  • Delete. The only source cited (here) hardly supports anything in this article. Furthermore, the article is confusing, saying, for example, that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer has given exclusive broadcast licensing rights to its films to Epix/Amazon Prime Video; AMC/IFC; USA Network/Syfy; Paramount Network/MTV/Nickelodeon; TBS/TNT/Cartoon Network/Turner Classic Movies; Disney Channel/Disney XD/Freeform/FX/FX Movie Channel; This TV; and Paramount+. If the rights deal was really exclusive, I wouldn't expect to see so many different broadcasting entities (owned by several different companies) holding the rights. This is an odd use of the word "exclusive". --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:53, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of tallest buildings in Raipur[edit]

Should be deleted for the same reasons as List of tallest structures in Isfahan, List of tallest buildings in Rajasthan and List of tallest buildings in Ludhiana. Some of the individual buildings are mentioned in the media but I see no reliable sources discussing in detail the topic of 'tallest buildings in Raipur' or discussing these 'skyscrapers' together as a group. The statistics in the article are a violation of WP:NOR.

It fails WP:LISTN. We can't even argue that the list is a useful navigation tool or index as none of the contents of the list are notable. Most importantly, this topic does not have WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS and there is clear consensus in all recent AfDs for "List of tallest buildings in ___" on this issue. See search results.

Michael Groth[edit]

Michael Groth (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)

Does not pass WP:GNG or WP:ARTIST. The three sources actually about this article's subject are two small human interest stories from a local news station (KPRC) and another small human interest story from the university he attends (neither of which, I'll add, are independent by nature of being interviews).

WP:BEFORE (which turned up nothing outside of the sources used here) shows that the absolute bottom of the barrel was scraped to find sources even tangentially related to Groth ("tangentially related" would even be a generous description of some of the sources). For example, four of the 11 sources are listicles from ScreenRant (borderline blog spam articles) that, in case of the second one for example, have one single item out of 10 being a screenshot of a meme posted to MandJTV's subreddit (not even made or posted by Groth himself) but zero mention of MandJTV; the only text about MandJTV in the article is the data pulled from the Reddit API which reads "r/MandJTV".

Meanwhile, things like the Business Insider source are a brief, inherently non-independent interview from Groth placed among several other terse interviews with YouTubers within the same article, not to mention the fact that it has nothing to do with Groth himself as a subject and is instead a story about a drop in ad revenue among YouTube creators.

In summary, the sources we have are:

  • Two small human-interest stories from local news channel KPRC.
  • One small human-interest story from Rice University.
  • One ScreenRant listicle about Poketubers that contains a bare-minimum, 107-word description of Groth's channel.
  • Three ScreenRant blog spam listicles about memes that have (I cannot emphasize this enough) literally nothing to do with Groth.
  • Two Business Insider articles that have a few words from Groth about YouTuber ad revenue among the words of several other YouTubers.
  • A short article from Sportskeeda (a source which covers such important topics on its front page as "4 best organic babyface turns from the Triple H era of WWE so far") regurgitating verbatim Groth's opinions on BDSP.

It feels like this article was WP:REFBOMBed, whether intentionally or not, to, respectively, give the subject a facade of notability or to pad out what would otherwise be a four-sentence stub. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 19:39, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I concur with the nom's detailed analysis that the references are poor. The first two references are routine interview-like coverage that does not seem to pass WP:SIGCOV IMO, whereas this is a listicle that comes nowhere near to WP:SIGCOV as well. Next, there are numerous bottom-of-the-barrel listicles from ScreenRant, which is marginally reliable per WP:RSP, the coverage appear to be routine and trivial, in merely a few short paragraphs. Similarly, the Business Insider articles, which is generally reliable for its culture section but marginally reliable otherwise (I'm unsure if media articles are culture ones) cover routine subscriber and revenue details along with a few interview-like quotes, falling into a minor story per WP:GNG that is not WP:SIGCOV. My WP:BEFORE did not find sources that could demonstrate notability, only trivial mentions or non-SIGCOV routine coverage such as 1. Similarly, IMO WP:BASIC and WP:NARTIST are also failed.

Does not meet WP:GNG: Sole source is an apparent vanity published book about the author's family history, which claims the subject of this article as their putative progenitor. Zero results for the subject, the author, "Ninjo Vague", or "Vito Ninovagio" on Google Scholar, nothing significant in a Google Books search. Previously nominated for PROD, but I'm bringing it here to AfD following comments from the initial editor on the article talk page.

