Támar[edit]

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

She appears to have worked with notable artists, but that alone is not enough to warrant her own article; and redirecting her article to ~~either Prince (musician) or~~ Destiny's Child (of which she was apparently an early member of) seems like a stretch. Speaking of the latter point, that information (as well as virtually all of the historical sections of the article) is unsourced and was added by IPs. (Speaking of that, I didn't notify anyone on a talk page because it doesn't appear that there are any regular editors for the article.) Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 12:37, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Grammy nominee with coverage in independent reliable sources. What more do you want? duffbeerforme (talk) 07:21, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- If you're referring to "Beautiful, Loved and Blessed", that technically isn't her song; it's Prince featuring her. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 13:47, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep - ~~As noted above she is not "Grammy nominated" because she was only a guest on someone else's nominated song, but she describes herself as such at every opportunity.~~ (EDIT: Maybe "Grammy nominated", see below.) She has performed professionally under at least four different names: Ashley Tamar, Ashley Tamar Davis, Tamar Davis, and simply Tamar, which probably has not helped her career. She also regularly exaggerates herself as an early member of Destiny's Child (false, she was in their predecessor group) and "protege" of Prince (false, she was a guest singer on that one song). Alas, after decades of self-aggrandizement and occasional achievements she has attracted a little in-depth media notice, including the two sources already in the article, plus these and a few others: [1], [2], [3]. Per WP policy on minor celebrities there seems to be enough to not delete the article, which is not exactly a ringing endorsement but we might be stuck with it. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:48, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. She has a Grammy nomination and a list of professional acting credits with national tours. 2600:8803:B601:EA00:7D17:5FB1:9D85:DEE8 (talk) 19:49, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
User:Erpert and User:doomsdayer520. Let's look here at a list of nominees. What does it say? "Prince & Támar". Not just Prince. So if she is listed as a nominee isn't it safe to assume she actually is a nominee? Don't trust that list then try another one here. What does it say? "Prince & Támar". Not just Prince. So where are you getting the idea she was not nominated? duffbeerforme (talk) 23:47, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

My perspective is that it's a Prince song from a Prince album, listed in all retail sources and Prince directories as "featuring Tamar", so regardless of what the Grammy lists say, Tamar's nomination is tangential. But if that is enough to say that she was "nominated" for WP purposes then I won't fight it. However, note that my vote in this AfD is essentially the same as yours. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:01, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

At any rate, I deleted all of the unsourced information from the article (which was, frankly, most of it). I wouldn't be against a redirect to Prince (musician) now though. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 13:18, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

She was nominated for a Grammy alongside Price. That in itself is significant enough to have her own page. I think the fact that she was a member of the group that became Destiny's Child is pretty relevant, too. She also has a fairly respectable acting/performing resume (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1483963/bio). This call for deletion feels like it stems from a personal beef with her. 2600:8803:B601:EA00:7D17:5FB1:9D85:DEE8 (talk) 19:40, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep a useful list of mainly blue links for history researchers. The topic is very likely to pass WP:LISTN in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 19:43, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- a legitimate and potentially useful list. I would prefer it to be Christian campaigners for Indian independence or something like that, because most of them did not fight. The opening words "incomplete essay" were presumably intended as a tag. However, this is a list. Almost all the articles have links to bio articles, which is where the references should be. It would be better this a slightly longer intro - another couple of sentences, linking it better to the independence movement. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:41, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I see no reason why intersection of person's religion and their activities in freedom struggle of India are relevant. The freedom struggle of India was not based on any religious. One may argue that formation of Pakistan was based on religious grounds and hence a religion+Pakistan formation subgroup may be notable. But that's not applicable with India. Until someone proves why this intersection is notable, this is just LISTCRUFT, no matter howmuchsoever blue linked entries it has. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 11:34, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I click on T. V. Thomas and find he was an atheist and also fought for communist rule, not freedom. Also some of these were just elected officials, they didn't doing any actual fighting, just writing letters and speaking out against things. Should be list of activists.

Delete Agree with Dharmadyaksha here. The premise of this list is flawed; there's no evidence this is treated as a notable topic; merely being filled with notable people doesn't satisfy LISTN, and to boot the actual organization appears critically flawed as "freedom fighters" doesn't properly describe many.

Mark Hinkle[edit]

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

Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. A WP:BEFORE search on multiple search engines failed to produce any WP:RS-compliant sourcing that contained significant coverage of the subject.

