chiefly about the detentions (not the migrations). Thus far, the sources I've seen are focusing on the detention conditions, which I believe, is the noteworthy issue here. starship.paint (talk) 01:18, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Also, to reply to your earlier point, we can have both this article and United States migrant detentions, but someone has to work on that. Oh, I just found out that Immigration detention in the United States exists. So that's that. starship.paint (talk) 01:22, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Changing my vote to keep after re-reading WP:SPINOFF. Trump article being diverted off the parent seems to be okay so long as the multiple sources are presented neutrally.

  • Delete Much of this article could be salvaged for other articles if made to comply with NPOV. This topic itself is not worthy, though the topic of America's detention centers in general, maybe, though not my call there. Jerry (talk) 22:00, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    So, topic with 50 reliable sources present is not worthy. How does the article not comply with NPOV? starship.paint (talk) 00:53, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    This article should probably cover the use of detention camps by * all * relevant administrations instead of just one. I see no reason why there should be an article for just one president just because he got more media attention than the previous one. Jerry (talk) 01:45, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    @JerrySa1:, Immigration detention in the United States exists. There is a reason why there should be an article for this particular president, because media outlets are reliable sources too, and there is significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, per WP:GNG. Also, the attention is not exclusive to media outlets - the U.N. has commented, the Prime Minister of U.K. has commented, various lawmakers have commented, and the administration's officials have reacted. starship.paint (talk) 01:57, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The rationale for deletion is completely bereft of any Wikipedia policy based arguments and is purely WP:IDONTLIKEIT, as the subject of this article was widely covered in the news media and is notable. WP:NOTCENSORED so we don't need to protect Trump by limiting the number of articles about him.

  • Comment to elaborate, there's no question migrant detention as an issue is notable, and the Trump Administration's stance on this immigration issue is also notable and a large enough topic to be covered, but there are existing topics for those. There is nothing in this article which doesn't fit in another article. The inclusion of comparison to past administration's is fine to expand the topic, but then why an article for "Trump Administration"? (I understand it was likely added to address NPOV concerns from others.) From the standpoint of an encyclopedia meant for a wider audience, a subsection in migrant detention, or a results section in the existing policy page is probably more warranted for what's contained here. My suggestion is that having one clear topic which covers an issue across time and administrations, rather than a specific Wikipedia page for what will end up historically as just one controversy among many is a much cleaner approach than multiple overlapping articles. With the current article name, it's going to be limited to information which really belongs elsewhere. 136.57.207.196 (talk) 22:01, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment @Barkeep49 and Ceethekreator: Thanks for your suggestions.

I would like to see some significant coverage on this song. Thanks. William2001(talk) 18:58, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    We're talking about a song from 1996 so notability establishing sources might only exist offline. This is part of the reason that the presumption of notability from a SNG has some value in my mind. I admit I have not done a full look into finding sources that may exist online. But I did invest effort into establishing that it meets NSONG such that I can say it "Seems like a notable song. Passes NSONG. An article for improvement, maybe?" I'm very open to the argument that something which nominally passes a SNG is not actually notable, but as you didn't understand . However, I don't see you making that case especially as you didn't address the fact that it charted on a chart recognized by NSONG in your nomination. I am more than willing to change my !vote in an AfD based on evidence but from the evidence I'm seeing suggests notability. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:54, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Born in Africa (Dr. Alban album). Charting is one sign of a song's notability, but it would still need to receive coverage from third-party reliable sources. I disagree with the keep votes because the chart information could easily be merged into the parent article about the album. Offline sources may exist, but I could not find anything through Google or Newspapers.com. It is a valid search term so I think a redirect would be better than outright deletion. Aoba47 (talk) 01:46, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

    Of course. Just trying to help out. Aoba47 (talk) 03:48, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • That it could be merged is a POV. Wikipedias own set guidelines are very specific here. This is a high ranking song on a national chart. BabbaQ (talk) 10:17, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is not correct. The following sentence is taken directly from WP:NSONG: (Any of the following factors suggest that a song or single may be notable enough that a search for coverage in reliable independent sources will be successful) and one of those factors is chart placement. The guideline is saying that chart placement may indicate that a song has received coverage from reliable independent sources, but it does not present chart placement as an absolute indicator of notability by itself. Here is another sentence from WP:NSONG (Notability aside, a standalone article is appropriate only when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album), and that further proves that notability is proven entirely by coverage. If the chart placement is the only information about the song available in sources, then it would fall under the "articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album" part. Apologies for the long response, but the above statement is not accurate to Wikipedia policy. My merge vote is grounded entirely in policy and not POV (as the above editor falsely claims).