  • Delete The name Pedro Hernandez appears in books but none from this time period. As a Spanish name there would generally be more than the first/last name, and that might help find this person in historical works. Also, it isn't clear to me from this article if 1499 is the birth or the death date, and that would help connect this PH to any of the ones we do find. Without more sources, though, this article cannot stand. Lamona (talk) 22:35, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the book cited here is self-published by the "Ninivaggi" foundation, so not an independent source and possibly not a reliable source.

    I'd suggest not draftifying; there is nothing in the draft that would be useful in an article. And although it might become notable after it is released, it is equally likely that it won't.
    More importantly: there is already a draft, since the previous AfD discussion ended in a consensus to draftify. That draft was declined two days ago. The creator of the current article (who incidentally is evading a block, and who has ignored multiple warnings about promotional editing) chose to create a new article.

The fact that only entries for add-ons, enhancements, plugins and the like seems to have been a coincidence. The most recent time a AfD for an article of this style was closed as keep was Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comparison of Remote Music Performance Software (2020), so there's really not enough data to make the point you are trying to make with respect to current consensus .

    Sometimes arguments are made that other articles have been put forward for AfD and survived/deleted (the most famous example being the Pokémon test); these may be effective arguments.

  • Delete. I disagree with citing previous AfDs as a reason for deletion here. The main problem to me is that there are no independent, secondary and reliable coverage of free geophysics software as a whole. Thus, this fails WP:NLIST.

