The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus between keeping and merging. However, that's an editorial discussion and does not require continuation of this AfD as there is no broad desire for deletion as even the nom withdrew. Star Mississippi 02:06, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the available sources at google shows him appearing at Mortal Kombat X back as old and a little bit commentary, but that's it. This possibly fails third party sources. The sources again on reception sec are crufts. GlatorNator (talk) 23:44, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge with List of Mortal Kombat characters. Reception is mostly listicles; article does not demonstrate it passes WP:GNG. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 07:48, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I really can't get behind this one. First Reptile (which rightfully resulted in keep), now this. I mean, I can see where you're coming from with the likes of Baraka, but I always thought this one would be safe. Well, for Kung Lao, we have, in addition to the sources the nom mentioned, this, this, and best of all, this. There's probably more out there. I'll continue to look. Either way, I think it's safe to say that Kung Lao, IMO, passes the tests in what we're looking for in notability. MoonJet (talk) 11:42, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm glad you found one from Den of Geek, but I doubt there are more, thus failing independent sources. CBR and comic books are the weakest sources out there and shall not be used for notability, unlike The Den of Geek. GlatorNator (talk) 12:10, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I wouldn't doubt it. Kung Lao is a very popular character. He even co-starred in a game with Liu Kang. ComicBook.com has been discussed here, with consensus leaning towards reliability, and nothing saying it can't be used to establish notability. As for CBR, this discussion indicates it can be used on at least a situational basis. MoonJet (talk) 21:23, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    CBR is a widely known content farm and the ComicBook.com source is not significant coverage. Throwing random sources at the wall is only going to weaken your case by making it more obvious the character has nothing of note. Den of Geek is solid, but take care not to mix it in with other poor sources. And if Den of Geek's article is all there is, it shouldn't have an article. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 04:15, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Whatever the case, how about a couple magazine scans? MoonJet (talk) 05:06, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The EGM interview is a promotional puff piece. The second, absolutely not in terms of notability. They’re also far outdated. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 17:01, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Define "promotional puff piece." It goes into the making of the character and the actor who played him, which is helpful for any character article. Them being "outdate" sounds like a WP:NOTTEMPORARY argument. MoonJet (talk) 02:19, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The first scan is more about the actor than the character. The 2nd seems usable for general info, but offers no reception. WP:NOTGAMEGUIDE. So I am definitely no more convinced than I was when I first voted merge. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 13:25, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge with List of Mortal Kombat characters. Fails N, none of the sources above or in article meet IS RS with SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. BEFORE showed nothing with SIGCOV, fancruft. Just because something exists and is mentioned on the internet doesn't make it N. The keep comments above are to obvious promo or don't bother mention sources or guidelines, so they don't merit consideration.  // Timothy :: talk  12:37, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep I'm with Sergecross for the time being. There are indeed some decent sources (I did remove one lousy one in Cheat Code Central from reception), but the article itself is in dire need of copyediting. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 16:54, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Withdraw but leave a clean up tag. I found an IGN about Kung Lao just now and I think it barely passes notability now, withdrawing. GlatorNator (talk) 22:00, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I object to withdrawing the AfD - I still have not found anything that marks notability. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 23:21, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Would you mind posting the IGN source for Kung Lao you are referring to? I haven't found any when looking for sources.
    Anyway, I'll be incorporating the sources provided here to the article soon. MoonJet (talk) 02:43, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    On the contrary, I agree with a stay of execution while viable sources are sought. Kung Lao may not be Liu Kang or Sub-Zero but he's not Drahmin either. Plus it's not as if this can't be nominated again if the effort is ultimately unsuccessful. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 03:58, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    If you wish to argue for draftification, feel free. But without any real evidence sources exist, it would be a large waste of time for everyone involved to go through another AfD. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 04:43, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

dubious notability. Can find virtually no coverage by reliable sources, seems to exist only to promote the subject FASTILY 23:26, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - This is clearly a promotional, CV-like article that requires serious pruning (which I will do after posting this comment). Regarding his notability, a quick BEFORE yielded three notable museum collections that is enough to pass WP:NARTIST (normally two notable museum collection are considered enough). These are: Portland Art Museum [1]; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston [2]; Yale University Art Gallery [3]. I've seen other museum collections online, but haven't yet checked if the institutions are notable enough to mention. Netherzone (talk) 23:48, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I've trimmed back most of the unsourced content, promotional content, and content that was solely sourced to his own website. I found a few reviews of his work online (but have not added them to the article at this time). I created a section for three notable museum collections plus citations. He meets WP:NARTIST and may also meet he also meets WP:GNG based on the reviews that exist online and the five that I just added to the article, four of which are WP:SIGCOV, the other a decent mention. Netherzone (talk) 00:21, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I couldn't find anything that satisfies any of the four criteria under WP:NARTIST, (There are 13,000 artists listed at the MFA for example, so being there is not notable) and main cite is WP:PRIMARY. MetricMaster (talk) 09:33, 23 March 2023 (UTC) This user has made 47 edits to Wikipedia. Their contribution history shows that 38 of these were to AFD discussions. The account exists for votestacking and has been blocked.[reply]
    @MetricMaster, I believe you are misunderstanding the WP:NARTIST SNG. He clearly meets criteria #4d of NARTIST: The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.. All three museums are notable per WP standards. The number of artists or artworks in a museum collection has no bearing whatsoever; if it did (by your logic) we would have to discount works held in the Met, the British Museum, Louvre, etc. That the citations for the collections are primary also has no bearing as they are used for verification purposes - searchable museum collections have been used for verification as long as I've been editing. Museum collections are not only curated, the objects in collections are heavily vetted by the institutional acquisitions board. He may also meets WP:GNG, based on the reviews I added to the article, however articles on artists do not have to meet both GNG & SNG. Netherzone (talk) 17:50, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Visual arts-related deletion discussions. Netherzone (talk) 19:40, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep and please withdraw, per Netherzone's good work on the page, well sourced, and well represented in museums and publications. As it is now the page seems to have been saved, and removing it from AfD saves closer's time. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 08:31, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Unless the delete !vote is struck out the AfD nominator doesn't have the option to withdraw. WP:WDAFD Rupples (talk) 17:11, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    On the other hand it looks like the nominator can still put a note agreeing to withdraw but can't close the AfD. Rupples (talk) 17:15, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I don't see this as a shoo-in but there seems sufficient here to fulfill WP:NARTIST and likely Wimberley satisfies WP:GNG. Here's an art review in The Sacramento Bee.[4] Rupples (talk) 19:13, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ambassadors are not inherently notable. No significant coverage to meet WP:BIO. LibStar (talk) 23:19, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Leaning keep: A search through newspapers.com revealed several sources providing significant coverage, particularly regarding his post as ambassador to Cuba. [5], [6] (same as 1 but with some added paragraphs), [7] (obit), as well as non-sigcov providing but supplementary sources like [8] (multiple mentions in this book) and [9], as well as other supplementary sources on GBooks I haven't linked. I think this is enough to push this over the threshold of significance compared to the usual quality of ambassador-cruft that is brought to AfD. Curbon7 (talk) 23:49, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bio which appears to fail WP:GNG. Article has existed since 2007, was PRODded a few months after creation but this was immediately contested by the author. There has been little improvement since then.

