  • Speedy redirect to D.I.C.E.. Content already exists there. Ajf773 (talk) 23:50, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There was a Merge Proposal by Dronebogus on 13 July 2020, but no one responded in that week, so Dronebogus boldly moved the content back to the main page. The series has 40 episodes but no detailed summaries, so either keep separated per size split and remove the episode list from the main, or merge/direct to main.

Fails WP:NGRIDIRON, offseason member only. Placed on injured reserve before he ever played a game, and he then retired, having never played a pro game. His college career doesn't meet the bar of WP:NCOLLATH.

Fails WP:NGRIDIRON, as the Champions Indoor Football league does not seem to be fully professional by Wikipedia standards.

Thoroughly non-notable American football player. His college career is of no particular interest (the college careers of long snappers almost never are), and he only ever played in a team in a United Football League incarnation, which is not fully professional. As a result, he fails WP:NGRIDIRON. The closest thing I can find to significant coverage is the Newsweek article, which only mentions him as an example of a player who took a nasty blow to the head.

Your comment calling the article creation a "ridiculous charade" is uncalled for, unproductive, and is not a reason to delete. I still believe the subject is not notable and the article should be deleted, but I see no evidence of prejudice against the article creator.

Another minor rail station incorrectly identified by GNIS as a community. Durham calls it a locality on the Sacramento Northern Railroad.

  • Keep I think this is a keep, a notable populated place which passes WP:GEOLAND.
  1. Check out the map showing a place with commercial businesses and an elementary school
  2. See that they have a park called Ygnacio Valley Park Ygnacio Valley Park is a park in Contra Costa County and has an elevation of 69 feet. Ygnacio Valley Park is situated in Meinert, close to Saint Francis of Assisi School.
  3. Meinert and Sierra, Concord Website
I stopped looking after these few hits. Lightburst (talk) 23:00, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please look more carefully. The area you are pointing out on Google maps is Concord. Ygnacio Valley Park is in Concord as you can see on this city website: [3]. The other two sites you have found are just clickbait sites . Enter any obscure location and the same or similar sites get generated. Glendoremus (talk) 00:07, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I will look into this with my newspaper account later. I am puzzled by the map. Perhaps the road is a close spelling here on this map. Lightburst (talk) 00:28, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Older topos show a few large buildings along the tracks, consistent with a small rail stop. This is very similar to Bancroft, a nearby location that was recently deleted. Coverage is mainly found in sources that scrape data from sources like GNIS and Wikipedia; these soures are generally not reliable. –dlthewave
  • delete It started out life as a junction on the Sacramento Northern line, but the branch died early (in 1925). Older aerials show two largish buildings on the north side, but sources indicate they were for a pear packing facility and may have and nothing to do with the railroad; in any event, the "station" was a simple shelter like those seen at other points on the line. There was no community around until suburbanization rolled over the the orchards that formerly surrounded the spot, and I see no indication that anyone thinks of this even as a neighborhood.

Non-notable song, fails WP:NSONG, nothing written about it in depth, just passing mentions in the context of other Doors works such as the album or the A-side single "Riders on the Storm". Merge to the album article, L.A. Woman. Binksternet (talk) 22:17, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Read WP:NSONG and tell us how it meets the requirements. Binksternet (talk) 09:35, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge or Delete Doesn't meet NSONGS: it's only mentioned in album reviews/analyses and is not "the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label". —Ojorojo (talk) 13:55, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Notability is not inherited regardless of the popularity of the A-side or album; the four sentences in the UCR source are within the context of the L.A. Woman album; Manzarek (Doors keyboardist) and Densmore (group drummer) (& Botnick, the album producer) are not "independent of the band"; biographers often title chapters after songs, but Jones doesn't mention it in the 8-page google preview. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:10, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I never said that the notability was inherited, just stating a fact. As an example, most Beatles and Rolling Stones songs have articles, even deep cuts. I'm not saying this isn't justified, just that there are sources to support the articles, much like this one. With regards to the book, the song is discussed in the preview last time I checked, and there is more that is not in the preview. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 01:55, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wikipedia:Other stuff exists is not a good argument in a deletion discussion. Deep cuts of albums should have something related to WP:GNG at the very least (multiple in-depth mentions in the literature), and WP:NSONGS if there's a chart status or sales certification or YouTube view count, etc. Otherwise, the song can be very adequately described in an album article, or the artist article. Binksternet (talk) 02:51, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Given the sources that are already in the article, and the likelihood that more offline sources exists (after all, this is a 50 year old song by a band that attracted a lot of attention), deletion would not be appropriate. Redirection or merger could be appropriate given the current state of the article. I notice that the AfD rationale requests merger and not deletion so I am not sure why the merger request process was not used. Rlendog (talk) 15:41, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a questionably notable list of hospitals in Angola. It only contains four items. Two of which are red links and the other two are to non-English articles. If I remember correctly, Wikipedia requires at least one blue link in a list for it to be notable or the list should be taken as a whole. I guess having blue links to non-English articles counts as one blue link, but it doesn't seem like the correct way for a list to be notable. Adamant1 (talk) 22:14, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep or merge: We have set up standards for List of hospitals at the country level. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Hospitals/Tutorials#Notability In cases where there are only a few hospitals of note, they are listed in the Lists of hospitals in Continent article or the Healthcare in Country article and there is a Redirect for List of hospitals in Country. I did not know at first whether there were a lot of hospitals in Angola, so I started with a stand alone article since there were at least four. Please don't delete this article unless the hospitals are merged into either the Healthcare in Angola or Lists of hospitals in Africa articles. There may be other notable hospitals in Angola that don't currently have articles in any language. Some more research will be required to find them. The goal of the project is to have either an articl or redirect for each country. WP:HOS -- Talk to G Moore 02:13, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is no article Healthcare in Angola. It's a redirect. Our coverage of the subject is non-existent. Deleting this list is not helpful. Rathfelder (talk) 17:51, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd be totally fine with a redirect to a hospitals in Africa article or something. If the only two blue linked sources aren't English language articles then there shouldn't be an English language list about it IMO though. Since its not a notable enough topic to English speakers. Id love to see a policy or discussion about creating lists of articles in multiple langauges though or where the languages aren't the defualt of whatever Wikipedia language the article is being created in. I've personally never seen a list like that. So I assume its not usually something that's done. Adamant1 (talk) 09:22, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The topic is notable per WP:LISTN – see BBC, for example. The topic should therefore be retained for improvement per WP:ATD; WP:IMPERFECT and WP:PRESERVE. Andrew🐉(talk) 11:41, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    What about the fact that it's not blue linked to any English language articles? That's the whole point in lists. --Adamant1 (talk) 11:46, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    No, it's not the whole point nor is it our policy. We have lots of lists where none of the entries are articles. What we have here is just half-baked but that's ok because it is our policy that it's ok to build up pages from an incomplete and imperfect start. Andrew🐉(talk) 15:04, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Two things Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Lists says about stand alone list articles "The items on these lists include links to articles in a particular subject area." So yes it is part of the guideline that lists have links to articles. Like I said, that's the point in them. Otherwise, the guideline wouldn't say it is. Also, WP:NOTESAL says "The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable." It's not clear in this case that the items in the list are "notable as a set", because it's not how the sourcing discusses them. Therefore, the only other way the list would be notable is if some of the items are documented. So, 100% if there are blue links matters for this list. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:24, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    That's not the rule. There is no rule that lists must contain a bluelink. See in particular WP:CSC #2, "Every entry in the list fails the notability criteria." That would be impossible if bluelinks were required. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:09, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep One on German Wikipedia seems notable, as a large hospital with heaps of press coverage, I can just translate that actually if the lack of blue links are getting you down. Seems adequately sourced. Arguments made by Andrew and G Moore are appropriate re conservation of the list. PainProf (talk) 02:02, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is no policy that any article has to be notable to English speakers. Notability is not affected by the language of sources. Rathfelder (talk) 17:47, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    As was posted in the admin noticeboard, it matters as far as the burden of proof that the source is reliable is on the person posting it, and there isn't a way to determine the reliability of a source you can't read. Which ultimately has nothing to do with language of the source. Ultimately, I could care less what language something is in, but I do care if it's reliable or not. I agree with you outside of that though. Hopefully the whole language discussion is done now. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:45, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The policy is that "There should be a list article for every country or state with hospitals." Rathfelder (talk) 21:25, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    I assume your talking about something having to do with Wikipedia:WikiProject_Hospitals? If so, I wouldn't call a goal of a Wikiproject a "policy." Plus, they still have notability guidelines for things. --Adamant1 (talk) 21:28, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    BTW, Wikipedia:WikiProject_Hospitals' policy on lists is clearly laid out on the projects talk page and it pretty mirrors that of the normal notability guidelines for lists. No where does it say there that there should be a list article for every country or state with hospitals. It is mentioned in the tutorials, but it says that lists should contain a reference for each hospital listed and that notable hospitals should have links to the article about the hospital. No where is implied that the normal notability guidelines for lists don't apply to ones about hospitals though. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:58, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Healthcare in Angola. Only a few hospitals require no separate article. Bvatsal61 (talk) 08:26, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I dont see how such a merger would help the development of our coverage of Angola. Rathfelder (talk) 11:29, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Personally, I see the fact we have one article about a Hospital in Angola, a country of 30 million, to be somewhat embarrassing and before Rathfelder's work we had none, merging a list here would not help. Similarly, no other country has their hospitals listed at Hospitals in Africa, it seems preposterous to have a list of all the hospitals in a continent. I think we should be working to improve our coverage of African medical facilities rather than removing what little information we had. PainProf (talk) 12:55, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Merging to Healthcare in Angola would be a good comprise. It would help that article not get deleted in the future due to it's bad sourcing. Plus, having the list in it would be helpful information and there's zero reason to duplicate it. It's not like a separate list can't be created if, or when, there's an actual need to have one. As it is though, it's a useless [[WP:CFORK]. BTW, it's kind of circular/bad reasoning to keep a list because coverage of the topic is poor. The point in lists isn't to catalog what subjects need expanding. Plus, there could be completely legitimate reasons why there aren't English articles on Angolan hospitals. My guess is that there probably was some at one point but they got deleted. Either that or they just weren't created in the first place due to lack of good sources.

Were does it say anywhere that all extant hospitals meet both GNG and WP:NCORP? They are no different then any other organization when it comes to notability. Even Wikiproject Hospitals has notability guidelines and they don't include all extant hospitals being notable. Adamant1 (talk) 05:00, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Clearly notable list that passes WP:LISTN. It might could be argued that an individual hospital may or may not be notable, lists of hospitals in a clearly defined geographic or political region are automatically going to be considered notable, even if NONE of the individual hospitals are. WP:LISTN clearly states that not every (nor any) entry must be notable (although it is within editor discretion to limit the list to notable examples). Lists are both navigation tools and informational tools, and lists of hospitals for other countries already have consensus as an acceptable article type. In fact, we have lists of lists of hospitals, Lists of hospitals in Africa and even Lists of Lists of Lists, ie: Lists of hospitals. The only question is if there are enough hospitals in Angola to populate a List page, and even Google Maps will answer that as "yes" in about 5 seconds (hint: yes). Policy is crystal clear here, the list passes the criteria for inclusion. Dennis Brown - 00:40, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

University Hospital of Oran[edit]

University Hospital of Oran (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable Algerian hospital that has lacked references since 2014. I couldn't find anything about it that would pass WP:GNG in a search either and even the Arabic language article only has one source that doesn't seem to even be about the hospital. So, I doubt there's anything in-depth and reliable about it out there. The article does it has 600 to 2000 beds. Which might be a lot, but it's a pretty vague range to make any judgement on IMO. Plus, it's not sourced reliably or at all. Which it would have to be for anyone to use it as a keep justification and it wouldn't come before the WP:GNG guidelines if it was anyway. As an alternative to deletion it could be merged with Oran 1 University. Since they are associated and that seems to be the precedent. Although, I'm not really sure what would be merged.

