Afrosphere[edit]

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

Doesn't seem to be a widely-used term. I found several blogs using the term "Afrosphere", but few to none discussing its actual use as a term in the blogosphere. Of the four sources in the article, two don't even use the word "Afrosphere" at all. Seems to fail WP:NEO. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 23:16, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Matthew Mahoney (New York)[edit]

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

Subject appears to be a fairly middling government/political figure, who has held mid-level offices in government departments (associate commissioner, deputy director, advisor to candidates but never the candidate), and therefore receives occasional mentions in local news coverage.

Delete. He has not held any role that would confer an automatic pass of WP:NPOL, but the stack of badly formatted references aren't getting him over WP:GNG: it consists of a mix of primary sources (press releases, staff profiles on the self-published websites of his own employers, etc.) that aren't support for notability at all, and news articles that mention his name without being about him to any non-trivial degree. That's not how you reference a person as being notable enough for inclusion: he has to be the subject of a source, not just a name present in the text of an article about a different subject, before that source counts as a data point toward making him notable. Bearcat (talk) 15:46, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete there's about one good source in the article, which is written like a resume that's been fleshed out. He doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:NPOL. SportingFlyer T·C 17:10, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Georgia Chapman[edit]

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

Contested PROD. I added one source to the article but even that one only gives her a passing mention as the sister of a more notable footballer. Aside from that article, there is this one but I'm not sure that that is enough to build a biography from. I hoped to find some decent coverage of her as captain of Australia U23 but I couldn't find anything. I have to conclude that this is unlikely to pass WP:GNG.

Fails WP:NFOOTBALL as per [1] and [2] and not being listed at Barry Hugman's Footballers.

Fails WP:GNG:

[3] - Daily Mail is a deprecated source
[4] - transfer rumour
[5] - blog
[6] - tabloid article about Soccer AM appearance
[7] - transfer news
[8] - transfer news
[9] - Soccer AM mention again. Not sure if the source is reliable.

Keep - meets NFOOTBALL, there's coverage out there, had a significant non-league career (played for Dunstable Town, Hitchin Town, Arlesey Town, Hendon, Aylesbury United, Slough Town, Yeading, Wingate & Finchley, Hemel Hempstead Town, Berkhamsted Town, Northwood, Boreham Wood, Chesham United) - searching his name and those clubs brings back more and more coverage. Giant Snowman 22:17, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unless the page reflects what GiantSnowman said, and I really don't consider that career notable really. I am more inclined to say delete for the article failing GNG. There also appears to be a boxer with the same name, don't know if it's the same person. Unless the article was improved I am still going to say delete.

An article needing improvement is not a reason for deletion. Giant Snowman 21:51, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - He definitely has played for a lot of clubs but the coverage is bordering on routine [13] [14] [15] [16] [17]. This one is probably the best but it's still quite weak. Spiderone 14:46, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Appears to fail WP:GNG. I agree that the Bucks Free Press article could be in-depth coverage (it BFP a regional newspaper that could qualify under GNG?), but there needs to be more, and everything else looks routine. Jogurney (talk) 04:25, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NAUTHOR looked somewhat plausible to me, but I didn't find quickly find reviews of his books for it. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 22:43, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, in absence of reliable independent reviews for WP:NAUTHOR (which I did not find). Citation record is too weak for WP:NPROF C1, and I don't see evidence of other notability criteria, from NPROF or otherwise. The article originator claims the books are influential, but I don't see evidence for that in reliable sources. I'll watch the discussion, and will change my !vote if better sources are found.

Pandering cruft, feels written like a PR piece for the current admin in some places, and if not WP:TNT'd, needs major cleanup to be encyclopedic. Wikipedia does not host WP:ESSAYS, and this is very much one.

Delete per WP:TNT. While a decent article on the topic could in theory be written, the text accumulated here is more of an impediment to that than a starting point for it. XOR'easter (talk) 21:08, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - the Deletion concerns appear to mostly be based on the fact that it is written like an essay despite the fact the article might be on interest. Remember that AfD is not supposed to be for cleanup. Foxnpichu (talk) 23:20, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Foxnpichu, Per the quoted WP:TNT, sometimes articles are irrecoverable junk, and it's easier to start over than salvage. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 03:30, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Under that theory, I suggest a Draftify. That means we can keep any information that might be worthy, and if we feel the remade article isn't good enough, well, it is just a draft. Foxnpichu (talk) 14:48, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What's more, I can find news articles in a Google search from 2012 to 2017 that could help expand the article in question to fill in her time as an assistant secretary of state. Jay Coop · Talk · Contributions 22:55, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
JayCoop, (1) Do you mean Keep? (2) What makes her different from the other people in that list is that there does not appear to be WP:SIGCOV of her, whereas there may be SIGCOV of those other people. See also WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. If you are able to find SIGCOV of her, please post it. All I can see are articles mentioning her in the context of discussing Antony Blinken, such as [22]. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 23:18, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I didn't do a huge amount of searching but what I did find (and what is already cited in the article) seems to point to there being stuff out there. As for whether everything in the context of Blinken, https://www.politico.com/newsletters/transition-playbook/2020/11/20/biden-rewards-loyalty-791808 is one I quickly found which, although it only has one sentence, mentions her without reference to Blinken. It would probably take a fair bit of digging to get super deep into WP:SIGCOV, but the mere fact that there are a lot of sources you'd have to consult is a good sign in terms of notability.

Keep as this person is a prominent example of Interfaith marriage in Christianity/Interfaith marriage in Judaism (supposedly, her husband, Blinken is Jewish, see Antony Blinken#Personal life: "In 2002, Blinken married Evan Ryan in a bi-denominational ceremony officiated by a rabbi and priest at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Washington, D.C.^[1]^[2]...Blinken is Jewish.^[3]"). This is an important subject because so many of Biden's inner circle are either Jewish or married to Jews, such as Kamala Harris, and all three of Biden children married Jews. This is important material for an article such as Interfaith marriage between gentiles and Jews in the Joe Biden presidency. Thank you, IZAK (talk) 23:57, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'll raise you a WP:NOTINHERITED. SportingFlyer T·C 00:03, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

IZAK, please read WP:BASIC. Being one-half of prominent example of interfaith marriage does in no way guarantee that Evan herself is notable. We cannot base a biography on a marriage announcement. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 00:24, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AleatoryPonderings I see what you are saying, but interfaith marriage is now a distinctive feature of the impending Biden era and she and Blinken, just as Jewish Doug Emhoff has an article that goes with his spouse Kamala Harris, and notably historically Biden's three kids married to Jewish spouses. If it's not notable, it certainly is from the point of view of Interfaith marriage in Christianity/Interfaith marriage in Judaism. But I agree with you, this is not the main reason for making anyone notable on WP. IZAK (talk) 02:54, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Blackrock, California[edit]

Older topos label this "Blackrock Springs", and indicate it to be a body of water, not a settlement, though they show a couple of buildings there. More recently it has become the site of a fish hatchery, and at that point the topos start to lalbel it just "Blackrock". But all the buildings there are accounted for by the hatchery.

Merge and move as suggested by power~enwiki. This appears to be a redundant article on the exact same topic as Fantastique. Rorshacma (talk) 17:13, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This article is about Todorov's conception of the fantastic, and cites several scholarly books (Brooke-Rose, Capoferro, Jackson, Siebers, Traill) that extensively engage with that conception and strongly indicate its notability. It's not hard to find many more good sources on the subject: [25], [26], [27], [28]. To the extent that this article covers the same ground as fantastique it's because the latter article is much more muddled, much less well-sourced, and probably not about a notable topic. If there were to be a merge it should be that article (or whatever parts of it are salvageable) that's merged into this one, not the other way around. (I wouldn't object to moving the disambiguation page to the base name and this to fantastic (genre) or similar, but that needn't be decided here.) – Arms & Hearts (talk) 23:08, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Arms & Hearts: I think both these articles are very poor, when reading this page I could not understand what it was supposed to be about.

Keep. Please see the last paragraph of the Definition section of Fantastique, which explains that Todorov's Fantastic is different than what the Fantastique article attempts to explain. Both articles appear to have merit in their own right. This particular article is very well referenced and supported - if the issue is the overlap with Fantastique, I'd like to keep both and encourage some additional work to separate the two apparently disparate topics.--Concertmusic (talk) 16:21, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nick Fury in other media[edit]

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

Unnecessary article split. This information should be summarized in the main article. We do not need a list of every trivial appearance of the character. The MCU rendition has its own article. The sources in the article are largely promotional or trivial mentions for satisfying WP:V, so there is nothing here to make the topic of "Nick Fury in other media" notable. Unless this should be reformatted into "List of media featuring Nick Fury," this has no reason to exist. I don't particularly think a general encyclopedia has a duty to categorize the every appearance of every single fictional character outside of extensive real world context making it necessary on a per character basis.

Keep - Nick Fury in other media already does a good job of summarising everything without going into excruciating detail. There's also no way that this would all fit onto the main page. And yes, "In other media" sections are expected to cover all of a character's appearance across multiple forms of media. The only things that don't get covered are brief cameos and trivial references/non-appearances.

