Seems to fail NCORP; not entirely sure about the Malaysian sources, but they don't seem entirely reliable, and even then they don't exceed routine coverage. Aside from that, the article is quite clearly promotional in nature. It also has a volatile edit history with at least one editor repeatedly stating that the company is a Ponzi scheme and with edit warring over whether it is based in Pakistan or Malaysia.

Non notable politician who doesn’t satisfy any of the criterion from WP:NPOL. Being a mere interim president leader for a political party doesn’t confer automatic notability. Sources used in the article are mere announcements of how subject of article has been nominated as interim president. Celestina007 (talk) 22:01, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, without prejudice against recreation if somebody can write and reference something more substantial. To be fair, he isn't interim president of the party, he's interim leader of the party — that is, he's not the person who presides over the party's internal board meetings, he's the person who would be the party's candidate for premier of the province if New Brunswick were to hold an election tomorrow. (But it won't, as it just had one a few months ago that resulted in a majority government for a different party than Thompson's.) But that said, being a party leader is not an automatic notability freebie under WP:NPOL if the person isn't also an actual MLA in the legislature — to actually warrant an article, he would have to show substantive coverage of his work in the role, not just technical verification of his selection. So just being a party leader isn't enough in and of itself — and while the "interim leader" vs. "permanent leader" distinction doesn't have any direct bearing on the notability of a party leader per se, as interim leaders can be genuinely notable, it does tend to tamp down on the depth and volume of coverage that an interim leader actually gets. So he would need to have quite a bit more media coverage than this, enabling us to write something quite a bit more substantial than just "Chris Thompson is a political party leader who exists", before he qualified for a Wikipedia article.

This article makes some claims that would establish notability, but I cannot find credible, independent sources to verify these awards. Some blogs discuss her exhibition work, but none of these appear to provide significant coverage or meet reliable sources guidelines. It does read as if it's a copyvio from somewhere, but imagine it's the artist's own info, so not flagging on that issue StarM 20:00, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete sources I saw in a search led back to either her web site or commercial galleries and venues. GNG and NARTIST fail. Possibly (talk) 20:59, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I might also note that only one of the source in the article (Wildlife magazine?) appears to possibly be independent critical coverage, and it is a dead link. Of the others, one source is from Blogspot, one from wordpress.com and at least one is an event announcement. Possibly (talk) 21:39, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Reply same here @Possibly:. When I first found this a few days ago I thought wow, there's a ton on her background, why is this long-tagged for notability especially with what I anticipated was a full feature, and then I realized there were issues. Shame as that Wildlife one seemed promising. StarM 00:44, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ReplyThe Wildlife Art Magazine was an independent article. It was a very nice multi-page profile about her. That fact doesn't change just because you can't read it online anymore. Netmouse (talk) 17:54, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Reply it is when we can't verify the claim that there was an independent article. There's no proof it actually existed, although I'm AGFing that it did and that's how it landed in the article. My concern with this is since so much was (indirectly) sourced to the artist's own materials, no one involved as actually seen the article. StarM 18:19, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Reply No Proof It actually Existed? Do you mean the article, which someone involved (me) did actually read, or do you mean the magazine? The Wildlife Art Magazine went out of business in 2009, as you can see in this announcement: http://www.natureartists.com/news_events/news.asp?NewsID=1871 It is one main source of external references on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Banovich but I don't see that article being nominated for deletion. I used to also have a link to the Build On Hope website in the references but someone deleted it. Same person appears to have also deleted some in-text references to other organizations she has been part of as "too promotional". You can see a link to them and other organizations at http://www.natureartists.com/artists/artist_biography.asp?ArtistID=1265. Netmouse (talk) 20:37, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Reply no offense intended, Netmouse (talk · contribs) I said I was assuming good faith that it did exist, I have no reason to doubt that you or someone might have seen it. We have no evidence, which is what verifiability is about. Build On Hope does not appear to be the type of external link that belongs in an article. If she is a part of these organizations they are not independent and do not establish notability. An article should not consist of links to organizations, but reliable sources providing in-depth, significant coverage of a subject to establish whether they meet the notability guidelines. As for Banovich, other stuff exists and you're welcome to nominate him for deletion if you believe the sourcing is too thin. That's what we do as volunteers.

  • Comment I have found the source confirming she got the Society of Animal Artists award (see 2005). As she is a member of a number of nature/animal artists' societies (I have found at least 2 apart form the mentioned), there are articles about her on their pages, but these can't be considered independent. But just in case - here they are - 1, 2. Less Unless (talk) 21:25, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Less Unless: Thanks for the links. I checked into them and London is a paying member of all three of those societies, including the "Society of Animal Artists". As such any coverage or prizes emanating from them is basically a member benefit. Possibly (talk) 21:46, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Possibly: Yes, I agree, as I said they are not independent so can't be used to back up the notability. Less Unless (talk) 21:50, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Possibly: I don't necessarily agree, but I am not familiar with this Society. However, the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association gives out the Nebula Awards, yet whether or not you are a member is not considered to reduce the notability of receiving the award. The Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists likewise gives out the Chesley Awards, which is considered a high honor. Similarly the Oscars, etc. It is not common for awards to be given by societies of people particularly interested in the focus of the award? Netmouse (talk) 22:47, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Netmouse: as you said " the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association gives out the Nebula Awards" and "whether or not you are a member is not considered to reduce the notability of receiving the award". In the case of the wildlife conservation societies above, item #1, the prize, is a distinct members-only prize: their site says it is an award "presented to members of the Society of Animal Artists at our Annual Exhibitions". The last two items mentioned above are member pages provided as part of membership, the content of which is controlled by the artist. Possibly (talk) 22:57, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment....I am not sure this is how to respond and contribute to this discussion. However, I'll offer this and can also ,where ever appropiate ,send printed articles to substantiate the facts mentioned on her site. Also I question the "member benefit"mentioned . When an actor wins an academy award or a SAG award- is that a "member benefit"? Paid membership? Both the Society of Animal Artists and Artists for Conservation represent organizations which honor only the best of the membership with awards. Both represent the highest level of wildlife art on the planet,and few organizations or institutions exist for that purpose. The Society of Animal Artists only accepts artists which meet their standards and they honor only the vest of those members. By the way , without paid membership few ,if any,organizations which recognize artistic excellence would exist.

