Subject does not meet WP:N or WP:NPOV. Multiple citations point to dead links. Self-promotional in tone and scope. Does not belong in an encyclopedia in its current form. Volcom95 (talk) 13:55, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep "Multiple citations point to dead links" is not a valid deletion rationale, as those links were once not dead and can likely be fixed. "Self-promotional" is also not a valid rationale, as that can be cleaned up. Nobody has raised why the previous "keep" deletion discussion for the article is currently invalid, as the studio got 2 articles in Wired from different people on different years and a mention in a newspaper. I can see someone arguing this is too little, but nobody has made that argument, simply stating it has no sources, which is false. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:27, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
None of the references meet WP:NCORP criteria for establishing notability and it doesn't appear that any exists. HighKing++ 14:26, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
While the references might be OK for supporting facts/infomation within an article, we have different guidelines for establishing whether or not a topic meets notability criteria and this relies on finding at least two references that meet those criteria. None of these references meet NCORP criteria. HighKing++ 14:26, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Since this is a company, WP:NCORP guidelines apply. I am unable to locate any deep or significant coverage with in-depth information on the company and containing independent content. While it is true that "dead links" is not a valid deletion rational, the absence of any links to references which meets the criteria for establishing notability is grounds for deletion. Topic fails WP:NCORP. In addition, the article appears to me to be an attempt for the author to try to get their own Wikipedia page. HighKing++ 14:23, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @HighKing: The article is quite old, written by an editor who doesn't have any apparent relationship, and only recently whitewashed by an apparent COI editor. Also see below for significant coverage I found. ~Anachronist (talk) 15:39, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep. I found several hits for "Malinche" on Wired (cannot link to search) that appear to have decent coverage, or at least more than trivial coverage (hard to tell when Wired quicly obscures the article with a subscription modal dialog). The cited PhD dissertation also goes into some detail. That is sufficient to establish notability. And there should be no question whatsoever that the Asbury Park Press piece constitutes significant coverage of the company. Here's a clip. Here's the continuation. Similar articles by the same author have been published in Des Moines Register and The Daily Journal, among others. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Response The Des Moines Register article relies *entirely* on an interview with Mr. Sherman. As per WP:SIRS, each reference used to establish notability of the company needs to meet all the criteria, so while this may be an in-depth piece and meet WP:CORPDEPTH, it fails WP:ORGIND as it contains no "Independent Content". The PhD dissertation provides a small summary and not enough to meet WP:CORPDEPTH. The criteria is not merely "decent coverage" or mentions or listings. HighKing++ 18:11, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: WP:NOTDIRECTORY. I'm sure the park exists thanks to the sources, but the sources are more about greater policy on parks in the city in general. I don't see what else we can say about this park other than it exists, which is not enough. Even a redirect WP:ATD-R seems like too much since there is no mention on the target page. I don't know what could go into the city article since the sources are really about the city policy than the park and don't say what might be important about it. - 2pou (talk) 19:41, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There's a paragraph about them here: Lawson, R., Norton, S., Gwartney, J. (2008). Economic Freedom of the World: 2008 Annual Report. Philippines: Cato Institute.
A brief mention here: Christensen, J. (2017). The Power of Economists Within the State. United States: Stanford University Press.
There's a full article about them here: https://norwaytoday.info/finance/civita-proposes-50-billion-state-cuts/
This academic paper mentions them 37 times https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/1467-9477.12184

  • Keep: it's not a clear-cut case, but the last item listed by CT seems to be significant coverage. Some of the other sources are not as substantial. However, the paragraph on Civita in The Power of Economists Within the State, albeit short, offers enough analysis for me to lift them over the threshold of WP:GNG.

  • Delete: Apparently defunct commercial software product, (formerly?) used in UK education sector (primarily secondary education). Looking at Google Books+Scholar, there are a modest number of discussions about it in reliable sources, but not a particularly large number, and all seem to be from 10–15 years ago. My overall impression is that while this is a real thing, and reliable sources have paid some attention to it, their attention has been insufficient in extent and durability to meet WP:GNG Mr248 (talk) 09:15, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. Although the article has over 40 citations, this is a case of refbombing. Virtually every citation is either: routine campaign coverage, a primary source, a non-WP:RS-compliant source (e.g. YouTube, LinkedIn, non-notable website), or trivial coverage of the subject. I did a WP:BEFORE search on multiple search engines and could not locate any significant coverage of the subject in sources that satisfy the notability guidelines.

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Politicians, Women, and New York. Sal2100 (talk) 22:25, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - per nom, and my searches (with both spellings of her name) online, and the WP library, including ProQuest. The source quality on ProQuest is better, but not in-depth, e.g "PARTY'S GOT GREEN Underdog enviros push for upset of Vallone" (New York Daily News, 2009), event announcements, general election coverage, her work in New Zealand, e.g. "Princess Leia triumphs over Darth Vader in STV test run" (The Dominion Post, 2002, quotes from her, e.g. "Lynne Serpe, the national campaign organiser for the Electoral Reform Coalition, said..."). 2015 commentary in The Week finds her 'worthy of notice', but overall there appears to be insufficient independent and reliable secondary support for notability at this time.