  • A hospital this size - especially affiliated to a university - is liable to be notable. The question is not whether it is known to Google. Our coverage of Algeria is dire. Only 2 articles about hospitals in the country. We should be slow to delete one of them. Perhaps if we looked under its proper name, Oran-Mohamed-Boudiaf Hospital, we might find more articles? Google gives me 58,900 results. For a start this is the site of La Peste. That has generated coverage on its own. Rathfelder (talk) 23:24, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • keep A good place to do WP:before for hospitals is Google scholar. Frequently there will be academic studies on the patients and these are normally in English. The large number of studies on patients from this hospital indicates it's notability. As does the large size. A hospital with 1000 beds likely sees > 500,000 patients per year and is inherently notable. PainProf (talk) 00:42, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
To both of you, for one there has to be in-depth coverage of the hospital. That there was studies done on the patients there is totally irrelevant and trivial since its a university hospital. That's litterally what university hospitals do and its extremely trivial since it applies to all of them. Not that you provided any sources about it anyway, but it wouldn't matter if you do. Second, you can't claim something is notable based on an unverifiable, unsourced fact. So either provide a source that it has 1000 beds or its not a valid keep reason. Neither is keeping it because "Google won't have any results since its Algeria." It's not Wikipedia if the topic is obscure and the notability guidelines have to be followed. Plus you say there's 58,900 Google search results. You can't cite the large number of potential hits and then say it should be kept because only 2 of them are articles shows its obscure. That's the definition of not being notable, for any subject. BTW, there's already a Arbabic article for these. So by no means would deleting the English article wipe Algerian topics or even this hospital from Wikipedia. Adamant1 (talk) 09:11, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I would argue all University hospitals which have published a significant number of papers are inherently notable. By the way it is important to know that not all Algerians speak Arabic and an article existing in Arabic is no reason to delete here I think quite the opposite actually. Should we be deleting French and German hospitals too on that basis. Many of them have no coverage in English. The other Wikipedia's are independent of each other. Afd is not cleanup. A University hospital should never be merged to the university unless it can be shown to be a part of the organisation. In many countries they are not for example Cambridge University Hospitals NHS foundation trust is affiliated to Cambridge but completely independent from a financial and governance perspective.

There really seem to be a lot of sources in arabic. Perhaps we should actually just be asking an Arabic speaker to look at them. I am not confident enough in Google translate for the sources I see. The English sources on PubMed indicate this is a large hospital due to the broad range of topics and large number of papers. The journals are actually generally good ones so I don't have any wjalms with that. It clearly exists and from the number of different diseases studied is likely to have in excess of 20 wards with all major specialities represented. PainProf (talk) 14:08, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Re "Should we be deleting French and German hospitals too", the problem isn't that this is an "Arabic" hospital. It's that there aren't any sources in English to determine if it's actually notability enough to warrant an article in the English Wikipedia or not, and like you say yourself the language barrier is barrier to figuring it out. The same would go for a French, German, or hospital in any other language if all other things were the same. We can't rightly keep an article about somewhere that we can't determine the notability of just because we don't speak the language or say that the only way notability can be determined is if an Arabic speaker gets involved in the AfD. If that's the case, then all more reason it should be deleted IMO. I don't think it would be valid to create a bunch of Portuguese stub articles from only English sources and then be like "Sorry you don't speak English. I guess you can't delete them." --2600:6C52:6B80:DBB:9890:309:9E58:5AD7 (talk) 14:50, 20 July 2020 (UTC) --Adamant1 (talk) 14:52, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There is zero requirement for English sources. English sources are preferred but not essential where they are unavailable. In this case English sources are available. The different Wikipedias are also different in culture for citation etc. A good example is if you look on most Wikipedia's you will find for instance science articles rely entirely on English sources because science is generally published in English. Many articles are also translated from other languages. Frequently AFDs close as keep where certain languages are difficult to parse through Google translate. Regardless from the search it is clearly a large teaching hospital which is confirmed by the sources in PubMed (which are largely in English) is notable. The sources are respectable academic journals and furthermore the Newsweek article I pointed out shows international coverage. PainProf (talk) 20:18, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, no where ever have I claimed there is a requirement for English sources. Second, the discussion is about the size of the hospital and there no articles, English or otherwise that discuss it. Cool that there's papers on Pubmed about research that took place there, but research papers aren't usable for notability because they are primary sources and don't qualify as in-depth coverage of the hospital. Plus, that the hospital is large because of how much research took place there is your own opinion and notability isn't based on opinions. The standard isn't "large" anyway. It's 500 beds or more and no source, English or otherwise, says how many beds the place has. Period. Again, it's a research hospital. Research hospitals do research. It doesn't mean anything when it comes to notability. The only thing that does is in-depth coverage in multiple reliable sources. That's it, and this hospital lacks it. Even if we knew it had more then 500 beds we would still need the in-depth coverage in multiple reliable sources. The Newsweek article doesn't cut it because it isn't even about the hospital. The only time it's mentioned is in the caption of a picture. Even if it did though, it still wouldn't be enough. Again, the Pubmed research papers do absolutely nothing for notability. Zip, zero, silch, nada, null, ゼロ, Vinduḥ, nothing!! --Adamant1 (talk) 21:49, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You say above "It's that there aren't any sources in English to determine if it's actually notability enough to warrant an article in the English Wikipedia or not". That is not the policy. Sources do not have to be in English. PubMed is a very reliable source. Its not primary research into the hospital. Teaching hospitals are generally notable precisely because they generate research which is reported in independent reputable sources. They employ researchers and academics who are also reported. This is not an argument about whether the article is accurate, or whether the contents of it are true or referenced. Its an argument about whether the hospital is a notable organisation. And if its notable in the Arabic wikipedia its notable in English. Rathfelder (talk) 22:49, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Further to this I have found a report by Finpro which has been referenced by the UK government who I believe would have vetted the report. It is available online here: https://www.slideshare.net/mobile/FinproRy/algeria-health-sector-overview-heli-pasanenzentz-finpro The description is of a large university hospital with 10 operating theatres 1200 beds, 40 departments, built at a cost of 120 million euros. Cited in this country of origin report by the home office.https://www.refworld.org/pdfid/50ffeb2d2.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjcm5_v9tzqAhXug-AKHfCNCEwQFjAMegQIAhAB&usg=AOvVaw1Qh5NnV54yM1fW2AdKFFn4. I think those sources are good additions. PainProf (talk) 22:58, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I also added the plague outbreak, as one of only 10 outbreaks in the last 20 years that could even have been independently notable. PainProf (talk) 00:02, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No, I said there wasn't any sources in English or any other language to establish and there wasn't. The Arabic article only cites one extremely trivial source. So I was 100% correct. And Pubmed can be a reliable source to use in articles. That's different then using it in an AfD though. Just like Twitter is OK to use in articles, but it's not OK to use in AfDs to establish something notability. Reliability of a source and notability of topic are two completely different things and standards. Your really gas lighting the hell out of this. Feel free to show me anywhere that says teaching hospitals are generally notable. All your doing is giving your opinion repeatedly and your not baking it up with anything. Just like your whole thing that it must be notable because there's an Arabic article on it. WP:OSE isn't a valid argument. Also, cool you found sources how many beds the hospital has. Neither one can be used to establish notability though because they are primary sources. It should be pretty obvious that a random slide presentation isn't usable to establish notability. So, find some actually reliable in-depth secondary sources. Otherwise, this isn't notable. Until then, I'm done with the discussion because it's completely ridiculous and your seriously committing WP:BLUDGEON by continuing it. Especially by continuing to post sources that are so obviously not usable to establish notability. It's completely ridiculous that you posted a source in the article that doesn't even talk about the hospital to. The "plague" articles don't even discuss it in depth. They aren't even about the hospital!! It's pretty clear you don't give a crap about the guidelines or doing this the proper way. So, I'm done with this. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:05, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • When I look for Arabic sources I find plenty. Detailed discussion every week of events in the hospital. But I am not sure that the title of the article matches the name by which the hospital is known in Arabic. Rathfelder (talk) 08:13, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think a more correct name is CHU Hospital of Oran, there is a second notable hospital EHU hospital. They appear to be highly related hospitals. I think the confusion is partly because the French words translate the same with only a minor difference. Maybe A good name for the article is Oran public hospitals as these are the only 2 and establish redirects. http://www.dsp-oran.dz/index.php/structures-sanitaires/ehu see this website which seems to be the source we needed. Once I add that in it is much easier to describe the sources. All of the work on the page is currently describing CHU hospital. The arabic titles also have a name attached.PainProf (talk) 12:40, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just that the subject has been discussed in significant fashion. Plus we don't know how much he is discussed the scholar articles, as they are behind paywalls. It could be even more than the preview text show. I'm not *that* invested in saving the article to pay the fees to access them. But there multiple different articles there where he as the very least mentioned in books about porn and sex work, in addition to said SIGCOV in said book above and other mentions in at least three other books. Not "nothing" at all. BTW, it's not a big accomplishment to get a porn-related article deleted on here. Countless ones have been deleted over the years because porn stars are rarely covered in any meaningful way in the mainstream press. John Pack Lambert always votes delete on porn articles and voiced disdain for the amount of porn articles on wikipedia, so he isn't exactly unbiased on the subject. Because there is adequate sources out there for Barry. Here is one other from the Associated Press that bothered to get his feedback on the European porn market, the only American performer they bothered to get feedback from for their article. 1 And it shouldn't be dismissed the he was inducted into the GayVN Hall of Fame (along with some acting related ones in the industry). It's only been said significant porn awards *alone* aren't enough to prove notability. All together, it's pretty obvious he was notable within the porn industry, and there is enough sourcing out there to make good article for him. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 22:24, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • language barer, my bad, I meant there is only one that is more than a "passing mention". 7 pages on that book are a source that can be used but it is not enough to prove notability. everything else presented here, included the new links you gave, do not passes mentioning. we do not count how many times his name appears in a google search, or how many books contain it, we need a few good sources that cover the subject. you are basically are telling us that "may be" there are better sources around and you perceive the subject as notable. i have nothing against porn bios, I created one myself. Still, i feel that we do not need to take everything we can find on google and make an article out of it. any bio here should be of people who are significant in their field. a niche as small as gay porn should have a few représentant and that is it. porn actor are "covered in any meaningful way in the mainstream press" when they are notable, and we have a few examples here on wikipedia. If we keep an article basing on this kind of argument I want to have an article about my dog as to me he is notable and who knows, may be there are sources. as long as we keep article basing on this kind of argument wikipedia will be never taken seriously. the moment I came across article like this I know wikipedia is a joke. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 09:37, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment I was referring that he might have been further discussed in the scholar article than the preview text google search previewed may show. There's always possibilities that there offline sources, as is the case of any subject. Not everything is available online or for free. I'm obviously not the only one who thought he was notable in his field, the article has lasted here on Wikipedia for 14 years with no attempts to delete it until now, as I mentioned earlier Jeffrey Escoffier's book Bigger Than Life: The History of Gay Porn Cinema from Beefcake to Hardcore (one of, if not the most extensive book written on gay porn) called him "one of the top porn stars" (in the gay industry presumably) and wrote about his career in-depth, and the GayVN Awards judges thought his career was significant to induct him into their Hall of Fame in 2008. If you want to mention WP:ANYBIO it could be argued he meets #1 of it's criteria for his Hall of Fame induction, Best Supporting Actor wins and Best Actor nominations. He had a long, prolific career and not only appeared in gay porn, but straight, bisexual, transsexual, fetish/kink porn as well. Not a big stretch at all to think he had significant career in his field. And he also worked behind the scenes directing, and in production section as a talent & casting manager. The gay porn industry isn't as big as the straight industry, but it certainly isn't a small, niche one either. So, let me get this straight (and I apologize if it's not what you meant), you think there should only be a few gay porn star articles on Wikipedia? That's an extreme view, in my opinion, and I'm sure by others as well. And I'm guessing one of those few should remain should be Carlo Masi. Hmmm, interesting. Well, since AVN articles are good enough for the Masi article, these AVN ones are for Barry's as well, furthering the coverage he's gotten to further pass the GNG. 1, 2. If you think Wikipedia is "a joke" then why are you still using and editing on it? GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 05:49, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment well, "it might" is never a good way to defend an article... there might be more sources as well as you and I might be aliens who want to conquer earth planet. Porn Prizes have been deprecated, mostly because most of the time they were given basing on how much a company spent on advertising through certain channels, most of the time they were meaning less (this is why there are so little articles telling about the winners, mostly you can find only the winner lists). Bigger Than Life: The History of Gay Porn Cinema from Beefcake to Hardcore is a short cover of the subject, 7 pages. it is a starting point but not enough. the AVN article if they are significan cover of the subject have a certain weight (not much) but those you mention are very, very short article and reading them they look like "sponsored articles". the fact that the article was on wikipedia for ages doesn't prove anything, there is a lot of garbage we should get rid of. you claim a lot of notable stuff but where are the sources? notability has to be established basing on sources not on your personal perception. Speaking of Carlo Masi, his notability doesn't relies on the AVN articles (they are in the sources only to prove fact not to sustain notability) but it relies on a book, his biography, written by the most important Italian writer and plenty articles on Italian (and not Italian) news paper that in Italy have the same reputation as The New York Times (La Repubblica, Corriere della Sera, Stampa), I can see you don't know them but if you are willing to it is easy to figure out that those are the best main stream sources. plus, all those articles are entirely about Masi, he is not just a part of them but he is the focus. if you feel that Carlo Masi notability is not proved by the sources you can still nominate him. I feel that only porn actor who are notable should be on wikipedia, especially now that every horny guy with a cell phone can become a porn actor. wikipedia is considered mostly unreliable, it is considered unreliable by wikipedia itself (you can not use wikipedia as a source) I hope we can improve it but every time we publish an article with bad sourcing we hurt wikipedia reputation. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 13:26, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
comment I think I've stated my case well enough why Barry's article should be kept. The GNG isn't be all and end all of the deciding of an article being kept or deleted and opinions vary on how much coverage is needed to meet it. I believe it meets it as did one other voter. I'm planning expanded the article with refs in the next few days when I have time. I don't have a problem with the Masi article and wasn't even suggesting it be deleted and it's sourcing is way more than adequate, but he was not really most notable porn star, and lets get real, there was very little meaningful coverage out there before the scandal broke out about him being a porn star turned teacher and the press that received and he chose to follow the publicity from that into more coverage from the other opportunities that popped up from that. Good for him, though. But not a reasonable standard to hold other porn star articles up to. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 15:21, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
comment opinions... this is why wikipedia is so unreliable, because some people believe that these things can be decided basing on opinions rather than facts. don't you even try, first Carlo Masi is notable as a person and not only as a porn star, second carlo masi as a porn star is way more notable than Mr Barry. as a metter of fact, in the article there are about 20 sources from the time he was a porn actor (not counting all the sources I didn't use, hundreds) while for Mr. Barry we can not find three decent sources. facts not opinions --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 16:15, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
comment more time to add articles, here we go again. go ahead, the closer will give you more time because they always do but I know by all the previous experiences I had that if you had any significant source you would have pulled out by now instead of ridiculously comparing the subject to Mr.Masi. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 16:19, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ok look, I wold like you to come to my page and talk about keeping or deleting articles because I wanna know your point of view. I just want to get rid of those whose notability can not be established by the sources but at this point I want to know why you want to keep mostly all of them. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 19:19, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say I wanted to keep all of them. I haven't even participated in any of your many other porn AFD's other than this one and the Johnny Hazzard and Dylan Vox ones (Hazzard was kept from the sourcing and reasoning provided, Vox is to be determined). Because I disagreed and found some good sources. And I rarely even in porn AFD's in general because it's generally a waste of time. The vast majority are always deleted. I have participated in quite a few mainstream entertainer AFD's, providing sources and reasoning why they should be kept, and the majority of those were. Not really interested trying to talk you out of deleting porn articles (really don't feel like it), you seem to feel very strongly about it - do what you want. Spent too much time arguing here already. However, if I feel there is notability and find some decent to good sources out there, I may voice my take. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 01:09, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
actually as far as I can see the deletion process is pretty random. I saw articles with pretty similar sourcing been kept and being deleted. I feel that porn bios are more likely to be kept. it is not a waste of time and look, this article is very much likely to be kept. I am on the delete side but I have no problems admitting that this one is on the edge. If it will not be deleted it will come out with your new sources, so it wasn't a waste of time at all, the article has been improved. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 09:12, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
comment I am going to use some of the sources listed above. Didn't say I had any new sources to pull out. Go ahead and keep nominating porn articles for deletion all you want even "to a few to represent it" as you said above. Like I said, it's not a big accomplishment on here to get porn articles deleted on here. The vast majority that were created already have been, most deservedly so. You don't have the final say on the outcomes though. Be glad your article wasn't deleted. Have fun creating scores of other porn AFD's. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 17:08, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The subject lacks the notability to justify an article. Maybe sources could have been found that would do it, but I wasn't able to find anything and it seems like the people who were on the keep side spun their wheels attacking the nominator instead of finding them. Sad! --Adamant1 (talk) 08:57, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Um, sources were provided above. Did you look at them? Plus the subject won multiple major awards in his field. I don't think I've seen an consensus on here that major porn awards couldn't be a factor in determining notability. If it has been, and I missed it, please show me where on here this was stated. I've seen arguments in porn AFD's after PORNBIO was deprecated (which I have mixed feelings on) that awards alone weren't enough, but not that they couldn't be a factor at all. I can agree with that assessment if there's no good sources out there. I don't feel I was personally attacking the nominator (I don't have anything against him as a person, but obviously don't agree on some points), but some of his comments annoyed me and triggered me to get testy a few times. Definitely not something I normally do on here, and I apologize. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 11:53, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
GoldenAgeFan1, the standard for AfDs isn't "sources." It's "in-depth coverage in multiple reliable sources." The key thing about this is the "multiple" and "in-depth." One in-depth book mention, whatever the depth of it is, just doesn't cut it and everything else is trivial. Sorry, but that's just a fact. Unless your ToughPig and ignore the guidelines apparently. "But, but, but, he's a porn star!" is no excuse. The crap thing about voting like that is that this will likely just come up for another AfD in a few months if people don't vote properly now based on what the actual facts are. Not doing massively disrepects the process and time of everyone here. Even if it might lead to the article being kept for the short term, and rarely disregarding the guidelines in a vote does anyway. Mostly it just leads to petty bickering and a contentious work place. As can be seen by most of the AfD discussions ToughPig is involved in. Adamant1 (talk) 17:07, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As I argued before, it isn't be all and end all of notability. Articles have been kept when there were other factors involved, such as winning major awards in your field. Here are two examples of AFD that I participated in that were kept when there was little coverage out their on there (and less than Barry had, with it came the quality of the coverage) and they certainly didn't have SIGCOV in multiple sources. I was later able to find an additional good sources in the first case that wasn't out there when the AFD closed. [6], 2 GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 01:08, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: As GoldenAgeFan1 points out, the subject is covered extensively in an independent, published book, Bigger Than Life: The History of Gay Porn Cinema from Beefcake to Hardcore. This is not the same as the AVN posts or porn awards usually cited in these discussions. In my opinion, a book like Bigger Than Life, presenting a historical overview of the subject, weighs very heavily in notability. Seven pages in that book is obviously non-trivial. — Toughpigs (talk) 14:40, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
But that book is it with the in-depth coverage isn't it? If so, you voting keep directly goes against the whole "Multiple in-depth sources" part of this. The person doesn't get a pass on it just because they are a porn actor. Adamant1 (talk) 17:07, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Rod Barry appears in quite a few books on the subject, for eacmples: The Sexual Self: The Construction of Sexual Scripts, Queer Communication Pedagogy, Bigger Than Life: The History of Gay Porn Cinema from Beefcake to Hardcore. He also meets WP:NACTOR, being in over 150 films, being chrnonicled in books of the period, and being inducted into the Hall of Fame of the most notable body in the gay film industry. This person is a recognised and noted part of the gay porn film industry. Britishfinance (talk) 20:24, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  1. the only information about the company is "CarSwitch.com, an online marketplace for certified used cars"
  2. is a press-release, complete with "supplied photo" of the owners of the company; it contains no independent information
  3. is about a different company; the information it gives about this one is "CarSwitch.com, a UAE platform for buying and selling certified used cars"; another sentence begins "Imad Hammad of CarSwitch.com was also set up, in 2016 ...", so is clearly not independent
  4. is a permanent dead link to a completely trivial award ("entrepreneur of the week", no less)
This is also – despite denial by the page creator – obviously undisclosed paid editing just as the previous version was.