This was a contested PROD. The prod tag was removed with the comment: "A Chairman for the Libertarian Party - notable". My reply to this good faith argument is that that national party chairs are not considered inherently notable per Wikipedia's notability guidelines for politicians/political figures. Significant coverage in reliable independent sources is needed to establish notability, and it is decidedly lacking here. Sal2100 (talk) 15:33, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: sources in the article aren't sufficient to satisfy WP:ORG or WP:GNG. Most of the coverage relates to a single stunt involving two of the group's members; the Guardian article offers slightly more substantial coverage of the group itself, but a single source isn't enough. I wasn't able to find any other coverage beyond passing mentions. It's possible a short section could be added to Vote Leave#Relationship with other groups and this redirected here, but inclusion criteria for that section aren't entirely clear to me and adding this there could cause other problems. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 19:07, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Building the Virginian Railway[edit]

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

This isn't really an encyclopedia article, it's a personal essay in article space. Created in 2005 with zero inline citations, it remains essentially unchanged today. Much of this article simply duplicates Virginian Railway, and what doesn't is often more like a personal essay. Consider lines like:

"Gambling on that premise, the two big railroads saw to it that the "negotiations" were always unproductive, and Col. Page always declined to indicate the source of his apparently "deep pockets." By this time, Page must surely have been enjoying his newfound power in dealing with the arrogant big railroads. In fact, management of the funding Rogers was providing was handled by Boston financier Godfrey M. Hyams, with whom he had also worked on the Anaconda Company, and many other natural resource projects."
"If Col. Page and his Deepwater Railway scheme had met with an unpleasant surprise, as it turned out, the big railroads were in for an even bigger one. Page didn't give up his scheme, as most surely must have been anticipated. Instead, he stubbornly continued building his short-line railroad through some of the most rugged terrain of the Mountain State, to the increasing puzzlement of the leaders of the big railroads. They were unaware that one of Page's investors (who were silent partners in the venture) was the powerful Rogers. Henry Rogers was an old hand at mineral and transportation development, and his projects and investments seldom failed. His tenacity, energy, and organizational skills had led him to become one of John D. Rockefeller's key men at the Standard Oil Trust. Always ready to do corporate battle, Rogers wasn't about to have the Deepwater investment foiled by the big railroads."

The article goes off on a huge tangent about Booker T Washingtion which, while interesting trivia, is not relevant to the article's subject at all. There could potentially be a notable subject here, but what exists is so far from an encyclopedia article it merits deletion and starting over (at a title that doesn't sound like a self-published book written by a railfan. I suggest "Construction of the Virginian Railway"). Trainsandotherthings (talk) 23:13, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Unnecessary content fork that is full of synthesis and essay-type prose. Even if there were enough content to break this section out into its own article, this would be a WP:TNT situation anyway, due to the writing style and haphazard/nonexistent inline referencing style.

List of people on the postage stamps of Panama[edit]

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

Yet another barely-sourced list in utter failure of WP:SALAT. The sources are just a bunch of stamp catalogs that may or may not be accessible. As with all these other lists, there is a rapidly growing consensus: even if we can verify that every single one of these people is on the postage stamps named, there is zero evidence of a source that proves the topic of them being on stamps is notable in its own right. I've seen some cleanup, but no attempt to dig for better sources, and my own WP:BEFORE on GBooks found nothing relevant.

Florida Bible Christian School[edit]

While the school is closed, it existed during the internet era during which sourcing should be online. What I have found is limited to directories of christian schools (such as this and review sites. Nothing in depth.

I can find no evidence this school meets notability requirements. Joshua Henry was an alumnus, but that is a passing mention of the school and there are a handful of others, but notable alumni don't confer it upton the school. Star Mississippi 17:21, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Peterkingiron, High schools have not had any presumption of notability for 4 years. A public or not for profit private school must meet meet GNG; a for profit school must meet NCORP like any other business. And although notability isn't temporary, a change in our standards for notability are generally treated retroactively. 174.212.227.246 (talk) 18:31, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I did a thorough BEFORE on this and PROD'ed the article. The baseball team story is tangential, and the only thing that really shows up. As far as notability not being temporary, that guideline states "While notability itself is not temporary, from time to time a reassessment of the evidence of notability or suitability of existing articles may be requested by any user via a deletion discussion, or new evidence may arise for articles previously deemed unsuitable. Thus, an article may be proposed for deletion months or even years after its creation, or recreated whenever new evidence supports its existence as a standalone article." That is the case with secondary schools. They once got a free pass if they existed, but by consensus must now pass GNG or NCORP in order to be considered WP:N. This school doesn't have the WP:SIGCOV required.Jacona (talk) 10:16, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Coverage of the school's baseball team is not transferable to the school itself as notability is not inherited. Futher local coverage of school sports is WP:ROUTINE coverage. There's nothing here that addresses the topic of the school itself "directly and in detail".4meter4 (talk) 15:37, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, this isn't about transferring notability at all. The baseball team is part of the school. If the baseball team is notable, then the school is notable. St Anselm (talk) 16:27, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. WP:ROUTINE specifically mentions sports matches as routine coverage. School athletics is covered in local press as a matter of course, and there is a reason why we have that specifically under that guideline. Further, that coverage does not address the topic of the school itself (it's history and notability as a school), which is supposed to be the primary subject of this article. One would assume the primary purpose of this school is to educate its students in academic subjects, not athletics, yet we have no SIGCOV of the institutions primary purpose or its history as an organization.4meter4 (talk) 20:21, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see the person received any significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Didn't won any significant award or honor (recognition from the governor of West Bengal isn't a significant honor, they frequently gives this type of honor). The person's works hasn't become a significant monument, won significant critical attention. Full of self references, looks like created by someone close.

