Bancroft, California[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Bancroft was a station of the Sacramento Northern Railroad. Built on the property of a wealthy local rancher. Used primarily for loading farm goods. Never was a community and no other notability. [1] Glendoremus (talk) 16:29, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: What about the sources on the page? Like [2], a government website, which lists it as a "Populated (Community) Place" (ie "Place or area with clustered or scattered buildings and a permanent human population (city, settlement, town, village). A populated place is usually not incorporated and by definition has no legal boundaries. However, a populated place may have a corresponding "civil" record, the legal boundaries of which may or may not coincide with the perceived populated place. Distinct from Census and Civil classes."), and [3]. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 18:18, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- GNIS has a terrible track record for accuracy. There are literally hundreds of cases where a remote railroad siding or rail depot has been called a populated place in the GNIS. I should have noted that Durham's "Place Names of the San Francisco Bay Area" call Bancroft a "locality" as distinct from a town or other community. Glendoremus (talk) 20:01, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Please see WP:GNIS and my favorite, the supposedly "populated place" of Susie that was really an industrial railroad spur. The GNIS is worthless when it comes to establishing that a place name is not only an actual community, but a notable one. Reywas92^Talk 23:49, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

delete For some reason there is a longer than usual history of topo maps for this, and they show nothing here until the 1930s. Later ones show a long warehouse-like building alongside the tracks, which aerials show as well, sitting in the midst of an array of orchards, and that is all that there ever was of Bancroft. More recently, the rail line was expanded and elevated, a canal was run through where the building once stood, and suburban sprawl has wiped away any traces of the orchards. GNIS simply copied the name off the topos, but as was said above, the track record for interpreting those names is not good enough for it to be used as a sole authority.

Weak Keep - In fairness he might just pass requirement #1 at WP:NMUSICBIO thanks to articles in Pitchfork and Japan Times, which are already cited. He seems to have gotten some notice for unconventional soundtracks for a couple of notable video games, which might also help with requirement #10. He also has an article in Fader ([4]) that could enhance the Wikipedia entry. However, I would not argue with anyone who thinks that additional reliable sources are necessary, as I can't find much else beyond the routine streaming and industry listings. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 02:54, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was Procedural close. We can't start changing Dixie Mall at this AfD. Consider a formal requested move at which if successful this DAB would be eligible for speedy deletion. Barkeep49 (talk) 04:25, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dixie Mall (disambiguation)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Neither entity is called "Dixie Mall". As far as I can tell, no mall was ever specifically just called "Dixie Mall". Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 21:53, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~: all handled by hatnote on the US mall. Googling suggests that the Canadian mall is definitely referred to informally as "Dixie Mall"- it's quite likely the primary topic so the redirect is going to the wrong one, but this dab page is certainly redundant in any case unless we decide there's no primary topic in which case it should be at Dixie Mall instead of the redirect. PamD 09:18, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh WP:SOFIXIT: I've made a dab page at Dixie Mall. This can now be a redirect to it, so...

~~Redirect~~ to new dab page at Dixie Mall as it isn't clear which is the primary topic. PamD 09:22, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. There are only 2 possible uses and a disambiguation page is not required. Redirect Dixie Mall to Dixie Outlet Mall and put a hatnote there. Shhhnotsoloud (talk)
Delete. Per XLbHammer. No disambiguation is necessary. Edison (talk) 19:41, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I reverted the copy-and-paste duplication of the dab content to the base name. If there's no longer a primary topic, the existing disambiguation page should be moved to the base name. If there's a primary topic (either the current one or the Canadian mall), then the disambiguation page should be deleted. -- JHunterJ (talk) 18:37, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OK, as my attempt to WP:SOFIXIT failed, delete but also retarget Dixie Mall to the Canadian mall which is clearly often thus referred to, rather than the defunct US one. We don't need a dab page if we agree to move from one as primary topic to the other as PT, rather than my proposed compromise of no PT. PamD 22:13, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Suzi Gablik[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Subject fails WP:NPROF, WP:NARTIST, and WP:ANYBIO. As the citations show, she publishes stuff but there's very little about her. Many of the citations fail WP:SPS and I don't count the Smithsonian links simply because she donated notes of hers. I could donate my notes to the Smithsonian, too. I don't think WP:GNG reaches this low. As this is another of Mitzi.humphrey's works, we'll never know the possible extent of the CoI involved here. Regardless, the subject doesn't have a claim to notability. Chris Troutman (talk) 21:41, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There article doesn't do her justice. I just added https://www.jstor.org/stable/43155548. More to come. Vexations (talk) 22:21, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Suzi Gablik is a very well known art historian. Unfortunately her article was created by a notorious COI editor, and is caught in the chain of deletions. I will try to improve it to reflect her notability. Netherzone (talk) 22:23, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

