The company lacks notability under WP:NCORP. The best available source is this review from Common Sense Media. Otherwise coverage is promotional or otherwise unreliable, with the current sourcing being nearly 100% from the company itself (or the website of one of its products). Speaking of promotional, the current writing feels more like a product advertisement than an article and so even if it is notable, would recommend TNT or major rewrite to avoid this issue. As an alternative to deletion recommend redirecting to Richard Rusczyk which had been done but was reverted. Barkeep49 (talk) 23:57, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. The previous AfDs were twelve years ago, so availability of sourcing may be better now. There appears to be some nontrivial coverage in Baron, Kathryn (Fall 2019), "Serving the Math Whiz Kids: Private Enrichment Programs Step Up To Meet The Need", Education Next, 19 (4) and a short paragraph (maybe not enough depth to count for much) in McShane, Michael Q. (March 2023), Surveying Educational Entrepreneurs: The Headwinds and Tailwinds to Building New Educational Enterprises, EdChoice, at least. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:02, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    FWIW, I did find McShane and included it in my analysis above in terms of being insufficient for NCORP. I had not found Baron. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 02:46, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to the founder's article - he's clearly notable, and this is his vehicle, rather than being notable in itself. Llajwa (talk) 21:44, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This was a redirect to the Cornell radio station until Dalvago (a user with a conflict of interest) converted it into an article. The record label is quite simply not notable. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 23:32, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I gain absolutely nothing from this Wikipedia page being created. I never worked with the label, and even if I did/had, I would not gain a single dollar from it (the label is unpaid volunteer-run, as the article says). Just because you personally do not find it notable, does not mean it is not under Wikipedia standards. I have followed all notability and credibility guidelines and made sure of it.

Please refrain from this seemingly personal vendetta making you revert/delete every article and edit I make. Dalvago (talk) 23:57, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Dalvago Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I think the only edits I have made on any article that you have edited were both on Electric Buffalo Records, the first to restore the redirect and the second to start this deletion discussion when you reverted me. There is nothing personal in my actions. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 00:11, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Music, Companies, and New York. WCQuidditch 00:25, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. In WP:MUSIC's words, this is not an important indie label - one with "a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable". It has only one artist that seems to pass notability muster, and only after leaving the label. The article is sourced largely from social media sites, primary sources, and the Cornell Daily Sun, which is not independent; I'd change my vote if we found more sources from third-party media outlets outside of Ithaca, NY. Chubbles (talk) 15:05, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Chubbles I appreciate your feedback and the note from WP:Music, but what you are citing is actually referring to artist notability, not that of a record label. See the section you quoted here. The article does not give criteria for record labels, only for artists and ensembles.
    To your second point, The Cornell Daily Sun is actually fully independent from both Cornell and any student organization. (It quite literally says so right on their website homepage banner.) Plus, I didn't cite only the Cornell Daily Sun, I cited the Ithaca Times, and Ithaca Journal, as well as 14850.com. I agree that the label is not greatly notable outside of Tompkins County, but that is not criteria for not being deserving of coverage on Wikipedia.Dalvago (talk) 05:18, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I've argued in the past that WP:MUSIC have explicit criteria for labels, and they were almost implemented; I should probably resurrect that Titanic some time. In the absence of specific guidance, that current language is the best we have, and it also captures the spirit of why we'd ever want to cover a record label in the first place (if it doesn't release any noteworthy music, it's hard to argue that it deserves encyclopedic coverage). I see why you're making that argument about the Daily Sun, and I'm considering whether I'm unfairly judging it; it does seem to have a decidedly campus-based focus, and while Cornell certainly is a prestigious school, I don't know that any campus newspaper substantially demonstrates that campus-based news is noteworthy, because campus newspapers more or less exist to cover even the minutiae of quad life. I'd like to hear from other editors on the merits of that claim. So, the best argument I think you're making here is akin to WP:MUSIC bullet 7, that the label is a significant representative voice of the musical life of a city or region. The Ithaca Journal piece is a WP:MILL music listing, not a spotlight on an EBR artist or the label itself; I wouldn't count it as a substantial independent source. The 14850 one is closer, but that's really more about how about 50 local artists are on Bandcamp; i'm on the fence about that. The Ithaca Times piece is substantial, although it's honestly not very informative (the label was very new at the time and the interview gives a lot of boilerplate about artist success). I'm open to the idea of extending bullet 7 to labels, but I'm just not there with the sourcing I'm seeing, especially with essentially no notable artists (so far). Are there substantial pieces about local musicians signed to the label that indicate how it's changed the musical scene of upstate New York? If we can find those, you'll clear my WP:HEY standard.

Massive WP:CONTENTFORK from Siege of Gaza City. Article was previously merged into the siege of Gaza City article, with nearly the whole article (all 242 words) merged into the article. This merge was rapidly challenged by a user saying it is independently notable. My argument for merging was CONTENTFORK as well as how the siege of Azovstal steel plant during last year's Siege of Mariupol doesn't have a split article, why should a small siege amid the larger parent (consensus confirmed) notable topic of the Siege of Gaza City. Again, a CONTENTFORK of 242 words is what this siege article is. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 21:08, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Events, Military, Israel, and Palestine. WCQuidditch 22:12, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'd be inclined to 'Keep' the article but rename it. There doesn't seem a lot at the moment to warrant describing it as a siege within a siege, but the hospital is clearly a key focus of the IDF during this war. The Siege of Gaza City article seems to be in the form of a timeline, with spin-off articles about key events, of which Al-Shifa Hospital is becoming a major part. Sionk (talk) 22:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • keep To clarify, the blockade on Al-Shifa Hospital is distinct from the one imposed on the Gaza Strip. The Gaza Strip blockade entails restricting the entry of food, beverages, diesel, and petroleum derivatives throughout the military operation, while the blockade on Al-Shifa Hospital occurred after ground forces entered. It's essential to highlight that the siege on Al-Shifa Hospital commenced specifically on November 10, making it a singular and distinct event from the Gaza Strip blockade.--— Osama Eid (talk) 22:16, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as there isn't an issue with having a military operation within a military operation as an article, the hospital is very notable, and the content is well sourced and independently notable. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 23:22, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    I don't agree that this is such a case. Verifiable does not mean cited. Citations serve to verify that the information is verifiable, but verifiability of the information rests on the existence and availability of sources, not on the references themselves. The wild west days of Wikipedia are: There are no references + the content is NOT verifiable (could be subjective, could be made up, could be any kind of junk). This article was responsibly and neutrally written and prose is of reasonable quality. Important content points can easily be verified. I am now finding sources and adding citations to the article. —Alalch E. 11:42, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Pinging participants to respond to the WP:HEY initiative: @Tagishsimon, Hoary, Sionk, Oaktree b, and Atlantic306: Sources were found. They are in the article (not all contribute to notability but at multiple do) and some are mentioned in the above comments. Many previously unsourced claims can be verified via references now. Does this affect your recommendation in this AfD?—Alalch E. 21:51, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. It's much improved -- but still problematic. Sionk and (just a couple of minutes ago) I have removed a lot of "Where are they now?" chitchat; but above that the article still has such unreferenced material as The vocals are supported by Drew's lead guitar riffs, often evoking Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds comparisons and Kevin Jacoby's melodic bass lines, often in the style of Fleetwood Mac's John McVie. Patriarch Ken plays drums as well as adding vocals and guitar parts (often simultaneously). Ken is known for playing a bare-bones "street kit" that includes a Djembe as an all-purpose drum. -- Hoary (talk) 22:33, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep as the sources are paywalled and I don't have time to, um, use other methods to unpaywall them... WaPo is a solid source, usually. I'll put my money on that horse today as well. Oaktree b (talk) 22:41, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Wikipedia totally respects copyrights and using any sort of a ladder that's around 12 feet long, or look at today's archives, io, are not what we should be doing. Oaktree b (talk) 22:42, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as the article now has enough significant coverage in multiple reliable sources to pass WP:GNG in my view. Unreferenced material can be removed, also I don't see an issue in using archives otherwise it would only be the well off who edited wikipedia, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 23:38, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. This is a high-citation field and her high-citation publications are all with huge numbers of coauthors, so we don't have WP:PROF#C1. Only full-professor endowed professorships count for WP:PROF#C5, not her "Keith and Cecilia Terasaki Chair" for an assistant professor. And three of the four sources we have are non-independent, and don't provide evidence of passing WP:GNG rather than WP:PROF. That leaves only the possibility of WP:PROF#C2 through the Edward A. Bouchet Award [5]. The questions should be: is that award enough, by itself?

