Keep: Neither the nominator, nor anyone else, have provided assurances that a reasonable search has been made for additional sources per WP:BEFORE
I'm willing to change my vote to delete if assurances are provided that those searches were made Jack4576 (talk) 07:45, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep: I do have concerns about some of the writing about the organization, but the WHO acknowledged the organization's sponsorship of a major conference ("We are deeply grateful to Foundation CHILD (Fondazione per lo Studio e la Ricerca sull’Infanza e l’Adolescenza), from Italy, that provided partial financial support to the technical meeting on “Caring for Children and Adolescents With Mental Disorders: Setting WHO Directions”...."). Fixing minor mistakes and editing down verbiage is not the purpose of AfD. They have done enough, on a global basis, to be notable. Bearian (talk) 19:03, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cannot find any evidence of notability, which it has been tagged for since 2018, with zero reviews found. Sending it here to see if anyone else can find something that would justify keeping this article, and if not, then it should be deleted. DonaldD23 talk to me 22:31, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

DeleteSee below: Although (1) its plausible this entry is or may one day be of value to Wikipedians from the UK or fans of the show, and (2) the claims contained in the article are supported by reliable sources ...
... the lack of coverage, both in-depth, and assessed collectively means that this entry doesn't meet SIGCOV requirements of GNG or an SNG. I have made reasonable WP:BEFORE searches yet none were found

  • Delete: Fails GNG and WP:RPRGM. Source in article does not have SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth and BEFORE showed nothing that meets SIGCOV from IS RS. Keep vote admits that guidelines call for deletion, even after spam Keep vote.  // Timothy :: talk  00:41, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: I have found no SIGCOV and see no evidence that this meets the GNG. (Also, IMHO, a call to keep an article based on IAR is a concession that there aren't any legitimate grounds upon which to keep.) Ravenswing 01:42, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I found some references which I put on the article’s talk page —A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 03:51, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    This article requires SIGCOV to determine notability. These sources (the ones you added to the talk page) do not demonstrate SIGCOV. The 1st contains several interview quotes and is extremely WP:ROUTINE; besides that, it hardly focuses on the series itself (instead listing multiple quotes) and is quite short. The 2nd source closely resembles this description, consisting almost entirely of quotes, besides the fact that it is very short and lacks in-depth description of the series. Nythar (💬-🍀) 04:09, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I disagree. Considered together, those two sources identified by A. B. amount to significant coverage existing for this subject. The Chronicle live article in particular discusses the subject with a reasonable amount of depth; describing the show's setting, film location, release date, plot, cast, and production. SIGCOV is arguably met here.
    A subjective assessment, in any event. Jack4576 (talk) 04:22, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    SIGCOV is only determined individually. Nythar (💬-🍀) 04:28, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Incorrect, (you keep repeating this, yet have never provided any basis for that assertion)
    and in any event, the ChronocleLive article alone would be enough. Jack4576 (talk) 04:48, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. WP:ROUTINE isn't relevant as that's about notability of routine events, but the sources identified were from before the series appeared on television and consist mostly of quotes and I don't think there's enough there for an article, or another good reason to keep it as most of the content lacks sources and is possibly original research or (more likely) copied from somewhere without attribution. Peter James (talk) 14:59, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect‎ to Texas A&M University. No policy-based argument has been provided for a standalone page; subunits of a larger notable topic are logically covered under that larger article, unless it can be shown that enough independently sourced content exists that a spinoff is necessary. That has not been shown here. I don't understand the argument for a draft, as the history will remain accessible, and notability is unlikely to change in the immediate future.

Texas A&M University College of Liberal Arts[edit]

Texas A&M University College of Liberal Arts (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)

