  • Delete Dave Hettesheimer's monthly Arizona TV Station Update blog posts indicate that this station never operated. No, really.. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 19:41, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: We now require actual significant coverage to establish the notability required for an article… and there are many actually-operated stations that fall short of that and are finally being removed from Wikipedia; there appears to be little-to-no evidence that KVFA-LP even got that far. Back in 2006, the in-practice "notability standard" in this topic area basically amounted to "it's licensed so it's notable!", but this nominally five-year station that may have never actually signed on demonstrates that was nothing more than the broadcast station equivalent to creating articles on places based solely on GNIS (and there have been many AfDs in that topic area lately as well).

The page has been tagged for six months as needing reliable sources, but nothing has been done. If we remove everything that is unsourced then there is nothing left. So either someone should improve it or it should be deleted. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:31, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy Keep.@Ldm1954: Just because there is a tag and an issue has been unaddressed (for 6 months!!!!) does not mean that an article needs to be deleted. I'll improve the page but may I ask you to withdraw this, please? He is a fairly notable Italian actor as a quick look at any database can confirm...So either someone should improve it or it should be deleted.. I am sorry but no: either he deserves an article or the page should be deleted. Afd is about deletion not cleanup. Again,I will improve the page, but that's not the point. Anyone nominating a page for deletion should look for sources before doing so. Which is apparently not the case here. Thanks.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 23:18, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    If you improve it then I will reverse my nomination, but not until then. Please note that I did a WP:AfD so it could be improved, not a WP:PROD. Ldm1954 (talk) 23:24, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I said I would. I am currently doing it. I added some content and sources. But you SHOULD look for sources yourself before taking a page to Afd (or ProDding it, for that matter). Improvement of pages is not what Afds are for. Pages can be improved thanks to Afds but Afds are not meant for that. Anyway, see for yourself@Ldm1954: but this Afd should in my view be closed as Speedy Keep because you clearly have made no effort to even check if sources existed. At least from what I understand of your rationale and reply. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 23:35, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And please note that If we remove everything that is unsourced then there is nothing left. was not even true. There was one source and NINE links to notable films in which he played (not to mention an IMDb page, which, although not considered reliable for notability should have given you an idea that you would have to dig a little bit further than a tag on the page before initiating this). You could at least have checked that, in my opinion, even if you didn't want to bother searching the internet, not even for a minute. Please have a look at the page now so that we can avoid wasting more time on this. Thanks.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 01:03, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep nominator has misunderstood the Articles for Deletion process. Geschichte (talk) 09:51, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Geschichte, that was a completely inappropriate comment. The response by @Mushy Yank has been what was needed, improvement. However, the current version still contains a table with 15 films, only two of which have RS -- remember that Wikilinks are not considered reliable. If I was feeling nasty I would delete everything which has no sources, in which case... Ldm1954 (talk) 10:39, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Please.....Just CLICK on the films that have an article here!!!!! Is the page without any source at all????? Thank you. If you think further improvements are needed, feel free, but you opened an AfD......this is NOT the article talk page and, from what you are saying, I am sorry, but I fully agree with Geschichte. Hence my Speedy Keep !vote.....no Before has been made and Afds are not for cleanup.....the page is a stub and this is not a GA review.... -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 10:50, 10 February 2024 (UTC).[reply]
    You CANNOT use Wikipedia as a source, see Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Those links are considered irrelevant. Please look at Wikipedia:Proveit, the burden of proof is on the editor. I expect that you can validate that he was in those films, but until you do 95% of the article should be deleted. Ldm1954 (talk) 13:27, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Sigh......... -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 14:23, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @User:Ldm1954 Are you at least watching the page so that you can withdraw as you had said? Sources for every feature film have been added. Only did this to save other users' time. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:13, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, I saw the films (what about the role?). The TV needs the same attention. Ldm1954 (talk) 00:21, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    You must be joking. This is not a GA review! So, let me try to give an outline of what is apparently the Afd process according to you. You see a page on an actor, with a BLP sources tag, and although the actor is said to have a considerable filmography and the page has a source, nine wikilinks and a link to Imdb, you don't open those and, without checking at all if there are other sources to verify if the actor is notable or not, you take the page to Afd. When the fact that he is fairly notable is brought to your attention, you say If you improve it then I will reverse my nomination, but although the page is vastly improved, you don't. Instead you say I expect that you can validate that he was in those films, concerning his (selected) feature films, but even though this second bizarre request is immediately fulfilled, you still don't withdraw. No, instead you demand the names of the characters he plays when a simple click gives you most of them; and sources for all of his tv roles, when some are presented and external links allow you to verify most of the rest. In the meantime, you repeatedly state that most of the content of the page needs to be deleted if unsourced. It has not occurred to you that the actor looks quite notable enough by now? No? And that this is the only point of this discussion. I have no further comments. So much for saving other people's time. I stand more than ever by my Speedy Keep !vote, and will not edit the article any further. You can do it if you wish. Keep up the good work! -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 09:01, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Please reread the guidelines of material for a BLP:
    "Wikipedia's sourcing policy, Verifiability, says that all quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation; material not meeting this standard may be removed."
    This is not my rule, this is standard and applies everywhere. Ldm1954 (talk) 09:19, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That is not the point of this Afd. Afds are for DELETION OF PAGES, not for cleanup. Remove everything you wish from the page. The point here is: is he notable? And why not withdraw as you had said? You can ask for improvements on the article TP, or improve the page yourself if that is what you wish. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 09:27, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP. Somebodyidkfkdt (talk) 23:49, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep, I added a Corriere della Sera article about him, and searching for "Nello Mascia" there are over 900 articles on La Repubblica archives. WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP, and WP:BEFORE was clearly ignored. The cleanup/referencing work the nominator is asking for could have been done by himself, easily. Some of his comments here look ridicolously inappropriate if not disruptive (eg. 'If I was feeling nasty...'). Competence is required. Cavarrone 08:28, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Now Keep as the issues have largely been resolved, although he still has a loooong list of unsourced TV appearances. This compares to the original which had one RS (in Italian) that he was an actor/director in one play, and no other since Wikipedia is not a RS. Italian is not required.