  • Comment In order to argue The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field we need independent and WP:RS to actually say so. I did not see any independent RS detailing her exact contribution to the experiment. The only independent source seems to [6] which seems reliable but on closer inspection just quotes a press release by UCLA which cannot be considered independent and talks about the 250 scientists involved. Another source [7] describes her as a "calibration operations coordinator". --hroest 20:56, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Not seeing notability under WP:PROF; I checked all the papers with >=50 citns on GS and they are all heavily multi-author. Agree the Edward A. Bouchet Award isn't the level of award that PROF covers. On GNG... The Black Voices in physics piece has enough editorial material to count to GNG. There is some indept coverage of her winning the Bouchet award; the Icimac & L'Economie articles (both in French) seem long enough for significant coverage but my French isn't good enough to be sure they aren't translated press releases. Additionally, via Proquest, AllAfrica.com has "Alvine Kamaha - Un brillant triomphe camerounais aux Etats-Unis de la physique moderne"; the other hits there seem to be verbatim press releases. Might be a case of too early career. Espresso Addict (talk) 04:47, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Poking around a bit more wrt the award, per Lajmmoore's comment below, it looks like it is less early career than I had thought based on our article on the APS awards. The other recipients I checked mostly seem to have been clearly notable under WP:PROF before receiving it. Happy to go with Keep based on that and meeting GNG with the sources I mention, plus the APS award bio [8] which describes her work on LUX-ZEPLIN as a "leading role". Espresso Addict (talk) 09:49, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I think there's just enough for GNG, but also I would dispute the point on the award - the APS (& the field it represents) is very large (50,000 members), so its logical there would be a range of awards proportionate to its scale, and I note the awards are both subject specific and more pastoral. Lajmmoore (talk) 23:52, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I added a note at Women in Red Lajmmoore (talk) 23:55, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Generally "more pastoral" awards do not confer notability under WP:PROF, imo at least ("a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level"; emphasis added) though obviously receiving them can lead to independent coverage meeting GNG. Espresso Addict (talk) 04:04, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The American Physical Society (APS Physics) confers the Edward A. Bouchet Award on some of the nation's outstanding physicists for their contribution to physics.[1] (I used 'pastoral' to describe other APS awards e.g. for leadership but I think that was the wrong term to use. This award is for ability and contribution. I assume it contributed to the notability of all these researchers: Anthony M. Johnson, Peter Delfyett, Joseph Johnson III, Michael Duryea Williams, Juan Maldacena, Sylvester James Gates, Oliver Keith Baker, Jorge Pullin, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, Herman Brenner White, Homer Neal, Alfred Msezane. Prescod-Weinstein is closest in age to Kamaha, and I'd argue that the fact Kamaha has been awarded such a prestigous award at such a young age adds to her notability, not detracts from it. I also reject the comment earlier in the discussion that the award doesn't contribute to notability because it doesn't have a Wikipedia page of its own. As we all know there is huge bias in the content on WP (which I know lots of people in this discussion are actively working to counter), so the fact that an award named after a black scientist hasn't been written by a predominately white editorship should be taken into consideration when assessing notability. Lajmmoore (talk) 09:17, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
My thoughts: if we have to struggle over whether or not a single award makes this person notable, they are not; thus the AfD. Yes, we make allowances for academics, but let's not reduce the value of those who actually unquestionably qualify per SNG. Atsme 💬 📧 15:13, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There's a general question as to whether subjects working in academia who don't meet WP:PROF should have an article; imo, if they meet another guideline (eg AUTHOR, GNG), failing PROF is not an obstacle. Espresso Addict (talk) 01:15, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect‎ to Westminster 2010: Declaration of Christian Conscience. There's a consensus that this declaration is not notable. Most of the keep !votes were flat assertions of importance or assertions of inherited notability, without reference to sources or notability guidelines, so I discarded those comments. Looking at the remaining comments, a supermajority of commenters found the sourcing inadequate to show notability.

I'm redirecting to Westminster 2010: Declaration of Christian Conscience to restore the status quo ante, and to keep the page history if people want to merge some content to Internet censorship or elsewhere as suggested.

  • Keep. The article is about a trend whereby platform administrators decide what counts as newsworthy and delete ideas and opinions that are deemed unworthy, unimportant or false based on their subjective opinion. This is what is happening here: an article is appointed for cancellation even though it had a list of notable signatories and have been covered by Western press. I wonder why this article in particular is singled out for deletion when much less notable declarations and less covered news or personalities warrant a page. --2A02:AB88:C88:B400:916:FA22:69F4:B450 (talk) 19:44, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The lack of coverage beyond the outlets that chose to essentially copy-and-paste what is written in the original means that the article unavoidably fails two of our three core content policies. One of which cannot be waived by consensus. The keep !votes focusing on WP:ITSIMPORTANT merely underscore this fact. Alpha3031 (tc) 14:42, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Original
  • I am distinctly unimpressed at the suggestion that having standards is equal to censorship (less than surprised, but) and very tempted to simply drop a WP:OMGWTFBBQ here and leave. (NOTNEWS! BREAKING? PRIMARY. NOTINHERITED! RGW) I will however point out that while it's no doubt very unfair, fundamentally Wikipedia's coverage is limited by the editorial choices of respected mainstream publications with, specifically, independent, secondary coverage required to assess relative weight. It is, in a word, if that it be divorced from its political connotations, a very conservative philosophy, in the sense of "adherence to the status quo"; and while we are permitted radical action in many respects (WP:BOLD, WP:IAR) the basis of our core content policies is not one of them. So:
    • Commenters wishing to decry the censorship taking in this very place are welcome to read the essay Wikipedia:Free speech and policy of Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not.
      • Wikipedia is not, for example, a journal club, or a place to discuss what we learnt in class today. That may well fall into the scope of another project, and "important background information" might be, if verifiably considered so by RS, included in the appropriate article. A sentence or so might even find its way (assuming due weight) onto a hypothetical article on the assertion of political bias in content moderation, or something similar (though while there is some volume of primary research on this topic, it is less clear that there are any systematic reviews of the available literature). That does not make the topic suitable for a standalone encyclopedic article. If your class reliably publishes content from those discussions, then we're talking. (Talking, in this case, does not imply automatic acceptance, but it does mean the start of an argument can be made)
      • Notability is not inherited from the identities of its signatories. An encyclopedia article needs to be beyond a list of the people who have signed something, republished something, or have associated themselves with something. I'm sure The Future of Free Speech is very notable, but them announcing some specific notable person signing and publishing nothing else, other than the original text (while presumably verifying that specific fact) does not let us write anything. Taibbi, Shellenberger might be themselves notable, but what is there to write? The Times and Die Welt would be fine if they actually wrote much beyond copying and pasting the original text of the declaration. They don't. What are we left with, opinion pieces?
  • Without something secondary we can state in wikivoice, we won't have an article here, we would have a collection of context-free information; and make no mistake, Considering the high profile of the signatories, media coverage on the declaration was noticeably low is not something we can state in wikivoice. No doubt it is very unfair for those being censored that we're not allowed to point out the WP:TRUTH that it is being suppressed here. Nor simply state the claims therein in wikivoice as fact. Without significant coverage in reliable, secondary, independent sources, there will not be an article because there cannot be an article. Delete. Alpha3031 (tc) 12:16, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • The declaration covers a significant matter with potentially large impact on most of the population. It was signed by a substantial number of some of the world's best known academics and intellectuals. And it had significant coverage by some major mainstream media companies, even though it had explicitly criticized them.

  • Crouch, Swale has a point about the redirect, and I agree with it. Being reported on by Michael Shellenberger and Matt Taibbi really doesn't count as independent sources, since they wrote the thing in the first place, which throws out 193.169.154.232's argument. To quote a public statement of another of its authors, Andrew Lowenthal: [...] Michael Shellenberger, Matt Taibbi, and myself in London in June this year (hence "Westminster"). It was that group that developed the declaration [...] So let's look to see if an article can be properly written.

