This is a 2016 group effort societal essay, and fundamentally and fatally WP:NOR. There are no broad secondary source sources for the topic. It is a term, a WP:NEOLOGISM that does not yet have traction at Wiktionary.

If an article can be written under this title, WP:TNT applies. It has taken the wrong path from the first edit, compiling information from disparate sources.

It does not belong in mainspace as an article. It could be moved to draftspace, on the understanding that it will not be returned, but instead to have sources removed for addition to other articles. SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:53, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The topic of the article seems like it is notable, not sure about the name tho.★Trekker (talk) 00:16, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • The title is tied to the scope. There is no source that is simply about the scope as defined. It can't be re-scoped, it is too old and way too far down the path of collecting overly narrow and primary sources. If you think it can be fixed by re-titling, see Talk:Sexual racism#Requested move 12 August 2020, but see all the other talk page posts too. The best explanation for the failure is Wikipedia:NEOLOGISM. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:28, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment This topic is, I expect, related to racial fetishism. pburka (talk) 01:21, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Also note that there appears to be quite a bit of scholarly discussion of this topic, e.g. "Is Sexual Racism Really Racism?" (Callander et al. 2015), "Sexual Racism: A Legacy of Slavery" (1994), "EXECUTING US SOLDIERS IN ENGLAND, WORLD WAR II: Command Influence and Sexual Racism" (Lilly & Thomson, 1997, "Sexual Racism: Intimacy as a Matter of Justice" (Bedi, 2015). These are just from the first page of Google Scholar hits. pburka (talk) 16:09, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • These are all WP:Primary studies that don't count towards GNG. And they also well illustrate that this is a neologism with no coherent scope. The first and fourth sources are about people's choices of partners (with the fourth explicitly coining the term independently), the second is about societal views of interracial relationships, and the third is about racism in military capital punishment out of fear of cross-sex cross-racial socializing. Crossroads -talk- 19:28, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • These are all WP:Primary studies that don't count towards GNG - please link to the guideline that says, for non-medical topics, a peer reviewed journal article on a subject doesn't count towards GNG. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 20:19, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • From WP:GNG: "Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. Crossroads -talk- 20:58, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
            • You misunderstood what is primary and what is secondary. Primary are stuff like research notes, witness testimonies, interviews, etc. Research published on the basis of such works is secondary. And summarizing such secondary sources in an encyclopedia is tetriary. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:15, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
              • No, it is not the case that every published paper is a secondary source, with their "research notes" being primary sources. Research papers are primary sources for the outcome of their research, and secondary sources are review articles or books reviewing the literature. Per WP:PSTS: a scientific paper documenting a new experiment conducted by the author is a primary source on the outcome of that experiment. And: a review article that analyzes research papers in a field is a secondary source for the research. It also states that sources can be both primary and secondary sources, depending on the content within the source, while saying in a footnote, research articles tend to be more useful as primary sources and review articles as secondary sources. Something like this is a primary source for its author's philosophizing, and this is a primary source reporting the results of a social science experiment. This source's nature regarding the term is unclear; it could be an independent coining. I suppose this has some secondary aspects, but in any case, it is really about interracial marriage and does not demonsrate that this is a separate topic. Crossroads -talk- 20:42, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I checked and found no WP:Secondary sources about this supposed topic like WP:GNG requires. And even if it were a valid topic, WP:TNT definitely applies here. This article is rotted through and through by WP:Synthesis. Crossroads -talk- 05:29, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: The article is focussed on the North American experience of racism and married the racism issue to sexual partner choices.