Comment - has anyone been able to view Finnish/Swedish/Austrian entertainment industry periodicals from 1996, and come to the conclusion that the topic was not discussed? Are they available online?

I was unaware that this page existed until its proposed deletion was removed by what appears to be a WP:CANVASsed editor on another page. After spending time reviewing the page and attempting to google the author I believe the original proposer may have been correct that the subject has not demonstrated notability.

  • Of eleven sources on the page, all but one source back to either Archive.org remnants of her old personal website or to her husband's website.
  • The final source on the page is a podcast.
  • Some of the content appears plagiarized from other websites or promotional materials from the publisher such as book jacket author bio text. The text of the Writing section appears copied verbatim from fan site https://www.risingshadow.net/library/author/567-sarah-a-hoyt.

A WP:BEFORE check here turned up little in the way of references. This looks to be a rough translation of the same article on the Spanish Wikipedia, but I can't find much here or in Spanish, which I can read. Lack of sources seem to indicate he's not a notable subject - a mayor of a Chilean commune and a member of the Communist party, who disappeared. That's about the best I can find.

  • Keep. If he was leader (or even a leader) of the Communist Party of Chile then he's likely to be notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:15, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Except there's no source to back that claim, to prove he even was. He wasn't "the" leader if the timeline on Communist Party of Chile is to be believed. There's a quick mention that says "Communist Party Leader" in one of the sources, but it goes on to call him a "member", and I also strongly believe that none of the sources used are reliable source. WP:GNG applies, especially if it can't be proven he meets WP:NPOL. Red Phoenix talk 13:50, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, although I'm certainly willing to reconsider this if SalmanZ's promise to find better sources actually pans out with better sources. Leading a political party (if he really did that, which seems to be up for debate) would certainly be a valid potential notability claim if it were properly sourced, but it's not an instant notability freebie that exempts a person from actually having to have enough real media coverage to get over WP:GNG — but of the two sources here, the one that contains content about him is unreliable and the one that is reliable doesn't even mention his name at all, so we're batting zero for establishing that he would pass GNG.

  • I can see that SalmanZ has been hard at work at this. I have a great appreciation for that, and I see he's found sources from Chilean websites. I still have a lot of concerns. Below, I'll post a review of my reading of the sources used so far. To keep numbers consistent, I'm referring to this most recent diff as I review, and my numbers correspond to those in the diff. I'll also preface this by saying that yes, I can read Spanish and not just a machine translation:
      1. 1 is sourced to Resumen, appears to be a Chilean website but it's hard to tell if it's a newspaper or something like that; I couldn't find a publishing company. About 1/2 a paragraph is about Luis Acevedo Andrade, and it's specific he was general secretary of the Communist Party of Coelemu, the small commune of which he was mayor. It says nothing about him being secretary of the whole Communist Party of Chile.
      2. 2 claims to be from the International Project of Human Rights, an organization that claims to be entirely self-funded. Website does not appear professional and my instincts tell me it's not a reliable source.
      3. 3 appears to be a book source, but there's little more than a 2-3 line blurb about the subject in it.
      4. 4 is a court case document, but the subject is just a line listing him as one of many people murdered.
      5. 5 is from an editorial website in Chile on social issues. Reads as a sort of reminiscence without really much in the way of factual information about the subject.
      6. 6, 7, and 8 are about the arrest of the captors decades later. 8 has some factual info but cites it from #2.
    • Cannot view #9 because it's a blocked page in a Google Book but the book's certainly not about the subject himself.
      1. 10 I can't even see a mention of Acevedo Andrade.
  • If there is anything that could be kept here, a possibility might be a merge to Human rights in Chile or Human rights violations in Pinochet's Chile, since it's identified in these sources as a human rights issue - the trial is the best-sourced part with little about the person himself. That being said, I still don't think this establishes the notability of this particular person. Red Phoenix talk 03:15, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks for your reviewing my work. This article is in the field of human rights. but as far as Notability is concerned, I believe there are more domestic, reliable sources for a mayor of a city like "Coelemu" that passes WP: NOTE. what we need is help from Chilean community to prove Luis Acevedo Andrade's Notability. --SalmanZ (talk) 21:35, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Just for the record, mayors aren't routinely considered "inherently" notable. As a rule, only mayors of major cities (like Santiago or Valparaiso) are likely to be accepted as notable on their face — but in a place with a population of just 16,000, you would have to get the mayor over a much higher bar of reliable source coverage that expands into national or international media to make them notable enough. The problem is that what you're showing still isn't really notability-supporting reliable source coverage about Luis Acevedo Andrade — you're mostly showing primary sources and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things or people, not coverage about him.