    Of course this won't have hit the history books or the political science journals yet, but I checked anyway. There's nothing. So there are no high quality sources from political experts to be had. That leaves only one pool of possible sources: news reporting. Well, the search engines all give me articles that are all marked as the same number of days old. Unsurprisingly, all of the sources cited in the article are all the same date, too, give or take timezone differences. It's 1 news cycle, with many of the stories largely identical and not providing much in-depth analysis; and then nothing at all. I independently found the article by The Telegraph, for example, and 9 paragraphs were it just quoting the document wholesale unfiltered, with the remainder being paraphasing. This indicates that there isn't much in the way of reliable independent good quality sourcing to be had, and what there is isn't in-depth and hasn't been followed up on.

    This doesn't meet the notability bar.

    I think if there is a consensus that the 2023 one isn't notable then the redirect to the 2010 one should be restored and if deletion of the 2010 one is desired that one can be sent to AFD and this redirect then would be deleted as G8. If deletion of the redirect is then desired it can go to RFD or if disambiguation or retargeting is desired it can either be done boldly or through RFD. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:38, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - my guess is that it is WP:TOOSOON to determine if this is going to be a notable thing and we need to wait for the requisite independent reliable sources to cover it. It might take off or it might sink without trace - and it isn't our job to give it credibility or otherwise. JMWt (talk) 17:31, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep because it has been reported by Die Welt, the New York Post, and the Telegraph. That's clearly sufficient coverage in itself. Yes, it's recent, and no one ever knows whether recent events will have lasting impact, but there has never been any consensus for a moratorium on recent events, so we can't go guessing about this one, but must judge it only on its present coverage. If it turns out to be an irrelevant flash-in-the-pan in six months' time, we can always discuss deletion again. Elemimele (talk) 17:49, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • The Telegraph is such a piss-poor source that it doesn't even tell us who wrote the document. I had to do primary research to find that out. The Telegraph also spends 3 paragraphs not even discussing the subject at all, but talking about itself and its prior reporting on something else, in addition to the paraphrasing and 9 paragraphs of outright bulk-quoting the document.

  • So many sources covering issues highlighted in the Westminster Declaration are appearing at Substack.

      • I certainly know that one cannot use Substack in articles , but this is a discussion about the deletion of the article.

        • Kmccook, are you saying you want to write an article on the general topic? I don't think my approval (or lack thereof) of a politician would change the fact that that report does not mention the subject of this article (as far as I can tell) a single time. I was also aware that the substack article was non-independent, I just didn't feel the need to bring it up. You are correct that this is a discussion relates to the deletion of this article. For more information on the process, you may find the Wikipedia:Deletion policy. Typical format is around whether there are enough independent reliable sources writing things in their own words, so that we can write an article based on those words instead of our own interpretations.

            • Kathleen, we don't write articles for things because they're "meaningful", we do so where, among other things, it's possible to write something not in violation of our content policies. Which, for one, does not allow Wikipedia editors to make stuff up wholesale based on their own interpretation of events (WP:Original research) nor base an entire article on primary sources (same policy, also violates the other two if the primary sources are non-independent) which includes "this is a thing that happened, now here is a copy-paste/translation of some stuff from it" and not much beyond that. If you want to write about things because they're meaningful, the place to do that is your blog, a peer-reviewed journal, some kind of opinion column or some other article with a publisher of primary or secondary works. Or a book or something. If you do it through a reputable publisher, we could possibly even use it as one of the sources. But: no suitable sources to write an encyclopedia article from, no encyclopedia article. Alpha3031 (tc) 02:15, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Is there another related article that can be used as a merge target?
    I've come across several reliable sources discussing the topic of the declaration, addressing the balance between protecting free speech and combating disinformation (https://reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/news/how-respond-disinformation-while-protecting-free-speech, https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/09/business/free-speech-social-media-lawsuit.html etc), but nothing that would discuss the declaration itself in depth.
    There's definitely an overlap with Internet censorship, but it seems that the topic of free speech vs misinformation has gained notability on it's own. PaulT2022 (talk) 12:55, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Hmm, actually, what about deplatforming as the hypothetical target? Alpha3031 (tc) 13:48, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    This is better, although deplatforming isn't always related to disinformation. I was thinking of something like Disinformation and freedom of speech ideally. (Google Scholar)
    The topic seems to be discussed at Freedom of speech#Relationship with disinformation, but I couldn't find anything else. PaulT2022 (talk) 14:41, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The Westminster Declaration goes way beyond internet censorship. It also covers classical media and government politics. Also, deplatforming is only one tiny little aspect of the declaration's message. Certainly, freedom of speech is a main aspect, but then, attempts to prohibit decrypted private communication is not covered. Keeping the declaration in its own article is by far the best option. --Geek3 (talk) 18:36, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It's also not an actual option because of WP:NOR and WP:NOT. As a fairly experienced editor, you should be well aware of the content policies. (There really isn't anything to merge IMO, beyond a bare mention) Alpha3031 (tc) 06:49, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, I am well aware of the content policies, and I read and understand your points. We need to have standards, and I don't see that as an act of censorship. My prior judgement is already based on Wikipedia's notability guidelines, aware of WP:NOR and WP:NOT, and by that I still see the topic clearly notable for a standalone article. And sure, we shall also discuss and further improve the article's content by these guidelines. --Geek3 (talk) 17:20, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Geek3, if it's so clearly notable then you should have no problem presenting some secondary sources that address the article subject directly and in-detail, in their own words independent of the subject then. Or, since you know of OR, let's hypothetically remove every single sentence based only on primary sources or not based on any sources at all. You can tell me what's left. Alpha3031 (tc) 13:02, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Absolutely. The article already cites a bunch of large-media sources which report specifically on the declaration, not just mentioning it as a side-note. There were numerous reportings in classical and other media such as blogs and public radio, even outside the English-speaking world (e.g. [9]). An example of a critical in-depth discussion (although in a non-citable biased source) is named below by Cielquiparle. And for the direct quote, the best source is the official declaration itself. --Geek3 (talk) 13:53, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Actually, it does not have to be "the main topic" as per WP:SIGCOV, but it should address the topic "in detail". I can read only what New York Post wrote (as other two sources require subscription), but it seems that it is mainly paraphrasing the text and listing the signatories, and the article in question does the same. Hence it's basically just another "news" event report. Maybe, the declaration would eventually produce some real-world effects, but it is too soon to tell. Currently, the topic seems to be more suitable for Wikinews and maybe for Wikisource (as the declaration has a CC-license). Kammerer55 (talk) 21:47, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence to suggest such a neighbourhood or suburb going by this name actually exists. It appears to be a name given to an area by someone but this has no sourcing or any other verification to support such a neighbourhood or suburb actually existing.

  • Well this makes a change from the GNIS mess. Interestingly, this is on the Ordnance Survey maps at exactly the coördinates that GeoHack passes through. It's in the same typeface as Clapham and a larger typeface than Clapham Common (which is not Clapham Common), whatever that signifies. (Mangoe?) So it does exist, at least. It's going to be difficult to find history with a word like that, though. Hmmm. Victoria History, maybe. Uncle G (talk) 18:24, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • And indeed Victoria History it was. Uncle G (talk) 18:58, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, or merge with Worthing. It really does exist, even if you want to ignore the Commons photos of it, or its name on the OS map. It was not big enough to be notable in the 19th century, because Worthing was still small, and not yet the town that it is today (so no mention in VCH), but there may well be mentions of it in 20th/21st-century newspapers, whose archives are not yet online. So this one is a waiting game, with no improvement to WP if its existing information and links were deleted. Whatever we do, we should keep the location, information, details and links.

    That says "coates" and is next to a place called "holt". Does this place actually exist today, or is this singular map actually authoritative and where is the rest of the sourcing for this place to exist? I understand a map is great but is is accurate?

