Seems to be a non-notable film; I cannot find independent commentary on it. Being nominated for an award usually doesn't convey notability. (t · c) buidhe 21:32, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Old topos show a building at the location given, plus another couple across the road. The building is gone now, and the spot is on the grounds of the UMC's Camp Lodestar. I could not find any references to this as a place at all besides geo-clickbait. Mangoe (talk) 21:26, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was transwiki and delete. There is very strong consensus here on two different fronts: First, that these articles are not encyclopedic, they don't pass WP:GNG, and they don't belong on WP. Second, that the information in these articles is exceedingly useful, valuable, and not easily found elsewhere. However, simply being valuable and useful is not enough to warrant inclusion as a standalone article in Wikipedia, so the articles must eventually be deleted.

In the interests of developers, engineers, and other humans around the world that find this content useful, it seems reasonable to apply some unconventional leniency to this situation, and allow for a reasonable amount of time for this content to be relocated to a more suitable place before it is deleted. To this end, I'm willing to offer the following terms:

  • The articles will not be immediately deleted or moved, they will stay where they are for now.
  • Editors that are interested in preserving this content are encouraged to immediately start discussing where to move this content and how to best achieve that.
  • In 30 days (on August 30th), I will return to delete all of these articles. If more time is needed to complete the transwiki process, I will consider requests to extend the period of time slightly beyond 30 days, but only if there is clear evidence of significant progress being made.
  • If the transwiki process is completed before 30 days, please inform me and I will delete the articles sooner.

This is a mass nomination of all EBCDIC code pages, following on from the closure of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/EBCDIC 389.

While these pages are verifiable, none of them are notable, as there have been no reliable, independent sources discussing (not just mentioning or reposting) individual code pages.

This nomination is explicitly not for the page EBCDIC, which is a notable subject: and the code pages itself are discussed in that article and already listed in Code page#EBCDIC-based code pages.

I have chosen to only nominate EBCDIC code pages here because that includes already 100+ pages, and because other types of code pages may be notable, I haven't checked (though I suppose many may have the same issues and may need deletion as well).

  • Delete these codepage reproductions, per WP:INDISCRIMINATE: they are not encyclopedia articles and so do not belong in the encyclopedia. None of these topics is individually and independently notable. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:31, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • None of the sub-cases of WP:INDISCRIMINATE really applies to these articles. All of them have context and references to independent sources (including the Unicode consortium) GSchizas (talk) 22:06, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Transwiki, perhaps to WikiBooks, then delete. I have not checked all the nominated articles, but those I have looked at don't have notability in the sense of secondary sources writing about the individual code page history, impact, etc. I agree that these pages are not suitable as standalone articles. In the previous AfD, there was a consensus among knowledgeable editors that the information was verifiable and valuable. So while these are not suitable for Wikipedia articles, perhaps those editors could transwiki the lot of them to an EBCDIC Wikibook. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 18:29, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • The previous AfD was not really resolved. The result was "no consensus". GSchizas (talk) 17:52, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • I never said it was. Please sign your comments. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 09:52, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Sorry about not signing, I was trying to do a single edit and I guess I skipped one of them. I was referring to the "there was a consensus among knowledgeable editors" phrase. GSchizas (talk) 17:52, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Transwiki somewhere. We shouldn't be replicating entire bodies of various works Wp:NOTREPOSITORY, but this would probably be helpful somewhere. Hog Farm Bacon 19:53, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • The WP:NOTREPOSITORY rule isn't relevant for these cases. These pages aren't mirrors or list of images etc. It's not even a "whole body of work". In most cases it's a reorganization of existing information under a common template and with a more readable form. GSchizas (talk) 22:06, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. At least keep until someone can successfully transwiki these pages and the template to Wikibooks (the last attempt was not successful). A mass deletion of these pages without a transwiki would be against Wikipedia policy a huge loss of information. I originally voted keep EBCDIC 037, EBCDIC 500, JEF, KEIS, and articles that are notable, and transwiki the articles that are not. Now I see that these pages are important to reflect code page history and contain valuable information, and should be kept on Wikipedia. Alexlatham96 (talk) 20:02, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Alexlatham96: Please avoid simply updating your discussion as you did at [1] (and possibly earlier). A minor spelling mistake is acceptable, sometimes striking and rewriting under a different timestamp works, or adding a new comment at the end may be apropriate. But changing content to which a person has replied can make that reply look out of context. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:35, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • What are the secondary sources for e.g. EBCDIC 037? The only non-IBM sources are this long list in which 037 is mentioned among many, many others, nothing more, and this technical mapping page. Neither of these give any indication of notability, and such pages exist for all these codepages, not just these. The exact same thing applies to e.g. EBCDIC 875 or EBCDIC 1026, none of these have any indication of notability. Fram (talk) 09:40, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • I found this newspaper explaining EBCDIC 037 (Code page 37). Code page 37 is explained in the February 15, 1988 edition of this newspaper, pages 22 to 24. Alexlatham96 (talk) 22:58, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Thanks, but that's the internal university computing magazine. Such internal company or university sources are normally not considered for notability. Fram (talk) 07:42, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:NOTREPOSITORY rules don't really apply (I've replied to the other points separately). More to the point, I don't see how this attempt can end without removing ALL articles referring to code pages (and not just the EBCDIC ones). If that is the final goal, this (as was mentioned at the original AfD which was not resolved), this should be taken further up. In fact, most of the comments by Mark viking and DRMcCreedy apply to this AfD as well. In any case, even specifically for CP875 there are a few discussions about it in the Unicode mailing list, and I wouldn't be expecting anything much more glamorous than that; it's a very niche subject, so discussion in the Unicode consortium mailing list is the most you could hope for (at least in this century). Of course if the final decision is to delete all EBCDIC code pages (except a handful that seem to be the most US-centric ones in any case), there should be some automated or otherwise mass way to migrate these to a more appropriate sister site (I'm not entirely sure what the "transwiki" process entails). GSchizas (talk) 22:06, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • If the best are "a few discussions in a mailing list", then that is a very good indication that these are indeed not notable at all. I only nominated the EBCDIC ones for now to give people a chance to get a look at them, to see if some are notable anyway (I'll take a closer look at the ones singled out above). If I had nominated even more articles at once, this would have been much harder and people would start complaining that I nominated too much at once. This is a damned if you do, damned if you don't case. Anyway, it is unclear what reason you give for keeping these, while at the same time confirming how extremely niche these things are, and how they thus lack all notability. Fram (talk) 09:32, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • It's not some random mailing list, it's the mailing list of the Unicode consortium. Out of those mailing lists the Unicode standard is eventually defined. No, I wouldn't expect there to be discussions about them in newspapers, but I think that's an unfairly high threshold to clear, for any article (not just Code page ones). Also note that for most of the EBCDIC code pages (and other code pages as well), they were created a long, long time ago, so it's not going to be easy to find a reference for each and every one of the EBCDIC codepages. That being said, just as long that the information contained in these pages is not lost somehow, I think an (automated) transwiki would serve. Making the articles with no other information than the list of characters marked as "stub" would also be a good idea. GSchizas (talk) 17:52, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Keep. I see them as extensions of the EBCDIC article, which would be too long if it contained all of the information about each EBCDIC code page. I like the idea of marking articles as stubs if they don't contain enough detail. It allows other editors to eventually add information instead of the hurdle of creating the page from scratch. DRMcCreedy (talk) 18:51, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • But why would we need "all of the information about each EBCDIC code page" on enwiki? Of course this would make the main page too long, but that's not an excuse to keep subpages of minutiae. Tagging them as stub doesn't solve anything. Fram (talk) 07:42, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Just curious, why was this specific article selected to nominate the whole list of EBCDIC code pages? It seems a bit random to 'target' an article that's in the middle of the list! GSchizas (talk) 22:06, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • In the category, it is the first one (the list is alphabetical, not numerical). Fram (talk) 09:32, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • Wouldn't that be Code page 259? GSchizas (talk) 17:52, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Category:EBCDIC code pages is the one I'm talking about. Apparently some are ordered by full name, and some by number . I just followed the order of the category. Fram (talk) 07:01, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm still not seeing any evidence this passes GNG, the relevant notability guideline. What I'm seeing is WP:ILIKEIT excuses for why this should be exempt from notability. Reproducing all of the code pages would be WP:UNDUE at the main EBCDIC page, and stand-alone pages need to meet notability guidelines. This is the sort of thing WikiSource is for - the contents of documents that while they do have some interest, they do not meet the guidelines for getting their own article. Hog Farm Bacon 14:00, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • On the other hand, I see too liberal interpretations of the wikipedia rules. None of the mentioned rules apply here. Not WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:NOTREPOSITORY and certainly not WP:ILIKEIT or WP:UNDUE. I've explained the first two in another comment. Nobody here is claiming "I want this page to not be deleted because I like it". And I don't see how there can be any point of view (much less a non-neutral one) for such a page. As to the general notability, it is covered in other comments here; there has been discussion in independent media, and historically they affected current standards (such as Unicode). GSchizas (talk) 15:07, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Speedy delete Any code page that doesn't have a specific claim of notability should additionally be made eligible for speedy deletion (not just the ones here). These don't meet GNG. PainProf (talk) 23:42, 7 July 2020 (UTC) - change vote to speedy delete, copyright infringement, likely not reprinted in many places because this code registry is copyrighted by IBM and is their intellectual property. PainProf (talk) 23:14, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Highly unlikely that the list of numbers, as opposed to the specific representation is (or can be) copyrighted. Also, the time for "speedy" delete has long, long, long passed (some of the articles are 10 years old or older). GSchizas (talk) 08:26, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep - I really hate to see these go, I would make the argument of WP:NSOFT where the topic of EBCDIC satisfies the notability guidelines and the list meets "It is the subject of multiple printed third-party manuals, instruction books, or reliable reviews, written by independent authors and published by independent publishers." As a software engineer I can say that I find these lists to be very notable. When I searched github and other source code repositories I find over 4 million references to EBCDIC. If I narrow my search down to just "IBM code page 875" I am finding thousands of projects using search terms such as CCSID 875, IBM-875, CODEPAGE_875, cptable_875, CP_875, CCSID875 and so forth. If you are reading this... please spend some time using those search terms to find references to "IBM code page 875". Am I the only engineer voting?