Notable achievements include: founding several companies including Original Stitch. Please view the article's history as important information has been deleted by editors nominating it for deletion. For example an editor deleted the following fact: "In 2012 Koh founded Original Stitch, a fashion company based in San Francisco, that uses on-demand manufacturing to create men's shirts."[1][2] With all the deletions the article is practically empty! In addition edit requests have been denied, for example, "In 2012, Koh served as the Vice-President of Mobile Solutions for Splashtop and oversaw its operations in Japan."[3] What is going here?

    Greg, why are you saying I deleted important information from the article? I did no such thing.

  • Keep as a stage actor. He played Macbeth in Macbeth in Newcastle [1]. This production got two reveiws and two articles (more on one later) and while most are in the local paper, the last is in the national newspaper The Australian. He played Bassanio for Bell Shakespeare's 1999 run of The Merchant of Venice [2]. Rose, Colin (2 May 1999), "Pretty (awful) in pink", The Sun Herald - Hallett, Bryce (3 May 1999), "Lesson for today from the Bard", The Sydney Morning Herald - Carroll, Steven (20 June 1999), "The Merchant Of Venice", The Sydney Morning Herald - Phipps, Ian (2 May 1999), "Merchant gets pound of flesh", The Daily Telegraph - [3] [4] and so on. Played Paul in a run of Brilliant Lies from the plays debut [5] more at [6]. It appears to be a second tier character so significant role question is not so certain but he does get mentioned in reviews. This run got a lot of coverage, 6 reviews listed for the debut and another 7 for Playhouse (Vic) [7] +1. It has more from other stops on it's tour. Was one of four actors in Murder by Misadventure at Marian Street Theatre [8] and it has 5 reviews listed. One of the articles mentioned above for Macbeth is Ken Longworth, Shakespeare veteran at 33, Newcastle Herald, 25 February 1993 which appears to have Walton as the primary focus. When he played alongside his wife for the first time in many years in Worst Kept Secrets the was an article Connellan, Matthew (12 November 2014), "Coupledom comes in many flavours", Northern District Times that told us about that. He played a lead and the play had multiple articles/reviews - Hook, Chris (13 November 2014), "Man maketh his mark in mysterious ways", Daily Telegraph - Keene, Neil (15 November 2014), "Just playing with politics", Daily Telegraph - - Gorman, James (19 November 2014), "Powerful Secrets", Central . Some additional notes, was in The Philadelphia Story at the Sydney Opera House [9] but I've only found two reviews (not too bad for 1986) "Two good performances, no doubt, help. There is the assured acting of Rhett Walton (only one year out of NIDA) as C.K. Dexter Haven - the Cary Grant role. He has the required eaze, naturalness and spontaneity on which the Barry charm depends."Kippax, H.G. (11 October 1986), "Philadelphia fails to live up to its legend", The Sydney Morning Herald + [10]. Appears to play either Tybalt or Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet [11] which has 10 reviews listed. "Credit as well to Michael Hurst who has choreographed the most exciting duel I've ever seen on stage and to Richard Roxburgh and Rhett Walton who bring it off."Evans, Bob (2 June 1989), "Full-blooded bard", The Sydney Morning Herald.