I've not spent enough time to say if it amounts to significant coverage, but plenty about him in Google books where he seems frequently identified as an expert in his field and someone that authors of outdoor books appear to have written about several times.

Due to a complete lack of coverage outside of databases, this clearly fails WP:SPORTBASIC#5 and WP:GNG, despite playing 46 minutes of a single international game 20 years ago then disappearing without further coverage, it would seem.

I deprodded this in 2012, but in hindsight I don't think the notability guideline for organisations, products and services is met. Of the three sources cited, only the CNBC article seems likely to satisfy WP:ORGIND, and I haven't been able to find any better sources. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 11:51, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

      The article notes: "SnöBar Frozen Cocktails are alcoholic popsicles and ice cream. Don't kid yourself on the punch these babies pack because they are potent and a popsicle has the same amount of alcohol a real cocktail. They are powerful, but more important, really delicious. The Cosmo is perfection, Mojito is excellent, and Margarita is worthy of every single drop. How lucky am I that the three popsicle flavors they make are my favorite drinks? Almost as lucky as SnöBar because I've been to my Gelson's three times to buy more they are so good. Based in Los Angeles, SnöBar is the creation of Eddie and Shannon Masjedi. Not only are there popsicles, but also ice cream! The ice cream flavors are Grasshopper, Pink Squirrel, Brandy Alexander Chocolate Chip, and Brandy Alexander."

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow SnoBar Cocktails to pass Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Primary criteria, which requires "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject"

    Cunard (talk) 07:31, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:ORGIND requires us to discount sources in which content produced by the subject is copied, regurgitated, and published in whole or in part by independent parties, and to instead prioritise sources displaying original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking. None of these sources seems to clear that bar; they all read to me like paraphrases of press releases. Some are also probably too brief to be considered significant coverage (#5, #6 and #8 have less than 200 words on the subject) and at least one's very unlikely to be a reliable source (#2 again, which takes its content from GuySpeed, which advertises its areas of journalistic focus as including "girls," "sex," "hot gifs" and "cleavage"). – Arms & Hearts (talk) 12:50, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I kind of have to agree these seem to have been generated from press releases, and even then unless there's much more coverage than you're quoting, none seem to rise to significant coverage w/re NCORP. Which 3 do you think we should be looking at to assess notability? Valereee (talk) 18:05, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The nominator said in the nomination statement "Of the three sources cited, only the CNBC article seems likely to satisfy WP:ORGIND". Angel 2015 is an independent review of SnoBar Cocktails. From Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Product reviews: "Significant reviews are where the author has personally experienced or tested the product and describes their experiences in some depth, provides broader context, and draws comparisons with other products." The reviewer "personally experienced the product" as she writes, "SnöBar Frozen Cocktails are alcoholic popsicles and ice cream. Don't kid yourself on the punch these babies pack because they are potent and a popsicle has the same amount of alcohol a real cocktail. They are powerful, but more important, really delicious. The Cosmo is perfection, Mojito is excellent, and Margarita is worthy of every single drop."

