  • Keep, added a good source[1] from the Bulbul page (Azar news). Randy Kryn (talk) 11:13, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Extended discussion about a source and contributor behavior
  • In this instance the source affirms that the statue exists (as images on the pages in question show), that it honors Bulbul (who remains quite honored and esteemed in his part of the world), and that it was dedicated and stands in the open air. Enough there to show that the statue has notability. Randy Kryn (talk) 14:06, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    To summarize, valid notability criteria for public sculpture, according to you are:
    • it exists
    • it depicts someone who is notable
    • it was dedicated (I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, an unveiling?)
    • it stands in the open air
    Right? Vexations (talk) 15:28, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The source I've added speaks for itself, and hopefully is enough to save this page. Thanks for making coming to AfD such a joy, like Christmas in July. Randy Kryn (talk) 16:22, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The source requires context; it is a propaganda outlet for the dictator Ilham Aliyev, who has a track record of using public art projects to burnish his reputation abroad. I'm actually not so sure I enjoy helping him accomplish that goal, but you apparently do. Vexations (talk) 16:59, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, me and Ilham are old drinking buddies. Some editors were just discussing elsewhere how AfD pages shouldn't be battlegrounds, and this kind of stuff comes up. No matter what I-ham (I call him I-ham, and he laughs) wants or doesn't want, the singer seems to have been a national icon who died three months before Aliyev was born, and thus had nothing to do with him, whose statue seems entirely appropriate for the national memory. Randy Kryn (talk) 19:19, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    For context, but I suppose every closer already knows this, I note that you almost always !vote Keep, except once, with an equally thoughtful contribution. Vexations (talk) 19:42, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Correct, because if I agree something should be deleted and actually take the time to look at it (not often, this place is the tunnel-ride of Wikipedia) the trend is usually already going that way and I skip it. My personal style. If I stop and vote to Keep it's because I mean it, the discussion is often in full-swing, and I've seen many well written and popular pages fail (thinking of the Kill Bill character page). I also never look at the daily AfD list (so many) but usually get here by checking the Visual Arts project list or seeing something ting on my watchlist. Thanks for the link, I'll be interested in reviewing my numbers later. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:21, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I made a little "anthology" of your contributions of the last 24 months. here. I think that suffices as evidence that your !votes at AfD should be ignored, because you consistently fail to comply with WP:DISCUSSAFD. Based on my findings, I think requesting a topic ban from participating in deletion discussions is called for. Vexations (talk) 22:30, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just today I was kind of told on another page that cancel culture at AfD wasn't real. Must be my imagination. In any case, the source I've added to this page should save it, all things being equal, so there's that to add to your good faith effort (which seems to not include quoting follow-up discussions, including this one).Randy Kryn (talk) 04:10, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Vexations: If I were you I wouldn't take away from the recent ANI about ARS members that going after everyone who mainly votes keep with nonsense reasons will be successful. Please pick your battles and don't waste people's time with low hanging fruit like Randy Kryn's voting behavior. --Adamant1 (talk) 05:29, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - doesn't pass the notability test. GoodDay (talk) 04:41, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The source I've added, solely about the statue, seems to give that test a run for its money. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:45, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Since you're not using rude edit summaries towards me, like another editor has been, when reverting me from his talkpage? then I'm cool. GoodDay (talk) 04:58, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are 6 links on the page in different languages. I see no reason to delete this article.--Rəcəb Həsənbəyov (talk) 07:30, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    There is something very strange going on with the dates on those sources. Archived in 2017 and retrieved even earlier, in 2014. All before the monument was erected. Before the article was written. How does that happen? Vexations (talk) 12:35, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The statue was unveiled in 2012 (31 October). Randy Kryn (talk) 14:03, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The article, not the monument. In this diff [1] from 8 November 2021 Randy Kryn introduces a citation with a parameter/value pair of access-date=2014-03-01. Vexations (talk) 15:37, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The article states near the top "7 November 2012 10:18 (UTC+04:00)", a week after the unveiling. Don't know why the various dates show up. I notice you've added the words "Before the article was written" in your comment after I'd answered, which clears up your concern, thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 15:41, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    No, now I'm even more suspicious. You're not being entirely forthcoming about how you manage to access a source7 years prior to your involvement with the article. Honest mistake? Perhaps. An explanation would be welcome. Vexations (talk) 15:54, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    As I said above when I posted it on November 8, found it on the Bulbar page. Perhaps I should have linked the page: Bulbul (singer). Randy Kryn (talk) 21:20, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The sources that have been added after the nomination, were all published around the same time, on the day of, or immediately after the date of the unveiling: [2] 31.10.2012, [3] 01.11.2012, [4] 31 Oktyabr 2012, [5] 31 october 2012, 13:00,[6] 7 November 2012, [7] 01.11.2012. They're mostly identical. I rely on machine translation, but [1] contains a phrase that translates as: "This was reported by the official press". There is no original reporting. That is unsurprising, because Azerbaijan does not have a free press. It is also clear that there is no sustained coverage after 2012. Vexations (talk) 16:07, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Wouldn't expect sustained coverage, it was put up and unveiled with handshakes and speeches. Then, as long as it wasn't vandalized or dragged down, or the site of a rededication or something, probably not much else would show up. Randy Kryn (talk) 21:24, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Notable works of art receive sustained coverage. They are subject to a critical discourse, they are studied, discussed and taught. Vexations (talk) 21:59, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I beg to differ, especially when it comes to modern public statues. Perhaps should call in Another Believer, one of worldwide Wikipedia's sculpture artwork editors, who would have knowledge of this. Randy Kryn (talk) 22:08, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    That's WP:Canvassing. Vexations (talk) 22:45, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Could have just as easily put a notice on the WikiProject Sculpture page, which would have likely have reached Another Believer. We are differing on a notability question concerning sculpture, AB would probably know the answer. Pinging directly eliminates the round-about. Randy Kryn (talk) 22:51, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Then call everybody else who watches that page. Vexations (talk) 23:41, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep because the given reason for deletion, "Article has only one source, a speech by President of Azerbaijan" appears to be no longer true based on current state of the article. Caleb Stanford (talk) 00:42, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaning towards merge to Bulbul (singer)#Commemmoration, which already has the image and discusses much of what little there is to say about the statue. Its significance appears to be that it honors its subject, and its location and the dignitaries who turned out for its unveiling are relevant to the fame of the singer, not any particular artistic quality of the statue.

