  • Keep First deletion discussion was in 2009, with only 2 delete !votes, one of which seemed to mistakenly think the film was in "development" and suggested recreating without prejudice when it "[started] filming"—when it had actually been released 4 years previously. On this basis, I don't think the original deletion was very sound. In terms of notability, the film was broadcast nationally on the ABC network, and nominated for AFI and Logie Awards for best mini-series/TV movie as well as for three other awards in other fields. --Canley (talk) 03:30, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was move to Draft:Jagadeesh Prathap Bandhari. There is a clear consensus to delete, but given the alternative votes to move this to draft, that would just lead to a request to refund to draft, which would likely be granted per WP:PRESERVE, so we'll skip that step and go right to draft.

Page has been tagged for notability, and I'm failing to find any coverage of this organisation, or why it is important. It seems to have existed in the early 80s, only to be revived more recently, but I can't find any info on why it was formed, why it stopped, or why it came back. The only sources are IMDB and the orgs own website. The latter of which seems to be dead (at least here in the UK). Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 19:53, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I see no evidence of notability. As I asked in my edit summary when I added the notability tag, do people even give a shit when they win? Anyone can give Clint Eastwood an award. The website also doesn't work for me, but it's archived here [1]. As expected, you pay to enter, and they tout their previous famous winners of the award in order to make it look more prestigious than it really is. There's some possibility this is just a pay-to-play awards scam like exists in the literary community. Bueller 007 (talk) 19:58, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Next to a FS campground of the same name, old enough topos show a row of buildings, but aerials of the same era show nothing. The only source I could find was this, which claims that the area was the site of an early cabin, that it was eventually called Big Meadow Ranch for a time, and that "A summer home tract was surveyed in 1922, but a resort was never developed," which could explain the row of buildings. At any rate, that's the best I could do. Mangoe (talk) 19:16, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • DELETE per nomination it is JUST a neighborhood, according to this: [[2] I think real estate agents will advertise any neighborhood name they can find or make up, just to increase sales within the neighborhoods. Goldenrowley (talk) 21:04, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete It looks like Big Meadow was historically a vacation or summer home area; this article is about the first lodge opening there, and I found a few other pieces about people vacationing there (but not about anyone living there). The closest I got to a resident was this article about a merchant there, but a merchant is not necessarily a resident. If this was just a summer home area and not a permanent community, I don't think it clears the bar of notability without additional coverage.

See also: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of video games by daily active users. There is no way to make this verifiable and reliable. In practice, "monthly" is no better than "daily", as these statistics aren't reliably updated on a monthly basis. This list is inherently unverifiable, which is how you end up with entries on here with severely outdated information, to the point of not even being active games anymore. And as I mentioned in the other AFD, if we did find a reliable third party that was publishing monthly user data, we'd essentially be updating this monthly as some sort of news page, and Wikipedia is WP:NOTNEWS. If this ever becomes something that could be covered properly, it will likely be at an industry database similar to the Nielsen Ratings, and not on Wikipedia itself.

  • Delete. I agree 100% that these types of lists are inherently unverifiable and inherently going to get outdated, as we can see in how some entries have not been updated since 2011.--AlexandraIDV 19:59, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete even if we put aside WP:OR, and WP:SYNTH; wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. There is no encyclopaedic value behind "which game was played the most last month". There is no way to get true numbers, as the numbers are going to come from primary sources, even if they are later reported by secondary sources.

  • Delete. Nevermind the nigh-insurmountable sourcing challenges, it makes zero sense to make comparisons like this. What does it even mean that Crossfire had 13M more monthly players in Jan 2020 than PUBG did in June 2018? The month is different, the months since launch of their respective games is different, the genre is different. Nothing is controlled for so the comparison is nonsense! It's like saying cats are longer than potatoes. Yes, the unit of measure is the same but there has been no effort to explain why you're making the comparison in the first place.

The standard for inclusion is multiple significant roles in notable productions. Maybe one of the roles is significant, so that standard is clearly failed. The one source here, IMDB is not reliable, and we cannot have biogrpahies of living people without sourcing to reliable sources, so in that case this cannot have no information at all. This page has existed for 13 years, had notification of problems for 7 years.

  • Delete The fact that there are notable actors does not establish notability for this film as notability isn't inherited. With that said, other than the one review mentioned I could find nothing of substance. Lots of links to databases, youtube videos, and other sites that fail all of the reliability requirements. Saying that it satisfies #1 of other evidence of notability is wrong, because that clearly states "received full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics." and we can only find one. You cannot assume that there is more. Donaldd23 (talk) 21:08, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • While I agree that at least two known reviews are needed, it cannot be assumed that they do not exist because they are not available online. Its unfortunate that most Indian Newspapers do not store content before 2000s. Even if they were, Google search does a terrible job when it comes to Indian languages. I've tried to preset whatever I could find by searching manually. --Ab207 (talk) 08:02, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Indeed, we cannot assume that sources don't exist because they're not online. But it remains the case that in order to keep the article, those sources need to be produced, and they need to be verifiable by other editors.

