Teleplan[edit]

Comment: As well as the former repair company now part of Reconext, there is a California-based ESL Technologies / Teleplan [1], presumably a residue of this 2000 acquisition, though that is not covered in the present article's "Milestones" section. AllyD (talk) 06:42, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Nom. A search turns up company profile returns and press releases. The article contains unacceptable (unsupported) flowery wording such as "one of the most important players in the German market" and "Teleplan concept was so successful" that screams promotional advertisement. -- Otr500 (talk) 09:41, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete after some searching I am unable to find any good news articles other than press release. Unless better news provided, it does not satisfy notability. Zeddedm (talk) 17:13, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I couldn't find the level of coverage sufficient to meet WP:NCORP. Jacona (talk) 16:18, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I can't find any coverage. The icing on the cake is that this company actually doesn't even exist anymore. Teleplan and Cover Wireless merged two years ago and formed a new company, Reconext (also pointed out above), and I can't find any reporting of the event, except this blog I never heard of reposting an obvious press release. [[2]] TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 06:48, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Following up on my comment above, the text and available coverage of the former Griesheim / Schiphol based Teleplan firm indicates a servicing company going about its business, with routine coverage; the available coverage of the Sacramento-based operation is local coverage relating to layoffs, nor am I seeing anything to indicate that Reconext is sufficiently noted to merit a rename and redirect. Overall, fails WP:NCORP. AllyD (talk) 12:44, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to List of Marvel Comics characters: F. It would help the closer if participants didn't suggest redirecting to another redirect.

For me, redirects show up as a different color so you know immediately that the redirect target suggested wasn't appropriate. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:03, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep Has some sourcing, nothing extensive. The 60-6 award (I think it was) isn't notable, but he has enough coverage for GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 04:24, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A player who hasn't made it out of the lower minor leagues isn't going to get much notice. Clarityfiend (talk) 11:53, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - It's pretty tough to navigate through Google results looking for sources about this guy because most if not all baseball prospects from the last five years appear to share the same name, but there is quite a bit of coverage about him from independent sourcesV available: [3][4][5][6][7][8]. I think this adds up to a fairly uncontroversial GNG pass. Hatman31 (talk) 21:55, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was Merge into single article. There is clear consensus that only a single list of characters is appropriate. Which title that should exist under ought to be determined via talk page discussion, as there is no consensus here. To the unfamiliar observer, this title appears to be the logical one to keep; however, it may be there is nuance here I am missing. Vanamonde (Talk) 02:39, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of Neighbours characters[edit]

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

Surplus to requirements now series has ended, per consensus at Talk:List of regular Neighbours characters#Moving the article. Content has already been merged to List of regular Neighbours characters in its entirety, and project links altered accordingly (and stablisised in their new form). U-Mos (talk) 22:27, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge (or redirect?) No need to keep both List of Neighbours characters and List of regular Neighbours characters, as suggested, they can be merged. Deathlibrarian (talk) 07:35, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge List of regular Neighbours characters and Recurring characters of Neighbours into this one. It's rather ridcolous we ended up with three articles on pretty much the same topic. Note that unreferenced content can be just deleted (per WP:V), so size should not be much of an issue. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:24, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Merge into Finale (Neighbours) There are four articles that are relevant to this discussion. (1) List of regular Neighbours characters, (2) Recurring characters of Neighbours, (3) Finale (Neighbours), (4) List of Neighbours characters. The fourth article List of Neighbours characters had a reason to exist when Neighbours was still on air, as it had information about "current", "upcoming" and "departing" characters. However, now that Neighbours is no longer on air, the article has only two sections: (1) "Regular characters" who appeared in the finale and (2) "Recurring and guest characters" who appeared in the finale. However most of this information can be found (or could/should be found) in the Finale (Neighbours) article. Therefore all that needs to happen now is to ensure that the Finale (Neighbours) contains the entire list. Chrisclear (talk) 10:20, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Surely the list of regular Neighbours characters should be merged into this one? 159.196.100.171 (talk) 01:56, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment What you are proposing seems (to me) to be something that is a separate discussion to whether this article (List of Neighbours characters) should be deleted or not. Your proposal could be handled by a discussion on the relevant talk page(s) after this Wikipedia:Articles for deletion discussion is closed. Chrisclear (talk) 07:55, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep if everything is already merged, somewhere, then this should be a simple talk-page redirect discussion, in which case this would be kept under the redirect for attribution purposes. If an identical article/list exists and that presence is the basis for deletion of this article/list, then that should be a CSD-G6. In either case, an AfD discussion is clearly not appropriate. Jclemens (talk) 01:18, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Merge into either, or both of, List of regular Neighbours characters and Finale (Neighbours). And I think that a summary of this article would sit well within the Finale Neighbours article. Rillington (talk) 13:28, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nadir Ali[edit]

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

Pakistani prank YouTuber with more than 3 million subscribers. The only non-trivial coverage is about him having to pay some money because he apparently didn't pay his taxes (see [9] for example). BilletsMauves (talk) 16:54, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete nothing notable found, youtubers generally aren't notable here, being a tax fraud (or not) isn't notable. Only sources are listings of him appearing at various functions. Oaktree b (talk) 04:35, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like it may be a weak keep. He has a significant amount of coverage, even outside of Pakistan: for example, in a fairly large, English language UAE-based newspaper, and in Pakistan's largest newspaper. Tax evasion may not be enough to meet notability requirements, but the fact that his case got national and international attention indicates notability. He was also listed in another national newspaper's "Top 5 male social media celebrities of 2017" and his following has grown substantially since then. This is what I found in English coverage; I did not even look at Urdu coverage, of which there is surely much more.

