Despite having 24 references, the subject doesn't satisfy notability. It's WP:REFBOMB, with every single mention and review they could find. Also possible COI/vanity page. Nswix (talk) 23:56, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The NYT, Billboard and NPR articles all seem to satisfy 'In-depth coverage', am I missing something? JeffUK 20:09, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as has significant coverage in multiple reliable sources such as AllMusic staff written bio here where there is also a staff album review, The New York Times here, NPR here, there is a dedicated article in the WSJ but its paywalled here, Billboard here and Rolling Stone here. In my view there is enough significant coverage in reliable sources to pass WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary, Atlantic306 (talk) 23:49, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I made this a long time ago, without citations. If possible, I would like this to be moved to my user space (e.g. User:Thivierr/sandbox or draftspace, or whatever is easy) and I may be able to provide appropriate citations and details to justify inclusion. A quick look at ProQuest shows some relevant hits, but I don't yet know if there's enough to justify an article. In its current state, the article can't be justified. --Rob (talk) 03:22, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Userfy or draftify per request. This is an old article (created in 2005) that met the inclusion and referencing standards of that time, but has obviously not kept up with the evolution in those standards over the intervening years — so it certainly doesn't meet contemporary requirements in this state, but the creator is a long-established Wikipedia contributor who's still around and should be given every opportunity to see if he can repair it. There are indeed hits in ProQuest that can be used; I don't know enough about her to fix this myself, but if Rob can't get into ProQuest to retrieve them, I'm willing to pull some PDFs.

  • Keep per @TheInsatiableOne. Jeffhardyfan08 (talk) 12:25, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete First, we don't keep articles on features just because they have a name; we've deleted plenty of them. Second, the English article is just a translation of the Russian article, which not incidentally is peppered with tags about the lack of citations. Third, of the two citations, the first is to (apparently) the index to an atlas, and the other fails: GMaps doesn't show this stream at all except in aerial view, and does not label it. I did not search in Russian because the English search shows that there are other features with the same name, and I did not think I could distinguish them from one another easily, but that English search returns almost nothing; I could find only a single reference in a paper on the char (fish) that could be construed as even vaguely amounting to coverage. I'm sorry, but I think this fails GNG emphatically. At any rate it needs sourcing, which I haven't been able to find. Mangoe (talk) 21:20, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete- Fails WP:NGEO, no meaningful references. PaulGamerBoy360 (talk) 02:03, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - No indication of notability since there's no significant coverage or information beyond location and statistics. Both the Russian and English articles are sourced to a single topo map (I'm not counting Google Maps). The Russian article only appears longer due to coverage of an unrelated territorial dispute. –dlthewave 13:03, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Tumen River. This is the Soviet era military name for the last 7km of this river; it forms the border between Russia and NK, its unremarkable and an unneeded CFORK that fails GNG. I don't find any usage which would indicate this was a commonly used name. NGEO states, "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc. The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article."  // Timothy :: talk  10:57, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see doing this. It's not claimed to be the same as the Tumen, and there's nothing in the latter's article about tributaries or the like. Mangoe (talk) 01:38, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Tumen River. Despite it not being the same as Tumen, however, do we really need a page strictly related to a stream of water that ultimately leads into the Tumen River? I mean I have a stream in my backyard it leads into a lake but I don't see a page for it. Swaggalicious (talk) 07:51, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a voice actor, not properly sourced as passing WP:NACTOR. As always, the notability test for an actor is not passed just because the article lists acting roles, and requires some evidence of third party analytical coverage about him and his performances in media to get him over WP:GNG -- but the only "sources" listed here are his own website and an IMDB-like voice acting directory, which are not notability-building sources, and he's so poorly sourceable that it's actually in question whether he's American or Irish by nationality, with the voice acting directory saying he was born in County Wicklow while his IMDB profile says he was born in Shawnee, Oklahoma, and no better sources have proven locatable to resolve that conflict at all.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to pass GNG on better sourcing than I've been able to find. Bearcat (talk) 21:33, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Article is essentially unsourced, with just a few footnotes citing directory listings and the actor's own website which is a primary source. Searches in Wikipedia Library and ProQuest turn up only a few passing mentions of his name in secondary sources (e.g. listing of his name in credits for Tales of Earthsea and mention that he is appearing at ComicCon along with other actors). Fails WP:BASIC and does not meet WP:GNG. There are other websites and blogs much better suited for promotional purposes than Wikipedia. Cielquiparle (talk) 08:51, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Possibly the "best" piece of coverage is a 2019 Q&A interview on the making of Hearthstone that appeared on Forbes.com, but it's written by a contributor and contributed articles to Forbes.com are not considered reliable sources on Wikipedia, plus it's essentially a primary source, and hence does not count toward notability.

Article is about a collection of tweets published as a book. The only cited source is the blog of the tweeter.