She received a National Lifetime Achievement Award for outstanding achievement in the visual arts by the Women's Caucus for Art.[5] Netherzone (talk) 22:36, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Her work is in the collection of the Smithsonian Museum of American Art and the Black Mountain College Museum; and she has exhibited her work at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. I've added sections for these to her article with three citations. I think she clearly passes NARTIST between the notable award & the two collections. (Sorry for so many edits to this AfD.) Netherzone (talk) 23:02, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Passes WP:AUTHOR by having a substantial body of work reviewed in reliable publications. The article seemed to lack any sense of proportion or of why a person might be notable, but what matters is whether sources exist, even if they weren't yet used. (Also, while I could probably give the Smithsonian 12.8 linear feet of documents, they wouldn't bother to catalogue and archive them.) XOR'easter (talk) 22:26, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Author of seven books on art history, including the Thames & Hudson Magritte book. Easily meets GNG and likely also meets WP:NARTIST.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 23:07, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: The nominator's assertion that he could donate his papers to the Smithsonian is not accurate, unless he's accomplished in some field that I'm not aware of. The Archives of American Art is not a junk drawer. — Toughpigs (talk) 00:01, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Easily passes both WP:AUTHOR and WP:ARTIST. I would argue that anyone with three book reviews in the New York Times is notable regardless of what else there is, but in this case what else there is is plenty. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:08, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Attina Marie Cannaday[edit]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Mississippi-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 21:17, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Per WP:CRIME (perpetrators, bullet two), the crime was historically noteworthy in that Cannaday was a minor sentenced to the death penalty. Also Cannaday's story inspired a film. Her legacy (see the section I added to the article titled Legacy) seems to make this not really 'one event'. (Note: Per WP:BLP1E, if Cannaday is deemed insignificant herself, the information from this page should be merged into a page about the crime itself (ie. the event).)

Body glitter[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This subject seems naturally to fall within Body painting; I'm not seeing independent notability here. GirthSummit _(blether) 21:09, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Fashion-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 21:16, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I go to "Body paint" article and find it means only painting on body but not using other stick-on jewelleries (multi-coloured jewels, gemstone, rhinestones or crystal ornaments). You can search images of "glitter boobs" or "glitter butts" for more details. AneHara (talk) 21:22, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I would have no problem with some sourced content, written in an encyclopedic style, being added to Body painting to indicate that glitter is used sometimes. It's about decorating the surface of the human body with coloured substances - I don't think we need a separate article to cover the occasions when those substances are shiny. GirthSummit _(blether) 12:46, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
delete and then redirect as I did. There is no reason for this to be a standalone article, there is no coverage of the term body glitter and any article would require original research. Praxidicae (talk) 12:39, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so I'll redirect this to a section in Body painting article. AneHara (talk) 10:29, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete & Redirect - To Body paint. I would suggest a merge if there were anything worth merging. As it is, to do so would just about require a complete re-write enroute. Oy vey. --Jack Frost (talk) 10:34, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - She passes the GNG with coverage in multiple Spanish reliable sources.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Reducing her notability to social media activity is just an WP:IDONTLIKEIT argument. Morbidthoughts (talk) 22:15, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Do you think the main/only issue is the promotionalism? And do you feel she otherwise meets the notability criteria? I ask because, on promotionalism alone, at a glance it doesn't seem like the article is so bad that WP:TNT is the only solution.
- I've only really taken a glance at the article. I personally don't place much weight on all of the porno-related links myself. AfD and DRV have consistently reaffirmed the higher standard adult performers need to hit until they can meet notability (most recently in my Eva Lovia AfD), and so in that respect I doubt she meets notability, but I do notice the feature on GQ Spain for example.

Note: I have noticed in the article's history that an account claiming to be Rose Setten herself had requested deletion of the page.