  • Keep. Scholar/Books clearly show that this is a notable term. And the article seems written well enough I don't see why WP:TNT is invoked. If it contains OR, please cite specific examples. A cursory overview suggests that while there may be small parts of the articles that are undercited, or even ORish, most of it seems to be summarizing scholarly works. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:14, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • User:Piotrus, yes, it attempts to summarize scholarly works, but it does it WP:SYNTH style, and none of the scholarly works are broad coverage of the topic. Can you address the WP:NEOLOGISM question? "Sexual racism" is a neologism, and not well defined, and not consistently defined. I read this article as taking the neologism, and then summarizing the work of every article that uses the term. In that sense, sources are being used as primary sources for the term, and worse, many of them do not even use the term, but are creatively woven into the body to support tangential points. No where is there a straightforward definition tied to a reliable source. An attempt to do this is made with the first source, but that source is clearly describing a neologism: "Discrimination between potential sexual or romantic partners on the basis of perceived racial identity has been referred to as “sexual racism.”" It goes on with "Today, “sexual racism” is popularly employed in media and research settings as shorthand for racial discrimination between sexual or romantic partners. There is contention, however, about whether this is an appropriate label ...", which clearly establishes that this is not an established term. Yes, there is something to this, but it is not for Wikipedia to lead the way in synthesizing what it is. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:47, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • In my experience, this is a common problem in social sciences - many works use a term without defining it well, or they use different definitions. Wikipedia articles have to combine such sources; and yes, there is a fine line between OR and proper synthesis here. As this article is cited, and not essay-ish, I think it meets our policies. And yes, there are some sentences in the article that can be discussed, revised and perhaps even removed, but again I don't see what merits a TNT approach here. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:10, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • I agree, I understand, on the a common problem with the social sciences, "topics" are fluid, what is said about the topic depends on the speaker, and the underlying message can be almost unrelated. Disagree that the essay is not "essay-ish", it most certainly is. It is student essay-ish. It meanders without logical structure. However, that is not really the problem so much as it devoting so much more space to tangential matters than to the central concept. Much more critical is that this article gets no mention from the parent article racism, and sexual doesn't lead to an article that mentions it either. What merits the TNT is that the foundation of the article is unsound. The presentation is rich in sources, but there is no foundation. If someone could find one or two good foundational sources, WP:GNG-meeting sources, they could re-write the article, possibly re-use some of the current sources, but it would need to be a fundamental rewrite. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:15, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep: Articles about concepts are often much harder to write than articles about persons, places or other more concrete things. Especially since concepts in the humanities are often quite subjective. The article is a little flimsy at places which calls for fixing, not for the article to be destroyed! I find over a 1,000 articles on Google Scholar for the term "sexual racism" so I don't buy that it would be a neologism. It's a real scholarly subject. ImTheIP (talk) 22:02, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. We need sources specifically about the topic. Not sources about other things cobbled together to create this topic. A decent article about the topic can perhaps be created in the future, but this one is not it. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 07:04, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Having looked at it, it seems to posit multiple definitions depending on the specific context. I don't see any foundation that is backed by peer reviewed research. It would suggest not having an article is a better approach at least until the subject is better defined. It would be nice to have some kind of definition in the first paragraph after the lede, to set stage and backed by a couple of solid sources that define it explicitly, but it is not there. It needs to be much more rigorous as well, for an academic topic and not one that is US centric, nor one that devotes more than half the article to LGBT. scope_creepTalk 16:55, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This article is (as is unfortunately the case with many social science articles) far from perfect and could use extensive reworking. But it has a number of scholarly sources to draw from, only some of which have WP:SYNTH issues, so per WP:PRESERVE I don't think WP:TNT applies. Speaking as a sociologist, I've seen this term around enough that I don't buy WP:NEOLOGISM as a rationale. I share *Treker's concerns about the title—"sexual racism" is a loaded phrase that does not have universal or even widespread acceptance. But we have no article on racial sexual preferences other than this except for racial fetishism, which is a separate enough topic that I don't think they should be merged, so this is the page to develop. WP:Deletion is not cleanup. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 23:40, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • I agree very strongly with this, this is a notable topic, its just a sub-part article as of now with an even worse title. I do believe that there is content worth salvaging nonetheless.★Trekker (talk) 23:56, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Sdkb and possibly rename to "Racial sexual preference," as some people seem to have a visceral reaction to the word "racism." pburka (talk) 00:00, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    • Umm, (1) Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions - 250 runway shows and more than 350 photo shoots / New York Fashion Week / Solo (2017) / numerous shows - all taking place over a ten year period seems significant. (2) Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following - 346k on Instagram / articles outlining who she is prior to her acting debut etc suggest this (3) Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment - as a model, I guess she's done as much as she can?

However she meets WP:BASIC as "multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject", already referenced in the article. Moreover; she has been walked the runway at the international level fashion show New York Fashion Week. I think there is sufficient evidence that she meets WP:GNG.

  • Delete while his rank of Brigadier General satisfies #2 of WP:SOLDIER that is only a presumption that "they have received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources" however that is not the case here and so he fails WP:GNG. Being the last of 12 British Generals to die on the Somme, even if true, isn't notable, as there were apparently 11 others killed before him. Mztourist (talk) 05:01, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Clearly does meet WP:SOLDIER, so the nomination is incorrect. This recent trend of nominating articles for deletion even though they satisfy accepted notability guidelines (and yes, WP:SOLDIER is one) is getting a little tedious. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:21, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Very confusing. This entirely unsourced article is currently disambiguated from Said Akl. The Said Akl described in this article appears to be the father of the Said Akl described in [5] (in French) (appears notable). The Said Akl born 1888 (i.e., the subject of this article) is also mentioned in [6], but it looks like a namedrop and I don't read German. I can't find anything else about this one, so appears to fail WP:GNG. I suppose this article could be entirely rewritten to be about the Said Akl described in the obit I cited, but that would be a bizarre kind of ATD, wouldn't it? frwiki and arwiki seem only to have articles on the very famous Said Akl.

To the contrary, Miss Universe 2020 itself is not referenced at all. Every reference in the article now is for national pageants only. We should not have articles about events which can not be demonstrated to exist or ever will exist. ☆ Bri (talk) 12:51, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - both. It has already been confirmed that Miss USA is going to be celebrated in November 9, that pageant is directly related to Miss Universe.

The article was deleted from Wikipedia in Portuguese.

  • Comment There are several precedents for deletion of "informational articles" about Brazilian Princes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. In Brazil, monarchist movements are very weak. The Brazilian imperial family has basically zero political power after more than 100 years that the throne does not exist. That is the reason why articles about them are frequently deleted from Wikipedia in Portuguese: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 (AfDs Wikipedia in Portuguese). Nowadays members of the imperial family are basically normal people, most of them are not even close to be celebrities. Bolhones (talk) 12:37, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Per the notes above, and the additions to references that have been made. Going forward, I would recommend that the nominator consider additional sources that might exist (and not just base their nominations on the references that have been included in the article) before triggering an AfD process. This could have been handled with tags on the page to expand sourcing. e.g. Sources Exist tag. Ktin (talk) 18:13, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Replying to Ktin (talk · contribs): My nomination is not completely based on the lack of references in the article and I still stand by it as I don't feel that a stand-alone article is required for the series. The article does not contain anything that makes it notable and distinct from the movie it based on. The primary information in the article; cast names and broadcast history (90 episodes instead of 260) can easily be convered under a section of the parent movie. Also, the article has an average traffic of less than 500 views per month and majority of the edits to the article since the show's conclusion in 2009 have been either template fixes or vandalism, which would have basically made tagging for clean-up useless. However, if the general consensus is towards keeping the article then so be it. Sunshine1191 (talk) 02:36, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      Sunshine1191, I think there is a misunderstanding. When you say "converted under a section of a parent movie," I think you might be missing the point that there is no parent movie. This is an independent series. Also, I don't agree that traffic views should be a reason to delete an article. Cheers. Ktin (talk) 02:49, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Ktin (talk · contribs) No...it isn't. Seeta Aur Geeta is a 1972 Indian movie with Hema Malini playing the double role of twins separated at birth. The above stated series is an exact frame to frame remake of that movie with nothing distinct. That is the entire reason why I started this discussion. The reason I mentioned the traffic views is that in your entry above you stated that instead of starting an Afd, tagging for sources would have been wiser. The point I was trying to make is that for a page with less viewers as this one, improvement tags generally go unnoticed for years on end, which makes adding them useless.Sunshine1191 (talk) 03:35, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        Sunshine1191, I see what you are saying. You are suggesting a remake / adaptation. But, I wouldn't call it a parent movie, and no fundamental relation between the two other than one taking the story of the other. I dont think that will be reason to club the articles. Irrespective, I think this article has references as pointed above (and now in the article) that indicates that this notable as a television series. That is my perspective. Cheers.

