  • Delete. Columbia MO is not a global city for the purposes of getting a city councillor over WP:NPOL #2 the easy way, so its city councillors only get into Wikipedia if they make it the harder way: show a depth of substance and sourcing that marks them out as a special case of significantly greater notability than most other city councillors. That's not what's in evidence here, however. Bearcat (talk) 18:01, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's been 12 years since the last AfD for this article, but I think it's still shy of meeting WP:GNG or other guidelines. All coverage in reliable sources appears to be quite trivial; I can find almost no biographical information about the subject in reliable sources beyond their involvement in a few projects of minor notability. The most significant coverage that I've seen between the sources provided and an internet search is this. Additionally, it may be worth noting that some of the article's claims about Tacocopter, one of Simpson's more notable projects, appears to be misleading based on this Wired article. signed, Rosguill talk 23:19, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Seems no better than the last time it was created, clear delete then and still is. Does not meet WP:GNG. WCMemail 08:55, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment struck due to significant improvement in the article and sourcing since I commented. WCMemail 15:14, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment While tacocopter was indeed just a concept that generated high press hype, the subject's arrest at the train station was a fairly prominent and real news event of the day, indicative of post 9/11 moods. Bradtem (talk) 02:07, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The Wired article referenced above has undisclosed NPV issues. The Chief Editor of Wired at the time, Chris Anderson, was in the process of raising money for his own drone startup, 3DR. The article has other technical inaccuracies, such as referring to Simpson's electronic art as a "hoax explosive device" and referencing Dustin Boyer as a co-founder, despite him having no official association with the project (beyond what he claims). Taking other articles on TacoCopter into account suggests that while it wasn't structured in a way to grow to a functioning company, because of regulatory issues, it did perform a technical demonstration of the underlying concept with real hardware. Cjhandmer (talk) 02:14, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Simpson's former delete page makes several strong points for conditional keep, in the event that Simpson achieved attention for more than the arrest at Boston Logan. Since then Simpson has fairly routinely achieved coverage in national and international news sources in areas related to UAVs, electronic art, and the maker movement. Simpson is one of the most prominent hardware-oriented makers of her generation, and certainly among women of color. I concede that better sourcing is needed for biographical detail and am in the process of improving the article in this regard. Cjhandmer (talk) 02:14, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I went into this conversation thinking that I might vote to delete, but I did some more searching for sources about Simpson before making a decision. Beyond the Boston Logan arrest, I found numerous articles in the New York Times, Forbes, The Verge, and Vanity Fair that covered Simpson's life and work. The story that convinced me to vote to keep this article was learning about Star's role as the central source in a 2018 New York Times investigation that motivated over 20,000 Google employees worldwide to walk out in protest of the company's handling of sexual harassment claims. This story led to the resignation of multiple Google executives in 2018. I have updated the article to include those sources. Given Simpson's status as an internationally-recognized whistleblower, I vote that the article should remain. Rubberpaw (talk) 02:56, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Internationally recognized whistleblower: ✓, One of the most prominent women of color in the hardware maker community: ✓, and of course, arrested during a post 9/11 bomb scare that also created international headlines: ✓. Though the article could be cut down and edited. 73.92.231.99 (talk) 02:08, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I did not vote delete, I left a comment moderately in favour. Where do you get I voted delete? While tacocopter was a concept rather than real service, it was a notable concept. Bradtem (talk) 01:11, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Tagged with a notability concern since 2012. The article doesn't describe censorship in Kashmir in general, rather a single event from 2010 that doesn't seem to have significance long-term, failing WP:NOTNEWS. -- Tavix (talk) 23:04, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep There is no point in deleting this article because this is a serious issue and it is properly referenced. If someone is interested in editing it further, they should be allowed to do it. -- Abhijeet Safai (talk) 05:26, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I think it's clear that this topic meets the general notability criterion that the topic should have been the subject of significant independent coverage. At the moment, the inline references in the article focus on particular media blackouts, but a look at scholar.google.com shows that there's a wider academic discussion of censorship in Kashmir too. I've added Censorship in Kashmir#Further reading to evidence this. It would be easy to add extra news reports on individual episodes of censorship, but I hope the academic bibliography is enough to show notability. Alarichall (talk) 22:17, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Garlicolive: I agree that there is merit to add a section about the effects of terrorism on French tourism to one or both of those articles. However, there is little of substance to salvage from this article as the writing style is very much like an essay or opinion piece. Adding a section or paragraph to those articles would essentially be a complete rewrite. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 07:47, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I do not know french, if this article needs to be rewritten from the french sources then that complicate things, unless new sources are found, but in this case, regardless, then this article cannot be useful for me, anyway. Garlicolive (talk) 02:04, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:NOTESSAY. On second thought, it really is a terrible essay. No prejudice against a well-writtern , well-sourced page on the topic should an editor put the essay into writing one - the impact of the terror attacks (especially 2015 attack) on tourism was a major hit to the French economy and was widely covered in WP:RS.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:43, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is a contrived subject for an article, better presented within a larger context. It also reads awfully close to an essay, either on a personal initiative or as an educational project. On that basis, we should Delete the whole thing or, possibly, and mercifully, Merge what can be salvaged onto the "Tourism in France" article. -The Gnome (talk) 18:59, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article covering the results of national election for a single constituency, which is unnecessary and largely duplicates the content of the article on the constituency (to which anything useful and not already included could be merged). Also nominating the same for the following reason:

For a similar previous AfD, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United Kingdom general election, 2015 (Lancashire) (which actually covered several constituencies). Number 57 18:25, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I contested the PRODs on these articles. They are well researched and well sourced. Most of the candidates are blue linked so appear notable in themselves. I just don’t see what the objection is to these articles. I don’t think ‘not necessary’ is a reason for deletion. Mccapra (talk) 19:15, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Mccapra: Election results for individual constituencies are supposed to be summarised on the constituency article itself (as most of this already is at Tehran, Rey, Shemiranat and Eslamshahr (electoral district). If having results articles for each constituency for each election was deemed acceptable, it would add >10,000 articles just for the UK for the 20th century alone. We're probably talking about close to a million articles if this was copied across all countries. These are the primary reasons why these articles are unnecessary, and there is clear precedent. Number 57 21:59, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Thanks. If this is the norm you’re applying I don’t understand why didn’t you merge the articles rather than PROD them, except that because Iran has large multimember constituencies, trying to roll all this up into a single constituency article would be unworkable. These articles may have an unusually high level of detail but where is the harm in that? It seems to me to be a perfectly good way of presenting information that would be hard to present in any other format. Mccapra (talk) 22:16, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • ok I see that I’ve missed the critical fact that the info is already there on the constituency article. My fault for not not looking. Mccapra (talk) 22:19, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of deadliest animals to humans[edit]

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

(Copying my reasoning from Talk:List of deadliest animals to humans) This list is problematic in several ways:

  1. It is copied from just one source.
  2. The source gives no information about how this list was determined, so "due to any type of cause of death" has simply been made up by the person who wrote this article.
  3. The source lists a total mish-mash of species, genera and higher-level taxons, for example all snakes are lumped together.
  4. According to the source the 24th most deadly animal only killed one person. Of course there are more than 24 types of animal that have killed more than one person: think of all the deadly parasites, to start with. That is obvious nonsense so the source is obviously unreliable.
  5. I'm sure there are many other reasons, but I've already listed more than enough to show that this whole article is complete bollocks.

  • Comment "List of deadliest animals to humans" - To get a list that actually measures what the article states you would need relative numbers not absolute ones: The vast majority of mosquitos we meet do not kill us. Same for humans. When meeting an angry hippo you should be more scared then when riding the subway everyday. There are just many mosqitoes and many humans - but both aren't very deadly as individuals. This is magazine-popular-science, it doesn't make a lot of sense - and i don't think its even supposed to. These list seem to be rather emotional and geared to please certain crowds. Why else would they include humans in the list? A world population of 7,800,000,000 people should makes it obvious that we're not exactly "deadly" to ourselves. I suspect it's there because it has a "wow"-factor and misanthropy has always been popular with certain crowds. Also if u count indirect killings like with the mosquito, shouldn't you count other indirect killings? What about allergic shocks? Humans transmit disease to other humans. I think what would really help that article is a list with relative numbers instead of absolute ones. A list that factors in things like the frequency of encounters. Unfortunately I don't think one exists. I think there's no need to change anything because it's actually obvious, but the lists on the article would accuratetly be called "Animals that as a group cause the most fatalities in humans". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:A61:1105:4901:3C47:DA05:ABFE:E979 (talk) 23:44, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The documentary received a 200-word review by Mary Soete in Library Journal ("The Missions of California", Library Journal volume 124, issue 14, September 1, 1999, page 249) but otherwise does not seem to have received significant coverage in multiple independent RS, or really much coverage at all from anywhere. The article text is clearly promotional, and the reference list is misleading as the listed sources, as best I can tell, do not mention the film at all.

  • Keep or merge(striking merge option since article has been expanded) There are thousands of scientific articles like this on Wikipedia. People searching for it see where to click on to find more information elsewhere. Perhaps consider creating a list of all Candida and then merging some of the shorter candida articles together on it, with the larger ones having their own articles linked to. Candida oleophila Candida bromeliacearum Candida bracarensis etc. are rather short. Is there a bot to look through every article in a category and list their sizes, or compare references to see which ones have the same references and external links? Category:Candida_(fungus) has 29 entries. Dream Focus 19:08, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as one of many proxy shopping services that verifiably exist but do not receive significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, much less to the level required by WP:NCORP.