  • Delete. As always, people do not get Wikipedia articles just for running as candidates in elections they didn't win — the bar at WP:NPOL is holding a notable political office, not just running for one — but this demonstrates neither that she had preexisting notability for other reasons independent of an unsuccessful candidacy nor a credible reason why her candidacy was somehow more important than everybody else's candidacies.

Non-notable internet broadcasting application, appears to be written by someone involved in its development which would as such fail WP:COI. Reliable sources covering this software were not found upon a web search; only WP:SPS, the software producer's own website, and this very Wikipedia page.

  • Keep - a US high school that is 134 years old, and has won multiple state championships is notable. The world doesn't end at the end of Google. High school athletics in the US are significant socially. The fact that the sources being found are about athletics is irrelevant. I agree, transactional sources about single games generally don't speak to notability, but sources about a high school's athletics programs are NOT less significant than sources about academics or arts. AfD isn't for clean up. 174.212.229.100 (talk) 23:06, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Here is a multi-page feature in Sports Illustrated. Here is an in-depth article from National Public Radio. Here's an article from the panhandle about the integration timeframe. Here are some other articles [1] [2]. There are literally hundreds more on gSearch, around 4600 on newspapers.com search. There is enough to meet WP:GNG many times over.

        • Aha, there are the accusations.
        • But if you read the article carefully, you can see that it is about a school. Not about the sports-program of a school. So it is the school-notability that must be sourced. Sports or alumni do not prove the notability of a school. The Banner talk 11:08, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
          • Again, not all of the references above mention sport. There are hundreds of other sources easily available if you bother to look at them.

              • It is evident you and I are not going to agree that there is a policy-based reason whether in-depth coverage by Sports Illustrated, NPR, etc. is coverage of the school. But why do you discount the non-sports-related coverage above, including this one? Or the hundreds of others on GSearch and newspapers.com? Or that one of it's buildings (Columbia County High School) [3] is on the National Register of Historic Places? Jacona (talk) 14:53, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable Islamist cleric. He was fired as imam in 1983 and since then has become famous for supporting Iran and making inflammatory remarks about Jews. He has an ADL profile and a profile on David Horowitz's "Discovering the Networks" which I doubt meets the criteria to be a non-biased source. Second citation is dead, third is his personal website, fourth is 2006 memri quotes, sixth link is dead, seventh is dead. He does appear briefly in the book "The Enemy of my Enemy". Many sources online are self-published. He does have a relatively unknown tafsir of the Quran, but I think he and the tafsir could be covered under the page for ICIT. Almost all sources on him are extremely biased and unreliable. They're either far-right Islamophobic or self-published, or anti-Semitic/pro-Iran/Hezbollah. Zaynab1418 (talk) 17:17, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: A notable asshole is still notable, but in this case, I'm not sure the notability is there.

No evidence that this particular approach to fusion meets GNG. Little to no coverage in secondary sources - sources in article do not support notability of the topic. Appears to have been written by a single purpose account with a likely WP:COI. PianoDan (talk) 16:50, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • A WARP core? A WARP reactor? Looks vaguely familiar for some reason. Did a search of various things - there's no coverage whatsoever anywhere, there's a single web page pushing this idea. The first source doesn't mention this concept, only mentions that a Zoom forum took place on the dates mentioned in the ref. The other sources appear to be a collection of concepts, with nothing to do with this as a concept. In all, this appears to be 100 percent a hoax and should be deleted, speedily if possible as such. Tony Fox (arf!) 17:01, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
After reading this through again, I may have been a bit harsh about the hoax comment and have struck it; this is certainly likely to be a concept of its own, but it has gained zero traction in and of itself, and thus remains non-notable at this time. All of the references seem to refer to physics concepts, rather than to this as a whole. I am still of the opinion that this does not meet WP:GNG and should be deleted. Tony Fox (arf!) 21:46, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    One of areas that I contribute to at wikipedia is reviewing Draft: articles, a process that we call AfC. One of the things that I look for before moving an article to mainspace (as was done for this article) is: significant coverage by independent and reliable secondary sources. For example: have newspapers written about the topic? is there an article about it in Scientific American? There is a difference between a topic that is notable versus demonstrating that it is by showing that it has been recognized by others not associated with the project. I would be willing to explain this in greater detail if you have questions about the guidelines that we use in these discussions, though we should probably do this on a talk page. You can also request advice from experienced editors on how to improve an article at Wikipedia:Teahouse. mikeu talk 20:14, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Understood. Added Peer-reviewed journal article. Thank you for your guidance. WarpingSpacetime (talk) 20:33, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    FYI, the link to the commercial website is warp-x.carrd.co which contains a slogan ("Warping Spacetime") that is remarkably similar to the original author's username. WP:COI should also be considered here although I WP:AGF that this is merely an enthusiastic support of the invention. The addition of a patent, later changed to a peer reviewed article, both linked to the originator of the idea strengthen my contention that this should be deleted. --mikeu talk 23:14, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Enthusiastic support is not against WP policy. The independent reliable sources referenced in this WP article [4], [5], [7] & [8] are peer-reviewed papers also written by other SMEs in the field which directly discuss idea and notability of this WP article topic.