  • Bob drobbs, may I ask why? A good source has been added, which makes the nomination language void, and the nominator seems, from the nom and the extended discussion in the cage above, to base much of their logic for deletion of a monument because a dictator unveiled the statue and gave a speech. Even though the singer died three months before the alleged dictator was born. BD2412 actually gives good reasons to Keep. The monument's notability stems from the iconic status of the singer and that it not only honors him in his hometown but very near his own home. What better place for a monument. As for not being a noted artistic piece, that seems irrelevant to keeping Wikipedia articles on monuments and other statues. There are probably hundreds of pages of individual statues which do not merit artistic greatness, university study, or professional papers. They just honor their subject. Randy Kryn (talk) 01:42, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No disrespect intended to the singer or his statue, but I think you largely answered your own question here: The monument's notability stems from the iconic status of the singer...
It's not significantly notable on it's own to merit a page, and it just makes more sense on the singer's page. A redirect should make it easy to find. -- Bob drobbs (talk) 01:49, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Further to that, I think what I gave was good reasons to merge. There is nothing to say about the statue that is not in the context of the subject. If all of that content is included in the commemmoration section for this subject, and the title redirects to that section, no information is lost for the reader. BD2412 T 01:55, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This is called a portrait statue. There may be thousands, surely hundreds, of portrait paintings and portrait statue artwork pages on Wikipedia notable for being modeled after a well-known (or not so well known) person. The argument that the page should be deleted because the monument depicts a singer seems unreasonable in light of those precedents. Randy Kryn (talk) 15:54, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody has proposed that the page should be deleted because the monument depicts a singer. Please don't misrepresent an argument made by another participant in this discussion. Vexations (talk) 16:08, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
lol (I only write that when I'm doing it). (still lol). My apology for being unclear. I don't think anyone wants to delete a nation's monument to a singer because he was a singer. What I should have said was simply that this is a portrait statue, the sculptural equivalent of a portrait painting. There are hundreds of articles on portrait sculptures on Wikipedia, why single this one out? Really don't know why you all want to delete it, that dictator reasoning takes the cake but I guess is as good as any. A good source has been found, the page is typical of its genre, and the singer sings on in sculptural form in a national monument very near his home. Nothing wrong or atypical in having a Wikipedia page about it. Randy Kryn (talk) 17:54, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Since we're on the topic of lack of clarity in your writing: "takes the cake" can mean both the best or the worst of something. Which is it? Vexations (talk) 19:26, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Both, when experienced from different viewpoints. I view the dictator's involvement with the statue as tangential and has nothing to do with the artwork being kept or not kept. You, unless I'm reading your comments in this discussion wrong, would like to delete the page because the dictator spoke at the unveiling. Room enough for both opinions, but I doubt a Wikipedia guideline covers deleting dictator-approved-artwork. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:22, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Then you have completely misunderstood what I wrote. Vexations (talk) 20:56, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If so then again my apologies. Either way, good faith reasons for deleting this article maybe should be analyzed and compared to the standard article of such artworks and monuments on Wikipedia, into which it falls nicely. Randy Kryn (talk) 23:33, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Bulbul as there only appears to have been a flurry of activity around unveiling then nothing, and nothing on the work of art itself ie. no analysis of its artistic merits, history/development of the statue. Coolabahapple (talk) 01:03, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge into Bulbul. As a founder and long-time participant in our WikiProject Public Art, it's best practice to usually discuss sculptures and public art about a specific subject (i.e. a celebrity) in the article about them unless it's an exception - tons of reliable secondary sourcing (not just brief press announcements about it being installed or unveiled), it's done by a famous artist, and so forth. I think this one is fine to mention in the singer's article. Missvain (talk) 20:27, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per above. References are an example of WP:SBST -- effectively press releases about emplacement and unveiling of the statue etc.; really the topic of coverage is a routine event, not so much the statue as a work of art. — Alalch Emis (talk) 00:33, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Have done some work on a merge, please take a look and improve the section, as Bulbar's monument seems destined for lesser Wikipedia glory. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:30, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

None of these articles are notable, and they consist almost entirely of plot summary and trivia. Not enough references to establish notability, either. An IP has decided to undo my initial redirect of these articles, along with many similar ones, so I am going through a formal AfD. As in the previous AfD I started on a Woody Woodpecker cartoon stub, I am seeking for almost all of these stubs to be redirected to Woody Woodpecker filmography. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Puny Express.