Disinformation (album)[edit]

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

I don't think the album itself meets notability criteria from WP:NALBUM. While the sources in the article might cover the band or artists themselves, there is minimal significant coverage for the album itself. Tow (talk) 21:36, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This was recently closed as a no consensus—in the previous AfD, you eventually wrote that "I feel a redirect is the ideal solution for this case." So why didn't you try redirecting now? Caro7200 (talk) 21:48, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, my understanding was there was no consensus for either delete or redirect. Please advise if I could have redirected myself. Tow (talk) 02:07, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tow, I think so, although I confess that I don't have the entirety of AfD policy committed to memory. I wouldn't have challenged your mere redirect, as that retains the edit history. Caro7200 (talk) 20:34, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dean Finch[edit]

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

Doesn't pass WP:NBIO. All sources are either of dubious intellectual independence, do not provide in-depth biographical coverage, or both. Ovinus (talk) 20:55, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Editors should not be nominating articles for deletion unless they are familiar with WP:BEFORE, and make a modicum of effort to see what might not be in the article. The most cursory search for "Dean Finch Persimmon" shows several quality sources, as does "Dean Finch National Express". He is the CEO of a FTSE100 company and was the CEO of a FTSE250 one for ten years. Such people are almost always notable. Edwardx (talk) 21:18, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Edwardx: I did conduct a BEFORE search, and could not find reliable articles which are both intellectually independent (e.g., by not being mostly based on interviews) and provide in-depth biographical (i.e., not focused on the company) coverage, as required for notability. If you could give some convincing examples of that, I will withdraw this nomination. As to "such people are almost always notable", notability is not inherited and I'm not sure I agree. Ovinus (talk) 21:20, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Edwardx which would you say are the most significant independant sources to show notablity? Being CEO of any company doesn't make someone automatically notable. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:04, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2022 Tipperary Senior Football Championship[edit]

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

2022 Tipperary Senior Football Championship

Article about a future Gaelic football tournament that is too soon and does not satisfy event notability guidelines. The one reference is not about the upcoming competition but about the 2021 championship match. There is no significant coverage because there is no documented coverage, which is in turn because the event is in the future.

An article was created in article space and moved to draft space. A stub was then created again in article space. An unregistered editor then copy-pasted the schedule from the draft to the article, which would cause attribution problems if the article were worth keeping, but it is not. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:21, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Events, Sports, and Ireland. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:21, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tournament is starting in the next day or so, reference to fixtures now added.

Speedy keep: We have loads of future sports events here (2036 Summer Olympics, anyone?) so that's not a problem. Also, we have articles on the previous 8 seasons of this competition at Category:Tipperary Senior Football Championship. As it turns out, it has just started, with Upperchurch-Drombane GAA defeating Cahir GAA today. The source calls it the "FBD Insurance county senior football championship" (not to be confused with the FBD Insurance League). I think the nominator should withdraw.

Delete This is a war and there are constant and numerous artillery strikes on cities, and will continue to be (unfortunatley). I think if the arty attack is notable because of particular destruction, then it may warrant its own article. Deathlibrarian (talk) 00:16, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This was committed two months after the end of the Battle of Kharkiv. If it is to be merged into something, we need an article about the artillery and bombing campaign against Ukrainian cities, a main article for the euphemistically misnamed category:Attacks on buildings and structures in Ukraine (as if destroying residential buildings was about infrastructure and not people). —Michael Z. 13:20, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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

Pretty much textbook WP:OR and/or WP:SYNTH, take your pick. Sources clubbed together to make an impressive looking list of references where none of them actually discuss in any meaningful way the existence of a unique and differentiated cuisine of Chittagong. If you're going to argue the existence of a cuisine to one city in the subcontinent, I'd suggest maybe avoiding the claim of biryani and chickpeas as uniquely famous and traditional...

Comment The term "Chittagonian cuisine" doesn’t exist (in both English and Bengali). We should rename it to "Cuisine in Chittagong". Mehedi Abedin 11:50, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This looks like synth/OR to me. I don't see any indication there is a separate cuisine of Chittagong. This seems to be more a list of dishes popular there, most of which are common dishes in all of Bangladesh or the global region? valereee (talk) 16:13, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep All curries might seem the same, but that is not the case. The cuisine of Chittagong is different in many ways from the rest of Bangladesh and similar in others. Take, for example, Cuisine of Hawaii similar to other states but different. English sources do discuss it; take Mezban, Coastal cuisines of Bangladesh, A mouthful of Chittagong, Bamboo shoot recipes from the Chittagong Hill Tracts and 3-day food festival kicks off in Ctg. The article is in pretty bad shape, but it can be improved. There is scope for expansion.Vinegarymass911 (talk) 03:00, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This is eerily similar to the Sylheti cuisine article, which also seems to just list popular dishes in Sylhet and the impact that people from Sylhet have had in the food industry. I think both articles should be deleted. UserNumber (talk) 15:47, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. There is far more extensive sourcing on Hawaiian food as a class than what is currently in this article, much of which seems to be SYNTHy or weak, touristy style content as it stands.

Ada Aharoni[edit]

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

BLP is grossly under-sourced, and what citation there is is largely derived from primary interviews or works. No single clear case for notability is evident. It is claimed that she was a professor at Pennsylvania, but this is unsourced and it is unclear if this was a fully tenured position. Her sociological work has only been cited in local media, and it is also unclear if her body of poetry is influential. Added to which which is the concern raised in September 2020 that a major contributor may have had a close connection with its subject. Iskandar323 (talk) 11:32, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm going to sit on the fence for now, but there is significant evidence in book sources that her poetry has been widely referenced, quoted and anthologised in books as well as peer reviewed journals. The issue here appears to be that much of that history is pre-internet, and that many of these sources remain to be digitised. You'll find her in books like "The Dispersion of Egyptian Jewry: Culture, Politics, and the Formation of a Modern Diaspora (Volume 11) (Contraversions: Critical Studies in Jewish Literature, Culture, and Society)" - pretty esoteric stuff, but there's an awful lot of it out there, including many contributions to publications like "PEACE STUDIES, PUBLIC POLICY AND GLOBAL SECURITY" - her poetry is discussed and analysed in The Language of Peace - Communicating to Create Harmony and so on and so on. It's not three whambam past GNG and looking back at the nom with a raspberry, but it's food for thought. There's a lot out there and what's there speaks to there being more. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:17, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The page, as it stands, certainly already speaks to a certain volume of coverage - what is unclear to me at this point is if there is sufficient quality and reliability of coverage. I see a lot of marginal sources, including peace stuff that could well be more related to the subject's leadership role in the organizations that they themselves founded and clearly somewhat self-promotional career than a reflection of impact in the field of sociology and conflict studies. The peer-reviewed journal above is another example of a slightly marginal-looking source - not sure how to view 'Langlit', but it seems absent from the likes of jstor. Iskandar323 (talk) 12:47, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Found it here at Academia.edu - it's a 'thing'. But we don't disagree - there's a lot of stuff, but is it the stuff of notability? I'm unsure, to be honest. One issue is date - pre-internet papers, books etc. I'm usually able to be a little more decisive. Honest! Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 13:30, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, noted author and poet winning notable prizes, see national library entry. She's a notable enough that a book have been written and translated from Arabic (مفهوم السلام في شعر عادا أهاروني) on her work. She is also analyzed in the article: Afrangiya Yahudiya - the literary-documentary oeuvre of Ada Aharoni on the twentieth-century Exodus in the מחקרי ירושלים בספרות עברית journal. I agree the articles on the English Wikipedia and Hebrew Wikipedia could be improved with better citations. There are also articles in Arabic and Egyptian Arabic Wikipedias that could also probably be improved.Researcher (Hebrew: חוקרת) (talk) 13:35, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Tipped me over the edge, there. The book alone, together with the anthologies and other evidence of papers that haven't made it into digitalisation/the Internet, speak of a notable person.