Per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. The name "Takatika Grit theropod" never used in the literature. The remains from the deposit are not suggested to represent a single taxon and therefore the term "Takatika Grit theropod" is a misnomer and WP:OR.

  • Delete Merge/redirect - see below. Agree with nom; this article including its title is an interpretation of various publications, but does not represent a recognized (or even single) thing. Takatika Grit as a lagerstaette (I gather) would probably make a good article, and that's where I would merge this to. But in absence of such an article - delete. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 23:20, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I had wiki-trouble and folks helped by creating this 4th nomination and also added a CSD. Reviewed under new article curation process. No indication of wp:notability. Actually zero coverage by independent sources in the references given in the article (which aren't actually references) , and I found none in a search except some notes in blogs. Article was previously deleted twice (the 2nd closed on Fen 25th 2020) and then immediately created Feb 25th upon deletion. Possibly it should be a speedy closed and salted.

  • Weak keep per WP:WORDISSUBJECT: "such articles must go beyond what would be found in a dictionary entry (definition, pronunciation, etymology, use information, etc.), and include information on the social or historical significance of the term." which this (roughly) does and further sources do exist to improve it so I don't think WP:NOTDICT applies.

It may not cover them particularly well, but that isn't solved by deletion. Wug·a·po·des 20:17, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are articles about failure in several encyclopedias including the Encyclopedia of Educational Psychology; The Encyclopedia of Phobias, Fears, and Anxieties; Encyclopedia of Applied Psychology; Encyclopedia of Finance; Encyclopedia of Geomorphology; Encyclopedia of Heart Diseases; &c. Naturally these are not complete because this is a broad topic, which occurs in many contexts. This is not a reason to delete anything; it just means that we require care in presenting the topic.

@Another Believer: When determining whether to nominate this article for discussion, I was swayed by WP:EVENTCRITERIA stating: "Many events receive coverage in the news and yet are not of historic or lasting importance. News organizations have criteria for content, i.e. news values, that differ from the criteria used by Wikipedia and encyclopedias generally." However, I did not bundle this with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Donald Trump's Phoenix rally (June 2020) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Donald Trump's Wisconsin Tele-Rally because some editors may feel that the Tulsa rally was more important than others.