100% NOT a hoax! This is a real novel fusion concept which uses known physics to accelerate multi-mega-amp-level ion rings to relativistic energies for magneto-inertial-fusion, flash radiography and accessing new high energy density physics regimes. Please review all physics and scientific references before erroneously claiming hoax and pushing article deletion. Also, calls for this article deletion from others appears to be a conflict of interest since proposed concept is much more cost effective than other high energy particle physics programs which others may be associated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WarpingSpacetime (talk • contribs) 17:47, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be unclear on the rationale for deletion. Whether or not is a HOAX is not germane to whether or not there should be an article on the topic. We have MANY articles on hoaxes. (See Piltdown man, for example.) What is important is whether the topic is NOTABLE, i.e., has been covered in reliable secondary sources. Before I nominated the article, I did review all of the physics and scientific references I could find on the topic, and there were almost none.
If you are accusing ME of a conflict of interest because I'm associated with a high energy particle physics program, well - that's an easy one to refute, since I'm primarily involved with medical cyclotrons in the 13-20 MeV range, and have no involvement whatsoever in fusion research.
The best way to preserve this article would be to add references to it that specifically refer to THIS particular fusion concept, not the concept of fusion generally. A search for "Wave Accelerated Pinch Reactor" turns up almost nothing that I can find. If you have other sources, please do present them.PianoDan (talk) 18:12, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The link to the patent establishes that the invention (or at least the idea of the invention) EXISTS. However, what needs to be established is that the idea is NOTABLE, which requires coverage in reliable sources. See WP:RS. PianoDan (talk) 19:54, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok. Added refereed journal article. Thanks again! WarpingSpacetime (talk) 20:14, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The articles you are adding still don't say anything about the specific device that is the topic of the article - they seem to simply be more background. In order to keep this article, there still needs to be demonstrated coverage of this specific device. None of these articles appear to mention the "Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reactor" at all. PianoDan (talk) 22:32, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose/Keep: With due respect, I disagree with your assessment to delete article. References [1]-[3] cover in great detail the WARP Reactor conceptual design with References [4]-[5] delving into the physics behind its operation. WarpingSpacetime (talk) 22:52, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
1. Please do not vote twice on the same AfD page.
2. Reference [1] does not actually appear to reference this concept at all, and even if it did, this type of conference website would not meet the definition of a reliable source.
3. Reference [2] is a patent. It does not establish notability, merely existence.
4. Reference [3] appears to talk about a fusion concept close to the one in the article, but does not use the language of the article. It might support the existence of a Wikipedia article on "Field reversed configuration fusion", but not on a "Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reactor," since those words don't actually seem to appear in that order in the article. PianoDan (talk) 23:34, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
In addition to the inventor's various peer-reviewed papers directly related to the topic and referenced in the WP article there is also the conference presentation titled "Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch eXperiment (WARP X)" by the inventor and subject matter expert which meets the following: WP:SPS Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established subject-matter expert, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications.

    To keep this article, we don't need to establish the notability of nuclear fusion or magnetic confinement fusion or any of the other things those references are about. We already HAVE articles on those things. We need to establish the notability of this exact thing, the Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reactor. To do that, we would need independent, reliable sources that use the words "Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reactor" in that exact order. If the source doesn't even MENTION the topic of the article, then by definition it doesn't support that the topic is notable, since it didn't take note of it.

    [1] is not meant to establish notability. [1] is just to appease the previous request for a reliable source with exact Article Title. Confusion appears to be between notability request for exact Article Title vs Article Topic/s vs Article Subject/s . . . Also, WP:NPOSSIBLE "Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the possibility or existence of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article.

    Wikipedia articles are not a final draft, and an article's subject can be notable if such sources exist, even if they have not been named yet.

    Again . . . WP:N Wikipedia's guideline on Notability states that "If a TOPIC has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the SUBJECT, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article." (See [4],[5],[7] for directly relevant to WARP Reactor ion ring pinch/compression, fusion and radiation topics; See [8]-[11],[13] for directly relevant WARP Reactor inertial fusion, high energy density physics and next generation pulsed power topics; See [14] for directly relevant WARP Reactor DPF/Z-Pinch topic). Confusion appears to be between notability request for exact Article Title vs Article Topic/s vs Article Subject/s . . .