Thanks GS. (Why do you make me pull teeth, though? You just quoted back to me the same language I had in my initial comment–what's the point of your spending time to do that?) My question is: what "credible claim of significance or importance" does this article make? All it claims is he's a football player in a non-professional league. Why does, or should, this count as "significance" or "importance"? Levivich 18:32, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Because playing football can be a credible claim of significance/importance. A7 is used for really basic things like "X is a man" not "Y is a footballer playing in the top league in his country". GiantSnowman 20:47, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Beyond the rather serious POV issues (e.g "Israeli occupation forces"), this activist is simply not notable. Prior to his death, his social media posts and protesting did not generate SIGCOV. His death, in a shootout with IDF, did generate coverage but of a WP:BIO1E nature and mainly around the event itself. We generally do not maintain bio pages for casualties/martyrs -WP:NOTMEMORIAL.

  • Delete (per Al Jazeera source) Fails WP:SIGCOV. Sourcing to partisan websites like /samidoun.net does not add to notability. There was a brief, minor flurry of coverage limited to the Israel/Palestinian region at the time of the shootout between this armed activist and security forces attempting to arrest him. Post 2017 sources limited to a memorial article in Electronic Intifada, deprecated by noticeboard consensus as "generally unreliable." But WP:NOTMEMORIAL.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:34, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Og this is rich, E.M.Gregory: seeing all those total unknown Israelis you have started WP:MEMORIAL articles on, when they were killed? Your double standards reaches new record height all the time: congratulations. Huldra (talk) 21:06, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep Unlike all those totally unknown Israelis that, say E.M.Gregory and others have started WP:MEMORIAL articles about, Bassel al-Araj was a fairly well known name, at least on the West Bank, before he was killed. (BTW, if this article is deleted, I will AfD dozens and dozens of those WP:MEMORIALs, because then we have a completely new standard here). There are articles about Bassel al-Araj in Jadaliyya, al Jazeera, Middle East Eye, Jerusalem Post, Haaretz, Times of Israel; you name it. Huldra (talk) 21:06, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Not a known name in RSes. Social media is... Social media. WP:OSE on other possible NOTMEMORIAL articles is not a valid AfD rationale.Icewhiz (talk) 21:10, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    It is mentioned in RS that he was a well known name on the West Bank. And that is a valid rationale against AfD, Huldra (talk) 21:20, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Somewhat known social media activist - does not confer notability (nor pre-death coverage in RSes of any note).Icewhiz (talk) 21:22, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Huldra, you may want to reread WP:SOURCES and WP:GNG. I can always be persuaded to reconsider an iVote if someone brings reliable, SECONDARY WP:SOURCES that meet WP:GNG. But coverage has to be SUSTAINED, not, as here, a brief news cycle.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:37, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. A quick search of LexisNexis for al-Araj's name in Arabic script produces a fourteen pieces of newspaper/news agency coverage of him through 2016 in his work as an activist and regarding his imprisonment and trial, alongside the extensive coverage after his death. My Arabic is very poor so I can't add this stuff into the article until I have much more time on my hands, but there material is there. Of course, if we did still conclude that al-Araj is not notable as a person, the article could simply be renamed something like 'Death of Bassel al-Araj' and its notability assessed on that basis.

  • Lack of WP:SUSTAINED coverage of his death (beyond the cycle around the death itself) precludes notability of a "death of" article. Icewhiz (talk) 13:54, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This armed fighter, apparently a pharmacist in his day job, left a suicide note and was killed in a 2-hour gun battle with Israeli authorities. He was an obscure figure before his death, his death was the routine death of individuals who take up arms against a legitimate government, and he has remained obscure in the years since his death. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AndersZorn (talkcontribs) 13:54, 20 March 2019 (UTC) User disallowed from commenting here by WP:ARBPIA3[reply]
  • Keep - per this Al-Jazeera article 2 years later devoted entirely to al-Araj and his impact, demonstrating sustained in-depth coverage. nableezy - 00:27, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I've just emailed User:Nableezy a large collection of Arabic newspaper articles mentioning al-Araj -- including some from before his death. This would definitely improve the source base for this article, and should help establish his notability or non-notability. I'd like to suggest that people hold off deciding about this until Nableezy has had a chance to look at this material and post here, therefore. Alarichall (talk) 00:05, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reiterate my keep from above. Along with the al-Jazeera article two years later entirely about him, there is coverage in November 2018 on his works being published posthumously. There was also contemporary coverage of his arrest in 2016 by the PA, the hunger strike he took, his release ordered by the Palestinian courts, and of Israeli raids on his familys home from 2016-2018 in the sources Alarichall emailed me. These sources span several years, they satisfy the requirement for in depth, sustained coverage. Ill add what I have time for to the article now, but the nomination rationale has been thoroughly debunked. nableezy - 16:40, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Not going to !vote but I think Nableezy does present a quite clear case of notability here. BabbaQ (talk) 22:08, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. Technically one could also say "keep" as the case for it meeting NFOOTY appears to be reasonably widely shared. GNG is murkier as it doesn't seem there are enough substantial sources. On balance a "no consensus" case as there has been a tendency to prioritize GNG criteria over the subject-specific notability critieria, but not to the point where only GNG counts.