Article on design company that is written like an advertisement, but Wikipedia is not for advertisements. Naïve Google search shows that the company exists, and that the company advertises online, and finds plenty of non-independent coverage. However, the article does not provide evidence of independent secondary significant coverage. The article has been reference-bombed, so that a check of the references for whether they are independent, secondary, and significant is not feasible. The author, who has not responded to a request to declare any conflict of interest, seems to have dumped this into article space to ask Wikipedia to find the needle of independent significant coverage in the haystack of advertising. This article does not satisfy corporate notability, and it isn't our responsibility to rewrite it. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:13, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this article as I don't see any specific notability about this institution. There are many newspapers.com hits for "life christian school", however it seems there are many others by the same name in different states, many prefixed with "new" but their existence doesn't imply notability. There are only ~10 newspapers hits by this school name in Oregon media and non imply notability. May be a future possibility for an article about the family of schools by this name, if deemed notable, but I see nothing sufficient on this particular school.

@StAnselm: I am not able to access the first two links you provide due to geographical limitations. The latter two just mention some minor sports achievement in passing, among many other schools and do not constitute WP:SIGCOV.

LeGrand R. Curtis Jr.[edit]

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

Non-notable individual associated with the LDS Church. A WP:BEFORE brings up only WP:ROUTINE passing mentions, which seems to be what the majority of the sources are - indirect mentions of Curtis, but not actually about him and is very WP:REFBOMB-like. Therefore, these sources are lacking WP:SIGCOV for a BLP. Short bios by the Church don't really advance notability either. Overall, fails WP:GNG.

Redirect to Church Historian and Recorder. As Church Historian, Curtis is one of the most important officials of the LDS Church outside of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. He's also ex officio, but I think also in reality, the head of the The Joseph Smith Papers project, which is of great scholarly importance to historians of American religion even outside the LDS Church.[16] This makes his name a very plausible search/inquiry term. When the article was previously deleted, he had not yet been named Church Historian. Jahaza (talk) 00:41, 20 July 2022 (UTC) (updated Jahaza (talk) 00:44, 20 July 2022 (UTC))[reply]

Redirect per above. I agree that most mentions are passing. He's only been in since 2019, so perhaps substantial coverage will appear in time. Caro7200 (talk) 21:01, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I agree with the rationale offered by FormalDude, unless the nominator contends that KSL and the Deseret News are not sufficiently significant, reliable, or independent sources, which is not directly germaine or relevant to this discussion. It is also worth noting that work is underway to establish specific notability standards and guidelines foe articles about the Latter Day Saint movement, including for top leaders of the Church, consistent with Wikipedia policy. It strikesme as somewhat discourteous and disingenuous by Wikipedia standards to actively single out articles and topics about the movement for deletion while discussions about finding the best policy-based solutions to the longstanding issue are actively underway. --Jgstokes (talk) 23:23, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I use Deseret News often for music articles and think it's fine. KSL? Not sure. Neither are wholly independent. The biggest problem is that the cited sources don't offer significant and substantial information about Curtis himself; I also didn't find much in ProQuest (A lot of "Curtis returned from Liberia..." stuff). There's nothing wrong with being merely accomplished rather than notable in the encyclopedic sense... I'm an "inclusionist" (shudder), so always happy if someone can find better coverage. Caro7200 (talk) 00:05, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple sources make credible claims of significance, such as detailing his history within the church and various high-level positions that he has held. ––FormalDude talk 21:23, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No substantive independent sourcing. The Deseret News is owned by the Mormon Church (through holding companies) and is obviously not an independent s source about church officials. Other coverage simply reports that he issued press releases for the church, saying little or nothing about the subject himself. Just a flack with a grandiose title -- Vivian 166.149.176.27 (talk) 16:32, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Deseret News is owned by a church holding company, but it has editorial control over what it publishes and therefore consensus is that it is independent for topics about the LDS Church. ––FormalDude talk 21:20, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, that doesn't appear to be exactly the case--or this is out of date. Note that I argued for a redirect, not a delete, but another look at sources, both cited and not, don't add up to enough for me. Again, happy to review secondary sources that are actually about Curtis. Caro7200 (talk) 21:56, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Church Historian and Recorder. Even if we accept for sake of argument that the Deseret News is editorially independent of the LDS Church, the sources still don't add up to notability under the GNG/WP:BASIC. I've reviewed the sources cited in the article as well as others, and although they contain quotes from Curtis about various issues, they don't discuss him in the depth needed to qualify as sigcov. There isn't much more here than the occasional "Elder Curtis said", and that is neither independent of Curtis nor coverage that "addresses the topic directly and in detail". I agree that a redirect to the Church Historian and Recorder article, where he's listed, is a reasonable alternative to deletion. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 07:27, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I have perused the talk page discussion in which the article's creator, Tonytt, is absolutely working in good faith and wants to present valid info on this band. Tonytt has the stance of a historian, tracking down far-flung and obscure snippets of information to compile a story of an early band in which several interesting people got started. Unfortunately, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia in which people/things must qualify for inclusion, and while some members of The Institution may qualify for things they did later, the band itself does not. They were purely local with little apparent influence at the time, and even the hardcopy books mentioned at Tonytt's talk page are about other things like TV shows on which the band briefly appeared. This is all a fascinating historical exercise, which can spruce up fansites and maybe even a feature magazine article somewhere, but it is not appropriate for Wikipedia. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:01, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the thoughtful comments. Take a look at the Steel Mill entry. For much of their early existence there is very little solid sourcing, instead mostly there are fan sites such as brucebase, dead entries, tribute sites like Garry's Corner, mentions from an autobiography (an excellent one) by Bruce Springsteen who was a member of Steel Mill, making the reference self-sourced. To me, that is not crucial. What is most important about Steel Mill is the fact the several of its members went on to considerable success, including Bruce, Steve Van Zandt, Danny Federici, and that they opened for several well-known groups (which is apparently poorly sourced in the Steel Mill wikipedia entry), not that they were a significant or well-known band at the time, though there was a nice review of one performance in a local paper, as there were short, complimentary words in a letter in a local paper for The Institution. (Note that Steel Mill also played at a Thanksgiving event in 1970 with The Institution, mentioned on their tribute site in a flyer, and Steel Mill's presence on a fan chronology site.)