This is another group nomination of Lassen County "settlements" whose only sourcing is Durham's place names book, and whose only information (according to their articles) is that they were the names/sites of post offices. this blog has some more info on many if not most of them, and as a rule they are 4th class post offices with no other information than dates and postmasters. These could be located almost anywhere, including in stores, train stations, and even residences, and their names tended to change when they were moved about, but they have names only because the postal system required them. They are not villages or towns and are not notable. Again, if there's more info on one that I've missed, it can be dropped from the nomination. Mangoe (talk) 16:21, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Procedural Keep it is difficult to do a bulk deletion because several questionable articles in the AfD can sour the whole nomination. I find the following 4 places to be notable, or at least I question their inclusion in the bulk nomination. I did not find that the other entries are notable, however I may have missed something, there were 17 entries to research. I have a newspaper account so i was able to look back to news from turn of the century, which is not represented in google search.
  • Edgemont California was populated and appears to be a recognized place
  1. Here is an www article about the area, Used to be called Spoonville - name changed after they got a post office in 1913 (not really a ref)
  2. This article shows that there were residents of this area in the Lowell Sun Massachusetts newspaper in 1969.
  3. Here is an article, LA Times recognizes the place when reporting an earthquake in 2017.
  • Long Valley, Lassen County, California was once populated.
  1. Populated place per Notice for publication in the Daily Nevada State Journal 1902
  2. Here is an article about the railroad beginning at Long Valley in the Sacramento Daily Record Union 1885
  3. looks like a cattle farmer lived there in the Reno Weekly Gazette And Stockman 1889.
  • Glade california (I am not sure about this one being notable)
  1. One resident claimed to be from Glade california here is an article about the resident. in the Fowler Benton Review 1917.
  • Rayl, California
  1. Apparently there was a Rayl Hotel in Rayl Ca which burned down according to the Chicago Daily National Hotel Reporter 1922
  2. Carolyn Jorgenson lived there according to the Santa Ana Register 1920. Lightburst (talk) 18:28, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural keep - Ok, so I picked one place off this list--Datura--because I thought the name was unique and would be most likely to bring back some hits. I entered it into Google and the first book result (please note...THE FIRST RESULT!!!) says "A typical letter is from Tully DuVall of Datura, Lassen County". How can someone write a letter from a place no one lives in? A little farther down the page is this fellow writing a letter from the same non-existent community. Here is a blog about Datura that mentions some guy named William Henry Harrison Fuller who opened a store in Datura (I know, it's just a blog). So I Google the name "William Henry Harrison Fuller" and found this copy of the Lassen County Times that mentions Fuller and Datura. This NRHP nomination mentions a stage coach line from Susanville to Datura. I'm not saying Datura is notable; what I'm saying is I found this much stuff about the first place on the list I searched for in five minutes! At Centerville, California this same editor assured us "the only thing I am sure of is that this article needs to be deleted no matter what else gets done". The same at Sunnyslope, California. I'd be satisfied if the nominator just assured us they ran each of these places though Google before nominating them for deletion. This list is a gigantic and unnecessary make-work project.

Borderline, hence it sitting in CAT:NN for 11 years. Doesn't meet WP:BIO - he went on many expeditions and wrote one book, but none of that makes notability.

  • user:Hullaballoo Wolfowitz, I in no way said I 'can't evaluate claims of notability, and can't be bothered to do the research required.' I was making sure to emphasise not only my opinion and conclusion but also my shortcomings in terms of knowledge on this topic, as I am not trying to 'win' but to get an honest and fair consensus. Please assume good faith in other editors. It isn't easy to work through entries in CAT:NN, especially those more than 11 years old, as they are often not simple, hence many people passing them over, as they don't want to risk taking them to AfD, and then being attacked for it. Boleyn (talk) 20:10, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oh, stop whining. You didn't do anything remotely resembling a minimally adequate WP:BEFORE search. If you had even taken a first step t, say, evaluate the notability of the "Royal Orden" by clicking through to its LINKED wikipage, you'd have learned that the "Amarante" order was abolished in 1656, and that Nilson couldn't possibly have been a member. Obviously should have been removed from the article. The ru-wiki article is more extensive and includes, inter alia, the claim that the subject was cover-featured on Time magazine. A simple image search verifies this, although it was a scholastic edition (which typically features simplified content drawn from the main publication). A rather major sign of notability. Even the basic Google search turns up a lot of substantive coverage, including Financial Times, Wired, the New York Times, and NBC News (a Dateline feature, not merely a news story).
Face it. You did a piss-poor job here, because your fundamental approach to searching is gravely deficient. Just a cursory review of the sources cited in the article is nowhere near what WP:BEFORE calls for. What you are doing with nominations like this damages Wikipedia, both by jeopardizing worthwhile content and by causing other editors to waste disproportionate quantities of time cleaning up the messes you create rather than more productive activity. And falsely complaining that you're not being accorded good faith is utter effing nonsense. This is a WP:COMPETENCE issue, pure and simple, and you're way on the wrong side of it.

  • Retain As per "Hello" above, and also: This is a secondary school and it is being proposed that it be joined to an article on a school of tertiary education. There was hardly any previous discussion. A certified document on the separate incorporation of the school is here. Though public media in India are not easily accessed by us for such minority schools, I do not think we should hold that against this high school and deny it a place in Wikipedia.

Canvassing (requesting other to come here to protect the article) is not appreciated. The Banner talk 10:08, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I too don't appreciate that @ The Banner talk , But when someone continously and ""diligently ignores"" evidences otherwise and solely rests on a single news (which may have erroneous representation) and who doesn't understand other Hindi Resources provided and even ignores legal government resources stating otherwise , I was compelled to ask a local admin/moderator to provide his input . Sorry for Harsh Language . It also should not be appreciated someone sitting 1000 miles away dictates the terms even when he doesn't understand context .

        ** And why did I say Erroneous Representation because the news report mentions ---Quote -" Having started with just six students, the school soon grew to 
     accommodate many more children. It is still expanding, and has set up branches at ""Bhiwani"", Behror, Mahua and Nevta.---- There is not even a St. Xavier's School in Bhiwani which is directly controlled by Delhi Jesuits (http://www.delhijesuits.org/) .{{{In your report It is St. Xavier's High School, Bhiwani which is nowhere mentioned to be controlled by Delhi Jesuits directly  which may be a copycat or If I find resources about that I will update here}}}--The one which isa correct is --> St. Xavier's School, Bhiwadi  .News Reports may also have erroneous representation . You can't solely base your reference on one single report even when two hindi language news sources tell otherwise .

As far as resources I have both St. Xavier's High Schools Bhiwani and Mahua are copycats or otherwise .

Because the school that Delhi Jesuits run is in Mahwa, Rajasthan ( Dausa District Rajasthan ) and the one mentioned in your report is Mahua (community development block) which is in Bihar .

Similarly the school that Delhi Jesuits run is in Bhiwadi ( Alwar District Rajasthan ) and the one mentioned in your report is Bhiwani which is in Haryana .

In schools run by Delhi Jesuits and in their logos IHS will be present which is not present in both the above cases .(Mahua , Bihar and Bhiwani , Haryana).

The ones directly controlled by Delhi Jesuits are mentioned under heading Our Institutions mentioned in footer of Website ---> http://www.delhijesuits.org/

and are repeated here as such --

Our Institutions St. Xavier’s School, Rohini St. Xavier’s School, Civil Lines St. Xavier’s School, Bhiwadi St. Xavier’s School, Jaipur St. Xavier’s School, Behror


Another Information on Schools run By Delhi Jesuits is here --->http://www.delhijesuits.org/education/

You might have to view source code , page doesnot display all letters accurately ( at least here )

Quoted as such It runs six major schools and two upcoming schools. The oldest school in the Province is St. Xavier’s Sr. Secondary School, C-Scheme, Jaipur, established in 1942 while it was part of the Patna Province. The second oldest is St. Xavier’s Sr. Sec. School, Raj Niwas Marg, Delhi started in 1960. St. Xavier’s Sr. Sec. School, Bhiwadi, Rajasthan, St. Xavier’s Sr. Sec. School, Behror, Rajasthan, and St. Xavier’s Sr. Sec. School, Shahabad, Delhi were established more or less in the same time. The most recent major school is St. Xavier’s Sr. Sec. School, Nevta, Jaipur which was begun in 2014. The developing schools in the rural set up are St. Xavier’s School, Ropar, Punjab, and St. Xavier’s School, Mahua, Rajasthan. Altogether, the Province is catering to more than 15,800 school students.



Below is a personal question -- I apologize before hand for asking --

To @ The Banner talk---->

I had two questions as analogy - Why this page --> St. Xavier's School, Nevta and this page ---> St. Xavier's School, Bhiwadi and this page -----> St. Xavier's High School, Mahua are present there and why you intentionally are behind this page ?

I am too a volunteer -editor improving articles of my city and why I am adamant here because I used my time to gather resources for this article which are in line with Wikipedia's policies . And why to compare because you didn't intentionally understand provided resources . And hell bent on referring again again on a single report , mistakes in which were pointed out by me .I am improving articles in alwar district and I though the same here and did proper research ( thats why I am wasting my time here with you because I can't let go waste my time for want of a single admin who even doesn't know where jaipur or behror is )When trying to write about one of the first CBSE Schools in my city . I also don't have any interest in editing articles out of Rajasthan which is not my expertise .

https://www.xaviersbehror.org/

Official Website of the Page in Question


Note -- Secondary Sources are those which are not linked to the institution in question . Linked Secondary sources have some linkage to the institution in question .Primary sources are from the institution itself.


Arguments in Favor .


Authentic Goverment of Rajasthan Minority Department Document on School's Website mentions that School is controlled by Xavier Behror Educational Society ( XBES) .It is registerd in Behror under Income Tax Filings mentioned here therefore not linked to St. Xavier's Jaipur which is in Jaipur and managed by JXEA which is a different trust registered in Jaipur .Both St. Xavier's Nevta , St. Xavier's College Jaipur and St. Xavier's School Jaipur are managed by JXEA (Jaipur Xavier's Education Association ) .

The only link between XBES and JXEA is that they both are established by Delhi Jesuits and have members from it.

This wholly negates the argument that St. Xavier's Jaipur manages St. Xavier's Behror.

          Similarly for St. Xavier's Bhiwadi 


Government of India Body Central Board of Education which is affliating body for CBSE Schools all over India mentions this school as Independent and data there has no links with St. Xavier 's Jaipur .


There is no mention of St.Xavier's Behror on St. Xavier's Jaipur Official Website .Had it been a branch of it definitely there would have been Mention of ot there .


Delhi Jesuits Website mentions St. Xavier's Behror alongside St. Xavier's Jaipur implying that these are equivalent institutions under it .It nowehere mentions St. Xavier's Behror is a branch of St. Xavier's Jaipur.



Why argument in favor of Deletion or Redirect doesnot hold ground.

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/jaipur/Raje-to-launch-75th-anniversary-celebrations-of-St-Xaviers-School-Jaipur/articleshow/51012259.cms


Having started with just six students, the school soon grew to accommodate many more children. It is still expanding, and has set up branches at Bhiwani, Behror, Mahua and Nevta.

Factual Inaccuracies in above statement from Report -

There is no School of Delhi Jesuits in either Bhiwani (Which is in Harayana) or Mahua (Which is in Bihar).Arguments in favor of this statement -

→ All Delhi Jesuit Schools have IHS in their Official Logos .Check Logos of these two on their Official Websites .

→ There is no mention that these schools (Bhiwani- https://stxaviersbhiwani.in and Mahua - http://www.xaviersmahua.com/) are managed by Delhi Jesuit Society in their Websites while it is the norm in all other schools under Delhi Jesuit Province that they mention in their Websites that they are managed by Delhi Jesuits .Reporter included Copycat Names .

→ As mentioned here in Linked Secondary Source Delhi Jesuit province controls 6 Schools where Schools with similar names are Bhiwadi in Rajasthan and Mahwa in Rajasthan.