To avoid a shitshow, I will be listing these in groups of 5, so it isn't too difficult for editors to evaluate each set, rather than the 100 all at once. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 22:16, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to edit warring by an IP, this AfD has been messed up and now lists a deletion discussion notice at Woody Woodpecker filmography, which is not what I intended. I'll admit I'm not entirely sure how to fix this. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 22:32, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This can be withdrawn, I'm not exactly sure what went wrong but it's obviously not working the way I intended. I will refile it properly once I get my head screwed on correctly again. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 22:49, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable academic department at the University of Toronto. Note WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES which isn't technically a policy but might as well be that "Faculties, departments or degree programs within a university, college, or school are generally not considered notable unless they have made significant contributions to their field". The Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto is not very important aside from being the first department to offer a computer science doctorate in Canada and having strong university rankings for what seems to be their undergraduate program. I'm not detecting it being especially important in the field of computer science; just above average. Going on the WP:NORG criteria, almost all of the sources in the article are affiliated with the University of Toronto and fail the independent criteria, including the full book-length paean commissioned by the university to chronicle its mathematics department. The Scott Campbell source was written by a professor who works at the University of Toronto, and only briefly mentions the Department of Computer Science itself. Likewise for the Atkinson source and the source about Magen, both of which are obituaries that only briefly mention the department itself. The few ranking sources are WP:ROUTINE coverage and are not significant, being rote listings. Chess (talk) (please use {{reply to|Chess}} on reply) 19:56, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It was established in the 50s/60's, then goes into the 70's, then the article goes to 2002. Nothing terribly notable seems to have happened there over the years and I can't find any pioneers in the field from this program. Not to say it's a bad program, just not notable for our case. Oaktree b (talk) 20:28, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Notable people can be part of the list of the university's notable people, the information about divisions can probably found in the department's website by those interested, and it seems to lack notable events. Possibly this article's subject's faculty could be expanded with this article's contents. Santacruz ⁂ Please tag me! 00:58, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object This department is consistently ranked as one of the top ten CS departments in the world, and is especially noted for world leading research, including many key developments in Human-Computer Interaction in the 1970s and 1980s, and Computer Graphics more recently (through the Dynamic Graphics Project). It's also where much of the current research on Machine Learning was pioneered, through the work of Geoff Hinton (the "father of deep learning"). I would argue it should be tagged for improvement, rather than deletion.Steve Easterbrook (talk) 18:27, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect into the University of Toronto. None of the sourcing convinces me this school should have its own article. Missvain (talk) 20:32, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. There is no indication that this particular department has received enough independent coverage to meet WP:GNG or WP:NORG. Also, a redirect seems unnecessary because the article University of Toronto only mentions this department a single time, and that particular mention ("Within the Faculty of Arts and Science, notable departments include the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Mathematics") might not even be worth keeping in that article if this article no longer exists. --Zander251 (talk) 06:50, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Per the article talk page, the article only appears to have been created because she is the chair of the board at Wikimedia UK but as we should all know, notability is not inherited. SmartSE (talk) 19:10, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the artice on Committee on Standards in Public Life is out of date and does not show the current membership (noted on talk page) but she served a term there although not a current member. PamD 08:55, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. A bureaucrat in a notable organisation isn't automatically notable. The positions Johnbod and PamD list don't seem to have led to any significant coverage in secondary sources. – Joe (talk) 09:04, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - putting the COI issue aside for now, this person does not appear to be notable. Like Joe Roe above, I could find no significant coverage about her in secondary sources, and none of the positions held currently or previously appear to confer a presumption of notability. firefly ( t · c ) 11:08, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Johnbod and PamD. I'm a member of WMUK, but that is hardly relevant; to the best of my knowledge have never interacted with Monisha Shah, who was clearly notable before her WMUK role. Her entry at [11] alone shows sufficient roles to warrant an entry in Wikipedia; and that "In 2009, she was elected Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum." There is further coverage in [12], [13], [14], [15], & [16]. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:58, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • None of these rationales have any basis in policy. Feel free to create WP:IMPORTANTJOB if you like, but if someone is important, they receive significant coverage. Let's examine the coverage you link to:
      • [17] Monisha Shah was the only non-white member of the committee – but she stepped down earlier this year
      • [18] The departure of Monisha Shah and the appointments of Ewen Fergusson and Professor Gillian Peele in July left the eight-strong committee all-white for the first time since at least 2015
      • [19] Shah is chair of Rose Bruford College of Theatre and Performance, in London. She is also a trustee of ArtFund, an independent fundraising charity for art. She was previously director of sales for emerging markets at BBC Worldwide. She is a member of the government’s Committee on Standards in Public Life, which works on ethical standards in public life in England. Note that this is a student newspaper, so of little use for demonstrating notability.
      • [20] The judges .... Monisha Shah, media consultant
      • [21] Monisha Shah, an independent media consultant.
    • Apart from Varsity, these are all extremely brief and trivial mentions, far from WP:SIGCOV. SmartSE (talk) 12:13, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Furthermore, she also has an entry in Who's Who. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:15, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment Re: Who's Who, see Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources "There is no consensus on the reliability of Who's Who UK. It is a reference work with information mainly collected from the people concerned. Editors are divided on whether sufficient editorial control exists, and whether it is an independent source." Edwardx (talk) 13:13, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • That relates to the content of the work; nevertheless, she is regarded as significant enough to warrant an entry. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:47, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
          • Whilst it may be an improvement on the others, by itself, it is still not enough to meet WP:SIGCOV as it is only a single source. SmartSE (talk) 13:49, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - no GNG sources, end of story. Smh at a WMUK member in here arguing Who's Who, have some dignity. Levivich 14:09, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep (as original creator of the article, with a declared potential COI). I have added some more references including several secondary sources which are independent of the organisations where she has severed as a trustee. Her contribution to civil society in the UK, through a range of public sector and charitable bodies, is considerably greater than many sports or pop music biographies although these tend to gain greater coverage in the popular press.— Rod talk 15:22, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, fails WP:GNG and all other standards. Editors with COI should not vote in AfDs. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:24, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per SmartSE's analysis. Sources are trivial at best and non-contributory at worst. This is like the articles of many non-notable marketing professionals that litter the archives of AfD. WP:ANYBIO, which I think applies to this article and WP:GNG are not met. Plenty of mentions of this person but little about them. Jip Orlando (talk) 17:28, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note Future (and recent) commenters (and the closer) should view this version of the article, and not the stub to which it has just been farcically reduced. I've noted some of the worst removals on its talk page. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:40, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes, shredding an article in a tendentious way during the Afd process is inappropriate. Johnbod (talk) 18:28, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • It's quite normal to trim poorly sourced parts of an article while it is at AfD, so you can see if what is left is worth saving. – Joe (talk) 08:00, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • Indeed, but we're not discussing "poorly sourced parts of an article", as the linked talk page discussion makes clear. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:23, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • Come off it, Joe - this, removing about 30 sources, many of the highest quality, is not] a "trim [of] poorly sourced parts of an article". Johnbod (talk) 17:27, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
          • John which sources specifically are you referring to as "of the highest quality” I don’t believe that I removed a single instance of significant coverage from an independent WP:RS. I assume you don’t mean Amazon [22] OFCOM meeting minutes [23] an opinion piece on a blog [24] and numerous press releases? Note that you mischaracterize the diff you use as its an amalgam that includes [25] which was a revert on COI grounds. Also in the future if you’re going to attack me at least have the decency to tag me. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:25, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
              • (ec) Are you seriously suggesting that ONLY sources directly relevant to a GNG debate belong in an article at all? Totally unbelievable!! Got any policy support for that?? Johnbod (talk) 18:34, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
                • What makes you think I’m suggesting that? I’m saying that I don’t believe that any of the sources I removed were "of the highest quality” as you have asserted. Also please remember that you have a COI so for your own sake please keep it civil. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:54, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Shah is so obviously one of the current "great and the good", perhaps helped by appointing groups desperate to increase diversity, that if we delete this article I doubt it will be too long before we find she's got a life peerage and we're re-creating it for a member of the House of Lords. If she was doing anything scandalous, being booted off these committees ahead of normal expiry times etc, she'd be getting the media coverage which would more clearly make her "notable" in WP terms. As it is, we just have numerous official, reliable, sources, which substantiate her work in various positions, most of which sources have been removed on the basis that we can't rely on the "self-published source" (aka official website) of a reputable organisation to support anything about her except for her position within that organisation, which seems a bizarre interpretation of "self-published sources". I'd rather trust a gov.uk page than many newspapers. Ah well. I think she'll be back, even if deleted this time. PamD 21:42, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, plus for most of the time she has been a senior executive at the BBC (where somebody got the idea that she is a public relations person is beyond me, like much on this page), who don't encourage such people to have a personal media profile. Unlike the nonentities with PR agents who clutter up WP. Johnbod (talk) 01:21, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Per Andy Mabbett et al with the standards committee being particularly relevant, as are BBC roles. Wikimedia chair or whatever is relatively irrelevant but should not place at a disadvantage. Djm-leighpark (talk) 22:14, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete No real indication of notability. Arguments in favor of keeping seem mainly around the fact that she ranks highly in the bureaucracy of notable organizations and does useful work. But neither of those are really notability guidelines; a Wikipedia entry is not an award given for good service. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 07:00, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Advertorialized WP:BLP (possibly an WP:AUTOBIO as it was created by a WP:SPA who maintained and updated it over five years without ever making a single Wikipedia edit about any other topic) of a musician with no strong or properly sourced claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The strongest notability claim here is a bit of regional (but not national) touring -- but NMUSIC #4 isn't passed just by saying a tour happened, and actually requires showing a non-trivial amount of reliable source media coverage about the tour, and that's absent. Nothing else here is a strong notability claim, and the referencing consists of two primary sources that aren't support for notability at all, and two hits of "local guy does stuff" in his own hometown newspaper, which isn't enough coverage to get him over WP:GNG all by itself in lieu of having to accomplish something that would pass NMUSIC's achievement-based criteria. There's just nothing here that's "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced much, much better than this. Bearcat (talk) 18:01, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sports stadium that has been unsourced for over 9 years, no reliable sources found other than routine sports coverage and casual mentions. Attempt to redirect reverted by a single editor who pointily reverted numerous unsourced articles from being redirected to their associated club articles, following a flap at RfD -- and perhaps one should take note that the editor in question, with only a handful of edits, has a user name identical to the stadium involved. [26]. Per WP:GEOFEAT, "Buildings, including private residences and commercial developments, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability."