@Possibly: I realized that later while working on the article (that only members are eligible for the award, and that's the difference) - but the Wildlife conservation artists society page does indicate it has 500 members, so an award that only 1 person has won each year for the past 40 years can hardly be described as a "member benefit", since the vast majority of its members will never win it. Netmouse (talk) 18:13, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OK then let's call it a possible member benefit: you still have to be a member to get it. Possibly (talk) 18:23, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The awards are a bit of a red herring, as they are not that important in determining the notability of a subject. It's independent coverage by good sources that count. The fact that you say above that you have a collection of "printed articles to substantiate the facts mentioned" means you may have something to disclose. Please see your talk page. Possibly (talk) 03:54, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Seascience, @Netmouse:, With all due respect, I think what she and her husband have done for animals is admirable. However regarding her work as an artist, there is simply no comparison between an Academy Award and an award from the Society of Animal Artists. Maybe if she received a Guggenheim Fellowship one could make a comparison. Re: press coverage, even if a copy of the multi-page article in Wildlife magazine can be produced, it is not enough to pass NARTIST. Even if an article ran in Artforum magazine, one article might not be enough. I found it interesting how inflated some of the claims are/were (the promotional wording has been somewhat toned-down in the past few days) - there was something like in "2014 she won Best in Show in the most prestigious shows in North America" (paraphrasing mine). This does not even make sense... what, she "won" the Whitney Biennial, or the Carnegie International, or Made in L.A.? No. Her work is represented by a tourist gallery. As far as Art Fairs, they are simply market places, it is not the same as exhibiting at MoMA or LACMA, the National Gallery or the Met. The fact that the article includes that she was "featured in a calendar" simply does not belong in an encyclopedia. Regarding the "Logo for the Sketch for Survival", it was not her logo that raised $200,000, it was the prominent people like Dame Judy Dench and Dame Helen Mirren. Again, this is misleading and does not belong in an encyclopedia article. I am all for niche art genres and outsider artists, other editors here can vouch for that, but the "Quickdraw Competition? No. I apologize if this is direct, but I feel it needs to be said. Netherzone (talk) 21:19, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Obviously I think the subject is notable or I would not have bothered to create an article about her. As I said on the Talk page, I was really impressed by her work when I saw her at an art Fair and have no relationship to her, commercial or otherwise. I haven't been able to do much maintenance in the last decade, but clearly she has continued to be active on an influential and international scale, as a conservationist and artist both. It does look as though someone pasted a bunch of text into the article from another source that was not in wikipedia-appropriate format. I have tried to clean that up a bit and am working on finding references. I'm sure there are plenty in newspapers.com. The "needs citation" line tagged near the top was always based on a statement in the Wildlife Magazine profile of her - I wrote the article before the era of expecting every paragraph to be individually referenced. The lack of external links to this article speaks to me more of this subject area being a hole in what is covered here on Wikipedia than an indication of low notability of this particular person. We should keep the article and build around it instead of insisting on re-instating a complete lack of coverage. I see that one of her partner organizations does have a page, so with a couple weeks of work I think it could be a better, more interlinked article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Netmouse (talk • contribs)
  • Delete I'm often reluctant to contribute to wildlife, watercolor, and other genres of artists who exhibit on entirely different (and insular) circuits. I feel comfortable in this case, for two reasons: 1) none of the awards come close to being the kind that will establish notability: none have their own Wikipedia pages, nor are they even mentioned on pages for organizations. 2) the society in question gives SO MANY awards every year. I'm counting 20 awards for 2019 [1]. And the society has levels/ranks of membership, the second highest of which is for people who have won the Award of Excellence more than five times which means that one award isn't even valued that highly amongst the society. London is in the 3rd rank of membership. Just for reference, the highest rank includes about 15 people, only two of whom have pages here
and of those two, both have works in museum collections, and one of whom had a solo exhibition at the Smithsonian... Theredproject (talk) 10:41, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Reply I see what you mean, but a) to a certain extent, the fact that so many of their highest level artists don't have pages just reinforces my sense that this is information the encyclopedia *ought* to have but is lacking, perhaps because wildlife conservation art fans spend a lot of time traveling the planet and conserving wildlife instead of editing Wikipedia. *shrugs* I don't know. b) I DO know, however, that historically most of the gatekeepers (high level decision-makers in both professional art AND here in Wikipedia have historically been male, and the two artists whose articles you found are both 1. male, and 2. ~30 years older than London. So the fact that their artwork has penetrated further into establishment appreciation is at least somewhat related to the fact that their careers are more established, as well as being more, shall we say, traditionally acceptable for men of their era (they were both born in the 1930s). You see this observation reinforced by the fact that only 3 of the 15 highest level artists are female. Clearly there is some way in which it has been harder for women to reach that level of recognition. Many historians are now going back through time and identifying female artists who were as or more talented than their male peers, but whose work was not accepted into galleries due to gender-based attitudes. Do we want Wikipedia to continue that sexism by basing notability so strongly on things like prestigious Gallery Shows, even in this era of direct sales? Like I have said, it is not my specialty. But I would not make suppositions about the Combes award being insignificant to the society based on levels of membership. To me it mainly indicates the two are based on different criteria. Netmouse (talk) 21:58, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I guess we're talking about different awards, since your reference leads to the Society for Animal Artists, of which London is a Signature Member and the artists you listed are Master members of that society. I was thinking of the Combes Award, which is given out by Artists For Conservation, who indicate, the "AFC's Simon Combes Conservation Award is the most prestigious award and highest honour AFC presents to a member artist who has shown artistic excellence and extraordinary contributions to the conservation cause, exemplifying the same qualities as the award's namesake." Re: the Society for Animal Artists giving out some 20 awards, some of that multiplicity is just due to giving out different awards for 2D or 3D art. Netmouse (talk) 22:13, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I highly recommend the Women in Red wikiproject if you want to help counter that imbalance, which I very much agree exists and try to correct for those women for whom Wikipedia hasn't yet caught up with available resources and sourcing. Unfortunately without reliable sources there doesn't appear to be a way for London and her female counterparts in the wildlife art fields to meet the notability guidelines. StarM 22:32, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Netmouse: I beg to differ with your assessment that there is gender bias, sexism or ageism involved. In the realms of Ecological art, Ecofeminist art, and some Environmental art you will find that the the vast majority of practitioners are women. And I don't mean just what you might find on WP but in general, globally, women are the major players in this arena for decades, since the 1970s. The subject of this article is simply not in that league. Netherzone (talk) 23:43, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Netmouse:The gender of an article subject is not mentioned in any of the notability criteria as being a factor. While there are projects and efforts to improve the representation of women on Wikipedia, the AFD process is not one of them; her gender is not relevant to the discussion here at all. Possibly (talk) 00:17, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Possibly: My comment about gender was in direct response to Theredproject's comment that one of the only two artists in the Society for Animal Artists' "master" level of members that had a profile here on Wikipedia also had a "solo exhibition at the Smithsonian." I know gender is not a criteria in Notability, but when one is comparing male artists born in the 1930s to a female artist born in the late 1950s, whether or not they might be exhibited in Museums, including the Smithsonian could be related to, well, a) the vast population explosion of the late 20th century, and b) gender-involved issues as to who made such decisions and according to what norms. Right now the executive director of the Smithsonian American Art Museum is female, but Robert Bateman was featured in 1987. I was commenting on how challenging it might have been for HIM to get that level of recognition THEN (as opposed to any female artist, then). Obviously, London's career was not as developed at that time. Netmouse (talk) 20:36, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The subject is obviously hard to search for online, since her last name is the capitol city of a country that was once ruled by a queen with her same first name. Try searching for her husband's name instead/in addition. See some results below. Netmouse (talk) 20:13, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Many of the above do not look like reliable sources to me. For example the nola.com article and goodgrit magazine article are the same author and are version of the same text. Mountain Trails Gallery sells her work. Edge of the Lake Magazine is bursting with advertisements, which seems to be their main purpose. The earthfireinstitute.org links are podcasts, so not independent. Are there any RS in this new list? Please point one out. Possibly (talk) 21:04, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    • Netmouse, may I jump in here to shed some light why these EarthFire Institute podcasts are not a reliable source? The podcast is basically an interview. Interviews are considered primary sources, since they are not independent of the subject.

  • Articles by D. Burst not the same @Possible dismisses coverage by author Deborah Burst from 2015 and 2020, indicating her two articles "are version of the same text" But I would posit there is nothing strange or non-independent about an author doing a five-years-later follow-up about a subject of interest. The 2020 article includes info about the Wildlife Center London and her husband built in 2016 - info that could not possibly have been printed in 2015, and was not. My guess is that this year the author was recycling a bit of material from her initial interview with London, which the 2015 piece covers in much more extensive detail, then also reporting developments since then. Absolutely normal journalism. The question for RS is are the sources reliable and independent. The Picayune is obviously a print publication that has shifted online, with an editorial staff, etc, so yes. Good Grit Magazine has only been around since 2015 but certainly looks legit.

Contested prod from over 5 years ago because "No secondary sources used to establish this as a notable topic unto itself; all 3 sources are primary. See WP:RS"

Prod template removed by article creator because "...I want to improve the article so it meets standards. However, I need more time to learn how to do what I need to do." (their edit summary)

Article hasn't improved much since then, and I agree with prod nominator in that this doesn't seem like a notable topic on its own; reading the lead paragraph of the article, the article scope is messy, not well-defined, and set up like an essay.

PROD rationale was Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL so does not meet any inclusion guideline. This is routine, this is a brief article in a local paper and this lacks depth.

There's not a lot online about this, so an article is untenable. On a side note, the English name of this is typical of c. 1980 subdivision names, and there are several streets and small subdivisions with similar names; the idea was to name your streets for British-sounding places to attract upper-middle-class home buyers.

My nomination was not in any sense based on the quality of the article, so I'm not sure why you're raising WP:IMPERFECT and WP:NOTCLEANUP. The book sources you mention are a Seinfeld encyclopedia, which is not a secondary source, a TV Guide compendium, and a fan work. They all exist to exhaustively review the show, and therefore of course they mention every episode. That's simply not enough to show that this particular episode is independently notable beyond the show itself. --Slashme (talk) 18:21, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral on this specific article but I think we have a wider problem here. I was leaning towards delete until I realised that we have an article about every single other episode of Seinfeld. That seems grossly excessive to me and reeks of fancruft in that there is almost nothing but plot summary in these articles. The referencing on the few articles I looked at at random varied between shoddy and non-existent. There may also be some plagiarism / copyright violation going on here but I'm not sure in which direction. Maybe that is somebody taking the content from us? I think it would be entirely legitimate to open a single broader discussion on whether the whole set of articles are valid. If they are not, and I'm not hopeful, then it would be nice give the fans a chance to copy them over to a fan wiki (assuming that they are not copyright violations, of course) before deleting them. --DanielRigal (talk) 14:19, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to list article. This article has maybe one good source that contributes to WP:GNG – the 'Production' section source. AndrewD is once again making the fallacious argument that inclusion in what is basically an "index" somehow contributes to notability – it does not. The fact that this episode is included in an "encyclopedia" of every episode of Seinfeld would tend to support the idea that the entire TV series is notable not that an individual episode is. Once again – most TV episodes do not receive enough independent coverage to clear WP:GNG and should not have separate articles. Even for series like Seinfeld there will be some "filler" episodes (like this) that don't get widespread enough (significant) independent coverage to merit an article. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:54, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: some sources have been added since I nominated the article, and all of them are works about the series itself. This doesn't help to show independent notability: I still fail to see any indication of impact on wider culture. --Slashme (talk) 20:42, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Struggling to see any notability. Is a Seinfeld episode really encyclopedia-worthy? An episode from a show about nothing? Fails WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV just for starters. Star7924 (talk) 21:43, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom with an ATD of Redirect. All but two (one neutral) has weighed in that the subject is not notable for a stand alone article. It is fan coverage, being one of 180 episodes with all but a couple making it to article space, and predominantly consisting of a plot. The article list 179 episodes apparently omitting The Puerto Rican Day. -- Otr500 (talk) 03:35, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