→ The other two schools mentioned in report are - Behror and Nevta .

St. Xavier's Nevta's Website ( https://www.stxaviersschoolnevta.in/ )mentions beforehand that it is a branch of St. Xavier's School Jaipur , While there is no such mention of In St. Xavier's Behror's Website .

Assuming that St. Xavier's Behror is a branch of St. Xavier's Jaipur and is managed by Same Delhi Jesuits as a policy it should also mention the same in its website because all other particulars in websites of these schools regarding Delhi Jesuits are same .

→ Secondary Linked Source clearly mentions that St. Xavier's Jaipur was the first institution established by it in 1942 then St. Xavier's Delhi → St. Xavier's Behror and St. Xavier's Bhiwadi and so on . Assuming that On basis Which St. Xavier's Delhi's Page and St. Xavier's Bhiwadi's Page is present on Wikipedia Same must be criteria for St. Xavier's Behror Since in One of the editir's World view these are branches of St. Xabier's Jaipur.But that is not true these all are independent institutions under Delhi Jesuits as mentioned here →



Now arguments other than for redirection --->

Finally arguments why a page of this School is importannt


Below info may not be neutral but might include my personal Inclinations --

I have been improving pages of Alwar district and especially of my home city under it .


I don't have any online source to point it but as far as according to offline sources this was the first CBSE afffiliated school in my city.

and this definitely requires a Wikpedia Page which May not be revelant to Someone 1000 miles away but is definitely relevant to Someone in Rajasthan.


From all evidence, the school is not just a branch of another high school but it branched off and became an independent school. Jzsj (talk) 15:56, 11 July 2020 (UTC) It had remained independent of St. Xavier's Jaipur since establishment nothing sort of Branched off.

From all the above arguments it is clear that St. Xavier's School, Behror deserves independent page . But I also mention that I don't have neutral viewpoint in this discussion Since I put this article up . But I also abhor if someone without proper context / information gets in between . If someone bases all of his arguments in single reference and ignores a heap of counter evidence .

I support RETAIN , it is worthy of it .

History of Seventh-day Adventist freedom of religion in Canada[edit]

There doesn't seem to be anything particularly notable about the history of religious freedom in Canada specifically as it relates to the Seventh-Day Adventists. As is made clear by all the primary sources in the article. Which includes a lot of references to Canadian laws about "religion", not Seventh-day Adventists per say, and quotes from the bible. Which really have nothing to do with them in particular, any more then it would for any other Christian denomination. Therefore, I think his article should either be deleted. Or at least whatever little content that might be relevant and worth saving could merged with Freedom of religion in Canada.

  • Keep or Merge This appears to be in the form of a WP:SPINOFF from History of freedom of religion in Canada and it does contain referenced material not in the parent article. E.g. the 1904 Lornedale Academy Workers arrests. Accordingly, it should either be merged to the parent or kept. 24.151.50.175 (talk) 18:20, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep --this is well referenced, meets GNG, and is too detailed for a merge in my opinion--but feel free to create more articles for other religions in Canada.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 04:06, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what articles about other religions in Canada have to do with it, but I think it would be more then short enough to merge once the stuff that isn't specific to the Seventh-day Adventists and information taken from un-reliable primary sources is removed from the article. A lot of those sources are what make up a lot of what your claiming is "well referenced" about the article. There's nothing well referenced about an article where 99% of the references are primary and mostly to the same source. --Adamant1 (talk) 22:55, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Anything pertaining to Sunday legislation in the Anglosphere is sufficiently specific to Seventh-day Adventists during the relevant parts of the 19th and 20th centuries. You'd have to either have been an Adventist or have some sort of experience paging through relevant old periodical stacks to know this from your background knowledge. Your claim that it is not specific to Adventists appears to be incorrect; little of the article should be considered nonspecific.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 03:31, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Just doing a basic glance at the artice there's the section on World Calendar Reform. Which is neither specific to Seventh-day Advetists or really has anything specific to do with Canada either. It actually really had nothing to do with freedom of religion. Let alone vould you call it "Seventh-day Adventist history." That's a whole section. Your claim that its that its specific to Seventh-day Adventists or that I'd have to be one to know all that is completely ridiculous. Same goes for much of the other topics in the article. For instance Lord's Day Acts have been passed all over the world, so its not a "Canada thing" and had nothing specific to do with Seventh-day Adventist except that they are one of many religions groups that do observe Sunday and they decided to get involved in it, but many groups did. So again its "Seventh-Day Adventist religious Canadian history." The laws effected even non-religious people. It would be the same for any global event that effected pretty much anyone. You could argue WW2 was Seventh-Day Adventist religious Canadian history if you wanted to ne that broad about it. That's not how Wikipedia and notability works though and I don't need to be a Seventh-day Adventist to know it. Adamant1 (talk) 08:21, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Restructure -- The Adventists have the practice of observing a sabbath on Saturday, whereas the rest of Christendom observes the Lord's Day on Sunday. I would prefer to see this restructured into an article on Lord's Day observance in Canada, which could then instance the Adventists falling foul of this as an example. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:20, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Adamant1 says that Seventh-day Adventists are "one of many religious groups that do observe Sunday". This is incorrect. The Seventh-day Adventists observe Saturday; that's pretty much their distinguishing feature. The Lord's Day Acts had special significance to Seventh-day Adventists, so Adamant1's argument that this information is irrelevant is based on a false premise. — Toughpigs (talk) 16:47, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The Seventh-day Adventist church was cited in the court decision that repealed the Lord's Day Act, a fairly significant judicial decision in Canadian history. As such, an article on Seventh-day Adventist religious liberty in Canada meets notability requirements, and this article lists numerous instances that were a prelude up to that court decision.

It isn't notable and doesn't make much sense to read. CupcakePerson13 (talk) 03:26, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Move: to "Mainas missions" or similar. "Maynas" is not the usual spelling in English, but "Mainas Missions" turns up a decent number of hits at Google Books. The reference to Samuel Fritz in the article checks out. The main source for the spelling "Pais de los maynas" appears to be this Spanish-language chronicle. Agree that in its current state the article needs lots of work, but given the number of sources I'd say it's notable -- see also this section of History of Ecuador, where the Jesuit missions are discussed in some detail – the section describes "Jesuit missions in Mainas or Maynas", and it would seem reasonable, given the sources on Google Books, to turn that reference into an article in its own right. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 07:08, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Note: How does it look now? (There's still more to do: Taylor's piece in this highly reputable source is rich with further info.) After taking a look at the sources while overhauling, I suggest a move to 'Mainas missions' with a redirect from 'Maynas missions', since 'Mainas' appears to be the more common spelling in English, at least in recent years.

Non-notable school. There was an AfD for this back in 2005 that resulted in keep. The keep votes seemed to mostly revolve around claims that all schools are notable and WP:OSE. As it currently stands, the article only cites two primary sources and is promotional in tone. It's also been largely edited by users with possible COIs. So, I see nothing that passes WP:NORG about this or anything else that would be in favor of there being an article about the school. Adamant1 (talk) 09:45, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Couldn't there just be an article about the east wing then? I don't think one building on a campus being notable automatically makes the whole thing notable. Including the design of their school badge and them doing inter-school quiz competitions. If the east wing is notable create an article for it then. There's nothing else notable about this and notability isn't inherited. Seriously. --Adamant1 (talk) 19:35, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes the school can definitely inherit the notability of its main building, seriously. If a couple of paragraphs in the article are not encyclopedic, they can easily be removed. Underwaterbuffalo (talk) 09:14, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Good job. The last article doesn't say anything about it though and it's a tabloid newspaper anyway. Ao I doubt its reliable. I'm not sure how you can claim your citations are "reliable sources" when one is a tabloid and doesn't even talk about the school, but whatever. Also, don't you think there should at least be one source in English since this is an English encyclopida? If there isn't id think its out of scope of the intended audience and isn't actually notable to them. I.E. English speakers who read this (BTW, I only ask because I've seen it brought up before and I think it lacks scruples to a degree to call every non-English source reliable purely because they exist when you really have zero way of knowing that. Since I assume you don't speak Chinese and aren't deeply enough involved in the Chinese Wikipedia to know which Chinese language sources are reliable or not. They aren't all are, but you seem to be fine acting as id that's the case. Even when your citing a tabloid). Adamant1 (talk) 09:31, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GNG says "Sources do not have to be available online or written in English." — Toughpigs (talk) 14:24, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Toughpigs: The person posting them still has to be able to read the sources to make sure they are reliable and it's clear that Cunard didn't. So I really don't get what your point is. Language matters in so far as it being a barrier to actually knowing if the sources are reliable or not. Maybe they don't "have to be" written in English, but if someone is going to post them, they at least have a basic understanding of what the article is saying if it's not in English. That seems pretty obvious and is the only point I was making. I'll also support what I said with Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions arguments not to make in AfDs discussions. Mainly "Keep It has 345,400 Google hits, so it is clearly of interest. – GoogleBoy, 04:04, 4 April 2004 (UTC)." Which is exactly what Cunard has a history of doing. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:04, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You said, "don't you think there should at least be one source in English since this is an English encyclopida?" — Toughpigs (talk) 15:24, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Mainly because if there was one source in English that we 100% knew was valid then a few Chinese ones that were of iffy or undetermined quality wouldn't matter as much. Kind of like it's OK to use local articles to establish notability as long as there is one regional or national source to boast the article with. Context matters a lot to this. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:30, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, doing a basic look over of your Wen Wei Po source it contains a lot of sentences like "Saints High School has always attached great importance to students’ life planning education" and "The school attaches great importance to cultivating students' self-knowledge. Career planning and career exploration not only broaden their horizons, but also help them increase their understanding of all walks of life, but also increase their own personality and growth." So, there isn't anything neutral about the article. Which is a major test of reliability. Again, it's another problem with you posting sources you don't even review before hand and taking a "the only thing that matters is sources exist" approach to this. --Adamant1 (talk) 12:06, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly what policy or guideline, Adamant1, says that non-neutral sources are not reliable? Many, perhaps most, of the sources we cite here have a POV one way or another, and quite a few are seriously biased. That such sources have taken note of a topic still contributes to notability. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 23:53, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It should be pretty clear that an over aggrandizing puff piece that doesn't actually talk about the school, except to fawn praise on it, can't be used to establish notability. A bunch of vague personal opinions about how great it is and how much it benefits student's, or similar general statements, isn't "in-depth coverage." WP:GNG states "Significant coverage addresses the topic directly and in detail." Which the source isn't doing. Further it says ""Reliable" means that sources need editorial integrity." An overly positive puff piece that's essentially a PR job isn't exercising editorial integrity. Otherwise, it would be more neutral. It should also be pretty obvious that there's a huge difference between the normal level of non-neutrality in most news sources, and something that is trying to sell people on the benefits of a school. The source is essentially a promotional review and WP:NORG applies to this. It says "Editors should use reviews only from sources with well established reputation for independence and objectivity." (or in layman's terms "neutrality") Otherwise, they aren't reliable sources. Also, WP:OSE isn't a valid argument.
  • Keep as meets, for one, WP:NBUILD and it may be notable enough as an educational institution as well. I see enough in the citations and further reading to think that someone else would find more. "The primary section of St Louis School was particularly famous in the 1970s and the 1980s, for it won almost all the inter-school quiz competitions organized by Radio Television Hong Kong" suggests something specific that could be sought out in secondary sources if an able editor is so inclined. Wikipedia is already too west-centric; there is enough here for this article on an east topic to remain. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 23:28, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but I'm pretty sure winning some quiz competitions doesn't pass WP:NORG. Especially since here isn't really any sources about it so far. Even if there was though, I'm pretty sure it would be trivial. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:33, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
And how are you "pretty sure" that an undetermined amount of coverage by an undetermined number of news outlets for an undetermined number of years would be trivial? DiamondRemley39 (talk) 00:37, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Because there's certain topics that WP:NORG considers trivial and the number of news outlets that cover it or years over it taking place doesn't matter to it. For instance "of event schedules or results" is considered trivial. There's no "unless the event schedules are covered in multiple news outlets over a certain number of years" or whatever clause. Just like "of the hiring, promotion, or departure of personnel," doesn't become non-trivial if a company has promoted a lot of people because they have been in business for a long time. The topic is what determines triviality. At least in the example we are talking about. There can also be the triviality of details in a specific article, but that's not really relevant to this or what WP:NORG is talking about. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:22, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep for (1) the listed building is notable, an article on the school makes way more sense than one on its main building alone, unsure what the argument was there?2) the sources per Cunard's rather stellar source search. Side note: English is actually an official language of Hong Kong, 4% speak it as their usual language and almost 50% can speak it, so the English speaking argument is not only incorrect from the policy perspective but also fails to take into account Hong Kong's English speaking population. PainProf (talk) 01:30, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
A lot of schools have articles about notablw buildings on their campuses when a specific building has it's own notability. Usually if something is a government denoted historical landmark its notable enough for its own article to. There are cases where specific things are more notable then where they are located or what they are associated with. That's all I was saying. But apparently its disruptive, combative, and abusive yo explain things. So I didn't feel the need to gice more details about what I meant. Plus, it seemed obvious anyway. I'm not sure how it wouldn't make sense to have an article about the building if its notable enough for one, but whatever. Apparently the thing that isn't notable about this deserve an article and the thing that is doesn't. "Shrug." Adamant1 (talk) 12:32, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think she meets Wikipedia:Notability (academics). For a scientist, she is probably too young to have a page about her (still pursuing PhD/MD according to her LinkedIn page [13]).