The result was soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. .

The article is about a local city council member who doesn't seem to be notable for anything. The only coverage he has is for a single scandal and some extremely trivial mentions about other things that are barely related to him. None of it passes WP:GNG and his position isn't politically high enough for him to pass WP:POLITICIAN. It's also worth mentioning that this article was deleted through an AfD in 2006 (apparently it wasn't enough notable for the lax rules back then) and was recreated without being improved at all. Apparently it wasn't even notable enough for the lax notability guidelines that were around back then. As far as I'm concerned, it should be deleted a second time. As he's not notability now either. --Adamant1 (talk) 14:28, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The subject of this article is clearly notable and meets the WP:GNG guidelines based on a simple assessment below of just a handful of sources. Furthermore, the nominator is making an assumption that the subject is notable only for its spinoff from a global venture group, and that is not accurate. The subject is a venture capital firm with significant investments in the Indian startup ecosystem. The range of their investments can also be seen at prominent venture tracking pages including Crunchbase [13], Bloomberg[14], and Pitchbook [15] to name a few. Further more, this article has been written with an eye towards being factual and meeting the WP:NPOV guidelines and does not qualify as WP:PROMO. In summary, the [WP:GNG] emphasizes a) reliable sources b) Independent of the subject c) signficant coverage d) multitude of those sources -- all of whom are met by this subject.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Ktin (talkcontribs) 02:04, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

    • Comment I note you have not referred to the relevant guidelines for companies which is WP:NCORP and as such, your analysis completely missed the two vital sections of WP:NCORP - WP:CORPDEPTH which requires in-depth information on the company and (relevant to your sources) WP:ORGIND which has this to say in relation to "Independent Content": Too often a related party produces a narrative that is then copied, regurgitated, and published in whole or in part by independent parties (as exemplified by churnalism). Independent content, in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. The template you are using is a generic GNG template. The livemint reference is based on "anonymous" sources and fails even as an RS. The indiatimes reference is based on an announcement, fails ORGIND. The thehindu reference is based on an interview with a company executive. HighKing++ 19:02, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    • Expanding on my keep !vote per Ktin's recent ping. All of the sources in the sources table above—The Economic Times, Livemint, and The Hindu—are major Indian newspapers, at least one of which (The Hindu) is described at Wikipedia:Perennial sources as generally reliable and should be treated as a newspaper of record. While it is true, as noted below, that the articles listed in the sources table are sourced primarily to quotes with people close to the firm, that's not fatal in my view because these are major newspapers that publish serious journalism. And, although they do feature quotes from those close to the firm, they are not merely repackaged press releases, as they include analysis that goes beyond the quotes provided.

  • Comment: I'll have to agree in part that the coverage of the company does not seem to meet WP:CORPDEPTH at least with the sources shown till now which have a greater requirements of coverage than WP:GNG to be considered notable. Tayi Arajakate Talk 01:42, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. WP:NCORP emphasizes the need for coverage about a subject (a company) to be a) Significant b) Independent c) Reliable d) Secondary. All of the news articles about this investment fund meet the above criteria. Now, specifically to the point on WP:CORPDEPTH - Corpdepth can be tested by running the articles against the listing of trivial coverage and proving that this is not trivial coverage. E.g. trivial coverage as WP:CORPDEPTH notes are 'simple listings or compilations', 'standard notices, brief announcements, and routine coverage', and 'brief or passing mentions'. You can see that the news items that have been highlighted are clearly not trivial at least based on above criteria. Specifically to the statement about this being a 'firm going about its business'. Absolutely. Almost all firms go about their business, and do not set out with a stated objective to be encyclopedic. But, 'going about their business' in turn can create value that will translate to notability, like this one. Cheers. Ktin (talk) 03:16, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete: I'm sorry to say that despite appearances this VC lacks significant and independent coverage. Most of the links I found were primary sources/interviews/announcements (which, shockingly, I discovered is the case for everything at Category:Venture capital firms of India -- but, sigh, that's another story..). The Hindu, too, is not infallible, as we've seen multiple times on these pages. Their story is based on this press release with direct quotes picked up from it. I can find mentions of the company but, honestly, not the kind of significant coverage associated with encyclopaedic notability. This seems to me to be a case of WP:TOOSOON. Let some time pass; let it breathe; let it affect the zeitgeist. Allow it to make a mark in the industry, to dictate business trends, and be independently reported on, something that captures its relevance -- apart from the bread-and-butter funding stories found in the pink papers. (As an aside, to understand what significant coverage looks like in this sector, one can observe Sequoia Capital India backed by articles like this Bloomberg Quint piece and even better and solid academic sources like this Venture Capital Investments (SAGE Publications, ISBN 9789353884161). The time will, perhaps, eventually come when the reliable sources for Chiratae Ventures will shout "notable". But that time, in my humble opinion, is not now. Best regards, MaysinFourty (talk) 07:40, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Agree with MaysinFourty's reasoning. CORPDEPTH needs "the level of attention that extends well beyond brief mentions and routine announcements." It does not seem to be the case here, the sources more or less speak about the same thing. While they may not be trivial, they are routine for any investment fund. --Ab207 (talk) 15:23, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. The nomination has been countered with the provision of sources, although claims of promotionalism in the nomination were not addressed much in the discussion. The nominator has not commented on the sources provided later in the discussion, and the user that !voted to delete after the nomination stated later in the discussion, "I will not re-analyse further referencing, it's hard work". As such, it appears that the sources presented later in the discussion were not addressed by either. Conversely and relative to this, there is an overall consensus here that the subject meets notability guidelines per the sources presented herein.