After running WP:BEFORE searches, I have been unable to locate significant coverage of this mine and it seems to fit WP:MILL pretty squarely as it's just a mine in Russia. Because this mine does not appear to be notable, I am nominating it for deletion. DocFreeman24 (talk) 06:48, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Russia-related deletion discussions. Spiderone 08:02, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep No, it's not "just a mine in Russia" and, in any case, WP:MILL is an essay not a policy or guideline and so has "no official status, and do not speak for the Wikipedia community". There are many sources which discuss the place in detail and these make it clear that it's a major source of this strategic mineral, being the biggest in Russia and in the world's top 5. Andrew🐉(talk) 13:16, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ok, can you please share those "many sources" with us or add them to the article? I searched and didn't find any sources that would demonstrate significant coverage such that this article could meet WP:GNG or fit any of the criteria in WP:NGEO. I also did some searching and found nothing to support your claims that this mine is "in the world's top 5" or even an unusually large mine in Russia. I stand by my nomination.DocFreeman24 (talk) 16:22, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • The exact ranking may vary from year to year and at some point the mine will be worked out. But, for example, this source has it as #4 in the world in 2006. Q.E.D. Andrew🐉(talk) 23:13, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for sharing that. I see that the source says that it was, at least in 2006, the 4th highest producing uranium mine in the world. That seems like a pretty non-notable distinction to me. In other words, are all mines that are in the top X for a particular mineral or ore notable? I wouldn't be in favor of that and I don't think the fact that a mine was the 4th largest uranium mine nearly 15 years ago, by itself, demonstrates notability. I think we should continue to look to WP:GNG which requires significant coverage of a subject and, at least at this point, I still haven't seen evidence that that standard is met. DocFreeman24 (talk) 23:47, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Again, if it is "easy to find evidence of notability," please add that evidence to the page so we can resolve this discussion. The article you linked above is (a) one of only two references I found in my BEFORE search, (b) isn't even the actual paper itself, just a one paragraph abstract as far as I can tell, and (c) hardly qualifies as significant coverage (i.e., a one-off report by a regulatory body regarding a subject's existence for X years is clearly not "significant coverage"). You keep responding that there are "many sources" and that they are "easy" to find. And I'm taking you at your word on that because I'm a strong believer in assuming good faith, so if that's the case for you (it wasn't for me), then please simply improve the article by adding them so we can close this debate. I will gladly withdraw this AFD if the article is improved such that significant coverage is shown as I like having more content in Wikipedia so long as its appropriate! Thank you. DocFreeman24 (talk) 04:34, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have provided specific links to multiple sources while the nominator has provided zero evidence; just empty assertions. My !vote stands per WP:SHRUBBERY. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:21, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't think further discussion between the two of us is going to be productive but thank you for weighing in. I'd just like to clearly state for anyone else considering this AFD that these "multiple sources" being referred to here are only (1) a single reference in a table stating that, in 2006, the mine was a large uranium mine and (2) an abstract of a regulatory report acknowledging that the mine has existed for 25 years. My point, throughout this process, has been that there is not significant coverage demonstrating notability and, if anything, this process has only made that conclusion clearer IMHO. DocFreeman24 (talk) 21:00, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dismissing WP:MILL as just an essay means only that you, Andrew, apparently disagree with it. If I am mistaken, and you do agree with it, then it doesn't matter that it has no official status because (a) WP:NOTBUREAUCRACY, and (b) you would personally advance the same argument. But in the other case, WP:NOTBUREAUCRACY still applies in the inverse: the argument it makes isn't magically wrong due to its lack of official endorsement. Personally, I find the essay entirely consistent as an explanation of one element of the GNG. Mangoe (talk) 19:39, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • MILL's status as an unofficial essay is a plain fact. And, in any case, it is not appropriate to this subject because the place in question is exceptional. Andrew🐉(talk) 23:13, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to Krasnokamensk, Zabaykalsky Krai, leaving redirect; it's a small stub which can easily be incorporated in a section. I don't think that the subject is unnotable (I wouldn't oppose recreation with further content), just that the current article is short even for a stub, and does not therefore merit it's own article. WT79 (speak to me | editing patterns | what I been doing) 17:52, 30 November 2020 (UTC) P.S. WP:WikiProject Mining isn't quite dead; it has notified at least me of this discussion.[reply]
  • Delete or at least merge/redirect, the article doesn't establish notability. The original author has a long history of creating articles about mines that either:
    1. Are not not sourced to anything reliable
    2. Has sources which don't reference the subject at all
    3. Claim to be one of the "largest mines in the country, and the world" when there is not actually a mine there at all, it's just a depoisit.
Without notability established within the article, delete/merge/redirect (whatever I don't care), but it shouldn't stand alone as is. --kelapstick(bainuu) 20:28, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. This substub is very bad, and my search for sources turns up next to nothing. However, recently I did some search for sources about a Polish coal mine and found quite a few, mostly in Polish-language engineering journals. Which leads me to speculate that sources may exist - in Russian. That, however, needs to be verified by a Russian speaker. I suggest this AfD is not closed until a Russian speaker has done a search for such sources. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:16, 2 December 2020 (UTC) PS.

  • Comment As a mine, the "Priargunsky mine" appears to be just an ordinary mine of little siginifcance presuming it even exists and not a garbled misinterpretation of Priargunsky Centre. The Priargunsky Centre is part of the Streltsovskiy district. It was and still is a significance region for the production of uranium for the Russian Federation. Is is also an area where significant research has gone into the reclamantion of abandoned mined lands and the mitigation of environmental concerns associated with large-scale mining. One problem is that the vast majority of the numerous articles about the Priargunsky Centre are in Russian and unaccessible as translations. The Priargunsky Centre (also known as the Priargunsky Mining-Chemical Production Association ???) is a significant uranium mining and processing entity in Trans-Baikal Territory of the Russian Federation. A summary article is:
  • Boitsov, A.V., Nikolsky, A.L., Chernigov, V.G. and Ovseichuk, V.A., 2000. Uranium production at the Priargunsky Centre (Russian Federation) and its impact on the environment (No. IAEA-SM--362). Paul H. (talk) 04:34, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, add more sources. A mine seems a much more notable thing than various sandwiches eaten in America or micro-NGOs promoting street dogs or whatnot. Sources above make seem it is quite a big mine as mines go.

  • Keep Merge. On the delete side, the Bine Mai created this article and that user has created 3,657 articles, 3.2% of which have been deleted. 3.2% seems high to me and it seems like they create articles and have not been going back and expanding them. I've seen this in other geography-related articles. I was skeptical about getting involved in the discussion of this article, but as it has not been resolved, here goes. If the mine was a community, then it might meet #2 of WP:GEOLAND because there are a few scholarly articles about the mine such as [7]. Unfortunately, the paper on the mine's first 25 years is only in Russian and not available on line, so I don't feel it can be added to the article as a reference. There are also mentions of the mine in various other references. One question is whether these sources are WP:RS. However, the Washington Post article is non-trivial coverage in a WP:RS source for the mine. However, this is not a community - it is a mine. With mines, there are often lots of articles about a non-notable mine, including mining stock press releases that are definitely not WP:RS. I found it interesting to compare this article with other uranium mines listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Mining/Articles for Verification. Most of the other articles are stubs and I don't think that they have as large a production as this location. If this gets deleted, the we really need to go through all the other mine pages listed (starting with uranium mines) and apply the same standards. As an absurd exercise, if we apply the metric that only the top three producers of each product are notable, then we should be able to quickly cut the list down :-)
The primary reason to keep this article is because it was the number one source of uranium in Russia for an entire decade (1988-1998 and 1992-2002). This makes it notable. My opinion is that where Russia gets its uranium is very interesting in part because Russia has nuclear weapons that need feedstock. Also, in 2006 it was the #4 producer of uranium world-wide. I've added support for this to the article. That said, merging with Krasnokamensk, Zabaykalsky Kraiwould also be OK with me. Cxbrx (talk) 19:47, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Heh. Well played. However, I have created only 29 articles and 1 has been deleted, so it is the problem of a small sample size. The article that was deleted concerned a company that was involved in a controversy about the Airbus 380, see Joseph Mangan. I let it slide because I had previously tangled with editors who are Airbus proponents and am adverse to conflict on Wikipedia - there are just too many things to do. The reason I bring up the number of articles deleted is because it seems that a few authors have generated a huge number of stub articles and then never gone back and filled them in. This has generated quite a bit of work. See WikiProject California/GNIS cleanup task force#I've got it! and below on that page. Also, this is at least the second stub article I've run in to that was created by the same editor that had problems.
About this mine, there is a 2006 NY Times article. As we now have a NY Times and a WA Post article, I think we have suitable coverage. See also Radio Free Europe and Greenpeace photos and text. I've spent quite a bit of time cleaning up non-notable geography articles, primarily in Nevada and California, but this mine seems notable to me. The NY Times article states that Krasnokamensk, Zabaykalsky Krai is only present because of the mine and suggests that when the mine is gone, the town will disappear. So in many ways, this mine is more notable than some random Russian town. I'd be OK with a merge, do you want to take a shot at merging the text from the mine over to Krasnokamensk, Zabaykalsky Krai?

  • Comment from Nominator. I'd like to thank everyone who participated in this AfD and, in particular, the folks who improved the article by finding sources. To the extent it matters, I no longer favor deletion and think that, at most, this article should be merged, if not kept outright. It seems that at least some of the issues I was concerned about regarding notability arise from naming issues that made it hard for me to find reliable sources. So, having read more closely at the points/sources folks were making, I think this article probably meets GNG now. Thanks again to everyone who participated and made this article better! DocFreeman24 (talk) 22:59, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I decided to be WP:BEBOLD and went ahead and merged the contents of the Priargunsky mine article in to the Krasnokamensk, Zabaykalsky Krai article in part because Priargunsky mine is pretty much an orphan. If there is disagreement, then I'll pull my changes. BTW - I hate seeing text duplicated, but it seems to be very common. In the past, I've tried using WP:TRANS, but my changes have been reverted by an editor who states that transclusion does not work in their viewer. I've changed my vote to Merge. If there is no disagreement, I leave it to an admin to do the merge. Cxbrx (talk) 21:38, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - The band was only ever mentioned as a background tidbit in media stories on the murder of their singer, and occasionally in chatter by groups who think that singer is a hero. And even those are rare. Very briefly mentioned in the book used for footnote #2, but only as an example of their genre.

      The article notes:

      Among the oldest of these is Impax Environmental Markets, an investment trust that has been going since 2002. It was set up and is managed by Impax Asset Management, a firm founded in 1998 with backing from the International Finance Corporation, part of the World Bank.

      ...

      Yet while Impax Asset Management is wedded to some lofty principles, it is also very serious about the business of making money. It has begun to cast its net far beyond the conventional remits of renewable energy and recycled waste into areas such as sustainable food and fashion and the use of technology to reduce waste and the use of raw materials across industrial sectors. With sustainability at its core, this is pretty pioneering stuff.

    2. Newman, Alex (2019-12-06). "Investors Chronicle: Impax Asset Management, Reach, Ted Baker". Financial Times. Archived from the original on 2020-12-14. Retrieved 2020-12-14.