While the game is between the #1 and #2 ranked teams in country, the game was one sided and incredibly regular. It's not a notable game that will be of interest for the future. The game can be discussed reasonably at 2022 Tennessee Volunteers football team, 2022 Georgia Bulldogs football team and Game of the Century (college football). Esolo5002 (talk) 07:02, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Some might say that because of the one-sided nature of the football game means that it must need to be deleted. However, the game is deserving of a page because it is a rivalry game, which makes the game special for it to be of the No. 1 and No. 2-ranked teams. Plus, it wasn't as much as a blowout as No. 1 Ohio State's 24-7 win over No. 2 Texas in 2006. HurricaneDeci (talk) 01:49, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • The poll era started in 1936. In 87 years, there have only been 25 regular-season games matching No. 1 vs. No. 2. In the past 15 years, it's only happened two other times: 2011 LSU vs. Alabama football game and 2019 LSU vs. Alabama football game -- both of which have stand-alone articles. Cbl62 (talk) 04:01, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete redirect to rivalry page. Article shows only WP:ROUTINE coverage of an average game. CC WP:EVENT WP:CFBGAME No. 1 vs. No. 2 is the only possible aspect that increases its notability, and the game itself failed to live up to any pre-game hype. PK-WIKI (talk) 14:58, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above. No significant, non-routine coverage provided. 1 vs. 2 games have occurred on a semi-frequent basis (about once every 3.5 seasons in the regular season alone per user:Cbl62) so the 1 vs 2 matchup doesn’t automatically make it notable for a standalone article. The game itself was rather run-of-the-mill as evidenced by only WP:ROUTINE coverage and game reports being available. Frank Anchor 05:11, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Changed to redirect per below comments. I generally support using WP:ATDs when a suitable merge/redirect target is identified. I maintain my above argument as this game is not notable as a stand-alone article. Frank Anchor 18:51, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect or partial merge with Georgia–Tennessee football rivalry. The game IMO is quite notable. Regular season matches between No. 1 and No. 2 are quite rare -- it's only happened three times in the last 15 years. However, the game can best be dealt with in the context of the existing rivalry article. Perhaps add a not-quite-so-detailed description to the rivalry article discussing the 2022 game. Summaries of the game can also be included in 2022 Georgia Bulldogs football team and 2022 Tennessee Volunteers football team. Cbl62 (talk) 02:51, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - although the article should be significantly improved to avoid promotionalism, I'm seeing enough significant coverage in reliable, independent sources to meet WP:GNG. The Sydney Morning Herald and Canberra Times articles, plus an Adelaide Advertiser article I found, speak to notability, not to mention the many more trivial mentions in reliable, independent sources. Also seeing some coverage in academic sources (such as this one). —Ganesha811 (talk) 00:01, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The academic paper has only a passing mention. The Advertiser article is 404 to me. The Canberra Times is a couple of passing mentions. That piece is focused on activities of ex-politicians, some of whom are involved in Bespoke, but WP:NOTINHERITED is relevant here. SpinningSpark 15:54, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree, it's possible that Ian Smith is notable but that the firm is not. However, as I continue to search, things keep coming up: this article from Crikey, further mentions in the Advertiser (1, 2). (I should note that Crikey seems less than ideal in terms of reliability, however). To me, the Canberra Times article meets the threshold for significant coverage. It's a borderline case, but I still lean keep. —Ganesha811 (talk) 22:52, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong keep: I have previously refrained from commenting due to a COI - I am acquainted with the editor who created the article IRL, as we move in similar circles / community organisations related to environmental conservation and arts events. (Adelaide isn't a huge city, and the number of WP editors here isn't large.)
I'd like to make the following points:
1. For the benefit of non-Australian editors, I can confidently say there is significant coverage of Bespoke Approach in print media. However, both the local daily, The Advertiser, and the national daily, The Australian, are News Corp mastheads which put their content behind paywalls back in 2011. (FYI, Adelaide is where Rupert Murdoch started his now global media empire.) Although I'm not a News Corp subscriber, I do have some older press clippings I can use for refs to improve the article.
2. To those editors arguing for deletion on the grounds of the article being "too promotional", I'd say that their interpretation is, ironically, rather superficial, and misguided. AFAIK the article was started as part of a laudable attempt using published data to map the influence of lobbyists attempting to influence politicians and the general public prior to and during the course of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission, which was set up to assess whether South Australia could make megabillions by hosting a global repository for high-level nuclear waste. That idea has been around for some time, e.g. 1, 2.
As the old Yorkshire saying has it, "where there's muck, there's brass". I'm also reminded of the saying attributed to Bismark: "Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made". IMHO, the article throws a much-needed light on some of the sausage-making machinery, and deserves to be retained. Bahudhara (talk) 01:19, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
As far as casting light on the issue, this may fall into the WP:ITSUSEFUL fallacy. There are plenty of cases where more information on the activities of advocacy groups could be beneficial to the general public, but that's not necessarily the purpose of Wikipedia. Chagropango (talk) 06:46, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is a company/organization therefore WP:NCORP guidelines apply. There are particular criteria for establishing the notability of a company. Also, unless blatantly obvious (e.g. Blog posts, no attributed journalist, Forbes contributors, etc), I'm assuming all the sources are reliable and the publishers are corporately independent from the topic organization - but there's more requirements than just "RS" for establishing notability.
  • Since the topic is an organization, WP:NCORP criteria apply. As per WP:SIRS *each* reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - the quantity of coverage is irrelevant so long as we find a minimum of two references that meet NCORP criteria. Each reference must involve deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and also the in-depth information must be "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.
Clearly the founders/directors have been written about in various articles but the topic is the organization and not the directors. Bahudhara says that there may be references behind paywalls but from the limited access I have to archived newspapers, I am unable to locate any reference that meets NCORP.