According to your statement you told that, "Recognition from the hon'ble Governor of West Bengal isn't a significant honor , they frequently gives this type of honor" . But as per my knowledge is concerned I do know that the honors about which you are speaking about is also given frequently to the respected persons.

But the recognition from the hon'ble Governor of West Bengal, India is not "this type of honor" as per your statement. It is a prestigious honor which is not given to everyone and frequently.

I think you're trying to diminish the value of this prestigious recognition. Tbengalieditor (talk) 04:55, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A mere "Recognition" is not a significant honor, not same as e.g. Bankim Puraskar, Sahitya Akademi Award etc. Here a teacher from West Bengal got a "Recognition" from Governor of Jharkhand for writing a book, should we create an article about this person? This type of honor/recognition are frequently given, we should not keep this article just because of this. The article was deleted last year with clear consensus. Since then nothing has been changed. No significant coverage, no in-depth coverage. Nothing in Bengali either.

As per your statement that the recognition from The Hon'ble Governor is frequently given, can you please help me by telling the name of the persons (at least 20 persons) who have got the recognition from the Hon'ble Governor of West Bengal ?

If the person from West Bengal who has got recognition from The Hon'ble Governor of Jharkhand for his literary work, has written independent books and his literary works has been published from reliable sources like newspapers, and articles on his name have also been published on newspapers, then obviously the person should have an wiki article.

Soumendu Lahiri has written some independent books of poetry and worked with other poets in various collective anthology. Name of some books are added in the bibiliography section of the article with their ISBN No. His literary works and biography have been published on some popular newspapers of West Bengal like- Anandabazar Patrika , Puber Kalom etc. Regards,-- Tbengalieditor (talk) 07:16, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Literary works has been published from reliable sources like newspapers", "has written some independent books of poetry and worked with other poets in various collective anthology", has "ISBN" doesn't mean they are automatically notable. That's not receiving significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Otherwise you can create articles about every columnist, every reporter, every writer of newspaper. Every writer who wrote some books. আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 13:16, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You're saying at first that ' "Literary works has been published from reliable sources like newspapers", "has written some independent books of poetry and worked with other poets in various collective anthology", has "ISBN" doesn't mean they are automatically notable.' . On other hand you're saying ''That's not receiving significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.'' It means you're focusing on significant coverage in reliable sources after ignoring them. You are accepting the truth in a different way which (The Truth) I said clearly earlier.

Every columnist, every reporter, every writer of newspaper writes on newspaper but generally they do not become the subject of the news or article ; that is why except on notable persons one should not create wiki article on them (Every columnist, every reporter, every writer of newspaper).

As per wiki norms if an author has some independent books (It wil be more helpful if there is ISBN) , he has become the subject of a news article or has recieved a special honor etc. then he is notable (wiki-lawfully but not "automatically"). Please See WP:GNG

"Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.
- The book-length history of IBM by Robert Sobel is plainly non-trivial coverage of IBM.
- Martin Walker's statement, in a newspaper article about Bill Clinton, that "In high school, he was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice" is plainly a trivial mention of that band.
"Reliable" means that sources need editorial integrity to allow verifiable evaluation of notability, per the reliable source guideline. Sources may encompass published works in all forms and media, and in any language. Availability of secondary sources covering the subject is a good test for notability.
"Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected. Sources do not have to be available online or written in English. Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability.
"Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent.

Please check the reference section of the article Soumendu Lahiri. There are multiple significant coverage from reliable sources that are independent of the subject.

Respected Sir, you have not answered my question yet - "Can you please help me by telling the name of the persons (at least 20 persons) who have got the recognition from The Hon'ble Governor of West Bengal ?" As you have told that the honor from The Hon'ble Governor of West Bengal is frequently given. Regards -- Tbengalieditor (talk) 15:24, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Receiving significant coverage doesn't mean publishing your work on a newspaper, It means someone wrote about you/your work, and not just 1-2 line. Also it has to be in a reliable sources and independent of the subject. I failed to see those in the article, most of them are unreliable, self source, primary, or passing mentions. I already reviewed references section and that's why i started this afd. Wait for others to comment, if they think reference are reliable, not self source, not primary, or not passing mentions, article will be kept.

Widely circulated and renowned newspapers published from West Bengal of India, which have own wikipedia pages like- Anandabazar Patrika, Puber Kalom from which his works and articles have been published and you're saying these are not reliable sources. On the other hand The Honor from The Hon'ble Governor of West Bengal is mere a puppet to you as you told previously - "A mere "Recognition" is not a significant honor,...". But you're failed to show as well as trying to avoid my question , "Can you please help me by telling the name of the persons (at least 20 persons) who have got the recognition from The Hon'ble Governor of West Bengal ?" As you have told that the honor from The Hon'ble Governor of West Bengal is frequently given.