Very few individual university departments are notable, and this one is not exception--it's like almost all the other ones, and at best deserves a redirect. There is no notability as proven by reliable secondary sourcing, and no reason why there should be any; please note that all the "sourcing" is actually a collection of primary links to the Texas A&M website, and the article itself, with its list of majors and programs, just a kind of directory. Drmies (talk) 23:33, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Education and Texas. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 23:35, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pinging Rosguill, who earlier tagged this for notability; User:Miszatomic, who merged this a while ago; and Randykitty, who's dealt with this user before. Also pinging User:ElKevbo, who PRODded this before. Drmies (talk) 23:37, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Texas A&M unless independent sourcing demonstrating that the college meets GNG independently of the rest of Texas A&M can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 00:04, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I nominally have no issue with redirecting and merging WP:DUE content to another, more relevant Texas A&M-related page as suggested by Aquabluetesla below, but I would note that the current state of sourcing at Texas A&M University College of Science is no better than this article, and thus may just be kicking the can down the road (despite citing one independent source, said source does not include significant coverage of the College of Science in particular but rather is a college ranking page listing Texas A&M as a whole). signed, Rosguill talk 16:38, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    User:Rosguill, good point: that article is no better, and that article should simply redirect to the main Texas A&M article. Drmies (talk) 15:17, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • This nomination is outdated as to the present state of the article. This discussion should be Speedily Kept as per WP:SK guidelines under reason 1(b), (the nominator failed to give intelligible grounds for content deletion (i.e. arguments that would support deletion, userfying or redirection, perhaps only proposing an alternative action such as moving or merging)) and 3. (The nomination is completely erroneous. No accurate deletion rationale has been provided.) The nominator of the article has failed to revise their unintelligible or, at the very least, convoluted reason for the initial nomination. Alternatively, Keep or Merge with Texas A&M University College of Science because the new college is the College of Arts and Sciences, and they were originally founded in 1924 as the School of Arts and Sciences and split in 1965.
Please explain what "Very few individual university departments are notable, and this one is not exception--it's like almost all the other ones, and at best deserves a redirect" means. As it’s written, this makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the definition of "departments" as that words definition with context to universities is the majors or subjects such as economics, philosophy, history, etc. It’s unclear as to what you mean by "…this one is not exception". What is "it" and what are the "other ones" that you are referring to by "it's almost like all the other ones"? The other colleges of Texas A&M? The departments in the other colleges of the university? Please specify.
What do you mean by "…no reason there should be any [secondary sources]"? Why?
This page should absolutely not be deleted. The college is very notable, Phil Gramm, the U.S. Senator, taught economics at the college and until its demise, the college was one of the largest at A&M, which is in the top three of the largest universities of the United States. The college is approaching its 100th anniversary of its founding and was much larger than many of the colleges of A&M that also have pages and a less amount of sources currently. It never should have been deleted in the first place. How is it different from the other colleges/schools listed in the infobox? I will be adding more sources soon, and have found several secondary sources relating to the subject. I will be making a history section. I made a notable faculty section and might add a notable alumni section soon. I would like those arguing for it to explain the argument against merging with the College of Science and why it should be a redirect to Texas A&M University.
Pinging some editors of A&M articles for their input, Buffs, Larry Hockett, Nicolás Macri, Largoplazo, John B123, Jessicapierce, Steve Quinn, Anas1712, Purplebackpack89, and Oldag07. Aquabluetesla (talk) 02:28, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Aquabluetesla: Are there independent sources that indicate that this subject is notable? ElKevbo (talk) 02:40, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. They will be added.Aquabluetesla (talk) 04:03, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's what I'm waiting for because I'm not readily finding any and without them I'm going to support restoration of the redirect. Largoplazo (talk) 13:46, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you want this article to not be deleted as a result of this discussion, I strongly recommend that you add those references now. (And the same goes for the articles about the other colleges of this university - they'll probably be nominated for deletion on the same grounds, too, if they also lack independent sources that demonstrate notability). ElKevbo (talk) 14:15, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The sentence just above here aptly demonstrates the problem with this user: really, Aquabluetesla, you don't know which subject we're discussing here? In any case, given the absence of independent sources treating the subject in-depth: delete or redirect to Texas A&M University. I also recommend that somebody has a closer look at President of Texas A&M University. --Randykitty (talk) 07:41, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you my dear friend, I’m honoured to receive the grandiose compliment you’ve bestowed upon my additions by recommending others view the wonderful article on this present website regarding the President of Texas A&M University. I cannot quantify the joy that I feel knowing that you think the article is without flaw and are unable to name any improvements or any criticisms that must not be coming to mind. That must reflect amazingly on the superb quality of the informative content I've contributed to the page. Although, (for the record), I will not confirm or deny that I may or may not have made some significant contributions to it. I am eternally grateful for your gratitude, sincerity, and kind words. Thank you, very much so. /sAquabluetesla (talk) 09:22, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Indicating that this is sarcasm doesn't make it any more acceptable. Drmies (talk) 13:19, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please reword your opening argument. It is unacceptable and does not make the slightest amount of sense. Aquabluetesla (talk) 17:17, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's perfectly acceptable and quite clear. The core is "There is no notability as proven by reliable secondary sourcing", supplemented by the point about all the sources that you supplied being from Texas A&M itself, none of them independent of the article's subject. If the subject fails the general notability guidelines, then it probably doesn't qualify for an article. Largoplazo (talk) 17:39, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • If Phil Gramm has dogs and boards them at a kennel when he travels, does that make the kennel notable? If he plays chess and belongs to a chess club, does that make the chess club notable? No. Largoplazo (talk) 17:50, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I’m fascinated by this comment. Many reasons other than the fact that Phil Gramm taught in the college make it notable. Aquabluetesla (talk) 17:59, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    You're the one who cited it as a reason. I pointed out that it isn't one. Do you think there's a rule that unless someone dispenses with all your arguments, they shouldn't dispense with any? Anyway, unless it has received suitable independent coverage in reliable sources because of its size, its size is irrelevant here. University departments don't become notable just because they've lasted--I mean, every university English department or History department that's older than 100 isn't thereby notable. You can't just make up your own notability criteria. Largoplazo (talk) 18:52, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Information iconThis subject is about the school or College of Liberal Arts of Texas A&M University, not its individual departments. Aquabluetesla (talk) 19:03, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    School. Department. Division. College. Campus. The point is the same. And, for your own benefit, it's worth my mentioning that considering you've been informed what the primary consideration here is going to be—to spell it out, it's going to be significant coverage in independent, reliable sources—you seem to be devoting more effort to snapping back and nitpicking about details when people point out to you what isn't going to lead to a Keep outcome than to gathering sources that would lead to a Keep outcome. Largoplazo (talk) 22:31, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Now? Aquabluetesla (talk) 23:29, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Now what? The citation to the website of the school's fundraising wing? Not exactly an independent source. And it isn't really about the school anyway, it's about a generous alumnus donation. It shows not at all that the school has attained significant notice outside of its own circle, which is more or less the goal at hand. Largoplazo (talk) 23:35, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    No, you are disregarding the source on the ProQuest website. Aquabluetesla (talk) 23:38, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh, that. You mean, the dissertation presented by a Texas A&M University student to the Office of Graduate Studies at Texas A&M University. Does that seem independent to you? Largoplazo (talk) 00:02, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I just added category "Liberal arts colleges at universities in the United States" when It was still a redirect. I can't say anything more. Anas1712 (talk) 19:38, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Texas A&M. No indication the article meets WP:GNG. Phil Gramm teaching there does not make the college notable, see WP:NOTINHERETED. --John B123 (talk) 09:39, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Please explain your argument against merging with the College of Science and why it should be a redirect to Texas A&M University. Aquabluetesla (talk) 23:33, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Texas A&M University College of Science has the same issues as this article (which has already been noted in this discussion). It is likely to be sent to AfD itself soon. In my opinion, a WP:MULTIAFD is needed for most of the articles in Category:Texas A&M University colleges and schools. --John B123 (talk) 05:50, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS... --Randykitty (talk) 19:37, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    This information was cited as a counter to "Very few individual university departments are notable" demonstrating that it's pretty conclusively false...which the point that OldAg07 was making. You cited a reason he wasn't debating. Buffs (talk) 03:41, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • while good advice, that article is not official Wikipedia policy. see the top of that page. the presence of articles similar to it help establish its notability as least as it relates to Wikipedia. we aren't talking about one or two pages. we are talking hundreds. Oldag07 (talk) 20:02, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, there are likely dozens or hundreds of articles about non-notable university colleges and departments that should also be deleted. This is a very neglected part of Wikipedia that has usually been edited only by alumni and employees of those organizations - this is a long overdue correction. ElKevbo (talk) 20:36, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Correct, it isn't an official policy. It's an elaboration on common sense. A consistent history of a particular kind of criminal charge under particular cirumstances being thrown out of court indicates to prosecutors that it's foolish to bring more of such cases to court. But the occurrence of many bank robberies where the robbers haven't been prosecuted because they haven't been caught yet doesn't mitigate the seriousness of charges when they are raised against a particular bank robber who's been caught. That latter point is the entirely valid one that WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS makes. One points to essays like that in discussions like these because the reasoning is already fully spelled out in the essays, sparing everyone the repetition of it at length in every discussion where it's relevant. Policy isn't the only thing with value. Largoplazo (talk) 22:43, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I respectfully disagree that the point here wasn't "OTHERSTUFFEXISTS" so this should (which was the primary point of the essay). He already said "merge it". Buffs (talk) 03:58, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Make this a draft I respect the efforts of Aquabluetesla to improve this article, but at this point, it doesn't meet the threshold for a separate article. To a certain extent, it includes information that could be incorporated into the Texas A&M article (mostly already is). Information that is too detailed could be added as a note and I see nothing procedurally to discourage that. There's no reason to lose the information here. I would caution people about throwing around "not an independent source". Very little of the cited information is remotely controversial or something that a University would lie about. While we need to avoid boosterism, the date the College began or their enrollment is hardly controversial unless it is a wild claim. Such claims are submitted to the US Government under penalty of perjury...they have little reason to lie and are checked by the US Dept of Education. Buffs (talk) 03:57, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete. I don't see the kind of coverage of winning the programming competition that would grant GNG notability. No sign of academic notability yet for a current graduate student, of course. It's possible that one could make some kind of combined case, say though the programming guide plus the competitions, but this would require more evidence of impact than is in the article (and I did not find more).