The result was delete. None of the "keep" opinions propose sources establishing notability. Their argument is based on WP:OUTCOMES, which is not a policy or guideline, but a description of past outcomes. This argument is invalid, because each article is judged on its own merits, and if notability concerns are raised, sources must be submitted. Sandstein 14:00, 16 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete City council person is way to low of a political position to pass WP:NPOL and fails the notability guidelines anyway due to the lack of multiple in-depth reliable sources about her. Adamant1 (talk) 05:35, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Frivolous nomination. There are 12 members of the Minneapolis City Council, and nine have pages, so you better get cracking. Per WP:POLOUTCOMES, precedent has tended to favor keeping members of the main citywide government of internationally famous metropolitan areas. KidAd (💬💬) 05:45, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Even if you take that position, which is pretty dubious since "other stuff exists" isn't really a valid argument, there still isn't multiple reliable in-depth sources about her to pass WP:GNG. Since it looks like the only source in the article that is about her specifically is about the price of her house. Id hardly call that worthy of the notability guidelines for politicians. WP:POLOUTCOMES doesn't mean you can ignore the notability guidelines. Adamant1 (talk) 16:24, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
She is a member of a major legislative body in a major American city. This is not the Rushville, Ohio Town Council. KidAd (💬💬) 19:24, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
What most importantly in the guidelines, but also in reality, determines what a major legislative body is? Last I checked, WP:POLITICIAN is about the position the person has. WP:DIPLOMAT says "American county-level legislators are considered to be similarly not-inherently notable just like municipal politicians." Most county-level legislators in America are part of a "major legislative body" whatever that means, but even they aren't inherently notable. Minneapolis isn't even the capital of Minnesota either and population wise it's pretty middle of the road. It's definitely not in the same league as say New York, Dallas, or even barely say Nashville. If you want to make the "other stuff exists" argument, only two city Council members in Nashville have Wikipedia articles and both are extremely well sourced with coverage in multiple national news outlets. Especially Megan Barry. Which can't be said for this person. Personally, I'd be willing to say maybe a city council member is worthy of notability in some rare cases, but the sources would have to be on par with Megan Barry's or at least a little less and not run of the mill topics like how they city council voted on something or things related to a single news event like George Floyd's murder. Which is important, but has way less to do with this lady in particular then it does Minneapolis or even the Minneapolis City Council as a group. All the coverage seems to be about the city council as a group. Not about her specifically. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:07, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I changed my vote to merge or redirect to Minneapolis City Council. I think that's the best middle ground between just deleting her article or keeping it when she's not notable enough on her own to warrant an article about her. I'm sure the same can and probably will eventually be done for the other Minneapolis City Council that have articles. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:14, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the op-ed wall of text. The "major legislative body" is the Minneapolis City Council, which has jurisdiction over a city of approximately 382,578 people (at the time of the 2010 census) and is located within the 16th-largest metro area in the United States out of 384. A merge to the City Council page is nonsensical. KidAd (💬💬) 20:18, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Your welcome ;) What's nonsensical about a merge? She still has to pass the notability guidelines whatever your opinion of the legislative body shes a part of is and she doesn't. The only only article specifically about her has to do with her house. There isn't even a bio piece or anything about her work as legislator outside of the George Floyd thing. Which barely even has anything to do with her. Essentially the article is "this lady is a city council member, her house cost less then she thought it would, and the Minneapolis City Council announce the intent to disband the police." BTW, they didn't even vote to do. They just announced the intent to and the articles about it just have her name. Nothing else. Not even her opinion on it. Except the New York Times article, but it only has a single sentence from her. That's the definition of not having in-depth coverage and not being notable. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:28, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
She is notable for being a city council member. You've voted, so let the AfD run its course and pipe down. KidAd (💬💬) 20:31, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the sourcing is nowhere near passing GNG. The article does not pass the strong sourcing requirements for local politicians and should be scapped.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:21, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep. Members of the Minneapolis City Council are notable. Per Common outcomes for politicians, municipal council members of large cities are generally notable. Also, a Google news search shows numerous articles about her city council actions as the officer of what is probably the most watched major city council in the United States right now. I don't think it's a coincidence that one of the council members who voted against reallocating police funds and against firing the MPD public information officer is now facing a deletion. Not having a Wikipedia article doesn't eliminate her from the City Council. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mpen320 (talkcontribs)
As you have now made a bad faith assumption on my actions I do feel the need to reply to this. I have no political leaning one way or the other on this article and I don't even live in the US. I have read the Common outcomes for politicians and as it says "generally" and "tend" to because this isn't policy, as stated at the top of the page, but a document which has put some of the more common outcomes have been in the past. There is still some expectation that they even partially meet WP:GNG so far there has been no proof that anyone outside of council vote report has ever taken notice of the subject. I think we can all agree she does not meet WP:NPOL as that one is much clearer. Please feel free to discuss the policy and merits of the article but please do not assume political motivations of other editors. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 05:26, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Common outcomes are a form of consensus and I can point out recent events that may have influenced you to choose this specific article instead of proposing in a discussion why ALL council members should be deleted.--Mpen320 (talk) 18:03, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Personally of course I think those votes were wise, I also am unconvinced that the defund the police non-sense will in the end be anything more than grandstanding. They have no alternate method, and are only really committed to a year of exploration. At some point the fact their stupid plans will just lead to more crime will force them to abandoned them. I say this writting within 10 blocks of ground zero of the 1967 riot of Detroit, a place that still has not recovered from the stupid actions of people who wanted to be able to carry on the illegal sale of alcohol, including the sale of alcohol to minors, in peace. However I am unconvinced that most of the members of a city council in any city are actually notable. You need coverage, and that is lacking.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:17, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep City councillor for a major US city, in particular one that's receiving much press. City council members for major cities are often notable. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 00:33, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I am sorely tempted to close this as "delete" because the arguments to keep are so poor. POLOUTCOMES is not a notability guideline, it is simply a rough heuristic. The relevant guidelines are GNG and NPOL, and no evidence has been provided that the subject of this article meets either. Indeed, local politicians are specifically mentioned in NPOL as requiring substantive coverage to be considered notable, and so arguments that they are notable based on their office carry little weight.

  • Comment. If Lisa Goodman is somehow not notable, then we would be better served by having a conversation about why members of the Minneapolis City Council are not notable. There are thirty-nine pages in Category:Minneapolis City Council members and most of them have only held the local office that Goodman is apparently, suddenly not notable for holding. Taking this one off approach to Minneapolis City Council members seems counterproductive.--Mpen320 (talk) 21:43, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. @Vanamonde93: Why is it that when you want to delete an article you can just go "Not GNG" with no elaboration on why the existing sources fail, but if you want to keep an article you have to provide some grand soliloquy as to why it should stay? How are the keep arguments any weaker than the delete arguments?--Mpen320 (talk) 21:43, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mpen320: That's because it's impossible to prove an absence of coverage, only a presence. Those arguing to keep need to provide evidence that the subject meets GNG (or NPOL, or another notability standard). If such evidence is prvided, the onus is then on those arguing to delete to demonstrate why that evidence isn't valid. At the moment, no evidence of notability has been provided in the AfD; the closer cannot be expected to check all the sources in the article. If the sources there are sufficient, that should be stated here, with quotes if necessary. Vanamonde (Talk) 22:15, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @Vanamonde93: How am I suppose to improve the article to demonstrate GNG if the nominator who proposes deletion provides no specifics as to how the sources fail to show GNG. Did they fail because they might be considered local? Did they fail because one might be considered primary? Even outside of my belief this is a bad faith nomination based on her recent votes, there is no way to defend their claim beyond "she's a long time councilwoman from one of the largest cities in the country," without further guidance from the nominator. Without saying "The sources are primary and therefore fail GNG," the argument is no stronger than "there are other Minneapolis council member articles."--Mpen320 (talk) 23:37, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mpen320: Intentionally or otherwise, that's a leading question which I'm not going to answer directly. I will confine myself to saying that to meet GNG the coverage needs to be substantive in multiple, independent, reliable sources, and that each piece of coverage counting towards GNG needs to meet all of those criteria.