Unfortunately this shows that the creating editor and I differ about the qualifty of sourcing. This is the level of diligence Wikipedia requires when assessing references, though it is not often formalised in this manner. I have not sought additional references. The onus is on those who wish to verify notabikity to provide those, so I ask them to use the same diligence Fiddle Faddle 18:52, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Responding to above comment, I want to call out that the above post is not truly evaluating notability because the post is looking at links that have been used to prove specific points rather than links that point to the subject's general notability. E.g. The link to his book, was a link from a bookstore. The link showing his current designation is a link to his profile on a related website. Those should not be reasons to disallow his notability. However, I have taken a shot at filling a table proving that there are significant sources to prove notability and all with mainstream reliable media sources. With this I believe that the subject definitely meets the WP:GNG guidelines for WP:NOTABILITY and should continue to remain. In summary, the WP:GNG guidelines emphasizes a) reliable sources b) Independent of the subject c) signficant coverage d) multitude of those sources -- all of whom are met by this subject. Please see table below.

  • Comment. Before I respond with the reasons why this article should be 'kept', I want to first answer the COI / Paid editing charge above. I have responded both on my talk page User talk:Ktin#August 2020 and on my user page that I do not have a COI with any of the articles that I edit and I also certify that I am not paid for any of my actions on this site. Ktin (talk) 15:03, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Ktin, I accept the assertion made here and on your talk page. I have left you a personal comment not relevant to this AfD there Fiddle Faddle 15:51, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The subject of the article is a prominent business executive and passes WP:NBIO requirements as well as WP:NOTABILITY. Specifically, he has been the Chairman of Microsoft India, Chairman of Bank of Baroda, and co-chairman of the board at Infosys Technologies amongst a few other. These are significant leadership positions. Furthermore, he has significant media coverage, over and above passing mentions. This meets the notability guideline as called out at WP:NOTE.
Some examples of coverage that is notable and are independent of the topic:
Newspapers and Web based media
  1. - LiveMint [18] [19]
  2. - The Indian Express / Financial Express [20] [21]
  3. - The Economic Times [22] [23] [24]
  4. - The Hindu / The Hindu Business Line [25] [26] [27]
All of the above sources are independent of the subject, and are more than a passing mention.
He is in the similar category of Indian Business Executives as the following folks (just indicative) -- S. D. Shibulal, Kris Gopalakrishnan, and most folks in this Category:20th-century_Indian_businesspeople and Category:21st-century Indian businesspeople.
Quality Concerns - This can be a legitimate concern. However, the article has been written with WP:NPOV in mind, without making it seem like a WP:PROMO. However, if there is targeted feedback / recommended changes - these can be worked in parallel when this article is live. This article is a stub, or a start class article, and that can definitely be expanded.
Cheers.

  • Comment While I imagine it will conclude too late for this deletion discussion I have started a discussion about Livemint in the Reliable Sources arena. My opinion clearly differs from that of another editor. Consensus is required from editors wise in assessing sources for futire reference. Fiddle Faddle 07:46, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Without making this a referendum on Livemint, I want to say that the link / article being considered seems to be a syndication of an article with a named author by-line from Bloomberg viz. this one and not a press-release. I am assuming that just like with any other syndication, there are due partnering agreements in place - Nothing wrong with that per se. Now, if there is an assertion that the latter article is not a piece of original reporting, that charge should be attributed to Bloomberg. Cheers. Ktin (talk) 12:21, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: I agree with Ktin, the subject seems to an important person in Indian business circles. He meets WP:GNG and WP:BIO with or without LiveMint being treated as RS. However LiveMint is definitely one of the top business newspaper in India. His chairmanship of three companies itself is enough to make him notable according to WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE (Infosys is the 5th largest Indian company by market cap being part of both SENSEX and Nifty-50 index, Bank of Baroda is the 3rd largest Bank in India by its business size, Microsoft has a large presence in India due to its market size and talent). His departure from Infosys itself seems to made a huge noise in Indian financial papers. --Roller26 (talk) 00:27, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. This is one of the dubious "rivalry" articles created by the notorious User:CalebHughes and/or his myriad sockpuppets. It has been tagged for notability for more than two years with no significant improvements made. My searches reveal a lot of mirrors of the Wikipedia article but do not reveal significant coverage in reliable, independent sources of the type required by GNG. Further, the series lacks other indicia of a rivalry: no trophy; no game name; no lengthy history (first game in 1984; last game in 2011); infrequency of play (13 total games); and lack of competitiveness (WV dominated the series, 10–3).

This hospital doesn't seem notable. The only non-primary sources in the article are about a mass shooting that wasn't connected to the organization except for a few of the victims being taken there and notability isn't inherited. I couldn't find anything about it in a WP:BEFORE either. Except some brief mentions in trivial articles about Covid-19. Which most hospitals are getting coverage for right now.