Keep Wp:crime no.2 - certainly something different by sending bill Gates stuff bought from his card. Meets WP:BLPcrime. Also enough coverage in Telegraph, BBC, the guardian, a feature on Frontline on PBS, included in several books and crime discussed in US Congress discussions about improving cyber security. Also unusual as was found guilty but did not get jailed. User:Davidstewartharvey
Keep. Half a dozen high-profile notable interviews: PBS did an interview. BBC has an article. The Independent has an article. The Advocate. The Guardian. Webster New World Hacker's Dictionary. Joint Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit and the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the Committee on Financial Services. Implementing Homeland Security for Enterprise IT. The event is notable and remarkable: I'd agree with "rename", but I'm not sure what we'd rename it to. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 18:38, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The time period of reference has an extreme disconnect between what the FBI were aware of being involved in and what was capable. Here is an example (lousy article rework: https://www.creditcards.com/credit-card-news/secrets-former-credit-card-thief-dan-defelippi-1282/ ) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Purduephotog (talk • contribs) 16:41, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment people are saying that this it notable, and I agree that the hacks themselves pass the GNG however, WP:BLP states:

Being in the news does not in itself mean that someone should be the subject of a Wikipedia article. We generally should avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met
If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event.

If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual. Biographies in these cases can give undue weight to the event and conflict with neutral point of view. In such cases, it is usually better to merge the information and redirect the person's name to the event article.

The event is not significant (I think that this event is significant so this does not apply)

In that case, I think reformulating this article to refer to the event rather than to a low profile individual who hasn't been in the news for two decades would be better. Hemiauchenia (talk) 18:45, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What will the title of the article become? ~a (user • talk • contribs) 18:49, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think changing the title to Curador the name he made the hacks under, would be better.

If changing title what about The Hacking by Curador or Raphael Gray? More self explanatory and makes the page more about the incident? User:Davidstewartharvey

Move to Draft This nomination needs a stated rationale, but I can see several grounds. I am not convinced the subject meets GNG - a routine student, made known in one country for removal from an elected student representative position, and not having done anything very notable since - but as someone has done some work in gathering references, I'd be willing to give a chance to make a proper biography of it.

Delete - While the nominator has not put forward any deletion rationale (and should have, and should frankly should have known that they should have), in terms of WP:COPYVIO, the content here objectively meets WP:G12. In that a very quick check confirms that it was wholescale "copy and pasted" from the sources on which it is based. While some of the copy/pasted content is passed-off as quotes and the like, the rest is not clarified as representing the original authors' work(s). And should be deleted for that reason. Alone. (We can't just wholescale copy and paste from 3 or 4 news articles, and pass it off as an article. We have long had policies in this regard. This is not new information for anyone. Including the editor who created this article.) Otherwise, in terms of WP:SIGCOV and WP:ANYBIO, it seems to me that any article on this subject (if written by an editor not blatantly plagiarising the work of others and pared back to the relevant facts) would fall within WP:BLP1E. Specifically, that the principal claim to notability arises from the subject's election to (and subsequent ejection from) a student representative body. Which, while it generated column inches at the time, all related to (effectively) the same event. In short: the current article should be deleted. As blatant copyvio/plagarism. And anyone contemplating replacing it (with something self-penned) should consider BLP1E. Guliolopez (talk) 00:26, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as per WP:GEOLAND point 1. The source links to a US Government website and is classified by them as a "Populated Place." AFAIK, this is what is meant by "legally recognized" in the context of WP:GEOLAND. AviationFreak 04:01, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. My search did not return any results, nor did the alternate "Jermans" spelling, and the "unincorporated community" label used in the article is completely unsourced. GNIS does not confer legal recognition; it's merely a catalog of place names and locations, and the "populated place" feature class is reserved for places that do not have legal recognition. This appears to be another case of GNIS mislabeling a local landmark as a "populated place" instead of a "locale" as described at WP:GNIS. –dlthewave ☎ 14:51, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I know it is a reasonable debate about whether this is notable enough to be kept, but I would lean in favor of keeping. The location as a place name clearly exists. E.g., [16] ("The first tornado hit between 8:45 p.m. to 9:05 p.m. near German's Corner in Richmond County") (2015); [17] ("Junction of VA-639 and VA-624 near Germans Corner") (1982); [18] ("On February 17, the eagle checked in along the Rappahannock on Mulberry Island, a few miles outside of Germans Corner, VA.") (2019). And it appears on USGS topo maps at least as far back to 1968 (bottom left: [19]). This 1968 book about Richmond County has it under the "Jermans Corner" alternate spelling [20], and tells how it got its name: "Jermans Corner. A locality one and one half miles north of Naylors Beach at junction of Routes 636 and 624. Named for Wilbur L . Jerman, who built a large house there is 1923, where he lived until 1946. His wife, Cleva May, had received a deed to 50 acres, extending south and west of the corner, from her father J.H. Balderson in 1920. On some maps, the name is wrongly spelled German." "Germans Corner" also appears on maps on some documents on the Richmond County website. I don't see an advantage to deletion, I am happy to add these sources to the article. Is the world better off not having easy access to knowing why this locale exists (and is misspelled commonly, now)? Btw, Wilber died in 1968, and Cleva in 1974, you can visit them in Arlington, VA [21].--Milowent • ^hasspoken 13:05, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bejnar While WP:Five pillars states that Wikipedia "combines many features of general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers" that does not mean it actually is any of those things. In fact, it lacks features of all of them - it has too much detail on certain topics for a general encyclopedia, is not particularly focused in the manner of a specialized encyclopedia, lacks the lists of future events such as moon phases and tides found in an almanac, and does not feature the comprehensive lists of geographic features found in gazetteers. Our inclusion criteria places are actually quite exclusive, and in the absence of sources discussing them in detail we don't have articles on mere named locations that have never been settlements.----Pontificalibus 15:50, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The J Curve (book)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This book does not meet the standards of WP:NBOOK. The only source—the Economist’s 2006 Top Books list—is not anything close to establishing notability. Moreover, as documented here and here, it is very likely the company and/or associates of the author, Ian Bremmer, have been engaged in at least a decade of edits from a slew of accounts with the purpose of using Wikipedia as an advertisement. This article is one such example. It should, at best, be part of Ian Bremmer’s page. WhinyTheYounger (talk • contribs) 15:09, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Literature-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 15:12, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Per WP:BKCRIT, "The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself." In addition, to the economist article, it is not hard to find reviews. For example, Carnegie Council, or Foreign Policy magazine (this piece links to a review in the Wall Street Journal, but the link was busted and I'm not going to go find it), or The Telegraph, or BBC, or The Futurist, and I think we could count Military Medicine, too. It satisfies NBOOK criteria. If there is a consensus on combining with the Bremmer page in order to best deal with CoI edition, that is a very reasonable decision that I support. However, on notability, the book crosses the threshold with room to spare. AbstractIllusions (talk) 16:08, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
redirect to author agreed it's reasonably notable, but it's also undeclared paid editing by one of a ring of meatpuppets. the article dates from before our present PAID policy, but meatpupettry was always prohibited. the bio article already contains material on the book, in fact rather too much material, and the section there will need to be abbreviated.