  • Weak Keep While I hear (and share) concerns that reliance on press releases may have tainted the sources, User:Cunard’s thorough source analysis sufficiently demonstrates to me that Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Product reviews is satisfied by these sources, which while somewhat repetitive, several do appear to be independent reviews by the authors. Jo7hs2 (talk) 21:44, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I don't think the sources in the article and those put up here by Cunard are sufficient to satisfy the notability requirements. None are indepth, detailed and comprehensive reviews as required by WP:PRODUCTREV. To qualify, I'd expect to see comment on texture, aroma (if any), flavour, visual, bitterness, sweetness, product storage, calories and packaging etc.
Take no. 1. Ilana Angel. First 3 paragraphs all we learn is how much she loves cocktails and how she's affected by drinking them. Next 3 paragraphs. Names the owners, provides a product list and a commentary that doesn't amount to a proper review. The author has used mostly bland descriptive words throughout - "deliciousness", "really delicious", "perfection", "excellent", "worthy of every single drop", "so good", "perfect", "fun", "delicious" (again), "favorite discovery", "delicious (yet again), "fun" (again), "really great". The only area of the product she has really commented on is the alcohol effect, as "powerful" and "potent". It's not a review, but a promotional piece to attract readers to buy the product - as the author has admitted.
Only the Tom Rotunno, CNBC news piece passes muster as a satisfactory source, all the others are trivial and/or promotional. Insufficient significant coverage, so fails, WP:NCORP, WP:PRODUCTREV. Rupples (talk) 04:40, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: The review from Angel 2015 meets Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Product reviews. The author "personally experienced or tested the product and describes their experiences in some depth". The review notes: "In trying this product however, I cannot image anyone would not love it. ... SnöBar Frozen Cocktails are alcoholic popsicles and ice cream. Don't kid yourself on the punch these babies pack because they are potent and a popsicle has the same amount of alcohol a real cocktail. They are powerful, but more important, really delicious. The Cosmo is perfection, Mojito is excellent, and Margarita is worthy of every single drop. ... The ice cream is a delicous desert and the popcicles are a fun way to enjoy a drink." The author's statements clearly demonstrate she has "personally experienced the product" and convey her thoughts about the different products that make up the brand. Editors critique her writing as "commentary that doesn't amount to a proper review". The author's writing style is not on par with high quality food reviews from publications like The New York Times. But her commentary and background about the company are sufficiently detailed to meet Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Product reviews. She has no affiliation with the company. Her review is very positive. She writes, "I hope this company grows and does well because they have created something really great." This positive review does not detract from her being independent of the company. Cunard (talk) 06:26, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment.Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Product reviews ALSO states that the review should provide broader context, and draw comparisons with other products. "Reviews that narrowly focus on a particular product or function without broader context (e.g. review of a particular meal without description of the restaurant as a whole) do not count as significant sources.". Substitute the restaurant example with frozen cocktails and ice cream with alcohol. No comparisons made. No broader context. Therefore, does not count as a significant source. Rupples (talk) 16:51, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I understand the guideline to mean comparisons and comment on other companies competing products, is this not correct? Rupples (talk) 17:34, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The review does not compare SnöBar to other products, but that is just one example of how the review would be considered significant coverage. The review is significant coverage because it provides broader context by discussing how SnöBar is based in Los Angeles, was created by Eddie and Shannon Masjedi, notes that the product includes both popsicles and ice cream, notes the ice cream flavors, discusses that "each serving of all the products have a full cocktail", and notes that SnöBar is available in California, Arizona, Florida, the Carolinas, and Las Vegas. Cunard (talk) 06:36, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Impasse. There's a difference of opinion between us as to what constitutes significant, indepth coverage per the guideline. That's fine, guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Rupples (talk) 19:39, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article in its current state is a mess. A quick Google search reveals that the topic is notable, however it needs major improvements. I tried to draftify it 3 times but due to an unknown error I wasn't able to. I propose to either WP:TNT this article or draftify it.

  • Keep and restore to the version I linked above - The old version of the article, while certainly in need of improvement, contains enough reliable sources to pass GNG. There is this Guardian article which has four paragraphs on the group, and this Observer piece which is predominantly about them. There is also this paywalled piece in The Times which I can't access but looks like it gives significant coverage too. These two sources also discuss the group but I am unsure about their reliability. I've also found this in The Telegraph - again paywalled but potentially useful for someone with access. TNT seems premature - although the present state of the article might seem to warrant that, there's enough in the history for someone if they wanted to improve it. WJ94 (talk) 12:13, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. A subject lacking independent significance, let alone Wiki-notability. The articles invoked are not even about the subject specifically, e.g. : The Guardian piece is about all criminal gangs (title: "21st-century British criminal underworld"); the Evening Standard piece is about a specific Albanian serving time in prison, who is "thought to be member" of the group. Afloat is the aroma of bravado and promotion. And the fact that the text has been created and curated mostly by a couple of quite suspicious accounts, one a semi-kamikaze and the other currently globally blocked does not help. Wikipedia used to be, unfortunately, a lot more tolerant, or perhaps more casual, about such low-quality uploads but, thankfully, not any more. -The Gnome (talk) 08:31, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of Canadian Airlines International destinations[edit]

List of Canadian Airlines International destinations (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This one seems like a page that is unverified and unverifiable. There are no refs on the page (since 2007) and it is hard to imagine a ref that would show a list of airports a defunct airline flew to "during the 1980s and 1990s until its demise" as claimed in the lede. Which to me makes no sense anyway.