Too strict?
I think the strict application of WP:GNG in this category would almost certainly discard any African based art curator, as most would do worst compared to this one, his google search hits ("List of South African Curators + John fleetwood") were quite revealing for me. This curator is definitely notable having worked in at least 3 countries in the African continent. This a good place to start if we are to document African curators. --Thuvack | talk 15:41, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP
Agree with Thuvack, this is a problem that plagues many African articles. Although in this case, there are more support reference articles for this subject than can usually be found. There is not enough coverage of notable people within the art world - and other professions - across Africa (and other developing communities) for these reasons. Please reconsider.

  • Delete Wikipedia is drowning in articles that do not meet GNG. We barely have the resources to maintain articles that actually meet GNG. There is no reason to embrace articles that do not meet GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:00, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Johnpacklambert, you say "There is no reason to embrace articles that do not meet GNG"; but Thuvack and Islahaddow have just provided a reason for accepting this one. You are of course free to reject it for one reason or another; but you might at least acknowledge its utterance. My problem with this article is that it sounds both like a CV (with even a list of "panel discussions" participated in (!)) and promotional: "Fleetwood has been noted for his 20 years of experience in understanding the role of photography and arts practices for social change" (Noted by whom, and where? How does "photography and arts practices" differ from plain "photography and art"? Is understanding [whatever] something of which one has experience?) Perhaps Moenirah would like to return to their creation and remove the excess stuff, and also the promotionalism. -- Hoary (talk) 08:13, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Their reason boils down to "we need to right wrongs" which is not one of the goals of Wikipedia, and explicitly stated as one thing Wikipedia does not try to do.John Pack Lambert (talk) 11:59, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • If the "keep" comments above had read "There's a northern-hemisphere hegemony in curatorship worldwide; we need more articles on Africa-based curators in order to do away with this", I'd agree with you. But they don't. Instead, they're talking about (claimed) weaknesses within Wikipedia. I'd thought that strengthening the weak areas within Wikipedia -- if they really are weak; if strengthening them wouldn't produce more problems -- would be an admirable goal. What do you think of the essay "Wikipedia:Systemic bias" -- is it incompatible with the goals of Wikipedia? -- Hoary (talk) 12:39, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I also have to agree with Thuvack - if we were to apply WP:GNG to the strictest degree, most curators from Africa would not be eligible. Going through the linked sources and my own research on Google, Mr. Fleetwood might be indeed one of the most prolific and impactful curators in Africa, a fine example for future entries about African curators. However, I do also agree with John regarding the "20 years of experience" sentence - this should either be further elaborated or left out altogether according to WP:PROMO ParanoidAndroid83 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 09:04, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • update (still keep ;-)) -- as suggested by Hoary and others above (thank you), the writers of the article have worked on the language to reduce the perception of promotionalism. Please can you review and decide accordingly. The article is being written by members of the Art on Our Mind collective being run out of Witswatersrand University in South Africa to ensure that Africa's notable artists and curators are indeed given rightful visibility on global platforms. Although "northern-hemisphere hegemony" and systemic bias were not mentioned in my defence above, this article and others like it are part of a concerted and long term effort to fill the gaps, however they do come up against significant issues with regards to citations, as well as being new-ish editors. Mentorship and guidance would definitely be appreciated. Thanks! Isla Haddow (talk) 08:26, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. These "new-ish editors": are they students at Wits? If so, they really ought to know that when you make an assertion and follow it with a reference, the reference should back up the assertion. Not just part of the assertion, still less just say something that's vaguely compatible with the assertion. I looked at one "reference": it turned out not to be a reference. I then looked at two more: same thing. Whether or not a biographee meets the requirements for "notability" is something that might be negotiable. But it's simply unacceptable to misrepresent what look like references but in reality are not. -- Hoary (talk) 12:24, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I hope I am using this "talk" area properly - this is my first time here. Please let me know if I miss any conventions.
    • Regarding "non-notable": I would argue that by following the prescribed registration process with the local Electoral Authority (Elections ACT), that the threshold for notability has been met - at least as much as all the other parties. Further, this article was redlinked from the article on a State level election, indicating the author there felt the article should be created.
    • Regarding "single-candidate": While there are other unannounced candidates running for this party, I don't believe that running a single candidate would be grounds for deletion. There are other parties world-wide built around a single candidate.
    • Regarding "failed to win an election yet": Of the 16 parties contesting this election, 13 have so far failed to win a seat. They have articles given they have a history spanning multiple elections, but so has this candidate.
    • Regarding the autobiographical nature: this article was red-linked from the General Election article 2020 Australian Capital Territory general election, and a user whom I do not know requested I create the article. I did read the guidelines on autobiographical content, and believe I wrote an article that was impartial.

  • Weak delete/draftify. Our general practice has been to include articles on all parties registered for federal, state or territory elections (the way our results pages work you really need the link to go somewhere, but I can't see anywhere useful to merge this at this point), but we have made exceptions in the past and this seems like it might be another one, as I can't see any independent coverage whatsoever. This is also not a real "party" as such but a tool for an independent to get his name more prominent on the ballot; normally we'd redirect those to the person, but in this case he isn't notable either. Really any useful independent coverage of the party would probably get me over the line to keep. It may well be that more coverage will be forthcoming as the election draws nearer, so draftifying would also be an appropriate option, although I'm not sure the current content makes that worth it.