    I think the difference is that she is headlined in multiple articles, rather than simply being mentioned in a list of laureates. You don't see this kind of coverage every day. It doesn't matter if she has subjectively done anything "important" enough to merit an article because it's not our place to be the judge; we simply follow what the sources say. GNG alone (without meeting PROF) is sufficient. -- King of ♥ 21:17, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi, thanks for your input, but I respectfully disagree.
    1. I will argue that she is not "headlined" in any of the articles - she is either "teenager" or "student" in the titles.
    2. I will argue that we should have higher bars of notability for science than pop culture. A notable YouTuber does not need to do anything, but a notable scientist should have "important" scientific or technological contributions. Yes, it's subjective, but we have evaluating guidelines (Wikipedia:Notability (academics)). If a scientist is in the news for non-scientific reasons (pop culture, getting murdered, competing in the Olympics, espionage, etc.) then that's something else, but that's not the case here. Zhang has done important research — for a teenager, which explains the coverage. She has not done important research if we take out her age element and just look at her publications like we do with other scientists ([15]).
    3. I will also argue that her coverage is WP:ONEEVENT (winning the Siemens Competition in 2011). The ISED award is for the same research project, and meeting Obama is a direct result of that win. Beyond that... nothing. MVP-nostalgia (talk) 22:53, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    1. What I mean by "headlined" is that the headline alludes to her and the entire article is devoted to her, as opposed to having just a paragraph as part of a larger whole (which is often already enough to count as one source with significant coverage).
    2. That is not supported in any policy, and I imagine most people would actually say the reverse.
    3. WP:ONEEVENT does not apply here. She won the award in 2011, and was still having articles written about her in 2015 (U.S. News). This is evidence of the persistent coverage required to transcend WP:BLP1E. -- King of ♥ 04:24, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete since she doesn't meet the notability guidelines for academics. The only thing that might make her notable is her cancer research, but it doesn't seem like the research has received any wide spread coverage. Maybe WP:GNG would apply instead of WP:NPROF, but then only one source, U.S. News., would qualify IMO. The other one from The Mercury News wouldn't because it's a local paper to the area she lives in, local papers cover that kind of thing, and I don't think that Siemens Competition is a high enough award for it to be notable on it's own. Especially since there isn't more regional or national news out there about her winning it. Ultimately, this should come down to if her scientific research has garnered peer notice. Her article is about her research, it's likely the only reason she has one, and so you can't say it's not relevant to the AfD and that WP:GNG is the only that applies. --Adamant1 (talk) 13:23, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @Adamant1: Take a look at this CBS source. Even if we discount Mercury (and I don't agree with that - based on my understanding of WP:AUD, all sources, local or non-local, count as qualifying sources, and of the multiple qualifying sources just one needs to be non-local), U.S. News + CBS ought to be enough. WP:NPROF itself says: "It is possible for an academic not to be notable under the provisions of this guideline but to be notable in some other way under the general notability guideline or one of the other subject-specific notability guidelines." Nowhere does it say that people who are primarily known for their academic accomplishments must use NPROF instead of GNG. -- King of ♥ 16:11, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment From my understanding there's some debate as to if the specific notability rules like NPROF over rule GNG or not. Personally, I'm under the impression that they mostly do (with a few exceptions). Otherwise, there's zero point in having them if people can just default to the GNG when an article doesn't meet the specific guidelines. There's some places, like with sports players and companies, where they are absolutely necessary. Otherwise, there would be no way to delete most articles in those subject areas. The need to follow them is probably a little less extreme with academics, but it shouldn't be none existant and the GNG is to general for them IMO, because ts easy to be an academic and be mentioned "somewhere." But there should be more then that. Just like mentions of sports players are a dime a dozen even with minor local teams. So the GNG alone isn't enough. Adamant1 (talk) 17:04, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    See Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2020 July 13#Matthew Jones (footballer, born 1980)‎, which deals with the opposite scenario: I closed a discussion as "keep" because the footballer met WP:NFOOTY despite not meeting WP:GNG. "Otherwise, there's zero point in having them if people can just default to the GNG when an article doesn't meet the specific guidelines" - funny, that's exactly the point I was making in defending my close, but in reverse: "Otherwise, there's zero point in having them if people can just default to the GNG [to argue for the article's deletion] when an article does meet the specific guidelines." In other words, the point of SNGs is to allow subjects to be considered notable even if they don't meet GNG. Many important academics don't receive much newspaper coverage and have an article solely by virtue of their highly cited work. GNG is always a valid argument for inclusion, unless the subject is specifically excluded in WP:NOT.
    "There's some places, like with sports players and companies, where they are absolutely necessary." That's simply not true. WP:NFOOTY often results in stubs on footballers who played a few professional matches being kept; sports SNGs are widely believed to be looser than the GNG. Regarding "minor local teams", that's why we require at least one source with significant coverage to be non-local; if a local player meets that, I don't see why we shouldn't have an article on them. And WP:CORP is little more than a restatement of WP:GNG with some clarifications about the quality of sources and what constitutes significant coverage. -- King of ♥ 17:43, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    I never said it was news coverage or bust for academics. Obviously having highly cited work would come before a mention in the news. This person doesn't have that though. Personally, I'm not solid on the "one non-local source" rule for athletes myself. A few people were trying to argue that an athlete was notable because one of the two sources was from a Chicago newspaper and Chicago is a large area. So it shouldn't be considered a local source. I've also seen people try to combine local sources from different areas into a single "regional" source to get over the one non-local source threshold. So, I think there should be a little more then that. With athletes, I guess it really depends. Having to play professionally is stricter in some ways, but yeah it does result in a lot of stubs. So, I guess it's a trade off. Personally, I wouldn't call the topics that WP:CORP considers trivial as just a restatement or clarification of what's in WP:GNG. --Adamant1 (talk) 18:47, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Technically, no guideline other than WP:CORP requires that sources even be non-local (note the location of WP:AUD). So if you want to ignore AUD because it's in the wrong guideline, then we would simply accept local and non-local sources equally, since neither WP:N nor WP:BIO makes any mention whatsoever about regional scope. (That's not how AfDs work in practice, so we should probably move it to the main notability page.) If you disagree with AUD and think that local coverage cannot count at all towards notability, then feel free to start an RfC. For me, looking at non-local sources alone she crosses the line just barely, but when you include the Mercury articles she is well above it. -- King of ♥ 01:08, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment It's definitely true that a subject does not have to pass WP:PROF if they pass WP:GNG instead.