I strongly believe that there should be a Wikipedia entry for Steel Mill, to show how Bruce and the others got started, no matter how obscure these early groups were. They are an important part of rock history, as is the usually obscure role they played as an opening act. I also believe that The Institution played a similar, but less prominent role, giving a start to people like Joey Kramer, Rickie Rackin, J. Howard Duff, and Philip Rubin. I am fond of outsiders and underdogs, but feel that The Institution was more than this, playing a significant role in the rough and tumble, and usually obscure, early days of garage bands in New Jersey, opening for well known groups, appearing on important television shows like Clay Cole's and Zacherly's, and nurturing key individuals, a couple of whom went on to considerably more prominence than most who were part of this scene. At the same time, I understand that Wikipedia has its rules and standards. I believe that in this instance, the difficulty of documentation from this era (for Steel Mill, The Institution, and many others bands), and the web of connections and verifiability of key individuals who were shaped by playing in this band, should be both important and mitigating factors when considering the deletion of this entry.

Thanks again for your patience in putting up with listening to my point of view on this. I think that is an important entry, if not a standard one, and hope that it will not be deleted from Wikipedia. It was an important part of this early history (at least in New Jersey and clubs in NYC) and will, unfortunately, disappear from history without such an entry on Wikipedia. I first ran across modern interest in the band around 2015 on a website called 60srockband.com. That site is now gone. Many of the links and sites on the Steel Mill site are gone. This history is disappearing. Wikipedia can, and should, help save it. Tonytt (talk) 03:37, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:OTHERSTUFF, as the weaknesses of the Steel Mill article are not relevant for our current discussion about whether The Institution is notable. If the Steel Mill article needs improvement, or even if it deserves to be deleted, that can be handled as a separate matter by Wikipedia's volunteers. Once again, I think you are doing very interesting historical research, but you're putting it in an inappropriate forum. There is surely an interested readership for what you have found on The Institution, so consider submitting to NJ history publications or the like. Best regards, ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:08, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I won't get involved in the question of whether the article should be retained or deleted. Regardless of the outcome of this discussion, I applaud Tonytt for his interest, passion, and diligence--he should definitely write a book. I think that some of the material in this article, provided reliable sources can be found, could be used as background info. in articles about some of the later well-known acts whose members played in the Institution. And, if some of the Institution's recordings could find official release, that would be very helpful for establishing notability down the road. Garagepunk66 (talk) 06:50, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. In the context of this AfD, and the similar Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Francois Anglade, it is worth noting that the content of both pages is practically the same. See: compare 1102118119 to 1101680611. If both subjects are notable for effectively the same things (and their association with the same topic), then why do we need separate articles for either/both of them?

The result was No result. Given how radically the article has changed during this AfD, many of the comments are not applicable any more, and as such there is no valid result to be obtained here (not even a "no consensus"; the discussion is simply irrelevant to determining the notability of the article as it stands).

Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis[edit]

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

A non-notable non-event. Entirely WP:SYNTH/WP:OR; the article takes from multiple sources to reach a conclusion that none of the sources say. No sources specifically describing this hypothetical exist. Curbon7 (talk) 15:27, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. As of now there hasn't been much more than the usual Chinese air drills inside Taiwan's ADIZ and bellicose rhetoric. As it has already been said, this seems to be a case of WP:TOOSOON.