    • Maybe you can request to move these pages to your userspace if they are deleted or transwiki. However, I am not an admin. Alexlatham96 (talk) 03:06, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • WP:NSOFT is an essay, not an accepted guideline, and it would never get accepted as a general guideline as it stands because it is so far removed from the WP:GNG. EVen then, being included in code or being mentioned is still not the same as "being the subject of multiple third-party manuals, instruction books or reliable reviews[...]", the subject should be the main topic, not something also mentioned. Oh, and EBCDIC itself is not up for deletion of course. Fram (talk) 08:22, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep I don't buy that all of this meets WP:INDISCRIMINATE, while we are happy to keep truckloads of articles on sportspeople who have touched a football in an international game. Also, we appear to be having articles on all Unicode blocks (eg. Tamil_(Unicode_block)) sourced entirely to primary sources, though I am not sure how important EBCDIC is as compared to Unicode. SD0001 (talk) 09:59, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, and please note that while others have given "indiscriminate" and other reasons to delete these, the original basic reason is a lack of notability, a lack of reliable independent sources for these pages. Whether they meet the letter of "indiscriminate" or not is hardly the point. Fram (talk) 10:18, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • From that same page: "When applied to creation of articles, this concept must demonstrate that articles of a similar nature and construct are included throughout Wikipedia.". There are of course easily proven notable specific pages for US-centric EBCDIC code pages, and there are articles for other non EBCDIC code pages. Is this a trojan-horse proposal to remove all of them? Again, they do have historical value, as they eventually influenced the creation of Unicode (among other things).GSchizas (talk) 19:57, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I think this discussion may be null and void, I just looked at one of the sources. In the top corner it clearly says copyright IBM. I don't think we can reproduce these sources in full. I think all of them are subject to copyright. I would suggest this material can't be included on Wikipedia and can only be linked to at IBM. PainProf (talk) 22:37, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
i.e. look at PDF linked here EBCDIC_1166 PainProf (talk) 22:45, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • So it's your contention that a chart showing Unicode characters that correspond to a different computer encoding is copyright infringement?! By that logic, every computer encoding table in Wikipedia will need to be deleted. IBM, Apple, Windows, Adobe, HP, DEC. All of them. If that's the case, we need a much bigger deletion discussion! But I don't agree with your assessment. The table at EBCDIC_1166 isn't a cut-and-paste of the cited reference. It contains Unicode characters and code point identifiers not in the cited source. DRMcCreedy (talk) 01:56, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's identical just transposed and including standard identifiers. There is no fair use exception that applies and IBM have a copyright notice clearly it is their contention that it is covered by copyright. Computer codes are covered by copyright and can't be directly reproduced without consent of the copyright holder. It is quite possible any encoding table not specifically released under a license requires deletion, regardless I've raised it as a copyright vio to check. Im not sure why this table would be exempt. The codes are their intellectual property. But let's see what they say. PainProf (talk) 02:46, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I created many of these articles. I see sites like this and this showing these code pages. So I agree with DRMcCreedy. However, I will wait to see the result of the copyright investigation. Alexlatham96 (talk) 05:23, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unicode is the same: "You may freely use these code charts for personal or internal business uses only. You may not incorporate them either wholly or in part into any product or publication, or otherwise distribute them without express written permission from the Unicode Consortium. However, you may provide links to these charts." PainProf (talk) 14:35, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • The charts themselves aren't incorporated at all. The data that can be derived from the charts (or other sources) is a different thing than the specific representation. GSchizas (talk) 08:29, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I had previously closed this AfD. After discussion on my talk page over concerns that this was not adequately advertised given how many articles were deleted I am relisting this for further discussion. Djm-leighpark who discussed it with me has other concerns but I will let them explain those for themselves.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Barkeep49 (talk) 21:04, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: @Thankyou Barkeep49. I had offered to look at this as a migrator(transwiki'er) of last resort however deletion of source articles occurred before standup of WikiBook was achieved. The key issue is, and I believe this is especially important when handling bulk work of several articles of one type, that discussion is undertaken with WikiProject to see if a solution can be agreed and a volunteer task group set up if not, which is in the spirit of WP:BEFORE Criteria#3. In terms of the (non consensus) closure of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/EBCDIC 389 it is perhaps disappointing the recommendation was not to consult with WikiProject rather than suggest a bulk nomination. In any event the migration-and-stand-up failure of the EBCDIC code pages (at least up to this point) has caused a hiatus which should not have occurred, and indicates it was not totally trivial. It is often said AfD is not cleanup, and AfD is certainly not the place to plan a transwiki of this magnitude. There is a further problem that the issue of code pages other than EBCDIC have not been considered, so will we end up with the senario that half are on WikiBooks and half on WikiPedia which looks stupid. So there is a real case for considering all code pages rather than one and if presenting on WikiBooks how may they be best stood up. Understanding the totalilty of the problem also helps determine the level of automation that would be optimal for the whole job. As per a merge result from AfD its important at least one merge !voter is willing to undertake a (hopefully non-trivial merge). In this case I believe Mark Viking was the first transwiki !voter but to a degree indicated he was not was not intending to take on the job. In view of the non-success of standing up a WikiBook at this point transwiki !voters may need to consider their position. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:56, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: At least until someone demonstrates a successful stand-up of ALL code pages in Wikibooks and improved guidelines for tranwikification. I didn't come to WikiPedia to script/automate ... and certainly not to do it rushed in the nice long days of summer while adjusting to new-normals while transitioning through lockdown states. WP:PRESERVE is mor ethe gist of thinking but it doesn't really cover transwiki, and that may not be the best option anyway. A template such as AwaitingPossibleWikiBooking might as be a compromise. Is there a rush? Djm-leighpark (talk) 22:20, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Transwiki, with a preference for deletion if no suitable site can be found. I'm seeing a lot of "keep, I like it", "keep, other stuff exists", "keep, it's convenient" and "keep, transwiki is too hard" (??). What I'm not seeing is evidence of coverage that satisfies the GNG. – Teratix 04:03, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • On the contrary, I'm seeing a lot of "delete, I don't like it" and false calls to other irrelevant guidelines. The totality of the pages were called "trivia" or "minutia" (hence, "I don't like it"). There were also a couple of sources referenced here, but they were unfairly dismissed. No, you shouldn't expect a single code page to be mentioned in the front page of the Times; that's a quite unfair hurdle to overcome. GSchizas (talk) 08:50, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm not seeing any sources mentioned that were not countered already by Fram's analysis. We're not asking for front-page newspaper coverage; all that's needed is a couple of independent, reliable sources that discuss the subject beyond a passing mention. – Teratix 12:12, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hence my comment "unfairly dismissed". GSchizas (talk) 10:55, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Transwiki then delete. This is not content suitable for Wikipedia, but it would be a shame to just loose it. Do we have a bot that could just copy stuff like this to Wikibooks? Maybe someone should look into automating such process, to make it less cumbersome to save useful but unencyclopedic efforts like this. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:21, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
While per WP:TRANSWIKI there is a documented procedure for transwiki (Wikibooks seems to say dont do that manually!) there remains work to stand up the result in the target to make it usable. Its a bit like the plane taking you on your holiday getting to remote corner of the airfield - thats not a holdiay if you stay there - your need to get to the hotel and determine your baggage hs not been directed to Inishmurray or wherever and you're all set up to enjoy your holiday. In thw case of the first mentioned the results of the transwiki are here: [2]. This is some way off a completed curated WikiBook when removal of source is more appropriate and functionaility of source page(s) and target page(s) can be compared. This may or may not be hard but it will require some resource by someone to make it happen. For alternative views also see various sections on Barkeep49's talk page and maybe latest archive(?) and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Computing#Articles for deletion. For a single page merge AfD result the actioner has probably a week to take the action, and a bit more if they give a good a reason. For a Transwiki to WikiBooks of multiple pages is is not unreasonable for the person standing up the wikibooks to have an appropriate amount of time. For me normally that might be a month, but currently its three and I'll negotiate with that with any designated WP:FUNKy person bar one if anyone thinks I'm being awkward or unreasonable. (In terms of codepages EBCDIC may be the tip of the iceberg and I'd like to know the extent of the iceberg first). Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 06:36, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Does anyone think Code page should be deleted? I don't. These pages support Code page. Removing that support does not improve the encyclopedia. Merging all this to Code page does not improve the encyclopedia. There may be policy arguments for deleting all this but if it doesn't result in an improvement to the encyclopedia, I can't support that reading of the policy - WP:NORULES. ~Kvng (talk) 14:23, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: (Closer please note): This is currently likely heading for possible outcomes of No consensus or Transwiki. I am looking for signs any transwiki !voter who is prepared to champion into a WikiBook; preferably quickly; so WikiPedia users do not lose access to these code pages. As far as I know I am currently the only volunteer who in the event of a transwiki result, which I do not support, has offered to (try to) stand up in a WikiBook (pragmatically some scripting and maybe even regular expression capability is probably useful); but will only do so if the source pages are retained it situ until that is complete both due to assist in applying softlinks, cross checking the results, and also due to scripting and tooling assistance I might use. Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 07:05, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I'd look at these as essentially part of the EBCDIC article (or other encodings for other similar pages), offering encyclopedic detail that would be awkward to fit into the main page due to length. I'm not aware of this being explicitly addressed in policy — but I do think it is implicitly supported by the documentation of standard practice (admittedly not policies) between WP:SIZESPLIT and WP:CONSPLIT(depending on how one reads it, see discussion below): note how CONSPLIT wants notability for the split topics, but such is distinctly absent from the practice documented under SIZESPLIT. I don't think WP:INDISCRIMINATE should (or is intended to, probably) discourage content that would be otherwise acceptable if not for being lengthy. —{{u|Goldenshimmer}} (they/them)|TalkContributions 01:59, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Most important though is the text you didn't quote directly above the two sections you reference, in WP:WHENSPLIT: "Consideration must be given to size, notability and potential neutrality issues before proposing or carrying out a split." (bold in original). So notability clearly should be a consideration before a size split. So no, it isn't implicitly supported but explicitly, in bold, opposed. Fram (talk) 07:11, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • Mm, I guess. I read that as a summary of the following sections, with the notability point being inherited from CONSPLIT (but not SIZESPLIT), but can see how it can be taken as applying to both. Thanks for pointing that out. While it does give me some level of doubt about my interpretation, I still think I have to stick with the keep, even if only per the last sentence of my rationale. —{{u|Goldenshimmer}} (they/them)|TalkContributions 21:50, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep. Please re-read the arguments of DavidDelaune. These code pages are a part of the foundation of computing. Doubtless there are thousands of sources for these code pages, they just aren't easy to find. I've read about them in countless programming magazines, manuals, and journals, but unfortunately, I've thrown them all away. Although it would be better if these pages were about the CCSIDs than code pages, this information is vital. These articles may never get lots of page views, but they are very useful extensions of the Code page article. Perhaps if one were to look for this information using the term CCSID or "coded character set id", they will change their opinion. If it were up to me, I would keep every one of them and move them all to 'CCSID nnn'.Jacona (talk) 12:28, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Transwiki or delete Keep !voters have not been able to make any convincing argument that these pages are notable, which is necessary to keep them. (t · c) buidhe 22:45, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I'd like to share a couple of recent comments from discussions at Wikibooks:Requests for Import. The first is that many imported materials have waited years for creation into a book (I assume in some sort of Limbo); the second it is unlikely anone on WikiBooks is likely to assist; thirdly I have indicated that the ultimate scope of the result on the basis of this being a precedent here may likely be applied to most of Template:Character encodings. People should also be aware Transwiki and delete is sated by import to the WikiBooks transwiki area which is pretty much a pathway to an unusable oubliette; I would say Transwiki and standup in WikiBook (in a reasonable timescale) and then delete (and delete if outside timescale). Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 23:02, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As a practical matter, a transwiki result here will either leave stuff as it is or will (eventually) cause stuff to be deleted. It might help if Hog Farm, Mark viking, Encyclopædius, Teratix, David Eppstein and Piotrus clarified what they would like to see happen to the content until such time as it can be transwikified with appreciation that this may never happen. ~Kvng (talk) 22:43, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Kvng, that clarification would be helpful. It should be noted that these page have actually been imported to Wikibooks already. The supporting templates would also need to be imported and they would then need to be assembled into a book. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:48, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If the outcome is transwiki and delete, but it is not transwikied in a reasonable time (say one week of closure) I think it should just be deleted, with the understanding that the content can be restored to user or draft space to anyone who proposes to actually carry out the transwiki. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:25, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I suggested transwiki as an alternative to outright deletion for editors who would want to preserve this material. I am not one of those editors, but understand its value to some folks. I am sorry to see that the suggestion has led to stress and an extended AfD process. I think David's approach is a good one: get closure with this AfD, but provide a last chance for motivated editors to massage templates and complete the export to a usable wikibook. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 00:14, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If "these page have actually been imported to Wikibooks already" (link please?) than I don't see what else we need to do outside deleting the stuff here? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:33, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Piotrus, [3]. I had closed this AfD as transwkify and delete. However, Djm-leighpark raised concerns that the AfD had not been adequately advertised given its scope so I reversed the close including restoring the pages here while further discussion occurred. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 02:03, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@David Eppstein I have very clearly volunteered to have a go and that is on the basis it remains in situ for up to 3 months as tooling I may use may do other stuff from original location. I have consideration of other code sets that may follow this one in this thinking. Remember on deleteion links to these pages get removed and caredifficult to re-establish even if stood up in draftspace. I have said one month would normally be sufficient and I was willing to give that explanation to a WP:FUnky person to a evaluation rather than outing by RL personal circumstancess here, suffice to say at the moment I have slept (sort of) on someone else' ssofa for the last 7 nights. Now an experienced Wikibooks person like yourself with the right skills might be able to stand up an EBCDIC WikiBook in hours. And if you (or anyone) are willing to do volunteer to do the job and document if for eveyone's benefit to show show unreasonably stupid and what I snail I am then you are welcome to do so. I have said I have have to have the articles templated to say an AfD has reached consensus and they are awaiting standind up in WikiBooks. Can I remind also folks this is a normination of 50+ pages and [[u|Bigdelboy}}(me) and/or Fram could follow this with one(s) of several depending on the result of this AfD. So, David Eppstein, are you volunteering to do the job (properly) or are you putting pressure and WP:Wikistress to organise my life around wikipedia? While Barkeep49 re-opened the AfD on the basis of lack of advertisment I had offered to assist as a volunteer of last resort, though knowning zitlch about transwiki or wikibooks. For those following my contribitions will see I have put some effort in two discussions as to how I would like to stand up Wikibooks ... though as a keep voter and a belief in the no-consensus result it is not appropriate for me to further a stand-up in Wikibooks until this is complete. To state the obvious if I am the only volunteer to stand up content in Wikibooks and a closer choses a transwiki and delete in a shorter timescale I would likely take to DRV. (An alternative would be to allow one month but on the basis I am permitted up to 2 one month extensions if requested provided I have shown some progress). Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 05:23, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate Djm-leighpark's efforts to preserve and improve this content. If it helps, I support moving any affected articles to his userspace as user drafts, with no time limits for him to work on them. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:02, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Piotrus: I sincerely appreciate your thoughts on the userspace option, but I'll decline it. Some of the scripts I have in mind might be looking at inbound links to these pages. I'm looking at a requirement to create a book and possibly integrate when necessary. Everyone else sees individual pages. And I am also looking to provide continuous access to the information for potential users. I am very open to templating the pages in the interim by some prose such as "Determined by AfD to be unsuitable for WikiPedia discussion by retained for a short while to allow for project to transfer into a WikiBook". If I try this my way, I fail, and I apologise if that happens, and people will be rightful to mock. If I try it your way, and I fail, I risk I will mentally derange, and there I would be advised not to try. Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 11:38, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The notability of this food store is extremely questionable. The article only cites two references. While they are both from the New York Times, it's likely less to do with the store having regional or national appeal as a topic and more because it's local to New York. Since both articles are essentially reviews. Also, it seems like most of the notability comes from the stores connection to a notable film producer. I see nothing to indicate it's notable on it's own though. Maybe it could be merged into Dino De Laurentiis since the article already mentions it. Adamant1 (talk) 20:13, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This seems like useless WP:FORK of Transaction processing that's little more the a description of term and would be better served if merged into that article.

