The subject of article lacks WP:NN. Being merely a Musical Artist doesn't prove his notability. The article does not cite any independent coverage in reliable sources. User:Donald j. Dk (talk) 05:03, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. In the first place, the article does already have a couple of sources, although they are currently listed under "External links" The concept of the star vehicle is certainly notable.

Keep I reworked the article to avoid the WP:COPYVIO and WP:NOTCV issues and to source appropriately. In particular, I added 7 reviews of 3 books, which I think is a fairly clear pass of WP:NAUTHOR. His citation record also looks like it's probably strong enough for WP:NPROF. I'd appreciate it if others could watchlist this article against coi editors (Slovenia is a small country, and while I've never had any interaction with Ellerman, I suppose it's likely that I eventually might).

Delete Apparently notability standards become irrelevant when exciting things happen in the news. Emhoff is not any more notable today than he was last week, when he was just another run-of-the-mill attorney married to a U.S. Senator. Per WP:CRYSTALBALL, he is not automatically notable because his wife might become Vice President. Is it that hard to wait until November? KidAd (talk) 18:29, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: if the article isn't kept, the outcome of this should be redirect, not delete — if she is elected VP, he will likely get a lot more coverage to the point of being notable and thus the content of the article shouldn't be hard to restore. DemonDays64 (talk) 18:51, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: We have a compelling list of might-be-VP spouses: John Zaccaro, Todd Palin, Anne Holton, Elizabeth Edwards, and what they all have in common appears to be that they had independent careers which became notable by virtue of their spouse's campaign. You have a couple of unnotable spouses, e.g, Paul Ryan, Lloyd Bentsen but these appear to be spouses with no independent career KevinCuddeback (talk) 20:03, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Why would we delete a well-written article that provides information to people who are seeking it? People want to know about all aspects of the life of the US vice-presidential Democratic Party nominee, so why would we delete an existing and well-sourced article on her husband? It's common sense to keep the article. The level of notability for this subject is potentially heightened considering the blurring of the political and personal in recent US elections (a development that exists even if we might bemoan it). Note that the article on Karen Pence was created on the day her spouse was announced as a VP nominee (July 15, 2016) and did not endure an AfD nomination. Surely we can have room for this article when we have articles on people and places with far less claim to notability. Moncrief (talk) 19:00, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It's called notability. This guy is not notable on his own. Therefore, it should be redirected to Kamala Harris.

Comment: Please sign your comments. I'm aware of what notability is. In terms of the level of public awareness and exposure, being the spouse of a major-party US vice-presidential nominee is notable. Minds can differ on whether that is true, but I certainly think it is; hence my vote. Moncrief (talk) 19:17, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. *Obviously* the news changes his notability. Just look at the number of reliable sources that have published articles about him in the last 48 hours. Notability isn't a reward Wikipedians hand out for achievements, it's a reflection of how he's viewed by independent, reliable sources. Independent reliable sources have published a bunch of articles about him, so they consider him notable, which means he is notable. [[[User:Binarybits|Binarybits]] (talk) 19:10, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect to Kamala Harris this guy is not notable on his own.-Splinemath (talk) 19:13, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I think we need a way to include perspectives of people outside ourselves. I suggest Google Trends, which shows that "Kamala Harris Husband" is roughly equal in searches to "Douglas Emhoff" [8] suggesting that people view him as independently namable and notable.KevinCuddeback (talk) 20:09, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep clearly meets notability with significant coverage in reliable sources such as major American news outlets.--Prisencolin (talk) 19:16, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep If John Zaccaro and Todd Palin have entries, Douglas Emhoff is every bit as notable, and will be scrutinized as a VP-Candidate Spouse for *exactly* the same reasons that John Zaccaro and Todd Palin were and ended up fully worthy of their entries KevinCuddeback (talk) 19:45, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. KidAd (talk) 22:11, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Douglas Emhoff easily fits the notability requirements for Wikipedia since he has "received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." See Wikipedia:Notability (people). These secondary sources cited in the article include newspapers, magazines, and news websites.Ungathering (talk) 02:57, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I'm not convinced that this nomination is entirely neutral, as it was conveniently nominated the day after his wife was chosen as VP pick for one of the candidates for president; before there was time for the (inevitable) forthcoming coverage on Emhoff. Nevertheless, he in fact does meet notability criteria due to sigcov in multiple reliable sources. Meets GNG and BASIC. Netherzone (talk) 20:19, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Clearly notable now his wife is running as VP. This is Paul (talk) 21:15, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for all of the reasons listed above. And because I came here to find out more about him! And why is the AfD given as "Frank Underwood" on the page? I fixed it. --WiseWoman (talk) 22:33, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The "Frank Underwood" in the article was simple vandalism. Thanks for fixing it. TJRC (talk) 22:52, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There's a great deal of public interest in the man who is married to a candidate for Vice-President of the United States of America. I and others are coming here to find out more about him. The suggestion for deletion seems like political trolling, which is against Wikipedia rules. --BraverWoman (talk) 22:33, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Keep. ≈ Ebraver99 (talk) 23:02, 12 August 2020 (UTC).[reply]
Keep There is enough coverage of him in reliable sources to meet WP:GNG. Edwardx (talk) 23:54, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect as per previous consensus, and not much has changed since, other than Emhoff is now the spouse of a candidate for a position. I'm not seeing any compelling arguments on the Keep side here, from a strong presence of WP:OTHERSTUFF, 'I came here to find this' (which isn't an argument against deletion in any sense), assuming bad faith and assuming notability due to coverage over the last 24 hours, which can definitely fall to WP:RECENTISM. Emhoff's notability seems to be inherited from his wife being the presumptive VP candidate - I feel like it's a case that we need to wait til November to see if he becomes the Second Lady (or whatever the official term is) until we can recreate this page, as per WP:CRYSTALBALL given his notability entirely hinges on a future event, otherwise he's just another unnotable Senate Spouse. ser! (let's discuss it). 00:04, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Karen Pence (Mrs. Mike Pence) was an elementary school teacher, but she has had a Wikipedia article since 15 July 2016 (about 4 months before the November 2016 election that elected Mike Pence Vice President). What's good for the gander is good for the goose. Mksword (talk) 00:27, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: (again) — a lot of these arguments contradict WP:INVALIDBIO; a person is not notable solely because of their relationship to a notable person. He needs to have significant coverage distinguishing him as notable. DemonDays64 (talk) 00:33, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:INVALIDBIO says that a relationship doesn't confer notability "unless significant coverage can be found" on the subject. There's already been numerous profiles of him written published in reliable sources since Kamala was chosen and we can expect plenty more in the coming months. Binarybits (talk) 02:44, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep He is the spouse of the democratic vice presidential nominee and could potentially be the 1st second gentleman in US history. This page is notable enough. Within 24 hours, his wikipedia page has received 100,000 views alone. Yeungkahchun (talk) 01:09, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This seems a no brainer. Even if there wasn't sufficient coverage now, wait 48 hours and there will be so what's the point? PAVA11 (talk) 02:34, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- Douglas may become the first Second Gentleman of the United States. While the page has a great amount of room for expansion, it should not be deleted. PickleG13 (talk) 02:52, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep Why would you delete this? He has received significant news coverage and clearly meets WP:GNG. I-82-I | TALK 02:57, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I've found approximately two potential sources. One is an article by Pocket Gamer that looks to be heavily based on a press release. I'd consider it usable, but it's not the strongest source since it gives off such strong PR vibes. The second is evidence of a review by FilmCritic.com on Rotten Tomatoes. AFAIK, this seems to have been run by AMC, but the website is long since gone and I don't see where AMC archived the reviews, so I can't really verify much of anything about it. It looks like the Wayback Machine has the site archived, but I'm honestly not going to go through umpteen pages to try to find a review that may or may not have been archived. Even with that, it's one article and a review. I'm not certain if that's really enough to make this a firm enough keep for me. I think that this should be mentioned in the director's article (which could use some editing for the massive PR fluff tone such as "The comic book inspired picture went on to become a small cult classic and is now shown as part of curriculum at many of the world's best film schools"), as I think that's a decent alternate option.

Non-notable band! GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 17:07, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Great band name. Unfortunately though I think they are not notable. Google results are the usual trash sources, the Allmusic page is blank, no evidence of notability aside from one of the members being a member of Boredoms which is a notable band. (Google results) It has no article on other Wikipedias. The article has been sitting here since 2007 without any sources. That problem could've been fixed if reliable sources would be available but unfortunately, no reliable sources are available. Not notable on its own but the title could stay as a redirect to Boredoms. I can't speak or read Japanese so I don't know if there are reliable sources in that language.

Delete Carl, Comment on Friedrich Wilhelm. Carl's page cites ROUTINE obituary coverage and 3 genealogical directories. These do not establish notability per NOTINHERITED and INVALIDBIO. Friedrich Wilhelm's English page has 1 genealogy book and two self-published sources by decidedly non-expert bloggers. His German page is better, but the vast majority of its length is astonishingly excessive detail on company holdings and production parameters. It has 1 genealogy source; an economic newspaper cited 4 times that ran a series of press releases on "nobility as entrepreneurs"; the website of Beaumont Timber (which returns zero results for "Friedrich"); an article in the "Logging and Sawmilling Journal" about Beaumont Timber that also doesn't mention him; an entry in the "Home Yearbook of the Neuwied District" about Manrepos Castle; a detailed article on Neuwied Castle Park flood protection in a parks and rec-type website that only mentions "Prinzes zu Wied" in general (the only specific prince mentioned is Prinz Friedrich zu Wied (1872-1945)); an article about his death in the "County Homeland Yearbook" cited 3 times; and two obituaries released by Rhein-Zeitung on the same day.