  • Delete Even though the article has WP:INDEPENDENT sources such as [[2]] [[3]] it lacks a deep coverage about the WP:ORGDEPTH. The article also has some part of self promotional content Pranesh Ravikumar (talk) 06:25, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete I don't doubt there is lots of press on Bespoke, however the Canberra Times article does not have in depth coverage of Bespoke, so the only independent, reliable, and in-depth coverage currently cited is the Sydney Morning Herald article. If, as Bahudhara says, there are locally available print sources that establish notability, there needs to be some additional verification of this and the editorial quality of those sources. Chagropango (talk) 06:43, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete with merge of content & redirect to Ian Smith (lobbyist). It seems to me there are only two references found so far that could potentially meet NCORP criteria: Sydney Morning Herald and Crikey (the Canberra Times and Financial Review articles lack significant coverage). But of the two, the Crikey article is essentially about Ian Smith, not Bespoke. If more significant coverage beyond these two references are dug up, it could meet NCORP clearly but as it stands it doesn't meet the bar. -SpuriousQ (talk) 05:40, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete or merge into smart object. This article claims they're a "further development" of IoT, but wireless sensors already existed, so the "development" appears to be... attaching things to things? I suspect this page was created as a stealth ad for Estimote. mi1yT·C 08:24, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't see how "already existed" is an argument for deletion. One could say the same thing about Internet of things – the internet certainly already existed and things on the internet (that is, addressable things with sensors) already existed. SpinningSpark 09:32, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Hm. I agree with what you say but disagree with your conclusion, so I'll try to express the same thing differently: this seems to me like it's not a substantially separate concept from smart objects, and the only new development is that some company made up a word for marketing purposes. That, in itself, does not deserve a separate page, in my view. Maybe a redirect, given that people do seem to use the word sometimes. mi1yT·C 08:14, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Perhaps a merge of a few sentences is in order? ––FormalDude (talk) 09:26, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I would not object to that if people feel there's salvageable content, and I've updated my !vote above to say so. mi1yT·C 07:13, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @3mi1y: I agree that nearables are a class of smart object, but they are hardly a synonym so, yes, they are a "substantially different concept". Mobile device, wearable technology, and modern printer (computing) are all also smart objects but not nearables. We can, in principle, have as many articles on subsets of smart objects as we want. The only question to answer is whether there is enough material available to fill a standalone page. SpinningSpark 08:37, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The subject is clearly notable, but the article likely needs to be reframed to be about a term which failed to catch on rather than an actual class of devices. Chagropango (talk) 06:50, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm having trouble buying "failed to catch on". The results in gscholar are spread from 2014 to the present year. The (often inaccurate) count by google says there are 520 results, but I have checked through to verify that there are at least 100 papers using the term. As far as I can see, they are all in the context of our article. Similarly, gbooks has dozens of results spread from 2015 to 2022. SpinningSpark 08:19, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The theme of the page is the same as the Mo Dao Zu Shi, these two pages should delete one of them or merge them. Rastinition (talk) 03:05, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there are numerous differences between the original novel and the donghua, which is an adaption for it to share the same page.They both deserve their own pages,as having them under the same pages will make it contradictory.
Also, if that is the problem, then " The Untamed," which is another adaption should also be considered for deletion going by your opinion since the theme is similar enough.
Many other popular fiction have difference pages for the source material and its adaptions.A Song of Ice and Fire has its own page dedicated to the novel and there's a separate page for its TV show Games of Throne. Same with Tolkien's books and adaptions.What makes their pages different then ours? They should also be considered if going by your view.
Another question is why has there is several citation removal, as well as structural changes made to our page without any explanation? Shadowyblue09 (talk) 03:34, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Didn't you know that tumbex is a mirror site of tumblr? And tumblr is a blog site.If you know that and keep using those links, then I'd say you're trying to make link farms. Rastinition (talk) 03:40, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Note that Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources.
I do not recommend setting up unreliable sources. I think there is already a corresponding discussion in the past, I don't need additional explanations, such as why not use facebook. Rastinition (talk) 03:46, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, sure we can change the citations, so please let use look at it without trying to revert my changes again. I think we are allowed that much time to go back and look into it to change unreliable sources. Are we not?
I do not get what you mean by," why not use Facebook"?
Most importantly, Why is our page being considered for deletion just because it's adaptions, which are vastly differing in plots in important places, has it's own page? Shadowyblue09 (talk) 03:55, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I illustrate with a hypothetical example.Superman has comics, movies, and novels, but these contents should all be recorded in Superman.If you need to set up multiple pages because of too much content, you can discuss splitting into Superman (comic), Superman (movie), and Superman (novel).So my text uses delete one of them or merge them Rastinition (talk) 04:03, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Superman is a character, not a book or a show.A novel with various adaption is a much better comparison. If a popular western novel can have its own page and its adaption on separate page, such as I wrote before, " A Song of Ice and Fire" I don't see why we can't keep these two? Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:13, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please undo your changes so I can check it in it's original form (when i last edited) as that will make it easier for me to see where I have unreliable sources and remove them. Also, makes it easier for me to add reliable source. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:19, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If a theme is large enough to set up several different pages, WP:disambiguation should be used. Rastinition (talk) 04:33, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"Disambiguation in Wikipedia is the process of resolving conflicts that arise when a potential article title is ambiguous, most often because it refers to more than one subject covered by Wikipedia, either as the main topic of an article, or as a subtopic covered by an article in addition to the article's main topic."