Keep: Is there an "original sin" policy that says that notable subjects should be deleted if the person who created the article had a CoI? If the book is notable, then the article can be edited to take out the promotional content. — Toughpigs (talk) 17:42, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think there is (or should be) an "original sin" policy, but I do think with minimally followed pages a good solution to biased editing, including CoI, is to consolidate to centralize the content. It can be easier to achieve proper weight, balance, and context when the content is consolidated. There has been one major content change to this page (deletion of the horrible Trivia section) since it was established in 2007, which could certainly justify redirecting to author to get the most good editors reading it and adding on to it. Keep is the right decision based on GNG or NBOOK, but to make the content the best it can be, the best decision is probably redirect to author.

Kansas State–Nebraska football rivalry[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

WP:GNG requires If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list. "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content." WP:NRIVALRY states "Sports rivalries are not inherently notable." and defers to GNG.

The article has been tagged re lack of rivalry citations since August 2018, as none of the 3 existing citations support the article's claimed topic. These teams are frequent conference opponents (almost 100 games) due to their status as longtime Big Eight and Big 12 conference members. However, searches do not return significant coverage of any rivalry, with many of the matches tied to WP:PRIMARY or non-RS sources such as fan sites. Fails GNG policy requirements.

Comment Let's start with basics: This was never a major, traditional rivalry. That said, a reasoned argument can be made that there should be room on Wikpedia to record historically-significant series that have been played more than 90 times. Criteria qualifying this series as historically notable include (a) frequency of play - 95 total games spanning from 1911 to 2010; (b) geographic proximity - at 135 miles the closest competitors in the Big 12; and (c) eight marquee matchups where both teams were ranked, including 1995 (#2 v #8). The second-ever televised college football game in 1939 is also a plus. Lack of competitiveness is a counterbalancing factor with Nebraska holding a 78–15–2 edge, though that's heavily skewed by Nebraska's total dominance in the Devaney/Osborne era. Finally, and while not dispositive IMO, there are instances of the series being called a rivalry: ESPN ("Cornhuskers ended a 99-year rivalry with Kansas State").

10 is IMdb, which is not a reliable or notability-supporting source, and #2 is a 67-word blurb in a listicle, which is not substantive enough to count as a GNG-supporting source if it's very nearly the best source on offer.