  • Comment: Looks like the book does actually exist. Using the title in Korea, I was able to find it in Google Books, where I also found the ISBN. Using that, I was able to find listings in both Amazon and WorldCat, complete with listings in various libraries. The Google Book view shows that it is official merch (so to speak) of the author. So now it's just a question of whether or not there's coverage. It looks like the book was likely never released in English, only Korean, so if any coverage exists it's going to be in that language. I'll see what I can find. Not fluent in Korean, but I am fluent in Google Translate, so there's that. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 17:20, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • For whatever reason my computer does not want to open any websites that originated in Korea. It's sometimes picky, probably firewall related. I did find a few hits in Google News, but no telling if they're actually usable. Of note is that they do seem to be pretty sparse. Here are the results, if anyone can get them to come up for you. I ran the previews and it looks like one is a merchant site, but another mentions that the book was a bestseller, but I can't tell more than that. I'm going to ask at the Korea WP if any of them can run a search to see what they can find. Offhand leaning towards probably non-notable since the previews otherwise didn't look very promising, but I'd like a search in Korean first.

  • Weak keep based on the Korean language sources described; not the best, but it seems the book exists and has some (minimal) critical notice. To be fair, the market for Korean books is small to begin with, so I don't expect to find a dozen reviews. Oaktree b (talk) 02:34, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Asilvering. This seems to be a coffee-table book by a person in Korea based on Cuelho's tweets, not a book by Cuelho as is implied. The sources Piotrus provides aren't particularly convincing, and suffer from the same problem as the article: they are about Cuelho rather than the book. Walt Yoder (talk) 03:29, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Lenoresm's source is more convincing, and after Doug Weller's edits the article is no longer promotional. Striking my vote - editors more familiar with the Korean media will have to decide this. Walt Yoder (talk) 15:27, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I found this Kukmin Ilbo article about the publication of Coelho's Maktub in Korean, which notes that Magic Moment sold over 200,000 copies in Asia. For anyone new to looking up news in Korean, here's a link to a search for the book on Naver News, which is Korean news aggregator. (And here's the same link sorted by oldest articles, in case that's helpful.) There are many mentions of the book being on the Korean Publishers Association's best sellers list throughout 2013. Lenoresm (talk) 04:39, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Week keep I'm convinced but I've also gutted the article, if anyone wants to restore, well, the material I removed was unsourced or sourced to Cuelho. I found a Phd thesis mentioning the illustrator and added that. But surely what we need is an article on Cuelho mentioning this? Doug Weller talk 13:37, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Is there an article about this book on the Korean WP? As its claim to notability is based on its reception in Korea, the existance of an article about it on the Korean WP might help here. (Understood that the Korean WP does not necessarily have the same standards for creating an article as we do.) - Donald Albury 17:35, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    No, but it is listed as a best seller in the article List of 2013 bestsellers in South Korea. :3 F4U (they/it) 07:20, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm heartened by the article Lenoresm found that (at least in google-translate-ese) says Coehlo "commissioned" it, but I still don't see any reason to keep this as a standalone article. All we appear to be able to say about it is that it exists and it sold over 200k copies; that's all the coverage is talking about, and it's not enough to build much of anything. The article is not, realistically, going to get any longer than it is at present. I'm not against stubs, but I don't see the purpose of this one - the chances that someone would be trying to find this book by searching Wikipedia for "The Magical Moment" seems slim-to-none, and they won't learn anything once they get there anyway. This would be more useful as a single sentence on Coelho's article, and as evidence for notability of the illustrator - who doesn't appear to have an article yet. -- asilvering (talk) 19:22, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Asilvering For the record, I think the Korean name of the illustrator is ko:황중환. What I read in the reviews suggests he may be notable indeed, but Korean Wikipedia doesn't have an article on him yet (a copyvio for someone with that name was deleted in 2009).

Yahya Birt[edit]

Yahya Birt (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)