Lahiri has written four independent books and worked in many collective anthology which have ISBN, which also has no importance to you.

Delete - It appears WP:TOOSOON for this article to be sufficiently supported per WP:CREATIVE or WP:BASIC by independent and reliable sources. For example, sources in the article include The ProgSpace, which appears to be a promotional blog, Folk N' Metal, which appears similar, as does Mythologica, and there is a source that is essentially an advertisement. "Legendary online magazine" Kurgan Compass announces her tour with a band, and announces a new song with one line of secondary commentary, and there is a report by Dextero about her viral TikTok performance of video game music, without context about her or her career. I have not found better sourcing in an online search. Beccaynr (talk) 20:57, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Beccaynr. I agree with her source analysis with the exception of the folknrock website which has editorial oversight over staff writers (Jeff Goble is the chief editor) and as such would likely pass a source review as RS.

The project assessments too are poor, bearing in mind the assessment criteria for RS content. C-Class is way too good.

No conclusion can be drawn based on C-class assessments. For most project, C-class represents the absolute bare minimum of having references, appropriate structure, and general coherence. Further, it is not 'awarded' by a project, but rather by a single editor of unknown expertise (and the first assessment given is usually used to populate the entire set, rather than separate assessments being performed for each project). A C-class assessment is no indication of notability. Agricolae (talk) 11:27, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i'm not sure how a standalone article on a company's seal/logo is notable or encyclopedic in this case - it doesn't appear to have significant in depth coverage in rs in any language and what little can be sourced can probably just be placed in the company's article.

Merge to Silja Line. There's some coverage, but niche/unreliable (at least one cited source boldy declares itself to be a press release). There's room in the target article to absorb this. -_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 14:30, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD discussion includes a proposal for merger to Silja Line, and a notice of the proposed merger was posted to that page on June 25. As such, this AfD discussion may need to be extended or relisted to incorporate input from that page. Thanks, Kevin McE (talk) 15:44, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge, but it would probably be good to have Estonian/Finnish input to see if it has any real merit (I see there is an article at Finnish Wiki). Advertising characters can go on to have multifaceted careers, but the test would be whether it has any meaningful reference away from the ferry company, as others in the category 'Advertising characters' presumably have.

Comment A close parallel exists in the case of Ville Viking and Viking Line, but there I have simply proposed a merger. Kevin McE (talk) 16:27, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as per above. I'm not seeing any meaningful coverage in Finnish media. Fi.wp cites mostly non-independent sources. There are two Markkinointi & Mainonta stories, but I've always felt a bit iffy about how independent that magazine can actually be seen as. The vibes I'm getting is more along the lines of "glorified press releases/marketing" rather than proper journalistic content. In any case, the stories are not much either: [10] ("we made a new logo which is no longer smiling"), [11] ("there's an interactive screen with the mascot on it on one tram stop"). Ljleppan (talk) 08:07, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per all. The substance of this article comes from press releases and other inappropriate sources. There is a compromise to merge and there might be enough reliable material to preserve after someone removes the marketing/PR stuff. Jontesta (talk) 01:40, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Loch Naver[edit]

Keep But the Loch is Notable, and the sources have information. Especially under the Fishing Section. It is like Loch Urigilll or Loch Borollan or Loch Rimsdale or Loch Hope or Loch Brora, why didn't they ever get proposed for deletion, they're smaller, more remote and are less important that Loch Naver? I don't understand. N1TH Music (talk) 17:59, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep this seems to be a resonably sized lake and there seems to be coverage[12][13]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:59, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but tidy. Loch exists, is large enough and seems notable enough. However the article needs a real clean up, removal of inappropriate references and I'd love to know where all these settlements around it are as only Alltnaharra seems to actually exist. Canterbury Tail talk 23:14, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
OS Cites all 4 as existing as does Canmore and others, particularly Klibreck which is cited by all maps I found. Also Ben Klibreck exists N1TH Music (talk) 14:17, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place, but even on the OS maps I cannot find any settlements by the name of Redhackaistelll and Dailmallhart situated on the loch. Canterbury Tail talk 14:25, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Canterbury Tail here on second thought it is a map and might not be reliable but it's still produced by OS. Also I think you spelled Reidhachaisteil wrong or maybe I did because if I search it up I get many results including a source from Canmore which I think we can all agree is reliable. N1TH Music (talk) 17:04, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So that's a dead abandoned settlement of a few houses, not an active settlement. No one lives there, so they're not settlements. Don't you see how much of this is original research and WP:SYNTHESIS to reach the wrong conclusion? Canterbury Tail talk 17:58, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Canterbury Tail I understand the part about how a dead settlement maybe shouldn't be listed in the settlements section, even though my judgement was if the place is or was populated than it counts, but I was probably wrong. But honestly, no I don't see how this is "Original Research" OS and Canmore both show me these localities or abandoned settlements or whatever they are called and I label them as settlements. The OS map writes them in a kind of text they would use for settlements and so does the map Canmore provides. Additionally the Canmore map (Which is an edition of OS) Lists places such as "Gravel Pits" "Sheepfolds" and other things I would associate with active settlements there. However if you remain certain that these do not classify as settlements that nobody has any issue with removing them from the list. N1TH Music (talk) 18:36, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Something which has hitherto not been mentioned regarding issues of active or abandoned settlements is that the population of this area was impacted by the events of the Sutherland Clearances two hundred years ago. For example, "Soon afterwards Sellar went to Achness, near the eastern end of Loch Naver, and gave formal notice to quit to some of the tenants on his land."