Nick Fury's history and appearances through various forms of media are covered extensively by reliable sources as well. More than anything, this looks like fishing around for the next big nomination spree. Dark knight 2149 19:29, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Character in other media" is also the community-wide standard for articles like this and it has been discussed in the past. If you have a problem with this title format, that is not a concern for AFD. AFD is not clean-up or an activism page for any problems you have with how articles are procedurally handled. Dark knight 2149 19:38, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Internal project consensus does not matter if the article content fails policies and/or guidelines. As an article, this fails WP:GNG. As a list, it fails WP:LISTN. This does not inherent notability from the parent article because it is not necessary information and the parent article is not too large to accommodate a reasonable summary. Fictional information needs to be summarized if there is no contextual real world information making that necessary. "Brief cameos and trivial references" is a subjective measure of importance, and I would gauge most of this list to be of that level of triviality in the scope of a general encyclopedia. This topic deserves one to three paragraphs in the main article summarizing the most important points. TTN (talk) 20:04, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The only problem is that it fails neither of those. Nick Fury's history of being adapted into various forms of media is well documented and covered by reliable sources. If anything, WP:LISTN only supports a keep vote, because it specifies directly "The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been."

This does not inherent notability from the parent article because it is not necessary information and the parent article is not too large to accommodate a reasonable summary.

This is also incorrect. On top of passing LISTN, the list already is summarised reasonably and doesn't go into unnecessary detail at all. Your insistence that it is "unnecessary information" and "trivial" in itself is a subjective measure of importance, and one that doesn't align with community consensus. "In other media" sections are expected to cover the character's history of appearing in other media. It is "trivial" when we are dealing with cameos and passing references. Fiction is one of the topics covered by Wikipedia. Dark knight 2149 20:24, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The topic of “Nick Fury in other media” is not notable as a group or individually. That individual pieces of other pieces of media may be talked about is not an indication that this particular topic as a whole has achieved notability. For that, you would need sources specifically talking about the character in mass media as a whole, separate from the comics, which seems impossibly specific. Otherwise, such sources contribute only to the notability of the character.
All fiction needs to be summary style. If the content is exceeding its weight in the main article and lacks the notability to stand alone, then it is not necessary. That indicates the need to trim the section down to its most important parts as indicated by coverage in sources. Listing appearances in which the character is not titular figure is absolutely not a necessary split. TTN (talk) 20:58, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Read the article. It already is summary-style, and per WP:LISTN, only the general topic needs extensive secondary coverage (which it has). On top of that, the appearances themselves act as primary sources and you can likely find most (if not all) of the appearances discussed in the many sources covering this topic anyway. It honestly feels like you're looking for an excuse to mass-nominate as many "other media" articles as you can find. Dark knight 2149 21:42, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Summary style in this case would mean a summarization of each genre(?) of media. There is no need to list every video game appearance. They are not important for general knowledge on the character. What is important is that the character has appeared in numerous video games, and a proper summarization of the topic would use examples of the most prominent to describe the character's general usage in gaming. There do not appear to be any Nick Fury-based games, but something like List of Superman video games makes perfect sense to exist. "List of video games in which Superman has appeared" would be absolutely unnecessary and bloated. That list does have a small, curated subsection dedicated to that, but that's only a fraction of what would exist in a full list of every game in which the character has appeared. TTN (talk) 21:57, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or merge as there are insufficient sources to support three separate topics, between the main Nick Fury article, Alternate versions of Nick Fury, and now this Nick Fury in other media. We should not create multiple non-notable WP:CONTENTFORKs that don't meet the WP:GNG as three separate topics and articles. I would also support a merge as that was the consensus at Alternate versions of Nick Fury. Jontesta (talk) 21:15, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Jontesta: Per WP:NEXIST, WP:ARTN, WP:ATD, and WP:HANDLE, that's not how WP:GNG or coverage works. The sourcing in the article has nothing to do with whether something is notable or deleted, which only depends on the existence of extensive coverage. Nick Fury's history of appearing in adapted media is covered extensively outside of Wikipedia. "The sources in the article are insufficient" means nothing as far as deletion goes. Dark knight 2149 21:42, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Topic fails stand-alone (GNG) requirements for an article, this is just a catalogue like list of trivia that also fails LISTN. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:11, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Piotrus: Really? By what measure does it fail either of those?

Per WP:GNG, "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."

Per WP:LISTN, "Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group. One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been."

The topic passes both of those requirements rather easily. Dark knight 2149 22:16, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Darkknight2149: I am not seeing any reliable sources that provide a comprehensive view of "Nick Fury in other media", so GNG/LISTN is failed. But if you want to draw my attention to some sources, please ping me here with links, I am never above revising my view&vote. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:28, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or Merge with the main page, but send the information of the Ultimate Marvel's version to it's page if the outcome is merge. As for the amalgamated versions, share it on both pages. --Rtkat3 (talk) 22:11, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Since people are still voting "merge" for some reason, I figured I should go ahead and post some of the many sources covering Nick Fury's history of appearing in other media. It certainly helps that most (nearly all) of the appearances listed are already individually sourced in the current revision of the article.

I stand by my earlier statement that this feels like an attempt to start a "Nominate all In other media articles for deletion" bandwagon. A merge would only result in nearly all of the appearances listed in Nick Fury in other media being re-added to Nick Fury in paragraph form. No merge is even necessary, because this topic easily passes WP:LISTN. Dark knight 2149 07:21, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I’m truly confused at what you think you’re posting. Nobody disputes that the character has appeared in a multitude of media, but how does that show this page needs to exist? You posted many that are attributed to characters that already have their own pages as well. That also doesn’t change that there is no need to list most of the content in the article. It is simply trivial information that can easily be summarized in the main article. TTN (talk) 12:04, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just to give a couple examples, Goku#In other media and Naruto Uzumaki#In other media are the quickest I can find that sufficiently wrap up long history in a number of dedicated paragraphs. There's plenty of media not listed there because it doesn't matter. We're a not a comprehensive guide to each franchise. This is a general encyclopedia. Just because the comics-space has ingrained content-bloat into its style does not mean that it's actually the proper way of organizing information. I get it's a bit different due to way more unconnected adaptations, but anything that is not important to a summary paragraph is too unimportant to be in the article. TTN (talk) 12:17, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is an encyclopedic guide to anything that has coverage by reliable sources and is notable. That can sometimes include fictional elements. We have a forey of reliable sources that heavily discuss (and are devoted primarily to) Nick Fury's appearances outside of the comics, especially (but not limited to) film and television. The current version of Nick Fury in other media is also pretty economical and avoids going into unnecessary detail, and most of the individual appearances listed are already verified by some sort of citation anyway. I'm just struggling to see a policy reason to merge. Dark knight 2149 21:55, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

But you haven't given any sources discussing the concept of the character outside of the comics. You've given sources of adaptations outside of the comics. Those are two different things. For this list to to stand on its own, you'd need actual discussion based on the concept of the character outside of comics. Most of the sources aren't even discussing anything. It's just typical press release stuff, which is only suitable for verification purposes. This is still just a content fork of the main article, so we have to look at it from the idea of this being placed in the main article. It would be trimmed down to the essentials in that case, as with pretty much every major non-comic character I can find. TTN (talk) 01:26, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I agree with above, stuff like this should be taken care of with merges, not AFDs.★Trekker (talk) 19:14, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @*Treker and Andrew Davidson: Given the extensive coverage of the topic, the fact that the current article doesn't go into excessive detail, and the fact that nearly all of the individual appearances in the article are already sourced, what policy-based reason is there to merge? Genuine question. It clearly passes WP:LISTN and the point above about "Wikipedia isn't Wikia and I don't think this is important to cover" isn't a very good argument. Dark knight 2149 19:20, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - The current title is clearly written as part of a set as the phrase "other media" only makes sense in a wider context such as a navigational template. This is not ideal IMO as sources for the topic have clearer titles such as The Encyclopedia of Superheroes on Film and Televison. But such sources demonstrate that such framing is both notable and encyclopedic. The rest is then a matter of ordinary editing, not deletion and so, for purposes of this discussion, we just keep the existing page for further work per WP:ATD. Andrew🐉(talk) 20:57, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Nick Fury per WP:ATD. The topics are the same but we should strive to WP:PRESERVE information and the edit history. Archrogue (talk) 00:05, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep if the article is considered to be a list article of characters and restructured per WP:LISTN. If consensus is that none of the alternate versions are considered notable for inclusion in a split from the main article, per WP:PRESERVE and WP:ATD merge them back into the main Nick Fury article. Haleth (talk) 08:13, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as mentioned by the last few commenters. There's a WP:CONTENTFORK issue. Which ties into whether the secondary sources really distinguish this from the main topic for a second separate notable topic that isn't just WP:PLOT info. But we should make an effort to bridge the gap with people who care about the WP:ATD/WP:PRESERVE argument. Strive for WP:CONSENSUS and make Wikipedia less of a WP:BATTLEGROUND. Shooterwalker (talk) 01:08, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- It's already been established that the sources distinguish this from the main topic. There are many sources that are only devoted to Fury's appearances in other media. The closer should take note that nobody has given a strong argument for a merger, per WP:NOTAVOTE. Dark knight 2149 06:00, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Victor Carlström is defenitly notable, he has media coverage in all leading U.S and UK news outlets, see here link https://www.victorcarlstrom.com/pressandmedia/ over 10 articles in tier 2 independent newsoutlets last 3 months. Swedish media supress the story since Victor Carlström are in court against Sweden, and their largest banks since December 2019 over 4.2 billion USD. Victor Carlströms courtcase is one of the largest court cases in United States this year, see link https://www.poandpo.com/news/swedish-government-drafts-team-of-international-law-firms-to-defend-42bn-corruption-lawsuit/ Victor Carlströms defendants try to supress all coverage visible in Sweden including delete this Wikiepdia page as a part of their suppresion process. The person moved this page for deletion is Swedish and Turkish and not independent to Victor Carlström since people Victor Carlström sue in court are Swedish and Turkish. This is not a coincidence, this is a coordinate attack to supress Victor Carlström. Very obvious the whole delete process is a supress attack from the people Victor Carlström are in court against, just look at all the media coverage this year in the link, over 30 independent articles total only this year (Not including press release). You all destroy creditbility of Wikiepdia when you supress major international news like this. See link with all articles as proof https://www.victorcarlstrom.com/pressandmedia/ shame on you by try to delete Victor Carlströms page with false accusations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swan1111 (talk • contribs) 04:28, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have now gone over almost 30 independent news articles about Victor Carlström only this year in U.K, US, and other European News outlets (No press releases), most of them are tier 2 new outlets and reporters claim sources from court documents and lawyers from both sides. Also, see his website www.victorcarlstrom.com where over 300 pages of court documents are available. These documents describe money laundering and other financial fraud in detail. So don't really understand whats your point is by try to delete this Wikipedia page, since every single word in Victor Carlströms Wikipedia page is correct. Do you claim the case does not exist, and all these massive lawyer firms work with a fantasy case and the court in Southern District Of New York don't have the case? Your allegations are very diffuse. It is very obvious this is a coordinated attack to suppress Victor Carlström, only because this Wikipedia page is visible in Sweden. If you look at the date and time you all write for deletion it is impossible you have had time to read about the case, so it's very obvious this is a coordinated suppression attack where someone most likely pays you to have Victor Carlströms Wikipedia page deleted. I have sent this case to as many administrators as I could find to have them stop this suppression attack. Paid attacks like these destroy credibility for all Wikipedia and for all usernames working honestly and say no to do things for money. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swan1111 (talk • contribs) 09:28, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here I have summery 9 tier 2 new outlets in US and U.K about Victor Carlström last 3 months, all from independent sources and NO press releases. Then one appearance in National US television NBC Show Crime Tuesday and National US radio show Overnight America. The only Swedish person with more media coverage in the U.S and U.K last 3 months is Zlatan Ibrahimovic then Victor Carlström is number two. Victor Carlström also has a Google Panel for a notable person. As I said your coordinated suppression attack to delete Victor Carlström Wikipedia page will not work since I informed many Wikipedia administrators looking into this attack right now.