    • We still need notability established. While the work has been good, we still don't have any sources here that actually help this article meet the GNG - the one article specifically about Acevedo Andrade (and it's more about his capture, not about him personally or his career) is not a reliable source, and everything else is a passing mention. As it stands, I still think a mention in Human rights violations in Pinochet's Chile is appropriate, but I do not agree with an article because notability is still not demonstrated. Red Phoenix talk 03:50, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep and move to Disappearance of Luis Acevedo Andrade. The relevant policy is WP:EVENTCRIT, and specifically WP:NCRIME, which says "As with other events, media coverage can confer notability on a high-profile criminal act, provided such coverage meets the above guidelines [depth and duration of coverage, and diversity of sources] and those regarding reliable sources. The disappearance of a person would fall under this guideline if law enforcement agencies deemed it likely to have been caused by criminal conduct, regardless of whether a perpetrator is identified or charged." The coverage of the arrest, charging and trials of the captors are certainly relevant to this policy. There seem to be three articles specifically about this (there are four listed in the references, but I note that "Three former Carabineros sentenced for illegal detention and kidnapping of former mayor ofCoelemu in 1974" is identical to "Condenan a tres ex carabineros por detención ilegal y secuestro de ex alcalde de Coelemu en 1974"). In a quick search, I found one other (Corte condenó a cuatro ex policías y dos civiles por desaparecidos en 1973 y 1974) which is about the court ruling on several disappearances, including this man. I'll see if I can find more. RebeccaGreen (talk) 02:51, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. Since this has been open for more than a day, I’ll go ahead and close this one. My reading of consensus here - editors have recommended deletion based on these articles being unsourced and amounting to original research, as well as overall problems with how the articles are written. Those favouring retention have provided sources countering these claims of notability and original resource sufficiently. AFD is not a substitute for cleanup and refinements to articles, nor do those supporting retention need to commit to implementing these changes, just prove their case sufficiently as based in policy and outside sources.

I already had "List of Vogue Portugal cover models" deleted previously because I noticed the primary contributor relied on original research with absolutely no reliable sources cited. Now the rest of these have to go too. Hell, the majority of these don't even have articles for their market's magazine.

  • Delete All unsourced and violating WP:FANSITE, zero-sourced, and a complete whiff of not reading MOS:FLAG. The external link at the end of the article is better for this purpose than we are. Nate (chatter) 02:49, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question All this information if easily verifiable. Especially US, French, British and several other Vogue publications. If I remember, these articles do not require sourcing for publication, just that the information is available to be sourced. While being a Vogue cover model may not be what it was 10 years ago, for nearly 70 years preceeding 2010 it was a huge honor and highly presitgious. Is all that correct? If the information is easily sourcable, it is a prestigious honor for 80 years of publication, and the list has been published for years it appears. Shouldn't this be a keep? ScienceAdvisor (talk) 21:47, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
There’s a flip side to that coin. This is all LISTCRUFT. Trillfendi (talk) 06:49, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Clearly original research, listcruft. WP:LISTN requires evidence in reliable sources that these are notable as a group, which is not present and does not show in my WP:BEFORE. FOARP (talk) 08:25, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Each magazine issue is a reliable source for its own content. So long as we have the issue's date, and the model is unambiguously identifiable from it (such as by credits or cover caption), there is no OR concern and the claim that these are unsourced is simply false.

