Subject categorically fails to meet WP:COMPOSER, the criteria in the 'Others' section, and WP:GNG. I probably should've used a PROD, but I figured I'd err on the side of caution and give it a fair shake here in case I inexplicably missed something.

Author for whom I could find no evidence of meeting WP:NAUTHOR or GNG. Current sources are either not RS, not independent, or not offering significant coverage of her. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:51, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Completely, undoubtedly fails WP:NAUTHOR, and three online articles from local news outlets does not a notable subject make. Edit: My stance on this matter remains the same after the article's update; please see my comment below for elaboration. Edit 2: Keeping up with this is getting out-of-hand, as the article at this point is WP:CITEKILL, making individually addressing the citations like addressing Gish gallop; the subject is still not notable, and throwing absurd amounts of references that fail to satisfy the WP:GNG and WP:NAUTHOR does not change that. See also: WP:NOTEBOMB, and especially WP:BOMBARD. TheTechnician27 (talk) 06:49, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I created the page with help from another webpage that I found out was originally sourced from a deleted Wikipedia page but I found notable sources that back up the comments. I asked if I needed to put this in sandbox to work on and was told it could stay up as long as I wasn’t using multiple accounts. This writer has been cited in a number of postfeminist articles and I found out referred to in reference to her writing in mental illness and infertility. I think that her contributions make that notable, I’m researching postfeminism in relationship to trans and disability issues and I was introduced to this author’s work on infertility in terms of disability through the Rhetoric Research Network. I think that’s important for other people who share this interest. - Jenn Morris Jennmorris1 (talk) 03:01, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
@Jennmorris1: What are the reliable sources which discuss her? Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 03:17, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Jennmorris1: So you made a large addition of sources to the article. The article is definitely improved. Thanks for that. I am not, however, seeing notability. The only source that gives me pause is the Mount Holyoke bibliography - but there's a certain amount of an attempt to be comprehensive rather than selective there and it's certainly not significant coverage. Other sources are by McCarter herself or otherwise not RS. The best of this lot is the Daily Journal but that looks to be too small of a newspaper to impute notability. But I do have a much better understanding of why you found her notable even if I don't agree so thanks. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 04:24, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Jenmorris1: (Apologies for the wall of text): Your goals are admirable, and it seems you're somewhat new to Wikipedia, which I know first-hand can be daunting (and maaaaybe a bit abstruse if I'm being honest). To explain it with hopefully little jargon, while there is some room for subjectivity, a subject for an article is required to be notable by Wikipedia's guidelines. Ultimately, Wikipedia's mission is to be an encyclopedia, and that means drawing a line, as not to become an indiscriminate repository of information. There are specific notability guidelines for different cases (for example when dealing with astronomical objects, geographical features, creatives, academics, etc.), and there's also what's known as the general notability guideline (WP:GNG) that functions as a catch-all; in this case, WP:NAUTHOR is the relevant notability guideline. I don't think it's contentious to say that McCarter fails to meet any of the criteria listed in WP:NAUTHOR, but that's not necessarily where the discussion ends. Per the GNG: "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list." To remove some ambiguity, the terms in that statement are defined more specifically (see GNG, linked above). While my argument above was for the original article, I'm still in agreement with @Barkeep49: about this subject's lack of notability, and hence I still vote Delete. For starters, as they are unequivocally not independent, McCarter's articles in the HuffPost do not constitute or contribute to notability. You also added to the article: "Her writing and research on mental illness and postfeminism is referenced in a number of academic and non-academic sources", followed by two sources making passing reference to McCarter; passing references again do not constitute or contribute to notability. This article and this article from local online news outlets are about a TV show, not about McCarter. And then we're back to where we were when I made that comment above: three articles from local online news outlets (seen here, here, and here) does not a notable subject make. As an aside, you note that you've seen other articles with fewer references. There are two factors at play here: the first is that quality is almost entirely superior to quantity for notability as far as references go; the second is that those articles you've seen may also not be notable – with almost 6 million articles on the English Wikipedia alone, things slip through the cracks. TheTechnician27 (talk) 05:05, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Barkeep49: I think perhaps my opinion on the notability comes fr my seeing references to her work in various websites, podcasts, and academic articles I’ve read that mention her, I could work on finding more but I see Wikipedia articles with a lot less references! The STL Dispatch article mentions her community work and I’ve seen reference to it in Facebook posts, websites that aren’t “reliable” but do make it clear it has meaning to the residents there. Plus the Southeast Missourian isn’t small or local newspaper. I think the problem I’m having is explaining the notability of someone who is has contributed to my (albeit narrow) narrow field of disability studies and postfeminist thought. I noticed there is a list of Huffington Post contributors, would she be relevant there?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jennmorris1 (talkcontribs) 04:38, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Draftify - This article (and our searches) have not turned up enough to meet WP:NAUTHOR and WP:GNG, but as we have a relatively new, yet determined editor, who I'm taking at their word User talk:Jennmorris1 does not have a WP:COI, and who initially wanted to work on the article in their sandbox, I recommend this article get moved to draft space and worked on there. It will give @Jennmorris1: time to learn more about WP:GNG vs. WP:NOTEBOMB, so they can research and include WP:SIGCOV, (or perhaps come to realize the threshold is not met, and dedicate their efforts to another individual/organization/etc. meeting the notability standard for a Wikipedia article) and going that route will provide a structured review process before the article is returned to main space. Orville1974 (talk) 07:42, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • It should be stressed that this new editor is already ostensibly knowledgeable about this niche field of study, yet a clearly almost exhaustive search coupled with Barkeep49's and my additional efforts have turned up almost nothing. Per WP:DRAFTIFY: "As part of the review of new pages, an unreviewed page may be moved to draft if: 1) the topic has some potential merit, and 2) the article does not meet the required standard, and 3) there is no evidence of active improvement. 4) or when the author clearly has a conflict of interest." Herein lies the problem: only 2) here is met through 2d: "The page is a recent creation by an inexperienced editor". 3) is not met, because 3a) this user is actively working on it, and 3b) there is an assertion being made that this article belongs on the mainspace. More importantly, because of what I noted before, 1) is not met because the subject is not plausibly notable. I want to specifically quote WP:DRAFTIFY's expansion on 1): "Has some merit -- 1a. for example, the topic is plausibly notable (if not, it should be speedy-deleted under A7 or nominated at AfD; do not draftify junk)." I reassert that the editor of this article carried out a near-exhaustive search in the WP:BOMBARDMENT, which combined with two other editors seeking out information on the subject effectively confirms this lack of plausible notability. TheTechnician27 (talk) 08:38, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete from article space for sure. Unfortunately, the subject comprehensively fails both WP:GNG and the alternate criteria at WP:NAUTHOR. All of her books are self-published by her own press, Fat Daddy's Farm [1], [2]. Observe the results from WorldCat. None of them have been reviewed by mainstream publications. Wading through the extensive citation bombing reveals coverage of the subject herself only in unreliable/non-notable/self-published sources, sources authored by the subject herself, passing mentions, news from her college, or extremely local coverage, e.g. a piece in the "Community" section of the Southeast Missourian and one in the "Local" section of an even more local newspaper, Daily Journal. Possibly draftify per Orville1974, but I cannot see that draft ever being accepted with the current coverage. Voceditenore (talk) 09:31, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You've both convinced me (along with my own determined search to find something worthy of being deemed as a WP:RS. Moving the article to draft would just delay the inevitable. I've changed my recommendation to delete. Orville1974 (talk) 09:37, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Incidentally, the heading of the "Books" section is somewhat exaggerated. Both A Small Book of Wisdom and Earthquakes are only 24 pages long, have no ISBN numbers and are only published as free Kindle editions. The 130 page novella What Moves Her is likewise available for free on Kindle. McCarter is the editor, not the author, of the anthology Joy, Interrupted. Her short memoir Insanity: A Love Story does get c.120 words devoted to it in the "Resources" section of Living with Bipolar Disorder: A Handbook for Patients and Their Families published by McFarland (currently used as a reference), but that simply isn't enough. That book was (self)published 10 years ago, and if it had made any kind of impact, lasting or otherwise, there should be multiple sources like that one. There aren't. Voceditenore (talk) 11:39, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Per Nom and the reasoning of User:TheTechnician27. Even if reliable and independent a source can be perfectly alright for content but fail to advance notability. Mentioning that other stuff exists is often repeated on Wikipedia, because it may be true, but is usually never a good argument at AFD. Silence does not mean there are not issues. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Otr500 (talkcontribs) 10:01, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: The great majority of references are to content the subject of the article has written rather than to content about her. As noted above, books are self-published. David notMD (talk) 10:45, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Jennmorris1, TheTechician explains a lot of my thinking above. But I will address one element they did not. Wikipedia has a hard time in thinking through notability of people in smaller fields. This is because drawing the distinction between small and niche is hard. Notable in a small field is probably enyclopedic. Notable in a niche field is probably not. In both these cases finding reliable sources to establish this notability is extremely challenging and because of our reliance on such sources we probably do not have coverage of some people who are as least as notable as certain Children's authors (to pick my own editing area) for whom we can and do have articles. In this case, there are certainly RS around disability studies and postfeminist thought and so someone who is notable for their intersection should have some significant coverage from those RS. In this case the coverage is more passing than significant. I hope that's helpful and that you do stick around Wikipedia despite what must be a frustrating experience here as there are likely to be some existing articles which could benefit from your expertise and editorial attention. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 13:31, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi I just saw this article is up for deletion and I appreciate the in depth discussion and recognize both the reasons for and against deleting it. I just want to say I have no objection to it being deleted if it doesn’t meet any of the standards. I’m not sure what draftify it means and @jenmorris seems to be saying she needs it for some class related and I saw a good suggestion to make a copy offline, but also maybe show this discussion? The issue of what is notable is an interesting rhetorical discussion in itself, what establishes ethos - which clearly self-published works lacks in this particular context, self-promotion being a major limitation to self-publishing, that notability can’t be established by off line or non-mainstream sources (academic conferences/smaller journals are woefully underrepresented online, often with broken links and aren’t maintained). As time goes by, google evolves and links go by the wayside. I’ve seen things I’ve researched that clearly had a presence 10 years ago not be on the web even though they are still discussed and cited off line! But I guess that’s one of the special considerations, Wikipedia isn’t a lexicon or encyclopedia of life, but of what is verifiable online. I think this exercise in debate does show the rhetorical considerations of notability, which is a good lesson itself to someone in that field. Like suggested, perhaps it will inspire further discussion of ethos and notability that can be of future use to @jenmorris and anyone else who is concerned - thanks @lissahoop — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lissahoop (talkcontribs) 19:18, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would imagine the chance that "links go by the wayside" would be a good reason to archive them. Otr500 (talk) 02:18, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Otr500 I agree with you. But that is a challenge when links that could establish reliability aren’t archived. I know that is one of the reasons in the study of history that things are uncovered - information that doesn’t seem notable or relevant at a certain time is then important later on when it’s uncovered in research. What is obscure for one period can be highly important for a later one. (And can also fall out of fashion). But I imagine it’s not the purpose of Wikipedia to predict what information will be relevant and so you can’t archive everything in anticipation that it might. I think the wikipedia definition of what is considered for notable - part of which is to be enduring - is interesting. I’m not sure that knowledge or information is always enduring and what endures is often the result of a paradigm that is particular to a time period, matrix of power, and belief systems. And when that paradigm shifts, what endures can change. For example, women voices in prior centuries are being uncovered because of paradigm shifts valuing them in ways they weren’t before. They weren’t deemed notable or enduring. Anyway that’s a tangent. I do wonder if there is a way to go back to earlier periods of time of the World Wide Web to see those links that weren’t archived. Like a snapshot in time. Thanks for food for thought. Jennmorris1 (talk) 04:41, 5 June 2019 (UTC)jennmorris1[reply]