Here is top 9 tier 2 news stories about Victor Carlström last 3 months also I link one US national TV appearance and one US national Radio appearance last months there is much more.

I found 12 sources and 6 independent media coverage. Don't found any pod, only National TV NBC LX and 25 minutes appearance in the radio show Overnight America. Plus Google panel for a notable person. Plus 300 court documents with singed perjury document. Victor Carlström meets all guidelines for "(WP:GNG|our notability guidelines" Username Pjarkur is a part of the coorinated suppression attack, very obvious. User Liz→ The former Wikipedia which was deleted was in May since then you have 26 independent news articles where 22 are in tier 2 news outlets so you can't compare then and now. it's a completely new case now, the only similarity is same people behind the suppression attack in May and now. People linked to defendant Sweden and Turkey, both countries block almost all media coverage about the case. U.S and U.K have regular media coverage about the case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swan1111 (talk • contribs) 22:35, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just find media coverage with Victor Carlström in international tier 1 news outlets, such as Fortune, Reuters, U.S News and World Report, and International Business Times, this is some of the world's most respected news outlets. This proof only Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the only Swedish person with more international media coverage this year. Since only Zlatan and Victor Carlström are the only Swedish people published in international tier 1 news outlets. No other Swedish people exist in international tier 1 news outlets this year. This defenitly make VIctor Carlström to meet all guidelines for "(WP:GNG|our notability guidelines."

Collapsing rambling and blatant personal attacks. Blablubbs|talk 14:06, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Have triple checked and no evidence found for black hat SEO from Victor Carlström. That is a false claim by Praxidicae in his paid suppression attack against Victor Carlström. The only black hat SEO is used by Sweden in their effort to hide published articles from Swedish readers. Again I believe this is the Wikipedia page with the most references consider the very short Wikipedia page, 35 references for 13 sentence text most definitely a record so far. Also, I'm up in 14 different sources now in media coverage in tier 1,2 and 3 news outlets. And Victor Carlström defenitly meets all critera in "WP:GNG| notability guidelines"

The ongoing paid suppression attack against whistleblower Victor Carlström is a strike against the credibility of the whole Wikipedia. Victor Carlström Wikipedia page I believe is the Wikipedia page with the most reference consider the very short Wikipedia page, 35 different tier 1, 2, and 3 news outlets for a couple of sentences and still, they try to delete it. Action is taken against these usernames to have them deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swan1111 (talk • contribs) 04:01, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a unwarranted claim it is fact. Editors please take action and block Praxidicae for double-dipping by taking money from someone to suppress whistleblower VIctor Carlström. Extremely obvious if you look at facts and it destroys credibility for the whole Wikipedia, these usernames must be blocked. Swan1111 (talk) 09:59, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thjarkur, DoubleGrazing and Praxidicae you try to suppress and have me blocked now? Because your paid suppression attack our on the way to fail and you will not receive the final payment if Victor Carlströms Wikipedia is not deleted? I working hard to have you blocked for this paid suppression attack just so you know.

'Soon Victor Carlströms Wikipedia page will have one reference on each word if this continues. 'Now it's 35 references for 12 sentences'''' it's the worse example I ever have seen. And Wikipedia would not exist if this scrutiny was applied to other Wikipedia pages, that's why I claim you destroy the credibility of the whole Wikipedia and you must be blocked.Swan1111 (talk) 11:15, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I thought this looked familiar even though the name did not ring any bells (I am pretty clueless when it comes to celebrities in Sweden, so me not recognising the name is not a point against notability in itself), but then I realised that I did a pretty thorough search back in June when we had the previous AfD. (Yes, I had forgotten the name since then.) He was clearly not notable then as all the press coverage was churnalism, primary sources, or trivial mentions, and looking through the sources published since, there isn't a shred of notability there: again, it is primary, based on press releases, promotional, and/or trivial. Not one single mention in DN, or even in Expressen which is a pretty useless source, but it does tend to pick up the gossip. "Famous on Flashback" is one of the more amusing claims to notability I've heard! --bonadea contributions talk 15:53, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Do Not Delete I consider these page meet all criteria for WP:GNG. I will clarify. "Significant coverage" Check, person, exist in Fortune, Reuters, US News & World Report, International Business Times, The European Financial Review, Business Matters, Nation Editions, The Buzz Paper, Luxury Launches, Talk Business, US television NBC LX and Radio show Overnight America and many more, none of these are press releases and no connection to Carlström.

"Reliable" Check, many independent articles in The European Financial Review and Business Matters two very reliable news sources. Also, coverage in Nation Editions is reliable. Then as a financial expert in Fortune, Reuters, US News & World Report, and International Bussines Times all very reliable news sources.

~~"Independent of the subject" Check, Can't see any connection with the once I just mention to Carlström. We can't assume we need facts.~~

~~Note: WP:GNG does not require specific names of media coverage or a specific number of sources. Also, understandable Swedish media cover up the story if you look at the sensitivity of the case.~~

Finally, Calrström is the first person from North Europe with asylum in United States, and if you look at the magnitude of his lawsuit and the consequences of the potential outcome of the lawsuit, together with all media coverage and different blogs, forums, for me it's no question he meets all criteria for WP:GNG. I understand his case is controversial and challenges the narrative for many people but we need to look at the facts, and put the personal opinion aside. Also, I think some goes to hard with assumptions, in this case, no name mention.Raiderstorm (talk) 06:15, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Solution' To move forward and save the page, I suggest shorter the page and only mention his lawsuit, asylum in the United States, and his investment firm Vinacossa Enterprises. Then it's backed up by multiply media coverage and sources to meet all criteria in WP:GNG. Also, person exists on a regular basis in different media coverage and is a hot topic on the web so delete the page is not considered correct. And please for all well-being save the assumptions and present facts if you have claims, thanks.Raiderstorm (talk) 06:59, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hoax? In any case not notable. The lead image was made yesterday, the coat of arms is for "Amhengart" (which doesn't seem to be a notable or actual noble family), the name "Heyngarten" is virtually unknown, sources are for people with names vaguely resembling Heyngarten, Huenergardt, ...

Delete - I can't say for sure if this is a blatant hoax or just a non-notable family (Þjarkur's observation strongly suggests the former) but deletion is prescribed either way. I went through a few of the sources and can't add anything to Fram's review; at least one is written by a member of the family. I did the usual search under both "Heyngarten" and "Huenergardt", and in both cases (disregarding Wikipedia mirrors) a number of individuals came up but no evidence that any share a common lineage, nor that the family name itself is notable in any way.

Delete, WP:SNOW, and WP:SALT.