  • Comment (prompted partly by local knowledge) I will leave it to those familiar with the nuances of Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features)#Settlements and administrative regions to make the final decision on this, but I can offer the following:
    • As per the Victoria County History sources added by Uncle G, Cote was historically a hamlet within the parish of Durrington; if "Merge" is the outcome, the Durrington article should be the destination.
    • Care should be taken not to confuse it with the nearby village of Coates, West Sussex.
    • It was sometimes known as "Walcote" in the medieval period (see VCH reference): this may assist with source-finding.
    • The 1898 OS map shows its extent and its relationship to Durrington parish. The number of buildings has not really changed since then.
    • I have thoroughly reviewed all my Sussex and Worthing book sources: 10 Worthing-specific books and about 25 Sussex-related including the likes of Lucas's Highways and Byways of Sussex, the West Sussex Village Book, An Historical Atlas of Sussex, Worthing − From Saxon Settlement to Seaside Town, Worthing − Aspects of Change, Church and Parish of Durrington and Millennium Encyclopaedia of Worthing History, each of which is very comprehensive. Sadly there is very little indeed. Millennium Encyclopaedia of Worthing History states (in the "Place Names" section, p111) "Cote (or Walcote): Home of William de la Cote c1266 or atte Cote 1296". An Historical Atlas of Sussex notes in passing (p32) the placename element "cote" without referring to this Cote specifically. The 65-page Church and Parish of Durrington, a comprehensive parish history since Domesday, mentions nothing; nor do any of the others.

      • Have a look for the flint pits. I haven't yet found a good source for the flint pit excavation at Cotes Bottom, just hints. I'm working from zero knowledge of any of this, by the way. I keep checking the Ordnance Survey map to ensure that what I'm turning up in the histories is the right place. ☺ Uncle G (talk) 20:43, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
        • Worthing − From Saxon Settlement to Seaside Town has quite a lot of detail (pp8–10) about the flint mines in the area, but Cote is not mentioned. Representative quote: Flint mining clearly became an integral part of the activities of these early farming communities. The flint mines at Church Hill (Findon), Blackpatch, Harrow Hill and Cissbury, estimated to have been in existence prior to 3700 BC, are among the earliest in Britain. An extract from the Yeakell and Gardner map you have cited in the article is also shown, although only a section east of Cote. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 21:02, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
          • I have passing mentions of "Gaster's Pit 17, Cote Bottom, Durrington, Sussex" and there's obviously a archaeological/geological report out there somewhere to be had. Uncle G (talk) 21:24, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, another non-notable businessman who became CEO of his family's company, with a hefty PR budget. No indication of notability for the awards received; any coverage I could find in nominally RS is plainly paid placement/paid contributor stuff.
Draft:Mohsin Hani Al Bahrani has an interesting edit history. SPA creator had it undeleted a day after its soft deletion in the first AFD. They added two more paid placement references, and left it for three days, so it was moved to draft. Cue more IPs from India piling in direct and via proxy to REFBOMB it with more junk references. A month later, creator tagged it db-author, and it was deleted again, even though a second account and several IPs had made heavy contributions. resubmitted, and it was declined. Creator then tries their luck with Mohsin Al-Bahrani and Mohsin Al Bahrani, both speedied G11. Fast-forward a year, and draft undeleted again. Paid placement junk gets stripped out by Kuru [10]. Some months go by, and the junk references are all added right back, and the draft is resubmitted. And declined.
A parallel effort at Draft:Mohsin Hani Al-Bahrani is first speedied G3 as a hoax, creator User:Theporphyrymaster. It's then recreated by User:Mohsinhani, declined, and G7'd again. Another attempt gets copypasted by some account to Mohsin Hani Al-Bahrani, prodded, histmerged, moved back to Draft:Mohsin Hani Al-Bahrani, G13'd. I'm probably missing a few variant spellings.
Our current creator then pastes this draft yesterday to Mohsin Al-Bahrani. I moved it to the WP:COMMONNAME. And here we are.
They're actually not quite a SPA, as in October they had a brief side gig in spamming for keralahairtransplant.com.

    I also like the suggestion from Hassocks, though that would be a different page with a different name, and should have no impact on this AfD. What we are considering here is if this List of pubs in Sheffield, which has been problematic from inception in 2005, meets our inclusion criteria. What Hassocks is suggesting is creating an article on Pubs in Sheffield, which will be an article rather than a list, so will have a different focus, and a different structure. On looking back at the article history, I note that the list has been nominated for deletion soon after creation - the discussion closed as no consensus. Interesting to note that the keep comments centred on improving the article. The problem with "keep and clean up", is that the clean up is rarely done - here we are 18 years later, and despite people putting on tags saying they are concerned about the article, nobody has actually cleaned it up. We have nothing worthwhile to keep. Not the name, not the concept, not the layout, not the contents. The contents are a random selection of pubs, some of which no longer exist. It only lists three pubs in Hillsborough (S6 postcode), while the more useful Sheffield Pub Guide lists 18, and the comprehensive WhatPub lists 26.

  • Comment. Deprodded this hoping a discussion would come up with some ideas on how to better present the material, much of which is unsourced. There are books on Sheffield pubs so it likely is a valid topic for the encyclopedia. A list format could work but it would need its inclusion criteria defining more strictly than this article does.

  • Question: @W.G.J., why would a UK high commissioner be notable when regular ambassadors are not? Isn't a high commissioner essentially just an ambassador to a Commonwealth country? Our High commissioner (Commonwealth) article says:
    • "In the Commonwealth of Nations, a high commissioner is the senior diplomat, generally ranking as an ambassador, in charge of the diplomatic mission of one Commonwealth government to another."
Does this mean the high commissioner to Ghana is more notable than ambassadors to America, France, Germany, Spain, Russia, China, etc.?

No, my bad. I wrongfully interpreted "ambassador" in the original nomination as "diplomat", a member of a diplomatic envoy that is not by default the highest-ranking.

I redirected this to Last will and testament of Adolf Hitler, but was reverted by the article creator because (like they said on my user talk page) "The Position still held power and was extremely important within Germany". In reality, the position was nominally held by one person, had no influence whatsoever, and more importantly as a consequence isn't notable enough to warrant a separate page. Fram (talk) 13:20, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The position was quite literally able to appoint the highest position within the Reich, a Reichsleiter. The position still operated within it's capacity officially in stead of Hitler, as Goerring and Himmler were both declared traitors. Kecesi (talk) 13:26, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Furthermore, the page you redirected to had no information what so ever of the Party Minister position, to people who don't know the history of the Third Reich the position may be insignificant but it operated as essentially Fuhrer after Hitler's Death. Kecesi (talk) 13:30, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The position also appointed Gauleiters which were the Party leaders for designated Regions who also held authority over their own individual Volksstrum units. Kecesi (talk) 13:37, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
One last note Anwärter has it's own Wikipedia Page, there's a clear precedent set that a position that held the power to appoint a Reichsleiter, a position that only answers to the Fuhrer is relevant. Kecesi (talk) 20:28, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect per nominee for the reasons stated. I understand the importance of the position but just one person held it.
--A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 03:32, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sure however, this was towards the end of the war and it held power over all the Gauleiters which also held power over their individual volksstrum units, not to mention this fed into the late war Himmler x Bormann Power Struggle. Kecesi (talk) 14:48, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect, per nom. Also, agree not notable enough for a stand alone article, which in a practical sense would never be more than a stub, at best. Kierzek (talk) 04:15, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    You can say that and I respect it however, this just leads me to believe that you're ignoring the late war contributions as it still held power over all the Volksstrum, acted as de-facto Fuhrer and could appoint and remove Reichsleiters essentially giving the position Fuhrer-prinzip which was excersized. Kecesi (talk) 14:50, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It's also received independent coverage than from Hitler's Testament and hence my belief. Kecesi (talk) 14:54, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    There's also transcripts of how it influenced the Volksstrum. Kecesi (talk) 14:58, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Kecesi, I think the difference between your point of view and others’ here is summed up in the pronouns “it” and “he”. You see “it”, we see “him”.
    A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 15:06, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Various Positions which were only held by one person have their own Wikipedia pages, there's a clear precedent that positions will extremely high amounts of power and importance even if held by one person can have their own article with relevant information Kecesi (talk) 15:19, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Mind you this is a Minister Position WITH Portfolio as well, we cover the Reich Forest Master Position and it has it's own Article I don't see how this is relevant. Kecesi (talk) 15:27, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Seems like the Article was Reviewed does this mean it's suitable for Inclusion like Wikipedia states? Articles considered suitable for inclusion are marked as 'reviewed'? My apologies I'm a little confused. Kecesi (talk) 16:14, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, when an article is nominated for deletion (at AfD, like here), it gets automatically tagged as "reviewed": other reviewers don't need to check it, as it is already at a community discussion which will decide if it can stay or not (or gets redirected). Fram (talk) 16:19, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thanks. Kecesi (talk) 16:27, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect: The power that this ministerial position had was largely hypothetical, and power alone doesn't infer notability. Unless this has received independent coverage from Hitler's testament, redirect there.
  • Redirect: Agree with all of above, no value add with this page. Marleeashton (talk) 04:22, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The Powers of the Position will be further clarified, the Roll it played towards the end of the War is clarified as well. I simply don't believe you've read the articles you want to redirect to. Kecesi (talk) 17:20, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect per nom and others. The position was more an expression of Hitler's final delusions than an actual, functional office. Intothatdarkness 15:41, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd understand this if it held no power but for quite a bit of time it still acted to appoint Gauleiters and Reichsleiters not to mention that Gauleiters held immense control over their Volksstrum units. Kecesi (talk) 23:39, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Except there is no indication that such appointments by Bormann took place. Curbon7 (talk) 00:05, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Exactly. There's no indication any of this existed anywhere other than in Hitler's mind. Considering this was signed in 29 April and Doenitz ordered military operations to cease on 7 May (and Bormann was likely killed on 2 May trying to flee the bunker/Berlin), any power this position might have exerted existed for no more than 8 days (more likely three or four at most given Bormann's demise). Intothatdarkness 00:44, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    There is documentation of the Powers for the Parteiminister, not to mention the fact that the Ministerial Portfolio was quite literally the Party. Kecesi (talk) 17:14, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article doesn't contain sources (as of November 2023) to meet the notability guideline for music. While MusicBrainz does contain information about the album, it is a database, usually referred to as not resulting in notability, and MusicBrainz shows up only in the authority control list.