I’ve been reading the Wikipedia article on notability and have a clearer understanding. What’s frustrating is when links that establish notability are no longer there in a google search (even google scholar or google books aren’t permanent). It’s also frustrating when relevant links get pushed down so that researching a subject can be misleading or too time consuming. You almost have to know what you are looking for to find it. When I started out on the internet, Yahoo! categorized information and that provided an organization that was helpful for research. But now google or other search engines are like a mass of information with no rhyme or reason. The google algorithm often prioritizes information in a way that can be hard to conduct research. It would be nice if something like the that type of Yahoo! directory still existed. I think then there could be an enduring categorized archive that didn’t necessarily have to meet the notable standards of Wikipedia. An organized capsule of information.

  • Lissahoop and Jennmorris1, just a quick answer to a couple of your points, as deletion discussions are meant to remain tightly focused and not to veer off into general philosophical issues about Wikipedia, academia, search engines etc.
1. There is a way to look back into many, many sites/web pages which are no longer online, and to preserve the ones which are. I suggest you read Wayback Machine for an introduction, if you are not already familiar with it. Wikipedia uses it quite extensively for restoring "lost" references.
2. Journals or books which are offline /behind a paywall are acceptable as references, provided the reference has complete bibliographic information and the book or journal itself is considered a reliable source. However, to establish the notability of a subject, those sources must discuss the subject in significant depth, not simply a passing mention of him or her or listing in a bibliography.
3. This deletion discussion will be preserved here. All AfD discussions are preserved whether or not the actual article is deleted or sent to draft space ("draftified"). If you would like to continue this general discussion you've both started, I suggest you use Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Melissa Miles McCarter. I would be happy to continue it with you there.