  • Redirect to Transaction_processing#Implementations, where it is already mentioned. I agree that there isn't in-depth sourcing sufficient to meet GNG and associated underlying technologies, such write-back caching, are covered elsewhere. 82 hits in GScholar and book hits, including an O'Reilly text[4] show that the concept of XTP exists in the literature, however, and it is a plausible search term. Hence, per WP:ATD-R, redirect is a reasonable alternative to deletion. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 10:38, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This line of succession, containing the full names of 26 people, has one blue link and zero sources. The article on the former princely state of Rajpipla itself only cites four sources newer than the Partition of India: a book from 1968, a news article about an airport being built in the area, a dead link to a royalty forum, and the promotional OpenLibrary entry of Prince Indra Vikram "Teddy" Singh, the purported "scion of the royal family of Rajpipla" who wrote a handful of (mostly self-published) books on cricket and writes two blogs listed a combined 11 times in the External Links. The other External Links are: a WP:PEACOCK-heavy interview with Singh in The New Indian Express, with no author attributed; a New Indian Express article on a book by Singh, again with no byline; a blog called the Rajpipla Post; a page on the Gujrat government site that didn't load for me; and a page of the Bombay Gazetteer from 1880.

It doesn't seem like this book is notable. There's only three sources in the article. The first one is on the general idea of a 4 day week and the third is a personal blog. Going by the title of the second source it might talk about the book, but there's a good chance it's only trivially. Although if there is in-depth coverage one source isn't enough for this to be notable. Also nothing came up when I did a search for the title of the book except for things having to do with a 40 hour week more generally.

NN journalist, fails the GNG and WP:BIO. No substantive coverage in reliable sources found. Notability tagged for over a decade.

One other factor is that for reasons surpassing my understanding, this article's been a vandalism magnet for its entire history. I just stripped out a lot of arrant nonsense and garbage, down to the barest minimum supported by the valid cites, as BLP requires. I couldn't find any significant coverage of McKinney in reliable sources, but would be happy to withdraw should a sufficiency turn up.

  • Delete: there have been various bits of nonsense added to this page on multiple occasions over the period of several years and I had removed some of these a few times in recent years. At times I had looked for sources of material that might provide some independent coverage- but had only really seen the pages that AllyD highlights and a few other local stories, such as coverage of a competition for his students. He doesn't make notability when judged against WP:ACADEMICS either. Although the article was sarted back in 2007, this discussion seems worthy of a ping to @GMc: who is still active here.

  • Keep: I worked on the page and translated some of it (which seemed like it was written by someone who speaks French but not fluent in English), reorganized it a bit, read most of the citations. Though I cleaned up the page, I did not (not yet, anyway) go seeking more coverage because it would all be in French and my brain was fried at that point. I'm not sure how much coverage a person needs, but Loraine Felix does appear to have several awards, and maybe that's enough to satisfy WP:NMUSIC.

  • Comment Well I created this article while also seeing a red link in Requested articles/Arts and entertainment/Internet and tech culture.