Appears to Fail GNG, and probably WP:NACADEMIC. This one is an edge case. I searched for quite a while for RS that discuss Birt in detail, both under Yahya Birt and his birth name, Jonathan Birt. The most significant by far appears to be a short interview from 2006 in The Guardian, cited in the article. The other two — from The Economist and The Intercept, also cited in the article at present — appear to be passing mentions only. NACADEMIC Criteria 1a seems to be the only possible justification of notability — in Google Scholar, Birt does appear to have a decent amount of citations, but this is not the case in Scopus, either under Yahya Birt or Jonathan Birt. The Google Scholar counts appear to have some duplicates, and as discussed at NACADEMIC, it does not do a good job of filtering legitimate sources from illegitimate. WhinyTheYounger (WtY)(talk, contribs) 17:12, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This one seems like no harm in keeping, and he was interviewed in a notable newspaper as a subject expert: keep. BhamBoi (talk) 17:21, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think Guardian interviewed him as a subject expert — it's a short series of questions about his personal conversion, etc. No discussion of his work or the subject matter he is cited for (Islamophobia in Britain). WhinyTheYounger (WtY)(talk, contribs) 17:38, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
After coming back in and looking now, I think a case can be made that he passes NPROF C7 as he is quoted in The Intercept and The Economist. Also, being one of The 500 Most Influential Muslims is a pretty big deal, considering there are about 200 of them... BhamBoi (talk) 03:15, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I've just been through the list of books in the article, and find that there are two reviews of each Birt's first two books. This means that the books meet the requirements of Wikipedia:Notability (books). This isn't in itself an argument that Birt is notable, but keeping the article about him (and perhaps developing it with a bit more coverage of his notable publications) strikes me as neater and easier than creating new articles for the books. Since I don't see that Wikipedia gains anything by deleting this article and replacing it with articles on individual books, I suggest keep. Alarichall (talk) 20:08, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - The 28 Dec 2022 France Inter piece appears to be a podcast opinion post, so not really a news profile that could otherwise be stronger support. Based on what I can view of the 18 Mar 2023 Le Monde source, that looks like a news profile. But there does not seem to be WP:SUSTAINED coverage to help us write a balanced biography or more than a WP:BROCHURE at this time. I also removed content from the article that seems problematic per WP:BLP policy, and I think WP:BLP policy adds support for deletion at this time. WP:GNG is not the only consideration for notability; per WP:N, we should also consider WP:NOT, and this appears to be an article that should be excluded per e.g. WP:NOTSCANDAL (which links to BLP policy), and WP:PROMO (what seems to remain after problematic BLP content is removed). Beccaynr (talk) 23:51, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There's also this from Le Parisien [2] which discusses her legal issues in a neutral tone.Oaktree b (talk) 14:26, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:BLP policy is about more than the tone of coverage, and the brief 21 Feb 2023 Le Parisien report is filed in the "Faits divers" ("Miscellaneous facts", per Google Translate) section, opens by introducing Kenza as "Habituée des polémiques" ("Accustomed to controversy", according to Google Translate), reports allegations against her, her quotes, and mentions the Le Monde profile. Overall, the limited available coverage appears to focus on scandal/WP:BLP problems - coverage includes her statements (not independent), scandal and gossip (not encyclopedic), allegations of criminal conduct (which we should seriously consider not including) related to children (see WP:AVOIDVICTIM) over a limited time, mixed in with mentions of how popular she has recently been on social media. Deletion policy seems to support deletion under these circumstances.
    From my view, trying to construct a biography based on limited mentions of her recent popularity and a general description of her social media activity creates an advertisement, not an encyclopedia article - there appears to be no support for WP:CREATIVE or WP:ENTERTAINER notability that we would typically expect to help balance articles. Per WP:BIO, "Notable" in the sense of being famous or popular—although not irrelevant—is secondary and WP:BASIC states, Articles may still not be created for such people if they fall under exclusionary criteria, [...] such as those listed in Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. At this time, this article seems squarely within WP:NOT, and there also does not appear to be sufficient depth, independence, and sustained coverage in reliable sources to support WP:BASIC notability for a standalone article.

  • Keep per GNG (disclaimer: creator). Yes, the article needs to be expanded and 2 of the 5 sources (at time of nomination) were about a racial incident. On the article's talk page, I've shared numerous sources about the incident (BBC News, The Guardian, The Independent, Essence, etc). Additionally, there have been other incidents and the hotel has been credited for helping develop the city's eastside. I've added many more sources to the article, including travel guides (Fodor's, Moon Publications) and other newspapers and magazines with reviews of the property. I've not even started with the Oregonian archives, which will surely yield many more returns. This entry should be expanded, not deleted. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:30, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I found, and added, a source indicating the hotel was the second-largest in the entire state in the 1980s, which makes it much more notable than the article's previous text on that point, that it was only "one of the five largest in Portland". I have also added several more newspaper articles as sources, most of which are specifically about this hotel. – SJ Morg (talk) 11:45, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This article has sources and is relatively well-written. However, it feels like the editors involved in this article have some relationship with the hotel. In addition, the majority of the sources that provide significant coverage are local which does not meet the standard for notability. Business Wire republishes press releases and, therefore, is not an independent source. The Ebony link is not significant coverage. So, the entire case to keep relies on whether or not an entry in a travel guidebook qualifies a hotel for notability. I think not as this is more of a directory listing than an actual article--and Wikipedia does not exist to duplicate content from travel guidebooks or other such directories. Yes, these books are qualified secondary sources but do not make something notable on their own. I suggest merging some of this content into DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel as this article is currently longer than the article about the entire chain. Rublamb (talk) 20:52, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The news event mentioned on the talk page is about this particular location, not the chain, and certainly meets requirements for widespread, major, independent coverage. Perhaps not the sort of coverage they want, but hey... Maury Markowitz (talk) 21:46, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The 2019 racial profiling incident is the last paragraph of the History section. Were you intending to !vote? — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 22:18, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Notability claimed as the (former) largest hotel in the state. Refs for that are independent although not online (newspaper.com's search is utterly useless). They are borderline local, but that alone seems to meet the bar for me. It's the several worldwide-noteworthy events that occurred that push it over. Maury Markowitz (talk) 23:42, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment: Sources do no have to be online; that is not a problem. The issue is that the article's significant coverage is local. Refering to WP:BRANCH, "As a general rule, the individual chapters of national and international organizations are usually not considered notable enough to warrant a separate article – unless they are substantially discussed by reliable independent sources that extend beyond the chapter's local area." Since we don't have substantial coverage outside of the hotel's area, it does not meet the standard for notability. Rublamb (talk) 04:20, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Rublamb, I encourage you to read The Oregonian article, which explains the paper's circulation exceeds the "local area", and meets the criteria for regional or statewide circulation. — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 09:35, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Rublamb The paper is the largest in the state, and the second in Cascadia as a whole. Saying this is too local for NOTE is like saying we shouldn't use the Toronto Star as a source on anything that happened in Toronto. The copious numbers of mentions as far away as the UK meets the criterion for "reliable independent sources that extend beyond the chapter's local area". I reiterate my keep.