Delete as a hoax. The image of "Velten and Hans" is actually from a book of traditional folk costumes by Albert Kretschmer, Here's the original image. Two of the coats of arms appear to have literally been made in MS Paint [30] [31]. The editor uploaded a slightly less digitally manipulated version of the "painting" here which looks like it's been through an anaglyph filter and had a hat photoshopped on. Combined with the members of this house not appearing in historical records where they should as noted by other editors above I can only come to the conclusion that this is a hoax. 192.76.8.81 (talk) 22:08, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. ru:Стефан (Stephan, alleged birthplace of Margaret Brauer) is a very common personal name, but Russian WP does not list any places with that name. There is no place in Russian WP called either ru:Черваковка or ru:Церваковка (Cservakovka, alleged birthplace of Sophia Darlinger). "Konrad was the son of Johan Adam Huhnergarth (1771-abt. 1851) and Anna Groh of Russia, a Musketeer involved in the Seven Years' War"; a precocious feat, as the Seven Years' War took place 1756-1763. "Pastor Johann Hindergarten circa (1580-1660) [...] most likely migrated to Hesse area from Saxony due to the Protestant reformation" is difficult to explain, because both the Landgraviate of Hesse and Electoral Saxony had been Protestant since the 1520s; see List of states by the date of adoption of the Reformation. However, the Landgrave of Hesse converted from Lutheranism to Calvinism in 1604 (see Calvinism in Germany), and that could provide an explanation; although it is not supported by the second sentence of the article, "The House of Huenergardt were mainly Protestant Lutheran." As for the places in Hesse - de:Helpershain is now part of Ulrichstein; Allendorff auf dem Lumme ("on the Lumme") is difficult to locate, because there is no geographical feature called de:Lumme, and Allendorf(f) could easily be a typo for Altendorf; Alsfeld exists; Buedigen could be a typo for Buedingen, also in Hesse; de:Bobenhausen II is now part of Ulrichstein; and de:Stumpertenrod exists. Hin der Garten should be hin dem Garten (more properly dem Garten hin, but tinkering with the wording is not uncommon in canting arms). The mantling on the coat of arms is impressive and Germanic, but the escutcheon just looks unstylish and wrong. The loss of the noble particle von from the name at an undetermined date is unusual; it was eagerly striven after, inherited, and jealously preserved. Although the places in Hesse add an "air of verisimilitude" to the narrative, this evidence combined with that presented above by other editors leads me to conclude that this article is at best a misreading of sources, most likely originating off-wiki.

Keep. I don't think every book gets a Wall Street Journal video[34]. NPOV requires cleanup, not deletion. Other sources are less extremely obvious, but being included in lists like this one from Traders Magazine is a clear indication of notability (assuming this isn't some paid advert thing, but it doesn't look like it). A column in Forbes may not be a RS, but still, most people and books don't get this kind of recognition[35]. And then there are the regular sources, like this review in the Jackson Sun. It is called a "classic book" by the UK Spectator, which publishes an excerpt[36]. It is called a "much-lauded" book by Reason. Review in FEE and in Kirkus. Other reviews by RRPA and a very lengthy one in Cato. Interview about the book with the Hoover Institution. Fram (talk) 08:31, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's his most notable, most famous book! It's had 5 editions! just because the article had only just been created doesn't call for it's deletion. the article specifically includes a criticism section too so I don't think it can be called a violation of NPOV. If and article was going to be written on a book by thomas sowell, this one should be. As can be seen in an archived talk page discussion, people have questioned why this wasn't done sooner. This article is just a beginning, I created it only a few days ago. It really should stay.

comment I know it technically passes NBOOK as written--so does every published textbook, for they all get reviewed--and Kirkus will review essentially anything. The question is the total failure of NPOV, which is a much more basic principle that the guideline on notability. --is this a textbook on economics, or a textbook on free market economics? What do the reviews actually say in that respect? Is there any actual information here that can't be justified by a line in his article? And if it's his most famous book, what justifies the articles on his other books.?

- You say half of the nomination statement does not apply here. O... Kay then... Well, you are welcome to contribute additional direct quotes by clicking the links to the reviews and adding. You are also welcome to rewrite the parts you don't believe are neutral or explain what kind of lens the author has regarding these issues... clean it up if you believe it needs cleaning up; nominate the other articles if you like. All of that is neither here nor there in a deletion discussion. Nominating a book that for notability when you know it "technically passes NBOOK" (and no, most textbooks do not, and Kirkus's paid reviewers cannot review "essentially anything"--far from it and they aren't Amazon)-- What on earth is going on?? Just... I don't know... maybe do the work? DiamondRemley39 (talk) 08:38, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- 99% of the textbooks don't get the reviews this one gets. Yes, they may get a Kirkus review, perhaps, but not the other ones. As for NPOV, that's not a reason to delete this, that's a reason for cleanup. Remove all offending material, keep the neutral stuff. But perhaps first explain, with some examples, what makes this such a terrible NPOV violation that it warrants not pruning, not rewriting, but annihilation? Because I don't see it, and no one else seems too bothered by it either.
- "All textbooks get reviewed", but most don't get a 7-page long review in Cato Journal, do they? Foundation for Economic Education or Reason (magazine) are reliable sources (yes, they have a certain slant, but a book that only gets reviewed in e.g. left-wing or right-wing sources is still a notable book, and the POV of the book or the sources wouldn't be a reason to delete the article). The Spectator doesn't publish excerpts of just any textbook either. I don't get your insistence that this article should be deleted or only technically passes NBOOK: what more would you expect?

Keep. Somehow I thought you are a librarian, User:DGG, how could you propose this for deletion? It clearly passes WP:NBOOK, neutrality problems are no reason for deleting stuff, I don't see issues warranting a WP:TNT approach here.

I'm withdrawing this as hopeless. Back to 2006 I guess ,when WP was a playground for this sort of advocacy. Or if it's gotten better, I hope someone will fix the NPOV. DGG ( talk ) 06:04, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

` DGG I don't really understand your claim that this is advocacy? what cause is it advocating? Could you be more specific in the claim that there is a breach of NPOV? Which parts are not neutral? The article follows sources and is written in a factual manner. There is also criticism included on it.

Keep and rewrite. I see the concerns about WP:NPOV but it seems to be something that could be fixed with some clean-up without deleting the entire article. Archrogue (talk) 00:40, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It ignores the fact the author is devoted to advocacy of a particular economic position. This would be critical to the judgement of the book, and confirmed by the Cato review. One of the aspects of promotionalism is hiding what some people might consider evidence of a very specific politico-economic orientation, DGG ( talk ) 18:59, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

So, your view is that this article "ignores" a subject that should be in it (namely, Sowells politico-economic orientation) and thus that is evidence of breaching of WP:NPOV. The absence of something is not evidence for something, it is simply an absence. It is written at the top of Sowell's biography page that "he writes from a conservative-libertarian perspective" - how hard would it be to add that in, if you insist on that - I personally think it would be rather repetitive to have it written here as well. Also, this wikipedia article doesnt advocate this point of view either, it simply states the facts about what subjects the book deals with. I would much prefer a simple stating of the facts about the book, rather than turn this into a debate page over whether people agree or disagree with his political orientation. If you think this article is advocating his political-economic persuasion, be specific - tell us which sentences you think do this and we can correct them together. (an argument for editing rather than deletion)

At this point we've had two claims that are pushing the case for deletion 1: "not notable" - that has been thoroughly disproved, and 2: "violates NPOV" - that can be remedied very easily with minor edits (assuming its a problem at all, which I dont think it is). DGG please join in the talk page discussion, I am keen to improve this article with you, rather than cast it into oblivion due to the rather vague accusation of NPOV.

Do not delete

@Umakant Bhalerao: Not a notable actress.....A Google search of her does not reveal much

I agree with you on this point Sir that the television actress is not a big notable celebrity and which is the reason why google search does reveal much. However, I would like to point out that the very first substantive hit on search button of google with the subject Aparna Mishra actress takes you to her!

@Umakant Bhalerao: does not satisfy any criterion from WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG

I strongly disagree with this argument of yours. It would be false to claim that the actress does not fulfill any criterion from WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG! The actress started her career in 2015 and within a period of 5 years, she has worked in 8 different shows and one music album, which in itself is an achievement as an actor/actress, it's not a judgement from a commoner like me, but I'm sure any filmaker, director, producer who are part of the Indian television Industry would agree to the same.

Secondly,

@Umakant Bhalerao: She has played small roles, mostly uncredited, in a number of television shows.

This argument is INVALID, because out of the 8 shows the subject has worked in, 4 shows which are Yeh Hai Aashiqui Siyappa Ishq Ka, Kaala Teeka, Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya were one of the most popular Hindi soap-operas of the particular time period during which it was broadcast. Next, Savdhaan India is the one of the most longest running Indian television series. Finally, the show of which the subject is currently part of Kumkum Bhagya is one among the top 3 shows according to latest barc ratings i.e. barc rating week 46 2020. So, it should be noted that majority of the shows in which the subject has worked in are popular shows. It is next to impossible task for any actor/actress to get a role only in a popular/credited television series.

Next, it should be noted that she has NOT ONLY PLAYED SUPPORTING AND RECURRING ROLES. In the popular series, Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya, she was the episodic lead Sahiba opposite Shagun Pandey and again another episodic lead Palak in Pyar Pehli Baar, which was not that popular but still it was the spin-off of the popular series Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya. It should also be noted that in one of the most popular longest-running Indian series, Savdhaan India, she played the titular role. A Titular role is considered as important as the lead role in television soap-operas.

Finally, though playing a supporting role in Kumkum Bhagya, the subject, actress Aparna Mishra is often found in discussion in the articles of Tellychakkar, Pinkvilla, Bollywoodtimes. These sources are considered unreliable by Wikipedia, but a large number of articles about Indian televison series, actors and actresses use them as their main references. Nevertheless, there are also discussions about the subject in certain articles of Kumkum Bhagya in Times of India. Even earlier in 2016, she was found in discussions in several unreliable resources of Wikipedia when she got the lead role of Sahiba in Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya and was a part of Kaala Teeka.

Thus, all these arguments mostly nullify the arguments put down by Umakant Bhalerao to delete the article on the subject Aparna Mishra.

However, I leave the decision to experienced editors and admins of Wikipedia and will have no issues if the final decision is to delete the article Aparna Mishra

--Aleyamma38 (talk) 10:00, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Um, if "Savdhaan India" means "Attention India", how could Mishra play the "Titular role"? A titular role would be Prabhas as Baahubali in Baahubali: The Beginning. You see, he played a character whose name was in the title. Titular = tit(le)+ular. Did Mishra play a character named Attention India? No, probably not. You also seem to be misunderstand Umakant's comment. "She has played small roles, mostly uncredited, in a number of television shows." For some reason you incorrectly think this means that the show was minor, when what they are saying is that the roles were minor. When you declare someone's argument as invalid, you should probably understand what their argument is saying. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:34, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb: if "Savdhaan India" means "Attention India", how could Mishra play the "Titular role"?... Did Mishra play a character named Attention India? No, probably not.