Delete. While I do share the concerns expressed above about whether the nominator is acting in good faith or not (see also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/More of Our Stupid Noise (2nd nomination), in which I expressed doubts about the same editor), the sourcing here just isn't cutting it. By far the majority of the footnotes are primary sources that are not support for notability at all, and even the few that are real media mostly still just namecheck AJ Mattioli's existence without being about AJ Mattioli to any non-trivial degree. There's only one source here that's substantive enough to start getting us somewhere, but that's not enough all by itself, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt AJ Mattioli from having to have a lot more than just one notability-building source.

Legends of Alcatraz[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article is WP:SENSATIONAL WP:FRINGE content: there are multiple citations of the Weekly World News (!!), and the bibliography is full of such academic tomes as "Ghost Hunting: How to Investigate the Paranormal", "Hell House: And Other True Hauntings from Around the World", etc.; a sentence in the lead about Native American legends is sourced to something titled "Famous Ghosts and Haunted Places". The reality-based content is limited, pushed to the margins, and intentionally framed to minimize its impact.

At a minimum, the current article content calls for WP:TNT. Moreover, I think that it is not possible to write a proper encyclopedic article on this topic. Superficially, there is a lot of sourcing, but the book references are pretty much all unusable trash. Omitting WWN, the newspaper references are soft-news puff pieces, many of them published in October (i.e., in the lead-up to Halloween), or book reviews of the kind of trashy books being used as sourcing. Per WP:SENSATIONAL and WP:FRINGE, these sources should all be excluded from any measure of notability in the encyclopedic sense. And at the end that leaves nothing. Probably the content could be trimmed down to one paragraph, to be included in the article Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, and redirected there. JBL (talk) 15:03, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete - No evidence that there is an actual subject matter here; just little bits of poorly-sourced crap which relate to Alcatraz but cannot be said to constitute an actual topic. This doesn't even fall under the category of, "We know it's nonsense, but it's notable nonsense." The plural of anecdote, as they say, is not data; the fact that if you scour the bottom of the intellectual bucket roughly enough, bits of crud will rise to the surface, does not mean that the bits of crud piled together will make an actual topic. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:19, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom and Orangemike. Silly-season fluff is not a solid foundation for an encyclopedia article. XOR'easter (talk) 15:52, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. I fully agree that Alcatraz haunting legends are notable. But there are not enough WP:FRIND independent sources to justify a stand alone article. Once you strip out all the sources (e.g. paranormal themed books) pushing the WP:FRINGE belief that ghosts exist, can be detected by psychics and ghost hunter gadgets, and the sensational "silly season" stuff, plus all the WP:OR "padding" about gruesome deaths, insanity, mistreatment of prisoners, etc. (and Mark Twain's quote that he found the island gloomy and cold falls into this category) -- I doubt if there are enough WP:FRIND independent reliable sources with which to construct an encyclopedic article. The most that could be confirmed to be notable by reliable independent sources is that some people believe Alcatraz is haunted. And that could be accomplished by a line or two at the main Alcatraz article. - LuckyLouie (talk) 17:37, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Per nom. The article is a mess of "information" sourced to WP:FRINGE publications, tourist-trap style travel guides, tabloids (as noted by the nom, the Weekly World News is cited multiple times as if it were a reliable source), and WP:SYNTH. The few respectable looking sources are either being used to support general information on the prison that has nothing to do with the so-called "legends", or being wildly misconstrued. For example, several of the actual legitimate sources may speak of the prison feeling "haunted" or "sinister" in a metaphorical sense, but it is clear from the context of the actual source that that they are not talking about literal ghosts, which this article intentionally misinterprets to support these "legend" claims. In some cases, the cited sources appear to be outright lies, as the source they are using does not even mention the information that the article claims it does. While the topic of legends regarding the iconic location might actually be a legitimate topic that could be discussed somewhere, perhaps as part of the main Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary page, this particular article should not be kept, merged, or preserved in any way, as it fails the most basic tests of WP:VERIFIABILITY in its content.

Speedy Keep including re the ~~4 existing~~ 7 WP:RS direct citations with quotations, tied to the Bonham Trophy and/or Battle for the Bonham Trophy which is "exchanged between the states' governors." This travelling trophy (which itself easily passes GNG) is a hallmark of a college football rivalries and supports the rivalry claim. To the extent there is disagreement(?), this article would simply by retitled as "Bonham Trophy" and moved to Category:College football rivalry trophies in the United States, where there are more than 100 similar existing articles and redirects. UW Dawgs (talk) 15:55, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment re prior 2019 article move (retitling) and the cause/history of this AfD listing.