Review of General Sources
Source Significant? Independent? Reliable? Secondary? Reach Pass/Fail Notes
"38 Portland hotels that tell the Rose City's history". The Oregonian. Yes Yes Yes Yes Regional P More of this history should be added to the article if it is kept.
"Newest $40 million Red Lion largest hotel in Oregon". The Oregonian. Might be significant but is potentially trivial coverage yes yes yes Regional P/F Per WP:CORPDEPTH: standard notices, brief announcements, and routine coverage of expansions, acquisitions, mergers, sales, or closure of the business is considered trivial

Comment: Reviewing existing souces is the typical starting point. The 30 potential sources are about the racist incident, the resulting court case, or the hotel chain's reponse to the incident. As indicated above, there already are enough sources to determine the notibility of this incident. However, the article in question is about the hotel rather than the racist incident, which is only featured in a couple of sentences. Rublamb (talk) 01:02, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - Keep in mind a school district is a local government just like a city or a town, and Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes#School_districts states:
    ""Populated, legally-recognized places" include school districts, which conveys near-presumptive notability to school districts per Wikipedia:Notability (geography)." (my emphasis added)

As a matter of fact, in at least one state (Indiana) they are commonly referred to as "school-city". They are not educational institutions, but rather quasigovernmental administrative districts with taxing authority and elected officials; the same reasons other governmental entities recieve a near presumption of notability under the geography SNGs. SNGs exist because certain things always have secondary coverage. Bond issues and elections are always covered by the press. 69.92.163.38 (talk) 15:10, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I'm not having any luck with the German firewalls either - though it appears that her autograph is available. What I did find though are brief mentions (prose) in Montreal and Edmonton newspapers when she played there around the time of the U20 World Cup (as they call it now) - including her captaining the team in at least one pre-tournament friendly. These aren't GNG worthy in themselves - but really, easy to find archived references for her brief appearance in Canada when she was 17 - but we can't search German sources because of a lack of online German material from that era, and firewalls. I've added these Canadian references, and fixed some of the ones already in the article. Nfitz (talk) 08:05, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP1E, WP:NOTNEWS. Fails WP:SUSTAINED/WP:PERSISTENCE. The only reliable coverage dates to a two month period in Feburary-March 2014. Fire Law Blog, as its names suggests, is the personal blog of Curt Varone. Indy100 as The_Independent#Indy100, notes, selects stories based on upvotes by readers, which doesn't indicate long-term significance. The event doesn't have seem to have been a precedent or catalyst for something else. This may include effects on the views and behaviors of society and legislation, as specified at Wikipedia:Notability_(events)#Lasting_effects. Hemiauchenia (talk) 19:26, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    I added notified Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Fire Service CT55555(talk) 19:04, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. As article creator. This was a notable event that provoked policy change, a legal case, national (CNN) and international (BBC) media attention. Coverage occurred in 2014 and 2020 so is WP:SUSTAINED. Indeed one later source is a blog, the blog of a fire service lawyer and author who writes about such issues. I would not call that a "personal blog" it's clearly a professional publication by an expert. It's not New York Times quality, but I think it's worth considering. Background Wikipedia as a clear policy on professional blogs 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 (from WP:BLOGS) so please note Varone's book Legal Considerations for Fire & Emergency Services published by Fire Engineering Books & Videos in 2020. On his expertise, see 1
WP:BLP1E is appropriate to mention here. Indeed it is what informed my decision to start the article. BLP1E exists to help us understand if, in the circumstances of an event reaching notability guidelines, we should create an article about the individual, the event or both (from WP:BIO1E). Following that guidance, I think a biographical article would not be well supported, which is why I created the event article. This article is doing what BLP1E calls for.
WP:NOTNEWS guides is to avoid "original reporting" (none is included) to consider enduring notability (above I note the coverage in 2014 and up to 2020) and to avoid Who's Who type things (I created an event, not a bio) and to avoid gossip (this is all well sourced, not celebrity gossip) so WP:NOTNEWS is fully met. WP:SUSTAINED is also relevant, and again it was the context of the coverage after the event, plus also the international nature of the press coverage but also the impact of the event that I think is what makes this event important (policy change and a legal case). I see no policy-based reason to discount a reliable source just because of its editorial policy of popularity. Relevant event notability criteria not mentioned above include WP:DEPTH (I think met) and WP:DIVERSE (I think robustly met).
Just to quickly give some sources to justify my WP:GNG assertion: 1 2 3 4 There are all significant coverage in reliable sources.
In summary, this article meets all the criteria for what a wikipedia event article should look like. Something happened, it captured national and international attention, it led to major other events, there as significant coverage in reliable sources. The event was short lived, but it was impactful. Obviously, I think we should keep it. CT55555(talk) 19:53, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Update: The original justification to delete has been altered. It now says there was no lasting effects of the incident. The news article that follows talks about how in addition to an investigation that was ongoing at the time of the news, the Fire and the Police service will change their protocols and training in light of the incident:
https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/chula-vista-firefighter-handcuff-chp-incident-leads-to-protocol-review/59017/
That's not as strong as an example as in the "Lasting Effects" but it seems like two material lasting effects. CT55555(talk) 00:51, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete A blog, even if by an expert, isn't good enough to pass WP:SUSTAINED. I think having an article specifically about an otherwise low profile living person getting arrested also presents WP:BLP issues (which per WP:DEL-REASON is a reason to delete an article). People are going to google this guy's name and see that he has an entire wikipedia article about him getting arrested. I think that's an issue. --Tristario (talk) 00:36, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Here is a video of him doing a press event about the issue: https://www.nbcsandiego.com/on-air/as-seen-on/firefightersotweb_san-diego/2079512/ CT55555(talk) 00:42, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    In 2014, in the aftermath of the incident. He's still low profile in the present as far as I can see. Tristario (talk) 00:57, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    He was doing press events. And so was his lawyer. If your concern is that this article might reflect badly on him, that seems unlikely considering the actual content, as I think any reasonable reading of the article only paints him in a good light. Also actual news of the event will be at the top of any searches about him what ever happens. The global news on this event will follow him what ever happens. I think the wikipedia article gives nuance and context. If your concern is his reputation (a valid concern to have) then I suggest that keeping this up serves his interests best, as Wikipedia will probably out rank the tabloid coverage, which isn't cited, but is also happening. CT55555(talk) 01:05, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    If I google "Jacob Gregoire" the only thing I see specifically about him getting arrested on the first page is this wikipedia article. And the difference between wikipedia articles and news articles is that news articles tend to go down in the results and disappear over time. But Wiki articles can stay at the top forever.