Even if I do not try to hide my boldface. You are unable to hide your pride with your mocking tone. But it's good to have pride as a wikipedian admin.

So as a part of my explanation, Savadhaan India is one of the longest running Indian television series consisting of episodics. I guess being an admin , you would probably know what an episodic means?

So in this series of episodics, Savdhaan India, in Season 4 Episode 19, titled Who Killed Munni?, Mishra played the role of Munni. Now, can you see what I meant by saying Mishra has played a titular role?

--Aleyamma38 (talk) 18:55, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb: For some reason you incorrectly think this means that the show was minor, when what they are saying is that the roles were minor. When you declare someone's argument as invalid, you should probably understand what their argument is saying

Of course Sir, I very well understood what their argument, but for sure you are misinterpreting my argument. I may not be an experienced editor, but I'm neither a fool too. Only for countering the argument that her roles are minor, I have given the point of Mishra playing two lead roles and one titular role.

Next I have also pointed out the notability of her shows to point out to the notability of her work. So please, it would be appreciated if my arguments are not misinterpreted here.-Thank you

--Aleyamma38 (talk) 19:00, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely no issues with the admins' decision

I honestly have no issues if the final decision is to delete this wikipedia article. Please delete it if the experienced editors and admins of wikipedia feel it should be deleted.

So, there will no more arguments from my side in defense for not deleting the article Aparna Mishra.

-Thank you

@Aleyamma38: Please properly indent your replies so that it is clear what comments you are responding to. I have fixed this for you.

...the very first substantive hit on search button of google with the subject Aparna Mishra actress takes you to her! This doesn't mean anything to the community. Google hits do not suggest notability. Per our General Notability Guideline, a subject is potentially notable when they receive significant coverage (in-depth writing) in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, or if the subject meets the qualifications of WP:NACTOR.
...Mishra is often found in discussion in the articles of Tellychakkar, Pinkvilla, Bollywoodtimes. These sources are considered unreliable by Wikipedia, but a large number of articles about Indian televison series, actors and actresses use them as their main references. As you were previously told in the deletion discussion about Zeeshan Khan, the fact that other editors have relied on poor sources in other articles doesn't mean that you get to rely on those poor sources in defense of this article's existence.
...there are also discussions about the subject in certain articles of Kumkum Bhagya in Times of India. You provided no evidence of this, but it is also doubtful that she received anything other than a passing mention. I can only find fluff like this and this. Passing mentions.
...within a period of 5 years, she has worked in 8 different shows and one music album, Everybody has to work. That doesn't make them deserving of an encyclopedia article.
Next I have also pointed out the notability of her shows to point out to the notability of her work. The popularity of a television series doesn't by default make the subject more notable, so it's unclear what relevance this has here. Someone playing a background character on the most popular series in the world doesn't mean they should have an encyclopedia article.
...I have given the point of Mishra playing two lead roles and one titular role. You have not demonstrated that she was the lead role in multiple series, you demonstrated that she was a guest star in single episodes of a non-serialised show. And your interpretation of what a titular role is, is based on a selective interpretation inconsistent with what most people would consider a titular role to be. Someone playing a character in one episode of a television series, where the character's name appears in the title of the episode, does not qualify as a "titular role". That just makes them a guest star. Someone appearing as a guest star in one episode does not mean that they had a major role in that series. And no, a guest star in an episodic show is not equivalent to someone being the lead in a soap opera or other serial. If you want clarification on what constitutes a lead role or a titular role as it pertains to demonstrating notability, feel free to ask at WikiProject Television.

Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:03, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb: Please properly indent your replies so that it is clear what comments you are responding to. I have fixed this for you.

First of all my extreme apologies for that and thanks a lot Sir for helping me out with it.

@Cyphoidbomb: You have not demonstrated that she was the lead role in multiple series, you demonstrated that she was a guest star in single episodes of a non-serialised show

Sir, for making your part clear, you are rather twisting and turning my arguments. I had put my arguments for that earlier but you had turned blind to for whatever reason, but now I'm putting them once again in BOLD below; Next, it should be noted that she has NOT ONLY PLAYED SUPPORTING AND RECURRING ROLES. In the popular series, Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya, she was the episodic lead Sahiba opposite Shagun Pandey and again another episodic lead Palak in Pyar Pehli Baar, which was not that popular but still it was the spin-off of the popular series Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya. The evidence for these are already given by me in the references of the article of the subject which are [37] and [38]

Someone appearing as a guest star in one episode does not mean that they had a major role in that series. And no, a guest star in an episodic show is not equivalent to someone being the lead in a soap opera or other serial. If you want clarification on what constitutes a lead role or a titular role as it pertains to demonstrating notability, feel free to ask at WikiProject Television.

Sir, I need not ask at WikiProject Television, but you need to CHECK IT OUT BETTER about the series and her role. Of course, the subject had a major role in the series. The way YOU ARE MISINTERPRETING, my argument makes it doubtful that you want to delete this article at any cost! If you have doubts then please check with the series producers, who gives roles for every episodics. And even after that you have doubts, then if you know Hindi, please do watch that particular episode i.e. Savdhaan India Season 4 Episode 19, don't worry of finding it because I have given the reference for it in her article Aparna Mishra [39]. If you do not understand Hindi, then the website Hotstar does provide the option of subtitles. And, leave about Wikipedian editors like you and me, any normal television viewer, would agree that Mishra was not a guest star in the series.

Everybody has to work. That doesn't make them deserving of an encyclopedia article.

My apologies that I'm mentioning this once again, but since you have raised it. In that way, why do the UNREFERENCED AND UNEDITED ARTICLES deserve AN ENCYCLOPEDIA?

As you were previously told in the deletion discussion about Zeeshan Khan, the fact that other editors have relied on poor sources in other articles doesn't mean that you get to rely on those poor sources in defense of this article's existence.

Of course, I will not from now on wards, because I understood that It's worthless! for me, but worthy, for certain others.

You provided no evidence of this, but it is also doubtful that she received anything other than a passing mention. I can only find fluff like this and this. Passing mentions.

My extreme apologies that I forgot to provide the evidence at that time, but yes these were the articles that I was talking about. As you have pointed out Sir, you are right that she just received passing mentions. But, even more than that, it should be noted that the show Kumkum Bhagya gives her role for maybe once or twice a week and her role is something completely unimportant in the series. But even after that, if the subject has gained atleast passing mentions, is indeed a big deal as a television actress. This is not just my judgement, but yes a judgment of any commoner from Indian television industry.

This doesn't mean anything to the community. Google hits do not suggest notability. Per our General Notability Guideline, a subject is potentially notable when they receive significant coverage (in-depth writing) in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, or if the subject meets the qualifications of WP:NACTOR.

I agree with you, regarding the notability Sir, but please note carefully that I had not mentioned it for showing notability of Mishra but I had given it as a counter argument for Umakant Bhalerao's argument: A Google search of her does not reveal much

@Cyphoidbomb: Most important of all, I did say this several times earlier and even now I am saying that I have no issues with the deletion of this article Aparna Mishra, if that is going to be final decision of the experienced editors and admins of Wikipedia.

Rocking K, California[edit]

This one was more of a pain to search than one might have guessed, because there is a "Rocking K Foods" in San Diego which generates lots of false hits, and there may be another place in the state as well. But from what I can determine, this was originally, as you might expect, the Rocking K Ranch, and it shows up as such in some 1950s Sat. Evening Post ads. Apparently it was being run as a resort. In the early-mid-1990s it was developed into the neighborhood that can be seen today, so that there is this isolated rectangle of green to the west outside Bishop with a very motley collection of houses in it. Even then I can't find any real reference to it as a neighborhood or anything past some legal issues in its development. Mangoe (talk) 03:58, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is an unreleased film, which is not notable as per the future film guidelines. Naïve Google search shows publicity information about the movie with release dates of both 2020 and 2021, which is not encouraging because that means it may be in development limbo. Unreleased films are only notable if production itself is notable, and this article says nothing about production. Robert McClenon (talk) 09:29, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

2007 Las Vegas Atlantic Grand Prix[edit]

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

This individual race report of this formerly second-tier series to CART/Champ Car has not meet the notability standards for motor racing. Nothing has been established to determine its long-term notability. MWright96 (talk) 09:22, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Can reliable sources be found which which give the event coverage outside of the context of the event it was supporting? If so, it can be considered notable enough to warrant an article provided someone can find the time to turn the article into something which reasonably reflects those sources. If they only give it coverage in the context of the event it was supporting then perhaps its contents should be merged into the article of that event. Edit: Checking Google the only article I seem to be able to find is one which is primarily about James Hinchcliffe and only mentions the race in passing. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 04:27, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @HumanBodyPiloter5: Through research in databases, it seems that the only coverage is passing coverage or just mentioning the results of the race. Furthermore, accessing the Champ Car Atlantic website via archive.org, many of the links for the Las Vegas race have returned no archive links for the articles themselves.

Cognitive Neuroscience Society[edit]

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

Cognitive Neuroscience Society does not seem almost at all notable. The journal itself (Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience) does not seem to be related since the official website says "Published by the MIT Press and the Cognitive Neuroscience Institute" which does not seem to be the same as Cognitive Neuroscience Society. Google doesn't return almost anything except for a facebook page with 25k followers. In light of this, it seems this article does not meet WP:NOTE and I can't find any relevant news sources to back up the notability of this page. Therefore, I propose a deletion.