  • That request should have been removed in 2019 when the IP who added the request, whose only edit was to the request page, provided no sources or how the article would meet notability guidelines. A self-proclaimed social media influencer with repeated media attention (not significant because her trial got pushed back frequently and for only one "minor" crime), does not meet the applicable WP:PERP guideline. Also, being an extra in a music video hardly classifies as being notable, either. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 13:36, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article appears to be at best a WP:POVFORK of involuntary commitment and at worst a massive WP:SYN violation. The author was looking to get a scientology source whitelisted for use here, and I think that might explain its strident tone. It starts right from the top: "Wrongful involuntary commitment or wrongful commitment refers to the unethical practice where mental health professionals wrongfully deem an individual to have symptoms of a mental disorder, and thereby commit the individual for treatment in a psychiatric hospital. In other words, it is involuntary commitment that is immoral, unjustified, or illegal." Or, you know, it could be a medical or jurisprudential error, but we don't know because there is no offence of "wrongful involuntary commitment" in any country and Google's 66 hits for the term start with this article and then run long on ambulance chasers and short on RS. It is claimed, but the judge is skeptical. Guy (help!) 17:06, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't really understand your argument. If it's medical or jurisprudential error, then it's wrongful commitment, as this article presents. If you read the entirety of the article, it raises several high-profile incidents of wrongful commitment, including the well-known Rosenhan experiment and the Duplessis orphans, where the subjects in both instances were wrongfully committed. The tone isn't meant to be strident, just informative. It's something that happens in the mental health field that is not talked about very often so I thought it would be correct to create this article. I was looking to get the one scientology source whitelisted, not the entire website itself. I fact-checked the article to verify that all of it was true, which it was. It was written nearly two decades ago around the time when the orphans were filing a lawsuit for being wrongfully committed. I thought the source was accessible and concise so that's why I wanted to use that, that's really it. I don't understand how you can jump from me trying to get one fact-checked and factually accurate article whitelisted from an otherwise controversial website, to me then jumping to the inclusion that this Wikipedia article should be deleted. I'd definitely be fine with merging this article into involuntary commitment, but this is a topic that does need to be spoken about. Factfanatic1 (talk) 17:19, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article was brought to my attention on Hungarian Wikipedia. Possible hoax. Couldn't find any info on this person; the only source listed (a book called Nyelvészkutatók élete) doesn't seem to exist according to the database of the National Library; all Google mentions are from Wikipedia mirrors or other persons (both Ágoston and Gellért are moderately common given names in Hungarian). The image used in the article looks suspiciously modern. I'm not 100% sure that this person didn't exist, but his existence is not sufficiently proven in the article and I couldn't find anything that could be used as a source. – Alensha talk 16:18, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I noted three things. 1) It is referring to Consorts, not Concubines and these are different positions (see sources in Imperial Chinese harem system), 2) This is an essay which can be helpful, but its an opinion not a guideline or policy, 3) It says "almost always notable" not "always notable".   // Timothy :: talk  18:39, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The only people who are always notable are actual heads of state. Everyone else is somewhere under being "always" notable, and considering the number of concubines some emperors had, claims that concubines are default notable are just plain absurd.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:30, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nomination. No evidence that they pass WP:BAND. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 17:21, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Searching for this band can be tough due to their bland name (wow, they like totally made themselves unique by capitalizing the last letter) and the existence of many other bands called Seed (including one that I used to know in person). For this one, a search in conjunction with "pagan folk" and the like reveals a few sources about the history of the genre in which this band is listed briefly as an example. But I was unable to find anything that is specifically about them, and on their own terms, they are only present in the usual streaming and social media sites. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 00:03, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - SeeD have performed in music festivals small and major across Europe, and headlined the major folk festivals of Castlefest in 2017 and 2018, and Elftopia in Belgium in 2019 (each having tens of thousands of attendees). They are in rotation on CeltCast Radio, a leading folk music radio network. Sara Weeda is a member of Anúna. SeeD have had news coverage in English, Dutch, French and German (see the new sources on the page - and also, for example, https://valkyrieswebzine.com/seed-portal-to-elfland/), and had news coverage in a major English newspaper in 2019 following their lead performance at the Pre-Raphaelite Ball. (https://www.facebook.com/seedmusick/photos/a.155781987890795/1530821210386859/) I have added some further sources for their performances on the article. Pagan folk in general has become one of the fastest growing genres of the past decade, with a vibrant scene in virtually every country in Europe but especially in central and northern Europe - I don't believe it would benefit anyone on Wikipedia to bar content of an established and iconic pagan folk band. They are equal to Trobar de Morte (Spanish wikipedia page at https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trobar_de_Morte), whom they performed with at Castlefest 2015, and having risen from a guest group to headliners, are perhaps only one notch of notability below the likes of Faun (band) and Omnia (band), who have also headlined Castlefest. I believe it would not be consistent if they were not permitted an article of their own. Vaurnheart (talk) 17:35, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I have already voted above and everyone can speak their minds, but I will advise the last voter to see the other stuff exists fallacy. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:58, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I found some passing mentions but not sufficient coverage for the WP:GNG. The vocalist, Sara Weeda, passes the lower bar of the WP:GNG. If someone creates an article on her one day then SeeD would receive a couple of lines in her biography. That is at present the maximum extent of coverage we should give this band. Faun (band) and Omnia (band) are 13 and 15 years older bands with considerably more recordings and coverage. In both cases, the much higher WP:NBAND standard is probably reached. Kudos to nominator User:TimothyBlue for a thorough before, nomination, and laissez fair approach to the discussion. Like him, I also enjoyed the sound of SeeD. gidonb (talk) 10:27, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to fail GNG. Unless I'm missing something (I may be) it appears he simply wrote a few pseudo-scientific books which do not have any real significance. There is a citation to a journal article which discusses the pseudo-scientific theory of melanin theory, which King is apparently mentioned in. There is then a link to an article about the oldest black owned bookstore which does not discuss King - I'm not sure why it's there. The last link is to a deleted scribd URL which apparently had a copy of his book about Melanin theory. All personal details are unsourced - which explains why it was tagged as COI (not to mention it was created by a single purpose account with 'King' in its username). There is a military man named Richard D King which confuses search results but with keywords like 'melanin' I'm not getting anything establishing notability. Ultimately, I don't see any evidence that he is a significant academic or otherwise. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 14:30, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reply Apologizes for not being more specific.
Independent of the subject - only The Himalayan Times is independent of the subject
Reliable Sources should be secondary sources and "multiple sources are generally expected". only one ref The Himalayan Times meets the RS secondary source criteria.
Significant coverage - "addresses the topic directly and in detail" - The Himalayan Times only has a passing mention, no significant coverage.
None of the sources supports notability.
Per WP:ORGCRITE within WP:ORG - "is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject."
None of the sources meet these criteria.
Basically the article needs two or more reliable sources that are independent from people/orgs associated with the project that provides significant coverage addressing the topic directly and in detail to establish notability. I'm happy to change my vote to keep if there are sources that meet the notability criteria.

  • Keep i don't speak any language prominent in Indonesia, but it's leading English newspaper The Jakarta Post gave her a obit, [7]. Considering all these Indonesian language sources that come up in a google news search [8] and the fact that sources don't have to be in english, i think deleting this would be a example of cultural bias and thus negatively impact our coverage of non euro/american entertainment. i hope someone who understands these sources can add them to the article.

  • Keep - Credits count towards notability, however slight. The lack of biographical detail is a minus point, but is something which would be worked on as the article stub progressed, just like thousands of others with baseline notability, which I suspect this person has/had.

  • Keep- I believe this article meets WP:GNG due to to the numerous Indonesian-language articles that come up on a quick google search. The results of a YouTube search show many clips of this comedian on talk shows and other types of comedy videos.[1] The list of sinetrons and TV programs meet WP:NACTOR, although perhaps barely so, and the list is unsourced. It is concerning that all of the references on the page obits and I think this page will need some work with both the biographical information and the citations.

  • Delete. This article is in horrible shape. I know that in itself is not a reason to delete an article. But I did not find any reliable sources. The only one that came close is a blurb about them releasing a new album. Actually I don't think we consider that too reliable either since it's basically an ad. The rest of the results were the typical unreliable sites, like blogs, social media, retail sites, streaming sites etc. Many of them also seem to repeat the band's common biography. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 17:06, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete - Note that this band's name has been corrupted in various translations, if I am assessing things correctly via my beginner's knowledge of Taiwanese and Chinese. In Taiwan their self-given name is translated into English as Last Day of Summer 831. But in the west they are simply called 831 and they have an album called Last Day of Summer. Under either of those English names I could find nothing beyond the typical streaming and social media sites in which the band promotes itself. They also have two native-language names that I found: 八三夭 and 八三夭831. A search for those reveals more of the same but with Taiwanese or Chinese text, plus additional social media sites like Weibo. Despite a long history, they seem to have received very little reliable coverage. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 00:32, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Retraction - In my original "delete" vote above, I speculated that messy translations of the band's name across multiple languages makes searching for sources difficult. It appears that my own search suffered from that same issue. Given the sources found by the voter below, I am retracting my "delete" vote. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 18:56, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

      831 was formed by five high school classmates in the summer of 2003. They're referred to as the "Asian Simple Plan” due to their versatile music styles ranging from punk rock to pop rock, electronic, metal and hip-hop.