    Articles about fusion generally are not about the Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reactor. Articles about magnetic confinement are not articles about Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reactor. Articles about inertial fusion are not about the Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reaactor.
    There need to be independent, reliable sources that are DIRECTLY about the Wave Accelerated Ring Pinch Reactor. Quoting Wikipedia guidelines at length does not change the fact that we can't find any independent reliable sources about the actual topic of the article. We don't need articles related topics. We don't need supporting information. We need coverage of the actual subject of the article. PianoDan (talk) 17:51, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't know how else to explain this. Reference [4], [5] & [7] discuss directly the WARP Reactor topic for ion ring compression for fusion and radiation sources. These are (along with all other peer-reviewed papers referenced in this WP article) independent, reliable sources DIRECTLY about WARP Reactor topic per WP guidelines. Not acknowledging the above nor the confusion between notability request for exact Article Title vs Article Topic/s vs Article Subject/s and WP:NPOSSIBLE seems to point to a lack of understanding or reading of the referenced directly relevant peer-reviewed physics articles. WarpingSpacetime (talk) 19:14, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Repeatedly quoting the same guidelines with which we were already familiar before this discussion began does not make for a stronger argument. XOR'easter (talk) 17:56, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Agreed . . . repeatedly quoting the same exact WP guideline is perhaps not very useful assuming those participating in the discussion read the entire transcript.

Keep As a federally designated National Natural Landmark, I would think notability is likely. Sources that provide coverage to corroborate this include [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].

I said notability is likely for NNLs, not that they don't need to meet GNG. But then I provided 9 links that provide coverage indicating this location does pass GNG and verifiability. If you disagree that these are substantive enough I presented an WP:ATD because I think NNLs should still have coverage even if not warranting a stand-alone article.

  • Keep – Members of the former ruling families of Brazil, Mexico, Iran, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, France (Bourbon, Orléans, Bonaparte), Georgia, Greece, Montenegro, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Italy (Savoy, Bourbon-Two Sicilies, Austria-Este, Bourbon-Parma, Habsburg-Lorraine), Prussia, Bavaria, Hanover, Saxony, Hesse, Oldenburg, Brunswick, Schleswig-Holstein, and even Hawai'i still (to varying degrees--the Hawai'ians and Habsburgs are less keen) use their former titles; in many cases "prince" and "princess", sometimes "duke", "archduke", etc.; even though the last reigning monarchs produced by their families died 100+ years ago. Not only is continuing to use a title once officially held by your family as a mark of recognition for their place in history not "simply not done", it's more common today than actually being officially entitled to such a senior title by virtue of a close, living relative of yours being a reigning monarch. Besides that, Alexander was in the line of the succession to the British throne before the rule was changed Source 1 Source 2. The UK officially recognizes him as a prince. --DragonFederal (talk) 06:32, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The line of succession to the British throne is believed to consist of several thousand people. However it's not clear that he is in it, as a Serb he is probably Greek Orthodox.

  • Delete. All sourcing comes from tabloids.

  • Delete it is time to free Wikipedia from deposed monarchy cruft, and that is what this article is. Even members of ruling families are not default notable for existing, we need to have actual reliable source coverage about them.

  • Keep First, WP:ITSCRUFT is not a valid argument.

  • Reply WP:ITSCRUFT is only an essay, not a rigid guideline. IMHO "deposed monarchy cruft" is a valid argument, but we can discuss this further.

WP:MILL administrator of non-notable college communications school. Subject fails WP:ACADEMIC as well as WP:ANYBIO. 5 and 6 of WP:ACADEMIC refer to "major academic institutions" and the Quinnipiac communications school fails to meet that category. The notable Quinnipiac Poll is unaffiliated with the communications school, which itself is not notable is only mentioned twice and in passing in Quinnipiac University, one of those times to describe how it shares a building with the engineering school.

This article looks exactly like this: initially a one-line stub saying that he held the distinguished professor title. It has been significantly expanded since. A bigger issue are the WP:AUTOBIO edits in 2019 by someone with the same name as the subject, but I think there have been enough other contributors to the article to keep any promotionalism at bay. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:55, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sources are a dead link to TV.com, a source so incomplete I can't even tell what it is, and a couple articles about the term "alpha mom" which don't mention the show. The article is trying to be about at least three different uses of "Alpha Mom" all at once. IMDb says that Preston Bailey was in the TV show, but "preston bailey" "alpha mom" turned up zero hits on ProQuest; a regular Google search for the same term turned up only IMDb, Wikipedia mirrors, and similar aggregators. The term itself already has an article at alpha mom, so I have no idea why other editors deemed it necessary to WP:COATRACK other uses onto this page; I found so little about the TV show that I'm almost convinced it's a WP:HOAX. Prod contested. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 14:11, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ETA: While a couple of the sources about the term "alpha mom" in general might be worth merging to alpha mom, I'm not so sure that page passes WP:NEO either and will let other editors decide that page's fate. Either way, I'm about 99% convinced the TV show never existed. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 14:26, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete It's not a hoax. It existed on NBC's pilot board. It is listed on the March 20 and May 15, 2006, editions of TelevisionWeek with this entry:

Alpha Mom. Studio: NUTS [ NBC Universal Television Studio ] Executive Producer: Kerry Ehrin A corporate mom juggles her career and home life. Single camera. Cast: Kevin Rahm, Alexondra Lee, Johnny Sneed, Scott Holroyd, Justina Machado, Michael Mosley