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:

    People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.

    • If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

      The article notes: "Since the age of six, David Hernandez has found a second home on stage. ... Hernandez made his acting debut in a production of Annie before starring in other musicals. Just as he was finding happiness performing, however, Hernandez went to live with his father and his relationship with music entered rocky terrain. Growing up in a Mexican-American religious household, Hernandez confronted hyper-masculine ideals and beliefs that deterred him from the stage. Performance was looked at as feminine, a view continually contrasted with his younger brother's natural athleticism. Hernandez felt like he "needed to be more like him." Music was quickly put on hold."

      The article notes: "David Hernandez had one of the most controversial runs on American Idol, but his journey after the singing competition series has been wholly inspiring. ... In 2016, David released a new song, "Beautiful", which was utilized as a vehicle for the star to come out as a gay man. Unlike when David's past, which was divulged during his run on American Idol, the singer-songwriter's public embrace of his LGBTQ identity was met with support and love. David has continued to release music including his album Kingdom: The Mixtape in 2018 and several singles since. David's newest song, "ily.", came out on May 21, 2021."

  • Comment: My original nomination of this article was based on my interpretation of the criteria at WP:NSINGER. Reading the following - "Singers and musicians who are only notable for participating in a reality television series may be redirected to an article about the series, until they have demonstrated that they are independently notable." - it would be appropriate to redirect this article to the appropriate season of American Idol, which is what I probably should have done in the first place.

  • Keep Per Cunard's comment above, Hernandez has clearly garnered considerable news coverage since his time on Idol. --Jpcase (talk) 20:45, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. We have been eliminating the runners-up ("best of the rest") of American Idol, but primarily on the basis of WP:BLP1E versus WP:MUSIC. In other words, if they did not parlay their 15 minutes of fame from reality television, then their articles get deleted. However in this case, the subject went on many television, stage, and radio shows, garnering significant coverage, albeit from trashy TV shows, Billboard, Out magazine, and tabloids. His work off-broadway and in Las Vegas pushes him over the top. Bearian (talk) 19:12, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable private company. Created by a block-evading sockpuppet using the company website as their only source, several editors have tried cleaning it up over the years. Searches found no sources that would meet WP:CORPDEPTH. An academic study of the industry mentions what they produce and how much (they're the smallest of five chlor-alkali manufacturing companies in Bangladesh).[2] Other than that, there is only primary source coverage, and it is not of the company itself.[3][4][5] Perhaps a sentence about the company could be added to a new "economy" section in Sreepur Upazila, Gazipur (where the factory is located), and this article could be redirected there.

  • Delete and salt Quite honestly, I don't understand why the G4 keeps being denied; this was deleted following an AfD less than a month ago, and even if the article content may not be technically the same, the gist of it is, namely: there is no evidence of notability per WP:GNG. I also think salting is required as certain authors clearly do not respect community decisions. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:50, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:GNG WP:UNSOURCED. More broadly speaking, almost all articles in Category:Turkvision Song Contest are either partially or wholly unsourced, or rely only on the official websites turkvision.info and turkvizyon.tv, or eurovoix.com. Eurovoix is probably an RS, also used for Eurovision articles, but the only serious RS which seems to report anything at all about Turkvision in the past 10 years. It seems very much like Turkvision has generally failed to imitate Eurovision, with many cancellations throughout the years and an uncertain future, and except for Eurovoix nobody really seems to have covered it. (Personally I had never heard about it until today). Many of these articles should have been inadmissible at the time of creation due to WP:GNG, and it is very much a question whether even the main article would still meet GNG after several years of opportunity to garner publicity. (There are some passages in Google Books, but I'm not sure if they would meet WP:SIGCOV). At any rate, let this list be a test case, we can look at the rest later.

I raised my issue about seasons of Junior Bake Off at Talk:The Great British Bake Off, but I've yet to see replies there. Right now, I'm nominating this season as a test nomination before nominating other seasons.

Apparently, this season article consists of recapping people's bakes and ratings, but that's not the main reason to nominate. (Other season articles of reality TV series recap what happened in those seasons.) Other than TV viewerships/ratings, either I couldn't find other reliable sources verifying this season's notability, or very few or no reliable sources cover this season significantly.