Weak keep. Hmmmm … I can see why this has been in CAT:NN for 11 years. On the one hand, he was interviewed on ABC News (by their "pop" division; this was not breaking news). On the other hand, he is introduced in the video and in the caption as the brother of Jonathan Jackson. That's a consistent pattern in all the coverage I can turn up on him—he's an also-ran to his much more famous brother. Of course, notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. But he's definitely mentioned alongside his brother, and has some independent treatment. He also apparently has a column in Modern Drummer, which I'd consider the "magazine of record" for American drummers. Which shows that he's considered important by a publication that ought to know. I think role in widely watched teen comedy + somewhat noteworthy drumming is enough to pass the threshold, but it's really borderline. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 04:30, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Wallachia#History. That the topic is notable is not in dispute. Consensus is that the content in the article is inferior in scope and reliable sourcing to what exists in the redirect target, and that a reader is better served by reading the existing section in the Wallachia article than an article which largely fails WP:V. There is no reason our editors can not re-build this article, probably preferably from scratch. I would recommend building in sandbox until such time as the new article is larger in scope than the History section, replete with reliable sources, but this last is a personal opinion. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)} 13:16, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No. I am extremely surprised that such a dispute is taking place at all. The article about the area sketches in sections the history of the geographical area. This article is about the history of the political community, which undoubtedly existed from the late Middle Ages to the formation of Romania. This article does not deal at all and cannot affect, for example, prehistory in the field. The situation is similar with the article in English about Moldova. Moldova is a neighboring political community, but too often at war with Wallachia, and methodologically the history of Moldova is not analogous to that of Wallachia. An extensive article on the history of Moldova in English was created and in 2012 it was merged and is now a bulam. But there is such an article in Romanian and Turkish. However, this is not the case with the history of Transylvania. Transylvania entered Romania only 56 years later than Wallachia and Moldavia, but there is no longer a dispute. This is a double standard. Anyone who wishes is free to improve and supplement the article, but not to delete it by merging it, because the latter is outright censorship.

If there's no sources which speak about history of Wallachia this fact should be discussed first on talk page because there are sources in the article and there are probably some other sources which exist. I came across some sources which mention Wallachia and how much they talked about history I cannot say now because I do not remember but I know that Wallachia and some events from history was mentioned. Mikola22 (talk) 14:59, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect: per nom. I admit when I saw the title of the AfD my gut reaction was "Are you kidding me?" given Wallachia's prominence and history. But the length and breadth of the Wallachia#History section is extensive (considerably more so than this one), outstanding, and probably would make B-class at least as a standalone article. This content fork is superfluous and not necessary, and I'm frankly somewhat baffled at the opposition. Have they looked at Wallachia#History? Beyond that, they haven't advanced any legitimate reason to prevent a redirect, beyond WP:ILIKEIT. Ravenswing 17:13, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Contra. This is an autonomous region from the late Middle Ages to modern times. Accordingly, the history of this area is a separate topic and should not be scattered in other articles such as the history of Romania or in the article presenting and explaining what this area is. 213.149.159.237 (talk) 20:42, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: As, it happens, it would not be: the proposed redirect target IS the Wallachia article. Ravenswing 23:56, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The exact opposite is reasonable and correct. Part of the content of Wallachia # History to supplement this article. 213.149.159.237 (talk) 16:07, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge or redirect to Wallachia#History Sadkσ (talk is cheap) 17:01, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Yes. There is a consensus on the merger. The question, or rather the dispute, is whether the content Wallachia#History should come in this separate article (which is right, reasonable and normal) or whether to erase the history of the autonomous region from the 15th-19th centuries. 213.149.159.237 (talk) 11:24, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reply: Nonsense. There is more historical content in the Wallachia#History section than in this fork, and a redirect would "erase" nothing beyond some knee-jerk nationalist competition defined by how many separate articles there are saying the exact same things. Ravenswing 04:51, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral: Wallachia has a history dating back to 1330. Romania did not have a history before 1859. So there is an article on the history of Romania (a century and a half) outside the presentation of Romania in the main article, and Wallachia with an independent history within 6 centuries - no. There is no weight and logic to the proposal. Bodinski2 (talk) 20:04, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm really, really baffled here. Let me phrase this as simply as I can: no one is proposing a redirect to Romanian articles. Wallachia already has an article. We are proposing redirecting this to that article. There is no weight or logic to your opposition. Ravenswing 20:38, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Wallachia#History. Nobody is saying that the history of Wallachia is non-notable, what they are saying is that the article is not beneficial and the topic is already covered (and covered better, I should add) in the mentioned section. We could discuss a split from that article to this one, but that's for another day, and what can be instituted in the interim is a redirect. The article as it stands is poorly sourced, and doesn't contain great writing either. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 20:13, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Archibald Murray Campbell[edit]

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

Does not appear to meet WP:GNG - the claim to notability is that he was the head of some local organisations? One of a number of articles created by a WP:COI editor about his family members, this appears to be a historical/genealogical biography entry rather than encyclopedic. Melcous (talk) 13:48, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I've checked the first two citations, and some of the claims made in the lede are not supported by the citations. I've not bothered to check the rest of the article yet, but it would not be surprising if there are other exaggerations, as this seems to be an editing pattern of the article creator. Netherzone (talk) 14:36, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

comment response @Netherzone:, He's taken this to Special:Diff/972949471 Article Rescue Squadron without being upfront about COI... again. He also participated in this AfD without coming forward about COI, until it was pointed out, despite having been consulted by other editors in the recent past. Graywalls (talk) 06:31, 16 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Netherzone, well, if refs 1 and 2 aren't adequate for the claims made there, I'm sorry to say the rest of them aren't adequate either. Ref 3 does confirm that he died at Mt Vernon but it doesn't do anything to prove notability. Ref 4 is from Findagrave which isn't a reliable source, so the whole of the 'Marriage and children' section is unsourced, and it does nothing for notability either even if sources can be found. Ref 5 states that Bank of Mt Vernon was sold, dated Dec. 24, with Archibald M. Campbell among the listed purchasers. It does not confirm he became president, nor that there was a Trust Co., nor that he was president for 21 years. The brief mention is not proof of notability. Ref 6 merely notes that there was a move in Congress to amend the Bank Merger Act and that Mount Vernon Trust Co. was among a list of banks with mergers approved on Dec. 29, 1950. This does not show notability either. It seems that Campbell was a medical worthy in Mt Vernon but this sorry sourcing (of someone's ancestor?), probably all that can be found, doesn't make him notable. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:14, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Below is basic criteria of Dr. Archibald M. Campbell's notability:

WP:BASIC Significant coverage in multiple published newspapers including:

Mayor-elect Edward F. Brush announced the oppointment of Dr. Archibald M. Campbell, the richest physician of the city, to be President of the health board.
As a 19th century doctor, Campbell wrote an article in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology about how kumyss was used to treat gastrointestinal disorders.^[1]^[2]
Pominent physician and surgeon in Westchester County, first President of the Mount Vernon Trust Company.
Noted County Surgeon, Trustee of the East Chester Savings Bank in Mount Vernon.
President of the medical board and consulting physician and surgeon to the Mount Vernon Hospital.
From 1903-1907 he was president of the Mount Vernon Board of Health.
He was first President of the Siwanoy County Club in Bronxville.
Campbell gifted $250,000 for a new hospital wing at the Mount Vernon Hospital.
Rev. Charles K. Gilbert dedicated a large sanctuary window at the Trinity Episcopal Church in memory of Dr. Campbell.
Dr. Campbell was a celebrated physician, churchman, and financier.
Dr. Campbell's medical diploma is from the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York. COI editor: --Greg Henderson (talk) 16:50, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Greghenderson2006, it has been told to you multiple times by other editors that you should disclose yourself as a COI editor when you participate in an AfD discussion on an article which you have a COI. Graywalls (talk) 15:52, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reply Graywalls, Yes, I may have a COI as Dr. Archibald M. Campbell is related to my wife. He was her great-grandfather. We never knew him, but heard about him as being a notable doctor in New York. I decided to do some research on his life and found some interesting noteworthy primary and secondary sources. --Greg Henderson (talk) 16:05, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I can't understand why this individual is notable. Yes, he was esteemed and venerated in his community, but there are millions of upstanding citizens, past and present, who don't have a Wikipedia article. The New York Times obituary is pretty good but similarly not every person who has a decent obituary is notable. I don't think that the number of sources really counts in this case as there is little relevant content in them. To quote WP:BASIC, "trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability". Curiocurio (talk) 21:12, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Curiocurio, please see Campell's Talk page , which has some new citations, most notable are Request Edit E - G; i.e., Dr. Campbell wrote on Kumyss in the treatment of Cholera in the American Journal of Obstetrics.--Greg Henderson (talk) 21:41, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I read those request edits before making my comments. I just don't see what he had done that could be considered significant enough to warrant an article. There's more to notability than totaling up sources, quality is what counts. The achievements have to be remarkable or noteworthy in some way, not solely being a good person. Curiocurio (talk) 22:11, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good, then you will see that there is significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, independent of the subject, that support WP:BASIC requirements i.e., Picture of Dr. Campbell and the unvelling of a memorial window; and An honor given to Dr. Archibald M. Campbell for 50 years of service; and Noted County Surgeon, Trustee of the East Chester Savings Bank in Mount Vernon. Not to mention, he was president of the Mount Vernon bank, first president of a Golf Club and a celebrated physician, churchman, and financier. If this is not notable, then I don't understand the definition (worthy of attention or notice, of particular interest, worthy of mention, worth taking a look at, remarkable). --Greg Henderson (talk) 22:39, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Sorry to disappoint, but the article on Kumyss (published by another doctor) cites a case where Dr. Campbell treated a child with fermented horse milk as a cure for cholera. This had no lasting impact on cholera treatment whatsoever; it is not a notable "discovery" that significantly changed the course of modern medicine. Things like the mayor-elect appointing the richest doctor in the area to a board seems like politics as usual, nothing about it distinguishes the tens of thousands of other wealthy people who have rubbed shoulders with politicians. Same with his son donating a window to a church in his honor. People with money do those things because they can; it's called self-aggrandizement. I'm not seeing anything remarkable: he was born, got a degree to practice medicine, had a lot of money, was mentioned in a published paper, got involved with finance and the country club and died. Then his son donated a window. These things may seem remarkable or important to you because he is related to your family which can cloud one's POV. I'm still looking through the citations, and will hold off !voting for now. Netherzone (talk) 18:34, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I checked through all of the sourcing in the article, and the requested edit sources, and have concluded that there is nothing to substantiate this individual’s notability. There is no depth of coverage. He was a local doctor and local financier, and probably a very nice person. However, there is nothing to validate that he was particularly notable in any of these areas; nothing remarkable or significant. As a doctor, he lived during a time of major medical break-throughs, yet his only contribution was to administer fermented horse milk to children with cholera during a time when multiple treatments for cholera existed such as the invention of cholera vaccines, antibiotic treatment, intravenous fluids, electrolyte replenishment, etc. Yes, he was a wealthy, “rich physician” and he succeeded in his business ventures, but they were local news and nothing out of the ordinary, especially for the time period. Fails: WP:GNG, WP: ANYBIO, WP:ACADEMIC, WP:RSMED. Here’s an analysis of the sources:

Article sources:

Equivalent to Who’s Who. Too old to be a valid medical reliable source –– See WP:AGEMATTERS and WP:MEDDATE
Trivial - One sentence mention: “the richest physician” in Mount Vernon, NY
Obit – this is the only potential RS, and is not enough to establish notability. It does establish that he lived, practiced medicine, made financial investments, and was a well-liked person. But it is no different than the tens perhaps hundreds of thousands of other obits out there. The flowery language is typical of the time period.
Trivial - One sentence mention that he and a group of men bought the Bank of Mt. Vernon.
Does not mention him.

Requested edit sources:

A. Family Search (an unreliable user-submitted deprecated source)
B. Same obit as item 3
C1. Trivial - Local paper – social congratulations; C2. Trivial mentions he’s a member of the Mt. Vernon NY Medical Society C3. Trivial article about crowing roosters and barking dogs at night and mentions that he apparently disapproved of it.
D. Trivial - Is about his son posthumously donating a window to a church in his honor.
E. Trivial - His church gave him a tribute because he went to the same church for 61 years.
F1. Article by another local Mt. Vernon physician with a trivial mention that he treated a child with fermented horse milk as a treatment for cholera. There was absolutely no lasting impact of this treatment and it is not considered a valid medical achievement, nor is it a cure for cholera. F2. same as F1. F3. self-authored five-page synopsis of his use of fermented horse milk to try to cure cholera (primary source). F4. & F5. same thing. This is an irrelevant marginal idea and treatment. Also see WP:AGEMATTERS and WP:MEDDATE and WP:RSMED and WP:MEDINDY
G. Local obit; obit from organization he was a member of; death notice in college alumni newsletter. Netherzone (talk) 23:05, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Netherzone Thanks for your review. I appreciate the time you took to review my article. I believe the Dr. Campbell article is well written and includes primary and secondary citations. If you compare the article with these: Flossie Cohen, Nate Mack, Arthur Gillette, and Anu Prestonia, based on the same categories, you will see that Archibald Murray Campbell is far more WP:BASIC, WP:GNG, and WP:RS. I have a WP:COI with this article, but an advocate for WP:WPBIO. --Greg Henderson (talk) 03:48, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Cygnet Theatre, Exeter[edit]

Struggling to find enough coverage of this tiny drama company / theatre school / theatre. Have looked at the British Newspaper Archive as well as through Google, as if there is coverage I think it will be in local papers or The Stage.

Agnetha Åsheim[edit]

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

In line with the deletion decisions at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kjersti Bø and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Maximilian Pupp, this is another retired Norwegian skier who competed in the World Cup of Skiing but never finished very high or attracted much attention.

Skiing doesn't have an SNG to use as a rough guide to notability, so we have to go by WP:GNG, per WP:SPORTCRIT. I have done a reasonably thorough BEFORE search (for an English speaker), and I have found no in-depth sources about the subject. There were only routine interviews/fluff pieces in the local paper ITromsø, and listings on sports statistics pages. As she has been retired for over ten years after a very brief career, it is unlikely that any further in-depth sources will emerge. Per SPORTCRIT, Trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources...is not sufficient to establish notability; we cannot maintain this article on the basis of stat pages. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 02:12, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, while the WP:BEFORE was respectable enough for an English speaker, it can by no means cover the relevant sources. I added multiple non-trivial in-depth third-party sources to the article, often about Åsheim and her teammate as a sporting duo. "Fluff piece" and "routine" are of course tendentious terms seeing as she actually won something (hence the degree of "fluff"), and the sporting championships were held "routinely". So now there's both prolific World Cup competitions as well as newspaper backing in the mix. Geschichte (talk) 07:38, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Geschichte, presumably those ITromsø articles you added were accessed online; perhaps you could include URLs so other editors can access and review them? ♠PMC♠ (talk) 10:50, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Most articles found via the search engine http://nb.no/search can't be accessed by non-Norwegian IPs, but luckily, Tromsø can! Geschichte (talk) 17:21, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Geschichte, thanks for adding the URLs. The thing is though, having a bunch of sources in the local paper (and ITromsø is only a municipal-level paper, with a circulation of less than 10,000 copies) isn't sufficient to support a claim of notability on an encyclopedic level, for a couple of reasons. First, WP:N requires topics to have gained "significant attention by the world at large"; coverage in a local paper doesn't pass that bar. The single Nordlys source has a better scope, but it's still only regional, and without the URL there's no way to evaluate the article's depth or content. Second, under WP:SIGCOV, "multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability;" that is, all those ITromsø articles are generally considered to be one source, not several. So basically there's routine hometown coverage, and one regional-level source about her receiving a local sports award. In my opinion it doesn't meet the requirements of WP:N. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:29, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There are tons of articles in Nordlys. I will try to add them in the very near future. Geschichte (talk) 15:08, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. Consensus is narrow, but clear. The subject does not meet the higher standard of sourcing required to support notability of corporate entities, and there is no appetite for refactoring this into an article on the purpose. As the article has been moved out of process, the move was obviously potentially controversial, it is considered null for purposes of AfD closure. No prejudice against restoring to a draft under the title of the person for submission through the AfC process. BD2412 T 00:34, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that the time span (2014-2020) of those sources and their reputability establishes the subject's notability. The two design prizes won by the subject are further indicators of notability. --Brookford (talk) 07:19, 20 July 2020 (UTC) EDIT: I removed the subject's own website as an in-line reference. --Brookford (talk) 07:23, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There has been some debate in the past at AfD on topics which are companies, but which rely entirely on one or two well-respected people in their fields. The issue is that most of the sources provide in-depth information on the individual(s) but not the company - which is the topic of this article. I'm of the opinion that the founder may very well meet the guidelines for notability but based on WP:NCORP, there must be references that deal with the company. I am unable to locate any significant coverage with in-depth information on the company and containing independent content, references to date fail the criteria for establishing notability, topic therefore fails GNG/WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 21:38, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@HighKing: well the sources seem pretty split on Avandi/Ariane van Dievoet, with an edge towards Avandi I'd say. Also Avandi seems to be the professional name of the designer in addition to just being a company name. --Brookford (talk) 22:29, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non notable --Devokewater @ 17:54, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and rename to Ariane van Dievoet. I reframed the article to be about the company's founder. There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources in the article such as these three articles to allow Ariane van Dievoet to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.
Cunard (talk) 10:46, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure about the procedural aspects of this, but all of the discussions are about the topic and I think that that is what the AFD discussion would be about and certainly what it has been about. IMO an article about a different topic is best made & handled separately. North8000 (talk) 11:20, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I see no significant coverage as defined by WP:BASIC and WP:GNG.

Comment - Does not seem to be notable. Allmusic is not reliable when the page is just a track listing. Encyclopedia Metallum is not a RS in any way. The French and Spanish language sites look like blogs to me so I doubt their notability (the fact that I don't speak either French or Spanish is insufficient now as they write about the album - I can understand that). Other than these the same unreliable sites like Discogs, RateYourMusic, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Spotify, etc etc etc came up. Mortician is a notable band but this album isn't. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Mortician (band) – I'm not convinced that the sources found by Superastig above are significant enough to bring this above the WP:NALBUM bar. The Sepulchral Voice source appears to be only a couple sentences long, and while the Core and Co source appears to have a few paragraphs, the author of the article is unattributed, and overall I'm a little skeptical of the reliability of the source. It doesn't look like there are any better sources here, and especially since this is a live compilation album, rather than a studio production, for a relatively obscure band, it is unsurprising to me that it may not be notable.