It is also mentioned in Variety on February 2, 2006. The name stuck around enough that another pilot at NBC was renamed Alpha Mom in 2011. It was of no relation: NBC's comedy from Emily Spivey (with Lorne Michaels on board as an exec producer as well) is now “Alpha Mom,” starring Christina Applegate, Will Arnett and Maya Rudolph.
However, NBC never picked up the pilot to series, it never showed up in any TV schedules, and the struggle we had to get sourcing indicates that this does not meet the GNG. Not all of their comedy pilots that year were non-notable duds, I might add... I wonder how Untitled Tina Fey Comedy did? Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 14:55, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Article on an ill-defined concept, that lacks references. Reasons for deletion:
    • Article has no references and has been marked as Unreferenced since 2009. I was not able to find any references for this concept. It seems that the term 'randomization function' is not used systematically in literature.
    • The article does not clarify what a 'Randomized function' actually is. If fails to explain how the concept is different from a hash function, a pseudorandom function family or a random permutation The articles states that while 'Randomization functions' are related to hash functions, their uses and requirements are different, but it does not elaborate on this.
    • The example about quicksort is actually a nice illustration of the use of randomized algorithms. However, this is explained better at Randomized algorithm and Quicksort

  • Comment I think there is a real topic here, as in the field of randomized algorithms, how one goes about randomizing the problems matters--uniform vs nonuniform distributions, is it possible to derandomize an algorithm, etc. But I don't know that the randomizing process in that field is canonically called a "Randomization function". If it is a neologism, then the article should probably be deleted. But if this is standard terminology (my knowledge of the field stops at Motwani and Raghavan), then a redirect to Randomized_algorithm#Motivation which briefly mentions such functions, may be warranted. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 20:48, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I can see how this article could make sense if it defined a randomization function to be 'a randomized algorithm that maps a problem instance to another equivalent problem instance' or something along that line. However, as far as I know 'Randomization function' is not standard terminology in the field of randomized algorithms. At least, I have not been able to find any references where the term is use like this. Plusminusone (talk) 19:16, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kerry was involved with a political party. It is unclear that he ever ran for office, ever held a clear office, or was ever more than a minor public figure. The sourcing we have here, a website basically trying to document as many people connected with this political movement as possible, is enough to show notability. The sourcing clear does not rise to the multiple reliable sources that are indepdent of the subject and each other, and secondary while giving in-depth coverage, that we need to justify an article.

List of fictional deities[edit]

This list is unreferenced and fails WP:NLIST. An attempt to list all fictional gods, mostly from zillion works of fantasy, is unwieldy. While there are some listicles about "most powerful god in DC comics" or such, I couldn't find any reliable source attempting to replicate such a list (outside Wikipedia). Of course, the concepts of gods in fiction or such would likely be notable, as an analytical article (my BEFORE does suggest entries on "gods" or such exist in, for example, some encyclopedias of science fiction and fantasy), but a listing of all such entities seems to fail the cited policy (NLIST). I'll add that the previous AfD seems to have a numbe of people confusing this poorly referenced list with the aforementioned "gods in ficton" article, and voting keep, thinking that something could be rescued. Over a year has passed, nothing has been improved, and IMHO nothing here is salvageable (so as far as transforming this into an analytical entry, WP:TNT applies).

  • Delete Per nom. I watchlist this article due to an LTA who used to slam every character that was ever even remotely hinted to have "celestial" or "god" powers into it with long grandois titles. Keeping it from continuing to spiral out of control is the best I could do, fixing it is likely impossible. It's poorly defined (What is a deity? We have everything from outright gods to demigods to angels to Hercules-style characters). And even then, it is horribly woefully incomplete. I agree with Piotrus that a gods in fiction article may be something adjacent that could be sourced, however, this list isn't that. If someone believes it was meant to cover gods in fiction more generally, as at least one person stated at the last AFD, then TNT is required to get there. -- ferret (talk) 13:19, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    There is a good reason why at least one of those voters, if not more, were topic banned from participation in deletion discussion. I'll note your own topic ban was discussed - but not implemented; I voted against it back then - but your "keep" vote with no argument pertaining to the article in question is hardly best practices.