I can believe that there may be sources of destinations at certain points in time. I think there is going to be a level of WP:OR required to produce a list of destinations spanning 30 years, but even if it is acceptable there needs to be more than assertions to reference it. JMWt (talk) 07:36, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. If I understand this nomination correctly, the nominator is stating that the reason for deletion is that there are not, and can not ever be, any reliable sources for any of the locations listed on this page. This page shows Canadian Airlines International timetables from 1987 to 2000 that reliably list destinations for the airline. I'm sure there are more timetables out there, it's something people like to collect and share. The other portion of the deletion nomination are copyediting suggestions. So I'm not seeing any valid reasons to delete the article. RecycledPixels (talk) 16:39, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There are no references on the page and have not been since 2007. Producing a list of destinations collating information from timetables would synthesis of information. Knowing that paper timetables exist also does not help with the lack of verifiable information on the page if nobody uses them to reference it. JMWt (talk) 17:56, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Are you saying that an airline timetable is not a reliable source as to whether an airline flies to a particular destination? RecycledPixels (talk) 00:54, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'm saying that a paper timetable is only of use here if it is actually used to write the information on the page. Also as the timetables only show the routes at a given point of time, WP:SYNTH and WP:OR would be necessary to write a properly referenced page in its current form. JMWt (talk) 06:49, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hey JMWt, I see some abondoned routes so not only one point in time. gidonb (talk) 12:47, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The airline is no longer flying, so they are all abandoned routes. If there was, for example, a timetable showing routes in 1985, that does obviously not show routes in 1999. So there would need to be sourcing from a number of dates to produce this WP page. And, as far as we can tell, there is no indication that any timetables have been used anyway because there are no references on the page and thus the information is entirely unverified. JMWt (talk) 13:56, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Where do you get that? This article is a list of destinations that the airline flew during its history. It's not a history of destinations in 1985, 1988, or 1999, and there is no assertion that the airline flew continuously to any of the destinations on this list. The only such assertions are those like Hong Kong, which seems reasonable to say that the airline stopped flying to Kai Tak Airport after it was closed and operations were moved to Chek Lap Kok International Airport so the reader isn't confused and think that the airline was flying to both destinations at the same time. I'm still not seeing a reason to delete this. RecycledPixels (talk) 17:05, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's a bunch of unverified assertions that are not referenced. It literally states things as fact that have no inline references whatsoever. JMWt (talk) 17:08, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's a reason to improve the article, not delete it. Your original nomination statement said that the information contained in the article was unverified and unverifiable. I've suggested just one potential easily-obtained source of information in an attempt to demonstrate that the information is, in fact, verifiable. Its current state of poor sourcing, copyediting are reasons to improve the article, or, if needed, tag it for improvement, per suggestions at the Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup essay. RecycledPixels (talk) 17:45, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to stop now because it seems like we are talking past each other. If you have an easily-obtained source of information which encompasses all of the content of the page, I invite you to add it as a reference. JMWt (talk) 17:50, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing wrong with a primary source here. Per WP:PRIMARY: "A primary source may be used on Wikipedia only to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge." That's all the timetable is being used for. Nobody's trying to make any interpretations of the data, such as location X must have been the airline's most profitable route because it had the most daily flights, or something like that. Defunct airline means nothing. Pan Am is a defunct airline, yet we still have List of Pan Am destinations. "Unsourced" is a temporary condition. Reliable sources exist, as I pointed out above.

  • Redirect to Canadian Airlines International: redirects are WP:CHEAP and this would preserve the page history better than deletion. Once reliable sources are found, the article can be recreated. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 07:32, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – Listcruft, unsourced and trivial (defunct airline schedules are not an encyclopedic topic), WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE, WP:NOTAGUIDE.

Oppose deletion. We should be assessing this based on sourcing that can be found, not the article. I added one already and see more here: Pathak, B. (1993). Rural Violence in Bihar. India: Concept Publishing Company. p192 CT55555(talk) 05:53, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I'm not a big expert here, but even the new added source is about a "leader of the Bairwa community" (and the eponymic one), not about the ethnic group in discussion. It still could be a real thing, but out of proportion or something. Btw, I don't see much sense in draftifying, coz the article is quite short and already has issue templates.

Fromkin Distinguished Service Prize from the Linguistic Society in 2003 for founding Linguist list. There's just a couple of sentences, however.

  • Keep. I just added half a dozen references, some from newspapers and some from scholarly journals, to text already there. The article certainly needs work, but I think there is plenty of room to expand on Professor Aristar's career. LINGUIST List, E-MELD, and Multitree (projects that he co-founded) are all pretty influential within his field. Cnilep (talk) 05:14, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think what you are aiming for is #4 of WP:NACADEMIC: "The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions." If so, it doesn't come through in the sources. The quotes you added don't put this over the top to notability, IMO. Managing a list is not the same as making a significant discovery in ones' field. It isn't "academic work" per se. I looked up E-MELD in G-Scholar and it's mostly meeting reports with few published papers and very low citations. It does surprise me that there isn't more recognition of this person's work, but unless we find it there's not enough to support an article. Lamona (talk) 15:11, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I was questioning this, over the weekend. I went over the sources, that ones that I could access and it was definitely a mixed bag of what I would consider at the lower end of quality. I couldn'tt see anything that I could attach to as viable secondary source. It rotated around the question of "Is he notable for creating a bibliographic database". I don't see it, to be honest. Many of these types of database are created all the time. I don't it is possible to clarify it as something that is standalone notable and it all stems from that. scope_creepTalk 15:18, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. I have ignored the "hold fire" !votes, for the reason that that is turning things on their head: we wait until a subject is notable to write an article, we don't let an article on a non-notable subject linger around to have a look at it later.

Contested WP:BLAR. The article is essentially a WP:OR/WP:SYNTH that combines the March 2023 United States bank failures with the single Acquisition of Credit Suisse by UBS in order to create the novel conclusion that the 2023 global banking crisis emerged in March 2023. Examining the sources does not provide coverage of this event as being some top-level banking crisis that is affecting the entire globe, and this article should be blanked-and-redirected to March 2023 United States bank failures#Broader impact as an inappropriate WP:CFORK that endorses the particular point-of-view that there exists such a thing as a "2023 global banking crisis". While such a crisis may emerge, Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and we cannot make articles on events that have not yet occurred. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 16:56, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The nominator has merely asserted that, not made a compelling case. This article is not a "WP:CFORK that endorses the particular point-of-view", as asserted by nom. It is not a POVFORK as the other article is explicitly about several U.S. bank failures, and had Talk page discussion at the time that the Credit Suisse and the Swiss government angles on the crisis were explicitly out of scope for the U.S. banking failure article. Further, when the article was created (old version 20 March), there were multiple sources that called it a "banking crises" that included both U.S. and European banking systems, one source that called it a "global banking crisis," and another that referred to banking regulators attempting to shore up the "global banking system."
  • Delete : It does seem like a case of "too soon" and synthesis. The sources provided state things like "prevent a crisis" or "US, global crisis" so it's not clear that it's really a crisis at this point, nor is it necessarily global as the sources provided clearly state that Asia is mostly unaffected.