    Note also there was a prior nomination including some of these lists at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people on the cover of I-D magazine, which should be linked above. One of the commenters in that discussion cited a number of sources on this topic, which may or may not give some context for maintaining some of these lists, worth considering at least.

    I think there is a good argument that some of the international versions may not merit the same treatment regardless, particularly if as the nom mentions, they do not all have independent articles. postdlf (talk) 14:48, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Though it's a primary source, at least the i-D one has a reliable source for all the covers listed. Evidently, the same can't be said here. Trillfendi (talk) 22:02, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
There's no requirement that there be a single source that covers a whole list, if that's the point you're trying to make here (or if no such source exists for any of these lists, which I don't know). postdlf (talk) 16:09, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are a number of books dealing with Vogue covers and their models available from many publishers. The Creative Director of the M.E.T. Museum even publsihes one. You can also search google for "Vogue Archive" and see every cover ever published.. You just aren't interested in sourcing the info. Also, this certainly isn't listcruft since the information would certainly be appropriate to merge into the main article on Vogue if there weren't a 125 years of covers to consider. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 21:47, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Imagine saying "you aren't interested in sourcing the info" to someone who has spent 3 years making articles about fashion models.... But it's not like you will do it. Trillfendi (talk) 23:07, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep (procedural), this is ridiculous, 22 articles bundled together for deletion!, lets say 5minutes each to check for sources, thats about 1hour 45mins, suggest this is closed and the nominator can bundle a more manageable number, hows 6 per afd? Coolabahapple (talk) 14:28, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Amazing how one little grammatical typo and a lack of autocapitalization can take something so simple completely out of context. Clearly, I was referring to the other articles needing deletion just like Vogue Portugal one, I forgot the extra o in too; one of the definitions of hell is an exclamation used for emphasis.