This article was originally Bonham Trophy for which there are now 7 direct, RS citations and quotations included in the article.(see here) In Nov 2018, the article's "rivalry or trophy" title was discussed at Talk:Bonham Trophy#rivalry or trophy. Without discussion, the article was moved to the current "rivalry" location in Jan 2019.[27] The moving editor was then pinged on Talk, nothing occured, and the article has retained its current "rivalry" title. Probably a mistake in hindsight.

Yesterday, the same editor who retitled this as a "rivalry" article made a non-sequitur comment[28] about this article on an unrelated AfD (where they had created that article) without referencing prior their movement/retitling of this article. And 11 hours later, another editor created this AfD listing, without apparent awareness or reference to prior undiscussed retitling/movement or Talk discussion of this article.

So again, we might not be discussing the same topics. The trophy (and this article's intended topic at creation) clearly and easily pass GNG policy with multitple RS citations and direct quotations on point. That said, the outcome should be Keep or Revert to original title plus additional categorization with 100+ other sibling CFB trophy articles in Category:College football rivalry trophies in the United States.

Delete. A grand total of six games played . . . all since 2014 . . . and South Carolina has not yet won even a single game . . . this is supposed to be a notable rivalry? A very, very strong case can be made that this is way, way too soon. Yes, the athletic department administrators got together and created some sort of trophy in an effort to stir up a "rivalry", but two of the sources cited (here and here) are about how the supposed "rivalry" is viewed as a joke with neither the coaches nor the fan bases even realizing there was a trophy. Try again in a decade, if this really turns into a rivalry (and after the Gamecocks have won a few games). Cbl62 (talk) 16:48, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A bit more: Other than the creation of the trophy nobody knows about, this series fails every criteria for traditional rivalries: (i) lack of history (dates to 2014), (ii) lack of frequency (6 total games); (iii); lack of competitiveness (0-6); (iv) lack of geographic proximity (1,100 miles); (v) lack of marquee matchups with both teams ranked (zero); and (vi) lack of fan base frenzy factor.

Weak delete. As a retired community college professor he's unlikely to pass WP:PROF, which is aimed at research universities. As a prolific textbook author he has a reasonable chance at WP:AUTHOR, but as JPL wrote above, "writing textbooks alone does not make one notable", one needs in-depth independent sourcing about those textbooks, such as published reviews or published reports by non-authors about how well a curriculum based on those texts worked.

merge this article and Autokoritehdasto History of Sisu Auto and split a good bit of the history section in Sisu Auto to that article as well. I don't see an independent pass of WP:NCORP or WP:GNG, but cannot read Finnish. As the creator says, the content mainly helps provide context to Sisu Auto (and the Sisu article is pretty long already), and that would be best served in a history article Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 15:50, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Again do not take this personally it's just that I think that Marie's page should not be deleted however if that's the choice the administrators take It's fine by me- Rajputudor — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rajputudor (talk • contribs) 17:06, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to agree with you Rajputudor, but the details on her are very thin at this stage. She is definately a redirect in my view (and is chronicled in several databases of nobility, plus her familial connections are all notable), however, we would need more content/references about her to support a standalone article on her. However, I have merged her references and content to her husband's article and I think a Redirect to his article, John II, Duke of Lorraine, will work.

Comment. Of the few blue links in this list, most link to completely unrelated articles; the few that are remotely relevant link to places. I'm not sure what kind of "name" this list is even intended to include, as it is the list seems completely arbitrary as to what is included. There is no "Zambian language", it is instead highly ethnically and linguistically diverse, so that may further speak to whether such a list even makes sense together.

Delete. Being leader of a minor political party without legislative representation is not an automatic inclusion freebie, and neither is being that party's gubernatorial candidate — the notability test for politicians is holding a notable political office, not just running for one. And of the nine footnotes here, six are primary sources that are not support for notability at all, such as his own party's self-published content about itself and raw tables of election results from the state elections agency — and of the three that are actually media, two are the purely routine "candidate questionnaire on the issues" that every candidate in every election always gets, thus not constituting evidence that his candidacy is special, and the third is not about him at all, but just offers a glancing namecheck of his existence in an article whose primary subject is somebody else. This is not enough. Bearcat (talk) 11:17, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What political offices are deemed notable? Holding an elected regional (multi-county) Supervsior position for a State Agency isn't good enough? Today Lutz has been announced as the party's gubernatorial nominee. While I agree the sources can be improved upon, that "glancing namecheck" characterization is hyperbolic and overlooks the reality that Lutz not only organized the event, but in his current elected position is a major stakeholder in the controversy. Better sources and information will be added. Gappalachia (talk) 22:20, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No, a regional supervisor position for a state agency definitely is not good enough, and no, being his party's gubernatorial nominee is not an inclusion freebie either. The only "inherently" notable roles that automatically guarantee inclusion in Wikipedia the moment a person holds them are: president, state governor, cabinet officials, national and state legislators. And no, not candidates for those offices, either: actual holders of those offices only. Any other role below the state legislature gets a person an article only if they can be shown to have a nationalized profile backed by nationalized coverage.