The Phantom's cave is covered in detail in sources such as The Phantom Comics and the New Left: A Socialist Superhero and The Phantom Unmasked: America's First Superhero.

All of the mentions are in passing while the author makes another point. Isn't it possible the nominator did do a BEFORE search, and found the available sources insufficient?

Keep, while the reason people care about him is that he is Karl's father, we have sources about him and publications from Heinrich that show some notability. By all means get rid of most of the "Literature" section (copied from the German Wikipedia, where such uncommented lists of possibly relevant texts are commonplace). But I'd rather suggest to trim the content about his father in the Karl Marx article and send people here instead of merging anything into that already very long article. —Kusma (t·c) 20:43, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It would be interesting to read some of the articles by Heinz Monz [de] mentioned in this bibliography that appear to focus on the elder Marx, for example " Die rechtsethischen und rechtspolitischen Anschauungen des Heinrich Marx" mentioned here. We even have a detailed list of the books in Heinrich Marx' library: p. 128, to mention another example of material about Heinrich, not Karl. —Kusma (t·c) 20:52, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If I understand correctly, Heinz Monz, was writing about the collection of books/literature that Heinrich possessed right? @Kusma: Or were the books/literature the works of Heinrich? - hako9 (talk) 23:31, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hako9,Heinz Monz has written several articles about Heinrich Marx, for example one about his legal ethics and legal politics. He has also listed the books that Heinrich Marx owned, and an annotated version of that list is in an article by Manfred Schöncke that I linked to above. Overall, together with interest in the semi-forced conversion of Heinrich Marx to Christianity, I think there is well enough to write a decent article (WP:V), and material by sufficiently many people to pass WP:N. —Kusma (t·c) 09:08, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That seals the deal for a keep, atleast for me. The fact that multiple authors at the time (pre-internet era), have written about his life in sufficient detail, should establish notability individually. - hako9 (talk) 19:28, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I understand that notability is not inherited but there is sufficient content here to warrant a standalone article. Also, when the main article gets too verbose, we usually WP:SPLIT the content anyways. If we look at this article as an article about Karl's relationship with his father as a standalone article, which can't be merged to Karl Marx's article because it's too large, we can argue for a keep. Also, the section about his life cites a book (by Allan Megill) whose subject although is Karl, but it also focusses on Heinrich and his life too. In the "after conversion" section notable historian Isaiah Berlin writes about Heinrich in particular too, although again, the subject of the book is Karl. Also, the works section cannot be discounted/disregarded. Not having access to/or not having read the works doesn't mean they aren't notable works. - hako9 (talk) 23:31, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I think this argument from hako9 - "If we look at this article as an article about Karl's relationship with his father as a standalone article..." - has substantial merit to consider. Thanks hako9. // Timothy :: talk 00:28, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- "Not inherited" is an important principle for WP, but it is not applied in the case of the most notable people. With Karl Marx among the most significant people of the period, members of his close family may also be notable. I accept that the article is in fact largely about the background and upbringing of Karl Marx. We often have articles on relatives of American presidents, for example.

Keep I didn't know anything about this company before, and did not have an established position about this AfD until doing some research. I had a deeper look at the reliability of the sources, since the criteria for organizations (WP:ORGCRIT) has "a stronger emphasis on quality of the sources to prevent gaming of the rules by marketing and public relations professionals".

The sources included in this article, plus a few more I found, mostly seem to be African sources, which were unfamiliar to me. So I tried to gauge the reliability of each one and this is what I found, mainly following WP:NEWSORG:

Sources that appear to be reliable:

BioTherm Energy wins 251MW renewable energy projects in South Africa (2015): A trade magazine with published editorial standards.
BioTherm Energy secures 20 MW solar project in Ghana (2016): Article in trade magazine with a named author and contact information.
Seven innovative companies meeting Africa’s renewable energy needs: Article with named author in a publication that has a named editorial team.
SOUTH AFRICA: MIGA grants $116 million in guarantees for 4 renewable projects (2020): Article with named author. Background of the author and description of the editorial team is provided.

The acquisition of the company by Actis Capital was covered by a few reliable sources such as:

Denham Capital sells renewables IPP BioTherm Energy
After Garden City carport, firms to power Abuja mall with solar

Sources that appear to be reliable, but with weaker evidence:

Four new renewable energy projects in South Africa receive support from MIGA (2020): Very recent article in trade magazine. Author is named, but full name or contact information is not provided.
BioTherm reaches financial close on four renewables projects (2018): Article in trade magazine. Author is not named, but editor is.
BioTherm flush for African wind (2018): Short article. No named author, but named editorial team.

Less reliable sources or content:

BioTherm Energy Pty Ltd: Bloomberg profile, but might be trivial.
BIOTHERM ENERGY: This appears to be re-publishing a corporate press release from Biotherm.
Four new renewable energy projects in South Africa received MIGA support (2020): Recent article, but could not ascertain the reliability of the source.

I believe this meets the multiple sources criteria (I read WP:3REFS for further guidance) for signicant coverage.

Additionally, WP:ORGSIG states that: "When evaluating the notability of organizations or products, please consider whether they have had any significant or demonstrable effects on culture, society, entertainment, athletics, economies, history, literature, science, or education." I believe the effectos Biotherm's projects in the economies of the and power infrastructure of the African countries where it works can be demonstrated by their size. Furthermore, the company has obtained support from international financial institutions such as the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency.

Finally, Biotherm's previous CEO, Jasandra Nyker, received awards for her work at the helm of the company, such as this one, and more recently this one. She was also invited to participate in discussion panels organized by the World Economic Forum, such as "South Africa 2017 - Electrifying All of Africa", and Bloomberg Philanthropies, "Business Opportunity: 2016 U.S.-Africa Business Forum". This was in her capacity as Biotherm's CEO at the time. (This is to ensure parsing by the AfD stats bot. My iVote is Keep ) Alan Islas (talk) 15:46, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment You've put a lot of work into establishing whether the sources are "reliable" or not but appear to ignore WP:NCORP guidelines on "Independent Content" in WP:ORGIND. Announcements and PR (i.e. most of the references you've mentioned) fail the criteria for establishing notability. The others appear to use company-provided stock descriptions with no in-depth analysis or independent observations. HighKing⁺⁺ 13:40, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks HighKing for pointing that out. I see that even though those publications and authors appear to be independent from the company, the policy does warn about trade publications. However, after that initial search I've come across this BBC News story about BioTherm, which I believe constitutes an independent source providing significant coverage of the subject.

After reading the material concerning this discussion and the related AfD for BioTherm's former CEO Jasandra Nyker, I'm forming a picture in my mind that this company (and that person) are notable in the field or topic of African renewable energy industry, which may be suffering for a lack of overall wider coverage. I have no expertise in this area to be more certain, but I can see parallels with subjects closer to my background which would be notable in their own fields, but receive almost zero attention outside specialized, niche publications. So I don't know if it's possible that BioTherm is actually an important renewable energy company in Africa, but still fails to meet the notability criteria, due to the nature of that field and WP rules. Then on the other hand they did get some attention from the BBC.

Anyway, I'm still trying to learn about Wikipedia policies, their spirit, and how to apply them in specific cases. Cheers, Alan Islas (talk) 06:04, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Alan Islas: I think you may be confusing Wikipedia:Notability with Wikipedia:Importance (as in, while notable and important may be synonyms in everyday English, they are not on Wikipedia; what is important in real life is not necessarily notable on Wikipedia). See also WP:ITSIMPORTANT and WP:ITSNOTABLE. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:24, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've looked at the BBC video. My opinion is that is fails WP:ORGIND because it relies exclusively on information provided by the company and their executives. It's a coup for the company, for sure, to have their profile boosted on TV. But listen to who provides all the facts and information about the company ... it is always a company executive or information provided by the company and parrotted by the presenter. There is no independent opinion or analysis provided by someone not affiliated with the company. As such, this references fails WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND. HighKing⁺⁺ 12:24, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks HighKing for your detailed analysis of that source, I see what you are saying.

I think you are right Piotrus, I'm probably confusing notability with importance. I did try to argue based on WP guidelines, hence my attempts to analyze and provide sources. But I also acknowledge that in the back of my mind I'm envisioning those huge wind and solar farms, arm-thick wires carrying power for miles and miles across different African countries, and what this involves in millions of watts and millions of dollars, and the realities of concrete, labor, engineering, technology, user benefits, policy, etc. So yes, when I compare the work of BioTherm I think it's more important than, say, secondary TV actors, old videogames in obsolete consoles, random pornstars, obscure in-universe characters, etc, which are deemed notable and have WP articles without controversy. I realize this shows my personal biases, but I'm actually quite happy to accept policy and consensus and I'm glad I've had my say (and some more!) during this process. Thanks!

Weak keep as a publicly listed company that, in December 2000, was the focus of an article about high expectations related to its listing by the Helsingin Sanomat: [15].

Redirect to Secure_Shell#History_and_development, where the company is mentioned in a historical context. I agree that the company probably does not rise to the level of GNG notability.