  • Questions – The offline sources cited in the article cite to one page each. I don't have access to any of them. For anyone who does, are all of those significant coverage, or some, or none? Also, do those sources (or any) dispute that he played in only 2 games, both as a sub? Thanks. Levivich 00:24, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Of the newspaper sources covering his pre-Football League career, ref currently #3, "Lloyd snapped up by Cardiff" is SIGCOV, the other two are routine two-or-three sentences that say pretty much what they've been used to verify. The Harman book just gives his Worcester City stats. I can't see the Gillingham or Cardiff books, but typically such books give a profile of each player, sometimes brief, sometimes in considerable detail. Don't think there's any doubt that he played in the Football League once each for two different clubs, on both occasions as the substitute (you only got one sub in those days); the article says he also played in the FA Cup for Gillingham. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 14:37, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • His profile in the Gills book is about a third of a page.... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:18, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete – Thanks to Struway and Chris for answering my questions. From what I can gather, this article has 3 NFooty games (2 subs and 1 cup), plus 1 SIGCOV, not enough to meet GNG, so a barely scrapes by NFooty + no GNG = delete for me. Levivich 22:02, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep or move to Draft space: Onel5969 Gene93k Icewhiz The scope of this article is identical to all four articles of murdered students Jeffrey Miller, Sandra Lee Scheuer, Allison Krause, and William Knox Schroeder known for the famous Kent State shootings in 1970. All four of those articles are notable for one event. None of those four articles have any record of being proposed for deletion. What is the difference between the Samuel Hammond Jr. article and those four student articles? Mitchumch (talk) 18:36, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:OSE is a poor argument - and some of those victims may merit deletion as well (though on some of them, it is a harder call). The question is whether the victim has received SIGCOV divorced from the event. For our subject here, our article merely repeats the massacre article, possibly adding: "Hammond grew up with two sisters, Zenobbie Clark and Diana Carter. They called him the affectionate nickname, "Bubba." At the age of 18, Hammond began attending South Carolina State College." and "After receiving the news, his mother was so upset she had to be sedated.". With such additional content there is little merit for a spinoff from the massacre and it does not seem we are anywhere beyond WP:BIO1E. Icewhiz (talk) 18:43, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • These articles show the same problems. Whether there is significant coverage about the persons as individuals to salvage the articles is a matter for another discussion. The Allison Krause article is a marginally better state. As for Samuel Hammond, nobody has found significant reliably sourced biographical coverage yet. • Gene93k (talk) 20:21, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The article is a stub, not a start-class article. Transfer the article to the creator's sandbox so it can be built up. Mitchumch (talk) 21:18, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirecting as proposed will not lose any content. Any editor can restore an article from redirect if and when non-trivial RS coverage for the person can be demonstrated. Moving to draft sets a 6-month clock for the draft to be improved or face a G13 speedy. The biographical content independent of the event is trivial. Keeping a draft with an unsubstantiated hope of improvement accomplishes little. • Gene93k (talk) 21:50, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Transferring the content to the creator's sandbox is an option. Doing so harms no one and nothing. Mitchumch (talk) 22:42, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing is stopping you (or the creator) from doing that now, I will also note that if this closes as a redirect then the contents will be available in the prsenet article's history (on delete - it is gone. Redirect keeps the version history).Icewhiz (talk) 22:49, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep definitely isn't an option. Not even close to passing the WP:GNG, outside of the WP:BIO1E threshold. Not adverse to a redirect, which it should be, except an editor decided to waste a lot of time by reverting the redirect with no explanation, hence creating an AfD discussion on a clear case of WP:BIO1E. And has been pointed out above the WP:OSE argument in this case is incredibly weak. Onel5969 TT me 23:18, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable subject that continues to not meet WP:BASIC. Coverage found in searches for independent, reliable sources consists of minor quotations from the subject, short passing mentions and name checks. The article is reliant upon primary sources, which do not qualify notability.

@Matthew hk: My criticism was of your rationale: [...]since there is no English reliable source for this school[...]. Not having English sources is in and of itself not disqualifying; in fact most articles on topics in non-Anglophone areas aren't going to be in English, and this includes the Subcontinent and surrounding areas. If they weren't able to find any useful sources, then obviously I will defer to their judgment (and abstain from !voting as I can't read it either). —A little blue Bori v^_^v Bori! 01:00, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
There is less than 50 google results by the name shown in the article "বেজপাড়া উচ্চ বিদ্যালয়", i don't want to use the notorious Google Translate which is bad to translate non-Western languages, but by number and their domain, none of them seem significant coverage. Also, no source (no citation in the current wiki article) is a valid reason in Afd to userfiy the article, but may be not suitable as the article creator just ignore the fact that the article was moved to draft.