In trying to find sources I was inundated with a kind of composting toilet, so I'm hoping some other folks can help try to assess the notability here. From what is in the page as is, I don't think its notable. A kind of poem used by one author apparently sparingly a century ago is perhaps not fully encyclopedic.

The result was delete and redirect to Horoscope#Angles. There was initially disagreement about whether to let fringe sources establish notability of this fringe concept, but after the redirection was proposed, nobody disagreed with it. As to whether to delete the content first, I can't give the initial "keep" opinions much weight, because they were more about the notability of the concept, and not really about the merits of the existing content. And with respect to that, the nominator's argument that the content is unsourced OR has remained unrebutted, and accordingly it merits oblivion. Sandstein 17:37, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - These sources are all written by astrologers, who are practicing a belief system, and therefore have a vested interest in astrology, completely failing WP:INDEPENDENT. Their publishers are also closely affiliated to the subject (they're all occult/new age publishers) and, quite apart from their lack of independence, have no reputation for fact checking at all, nor any established system of editorial oversight (peer review, etc.). They're just not reliable.
I'm not sure whether this topic passes WP:GNG (please do look for other sources), but these are not the sources that will prove it (and certainly not sources that should actually be used in the article!). I would expect keep !voters to cite at least a few truly reliable (in this case, academic) sources. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 21:15, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I can't strike them, but I acknowledge that ref #1 and #3 are self-published and therefore unreliable. SailingInABathTub (talk) 21:04, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. WP:Fringe makes a clear distinction between "notability" and "acceptance". Statements about the the _truth_ or science of astrology can not be sourced to be credulous astrologers, but the policy makes it clear that such sources are not disqualified from being reliable sources for determining the notability of the belief, and describing the details of the belief. ApLundell (talk) 20:46, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    This misrepresents WP:NFRINGE. That guideline does in no way imply that our general notability guidelines, which ask for significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, would not apply for fringe. On the contrary, it explicitly states that the notability of a fringe theory must be judged by statements from verifiable and reliable sources, not the proclamations of its adherents. What the 'Notability versus acceptance' section in WP:NFRINGE actually says is that the fact that a theory is not accepted should not itself be a reason to declare it non-notable. That's of course not to be reversed into the claim that all not-accepted theories are notable, just because they are mentioned in non-independent, unreliable sources. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 21:15, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep While a fringe topic, there's plenty of non-fringe source coverage of the topic. I just did a quick search for recent stuff (and just picked the first thing that popped up on Newspapers.com and ProQuest that had the subject). Of course, a lot of the coverage is going to be of the type of popular magazine type coverage, since astrology isn't a science, but more of a cultural philosophy or...something that isn't based on any form of evidence. Anyways, see here:
And I also found something rather interesting. I think it's one of the earliest critical works on astrology. It's a series of essays published in a book by Richard A. Proctor covering the mythological claims and history of the practice of astrology. He notes throughout that it's bunk, but it's meaningful cultural bunk that has had consistent impact on society and culture for centuries. And the book is from 1877. So, that's cool.
Anyways, as with most of astrology, it's fringe nonsense that, nonetheless, has been notable fringe nonsense that the general public has bought into for whatever reason for centuries. I don't, however, think the four sub-topics of angles need their own articles until they are properly referenced and concisely discussed in a manner that deserves an independent article from this one. And they don't appear to have that yet. SilverserenC 22:45, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why would Bustle, a womens gossip magazine, be a reliable source for astrology concepts? Hemiauchenia (talk) 05:09, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • What would be a reliable source for a non-scientific cultural and society subject? Culture magazines, of which women's magazines are included, seem like fine sources for that sort of topic. Since you just need sources about its history and how it's used, not about it doing anything. Since it doesn't do anything, it's cultural mysticism. SilverserenC 05:51, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • We shouldn't base encyclopedia articles on "sources" that are either deluded or grifting. Horoscopes are either one or the other. Scrolling down that Bustle link gives more headlines: "Libras Will Relate To These 25 Quotes"; "Manifesting Your Dreams During An Eclipse Is A Bad Idea" ("Because eclipses help us to align with our fates..."). Good grief. Cultural and social topics deserve better coverage than supermarket tabloids or their digital equivalents. XOR'easter (talk) 20:42, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree that magazines are absolutely not to be mistaken for reliable sources. This should be really obvious, but they have no reputation for fact-checking, nor any system of editorial oversight. Zarka 2009 mentions the word "angle" only once, and not with the meaning given to that term in this article. Again, this topic may well pass WP:GNG, but these are not the sources that will prove that. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 21:00, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete/Redirect to Horoscope as this is an unnecessary fork, per above. Also, the current content, in addition to being rather limited, would fail WP:V (the sole source is used for one author's statement on the matter), so there's not much reason to merge it - sources found above, if they are reliable (of those in Silver seren's post, the first three are some lifestyle pop magazine sections, which are not really acceptable sources for writing an encyclopedia (Wikipedia is not "Pop Culture Wiki", obviously). No comment on the rest, although these seem to offer a more general overview, so are probably good indications that this is better organised and presented to the reader with sufficient context, which is better done in articles which cover the subject more broadly, like the suggested target.