Comment. I'll provide a more substantive comment later but the nom appears to be correct that the joural in question is not published by this society. There is a blog post at the society's webpage about the history of the journal[40], which notes that the first editor-in-chief was Michael Gazzaniga, a founder of the society. But that appears to have been the extent of the connection. I have removed the sentence about the journal from the article. Nsk92 (talk) 18:05, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This society may not be particularly large (seems to be about 2K+ members) but it gets a reasonable amount of coverage in the newsmedia, as far as academic societies go. There are examples of news articles covering the society itself, specifically, such as this article about the CNS 2018 annual meeting in Boston. Here is an editorial blog post from the Scientific American about the 2012 annual meeting of the CNS. More typical are articles that discuss some of the society's actovities, in various degrees of detail. Recent examples include Science [41] and Nature [42], where responses of scientific societies to the COVID-19 pandemic are discussed. The CNS gets a few paragraphs in each. Most news stories concern various studies presented at CNS meetings. That's still nontrivial coverage, and there's a lot of it over 600+ GNews hits. Here are some samples at NYT [43][44][45]. Looking at the CNS governing board, one can see right away that the organization is legit: Marie Banich has h-index 77[46]], Roberto Cabeza has h-index 97 [47], Marta Kutas has h-index 110 [48], and so on. Overall passes WP:GNG and WP:ORG. Nsk92 (talk) 18:37, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable independent sources cover that incident to the exclusion of anything more substantive, making this a BLP subject to WP:BIO1E. gobonobo ⁺ ^c 07:35, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Journalist who is mentioned in reliable sources and writes for multiple reliable sources. Nomination for deletion is bizarre. Are people concerned about disk space? This feels like a sock puppet move tbh...
Comment: The subject of the article is linking to this deletion discussion from her social media here. If new editors and fans of the Herzog are coming from off-site canvassing please be aware this isn't a majority vote.

Comment: I won't write this in "vote-like" style as I have at least a minor "conflict of interest" being a follower of her/Jesse's podcast who likes it, so I'm not an objective observer. But I think even if I didn't I'd be at least mildly on the side of keeping because I think the deletionism of this site is excessive; we're not a paper document with limited space, so why not cover even mildly notable things/people, if it can be done in neutral point of view? *Dan T.* (talk) 16:21, 15 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep for passing WP:AUTHOR with flying colors. The specific criteria is "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews". A movie (by Disney and starring Ron Howard) based on one of his books and a television series too shows that Corbin is anything but run-of-the mill. --DiamondRemley39 (talk) 11:47, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Clear pass of the criterion for an author; in addition to the film and television series, there are multiple reviews cited for his novels in the article. It also mentions that his books won unspecified awards. The first source is an extensive encyclopedia article that could easily be used to improve the article greatly. Espresso Addict (talk) 14:26, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep - There is ample wide coverage of the subject's books, most of which have been reviewed by Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews. At least two of his books were released by Simon & Schuster, one of the top 5 traditional publishing houses in the U.S. This article more than meets WP:GNG and easily passes WP:AUTHOR. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 05:13, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per DiamondRemley39 and AuthorAuthor. One of his novels, Smoke, became a classic 1970 TV movie with a major star. According to WorldCat, Smoke is in 267 libraries; Deadline is in 21, A Dog Worth Stealing is in 129, and The day Willie wasn't is in 45. The pup with the up-and-down tail was featured in Weekly Reader, which means millions of kids read it, and it remains in 100 libraries.

The award was mentioned already in 5+ other articles on here, so that seems pretty notable to me. I will add some more sources. --Shikeishu (talk) 14:34, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'll look through the additional sources, but generally, a mere mention of a topic in a reliable source does not make that topic notable. The topic needs to be featured in a reliable source which is independent of the organisation. See WP:NCORP

Delete. Deputy head of a local government at the county level is not an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL — at that level of significance, the notability test requires reliably sourced evidence of his importance, not just cursory verification of his existence. And no, having subsequently been the founder and chairman of a non-notable organization isn't a notability booster either. I can't read Latvian or access 80-year-old Latvian sources, so I'm perfectly willing to reconsider this if somebody can demonstrate that he was actually more notable than this article indicates — but the lack of an article about him on the Latvian Wikipedia suggests I shouldn't hold my breath.

Participating in a Chess Olympiad is not sufficient for WP:NCHESS unless you or your team get a medal - and the only coverage I can find of Vukadinov in reliable sources is routine coverage of his Olympiad appearance which just mentions the team's performance (not sufficient for WP:GNG/WP:NBIO).

Keep The article dedicated to Vukadinov's memory in En Passant, June 2003, pp. 21–34 (original link is down; mirror) provides enough material for a short article. It notes that Vukadinov was ranked as high as 8th in Canada in the 1970s, and had US and Canadian ratings above 2400, which is significantly more than the minimum 2200 requirement for a national master in those countries. Ten references to Milan Vukadinov in the Google-digitized Windsor Star: most are trivial but the article on December 15, 1980 is more substantial. Canadian Serbs: A History of Their Social and Cultural Traditions (1856-2002), p. 181 notes four more sources dated 1975–1981 from The Times (Detroit), The London Free Press, a Serbian newspaper in Toronto, and the magazine Michigan Chess.

Weak Delete – While I commend User:Hack's additions, the most significant depth articles are both from Chris Dutton of the The Canberra Times, and both are about the surprise that he found success in the US after he did not in Australia ("Canberra kids going to America for... rugby?" and " "Forgotten Canberra junior..."). The rest are WP:ROUTINE transaction coverage listing the clubs he has been a member of without depth or mentions in simple match recaps. He gets the most mentions as in a WP:PRIMARY coverage in a weekly award segment. Yosemiter (talk) 23:03, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - the Canberra Times mentions are sufficient independent sources to scrape over the line for notability. Deus et lex (talk) 10:20, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Deus et lex: Per WP:GNG: Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability. I do agree that subject is very borderline though, and much better than many of the other MLR players currently up for deletion. Yosemiter (talk) 17:28, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Duffbeerforme, please can you explain what the 'valid alternatives' would be, the player does not pass notability guidelines for rugby players at WP:NRU and whether or not he passes general notability guidelines at WP:GNG is certainly up for debate.

Is a redirect really suitable here, the player has only played a few games for NOLA Gold, and the other two are just list pages, its not as if he won player of the season or any awards in a that season either. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 13:53, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a suitable redirect topic per WP:XY. Yosemiter (talk) 14:13, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ since subject comfortably passes criterion #1 of WP:NRU, which demands that the rugby union player must have played for a "high performance Union" at any time, while a footnote lists the countries whose unions are included in that category, amongst which is the U.S. Subject is a squad member of and has appeared playing for the New Orleans Gold who compete in the U.S. Major League Rugby. End of story. -The Gnome (talk) 19:09, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Gnome, This is incorrect, High Performance Union's relate to national teams not club sides. The player hasn't represented any international side, henceforth #1 is irrelevant. The issue is over #2 which relates to professional rugby competition (which New Orleans Gold plays in Major League Rugby). Major League Rugby isn't listed here, therefore the player doesn't qualify for WP:NRU. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 19:32, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the SMH article actually is the best coverage I've seen of any US based rugby player, but it's not enough to make him notable - it's just a feature article on a curiosity, that an Aussie could be playing rugby in the US. None of the other coverage is significant, which is in line with our consistent showing that Major League Rugby does not get enough secondary independent reliable coverage to have articles on all of its players, and he's done nothing else that has earned GNG-qualifying coverage.

Weak Delete – This player actually does have one pretty good WP:GNG source Walker: For NOLA Gold's Jojo Tikoisuva, the game of rugby helped him beat the game of life in The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate. However, everything else is transaction WP:ROUTINE coverage with a basic synopsis listing clubs he has played with lacking depth or WP:RS. The player has made some lower tier national team appearances, if he is on a team that ever makes it to a larger stage, then the player may receive some significant coverage, but that would be WP:TOOSOON right now. Yosemiter (talk) 21:15, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eggishorn: While that source is the reason I put "weak" in my !vote, WP:42 does explicitly state We need multiple sources that discuss the topic directly and in detail.

@Yosemiter:, remember that WP:42 is just a handy essay. Its usage of "significant" is only a suggestion and not definitive. In this particular case, a major metropolitan daily devoting >700 words to a profile of a player in a non-major sport is ...more than a trivial mention by any reasonable interpretation. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 04:39, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eggishorn: Agreed that the single source is significant depth of coverage, but even WP:GNG, which is guideline and not an essay, says multiple sources are generally expected. If the one single independent RS source of good depth convinces you this subject meets GNG, then I do not think anything I would argue here would change your mind. It is not like I think this subject fails GNG with flying colors, just that it is on the lower side of the subjective line since it lacks the multiple part. Yosemiter (talk) 06:20, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WHich in part is why stand alone articles are useful. All this content is verifiable. He has been covered in the press. Original research is not required to build this page.

Redirect to one of the articles duffbeerforme has suggested - he is spot on. Rugbyfan's claim that an article should not exist does not remove the requirement to consider alternatives to deletion if there is insufficient notability. Deus et lex (talk) 09:58, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Deus et lex, as has been stated by myself and Yosemiter, redirects aren't suitable here due to WP:XY. There are no suitable redirects for this player as if in the very small chance someone was to search for Jake Turnbull, they may be looking for many different things. There is no stand out club from his career or season in which he won awards. Just because he is linked on the aforementioned pages does not mean there is a suitable redirect there. A more detailed discussion on this was held at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dylan Taikato-Simpson. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 10:26, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree. That policy does not stop a suitable redirect from being found and duffbeerforme has found several. You're just opposed to anything that would thwart your proposal to delete this article. Deus et lex (talk) 10:39, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Deus et lex, Let's go through the suggested redirects then. 2016 Denver Stampede season (1 season American pro league, link is to him being signed and in the squad, not really a suitable redirect), Old Glory DC (no longer linked to this page, guessing the link was to him in the squad, only made 5 appearances for them), Denver Stampede (Link is to him being in the squad, team no longer exists), 2016 PRO Rugby season (link is for him receiving a yellow card in one match, and joining the short-lived competition), 2018 Major League Rugby season (Link again to him receiving a yellow card in a game), List of 2019–20 Major League Rugby transfers (no longer linked to this page, guessing link was his transfer from one side to another).