Comment: After I typed a lengthy rebuttal of the reasons to delete, the justification has been changed. Requesting editors don't add to things once people have replied to them, it's an unfair way to conduct a deletion discussion. CT55555(talk) 00:44, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - this is not a notable WP:EVENT - there appears to be limited WP:SENSATIONAL coverage of 'police arrest fire fighter', without substantial coverage of the later court case - the outcome is not even clear. There does not appear to be a noted and sourced permanent effect of historical significance or a demonstrable long-term impact on a significant region of the world or a significant widespread societal group. WP:BLPCRIME suggests we should also seriously consider not having an article about someone who is not a public figure and only accused of a crime. BLP policy applies to event articles, and the possibility of harm to living subjects must always be considered when exercising editorial judgment. Beccaynr (talk) 07:22, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Acknowledge the incident was widely reported at the time but the later sources presented do not satisfy sustained or indepth coverage. The Fire Law blog adds nothing new, merely repeats what happened. The court case reference is WP:PRIMARY and as such doesn't support notability. The Indy100 merely reports Twitter comments linking the incident to Black Lives Matter with no commentary/opinion by the writer as to whether the link is justified. Need additional sourcing to support the "policy change"; the source highlighted suggesting better communication needed hardly amounts to a change in policy.

  • Delete I believe this article was created by a UPE farm account. There exists a draft, Draft:Sonatafy Technology, that was created by a user (User:Pegsthais) who is now blocked as a sockpuppet of a UPE farm. The London Daily Post, Los Angeles Tribune, and NY Weekly sources might suggest notability, however I'm not sure how reliable they're considered—I'm guessing not very, since none have Wikipedia articles. In addition to the London Daily Post URL as the user above suggested, I also noticed the NY Weekly URL is misspelled, potentially to also avoid blacklisting or detection otherwise? Nonetheless, looking over these articles, they read like paid articles rather than genuine journalism. Uhai (talk) 15:52, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I see this as a similar case to Quan Chi, where Anna Williams should and likely does have the coverage. It's also worth noting she kind of co-starred with Nina in the game Death by Degrees, where she had her own mode. However, I have not found anything besides what GlatorNator posted above.

    If a popular Tekken character like Anna doesn't have much, then I guess the same goes to King (Tekken). GlatorNator () 04:36, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @GlatorNator: From the looks of it, no. Can't really find any SIGCOV to speak of for King either. I'd wager almost all Tekken characters with standalone articles are deep in "FANDOM article" territory, besides maybe obvious main characters like Jin Kazama who seem to possibly have scholarly coverage about them. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 05:55, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep: Based on two of the sources found in here. The one provided by GlatorNator and the first one provided by Merko are good starting points. MoonJet (talk) 09:28, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The one where Merko provided were just passing mention, but anyway it seems like im on my way for this afd to be neutral. GlatorNator () 10:59, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The whole article was about her though, so it's not a "passing mention." However, I do agree that Anna could have a bit more (plus the benefit of the doubt she has more sourcing out there), hence I only went with a "weak keep." It seems that we're all in agreement here that this is a borderline case. MoonJet (talk) 03:31, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    I don't know how you are so sure they are user-generated; both Mania and Anime News Network are both listed at WP:ANIME/RS and are well-known in the anime field for their editorial oversight, particularly in Anime News Network's case. Link20XX (talk) 00:57, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Regarding your comment above, WP:GNG does not mandate that sources not specialize in a specific field, so I don't understand why they are all on anime-focused websites/books/etc matters. While there is something like that in WP:AUD, that is part of WP:NCORP, which doesn't apply to this article since it is not about a corporation. Regarding Anime News Network, while it is true that anime/manga articles frequently cite it, it is just because it happens to be really the only major English anime publication, unfortunately.