Keep and improve: This article was brought to AfD less than 15 minutes after it was created? I am not sure how much WP:BEFORE was done in that time, but that could have identified existing coverage such as the article (albeit brief) in the Gazetteer for Scotland. As things stand, it is a bit of a mess, with the article creator having responded by moving it to draft, and neither the draft nor the redirect carrying this AfD notification. AllyD (talk) 07:17, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the history of use of the Loch, see also the summary in Groome's 19th century Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland [15] and the Canmore entry on the Grummore Broch: "This broch ... occupies a short, flat, projecting point of low ground on the north shore of Loch Naver ... On the low, fertile ground around the shores of Loch Naver stand many modern farms as well as two more brochs on the opposite shore." [16]. AllyD (talk) 07:42, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A little WP:AGF re WP:BEFORE, please?

. I saw the article shortly after it was created as I was doing NPP at the time. There were approximately 50 or so links in the article in its original version. I went through them, and from what I could tell they were either just maps of the area or references to places nearby. By that point there had been no additional content to the references (the additional references added were after I tagged it for AfD yesterday). My logic was given the creator was able to add 50+ links to the article but couldn't find anything that actually supported notability, then they likely didn't exist or could not be easily located (I didn't know about the CIR issues raised at ANI at the time). Anyway, given there are better sources, I have no objection to the article staying with a major clean up. Singularity42 (talk) 18:51, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It is a bad practice to send a 14 minute old article to AFD. There are many alternative to automatic deletion and this is highly discouraging to content creators. It would have been better to open a conversation with the page creator rather trying to delete an article as soon as it has been created. The page creator was incorrect to move a page involved in an AFD discussion to Draft space but that could have been a move you made rather than advocating immediate deletion for a new article.

IA Financial Group[edit]

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

Article about a company, not properly referenced as passing WP:GNG or WP:CORPDEPTH. As always, companies are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to have their significance externally validated by reliable source coverage and analysis in media and books -- but the only "source" here is the company's own self-published fact sheet about itself. (There's one other footnote, but it's a clarifying note about the company name — "iA Financial Group is a business name and trademark of Industrial Alliance Insurance and Financial Services Inc." — rather than an external reference.)
And while there were other sources here in the past which got stripped in a recent clumsy rewrite by a brand-new editor with a very likely conflict of interest (user name = Inalco, which almost certainly stands for Industrial Alliance Corporation), it was still sourced entirely to content self-published by the company itself and/or simple business directories rather than reliable or notability-supporting journalism, so simply reverting the most recent edit wouldn't solve the problem.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the company from having to be referenced properly. Bearcat (talk) 12:37, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - The WP:SUSTAINED guideline states, sustained coverage is an indicator of notability, as described by notability of events, and this is an event article, so to help avoid deletion per WP:NOTNEWS policy, analyzing available sources according to the WP:EVENT guideline is helpful. The WP:EVENT guideline was formed with the intention of guiding editors in interpreting the various pre-existing policies and guidelines that apply to articles about events, including WP:GNG (i.e. "a topic is presumed to have met the criteria for notability if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject") and its relationship to WP:NOT#NEWS (i.e. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of news material). There are a variety of criteria that can be applied.

1) WP:LASTING, Events are often considered to be notable if they act as a precedent or catalyst for something else. This may include effects on the views and behaviors of society and legislation. There appears to be no indication in the available coverage that the inability to find her body has had a lasting effect on e.g. society or legislation. There also appears to be no impact on the related criminal case, e.g.

"Dornan: Prosecutors don't need body He says there is "significant" evidence to prove Jessica O'Grady's death" Zagurski, Kristin. Omaha World - Herald 10 June 2006 (via Proquest, abstract only),
"EDWARDS' MURDER TRIAL BEGINS TODAY A quest for justice, closure Loved ones still hope to find Jessica O'Grady's remains", Cooper, Todd. Omaha World - Herald 19 Mar 2007 (via Proquest, abstract only).

There is another burst of news in 2009/2010, e.g.