  • Keep per sources provided by the IP editor and Coolabahapple. The fact that one source only covers up to a decade ago does not matter - it shows that Vogue covers are notable as a topic. I'm not going to try to check and comment on all these nominations individually - it's a ridiculous number. RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:03, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
And I gotdamn sure wasn’t going to be sitting here the whole rest of the 22 weeks left in this year AFding each article individually when they all have the same problem. All Vogue covers are not notable just for being Vogue covers. All Friends episodes aren't notable. Typically the only consistently "notable" occasions are who is on the September issue. Anyone who pays attention to fashion is aware of that, realistically. These articles don’t even take "special" issues (e.g. Imaan Hammam’s "third" Vogue cover, Kendall Jenner's subscription only cover) or things such as Vogue Italia Beauty issues into account. As it is, the American Vogue article points out particularly notable covers over the past 127 years and it’s evidently best left at that. At this point "cover models" is a misnomer because they stopped regularly putting actual models on the cover 20 years ago, and that’s well known; as clear as when MTV stopped playing music videos regularly. In this decade, only 11 or 12 issues have had models on the cover. That amounts to only 10%. The fallacy that they should be "kept" simply because of the Vogue name doesn't cut it. The persistent problem is the original research and lack of reliable sources for each article. Trillfendi (talk) 17:25, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per RebeccaGreen. Bookscale (talk) 12:04, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Aren't the Vogue Archive's enough to source at least the US Vogue covers? I am not sure if they cover other countries.. Vogue may not be the bible it once was but for 100+ years it had huge circulation and was considered the defacto guide for fashion. Plus their circulation numbers plus the fact before the internet they sat on every shelf in every store and supermarket for virtually everyone in the country to look at. I already voted but it looks like several people have provided ways to source the info. I would think if you know the month and year you could also probably find a photo to source virtually any vogue cover worldwide through google or even ebay. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 21:53, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
eBay? A place to buy used stuff? Wow, nothing shocks me anymore. The Vogue archive may give you a few little snippets of what was in the magazine (not the main article of course) but the photographers are still being left out here. And every market of Vogue doesn't have a public archive, most Vogues except perhaps the Big Four don't even have the clout or capital to have that. US Vogue didn't even start putting fashion model's names on the covers until, what, that one off issue in 1999, and the Vogues that do put models on the cover still don't, so we're supposed to go off public's possible recognition? That ain't it. Trillfendi (talk) 23:59, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Trillfendi I just went to the Vogue archives and it is every page of every issue dating all the way back to 1892. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 05:05, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:AFFILIATE, "inline citations may be allowed to e-commerce pages such as that of a book on a bookseller's page or an album on its streaming-music page, in order to verify such things as titles and running times. Journalistic and academic sources are preferable, however, and e-commerce links should be replaced with non-commercial reliable sources if available." It doesn't say they're not allowed! RebeccaGreen (talk) 05:33, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
All I’m saying is if someone would have to resort to eBay that’s a red flag. Trillfendi (talk) 23:37, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I agree it's silly, but not for the same reason; it's more like citing "the library" just because that's where you happened to find a book. Just cite the book. The magazine itself is a reliable source for its own content. No one cares how you found a copy of an issue, and online convenience links that reproduce print material are just that, a convenience; they are not what you are really citing. postdlf (talk) 03:08, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Like I said before, all of it amounts to LISTCRUFT. Every cover of every Vogue in every market isn’t in itself notable. All of the major contributors to these pages are red link amateurs and IP users who don’t know what they’re doing, some have been banned, and have no regard for policy. This is what happens when anyone can make an article. Frankly, I’m starting to believe sockpuppetry is at work here. List of Vogue Hong Kong cover models was rejected in the AfC in April (Vogue Hong Kong doesn’t have an article either) and wasn’t going to be fruitful edition to the encyclopedia anyway; let alone it wasn’t even half done and it was "undersourced", therefore a page reviewer moved it back to the draft space for that reason. And even worse, a duplicate called Draft:List of Vogue HongKong cover models 2 was created after Draft:List of Vogue Hong Kong cover models 2 was deleted. My God. Burn it down.

      The book notes:

      Oterprise Square

      (Formerly Titus Square)

      The site is located at the junction of Nathan Road and Middle Road in Tsimshatsui, a traditionally busy commercial and tourist neighborhood. The site is sandwiched between a number of landmark buildings in the district: the Peninsula Hotel, the Sheraton Hotel, and the Hyatt Regency. It is relatively small in area, only about 1,000 square meters, and what used to be a panoramic view of Victoria Harbour is now largely obstructed by the Sheraton and the newly extended Peninsula Tower.

      The redevelopment is envisaged to be a Class-A office building with a retail podium. The challenge to the design was how to fully exploit, under the restrictions of its towering neighbors and its own relatively small area, the potential of the site in this particular 'golden' location.

      The strategy in the design of the podium was to introduce a passage cutting diagonally across the site linking Nathan Road and Middle Road. This means that pedestrians are tempted to use this shortcut through the retail areas, and be brought, involuntarily, through the skylit atrium above this passage, into visual contact with the various retail levels and the associated bridgelinks and escalators. As a result, there is an intentional mixing and blurring of the boundary between the private and the public domains, resulting in an architecture that is both fluid and permeable.

      In the design of the office tower, a conscious attempt was made to maximize the view of the harbor available at the different levels of the tower. This results in the façade being orientated towards the southwest, from the sixth floor to the thirteenth floor, through the gap between the Sheraton and the Peninsula, and towards the south from the fifteenth floor to twenty-seventh floor, once it is clear of the roof of the Sheraton, to capture the whole panorama of Hong Kong Island.