  • WP:SPEEDY delete . A series of experienced editors have taken a close look, including me, and it is a WP:SNOW delete. It is clear that this memoirist who writes about her struggles with mental illness is finding this process stressful. I suggest that because we all with her to have a calm and productive life, we WP:SPEEDY close this discussion.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:48, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Just as a matter of record, there is no evidence that this is a stressful process to anyone involved and it’s a weird presumption that just because a person has written about past experiences with bipolar disorder that they would find this process stressful. If this needs to be deleted based on consensus and reasonable argument, that’s fine. But please don’t do it under the guise that further discussion would somehow cause stress. In my opinion, this has been a very interesting discussion that revealed the inner workings of Wikipedia. Hopefully no one who has commented here has found it stressful or an impediment to a calm or productive life. I know this is off topic but I thought it was important to address the concern that a polite and interesting discussion would lead anyone, whether having written about personal experiences, to be stressed out so it would interfere with his or her private life. And maybe since this discussion will be preserved, it will be useful record to help others understand in detail the reasoning behind various Wikipedia guidelines and intents.

  • Delete. WorldCat only lists one self-published book by her, held in two libraries; the other four things on the list of "books" in this article are either non-books or even more obscure than that. More to the point, I didn't find any published independent reviews of any of them. So WP:AUTHOR seems out of reach and the article doesn't present any case for any other form of notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:16, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Mrschimpf: Not seeing any RS issues. Of the the 3 references in the article, which do you think meet the notability requirements? Looks like very trivial coverage to me insufficient to justify an article. --David Tornheim (talk) 04:38, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: I'll just link to the other episode's nomination thread, because upon looking for sources to attest to this subject's notability, I noticed my rationale there can be copied practically verbatim to be applied here, with the sole exception that I also found a press release for this one, which also doesn't advance notability. Comment: Upon further inspection of the Pretty Little Liars category, there are numerous standalone articles for characters and episodes from the series that ostensibly warrant their own article just as much as if not less than these two episodes (note: this is not meant to be WP:WAX, so much as it is a calling out of those articles).

  • Delete: Lacks notability per TheTechnician27's rationale. Large amount of unsourced content raises concerns of original research. I looked at several episodes and find that many have the same issues with sourcing that includes an unsourced "Plot" section. I also have an issue with the need or want to inundate Wikipedia with the same two "External links" advertising IMDb and TV.com on every article, regardless that they not actually contain important "further research", needed and otherwise unavailable television credits, a further understanding of the subject that cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia article due to copyright issues, or possibly anything beyond just being links that promote the sites.

  • Procedural keep I don't like it isn't an appropriate deletion rationale. Try again, and be more specific about why you want this deleted. Not seeing any RS issues with this article at all. Nate (chatter) 00:26, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Mrschimpf:Not seeing any RS issues with this article at all. You are kidding, right? So do you think these citations that in the article are high quality WP:RS sufficient for inline citations and/or notability:
That is half of the citations for the article. I'm very much looking forward to hearing why you think these are high quality reliable sources. --David Tornheim (talk) 04:21, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • David Tornheim It's worth noting that this argument isn't the strongest (see: WP:NEXIST), but I'm erring on the side of your nomination, because I can find very little outside of the citations that you mentioned. I have found sources that discuss this particular episode, but they're all episode recaps that frankly don't seem to me to establish notability, that is they only provide WP:PLOT and don't actually present any reason why the episode should be considered notable.

  • Delete: Current sources are completely bereft of notability per WP:GNG. This isn't necessarily a problem of notability on its own (see: WP:NEXIST), but effectively the only sources I can find outside of the existing ones are episode recaps written by fans of the show for online magazines. Because they're simple plot recaps, they don't actually say anything about the notability of the episode, and thus I can find essentially nothing that even marginally advances this subject's notability. This article seems more suited to the Pretty Little Liars Wikia. See also: WP:PLOT. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 05:29, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Non-notable episode. Tweeter or Instagram is certainly not even in the same universe as high quality. These two, facebook and Pretty Little Liars.com. are primary sources, do not advance notability, and they account for over 45% of the listed references. In checking the rest there is a lack of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources to establish any notability. The entire plot section is unsourced that brings up concerns of original research. Otr500 (talk) 06:13, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: It may be important to note that this article was written in large part by one person with an ostensible conflict of interest. Concern has also been voiced about two other related articles: T.C. Chan Center for Building Simulation and Energy Studies and QSAS (see: this talk page), both of which, intentionally or not, ostensibly suffer from WP:MASK and may need to be looked into for nomination here. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 06:47, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Okay, this one may seem contentious, so let's start with something basic: whether intentional or not, I agree with nominator's assertion of WP:MASK; the article is bloated to an unreasonable degree, and statements will frequently have several (in this case, up to seven) citations apiece. In terms of notability, the subject fails to satisfy any of the 9 criteria for WP:NACADEMIC, although that's not necessarily the end of the discussion. WP:NACADEMIC defers to WP:BIO if its criteria aren't met, though I couldn't find anything in or outside of those 91 citations (complete overkill) that satisfies this; the ones I looked at – many from this article and a few not – either include Malkawi tengentially, don't even mention Malkawi, are press releases, are from non-notable sources, are self-authored, etc., none of which advance notability. Sifting through citations like this feels like Gish gallop, insofar as there are so many references that fail to establish notability that there's no way I could reasonably read through and address all of them. Comment: If kept, this article is in serious need of pruning, both for its prose and its citations. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 06:47, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It cites three substantive articles about his abortive long-shot run for mayor of Minneapolis.[3][4][5] WP:GNG says, "Significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article. A more in-depth discussion might conclude that the topic actually should not have a stand-alone article."

It has been tagged for notability for two years, and when an IP tried to remove the tag, a third editor restored it with the summary, "needs significant secondary coverage outside mayoral race to establish notability, see WP:NPOL." That guideline, perhaps recognizing that many local candidates receive some degree of attention in the press, sets the bar for them at "major local political figure". In practice, losing municipal candidates are usually considered not notable (see WP:POLOUTCOMES), but each should be discussed on their own merits.

He is also a filmmaker, but has made no notable films. The only coverage is an interview, him talking about his work and his organization, Cineapolis.[6] After the mayor's race he received a light dusting of coverage for acting in the 4-episode cable reality series Welcome to Waverly.[7][8][9]

DiderotTerra17 took several days to create this article. Some editors are loathe to delete another's hard work, but it should be noted that their original user name was Aswar314, suggesting that this is either an autobiography or ghost written by his campaign staff, so their effort may not have had Wikipedia's best interests at heart.

  • Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they did not win — notability as a politician comes from holding office, not running for it and losing or withdrawing. Some degree of local coverage of mayoral elections is simply expected to always exist, further, so such coverage does not automatically make a candidate special on "just because media coverage exists" grounds — if that were how it worked, then every candidate in every election would always be special, and NPOL would mean absolutely nothing anymore. Rather, to qualify for an article it would be necessary to properly demonstrate his preexisting notability as a filmmaker — but that's not what this does, as his work as a filmmaker is referenced entirely to primary sources rather than notability-supporting reliable sources.

  • Delete. I'm amazed this article lasted this long, and I used to subscribe to the rationale behind WP:PORNBIO. This would not have passed any version of the PORNBIO since April 2009. It survived the previous AfD mainly through a PORNBIO criterion dropped in 2007. The sources are crap. Biographical information is sourced from IAFD, IMDb and social media. Porn trade press consists of entries in lists of performers, press releases and interviews. No strong claim of passing WP:BASIC or WP:ENT. • Gene93k (talk) 01:19, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per my comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Holly Ryder. "Under her legal name, Lisa Marie Abato," "Ryder" was one of the best-known anti-porn activists in the U.S. Abato and her activities were covered in major media outlets like the Chicago Tribune[13] and the Los Angeles Times[14], commented on in The New York Times[15], discussed in the State Bar of California's official journal [16], and cited in social science books [17]. Newsbank search also turns up coverage in, inter alia, the San Francisco Examiner, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the Washington Times, the Boston Herald, the Tampa Tribune, the Sacramento Bee and others. Not notable as a porn performer, but clears the GNG by a significant margin." The consensus at that AFD to keep, rename, and redirect was sound. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

Black Day (Nepal)[edit]

Black Day (Nepal) (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)

The article reads like a list of multiple so-called black days that are observed as national/widely observed annual commemorative events. Most of them are just one-off events that were described as such in some news reporting/blogs. Some that were major events are still not shown to be periodic events but a single event/point-making, in the references, but are presented in a misleading way in the article. For example; the disambiguation page that lists this page mentions only the anniversary of promulgation of the constitution(and not half a dozen other black days mentioned in the article); yet the sources cited here report of only the very day of promulgation and no anniversaries thereafter. I don't see any way that it's good enough for wikipedia, yet I can not categorise it as anything. I don't even know what issues to raise. Would editors please look at the content and the references and then discuss this one? Best I can say is, that the article (as it reads and in using common sense) fails verification and as such notability, maybe? It's just weird nonsense to me. Thank you!

  • My initial impression is that this should not be deleted. I find it credible that there can be multiple "black days" in Nepal, and a brief perusal of the sources shows the language "black day" applied to multiple tragic events. Bus stop (talk) 18:23, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's common practice to call "Black day" when something one dislikes happens, at least in South Asia (just google black day news). One group can call a "Black day".That's not the same as a country observing a black day, like an anniversary. And a news report can characterise a tragedy as a black day. That's just a figure of speech. "Black day" is a common phrase of protest/tragedy in South Asia (maybe elsewhere too?). But that's not what this article is about. Black day, here, is akin to Independence day, as far as I can tell. Usedtobecool (talk) 18:39, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. These appear to be events described as "black day"s. These are not officially recognized, recurring occurrences - no black days in Public holidays in Nepal. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:26, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • DELETE - This strikes me as being more appropriate for wiktionary. From reading a batch of articles it seems that during some protests, people have carried small black flags [ref.9] or black armbands, and called for black-outs for an hour. So I think it means something distinct from the English-language usage. It may be a colloquialism but news stories use the term as a proper noun that doesn't require elaboration.
The other use is the same as everywhere else in the world — an allusion to a very bad day — and seems to be used in the Nepalese wiki for a recent, terrible earthquake. A search through ne.wiki for "कालो दिन" came up with three results including also WWI and in the works of a poet. Given potential language issues, and because of WP:NOTDIC, I don't think it should have a page here but I do think it should have representation within the wiki system. Perhaps some of the page's contents related to the 2015 constitution should be added to that page as there seems to be news coverage of the protests although I didn't see an in-depth description of the issues (but I wasn't looking for one). ogenstein (talk) 03:30, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary DAB page. First two entries are not titled Game show, they are a single word. Second two just start with "Game Show" and there is no evidence that they are referred to just as 'game show.' DAB pages are not meant to be a collection of articles which start with a phrase. As such, none of the entries are proper and the DAB pages is unneeded. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 17:01, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep, or possibly weak move to Gameshow (disambiguation). Keep Your concerns about the final two entries are justified, but the first, inline, entry on game shows is legitimate, and there is no other disambiguation page for the first two bulleted, single word entries. There should probably be some page to disambiguate Gameshow (magazine), Gameshow (album), and the general concept of a Game show. I am only voting weak keep however, since it would also be acceptable to use these as hatnotes. MarginalCost (talk) 17:36, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

er... where do you get the idea that it’s possible someone would shorten the game show network to game show? It doesn’t make any logical sense to do so. Further you don’t address why it wouldn’t make more sense to move the page to Gameshow ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 22:18, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • DELETE - Per WP:DABLINK usage guidelines, it is '…Preferable not to add disambiguation links to a page whose name already clearly distinguishes itself from the generic term.' The articles named here are distinct enough that they would not be confused. Two asides: First, if the page was necessary then it would be fine if it contained both 'game show' and 'gameshow' as per WP:DABCOMBINE which provides the example of 'eagle nest' and 'eaglenest' (and more); Second, the 'network' should be removed, per WP:PARTIAL. Otherwise, you'd need multiple DAB pages just for entries such as 'school' or 'book', but those pages are very limited. Finally, the general concept of 'game show' should be addressed on the 'game show' page, not a disambiguation page. ogenstein (talk) 04:51, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as per nom. 100% agreed on all counts. Furthermore, related articles Kathmandu Tribune, the digital paper output by the company, and Arun Budhathoki, the founder of both, all deserve deletion. I don't think there should be any controversy on any of them. This is obviously one guy trying his damndest to publicise himself via wikipedia. Arun Budhathoki should be deleted as per WP:PROMOTION. Arun Budhathoki cites a list of pages, that attribute authorship to the subject and none that discuss the subject itself. So, it fails WP:GNG miserably short of synthesis which would be WP:OR. I bring these up only because I have previously encountered a similar network of wiki articles and corresponding sources which as a whole would make the case quite clear and yet, it becomes harder than it should be when each article is taken one at a time. Because, well, we have "national media" like "Kathmandu Tribune" where friends can write puff pieces about each other and exchange favours writing wikipedia articles about each other citing these same "credible media sources", and so on. If editors would look in on all three of these articles, and provide their feedback, I/we could proceed with putting the other two up for discussion as well. Usedtobecool TALK
BTW, Kathmandu Tribune and Nepal Tribune Media were both created by User:Ozar77 and I haven't looked in detail into their contributions. But, Arun Budhathoki was written by User:Dansong22 which is signed 'ArunBudhathoki' on the userpage which seems to make the page an autobiography by a user with an undisclosed COI.