Furthermore, list of winners and runners-up is already summarized in Junior Bake Off, and the whole season article may not comply with WP:NOTEVERYTHING. Should be redirected to the parent article Junior Bake Off. George Ho (talk) 08:04, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unsure whether to use Daily Mirror per WP:RSP#Daily Mirror, but the quote from the source (IMO contextually) praises hosting and judging performances, not the whole seventh series. Another Daily Mirror article as a whole is quoting Twitter posts that alleged production interference or "fixing".
Couldn't find RSN discussions about The Sunday People, a tabloid, but it does the same thing that the Daily Mirror article does. I don't think both of them contextually discusses the whole seventh series itself, like young/juvenile contestants themselves.
The quote from Radio Times, more reliable to me than the former two, was just previewing or advertising (the premiere of) the seventh series. One from Nottingham Post (tabloid), mainly about Paul Hollywood substituting for Liam Charles, can be easily summarised in the parent series article Junior Bake Off and (IMHO) doesn't improve the 7th series's notability much.
The quote from New Straits Times about one Malaysian juvenile baker Aisya Syahrul, one of runners-up, seems to be more about her than the whole 7th series itself. Unsure whether that's sufficient proof of the 7th series's notability as much as proof of her supposed notability, but (contextually) that makes her known only for her Junior Bake Off appearance, which WP:BLP1E is against.
A Surrey Advertiser article seems promising... at first, but then I figured it's just previewing or advertising a then-upcoming episode. So is a Birmingham Mail (tabloid) article, but it's mostly citing Twitter posts by viewers.
A Huddersfield Daily Examiner (tabloid) article about one of runners-up seems promising, but it's more about him than the whole series itself. Yet his notability only for his Junior Bake Off appearance would be against WP:BLP1E.
Quote from an Evening Chronicle (tabloid) article seems to be previewing one of then-upcoming episodes.
Honestly, I don't know how you think such tabloid articles are reliable proof of the seventh series's notability. Furthermore, news or tabloid articles about individual juvenile bakers.... Anyways, I'm unsure how those sources will change my stance about this (seventh) series. George Ho (talk) 02:33, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I consider the Daily Mirror and The People to be sufficiently reliable for television reviews as one editor at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 296#Daily Mirror said about the Daily Mirror. The sources cover the series by reviewing the performances of the host and judges. The Radio Times is a strong source that discusses the whole series (the host, the judges, and the contestants). These sources are sufficient for the series to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline. I provided the sources that discuss episodes and the individual contestants to show that the article can be significantly expanded to discuss each episode and some of the contestants' performances in the series. There is more than enough content in the sources to justify a standalone article about the series. Cunard (talk) 05:08, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Sources analyzed above seem fine. Daily Mirror is iffy, but with all the others, it helps notability. They aren't spreading rumours about one star on the series, they're talking about the show.

  • Merge into Junior Bake Off as a premature, unjustified WP:SPINOFF. The little writeup Junior Bake Off (series 7) has to offer is badly needed at the target. Applies to all annual editions, except for series 2 and 8 that should be redirected. gidonb (talk) 11:20, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Pardon me, but which info do you think is worth merging into Junior Bake Off? From what I can see, the elimination list and results charts are tremendous. Of course, we can do without names of bakes (not bakers) and technical challenge rankings. Probably just brief summarized chart of heats and finals would do? George Ho (talk) 11:45, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I explained it above. The merge refers to the text. Junior Bake Off is short. Junior Bake Off (series 7) is flimsy. There needs to be justification for a WP:SPINOFF or WP:SPINOUT. Nonesuch here! gidonb (talk) 11:48, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge brief properly sourced paragraph into Junior Bake Off. Fails GNG and BIO. The above source eval shows there is not SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. Sources brief and from promos in routine entertainment news, nothing with SIGCOV. This is an unneeded spinoff fork.  // Timothy :: talk  05:12, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: WP:SPINOFF says, "There are two situations where spinoff articles frequently become necessary". The first situation: "Articles where the expanding volume of an individual section creates an undue weight problem". Junior Bake Off (series 7) already is a very large article that contains tables about the series (the bakers, the results, and a summary of each episode). It would be undue weight to merge all the material to the parent article so this is a valid spinoff. The sources I've listed here contain critical commentary about series 7 and discuss the bakers, their performances throughout series 7, and summaries of each episodes. The article can be substantially expanded with these sources. Cunard (talk) 06:52, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. The Junior Bake Off article had per season chapters of about 4 lousy sentences per season. Junior Bake Off is a short article. Since the article accumulated a lot of "deadweight" in the form of fancruft tables, someone seriously erred and spun off the seasons anyway, leaving us with about 4 sentences in the spun-off articles and only about 2 in the parent, probably to give more space for the deadweight fancruft, turning the parent and all its children into POOR quality articles. Nominator nevertheless took this into the rabbit hole of notability, took pride in not looking into the problem as a whole, and others followed them right into the notability hole. This article and its siblings, however, call for an information governance solution and a bit more than one-dimensional thinking. gidonb (talk) 20:34, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Motherless" (not having a mother) is ambiguous with only one other topic: Motherless (film). A disambiguation page is not required (WP:ONEOTHER); the primary topic article has a hatnote to the only other use. Where the primary topic redirect Motherless should target (Single parent or Orphan) is a matter for WP:RFD and does not require a disambiguation page.

  • Agreed, certainly don't need this disambiguation page because at best it refers to only two topics. I don't think it needs to refer to Single parent anyway, as that article is looking at things from the perspective of the parent, not the state of the child, and if a link to Orphan is appropriate, that can be done by a hat-note. If more topics appear, then of course disambig can be reinstated. Elemimele (talk) 13:07, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is a term which is a synonym of Far-right politics, and should not be a separate article. Walt Yoder (talk) 00:19, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: The article for ultraconservatism has been deleted so many times due to it being a redirect. If it were to simply be a synonym for Far-right politics, can we have consensus that it should redirect to that article? There have been plenty of users in the past who have argued that ultraconservative ≠ far-right, so this clarification is necessary.--WMrapids (talk) 00:25, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Agree with Vipz on the sources' definitons of ultraconservatism. HeartCat1💬📝 04:23, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Per Vipz, the sources make a distiction between the far-right and ultraconservatives, and from a political point of view, a distinction can be made through their tolerance of moderates and social beliefs. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 09:02, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - ’Ultraconservatism’ is a term I find very useful, as it simply refers to an extreme form of conservatism. The term far-right is sometimes used to refer to very non-conservative groups such as revolutionary nazis or hardcore libertarians, making the relation to classical conservatism dubious. Trakking (talk) 21:52, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree with Trakking. "Far right" can be anything extreme that is not Leftist, including Conservatism. Therefore, "Ultraconservatism" is a part of "Far right", not a synonym.
    Then, my opinion is: the article "Ultraconservatism" should be kept. Gondolabúrguer (talk) 16:15, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