Delete Lutz is not even the state level leader of the Mountain party, he is just the person on the comittee from State Senate District 16. That means at best he is one of 16 members of the state party leadership, or in the top 17, and for all I know there are more than 16 state senate districts in West Virginia. Even if Lutz was with the party that controlled the governorship and state legislature, he would still not be considered notable for holding the position he holds. When it is a party that has 0 members in the state legislature, than this is absurdly far from making him notable. Again, he is not the state head, so that is not even remotely close to being a sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:11, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Placed in mainspace for 2nd time by WP:SOCK after declined WP:AFC. WP:AFC has a slightly higher bar than WP:AFD so may be survivable. Probably/possibly WP:G5 eligible however I am not complete sure that an article is unwarranted. Unclear if notability has been established, the WP:CITEBOMB on international conferences spoken at seems insufficient by itself per WP:NACADEMIC and may be WP:A7 eligible for failure to demonstrate notability. Poor embellishment of citations does not help .... If an article is to be citebombed by foreign languauge citations that are needed for notability then the key ones in particular need full embellishment and perhaps pointing one on the talk page. If retained article and any redirects need to be salted. Given interest on SOCKs on this article closers may need to tkae that into account for !votes from IPs and newly created accounts. Thankyou.

Keep but Userfy by moving to User:Khadim ahlesunnah waljamaah/Sandbox2 (thus preserving the article history). If this man is as notable as the many citations to sources in Indian languages suggests, it is surprising that there are no articles on him in other languages Wikipedias. There does not seem to be any evidence of his notability in English.
But, there is a very good reason for preserving the article history. That anyone would want to spend their time improving this article appears to be very strong evidence that they are a sockpuppet, either of Khadim ahlesunnah waljamaah or someone else.

It's also necessary to still salt the names (though there are so many variations of some of these names it is nightmare).

I'm inclined to say nuke it. I would believe the topic is notable, given its discussion in reliable scholarly sources, but the article as written is very synthy, jargony, and self-referential, and most of it is about what decoloniality isn't. An option short of just WP:TNTing it would be to redirect to Coloniality of power and include a very small section on the idea of decoloniality, using something like this as a reference, but I'm not totally sure that the current article adds to anyone's knowledge. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 17:29, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a real field with tens of thousands of citations across several disciplines. See https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=decolonial&btnG=. Definitely notable.

Keep Typical wikilord nonsense. "If I, the overseer of all knowledge, don't know what this is, it must be nothing!" Decoloniality, rather obviously, is a response to Aníbal Quijano's (and other's) concept of the coloniality of power. Looking at the state of those articles, it's clear this is an area not as well covered on the English Wikipedia. Quijano's page in Spanish, on the other hand, is far more developed. Go figure, a philosophy/ideology well-established in the global south (you know, just half the planet and the vast majority of the human population), is relatively unknown to the ethnocentric and grievously myopic West. As others have said, the topic is noteworthy, so just because it does not conform to whatever arbitrary formatting standards, doesn't mean it should be deleted. It just needs work. Alternatively, one might argue that it be renamed decolonial theory or decolonialism, both of which currently redirect to this page. I really wish someone would do some sort of research on the general white supremacist bias of EN-Wikipedia vis-a-vis the demographic makeup of its editors. Don't @me. KermitO (talk) —Preceding undated 18:53, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Jazzcowboy. This an important idea in sociology scholarship, and I don't know what the nominator means by primary sources. If it's that they tend to be from scholars in this area, that's completely benign for an academic subject. I will say that the article indeed needs serious attention in terms of structure and formatting, which I'll try to help with. We also need to sort out the subject's relationship with Coloniality of power, Anti-imperialism (where Anti-colonialism redirects) and, to some extent, Decolonization, which we define much more literally, but I frequently see used in this context. --BDD (talk) 16:20, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I've completed an initial review with an eye towards providing structure, integrating wikilinks, and clarifying language. Since the subject is detailed and academic by nature, it's tough to come up with the right balance for a general encyclopedia, but I've done my best.

Local politician that fails to meet notability guidelines both as a politician and as a figure. His tenure in Barrington Hills, Illinois had no unusual events to warrant significantly different coverage than any other suburban mayor. His congressional campaign fails the Christine O'Donnell test. Finally, I could only find a single patent to his name which while impressive (I will likely never patent anything or hold public office despite those both being cool things to do) does not meet notability.