  • Delete Trivial coverage for any scientist. Basically every time we publish a somewhat interesting thing, we put it out on the newswire, when it gets picked up we can easily get hundreds of newsarticles within a day hence many scientists would be notable by GNG. It doesn't mean the researcher is particularly notable just that the university has a good PR reputation. In this case she hasn't published much yet (no first author paper I can see, one Science middle author (pretty good but if this helps noone would hire her without a first author), I see she is doing a MD-PhD in Darrell Irvine's lab (an outstanding lab run by a notable individual), so probably WP:TOSOON, many MD-PhD candidates will become notable later because its pretty hardcore. I would also say that using gold nanoparticles is really quite trivial even at the time and not a major advance. Btw Darrell Irvine is an excellent person for an article, as HHMI and prof at MIT he probably should have an article. PainProf (talk) 19:08, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    You're free to have your opinion that GNG shouldn't count for scientists, but note what WP:PROF actually says: "It is possible for an academic not to be notable under the provisions of this guideline but to be notable in some other way under the general notability guideline or one of the other subject-specific notability guidelines." -- King of ♥ 21:57, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Trivial mentions don't really count. I think in this case we can see this is trivial churnalism based sourcing. The scientific guideline in this case might help us to assess it a little better. Another consideration is that this page is likely embarrassing to the subject considering having a Wikipedia page over a couple of times in the news before your PhD looks like peacocking. As a note I also think the article looks like it might also be conflating different people, she's listed at MIT, she's in David Irvine's lab from what I can tell on the article its Stanford which seems to be a different person, This makes me think there is way too much OR here and until some of this is actually verifiable this should be draftified regardless. i.e. https://www.linkedin.com/in/angela-zhang-a083b946 and https://www.linkedin.com/in/angela-zhang-b2755b105 PainProf (talk) 23:15, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Your characterization of the sources as "trivial mentions" is patently false. She is the main subject of multiple different articles in respected news outlets, spanning a wide timeframe. Whether you think her research is trivial is of no importance; as long as several reliable secondary sources each have a few sentences on her or more, she meets GNG, and some of the sources go well beyond that. Regarding her identity, the article itself is not confused, as all the major sources say that she went to high school in California (the other one is from North Carolina). There was no mention of the North Carolina person until you brought her up. -- King of ♥ 23:39, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    If she is not in David irvines lab this is much simpler. In that case the article shouldn't claim she is a scientist as she has yet to publish a paper even as middle author. Gotta have at least minimal standards for that claim. PainProf (talk) 23:48, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Again, you allude to some vague "standards" but don't address the central point, which is that WP:SNGs are never a requirement if a subject meets WP:GNG. The only defense to a subject having enough significant coverage in independent RS to meet GNG is WP:NOT or WP:ONEVENT, but I have explained above why that does not apply. -- King of ♥ 00:00, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Or she fails WP:BASIC these are routine events. Wikipedia is not news. These don't reflect any notable achievements such as a major award. The USA news is written by an intern not their staff and relies on material provided exclusively by the subject so fails independence. The other sources are churnalism of press releases. Also verifiability is important - without a peer reviewed paper it's impossible to assess the claims of "research". I published my first academic paper at 20 so I don't really see this coverage as particularly notable, as I said when my work gets in the media there are invariably hundreds of articles but they are at best rewrites of the press releases the university writes. To me this is like saying winning the spelling bee is enough for notability.PainProf (talk) 00:26, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    The WP:NOTNEWS angle fails because she has received coverage across multiple years. Can you point to anything in our notability guidelines that says that articles written by interns should be treated differently? The publication's reputation is on the line for all articles it publishes no matter who wrote them, so they have all undergone the same fact-checking process. Just because the U.S. News has a lot of quotes from her, doesn't mean that it is a primary source; there is enough journalistic reporting in there to constitute significant independent coverage. You refer to "churnalism", but give no evidence that those publications are simply republishing press release material. They may use primary sources in the process of their reporting, but any reputable outlet will do their own fact-checking on top of that, so the sausage that comes out of the factory is independent news reporting.
    Regarding your own example, you're claiming that it is common for big-name national outlets to routinely report on student papers? Funny that you mention the spelling bee, because a spelling bee champ Evan O'Dorney was kept at AfD primarily due to news coverage of him winning competitions. -- King of ♥ 00:49, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    I checked university library as it essentially tells you where sources come from see https://hollis.harvard.edu/primo-explore/search?query=any,contains,Angela%20zhang%20science&tab=everything&search_scope=everything&vid=HVD2&mfacet=rtype,include,newspaper_articles,1&lang=en_US&offset=0 it looks like they are all from same Press release so not independent PainProf (talk) 00:59, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Covering the same event that PR Newswire also covers is not evidence of churnalism. If both the press release and the news article accurately represent the facts, then an overlap in content is not surprising. Since these are reputable news sources we're talking about, which will generally explicitly cite press releases when they use them (e.g. [16]), the burden of proof is on you to prove that they swiped the material from press releases. -- King of ♥ 01:21, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per arguments set forth by editor King of Hearts. I also liked the thought introduced by PainProf concerning the poor baby doc getting embarrassed because she has an article on Wikipedia. Makes me wonder how many other notables are embarrassed for the same reason? Sorry but that's not here nor there. KoH has this put together correctly and nobody thus far effectively rebuts. (imho) P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 04:39, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    I won't offer any further arguments on the relative merits of the sources. My understanding is BLP1E's main purpose is to protect low profile individuals from this. I actually think this is somewhat missed sometimes. Not everyone benefits from a Wikipedia profile. In this case for instance claiming to do be the one performing research where you weren't the first or last author has a really bad connotation within the scientific community itself. In this case, I could imagine an adverse effect on the subject. An inaccurate attribution can be fatal to a career. I accept this might not be a valid argument in any particular policy but I did want to point it out as a consideration. PainProf (talk) 15:00, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, the main protection here relies on her notability, and she and her research are notable under GNG. So I don't see her as a "low profile individual". I'm a low profile person, very low profile, and I would jump with surprise and joy if someone were to write an article about me. I think it would pass GNG, but there is no way I'd write it myself. What we have here appears to be a child prodigy who has done notable work while still underage. She's 25 now and probably quite capable of enjoying the fact that we write about her and acknowledge her notable accomplishments. She's also probably under a lot of pressure to continue her works of genius, so I doubt if she pays much attention to us. No pressure, but I hope her research leads us into a new era of NOFEAR when it comes to things like cancer. Good on you, though, for such thoughtful sensitivity of her situation! P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 15:27, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Regardless of the outcome we should make sure the research section appropriately attributes the work to her supervisors and her as a contributor. If anyone can find an underlying academic paper from the supervisor that would assauge my concerns more. That might be a good way to mitigate the concern re attribution which is the main potential harm. It would be great if we had some kind of template to make clear that she can request deletion on the talk page. I consider her low profile independently of her notability since she hasn't obviously sought the coverage herself.PainProf (talk) 15:42, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • To me it looks like the research was published, here in a low impact journal. I leave this for context. I do think the research section needs to not engage in hyperbole. The research was led by Dr Xiaoyun Chen, and Ruijin Xing, in my experience the first and last author generally had the idea for the study regardless of the media claims.[1]

According to Durham's Place-Names of the San Francisco Bay Area there are two places named Las Juntas in Contra Costa. One is Rancho Las Juntas a large Mexican land grant stretching from Martinez to Walnut Creek. The other is described as a locality and corresponds to the Las Juntas rail station on the Southern Pacific Railroad. The station was used primarily for loading freight. A picture of the station can be found here. There is no evidence of a community by this name. Rail station does not meet notability standards. Glendoremus (talk) 04:22, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, meant AFD. Rancho Las Juntas covered 20 square miles and was long gone by the time this station was built, so hard to say that the two shared anything but the same name. It doesn't make sense to merge a railroad station with an old Mexican land grant. Merging with the railroad that operated the station could be done but there's nothing in this article about a railroad station, it is written on the false premise that it's a community.

Non-notable Esperantido. A single reliable source for the entire article, which barely mentions Romániço at all. Very much in passing, two small mentions out of 166 pages. The rest of the sources are extremely dubious. One of them, the so-called "official website", literally has "ceiling cat is watching you masturbate" on its homepage, and it also has a gif of a woman jumping up and down and...yeah. (If you don't see it, click the logo a few times.) I have not even been able to verify who invented this language, so how do we know that site is official? Just because the WP:SPS claims to be? Even if true, an SPS really does nothing to boost its notability anyway... I use this, rather than PROD, as well respected editors seem to have written large portions of the page. Per XTools, User:Kwamikagami, User:Wavelength and User:Drmies all contributed quite a bit to the article, and I wonder if they have some good reason I can't seem to find for believing this is a notable Esperantido. Nothing against them for contributing to an article of dubious notability, I've done so before a few times too, but that's why I chose AfD and not PROD.

  • Comment. The language itself appears to be quite elaborate, and the website creates the impression that it's quite alive as well. Still, there's too much that is unclear about this language. The article says it was created in 1991 by an anonymous author, but Alan Reed Libert (the only non-primary source) mentions a certain Mike Morales. And this archived page suggests that it evolved in the mid-1980s from the Esperanto used by a group of juvenile shoplifters. The relationship with Esperanto isn't clear either: Libert discusses it in a book about Esperantidos, but the website (as well as other websites like this one) doesn't even mention Esperanto at all. It's not explained why and how there are several variants of Romániço. Is the website maintained by same person who created the language, or was it adopted by someone else? Apart from the fact that this article does not answer these basic questions, it is not clear where the information comes from either. I would suggest to change the article into a redirect to Esperantido#Romániço, leaving the page history intact. —IJzeren Jan Uszkiełtu? 00:06, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete being in BBC MindGames Magazine should give it some notability but i could not find anything also it supposedly has some links to the daily mail but i couldn't find anything on it as well.

  • Delete What he was elected for isn't high enough in the political realm to qualify for notability from WP:POLITICIAN and only being covered in a few local sources doesn't cut it either. He'd at least need coverage in multiple major regional news outlets or national ones. The libertarian parties website as cited above doesn't work for notability either, because obviously they are going to cover him. So, it's essentially a press release. --Adamant1 (talk) 19:29, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete county board members are not notable. You need really good coverage, and we do not have that here. As mentioned above the previous article was about a totally different person.

  • Delete. County commissioner is not a role that confers an automatic presumption of notability per WP:NPOL, and Calimesa is not a large enough community to make him notable for being its mayor.

Article about a radio program, not reliably sourced as passing WP:NMEDIA. The article claims that the show was syndicated to multiple stations, so it would be eligible for a well-sourced article, but simply asserting that the subject passes a notability criterion is not in and of itself an exemption from having to get over WP:GNG on sources that demonstrate its significance -- but the only footnote here is a deadlinked directory entry on a site directly affiliated with the Canadian Association of Broadcasters, which does not clinch notability all by itself if it's the best or only source on offer, and even in a ProQuest search for older coverage, literally all I can find is glancing namechecks of its existence in coverage of its parent radio station, with no evidence of any sources that have this show as their actual subject.

This article is supported by 4 sources, 5, if you consider an article by the subject that is cited by the Italian version. The works section completely unsourced, and appears to have been copied from a Facebook post, according to [23]. The central claim appears to be that Petrucci is notabale for discovering several lost Bernini's. I'm not a Bernini expert, and I am not disputing that he was involved in their (re)discovery, but I dispute that he is notable for those, meaning that he has not received significant coverage in independent, reliable sources.

Found during CAT:NN cleanup. Looks like a great guy, but I don't see notability. I can't access more than the first couple sentences of [24], but the title suggests it is about this figure and is probably significant coverage. [25] is not significant coverage. [26] is a passing mention in an interview with one of his former athletes. He's in a high school athletics hall of fame for his sport in his state, [27], but that honor is at a low-enough level it likely doesn't indicate notability. [28] is not significant coverage. I've only been able to find one obituary that's not hyperlocal coverage and a couple paragraphs in that hall of fame listing.

I thank Rathfelder for their edits to the article, expanding it with sourced information.

Of course Kalevala is notable. But this is a synopsis - effectively a plot summary of the work. This seems simply out of scope for Wikipedia. This is pretty much a WP:PLOT (and it is explicitly the exact part of "what Wikipedia is not" in the "Summary-only descriptions of works" example!) for of Kalevala#The_story.

  • Keep This is effectively a summary of the work. It is a collection of a large number of different folk poems, with a modern-language telling being 500 pages long: Kalevala suomeksi. The main Kalevala page only goes through everything in a few words and some parts like Lemminkäinen are also not summarized enough compared to everything else on that page. Wikipedia does include larger summaries for works with many characters and complicated turns, for example Inferno (Dante), Purgatorio and Paradiso (Dante) (or just split each chapter/cycle into its own article like Araṇya-Kāṇḍa or General Prologue). One notable thing about these examples is that they all feature a great number of artwork for the individual chapters. The biggest reason for keeping the Kalevala synopses page is that I was going to basically transform this article into a gallery of Kalevala art. I have approximately 50 images prepared and I was about to complete it the following week but now this happened. Most Kalevala art is often incomprehensible even to Finns without a brief summary of the part it is in. So if I were to make a Kalevala in art article, I would have to include most of the summaries of the parts the paintings appear in from here. This article instead would be killing two birds with one stone. I would not be against renaming the article with this reimaging of it in mind, if someone is able to come up with a better name. The main Kalevala article is not fit for showcasing the art, as for example it mentions "Väinämöinen brings trees and life to the barren world." but leaves out the large man felling the great oak. It also has no mention of Väinämöinen literally taking seeds and spreading them. This sparseness repeats for most other parts too. I would have to tell all of the stories in the captions of the images, leading to what I described before. With the synopses, I can just give the name of the work, the artist and the year. I would add a mode=packed gallery with a smallish 160px in size under nearly every song, which looks good and fitting. Example:
Gallery
Commons additionally lacks about 25 similar works which I'm about to add.

    • Galleries are not encyclopedic (WP:NOTGALLERY) and belong on Wikimedia Commons instead. See also WP:GALLERY. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:51, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • You're getting stuck on the word gallery. What I wrote would be the exact opposite of "Photographs or media files with no accompanying text" from link number 1. It would fit perfectly with "In articles that have several images, they are typically placed individually near the relevant text" from link number 2. The two linked rulebooks seem to completely work in my favor, for I don't see anything that wouldn't be certified by them. PiercingEyes (talk) 05:46, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Absolutely. The article is no more a gallery than a list of Shakespeare plays, each one's text accompanied by an image, would be a gallery. Of course it isn't any such thing. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:40, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article calls them runos, Kalevala calls them songs. I'd have to check an assortment of English-language sources to see what is the most widely used term. I have no personal preference here. – Finnusertop (talkcontribs) 19:19, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I don't know which, if any, policies this actually violates; AFAICU, not WP:PLOT, given that this isn't the only article on Kalevala, and the main one Kalevala covers the context, background, etc. that WP:PLOT requires. And if we were to merge it into the main article's synopsis section to get around WP:PLOT, the next thing we'd know is someone proposing splitting it into a separate article because it's too much. I think the article is useful, and it would be a pity to lose that content; I'd leave it as it stands, except for possibly a name change (see next point). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:17, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment It isn't perhaps immediately obvious what the article name 'Kalevala (synopses)' means, but then most people will presumably end up there via the main Kalevala article, and in that context it should be clear enough, and I'd leave it as it is. If it were to be changed, then I'd suggest 'Kalevala (synopses of poems)' or words to that effect. I wouldn't have thought 'runo' means anything to non-Finnish-speakers, and for the same reason I'd also edit that term out of the article itself. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:17, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In order to move things along, I'm nominating a group of rail locations in Lassen County, California whose only documentation in the articles is being listed in Durham's California place names book. I have been able to verify that most of them were rail locations from the list in this archive directory (expand the section "Southern Pacific Railroad Company" on the right, and pull the area wider to be able to read it), but that is pretty much all I can find out. They all point to either blanks spots or points at the edge of other towns. There's no evidence that any of these are actual settlements that I have found, though of course is someone finds some info to the contrary on one I will pull it from this nomination.