* Delete: The definition of "ultraconservatism" is very different from the sources used by WMrapids. Jason H. Gart's definition says "Ultraconservatism, which combine(s) traditional anticommunist rhetoric with fresh acrimony toward civil rights legislation, welfare programs, organized labor, and taxation" while, according to the New York Times, "Huntington sees ultraconservatism as a broad part of the right-wing spectrum, encompassing fringe extremists, racists, violent reactionaries and those willing to moderate their views when and where necessary.", contrasting with his definition: "Ultraconservatives occupy a broad section of the right-wing continuum, wedged between conservative pragmatists, those willing to moderate their views and work with the political center, and fringe extremists.". The one from El Orden Mundial says: "(ultraconservatism) adds elements such as populism, anti-immigration or protectionism to traditional values, and encompasses a recent international wave that includes former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, the Spanish Vox party or the US radical right promoted by figures like Trump. These movements have also been described as neoconservative due to similarities such as the strong rejection of the left. However, the importance they give to national sovereignty contradicts the foreign policy interventionism of US neoconservatism".
----
Neither of the three sources used have a coherent definition, the first one labeling "ultraconservatism" as opposition to civil rights legislation, welfarism, taxation combined with anti-communism, the second one as a branch of the right-wing composed of extremists, racists and reactionaries and rightist willing to cooperate with centrists (not a concrete term but an umbrella one), the fourth one as a populist and protectionist variant of neo-conservatism that also supports traditional values (doesn't common conservatism also defend traditional values?) and opposes interventionism. Also note how the user that made the article uses directly a definition from the Oxford dictionary to start the article, violating the Wikipedia:DICDEF rule.

I invited some users with expertise in the field of "conservatism" from the WikiProject Conservatism to debate if the article should be deleted or not. Alejandro Basombrio (talk) 21:58, 1 May 2023 (UTC) User indefinitely blocked per WP:NOTHERE.--WMrapids (talk) 21:05, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Many political ideologies don't have a consistent definition, or you could find varying definitions in use in reliable sources. (t · c) buidhe 19:42, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Agree with previous commemts: the concept may be partially included sometimes in the "far-right" label, but not necessarily. The concept is properly sourced, too. If the New Oxford American Dictionary, among other reliable sources, consider that this is a relevant and stand-alone concept, who are we to deny it? PedroAcero76 (talk) 21:59, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect or Delete. I think this might be something of, I don't know what to call it -- a "RACKENSTEIN"? Essentially, all of the sources here do use the phrase "ultraconservative", but it's not clear that they are doing so as a reference to a coherent group. To explain this a little better, I offer an analogy: we can imagine an article called gigantic tree, for which exact phrase a newspapers.com search brings up 26,000 results. But this does not indicate that anybody is using "gigantic tree" to mean a specific type of thing meaningfully separate from a "large tree" or a "huge tree". You could try anyway: A gigantic tree is any tree that is of notably large size. Different commentators have given different heights for a gigantic tree, ranging from 50 feet to 300 feet. That looks like what has happened here. The 1961 New York Times article says, for example: "Senator Jacob K. Javits said today ultra-conservative fanaticism in the United States was under control. But he warned that it 'represents a danger to the Republican party'." Here, it just seems like he is talking about people who are very conservative (i.e. much more so than the Republican party of the time). This article seems to use it the same way: note that the abstract says "systematic analyses on how far-right leaders recreate their countries' foreign policy identity are still underdeveloped"; it doesn't at any point advance "ultraconservative" as a thing separate from being unusually far-right. If there are any sources that actually establish or comment on "ultraconservatism" as something separate from the simple fact of someone being extremely conservative, ping me, and I will strike this "delete" !vote -- but I do not see any here. jp×g 07:54, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @JPxG: These are very good points, and I would have most likely voted for 'delete' the first time had that been nominator's rationale. Would you say there's merit in a redirect and/or a paragraph & anchor about it somewhere in Conservatism and/or Far-right politics (without all the coatrack content)? –Vipz (talk) 15:28, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    @WMrapids: as the author of the original article, what do you think about above (please also see my new vote on the top of the page)? I presume you also saw my ping in this diff regarding the coatrack content (Germany and France sections) that was added by another editor. Cheers. –Vipz (talk) 11:56, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment: @Vipz: It is difficult for me because there are good arguments against coat racking, but there seems to be a difference. My main concern is, are there reliable sources that explicitly say that far-right = ultraconservatism or authoritarian conservatism = ultraconservatism? There are sources that explain ultraconservatism and define it, though I have not found any sources that equate ultraconservatism with anything else. WMrapids (talk) 21:55, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @WMrapids: I'll go with the latter for now because that's what I proposed above. There's a plentiful of sources that describe certain ruling regimes as ultraconservative, authoritarian [...] or ultraconservatism, authoritarianism [...] (incl. swapped order of these words) and these two go hand-in-hand in most, but finding explicit "ultraconservatism = authoritarian conservatism" statements can prove a bit more difficult. Here are a few that might come close:
    • Use with Care: Managing Australia's Natural Resources in the Twenty-first Century, pg. 256 ultra-conservatism, a weltanschauung characterised by a strong commitment to an authoritarian social order [...]
    • How White Evangelicals Think: The Psychology of White Conservative Christians, pg. 84: Ultraconservative ideologies then cause people to embrace authoritarian policies and leaders in the face of persistent threats, real or imagined.69 This happens crossculturally. The specics may be dierent, but the general process is the same.
    • Encyclopedia of Power, pg. 33: On average, authoritarian personality is still used primarily for ultraconservatives such as religious fundamentalists, military dictators, theocrats, and so on.
    • Political Socialization in Western Society: An Analysis from a Life-span Perspective, pg. 129: [...] They found authoritarianism to be related to political ultra-conservatism and fascism.
    The central theme in many other sources is that they are illiberal, anti-democratic, nationalist, ethnocentric, extreme right, etc. and that ultraconservatives tend to argue for authoritarianism. I can link and list out quotes for any of these if needed. –Vipz (talk) 07:13, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Vipz: It's about the same as what I found. Interpreting the sources in such a way would be WP:SYNTH, so unless we have something more definitive, it could be inappropriate to make this article a redirect. WMrapids (talk) 03:25, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep the term is part of the lexicon. Ultra-Liberal brings back fewer results but is also defined and used just not as often. If this article is kept Ultra-Liberal may warrant an article as well. Lightburst (talk) 15:50, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Are you saying that the term "ultraconservatism" is a suitable topic for an article (i.e. WP:WORDISSUBJECT) or that the concept is? TompaDompa (talk) 16:01, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    "Ultra-liberal" is WP:OTHERSTUFF and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. jp×g's comment above addresses exactly this. –Vipz (talk) 16:58, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Vipz: Are you suggesting a redirect then? We should still determine where a redirect should go since the notable usage of the term itself warrants some sort of article attention, whether it be a redirect or independent. WMrapids (talk) 22:45, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @WMrapids: I certainly am suggesting a redirect, as can be seen in my reiterated vote on the top. The topic is about conservatism (albeit of an extreme kind) so I see Conservatism as the appropriate redirect target. I'm not sure whether a merge of some content is warranted if that is done, and what's the best approach. Without much thought about it, #Authoritarian conservatism section seemed most relevant. –Vipz (talk) 23:20, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Where does this fall on the spectrum of conservatism? We have "very conservative" (111,000 Google News results), "ultra-conservative" (6,970), "super-conservative" (77), "extremely conservative" (11,600), and "tremendously conservative" (10). I would say that these phrases are just happenstance resulting from someone putting an intensifier on "conservative", and that "super-conservative" and "extremely conservative" do not actually refer to significantly different concepts. There are no sources I can see that lay out a spectrum with meaningful distinctions. (Parenthetically, note also the news results for "infra-conservative" (0), "red conservative" (67), "blue conservative" (also 67), "X-conservative" (62) and "gamma conservative" (3)). jp×g 22:01, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Can't find any decent sourcing in either English or Nepali (जागरूकता अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय एकेडेमी) to show WP:NORG or WP:GNG. Current article has no independent sources and is borderline WP:PROMO. In fact, removing the PROMO would leave only one sentence. The only source of any note that I could find was Kpadhne but this doesn't look like independent WP:RS at all as there is no evidence of editorial oversight. Also, the Kpadhne is full of PROMO sentences like If you are residing in the Shankhamul area then, Awareness International Academy can be the best school choice for your children and Awareness International Academy is one of the best private school located in Shankhamul which you would not usually find in RS.