Redirect to Neo (Hungarian band): The only mention in coverage I found which might be of value is this brief Hungarian-language piece, though I only question its potential because I don't know the language and couldn't tell you if this is just a passing mention or not without a translation.

Recently created as a set index article, but only the first two (on second look, Spermatheca is a receptacle, not a sac) can really be described as such. The other items either don't describe a "sac" at all or are simply glands, some of which are somewhat childish references, not backed up by any formal or common nomenclature. Any ambiguity can be handled with a hatnote or see also entry. Polyamorph (talk) 06:05, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Biology and Lists. WCQuidditch 06:42, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep "somewhat childish" in referring to medical websites using vernacular language to interact with patients is a rather worrying form of denigration and elitism. Even if it were actual children's speech, children do use Wikipedia, so a children's language terminology would also be expected to be usable as search terms. "Sperm sac" can refer to whatever the people in the real world at large wish to call it as such. A reservoir would easily be a sac, and the other entries reservoirs. Fluid-filled cysts and vesicles are certainly "sacs". And whether informal culinary language [17][18] for milt is childish or not, it is used for addressing adults. Our article at milt calls it "sperm sacs" or "testes", which is the culinary usage. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 21:32, 28 October 2023
    • Spermatophore is a capsule of spermatozoa, which could be described as a 'sac' filled with sperm.
    • Spermatheca is a receptacle, not referred to as a 'sac' in scientific or common vernacular.
    • Milt generally refers to the seminal fluid itself, although it could refer also to the fish genitalia. Our article does not refer to this as a 'sac', although I acknowledge some sources do refer to them as such.
    • Epididymis is a tube.
    • Seminal vesicle, a gland not a sac.
    • Testes are organs, not sacs.
    • Scrotum contains the testes, it's not a bag of sperm!
    The last few are where my childish comment originates, it is not elitism, it's just not the scientific or common vernacular that is commonly used to describe these biological entities. It would be inaccurate to describe several of them as a 'sac' and for those that are 'sacs' the specific term 'sperm sac' is not an accurate description. Polyamorph (talk) 05:02, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    "sperm sac" is also only used in the milt article, where it mentions that the testes are the sperm sacs, and not the first two articles, where the term does not appear. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 09:15, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Which somewhat illustrates my point that this disambiguation page is not necessary. Polyamorph (talk) 09:06, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Or rather illustrates that without this page, people will not find the articles that contain the content they are looking for, especially, those looking up information on their medical issues. Or the people wishing to explore the first two topics on the page. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 03:24, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    No, we don't redirect from every conceivable term someone might use for something if that term is not mentioned at the target page. Polyamorph (talk) 00:25, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The use of "sperm sac" to refer to such is referenced in the page in question. A tube can be sac like, just as a river becomes a lake before being a river again, where the tube becomes enlarged into a bulge. The stomach is a sac, is used like a sac as a water bottle when removed and processed, but is also a tube, as material flows from one end to the other. The storage area for matured and maturing sperm is called the sperm sac, before ejaculation, as indicated, since it is a storage, as such, like a sac. Organs and glands can store what they produce before being discharged, such as with the semen vesicles; such as with testicles, when they are engorged as in milt. Storage areas themselves are sometimes referred to as sacs. It is elitist to not acknowledge the common people and their usage of language, not the prescriptivist usage of the word "sac". Many things in the world are like that, where the specific grammarian use isn't what people actually use it for. A distended epididymis, the spermatocele, is more sac like, as it is a bulge in the tube. As medical material for the public describe such parts of the body and conditions as sperm sacs, then people would look on Wikipedia for such as well. The scrotum does contain stored sperm, and is referred to as a sperm-sac in vulgar speech, per the reference. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 01:34, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Delete. Per WP:R#DELETE condition #8. This could serve to be useful as an actual disambiguation page given the usage of "sperm sac" in some vernaculars as other users have noted, though it would need significant clean-up to fall more in line with MOS:DAB. -KJGinger (talk) 18:00, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Your account is younger than this AfD page, were you previously an IP editor because you appear to be fairly well versed in aspects of wikipedia users usually take longer to get to grips with. In any case, can you be more specific about what "clean-up" needs to be done? Some of the entries are not appropriate and should be deleted entirely. In particular, if the term is not used in the target article then they shouldn't really be linked without strong evidence that it is common terminology. Polyamorph (talk) 19:42, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Lol, while I appreciate the suspicion, I'd never made any edits before this account, I just take well to how Wiki defines/gives context to its rules I guess. As to being more specific about the cleanup, the descriptions are probably most egregious. They largely seem to attempt to say sperm and sac as frequently as possible, and I agree with a point you made earlier in the discussion that they're childish. As an example, "Spermatheca" should probably read something more like "female reproductive organ found primarily in insects". RE: your last sentence, I was not aware of this policy, but if it's the case, then I'd agree there's less reason to keep this. KJGinger (talk) 21:52, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks, re: your last commemt. It's point #8 in WP:R#DELETE, although that refers to redirects.