"World-Herald Exclusive: JESSICA O'GRADY CASE" Cooper, Todd. Omaha World - Herald 25 Apr 2009 (via ProQuest, abstract only, states only: "A trace amount of Omaha victim Jessica O'Grady's blood is found on the blade of a suspect's sword The key differences Unlike the car in the Murdock case, Douglas County prosecutors say, Edwards' room was not under the exclusive control of law enforcement."),
"World-Herald Exclusive: Kofoed charged with tampering" Ferak, John. Omaha World - Herald 23 Apr 2009 (via ProQuest, abstract only, includes "The Douglas County CSI director, who has processed evidence in numerous high-profile murder cases, faces criminal charges for his handling of evidence in a Murdock, Neb., double homicide."),
"WORLD-HERALD EXCLUSIVE: Edwards alleges evidence planted" Ferak, John. Omaha World - Herald 14 July 2010 (via Proquest, abstract only, includes, "Dunning said authorities collected overwhelming blood evidence from Edwards' residence"),

which do not appear to demonstrate WP:LASTING effects from the criminal case or the inability to find her body. In 2011, local news reported Cadaver Dog Leads To Reopening Of O'Grady Murder Case (KETV7) and provided a timeline of past events. In 2014, local news reports on a court hearing related to these allegations and mentions O'Grady's body still has not been found: Was Christopher Edwards convicted with planted evidence? (KETV7); in 2016, The Associated Press reports Nebraska man convicted in sword slaying loses appeal, local news interviews her family members in What happened to Jessica O'Grady? (KETV7), and in 2018, The Associated Press reports Court denies convicted killer's appeal. Based on this coverage, it also appears there was no WP:LASTING impact from the criminal case.

2) WP:GEOSCOPE includes An event affecting a local area and reported only by the media within the immediate region may not necessarily be notable. Coverage of an event nationally or internationally may make notability more likely, but such coverage should not be the sole basis for creating an article. For this article, the event is mostly covered by local news, and coverage on the niche programming Forensic Files and Investigation Discovery does not appear sufficient to support this article, particularly as this guideline also emphasizes demonstrable long-term impact on a significant region of the world or a significant widespread societal group as key to supporting notability, which appears to be lacking per the sources.

3) WP:INDEPTH notes coverage must be significant and not in passing, which includes analysis that puts events into context. This includes TV news specialty shows, not necessarily a narrative news presentation [24] (how the Investigation Discovery episode appears promoted) but possibly the Forensic Files episode. The routine news coverage and passing mentions related to her disappearance and the related criminal case do not appear to support notability per this guideline.

4) WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE states, The duration of coverage is a strong indicator of whether an event has passing or lasting significance, and most of the available coverage appears to focus on the criminal case and appeals unrelated to the inability to find her body.

5) WP:DIVERSE notes, Wide-ranging reporting tends to show significance, and there does not appear to be a particularly wide range between the local news, the two AP reports about the criminal case appeal, and two episodes of niche crime television to show the significance of the inability to find her body. Circumstantial evidence was used to obtain a conviction, even though her body was not found, and appeals based on alleged defects in the investigation and other procedural issues were unsuccessful.

6) Per WP:NCRIME, Articles about criminal acts [...] are frequently the subject of deletion discussions. As with other events, media coverage can confer notability on a high-profile criminal act, provided such coverage meets the above guidelines and those regarding reliable sources. The disappearance of a person would fall under this guideline....

John Hais Hardee Jr.[edit]

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

No evidence of notability. Seems to be part of an attempt to write a family history, where some members are notable, some borderline, and some like this one have no actual claim to notability. Perhaps an article on the Hardee family would be better, with this then as a redirect, but as a standalone article it just doesn't make the cut. Sources are primary or involved (written by family members), and looking for better sources gave no useful results. Fram (talk) 13:00, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I don't have perfect visibility to the sources, but the sources I can access indeed appear to either discuss the family in the aggregate (ref #2) or to be non-independent (ref #5 has same surname, ref #6 starts with "..my grandfather.."). As for Seasider53's argument, military rank alone (let alone a rank as relatively low as a major) is not sufficient to establish notability. See WP:NSOLDIER. Search engines are giving me only the standard non-reliable sources (geni, legacy, findagrave etc.) I'll happily change my vote if someone can identify actual notability establishing coverage, but at the moment I'm not seeing it.

Delete we used to consider that all holders of at least the rank of brigadier general (in the US system, other systems use different names) were notable. We have since decided even that was not a justified inclusion standard. Majors are way, way, way, way below the inclusion critieria. Wikipedia is not the place to post the family history research you have done on one of your ancestors, unless they are clearly meeting inclusion criteria. Wikipedia is not an alternative to Ancestry or several other sites that allow you to post information on your family. That is no our purpose.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:46, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How many wrong conclusions can you jump to in one paragraph? A lot, apparently. Seasider53 (talk) 18:16, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Hardee is not listed in Heitman's "Historical Register and Dictionary of the U.S. Army," which is an extremely inclusive list of all officers commissioned in the army between 1789 and 1902. The son, William, is listed, but neither John Jr. nor John Sr. are listed. This does not preclude their being commissioned in a state militia, but it's pretty definitive when it comes to the Regular Army (regardless of commissioning source). So even if majors were considered notable (and they aren't), the rank can't be verified using a standard secondary source. Intothat darkness 23:22, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dejavu (2022 film)

Unreleased film that does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines. This article does not say anything about significant coverage of the film by independent sources, because there may not have been any. The two references are both only announcements of the film and the teaser, and so are not independent.