      The form of the building is thus predetermined by the above strategies and represents a distinct example of a 'contextual high-rise' in the dense urban fabric typical of Hong Kong.

      The article provides some additional information about the building:

      Titus Square

      Architectural Firm: Rocco Design Limited

      This is a case study of an office building with its curtain wall serving as the enclosure. A shading device is incorporated for solar control. Minor articulation in the plan form produces variation in the building facade.

      The site is within the busy urban fabric adjacent to Nathan Road in Tsimshatsui. As it is located in a corner site fronting two streets, a plan form of a circular quadrant is selected. This plan generates a massing with maximum view from the offices.

      The curtain wall for the tower incorporates two main types of panel. The first type has one-third of its height as the vision panel and the other two-thirds as the spandrel panel. The second type has a full-height vision glass incorporating a 200 mm high fan light for smoke extraction. This latter type is more open to the view but less resistant to solar heat gain. To improve this, a shading device of fluorocarbon-coated aluminium overhangs 765 mm from the external wall.

      The book notes:

      The result is a place-centered modernism. Perhaps no building exemplifies this better than Oterprise Square, completed recently by Rocco Design. In the tight confines of the densest part of Kowloon, this silver office and commercial complex uniquely fits its Hong Kong location. It encourages pedestrians to shortcut the crowded corner, slicing through and revealing a world of offices and shops. At the ground level, the building is as much a passage as a structure – and what a passage! – revealing the building vertically to the pedestrian moving through it. Oterprise Square was one of the first buildings that recognized that the upper, middle and lower portions of a tower each need to respond differently to their context. The top has panoramic views that need to be captured; the middle portion exploits the narrow view angle towards the harbor as defined by adjacent buildings; and the lower levels are the domains of the pedestrian. Buildings of this sort capture the energy of their surroundings, and they are at the heart of how Hong Kong modernism differs from new architecture in most other parts of the world.

      The book notes:

      Case Studies

      Titus Square

      Titus Square is an office tower located in Tsim Sha Tsui. Similar to many office buildings in Hong Kong, the lower floors (G/F to 5/F, in this case) are designed for retail use and the upper floors for office use. Here, 6/F, 7/F and 14/F are for mechanical services and are not taken into account for OTTV calculation.

      A curtain wall of 8mm coated glass and light grey tiles are selected as the basic external finishes for the fenestration and opaque wall respectively. The roof is reinforced concrete slab with insulation board and concrete tile.

      Located between Nathan Road and Middle Road, the building is shaded from direct sunlight by Far East Mansion, Sheraton Hotel and Pennisula Hotel. This poses a difficulty in applying the standard method of OTTV calculation to accurately reflect the real situation.

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow 26 Nathan Road to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

    Cunard (talk) 07:58, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • 26 Nathan Road was previously known as Titus Square and Oterprise Square. Four book sources provide significant coverage about the building.

    For example, The City in Architecture: Recent Works of Rocco Design from The Images Publishing Group provides substantial analysis of the building. It notes, "Oterprise Square was one of the first buildings that recognized that the upper, middle and lower portions of a tower each need to respond differently to their context. The top has panoramic views that need to be captured; the middle portion exploits the narrow view angle towards the harbor as defined by adjacent buildings; and the lower levels are the domains of the pedestrian. Buildings of this sort capture the energy of their surroundings, and they are at the heart of how Hong Kong modernism differs from new architecture in most other parts of the world."

    And Building Enclosure in Hong Kong from Hong Kong University Press also provides substantial analysis of the building. It notes about Titus Square, "This is a case study of an office building with its curtain wall serving as the enclosure. A shading device is incorporated for solar control. Minor articulation in the plan form produces variation in the building facade. The site is within the busy urban fabric adjacent to Nathan Road in Tsimshatsui. As it is located in a corner site fronting two streets, a plan form of a circular quadrant is selected. This plan generates a massing with maximum view from the offices."

    Jonathan de Boyne Pollard (talk · contribs) made significant improvements to the article after the AfD nomination.