KEEP per DUH, and btw WP:Competence is required

In a NOTABLE and widely reported actual EVENT in 2021, multiple PRC military planes entered the ROC's ADIZ. Therefore I have expanded the scope of the article accordingly, and we should ignore the opinions of editors ignorant of this history or unwilling to account for it. Jaredscribe (talk) 01:53, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The problem with the article was not lack of notability. The problem was it was biased toward WP:Recentism and Anglo-Americanism. This can be corrected. Jaredscribe (talk) 02:00, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Republic of China's ADIZ is way bigger than its sovereign airspace, and some parts of it are situated over mainland China. Chinese "intrusions" in Taiwan's ADIZ are routine, and often take place several times a week. There have been hundreds of them, if not thousands, in the past years, and this did not start in 2021. While this ongoing series of ADIZ "violations" may be notable, related copy-pasted additions in the article really don't show that these sparked any kind of crisis. Interestingly, even though Chinese incursions in Taiwan's ADIZ are frequently reported even in mainstream media, these almost always fail to explain what an ADIZ actually is (i.e. not necessarily sovereign national airspace). Lastly, please keep it down with the caps and personal attacks. Thanks in advance. BilletsMauves^€500 20:51, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@AdrianHObradors - Please indicate your original vote as rescinded, as I've done for my own. Thanks. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 10:56, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete (Modify)~~ (vote rescinded, re-vote listed lower down the page) - The information in this article is not necessarily non-notable in and of itself, but the conclusions that editors originally came to when formulating the nascent title "Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis" were 100% original research. The first three Taiwan Strait crises are well recorded and researched, in large part due to having occurred a long time ago. Overall, there was no way that this article could stand with its former title. With its current title, it's a bit more acceptable, although there are still various issues with the actual content that's inside of the article. For example, why is Syria's opinion on the altercation so important, aside from simply being a puppet of Russia? (as we can see from Syria's recognition of the Russian breakaway republics in the Donbas). The only relevant players should be other East Asian nations and various world powers (either superpower, great power, or middle power). A third world country like Syria that is located far away from the conflict zone has no weight in this conversation, especially since there are only something like six countries' opinions listed at the moment. On the other hand, North Korea's opinion is obviously acceptable given how relevant they are to Taiwan (i.e. historical relations, geographic proximity, etc.). Jargo Nautilus (talk) 12:39, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I've gone ahead and removed Syria from the "international response" section of the article for the reasons that I outlined above. The source that was used to support Syria's position was state media. In my opinion, it is not Wikipedia's job to literally just spread propaganda with an asterisk* (*this is state media). If it's state media and it's coming from some random third world country, then it probably has no genuine relevance to the situation at hand. Syria trying to be relevant doesn't mean we have to facilitate their agenda. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 12:50, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Jargo Nautilus:Huh? Why would you arbitrarily consider another government's stance on this matter as "irrelevant"? Because they're "third world"? Because they support the bigger country? This is a globally significant event so any government's stance would be notable, it's not the role of Wikipedia to hide or pre-filter this kind of voices (see WP:DUE), if it is by state media then label it so; most government statements and stances will be issued by state media anyway. You can separate views of countries into categories such as "regional"/"non-regional" or "support"/"neutral"/"oppose" etc and let the reader decide what to do with the information. No News ! 15:24, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with the notion that this is a globally significant event. That's original research. Indeed, at the moment, I would consider this event to be only regionally significant. And, going by that definition, Syria isn't located in the region, nor is Syria really a world player in geopolitics, at least nowhere comparable to countries like France, the United States, or even nearby (to Syria) Israel. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 16:38, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Think about it this way. If we were to go by your definition of "globally significant event", we would have to list the opinions of around 200 different countries in order to be truly fair. Do you honestly think we need that many opinions in this article? Just a few opinions from the most important players would suffice. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 16:40, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. When you say "the bigger country", I presume you mean China. But I have to disagree with that notion, because this incident isn't a two-way dispute. Instead, it's a three-way dispute between China, Taiwan, and the United States. And, while China is definitely a lot bigger than Taiwan, it's not really all that much bigger than the United States. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 16:43, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'd suggest merging this with 2022 visit by Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan, though I'm not sure whether the content should be moved there or here. Either way, the original title wasn't good but the current one is ok. ansh.666 16:05, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not a bad idea. That article has issues of its own. Both of these articles are Frankenstein's monsters at the moment. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 16:39, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. WP:NEVENT states that events are very likely to be notable if they have widespread (national or international) impact and were very widely covered in diverse sources. This is an international incident affecting the national security situations of China, Taiwan, and Japan. Reuters believes that this event is likely to have broad impact in Japan, as it serves to bolster public support for a military build-up aimed at defence, which is certainly something that is of international importance. It's also drawn response from ASEAN, which bolsters the fact that these drills are internationally significant. These drills have also resulted in some actions that are extremely rare, such as Chinese fighters and naval vessels crossing the median line between China and Taiwan, while missiles flew over the island. There were also significant disruptions in international shipping and air travel caused by the drills. Additionally, these drills have also been covered by a broad swath of reliable sources in-depth, including CNN, Al Jazeera, The Wall Street Journal, AP, Axios, Politico EU, AFP (via NDTV), The New York Times, RFA, VoA, Taipei Times, The Independent, India dot com, BBC News, NHK, etc.
The concerns relating to the old title of the page (Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis) seem to have been resolved by the page move to a much better title (2022 Chinese military exercises around Taiwan), so any sort of deletion rationale based on the title alone should be WP:DISCARDed. And, while this was done ostensibly in response to Speaker Pelosi's visit to the island, I think that the drills can be covered better in a standalone page than in a section on the page on Pelosi's visit. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 18:06, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I will note that WP:DEL-CONTENT states that [i]f editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. We're in a situation where editing has changed the page from a synth/or title and presentation of events into one where the coverage is largely of the event and it's devoid of any mention of a "Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis" as of this revision, so it does look like editing actually can improve the page from here on out. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 18:33, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge to 2022 visit by Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan I'm just not seeing any reliable sources which actually say that a Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis exists, thats the bare minimum and we don't have it.

Probably more of a WP:TOOSOON than CRYSTAL but the SYNTH is fairly clear. Most of the sources and article is about Nancy Pelosi's Taiwan visit or prior events with no mention of the August military exercises - including nearly all the sources in the Escalation of tensions and International response sections. From a quick count a third of all sources are from before 2 August and even more are not about the military exercises.

Strong Keep The GNG has been far and away surpassed here, I don't see the issues with SYNTH. "Fourth Taiwan Strait crisis" was not an appropriate title, but since the page has been moved that vacates all the reasonable SYNTH and poor sourcing concerns. I also oppose a merge to 2022 US Congressional Delegation visit to Taiwan, since that article is already very bloated and doesn't need the detailed day-by-day military analysis that is bound to spring up here. The two are also separate events with separate coverage; the military exercises may have been caused by Pelosi's visit, but she's already long gone. Maybe (and this part is TOOSOON) if it is determined by RSes at some point in the future that this is a "Fourth Taiwan Strait crisis", then all the different parts can be merged into such an article, but until then I see such merges as SYNTH and TOOSOON.

Qiushufang I don't understand these arguments. Toosoon and crystal? How? AdrianHObradors (talk) 08:44, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The Crystal element plays in here because news outlets are describing this altercation as a "potential crisis" rather than as a full-fledged fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis. With that being said, the info is definitely notable enough to remain as a standalone article, but we just have to be very careful about how we classify the information until further developments are made in the real world. Personally, I'm not even sure that I agree with the way that this article seems to almost be presented as a direct military conflict (like a skirmish or a battle). So far, no actual fighting has taken place. It's all "sabre-rattling" at the moment, albeit with a blockade and military exercises by China against Taiwan thrown in.