Ozar77 a company is not entitled to a Wikipedia article merely because it exists. Wikipedia has an inclusion criteria. A topic must qualify under our Notability guideline. More specifically, companies are evaluated under the NCORP subject-specific guidelines. If you want to avoid deletion of this article, you need to present a valid argument and/or evidence that Nepal Tribune Media does qualify for inclusion in the encyclopedia under the NCORP guideline. Also, it is unclear what "random Nepali guy" you are referring to. I am the one who nominated the article for deletion, and I have never been within four thousand miles of Nepal.

    • She has a significant cult following.
    • The person has played a major role in creating a national film.
    • The person has made a widely recognized (miss world bangladesh runner up title).
    • There are many model and actress of bangladesh articles are staying in wikipedia whom are not received any awards or nominations.

    • All the references to the article are written about her.
    • She appears in now several television show.

Thirteen of the 19 references require fluency in the Bengali script and language. None of the 19 references offer a wikilink for the publisher.

  • keep, she is a notable model from Bangladesh and a rising actress . She had coverage on bangladeshi printing media. So if we want, the trivial source problem could be solved. ferdous 04:44, 29 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"a rising actress" has a definite meaning, it means "not yet notable as an actress."
It is claimed above she won Miss World. This is not the case. She did not win even Miss World Bangladesh. She was a runner-up. Only the winner is notable. Had she won, I would not have nominated the article for AfD.
and I agree with the i.p. editor above: "cult following" is a reason to be very careful before accepting notability. If I were closing an afd, I would completely discount any argument that includes this, because it shows no awareness of WP policy. Only policy based arguments count.

  • DELETE - These citations are awful regardless of how many there are. Celebrity news churn isn't notability. These are trivial mentions, nothing more, e.g. she was named runner-up, she's in a movie yet to be made, she flew to the US (and incidentally, I searched on a NY Bangladesh news site and came up with nothing). Several of the articles merely repeat the same 'news'. The Daily Sun piece looks like it came from an OCR'd copy. [19][24][22] Using ten citations to state that she is getting a role in an upcoming movie doesn't make her a notable actress, nor does using three that mention she was the runner up in a pageant make her notable. First runner-up isn't an award. A seating plan?
WP:NACTOR specifies 'multiple notable films' when she doesn't have one yet. WP:BASIC states that coverage 'must be more than trivial'. WP:HITS specifies that undue weight should not be given to matters related to popular culture, 'popularity is not notability'. And that some subjects, "…May be on 700 pages and might still not be considered 'existing' enough to show any notability, for Wikipedia's purposes." WP:TOOSOON Two sentences is not a biography.

  • Delete – First of all, Johnpacklambert, that's a little too harsh of a thing to say about a WP:BLP. Let's remember the article subjects are innocent victims of our deletion discussions, they don't deserve to be trashed. Coming in second place in one pageant doesn't make a person a "failed beauty queen", anyway. But I agree with JPL here (as I often do) that the article should be deleted. The keep !votes above are highly unconvincing. The number of sources doesn't matter. That she is an actress, even a popular or famous one, also doesn't matter. "Cult following" isn't automatic notability, either. Many of the keep !votes have very low edit counts and perhaps do not fully understand Wikipedia's notability guidelines, which I hope the closer pays attention to. The article is WP:REFBOMBed, but going through the sources, including the foreign-language ones with Google Translate, I see not one single source that would count as significant coverage sufficient to meet WP:BASIC. They all seem to be passing mentions. Unless someone can demonstrate WP:THREE examples of sources that would meet BASIC, this article should be deleted. Levivich 05:07, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

      For around 18 years Birmingham-based Data Design Interactive has been churning out top-notch games for some of the industry's most prestigious publishers. Working for Sony, Millennium, PSS, Psygnosis, Ocean and Infogrames on projects such as Pegasus Bridge, ROBOCOD, Rise of the Robots and Water World to name a few, Data Design has earned a reputation as one of the UK's top games developers. Their experience developing for the Spectrum, Amstrad, Amiga, Game Boy, PC, Sega Megadrive and, of course, the Playstation, put them in the perfect position to take advantage of the games industry's soaring popularity. But as we found out, the folks at Data Design have more than video games on their mind...

      The Kidz Sports Series -- Kidz Sports: Basketball, Hockey, and International Soccer

      Developer: Data Design Interactive
      Publisher: Bold Games
      Year: 2008
      Score: 1.0

      The sad thing about really terrible games is that, more often than not, they're marketed towards children. It adds insult to injury when the general consensus of the industry seems to be that children don't deserve good games. Developer Data Design Interactive made not one, but three horrendously bad sports games geared towards youngsters. The graphics looked 10 years old, the gameplay was slow, the AI acted like they didn't even know how to play the game. The motion controls were so glitchy that it was hard to actually perform any of the moves. And on top of everything, the three games were nearly identical, despite these three sports being very different.

      Okay, we don't mean this to be mean, but maybe it's time Data Design Interactive stopped making Wii games. We've never seen a developer that spit out so many consistently awful titles in such a short time. Nearly every game we've reviewed under a 3.0 has come from this developer. That is just incredible.

      Wrapping it up this week is, as expected, a representative from our good friends over at Data Design Interactive. You've got to hand it to those guys -- they don't just suck in one genre. They spread the wealth around, ensuring that they've earned the lowest ratings possible in every single category of gaming there is. For sports sims, look no further than the Kidz Sports series to find the lowest-rung, most bottom-of-the-barrel sports games possible on the Wii.

      And, yes, I didn't mistype there -- it's a whole series. Basketball, Soccer. Hockey's just one of the whole big bunch. You're better off with any other hockey game ever created than this one, though, as it's just offensive with broken motion controls, dumbed-down mechanics and presentation that is literally cut-and-pasted from other Data Design products. If there are some kids in your life that you really can't stand, get them a Kidz Sports game on Wii. That'll teach 'em.

      The article notes:

      Action Girlz Racing was brought to us at the very beginning of 2008, too, almost a harbinger of the woes to follow -- it was released by Data Design Interactive and Conspiracy Entertainment in January of last year alongside a whole slew of other top-quality products like Rig Racer 2, Classic British Motor Racing and the sensational London Taxi: Rush Hour. And, in true Data Design style, it's essentially another copy of those same games.

      See, Data Design's developers made the decision to go for quantity over quality with their racing titles on Wii, and so came up with just one design -- but then gave it a half-dozen different coats of paint, in order to release it over and over as a bunch of "different" games. If you boot up any one of them, you've seen them all. And, sure enough, Action Girlz has the same menu design, control scheme and overall setup as all the rest. Its closest counterpart has to be Myth Makers: Super Kart GP, yet another effort from the same developer, released just one month earlier, that also bends this same engine toward the kart-racing subgenre.