    I gave you a clear reason. And what part of that guideline do you not believe is met? Also the list has more information than the category does Category:Fictional deities so is more useful for those seeking to find information about fictional deities. Dream Focus 19:54, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Having a purpose is not enough (per Wikipedia:ITSUSEFULL). Meeting Manual of Style is not sufficient to warrant keeping in article, when other policies (LISTN, SYNTH) are not met. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 16:44, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: the list was correctly kept two years ago on the grounds that it fully met the list notability criteria, and that the topic was (and remains now) certainly notable. I don't actually understand why editors should ignore a clear consensus of that type when nothing of significance has changed in the interval — it's close to an abuse of process really. The deletion reasons given above are incorrect and inapplicable. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:21, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Delete - While a navigational list on the topic might be valid, there are just too many problems with how this is one is currently presented. First, many of the listed examples are not notable, and do not link to their own articles - not only are there many with no blue links at all, but many of the blue linked entries themselves are misleading, as they do not actually link to an independent article on the deity. Several of the blue linked entries also fail the actual criteria of the list, of "not include deities worshipped by humans in real life that appear in fictional works" - a number of these entries are, in fact, just "real world" deities that happened to have appeared in a piece of fiction. Second, without a single source being used to verify any of this information, the whole thing is filled with WP:OR - many of the entries here are highly debatable if they are, in fact, "deities", and there are some that I would argue flatly are not. Without valid sourcing, this would not be proper to keep even as a navigational list due to those WP:OR concerns. Rorshacma (talk) 17:45, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There is an option you can unlock that makes blue links that are only redirects appear green instead of blue. Most of the blue links are in fact their own articles. Real life gods people once believed in have separate articles for their comics versions. Ares (DC Comics), Hercules (DC Comics), Hercules (Marvel Comics), Odin (Marvel Comics), Thor (Marvel Comics), etc. Dream Focus 18:02, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The "DC" or "Marvel" versions of the characters still do not fall into the scope of the list, which is very specifically stated to be "deities exclusively for fictional works" that "does not include deities worshipped by humans in real life that appear in fictional works". As in, deities that were originally created for a piece of fiction, not "real" deities that have been adapted for a piece of fiction, in the way that the examples you brought up are. This list, as presented, is for "fictional deities", as in, deities that do not "exist", not a list of "real" deities portrayed in fiction, which is an entirely different topic. Rorshacma (talk) 18:31, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I fixed it. It now clarifies: This is a list of deities exclusively for fictional works, organized primarily by media type then by title of the fiction work, series, franchise or author. This list does not include deities worshiped by humans in real life that appear in fictional works unless they are distinct enough to be mentioned in a Wikipedia article separate than the articles for the entities they are based on. Dream Focus 18:58, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks. Now, can you show a single, reliable source that contains such a grouping, so that LISTN would be met? Let me help you with what is required: "accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines...

    Agree with Piotrus. None of these studies discuss specific fictional gods as a group. One is specific to Final Fantasy, one is specific to a single Virgin Comics line, and the last is about the very concept of fictional deities and building them out, rather than a discussion about a group of already existent characters. Good sources for a gods in fiction or similar, but does not appear to contribute to LISTN. -- ferret (talk) 15:57, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. As pointed out above, mythical deities are discussed as a set in sources (User:Jclemens has sources right above me), and this meets NLIST. The list article itself is linking to notable Wikipedia entries that themselves have sources.

This is a mostly unreferenced de facto list, but it fails WP:NLIST. My BEFORE found only low quality listicles (ex. [22] or [23] which are not very reliable). As an article, it fails WP:GNG/WP:IPC. While the concept of gods and religion in comics is likely notabe, a listing of god characters and even "events involving gods" (such a section exists in the article) seems like simple WP:FANCRUFT (and rather problematic, as it lists a number of entities that are fictional, like Atlantean gods, and such, plux many entries are just simple descriptions "The Mexican gods are a pantheon of both Mayan and Aztec deities.", not even confirming that Mexican gods indeed appeared in DCverse.

  • Delete - There is not a single source being used outside of the comics themselves and some fan sites. The article consists entirely of in-universe plot information, and does not even serve as a useful navigational list, as nearly every entry just links to the article on the real-world version of the various pantheons. While some of the individual entries here (such as the New Gods) are notable on their own and have valid sourcing, there really is not any reliable, secondary sources that discuss the overall concept of "gods" in general in the DCU that would pass the WP:GNG.

Failure to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines; insufficient independent & secondary sources; article reads like a CV (see: what Wikipedia is not) WikiEditor93B (talk) 18:18, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. It's on the edge, but I think the coverage in Reuters, the multiple mentions in an O'Reilly book on Kubernetes, and the several references to Coldwater as an influential Kubernetes and computer security community member put this into keep territory. I've cleaned up the cites a bit and swapped out some independent ones. I disagree that it reads like a CV, though even if it did that is a surmountable problem.

  • Comment, whatever we do with this should probably also apply to Pfütsero_Government_College which appears to be a similar organisation with similar status, also linked to Nagaland university. It would help if we had input from someone who understands the Indian educational system; there is no exact parallel for this sort of degree-awarding mini-University in the UK, so I have no feeling for how notable they might be. Merge-and-redirect would be okay, provided the link between Sazolie and Nagaland is strong, and the information on Sazolie (and Pfütsero) sits well in Nagaland; at the moment, a search of Nagaland's own website brings almost no hits for Sazolie, which argues against.

Discrimination based on hair texture[edit]

Discrimination based on hair texture (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's subject (discrimination allegedly based on hair texture) doesn't seem to actually be a 'thing'.