I haven't gone looking for sources myself, but the responses were pretty clear, and I've waited a week to decide whether to post this, and in the meantime the sources didn't get much better, even under pressure. The nomination and the delete/redirect !votes make the only assertion that really counts for notability, which is WP:SIGCOV. In contrast, the keep !votes are ugly business:
    1. First, a basic invalid WP:OTHERSTUFF claim, then mutated into an implication that WP:POLOUTCOMES matters instead of WP:NPOL (actual guidelines) or WP:GNG; then, when actual guidelines are pointed out, simply repeating the first claim instead; then when someone unilaterally tries to compromise, they get a sarcastic bully taunt of "Thanks for the op-ed wall of text.", later followed by a false accusation that the other person started the sarcasm first, followed by another taunt that the other person has said enough and should stop contributing.
    2. Second keep !vote, same claim of WP:POLOUTCOMES, but at least there's a loose attempt to address WP:N with "Google news search shows numerous articles about her city council actions". Too bad that's followed immediately by what appears to be a racially-tinged conspiracy broadside against anyone who agrees with the nomination — and in all-bold text at that.
In summary, the deletion explanations are on point, and the keep explanations look more like WP:NPA violations by newbie WP:SPA fanboys who think there's a conspiracy to suppress their friend's up-and-coming band for playing music too cool for the establishment. I actually looked at the history page for this AfD because I couldn't believe that two editors with 5-digit edit counts were responding like that. At least one of them is normally level-headed, so I'm going to be nice and assume that there's just a bad moon and people have been indoors too long this year. But since someone brought up "outcomes", I'm pointing out that rancid keep !votes like that almost always indicate an article going down in flames. So it's time to either point out specific, significant biographical coverage about the person, not just council votes, in independent sources that are not routine/mandatory or merely local interest coverage, or it's a delete. And, by the way, just in case there's WP:POINTY griping in later city council AfDs: The same policies and guidelines apply to any related/similar article with the same disposition. --Closeapple (talk) 18:35, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relax. I don't see what your problem is. If you want sources, here are some: [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]. Not all of the keep votes are frivolous. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 12:38, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
To speak to these references, the first is a personal blog without any evidence of editorial oversight and does not help to establish notability. The second is a reliable source, but I would argue this argument about her assessment on her property would not reach any level notability as only one paper seemed to have written about it. Third is routine local political coverage and is not primarily about Goodman. The 4th and 5th ref is a newsletter and not considered reliable for notability. The 6th reference is a press release, not considered reliable for notability. The last reference is considered reliable but it was 9 years prior to only other reliable source listed and a completely different issue. I still don't see anything that help her meet the threshold for WP:GNG or WP:NPOL as none is really any sort of significant coverage on her beyond a couple single events several years apart. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 04:42, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Wow, I agree that the keep proponents are going overboard. First off, WP:OUTCOMES starts with:

    This page summarizes what some editors believe are the typical outcomes of past AfD discussions for some commonly nominated subjects. This page is not a policy or guideline, and previous outcomes do not bind future ones because consensus can change. The community's actual notability guidelines are listed in the template at the right. Notability always requires verifiable evidence, and all articles on all subjects are kept or deleted on the basis of sources showing their notability, not their subjective importance or relationship to something else. All articles should be evaluated individually on their merits and their ability to conform to standard content policies.

    Secondly, it's damn bad faith to screech that people "only want to delete her because she's on the council." Strange though it might appear, there are actually editors on Wikipedia who vote in deletion discussions on the merits of the argument. If Goodman's vote was in the news because of the Floyd incident, and that's where significant coverage of Goodman (as opposed to just of her vote) came from, then that's a BLP1E issue and still a notability fail.

The article was created due to the subject's marriage with one of the nephews of the Belgian king. The subject attracts virtually no press coverage and apparently does not even bear the title princess of Belgium.

  • Delete. The Vanity Fair story cited three times doesn't even mention her actual name--just a brief mention of "Ettore's daughter Lili". The other citations are to Twitter and Facebook, which clearly aren't reliable, and to a few newspaper lifestyle sections that have a paragraph on the couple.

The result was delete. A close call, but in the end a fairly convincing consensus.

1- As his works are there in Bollywood mainstream movies which makes him eligible enough to have an Article on Wiki.

  • Delete as per my original statements at DRV and elsewhere. Praxidicae (talk) 13:16, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify or failing that, keep. Verma has clearly had a hand in making a number of notable films, and has produced a number of records, and has been discussed at some length in a number of sources. The real question is the quality and reliability of the sources, and whether the movie participation was sufficient to qualify him for an article under NACTOR. I rather suspect that he is in fact notable by Wikipedia rules, but I am not sufficiently aware of who is who in the Indian news market to be confident on the reliability of the sources now cited. Thuis I would favor moving back to draft and asking for an improvement of source quality. Praxidicae argued in the DRV that most of the sources were not RS. If so that does not show that no better sources are available. The article in The Hindu is clearly an RS with significant coverage.Of course, improvements may happen during the AfD.

  • keep I'm willing to listen, but the (fairly brief but not trivial) references to him in The Diplomat and the Hindu appear to be enough to get him over the GNG bar. Some other sources appear to be press releases and others I can't really evaluate for notability as I don't know the Indian press well. But just what I can evaluate seems like enough. Hobit (talk) 18:23, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The sources are just not good enough in my view and I question their truthfulness. They are all repeating directly what he has sent to them for republication, none of the interviews show any indication of having been initiated by the papers themselves. If what these papers say is true, I should be able to verify that in other sources.
    When someone produces music for movies, their name is mentioned in passing when newspapers discuss the film. That does not happen for Vivek. Also, when someone produces music for movies, they are given credit in the movie's credit list. Now, what happens if you Google these movies and the subject's name? You'd expect to find movie credit websites and short passing newspaper mentions, but you don't. The only sources that show up are these PR pieces. There are only two possible reasons for why the movie production companies would all forget to give credit to Vivek, either he's 1) lying in these interviews or 2) he is a non-notable assistant at Himesh Reshammiya's sound production studio.
    There are no press releases or newspaper discussions about this supposed "BizAsia Music Award" and I cannot verify that it exist.
    Why did the Hindu decide to write about this video having "caught the netizens' eye" when it has 1200 views?
    If he were actually notable, we'd see passing mentions and movie credits, but we don't.
    Thjarkur (talk) 11:28, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thjarkur I definetly agree with your statement that "BizAsia Music Award" seems to be a non notable/existing award as I too failed to find reliable sources on it, But I Disagree with the statement that he is not discussed in Movie credit list, and probably you have confused him as Film producer rather then Record producer.
Secondly- He doesn't seem to be lying because lets say these Interviews can be a lie but his name in the credit be clearly seen in The official Youtube Channel of T-Series (company) where the whole Movie album is officially Launched Like This and This stating Vivek Verma Guitarist at HR Musik Studio, There are many credit mentions about his work on Multiple notable Movies like this from the movie Teraa Surroor and all of these are Himesh Reshammiya's Movies. also see This it does have 136+ Million views on it,
Here see these mentions in passing where newspapers are discussing about his works like This for the movie Happy Hardy and Heer you can check Vivek Verma's name in credit in all of these links, Check This too on Koimoi disscussing about his song Humsafar I found other links as well about his work passing mentions like This and there are many websites as well.
If you check The Hindu's article on him here you can see The head line stating set to release his single ‘Aashiyana’, post lockdown means at that point of time when the article was written the song was not released and I think Its not released yet too because this video is not the song its just the Teaser of the song of 47 seconds.
here also you can check his name in credit on Dailymotion like this, and I guess majorly his name is credited as a Guitarist that is why you failed to get info about him. Thanks Dtt1Talk 13:29, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I could say the Pointer Sisters performed and wrote a song for a commercial, that doesn’t make it acceptable. The IMDB reference made my eyes hurt trying to read it and again all referenced YouTube and also stated he was an assistant to a higher up who was notable.