      Anubis II was one of a slew of terrible budget Wii titles developed by the now-defunct UK-based Data Design Interactive. Infamous for copying level designs wholesale from their previous titles, slapping a new coat of paint on them, and declaring them to be entirely new games, the company eventually caved in 2012 due to insolvency. Anubis II would be a relatively inoffensive, basic platformer were it not a total reskin of Ninja Breadman, Rock n’ Roll Adventures, and Trixie in Toyland—all of which were also developed by Data Design. All of these games are, apart from some visual variations, exactly the same. The funniest thing about Anubis II, however, is that there never was an original Anubis game—not that anyone would have asked for one to be made.

      The article notes:

      What you might not have noticed, though, is that a division of Destineer known as Bold Games was responsible for all six of the $20 Wii games released this week in North America.

      When it comes to how and why this happened, it's a case of simple economics. Rinde was in Europe when he found out that Data Design Interactive was looking for a company to publish its games in America, a role that Destineer eventually filled. Rinde garnered interest for these games from retailers, and sure enough, six DDI games ended up on the shelf for the week of 12/31.

      ...

      We can't say for a fact that all the Destineer games released for the Wii this week were absolute crap, but considering that DDI is the same company that developed Ninjabread Man, we don't have high hopes. Even if games like these are selling to the public, low-quality games only create consumer distrust for third parties, ultimately hurting sales for the good games out there.

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

    Cunard (talk) 09:31, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cunard, none of these are significant coverage of the subject and do not assert its notability, they just have side-mentions of them in articles about their games. Note that many of their games do have articles, but notability is still not inherited. Lordtobi () 09:39, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline says, "'Significant coverage' addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material."

My opinion is that the sources "addres[s] the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content".

Animation World Network says Data Design Interactive "has been churning out top-notch games for some of the industry's most prestigious publishers" and " has earned a reputation as one of the UK's top games developers". It notes that Data Design Interactive has worked for "Sony, Millennium, PSS, Psygnosis, Ocean and Infogrames on projects such as Pegasus Bridge, ROBOCOD, Rise of the Robots and Water World". It notes that Data Design Interactive has developed for "Spectrum, Amstrad, Amiga, Game Boy, PC, Sega Megadrive and, of course, the Playstation". This is significant coverage in reliable sources.

IGN notes about Data Design Interactive's The Kidz Sports Series: "Developer Data Design Interactive made not one, but three horrendously bad sports games geared towards youngsters". It then says about "The rest of Data Design Interactive's Library": "Okay, we don't mean this to be mean, but maybe it's time Data Design Interactive stopped making Wii games. We've never seen a developer that spit out so many consistently awful titles in such a short time. Nearly every game we've reviewed under a 3.0 has come from this developer. That is just incredible."

A second IGN article notes "You've got to hand it to those guys -- they don't just suck in one genre. They spread the wealth around, ensuring that they've earned the lowest ratings possible in every single category of gaming there is." The article then provides an example about Data Design Interactive's hockey game: "it's just offensive with broken motion controls, dumbed-down mechanics and presentation that is literally cut-and-pasted from other Data Design products".

The Gamer noted that Data Design Interactive is "Infamous for copying level designs wholesale from their previous titles, slapping a new coat of paint on them, and declaring them to be entirely new games". It says Anubis II is "a total reskin of Ninja Breadman, Rock n’ Roll Adventures, and Trixie in Toyland", which were also created by Data Design Interactive. It notes that Data Design Interactive shuttered in 2012 because of insolvency.

There is enough material about Data Design Interactive's reputation and practices (positive material from Animation World Network and negative material from IGN, The Gamer, and Engadget) to allow it to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.

      Catfish Jim, I'm well aware of our notability guidelines, and it is clear that the sources mentioned above do not establish notability for this topic. Not only do most of these not exceed one single mention, none of them actually goes in detail with it. Per WP:GNG: "... Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention ..."
      • First IGN source mentions two games developed by the company, plus an opinion on that DDI was bad at making Wii games. That's one sentence.
      • Second and third IGN source each mention another game, and that they were copied from another game they made. One sentence total.
      • TheGamer (which is also not reliable) only mentions one other game by the studio, not worth a sentence as we already have a list.
      • Engadget only says that several games were published by Destineer. If you're generous, one more sentence.
      • The only high flyer here is AWN, which has ... 7 mentions. What does this source contain? Location, head of art department, sister studio, some more games they worked on, as well as some partners they worked with. Except for the games and parterns (where in "partner" means "they published a game"), give each one sentence. What are we left with? Six sentences, or in our terms, a bad stub.

Ref 1 and 3 and press releases, 2 is already in the article, ref 4 is the same as this, which is also already in the article. And yes, I've been looking for sources. I have been looking out for such since 2016, and the lack of in-depth sources makes the non-notability of this company pretty obvious. If you'd check the article for a second, you'll see that I already incorporated the above sources that apparently assert the topic's notability, and it is still a way-too-short stub.