  • Hold fire for a month. Given high global inflation, supply chain bottlenecks, Ukrainian-Russo war, et al, it may just be waiting for the next domino to fall for the global financial system to fold akin to 2008, which has a reasonable possibility as advanced economies are still accelerating interest rates despite the strain on banks and businesses. 92.9.45.55 (talk) 20:40, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    There's no basis to peer into a crystal ball and hold this on the off chance that a domino might fall and actually cause this. Either sources exist that are describing an ongoing global financial crisis, or they do not. In the latter case, this topic is WP:OR/WP:SYNTH, and it would make no sense to keep the page in mainspace. I've yet to see any arguments for the former. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 22:25, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hold fire for a month. Same reasons as above. Johnson.Xia (talk) 22:03, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I thought I would add more information to be previous deletion support:
We now have a couple of articles which denote the more fearful scale of the looming financial crisis:
  • Bloomberg is saying that the Federal Reserve has to choose between a hard recession and an inflation crisis.
  • Financial Times is also saying that the Federal Reserve has to deal with a looming credit crunch (which for me seems to hark back to the tone used during the Great Recession)
This is primarily a US banking crisis currently for the following reasons:
  • There have only been notable bank runs and pre bank runs on American banks, except for Credit Suisse which was experiencing trouble stemming from its US headquartered investment banking unit (First Boston) well before the US banking crisis flared up. If you were to plot the incidents on a graph then the Credit Suisse debacle would be viewed as the exception and statistical anomaly, stemming from issues that had been discussed well before the current US banking crisis.
  • The spillover of the banking crisis also seems to be limited to the western world except for notable but not exceptional stock market changes. There have been numerous articles explaining the strength/stability of the banking systems in Asia especially in China, Japan and Singapore... If there were a notable spillover of the banking crisis, it would probably be limited to the western world, and only recession may somewhat overspill into Taiwan/Japan/Korea (as it did with the Great Recession).
  • It also seems to be a shortage of US dollars that are fueling the fear of the credit crunch. The central banks of Asia have been less aggressive with interest rate hikes and hence there is more liquidity available in various other currencies. India and numerous of other countries have also made significant efforts to diversify away from the USD in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine war, so there is also less likelihood of the Sri Lanka style crisis because US dollars are now less used in Asia.

  • Support I think it is better to have a single article covering the wider banking crisis because
  • The banking crisis seems to be affecting the Western World at its greatest extent, with market shares being messy but not particularly note-worthy. There have been a few articles stating that Asia is doing fine:
  • If you were to plot the banking crises on a graph, the UBS buyout would be the anomaly and outlier, and hence it would not result in the creation of a "global" banking crisis.
  • The initial controversy at Credit Suisse was at its First Boston subsidiary HQd in New York, which may have then spread to the rest of the bank, but it originated in the US. While there is a global link, it is still a substantially US problem. UBS is planning to mostly shutter the First Boston operations.

I am inclined to agree with you on the reference but it served a point. The situation is more nuanced than a yes or no - we only have the CS collapse which was due anyway, but the US article doesn't indicate much about the effect globally and the link with liquidity problems caused by the bond market.

But since the US article is the biggest I think it would be best to merge the content of the global article in the US one and then rename the US one to global.

  • Keep - Central banks say that the system is solid and that there is no contagion, but the facts say that every day a new bank emerges that is in difficulty or under stress.

  • Keep - This is Wikipedia, and we don't censor for political reasons. While central bankers and president's may say the system is sound and things have calmed, Wikipedia should simply explain encyclopedically whatever verifiable sources are reporting about it. And use the common names. Here are what sources in the article are saying:

  • Hold fire for at least a month. Some indisputable facts: There exists quite evidently a widespread banking crisis. It is, at least for the time being, claiming most of the notability about economic and financial crises. These are facts. On the basis of these facts, having text independently informing users about the banking crisis unarguably serves tyhe encyclopaedic purpose of the project. In a few weeks or maybe a couple of months, a merge could well be the preferred option. Both in terms of Wikipedia as well as the well-being of finance. -The Gnome (talk)