    The existing coverage of the party itself is pretty minor, with most being on Sharma himself, and given the likelyhood that they don't exist anymore I don't expect additional coverage. The rest is already covered in the leader Gaurav Sharma's article, which given the only election the party was in was just him, I don't see a need for what is essentially a duplicate article.

Found this profile in Modern Drummer but nothing else pointing to notability, and I'm not even clear on who wrote that profile (the text block along the bottom of the page implies this is just promo the magazine gives to anyone who mails in asking for it rather than anything sign of relevance) so it might fail as a reliable source anyway.

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians and California. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 08:50, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - There is some odd ancient history here. The user Dante Roberson appeared on WP for just one single day: April 1, 2006, during which he created this article in a single edit, meaning that he probably copy/pasted the text from his own promo sites elsewhere. A few minutes later, a different user tied his article to the surname article Roberson, leading to this discussion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roberson, which in turn resulted in no consensus and allowed this Dante Roberson article to survive. It has been sitting here ever since, and with no significant updates to anything that he has done since 2006. It could/should have been deleted at any time during this history. Roberson clearly is/was a trusty studio hand and go-to drummer for musicians in need of assistance and he has a lot of credits, but he has not achieved any reliable media coverage of his career in his own right. This is the state of affairs both in 2006 and in 2023. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 00:00, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if you know what routine is, but an article that wouldn't appear if he didn't win the title is definitely not GNG-contributing. Timothytyy (talk) 08:18, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Wedding announcements, sports scores, crime logs, and other items that tend to get an exemption from newsworthiness discussions should be considered routine. Routine events such as sports matches, film premieres, press conferences etc. Why article #1 not a routine-> thts not about just a sport scores (especially the sources not a "box scores"; see: WP:NOTROUTINE) There were some detail facts in the article, tht means the article clearly have sigcov of Angus Gilmour not just a routine as u said.Stvbastian (talk) 09:22, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
These are the only parts where coverage is provided.
Gilmour, 18, said: "This is a really big title for us because it’s the first European tournament we’ve won. The guys we beat in the final we hadn’t played before so they were new to us. It’s good to get the victories against them and also good that we didn’t drop a set in the whole competition."
...
Gilmour has been a full time player for the past season. He is a member of Badminton Scotland’s Junior High Performance squad and has been supported by the West of Scotland Institute of Sport for the past five years.
Being European No.1s will help the pair in their quest for the European under 19 Championships in Milan this April. Gilmour added: "It’s fantastic to be No. It will be a big confidence boost for us preparing for the European Junior Championships. We are definitely hoping to get a medal there and if we work hard there should be no reason why we can’t."
Let's discuss on whether this makes the subject pass GNG. Timothytyy (talk) 11:11, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