Yes, but they still present the altercation as a military conflict with that info-box. This is a detail that I disagree with since I don't think the altercation qualifies as a military conflict at the moment. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 10:48, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

From what I can tell, the articles that you linked seem to be describing the altercation as a "potential crisis" rather than a definitive fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 10:22, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep (under the new less peackock title). The event seems notable given the coverage, and is ongoing. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:48, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and Modify - UPDATE: I've changed my vote from "Delete (Modify)" to "Keep and Modify". The info is definitely notable, there's no question about it. The main issue was with the way that the information was being presented. Clearly, that issue has been fixed in large part by changing the title. HOWEVER, I also believe that the info-box is still problematic because it presents this altercation as a military conflict even though no actual fighting has taken place yet. For now, the altercation can only be described as "sabre-rattling", albeit with an illegal naval blockade by China around Taiwan thrown in. For now, it is a case of CRYSTAL to regard this as an actual military conflict, although the situation on the ground may change in the coming days. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 10:37, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep the topic is changed to different content. The event seems notable given the coverage passes WP:GNG. Taung Tan (talk) 07:44, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Snowclose. The article in its current state is unrecognizable compared to its incarnation at the time this AfD was initiated. Additionally, during this discussion, the article was preemptively redirected from Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis (a hypothetical name for a hypothetical military conflict) to 2022 Chinese military exercises around Taiwan a notable non-conflict which is now documented as having occurred. Prior delete arguments are simply moot. If anyone wants to argue that 2022 Chinese military exercises around Taiwan should be deleted per WP:NOTNEWS that should be a separate discussion. –RoxySaunders 🏳️‍⚧️ (💬 • 📝) 08:04, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – The teams only clash when they meet in international club tournaments, a total of 17 matches including both ends of multiple two-legged ties over the course of nearly six decades. The prose states that the allegedly rivalry began in the early 2000s, whereas the table lists five matches from the 20th Century. This leaves a total of 12 matches over six Champions League competitions during the past two decades. The understood definition of a sports rivalry requires regular meetings between the teams – e.g. the Manchester derby – but WP:NRIVALRY requires that coverage of any rivalry meet WP:GNG – which is why there is no article on the croquet rivalry between the United States Naval Academy and St. John's College despite it being an annual competition.

Delete In my opinion, there is greater rivalry between the women's teams of these clubs than between the men's. I agree with the point made above that a rivalry requires seasonal meetings between the two teams and, I think, a degree of proximity as in Liverpool versus either of the Manchester clubs. Chelsea v Barcelona matches are luck of the draw encounters.

Merge to Narnia (world)#Cosmology - The basics of what it is, is already covered fairly well there, but could stand to have some of the information and sources moved over.

Merge per all. Article is mostly WP:PLOT summary, which is what Wikipedia articles are WP:NOT. There isn't WP:SIGCOV of how this has been received outside of the fiction, and agree that the in-universe details are better presented in context. Shooterwalker (talk) 00:51, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The topic and its significance is discussed in a number of secondary sources. I think WP:GNG/WP:WHYN could be fullfilled with the this article (has just short of a page) and this one (has a several-page section on the topic). Deletion is not clean-up, so with the help of this secondary sources WP:NOT is no longer an issue. WP:NOPAGE may apply, which could have been evaluated in a merge discussion. But stating broadly "does not meet the WP:GNG as there isn't significant coverage that is more than a trivial mention" indicates in this case that no WP:BEFORE search was done; when notability/lack of sources is the main argument, this in my view is a WP:Disruptive misuse of the WP:Deletion process.

Merge to Narnia (world)#Cosmology. Even if the subject is technically notable, notability is a necessary but not sufficient criterium for inclusion. Another consideration is editorial in nature: it is unhelpful to readers and invites the addition of excessive detail to cover a (relatively minor) element of a (relatively unimportant) fictional work in its own article. Such content is better presented in the context of an article about the work. Sandstein 13:06, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep As an AfD outcome. While merging is reasonable, independent notability has been demonstrated so any merger should be a merge discussion, rather than an enforced AfD outcome. Jclemens (talk) 04:34, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment from nominator the point of Wikipedia is to build WP:CONSENSUS. Considering that every !vote here expressed that a merge is a reasonable outcome as per WP:NOPAGE, I am willing to join the WP:CONSENSUS to resolve this issue.

As a tangent, Wikipedia is WP:NOTBUREAUCRACY. "Disagreements are resolved through consensus-based discussion, not by tightly sticking to rules and procedures. ... A procedural error made in a proposal or request is not grounds for rejecting that proposal or request." I don't think this AFD was made in error, and merger is a valid outcome given that this topic isn't notable separate from existing articles. But even that aside, it's WP:DISRUPTIVE to acknowledge a consensus around a reasonable solution, and still find some misinterpretation of procedure in order to prolong a dispute.

Keep. If you compare the current live article and the one in drafts you'll see that they are very different. The published one has been translated from the Finnish Wikipedia article and it has many analyst reports used as a source (like HighKing and Jtbobwaysf wished in the previous deletion discussion).

        Cheers HighKing! How about checking the news by Yleisradio aka Finland's national public broadcasting company?

Comment I see the article has a live articles in Finnish and French wp versions. So we are talking about deleting the English translation. Most of the discussion above seems to relate to people not having access or maybe not being able to read the content. Seems to me we should hold off on delete and maybe put the Finish version to AFD first, and see if it passes (Finnish people and/or people that can read the language will be much more qualified to comment). If it passes Finnish AFD, then we know that we are more dealing with a translation issue and a tag for the English article would be more suitable. Let's not get too wrapped us in thinking the EN wikipedia is the 'correct' one, and maybe defer to the other languages first. For example I have seen EN versions of a CN article to be very weak, while the CN article is robust and fully built out. The Finnish article has 38 sources (and I cant read a single one of them), but some might be decent and pass NCORP. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 01:01, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well in Finnish Wikipedia "stock listed companies are usually notable" [29] and as there is so much media attention for this company there's no proper reason to start an AFD there. The article was created in 2015.Jjanhone (talk) 06:51, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I don't have perfect visibility to all the paywalled sources, but the coverage seems to be either standard announcements (e.g. [30] based on the headline) or PR pieces (e.g. [31]). I'd greatly appreciate if those proposing to keep would do something along the lines of WP:THREE, listing what they believe to be the 3-4 best sources together with descriptions of their length, depth and how independent they appear. Currently, I'm leaning delete. -Ljleppan (talk) 08:10, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers Ljleppan! Am I free to choose the best sources or should I prefer the ones you have access to? If so, which are those? If I choose the best ones, can you point me an example about how to describe them (lenght, depth and independence)?Jjanhone (talk) 10:09, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Chooosing the best sources might be difficult if I dont know the criteria. E.g. you said that this is "PR content" while I saw it as a journalist interviewing a CEO, making it original content, not just a press release puff. As it's not behind a paywall I invite others to judge it too. Jjanhone (talk) 10:36, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK, just to be clear. If the journalist simply repeats what the CEO said without adding any "Independent Content" (that is the journalist did not add *substantial* and *in-depth* opinion/commentary/fact checking/analysis) then that fails ORGIND. Sure, it might make it "original content" (in that those precise sequence of words may never have appeared in that particular order in the past) but unique is not the same as *independent*. Sorry for the emphasis, just trying to explain so that you should be able to understand, yourself, what "Independent Content" is. Basically, if it is information that was provided by the company (e.g. financials, PR, website, interview, quotes, etc) we exclude that content (for the purposes of establishing notability - that content can of course be used to support facts, etc, within the article). HighKing⁺⁺ 13:32, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Paywalled is fine, if you give a good description of what the article is about, the tone, depth etc. W/r/t the Ilta-Sanomat piece, the content is wholly uncritical, and seems like it would be sourced solely from what a company rep would tell a journalist. Basically, regurgitating a bunch of press releases with a few quotes from the CEO thrown in. Ljleppan (talk) 06:24, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I tried to find analysis of Incap (searching for Incap + analysis). Here's what I found. Jjanhone (talk) 08:37, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Arvopaperi 5th May 2022: Incap on ylisuorittunut epäsuositulla toimialalla komeasti – Asiakaspuoleen sisältyy kuitenkin sitova riski (Incap has outperformed handsomely in an unpopular industry - However, there is a binding risk on the client side). Lenght about 2,600 chars, mentions about Incap's biggest customer and how it has evolved. No sources mentioned, but the magazine is concentrated on stock companies. Contains critic.