Delete. Barrington Hills is not a significant enough place to confer an automatic inclusion freebie on all of its mayors just for being mayors per se, being an unsuccessful candidate for higher office does not bolster his notability at all, and the article is referenced nowhere close to well enough to get him over the "more notable than the norm" bar that people at these levels of public prominence would have to clear.

Delete I found nothing in the 1917 and 1940 histories of Contra Costa County. It is present on the 1908 Antioch USGS map but not on other maps I checked. It was likely just the name of a railroad station, as the nearby town of Pittsburg was named "Black Diamond" at the time. −−− Cactus Jack 🌵 01:27, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
delete Well, this is a new one on me: the first GNIS entry I've found copied from a nautical chart. And yes, the spot is still labelled on the current edition of the chart, but there just is not and never has been anything there: it's an area between two rail lines which join just to the west (the GNIS location is conspicuously wrong, BTW: it's too far south), now occupied by a factory. It seems obvious to me that a nautical chart isn't a reliable source for anything not nautical, but apparently the GNIS compilers thought otherwise, or more likely didn't consider the question.

The result was delete. There is consensus to delete. This consensus is only partially for notability concerns. As such this AfD should not prevent an AfC reviewer from accepting should they feel that a draft establish notability and complies with policies around promotional edits.

Failing WP:GNG and notability for places or companies - whichever this is. Sources given are either primary (developer website) or business listing sites. The few media sources mention the development in passing. There's also an article in draft that failed AfC at first instance Draft:Ham Palm Villas.

Delete - Does not satisfy general notability, corporate notability, or notability for places. Author is attempting to game the system by spamming with both articles and drafts. Delete this in article space. Leave it alone in draft space. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:59, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello team: Jake Brockman. In my appeal, Since this article is categorized as Promotional, i request that you instead guide me, about making drafts and Articles at the Same time, that one i really have Understood, i am going to request for merge, or tag the draft for Quick deleting, i really request you people to guide me and help me becoming a better contributor here, Let me know all the issues with my drafts and Articles, once this is done, others will surely be great, i have really understood and learnt alot throughout my previous deleted articles, drafts, and edits that i have been making on wiki.

The only challenge that i think i am remaining with, is the wiki commons, i do work on most of the external sites for the Companies and individuals, whose articles/Pages i intend to write or put here,: with the Cameras and Drones, i always capture raw work which i later edit to my preference,The raw work is always very heavy that can take much time loading once uploaded and sometimes in formats that are not wiki enabled or always require polishing to meet my digital quality, hence the reason i name them the company or individual names, for those individuals some times they can be accessible for me to take decent pictures from their office/homes, thus i at times end up choosing and editing the best ones from the random taken randomly at functions of previous dates, Resistance the current picture at Hamis Kiggundu and the previous one, you'll find that it is the same picture with different backgrounds, why?? because i didn't want to use a Picture with a function background, that is why on(https://hamenterprises.co.ug/our-team/) i removed the background, just like other pictures that you see there. But when i saw the deletion tag, i realized the article will remain without a picture, but then i upload an edited version of the original one , because the original one is indeed very heavy with a great resolution and its back ground is not fit for such a corporate profile,but all my work. If only in could get access to the Subject matter, then everything could be easier for me here, otherwise, if there is any kind of proof: regarding ownership of any uploaded picture: i will provide as soon as i see the request. I therefore REQUEST for further advise/guidance regarding my wiki commons commons uploads.

Regarding the Ham Palm Villas, i thought i had done my best; but really request that you guide me do the necessary corrections and Keep the Article. I had first made it Company because they are run and managed under a company registered as Halm Palm Villas SMC LTD^[5], but later made it a Luxury Residential Residential Community, because it is like a village with 500 residential housing units. I called it Luxury because not anyone can afford to be in a community for a $500,000K work house, i call that a Luxury lifestyle for a certain class of people. I really do not want to make any promotional page or article, because at the end of the day i as an individual do not benefit, apart from the owner who doesn't even know me. May intention is basically to contribute to informative and Motivational content, for individuals and Communities/Organizations that really have a great impact to their Localities. I have attached my other citations/Sources that gave reason for creation of this page, in addition to the ones in the article. and i really look forward to improving this page to meet the Wikipedia's acceptable standards and i look, Thank you very much in advance. ^[6] Mark Mulwanyi (talk) 20:01, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails general notability and corporate notability as the sourcing is almost entirely listings, passing mentions or primary. Best, GPL93 (talk) 18:20, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