Fails the general notability guideline. All sources I could find were either directly affiliated, unreliable (notably the Forbes contributor piece) or based solely on press releases.

The article seems to have misinterpreted the whole context- a peasantry based uprising is shown as some part of series of the fictitious wars between two groups here which wasn't the case in reality. And the claims of the article is doubtful considering no major writer has talked about it. It looks more of an another fringe based article pointing towards some intention of caste glorification by the owner. In my opinion the page is fit for deletion, as it is full of misinformation/misquoting of facts from heading to the end. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RS6784 (talk • contribs) 06:51, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment- The article needs to be deleted on three points:
1. The title "Battle of Pichuna" is misleading. No reputed writers of Indian history from any school of thoughts has talked about "Battle of Pichuna" and it is not taught in any University of India. A skirmish cannot be overexaggerated as battle and presented on Wikipedia to confuse the readers. I request editors to look into it.
2. This battle is shown here in the article as some part of the series of fictitious wars between two sides. During post Aurangzeb era there were peasantry based revolts. Some exchanges did happened but there were no fixed loyalties.
3. I could only find one Dwivedi and Srivastava talking about a skirmish which resulted in death of one Nilkanth Nagar ( again they have not called it as Battle of Pichuna). No other reputed Historians has talked about any such Battle.
Considering all this fact, I think the article is fit for deletion. A simple description of such an event can be done on Sadaat Khan's page. We don't need a separate page for such skirmishes or military exchange which aren't even talked about by decent numbers of writers.

  • Comment The book The Jats, Their Role in the Mughal Empire does seem to support the claims made in the article. The question of merging isn't an inappropriate one, considering that details are scant, but I don't think the nominator took the best course of action here by claiming everything was false. -Indy beetle (talk) 12:05, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - This battle occurred and has been given significant coverage in at least this source. However finding a second reference so this can pass WP:GNG has proved tricky. This source says that Nilkanth Nagar was defeated by the Jats in battle but gives no real details of the battle and does not say that Nilkanth Nagar was killed, but presumably this battle is what they are talking about. This source says that Nilkanth Nagar was murdered by the Jats. This source says Nilkanth Nagar was killed fighting the Jats but gives no details. This source gives a detailed description of the battle without mentioning exactly where it was. This source instead describes a rather fanciful story of Nilkanth Nagar's murder by a Jat without mentioning any battle. Whilst the sources are divided on how Nilkanth Nagar met his end, Nilkanth Nagar having fought and lost a battle against the Jats is not incompatible with this murder story and two sources that appear to be reliable ones (though of course if a more modern history is available we should prefer it) describe a battle that matches the one on the page occurring in September 1721 between Jats and forces under Nilkanth Nagar. The title "battle of Pichuna" is a descriptive one as far as I can see.
A merge is not appropriate unless a suitable target is identified, and I don't see one. FOARP (talk) 14:29, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment- FOARP, some of the links like Bingley etc given above are all from the days of British rule ( pre-1947). Now there is rule WP:RAJ made with respect to India. Regarding Jadunath Sarkar, he doesn't call it directly as "Battle of Pichuna". And even no modern historian has talked about a battle named "Battle of Pichuna". Therefore, how does the content of the page becomes fully reliable. We editors cannot directly judge whether a battle happened or not, it is upto writers to decide it. Recent historians have not mentioned about such a battle and this does point to something. I nominated the article for deletion as the title of the same itself is misleading. There is no mention of Battle of Pichuna anywhere in history book. So how can we create one such Battle on Wikipedia. This is not the case like Battle of Panipat, Battle of Tarain etc which are described in history books.