For source 1 there are only quotes from the player and "Gilmour has been a full time player for the past season. He is a member of Badminton Scotland’s Junior High Performance squad and has been supported by the West of Scotland Institute of Sport for the past five years." which is not coverage and therefore may not be able to demonstrate GNG. Timothytyy (talk) 14:13, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
don't act like u don't understand lah. As i said above, the link #3 is an "example" for WP:ROUTINE article (article that only show results of the tournament, without explanation). If you still dont understand, here another example for routine article -> 4. Still don't understand? need more example? feel free to ask me.. And for source #1, Angus Gilmour not just a trivial mention. Surpass trivial mention means the article is a sigcov, especially he is the main topic in the article. From head to toe we can get some detail about Angus Gilmour: -He is from Troon; -He won the Belgium Open; -At that time he was European #1 junior badminton player; He is a member of Badminton Scotland's Junior High Performance squad. Stvbastian (talk) 15:42, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The sources provided so far are ROUTINE. The first Daily Record article is plainly a routine announcement that he won a tournament, and furthermore offers little more than two sentences of non-quote coverage of him--nowhere close to SIGCOV even if it wasn't RotM. NOTNEWS states For example, routine news coverage of announcements, events, sports, or celebrities, while sometimes useful, is not by itself a sufficient basis for inclusion of the subject of that coverage, and ROUTINE expands with Planned coverage of scheduled events, especially when those involved in the event are also promoting it, is considered to be routine. Wedding announcements, sports scores, crime logs, and other items that tend to get an exemption from newsworthiness discussions should be considered routine. Routine events such as sports matches... NSPORT then implements these (non-exhaustive) definitions of "routine coverage" and "routine events" in its guidance on what contributes to SIGCOV for athletes. The article on winning the Belgium Open was planned coverage of a scheduled event and would have been written regardless of who won it; it is ROUTINE. JoelleJay (talk) 21:35, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
ROUTINE examples: Modern-day sporting events appear regularly in blogs or in local news as sports scores (sometimes called "box scores") "without details". Such box scores are examples of routine coverage. And the article not just such a box scores. routine coverage" is not a disqualification for notability. Stvbastian (talk) 23:15, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to fail GNG, and interchanges are required to meet GNG. Most of the sources talk about the roads that intersect rather than the intersection itself. Other sources are not secondary. [11] comes close but comes off as part editorial. It is unclear whether Greater Greater Washington articles that come up in Google news can be considered reliable. Rschen7754 05:17, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Rename as Starburst Plaza, a phrase that already directs to the article. Starburst Plaza is the name of the plaza between the Bladensburg Road and Benning Road legs of the intersection. If the focus of the article is on the plaza rather than on the intersection, we can better evaluate whether the article should stand alone or be merged into a list of similar features like a hypothetical List of squares in Washington, D.C. or List of plazas in Washington, D.C..
    • Comment The plaza is just one component of the overall Starburst Intersection, arguably less important than the traffic configuration or history of how the streets came to be arranged, which dates back to the L'Enfant Plan. While the plaza may deserve its own article in the future, it is not the primary focus of this article. Annettet (talk) 01:50, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment—Greater Greater Washington is a volunteer-driven site that is more commentary and news-aggregator than actual news. The site has some journalistic value, but I would not consider it a reliable source. VC 19:52, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – The Starburst Intersection is a convergence of streets, neighborhoods, transit modalities, and District of Columbia communities past and present. It is referred to by this name in local news reports[1][2][3][4][5][6][7], real estate news[8][9], and materials produced by the D.C. government[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. I have modified the main article to include citations that are more "notable." Annettet (talk) 01:50, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – To the best of my knowledge this article is the only resource, online or otherwise, that connects the dots between the multiple aspects of this unique location in Washington, D.C. It would be a shame to erase this information from existence, particularly as the area continues to undergo rapid change and development. Over the last 90 days the article has consistently received 5-10 views per day. This may seem low by many standards, but indicates to me that there is a steady stream of people curious to learn about this place called the "Starburst Intersection".

  • Delete Per Annettet's utter failure to find significant coverage of this intersection despite major WP:REFBOMBing and the attempt to split this out from the topic of Starburst Plaza, which might have some notability. Just because it exists doesn't mean it's notable in Wikipedia terms. The "improved" article doesn't really discuss the intersection/area as a whole, just things that may have happened to pass through the area. A notable location would have references that provide significant coverage of the location itself, not merely things that happen to be in that location. The only source maybe giving SIGCOV (Giambrone 2015) does so for Starburst Plaza, but not Starburst Intersection. The views per day "argument" is totally spurious and the other arguments are appeals to emotion, not Wikipedia policy or guidelines. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 23:49, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I did not intentionally WP:REFBOMB (and in fact didn't know that was "a thing" until seeing the accusation in the previous comment). I was trying to make the case that the "Starburst Intersection" is a real place, referenced regularly by people who live in, work in, and work for the District of Columbia. Annettet (talk) 18:22, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

From what I can tell, and I am currently researfching PIT, writing a book on it and looking at it from the POV of the SciPol Wikiedia project, there are a couple of books on it, an NGO network and a university network supoorting it, with lots of webpages covering it, and that's it, as it only started in 2020. What does not help is that the public Interest main article is crappy. My gut instinct based on that is to add a decent summary of PIT to the public interest main article and then delete the PIT article. Still, I'd like to think about it for a while. Johncdraper (talk) 08:41, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This seems to allude to the fact that the public interest main article needs work and expansion, not that this article shoulde be deleted. There are several topics not covered on public interest other than the technology aspect.

  • Leaning to keep - Variety of sources in the article are reliable and dedicated to the subject - so this is definitely a thing. As an umbrella article public Interest has a short summary and links here - which should be perfectly fine. Also - Johncdraper has done some cleanup since the nom. ResonantDistortion 20:01, 22 May 2023 (UTC
  • Keep per WP:RS and WP:GNG albeit the article seems to need an overhaul. For example, Bruce Schneier is not even mentioned or in the refs, he does a lot in this area using this term, e.g. see here. I don't think the article is promotional but haven't checked it thoroughly. It probably needs expansion as well as some restructuring, e.g. structuring by field of technology (e.g. Software, etc). Note that many sources use this terminology, however many about relevant topics use phrasing like public interest alternatives for important AI tools1 despite also being related. It would be good to transclude a brief summary with a wikilink to the article at Public Interest but merging this article to there would be too detailed.

No indication of notability. The closest approaches are 1) director of his own clinic, "Nallam Clinic"; 2) wrote a book "History of Medicine in French India"; 3; a number of miscellaneous positions and awards noted in "Posts and honors".

Neither the clinic nor the book appear to me to convey notability; I'm not familiar with all the things listed under "posts and honors", so I'm willing to be corrected, but they do not (at least on their own) appear to convey notability, either. (If an award was made in recognition of something that conveys notability, of course, that would be different, but no such things are noted in the article or in anything I can readily find.)