Also, please answer my question about the deletion. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:02, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The page used to be a draft and was moved to article without being reviewed by anyone.
If you restore the page to draft, then you can set up those links in order to improve the content, but when you intend to move the page to the article, please follow the instructions recorded in WP:Draft. As long as this page is an article, I don't agree that these links exist on that page. Rastinition (talk) 04:18, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but from the rule, it's stated as long as the user was auto- verified, then they could move page to article without having to be reviewed. That is all I have done. I can make changes now as long as you remove the deletion status and undo your changes. I get where you're coming from, but for us to remove this links, you need to undo your changes because now I am confused as to which we have to change and which you added. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:23, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, some of the sources that come from "unreliable" are being used because they are the official account of the person/company we are referring to. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:25, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not going to try to restore unreliable sources, or H:NOWIKI, I'm not going to try to hurt the wiki because of your request. Rastinition (talk) 04:29, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, sure remove those links, but still the point of this discussion is the deletion. I still haven't gotten your answer for that other than Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation's adaption having bit of similarities. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:33, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The main editor of the page is your account, and I confirmed with you that the Chinese name of that page is 魔道祖师, right? Because you also have activity records in Mo Dao Zu Shi ,I think you also checked the Chinese name of Mo Dao Zu Shi is 魔道祖师, right? When the Chinese names are exactly the same, you want me to believe that they have completely different themes and content?
But I quess what you actually mean is that these two pages should be reserved the pages with the names Mo Dao Zu Shi (animation) and Mo Dao Zu Shi (novel), right? Rastinition (talk) 04:47, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, they have same name and but unless you have actually read the original novel and watched the donghua in its entirety, how would you be able to see the differences? The theme is the same but due to the page " Mo Dao Zu Shi" being a adaption, it changed some plots that makes it differ from the original novel.
The novel is an explicit boy's love novel but the due to the nature of China, the donghua , ( Mo Dao Zu Shi the page) is censored. Due to this there is differences in plots. Having both of them in the same page will present conflicting plots. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:54, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes basically what i mean but I want the pages title to stay as it is right now. People are already familiar with these title and know which name will lead to what, so changing it now will just lead to more confusion. As you have already removed the unreliable links, I am sure that should to okay? Shadowyblue09 (talk) 04:58, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Are you still there? Shadowyblue09 (talk) 05:09, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, just noticed it right now but our page has been reviewed properly and went through the process, so I am not sure why you're claiming otherwise. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 05:13, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  1. These 2 pages are reserved after being renamed Mo Dao Zu Shi (novel) and Mo Dao Zu Shi (animation).
  2. Merge the page to Mo Dao Zu Shi, the page uses novel as the main content, and animation uses == animation == to set in the merged page Mo Dao Zu Shi.
I tend to choose one of these two. I should not change my mind again.2 is the original idea, 1 is the idea added after confirming the Chinese name.
Rastinition (talk) 05:19, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
So you want me to rename the two pages Mo Dao Zu Shi (novel) and Mo Dao Zu Shi (animation)? Shadowyblue09 (talk) 05:22, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
it's choose one of the two options right? Shadowyblue09 (talk) 05:24, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Weill you be okay with both of them being Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation but with (novel) and (animation). We want to use these names as these are the name being used to promote these works internationally. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 05:44, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The novel and the donghua has enough difference in plot and also in in their own medium based- details (donghua page as info on OSTs, VAs, artists and etc.) that wouldn't make sense to merge into one single page. This is enough to warrant them their own separate page. Also, as people have stated above, it will lead to inconsistencies and difficulties navigating. KanaWX (talk) 19:27, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I am not sure if bolded keep is important so coming back to do that. My points are above. Shadowyblue09 (talk) 19:31, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep As many have said before, while the novel name for the animation and the Donghua (animation) are the same name, the animation is largely different from the novel, which really does warrant it's own page (Just as how the Untamed is it's own page, yet, it's an adaption of MDZS, but due to the large amount of differences between the two, it has a separate page which information that can't be added to the novel page without it being cluttered up with conflicting information.) Also, in terms of "Unreliable sources" I get how social medias are not always a reliable source, however, many companies and celebrities have official accounts they use to announce key information, such as release dates, little facts here and there, and promotional stuff. For MDZS, the author herself (MXTX), as well as the official teams that are responsible for some of the various adaptations have official accounts they use for announcing information and promoting stuff. Even many reputable news agencies have social media accounts. So, before deleting citations, please look at the context of the links to see if they are official. Once again, this kind of thing of having different adaptations have their own page if there's significant amount of information and such that would otherwise clutter up a page, a page of its own would be created with references to it's overview page and vice versa. So no, I don't support the two pages being merged, and should be kept the way they are. Gsmith1030 (talk) 19:53, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: MDZS itself is certainly a notable novel, so deletion is definitely out of the question; if the articles are to be merged together, what needs to be done involves picking an article title to put everything under, and moving the content across, where applicable.