  • Keep, per Cunard. The photo suffices for me, anyhow. Anything that huge and expensive is going to be notable by wp:GNG, and should also be recognized by wwp:GEOFEAT(?). --Doncram (talk) 09:04, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Cunard's sources. When I initially saw the links I thought they would be routine mentions, but though it's somewhat close, I think in the end the Binder and Hope sources particularly show the independent analysis needed to rise to the level of significant coverage.

Corporate article was created by a SPA burner account in 2008. At the time, Geni tagged it as needing sourcing improvement, but the SPA promptly removed the tag. Article is sourced entirely to (a) press releases, (b) other Wikipedia articles, (c) broken links to non-RS websites, (d) a Craigslist ad, (e) ecommerce websites.

  • Delete - As stated by the nomination, the sources being used in the article are not valid to establish notability, as none of them appear to be from reliable secondary sources. Additionally their biggest claim to notability is being the runner up for a non-notable award. There are no additional reliable sources that I can find discussing the company in any depth, and as the team appears to have disbanded, there very likely never will be.

Boilerplate rationale adapted from my previous AfDs of similar photographer articles (such as Keizaburō Saeki), which itself was largely borrowed from Cckerberos at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hideki Kasai. Keizaburō Saeki, Hideki Kasai, and this currently-nominated article are all identical bot-created articles. I have nominated several others for deletion, but have improved and de-orphaned quite a few more when sources have been available.

To quote Cckerberos: "This article is a generic stub, generated by a bot in 2007. It makes no specific claim to notability; it appears that similar stubs were created for every photographer listed in 328 Outstanding Japanese Photographers, all with the format "Name (years) is a renowned Japanese photographer" (compare the nominated article with Gen Ōtsuka, for example). Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography states that the sole criteria for inclusion in the book was to have a single photograph in the museum's permanent collection at the time the book was published. That doesn't seem to meet WP:CREATIVE."

In addition to Cckerberos's excellent commentary, I'll note that I've done as thorough a WP:BEFORE check as possible for an English-speaker: Google searches of both the English and Japanese order of the English transliteration of his name. None of the English transliterations turned up anything of use. He does not appear in the reasonably thorough The History of Japanese Photography or Photography in Japan 1853-1912.

I have also checked his Japanese name, but I didn't find anything of substance. The Japanese Wikipedia has no article about him, so there are no sources to be borrowed from it. I searched his Japanese name there and found nothing.

In the absence of reliable sources, we cannot verify that this person is notable, so the article, like many of the previous bot-generated photographers before it, should be deleted.

Courtesy ping to Hoary, who is knowledgeable on the topic of Japanese photographers, and whose commentary on these AfDs is invaluable to me, especially when it causes me to alter my opinion. (And Hoary, you'll be pleased to know this is the last of the Feb 09 list, so I probably won't be hassling you to any more photographer AfDs).PMC(talk) 00:15, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Here's an interesting fellow. As his inclusion in the "328" book indicates, at least one print of his is at Syabi. But he's perhaps less known as a photographer than as a popularizer of gum printing. He published several book about these. I looked for one at CiNii (Worldcat is near-useless in Japan) and here it is: after more than four decades after publication, his book Daredemo dekiru gamu inga ("Anybody-can-do-it gum prints") is in the libraries of two universities (one university has two copies). However, I can't imagine that anyone will improve this article any time soon. Therefore delete without prejudicing the fate of any new, intelligent, non-formulaic article on this person. -- Hoary (talk) 03:27, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment As I said at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gorō Hobo and then again at Talk:List of photographers, I think quasi-noteworthy people about whom we can't write enough to fill a standalone article do merit inclusion in List of Japanese photographers -- otherwise there's no point having such a list, since a list of items that are required to have standalone articles is redundant with Category:Japanese photographers, and redirects are cheap. That being said, if the majority of the community does not agree with me on this point, I don't think it's worth my time arguing it. So consider me a !vote for "weak redirect", I guess; with the caveat that my preferred redirect target currently has inclusion criteria that mean that unless this subject has a standalone article, all reference to him will be removed from that page anyway, making the redirect useless.