The last AfD resulted in a "no consensus", but the debate was marred by canvassing and non-policy-based "keep" !votes. The delete rationale was "Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." Nothing has changed since then and the delete rationale still stands. Hence: delete. Randykitty (talk) 15:21, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:JOURNALCRIT asks if any of the following are satisfied:
Criterion 1: The journal is considered by reliable sources to be influential in its subject area.
Criterion 2: The journal is frequently cited by other reliable sources.
Criterion 3: The journal is historically important in its subject area.
I do not see evidence for #3.
Regarding #1, Journalcrit C1.b says the most typical way of satisfying C1 is to show that the journal is included in selective citation indices, indexing services, and bibliographic databases. Examples of such services are Science Citation Index etc… I went ahead and checked, it is indeed listed in Science Citation Index: https://mjl.clarivate.com/search-results. It is only in Emerging SCI, not the main SCI, and Journalcrit doesn’t list Emerging SCI. I do not have access to check C1.c in CJR or Scopus, but if somebody does, that would provide a quick in the alternative answer under Journalcrit.
Regarding #2, I did a search based on the citation abbreviation for the publication, rather than just the publication name as published, due to the publications somewhat unfortunate name for searching, since it’s both the title and a whole topic area. This search (https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C21&q=%E2%80%9COccup.+Health+Sci.%E2%80%9C&btnG=) turns up 426 hits to this journal. I also got 34 results in Wikipedia Library. Some of them are obviously the journal itself, but I do see this journal being cited. What I don’t really see is a ton of cites by RS.
Since C1.b of Journalcrit is met by listing in Science Citation Index, I’m saying keep.
Jo7hs2 (talk) 17:56, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. You are mistaken. The journal is not in the Science Citation Index, but in the Emerging Sources Citation Index, which is much less selective and does not satisfy JOURNALCRIT#1. Neither is it in Scopus. 426 citations would not be enough (by far...) to make a single person notable, let alone a whole journal. --Randykitty (talk) 18:10, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I stand corrected. You are right, it’s in ESCI not SCI. As a result, I’m now weak delete.
    ECSI is still selective, just far less selective, do we have a policy cite that it doesn’t satisfy C1.b? I see there’s discussion of it in the talk page, but I don’t see firm policy in Journalcrit. I’d like to have something to lean on for that beyond “it’s not selective enough” without the reader knowing where the line is on selectivity.
    Jo7hs2 (talk) 18:22, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Let me clarify a tad, as I’m not satisfied I put that clearly enough…
    I don’t necessarily think ESCI should satisfy Journalcrit C1b, but since I didn’t personally see a clear policy on ESCI, only talk page comments, I’m asking if anybody knows of clear policy guidance regarding ESCI we can cite here, in case somebody asks for proof it is not selective enough. Jo7hs2 (talk) 20:25, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Shortly after (then) Thomson-Reuters started ESCI, it was found that it included even some rather shady (read "predatory") journals. To the best of my knowledge, inclusion in ESCI has never been taken as indicating notability. It's so ingrained, that I'd be hard put to find the discussion about that. In any case, nobody has ever challenged this (with the possible exclusion of some COI editors). Perhaps Headbomb remembers where this was discussed. --Randykitty (talk) 22:00, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please provide a couple of examples of Thomson-Reuters's ESCI, which only started in 2015, including predatory journals. I am curious to know that because most of us want to avoid using such journals. If T-R did include predatory journals, I suspect it is a correctable mistake made by a start-up indexer.Iss246 (talk) 04:25, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Makes sense, their criteria do appear to be extremely permissive, and if they have a history of including questionable journals, that knocks them down another level of being usable. (I took a lengthy break from editing and um…ESCI didn’t even exist the last period I was active, so I wouldn’t have seen those conversations, sadly.) Jo7hs2 (talk) 22:49, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. 2 reasons. A)per discussion above and B) lack of reliable, independent sources on the subject. Cinadon36 19:38, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. ESCI is for Emerging sources, which is basically of interest to Librarians to tell them 'Hey, this publication might be going somewhere' according to various growth metrics etc. But it still falls well below what inclusion in SCI proper would involve. This is the difference between a professional sports player, and someone that's mentioned in a recruiter's notebook as a potential recruit for 2028. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:39, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It could alternatively be merged at Society for Occupational Health Psychology if someone wants to do the work. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:41, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I vote against deletion. Here is my perspective. Occupational Health Science is a peer-reviewed journal. The editorial board publishes research on psychological, social, and behavioral factors that bear on relationship of work to health. The journal publishes empirical papers, meta-analyses, review articles, and qualitative research on workplace health and safety. Contributors come from a variety of disciplines, including psychology, public health, and medicine, which I believe is a strength.
You can check and find out that I initiated Wikipedia entries for several journals that publish on papers on the subject of work and health. These include the Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, Work & Stress, the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology, Social Science & Medicine, and the Journal of Health and Social Behavior. I have published in some of them and have read papers in all of them. I can say that I know them well. As an insider I can say that Occupational Health Science, a journal in which I have not published, belongs in the company of those other journals. OHS is a relatively new journal that perhaps makes editors question its notability. The journal publishes high-quality research and is associated with the Society for Occupational Health Psychology, which although it has the word "psychology" in its title is also crosses disciplinary boundaries. Iss246 (talk) 04:24, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
All you said here is that OHS is a peer-reviewed journal and does the things a peer-reviewed journal does, then argue that because other peer-reviewed journals are notable, this one should be notable too. But you fail to make a case for why this peer-reviewed journal is notable. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 09:08, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The journal has done good work during the COVID pandemic as you can read from this link in PubMed: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7266131/ Iss246 (talk) 19:38, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
OHS is indexed in Science Citation Index, Social Sciences Citation Index, Arts & Humanities Citation Index, Emerging Sources Citation Index, and PubMed. It is worth keeping in Wikipedia. Iss246 (talk) 19:48, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Citations for those? Because OHS (if you looked for OHES, that's a different journal) is only indexed in ESCI as far as I can tell, and is not in SCI, SSCI, nor AHCI. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:28, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What's your evidence for this? Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 00:54, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The journal OHS is indexed in a variety of databases, including Science Citation Index, Social Sciences Citation Index, Arts & Humanities Citation Index, and Emerging Sources Citation Index. An OHS article I found by way of PubMed (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32838031/) indicates that it is focused the serious problems related to the COVID-19 pandemic (e.g., occupational health of medical personnel, anti-Asia bias, work-family stress). OHS is a journal worthy of maintaining in the encyclopedia. Iss246 (talk) 15:22, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is the second time that you say this. However, this journal is not indexed in any of those databases, except for ESCI. An article published in this journal itself does not contribute to notability at all. And "worthy" is not a criterium for notability either. --Randykitty (talk) 16:10, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I accidentally omitted that OHS is also indexed in PsycINFO. Iss246 (talk) 19:16, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Randykitty, with all due respect, you are wrong about PsycINFO. First of all, it does not include predatory journals. Second, the editors are discerning. The editors take their time in selecting journals for inclusion. They are concerned about a new journal's track record. Owing to their selectivity, the editors of PsycINFO reviewed five years of OSH publications before deciding to include the journal in the database. Iss246 (talk) 00:47, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Long version: The BCW acronym would appear to refer to "British Championship Wrestling", which appears to be an ongoing Professional wrestling business, though one that in 2023 would appear still not to meet WP:ORGDEPTH. It had a Wikipedia page, which was deleted in 2007 via this AFD discussion. The television show "BWC: British Wrestling Round-Up", asserted here to be the predecessor of BWC: British Wrestling Weekly was deleted via WP:PROD in 2017. I guess the question to be answered here is, "is this a notable television show"? It doesn't appear to be one that was broadcasted on terrestrial TV networks; the assertion made here is that it was on Fight Network, a Canadian pay-tv channel, which would seem incongruous in the context of UK TV show. As for the Daily Mirror reference: as mentioned before, British Championship Wrestling appears to be an ongoing concern. A passing mention there would appear not to assist an assertion of notability. Short version: no evidence given or found that this purported UK TV series meets WP:GNG. As always, please do prove me wrong. Shirt58 (talk) 🦘 09:53, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