I think you guys have mandate to fact checking things up with references as this article was also once reviewed by admins unless wikipedia has new rules that we dont know about. Being deleted twice does not makes us not to evaluate the subject to see if there is notability on other sources. This is my view. And when an admin says " we've seen on beginners in the African music scene. Managers send promo blurbs to promotional sites that merely reprint them" to me it sound like you have specifics site that your looking instead of fact checking professionally. This is my view. Regards Delvant (talk) 15:52, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I made the "beginners in the African music scene" comment but I am not an admin. Meanwhile, BBC is potentially reliable but the articles have to be about the person in question. The two BBC articles listed here are about a different singer named Harmonize, and our subject here (Mr Puaz) is just quoted briefly as an associate of Harmonize. If there was a BBC article that is really about Mr Puaz then that would be useful here. Meanwhile, the other listed sources featuring Mr Puaz himself are still unreliable blogs and promo reprints. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:03, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
replyYes, Mr Puaz is a notable person in Tanzania's entertainment industry, known for his work botha as a musician and talent manager. He has won several awards over the years, including the "Most Supportive Man Of The Year" at the Starqt Awards in South Africa and the "Best African Talent/Artist Manager" at the Africa Entertainment Awards USA. He has also worked with some of the biggest names in East African music, including Diamond Platnumz, Harmonize, and Nedy Music. Read this article on BBC again as it doesnt talk about someone else but Mr Puaz on how he ended his music relationship with his artist who he used to manage.This ( https://www.bbc.com/swahili/habari-46748076 ) I am a swahili native speaker as well and i understand what its written there even when you translate it to english it still say "Top Tanzania manager" plus the awards he won and being nominated like the one on AEAUSA ( AFRICA ENTERTAINMENT AWARDS USA) this is also a notable award.

    Accidents:
    • The first accident is to an incident where 2 people died. Because they were Americans there was a brief news article. Nothing SIGCOV about the subject of the article, the Airline.
    • The second accident is to a plane hitting an animal. Unless you're the buffalo, it doesn't show notability.
    • The third accident is not documented in any way. The database record used as a source states, "Little or no information is available".
    None of the above meets GNG or CORP guidelines. The sources for the article are all database records and one article that mentions the subject, none of which is SIGCOV. One is literally a reference that says there is no information.  // Timothy :: talk  13:36, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - the table is stated to have been calculated (by the editor), i.e. it is pure WP:OR, which is forbidden.

Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:29, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am finding the list of centres of US states very useful. I am going to visit them all and I will start by creating a an optimal tour based on the centres, to get a rough idea of the order in which I will visit them, for rough planning purposes. Then I will refine my trip by finding individual points of interest in each state and re-run the optimal tour algorithm. The list is a very useful resource - please don't delete it!

  • Delete the UK counties listing as original research and an unlikely term of reference. Tried quick Google searches for 3 random counties and nothing came up. However I'm moving towards keep for the US states version as it's more likely credible sources exist. For example, there's this for Texas [24] and this for Georgia [25] to take two at random. There are sources for the grouping to support WP:NLIST here [26] and here [27] even if the latter contends there are no official centers. The topic looks notable. It requires narrative on the formal recognition of the centers (or lack of), but that's a content issue. Rupples (talk) 05:23, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I don't think it was a good idea to bundle the two nominations. They're not inextricably linked.

No evidence of notability under WP:GNG. Zero independent third-party RS biographical coverage that I could find; total third-party cites are two questionable collections of gossip.

  • Floundering between weak keep and weak delete: I was the one who removed the PROD on the article because I feel WP:NACTOR wasn't being considered by the nominator. Donzis has main cast roles in three different TV/streaming series (Punky Brewster (2021), No Good Nick, and Liv and Maddie: Cali Style (fourth season of that series)). The problem I'm having is interpreting the spirit of NACTOR #1 because I've been under the impression that main cast = significant role, which I'm now having doubts about that being true. If I understand the notability test correctly, either the more general test, aka WP:GNG or WP:BASIC, must be met ... or the more specific test, NACTOR for this subject, must be met. Both can be met, and still not guarantee the inclusion of the subject in article mainspace. Because of the NACTOR issue, I felt that PROD wasn't the right move, and that more feedback is needed from other editors. Having said that, I do agree with the nominator about the state of the sources in the article, with none demonstrating notability, and even with NACTOR (which should also be backed by independent, third-party sources, not just the fact that the series she's appeared in list her prominently in the credits), it might be best to delete. I just am on the fence right now. MPFitz1968 (talk) 18:38, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no good sourcing within the article. Asa Kabir (talk)
  • I'm at delete based on article's current sourcing... The only "in depth"-type coverage of the subject at the article is Tiger Beat(! Tiger Beat! the teen gossip mag!!), so that's just incredibly weak. Other sources at the article would only be "passing mentions" of the subject, not in-depth coverage. IOW, the subject, while possibly passing WP:NACTOR in a "technical" sense, does not appear to pass the far more important WP:BASIC criteria... Now, if subject doesn't retire now that she is no longer a "child actress", that may change in the future. But, right now, the subject does not appear to pass WP:BASIC. --IJBall (contribstalk) 19:00, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

None? [28]https://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/tormenta-fc-adds-jackson-khoury-to-2023-usl-league-one-roster/n-5920481] - Whole article dedicated to the signing of the player. 3 mentions, and an entire paragraph dedicated to his performance [29]https://www.wjcl.com/article/tormenta-fc-defeats-triumph-fc-in-inaugural-peach-states-derby/43546224] He's mentioned directly in all the sources that have provided match reports on significant events that he's been involved in.