  • Comment - this is of course not an argument based on Wikipedia guidelines, but I think that since we have so few articles about non-western scientists, we could be more lax when it comes to articles about them. Otherwise, we risk being unbalanced in favour of western subjects. Remember, many sources about him are probably in Arabic, so it is perhaps misleading that we can't find more sources in English. FunkMonk (talk) 14:20, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Article subjects should be notable, and should not exist for the sole of purpose of trying to promote diversity. If we want to do that, we can create articles on notable non-Western scientists   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  14:33, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
We should do that, yes. But I'm wondering if there isn't much more about him in Arabic, but I don't remember what the guidelines about this are. Here are some Arabic articles found by searching his name in Arabic, a Scientific American biography it appears:[28] And various other long features:[29][30][31][32] Maybe we can get some Arabic speaking editors to look the sources over. FunkMonk (talk) 14:40, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure, he isn't very notable, plus, his discovery of Mansourasaurus isn't notable either. What do others think? JurassicClassic767 (talk | contribs) 14:58, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'll try a "tentative keep" for now. JurassicClassic767 (talk | contribs) 18:58, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I have also found an article in German that talks about Sallam.[33]. Between this and some of the Arabic articles, I think that counts as multiple independent published sources with non-trivial information on him, so he appears to meet notability guidelines to me. As far as his significance, he's also the founder of the first vertebrate paleontology program in Egypt, not just the discoverer of one dinosaur. That all said, the article clearly needs considerable improvement. If that improvement turns out to be impossible, I am open to reconsidering my stance, but for now I think we should err on the side of "keep". Ornithopsis (talk) 17:41, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I've made a go at rewriting the article. How does this look? Ornithopsis (talk) 00:26, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good to me, I think the video interview could be put back? It also shows significance. FunkMonk (talk) 07:49, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - adding my formal vote, per Ornithopsis. Naming dinosaurs is not the only way to be a significant palaeontologist, he seems to be doing a lot of things to further paleontology within Egypt (which has otherwise been dominated by Western scientists), and he seems to be supporting many female scientists there as well, which is quite important. There seems to be much more relevant coverage of him in languages other than English, so the article just needs a bit of work. FunkMonk (talk) 17:47, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tentative Keep: Agreed with some of the comments above, but if the article doesn't get expanded as expected, I'll probably change my opinion again. JurassicClassic767 (talk | contribs) 18:58, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I've added two of the sources above, there seems to be a lot of good stuff about his importance to Egyptian paleontology and where it is heading. Looks like a lot more can be used from these sources. FunkMonk (talk) 20:57, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The sources do seem reliable and have a lot of essential info that can be added to the article.

Weakly sourced WP:FRINGEBLP of a subject who may nonetheless meet WP:NPROF. He co-authored a book ([48]) with a very large number of cites, so there's a decent case for NPROF#1. I don't think WP:NPOL applies to someone who was chief economist for the US Dept of Labor for one year, but perhaps it does.

This page was nominated for deletion in 2019. While his rank of Brigadier General satisfies #2 of WP:SOLDIER that is only a presumption that "they have received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources" however that is not the case here and so he fails WP:GNG.

  • Keep per WP:SOLDIER. This recent trend of nominating articles for deletion even though they satisfy accepted notability guidelines (and yes, WP:SOLDIER is one) is getting a little tedious. And the conclusion of the discussion cited above certainly wasn't that one-star officers don't count. In actual fact, it wasn't even about that subject, but about whether the guideline should specifically include Commonwealth brigadiers and commodores (who aren't technically general or flag officers, but hold equivalent rank). I would also note that the previous AfD on this article, which was almost unanimous keep, was only nine months ago. Why are we having another? To beat those of us who approve of WP:SOLDIER into submission? -- Necrothesp (talk) 20:40, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Because WP:SOLDIER is being misrepresented by you. A low tier flag officer like Edens who lacks SIGCOV in multiple RS does not meet GNG and does not warrant a page. The discussion is relevant because it addresses those issues and disproves your claimed consensus that just acheiving one star rank is a pass on notability. Mztourist (talk) 04:56, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • You should also read Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history/Archive_90#Notability_Military_Biography the discussion which led to the WP:SOLDIER essay, particularly the comment that "significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources is non-negotiable; without this, a person is not notable and can't have an article."

I think.its time we had another look at this. Previously kept for reasons that would not cut the mustard now, the only recent sourcing relates to allegations about her husband! For BLP reasons I am astonished that we publish allegations about her role in her husband's scandal but don't have an article on him. Since the only sourced material is as an accesory to her husband this feels.like a do no harm case. Suggest we redirect to the relevant hall of fame article. News had nothing about her and first 5 pages of goggle were links to sites advertising her videos. Spartaz Humbug! 21:47, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notability standards change so ancient previous discussions really have no bearing. 13 years ago we kept everything if they were good looking. Thank goodness we are beyond that.

Having read the 2 previous AfD discussions, this article was not kept because she was pretty but because she met several categories of WP:PORNBIO (now deprecated) but she clearly meets WP:ENT #2 and #3.

  • Delete. Significant RS coverage is about the accusations against the subject's husband. Porn trade press coverage are repackaged press releases, company announcements or interviews. WP:BASIC failure. Porn awards without independent RS coverage don't count for WP:ENT notability.

  • Delete. This article has zero citations. Of the four external links, three of them are to websites which have expired or are dead links, while the fourth is to the first ten pages (only) of a master's thesis -- that is, just the table of contents, acknowledgments, glossary, list of abbreviations, and abstract. The article claims that "Old Catholics do not need to raise money for pensions, building maintenance or to fund the local diocese", although in fact some Old Catholic denominations have churches with buildings that require maintenance, dioceses, and clergy who retire and need to have their pensions funded. There are a great many denominations which classify themselves as Old Catholic (see List of independent Catholic denominations), and it's not clear which of them the writer of this article had in mind. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 20:36, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A dead mall. The article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NBUILD: "Buildings, including private residences and commercial developments, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability." The subject does not have coverage that meets significant coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability. WP:BEFORE revealed advertising, WP:ROUTINE coverage of events and directory style listings.