While the misdeed (not sure it's a crime, since there were no criminal penalties) and civil penalty were noteworthy, this individual does not have enough in-depth coverage about the person themselves, outside the event, to meet WP:GNG. Onel5969 TT me 12:16, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Referring to Wikipedia:BIO1E the guidelines allow for an article to be created for "both the event and the individual" if "media coverage of both the event and the individual's role grow larger". Indeed I have created an article ASIC v GetSwift Ltd which covers the particulars of the single civil case in more detail, and I hope to express below why I believe Hunter's role deserves its own article.
My proclamation is that Hunter's role (as Director then later CEO) became more than just ASIC v GetSwift Ltd and was significant and a major contribution to the public discourse which followed the company GetSwift. His role became the story as evidence by Hunter himself receiving the largest penalty of the three individuals involved in the event, but also the largest penalty ever imposed by the Australian Federal Court. This is further supported by the Australian Securities Exchange changing public company listing rules requiring all directors to be of "good fame and character" as a result of Hunter's actions.
I have added comprehensive coverage from numerous and multiple national media outlets covering Hunter over the course of five years.
In summary, Hunter's involvement in ASIC v GetSwift Ltd was so significant and his personal contribution was covered in such detail by the media over such a long period of time and extends beyond a single event ASIC v GetSwift Ltd it satisfies the "single event" notability test allowed for by Wikipedia:BIO1E and justifies the creation of seperate articles.
Finally as commented separately, I'm a relatively new editor and I've tried to follow other articles in Category:Australian businesspeople and whilst I acknowledge some of the aforementioned linked articles could be flagged, Hunter is more notable than many.

    @ItsMdAdnan, we are not talking about deleting it, but rather moving it to Draft: space. The article should only be in main space prior to the film's release, if the production of the film (not the film itself) is notable. After the film is released and it gets significant coverage in independent reliable sources, then the notability of the film can be established, and the article would be eligible to be main space. The question here is whether the production of the film is notable. Can you cite the top reliable sources that are independent of the subject (i.e., not interviews with cast or crew) that demonstrate significant coverage (i.e., not trivial, run-of-the-mill mentions). Things that might make a production of a film notable could any number of factors but ask yourself what makes this film notable (as written about in independent reliable sources) versus any other film production. Unless you want to argue that all film productions are notable, there ought to be some reasons why this production is notable, and another is not.  — Archer1234 (t·c) 11:46, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Check, all are independent reliable sources. Here what is not reliable source? It is most anticipated film of actor after Pathaan success. I also have tried to expand filming section with more reliable sources. SuperSharanya (talk) 15:13, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @SuperSharanya.
    How is the coverage for the production of this film any different than any other film? That might point to some reason for notability. But just citing basic facts about the production like cast & crew, filming locations, etc, is just run-of-the-mill coverage that any film would have. To me, that does not demonstrate notability.
    You say "It is most anticipated film of actor after Pathaan success." Do you have an independent reliable source that says that? If not, I urge not to assert that as a claim.
    WP:NFF says:

    Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines.