      The article notes: "It is abundantly clear that Impax’s sustainable investing mandates are both in demand and delivering for clients, writes Alex Newman. The past year has been marked by “unprecedented concern globally about environmental issues and rapidly expanding opportunities”, in the words of Impax Asset Management’s chairman Keith Falconer. It is hard to contest that view. Equally, it is hard to think of a UK-listed financial services group better placed to capitalise on this momentous, even exponential, shift."

    3. Rice, Nick (2010-04-19). "Investment Adviser: In the spotlight: Impax Asset Management". Investment Adviser. Financial Times. Archived from the original on 2020-12-14. Retrieved 2020-12-14.

      The article notes: "Investors might worry about Impax's relatively small size and lack of diversity, but Mr Simm points out larger institutions have also taken a stake. BNP Paribas Investment Partners holds 28 per cent of the company, Rathbones has 7 per cent through its in-house portfolios, and Diam Asset Management holds 5 per cent. ... Investors must judge Impax's investment case on the basis of current valuations, and whether they believe the environment is one of the key themes of the future."

    4. Stankovska, Simona (2011-09-26). "Investment Adviser: Company profile: Impax Asset Management". Investment Adviser. Financial Times. Archived from the original on 2020-12-14. Retrieved 2020-12-14.

      The article notes: "Established in October 1998 by chief executive Ian Simmchief executive Ian Simm, the company only invests in environmentally focused equities such as renewable energy, water and waste management. ... In spite of turbulent economic conditions, Impax's largest fund, the GBP204.1m Impax Environmental Markets, a Dublin-domiciled global equities product launched in February 2002, has managed to outperform its sector, Offshore Equity Ethical, by 1.79 percentage points in the year to September 15."

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

    Cunard (talk) 11:46, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • That Impax Asset Management Group has been profiled in the Financial Times and The Times strongly establishes it is notable. That the sources include quotes from people affiliated with the company (it is good journalistic practice for reporters to speak to the subjects of their articles) does not make the articles non-independent as there is independent analysis and reporting from the journalists.

  • This is the version of the article when you nominated it for deletion. Dormskirk (talk · contribs) has done an excellent job rewriting and substantially expanding the article since it was nominated. The article is neutrally written and balanced. It includes critical commentary about Impax: "The company was criticised again, this time by the Investment Association, over executive pay in December 2018." And "After 23.7% of shareholders voted against the re-appointment of EY as the company's auditor in May 2018,[9] the company was criticised by the Investment Association, over an apparent lack of independence of EY as its auditor, in December 2018."

    It would be inadvisable for me to rewrite an article that another neutral established editor has already done a great job rewriting.

    Cunard (talk) 05:49, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I will defer to Cunard on this in the first instance but I would be content to work some of this material into the article if Cunard does not have time - particularly the material from Miles Costello of The Times which refers to "pretty pioneering stuff" and the material from Alex Newman of the Financial Times which refers to the company's ability to capitalise on "this momentous, even exponential, shift". Some of the language may need to be toned down a bit. Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 10:48, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hi Dormskirk. Thank you for pointing out the sources' commentary about Impax which strongly establishes notability per Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Significant coverage noting that, "Deep or significant coverage provides an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization". Thank you for your great work on the article. Please continue your excellent work on improving the article. Thank you! Cunard (talk) 05:49, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Cunard - Very many thanks for your kind comments, which have restored some of my faith in wikipedia. This is not the first time that I have come here to try and improve an article which I thought was worthy of improvement but whenever I have done so in the past my efforts, which were always in good faith, have been either condemned or otherwise criticised. You are a credit to the project. Thank you and best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 13:11, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I am very disappointed to hear that some editors fail to value your excellent work. They should encourage you to keep doing the great work you've been doing instead of condemning or criticising your work. I have encountered this frequently in my past work at AfD too, so I really relate to your experience. Cunard (talk) 11:05, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, while the article has been expanded recently, a lot of it is {particularly the History section) is opinioned trivia or puffery; what this journalist thought, what that person noted, what that employee did outside of the organisation etc, and not a lot of stating what it does and how it is notable. Asset managers can have a large net work due to the value of the assets under management, but aside from periodically buying and selling assets, they don't do much, hence are rarely notable enough for an article.

  • Delete – it is an impressive collection of information, but 1989 was not a particularly significant year for the Swedish armed forces, so the topic is not notable. In addition, I don't doubt that the information comes from somewhere but as there are almost no sources in the article, we can't tell how much is original research. --bonadea contributions talk 16:37, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Sweden's neutrality is irrelevant. The organisation of forces at particular points might be notable, but it would be necessary to have a series of articles on the situation at particular dates, to indicate the situation before and after reorganisations. 1989 looks like a random year, so that I also lean towards deleting. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:34, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • If I understand the intent of the creators properly, 1989 is in no way random - it represents the last year, realistically, a war could have broken out between NATO and the Warsaw Pact, where Sweden would have been in the firing line due to its position between the bulk of Norway and the Soviet Union. Buckshot06 (talk) 01:23, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • That is not discussed at all on the page and is a highly debatable "what if", nothing to show that 1989 was any more significant than any other preceding year. Mztourist (talk) 03:18, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • I agree with you that that is not brought out on the page. But to say that war could have broken out in 1990, 1991, or 1992 is "highly debatable" as opposed to 1989 is ridiculous: by October 1990 East Germany had merged with West Germany!! Buckshot06 (talk) 01:10, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:LISTN: "Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability." Whatever the level of sourcing per NNC on each individual item of this list, we cannot start to create new articles for any phenomena that are not *mentioned* in the encyclopedia - they have to be mentioned somewhere a first time. For both navigating the structure of the Swedish Armed Forces historically, and for developing more detailed coverage and new pages on the individual entities of the Swedish Armed Forces, any concerns about each individual entry meeting the GNG in detail should be put aside, so the coverage of the Swedish Armed Forces can be further developed, and their structure navigated more effectively. Buckshot06 (talk) 01:21, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • As has been replied to this argument before, that is nonsense: "we cannot start to create new articles for any phenomena that are not *mentioned* in the encyclopedia". Being an orphan is not a reason to be deleted, or not to be created. This list has no bearing on the acceptability of any other article. Second: "any concerns about each individual entry meeting the GNG in detail": I hoped that after all these AfDs, you would finally know that this is not the concern at all. The combined subject, the structure of the army in 1989, has to meet the GNG. That doesn't mean that every individual entry has to be notable, no one ever asked for this and this was never the deletion argument. Fram (talk) 08:17, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • As has been shown elsewhere, closing administrators have been impressed enough by the notability of these kind of article to reject your repeated assertions that they all lack notability - the Danish deletion attempt failed. As is repeatedly shown in the official documents, the structure of the Armed Forces is detailed in depth (reliable); more generally, Sweden and its defence and its changes with the end of the Cold War are discussed in all kinds of sources (independent); this satisfies the notability requirement. Buckshot06 (talk) 22:48, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Let's see, two "delete"s and one "no consensus", that's hardly an overwhelming "rejection" by "administrators"? "Official documents", as has been explained at nauseam, are fine for verifiability, not for notability.

  • Keep 1st: there is an equivalent article on the Swedish wikipedia sv:Svenska försvarsmaktens organisation 1989, which is identical to this one. 2nd: Sweden, as a neutral country directly opposite the Warsaw Pact, was one of the most militarized nations during the Cold War (29 wartime brigades vs. 48 wartime brigades in Germany, which had 10 times the population) and therefore is notable as a Cold War participant. 3rd: The year 1989 was chosen as in that year the Swedish Armed Forces reached their zenith in strength as defined by the sv:Försvarsbeslutet 1987 law, which originally defined the Swedish Armed Forces Structure from 1987 to 1992. However in December 1989 with the Cold War over the sv:Försvarsutredning 1988 inquiry was voted into law, which ordered the armed forces to drawdown its units starting in 1990. 1989 was the zenith of Swedish military might. 4th: On the Swedish wikipedia this article is part of a series of articles regarding the development of the Swedish Armed Forces over time: i.e. sv:Svenska försvarsmaktens organisation 1999. 5th: The Swedish wikipedia also lists a series of books dealing with the Försvarsbeslutet 1987 and the resulting armed forces structure:

  • Keep: Article meets WP:CLN WP:AOAL for keeping a list. 1989 is a major milestone year in the Cold War. Per CLN "Deleting these rudimentary lists is a waste of these building blocks".   // Timothy :: talk  04:53, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • As has been explained before, "not meeting CLN AOAL" is not the reason to delete these, so meeting these is a strawman. AOAL explains what the advantages of a list are over a category or a navigational template, but this is irrelevant. I'm not really sure how a 4-year old, 75kB list is supposed to be " a rudimentary list", but in any case that sentence is "in comparison to categories". A category for the 1989 order of battle would be an equally bad idea. Fram (talk) 08:43, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • It does not matter that the nom ignored CLN, AOAL in their reason to delete; Noms usually fail to mention or sidestep reasons to keep an article. In this case the article clearly meets CLN, AOAL and meeting this negates that reason the nom gave for deleting when it states, "Deleting these rudimentary lists is a waste of these building blocks" AOAL is not dependent on the existence of a category, but there is a category Category:Military units and formations of Sweden Category:Structures of military commands and formations in 1989, but the header of CLN states that the existence of a category is irrelevant when considering the value of a list.   // Timothy :: talk  09:27, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
PS The lead and section headers do need expansion, I will do so if the list is kept.   // Timothy :: talk 
        • I don't think you really understand categories and lists and how they are treated in CLN, if you somehow equate the contents of the list with the existence of a category the list belongs to. What CLN is really about, is if we had a category "structure of the Swedish armed forces in 1989" where the actual entries of this page, this list, belonged to (so the individual battalions or formations or ...). The comparison you make here between the list under discussion, and the category "Structures of military commands and formations in 1989" is not relevant at all. WP:AOAL is "Compared with a category, a list may have both advantages and disadvantages." and then listing these advantages; this has nothing to do with whether the list should be kept or deleted for notability reasons, and I am not ignoring it as a reason to keep the article. The whole page you cling to is only about the distinction and overlap between cats, lists and nav, and that having one is not a reason to delete the other. Nothing on that page addresses whether a list should be kept on its own merits or not, which is what is being discussed here. I hope some kind closing admin will explain this to you. Fram (talk) 10:12, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • I replaced the category above with the correct one Category:Military units and formations of Sweden. You're condensing and frankly insulting comments such as "I hope some kind closing admin will explain this to you" are uncivil. We've both been at AFD long enough to know individuals can hold valid though different opinions on guidelines.   // Timothy :: talk  11:16, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
            • That people can hold valid but different opinions, doesn't mean that people can't have invalid opinions as well. Note that the category you now used, "Category:Military units and formations of Sweden", isn't about 1989 (or any other year), so is not an equivalent of the list we are discussing here. Your whole argument is a strawman because a) no one is suggesting deleting this list "because we have a category for it", but because the list topic isn't notable, and b) we don't have a category for the structure of the swedish armed forces in 1989 anyway, so no one could be making the argument you are trying to counter. As an example: if someone was arguing that List of Swedish Army brigades should be deleted because we have Category:Brigades of the Swedish Army, then your references to CLN would be perfectly valid. The current sitation is completely different though. Fram (talk) 11:31, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Yet another poorly sourced order of battle article relating to an arbitrary year. Of the five sources linked in the article, four are broken links (and one is dated as of 1977, thus making it a poor source for the structure of the armed forces in 1989). The other is, apparently, the Swedish 5-year defense plan as of 1987 -- which may reflect a plan for 1989 but does not establish what the Swedish armed forces actually had in 1989. Also, the article lead says that the article was created from, among other sources, "the Swedish Wikipedia articles about Swedish units histories", although Wikipedias are not themselves reliable sources. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:29, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Did you pursue other options before deleting this page? I see no reason to delete the article and destroy the usable information.

  • Keep - okay, I've expanded it now, sources added. Definitely notable and not at all due to her family background. Her parents and position might have given her the opportunity, but she is her own person and her individual work has been gaining wide coverage - the author of a bestselling book, a columnist for DNA India and Vogue India, always in the news for her different ventures, including the fashion label she lauched.

@Yashthepunisher, VocalIndia, and Shshshsh: After reading your reply I am scratching my head here, as clearly I dont see anything remarkable in her achievement. that you are seeing. None of you have provided any link for the rule which proves that this person deserves her own article. It seems likely that you are referring to some rule that is not mentioned either on WP:NACTOR or WP:AUTHOR. Just writing a novel that gets a review article is not a remarkable achievement, being a columnist in a newspaper is also not a rule anywhere for an article. Even the article about the book seem to be there only because of her being BigB daughter. The rule on Wikipedia NAUTHOR demands "the person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors, person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums." Even WP:GNG demands "significant coverage in multiple media". I see no criteria being met here for keeping the individual article as of now. Walrus Ji (talk) 11:15, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oh come on, actually it is me who's scratching his head right now. You are clearly misinterpreting WP:N here, and I don't mean to be disparaging to you. If you feel something about this (IMO redundant) nomination, then cast your vote like everybody else does. She's not an actor at all, so drop the WP:NACTOR; if you don't want to see her as an author, forget WP:NAUTHOR as well. But indeed, the general notability guideline requires "significant coverage in multiple media", just as you've quoted here, and she's got plenty of it for her individual activity. Does she get all that attention because of her family background? Probably, so? That you do not see "anything remarkable in her achievement" is strictly your personal opinion, and subjective positions cannot be guiding us here. I can give you names of many celebs who are pretty much famous without a reason, so it's not really a valid rationale. Bachchan-Nanda has written a bestselling book (which has been reviewed all over the Indian press; two cited in the article), columns in a leading newspaper and a high-profile magazine, her fashion label has been widely publicised. All of it is not my own knowledge, it has been reported in numerous reliable sources, some of which are cited in the article. I specifically took the time to support every single claim with several sources, to not leave doubts about the "significant coverage in multiple media" she gets. Shahid • Talk2me 12:03, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Shshshsh:, I am not saying you are wrong, just askign what I am missing here. I am not misinterpreting anything, I just quoted from the notability rules that others have mentioned. I had to quote because folks above seem to unaware of the high bar needed for WP:BIO articles. May be they did not bother to read the rule so I quoted it. A fashion label or a book may be highly publicised because of "Paid publicity", they need to be disregarded. In fact most of the articles listed as a reference are PR piece/advertorials for the channel or her cloth company or her novel, most of which mention her parent in the title. WP:GNG demands "significant coverage in multiple media". If you think GNG is met, then please post those links below for review. Walrus Ji (talk) 12:16, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
My friend, most of what you said about the articles being "paid publicity" and "PR piece" is baseless and pure speculation, and the burden of evidence in this case is on you. As a matter of fact, the reviews cited are highly critical of her book, so I can't see how you even come to such conclusions. All the sources more than meet WP:RS, most are newspapers, their authors provided, and there are many more. Whether her parents are mentioned or not (and in most cases, as opposed to what you've said here, they're not), matters less. I certainly do not have to post links on this page, I've cited them in the article as inline citations, and if you think any of them does not meet WP's reliability guideline, please explain it here, providing the right kind of evidence. Thanks, Shahid • Talk2me 15:30, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You are only repeating yourself without adding evidence, so I will end this discussion with my parting comment. She fails WP:NAUTHOR for reasons stated above, prominently as her book is not a remarkable work, no awards. She fails WP:GNG because so far none of sources that I see in the ref section or my searches are " significant coverage " of her Biography. On top of that not one link was presented here, despite asking. I will continue with my original assessment of "Redirect". --Walrus Ji (talk) 15:50, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I think you are repeating yourself, in addition to clearly not having read my reply to you. She is not an author, so WP:NAUTHOR is not relevant, she is a person who wrote a bestselling book. The awards part is almost funny, I can give you many, many iconic books which haven't won any award, and why would she win an award for a book which was a critical failure? The fact is that the book was well covered in the press, and if anyone has to provide here evidence, it is you, my friend, for your baseless, speculative, and unsubstantiated claims of some paid publicity and bad faith on the reliable sources, which reviewed her work negatively. The page provides sources which actually do provide significant coverage of Bachchan-Nanda, because every claim is supported by different articles from different reliable publications. As for presenting links here, I'll happily repeat myself here again - they are presented as inline citations in the article, no need to present them here, that's not how it works. She is a notable person for her many ventures - not necessarily her book but her entire activity altogether. That's it, thank you, Shahid • Talk2me 21:16, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Calling the subject a best selling author is laughable, to say the least. Appear on a website as the second-most selling book on a certain week doesn't make it a 'best selling book'. And getting a passing coverage on the same by her notable father's Instagram post is not remarkable either. - The9Man (Talk) 09:41, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Let's agree to disagree. In any case, she gets wide coverage for her work in the media - sufficient of a reason to assume her notability on WP. Shahid • Talk2me 11:42, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Following WP:BEFORE#C4, quote "If the topic is not important enough to merit an article on its own, consider merging or redirecting to an existing article.

Walrus Ji (talk) 10:02, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think you're misinterpreting the policy. The subject is important - it totally abides by WP:GNG. She is a celebrity and writer, whose every activity receives significant coverage in independent, reliable sources (you called some of them "paid publicity" - I mean, negative reviews of her book!). Anyway, the subject is notable (even I didn't think she'd be), and I think the easy thing is stopping by and dismissing it time and again just for the sake of it. It is more challenging to put effort into saving it, improve it, and that's what I did no matter the outcome. That's the spirit of Wikipedia. Shahid • Talk2me 10:17, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You need to learn the meaning of "misinterpret", it is not what you think it is. You have failed to prove any such claims on notability. Let me correct your lines. "She is a (daughter of a) celebrity and (obscure) writer, whose every activity receives significant Trivial coverage (due to her celebrity parents and promotional advertisements.)" Walrus Ji (talk) 10:27, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
First off, what do you want? Didn't you already vote? Secondly, calm down there, and if anyone needs to learn, it is probably you (ironically, your very first sentence ignores the rules of punctuation, changed after my message, and so does the third), so let me teach you: see misinterpret on Wiktionary, that's exactly true of your behaviour. You're again posting here blatant lies. The claims of notability have been proven beyond doubt, look at the article, which is perfectly sourced now with many reliable sources. Please read WP:N again. You, on the other hand, are repeating the same senseless claims about "paid publicity" and "trivial". Where is your evidence? I don't know what you mean by trivial coverage, the sources on the article show that she gets significant coverage with articles written about her and her parents not being even mentioned. Your claims are baseless, mine are supported by the work I've done. Now I've had enough with carrying a fruitless debate with a new user who's never even contributed to Wikipedia.

Okay that made me laugh. Now you're also misusing WP:NPA. At no point did I discuss you. I, as opposed to you, did stick to the content until you wrote "you need to learn..." - that is discussing me and not the content, so please, at least practice what you preach. The only one here who adheres to WP:CON happens to be me, frankly, as I was the one to expand the article with reliable sources, and you just attacked the subject and the reliable sources with some weird speculations, to which no evidence has been attached right to this moment. Another misinterpretation is your mention of edit counts, that's not what I said, and that's not my style (I would never ever start by telling someone that they "need to learn" unless they did so themselves, like you did), I was merely taking note of my recent contribution to this article as opposed to just dismissing it as you did, with no evidence. Since I do not want to offend, I'm striking my comment (which is deifnitely not an attack but just not nice). As I said, I always focus on the content. Anyhow, let's stop it here, I'm busy.

  • Delete The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations as per WP:NCORP is for multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "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.