A quote: "Incap's growth story comes with its own risks. Victron Energy, the company's largest customer, accounted for as much as 61% of its turnover last year. ... Although Incap's position as a subcontractor may be considered disadvantageous, customers do not easily change contract manufacturers. Incap's profitability comes from lower costs than its competitors."

Talouselämä 4th May 2007. Nyt kävi kyyti kylmäksi (Now the ride got cold). It's a review of the market, aka Electronics subcontractors in Finland in 2006: Elcoteq, Perlos, Scanfil, Elektrobit, Aspocomp, Incap, Cencorp. Lenght of the article: about 7,400 chars. 8 mentions for name Incap and the part telling about the company is about 1,000 chars.

A quote is telling the journalist is having own thoughts about what Incap should do - co-operate with another company: "In recent years, Incap has made good progress. Last year, it was the only decent performer in the analysis set. Unlike most companies in the group, Incap is not Nokia-dependent, but has a diverse customer base." "Together, Scanfil and Incap could be a strong player in the small series production of demanding industrial electronics. Both have already downsized in Finland and Scanfil in Belgium." "Scanfil is undergoing a generational change. There are signs of it in Incap too."

Kauppalehti 16 Sep 2019 Törkeästi noussut Incap jatkaa nousurallia? – Tavoitehintaa nostaneet analyytikot: "Arvostus ei täysin huomioi ketterää toimintamallia" (Will Incap, which has risen sharply, continue its upward rally? – Analysts who raised the target price: "The valuation does not fully take into account the agile operating model"). Lenght: about 3,500 chars. Two analytics from Inderes commenting the company.

A quote from the analysts: ""In our view, the current valuation of Incap does not fully reflect the competitive advantage and strong operational performance created by the company's lean and agile operating model." The analysts also say the relative discount to the share price remains "unjustifiably large"."

The above mentions sources have not been used as ref atm. Let me tell my favorites of the current refs. Jjanhone (talk) 09:00, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Talouselämä 19 May 2000 Incap löysi viimein itsensä (Incap finally found itself). Length: 3,000 chars. Summarizes the history and has a critical tone.

A quote tells that the writer has opinions: "Compared to other companies in the hot sector, Incap's share price has been sleepy, except for the February technopeak. Investors' reticence is explained by the mixed-use retailer's reputation and declining earnings. Incap's focus on capital goods has not helped either." "Grittiness flourishes in the CEO's review..." "Not surprisingly, the Incap board decided in early May to relieve Frey of his duties."

Tekniikka & Talous 19 Feb 2010 Intian ihme Incapin tapaan (Indian wonder like Incap). Lenght: 5,500 chars. Summarizes the history and tells e.g. about companies challenges.

A quote, interviewing Incap marketing manager Munipalli in India tells about the problems: "India is a land of opportunity, but there are plenty of problems too. Munipalli simplifies the dilemmas of the environment: "There are too many of us Indians, the infrastructure is all over the place and corruption is a bad problem."" Earlier in the article: "The biggest challenge is building the brand. The company is not a big player like Flextronics or Elcoteq, nor is it a small player focused on prototyping. Local customers need to be convinced of the quality of the service." Part of the history chapter, cannot say if this was taken from the website back in 2010 but I doubt: "The industry's transformation is illustrated by the multi-generational history of the trade union at Incap's now-closed Vuokatti plant. In December 1978, the people of the Sotkamo plant of the state-owned cathode-ray tube factory Valco organised themselves as electronics workers. After the fall of Valco, the activities continued at Finn-Valco, then at Valmet and, since 1983, at Elektrostep. The latter was merged into Incap Electronics in 1996. After the restructuring, what remained of the companies in many sectors in 1997 was Incap Electronics, a contract manufacturer of electronics, and Incap Furniture, a contract manufacturer of furniture. The parent company was listed on the stock exchange. Furniture manufacturing went its own way in 2002. A year ago, its entire staff was made redundant after the main shareholder Ikea stopped taking orders."

I've posted above what I hope will assist you in determining whether sources contain "Independent Content" (as per ORGIND) or not, since you appeared to be under the impression that a report on an interview provided by the CEO was "original content" and therefore OK for establishing notability. With that in mind, the descriptions you provide of various articles above fails to identify whether or not those articles contain "Independent Content" as per WP:ORGIND. For example, is the summary of the company history generic (e.g. same as website as other articles)? What exactly is the "critical tone" - does it have critical analysis/opinion that is in-depth? Where was the information on the company challenges sourced from (e.g. financial news? announcements?). These are the details that are required to satisfy other editors that the sources meet NCORP.

Very impressive looking article about a significant work of seven albums created around the theme of humanity. It's when we get to sourcing that the problems appear - the composer's website, Facebook, a blog, an enthusiast-run upload site and Apple Music.

Comment : He is just another college professor who has written some college books. By that reasoning, any professor at a university will be notable for a Wikipedia page.