      The band released their first album “Save the World” in 2008 with Universal Music Taiwan. After two-and-half years, their second album “The Great Escape” grabbed more attention from Asian pop fans. 831 generated a lot of local buzz after producing the opening theme song for popular Channel V program Circus Action's third season.

      In December last year they released their latest album “Survival Guide.” 831 invited two Taiwanese iconic singers; Ashin of Mayday and Richie Ren to help them with one of the album's song's, “Cheers”. The band are very close to Mayday and there has been many collaborations between the two bands in the past.

      台灣搖滾樂團八三夭,以《東區東區》走紅歌壇,成軍15周年時在小巨蛋首度開唱票房秒殺,為偶像劇《想見你》打造片尾曲,更被評為最療癒洗腦神曲,再創歌唱事業巔峰。

      ...

      八三夭於2003年成軍出道,音樂路走來相當艱辛,五人第一次參加春吶時,觀眾不到十個人,其中有八個人還是團員親戚,不過堅持音樂夢想的他們,並未就此被打敗,4年後在海洋音樂祭海洋大賞衝進總決賽,獲得五月天阿信賞識,多次邀約當演唱會嘉賓,拉拔他們在華語樂壇嶄露頭角。

      ...

      到了2012年他們遇到了更大瓶頸,耗時3、4年製作《最後的8/31》專輯,不僅得不到想要成果,連找唱片公司發行都不被看好,始終闖不出成績的五人,開始對未來感到徬徨,興起了不如先行當兵面對現實世界的殘酷,也做出恐將「分道揚鑣」的最壞打算,這也是成軍來首度面臨解散危機。

      From Google Translate:

      The Taiwan rock band Bayanyao became popular with "Eastern District". At the 15th anniversary of its formation, it opened the box office for the first time at the Little Arena. It created the ending song for the idol drama "Want to See You" and was rated as the most healing Brainwashing the Divine Comedy, create another peak of singing career. It is hard to imagine that these five big boys who insisted on their musical dreams faced a crisis of dissolution.

      ...

      Bayanyao made his debut in 2003. The musical journey was quite difficult. When the five people participated in the Spring Festival for the first time, there were less than ten audience members, eight of whom were relatives of the group members. However, they insisted on their music dreams. After being defeated, they entered the finals at the Ocean Music Festival Ocean Awards four years later and won the appreciation of Mayday Ashin. They have been invited to be concert guests many times to draw them to the Chinese music scene.

      ...

      By 2012, they encountered a bigger bottleneck. It took 3 or 4 years to produce the "Last 8/31" album. Not only did they fail to get the desired results, they were not even optimistic about finding a record company to release them, and they were unable to achieve results. The five people began to feel hesitated about the future. They became better off as soldiers to face the cruelty of the real world, and they also made the worst plan to "divide". This is also the first time that Chengjun is facing a crisis of dissolution.

      In fact, the 831 army has been in the army for many years. Every year on August 31st, birthday parties and fan celebrations are always held. Over the years, they have walked through large and small venues. The smallest is a few hundred people, the medium-sized thousands of people, and the largest is the National Taiwan University Stadium. In 2018, I finally applied for the Taipei Arena, and finally gave the fans an explanation.

      Everyone knows Bayanyao may come from different places. At the beginning, I collaborated with Circus in "Come and Go to Hawaii", "Eastern District" which is so popular that it is half the sky, "Why I Cry" which must be heard for broken love, and sang with Ashin and Ren Xianqi. "Fuck Up, Go Up," and "Fresh and Dancing", which refurbished old works, have a story about Bayanyao fans behind each song.

      ...

      After becoming a reporter, I began to know Bayanyao. To be honest, in the entire entertainment industry, they are really not funny. Every time the scene passes, it takes a long time for them to squeeze out one or two funny words; open the press release in the mailbox , I watched and watched repeatedly, sometimes I really couldn't find any news points. Although due to work, I occasionally find this group of people really boring and uninteresting. They occasionally laugh at themselves as the "most lackluster rock band", but it doesn't matter, because they put all their energy into it.

It seems like Bayanyao would be a better name and this page name could be a redirect to that. Please let us know. Thank you again.   // Timothy :: talk  10:20, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unambiguous promotion. Not a single independent reliable source. "Orit Fuchs becomes an international artist in February 2017, after presenting in the Artist Project in the Better Living Centre in Toronto, Canada" may sound impressive to people who are unfamiliar with it, but it really isn't, they'll show anything, as long as you pay, of course. The rest of the sourcing isn't much better: galleries (not independent), youtube (her own channel), a one-line mention in a blog (artzealous), user-submitted content (createmagazine), the torontoguardian, ("original and thought provoking custom content"), facebook, a designer's blog (inbarbi), instagram. The Canadian Jewish News is better, but offers preciously little: "Artist Orit Fuchs, who lives and works in Tel Aviv, is a storyteller with a deep appetite for creative self-expression." The rest is quotes by Fuchs. cultureowl.com has the most in-depth coverage, but it should be noted that they have Self-Publishing Members and this article doesn't look like editorial content; it's an ad, just like this article.

All I could find was a mention of her new studio in this celebrity news site and a protest action in an obscure magazine.

1 and 8 do not mention Fuchs at all. 7 is the celebrity site that I mentioned.

The gallery of her "art" is a shameless ploy for publicity. The coverage stinks, to be blunt.

Prod by another editor was disputed. No WP:SIGCOV from reliable sources; mentioned in the Baltimore Sun, other than that, just write-ups in University of Maryland publications (article was created by a properly self-disclosed paid graduate assistant at the University of Maryland). OhNoitsJamie Talk 12:43, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. I'm the one that deprodded. Although the coverage is mostly from the university, it's sustained (starting in 1992) and in depth: it includes an honorary doctorate and oral history interview. And I'm inclined to think that first African American student at a southern university meets WP:ANYBIO C2. Comment that the Washington Post has coverage similar to the Baltimore Sun's [17], perhaps in slightly more depth. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 13:04, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Meh, currently neutral on this one. I don't think that being the first African-American woman to graduate from a given university is a strong enough claim of notability to override a lack of substantial independent sourcing, although the fact that she has an award named after her and recently earned an honorary degree shows that there's a bit more notability than "first X to do Y". And we do tend to be lenient on independent sourcing for academics, but IMO her claim to notability is more of a historical one than an academic one, i.e. one based on her research or academic positions. The mentions in the Baltimore Sun and Washington Post articles are just mentions, IMO, and not SIGCOV - I've added another reference from the Baltimore Sun which I think is SIGCOV, but it's still just one reference... If someone can find another decent independent source I would probably be persuaded to vote keep. Spicy (talk) 14:02, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Subject is also profiled in brief (with picture) in a coffee table book [18]. There's another book on the history of UMD [19] that might say something more about her, but I can't easily get it. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:39, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I still don't see significant coverage, and am the one who did the original PROD. Other than being the first African American woman to graduate from a particular college (is she the first African American or just the first African American woman, she may be DUE on the college's article), I don't see any claim to notability. Did she enroll in the same year as the other African Americans, or the other ones allowed on campus? If so, then if there's coverage of that, an article on the group could exist and this be merged into it. It's also a question of sustained coverage. Jerod Lycett (talk) 15:53, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is a perfect example of how subjective AfD discussions actually are: we like to pretend that they are based on objective measures of significant coverage in reliable sources, but when a topic comes along that by any objective standard does have significant coverage in reliable sources, but where we don't think the subject should be notable because she's just another black woman who had to struggle against discrimination, we get comments like the ones above saying that the coverage is somehow not significant. Hints for discussants: A newspaper article in the Baltimore Sun primarily about the subject is significant coverage, according to the clear wording of WP:SIGCOV which says nothing about the coverage describing notable accomplishments. An article in the alumni magazine primarily about her, and a recorded oral history interview of the subject, are also significant coverage, by the same wording. So is a full half page about her in a published book. These are, in fact, a lot more wide in their scope and in-depth in their coverage than the typical coverage of an athlete's performance in a single professional game, something that we pretend is indeed SIGCOV because we think the articles on those athletes are worthy of being kept. If you think the notability standards we use should be based on accomplishments rather than coverage, then push to make that change to our guidelines. But, even if you fail to see it as an accomplishment to succeed in being the first black graduate in spite of so much adversity, don't pretend that the coverage is at the level that you expect it to be based on what you think of the subject's accomplishments rather than the level that it actually is. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:29, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The line is unsourced, hypothetical, and includes the names of multiple private minor citizens. Ra'ad bin Zeid could also use a look, as it makes the contentious claim that he is a "pretender" despite no such statement in the (sparse) references. There is a movement to restore the monarchy, promoted by the ICM party and led by Sharif Ali bin al-Hussein (who would not have been eligible for the throne by the old Constitution), but there is no published line of succession proposed on their website (which is in Indonesian for some reason??). Even if it did, the line would also have to be reported on by secondary sources. JoelleJay (talk) 18:47, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for all the reasons already given at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Line of succession to the former Austro-Hungarian throne for that page. It is unclear to me from the relevant pages that the enthronement of Faisal I created an Iraqi royal right for his younger brother to begin with. On Ra'ad's page we say, without citation, that Zeid was "recognized as the Head of the Royal House of Iraq by his remaining agnatic co-heirs of Jordan" after the fall of Faisal II. That suggests he was not the recognized heir at the time the kingdom ceased to exist, and that the whole page is just reflecting a monarchist conceit among the Banu Hussain that named him as head of something that no longer existed (along the lines of the English kings calling themselves Kings of France for almost 400 years).