  • I agree with :@Vanamonde93: without giving any specific reason about those references which does have in depth details about the musician and his work, just voting a Delete doesn't seem to be justifying enough. as I also saw that Þjarkur almost removed all the details from the article, Without any specific reason just stating that they doesn't have verifiable links. and Drmies reverted the edits by user User:Thepilipalasgirl, (although I was about to ask this on Drmies's talk page but after the relist I feel like stating it here only) as can be clearly seen in the history of the article that all his Extended play's (EP) section that his songs like Mai Aur Tu have This reference, Humsafar have This as a verifiable reference. Aashiyaana have this, Udaan have This, Bekhudi (Reprise) have this
and as a guitarist section references also was enough to prove the verifiability of the work see below :
I'm not even going to address the absurdity of using WP or Itunes as sources but is not reliable in the slightest and neither is this nonsense.

  • Dtt1, so you have listed YouTube channels and also iTunes links to download music. It was stated numerous times in the posting as to why people are stating their opinion and what they are referencing. I myself am unable to find much that would allow him to be notable as his work is nothing that is notable and does not meet the numerous classifications as others have put forth above. For everyone to constantly repeat the same thing gets tiring. Can you please provide valid references that are acceptable and not user made or just a passing mention of him and are not interviews.

  • Let me just reiterate for a billionth time and my 3rd or 4th delete vote on this subject, where I've also given analysis of the sources, I strongly believe this should be deleted. It is nothing more than self promotion, including the sources. This is a piece by a guest author for StoriesAsia but it's not even primarily about Vivek Verma. Kathmandu Tribune like many others engages in pay for publication. There is no author on this, there is no evidence it was published by their editorial staff and I cannot express to you how easily it is to pay someone a measly sum of money to publish a puff piece about you but even if it is somehow miraculously by their editorial staff, it's nothing more than a gossip blog equivalent with two sentences to say "HBD!" An interview and thus not independent. Written by their "news desk" with no author, a good indicator it's not independent and is a PR. Simply not a reliable source. An iMDb equivalent listing. Not a reliable source, "Team Newsable" is basically a republishing service. This is basically the only okay source, so that says a lot about the rest. Not rs... a 5 sentence puff piece Praxidicae (talk) 18:37, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lol same as Vanamonde93 mentioned, Feels like a broken record with this subject! undoubtedly Praxidicae's Knowledge for the Wikipedia and analysis for the sources are appreciable, But as Vanamonde93 demanded more substantive analysis of the sources provided, I would love to again represent my version of analysis where Vivek Verma doesn't seem to be failing WP:MUSICBIO per Wikipedia:Notability.
As per Point number 10 in WP:MUSICBIO, He Has been the part of notable compilation album of movies like Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, Aap Se Mausiiquii, Happy Hardy and Heer etc, for credits Check This and my comment above.
No level 2 header please! ——Serial 15:41, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
Now lets analyse the sources -
  • The Diplomat- here This which Praxidicae mentioned as "not even primarily about Vivek Verma" is Actually an article (If you read the whole) on the The Rise of Indie Music in India as headlined where they have discussed about different music people from India like Darshan Raval, Gajendra Verma and Vivek Verma, where its in Depth mentioned about Vivek too with other Artists. Secondly stating it a 'Guest Post' would not make any sense as It is not, You can check the Coverage by that Author Here No evidence of him as a Guest Post.

Now Check the second In Depth source on The Diplomat, which is This, The Complete Article is on Vivek Verma.

  • The Hindu- This link Here is undoubtedly a reliable one from The Hindu.
  • The Times of India- As Times of India doesn't have a clear consensus regarding its Reliability, but some of them consider it Notable and that depends on Case to Case scenario, Here This Link from TOI which is a Primary Source, can be considered acceptable as per WP:PRIMARYNOTBAD because this is just not the only references about his debut in Dhollywood, there are other sources available too like This which clearly states that this is not a Puff piece.
  • Kathmandu Tribune- though this website has a partnership with Deutsche Welle it is slightly considered reliable as per This Discussion, although I am not much sure about it but as stated above that This source has no Author to it, I failed to find that, It does have an Author to it.
  • Zee News- In India Zee, Abp these are the few regional most reliable news sources, Since Regional News are at the verge of growth in India, It is considered as acceptable till some extinct because like This link Here are sometimes written By Their News Desks for Instance check This link it is about today's ceremony done by Narendra Modi in Ram Mandir, Ayodhya, it too doesn't have any author and written by News Desk, but we cant say that its a puff piece either.
  • Millennium post- This link Here, Can't say much about it as no such evidence available of the reliability of the source.
  • Bollywood Hungama- considered as reliable for Bollywood related news, But not sure about This link here as Praxidicae said seems like some directory or IMDB.
  • Asianet News- Asianet is Popular In india as a Television Channel, But being popular is not Notability, Also I don't Know much about its News source reliability much, The link is Here
  • Network18 Group- is again a very reliable source basically topics which are based in India, and since This source is not much brief but it is in their Music Section,It seems strong to me where it indicates the authenticity of the source on an artist from an RS.

Keeping the above in Mind on an Overall basis I would stick to my vote as Keep or if failed Weak Keep. Thanks --Dtt1Talk 15:32, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Paid editing puff piece. Sources are inadequate: 1. No byline, not an RS, govt website. 2. 1 mention does not meet rs or gng 3. Not about him but an attempt by his foundation to break a record 4. I can't get 4 to open 5. Mention. Not about subject. A single line. No byline. Not clear RS and reads like a press release 6. Link goes to main page so no detail of subject 7. Report of a press conference. No evidence of independent commentary so cannot count to rs 8. Reprinted press release with absolutely no effort to pretend its an independent article. No bio data.

Spite to the incredible amount of sources, few go further passing mention and none is a deep coverage. They are mostly passing mentions and those which are not come from his own web page or are just a very few lines long (5 to 6 lines. not deep coverage). Considering that, not being independent or third party, interviews have a small weight into establishing notability (and the interviews included in the sources are not on notable media) here there is nothing that can establish notability. Plus, this article is highly promotional with over abundance of trivial information. This is the second time I nominate this article so I think it is fair to ping anybody who last time debate it. @Gleeanon409: , @Johnpacklambert: , @Genericusername57: , @Phil Bridger: , @Zaathras: , @Gene93k: , @Acousmana: .