Comment Northamerica1000, forgive me if i misunderstand, but i seem to disagree with what you say as you relist: In my argument for deletion, the nomination, i made no reference to the sources, the entirety of the argument is that there is nothing in the text of the article which implies that the subject meets WP:GNG or the other guidelines i mention. In other words, WP:NEXIST isn't relevant, because the subject isn't notable, regardless of the sources in the article (or elsewhere). Please explain, if i have not understood what you mean, or possibly rethink your comment? Thanks; happy days, Lindsay^Hello 15:53, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi LindsayH: You stated that it's "not clear" whether or not the subject meets notability guidelines, which could imply that it's not clear from the sources presented in the article, versus stating directly that source searches did not provide additional evidence. It appears that you based the rest of the nomination upon the "listed" award, that being the award listed in the "Awards and nominations" section of the article, stating that it's "probably not currently enough". Overall, basing notability upon a "not clear" and "probably" basis is not the same as directly stating that the subject is non-notable, you did not indicate whether or not you performed additional source searches, and it's not clear if you searched to see if the subject has received other awards or not, simply potentially basing the nomination upon what is in the article's awards section.

You stated in your comment above that there is nothing "in the text" of the article suggesting notability, but General notability (WP:GNG) is not based upon suggestions from prose within Wikipedia articles. Notability based upon WP:SNGs can be potentially ascertained from content in articles, such as, for example, if a person has competed in the Olympics (WP:NOLY), which provides presumed notability. Rather, General notability is based upon whether or not the subject has received significant coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources. Since you have further explained your stance, I have struck part of my relisting comment and added in new information in parentheses (diff). However, one delete !vote is soleley based upon sourcing the article, so I have not struck it all. Regarding the delete !vote following the relist, I cited a Wikipedia guideline page, whereas WP:AADD is part of an WP:ESSAY, and essays are not guidelines, having not been thoroughly vetted by the community.

Barring any serious BLP issues, instantly seeking deletion to a page without any reasonable time to let editors improve and grow an article is seldom helpful and is frequently a case of WP:BITE.

Weak keep. It's obvious that recent political events were the trigger for the article creation, but just as NOTINHERITED means that he does not become notable merely for having a more-notable daughter (and ex-wife, and other daughter), it also means that he does not become non-notable merely for having a more-notable daughter. The article's notability should stand or fall on its own merits. I found and added to the article 11 published reviews of his most well-cited work, the book Capital Accumulation and Income Distribution. He also has several other less-significant books on the Jamaican economy but I did find a couple of newspaper articles mentioning them years after their publication, so they're not completely forgotten. I think there's a borderline case for both WP:PROF and WP:AUTHOR.

I really wish this were notable, but I don't think it is. There's this (name drop), this (another name drop), this (basically a name drop; certainly not critical commentary) and a single article in the Hartford Courant from 1984 called "Dusting Off Encyclopedia After 95 Years", which is a nice story about its republication in the '80s but doesn't get it to pass WP:NBOOK on its own. Just don't think there's the coverage here (although I don't have access to that many historical newspapers, which is where I'd expect the coverage to be if it does exist).

The Holiday 100 is a chart published 5 weeks a year by Billboard and has been in existence for less than 10 years.

Saeid Eslamian[edit]

The article no reliable references, only links to irrelevant websites. The person does not meet notability criteria at all and is using Wikipedia for promotion. The name of the person is only mentioned in one of the references, which is his university homepage (you could write anything your homepage, so it's not a reliable reference). For biographies of living persons multiple secondary reliable sources are needed. Much of this article is original research. I came across this article after receiving an email from a predatory publication. They included a link to this article as an advertisement. This is clearly for promotion purposes. There are tens of thousands of academics with similar qualifications than this person, but I am afraid none of them meet the notability requirements. I even checked the person's papers before nominating the article for deletion: mostly mediocre or predatory publications. Thanks, Pirehelo (talk) 07:36, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Unwellcomed tags can be removed David. Be bold. On Khazar hypothesis of Ashkenazi ancestry#Elhaik et al., studies I discovered some sources about the Elhaik's work.

- Whether his work in genetics mirrors old theories based in racism is irrelevant. Whether it is scientifically valid, only coincidentally prefigured by the racists, and attacked by people who don't like to be told that their origin myths are inaccurate, or whether it pure crankery motivated in racism itself, is also not very relevant to this discussion (although of course it is relevant to how we frame his work in the article).

Strong keep, esp. per David Eppstein's outline of the issues. He has a very strong index for scholarly productivity (See the google scholar citational index linked at the bottom of his page), regardless of the specific controversy (poorly represented on Wikipedia, since his thought has evidently, as one would expect from a scientist, grown more nuanced as new research alters perspectives). One should be particularly wary of claims of non-notability being pushed when the work of the subject in question has been greeted in some quarters by politicized mockery and amateurish journalism by people unqualified to judge extremely complex technical papers.

Issues with the article may be resolved by setting standards for removing red links, requiring notability (such as limiting the list to the demonstrably most common surnames, or surnames connected to notable people, or some combination of these limitations), and perhaps requiring a source for every name to be included on the list.

List of surnames in Ukraine[edit]

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

The article has stood for over 10 years without having its notability challenged. It is essentially an indiscriminate directory-style list of Ukrainian surnames and I'm guessing its intention is to be an exhaustive list of every surname in Ukraine. I feel it fails WP:LISTN and WP:GNG but I'm open to being proved wrong. Spiderone 16:06, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is not possible to create an exhaustive list of every surname in Ukraine. Unlike e. g. Chinese or Korean surnames, Ukrainian surnames may have any length and may be created from nearly any word using a loose set of rules. Is it possible to create an exhaustive list of surnames that are used in the UK or USA?
Moreover, it is not clear what surnames are considered to be "in Ukraine". For example, there is a sizeable ethnic minority of Koreans in Ukraine. Should the surnames of these Koreans also be included in the list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A31A:A044:5D80:AE0F:41F1:400C:691D (talk) 18:46, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It should be renamed to List of Ukrainian-language surnames to give a clear and appropriate scope that matches the category. postdlf (talk) 20:43, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The renaming would not be appropriate since the article's intention is to be an exhaustive list of all surnames that exist in Ukraine rather than a list of surnames that originate from the Ukrainian language. Spiderone 21:02, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as index of articles per WP:LISTPURP and per WP:CLN as complement to Category:Ukrainian-language surnames, which includes 421 surname articles. postdlf (talk) 20:40, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My deletion rationale is best summarised in this section of policy, which states "As Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a directory, repository of links, or means of promotion, and should not contain indiscriminate lists, only certain types of lists should be exhaustive. Criteria for inclusion should factor in encyclopedic and topical relevance, not just verifiable existence. For example, all known species within a taxonomic family are relevant enough to include in a list of them, but List of Norwegian musicians would not be encyclopedically useful if it indiscriminately included every garage band mentioned in a local Norwegian newspaper." This article violates that because it is an indiscriminate list of every Serbian given name and is largely unverifiable. Spiderone 21:00, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And the solution to that is to make it discriminate and verifiable by limiting it to only those with articles (just as we’d just remove the non notable garage bands in the example you quote). Are you unfamiliar with that common editing practice for lists, or the fact that we do not delete content for fixable issues? Your comment above that it would be inappropriate to fix it honestly doesn’t make any sense; we’re never prevented from improving content by someone’s prior intent. And policy requires that such alternatives to deletion are considered. postdlf (talk) 21:55, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have considered the alternative of just keeping the blue link surnames but then I still don't see how the list would be encyclopaedic; it would still be just a directory list of surnames that are considered to be Ukrainian. Spiderone 10:31, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Because it would index our articles by what they are. That's enough, because "Wikipedia functions as an index or directory of its own content." postdlf (talk) 14:18, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think being encyclopaedic and verifiable should take priority over any of this alleged usefulness Spiderone 14:40, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's what limiting the entries to articles only would accomplish, as was already said. If they are not verifiable as Ukrainian surnames, they also should not be categorized as such or listed, and the remedy for that is to remove incorrect entries. Certainly some names are verifiable, and presently the category includes well over 400. I honestly don't understand your underlying argument; assuming you actually understand how lists of articles work or that AFD is WP:NOTCLEANUP (and you've demonstrated awareness of neither). Are you are claiming that whether a surname is Ukrainian or Serbian or Russian is inherently unverifiable? I don't think that's plausible, but regardless that's a much bigger discussion because we have an entire category structure based around that, Category:Surnames by language, indicating that many editors believe otherwise. You've instead started four identical nominations separately, which is honestly an obnoxious way to proceed because the same discussions are proceeding on each one at the same time with the same arguments copied and pasted. If you're not going to withdraw to do a group nomination (as you should have done in the first place), then you should add links to each of the AFDs pending so the discussions are connected. You couldn't even keep straight which of your own nominations you're posting in, as you've referred to "Serbian" above and in other non-Serbian nominations. postdlf (talk) 14:54, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise for the typo but the clarity in meaning was still there. Please see the top of the article. As you can see, previous consensus does suggest that these articles do not belong in Wikipedia. If consensus is now to keep this article, then it will represent a change in consensus on these types of articles. I'm hoping a few more Wikipedians get involved and we'll see which way the consensus goes. Spiderone 12:08, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Those AFDs are all 13 or 14 years old now, and some were kept, such as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of common Chinese surnames which you did not link for some reason. Category:Surnames by language has existed since 2007. So there is clearly a current and widespread practice of classifying names by language. You've not addressed why we shouldn't do it in lists when it is done in categories; it is the same practice either way. postdlf (talk) 15:23, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, I don't necessarily agree that categories for surnames/given names by language should be kept either but that's a different discussion for a different day and is not an argument to keep these articles even if we do, for argument's sake, get consensus that the categories should be kept.