Oppose Seems to me to meet WP:GNG, as the sources are “substantial coverage”, viz. articles about Reid and not brief mentions. Moonraker (talk) 06:49, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Don't believe any of the sources on the page or that I can find are 'substantial coverage', that are independent of the source/tournament. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 10:46, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moonraker: Please provide evidence of substantial coverage in multiple independent reliable sources per the requirements of WP:GNG. Making claims of WP:SOURCESEXIST needs to be supported in the AfD. Minimal transactional coverage in WP:ROUTINE sources are not typically considered to meet WP:GNG. Of the five sources currently listed: #1 is a mention in a list (not substantial), #2 is a routine transaction report with two paragraphs about the teams he has played for (and is on USA-specific rubgy site, run by and written by a single editor), #3 is primary, #4 is the same source as #2 (so it does not meet the multiple requirement) and half of it is a copy-n-paste from the primary press release as well as it being transaction coverage, and #5 (which seems to be a website that no longer exists, so I highly doubt it would meet WP:RS) is also transaction coverage. Essentially, the only thing verifiable in the current article about the subject is that they were a member of certain clubs, nothing substantial. Yosemiter (talk) 17:39, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yosemiter, the WP:GNG doesn’t say “multiple”, which is just as well, as the meaning would be debatable. It does use the plural “sources”, which seems to mean more than one, although hardly anyone seems to challenge notability if it comes from one major source. The word “typically” is vague, too. The question is simply whether there is significant coverage in reliable sources. If you are suggesting the sources here are not reliable, do please say more. Moonraker (talk) 21:02, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moonraker: From GNG: "Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected. Yes, GNG is purposely meant to be slightly vague, but there is typically a consensus. Wikipedia is rarely explicit in its guidelines, that is why they are guidelines and not policies. I am simply explaining what is normally expected in an AfD for WP:BLP. Yosemiter (talk) 21:05, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That’s fair enough, Yosemiter. What’s “generally expected” is clearly not essential, as made clear by “There is no fixed number of sources required...” I do not see any solid challenge to the reliability of the sources. You cannot dismiss a source because it is used twice, simply on the basis of a “multiple requirement” which is not there. Moonraker (talk) 21:12, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

None of the sources in the article though look to qualify it for WP:GNG, as stated by Yosemiter signing articles are just WP:ROUTINE and very often aren't independent. Having looked through them and done a google search I can find no sources that are secondary and reliable, and the coverage that is there is far and a way NOT significant. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 21:23, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moonraker: Moonraker: You cannot dismiss a source because it is used twice. From GNG (continued): "Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected...Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability. Yosemiter (talk) 21:33, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Moonraker: on a second note, I am fairly certain I did challenge the sources provided in my first comment. Doug Coil is the main editor of DJ Coil, and the rest are mostly his own family, which probably does not meet WP:RS per WP:CONTEXTMATTERS. He almost exclusively covers match results and transactions, which makes his page a good source for WP:V but not necessarily for WP:N. They do sometimes do player profiles, which would be more than ROUTINE, but I didn't see one here. I already talked about the other three listed sources: #1 mention, #3 primary, and #5 is the defunct site that was simply a copy-n-paste job of the primary press release as evidenced by the exact same statement in the DJCoil article. I have not otherwise done a WP:BEFORE, I am just pointing out the listed sources are probably not sufficient to meet WP:GNG. Yosemiter (talk) 23:56, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is my view as well Yosemiter, and hence why I have flagged large numbers of these articles for not qualifying for WP:GNG and WP:NRU, not just because they don't qualify for WP:NRU. Obviously all are on a case by case basis but I have been through the sources/searched for sources on all of them and the majority are from the same/similar sources as on this articfle. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 10:26, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Now that I have done a more thorough source search, I am still not seeing anything other than transaction reports for this Michael Reid. Searches turned up very little in relation to the MLR member, although he was a bit mixed in with another Michael Reid that was in charge of Ulster Rugby for many years. If someone else can find better sources than those currently provided or that I could find in my own searches, then I would reconsider. Yosemiter (talk) 15:01, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Duffbeerforme, please can you explain what the 'valid alternatives' would be, the player does not pass notability guidelines for rugby players at WP:NRU or general notability at WP:GNG. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 13:44, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Taikato-Simpson is mentioned in Old Glory DC, 2020 Major League Rugby season, List of 2019–20 Major League Rugby transfers. Pick the best target and redirect there. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:51, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Are any of those redirects really suitable though? He's played for multiple clubs for a short period of time making a small number of appearances at all of them. The other two are a list page and the season page where he didn't win any awards or scored most points/tries or similar. Not sure any are suitable. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 13:56, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Which in part is why stand alone articles are useful. All this content is verifiable. He has been covered in the press. Original research is not required to build this page. What seems to be a current push to delete suche verifiable content seems misguided. Why delete when you can cover in other ways. Played just one game? include in a list. Played for lots of teams? Redirect to a list for the most prominent team, mention the others. Pick the best alternative but no need to delete. duffbeerforme (talk) 14:01, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Duffbeerforme: WP:V does not equal WP:N. Redirects are only suitable if the subject is actually discussed or mentioned on that page. If there are multiple possible targets for redirection, then it is not suitable for redirect per WP:XY. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of stats or roster transactions, verifiable or not. The subject must have significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Yosemiter (talk) 14:11, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I never said WP:V equals WP:N. "The subject must have significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." (Tell yhat to the advocates of wp:prof.) To have a standalone article it is best to The subject must have significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. But the way you've said it seems to sufggest you think GNG overrides the SNGs. That is not the case. Directly qouting from the primary notability guide, "It meets either the general notability guideline below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline listed in the box on the right;". Note Or'. It gives no precedence to gng. duffbeerforme (talk) 14:18, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The SNG for this person is WP:NRU as he is a rugby union player. He fails that notability, as mentioned in the nomination. He fails both WP:SNG and WP:GNG. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 14:23, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your point being? Read what I'm actually saying. duffbeerforme (talk) 14:28, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is not suitable redirect for this player due to WP:XY and the person fails both WP:SNG and WP:GNG meaning he is not notable enough for a Wikipedia article. I'm not entirely sure what your other argument is as he's not an academic. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 14:30, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

He has played more games for Colorado Raptors than any other so a List of Raptors players article would be the best target. If it doesn't yet exist then a redirect to the team seem sensible pending the creation of a list article. duffbeerforme (talk) 14:47, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The page doesn't exist, plus there's no indication that statement will remain true as he's left the team and the team no longer exists. He could make more appearances for another team in the future. Readers searching for Dylan Taikato-Simpson could be searching for anything (such as his spell in Italy or playing for the Australian Barbarians) so WP:XY is in effect here. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 14:53, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Duffbeerforme: There actually is a current discussion at Wikipedia talk:Notability#SNG change about SNG vs GNG. But the short of it is: 8 out of 10 SNGs are written to in order meet GNG, including WP:NSPORTS (from NSPORTS: All information included in Wikipedia, including articles about sports, must be verifiable. In addition, the subjects of standalone articles should meet the General Notability Guideline). So yes, GNG outweighs the SNG for this subject right now. Yosemiter (talk) 14:32, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

An ongoing discussion May change things but hasn't yet. NSPORT says "The article should provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline or the sport specific criteria set forth below." OR. No overriding there. duffbeerforme (talk) 14:42, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This doesn't take away from the fact that the player does not meet WP:SNG (under WP:NRU in this case as he's a rugby union player), or WP:GNG, why should this page be kept if he doesn't meet any of these notability requirements? Rugbyfan22 (talk) 14:45, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Duffbeerforme: What I quoted is from Wikipedia:Notability (sports)#Applicable policies and guidelines and then further explained in Wikipedia:Notability (sports)#Basic criteria, which both expand on the brief intro you are pointing to. As to the ongoing discussion, it it mostly about making the phrasing in WP:N so SNGs should meet GNG, with some exceptions. No one is advocating for NSPORTS to be one of those exceptions, in fact, many think it should be more strict to GNG. Yosemiter (talk) 14:49, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Duffbeerforme: Also, you keep pointing to the OR in that sentence. This subject does NOT meet any of the SNGs, so GNG is the OR it needs to meet anyways. Yosemiter (talk) 16:03, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional article. WP:REFBOMBed, but no evidence of notability under WP:JOURNALIST or WP:GNG, despite talk page discussion. Fails to meet any of the prongs of WP:JOURNALIST. In a WP:BEFORE, no independent third-party sources found that are actually about the subject in sufficient detail for a BLP, rather than passing mentions or material by the subject. In the talk page discussion, the creator has failed to engage with the notability issues at all, lists extensive claims of notability-by-association, and added numerous sources to the article that didn't even mention the subject and broached multiple criteria of WP:REFBOMB.