  • Keep - The article is full of fancruft that can be removed, and the authors used the wrong sources. It may also be a mistake to focus on the two-sided single release, as the A-side "In League with Satan" has all the history. But that song is notable as a separate non-album release, especially for kicking off decades of moral panic about supposed Satanism in metal music. This song, and complaints about it, are abundant in books on the history of heavy metal, books written by moralists who are scared of metal, books about Satanism, and books about the controversy. See this Google Books search: [11] with several pages of relevant results. The article can be kept but refocused on the historical (ahem) influence of "In League with Satan". ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 19:06, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • You wrote keep but your argument appears to be that it should be deleted and to delete the fan cruft, focus on the one song. That would also imply that it be moved to a new location to focus on the new subject. Wouldn't it just make sense to delete and create a new article?

    • Be careful with SPA accusations, as the person behind the Venom articles is simply making use of his own knowledge, but maybe a little too enthusiastically with the fan trivia.

  • Keep. I don't know why this article keeps getting tagged as non-notable and accused of using poor sources. The sources in the article are Bloomberg News [12][13], Forbes[14], and CNN[15]. All 3 have significant coverage (entire article is about Lidya). The CNN link is an interview, so can't really use much material from it (primary source), but the fact that CNN is interviewing the CEO indicates notability, imo. These are all reliable sources on the WP:RSP list. Passes WP:GNG. Passes WP:3REFS. I wouldn't have taken the time to write this article from scratch if I didn't think it passed. I wrote this article because I was pruning the WP:RA companies list, and this company provided what looked like good enough sources to survive AFD.

  • Keep I reviewed and was able to find more sources and content, so I have improved this article taking it from 4 sources to 10. The nominator and above Delete voter should revisit their votes. All sources from credible publication so there is significant coverage. There were more news sources available but most were covering the same stuff, so no need to add excessive sources.

  • Delete - Do reliable sources discuss the organization? Yes! Is WP:SIGCOV satisfied? sadly No, and that is what I presume to be wrong with this article and why it keeps getting flagged for notability. The reliable sources discussing the organization are merely announcements and do not discuss the organization per se. if any editor can show me 3 reliable sources where the organization is discussed with WP:SIGCOV id change my !vote in a heartbeat. Celestina007 (talk) 08:36, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Most of these sources have an in depth coverage of the company. They are not just passing mentions. Also I found this new source. As you know the Wiki policy says the company have to have significant coverage, but do not specify how many articles is considered significant. While you may think there is not significant coverage, I personally think there is enough to justify a keep, so this is why we vote.Expertwikiguy (talk) 11:08, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • User:Celestina007, Lidya has 100% coverage in the following sources: Bloomberg News [16][17], Forbes[18], and CNN[19]. These are all reliable sources, per WP:RSP. Am I completely misunderstanding our RS policy? To say that news outlets on our reliable sources list can create entire pieces on something, but then say that those aren't sigcov/are just "announcements"... Please forgive me for not understanding. I'm happy to hear your explanation. –Novem Linguae (talk) 16:07, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Novem Linguae: Bloomberg News [20] is a PR piece and Yahoo is a reprint of it. Forbes article [21] is by a contributor and not by a staff member. CNN[22] is an interview with the founder, so none of these are reliable and independent of the subject and fails WP:ORGIND.--Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 19:13, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Umakant Bhalerao. Yeah, I included the Yahoo link to get around the paywall. Is there an objective way to determine if something is a "PR piece"? I don't see anything that specifically says it's a press release in that article.
Are articles by "contributors" always disqualifying as reliable source? Is that in WP policy somewhere?
I'd argue that the fact that CNN chose to interview him and publish it is enough to convey notability (even though it's a primary source, a RS still chose to cover and publish it), but I understand if somebody disagrees with that point. –Novem Linguae (talk) 19:35, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Novem_Linguae, except references based on interviews fail WP:ORGIND HighKing++ 20:58, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Novem_Linguae & Expertwikiguy I agree with Umakant Bhalerao analysis of the sources presented in this AFD. Furthermore, yes! If I learnt properly from Barkeep49, a PR piece isn’t considered reliable because it isn’t independent of the subject as it is a sponsored post, which is in direct contradiction to WP:GNG. You may have to see WP:RS also. I might however change my vote to a weak keep in the long run because I think a combination of all the reliable sources that aren’t written by guest editors or Pr sponsored may be enough to satisfy WP:BASIC. Celestina007 (talk) 21:13, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Celestina007. Thanks for the feedback. Where does it say PR or sponsored though? Are we just inferring this, or does it say it somewhere in one of these pieces and I am not seeing it? –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:41, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Well this other article is practically a word-for-word copy. Then you realise that the article notes Ercin Eksin, co-founder of Lidya, said in a phone interview so it was a press call. Either way, based on an interview and fails WP:ORGIND HighKing++ 20:58, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations is WP:NCORP and applies a stricter interpretation of requirements than for other topics. In short, WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "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. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. None of the references in the article meet the criteria and having searched I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria. Topic fails GNG/WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 20:51, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    Did any of those making this argument not read the entire thing? There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") or what other criteria may justify the notability of stand-alone lists. Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability. Dream Focus 00:43, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Do you have anything better to do than to try and refute just about every "Delete" vote? Namcokid47 (Contribs) 01:04, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Definitely needs improvement, but AFD is WP:NOTCLEANUP either. It’s definitely a notable subject that gets coverage in general. The PlayStation equivalent has 300+ sources in it. I’m not sure I follow the argument - are we really to believe that the cross-section of “cancelled video games” and “games on Microsoft consoles” are not something covered in reliable sources? Sergecross73 msg me 16:06, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment from nom on reasons to Delete:This is not a case of a complex and cross-categorization list, it does not cross index multiple categories. If the article was "List of System A games also released on System B you have two categories crossed: A list for System A and another list for System B; you compare them and include (or exclude as the case may be) items based on the criteria established in the lead. This article is a simple list: cancelled games for Microsoft consoles. No other category is to cross indexed with it.
But if it is insisted that this is a cross-categorization list, then the list also fails WP:NOTDIR: "non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations, such as "people from ethnic / cultural / religious group X employed by organization Y" or "restaurants specializing in food type X in city Y". Cross-categories such as these are not considered a sufficient basis for creating an article, unless the intersection of those categories is in some way a culturally significant phenomenon."
Since this is a simple list, the operative part of LISTN is, "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list.". Countless AfDs have affirmed a consensus that, barring some extenuating facts particular to a list, for a list to be notable it must be discussed as a group as stated in LISTN.   // Timothy :: talk  16:11, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Countless AFDs have actually affirmed that if its useful for navigation, combining related things in a list of blue links to articles, then it should be kept. Anyway, as far as being discussed as a group https://www.thegamer.com/cancelled-xbox-games-never-knew-existed/ https://gamerant.com/canceled-xbox-one-games/ https://gamerant.com/xbox-canceled-games-know-existed/ https://www.gamesradar.com/12-cancelled-xbox-360-and-ps3-games-we-actually-miss/ and elsewhere found after a quick search. Dream Focus 17:26, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment from nom on reasons to Keep: Even though I'm the nom and favor deletion, on this one I can see the other perspective; Dream Focus made the best argument I can see for keeping based WP:CLN, that WP:AOAL complements multiple categories. Notability commonly falls away here, in favor of utility; it would be Monty Python level silly to try and show many outlines and indexes are notable based on SIGCOV, but they are important parts of WP no one would delete. Sergecross73 mentions List of cancelled games for Sony consoles which has views in the 600s which shows that a list of this kind exists and is useful for some readers which is at the heart of CLN.
Again I do not agree with the above, but it is a valid arguement.   // Timothy :: talk  16:42, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per DreamFocus. Contra the nom, this passes NOTDIR as an index of articles (and arguably organized by their most defining fact), in addition to WP:LISTPURP and WP:NOTDUP. The "one accepted reason" described at LISTN doesn't contribute anything relevant or helpful here, though "canceled games" are indisputably discussed as a group and it makes sense to subdivide them by platform. postdlf (talk) 16:25, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fully cancelled video games that 1) were notable and 2) never made it to release because they were reported to be cancelled should be documented. But this list, as well as the PlayStation and other similar lists that I see, have the problem of a major point of original research on presume that because a game was never released for a given platform means it was cancelled. Little of the sourcing on the other lists are sourcing the cancellation but simply that the game was announced for said platform and that was it, and then the presumption that since enough time has passed, the game must be cancelled. This may be okay for some platforms but not all, and is poor original research to building these lists. The categories serve the matter better as long as the information is documented about cancellation. --Masem (t) 16:53, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Is there anything listed that you have clicked on and not found the word "cancelled" in the article for these games? If if the information can be in their articles, then it can be in the category and in this list article as well. Dream Focus 00:44, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Seconded. Whether some entries may not verifiably belong is a cleanup issue, not an argument against the very idea of the list. Particularly since Masem ended with an endorsement of categorizing the exact same factual claim that a game was canceled for a particular platform. The format by which information is presented does not change the verifiability of that information. postdlf (talk) 00:56, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Please note that I said "as long as the cancellation can be documented" - eg the sourcing for cancellation must still be there. Many of the entries still appear to be games that are sourced to an announcement but not a news source confirming their cancelation, nor which is stated in the article proper, and only the presumption too much time has passed has it been assumed the game must have been cancelled. The premise that most of the entries have on here fails WP:V and encourages original research. --Masem (t) 06:37, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    If the company announces it was canceled then that's fine, don't need a news source to repeat that they told you it was canceled. You can verified it was canceled by the official announcement. Dream Focus 09:21, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    A press release is fine to source. I'm saying that many games here appear to be presumed cancelled because the game doesn't exist X years after it was announced, with the only sourcing available being the announcement and no conclusive statement from the dev or pub that it was cancelled. That's original research, even though Occum's Razor says that's also likely true. We should still not be making that presumption. --Masem (t) 19:44, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The fact that they have to be merged together into a single "Voltron" article for Microsoft "consoles" shows its non-notability. It's an unencyclopedic cross-categorization of all Microsoft consoles + cancelled games. Almost no RS discusses cancelled Xbox games as a group, instead going by system.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 10:36, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    So split it into three articles then? Dream Focus 15:53, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: The scope is too broad and the entries barely have any relations to each other (other than being cancelled). "Microsoft consoles" are also excessively broad. If this is a list about first-party cancellations, or if it just focuses on any one of these consoles (e.g. List of cancelled Xbox 360 games), then that may work a bit better. OceanHok (talk) 12:49, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete While I can understand why the keep votes are cast, in my opinion, this list does not meet WP:LISTN '"One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list."' a news search {"cancelled games for Microsoft consoles" -wikipedia} returns zero hits. While this in it's self does not show a failure of notability, I think it shows the existing delete votes have a stronger standing then the existing keep votes Jeepday (talk) 14:43, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    That's "one accepted reason". Keep reading, it list another is for navigational purposes. And If you search for "canceled" and "xbox" you get results, I posting several in the discussion above already. Dream Focus 15:53, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: The article needs work and expansion but the underlying idea seems fine to me. As Dream Focus says, this is a valid navigational list; while the subject is also covered by categories, laying it out in in an article gives pertinent information (year and publisher) upfront, and the use of sortable tables can be a boon— it would hardly be outlandish for a person to want to see the list chronologically rather than alphabetically, or group cancelled titles by publisher. I was prepared to suggest a split by console when I first saw this AfD, but the page and it currently stands is small enough that that would seem excessive; perhaps in the future, if the page gets longer. — Kawnhr (talk) 19:42, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Per WP:LISTN, "Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability." WP:LISTPURP in turn states that lists may exist to serve an informational or navigational purpose. Edge3 (talk) 23:12, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Not only is Masem's comment right on the money, but no one has mentioned that we explicitly decided in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cancelled video games a decade ago to cover canceled games by category and not list. I haven't seen a convincing rationale to overturn that. czar 23:38, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    The reasons given are not valid here. There are references to prove things. When I added seven things to the Xbox One section, I made certain they weren't released on other consoles. A canceled game not just a canceled port. Dream Focus 13:42, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    So, for example, where is the source that proves that Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity for the Xbox 360 was cancelled? It's definitely not in our article, and I can't find a hit on Google News for that (even considering non-RSes). That it was planned seemed to be supported, but not that it was cancelled. Obviously, at this point, that it never came out we can say with reasonable doubt that the port was abandoned but that's not exactly the same as cancelled (compared to say Knoxville for Xbox One, which has clear sourcing that the studio shut down and the project canned). --Masem (t) 14:30, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Just like to point out: We have a List of cancelled games for Nintendo consoles, List of cancelled games for Sony consoles, List of cancelled games for Sega consoles, , List of cancelled Sega Genesis games, List of cancelled N-Gage games, List of cancelled PlayStation Vita games, List of cancelled games for Commodore platforms, List of cancelled Atari Lynx games, List of cancelled Atari Jaguar games, List of cancelled 3DO Interactive Multiplayer games, List of cancelled X68000 games, List of cancelled games for SNK consoles, List of cancelled games for NEC consoles, List of canceled Command & Conquer games, etc. Dream Focus 22:01, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    However, a comment made by the user DGG caught my attention at the discussion Czar linked here: "a list is obfviously better since it can include some context about the platform and date and produced." Meaning that a list is completely valid, at least in my opinion. Even if the lists i did for the Lynx, Jaguar, N-Gage, 3DO, X68000 and Genesis get either deleted or redirected, they are still vaild topics to create a list about them. What the people said at that discussion was their opinion, just like everybody here, but that should not completely dictate how we should approach the subject of cancelled games (P.S.: I do not agree at all with Teancum's opinion. A mere category tag is not enough.) Roberth Martinez (talk) 20:02, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, those are all lists created by the same people in the last two years that should be deleted using this and prior discussions as precedent. None of them discuss cancellation for the given platform as an defining/important trait. Every one I checked is an original research magnet. Thanks for aggregating them. czar 05:27, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    That is your opinion Czar. How the ones I made (Lynx, Jaguar, N-Gage, 3DO, X68000 and Genesis) constitute as original research? I always make sure to have them referenced before releasing them from my sandbox. I've also used them to post that info on their respective articles (e.g. Pitfall: The Mayan Aventure planned for 3DO, Jewel Master being moved from the X68000 to the Genesis and the plethora of notable titles being planned and scrapped for the Lynx). Even the ones in the Genesis list were reviewed in magazines for crying out loud! Like I said before, no previous discussion should dictate us how to approach canned games. I'll keep making list about canned games for each platform and have them sourced regardless of what might happen to them and I'll guide myself by what User:DGG said before in the discussion you brought up... Roberth Martinez (talk) 05:48, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Czar's point is that there are no (reliable, anyway) sources on why these cancelled games are a defining feature of the console and thus deserve an entire article/list to cover it. While there are sources in those lists that confirm those games existed, there's none that actually talk about the significance that they have for the consoles they were intended for — that's why they fall under WP:OR. Frankly, I'd be in support of having those deleted too, since they have the same problems that this Microsoft console list does — they're insignificant.