Reference Number	Reference	Comments	Independent	Significant	Reliable	Secondary
1	cinemaexpress.com	Announcement of film and its star and of the teaser	No	Yes	Yes	No
2	dtnext.in	Announcement of film and of teaser	No	Yes	Yes	No

An article was created in article space, and was then moved correctly to draft space by User:Khgk. This copy was then created in article space, perhaps in order to game the system. Since there is already a draft, this version should be deleted as too soon. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:57, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Amnesty International, HRW, Freedom House and many international organizations recognized him as a political prisoner. How many times has he been a candidate in parliament? Although he was elected as a deputy according to many organizations in the last election, the election in that region was canceled by the YSK.

Keep. Appears to pass WP:SIGCOV based on the cited sources in the article which address the subject "directly and in detail". Without a source analysis demonstrating why these sources do not constitute independent significant coverage, I am not seeing a strong argument for deletion from either Alexandermcnabb or Kadi based in GNG. Further the fact that we lack articles on certain content (such as awards or publications) is not an indicator for or against the notability of that content. Wikipedia lacks coverage on many notable topics, which is why we are constantly adding new content to the encyclopedia. Additionally, the awards for his work as a journalist in his native country indicate he passes criteria 4 of WP:JOURNALIST. 4meter4 (talk) 17:16, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails GNG and is written a little bit like an advertisement. The sources for the article are not secondary, independent, or reliable. Because of this it is really hard to say it’s notable. Just because an organization exists does not mean it is notable. I tried to find something that would make this article notable but couldn't. The book publisher does get cited but the citations are for the books it prints not for the publisher.

Keep Well, this was interesting. While WP:OUTCOMES tells us that, indeed, "Ambassadors are not considered inherently notable", Category:Ambassadors of the United Kingdom has over 200 subcategories, most of which are embassies and all of which, as per a dip in and out of a few of 'em, are bluelinked. On that basis, yes yes I know about WP:OTHERSTUFF, we are clearly considering that Ambassadors, at least British ones, ARE notable.

- A few editors churning out huge amounts of junk articles that fail every and any inclusion criteria is not how we build concensus. Wikipedia has no grandfather clause, and was built initially with no inclusion criteria at all, so the existence of articles in and of themselves shows neither consensus nor that such articles conform to inclusion criteria.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:02, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete no, ambassadors are not default notable, and we routinely delete articles on ambassadors that lack sourcing to meet GNG. GNG is not met here, and the argument that we should keep this undersourced article because of other articles that do not meet inclusion criteria is not a good one and should not be given any consideration at all. In the case of UK ambassadors to Finland we only have articles on about half of them. A large number of ambassadors are people who are notable for othere things, so the number of articles we have on ambassadors should not be used to show that ambassadors as a class are notable, and with about half of the UK ambassadors to Finland lacking articles, the argument that we should keep this article just because we have many other articles on ambassadors completely falls on its face.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:58, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

All information sources are real. You can simply google Tanim Hayat Khan Rajit. This guy represented Bangladesh in international platform in Commonwealth Games Australia in 2018 and the interview with SBS Australia is a significant proof of that. Strong evidence as such and few more are good enough. Otherwise, I'm happy to reduce the content as you are saying is too much without backing up. Well, not every single information can be backed up.

Mr. Noel has indeed worked with a lot of notable musicians, behind the scenes as a songwriter, arranger, backing band member, etc. ([42]) If he has made an honest living in this fashion, kudos to him. But for his article here, notability is not inherited from the famous people he has backed. I can find nothing reliable and significant on him and his career in their own right, and most of his visibility is only in the credits for other people's works. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:48, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dana Gordon[edit]

AfDs for this article:

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

This painting has absolutely no notability for a stand-alone article at WP. The sources only cite references that back generalized comments about the artist; not the actual painting. Any analytical content about the painting is purely "personal opinion" or "original research". The section Formal qualities have no references to back any claims. The section Purpose is pure speculation; and references cited do not back any claims for notable inclusion but mere mention of the artist, not the subject. The section Background is once again merely a personal opinionated take on the painting with absolutely no sources to back claims, again. This painting is of no significance and if there is anything to be mentioned about it, the content could easily merge with the artist's page. However, without sources to back any of the claims in this article, I can't see it being mentioned for any plausible reason. Maineartists (talk) 01:34, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete An engine search rendered no relevant or notable sources that review, discuss, analyze or even mention the painting other than what has been created in this article at WP and Wiki-linked. No historical significance or background for inclusion can be found in any source that would constitute inclusion. Maineartists (talk) 01:48, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete In the previous AfD for this article, I objected to deletion, and so did one other contributor. The article was kept. That didn't mean that I thought the article is any good: It's terrible. None of the online sources cited in the article mention the painting. The article if full of outright nonsense: "By 1972, Neel was nearing the end of her life..." Not true, she died 12 years later, in 1984. "Dana Gordon depicts an everyday man, presumably of middle or lower class. " Dana Gordon is a painter and writer, born in 1944. The article claims that the work is owned by the Neel Estate, but that failed verification: [43] The entire article is WP:OR, and none of it appears to be supported by RS. One day, it may be possible to write a properly sourced article, but the current version must be entirely rewritten or deleted. Vexations (talk) 11:28, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep As I said before - Strong painting by Alice Neel who had a major retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. A portrait of an important writer and artist who has been a prolific essayist and art critic in recent years...Modernist (talk) 11:38, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Read this by art critic James Panero: [44]...Modernist (talk) 11:38, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Modernist I think Alice Neel is one of the best and most important American modern painters, and I'd love it if we had articles on many of her paintings, but: Is there anything in this article that you think can be kept? Vexations (talk) 11:47, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Modernist That didn't hold water then, and it won't hold water now. Personal opinion does not warrant an article. I did read the article 3 times before nominating it for AfD. The article is about Dana Gordon the artist, and doesn't even mention the painting. As well: online sources regarding the "retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art" do not mention this painting. There is no significant or relevant sources that back your claim of its importance. Maineartists (talk) 12:00, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  Also, the painting wasn't in the MET retrospective. [45] Do we know where it is? I've searched auction records, but can't find it. Vexations (talk) 12:10, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  We do not. The article only speculates: "... the painting was most likely commissioned by the man for his own personal ownership, before being handed over to the Alice Neel Estate." The inline citations do not even back this claim. Maineartists (talk) 12:12, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Frankly, Dana Gordon is notable as an artist and writer. The article should reflect that and engage his complex biography...needs some competent editorial work. See this link...[46]...Modernist (talk) 13:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think both Alice Neel and James Panero are telling us that Dana Gordon is notable. The article definitely needs improvement though...Modernist (talk) 13:13, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

1. The article is not about Dana Gordon. 2. "I think" is not a reason for inclusion. Supply references to back your claim. 3. The article needs references. End of story. Maineartists (talk) Maineartists (talk) 13:31, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What on earth does this link have to do with the painting by Alice Neel? The segment on CBS Sunday Morning - "Artist Alice Neel, a collector of souls" last year never mentioned this painting; yet talked about her vast production of portraits. I'm not sure you understand how articles at WP actually work. Dana Gordon is not notable as an artist or writer. Otherwise, he would have his own article at WP. But that is completely beside the point. There is not one source that makes this painting (or its artist) notable. The link you provided is the artist's own website. The reference itself is mere promotional and not even a source for this painting or its article. Maineartists (talk) 02:18, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The painting itself lacks significant coverage in independent sources. The critical commentary on the painting is all original research. Clearly fails WP:OR and WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 20:35, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I understand Modernist's frustration since Alice Neel is an exceptionally important artist, and Dana Gordon an interesting artist and writer. However, if I'm not mistaken, the article is not about Gordon, it's about a portrait of Gordon, and the painting itself is not notable. It does seem like WP:OR, and that there significant coverage of the painting does not exist (at least not yet). If sources on the painting can be found, I'm happy to change my !vote, or if enough sources on Gordon himself can be found to create a stand alone article on him, then the painting can be included in that article. At this time it does not meet WP:GNG. Netherzone (talk) 20:03, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect for now, as the article is in terrible shape, and even its respective album article has hardly any prose. The current article has almost no substance - I started trimming out the overly wordy, flowery language, but stopped when I realized I'd trim it down to almost nothing if I kept going. I have no prejudice towards someone spinning it back out if someone decides to actually write a substantive article, as it's name did seem to garner some coverage. But unless someone does a massive rewrite/expansion in the coming days, the spin out isn't currently warranted. Sergecross73 msg me 13:06, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why is the language "overly wordy, flowery"? The article is not an artistic review. It is about the vision of math conveyed by the song and the reaction of math teachers to it.--Jorge Stolfi (talk) 21:37, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article, upon my first read of it, read as:

Consistent with its stated theme, the song lyrics are largely an emotional catharsis; mathematical terms are used only in a very superficial way. Presumably for that reason, the song seems to have little appeal to mathematicians, and even less to mathematics teachers.

This framing is insane for what this is. It's a guy with a guitar grumbling about math being hard, which mathematicians didn't like. There's way more concise (and better) ways to convey that message. Sergecross73 msg me 14:09, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first thing is not like the second thing. Jacona (talk) 10:15, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The song (not the album) is notable because it "was in fact promptly condemned by the US National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and the National Education Association for its alleged negative effect on children's education," as documented by the reference. I added a new ref to an article in a scholarly journal of education that cites and briefly discusses the song.--Jorge Stolfi (talk) 21:25, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The album this song came from debuted in the top ten of the US album sales chart, and already has 2 RS reviews in it. So the album the song is from is certainly notable according to WP:NALBUMS.