Delete CLN applies when the list can provide something beyond mere alphabetized links.

And per appropriate topics for lists, we have "Lists that are too general or too broad in scope have little value, unless they are split into sections. For example, a list of brand names would be far too long to be of value." and "Some Wikipedians feel that some topics are unsuitable by virtue of the nature of the topic. Following the policy spelled out in What Wikipedia is not, they feel that some topics are trivial, non-encyclopedic, or not related to human knowledge. If you create a list like the "list of shades of colors of apple sauce", be prepared to explain why you feel this list contributes to the state of human knowledge." This article covers a topic that is too large, unverifiable and, most importantly, has no place in an encyclopaedia. Also see WP:ITSUSEFUL which is basically what your argument is.

The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone lists, which says, "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list." I will show below that "Ukrainian surnames" has been treated as a "a group or set by independent reliable sources".

  Analysis of the Sample of Last Names
  After normalization process of the last names, statistics were collected by the most common names. Based on these statistics, a list of last names with a frequency of use of more than 0.3% of the total number of last names (from 6,100 times) was formed. Table 1 provides examples of the most commonly used last names with a frequency of more than 0.8% (for transliteration into the Latin script was used BGN/PCGN Romanization in the 1965 edition). The female version of the last name is given through a slash.
  The table is captioned "Table 1. The most common Ukrainian last names."
  The last names listed are Mel'nyk, Shevchenko, Boyko, Kovalenko, Bondarenko, Tkachenko, Koval'chuk, Kravchenko, Ivanov/Ivanova, Oliynyk, Koval', Shevchuk, Polishchuk, Tkachuk, Bondar, Marchenko, Lysenko, Moroz, Savchenko, Rudenko, Petrenko, and many other names.

The list is not indiscriminate.

Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information says Wikipedia articles should not be: "Summary-only descriptions of works", "Lyrics databases", "Excessive listings of statistics", and "Exhaustive logs of software updates". This article is none of these, so it is not indiscriminate.

The list might never be complete, which is fine.
It is fine for the list never to be complete per Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists#Incomplete lists:
Because of Wikipedia's role as an almanac and a gazetteer as well as an encyclopedia, it contains a large number of lists. Some lists, such as the list of U.S. state birds, are typically complete and unlikely to change for a long time. Some lists, however, cannot be considered complete, or even representative of the class of items being listed; such lists should be immediately preceded by the {{Expand list}} template, or one of the topic-specific variations that can be found at Category:Hatnote templates for lists. Other lists, such as List of numbers, may never be fully complete, or may require constant updates to remain current – these are known as "dynamic lists", and should be preceded by the {{Dynamic list}} template.

Response to Cunard - I'm not suggesting that Ukrainian surnames are not a notable topic and, indeed, some of those references that you have found could be used in the article Ukrainian surnames; I am simply arguing that an exhaustive list of every single surname possessed by a Ukrainian is unencyclopaedic and shouldn't be on Wikipedia.

Keep LISTN is clearly met, as would be the case with a list of names of any country. INDISCRIMINATE and NOTDIR are not really applicable when LISTN is met.

My deletion rationale is best summarised in this section of policy, which states "As Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a directory, repository of links, or means of promotion, and should not contain indiscriminate lists, only certain types of lists should be exhaustive. Criteria for inclusion should factor in encyclopedic and topical relevance, not just verifiable existence. For example, all known species within a taxonomic family are relevant enough to include in a list of them, but List of Norwegian musicians would not be encyclopedically useful if it indiscriminately included every garage band mentioned in a local Norwegian newspaper." This article violates that because it is an indiscriminate list of every Serbian given name and is largely unverifiable. Spiderone 21:00, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete CLN applies when the list can provide something beyond mere alphabetized links. This article does not, and should not be kept unless demonstrated to provide something better than being a context-free directory.

And per appropriate topics for lists, we have "Lists that are too general or too broad in scope have little value, unless they are split into sections. For example, a list of brand names would be far too long to be of value." and "Some Wikipedians feel that some topics are unsuitable by virtue of the nature of the topic. Following the policy spelled out in What Wikipedia is not, they feel that some topics are trivial, non-encyclopedic, or not related to human knowledge. If you create a list like the "list of shades of colors of apple sauce", be prepared to explain why you feel this list contributes to the state of human knowledge." This article covers a topic that is too large, unverifiable and, most importantly, has no place in an encyclopaedia. The fact that this list contains surnames like Akhmedov and Aslanov is part of the issue as well as it's pretty much a list of any surnames that feature in Russia and so the list is basically indiscriminate.

The result was no consensus. After the longest reasonably possible time for discussion, there is nothing near a consensus here, nor any trend towards developing one. Editors on both sides present interpretations of ambiguously-worded policies that are not outside the bounds of reason. The resolution, I would suggest, lies in developing some substantial requirements for inclusion. For example, as has been suggested in the discussion, removing all red links, establishing a standard of notability (such as limiting the list to the demonstrably most common surnames, or surnames connected to notable people, or some combination of these limitations), and perhaps requiring a source for every name to be included on the list.

Keep per the significant coverage in reliable sources.
The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone lists, which says, "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list." I will show below that "Georgian surnames" has been treated as a "a group or set by independent reliable sources".

  5.19 Georgian Surnames
  The Georgian surnames have an extremely old history. They clearly demonstrate a subethic origin. In the provinces of western Georgia, surnames tend to end in "dze", Megrelian surnames end in "ia," "ua," and "ava"; Svanian surnames end in "ani." The same surname ending prevails in Lechkhumi. In Kartli-Kakheti and Meskheti-Javakheti, the most common surname ending is "shvili." There are a few surnames ending in "dze." In eastern Georgian mountainous areas, surnames usually end in "uri" and "dze," but there are exceptions. The Georgian surnames are widely distributed among the non-Georgian population in Georgia. Jews, Kists, a part of Abkhazians, and Ossetians carry Georgian surnames. Among the most widespread Georgian surnames are Beridze, Kapanadze, Gelashvili, Maisuradze, Giorgadze, Kvaratskhelia, Lomidze, Tsiklauri, Shengelia, and Khutsishvili.

  The article notes on page 10: "In exploring of the role of name shift (change in surnames) in the construction of identity, it is important to begin by noting that Georgian surnames originating in the southwest of the Republic of Georgia usually end with –ia, -ava, -dze, –shvili, or -eli; for example: Svanidze, Papaladze, Chakhalidze, or Sulkhanishvili, Gogolashvili, Jakeli."

  The book notes: "Most surnames of Georgians proper (i.e. not Mingrelians or Svans) end in -švili child or -je son (earlier heir). Surnames of the first type are stressed on the first vowel of the ending, as though this were an independent word (e.g. q'arq'arašvíli, čubinašvíli). Those of the second type carry stress on the penultimate syllable (e.g. šaníje, ševardnáje)."

The list is not indiscriminate.

Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information says Wikipedia articles should not be: "Summary-only descriptions of works", "Lyrics databases", "Excessive listings of statistics", and "Exhaustive logs of software updates". This article is none of these, so it is not indiscriminate.

The list might never be complete, which is fine.
It is fine for the list never to be complete per Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists#Incomplete lists:
Because of Wikipedia's role as an almanac and a gazetteer as well as an encyclopedia, it contains a large number of lists. Some lists, such as the list of U.S. state birds, are typically complete and unlikely to change for a long time. Some lists, however, cannot be considered complete, or even representative of the class of items being listed; such lists should be immediately preceded by the {{Expand list}} template, or one of the topic-specific variations that can be found at Category:Hatnote templates for lists. Other lists, such as List of numbers, may never be fully complete, or may require constant updates to remain current – these are known as "dynamic lists", and should be preceded by the {{Dynamic list}} template.

Response to Cunard - I'm not suggesting that Georgian surnames are not a notable topic and, indeed, some of those references that you have found could be used in the article Georgian name; I am simply arguing that an exhaustive list of every single surname possessed by a Georgian is unencyclopaedic and shouldn't be on Wikipedia.

Keep At the suggestion of NA1000 and Barkeep49, I took a look at the sources from the last AfD. I am using the standards from WP:GNG to decide if Schwager is notable and the sources fulfil that criteria.

Both this link [26] and this link [27] are reviews of his books from Publishers Weekly, so I grouped them together. These sources are significant coverage of the author's book, reliable (although the reviews don't have the author listed, the magazine has Review Editors listed in their about us section) and independent. Link 4 in the first AfD is the same url as link 1. This link [28] is also significant coverage of the author's book, is reliable (there is an author listed and a masthead on both the Seattlepi and blogcritics.org website where the review was originally located) and independent.

I also searched for more sources. [29] recommends reading Schwager's book, while NYT also did a review on his book [30] I also found this book review from JSTOR: [www.jstor.org/stable/24586267]. The Encyclopedia.com citation [31] is not a WP:RS but the site contains a list of sources that we can use in our article (although a lot of them are behind a paywall).

I failed to find any profiles or sources about the author. However, I think Schwager fulfils WP:AUTHOR C3 because his work has been the subject of multiple reviews and C1 because numerous articles quote his work when they profiling a person interviewed for Schwager's book or quote peers in his field who recommend reading his book.