  • Keep: One-Handed History: The Eroto-Politics of Gay Male Video Pornography has significant coverage; it looks like there are several pages specifically devoted to Slater's approach to safer sex in his films. "The Sound of Sex" from Out magazine looks like a magazine article about Slater's use of music in his films. The link is an archive of Slater's website, but Slater was reprinting interviews and articles from other publications. I believe that this demonstrates notability. Alejandro's concern that the article has too much trivial detail can be fixed through normal editing, and doesn't need a deletion discussion. — Toughpigs (talk) 17:36, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

what do I need to look closer? OUT Magazine is a respected LGBT world wide magazine (out.com, https://www.out.com/), while https://outpersonals.com/ is a not reliable paying web site. Bay Area Reporter is a local and niche news paper. Plus, that is not at all a deep coverage. PS. I asked to the previous closer before nominating again. thank you. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 18:32, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not going to fight about OutPersonals — I thought they were connected, but if not, then don't worry about it. But: the Bay Area Reporter is a historically important and well-respected LGBT newspaper; it's based in the San Francisco area but was influential far beyond that. If the Bay Area Reporter is "niche", then so is Out Magazine, because they target the same LGBT audience. — Toughpigs (talk) 18:42, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, and procedural close, nom is currently at ANI where their poor judgement at targeting certain gay porn bios is discussed. All apparently in some vendetta over Carlo Masi.
    The latest AfD for this article closed five weeks ago. Despite noms assertions the collected references produced a good article, and a handful of sources indeed go into the subject with depth. Gleeanon409 (talk) 17:42, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Your assessment as a good article was disputed in the first AfD (which closed as no consensus). There is a genuine good faith difference of opinion here. Reopening the debate without new facts doesn't change things. As noted in other AfD debates, the nominator is engaged in a housecleaning. So far, more non-notable articles have been deleted than notable ones kept. That doesn't look like a vendetta to me. • Gene93k (talk) 19:10, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AlejandroLeloirRey I’m really sorry but this is clearly another inappropriate nomination. AfD is not cleanup, and there’s no deadline.

@Cardiffbear88: saying "another" makes it sounds like it happens often when i have successfully nominated about 80% of the time. If u read carefully u shall see that the reasons for my nomination are not housecleaning or needs for re-writing this comment had nothing to do with the nomination reason which (once again) u can read above. Since clearly this article will be kept, even though there are no proper sources, at least I hope someone will write it in a form more suitable for an enciclopedia. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 13:56, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
AlejandroLeloirRey there are several suitable sources already in the article, as all voters so far have indicated. The fact that you cannot see that - or refuse to see that this is a mistaken nomination - indicates you should probably go and reread WP:RS before making any further nominations. I have sympathy for editors when they make a genuine mistake, when it’s unfair for other editors to pile on, but this is clearly not the case here where you seem unable to see why everyone is voting Keep. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 14:03, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
the whole world said that it was the sun to spin around the earth... still the only one to say the opposite was the right one. anyway, I am not trying anymore to convince anybody but I can still hope that someone of good will will write this article in a more suitable stile. for the future nominations, there are a few, very few porn bios that should be check out and may be be nominated but they are few and I lost enthusiasm for housecleaning the porn bio so I suppose i will not be nominating soon again... I suppose... --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 16:39, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete with fire, and per WP:TNT. The biography here appears to be mostly fictive. Most of the substantive sources appear to be self-promotional interviews that seem to be entirely unfactchecked. The problems literally begin with the article's first words: none of the cited sources identify the subject's birthname/real name, and a review of sources indicates that the supposed birthname is simply the first name the subject was credited under, in a field where pseudonyms are the norm. Slater claims that his band "with the Talking Heads when they first played at CBGB's", but that gig is well-documented, the Heads opened for the Ramones, and I have found no accounts of that night mentioning any other bands. Slater claims that his "first musical, Zoundz, was produced off-Broadway and later at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts", but the Lortel Archive (Internet Off Broadway Database) shows no production of that title (or even including the word in the title).[18] The article is riddled with unsupported claims or unverifiable claims sourced to the subject himself, such as entering college at age 15 and attending a seriesof notable prep schools "on strait [sic] scholarships". This may be the most promotional, least credible BLP I've ever seen on Wikipedia, and is so atrocious it should be immediately removed from public view. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

      • I think that Hullaballoo Wolfowitz has a point, and the article should be trimmed and edited down. If we can't verify Zoundz, for example, it would be good to investigate that some more. Unfortunately, I think this kind of thing happens when a notable article is put up for deletion twice in a short amount of time. People who believe that that the subject is notable based on the existing text are encouraged to go and find more sources, leading to good-faith refbombing. Voting TNT encourages more scrambling to find more sources, which at this point won't make the article any better. — Toughpigs (talk) 15:13, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
no, I am sorry but all those crappy sources where pulled out the first time the article was nominated (before there was hardly any source at all). I can't see any trimming possible as there are no reliable sources at all and no a signle relevant fact in the article is supported by a reasonable independent source. the only reasonable source is One-Handed History: The Eroto-Politics of Gay Male Video Pornography but it doesn't contain any cover of the subject , it rather reports a few pages with the subject point of view about safe sex into porn. what I think of the other sources is in the reasons i gave for the nomination. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 15:25, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • We can only go where reliable sources lead. I see zero evidence Slater has lied or deceived about his past, or even exaggerated facts to make his arguably under-reported life more interesting. I find the opposite is likely true, he doesn’t have ever seemed to take advantage of many opportunities for free publicity, doesn’t seem to have ever had a publicist, and never seems to have taken of Raging Stallion’s in-house team to hype his career or even his dozens of movie soundtracks.
          If we have evidence of mistakes, and not from original research but from reliable sourcing, then we can address them. For instance it’s common for a bigger band to have, or allow, multiple smaller acts to warm up the crowd before they perform. It’s completely unsurprising that they are not all documented, at all. Gleeanon409 (talk) 15:57, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
so, basically u r telling us that unless there are evidence that they are lying we should (or can) base bios entirely on what people say about them-self, like it happens in this case. ps when Hullaballoo Wolfowitz tells u stuff like he did facts check and there is no correspondence with the facts reported in the official media than u have that the subject of the bio has very much likely lied about that fact and if he lied about one thing... --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 16:59, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think that unfortunately this discussion is tainted by the fact that it's happening on AfD. When Alejandro says "if he lied about one thing...", he's not talking about ensuring accuracy in the article; he's suggesting that everything is a lie and therefore the page should be deleted. When Gleeanon409 is defending these sources, it's also in service of keeping the article. I think that this conversation should happen, but it should happen on the article talk page after the AfD is over. That way, we can have a reasonable, good-faith discussion about what to include and what not to include. — Toughpigs (talk) 17:06, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

At first glance, it may just seem like a short article that just needs a major revamp. However, upon further inspection, it appears it is written by a singular user who is also Kutu Debbarma himself. Of course this is strongly discouraged by Wikipedia. Also, when I did a quick google search for him, I couldn't find any articles, videos, or anything else about him. I had to go onto YouTube and search for him, when I realized he was just some Youtuber.