Assessment of the Battle of Long Tan[edit]

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

This is really an essay, and indeed is structured as such. There's way too much compare and contrast of primary sources (admittedly cited in secondary works) This should be edited down and merged into the main article - I can't see any real reason why this specific battle should get a rather unusual "Assessment of " Unbh (talk) 03:49, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History, Military, Vietnam, and Australia. Unbh (talk) 03:49, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Battle of Long Tan is already a large page with a detailed Aftermath and assessment section (that this page largely repeats) for what was a minor and inconclusive 4 hour firefight. There is simply no justification for this page, nor for Order of battle for the Battle of Long Tan. The fact that the battle has WP:SIGCOV mainly in Australian sources doesn't justify 3 pages about it. No doubt Australian Milhist users will pile-on once again. Mztourist (talk) 09:20, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. If it is deleted then a lot of its content will probably need to be merged into the main article rather than deleted out of hand. That will take an editor who knows what they're talking about. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:06, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Battle of Long Tan. Apart from the more detailed "Assessment" section, there isn't much here that already isn't in the primary article. I don't see a compelling reason to warrant a separate article for these extra details. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 14:39, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Battle of Long Tan, what is not redundant and is RS sources, accordingly. Otherwise, is just a content fork (see WP:CFORK) and it is unnecessary for this page as a separate article. Kierzek (talk) 17:43, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with Merge out of same reasons. Geysirhead (talk) 05:57, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I already have constant complaints that Battle of Long Tan is too large, and you guys want to merge all this material into it? No. Just no. WP:SIZE is solidly against a major expansion of an article that already contains 95 K of readable prose. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a WP:CFORK. It is encouraged in circumstances like this. (WP:SPINOUT and WP:SPINOFF) I completely agree with Mztourist's contention that the Battle of Long Tan has attracted far too much attention, both in the literature and on Wikipedia (and the article gets around 500 page views per day with some huge spikes) and has become a poster child for the Matthew effect. There are many Vietnamese, American and even Australian actions in Vietnam that have received too little attention, and that doesn't seem likely to change any time soon, but we are not here to RIGHTGREATWRONGS. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:55, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- There isn't much of value in the assessment page that isn't already in the Aftermath section of the main page, so this is an unnecessary and overlong fork. Mztourist (talk) 02:49, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think I am with Hawk on this. This seems like a valid subarticle. If the main article was short, merge would make sense. As things stand, split was warranted. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:46, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Already argued before at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Assessment of the Battle of Long Tan. Discussion on talk page on the original article for the Battle of Long Tan, decided that article was too long and despite some culling, it was decided to split out the assessment section. Now for this article, it is well sourced by multiple reliable sources and clearly passes WP:SIGCOV. It probably does have disproportionate coverage but that is because of the relevant interest in the battle for New Zealand and Australia military.— NZFC^(talk)^(cont) 22:03, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- The fact that a page has been AFDed 2 years ago doesn't preclude another AFD. The main page is already vast and adequate to satisfy any reader, while the assessment page contains little that isn't already in the Aftermath section of the main page, so this is an unnecessary and overlong fork. Mztourist (talk) 02:49, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Consensus can change but I would like to know what the nominator thinks has changed. And what I'm seeing is that the main article gets 550 views per day, making it the 14th most popular article in Category:Battles and operations of the Vietnam War, and the assessment article gets 20 views per day, which is still above average for a Vietnam War article, indeed it ranks it the 120th most popular in the category, so it does seem that some readers are not satisfied with the main article alone. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:24, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - We have no way of knowing if those 20 Users view the page because they're not satisfied with the main page or just because its there. Using that same logic, 530 Users are satisfied with the main page and don't see the need for the Assessment page. I don't believe that [m]any of the 13 more popular Battles and operations of the Vietnam War pages even have separate assessment pages. Mztourist (talk) 07:23, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      - There are only seven actually; and I'm fairly certain that none of them have separate assessment pages. This still fals under WP:OTHERSTUFF. Just hope the 20 users a day are not from staff college. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 00:11, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        Otherstuff is as valid as 20 User views a day. Mztourist (talk) 07:38, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Mztourist: while I understand that already having a deletion discussion doesn't preclude discussing the article again, it was more to point out as Hawkeye7 said that I don't think anything has changed from the previous one and the reason it was kept then.— NZFC^(talk)^(cont) 05:14, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      - A User can test if consensus has changed after a reasonable time (2 years being more than reasonable), they don't need to explain why they think consensus has changed. Mztourist (talk) 07:23, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Merging all the relevant information would make the main article unwieldy. There's clearly a lot of in-depth analysis, which makes a separate article appropriate. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 23:58, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This is a fine example of an article spinoff. I would prefer a different article title, such as "Military analysis of..." as I believe that is more accurate to the contents. Ovinus (talk) 00:12, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Hawkeye7 and Ficaia. Cabrils (talk) 22:23, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with main article about the battle. This feels like extended and slightly ponderous duplication of what exists in the Aftermath section of the main Long Tan article. I understand the power of regional attraction to an article, but in the larger scheme of the war Long Tan was one battle among many. Intothat darkness 18:23, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Certainly too much detail to merge into the Battle of Long Tan page. If I was coming up with more comprehensive approach I would:(1) Rename this page to Aftermath of the Battle of Long Tan with extra information from the main Long Tan page, (2) trim the existing assessment section on the main Long Tan page, (3) trim down some of the content on this page that is covered by other pages and (4) look what else can be split from the main Long Tan page. Gusfriend (talk) 09:45, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Support keep, if it would trim or legitimately split content from the long main article that would be beneficial and it would not be redundant. It can be achieved by discussion and regular editing. Spudlace (talk) 23:36, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Because Mike Francis was the chairman of the Republican Party of Louisiana from 1994 until 2000, he is absolutely notable.--RekishiEJ (talk) 14:19, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Just because someone is a state party chair doesn't mean they're inherently notable, as neither WP:NPOL nor WP:POLOUTCOMES makes that distinction. In fact, POLOUTCOMES even says: "Leaders of major sub-national (state, province, prefecture, etc.) parties are usually deleted unless notability can be demonstrated for other reasons". Curbon7 (talk) 14:53, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Soft Keep: He was elected to a state office. I understand that it's not a statewide election or a legislative body so he's not automatically WP:NPOL, but being elected to a state office and being a former party chair seems enough establish notability to me. --TulsaPoliticsFan (talk) 18:37, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment being the chairman of an American state political party is not a claim to automatic notability as far as I am aware, I have seen numerous articles on such figures deleted previously. Devonian Wombat (talk) 02:16, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