This kingdom has been defunct since 1860. This mostly unsourced article (tagged as such for 7 years) looks like unverifiable original research, including about the supposed royal status of living persons (WP:BLP). See also WP:NOTGENEALOGY. Compare Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Line of succession to the former Austro-Hungarian throne for a similar case. Sandstein 12:11, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The level of detail in House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies#Heads of the House since 1861 is sufficient. No need to list multiple descendants in a line of the succession of both current claimants.--Eostrix  (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 12:18, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:DEL-REASON 6: Articles that cannot possibly be attributed to reliable sources, including neologisms, original theories and conclusions, and articles that are themselves hoaxes (but not articles describing notable hoaxes). It is impossible to attribute the current line of succession to this throne to WP:RELIABLE sources, because there is no current line of succession, because the Kingdom itself doesn't even exist anymore. TompaDompa (talk) 12:27, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the point made by Eostrix. Listing multiple non-notable children as "claimants" to a throne abolished 160 years ago is ridiculous, even if there are members of the family living in a parallel pretend world where they can pass "acts" and issue "decrees" on succession law. However, if the ongoing dynastic dispute wasn't covered by another article, I think some sort of WP presence would be DUE as the feuds seem to be reported by secondary sources. Of course, we wouldn't be treating the line as if it was equivalent in power and legitimacy to the line before 1860, and stronger independent sourcing would be required to include any of those minors.

  • Delete per nom. Full of BLP violations and OR. Plus it's UNDUE to have an article speculating about who would hold royal positions in a non existent monarchy abolished since 1860.Smeat75 (talk) 19:09, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies#Heads of the House since 1861. Identifying who are the Pretenders to thrones is of interest, though their chances of succeeding are minimal, though we should not forget that the Pretender to the throne of Spain became its king on the death of Franco. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:05, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, but there was a country, Spain, for the pretender to be restored to the throne of. There is no such country as the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and has not been since 1860. The chances of any "pretender " to a nonexistent throne of a nonexistent country are not minimal, they are nonexistent.Smeat75 (talk) 17:25, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Smeat75:. Not that I am contesting deletion, but revolutions do occur (e.g. Belgian Revolution, Greek War of Independence), and newly formed or recreated countries may seek a king (e.g. Leopold I of Belgium, Otto of Greece who had Komnenos and Laskaris heritage). The pretenders yet have hope, however forlorn, to be an expedient political solution.--Eostrix  (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 07:42, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thankfully, we have a policy for that. --JBL (talk) 11:22, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The argument that a line of succession to a past kingdom is of value in case a country establishes a monarchy again is predicated on an invalid central assumption. A country can pick anybody they want, and further they can set any succession rules they want (e.g. strict primogeniture vs male-preference primogeniture; distinguishing morganatic marriages or not). Laying out a line of succession for a reestablished monarchy based on the rules of a dead kingdom from a dead era is simply 'what if . . .' philosophizing. Agricolae (talk) 15:17, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:NOTCRYSTAL and Agricolae. It's extremely remote a possibility that Sicily will become a separate country again, and they will call back their monarchy form 160 years ago. If this country still existed, or if it was in the past century, I might be in favor of a keep, but this is not the case. I do not oppose a selective merger or redirect.

  • Delete Does not meet WP:GNG but unsurprisingly this got deprodded by an WP:SPA who wrote has edited that article for pay. Schwede66 19:38, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Schwede66: Please re-check the article’s history and the contribution’s history of User:TCM579. The article was created by another account in 2014 and there’s no reason to suggest they might be connected. Moreover, while it’s true TCM579 did de-prod the article (which pretty much anyone can do per WP:DEPROD), they have made only three edits to the article (none of which seem to have been done in bad faith or were disruptive) and they have made an effort to try and comply with both WP:UN and WP:PAID. It seems that TCM579 is, at least so far, trying to do things in accordance with relevant policies and guidelines as much as possible. — Marchjuly (talk) 22:20, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for the ping. Yes, upon checking the history, TCM7579's contribution has been rather minor and most importantly, that user did not create the article. Have edited my rationale above accordingly. Schwede66 00:22, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable neologism, with references that are questionable at best. It also appears to be an advert, a way of establishing quasi-notability for the neologism's creator.

  • Delete per nomination. The article looks more like a thinly-veiled BLP than an article about a neologism. Without wanting to pre-empt the outcome of the sockpuppet investigation, the edit history is, at best, suspect. The page lacks reliable sources: apart from the first two references (YouTube and Reddit) and a passing unrelated mention of the term in the article by Matt Jameson, none of the cited footnotes even mention the phrase, let alone support GNG. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 12:28, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: would be WP:TNT-worthy even if a notable topic. No content here which usefully belongs at Draft:Greg Guevara instead. The YouTuber who it is about uses the term for satire/comedy rather than as serious political theory, I believe. — Bilorv (talk) 16:51, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge: It is a satirical ideology, yes. I'd consider it part of Political satire. It's a comedic/ satirical ideology created by one person, it's hard to find more and better sources/ references. I'd suggest merging it with Draft:Greg Guevara, or moving it back to Draftspace in case more (reliable) sources become available in the future. JonahF (talk) 04:03, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment Draft space is not a storage area for things where no notability exists today. If and when notability can be proven for this neologism then the article may be written afresh or undeleted. Fiddle Faddle 07:36, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment might meet GNG or even NARTIST through the frequent mention of his work in gaming-related sites like ign.com. Personally I think there's a big difference, in terms of originality and control over work product, between an independent artist and one paid to crank out games by a company. However my opinion doesn't impact our notability rules.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 00:57, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP Seems like a notable artist. https://www.engadget.com/2007-03-16-samwise-didier-warcraft-icon.html and elsewhere gives him coverage. His contributions to the creation of a notable series like Warcraft if mentioned at Wired magazine. https://www.wired.com/2013/10/stay-awhile-and-listen-book/ He interviewed at https://venturebeat.com/2019/05/14/warcraft-at-25-how-blizzards-strategy-game-became-a-media-empire/ Dream Focus 03:03, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I found a two-page profile of Didier in an Edge article about Blizzard: "Cold calling" (2004). There's also a capsule review of his 2017 book Grimbeard: The Last Dwarf in Starburst here. He's also got an art book, Brutal: The Art of Samwise, coming out later this year. No reviews yet, because it's coming out in October. I think there's enough here to demonstrate notability. — Toughpigs (talk) 05:38, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Actually looking at the sources presented, I've an entirely different take. Even presuming that Engadget blogs are reliable, that source gives all of five gushing, fawning sentences about the subject; certainly not the "significant coverage" the GNG requires. The Wired entry just namedrops the subject in a single sentence. The Venturebeat item is an interview of the subject, which explicitly cannot be used to support the notability of the subject. And that two page profile in Edge is not about Didier: it is an interview where Didier discusses Blizzard's art direction. Does anyone have any sources to proffer about the subject that aren't namedrops, casual references, interviews of him and the like? Which of the criteria of WP:ARTIST does any keep proponent claim the subject meets? Ravenswing 07:14, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Update: I found a profile of Didier from the Orange County Register called "His doodles turn into video game monsters: Now art director for 'StarCraft II,' Sam Didier has been creating orcs, elves and trolls for Blizzard for more than 20 years."