  • Keep Coverage given is sufficient to prove notability. Also the number of blue links in the list of games they created that are notable enough to have their own Wikipedia article. A writer is notable for their books, a musician is notable for their songs, and a game company is notable for its games. Dream Focus 17:15, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Dream Focus, your reasoning directly contradicts WP:INHERIT. Shall mean, a company is not notable just because it made some notable games. If there is no information available except that it made X games, there is no reason in keeping what is basically a WP:DIRECTORY. Lordtobi () 17:17, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You should read that essay more closely. You don't get notability for being related to someone. It also reads: "That is not to say that this is always the case (four of the notability guidelines, for creative professions, books, films and music, do allow for inherited notability in certain circumstances)". So while all the games they made aren't notable just because the company is, the company is notable for what it creates. Just as all the books a notable writer makes don't inherit notability, the author is judged by their notable works to determine their own notability. Dream Focus 17:27, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Inheritence works both ways. Please take a look at the current state of the article, it is merely a few introductory sentences, and then a full-on WP:DIRECTORY. The introductory sentences are based on all the sources (excl. press releases and duplicates) that this AfD has come up with thus far or was already in the article. Given the company's unpopularity and death seven years ago, it is also unlikely to expand. Does it look like a notable topic to you? Lordtobi () 17:31, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"the company is notable for what it creates" What notability guideline are you basing this on? The closest exception to the WP:NOTINHERITED argument is WP:AUTHOR, which is for people and for significant influential works, not a few random video games. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 18:38, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Lordtobi's analysis. There is no significant coverage of this company. The sources given here do not "address the topic directly and in detail". This article will never evolve beyond the sad depressing stub it is now. TarkusABtalk 18:15, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'd like to point out that this would be a valid list article. List of games made by Data Design Interactive. 15 of the games have their own articles. How about a compromise for now where we just rename it to be a list article? Dream Focus 17:26, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Dream Focus, the company made like 100 shovelware titles, being able to source 15 of them is a bad rate, so either it would be a woefully incomplete list article, or a mostly unsourced list article. I'd prefer to have neither. Besides, just like the developer's article, articles like Kawasaki Jet Ski and Kawasaki Snowmobiles should be deleted, as they only have one source and basically no content. An American Tail is just a redirect to the film of the same name, where there is literally just one sentence on the matter. Lordtobi () 18:22, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I will get into this matter soon detailed, but Dream Focus, I am looking at those blue-linked games, and I would be surprised if majority of those (so 8 of 14 alive) would stay as is if brought to AfD. Also I am willing to (ironically) not count IGN review considering they reviewed EACH and EVERY of those and regularly trashing them in the posts, which makes me think the publisher and IGN had a bad relationship and they "reviewed" to mock them for how bad they are, which wouldn't and shouldn't add to notability of these. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 23:40, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete And to put my formal vote for th subject failing WP:NCORP. "A company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject", you say? Then let's analyze each reference put here (going numerically from Cunard to Catfish Jim ones):
1.This is a great source and by far the best of the bunch which would meet the criteria. However, majority of this significant coverage relates to developing a notable game Lego Rock Raiders (video game).
2."Data Design Interactive made horrible games" and "maybe it's time Data Design Interactive stopped making Wii games" does not constitute as WP:SIGCOV.
3."You've got to hand it to those guys -- they don't just suck in one genre. They spread the wealth around, ensuring that they've earned the lowest ratings possible in every single category of gaming there is." is not WP:SIGCOV.
4.Passing mention in another IGN's attack against Data Design Interactive.
5.Name drops in a paragraph about the game they developed is certainly not enough.
6."Rinde was in Europe when he found out that Data Design Interactive was looking for a company to publish its games in America, a role that Destineer eventually filled." Not WP:SIGCOV. Maybe in Wonderland.
Catfish 1. Press release as obvious by the way of writing.
Catfish 2. Another press release.
Catfish 3. Press release #3.
Catfish 4. Release in press...oh wait. It's not! But too bad, "Having secured developer status for Wii, Data Design Interactive has announced details of its titles heading to Nintendo's innovative console." along with a list of their games is not enough to be counted for WP:GNG, and absolutely not for WP:CORPDEPTH.

Reads like an advertisement. Has been tagged for notability for two years without improvement. Substantially written by promotional editors. Negligible sourcing.

Best discuss this time. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Intellectual dark web has many "keep" votes. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:00, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep the term has proved its persistance and is not going away any time soon. We have for example this May 22, 2019 article in the The Chronicle of Higher Education.[24] and this April 4th article takes the IDW as its central focus examining its political makeup.[25], and couple more from April.[26][27] The number of articles mentioning the term has grown a lot since previous discussions. The merge solution is not very suitable as Weinstein is not the most promenent person associated with the movement. There is a lot of material which would be appropriate for a separate article but is not suitable for the Eric Weinstein article.
I also disagree quite strongly with User:Sandstein closure of the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Intellectual Dark Web. In it the large number of references are dismissed mearly as opinion pieces. But we have NYT article which had the entire weight of the paper thrown behind the article, there were interviews with the major player and photoshoots, it was much more than a simple think piece. And what are we trying to prove here the notability of the article, an opinion piece strenthens that claim. Sandstein set the bar much higher that is applied to most other articles. --Salix alba (talk): 16:39, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • In the page's current state it should be moved to Wikisource as it basicly just the poem itself, but I do believe an article can be created about this poem, so I would say Move to Wikisource, and then create a stub or translation of the French article. funplussmart (talk) 23:44, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, it's already present twice on the french wikisource. Regards, Comte0 (talk) 11:27, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • "Not here" is not a reason for deletion in Wikipedia:deletion policy and is incoherent as a rationale. I also do not believe that anyone this far in the discussion has read the source cited. This is not some indiscriminate spelling alphabet being made up on the spot. This is, according to the source cited, the one mandated by Korean law for radio operators, which it seems perfectly valid for a encyclopaedia to document for readers. Ironically, this article, citing the regulations for radio operation on a government WWW site in its first edit, is better sourced than our SKATS article has been (sourced to a personal WWW site whose owner died) since 2006. For those now looking, you want Table 4 in Annex 1 of the cited regulations, as referenced by Article 4 of the regulations. Uncle G (talk) 06:18, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, somewhere. It's sourced, and it answers the question of what other languages do. This seems like reasonable encyclopedic information, not an indiscriminate collection. I don't think there's room to add it to Hangul. We do have a page for the NATO alphabet, plus a Greek-language one. We have extensive coverage of the evolution of spelling alphabets; again, the page would be overloaded to add the non-Roman alphabets there. I'm thinking either keep the status quo or make one page for non-Roman alphabets. —C.Fred (talk) 20:56, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article was PRODed with the rationale "Unable to find any reliable sources that verify these claims. Links given are broken or do not mention him. There is another Eric Opoku who played with the national under-17 team but he does not have the nickname Diego. I suspect this is made up, like the author's other articles." The next day, the article's author removed the PROD and added more material. But the PROD rationale still stands - there are no sources in the article that even mention him, and I can find no evidence of him other than a Facebook account that might be him.

  • Delete the article because two reason, first it's not notable itself and second the lack of enough reliable sources that cover the subject.Forest90 (talk) 13:52, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I have no idea what to do with this. There are a number of sources which actually do mention an Erick Opoku playing for Dynamos [32] [33] [34] [35] There's also a mention of the possible other Erick Opoku here [36]. Other references I've found, though not necessarily passing GNG, include [37] and [38], but I'm not sure if it's about the same footballer. Further complicating things is it appears "Eric Opoku" is also a soccer journalist and the regional minister of Brong-Ahafo region, but "Eric Opoku" clearly exists per Soccerway. I have no idea what to do with this, but I think we have to delete for now even though there's some level of verification with the Zimbabwe press reports. SportingFlyer T·C 21:01, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – This one is like a puzzle, you have to analyze both possibilities: that Eric Opoku and Erick Opoku are one and the same, a single Ghanian footballer who played in the Ghana Premier League and the Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League in the 2010s, in which case, this article, Erick Opoku, should be deleted as a WP:FORK or duplicate of Eric Opoku (relevant content, once verified, can be merged), because we should only have one article about the subject. On the other hand, if Erick Opoku is a different Ghanian footballer, who played in Zimbabwe for the Dynamos while Eric Opoku was playing in Ghana, then the Erick Opoku article should be deleted because Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League isn't listed on WP:FPL and there's no evidence of the subject meeting WP:NFOOTY, and none of the sources in the article or in this AfD even come close to meeting WP:GNG. In sum, neither Eric nor Erick Opoku meet GNG, but Eric Opoku meets NFOOTY (via Soccerway and other refs put forward here), while Erick Opoku does not. Levivich 05:37, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • It took about 15 seconds to turn up an entire book on the subject, ISBN 9780240804255 published in 2000 and written by the person who was the head of engineering at the Israel Broadcasting Authority for several years. Xe also wrote an encyclopaedia of of television and radio terminology, published in 2015, which has an entry for this on page 170. And that was just the first minute of looking. A few moments more effort turns up a SIGGRAPH paper by Peter Wißkirchen from 1996, and papers such as doi:10.1109/93.664740 that then cite M. Wißkirchen. And that's not even yet looking at things like doi:10.1109/93.502291 or considering the alternative name virtual set.