  • Delete The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education and Amar School.com are trivial coverage. Sohopathi contains slightly more information, but all three are indiscriminate directories that attempt to list every school in Bangladesh. They fail WP:ORGDEPTH and so do not demonstrate notability.
Searches of the usual Google types, including by Bengali-script name, found more directory mirrors, but nothing deep and independent. There is what purports to be a school webpage, but it contains a mix of "Lorem ipsum" text and information about a different school in the district. Whatever one feels about WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES or the related RFC, this high school fails WP:NHSCHOOL.
It, like three quarters of the 20 high schools in the upazila, is so run-of-the-mill that it isn't worth redirecting to Shivalaya Upazila and itemizing there. If we knew which union parishad (the next smaller administrative division) the school is in, I could support redirecting to an article about that union. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:59, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Doesn't seem like an inappropriate advert at all to me, and seems obviously notable. The deletion nomination just asserts it is "non-notable" without explanation, without any mention of wp:BEFORE being performed, so I doubt that wp:BEFORE was performed. Keep also per the "Comment" above which is "leaning towards delete", because it states that it has significant awards and seems likely to have foreign language sources establishing notability and that it has received coverage in multiple sources including the Guardian and more. (Surely that was a less-than-half-hearted "delete" vote).

a short exhibition which probably has no enduring historical significance, how can it be possible to create an article for a single museum exhibition like this, otherwise all museums should by far have a long lists of articles of their exhibitions and talks. 淺藍雪 19:03, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: - Some background on the article: It was created as part of the Asia Art Archive Women in Art Edit-a-thon in Hong Kong, in which new users are asked to write about female artists and art-related articles. A participant, who was a brand new user, wished to create an article on the exhibit. I decided she could do it after she found one local news article (in Chinese) from The Stand News [zh] (立場新聞) and one from the South China Morning Post (SCMP), which would satisfy WP:GNG. As a volunteer at the event I'm aware several articles on other art exhibitions had been created as part of these events. I am interested in knowing whether there is notability criteria specific to art exhibitions (other than GNG), but if not I would use GNG as the guidepost.
WhisperToMe (talk) 19:32, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Answering my own question I found Wikipedia:WikiProject_Contemporary_Art/Notability#Notability_of_events. I'll quote it from here:
"
  • An event that is a precedent or catalyst for something else of lasting significance is likely to be notable.
  • Notable events usually have significant impact over a wide region, domain, or widespread societal group.
  • An event must receive significant or in-depth coverage to be notable.
  • Notable events usually receive coverage beyond a relatively short news cycle.
  • Significant national or international coverage is usually expected for an event to be notable. Wide-ranging reporting tends to show significance, but sources that simply mirror or tend to follow other sources, or are under common control with other sources, are usually discounted."
Since Hong Kong is an SAR, it is de facto treated as a small country for the purposes of "national" reporting, so I would count the SCMP as "national" in this regard. The issue is whether this event will exceed the "news cycle" factor.
WhisperToMe (talk) 19:39, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"Notability is not temporary", and nothing could convince me that this is not a temporary event, and I really doubt a report from the SCMP would make it non-temporary and different from other normal museum events. It may have notability, but a very short one. I would say it is better to wait for some experts on articles about events to judge.--淺藍雪 19:46, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to clarify that the SCMP article is a review by Rachel Cheung (SCMP culture reporter) that goes in detail about the exhibit's themes and the reviewer's opinion of the works, not merely a news announcement that the exhibit's happening. A review of the exhibit would make the case of notability much stronger. WhisperToMe (talk) 19:50, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I still do not think a review is enough to make the event non-temporary, and "the SCMP is a national media" does not make sense to me either.--淺藍雪 20:14, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Re: "the SCMP is a national media" - The SCMP is treated as a newspaper of record of Hong Kong (essentially one of the most important newspapers). Secondly, while Hong Kong is under Chinese sovereignty, it maintains its own borders and customs, autonomous government, currency, etc., and therefore is treated similarly to a small country. This makes the SCMP a "national" publication of Hong Kong. The guidelines on events say "national" coverage has more weight than strictly "local". WhisperToMe (talk) 20:19, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I interpret WP:NTEMP as saying that once notability is established, it is permanent. The temporary nature of the subject is irrelevant: The Armory Show is notable, even though it only lasted 26 days. In retrospect that exhibit was very significant. But we're not here to decide if The Violence of Gender is historically significant (it's too early to tell) but if there is sufficient coverage in independent, reliable sources to sustain an article. Vexations (talk)
There are two independent published sources that make commentary on the subject: SCMP review and The Stand News (in Chinese) - you can google translate to see what this one says, roughly WhisperToMe (talk) 14:08, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the sources are not adequate to establish notability over time. The Armory show, mentioned above, is notable because it has occurred over time and been very widely reviewed. This is a single exhibition with three reviews. If we say that's enough, then we could apply the same criteria to tens of thousands of shows a year. Additionally the only thing the article tells me is that it happened ona certain date, a list of artists participated, and then it goes on to paraphrase the SCMP. We aren't a directory of things that happened, nor are we a news source. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 02:50, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The notability standard for books, for example, is at least two independent secondary sources giving commentary on the subject. The SCMP gives an analysis and commentary, and articles are supposed to paraphrase that. WhisperToMe (talk) 07:16, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is a neologism for pictures taken with a camera phone, and there is already an article for camera phone. Articles on iPhones already cover the imaging capabilities of these devices. Reliable sources certainly talk broadly about technology's impact on the practice of photography, but the term "iPhoneography" is definitely not used in the major photography references.