    There was no consensus yet to delete these lists, and I doubt there will be. There is no disruption to prove a point.

  • Delete. We don't have a List of cancelled video games, so we should not have per-manufacturer lists either. Instead, split to List of Xbox games, List of Xbox 360 games, and List of Xbox One games. IceWelder [✉] 20:38, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The topic of "cancelled games on [insert platform brand here]" is not normally discussed as a group by reliable sources. I do think splitting to independent articles on a per platform basis, such as List of cancelled Xbox 360 games, is fine, but we should be strict on sourcing. TarkusABtalk/contrib 14:06, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@TarkusAB:I mean, the sourcing part that you mentioned is what i did exactly for Genesis, N-Gage, Lynx, Jaguar, 3DO and X68000 (with the Genesis one being the most grueling i've done as of date) so, you ain't wrong in that sense... Roberth Martinez (talk) 18:44, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, and to be clear that's not a split vote. I don't have much to add outside of what Czar and Masem have already argued.

Coreykai, I think we had an edit conflict I was opening the AFD in the same time you were requesting an A7.

  • Speedy delete a large percentage of the references are blatantly non-useable, such as IMDb and Spotify, and any other source is a short and non-independent press release. Subject fails all the criteria he should pass, such as WP:MUSICBIO and WP:SIGCOV. It is also promotional and very suspicious of self-publishing as the author has only edited this article. On top of it, the authors username is "non notable places and people", which is what pushed me to suggest speedy deletion. Coreykai (talk) 16:06, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

He also stated that "the general topics are verified on multiple sources and the artist is verified as an artist on Google, Spotify, and a few other sites that were listed. I'm looking to start doing more content writing on alternative/dark artists of all kind" I am afraid they will all be deleted if they contain "verified" "sources" as those sites... GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:25, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The article has been frothed up to make it look substantial, but the claims of notability are thin and the reliable and verifiable sources needed to support notability are even thinner. A search in Google about the artist turned up little more than this source, which is already in the article, and hardly suffices to meet the notability standard. Alansohn (talk) 16:36, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • ’’’Don’t Delete’’‘ Please tell me which sources listed are from non reputable outlets or are promotional. I’ve seen that the artist has a press release, but I specifically have only included articles from reputable outlets with authors. Every article added was free of paid promotion. The artist meets notability guidelines for musicians in several ways. He has or is releasing songs with notable ensembles (Kim Bullard, Katy Rose, and Lil Tracy). The artist has been credited in three films for either composition or production. The artist shares a name with a city, and is currently more relevant according to Google. Also, how am I the only contributor to this article? There have been multiple contributions by many different people. User: slykos was the first to move it to draft. I am not this person, nor do I have any personal affiliation with this entity. Notablepeopleandplaces (talk) 16:37, 18 December 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Notablepeopleandplaces (talk • contribs) [reply]
@Notablepeopleandplaces: Just because he worked with notable people does not make him notable, if he is not covered by reliable sources. There need to be reliable sources about a living person (and about everything, by the way). I don't know about the films, so I can't comment on that. Being named after a city is not notability make either (come on, WP would be a parody of itself if that would make someone notable). The city is notable, but this guy isn't notable just because he's named after a city. Please read WP:RS, WP:ALBUMAVOID and WP:NOTINHERITED before you plan to continue writing those artists you mentioned on your talk page. Thank you.

  • Delete. I just removed the personal life section, as the entire thing was just a copy of the biography on the subject's website. The next step would be to remove all the content sourced to IMDb, which as a user-generated site is not considered reliable. And then the interviews can go, as those are essentially self-published and not subject to the editorial overview that we expect from reliable sources. After that, there's really nothing left – certainly nothing that shows that this artist meets any of the criteria listed at WP:MUSICBIO. – bradv🍁 17:04, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A non-notable footballer that gained some local coverage after an incident involving Matt Ritchie when he was a ball boy. Only other claim to notability is from technically passing WP:NFOOTBALL for playing one minute of professional football for Oxford; a totally inconsequential substitute appearance. I could find no evidence of being able to pass WP:GNG from this appearance alone and he had a very short subsequent career in non-league as he decided to retire almost immediately after playing in the 4th tier in Norway. There is a growing consensus that footballers that only just pass NFOOTY can and should be deleted if GNG is comprehensively failed. Norwegian sources only cover him in passing, for example this and this. Other than the Oxford Mail sources in the article, we have this passing mention, this one and this short article. At best, a mention in the Matt Ritchie article. Nothing more. Spiderone 12:36, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. WP:NFOOTBALL says "2.Players who have played, and managers who have managed, in a competitive game between two teams from fully professional leagues will generally be regarded as notable. See a list of fully professional leagues kept by WikiProject Football. … Note: For the purposes of this guideline, "played" means having appeared in a match either in the starting lineup or coming on as a substitute." Hawtin qualifies as notable by that criterion, however brief his appearance, and it was at least a League game, and not a minor cup competition. Dave.Dunford (talk) 14:09, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

At the very top of WP:NFOOTBALL, it says This guideline is used to help evaluate whether or not a sports person or sports league/organization (amateur or professional) is likely to meet the general notability guideline, and thus merit an article in Wikipedia. NFOOTBALL is merely a guideline to help us decide whether something will pass WP:GNG. If someone comprehensively fails GNG, it's fair to say that scraping by on NFOOTBALL is insufficient. Hawtin is an amateur footballer (most recently playing for Brackley Town reserves) who just so happened to play one minute (one minute!) of a game between two professional teams. The chances are, he probably never even touched the ball. Spiderone 16:03, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In those cases, WP:GNG takes precedence, and in this case the player does not pass that threshhold. Onel5969 TT me 21:04, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a brand new band that generated a little buzz deep in the Dutch metal scene as a new project by the previously newsworthy Bechtold, though her article needs more proof of notability too.