Much of the article is unsourced. What is sourced fits into two categories, either: 1) it's a sub-set of racism (afro hair etc), as stated by both the article and sources, thus should be discussed in Racism; or 2) is misrepresentation of the source. Like the example in the "Jamaica" section is (per the source) blatantly not "discrimination based on hair texture" but rather it is (quoting the source) discrimination based on religion.

Googling "Discrimination based on hair texture" finds sources that discuss the issue in the context of racism.[25][26] ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 17:26, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment A very difficult AfD. The discrimination is cited. It's just not clear to me if the discrimination is about race or hair texture and to reach a conclusion on that would seem like original research, or opinion. So I don't want to do that. I think deleting this would be a step too far, so I'd start off by discouraging that. As for an actual !vote, I'll pause and see if people have better takes than me.... 21:07, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
  • Redirect to racism, or have a subsection on it. Oaktree b (talk) 00:05, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep content, but perhaps rename to something like "Discrimination against Afro-textured hair" or merge to Afro-textured hair, reflecting the actual content. Discrimination against African hair is definitely a real thing and a distinct encyclopedic topic, amply covered in many sources. But "discrimination based on hair texture" would suggest grouping this with, e.g., general anti-curly-hair prejudice and whatever other texture-based discriminations may exist, which wouldn't really make sense structurally. (Side note: it would be great (but a lot of work) to have an umbrella article on hair discrimination, which currently redirects to this article.) -- Visviva (talk) 23:41, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or shorten and merge into a broader article on different types of discrimination. I don’t think the topic is notable enough to merit a stand-alone article. Bookworm857158367 (talk) 23:17, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Oh dear. Yeah, it's a thing. It's an extremely well documented and studied thing and absolutely should not be redirected all the way up to racism. The two main questions are: (1) the extent to which the topic is broader than discrimination related to Afro-textured hair. That I'm not as sure about. If not, the approach is to move/rename it. (2) the extent to which it's notable outside of the US (given the existence of a separate article on Discrimination based on hair texture in the United States). It took seconds to find a whole lot of sources about this discrimination elsewhere. Just in the UK: BBC, Huffington Post, Huffington Post again, Independent, Independent again. These are from the first page of ghits. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:48, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, or possibly Merge. Agree 100% with CT55555's initial comment - this is a tricky one. Looking at the comment above from Rhododendrites, is it possible that we could merge the content from Discrimination based on hair texture in the United States into this article? I know that may be beyond the scope of a typical AfD discussion, but this particular one seems really thorny. There's obviously plenty of coverage on the topic even outside the scope of the US, and the very article we are discussing here is pretty well cited. I definitely don't see any case for deleting it altogether, but what exactly we should do with it is much harder to determine. Sleddog116 (talk) 16:12, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Expanded and added sources including the 2018 Associated Press article on the return of the American Samoa women's football team to a FIFA Women's World Cup qualifying tournament for the first time in 20 years, which was widely syndicated to publications including NBCSports.com. The AP article includes a quote from Alma Mana'o, who was co-captain of the American Samoa squad, and also holds the record for number of caps for American Samoa (7 total, 1 more than her sister Ava). To be honest, I'm not sure if Alma's sisters' and cousin's Wikipedia articles would survive AfD on their own, but out of four of them, Alma has just enough coverage to justify keeping hers. Given the challenges in finding coverage on Oceania teams and athletes, I think this is one that just manages to make it over the line thanks to the AP, and perhaps the Women's Football Task Force or the Oceania projects would be able to uncover additional sources.

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

This article was deleted via a PROD and was restored. The reasons behind the PROD remain. The article is about an inter-school cricket match, which although played since 1933, lacks wider historical significance. The article is largely based around WP:NOTSTATS and WP:TRIVIA, so lacks any depth in writing to establish notability and the sources correspond to this, being all pretty much WP:ROUTINE. As school cricket is considered minor cricket, there would have to be a historical significance to satisfy WP:NCRIC; in this case, I can't see any. Matches such as the Eton v Harrow match meet this requirement, and the Royal–Thomian match is probably the closest Sri Lankan match to meet this requirement. It might be better to expand the Big Match article to detail all these matches there, using reliable sources and stepping away from a long list of stats and trivia. In their current form, all (with the exception I believe of the Royal–Thomian match) fail WP:GNG. This article also uses incorrect terminology: Test and ODI matches won't be played by a school cricket team!!! StickyWicket (talk) 09:09, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • WP:NOTINHERITED applies. Just because notable people have played in this tournament, it doesn't necessarily make the tournament itself notable. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:40, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Userpwc1 you've misunderstood NCRIC, just because an individual has gone onto play at a higher level, it doesn't mean the cricket club, match, or league they might have played in is notable. My local cricket club had the Lillywhite family play for them, but the club doesn't have an article because it isn't notable in its own right. StickyWicket (talk) 22:41, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So this is a true for discussion as I'm not sure how to best handle this article from the 2010 backlog. I can find no sourcing beyond confirmation that the program existed and operated for several years. I contemplated a merger to Makerere University but the medical school that houses this program is not mentioned there. Uganda Cancer Institute is a possible redirect, but it's a joint venture (or was, unclear if it's still operational, website is now selling aromatherapies). It's not mentioned at Mulago_National_Specialised_Hospital#Mulago_Hospital_Complex, although UCI is mentioned there but noted as separate. Thoughts? Ideas? A merger could be done wouldn't be super helpful as there's nothing to merge beyond its existence. Star Mississippi 03:10, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  1. The sources I've added and mentioned above
  2. Admittedly some WP:LIKE combined with some desire to see wikipedia having better coverage of issues like cancer care in Uganda, which I value, compared to a lot of the popular culture articles that seem overall to prevalent, but of course my personal views on that should probably be discounted, please forgive the rant.