Speedy delete It does well look like an advertisement ~Cupper (talk) 21:28, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep: Purely promotional material does not include numerous verifiable, secondary sources, especially not those which are negative on the subject. Promotional material does not typically include a section on controversy the subject has caused. The editor who has tagged and retagged this article has been unnecessarily provocative throughout, without any indication he particular cares what changes are made to the article. Such provocation and tags have been responded to with information at the talk page and improvements/changes to the article as indicated. As the subject is not classified as a journalist, rather a radio talk show co-host, journalist notability requirements should not apply. As for general notability guidelines, the coverage is certainly significant from numerous reliable, secondary sources, independent of the subject. The subject is notable enough for the current U.S. president to sit with him (at least twice) for interviews to discuss policy, as well as high-ranking members of the president's cabinet. He is notable enough to be asked to appear on the Tucker Carlson show, which has risen to the most-watched on cable television, as well as other prominent news shows. He is notable enough to be asked to speak and appear on panels at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, and he is notable enough to be mentioned in the Heavy Hundred list of radio talk show hosts nationwide. His co-host, host who moved to afternoon from his timeslot, and host who comes in right after his show all have approved articles on Wikipedia. Other charges in the above paragraph are simply false and do not, for this reason, merit a response.--Artaxerxes (talk) 22:11, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- The claims above are belied by reading the talk page discussion. If WP:JOURNALIST is not appropriate, then he needs to meet WP:GNG - but, per talk, he doesn't do that either. Rather than attacking another editor, you need to find independent third-party sources found that are actually about the subject in sufficient detail for a BLP, and clearly demonstrate notability.

The article last survived AfD in 2008, where the issue was neutrality issues. Since then, the issue has become less a lack of neutrality and more a crippling lack of usable sources, with Google being absolutely no help (strings: "Justin smith" american actor, "justin smith" actor man down, "justin smith" actor a good day to die hard, "justin smith" actor burn notice) due to hits in both general and news searches being unreliable or non-responsive, some of them being about Justice Smith instead. The article has never had particularly good sourcing (almost all IMDb, production companies, and/or Wikipedia), and at this point is non-compliant with BLP.

Non-notable band GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 17:59, 7 November 2020 (UTC) Swedish band. There are no sources, just external links - the band's website and myspace page which do not provide notability. There is no article about them on the Swedish WP. We don't even know if they are still active or not. Though the first sentence of the article is the following: "Molly was a Swedish band...", but the infobox states "1989-?" so it's unknown if they have split up or not. But it's most likely they did, as they haven't seem to made any waves whatsoever. At least I haven't found anything about them. Their name makes searching difficult, so I looked up their albums.

Have two full albums on a well-known indie label. That should be enough to establish notability. // Liftarn (talk) 15:33, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Liftarn: In part, yes. But the sourcing is more important. And that is abysmal, and I couldn't find any reliable sources. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:04, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK, feel free to change the tagging to {{refimprove}} then. // Liftarn (talk) 06:59, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Liftarn: Okay, but I have not found any reliable sources. If I would just tag it with {{refimprove}}, the article would still sit here without any reliable references. I know that since I have seen a lot of band articles in that state. That's why I brought this band to AfD, to see whether anyone else has found any RS. If there are reliable sources, I just put them in and we're done. Notability is proven. Tagging with {{refimprove}} does not have that much an effect, like I said, I have seen band articles that has been tagged as such for 5-10, maybe 12 years now. And as of now, it hasn't been changed. I can't name you any examples since there are lots of band articles on WP. Okay, I can tell you one. A few months ago I nominated the article of the band Satariel for deletion. It has been tagged with refimprove since 2008. The sourcing was abysmal in that one as well, and I could barely find any RS. But then, thanks to the AfD, notability was finally proven thanks to reliable sources. So that's why I prefer to bring potentially non-notable stuff to Afd instead of just tagging it with refimprove. We can talk about it here whether it's notable or not. I don't necessarily want the article to be deleted, just to talk about whether it's notable or not.

As you can see I have started, but with a band name like that googling is a bit difficult. // Liftarn (talk) 16:56, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Liftarn: Yeah, I have mentioned that too. They have a simple name, so searching "molly band" will result in lots of different stuff. That's why I also included the titles of their albums during a search, to specify I am looking for the Swedish band. And all I found the things I already mentioned above. And they are not reliable. Regards, GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 06:22, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I did find some in SMDB that should be reliable. And a review of Raj Raj from the magazine Terrorpop. // Liftarn (talk) 13:26, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Liftarn: I have never heard of any of these magazines. Google search did not return them either. Can you please post them here? GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 13:43, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

SMDB is not a magazine, but a media catalogue at the National Library of Sweden. It's used to show that Molly did indeed got published by Sista bussen and thus are notable according to Wikipedia standards. Terrorpop was a Swedish music magazine in the 90s.[56] Some articles are online at http://www.blaskoteket.se/tidningar/terrorpop/ Others can be bought, [57][58][59] // Liftarn (talk) 14:05, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

They sound reliable (especially the first one). I will take a look. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 15:36, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

These are just shop links where you can buy this magazine. Can you please post the articles that talk about Molly specifically? Thank you. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 15:39, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's in the article, but http://www.blaskoteket.se/artiklar/terrorpop/nr-03-1994/molly-raj-raj/ // Liftarn (talk) 16:45, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I have already found this (during a Google search)! That's what I dismissed as an "album review on a blog". I had no idea Terrorpop was a magazine. The name of the magazine, its look and feel, and the style of the review made me think it's a blog or fanzine. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 18:03, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No, it was a magazine, but the blog republishes some of the articles. // Liftarn (talk) 11:24, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And what about SMDB? GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:12, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

SMDB (Svensk mediadatabas) is "a search service for the audiovisual collections at the National Library of Sweden (KB). The database contains information about TV, radio, video, movies presented in theaters, CDs, and multimedia.". I considered it a reliable source to show that Molly had their two albums released on an important indie label so they fulfil the requirements of WP:BAND. ("Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable).". // Liftarn (talk) 07:08, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Although I have never heard of "Sista Bussen", that doesn't count for anything since according to the article they have been around since 1978. There are no reliable sources in that article either, might I add, just the official site of the label. The svwiki article doesn't even contain that. So I must admit I have doubts about that label's notability too. But google might return something, who knows, maybe there are reliable sources about the label. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 08:19, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia defines an important indie label as "a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable". Sista bussen has been around since 1978 so that's more than a few years and they have published Freddie Wadling, Köttgrottorna, Gudibrallan, Stefan Sundström, Leather Nun and so on so they fulfil the second requirement as well. Btw, it feels like you're moving the goalposts. // Liftarn (talk) 15:34, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"I am moving the goalposts"? What's that supposed to mean? Sorry, I'm Hungarian, I don't know the meaning of every phrase. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 08:18, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, first you asked for sources for Molly being notable and when I gave them you switched to asking for sources that Sista bussen is notable. Moving the goalposts // Liftarn (talk) 14:42, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Notability per Wikipedia guidelines (WP:BAND) established by reliable sources ("Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels"). Sista Bussen is an important indie label according to Wikipedia standards ("label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable"). // Liftarn (talk) 15:50, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete To the contrary, none of the sources in the article nor the extensive discussion above demonstrate notability under either the WP:GNG or WP:NMUSIC. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 19:30, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eggishorn: Thank you! Finally! I was right about this band being non-notable!

GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:48, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's notable according to Wikipedia rules. It's not the same as you need to have heard of it. // Liftarn (talk) 06:50, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Come on! I don't base an AfD on the reason "I have never heard of it". I'm just saying it but it's not my primary reason! That would be stupid! This band may be popular or known in the underground, but it's not notable for WP! End of story! GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 09:53, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that's the only argument you have left. I have conclusively proven that they are notable per WP:BAND and that you don't like it is is little relevance. // Liftarn (talk) 07:19, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect. It fulfils point 5. // Liftarn (talk) 06:45, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Liftarn:, how so? Making claims that an article subject fits some notability criteria should be supported by evidence. The albums in the article are circular links so that doesn't show evidence of ... two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels... Searching on Discogs shows that the two albums were released by Sista Bussen, and your article on that label itself shows notability issues. The definition of "one of the more important indie labels" includes having promoted well-known acts and of the nine bands you listed for Sista Bussen, only four are blue links and only one seems to have released a significant portion of their work on Sista Bussen. The claim of released two or more albums on a significant label is not sustained by the evidence available. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 16:44, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BAND says what is judged as notability ("Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels"). Sista Bussen is an important indie label according to Wikipedia standards ("label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable"). So we have established that Molly is a notable band. Now the goalposts have moved. I have given reliable sources for that Molly indeed are published by Sista Bussen (for instance SMDB, Svensk mediedatabas). // Liftarn (talk) 14:20, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Liftarn:, you are claiming moving goalposts when they are in exactly the same place. Look again. I quoted the exact same standard and explained that in no way, shape, or form, has it been demonstrated that Sista Bussen is an important indie label. I even stated that I found independently Sista Bussen as the record label. Sista Bussen shows no sign of being a qualifying label under WP:BAND. You have time and time again claimed to have "established" Molly's notability when you have failed to back that claim up with evidence. Every editor who creates an article is naturally defensive when that article is nominated for deletion but please at least try to read and respond to what is actually being stated. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 16:20, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The notability of Molly is established per WP:BAND ("Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels"). Now the goalposts have moved on to target Sista Bussen instead. Sista Bussen is notable as well ("label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable") so now the goalpost have moved to that there isn't enough sourcing for Sista Bussen. So what started out as a notability issue for a band is now a question about reliable sources for a label. That's what I call moving goalposts. // Liftarn (talk) 08:06, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The content of this article, and most of the others covering individual story arcs in the series, would likely be better suited to a summary episode list (which, unusually, this series does not yet have). Notability/sourcing issues aside, having a full article for each storyline would also arguably fall into the realm of excessive detail. J. Myrle Fuller (talk) 01:08, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