Delete - non-notable per WP:BIO. Of the three refs that were on the article before the nominator removed them: the first ref was available on archive.org, here, which does cite the "Rosas Farm" (note, not Al Rosas himself) as "one of the top small businesses in the United States" - but this is only a passing mention of the person - imo, not enough for an article. The second ref was also on archive.org, here - this is a press release, so not good enough for proving notability of either the company (which is what the press release is about), nor the person. The third ref is already a link to archive.org - but none of the versions of that ref on archive.org actually appear to work, so I can't read it. I can't find any other reliable sources elsewhere for Al Rosas. In the future, there may possibly be enough sources for the company, but almost definitely not for Al Rosas himself.

The article notes:
They belong to Al and Erin Rosas, champions of a small group of organic ranchers with a sense of evangelism and an unabashed taste for grass-fed meat as much as for artisan farming.
...
Al has branded himself the "Organic Chef" but he and Erin and other contemporary growers no longer see abstaining from fertilizers, pesticides and hormones as their most salable competitive edge.
...
The Rosases were surprised and disappointed about the state of food when they moved to Florida 20 years ago. Erin had grown up on a farm south of Lake Superior and had been around cattle, hay and race horses all her life. "Everything we ate was fresh," she says. Al, who had been transferred from Milwaukee, was a corporate chef, and he too was dismayed.
After a year in Tampa they bought the farm north of Ocala, raised hay for horses and have been selling grass-fed and artisan livestock and dairy to chefs in North and Central Florida ever since.
They are the perfect poster couple to make the pitch, photogenic 40-somethings who homeschool their children, love to barter, brag on the health benefits of a natural lifestyle and dub themselves the hippies on the hill. They are also city-slick enough to have been Arthur Murray dance instructors and martial arts competitors.
Al was named culinary entrepreneur of the year in the Cordon d'Or ceremony in St. Petersburg in January. Erin has been Stonyfield Yogurt's Woman of the Year and Rosas Farms has just been named a finalist in the national Small Business of the Year competition.

The most "boaring" day of my life? That's easy: the afternoon I spent at Rosas Farms feasting on a wild boar extravaganza created by chef Al Rosas. We were served larb, a Laotian/Thai dish made with ground meat, mint, cilantro, lime, and hot peppers; South American pupusas, or stuffed pancakes; and mofongo, a version from Colombia, Rosas's heritage, with fried pork and yucca instead of the usual plantains. We topped many dishes with his aji, a piquant red sauce found on tables across South America.
...
"Chef Al," 45, and Erin Rosas, 44, his wife and business partner, have owned this 100-acre spread, a former thoroughbred horse farm that had been in Erin's family, since 1989. Over the years the couple has turned the business into an all-organic livestock farm, as well as a tourist and corporate retreat.
The couple met in their home state of Wisconsin in 1985, when Erin took a job as a waitress where Al was the chef. "I gained 40 pounds the first year we dated," she said with a laugh. They left the farm in 1993, when Al worked as a traveling corporate food and beverage director.

Delete. per WP:SIRS, series of coverage in same paper or by the same journalist counts as one.. and in my opinion, the above source analysis shouldn't just be skimmed through. One of the source says "With some 600 restaurants in the area, that’s a heck of a lot of phone calls to make to find out which restaurants will be open Christmas day. But you can help! If your restaurant is planning to be open, or you know of one that will be, please let me know so I can share the news with everyone else. I’m planning to run the list of any places I know of that will be open in my Dec. 17 column in Go. So I need to know no later than Dec. 14 at noon (local time, not Timbuktu Standard). Contact me at". A coverage that is initiated by the business itself does not constitute a secondary source. I am thinking some of the source gathering and report generation is automated and does not consider the context. Graywalls (talk) 11:22, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I've already !voted (delete) above, but since then, the article has been updated with a few more references. In light of this (as my arguments from my earlier comment seem to have been made somewhat redundant now), I went through these refs with this tool to try and see how good they are for establishing notability. What I think following this is that all of these refs are questionable regarding "in-depth coverage": all of them seem to talk in equal parts about Al Rosas, and his wife, and their farm "Rosas Farm". Therefore, I don't believe they are in-depth enough about Al in particular (as this article, and deletion discussion, is about Al in particular). In all these refs, Al seems to be given the same amount and depth of coverage as his wife and their farm - therefore, they're all questionable in establishing notability for Al Rosas, and so my earlier comment that Al Rosas isn't notable per WP:BIO still stands even with the updated article; just with a slightly different reasoning.

Galerie Zlotowski[edit]

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

This is a bit tricky. My main gripe with this article is that is misrepresents the significance of the gallery by overstating "representation". The first artist listed in the section that is introduced by "Artists who are represented or shown by the gallery include, among others:" is Jean Arp. Now, the Tauber-Arp estate which holds the copyright of Jean Arp and Sophie Tauber-Arp is represented by Hauser & Wirth. (That IS a big deal, mostly because Tauber-Arp's work is so undervalued) And while you probably can buy an Arp at Zlotowski (http://www.galeriezlotowski.fr/fr/artists/jean-arp/), they don't represent his estate. Same for Louise Bourgeois (also H&W), Sol LeWitt (Pace) etc. Notability of a gallery is not established by what the gallery sells, but by how much coverage it has received in independent, reliable sources, and one of the most important aspect of a gallery's operations is its relationships with the artists; if it is a gallery that operates on the "primary market" it helps to build artist's careers and creates a market for the work. This gallery operates in the "secondary market"; it has not relationship with the artists at all, and sells work for which a market already exists. And of course, even for galleries that operate on the secondary market, the GNG still applies, but I see only one source that provides significant coverage: https://daily.artnewspaper.fr/articles/avant-premiere-robert-michel-et-ella-bergmann-michel-en-vedette-a-art-basel. http://www.galeriezlotowski.fr/events/presse/ has a list, but I don't see WP:SIGCOV there either.

H. Candace Gorman[edit]

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

WP:NOTINHERITED and WP:NOSALESMEN

The article is a WP:PROMO article and should be deleted per WP:NOTINHERITED and WP:NOSALESMEN. Subject does not meet notability test. I found trivial mentions of work in news searches, google searches, JSTOR, and others.

Working on high-profile litigation is not itself notable, especially when hundreds of attorneys can work on a case and perform minor supporting roles. For instance, just one nonprofit worked with at least 600 attorneys on Gitmo litigation as of 2008, but merely appearing on a legal team for a notable case does not meet notability guidelines. Many lawyers work on high-profile cases; Wikipedia does not list hundreds of thousands of lawyers merely because of that.

Additionally, fails WP:NOSALESMEN parts 4 and 5. Contributions are primarily a personal resume: the article consists solely of her relative's name, the names of her former clients, and her work filing an unsuccessful FOIA lawsuit. The only exception -- the article's statement that "Gorman and fellow habeas corpus attorney Anant Raut were two of the first people to dispute the Bush administration's charge that approximately 30 former Guantanamo detainees had returned to the battlefield, a claim later substantiated by researchers at Seton Hall Law School" -- is unsourced; the cited source (number 3) does not mention Mr. Raut's and Ms. Gorman's supposed stance. Moreover, it is not clear why disputing a Bush Administration stance (something half of Americans, if not more, did) is notable.

The article focuses on what her clients have done or been accused of, not what she has done, with the exception of an apparently losing effort to sue the government once (something hundreds of thousands of attorneys have done). Signing on to be part of a legal team is itself not notable. Yipee8f93k (talk) 14:26, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Anyone searching for evidence of notability will find more searching for "Candace Gorman" than searching for "H Candace Gorman", e.g. this in-depth profile of her in Chicago Tribune. I will do some searching, and I suspect more than enough coverage will be found for GnG. HouseOfChange (talk) 16:24, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Thank you -- I will note that the Guantanamo litigation discussion was removed from the Wikipedia article after an extensive discussion from 2008 and 2009, around the time of the Tribune article mentioned. The Trib article itself focuses mainly on the activities of her clients; the most notable aspect, perhaps, is the fact that she dropped all paying work and devoted herself to pro bono Gitmo work. Certainly people devote themselves to charity in all lines of work every day; I doubt that is notable. As it pertains to Gorman, the article focuses on procedural aspects of case (getting a security clearance, flying to Cuba, how to permissibly read classified material, and talking with her client), things any lawyer involved in Gitmo would have to go through. Most of the article is devoted to her father's or other family member's previous work and activities, accusations against her clients, or what the U.S. government did in the Global War on Terror.

Keep A distinguished civil rights attorney whose career has been covered in multiple RS including two in-depth articles 1) lots of biographical detail and info about her Guantanamo work and 2) focuses on her central role in uncovering secret "street files" Chicago Police withheld from defendants. Lots of RS talked about her work with Guantanamo defendants, which is featured in Ron Suskind's 2013 book The Way of the World, although I agree it's poorly supported in existing article. A third piece of her work that got lots of RS coverage including WSJ and AP was a class-action discrimination suit that she ended up arguing in the Supreme Court.