    • The profile from 16×9 (here), and the web short from National Post (here), include explanations of Leiningen's full title and style, and his potential position in the line of succession, and his relation to so-called prominent ancestors. These items are also explained briefly in Eilers's biographical dictionaries on the Victorian descendants.
    • Reitwiesner's dated chart covers the line of succession, which was based on earlier work of historians A. C. Addington and Daniel A. Willis. The same chart was the basis for the pastel succession charts shown in the 16x9 profile. It appeared in Parade magazine in the San Antonio market late-2012, other magazines elsewhere.
    • Also, German nobiliary titles and styles are inherited by legitimate male-line descendants. Therefore, Leiningen is a Prince from Leiningen (Prinz zu Leiningen), not the Prince of Leiningen (Fürst zu Leiningen). Leiningen explain's this—somewhat—in the web short from the Post. Therefore, his daughters would be Princesses of Leiningen (Prinzessin zu Leiningen).
    • Following conventions since 1919, Leiningen's name would be recorded as Leiningen, Hermann Friedrich Fernando Roland Prinz zu if he naturalized as a German citizen, if he hasn't already.
  • That he is in the line of succession is sourced; that he follows a Princess Juliana of Leiningen is not. Prinz Hermann Friedrich Fernando Roland zu Leiningen was presented as his full name, which is dubious and not verified. We should not introduce him or his family as prince or princesses because those are neither their legal titles nor what they normally call themselves.

  • leaning keep Anyone my age in the US is familiar with the brand, and there is still considerable nostalgia for the Burry-made GS cookies. Anyway, I find lots of hits in industry journals that mention them. It puzzles me that it appears to be somewhat difficult to document them, so I can't give this an unqualified keep, but back in the day this was a major US brand, and I'm hard-pressed to admit to a lack of notability.

  • They are one of the companies that make Girl Scout Cookies. Been baking cookies and such for over a hundred years. Some say it was acquired by George Weston Limited but not sure about that. I see the contact information on their website, so I'm going to ask them some questions. Dream Focus 22:13, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment It took a long time, but I've tracked down just about the whole history of the brand. There's fairly consistent coverage from the early 1940s until 1990, just under different names. Highlights include the company being listed on the American Stock Exchange until it's purchase by Burry Foods in '62, and getting a good deal of (admittedly semi-routine) coverage in The New York Times. The founder got an obit in the NYT and an Associated Press one that was pretty well publicized, and those suggest that if a person was noted for their association with the company, the company may be too. Similarly, Prominent Families of New Jersey shouldn't just be discarded as there's some coverage of the company. There's a decent paper trail following the aquisitions and sale of the company, and some coverage under each name (sources are in the article). It's not a clear-cut case, but I'll be back to cast a vote soon -- Eddie891 Talk Work 00:17, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This article is a strong keep based on the WP:SIGCOV. I searched old newsprint and found that the company is very notable. The girl scout cookies were most interesting to me-Plantation cookies? Would that name make it in 2020?...I was looking for my favorite...the lemonades - Check out this link of 1938 era GS cookies.

  • Merge or Redirect to Quaker Oats Company. I'm going to have to strongly go against the keep votes here and the assertions that this now passes WP:SIGCOV. The first most cited source is primary and the second most cited is about the founder of the company dying. Three more seem to be about the same thing. One of which is an extremely brief newspaper obituary. While another source is a blog entry and the last source is an brief excerpt from one of their commercials about their "slow baking process." None of those sources pass WP:SIGCOV or WP:NCORP and it's completely ridiculous to claim that they do. All that's left if you leave out those sources is like 2 articles about them being acquired by Quaker Oats Company. Which is not enough on it's own as a subject, let alone in number of sources or their depth, to say the company is notable enough for an article. Companies are acquired all the time and there's usually nothing notable about it. I'd be totally fine with it being merged or redirected to Quaker Oats Company though, but either option would be extremely generous. --Adamant1 (talk) 05:08, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Created at my suggestion as a longstanding red link at Darwinius. There's been a lot of interest in his work, for example [] have in the news, not without controversy. He won the first Friedrich von Alberti Award in 1998, and has written at least one book, though it got a rather dismissive review from National Geographic. His work was prominent, but so far I've not found personal details – is that a major issue? . . dave souza, talk 13:21, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    I am still looking for evidence that he meets the criteria of WP:NPROF. There is that Friedrich von Alberti Award.[24]. but NPROF specifies "The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level." Not sure that an award from 20 quarry companies qualifies as "a highly prestigious academic award". --Guy Macon (talk) 14:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Does the book meet the requirements of WP:NBOOK? If so, we could create a page for the book and redirect this page to it. --Guy Macon (talk) 14:35, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    The BBC source[25] and the Nature source[26] mention him in passing, and thus fail to meet the "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" criteria of WP:GNG. The National Geographic source[27] is about Franzen. Does WP:BIO1E apply? --Guy Macon (talk) 14:48, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep May have been created to hammer on a point, but believing that Franzen and Cédric d'Udekem d'Acoz fall into the same notability bracket rather demonstrates that the article creator lacks the discernment to assess notability as per WP:NPROF. Franzen isn't wildly notable, but he does meet our criteria. He has 18 years as department head at the Senckenberg Institute (we need a better article on that - de:Senckenberg Forschungsinstitut has all the goods). The Friedrich-von-Alberti-Preis may not be the Fields Medal, but it is a prestigious 10k Euro award. Among described species, Darwinius is a big deal in terms of primate systematics that got a lot of mainstream coverage (note the difference to "he described some species"). He has six taxa named in his honor (note the difference to "he named them himself"). This is an accomplished scientist with a lifelong body of work that makes him notable. - Sourcing could be better, but since this is a direct adaptation of the German article, inline cites are at a premium as usual. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 14:38, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    If I see citations to reliable secondary sources establishing the above added to the article, I would be strongly inclined to withdraw this AfD. --Guy Macon (talk) 14:52, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There are several high-calibre reviews of his last book (The Rise of Horses: 55 Million Years of Evolution): J Mam Evol, Quart R Biol, J Vert Pal. The bulk of his output seems to have been articles and chapters, not separate books. --Elmidae (talk · contribs)
Sourcing is the tricky bit here. My assessment of his scientific career suggests a WP:NPROF crit #1 pass here - this is alluded to in the book reviews. But the best source for this kind of overall judgement are usually obituaries, of which there are two:
  • Ottmar Kullmer, Stephan Schaal: In memoriam Jens Lorenz Franzen. In: Senckenberg Natur Forschung Museum. Band 149, Nr. 1-3, 2019, S. 42 [28].
  • Thorsten Wenzel: Der Herr der Urpferde. In: Senckenberg. Natur, Forschung, Museum. Band 147, Nr. 05/06 2017, S. 170–172 (just realized this can't be an obituary - pre-death :) Apparently an on-person piece then)
Unfortunately they have both been published in a jealously paywalled scientific society journal (of the kind that ain't popping up on SciHub) and it's unlikely that anyone here will get access to them. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 20:37, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to have been an event that got a whole lot of coverage for about a month in May 2003. There is extensive coverage from that time, mostly consisting of long articles in British publications and shorter global articles. See all the coverage I found: The Times (May 3, 2003) The Telegraph (May 25, 2003) South China Morning Press (seems to be the same as a Rueters report, May 7, 2003)The Telegraph, (May 11, 2003). There are a few other dead-links, but that about sums it up. So, back in 2004 this would have seemed to be clearly notable. However, with the benefit of time (16 years of it!) it has become clear that this is not the case. One of the fundamental criteria of an event being considered notable is that it has a lasting effect and a duration of coverage that extends beyond a typical news cycle. Since May 2003, I have found only a BBC 'fun stuff' interview that is dated three weeks after the story, and about a page in New Century, Same Shit: The First Decade, a book that is a satire of the 2000s, not exactly the sort of coverage I would consider indicative of notability. Any other coverage has essentially dried up, from what I found after fairly extensive searching. Somewhat of a borderline case, given the rather in-depth coverage in major UK newspapers, but notable topics have sustained coverage that is beyond just a burst of news coverage, and that does not appear to be the case here.