RS6784(talk) — Preceding undated comment added 19:40, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

They don't use the specific name "Battle of Pichuna", but that there was a battle in September 1721 near the village of Pichuna is supported by the sources. It is perfectly acceptable to decide a descriptive title to use here on Wikipedia. WP:RAJ is an essay that focuses especially on the issue of caste, and does not exclude using Raj-era history books, just that we should treat them with caution. FOARP (talk) 20:01, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment- FOARP, why not merge it on Sadaat Khan's page. This way the title part becomes redundant. It was Sadaat Khan who was initially tasked to handle the Agra area, only when he was moved against Ajit Singh. The remaining task was given to some Nilkanth Nagar. So, if not delete then it should be merged on Sadaat Khan's page rather than creating a separate page with title - " Battle of Pichuna" which no modern historian mentions in any book.RS6784(talk) — Preceding undated comment added 19:50, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
But there are articles for which this battle is equally as, or even more relevant (e.g., Muhkam Singh, Bharatpur, Rajasthan). Sadaat Khan did not personally take part in the battle so his involvement in it is peripheral. Not an obvious merge target. FOARP (talk) 20:01, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge - One battle between Mokham Singh and Nilkanth Nagar did happen, there is no doubt about that. Where did that happen is only supported by one source that History of Jats by Dwivedi, he also only name a village where Nilkanth Nagar raids, doesn't say battle was fought there, rather says it was fought while returning. This book mind you is little biased towards Jats in general and I don't think author wrote any other book. Now about WP:NOTE, this battle is mentioned in two to three lines in every sources mentioned here. So it was not some important battle, and doesn't deserve its separate page. Above that no source give the battle a name, hence it is not regarded that much important by historians as to give it some name. My suggestion is it should be merged with Muhkam Singh.Hiensrt (talk) 20:17, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hiensrt - The issue you're highlighting here is essentially an article-naming one, right? If the article is kept, would a move to a different title address this? For example, both Jadunath Sakar and Dwivedi state that the battle happened near Fatehpur Sikri, so "Battle at Fatehpur Sikri" or "Battle near Fatehpur Sikri" addresses your concern about accuracy as to where it took place. It is not obvious why this battle (which definitely passes WP:GNG based on those two sources) should be necessarily merged to Muhkam Singh when there are other equally-suitable candidates - indeed that there are multiple candidates points to this being a suitable topic for a stand-alone article. FOARP (talk) 08:35, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
FOARP Not just naming, I also raised point of WP:NOTE. This battle which only mentioned as 2-3 lines in almost every sources we have seen, and not much detail is given in any book is in my opinion not qualified for a separate article. Specially because this battle happened in 18th century and almost every important or semi important battle of that time has been mentioned with vivid details by mamy historians. Merging with Muhkam Singh article will also beef up that article because that article is also a stub. Besides as I pointed out I have doubts about the book by Mr Dwivedi, I have read it a little bit and in my opinion it is biased towards Jat history.Hiensrt (talk) 14:27, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Some more sources to consider:
On thing the second source makes clear is that this was all part of a wider conflict between the Mughals and the Jats, so does a wider article covering these campaigns exist? That might be a suitable target for a merge. At any rate a change of title is needed as only one source identifies Pichuna as the village that Nilkanth Nagar raided but all that cover the battle agree that his camp was at Fatehpur Sikri and he was ambushed whilst returning there.

2002 Queens rape[edit]

2002 Queens rape (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article as it presently stands represents an extraordinary failure of WP:NPOV and WP:RS. It was written by E.M.Gregory, who, in March 2019, just a month after this article was written, was "indefinitely topic banned from pages and content related to illegal immigration, immigration policy, and the relationship between crime and immigration" (see [37]). He was subsequently indeffed for sockpuppeting to attempt to evade this ban. Even without knowing the background, it's clear from the writing style that the author had an agenda about illegal immigration, considering it's the second thing mentioned in the lead, and the editorialization of the crime in Wikipedia's voice.

The sourcing is similarly atrocious, and I do not believe it supports an argument to notability under WP:NEVENT. The citations to the New York Post can't support notability as the source is deprecated. The Gougherty, Buchanan, and City Journal sources are trivial mentions and not WP:SIGCOV of the crime. New York Daily News, Queens Chronicle and Queens Gazette are all local news, so they don't provide any indication that the crime meets the NEVENT requirement that the event "affects a major geographical scope".

The Impact section is problematic as it makes the case that the rape was a direct cause of Bloomberg issuing the new immigration-status-related executive orders, but that isn't borne out by the sources when you actually read them. At best, you can see in the Queens Gazette and Times Ledger sources that Senator Frank Padavan claims that Bloomberg's changes were the result of this crime, but there's nothing that actually substantiates that. One man making an unsubstantiated claim about another man's motives does not, to me, indicate the kind of "lasting major consequences" required by NEVENT.

The remaining sources, Wilson's NYT article and the unbylined WaPo article, are reliable and significant, but both came out in the immediate aftermath of the crime, so they don't meet the requirement for "significant non-routine coverage that persists over a period of time". ♠PMC♠ (talk) 03:58, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete with the strongest prejudice possible. E.M.'s only purpose here was to create biased articles that checked their boxes against their pet topic of anti-illegal immigration sentiment and using any urban crime committed by one to push their narrative, especially if it was lurid, violent, and stomach-turning. This reads as absolute trash you'd expect to find in The Illustrated Police News, and neutralizing it is completely impossible. And their creation rationale that it was 'ongoing in-depth' when it happened seventeen years ago should've warranted an immediate ban from creating new articles.