To show this, I've created IPhoneography#Further_reading, listing nine academic publications/theses on this subject -- and a quick scholar.google.com search shows that there are lots more I could have listed. Certainly this article could be a lot better, but its notability is clear. (Just to respond to some of the comments above, surely merging iPhoneography to Camera phone would be rather like merging Photography to Camera? Likewise, Wikipedia has a rich array of articles on different kinds of photography, listed at Category:Photography by genre. iPhoneography is potentially a great contribution to these.)

If "iPhoneography" were an important topic in its own right then where is the coverage, compared with that for using smartphones in general? How many of the cited sources use the term "iPhoneography"? OF those that are independent reliable sources, zero. The only ones that do are www.iphoneography.com, www.artofiphoneography.com, a book by Apress called iPhoneography, and 9to5Mac quotes a single word tweet from someone at Apple using the word. This is not persuasive evidence. -Lopifalko (talk) 07:34, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As you imply, the term iPhoneography is rather modish -- though it may yet become the dominant term, the way that 'biro' has become the dominant term for 'ballpoint pen' (at least in British English).

Agree with Lopifalko in that the discussion has run its course. As a reviewer at WP:NPP (not that it means anything) I'm of the mind that the topic easily passes GNG.

And every source we have so far is a 1 sentence mention of him. That's it. He played Harmonica. For a lot of good bands and popular albums. Absent someone taking note of him we should not create a biography where reliable sources - not even specialized ones like the Harmonica Encyclopedia with its 1 sentence entry) have not. In this case we literally have 18 sources of 1 sentence each. If we had 1 source of 18 sentences I'd have never even thought of nominating it for deletion.

  • Keep We now seem to have "Jefferey Carp" redirected to "Jeffrey Carp", which at least means we're only looking at one page. I have found several articles about the recordings he was part of. One from 2003 in the Edmonton Journal, about The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions, says "the late Jeffrey Carp provided fireballs of musical punctuation via his blistering shots on harmonica." [13] A 1976 article in the San Francisco Examiner about producer Norman Dayron says "Dayron called harmonica player Jeff Carp "the most important talent I've worked with." Carp drowned in a boating accident at age 19 before Dayron could complete his first album for Capital Records, but Dayron did use the young harp blower on a number of sessions including the "Fathers and Sons" LP and Chuck Berry's "Tulane"." [14] (The latter does not seem to be in the article yet.) There's also a short review in 1970 of The Soulful Strings which mentions "some fine work on harmonica by Jeff Carp" [15]. A review of a live performance by Earl Hooker in the San Francisco Examiner in 1969 (different reviewer from the 1976 article) says "Mouth harpist Jeff Carp out of the Sam Lay Band of Chicago, is magnificent - for my money better than Paul Butterfield (more musical, more inventive)" [16]. There are other, longer reviews, of Muddy Waters' "Fathers and Sons" which just mentions "Jeff Carp on chromatic harp" [17], and of Earl Hooker "Don't Have to Worry" which has "Jeff Carp, mouthharp" [18] - at least useful for verifying those appearances.
Of the sources in the article already, it seems to me that the most reliable are: the Rolling Stone review of Fathers and Sons which includes "By the way, while we’re talking about harmonica playing, there’s superlative chromatic work by Jeff Carp (formerly with Sam Lay, lately working with Earl Hooker) all the way through “All Aboard,” acting as a sort of continue to Muddy’s singing and Paul’s rhythmic interjections, on regular harmonica, on the other channel. But on this track it’s Jeff’s show, and he does a hell of a job." Also the book Earl Hooker, Blues Master which writes about Carp on pages 269-271 and 280 (and gives his middle initial); and the book Moanin' at Midnight: The Life and Times of Howlin' Wolf which writes about Carp on 5 pages, of which we only see 3 snippets online, one of which calls him "Chicago harp wizard Jeffrey Carp".
I would say that the sources I have found, and these 3 sources in the article, meet the WP:BASIC criterion "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability". These sources are definitely not trivial - it's clear that he was extremely talented, and those reviews can be included in the article, with the references supporting the information about the artists he played with and albums he appeared on. RebeccaGreen (talk) 13:17, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Note 3 is 404 not found, and note 4, which is offered as pertaining to Franchise Business Review, is actually a promotional text provided by the article subject, on a site suggestively named PR Newswire.