  • Keep, clearly another WP:POINT argument from TimothyBlue. WP:ROTM is not policy. The sources present do establish notability, and the only other people calling for deletion are just saying WP:NOTNOTABLE and WP:PERNOM, neither of which is valid nor gives any proof to notability or lack thereof. The site of the mall is a topic of discussion long after the mall became defunct, indicating that it had a long lasting impact. Buildings do not cease being notable when they are torn down.

  • Reply @TenPoundHammer:: You state "The sources present do establish notability" Tell all of us here and the closer, which of the sources present establish notability?
As for the two sources you mention
  • [52] talk about is the "vacant lot of Indian Springs Mall turned into a drive-thru pickup location for Harvesters to give food to families" - How does this make the mall notable? It doesn't talk about the mall. It talks about a vacant lot where a mall used to be and an event taking place there. It doesn't say anything about the mall.
  • [53] This talks about plans for what might happen to a vacant lot where the mall used to be. It doesn't say anything about the mall.
  • Tell everyone and the closer: What about the mall do the above sources state that establish notability?   // Timothy :: talk  18:11, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reply @MB:: Since you wrote, "discussing it in depth", tell everyone and the closer what indepth information does this article have about the mall? Because when I read it, this is not an article about the mall. It is an article about the hope of tearing the abandoned mall down and redeveloping the property into something completely different. Also you state, "700,000 sqft enclosed mall open for 30 years, clearly notable" tell everyone and the closer what guideline or policy are you basing this on?

  • Concern I am concerned that the table above is approaching placing undue weight on an argument. I have no issue discussing sources (that's central to AFDs) but I am concerned that the use of a table with background colors and icons is putting undue weight on the argument. In addition, it fails to address other sources as they are brought forward and participation in AFD then becomes more weighted for someone's ability to make a better-looking table than upon the presentation of the best argument. I guess it feels like it's approaching the same kind of thing (although not exactly) that Wikipedia:Adjectives in your recommendations is also seeking to avoid.--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:59, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply @Paulmcdonald: These tables are used all the time in AfDs. There is an easy to use script to create them here: User:DannyS712/SATG. They are an easy way to evaluate sources and anyone can use them.   // Timothy :: talk  02:37, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Anyone can use them who also knows JavaScript and is familair with them. As it stands now, it's showing a clear one-sided view. I've been around AFDs for over a decade, never seen it. Sure I haven't seen them all, but it looks unfair.--Paul McDonald (talk) 21:45, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The sources above and in the article are all routine run of the mill coverage and announcements. They do not establish notability. Every mall will have lots of routine coverage because they seek it out as advertising. If this type of coverage makes a mall notable, then every mall will be notable.   // Timothy :: talk  02:37, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I added a lot of coverage, mostly from the 1995-1997 era. The Kansas City Star only goes back to 1995 on ProQuest. I imagine there is comparable coverage available before then, but I don't have access to it. Calliopejen1 (talk) 18:23, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment for closer: since there is an RfC currently under discussion at AfD about what is considered proper sourcing for determining mall notabiity, it may be worth holding these open until that is finished. If a close is made, it would be very helpful for the RfC if you could explain how you evaluated the sources in terms of notability, routine, run of the mill coverage, and how you feel voting and !voting influenced this AfD.