  • Strong Keep. This article is poorly written, but the subject is undoubtedly notable and there should be an article on it. This crime was arguably the most significant non-terrorism crime in New York City since the Central Park jogger case. Indeed, it received extensive coverage in NYC and national media and countless parallels were drawn between the Central Park case and this one. Just like any article with POV issues, it is hardly beyond repair. There is some good content in here and a lot of bad content. Rather than be deleted, it should be cleaned up. In fact, I would like to work on cleaning it up in the near future. Ergo Sum 04:36, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - (edit conflict) even if it were notable, it probably merits a WP:TNT. I don't miss the EM Gregory style of POV crime article, and there are a lot of terrible sources here (this is right up the NY Post's alley, of course, which doesn't miss an opportunity to characterize NYC as a dangerous crime wasteland where ["thugs"/homeless] prey on the innocent and [police/politicians] do nothing). But beyond the TNT, PMC has a point about notability. Beyond the coverage at the time of the event, there doesn't seem to be much with more than a brief mention thereafter (lasting significance), apart from typical follow up about the court case. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 04:43, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Second Rhododendrites' analysis. A tragic event to be sure, but written purely as inflammatory POV garbage sourced mostly to tabloids. WP:TNT for sure, though perhaps it's possible that GNG could be satisfed for recreation. -Indy beetle (talk) 12:10, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. per WP:PERSISTENCE. The block and punishment history of the article creator is something of a red herring, as this article is not a product of ban evasion and the POV of the editor is irrelevant. I don't find the writing of the article to be problematic. I am more concerned with this not being of sufficiently lasting significance.. That appears to be the case, at least as the article is currently framed. Coretheapple (talk) 22:35, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a musician, not reliably sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The strongest notability claim here is winning awards that aren't prominent enough to pass NMUSIC #8, and are "referenced" solely to those awards' own self-published websites about themselves rather than any evidence that they get enough media coverage to confer notability on their winners -- and besides that, the only other source here (now deadlinked) was her own self-published PR on the website of her own record label, and even on a ProQuest search for older coverage I just get a small handful of glancing namechecks of her existence in sources that aren't about her in any non-trivial way, with absolutely nothing substantive enough to count toward getting her over WP:GNG. Note also that I'm bundling her album, which is also an entirely primary-sourced article that fails to even provide a track listing.

Completely unsourced article about a shortlived internet radio station. Note that internet radio streams do not get an automatic presumption of notability per WP:NMEDIA just because they (purportedly) existed -- to be notable enough for a Wikipedia article, it would have to show a WP:GNG-worthy volume of reliable source coverage about it in media independent of itself, in order to establish its enduring significance -- but this has been tagged for lacking sources since 2010, without ever having any new sources added to bolster its notability. As I don't have access to any database in which I could forage for archived US media coverage about something that went belly-up 17 years ago, I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody can actually find more solid sourcing to salvage this with -- but nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to pass GNG on the referencing.

This article is extremely subjective and the facts have been challenged on the talk page. It's had tags about tone and verifiability since 2012. It appears to have been made following interviews with the subject herself. I tried searching for further information on her, and Google exclusively returns sites that have copied the text of this WP entry and a single self-published book from lulu.com, "The Singular Life of Countess Ingeborg de Beausacq". A search of my academic library results only in a few photo captions from magazines in the 1950s.

Subject of the article does not meet notability guidelines. As an athlete, subject did not compete in the Olympics or World Championships and was not National champion[1].

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a musician (likely WP:AUTOBIO, if you compare the creator's username to the topic's name and date of birth) of a musician with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The strongest notability claim here is that she was nominated for minor regional music awards that don't satisfy WP:NMUSIC #8 (which is looking for awards on the order of the Junos or the Grammys, not just any small-fry music award that exists). This is referenced 50 per cent to primary sources that are not support for notability at all, and fifty per cent to a tiny smattering of coverage in community hyperlocals which aren't widely distributed enough to get her over WP:GNG all by themselves if they're the best she can do. As always, Wikipedia is not a free publicity platform for aspiring future stars to advertise themselves -- she needs to accomplish something a lot more significant, and have a lot more sourcing than this to show for it, before she's a suitable Wikipedia article topic.

Advertorialized WP:BLP of a musician with no properly sourced indication of notability per WP:NMUSIC. This waves its hand in the direction of criterion #4 (touring), but the test there isn't just saying the musician toured, but showing that the musician received substantive coverage about the tour (such as concert reviews) in sources independent of himself -- and I've been utterly unable to verify the tour anywhere else either, as his name gets just three hits total in a ProQuest search and they're all event calendar listings in his hometown newspaper. This is not referenced to any other evidence of media coverage at all -- it's 4/5 primary sources and 1/5 an alt-weekly newspaper, and even that isn't linking to an actual article about Jake Kerbrat but merely to the publication's front splash page. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have much, much better sourcing than this, but as I already noted I can't find scratch.

Follow-up Comment - At the time of my first vote above, I was unaware that the two musicians later formed The Dissociatives, so the recommendations below to merge to that band's article are valid. A simple redirect is also valid because this album still has no notability in its own right. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:09, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or Merge to The Dissociatives. I've expanded the article and provided references for this release, I believe it is sufficient to verify notability. However, if not kept it should be merged to the Dissociatives (same band members) as an alternative to deletion. That article already describes the fore-runner duo and this release.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 22:46, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to The Dissociatives. Shaidar cuebiyar has done some good detective work here, but at the end of the day, it still doesn't say anything much more than the duo recorded five songs for fun at home, and then decided to release them – there's no in-depth description of the recording process, what the songs sound like, reviews of the EP, etc. I definitely think this would be better included as a short paragraph at the Dissociatives' article, which would then give some useful background and context as to how that band started.

Unnecessary content fork. If I remember correctly, lists of international goals were only made for top scorers of national teams. Zidane has never been the top scorer in the history of the France national team. Also, there isn't that much prose on this article that would warrant keeping it as a standalone article. There is just a small overview paragraph, the goals chart, and a statistic section already in the Zinedine Zidane main article. Note: this article was nominated for deletion in 2016 as part of a bigger deletion, but was kept on rather controversial grounds IMO. Paul Vaurie (talk) 00:38, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • It doesn't warrant a separate article, so should be selectively merged back i.e. without all the detail.

Trivial cross-categorisations ("age at death" and "former political office holder") which are also statistical trivia and which typically fail to cite a single source, thus not meeting either of WP:V or WP:LISTN, and violating WP:OR. Just a massive collection of WP:TRIVIA (one article has a Presidents by age group (Septuagenarian, Quinquagenarian, Quadragenarian etc.) table and chart...) only some of which is: ages and lengths of time repeatedly given in years and days; many further calculate how many xx,xxx thousands of days someone was/is alive or retired; some have a section for the apparently Wikipedia editor created title "oldest living leader of x" over time. The relevant parent lists are of a vastly higher quality and are all Wikipedia needs.