    This source says about It is most anticipated film of actor after Pathaan success. Please read full article clearly. SuperSharanya (talk) 15:37, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I do not see where it says "most anticipated film of actor after Pathaan success". However, there may be some of the article that could help establish notability. The article is basically an interview with one person, Ramesh Bala, identified as a "trade expert". Are there any other independent reliable sources that talk about the production of the film in ways that are not run-of-the-mill? The more that can be cited, the more likely the production could be considered notable.  — Archer1234 (t·c) 15:53, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: It is a shame there is not more coverage of fare like this, and any internet coverage gets harder to find if not impossible after 15 years. There's a filmpedia fandom page on the movie but it only cites two reviews from sites i don't know.[23] The movie used to have its own lifetime page, here's the archive link[24]. Nothing too helpful there, but this one comment is an incredible reaction: "I recently retired from stripping for 12 years. I am 32. I have been in go-go as well. I can say from experience that there are way more drugs and drama in go-go as apposed to naked. I was stupid for a long time and ran with bad people, that stole from me, left me in the middle of nowhere drunk with $900 in my pocket. I wasn't smart enough to come up with a plan. I was obsessed with the "I'm better than you attitude." After my second DUI I realized what this job had made me, the influence those "friends" had on me. Everyone around me had their hand out. Then I got beat up by police, they tried to ID me walking in Atlantic City with a male friend. Thinking I was a hooker, and because I refused the female officer beat me up. And after a night in jail, $5 grand on a lawyer for 3 charges that were false, I got it. Just walk away, I was gonna RUN away from the whole job. My boyfriend of 3 yrs got put through all this - because I needed to make $1100 in one night?? It's not real, none of it. With this money- nobody ever talks about the strings it comes with. The price you pay. Making $2000 a week - IS too good to be true. This movie depending on your personal experiences is true.. And most of the girls I worked with were like Angela. I have $200 shoes I didn't buy. A dancer will tell and brag about that, but she won't tell that she has to go on a date or dinner once a week with the guy. To keep him spending. And when you stop the money stops. Walking away was very hard, I had to move in with my sister and my boyfriend and I are just dating now. I let the business take over my life. But I got out, penniless, but I am alive and not selfish, nice, and best all I respect myself for all I been through. Hopefully when I tell my story it touches one person , are puts one light on for a young girl that thinks there's no strings in dancing. It's starts with that first drink that leads to everyday."--Milowenthasspoken 21:07, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

      The article provides 380 words of coverage about the subject. The review notes: "Starring Chelsea Hobbs (The L Word) as Jane, the aforementioned girl gone wrong, Confessions is a little more risque than traditional Lifetime fare -- considering that Hobbs and friends are dancing around in their underwear for a significant portion of the film. ... If it were to end there, we'd probably wind up with a happy ending - a confident young woman with a few dollars in her G-string. But no. As you might imagine, things get seamy when Jane's new friends turn out to be, shall we say, morally half-full. ... You'll have to watch the movie to see whether Jane snaps out of it, but one thing is for certain: With two hours of beautiful women go-go dancing, Lifetime's male viewership could be the highest it's ever been."

The article notes: "No full frontals in Confessions Of A Go-Go Girl (Really), a 2008 TV movie of numbing boredom – even in fast forward mode. Jane decides to give up law school for briefs of a different kind. “I want to act,” she says, go-going to pay her way through acting school after her parents take back her tuition fees.  “I wouldn’t know how to dance like that,” she says after seeing a gogo girl. Think yourself lucky, girl, it’s dreadful. ... Alas, these dancers go out with a wimper not a bang. Please, don’t wake me up before you go-go."

Delete or redirect to List_of_ambassadors_of_Australia_to_Spain(based on it being her last posting) on this one.

HOWEVER… All biographical information not from the government I managed to turn up myself seems to come from schools she has attended (https://www.uq.edu.au/news/article/2015/05/uq-alumnus-named-ambassador-spain, https://law.anu.edu.au/alumni/alumni-profiles/virginia-greville, https://www.stmargarets.qld.edu.au/125/125-notables/virginia-greville) .

Non-notable typeface. ImperialMajority (talk) 00:14, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I am not seeing sufficient sourcing to support notability. The two sources in the article are all I was able to turn up in my own search. There’s some information establishing its history, but some of the claims in the article about which films used it I could not reliably source. More importantly, the article fails Wikipedia:GNG as only see two articles, one not in-depth on the font but is a bio of the creator from a non RS, one that’s just a cursory overview of the font with a few of the uses noted, with no continuing coverage. Jo7hs2 (talk) 00:41, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no coverage for this font found. All I get are hits on the phrase or combination of the words. Oaktree b (talk) 00:56, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: has been re-directed to List of display typefaces by its original creator. XAM2175 (T) 18:23, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Because it exists does not make it notable. Not enough in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG.Onel5969 TT me 00:19, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article is based on pure speculation. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSINGLE. Doesn't use WP:RS. ItsMario97 (talk) 23:48, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Shakira: WP:CRYSTAL. There's coverage but it's pretty minimal. I see articles talking more about her recent hit "Shakira: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53" than they have to say about this song. It sounds like the song leaked so I wouldn't be surprised if there's an official release coming soon, but the coverage isn't there right now.

And for what it's worth, I don't have any reason to immediately believe El Nacional is unreliable, but the rest absolutely is. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 00:19, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Shakira. Notability isn’t inherited as Wikipedia:NSINGLE notes, and my own search failed to turn up enough coverage to justify independent notability for this yet-to-be-released single, just some speculative articles without in-depth coverage. Do think there is enough to justify redirect. Jo7hs2 (talk) 00:32, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I already read the messages, but I think that this article does not need to be moved, I think it can be kept, just as days before TQG came out they had already created the article and I think they did not do a delete query Saúl Rodrigo Martínez (talk) 02:40, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Would it be possible to just make it a draft article again until there's enough evidence to actually make a substantial article? Dune-Dawg123 (talk) 12:56, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think it's necessary to delete or move the page Saúl Rodrigo Martínez (talk) 18:23, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Shakira for now. Aside from WP:CRYSTAL, we also do not know if this new song would be notable enough to warrant its own article yet. Vida0007 (talk) 19:59, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No need to redirect, as this article refers to a song to be released soon, and information in the article may change frequently. Saúl Rodrigo Martínez (talk) 20:09, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