  • Delete The reasoning provided by Rathfelder is not the criteria used for sources for the purposes of establishing notability. As per WP:ORGIND, the definition of "independent" as applied to "independent secondary sources" means that the sources must contain independent content and excludes articles that rely almost entirely on interviews. Further, merely paraphrasing or repeating company-produced content is not enough as in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. None of the sources provided meet these criteria for establishing notability, therefore topic fails WP:NCORP and GNG. HighKing++ 20:47, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • I cant see anything in the policy which says that we cannot count sources which rely upon interviews. The article in Time has quite a lot of depth. So has the Sunday Times. Ratings by the Care Quality Commission, a statutory body, are completely independent and in considerable depth. Their inspections are precisely investigation, analysis and fact checking. Rathfelder (talk) 22:34, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Rathfelder, section 2.6 of WP:NCORP lists "memoirs or interviews by executives" as an example of a "Primary sources" and cannot be used for the purposes of establishing notability. Also I've pointed out above the criteria for sources must include *original* and *independent* opinion/analysis/investigation/fact checking/etc from sources not affiliated with the subject. Further, while the Care Quality Commission is independent and provides independent analysis/fact checking/etc, the other fact is that they are the independent regulator of health and social care in England and its their job to produce reports on *all* health care providers and as such is not an indication of notability. HighKing++ 13:56, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • The notability as far as CQC reports are concerned is not the existence of the reports. It's the categorisation as outstanding. Not at all commonplace. It appears to me that you are setting a standard of notability far above the vast majority of our articles about organisations. Rathfelder (talk) 16:09, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
          • Except the CQC reports do not meet the criteria for establishing notability since it is mandatory for the CQC to produce a report on each establishment. The subsequent categorisation is therefore of not consequence. Also, the guidelines containing the criteria for organisations is the same and each are held to the same standard - documented in WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 22:07, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • NB the question of notability is considered in relation to the existence of evidence. Not just what is in the article. Many of the references to the firm in the USA are not available to me because I am in the UK. Furthermore there is probably coverage in other languages in the other countries in which the firm operates.Rathfelder (talk) 17:01, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
          • Can you explain why you say "the references to the firm in the USA are not available to me because I am in the UK"? I would have thought that Google would work just fine regardless? HighKing++ 22:07, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

More to the point, he has a couple of minor writing credits on IMDB [38], this is not a WP:RS, but it is a useful way to check on potential notability, writing credits for a fee sitcom episodes ≠ notability. a gNews search [39] doesn't either.

  • Delete There is no article Lubbad85 (talk) 03:48, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There is no article because the subject of the article deleted most of it, and then an IP editor removed the rest of the content. One Google result shows "Canadian Screen Award for Best Writing in a Variety or Sketch Comedy Program or Series" attached to his name - I haven't really tried to verify that, as it seems that Wikipedia doesn't consider it a notable award category anyway (at least, it doesn't have a bluelink in the Canadian Screen Awards article). Searching on Michael Balazo's name, I can find a review and a short para about the Gentlemen Callers on Newspapers.com [40], [41], and an article in an ezine with one longish sentence about him, and some quotes from him [42]. While it might be possible to find more, these meagre results don't suggest a strong notability that would warrant an article whether the subject wants it or not. RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:29, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. While he does have a Canadian Screen Award nomination for television writing, and thus would be eligible to have an article if it were properly sourced, clearing a notability criterion in theory does not constitute a free exemption from actually having to have any reliable source coverage about him. For one thing, he received the nomination as one member of a 14-person writing team, not as an individual in his own right — and for another, the problem with Canadian Screen Awards is that ever since the Genie-Gemini merger exploded the number of CSA categories into the hundreds, media don't publish the complete list of nominees anymore but just selectively report the most high-profile categories. So we have to rely on the Academy's own website to get a CSA article finished — but we still get blocked because the Academy has either discontinued or technically forked up (I'm not sure which) its historical database of past winners and nominees, so at the moment even the nomination itself can't actually be sourced anywhere but the show's own self-published press release tooting its own horn. (Which is why the category article's missing: it's not that it isn't a notable category in theory, it's that we can't find the proper sources in fact to actually build an article about it with.) And that's exactly why a CSA nomination, in one of the less important categories, is not an inclusion freebie that exempts a person from actually having to have any sources at all.

  • This is a notable musician and does meet at least one of the criteria for notable musicians and ensembles. I feel that this article can be kept on Wikipedia. It just needs updating and improvement. This musician is very well recognized where he is from in Eswatini and is one of the first public figures from the country to have success and coverage outside of his home country. He has been covered in some reliable published sources online as well. So this article can definitely be improved to include more reliable sources.