This article is REFBOMBed, but lacks actual notability. The only non-trivial coverage seems to be the website of the organization that owns the locomotive - and even that only amounts to a paragraph. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 06:24, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]


Source assessment table: prepared by User:Pi.1415926535
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
https://www.ncry.org/about/collection/diesel/southern-pacific-5472/ No The organization owns the locomotive Yes ~ The source discusses the subject directly, but not in great detail (one table and one bullet list) No

https://books.google.com/books?id=7YqeCim1yegC&dq=Southern+Pacific+5472&pg=PA72#v=onepage&q=Southern%20Pacific%205472&f=false Yes Yes No Two sentences No
Diesel Era November/December 1996 Yes Yes ? Does not appear to be online. The article was 13 pages about the locomotive class in general (500 locomotives); it's not clear how much detail about this specific locomotive is included. ? Unknown
https://books.google.com/books?id=JbG3AAAAIAAJ&q=Southern+Pacific+SD9+5472 Yes Yes No Brief mention No
SP 1987/88 Motive Power Pictorial Yes ? Per [19], Shine is the owner/operator of the press, so this is a self-published source. No A few sentences No

  • Merge (partial) to Niles Canyon Railway with salient points re: construction/ownership Djflem (talk) 06:49, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • As I stated when declining this at AfC in September, there really hasn't been any demonstration of notability. The Diesel Era source is the only one that might give points towards GNG, but considering it was about the entire class of hundreds of locomotives, I strongly doubt we have any credit towards GNG here. As such, I am a delete. I would not object to a redirect to Niles Canyon Railway. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 13:57, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This article has very little information, is based mostly on subjective opinion, and is on a topic that is not notable. WP:NRV WP:GNG Joseph Zadeh (talk) 04:09, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Smerge to Criticism of SUVs is what I would suggest. Recent articles in places like The Guardian make this a plausible search term.—S Marshall T/C 09:13, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The article needs to be expanded, but this is a growing phenomenon and the discussion is reaching new parts of the globe. --DaddyCell (talk) 12:53, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Criticism of SUVs. This isn't really it's own thing. The growing phenomenon is just that there are more SUVs and SUVs are bad, which is already covered. No need for a separtate article here. Reywas92Talk
  • Keep - Seems to meet the WP:GNG. The article seems to be referring to a broader phenomenon affecting the entire automobile market and not just SUVs. High WP:POTENTIAL for this article to be expanded over time if sources keep covering the subject in the way that they have been. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 12:10, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Maybe Criticism of SUVs needs to be reworked; almost everything in the article applies to pick-up trucks or the market as a whole as well. I just do not see this as a really separate topic and should be integrated into the main article explaining how the criticisms are becoming more relevant and how the criticisms are being addressed; it could be split if necessary but I don't think leaving this stub on a neologism for hypothetical expansion is appropriate.

  • Keep. This could use a move to a less interesting title, but the trend towards bigger cars a notable-enough phenomenon to warrant coverage in secondary sources about energy efficiency in general, e.g. this one from the IEA.

  • Keep. It's extremely widely cited and well respected for accurate and unbiased news about the charitable sector. As DGG said in the previous AFD six years ago, "major resource in its field. It is difficult to use the GNG for periodicals or serious websites." And as Arxiloxos said, "As its steady citation by other reliable sources shows, this has become a significant source for the charitable sector, and thus passes criteria #3, #4 and #5 of Wikipedia:Notability (media)#Newspapers, magazines and journals." -- Softlavender (talk) 05:21, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not a single independent reliable source cited in 12 years. (And the deleted revisions turn out to be company promotional blurb written in the first person.)

Back in 2015, an article on EyeWiki was merged to List of medical wikis for lack of notability. Recently the redirect has been overwritten with a new article, but this new article does not show that EyeWiki passes either WP:GNG or WP:NWEB. The article currently cites 5 sources - 1, 4, and 5 are all to EyeWiki itself. Cite 3 is to one of EyeWiki's parent organizations. Cite 2 was written by EyeWiki's deputy editor in chief. I have done some searches and only turned up trivial mentions aside from these. Note that these searches are fairly difficult because many hits will be citations to copies of documents hosted on EyeWiki. Since there is no established notability here, I think this should probably be turned back into a redirect. I'm starting this AFD rather than boldly redirecting based on a rocky user talk page discussion I had with the new article's author that leads me to expect that would meet with opposition - so community consensus should be sought here.

  • I find myself in the same boat as MrOllie. There are no independent sources. Whilst Virtual Mentor (as was) is peer-reviewed, the byline of that article outright tells us that the author was (at the time) EyeWiki's deputy editor in chief. I've looked for others and — likewise — I too cannot find things independently documenting EyeWiki, only places where people cite articles on EyeWiki. The articles pointed at by Oaktree b have general conclusions and don't say much about any of the individual WWW sites, and if we were applying Project:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) we'd have to (ironically) point out that both were single case reports using one single article from each WWW site: low on the reliability scale. The irony is that EyeWiki probably qualifies as a source worth considering, with identifiable authors with identifiable credentials writing in their fields of expertise, but it doesn't qualify for an article because no-one apart from the people involved have documented the project itself. I cannot find anything to satisfy the criterion of multiple non-trivial good sources that are independent of the subject, which is older than EyeWiki is. ☺ Uncle G (talk) 21:26, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

      It's an archive of multiple short articles. I believe you should have access to this article via WP:TWL. Here's the most relevant bits:

      Local ophthalmologist Dr. J. Louis Pecora, MD, Clinical Associate Professor (Retired) of Ophthalmology at Syracuse's State University of New York Upstate Medical Center, published a 10-year survey through a collaboration with EyeWiki. The survey investigates relationships between age, activity, blood sugar and medication habits, as they relate to the occurrence of eye hemmorrhage. Dr. Pecora has long practiced opthalmology here in the Southern Tier -- he's now in his fifth decade.

      EyeWiki is an ophthalmic wiki where ophthalmologists, non-ophth physicians, patients and the public can view an eye encyclopedia written by ophthalmologists, one that covers the vast spectrum of eye disease, diagnosis, and treatment. The wiki is a collaboration between the American Academy of Ophthalmology and 16 other leading American and international eye-health societies.

  • Restore redirect The "Google Trends" argument is irrelevant, the sourcing just isn't substantial enough to warrant a whole page, and unlike the case of academic journals, there's no selective index for websites along the lines of Scopus. Not everyone would endorse the argument that being included in a selective index means that a publication is significant enough that we ought to cover it, but here, the argument can't even be made in the first place. This is a typical example of a topic best covered in an article with a more broad scope. XOR'easter (talk) 15:21, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Restore redirect for lack of the in-depth independent coverage needed by WP:GNG. We have a problem also typical in academic journals, that the people who write about these things are typically not people independent from the subject and do not publish them in venues independent from the subject. The two most in-depth sources are not independent: "EyeWiki, Do You Wiki?" is in a magazine published by the sponsoring organization, and "The EyeWiki Initiative" is written by someone who is listed as deputy editor-in-chief (also maybe one of the founders) of EyeWiki. That leaves only the AAPOS source, which I don't think is in-depth enough to support an article by itself. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:36, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment @David Eppstein: I am a bit unclear how edited volumes should count towards WP:NAUTHOR since that clearly doesnt seem to be the spirit of the guidelines. In most fields I am aware of, the editor of a book (and I have seen this process from the inside) selects multiple people to contribute and usually contributes a single chapter to the book themselves, which is generally as long as a single journal article. Therefore editing a book is very different from writing a book since editing one basically involves the conceptual work of identifying a theme but letting people express their own thoughts (usually there is very little editorial input on the text itself and the main contribution is selecting the contribution and contributing author to cover a topic in breadth and depth). Still, I would argue that the contribution for an edited volume is a bit more than a journal article but nowhere near comparable to a original book. I am therefore somewhat skeptical in "bending" the NAUTHOR rules to apply to editors of books. Yes, being asked to edit a book can be a sign of distinction but not a very strong signal, especially given the large number of books being published. --hroest 13:58, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The user "Amigao" has been publicly flagged as editing Wikipedia entries with an anti-China bias at an industrial scale. Although the complaints were not made by the best reputable sources, the description is worth considering.
The contributions by "Amigao" are enormous - the user edits tons of stuff on a daily basis! So is that a shared account, which violates Wikipedia rules? You can also look at the talk page of "Amigao", which lists many well-established grievances against the user. Therefore it's no surprise that "Amigao" initiates a deletion of a Wikipedia entry that doesn't reflect badly on China. 74.211.96.51 (talk) 10:30, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: agree with David Eppstein comments above. I think the sources in the article (eg: Book reviews [25], [26]) put this past the finish line. In addition no one has indicated they did a search for non-English sources for reviews of their work as brought up by Espresso Addict. Looking at the article, everything seems sourced reasonably for a BLP.

Same sourcing concerns as the prior AfD, no indication he meets N:MUSIC Star Mississippi 00:38, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • The last discussion was mostly about one bad source, and there was a lack of sources (a year and half ago). Consensus was "neither the quality nor the quantity are sufficient". There were just two WP:RS, now it's nine, the article is sourced a lot better, and we have reliable sources to choose from, which I mentioned below.

References 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 are WP:RS from WP:A/S list. Let's choose the best WP:THREE and estimate them.