Wow. Article has been uncited for two years, but did have 3 refs when it was created 5 years ago. I had to go back to Ser Amantio di Nicolao's July 2018 edit to find those citations. That being said, all 3 refs were pretty poor, and did not show notability, for which it has been tagged since 2015, without improvement.

  • Keep The subject is a notable journalist due to her multiple bylines across several noteworthy websites (Game Informer, editor-in-chief Prima Games, etc.). That fact is highlighted by several noteworthy sources. The article in question was also recently edited to establish the subject's role in the Cyberpunk 2077 incident and it too currently includes numerous independent sources. ImWithStoopid13 (talk) 07:49, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
To establish notability, the article has to be about her rather than being written by her. OceanHok (talk) 08:09, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand your point. The article features multiple sources independent of her work (i.e. not Game Informer). That should establish a basic qualification of notability as per WP:GNG. ImWithStoopid13 (talk) 08:38, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@ImWithStoopid13: There are four sentences aside from this event. One sentence is sourced from a personal twitter announcement. Another is unsourced. Unless there is more that I am missing, I don't think this meets WP:GNG. --Elephanthunter (talk) 09:14, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Elephanthunter: Ah okay, fair enough. I agree with you on both those issues and I've made edits addressing them. Regardless of my editing oversights, I still believe the subject warrants an article, established by her noteworthy journalism career. ImWithStoopid13 (talk) 21:09, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
For it to be noteworthy, it needs to have things written about it by others. Simply using original research to locate articles by her does not prove it is noteworthy.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 00:04, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I'm definitely missing something here. By my count, only three sources in the article are written by her and these were simply meant to be secondary to other more proper sources. The remaining dozen are entirely independent of the subject (i.e. not from a site she writes for) and each varyingly reference her prominence as a journalist.ImWithStoopid13 (talk) 03:38, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
A quick way to see whether the articles are about her or not, just look at the title of the articles. Source 1-5, 9-14 are all about the games than the journalists. 6-7 does not sound like RS, and source 8 is a primary source (because she worked there). For an individual to meet WP:GNG, it needs to have significant coverage, not some passby mentions. OceanHok (talk) 05:44, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Btw, that article is about another band called "Rebel Yell." I haven't seen the name "Head On" mentioned anywhere in it. But anyways, yeah, this is a non-notable band. They weren't signed to a major label, no evidence of notable members, just because they toured with big names they are not notable, the bland name makes it difficult to search so I tried with their sole album and I couldn't find anything reliable (and even then, most results are about different stuff where the words appear separately). Maybe there are print coverage, since this was a pre-Internet band (they were active from '80 to '84). GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 08:38, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
To clarify, yes the article focuses on "Rebel Yell" but it mainly talks about Miro Berglund who was part of "Head On" and briefly mentions that. It's all irrelevant anyways since the article wasn't about "Head On". JayJayWhat did I do? 09:04, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Then this article is not acceptable as a source either since it's not about this band. Being mentioned in context of another band does not indicate notability. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:39, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - A lesser-known local band from decades ago, now featured in a Wikipedia article written by fans trying to inflate the band's historical importance and claiming that they influenced later superstars. In fairness, they seem to have been appreciated by other local musicians, as you can see in stories like this: [28], and they hung out with some famous people, but all of their notice is second-hand at best.

Appears to be some sort of neighborhood or subdivision. GNIS entry is sourced to a street map, which is always a bad sign.

  • delete First off, the GNIS cite is to one of those highly questionable county maps. But it is also possible to verify the non-RS site by driving past the place in streetview, where you can see the (ex-)restaurant and the motel sitting next to each other, maybe a mile north of the cheese factory. Go far enough back on the aerials and the buildings go away. It's pretty clear that the only Blue Gum was this restaurant/motel combination, so not notable.

  • Merge to Hasmonean dynasty. It seems reasonable to me to cover both the family and the dynasty they spawned in a single article, especially since the majority of the article will be overlap. I'm opposed any merge to Maccabean Revolt, as detailed information about the family of the Maccabees is out of place in the article about the war. I'm not convinced there's enough separate content between the family that can be written outside of the scope of the dynasty to support an article though.

Care to explain? The widest definition of the Maccabees is that they were Mattathias sons. The same people that led the Maccabean revolt.

  • Lean delete - This one's hard to search for - there were also Buzzard's Roosts in Carrollton and Natchez, apparently. this says Buzzard Roost is only a store. I found a newspapers.com result from the 90s saying that Buzzard Roost was the home of a marijuana kingpin, and another mentioning that an old highway went between Buzzard Roost and Benndale. There was a Buzzard Roost Stand on the Natchez Trace, but that seems to have been elsewhere in the state. I also found another news result talking about a car wreck in the area referring to it as a community. This refers to the Buzzard Roost community. No GNIS entry for Buzzard Roost, Buzzard's Roost, or Buzzardroost in the correct county. I found one piece in the Clarion Ledger talking about two communities named Buzzard Roost in Mississippi as part of a listicle of weird MS place names, but the page had lots of image and my internet is slow today, so I couldn't get it to load. From what I've been able to gather, it's on Mississippi Highway 26 across the river from Benndale, at a crossroads. Will check on the topos to see what I can find. Hog Farm Bacon 17:39, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Internet is too slow to load the most recent topos, but the ones I can get don't show much of anything across the river from Benndale (the area is a conservation tract). The source in the article just mentions a Buzzard Roost Road in the conservation tract, but nothing else. I've seen no evidence of a legally recognized populated place, so WP:GEOLAND does not seem to be met. Likewise, given the difficulty in finding more than just a namedrop of this place, WP:GNG does not seem to be met either. Willing to reconsider this position if someone with more reliable internet can turn up better coverage. Hog Farm Bacon 17:54, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Hog Farm: The subject is listed at George County, Mississippi and when I can I will add references there so I don't think a ATD is needed. I am all about historical locations, historical lumber towns, and railroads but at present this is a dictionary entry. There were many lumber companies in the area and this location might have had a lumber mill and possible a spur (dummy line) to Lucedale, possibly to the Mississippi Export Railroad or the old Gulf, Mobile & Ohio (GeeMO) but 1922 and 1945 maps didn't show it. Earlier history might have even included floating logs down the Pascagoula River. From 1899 (608 mills), to the boom from 1904 to 1915 (Mississippi ranked third in the U.S.), but anything before 1910 would have to be from the other relevant Counties from which George County was formed. However, I could only find one source about the subject. A lot of surmising for what has not yet been found. My search only involved 16 tabs and about 40 links, so not seriously in-depth, but I could find nothing of significance at this time for a stand alone article.

  • Delete without prejudice - Since the musician made his music before the Internet era, and his works may be in a different language, finding online media coverage is extremely unlikely. Searching under both "গোষ্ঠ গোপাল দাস" and "Goshtho Gopal Das" only reveals some YouTube uploads and minor social media discussion. Via a Google Books search I found his name listed very briefly in a publication from the India radio industry, and that's all. If he was truly as famous as the article says, his media coverage might be in old paper sources written in his homeland's native tongue. If anyone can find reliable sources of that nature, the article could be keep-able, but for now there is simply not enough to work with. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:10, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not a notable software product. No independent references, and website in the article is dead. Article is promotional and makes no claims of notability. power~enwiki (π, ν) 01:07, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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. czar 01:22, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Looking on the ground there is some sort of a facility with a food truck on the corner. It seems to be some sort of agricultural thing but I haven't be able to get details. Searching is absolutely hopeless because of the huge oil field and the Lakeview Gusher, the latter being a good ways west. What I see from topos and aerials does not indicate a settlement, so at this point I'm going with non-notable. Mangoe (talk) 01:05, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A pair of sidings, one of which serves a J G Boswell tomato processing plant. That's what old topos show, as well, minus the plant. Not a notable spot. Mangoe (talk) 00:56, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Draftify: Seems a little bitey to WP:PROD the article less than ten minutes after creation. Maybe give them time to add references first rather than immediately trying to get rid of it? Since the game obviously exists, it's only polite to give the creator time to fix it. They seem to be pretty new here. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 01:04, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. If it was a PROMO article, that'd be different, but this game is well out-of-print. Perhaps the author has sources in mind. Perhaps they had sources in mind, but have now been discouraged by the instant prod. ApLundell (talk) 01:23, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I did a little cleanup on the article. It's not much, but it's what I can do right now. Finding exact refs for those reviews will take time as they would have all been in print, not online. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 01:54, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. There is not a single mention in presently available sources and Archive.org shows mere sales lists, not editorial features. It is unlikely that PAPERONLY will save this. IceWelder [✉] 21:20, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
How confident are you that Archive org's search engine has correctly made the text of Japanese-language print resources searchable? Because the sources would be in Japanese. ApLundell (talk) 04:01, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify for now as per above comments. If not sources are found in the next 6 months, it can be G13'd. Onel5969 TT me 15:12, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