Update WP:HEY I have improved and expanded the article from the situation where it was originally AfDed. The two in-depth Chicago Tribune articles (2009 and 2016, by two different reporters) I mentioned above are WP:SIGCOV: discussing Gorman and her work "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." Her first big civil rights case, which she took to the Supreme Court, was covered in the NYT and WSJ. Her Guantanamo work got some wide coverage and was featured in a book by Ron Suskind. Her more recent work exposing the secret files of Chicago Police got featured in the CNN tv show Death Row Stories. Getty Images sells a photo of her with the street files. I think the "street files" story deserves its own Wikipedia article, but for a start I hope people who look at this article as it stands now can see that Gorman clearly meets WP:BASIC: "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." HouseOfChange (talk) 01:56, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete while being in-depth, the two Chicago Tribune articles only count as a single source according to the notability guidelines. Unfortunately everything else doesn't seem to cut it either. So, there's technically only a single source that can be used for notability. That said, if someone can find another in-depth reliable secondary source I'd be willing to change my vote. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:57, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adamant1: A third in-depth source would be the book by Ron Suskind, you can read some of what it says about her in the last third of this published excerpt. Others thought the coverage substantial enough that Observer reviewer listed her as one of Suskind's "archetypes of our time." A fourth would be Northern Express. And I just found a fifth in depth, a book review with a lot about Gorman. But per WP:BASIC, "multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" and the coverage of Gorman's work in the 30+ RS cited in the article is far from trivial. HouseOfChange (talk) 22:08, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's all well and good. Except your miss quoting the Observing article to make it seem way more glorifying of her then it is. Not that it would matter, because notability isn't based on an author being overly fawning about someone anyway, but even less if it's being miss quoted. what it does say is "He presents the archetypes of our time." As in, every damn person he talks about in his book is an archetype of our time. So by your logic we should have articles about all of then I guess. That aside though, the article only name drops her after that. There's zero indication that she's a major player in the book from the article and she's sure as hell not a major player in the article itself. Which is the important thing if your going to use it as a claim of notability. Whatever WP:BASIC says, it doesn't mean you can take 50 random name drops, put them together, and call it notability. Otherwise, all we would have to do is find someone's name in a few phone books. "Hey it's basic, but it's multiple sources...So..." Seriously. Not to mention it's semi disingenuous to use a book that mentions someone as a source to show they are notable and then to also use an article about that book as way to prove they are notable. A book review doesn't show a character in the book is notable. It shows the book is notable. That's it. So go create an article about the book and add a brief mention of her to it. I'd be fine with that. I'm not going to comment on your other sources, because they are just more of the same. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:34, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adamant1 The brief mention in an Observer review is NOT evidence of notability, and I did not present it as evidence of notability. I mentioned 4 independent sources that talk about CG in depth, let me make it clearer what those four are:

1) 2009 article in Chicago Tribune titled "Gorman vs Goliath," about her Guantanamo work.^[3] You agreed this is in-depth coverage of Gorman, including many biographical details.
2) 2016 article in Chicago Tribune by a different reporter, writing 7 years later about different work by Gorman.^[4] You agreed this was also in-depth" but claimed it was essentially the same as #1 above. This second article never mentions "Guantanamo," the first article never mentions Chicago police or "street files." No sensible policy would call these two the same.
3) 2008 book by Ron Suskind has in-depth coverage of Gorman.^[5] That link goes to an excerpt from the book, but even the excerpt talks about her in depth. You can search for "Candace" and "Gorman" yourself with Google books, it's there in preview mode. I mentioned the Observer review only to support Gorman's presence in Suskind's book. She is not a "source" behind Suskind's book; she and her adventures are part of the story he tells.
4) A book review, published in the Chicago Bar Association Record, of a book authored by multiple Guantanamo lawyers. This 4-page book review also talks in depth about Gorman and her experiences.^[6]

Due to in-depth coverage in multiple sources, I think Candace Gorman is Wikipedia-notable. But I am asking David Eppstein for his advice, because he knows more about policy than I do. HouseOfChange (talk) 02:10, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete since this seems to lack multiple in-depth reviews about it. Unfortunately, the supposed reviews that Atlantic306 linked to seem to be about another movie, Zombie Lake. Which isn't this one.

Keep. It's mentioned in several books (one of which is a fairly extensive writeup in an academic press) and while the company is now defunct, it received a review from Scott Weinberg from FEARnet. The site doesn't exist any longer, but RT has preserved at least a snippet of the review. FEARnet was/is considered to be a reliable source for reviews as they definitely had editorial oversight and Weinberg was never shy at expressing criticism when it was due. It's kind of like Tor.com in how it reviewed things. (RIP FEARnet) In any case, there's enough to establish notability for this movie.

Street dogs in Chennai[edit]

This article appears to be a 2014 WP:CONTENTFORK from Blue Cross of India, which is the only other article that links to this one. The vast majority of this article is a close paraphrase of a single op-ed (which is non-RS) posted in The Hindu Times [37] and is possibly even a WP:COPYVIO, and that content is mostly about Blue Cross of India and is also covered in their article. I have already ~~merged~~ put the relevant generic parts about stray dogs into Street dog#India. Normal Op (talk) 17:24, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- @Andrew Davidson: You have misunderstood the meaning of the word "merge" as I used it above. I will clarify. I meant that anything of value from Street dogs in Chennai has been added to Street dogs#India (by me); the rest of Street dogs in Chennai is already in Blue Cross of India (verified by me), so very little if any "merging" (as we know it in Wikipedia) is needed, therefore what is left of Street dogs in Chennai can be deleted, especially since only one article points to it (Blue Cross of India), obviating any need for a continuing redirect. Read Talk:Street dogs in Chennai#Needs organization for earlier discussion about this article. Normal Op (talk) 15:19, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    - Facepalm OMG, there's a technical definition of merge and a colloquial (common usage) meaning.

Andrew, with the terminology sorted out, what is your position now, please? William Harristalk 10:29, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My position is unchanged. The title "street dogs in Chennai" is quite clear and helpful when searching for information about this issue. The title "Blue Cross of India" is not so helpful because you have to be already familiar with this organisation and its title to understand its relevance. Deletion of the street dog title, turning it into a red link would therefore be unhelpful to our readership and so should not be done. Deletion of the page's edit history would likewise be unhelpful to people wanting to follow the history of our coverage. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:38, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. If you have visited or lived in India then you will know that every Zilla Parishad, Palli, village and township has its collection of street dogs, many of which are infirm, some of which have their vulva's hanging out and the list could go on. Chennai is no different to Bengaluru, Hosket, Kodaikanal, Old Delhi, Simla, Jaipur, Lucknow, and places like this. The OpEd referred to above fairly much forms the substance of paraphrasing for this article. Article really has no notability. Cows, and what corporations are doing for cows, yes. Street dogs, no.

Comment - While the article itself is a miasmatic quagmire of bare URL's, book-link-spam and disorganization, I checked some of the bare links embedded in the article, and he seems he may in fact meet notability requirements, with coverage in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, CSNBC, Slate, Detroit Metro Times, an interview in The Nation (ok, a primary source, but a reliable venue). I am definitely leaning towards keep after viewing the sourcing (esp. in the way of bare URLs in the text). It needs to be seriously cleaned up, but that is not a valid reason for deletion.

No evidence that this was a community. Durham says there was a post office called Schmidtville two miles from Stege from 1900 to 1901 but as we've seen multiple times, a post office is not certain evidence of a community.

~~Keep~~ Weak Keep because Schmidtville had a post office. There are differing opinions about post offices and notability. In my opinion, the post office satisfies #1 of WP:GEOLAND. 9 trivial articles in newspapers.com searching for "Schmidtville Contra Costa", here are the better ones: "farmers of Schmidtville," runaway bride married at Schmidtville - mentions George W. Schmidt, postmaster and owner of a "large part of Schmidtville", building lots available at Schmidtville, article (really an advertisement) for Schmidt's Village, picnic held by socialists at Schmidtville. Schmidtville is not listed in the current list of Richmond Neighborhood Councils. I did not check Google Books. If it weren't for the post office, I'd go with delete as the coverage is fairly trivial. Cxbrx (talk) 15:55, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect/merge to El Cerrito, California. There was an extremely small community with this name once and it was merged into El Cerrito when that was incorporated. From [39]: "Rust was one of several villages to grow up in what is now El Cerrito, which at various times also included the settlements of Gallagher, Stege, Stege Junction, Gills, McAvoys, Schmidtville, and others. Many of these settlements were nothing more than a railroad stop and a handful of houses and most of these names have long since fallen out of use." Trying to write an article on the basis of very brief passing mentions in newspapers, which the current article tries to do, will quickly run foul of WP:NOR. Unless there's something more substantial out there it's not much more than a footnote in the history of El Cerrito, and I suggest we mention it briefly in the history section of that article, along with the other settlements it swallowed up.

Merge with ThinkPad#Industrial_design, per Adamant1. This feature can easily be described in that section, and it would go well with the rest of the content. I don't see how a stand-alont ThinkShutter article could be expanded significantly. Alan Islas (talk) 14:27, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment If it is merged with ThinkPad#Industrial_design, it should be in its own subsection so as to redirect properly. A generic page or a section in Webcam would still be missing. 217.162.74.13 (talk) 20:14, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This is a marketing name (like a "retina"), not a patented technology. Maybe we have a rule for marketing names, like screen characteristics or ordinary non-patented "inventions"? ThisIsNotABetter (talk) 04:40, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The article does not seem to really have any content other then listing what you might expect at a Fine Arts and Communication collage. I can't seem to find any sources warranting a stand-alone article. Darth Flappy ^«Talk» 22:16, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to Towson University. Since it seems to be a division of that university, but isn't notable enough for it's own article. Merging it is a perfectly fine option though. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:27, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This was brought into GNIS from a Forest Service map, but the topos show nothing in particular in the area; nor do aerials. Searching only turns up the other Fort Jones in Siskiyou County, which is also the only mentioned by Gudde. Mangoe (talk) 00:56, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