The first is routine transfer news and the second is a match report. This isn't sufficient. Simione001 (talk) 04:01, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To add further, how does this not meet GNG after sources make several mentions of the player, yet James Bayliss (just one of many stubb articles), which only has a singular source (no other than the clubs own match report, where he gets a brief 5 word mention) does? I notice in the editing history that you created the article, but that wasn't deemed "not notable" by yourself? I'm not suggesting this player is Cristiano Ronaldo, but he's certainly mentioned enough to warrant notability for his recent history in a professional national competition.

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

Does not meet WP:GNG.

Case has not even gone to trial yet and if no new precedent is set in the outcome of this case, then the court case certainly will not be notable in the slightest. The existence of this court action is best covered on the individual Wikipedia pages of those involved (which it already is).

Information on the page is also outdated. The interlocutory application has already been determined and if the article was updated to reflect the outcome of that application, the article would only be a few sentences long.

This page should be deleted until the trial is completed and if the outcome of the trial has significance, (for eg. if it sets new precedents on what is reasonable hours of work, or has an impact on the allocation of political staffers) then it should be recreated.

At the moment this article includes:

Outdated information Accusations that have already been dealt with A biased summary of the case (contains no negative claims against Rugg, but the author of the article was happy to include the claim that Ryan defrauded the Commonwealth, despite that claim (from her political opponents) being disproven.)

Just because a court case has received a lot of media coverage, does not mean it warrants it's own article. Simba1409 (talk) 02:16, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    –in most cases it does. ––– GMH MELBOURNE TALK 02:27, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment there is a difference between something that receives a lot of media coverage over a short period of time, and something with ongoing coverage in the media. It seems this case made a big impact in March 2023, then almost nothing in April. Although some of the bias arguments are a bit confusing, Simba1409 makes a good point about impact - it could end up settling, or being decided on un-groundbreaking terms. Speedy keep doesn't seem to apply at all. I'm almost at delete or even draftify but will see if other editors have input first. Oblivy (talk) 03:17, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: For the reasons you provided I struck out speedy keep.
    Media coverage started in January and ended in March. From what I gather, the reason for the lack of coverage in April is because there hasn't been any new development as the case is sub judice. As it is now, I believe the article meets wiki guidelines, but it is almost guaranteed to receive further large coverage in future as it will go to trial in June/July (which will receive large media attention), is not currently undergoing mediation, and has a big potential to set a legal precedent (which will mean papers, citations, etc.) ––– GMH MELBOURNE TALK 03:55, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree this could escalate, but it seems to be too soon for an article. That's why I mentioned draftify, basically wait-and-see without dumping the article. Oblivy (talk) 04:03, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I also agree that it could escalate. If the case is ruled in Rugg's favour, this will certainly set a new precedent in terms of work hours (and perhaps political staffer allocation) and warrant a quite extensive article. Until there is a judgement though, this article should not exist. I wouldn't oppose draftify but it should be noted, in its current form, the article is not up to date and it would certainly be very out of date at the end of the trial. Simba1409 (talk) 04:11, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    And tonight Rugg has drastically changed her overall claim, directly naming the Prime Minister. In the interest of Wikipedia presenting factual information to the public, it is best that an article on this case wait until there is a judgement. Otherwise, it will have to be rewritten and changed 100s of times. At this point, with the Prime Minister being named a settlement also seems more than likely as the Govt was previously the only barrier to doing so and if that were to occur, this case would likely have zero notability.