  1. The Hindu's news seems the daily published what the release team Darul Huda provided. So, its a fake self-claim of Darul Huda that they are a university. In India, such a seminary oriented college cant be university using any international seminary bodies.
  2. UGC might have prepared fake Universities List in India, according to the data they have given. This Darul Huda is not much a known nor considerable. So How UGS will find a local institution like this.MalayaliWoman (talk) 05:49, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@MalayaliWoman: None of this is positive evidence for your assertions which have added to multiple of the nominated articles as well as this discussion, in violaton of WP:V and arguably WP:BLP. Huon (talk) 11:16, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Huon: Welcome Sir, Can you explain what is the notability of these articles?MalayaliWoman (talk) 11:41, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't expressed an opinion on the notability of these articles and haven't evaluated that yet. Adding unsourced negative content to articles, however, is not appropriate even if the subject of the article indeed isn't notable. I'm going to revert the "diploma mill" part since you apparently cannot back up your claims. Huon (talk) 12:22, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Darul Huda Islamic University, redirect Bahauddeen Muhammed Nadwi and Thelitcham Monthly thereto, delete Darunnajath Islamic Complex and Malik Deenar Islamic Academy. Darul Huda has quite a bit of media coverage in national and international news. More coverage in non-English sources may well exist; I couldn't check those. Both Nadwi and the magazine are mentioned in the article on the university, with sources to back them up. Nadwi is something of a borderline case; there are plenty of passing mentions, and he seems involved in disputes among the local Muslim community, but at least in English there's no significant coverage of him. For the affiliated institutions I couldn't find any secondary sources at all, so the Darul Huda article cannot mention them and there would be no point to redirects. Huon (talk) 23:33, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I support the above suggestions. Mr. @Huon:. In addition, I request to change the name of Darul Huda Islamic University to Darul Huda, because the suffix will make confusion for students at the season of admission. The institution not providing general education, and even Islamic education for women. MalayaliWoman (talk) 03:30, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Mr, @Huon: Can you explain what was meant by the sentence “Darul Huda was upgraded to a university” that added by you to the article, Darul Huda and Why was removed the word “non accredited” from the preface.MalayaliWoman (talk) 13:10, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The Talk:Darul Huda Islamic University article's talk page is a better place for content discussions. I'll reply there. Huon (talk) 17:42, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I agreed, Let's finish the process. MalayaliWoman (talk) 17:57, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Why deleting the Bahauddeen Muhammed Nadwi and other articles related with the Darul Huda International University? I am a notable person in the Islamic World, and my Facebook page is verified (https://www.facebook.com/Dr.BahauddeenMuhammedNadwi/).

  • Can you explain why deleting these pages?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bahauddeen Muhammed (talkcontribs) 21:02, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi Bahauddeen Muhammed, people have tried to explain reasons for a deletion above. A simplified summary of our deletion guidelines can be found at WP:42. Some people would say that this is oversimplified, but the general message is very important. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:08, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Though the conflict of interest edits have been justifiably reverted, the current version's identification as a 'diploma mill' and similar references to lack of accreditation are also problematic. Looks like WP:OR to make a point. 2601:188:180:1481:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 21:54, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - while DHIU doesn't seem to be a degree-awarding university, it appears to provide a high school education, including "secondary" and "senior secondary", according to their website. High schools are generally presumed to be notable. Given the amount of international news mentioning DHIU, I would expect local sources (in Malayalam) to also cover DHIU to a significant degree. Huon (talk) 18:28, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fails WP:GNG delete all .Note DHIU does not follow the Kerala State Education Board or Central Board of Secondary Education or Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations the 3 main boards in Kerala but follows Islamic religious curriculum not sure if it is recognised school and hence it cannot be presumed to be notable .Neither is the University recognised.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 20:14, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Running one of many unaccredited south Asian private "universities" is not enough for WP:PROF, and we have inadequate sourcing for any other form of notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:53, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sonnenstein, Tyrol[edit]

Sonnenstein, Tyrol (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)

Can't find a single reference for Sonnenstein as the name of a mountain in Austria. There's no corresponding article in any other language to compare it to or check for references. The German article for Serles, the mountain it's supposedly related to (De:Serles), doesn't mention it at all (or even make reference to a supposed Trinity of Serles). The NGA GeoNames server doesn't list it, and it's quite comprehensive. There's just nothing to find that I can see. ♠PMC(talk) 11:58, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:GEOLAND. No shortage of book sources for mere existence, and some have information that goes beyond that,
    • Sight-seeing in Germany and the Tyrol in the Autumn of 1855, "In many cases the covering of wood is more extensive; and on some of the boldest and loftiest of mounstains, as on the Sonnenstein on the left bank, it reaches to their very summit in the most luxurious profusion."
    • Chambers's Journal, "...you soon find it girdled by huge mountains...the gigantic Traunstein, six thousand feet high on the south side, and Sonnenstein opposite." and later "From the huge forest-clad pinnacle of Sonnenstein, the plateau descends softly...in an egg-shaped promonatory...into the lake."
    • Catharine Merrill, Life and Letters, "Waldrest is on Mt. Sonnenstein, not on the top, but nearly half way up, and Sonnenstein is one of the highest mountains around Innsbruck. The giant Solstein, a grim, black, sullen monster, which frowns down on the very streets of the city, ..."

  • Merge to Serles. This appears to be one of the peaks of that mountain, per Pontificalibus, and possibly a name previously used for the whole mountain, per the sources found by Spinningspark, the most recent of which is dated 1934. Phil Bridger (talk) 10:31, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