A demolished mall in Scottsdale AZ that operated from 1969-1999. The article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NBUILD: "Buildings, including private residences and commercial developments, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability." The subject does not have coverage that meets significant coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability. WP:BEFORE revealed advertising, WP:ROUTINE coverage of events and directory style listings. A single reference is about the opening, most of the article appears to be WP:OR, except basic facts about when it opened and it's demolition.   // Timothy :: talk  06:30, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • There will be just as much coverage, if not more, than for Tri-City Pavilions. Los Arcos died at a similar time, and then the property became a hugely notable political football because it was proposed as a sports arena site. Keep and please slow down because we're not going to have time to make improvements at the pace your AfDs are requiring. Raymie (tc) 07:24, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question @Raymie:: How is what was done with the property after the mall closed/demolished related to the mall? And how would the way the land was used after the mall closed/demolished provide evidence of historic, social, economic, or architectural importance? The controversy above should be addressed in the article about the sports arena or the city. WP:NBUILD requires evidence of historic, social, economic, or architectural importance.   // Timothy :: talk  07:43, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I think it's status as the first mall by large developer Westcor stands as a reason for notability. Note that if you look at the property list on their page, while Scottsdale Fashion Square is *older*, it was not built by them, and only acquired in 1982. Pokemonprime (talk) 07:49, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply @Pokemonprime:: Being the first mall by large developer Westcor does not make this mall notable. It might impact the notability of Westcor, but has nothing to do with the historic, social, economic, or architectural importance of this mall per WP:NBUILD.
  • Keep, sourcing is far beyond routine, notability is easily asserted. TimothyBlue is clearly invoking WP:POINT here. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 14:59, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply: The article contains one source, it is routine news coverage about the mall opening. A WP:BEFORE search online and in newspapers.com shows only routine coverage of events such as openings and closing, the decline of the mall, advertising. Coverage that every mall would receive. Nothing that establishes either WP:GNG or WP:NBUILD.
None of the keep votes has bothered to !vote with sources, evidence or guidelines. The argument that being "the first mall by large developer Westcor" is notable is nonsense. Keep votes are not providing any evidence of WP:SIGCOV because there is none.
There is nothing pointy about this TenPoundHammer, if you feel otherwise, ANI is your recourse but prepare for a boomerang based on WP:DISCUSSAFD: "When an editor offers arguments or evidence that do not explain how the article meets/violates policy, they may only need a reminder to engage in constructive, on-topic discussion. But a pattern of groundless opinion, proof by assertion, and ignoring content guidelines may become disruptive." The closer is going to look at the sources, evidence and guidelines, and nothing else.   // Timothy :: talk  15:34, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Large malls are clearly notable. This newspaper archive search shows 43k hits. Many may be advertisements or routine mentions, but a quick scan of the first few pages show plenty of coverage. One specific example is a 1991 article discussing its 30 year history.[55]. MB 19:00, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @MB: That's going in the in-progress expansion of this article right now, actually! Raymie (tc) 19:01, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @TimothyBlue: FYI, I have expanded this article dramatically. It now has 67 references and discusses the lengthy history of this property and redevelopment. Raymie (tc) 21:31, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per the above comments by TPH, Pokemonprime, MB, and Raymie. It seems that GNG is greatly established here, and in any case, that supersedes NBUILD, a specific-notability guideline. I'll copy what I said in a similar nomination because it also applies here: The references in this page are definitely not mere directory listings or routine coverage. It may have seemed that way prior to the recent edits, but not in the current condition of the article. epicgenius (talk) 22:19, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • CommentThe sources added to the article are all routine run of the mill coverage and announcements. They do not establish notability. Every mall will have lots of routine coverage because they seek it out as advertising. If this type of coverage makes a mall notable, then every mall will be notable.   // Timothy :: talk  02:20, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @TimothyBlue: This mall didn't need to seek out routine coverage—particularly in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The hockey arena plan was an extremely memorable and high-profile situation; it made the front page of the Republic on a number of occasions. Name me another mall that resulted in the sale of an NHL franchise! I'm just going to let reviewers decide if the expansion and additional sourcing support notability for this topic. Raymie (tc) 03:18, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, WP:ROUTINE, even if it were policy, does not apply to buildings. This one clearly passes WP:GNG, and it wouldn't have fallen foul of WP:ROUTINE even if it did apply. Devonian Wombat (talk) 08:42, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment for closer: since there is an RfC currently under discussion at AfD about what is considered proper sourcing for determining mall notabiity, it may be worth holding these open until that is finished. If a close is made, it would be very helpful for the RfC if you could explain how you evaluated the sources in terms of notability, routine, run of the mill coverage, and how you feel voting and !voting influenced this AfD. Thank you,

  • Speedy keep, user clearly does not know what WP:ROUTINE means and is clearly invoking WP:POINT by nominating as many shopping mall articles as humanly possible. The coverage is far beyond WP:ROUTINE, which itself is not policy anyway. None of the coverage is "such things as announcements, sports, speculative coverage, and tabloid journalism... Wedding announcements, sports scores, crime logs...the brief, often light and amusing (for example bear-in-a-tree or local-person-wins-award), stories that frequently appear in the back pages of newspapers". The fact that the center is defunct is irrelevant; things do not stop being notable when they cease to exist. TimothyBlue keeps throwing around the word "routine" but failing to prove how any of said coverage is supposedly routine. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 15:06, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply None of the sources in the article support either WP:GNG or WP:NBUILD. They are WP:ROUTINE news coverage of announcements such as openings, closings, events, promotions, "common, everyday, ordinary items that do not stand out." The keep vote has not provided any sources or evidence that this mall is notable. Below demonstrates that the sources do not show notability, a search of newspapers.com will show nothing either.

Please avail yourself of this resource, so that when you do your WP:BEFORE check, you are also seeing the news coverage available there.

  • Delete, fails WP:NCORP as written – there are no independent reliable sources in the page at all. It gets no hits on GBooks, and nine passing mentions on GNews, but no in-depth coverage of any kind that I can see. Incidentally, according to its own website, it is not an animal refuge at all, but a rented/shared office space open to the public for four hours a week.

    • Yes, part of their history included a person who was involved in wildlife rescue, but that person is no longer associated with the group and licenses are required to continue the wildlife activities, so the activity was dropped... though the name remained the same. And they were small enough to be unable to secure and keep a brick-and-mortar property for ordinary animal shelter activities. Yes, a rented office in town plus limited foster-based animal care is all that is left. Was never really notable.

Looks like a failure of WP:NBUILD and WP:GNG. Found in CAT:NN cleanup. The source currently in the article is published by the synagogue itself. This LOC item is just a photograph, the only information really about the synagogue itself is the one-sentence photo caption. I wouldn't exactly consider this brief listing to be significant coverage. This newspaper piece only mentions that a concert is being held in the building. Another brief organizational listing, this time from a chamber of commerce. Emporis just gives the address and dimensions, which isn't WP:SIGCOV either. I'm not aware of any guideline that gives houses of worship automatic notability, and the two that are applicable: WP:NBUILD and WP:GNG are not met. Hog Farm Bacon 02:40, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Analysis of sources: 1. (Sun-Sentinel) Good, significant coverage in a reliable source. 2.) (Jewish Virtual Library) - Only seems to mention this temple in one sentence, unless I missed something. 3.) (Syracuse University Library) - Mentions that the architect's plans are held in a source. There's no significant coverage in this source, and the blueprints would be primary sources. 4.) (Temple Emanu-El) Published by the temple, so not independent. 5.) (Jewish Journal) - Only an oblique mention, stating that the subject of that piece was a member of the temple. 6.) (Lying on the Beach - Doubtful reliability, and only coverage is a statement that someone is a member of the temple. So the sum total of that is one source of significant coverage in reliable sources. That's not sufficient. Hog Farm Bacon 03:17, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