Let's take a look at these three for example:

14 from The Source: 8 paragraphs article, seven of them are in-depth review of a specific composition (Sunswept). Sha be Allah talks about rhythmic structure, using silence as a spesific technique, about weaknesses such as synth choise and melodies. Pretty solid review.

15 from MusicTimes: 9 paragraphs reviewing the composition (Sunswept). Here as well, we can see full detailed review of this track. David Thompson talks about harmonic progression, rhythmic elements, potential areas of improvement such as adding more levels of instrumentation or experimental elements to make it more unique, or about using space and synths between each other, vocals and etc.

12 from AllHipHop: Here we can see not only giving a closer look, but a critical look at another composition (Fortuna). We can see suggestions for improvement such as repetitive bass, layering and etc. We can pay attention to the editorial comments like "the structure of the track does not quite fit the typical radio format, mainly due to its lengthy intro", about layering again and etc.

WP:MUSICBIO says, that "Notability is not determined by what the article says, it is determined by how well the article does or does not support the things it says by referencing them to independent verification in reliable sources.". If these three WP:RS convinced you, then this article belongs wikipedia. Roxy177 (talk) 05:00, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have serious doubts over the legitimacy of some of these reviews. Sha be Allah (ref #14) previously published another "review" of Pyti's music [27], which turned out to be plagiarized from several other sources (see previous AfD). The other sources are not without issues either.-KH-1 (talk) 02:16, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Would you be so kind as to reconsider new sources, please? Because, what if your "doubts" are wrong? I personally always try to rely on facts. That's why I metnioned above all new reviews from WP:RS list that have been presented since the previous AfD. (I just analyzed three, which are quite in-depth reviews, there are seven new different reviews from WP:RS in total). And deleting only based on a previous AfD is kind of unfair. Roxy177 (talk) 17:17, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, that's... fishy. I'm going to strike my !keep as I no longer have confidence in it, but I can't say I endorse !delete here either. What's going on with the other sources? microbiologyMarcus (petri dishgrowths) 19:03, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Stuck on this. I have to say, I think the thrust of the argument for N on the article page itself is two sentences at the end of the biography section. Sha be Allah wrote 3 of the 9 citations in that section (as an aside, raising some red flags for wikipuffery or overcitation). @Roxy177: you keep citing WP:RS but the only claim to WP:N isn't WP:V if it has been established previously by consensus that the author for one-third of that part of the article isn't reliable, despite the writing appearing in an outlet that has been described as generally reliable, then I think N fails. microbiologyMarcus (petri dishgrowths) 19:27, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@MicrobiologyMarcus: The previous consensus was that just one article is unreliable. (not 3 of the 9, neither that the author nor the source are no longer reliable) My point is that the new reviews from Sha be Allah deserve attention and trust, because they are different. (for example ref #14 I mentioned is exactly a serious review) This is a specific review of a specific composition, meticulous, without general phrases and fluff. Sigcov? Besides, there are 6 more sources left. Roxy177 (talk) 21:21, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Just rewatched sources and the article itself again and I'm going to say that my !vote is still !keep. Because as far as those sources are concerned, they are independent and reliable. they all together seem fit, alongside with the analysis of the sources (per WP:THREE) that I have done above.

If we don't consider a bad source from previous AfD, subject's notability will not be greatly lost from this, this is the point (we can check that by simply removing the sentence "Sha Be Allah from The Source compared Pyti's work to artists such as AVICII, Juice WRLD, and Diplo", which this particular source is supporting). There are still different reviews of different subject's works in various reliable sources. Roxy177 (talk) 05:27, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep there are several sources that seem good enough to meet notability, including The Source, Music Times and AllHipHop. He has 2 or 3 articles in each, but per the rules the duplicate publications should count as one, but I feel there is still enough to meet WP:MUSICBIO.Royal88888 (talk) 01:53, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: A formal source analysis would be useful here. And stating that sources are "likely pay-for-play" is less than certain, it sounds like a suspicion rather than evidence that should determine whether or not an article should be deleted. If sources, currently or found during this discussion, fulfill Wikipedia's guideline on music sources, that should be sufficient.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 00:35, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that saying "likely pay-for-play" without providing reasoning or assertion how they decided this to be the case, should not be a valid reason that they are Pay-for-play. In my opinion, the following articles are the best ones
- The source: Review of Pyti, Focus & Fortuna, Deep dive into...
- AllHipHop: A look into Pytis Latest 5 Singles, Focus review, Fortuna
- Music times: Dubstep, Sunswept Royal88888 (talk) 03:04, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've just done a formal source analysis. The following sources are independent and reliable (see WP:A/S). And as for coverage, let's take a look:
[28] - 12 paragraphs in total, 2-3 paragraphs for each of several songs.
[29] - 7 paragraphs dedicated to a specific song (Focus), talking about notable techniques, rhythmic challenges, layering and distorted sound effects.
[30] - 8 paragraphs article, seven of them are really in-depth review of a specific composition (Sunswept). talking about rhythmic structure, verses, drops, outro. Almost every paragraph contains compostion's weaknesses. Pretty solid review.
[31] - 9 paragraphs reviewing the composition (Sunswept). talking about harmonic progression, rhythmic elements, potential areas of improvement such as adding more levels of instrumentation or experimental elements, or about using synths and space between each other, vocals and etc.
[32] - 8 paragraphs dedicated to a specific song (Fortuna), a critical look. We can see suggestions for improvement such as repetitive bass, layering and etc. We can pay attention to the editorial comments like "the structure of the track does not quite fit the typical radio format, mainly due to its lengthy intro", about layering again and etc.
[33] - again primary subject. 5 paragraps article, reviewing two compositions.
[34] - 15 paragraphs in total: 5 paragraphs of general words, 2-3 paragraphs for each of several songs (6-7 in total), talking more about the artistic image of the compositions rather than the purely technical part, such as synthesizers and instruments.
[35] - 9 paragraphs reviewing two compositions, 4-5 for each. talking about a moment when the singer joins in the mix, about lyrics, about mixing genres, how the artist plays with song's dynamics and tempo.
[36] - a bad source. has been discussed. (see previous AfD)
With all that said, there are enough different verifiable sources to keep the article. 8 out of 9 WP:RS comply with rules on music sources, the best three of them (per WP:THREE) are 14, 15, 12, as was the case in my quick analysis above. Roxy177 (talk) 17:50, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]


  • Comment There is evidence to show that all the authors involved in these reviews have history of questionable conduct.

The plagiarism from Sha be Allah is pretty blatant, so I would have serious reservations about trusting any subsequent reviews. I also noticed plagiarism (or at least very close paraphrasing) by "David Thompson", the author of all the reviews on Musictimes. Here's one example:

An Idiot's Guide to EDM Genres (Complex - Oct 2017) REVIEW: PYTI is Showing The Other Side of Dubstep (Musictimes Mar 2023)
While the term "EDM" has been a buzz term for the last few years, electronic dance music has been here for decades.

And no matter how you slice it, we can't see the term EDM and lump every style and artist that puts out electronic music into one pot.

It does a disservice to the individuals making the music, and the people who have been documenting the music.

Although EDM has been a trendy term in recent years, Electronic Dance Music has been around for decades.

The diversity of styles is very wide and differentiated; no matter how you look at it, we cannot lump all genres and artists into one group.

This does not satisfy the people who are dedicated to making this kind of music as well as those who have been documenting the evolution of this movement.