  • Comment: Coming here from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, I'd like to point out that AfD is the discussion venue for deletion, and not content issues such as merging or reference cross-checking. If there are content issues, they should be resolved via the article talk page, and not through AfD. Given that both the novel and the animation meet WP:GNG, and the nominator mentions content merging as the primary reason for this AfD nomination, I'm inclined to believe that this is not exactly an appropriate use of AfD. There are no grounds for article deletion, which is the purpose of raising AfD discussions. --benlisquareTCE 12:08, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Sejdić and Finci v. Bosnia and Herzegovina. I've prepared a source assessment table (note I used Google Translate for non-English sources), and I'm not finding too much more aside from these. His real notable quality is his involvement in the constitution case but doesn't seem to be notable outside of that, I don't think an article is warranted here. More than happy to be proven wrong, though. —Sirdog (talk) 07:26, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Utterly non-notable guy, fails the GNG going away -- all the sources are primary or (like all those legal case links) do not count towards notability. Meets no notability criteria.

  • Delete This reads like a vanity piece and the only media coverage I can find of him are in the New York Weekly and the Baltimore Post Examiner. I'm not sure that coverage in these publications could not be bought. Even if it can't, it's still not enough to be described as WP:SIGCOV. Chagropango (talk) 04:17, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: Clearly meets WP:GNG and WP:NBIO. If you look at the companies he has founded and the various cases that he has been mentioned in, it is clear that Albrizio is certainly not a "round of the mill" businessman. Additionally, he has been a major contributor to the Kennedy family's campaigns. With a significant presence in both the business world and the U.S. political scene, he is definitely not just another non-notable person. There are many similar biographies on Wikipedia where the subjects are just as notable as Albrizio, if not less so. Thus, I would strongly urge everyone to take a closer look at Albrizio's notability before placing a vote here. Mazamarkos (talk) 23:09, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep or merge and redirect. This appears to be a prime example of the difficulty of determining internet notability versus traditional notability. This term has huge circulation on the internet and has been the subject of quite a bit of independent commentary and analysis (in addition to the referenced sources, see this article). The current article adds little value beyond the current Wiktionary entry, but it could easily be expanded to include more information on the history and usage of the term. There should really be some kind of metric other than mentions in major publications, because if a term is appearing millions of times on social media, it is verifiably notable even if the documentation of it is lacking in media coverage (although in the case of copium, I think it passes WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV according to existing standards). This is actually just a variant of the emergence of increasingly common use of the word "cope" as a noun, which has spread rapidly in recent years in youth and internet subcultures. Another possibility might be to include this and similar terms (like those mentioned in this article) on another page, maybe Internet Slang or something similar. If this article is kept as a stub, there may very well be more content to add in the coming months and years, however I acknowledge that this may be a case of WP:TOOSOON. Chagropango (talk) 05:33, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Soft redirect to wiktionary:copium or Weak Keep, I was able to find 2 SIGCOV of copium, but not too sure if it can surpass WP:NOTDICT:
If an article on the "cope" internet slang existed, that would be the best AtD as it could cover this variant well, but it doesn't so redirecting to Wiktionary is the best option here. Happy to reevaluate an improved article however. Jumpytoo Talk 07:17, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I wrote this article when I found the word "copium" being mentioned again and again in the context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, admittedly on Twitter. More particular it is often used in the context of the grandstanding of the Russian media claiming they fight a heroic struggle agains evil
Example: https://twitter.com/Evaien5/status/1593996710606405634.
Example: https://twitter.com/fakedavidmount/status/1568759960682795008
Example: https://twitter.com/LunariaTenebris/status/1591562542249377792
Better examples can probably be found.
Note in particular that due to the importance of this war, the use of the word "copium" will likely be of interest to historians.
Meanwhile, Wikipedia mentions copium only in the context of a moth species and an album of the wrapper Keak the Sneak neither of which is very helpful.