The article was started by and has been frequently edited by User:Drnallamv, whose edit history shows he has edited no other articles. Obviously the article's creation and continued editing by an editor who appears to be the subject raises WP:COI factors, which is not itself grounds for deletion, but in this case seems to be crossing the line into a mere vanity article.

I note that the article has previously been deleted, but that was under WP:BLPPROD, which I don't regard as having any real indication on notability one way or the other here. TJRC (talk) 15:32, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally as an academic led student group, there are most likely other resources in JSTOR or academic presses. There was a promotional tag that someone placed and the student group does appear to be looking for corporate sponsors and there is the possibility that is somewhat reflected in how the article might have been originally written.

I've done some reasonable investigation online for reliable sources that would support notability for the voice actor who is the subject of this article, but have failed to find anything. I believe this is a controversial nomination owing to the passion that some editors might have over the work of this voice actor. I believe there is sufficient information to support some of the voice acting instances, but these should be placed in the respective work articles and do not contribute to notability of this voice actor in the context of Wikipedia. I am further feeling pressure to nominate this as a part of reducing the overall heft of the thousands of un-referenced living person biographies. I hope editors can find material to be able to retain the article. Regards. User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:49, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Generally speaking, i don't consider somewhat prolific voice actors/ charactor actors like Aaron Krohn to be particularly notable. While Krohn actually has a ton of dubbing roles from his days at ADV Films, with more than a few being lead roles; he's left behind dubbing for a couple decades and isn't well-remembered by the English-speaking anime community today. I do have arguments against this page's deletion, but if they're rejected i still understand. The main thing is there is a lot of incorrect/ misleading/ unverified/ biased info floating around online for public figures, especially on IMDb. I figure a Wikipedia article could provide a place to put accurate sources for his career and the careers of others.

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:

    People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.

    • If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

In 2014’s “Transformers: Age of Extinction,” for example, he was simply described as “Dorky Driver.” The “This Is Us” designation was “Ice Cream Employee,” but in Monday’s episode of Fox’s “Lucifer,” he’s credited as “Frazzled P.A.” Covais, 28, was born and raised in Levittown, and appeared on “Idol” while he was a junior at Island Trees High School."

Now Mr. Covais, a geeky 16-year-old junior at Island Trees High School was about to face a hometown crowd of classmates and friends he hadn't seen in nearly three months of competition on "American Idol," and he was trying to play it cool. ...

To respond to User:JMWt, with the basics of what a redirect is: a redirect, at least makes sense, to provide information to readers looking for the topic. The list-article row directly provides information, in context (and sometimes/often it is more informative for coverage of a topic to be within a list-article, as relative matters, context gives more than what a short individual stub can provide. A redirect clarifies that Wikipedia does not have an article on the topic under any name variation. The use of redirect provides edit history and enables restoration and expansion in the future if coverage/sources warrant, with adherence to the promise of Wikipedia that editors' writing will be credited to them. These are basics of Wikipedia. If you don't understand, perhaps your asking questions at wp:TEAHOUSE would help you. --Doncram (talk,contribs) 12:58, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't need the personal attacks thanks. It is a fact, not an opinion, that in AfD debates you need to address the GNG. Just repeating that WP:ILIKEIT is not much of a contribution to the debate. JMWt (talk) 14:56, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Local councillor, fails WP:NPOL Park3r (talk) 04:55, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep: SIGCOV arguably met. Again, please, do some searches before these noms.
Even if not met, still a councillor at a major Australian metropolitan city. Strongly arguable that this qualifies for WP:POLITICIAN; and failing that, still notable under GNG for the same reason. Jack4576 (talk) 10:52, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NPOL grants automatic notability for national and state/provincial level, not local government. LibStar (talk) 12:55, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am not invoking WP:NPOL for automatic notability.
I am invoking SIGCOV on GNG for a presumption of notability; with alternative GNG argument based on the facts unique to this particular case. Jack4576 (talk) 15:21, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Town or city councillors are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and just having a handful of purely run of the mill local coverage in the local media is not sufficient to claim that they pass WP:GNG and are therefore exempted from NPOL — every councillor in every town or city always gets some local hits in the local media, so if that were how it worked then every councillor would always get that exemption and NPOL itself would be meaningless because no councillor would ever be subject to it at all anymore. So the bar for inclusion of local councillors is not "local media coverage exists", it's "they have an unusually large volume and depth and range of coverage, above and beyond what most other councillors could just as easily show, thus providing a credible reason why this person could legitimately be deemed a special case of much greater individual notability than the norm", which isn't what the sourcing on the table here is showing. Bearcat (talk) 20:09, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Brisbane city council is the most powerful council in Australia. Comparisons to 'every town' are nonsensical.
    This council is exceptional in Australian politics. There's your special case. Jack4576 (talk) 16:26, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Bearcat. The article fails WP:BIO and WP:NPOL is pretty clear in that local councillors aren't presumed notable. It is true that Brisbane City Council is very large and powerful, but it is still a local council, similar to most others except size. JML1148 (Talk | Contribs) 05:11, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    No one is arguing that the article should be retained on the basis that councillors are inherently notable, or presumed notable
    What you are doing by saying "but it is still a local council" is arguing that councils are inherently not-notable. This is a problem
    If you acknowledge that Brisbane City Council is very large and powerful, it follows that if SIGCOV has been met; this article meets Wikipedia's notability requirements Jack4576 (talk) 05:41, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    You still don't give up on Brisbane councillors being inherently notable do you? Now with the new line the Council is "powerful". LibStar (talk) 09:24, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Regardless of the “power” of the council there are 26 wards, which dilutes the “power” of each councillor. In any case notability is WP:NOTINHERITED Park3r (talk) 05:31, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    No one has argued for inherent notability Jack4576 (talk) 10:26, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. I can't find anything about the building, but perhaps the article's creator used a non-standard English spelling. The claims in the article (being a listed building, being "one of the finest country houses in Pakistan") would indicate notability if they can be verified.

  • Delete my first reaction was the same as Eastmain’s, but I can’t turn up any sources for this in English or Urdu. Oddly the article describes the building as unfinished, suggesting it’s not a historic palace at all. Anyway the whole thing is so garbled there’s no real way of knowing what is going on, so we should not keep this hanging around any longer. Mccapra (talk) 02:34, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