This article may be a hoax or a WP:TNT candidate. I cannot find any reliable source that calls her a goddess, there are a few Google Book hits but they are not very reliable - first is an obvious copy from Wikipedia, another is a New Age publisher (Llewellyn Worldwide). The only reliable source for this is [30] but it is a one liner, and academic works can have errors too. As a goddess, she seems to fail GNG as she has not been a subject of any academic study or discussion, and all we get is a one line in a single source (that does not cite a source). She does seem to be mentioned in the Kalevala, but it is unclear she is a goddess, and I can't find any literary or otherwise academic analysis of her as a character, so she she fails WP:NFICTION (also as a minor Conan the Barbarian character). As a side-note REDFLAG, you'd expect a Finnish goddess to have an article on a Finnish Wikipedia... At best, I think this can be redirected to Kalevala#Characters but right now the article does not mention her (it seems she plays a very minor role in the epic, I think gets only a few sentences in the work...).

  • delete I too find nothing significant scholarly on it; the context of what I can see suggests that it's either a poetic figure or possibly an attribute of some other deity, but in any case what we have here seems to be a fiction created by unwary new age authors. Mangoe (talk) 16:42, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm fairly certain its not an outright hoax. Aside from the one reliable source shown by the nom, The Larousse Encyclopedia of Mythology also mentions her and another goddess named Kivutar as some of the children of Tuoni and Tuonetar, and states they were "goddesses of pain and disease". This book also mentions her as one of Tuoni and Tuonetar's children, as well. With all of the sources pretty much being one to two sentences long and just stating those same two facts, there probably is not enough to work with to develop a stand alone article, but this should probably be Redirected somewhere.

possible "redirect" targe Finnish mythology#Heroes, gods and spirits? Coolabahapple (talk) 15:10, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Not a hoax. Although there doesn't seem to be much in-depth about her, Vammatar is in Rune 45 (Birth of the Nine Diseases) of the Kalevala. The line in Finnish is: ""Kun ei tuosta kyllin liene, Kivutar, hyvä emäntä, / Vammatar, valio vaimo, tule kanssa, käy keralla / tekemähän terveyttä, rauhoa rakentamahan!"[31] which Crawford translates as "Should this prayer prove unavailing, / O, Health-virgin, maid of beauty / Come and heal my dying people, / Still their agonies and anguish."[32] This source says Vammatar (Spirit of Injuries) is synonymous with "Kivutar" (Pain Spirit) in the same verse and "Kiputyttö" (Pain Girl) in the previous verse. There is a Finnish Wikipedia article for fi:Kipu-tyttö, although it doesn't mention Vammatar. All three names appear in passing in this source (p. 150). Carter (talk) 13:22, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Not to put too fine a point on it, but The "Larrousse" is, as I understand it, a Robert Graves concoction, who I am loathe to accept as reliable. I'm also dubious about the Virgin Mary paper given that the claim is uncited. Beside that, the question remains as to whether this name appears anywhere else in Finnish primary sources besides this one passage from the Kalevala. Mangoe (talk) 13:59, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Robert Graves actually just wrote the four page Introduction for the English edition. The actual text of the encyclopedia was translated to English by a Richard Aldrington and Delano Ames from the original French Larousse Mythologie Generale, which was originally edited by Felix Guirand and published in France by Éditions Larousse. A lot of places, such as Amazon, list Graves as the "author", when he actually had nothing to do with the actual text of the encyclopedia itself. Rorshacma (talk) 14:48, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
agree with Rorshacma, Laroussee Mythology is not "a Robert Graves concoction", it is a reliable source. Coolabahapple (talk) 15:02, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As best I've been able to determine this morning, Kiputyttö gets more ink than Vammatar in discussions of the Kalevala, but even her not that much. For the Conan character, she first appeared in the short story Legions of the Dead, which was the source material for her first Marvel Comics appearance. It looks like she appeared in about a half issues of various Conan titles, as well as a mention in some Marvel encyclopedias (although it's not clear if the Conan Vammatar is supposed to be the same character). In either case, she fails WP:NCOMIC for a solo article, but would meet for a list candidate. Carter (talk) 15:26, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This is not a hoax, but it is impossible to write an in-depth article about her. A minor mythological figure which gets passing mentions in texts. The fictional character named after her is a mortal witch and is not depicted as a deity. Dimadick (talk) 10:50, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments. The deity was worshiped, and there is plenty of evidence in the form of scholarship. However, the Conan character isn't the same person, and is a minor character. Not surer what we should do here. 20:24, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
  • Merge into the relevant articles on the Kalevala and Marvel Comics. No need for a separate article. Vammatar is also noted in the the book Kalevalan sanat ja niiden taustat by Aimo Turunen (p. 371a:5) He states that she sometimes appears in spells, even though there is no such being in Finnish mythology. He also posits that she is another name for the Virgin Mary in much the same way that Kivutar and Päivätär are. There is some scholarly research about Vammatar, nothing that I've seen refers to her as a goddess, just as a mythical being. -Yupik (talk) 06:13, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Granted, the article needs to be thoroughly rewritten, and also updated given the ongoing changes in the Lebanese telecoms market (the gov't has taken over both mobile operators, with a view to re-tendering their licences imminently). But as one of the two mobile telecoms operators in Lebanon, the company in question is surely notable, and the article can be made to meet notability guidelines with RS references, of which I've already found a few. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:25, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • The argument that the notability of a company can be satisfied by it being one of a few companies of x-type in a given market is not supported by NCOMPANY/GNG. If there is no coverage or such, there is nothing to make a mobile operator in a small country more notable that a large mobile store in a big city or such. If there are sources that allow us to show this company is notable, please show them. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:41, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete without prejudice to recreation when it comes out. it's definitely TOOSOON because it hasn't been released yet and there's no telling when it will be. Saying the standard doesn't apply just because we don't know when it's coming out isn't compelling, because it's just words. For shows to be notable they need in-depth coverage like reviews that this doesn't have yet. Or in absence of that, serious articles about the pre-production or something like a serious disaster/or injury on the set. Even then though, Wikipedia isn't news. This has none of those things though and all the sources in the article totally trivial and don't establish notability in the slightest. The first source doesn't even seem to mention the move at all. The first one provided by Emperork only does in passing as "Troop in Love", the other sources are exactly the same. We know the show exists. It's not encyclopedic. What we need is in-depth coverage.

  • Delete – Fails WP:BASIC, and English Wikipedia presently provides no presumed notability for religious subjects in its notability guidelines. My own source searches are only providing name checks and passing mentions (e.g. this article), and primary sources, none of which establish notability. Note that the the subject also goes by the title, "Dr. V. H. Lewis", but source searches including the title, including various customizations in searching, are providing more of the same, along with a few snippet views of primary sources such as those from the Journal of the General Assembly, which is published by the Church of the Nazarene, General Assembly. Simply put, the subject does not meet any notability guidelines to qualify for an article. Name checks, fleeting passing mentions and primary sources do not establish notability.
Per my objective assessment, none of the sources provided at previous AfD discussion actualy establish notability per Wikipedia's standards of notability. Only one independent, reliable source, published by The Oklahoman, actually provides what may be considered by some as significant coverage. However, I feel that this article falls a short of that requirement. Regardless, notability hinges upon a subject having received coverage in multiple independent, reliable sources that provide significant coverage, not just one.

Source assessment table:
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
[34] No A primary source published by Church of the Nazarene Yes No This has a written work by the subject. This is a primary source that does not establish notability. No
[35] No A primary source published by Church of the Nazarene Yes ~ Has some mentions, but this is a primary source, and is not usable to establish notability. No
[36] No A primary source published by Church of the Nazarene Yes No No
[37] Yes Yes No Has a one sentence quote from the subject. This is not significant coverage. No
[38] Yes No An unreliable genealogy website. At the AfD discussion, it is assumed that this appears to be from a reliable source (diff), but no proof of this assertion was provided. Furthermore, in the edit summary, the user stated, "Found a paid for death notice" regarding this source. ~ Has some coverage, but the source is unreliable No
[39] Yes Yes No The subject's name is mentioned within a single sentence. This is not significant coverage. No
[40] Yes Yes No Contains one sentence about the subject. This is not significant coverage. No
[41] No A primary source: a website "initiated by the global Church of the Nazarene" (link) Yes No Contains a link to works by the subject, which are primary sources No
[42] No A primary source: the Church of the Nazarene website Yes No Mentions the subject within a single sentence that is about another person. No
[43] Yes Yes ~ Consists of routine coverage and mentions about the subject holding a meeting and prayer service. Also has two very short paragraphs about the subject later in the article, consisting of a total of four sentences. Some may argue that this comprises significant coverage, but I feel that it falls below the threshold. ~ Partial

  • Comment (Undecided) - If an article has a lot of promotional language, that is actually a reason for cleaning it up if the company in question is notable. This company has media coverage but I am undecided on whether it is robust enough to satisfy WP:NCOMPANY. (That crucial notability guideline was not mentioned in this nomination or in the previous speedy delete decisions.) If the article is kept at the end of this debate, the title should be moved to Massar Solutions because that is how it is named in industry sources and that is what it calls itself quite clearly ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 01:39, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I also took into account the notability and I believe this fails WP:NCORP. I apologize that I didn't mention the specific notability guideline I was referencing when I indicated no indication of notability. -- Dane talk 01:43, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Feels like a promotional piece, also does not appear to meet its notability guideline. dibbydib 23:47, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Respect your comments and views. The article was created through draft via Articles for submission after many sources were given and multiple changes incorporated to establish notability as per the views of the reviewer and administrator. The administrator and reviewer accepted the article after sufficient references and citations were given to establish notability.
Also Massar is not a private company, it is owned by the Government of UAE under subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Water & Electricity Authority and Abu Dhabi Power Corporation. The Abu Dhabi National Energy Company, PJSC (TAQA) (ADX: TAQA) a government-controlled energy holding company of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates is the owner now.

  • Comment: The AfC draft isn't largely different than the version that was G11'd. Also, the reviewer was not an administrator, just to clarify - it was a volunteer with the WP:AFC team who may not have been familiar with the prior article. The article still seems to fail WP:NCORP to me. -- Dane talk 15:15, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant English-language coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar.

  • Delete the article is without sourcing. The mentioned links above only provide plot points, nothing more indepth.

  • Delete. Does not pass WP:NGRIDIRON (no pro games), WP:NCOLLATH (no major awards, records, etc.), or WP:GNG (not finding requisite significant coverage). He did get some coverage in The Springfield News-Leader (e.g., this and this), but not sufficient IMO to pass the GNG bar. I am also skeptical about potential WP:COI as the article was created by a WP:SPA (User:Yahoo123456789) that only ever edited on July 3, 2009, and with 8 of 9 total edits being on the pages for Starnes and his high school.