Contrary to popular belief, dubstep was not directly born from a love of dub music; it started as a darker, more experimental take on the 2-step sound that was running through London in the late 1990s. Clocking in at 140BPM, the early sound of dubstep was far from the aggressive tracks that are associated with the genre today. Early incarnations of dubstep are over a decade old, but the sound really started to grow in 2005 It started out as a darker, more experimental take. At 140 BPM, the sound of dubstep was far from the aggressive tracks that are associated with the genre today. The earliest incarnations of dubstep date back more than 10 years, but the sound really started to grow in 2005

I have to go, but I will have more to say on this shortly.-KH-1 (talk) 13:15, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is this what you meant when you said that there are sources that are likely "pay-for-play"? As for the bad source by Sha be Allah, that's what I wrote above in my analysis - bad source. God only knows how the authors write their articles, but this is not a reason not to count good reviews, there are enough of them here. You did a good job analyzing the source, but how does this relate to the subject's music? What you discovered. This is not plagiarism, but it seems like a paraphrase, I agree. But the sentence "dubstep is an aggressive, dark, experimental style of music, with a 140 bpm, and it began to grow in 2005" does not mean that the source is bad, or unreliable, or "pay-to-play". This is history. And if you type it into Google, many articles contain this to some degree. Let's take a look at these three for example: [37] , [38] , [39]. As you can see, each of these articles contains "a dark, experimental style of music, 140 bpm, and it began to grow in 2005 in US". Your evidence does not prove anything, it is the history and general facts about that particular style of music. Once again, in my formal analysis I described these sentences as "general phrases." How these general phrases relate to “subject’s music”, “Notability” and how this confirms that the article about subject should be deleted is not clear.
We must answer the question whether there are enough reliable sources covering the subject's music, and whether they fit the Wikipedia rules (independent, reliable, sigcov) or not. They fit and there are enough of them. We may not count the source somewhere if paraphrasing about dubstep confuses you, but these are general phrases about dubstep genre, they don’t relate to the subject anyway.
And I kindly invite you to take a look at the best WP:THREE music review sources I suggested above. If they are not strong enough in your opinion, then there is an additional one for each that makes it even stronger. Roxy177 (talk) 17:41, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The integrity of the writing goes to the heart of whether a source should be considered for WP:N. You described Sha Be Allah's work as "a bad source" [40], after the revelations of plagiarism. Applying the same standard, we should question the validity of David Thompson's work as well. Also, I'm not done with the analysis of the Musictimes review. After plagiarizing the intro/background section, the author makes a contrived segue:

Into all of this environment, a Belarus musician has made his way, by adding his own essence and style. We are talking about PYTI, whose real name is Alexey Nikitin.

He then goes on to describe the music. To me, the prose used throughout the rest of the article seems a bit odd:

The deep lines of his tracks, the calculated rhythmic dispersion, and its atmosphere of restlessness as well as the halo of mystery that surround his creations, have made of him an illustrative musician of the tension of the young millennium stop.

What does that even mean? There's more to be said about the writing style in the other reviews as well. I can go through it in detail, but the general gist of it is that these do not seem like genuine reviews.-KH-1 (talk) 02:50, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You can't really plagiarize facts, they generally count as common knowledge. Typically you don't need to fear, writing a fact. You can plagiarize opinions. For example: someone lost a war on a certain island in the Pacific Ocean in the late 1990s. And another example: someone lost a war on a certain island in the Pacific Ocean in the late 1990s due to a lack of ammunition, equipment, poor logistics, no friends and etc. Dry historical facts vs opinion on why someone lost a war. Returning back to this source, that intro/background section where he talks about dubstep history, contains historical facts or an author’s opinion?
Let’s talk about writing style, I like, that you mentioned that. You said “I have serious doubts over the legitimacy of some of these reviews”, now I understand, what confuses you. This sentence looks really fancy:) Look, I try to explain using an example: Imagine a reliable source and an author who talks about how he loves LGBTQIA+, that there was a festival, let’s say, somewhere in Belarus, and there was a subject who was such a great leader, that he was even an illustrative figure of young millenniums, and how much beautiful people he saw, how he loved their fight for equality, and he used laudatory phrases and a doubtful transition from one section to another in his article. Are we going to count this article “does not seem like genuine review” because of author’s writing style or because we can’t accept the author’s mood? Or we still may write an article based on that example from NPOV? This is the point. Every author has their own taste in music and writing style to some degree, whether it’s in a positive mood or a negative one, we may use them all, and the result is a written article about subject based on those WP:RS and from WP:NPOV.
Wikipedia is encyclopedia, it provides summaries of knowledge. We have different reviews of varying degrees of criticism here, critical reviews too, and they comply with the Wikipedia's guidelines on music sources, which I analyzed above. Roxy177 (talk) 07:05, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I present my analysis of WP:THREE good sources:

Let's look at another review by this author you are talking about: MusicTimes - Sunswept review

At the beginning of the article author talks about the track structure:

From the slow build-up at the intro, which transitions into a fast, upbeat tempo as the song progresses, the artist uses various techniques to evoke a sense of anticipation and closure throughout the song.

Analyzes the introduction:

During the track's intro, a deliberate pace builds slowly and smoothly into the song's primary groove. In the intro section, the artist also introduces melodic hooks using a cool bluesy melody and percussions to grab the listener's attention.

Then describes the alternation of tempo. Talking about transitions between sections of a song:

The transitions between various sections are well executed, allowing a smooth progression that keeps listeners engaged even when the tempo drops. The smooth transitions also add a sense of anticipation to the song and provide a satisfying release during the composition's outro.

Then author analyzes the harmonic progression, mixing, danceability of the track, etc. I see no point in quoting the entire review. Finally, he analyzes potential areas for improvement.

The review quality is clear.


Let's take an in-depth look at the review by Sha be Allah: The Source - Sunswept review

Intro:

The track opens with some retro inspired synths, programmed in a fast paced arpeggiated sequence. It comes off as almost ethereal, with some washy atmospheric sweeps in the background to create anticipation for the next section. While not particularly groundbreaking, it serves its purpose as a calm and peaceful starting point and does its job of setting the stage for an anticipated drop.

This is immediately followed by a detailed critique of the following section:

Just as the song insinuates, the initial drop comes right afterwards, albeit a bit too intensely. The most prominent element is the sidechained kick, which is a bit heavy in the mix. The imbalance of the kick drum vs the synthesizers takes away from the spotlight that the synth melodies should be receiving. However, on a second or third listen, the ears tend to enjoy the danceability of that intense beat. It’s a double-edged sword that can be both exhilarating and overwhelming for the listener.

Then analysis of the second verse:

Verse two arrives afterwards, and the fast paced sequenced arpeggiators are introduced again, bringing a nice allude to the introduction.

Critical analysis of the second drop:

The persistent dominance of the kick drum is still there, but the synths appear louder in volume and layered more, making it a more complete drop than the first.

Detailed analysis of the outro:

The outro brings back the consistent retro synth sound underneath a new counter melody. The new key sound, which alludes to a toy keyboard or a classic patch in Serum, helps ground the finale with some much peace.

And so on. The review quality is clear.


And, finally, let's take a look at the 3rd review: AllHipHop - Fortuna review

Intro:

“Fortuna” begins with a long intro featuring a gentle melody that gradually develops with layered synths, creating a sense of anticipation and tone for the rest of the song. The energy builds up as the intro progresses, then the artist introduces a solid bassline that is repeated almost throughout the entire song. This baseline serves as the foundation that other instruments are layered. And its beats and tempo are fast-paced.

Next author talks about synthesizers and vocal snippets:

The track also utilizes brief vocal snippets that add personality to it and make it more memorable. The vocals also help balance the song, especially when the artist continuously uses many synthesizers.

And so on. At the end there is a conversation about aspects that can be improved:

For example, the structure of the track does not quite fit the typical radio format, mainly due to its lengthy intro, therefore, which could limit its exposure. Also, using too many synths, distortions, and other random elements could clutter the melody and distract some listeners. The layering of too many elements at a time could also distract and overwhelm some listeners.

The review quality is clear.


You are moving the discussion into the idea that if an author once had a bad review, then all subsequent reviews will also be bad, but this is not true. And one does not follow from the other. Or in your opinion, the author cannot write both a bad and a good review? Or do you want us to start discussing whether this particular source is reliable or not? Or any other source. Is the author reliable, can we trust him or not?

My point is if the prose in the article or some sentence “seems a bit odd” for you, you may simply not take this source into account when evaluating N. Let’s evaluate the facts about subject's work. Do these reviews that I quoted comply with the Wikipedia's guidelines? Does the prose convince you? They are sufficient to establish subject's N. Roxy177 (talk) 16:52, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Most of the above is TLDR, but Roxy177's source eval shows significant discussion of the subject and their work. The article is sourced for a BLP, may be a bit promo, but that doesn't dismiss the sources Roxy177 mentions above.  // Timothy :: talk  09:49, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