  • Merge to Blizzard Entertainment. Since his contributions are so enduring, there should be no issue paraphrasing them within the existing article on the topic. Ravenswing's analysis is spot on and I'm really surprised to see the lack of critical engagement with his points. As for the ProQuest abstract, that article is freely online. I wouldn't call it a profile and I'd note that it's from a local paper. Not seeing what significant coverage in these links would be used to build a dedicated article on the topic. Most of the actual coverage is about Blizzard art rather than the individual. Merger with potential to expand is the best compromise of the above points. (not watching, please {{ping}}) czar 17:32, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for finding the full text of the OC Register profile; I used it to add more content to the article, and did the same with the Edge profile. As for Ravenswing's argument, I partly agree with it; I don't think that the Engadget, Wired or Venturebeat references would be that helpful, and I haven't used them in the article. But I think his view of the Edge article is wrong; saying that a profile called "The Art of War: Blizzard's art director, Samwise Didier" is not about Samwise Didier is an odd claim. Ravenswing complains that it discusses Blizzard's art direction, but obviously it would; Didier is the Senior Art Director, and it's discussing his work. The OCR, Gaming Illustrated and Edge sources are useful (and have been used) to build the article. — Toughpigs (talk) 18:34, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, even the external link amounts to nothing of comprehensible substance. Hyperbolick (talk) 16:42, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:NOTDICT: this doesn't seem valuable as a concept in its own right as distinct from Work (human activity)/project management etc. It's perhaps a technical usage of the word "work" distinct from more general uses, but we're not a dictionary. — Bilorv (talk) 16:59, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Complete gobbledygook. And what's worse, it has been incorrectly linked to the 'work' article on all those other-language wikis; just imagine looking at the German article on 'Arbeit (Sozialwissenschaften)', then clicking the English link and seeing this! How nobody has picked up on that in all these years is beyond me. Little point in even listing all the policies this little gem falls foul of — just get rid of it. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:24, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Not completely insane, a short definition within the discipline of project management, but there's nothing here worth saving.

  • Delete and salt per nomination. I couldn't get the third link to open, but even if it worked, "one of the most googled Indian songs" isn't sufficient to pass WP:NSONG. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 17:35, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - The article looks like it has references to reliable sources like Times of India, etc. but those are to the publicity services at those papers in which they allow musicians to post links to their videos, announce new releases, etc. (BBC in England does something similar.) This song has not been reviewed or critically analyzed in any reliable source, and only appears in the typical streaming and retail listings. This title could possibly be redirected to the singer's article if required by policy, but it is pretty obvious that someone is trying repeatedly to promote this song. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 23:49, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • None of your statements demonstrate notability - the WP:NSONG guidelines stipulate that the song should have been recorded "by several notable artists, bands, or groups" (my emphasis).

No evidence of notability via WP:GNG or otherwise. Coverage consists solely of minor mentions from genealogy sites and short news coverage of her wedding. — MarkH21talk 06:53, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep: the very suggestion it be deleted is utterly ridiculous. Highly important German family still constantly in the press. A Google News search for "Marie Cécile Prinzessin" brings up 164 results -- not all for her, because there's more than one princess who bore that name, but a very good many. It's critical to know their backstory and who is who. ClearBreeze (talk) 12:44, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    If this particular person receives significant coverage in independent reliable sources, which is the most general notability guideline, then this person is probably notable. If this person was just a member of a notable family and never received her own significant coverage (and doesn’t satisfy another notability guideline), then there shouldn’t be a standalone article about her. Notability also isn’t about usefulness in writing other things nor genealogical background. — MarkH21talk 12:51, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I’m satisfied if even just for one event (marriage) she passes GNG although I suspect there will be more coverage. She appeared on the cover of Stern (magazine), her marriage the first by a Hohenzollern in Berlin since 1913 was widely reported (NYT is cited in article, news reels covered). - dwc lr (talk) 07:37, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This person has not received the level of coverage throughout her life that would justify having a stand alone article on her. If one event got huge coverage than that is a clear case of not showing actual notability. The insistence that Wikipedia give consideration and deference to all members of a royal house that has been out of power for over a century is also not justified.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:32, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Three out of the four sources are self-published sites/blogs, one of which is deprecated. That leaves a single wedding announcement as her claim to notability, and likely the only topic specific to her that would remain on the page after clearing out the (BLP-violating) list of non-notable living minors.

  • Keep per WP:SIGCOV. While some of the sources are trash and speculate that she would be Queen of England, there are literally Megabytes of information on the Interwebs about her. The subject is the firstborn of the firstborn going back to Queen Victoria. That alone has made her notable and periodically she gets more than a footnote in a news article. BLP1E doesn't apply because her marriage, her philanthropy, and being in the British line of succession mean that every royal birth and death changes her position in the line and it's reported breathlessly in the European media. It's not important to Americans, because we got rid of royalty, but for many people around the world, she is important and thus in the news from time to time. Bearian (talk) 15:58, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Perhaps you can select one or two of the megabytes of information about her that most clearly demonstrate notability? --JBL (talk) 17:12, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @Bearian: Isn’t this the third-born of the second-born of the first-born of the first-born (and last German Emperor) of the first-born of Queen Victoria? She is not the firstborn of the firstborn going back to anybody.
    There are also megabytes of info about lots of non-notable people. Please provide RSes with significant coverage about her in relation to more than a single event. — MarkH21talk 04:32, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Wikipedia is not meant to be a genealogical database. This applies even to people who were part of royal families. Even there we need to demonstrate actual actions, power and coverage. Not every child born to a monarch is notable, especially when the child dies before her parent becomes a monarch. This applies doubly to members of deposed royal families. As they say in Disc World, some things need to be "dragged kicking and screeming into the century of the fruit bat".John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:08, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The article is currently sourced to some YouTube videos featuring the subject, and a commercial website selling a book published by an organisation he worked for. I've looked online for better sourcing, but am not finding anything better. The name Alain Baudet seems to be quite common, so it's possible that I'm missing some stuff about this person amongst all the obituaries and random websites about other people called Alain Baudet, but I don't think he passes WP:GNG.

Delete To pass WP:GNG, sources must be secondary, reliable, and significant. Neither of those papers pass. The first one is about a system for reverse engineering chat protocols. The second one is a study of the protocol directly, which means it is a primary source rather than a secondary source.

  • Keep I added a few sources and will look for a couple more later. In truth most division I college basketball program seasons meet WP:GNG when you look (certainly for the major basketball programs). You have to remember that each team has numerous beat writers that cover every game as well as preseason outlooks and postseason reviews. The result is constant news coverage for every game and development in multiple papers and other news outlets. It is definitely an issue that many college season articles are created without independent sources and often without any prose at all. But if the question is if this season was notable - yes.

This person seems to lack the notability required to pass WP:BIO since all the sources in the article are primary and I was unable to find anything at all about them that would work for notability when I looked.