@Superegz The article List of prime ministers of the Netherlands already has that sortable column, it's just only in days, not years and days like here. Nothing will be lost if this article is deleted, and the other article can be easily altered to display time in office in years and days format if that is what you prefer. I hope that satisfies your concern. Newshunter12 (talk) 04:06, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No not really, for the same reasons that we debated in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Australian prime ministers by political affiliation a couple of weeks ago. Once again you and Vladimir.copic are trying to turn 2 tables that are displaying different types of information into one and it simply doesn't work.

WP:BLP of a journalist, not properly referenced as passing our notability criteria for journalists. As always, journalists are not all automatically notable enough for Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- the notability test is not "person who has a job", but "person whose work in their job has been externally validated as significant by independent third party sources". But of the just four distinct footnotes being cited here (one of which is redundantly reduplicated five times for the deceptive appearance of nine footnotes), three are her own staff profiles on the self-published websites of her own employers, which are not support for notability, and the last is a blog entry covering her not in the context of any potential notability claims as a journalist, but solely in the context of her wedding -- which means that absolutely none of the footnotes actually represent proper support for her notability as a journalist, because the only one that's independent of her is about her personal life rather than her work.
This was created in September, then moved to draftspace the next day on the grounds that it wasn't adequately sourced, but then was arbitrarily moved back to mainspace yesterday by a relatively new editor with a claim that she "meets GNG" without actually showing any GNG-worthy sources (which, again, absolutely none of the footnotes currently shown here are) to substantiate that she would meet GNG. So the sourcing here isn't cutting it at all, but since it's already been move-warred over I don't see the value in just redraftifying it again. Bearcat (talk) 16:52, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment All of my analysis of non-English sources is based on translation with Google Translate.
  • The 2020 Visit Sweden source reads like an advertisement (e.g. "Between 2011 and 2014 Natalia lived in Sweden and gained a Swedish perspective on nature") and is mostly based on her statements, so I am concerned about the independence of the source due to the publisher and the content.
  • The 2016 Techambassadören ser framtiden i Sverige (Dina Pengar) source does not appear to have WP:SECONDARY context beyond introducing as "the American tech ambassador" and "No wonder Spotify founder Daniel Ek and Avicii manager Ash Pournouri made her CEO of the joint creativity event "Symposium" in Stockholm" because the article is based on "a long interview with Dina Pengar, Brzezinski talks about the work of raising Swedish values ​​in the world and how Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton helped her along the way."
  • The 2019 Har lockat hit eliten: ”Sverige är framtiden” (Dina Pengar) source, reads a bit like celebrity gossip, (e.g. commentary includes, "She seems to have made some powerful friends in Sweden.") and is mostly based on her statements, (e.g. "According to Natalia Brzezinski, the fact that the event is closed to the press is to create a place where change can take place.").
  • In the 2019 Natalia Brzezinski: "Det värmer mitt hjärta" (Expressen, the parent company of Dina Pengar) source, this appears to be a video interview titled (translated) "The CEO of Brilliant Minds is pleased with the conference."
  • Natalia Brzezinski, Tech-Savvy And Gen Y, Breaks The Mold For Ambassadors' Wives (HuffPost, 2012) includes some biographical information but is mostly based on her statements, e.g. ("To accomplish her goals, Brzezinski intends to expand well beyond the traditional diplomatic spousal role of being a hostess and take a more hands-on and proactive approach. This includes blogging, Tweeting from her personal handle, @natalbrz, and posting photos from her travels on Facebook.")
  • The 2020 Hon drev Daniel Eks elitkonferens i Stockholm – blir Klarnas strategichef i USA (Di Digital, "your guide to digital business and tech from a Swedish perspective.") source includes biographical and career details but offers no WP:SECONDARY commentary.
  • The 2016 Natalia Brzezinski sätter Sverige och Brilliant Minds på världskartan (Breakit) source is an interview, with commentary, (e.g. "For those who are involved in the digital media world, or have visited one of the major tech events in Stockholm in recent years, Natalia Brzezinski is a familiar face and name.").
  • The 2014 »Jag har alltid blivit hårt pushad« (Fokus) source is an interview, with a translated title "I have always been pushed hard" and statements including "Symposium is not for marketing Spotify or any other partners. No one comes to tell about their new book. We just want to raise important issues and possibly Sweden as a country, she says."
  • The 2013 Natalia Brzezinski, '06 (University of Richmond) source is an alumni magazine, so not independent.
  • The 2017 Tech-pionjären Natalia Brzezinski (PLAZA) source is in Pressreader, and I haven't been able to copy and paste the text into Google Translate, but it appears to be a fashion magazine.
  • The 2019 Hemlig konferens med toppnamn på deltagarlistan (Sveriges Radio) source is another interview with her, related to "The Brilliant Minds Foundation is holding a star-studded conference in Stockholm this week."
  • I don't have full access to the 2017 Brzezinski: ”Trumps twittrande ett nytt lågvattenmärke” (Dagens Nyheter) source, but it appears to be a report on her response to Trump writing tweets about Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough.
  • I similarly have limited access to the 2011 Diplomatiskt spel banade vägen (Dagens Nyheter) source, but it is filed in the sports section, with a translated title "Diplomatic play paved the way" and includes, "The American ambassador's wife wondered if Stockholm Ice had room for a figure skater she knew.")
I think there is a need for more independent and WP:SECONDARY coverage to support WP:BASIC notability, because with so many sources focused on the promotion of the conference and her business, there appears to be a risk of becoming an extension of marketing efforts.

For future reference, WP:BLP1E is not for dead people.

  • Delete Notwithstanding the quackery about the conspiracy theory which seems to be pushed by a sole editor agitating on the talk page (and tried this nonsense on Jeffrey Dahmer; this new infobox in their userspace suggests they're definitely WP:NOTHERE any longer), the subject did nothing at all which warrants an article. This is a WP:NOTNEWS/WP:NOTMEMORIAL case. I also have concerns about the mention of the suspect in the article when they're still awaiting trial for what seems to be a tragic accident.