  • Draftify per my comment above this is a moving target right now, unclear if it will prove to be notable. Per GMH Melbourne the trial is likely to start (if it doesn't settle) in a matter of months, which will likely generate the kind of sustained coverage which supports WP:GNGOblivy (talk) 10:38, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Plenty of coverage - and the case raises questions about reasonable workload in parliament, with potential for longevity of interest. Newystats (talk) 01:30, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This court case is definitely notable, so I have rewritten and expanded the article's content with a variety of sources. I am also willing to commit to updating the article during the court case. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 10:15, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment: Even with your additions, the article is still out of date. Outside of potential precedents that this case may or may not set and noting that media coverage doesn't on its own make it notable, why do you believe this article meets notability criteria JML1148? I'd like to understand your argument. Thanks. Simba1409 (talk) 11:37, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      Why are you excluding the possible precedents? Newystats (talk) 23:09, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      I'm not Newystats. My arguments above against this article are because it isn't notable as no precedents have been set. You can't argue notability in terms of precedents before they actually occur. The case can very easily settle (particularly now that the PM is named in Rugg's altered claim) or have a ruling that changes nothing. Simba1409 (talk) 23:15, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      Even if we do exclude precedents, from the source assessment table below, the article is definitely notable under WP:GNG. I would encourage you to answer the questions that Oblivy has asked you on your talk page. From your edit war at Monique Ryan, to your actions on your talk page, to your comments here, it would be in your best interest to answer the questions honestly. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 07:02, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      While I'm here, I want to make it clear that I am also okay with a Draftify result, until the article is over. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 07:03, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      I appreciate your comments, User:JML1148 and basically agree with everything that's being said here - nobody can seriously disagree this has the requisite independent coverage, but for other reasons it could be a close call. I'd ask everyone to consider two things:
      • what will this article look like if the case settles (or is otherwise discontinued before trial) on less-than precedent-setting terms?
      • would it be acceptable to have this information maintained on Monique Ryan and then added back into the article later?
      Oblivy (talk) 07:37, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      In my opinion, the article's contents could be condensed and merged into Monique Ryan and Sally Rugg, with more emphasis on each of their perspectives in their respective articles in the case that the case is settled. I'm not exactly decided on the latter question, so I'll leave that to other editors. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 07:47, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I was never engaged in an edit war JML1148. I've also stated that I am happy for this article to exist should the case set precedents, which should clear up any conflict of interest concerns that GMH MELBOURNE's projection may have caused. I missed the question on my talk page but I have now responded, thankyou.
    Media coverage doesn't in all cases = notability, so I'd appreciate JML1148 if you could explain in your view how this legal case is notable outside of media coverage and precedents that are yet to be and may not be set?
    My view as stated - if the case is settled or judgement is given that doesn't set a precedent or impact staffer allocations, then the case doesn't have any significance and therefore shouldn't exist. Simba1409 (talk) 12:46, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for your direct response on your talk page regarding conflict of interest. These [32][33][34] is clearly edit war conduct, however I appreciate the third opinion provided. Regarding the case being settled, I think I have made my opinions clear in comments above. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 08:33, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    An edit war requires three reverts by an editor within 24 hours. I did not engage in an edit war, I directed the discussion to the talk page as was the appropriate thing to do. The person providing the third opinion then agreed with my assessment of the content. Simba1409 (talk) 09:02, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The 3-revert rule creates a presumption of edit warring, but overall conduct can be considered along with reverts. As things are not so heated now, I suggest we try to avoid focusing on editor behavior and instead focus on what would be a reasonable consensus exit plan for this AfD. Oblivy (talk) 09:23, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree with this statement. I will lay out my opinions as to what should happen regarding the article, and I request @GMH Melbourne:, @Oblivy:, and @Simba1409: to do the same.
    • For the time being, the article should be kept in mainspace for the duration of the proceedings, as it quite notable and aligns with WP:GNG.
    • If the case is settled, the article should be merged into Monique Ryan and Sally Rugg with emphasis on their actions in their respective article.
    • If the case goes to trial and a judgment is made, then the article should be retained. Provided I can get sources for it, I may pursue a WP:GA nomination.
    JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 06:53, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    That sounds absolutely reasonable, JML1148. I would only hope editors will avoid writing based on pleadings and single-sided coverage, per WP:Primary and WP:BALANCE. That doesn't mean everything has to be both-sides'ed, but often parties generate coverage by saying controversial things. Oblivy (talk) 07:23, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep the article as a draft until the case concludes.
    Most of us seem to be in agreement that if there is a settlement, this article should be deleted/merged. This is surely an argument that the case currently isn't notable without a judgement that sets a precedent. Otherwise, the argument would be to retain the article no matter what.
    • If the case is settled, update the Rugg & Ryan pages to reflect this and delete the article
    • Ditto above if there is a judgement that rules with Ryan & the Commonwealth with no impact on staffing numbers
    • If the judgement rules in favour of Rugg (or has an impact on staffing numbers if Ryan wins) then the case justifies its own article
    • We should also agree (if the article is to exist) not to include political commentary from those with vested interests made for purely political purposes (such as The Coalition alleging that Ryan may have defrauded the Commonwealth) as these claims are made without basis. Simba1409 (talk) 12:00, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: A lot is being said in relation to the notability of this topic. It is pretty clear to me that the article meets the WP:GNG criteria (see below). In relation to the WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE policy, the topic has received persistent coverage over 3 months (and is guaranteed future coverage), its received "coverage beyond a relatively short news cycle", and has received "further analysis or discussion" following the initial reporting. P.S. Also note the notability is not temporary policy.

  • Soft Keep While I don't disagree that the overall significance and accomplishments of this former player are quite muted, he does meet the standard guidelines set out for a notable tennis sportsperson by having competed in that one ATP-level match back in 2004. If this page were to be deleted, it sets a precedent that does not align with the guidelines, thus the guidelines should be ammended as well. mcburk 22:39, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mcburk, NSPORT was significantly revised after a 2022 RfC that showed consensus for just the kind of amendment you suggest. There was a community consensus that simply meeting the NSPORT criteria is explicitly insufficient to presume notability. Compliance with the GNG is specifically required. I recommend reading the FAQ at the top of NSPORT to get a better understanding of what the guideline actually says. ♠PMC(talk) 10:29, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment There should be no amends to NTENNIS, because it's still a great notability indicator. But just like any other, it's bound for situations like this one. A majority of players that played at least 1 ATP/WTA match are more likely than not to continue to play more of those and eventually get all the significant secondary coverage they need. No such thing here. Wikipedia:Notability (sports)/FAQ (NTENNIS is a part of the global sports guideline) says "The topic-specific notability guidelines described on this page do not replace the general notability guideline. They are intended only to stop an article from being quickly deleted when there is very strong reason to believe that significant, independent, non-routine, non-promotional secondary coverage from multiple reliable sources is available, given sufficient time to locate it. Wikipedia's standard for including an article about a given person is not based on whether or not they have attained certain achievements, but on whether or not the person has received appropriate coverage in reliable sources, in accordance with the general notability guideline.