  • Delete - 'event' without lasting significance. Interviews do not establish notability, but there are newspaper articles on this as your ample research shows. Ultimately this just appears to be another 'viral prank' (of sorts) - and we cannot have an article for everything that goes viral. I would say it could be included on List of hoaxes. Also, I know this is not relevant to whether the article should be kept, but on the issue of lasting significance, in the past 5 years, this article has averaged 55 views a month and in that same period only had 8 edits. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 14:02, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Non-notable, in the sense of not worthy of an article, even with some RS references. I actually remember this one; I wouldn't say it was big news even at the time (a silly prank more than a hoax?), and that was then.

a bunch of non notable daemons, your average software related WP:LISTCRUFT and WP:NOR. I would also support redirecting but thus far ahs been contested.

Times have more than changed since 2007 and "comparisons" of lists are WP:NOR.

  • Delete: Fails the GNG, NOR and WP:SYNTH. Everything on the page is "likely" well documented? Either it is (in which case the article is about a hundred source shy) or it isn't, in which case the article creator just made it all up, and we've got a WP:NFT violation to boot. That being said, being someone who was active at AfD from 2005 onward, a lot of garbage decisions were made then that had far less to do with policy than with WP:ILIKEIT, WP:ITSUSEFUL, WP:ITEXISTS and other similar crackpot notions.

  • Delete This is really too much of a product listing. Notice how practically every "comparison of..." article is composed of almost all bluelinked material - i.e., entries that are have been judged notable on their own merits? E.g. the two See Also links on that very page, Comparison of instant messaging protocols and Comparison of Internet Relay Chat clients. Or picking another format at random, Comparison of programming languages (list comprehension). That ensures that we don't end up with product listings that are mostly sourced to their own promo material. AKA spam bait. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 02:44, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. My rationale for keeping it is WP:CLN and WP:SUMMARY. Its an underdeveloped part of Wikipedia, but it is an area that has a great deal of potential. This list could be a building block towards this. Per WP:CLN: "Consider that lists may include features not available to categories, and building a rudimentary list of links is a useful step in improving a list. Deleting these rudimentary lists is a waste of these building blocks". This is far more than a rudimentary list of links, which in my mind makes it all the more reasonable to keep it as a good building block on which more can be created. I also believe WP:SUMMARY is relevant here. A common pattern on Wikipedia is Summary Article/List >> Group Article/List >> Detailed Article; this would be a good building block at the top of that chain.   // Timothy :: talk  17:38, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please refer Territorial disputes of India and Nepal. Meanwhile, I declear that I am from Nepal but I would have no objection for deletion had it been a GNG or other issues.

NN blog/podcast, fails the GNG and WP:WEBCRIT. No significant coverage in reliable sources found, and the article is completely unsourced. No evidence that the awards claimed were actually awarded. Very promotional in tone. Definite COI issues: most of the edits to the article have been by a string of SPAs for whom working on this article is their sole Wikipedia activity, one with the same name as this podcast's host.

Prod was removed with the edit summary "My before shows this is notable...however it needs refs. I will put it on watch and start later." My before shows that it is not notable; if one actually looks at the hits, the great majority are social media, YouTube links, and generic use of "stuck in the 80s" as a turn of phrase in articles having nothing to do with this blog/podcast. The signal exception is coverage in the Tampa Bay Times, which is extensive ... as well as it may be, since the creator of the blog/cast was a writer FOR the Tampa Bay Times, and the numerous hits are his own mentions of his own podcast. Given the Times's extensive connection with this podcast, none of the coverage in that paper, online or otherwise, qualifies as an independent source.

As far as the deprodder's intent to "put it on watch and start later" goes, sorry, but it's been eleven years. I will be happy to withdraw this nom if the deprodder can produce significant coverage in reliable, third-party, independent sources now, but enough is enough.

  • Reply: Fair enough, let's examine those sources. The first one is not about the subject: it's a brief excerpt of the podcast interviewing someone else = does not support the notability of the subject. The second is a press release = does not support the notability of subject. The third is a piece eliciting the views of thirty readers of the newspaper as to their favorite podcasts, one of which mentions the subject in a single paragraph = casual mention, does not support the notability of the subject. The fourth quotes Spears, among others, but only namedrops his podcast, and the podcast is not otherwise mentioned = does not support the notability of the subject.