The parent article K–W United FC is barely notable itself and does not not need an all-time roster subpage. In particular, this list fails WP:LISTPEOPLE as the vast majority of names included do not meet the Wikipedia notability requirement.

  • Delete - non-notable list of non-notable people. GiantSnowman 07:37, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep or merge to K–W United FC - If the team is deemed notable then a list of players is likely legitimate content for the encyclopedia. Whether this list is in K–W United FC, split out into this separate list or not included anywhere is a decision for the article editors, not AfD. ~Kvng (talk) 12:24, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Not to argue with your vote, but I want to record my strong disagreement with the principle that if a team is notable, a list of its players is therefore encyclopedic content, which I think is exactly what WP:NOTADIRECTORY is about. We wouldn't, for example, have a complete list of the employees, or even the executives, officers or directors, of a company, no matter how notable the company is. We wouldn't have a complete list of all the residents of a notable town. A complete roster is, in my opinion, the very opposite of encyclopedic content, which is about curation and summation, not exhaustively-complete documentation. That is one of the very key differences between an encyclopedia, on the one hand, and a directory or an almanac, on the other. </rant> Levivich 23:56, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Sure but my point is that I see this as either being kept or merged or redirected to the club's article; I don't see a good case or need for outright deletion. Whenever matters like this can be handled with bold edits instead of deletion, we all come out ahead. ~Kvng (talk) 13:55, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Merge to K-W United FC - The main thing here is the fact that its already part of the K-W United article and it doesn't really need to be seperated into a seperate article. Also if we are going to delete this page, may I also add All-time Hamilton FC roster to this discussion as this is a redirect to the article in question.

The subject does not pass the notability criteria for entertainers and musicians. She has no personal work outside the band, the roles she has in films, tv shows, etc, are all minor, she has no significant contribution in any entertainment field, and thus she has no established notability that warrants a stand-alone article for her, unlike her fellow member Cherprang Areekul.

A couple of them used the exact same verbiage. She probably isn't completely typical of others in her industry in that she has her own company, and has appeared in some other types of shows but do these things make her notable?

  • Keep – meets WP:BASIC/WP:GNG with significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The WP:THREE are [44] [45] [46], and if you don't like EB as an WP:RS, there's BT, and if you don't like BT as an WP:RS, there's the TV2 documentary, and there are yet more out there (here's one about whether her Wikipedia article lists her correct weight or not, LOL, I think they have a point: why was weight in the article? Is she like a boxer that has to meet a certain weight class?). Levivich 04:41, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think anyone is suggesting that she doesn't exist, just that the type of coverage she receives does not support her having a standalone page. I see some comments as to her meeting WP:BASIC but when I consider those linked pages, I'm not convinced. The EB piece about her wiki page is trivial. Getting blocked on FB for a month?

there still is not enough for notability of a specific collection. The reviews are pure routine. The analogy here is the notability of a mixtape. The repackaging of previously published material does not make for separate notability . DGG ( talk ) 06:35, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I wonder. "Lansdale brings his East Texas noir style to another dynamite collection of short stories that show off his humor, his range, and his creativity. Although some of these tropes will be familiar to longtime Lansdale readers, every story still feels electric and fresh, bringing something new to the table. And getting Lansdale’s insights into each story after reading it is just icing on the cake. This is marvelous stuff all around." --- doesn't sound like "pure routine" to me. San Francisco Book Review, a proper review conducted with attention and respect. BTW it's Joe R. Lansdale. Chiswick Chap (talk) 12:41, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's the stories that may even be individually notable. They have all been published previously. This is just a reprinted collection of them. Are you saying that Lonsdales's individual comments about his own stories are separately notable, for each group of stories that gets reprinted? DGG ( talk )

  • DELETE - This is a limited run collection and really shouldn't have its own page. The reviews are all perfunctory, and that's not an inherently bad thing — after all, these stories have all been published already. Why would there be a serious review. Given the small print run, it's not like it would really be worth the effort. The verbiage from the SFBR 'review' could be applied to any similar collection. I don't believe anyone read the book (which would apply to any of the several reviews I read). Even had the site done so, I don't see how it would be considered a reliable source given their stated purpose (reviews in bulk). As an aside, on the bibliography page, shouldn't it be characterised as a collection of shorts rather than novellas? ogenstein (talk) 20:32, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect, no need for an AfD - Per WP:WPSCHOOLS/AG#N - "Non-notable school articles are generally blanked and redirected to the school district's article (USA) or to an appropriate section on the article about its locality (rest of the world) and merging any appropriate content. The R from school template should be placed on the redirect page, which then also automatically populates the related category.

  • Delete. London, Ontario is not a global city for the purposes of getting its city councillors over WP:NPOL #2, and people do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in federal elections they have not yet won. To get an article for being a city councillor, he would have to be sourceable to much more than just local coverage as being much more nationally notable than most other city councillors in Canada, and to get an article out of the federal election, he would have to win the seat on election day. So no prejudice against recreation on or after October 20 if he wins, but nothing here is a reason why he would already be eligible for an article today.

@Asgrrr: Hey there! There are a few rules with this type of thing, but the most relevant guideline is Wikipedia:Notability. You may also like to read the deletion policy which has the most important, top-level, information concerning article deletion on Wikipedia. In reference to your exact concern, WP:NOTINHERITED would be a good start (whereas a notable person might discuss a variety of topics, but those topics as themselves are not inherently notable). There are several alternatives to deletion you may also want to consider in response to the concerns brought up here. I hope this helps! MJLTalk 03:03, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NPOL explicitly states that an 'unelected candidate for political office' has no guarantee of notability. And all of the news results were for other people. Even removing the bracketed words and then adding the riding name did not provide a single result pointing to him. No 'newspaper' results at all. As an aside, his party does not have a strong track record in that riding.

  • Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in future elections — Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a free webhost for campaign literature. To get a Wikipedia article because politics, he would have to win the seat on October 20, and thereby hold the office of MP — and short of that, he has to be demonstrated as already having preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten him an article anyway.

Maybe another week around the AFD track can illicit some more input and either help the article be improved or gain a more solid consensus.