Weak keep - she has received awards from the presidents of Mongolia and China, but I am having trouble finding WP:RS for those honors.

  • Keep. Helpful addition of citations by DaffodilOcean. I've also deleted two of the award sentences which remained unsourced and frankly aren't needed to establish notability and really come across as COI padding. (However, those two sentences are "parked" for now on the Talk page in case anyone wants to find sources for them in the future.)

Per WP:NCRYPTO, When establishing the notability of cryptocurrencies and other blockchain-related projects, the consensus is that crypto-centric news organizations—such as Coindesk or Bitcoin Magazine—generally cannot be used, as they do not provide coverage that can be considered "independent" from their subject. In light of this, the sources in the article do not establish that the article subject has been significantly covered by multiple independent reliable sources, as the current sources are (in order of appearance):

  1. The crypto project's website;
  2. A crypto-specific news site;
  3. The crypto project's website (again);
  4. A second crypto-specific website;
  5. A TedX bio;
  6. A now-deadlink that is a raw interview;
  7. A website for a Slack-like company;
  8. A crypto-specific news website;
  9. A crypto-specific news website;
  10. The same crypto-specific news website as the previous one
  11. A crypto-specific news website;
  12. A whitepaper from a Venture Capital firm's crypto-specific website;
  13. A crypto-specific new site;
  14. A Forbes contributor source (see WP:FORBESCON.

Argueably, it has more reliable sources than some of the other articles featured in Category:blockchain games. Lvlyxl (talk) 15:49, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Lvlyxl Claims of suitable reliable secondary sources require proof. Where are they? The nom has already explained why the sources above are unsuitable. Where are the crypto-independent sources? -- ferret (talk) 16:49, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The article has since been updated since nom's assessments. Full article about the game in Berliner Zeitung. Nomination for technical achievement award in video games at the Webby Awards - along with many more sources of credibility added to the original article.

    Berliner Zeitung is about the earlier project, "Exercise in Hopeless Nostalgia", not the 2021 project, as is the Webby award. A related but separate topic in the end. -- ferret (talk) 17:12, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    They are both the same project, game and engine - as mentioned by the founder and curators in multiple sources(pg.13). The article is following the same convention of documenting iterations and updates of the game as used in other video games such as Minecraft. Please give proof to suggest that they are separate projects. Lvlyxl (talk) 17:23, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, these sources are significant coverage independent of the subject, and are on reliable. My "delete" suggestion is weakened. Merko (talk) 22:58, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The Webby nomination is not in-depth or notable. Even if WP:NWEB applied here, it requires winning the award, not being nominated. -- ferret (talk) 23:35, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Does not meet WP:GNG. I wasn't able to turn up anything more on DuckDuckGo or ProQuest. Available coverage is limited to routine "new show announced" coverage, press releases and blog posts speculating about what the then-unreleased show might be like. As it stands, it's not entirely clear that the show ever actually aired. signed, Rosguill talk 01:06, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to List of programs broadcast by NBCSN (with the history preserved under the redirect) per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. Preserving the history will allow editors to do a selective merge to the target article and to undo the redirect if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future. I verified that the show has aired. Here are two sources (the first source says the television series will debut on 7 June 2009 and the second source published on 17 July 2009 says that Zach Selwyn is "currently the host of Fanarchy on Versus"):
    1. Levine, Stuart (2009-05-11). "Versus to launch 'Fanarchy'". Variety. Archived from the original on 2022-06-06. Retrieved 2022-06-06.

      The article notes: "Sports cabler net Versus will launch a weekly show that will give fans a chance to speak their minds. “Fanarchy” will debut at 11 p.m. Sunday, June 7, but will subsequently air regularly at 10:30 p.m. Tuesdays."

    2. "GeekDad Interviews the "Engineers of Destruction" from Catch It Keep It". Wired. 2009-07-17. Archived from the original on 2022-06-06. Retrieved 2022-06-06.

      The article notes (my bolding): "Zach Selwyn meanwhile, is an actor/singer-songwriter and the host of Catch It Keep It along with the aforementioned Mike Senese. Zach recorded the theme music for the show and has released five CDs with his band "Zachariah and the Lobos Riders." He is also currently the host of Fanarchy on Versus."