    I'm afraid that the bottom line is not WP:ITSIMPORTANT. It's whether there are reliable sources providing significant coverage to the subject. That this podcast has been around a while is not relevant; the potential notability of the podcast's creator is not relevant. If those are the best cites you can find, the answer is clear: this subject is not notable. Ravenswing 02:53, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - per Ravenswing, none of the coverage above is significant independent coverage. There is a new article in the Orlando Sentinel from Aug 3 which is more substantial than the sources above (Florida-produced podcast about the ’80s marks 15 years - archive) but, agreeing with Ravenswing's assessment of the sources above, a single new source isn't enough to bring it past the GNG. -M.Nelson (talk) 09:04, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep There's this recent article in the Tampa Bay Times that seems to be substantial as well. I believe it's a good start for this article to pass WP:GNG. --Deansfa (talk) 20:49, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • My assertion, which I give in the nomination, is that the coverage this podcast has received in the Tampa Bay Times is all disqualified as a non-independent source, as the creator of the podcast was a writer for the Times, and hawked the podcast a number of times under his byline. (This quite aside from that this is the same piece word-for-word as the one M.Nelson cites. Ravenswing 06:52, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Steve Spears left the Tampa Bay Times 8 years ago. We can't eternally accuse this newspaper to be biased because he was, at some point in his career, an editor there. I agree with you that old Tampa Bay Times' articles may be disqualified, but this specific one (written by someone not related to this podcast) is IMO independent of the subject. And I don't see where is the word-to-word similarity. They definitely cover the same topic, but that's all. --Deansfa (talk) 16:11, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article, created in 2007, has remained a stub. This is because it is very general in form, suspected I create to match the main headings on some templates; there is not much at all linking together the many different cancers, and because of this, it does not provide useful value as an article. Readers are better directed to specific subarticles than this overly broad article. Tom (LT) (talk) 08:51, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    • To clarify, I think this article is about a topic that is not encyclopedic or notable. It is useful as a category for urologic and genital neoplasms but not useful as an article. --Tom (LT) (talk) 14:50, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. There are abundant Ghits on the term. Here's a sample. Many variations on the phrase such as "genitourinary" instead of urogenital, and "cancer" or "malignancy" or "carcinoma" instead of neoplasm, suggest even more supporting sources to be found. So, the topic is verifiable and notable. The nom is onto something in that similar summary-level articles such as Nervous system neoplasm and Digestive system neoplasm seem to have been created as organizational aids, pointing from general topographical descriptions to the more extensive detail in those templates. I'm not sure that's a bad thing. If we assume the template {{Tumors}} is logically organized and complete, these should stay. --Lockley (talk) 07:01, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Soft Delete This is too broad, per the nomination obviously there is a concept of urogenital tumours, but it seems to be too vague.

  • Keep Honestly, this seems fine to me. It's basically a dab-plus; reader follows the term and is presented with the finer categories to choose from.

  • Keep, but turn into a disambiguation page - as Elmidae says, this is a "dab-plus" - one sentence defining the term, then a disambiguation to the more specific articles.

  • Delete - Non-notable band. Couldn't find anything besides social media pages, streaming service entries, concert sites, trivial mentions/namechecks and stuff where the words are separated. Their claim to fame is that one of their songs appeared in a notable video game - but of course that does not make the band notable. Also, the article itself is very confusing to me; the first sentence is "The Vanity Plan was an American rock band..." then the infobox states that they are still active ("2006-present"). This, of course, can be cleaned up (based on reliable sources, not Last.fm and all that stuff) but that's the least of the problems here. The main issue is that this band is simply not notable.

  • Comment. Searching Google Scholar for the name Arto Lahti finds some reasonably well cited papers on allergic reactions in dermatology. I think these must be by someone else with the same name. If there are citations to publications by the subject of the nominated article, they're too far down to pass WP:PROF#C1.

  • Keep Not just because of him being a professor, but due to his run as an independent candidate in the 2006 Finnish presidential election (although the vote result was very poor for him). For some reason, my Google search really bog downs results as old as 2005-06, but there certainly were in-depth articles about him in the largest Finnish newspapers when he ran for president: [32][33].

This brewery doesn't seem to be notable. The article only cites two sources, one of which is a primary source and the other seems to only be a trivial mention in a book about prohibition.

The masters thesis I don't think it qualifies for notability. As a reminder, "significant" doesn't mean volume of text, rather significance of what is being said in terms of indicating notability.

  • Delete, even post-HEY, as not meeting NCORP. Looking at this version of the article: the contemporaneous newspaper sources are primary (and local). The guide books are... well, guide books. It's like saying something is notable because it's in the phone book. The point of a guide book is to be comprehensive... they generally list all, or major, "points of interest" in a city, but being a "point of interest" doesn't make the "point" notable. For example, Abner-Drury Brewery might be included in a list of breweries in Washington DC, but it's not NCORP-notable. The rest of the sources are less-than-one-sentence brief mentions, as far as I can tell. I don't see WP:THREE sources. Also, it didn't exist for very long, so I'm not seeing any independent reason for notability. Lots of breweries came and went in many cities over the years, and you'll find all of them written about in contemporaneous newspapers and guidebooks.

  • Question: It looks like he's played some major roles in the films he's been in. For example, he's mentioned in this review for Yemaali from the Times of India, where he (and his character) are listed in the first paragraph and mentioned again thereafter. His performance is also covered in this Sify review. Then there's this TOI review (and also this Sify review) for Lisaa, where he's mentioned and looks to be one of the main characters of the movie. He's also in this Indiaglitz review and this one from the Deccan Chronicle. He doesn't seem to have been a main character here, but his role seems to have been major enough to warrant mention in multiple film reviews. It looks like all three films he's been in would pass NFILM, so by extension he should pass the first criteria for WP:NACTOR?

  • Comment He would pass WP:Nactor if sources other than film reviews covered him (such as The Times of India, The Hindu).TamilMirchi (talk) 20:34, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • But wouldn't film reviews count as the roles being notable, if he's a major role or major enough to be covered in the review - sometimes even in fair depth? It just seems like with that rationale, an author wouldn't be able to gain notability for reviews of their books. There have been reviews used to establish notability in the past for actors. Is this a relatively new change? ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 03:03, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Notable composer, with substantial (but regrettably paywalled) coverage at Grove Music Online [38], and substantial free coverage at British Music Collection [39]. These are published by Oxford University Press and Sound and Music respectively, which are independent and reliable. GNG is met, and I think this also meets point 6 of WP:COMPOSER. I have not looked through his works, it is possible that points 1 or 2 are also met in this case. I am satisfied based on the sources in the article and a few others[40][41][42][43] that the subject has been convicted and is a fugitive. So, this isn't a matter of "alleged" crimes, there is a criminal conviction. That isn't a basis for notability on its own, but since the subject is otherwise notable, the conviction should be covered in the article. I don't usually assign much weight to whether the subject of an article wants or does not want a Wikipedia article, and I consider that to be even less relevant when the subject's motivation is to hide the fact that they are a sex offender and a fugitive.

This BLP was "weak keep" in a 2010 AFD. Since 2016, this has been tagged for notability. Subject is someone who founded a Canadian marketing agency, and has appeared as a competitor on various game shows. Sourcing is questionable.

  • Sourcing www.baitshoppe.com and Branch Out Clothing are primary sourcing being Starkman's own companies.
  • Television appearances section is mostly sourced with MTV program listings.
  • Other work section is also partially sourced from Branch Out Clothing
  • WP:BLP Sexual assault allegations section. This has been disputed and deleted by IPs, and also by someone who claims to be the real Evan Starkman, who left an edit summary that said in part, "The description of these events rely on sources which do not exist and are meant to smear my name without merit."