Duplicated article. See Lists of endangered languages. It was a redirect since 2009 until the author's recent edits. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 16:43, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"List of endangered languages" was a redirect to "Lists of endangered languages", which is a seperate page. If someone types in "List of endangered languages", they don't want to tab through some 50 articles on every region's endangered languages, and there should be one single comprehensive list of every endangered language. Rotprince (talk) 16:47, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is a poor quality article in many ways, unlike the existing Lists of endangered languages. For one all the language links go to Simple English Wikipedia, rather than the Wikipedia we are on. Second, it seems that the assessments of current status next to each language seem to be unsourced and completely subjective assessments fabricated by the author (you, as it were). There is no apparent rhyme or reason to these assessments; for example the author (again, you) claim your own language, the Frisian languages are only in "steady decline" while Catalan is in "very fast decline" (an absurd claim to anyone who knows anything at all about these two languages). It also makes outlandish, unsupported claims, e.g. it lists Sanskrit as an endangered language (in fact, it is extinct), and also makes the debunked claim that Sanskrit is the mother of all Indo-European languages. All in all, it would be an extremely poor article even if there weren't already another article that accomplishes the same function, but better; but given there is, the article should absolutely be deleted post-haste.

  • Redirect, as per above. RodRabelo7 (talk) 19:49, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect as above. The editor working on this appears to be in good faith in attempting a single list of all endagnered languages on one page rather than taking the list of lists approach of the redirect. Unfortunately this has two problems. Firstly it forks the list, and that divides editor effort and allows inconsistencies to arise. As such it is a redundant content fork (WP:REDUNDANTFORK). The other problem is that a single list of all endangered languages would need some 2,500 entries, and that is too long for a single list. Thus the current approach is better and redirect is in order. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 16:19, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    The person you are replying to is suggesting a redirect, not a delete per se. You can implement this redirect yourself just by changing the content of the page to a redirect- as the nominator Super Dromaeosaurus did previously, but which you reverted, as you might recall.
    For future reference, you can refer to these instructions on how to delete pages that you created, but note that such requests are unlikely to be granted if other people have also edited the article. Brusquedandelion (talk) 00:14, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

At best, a bit of overly enthusiast in-universe writing or an attempt to promote the film.[38] Created in 2004‎, tagged with needing additional citations since 2010, and only sourced to the sites connected to the film and geocities-ish sites. But this is just a non-notable character from a small, independent film. I searched Google, ebsco, proquest, newspapers.com, proquest, and archive.org. From the Vimeo listing (my emph) Iranian-English director Kivmars Bowling has found a new way to bring period drama to a modern audience and bring this original story to life. [39] Nothing in the archived director statement or any other marketing materials claims the movie is based on a real person (press kit: [40]). The movie was in production when the article was created (see [41] from the film's blog: The script was written in 2002/3 and we shot the film in England in 2004.). Our article links to [42] which has documents that purport to be official government documents but are likely made for the film). (I think the movie is of questionable notability (zero published reviews) but the claim that it was the last movie be filmed with "Kodachrome 40 Super 8 film" [43] is interesting but I can't find any independent, reliable sources repeating the claim. I think creating a fresh article on the film if sources are found would be the path forward.) Skynxnex (talk) 14:36, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Massage for Relaxation" was the first instructional internationally-distributed video on the market. I can safely say this as co-owner of New & Unique Videos, a production and distribution company established in 1985. Our company attended many VSDA and NATPE conventions at that time to make distribution deals and there were no other professionally produced massage videos in existence until Sherri Belafonte came out with hers in 1987, two years AFTER "Massage for Relaxation."
If Chiswick Chap using wishy washy language ("may merit" "doesn't seem" "probably") believes there were any other professionally-produced and distributed instructional massage videos prior to this one, please post evidence. BTW, most instructional videos made in the year 1985 are now considered "ho-hum" because they are nearly 40 years old and cannot possibly compare to today's standards in video. There is an industry now that exists merely to poke fun at VHS tapes from the 1980s.
"Massage for Relaxation" was the first video to introduce the idea of self massage and show self-massage techniques, which makes it notable. It was a three-camera shoot in a San Diego studio, also notable at the time. It was produced by a woman (me) which is also notable for its time. Try not to compare what happened in the 1980s using today's standards, or you will erase history the way a bunch of men burned down the Alexandria Library to eradicate the work of Hypatia. The result: Historians now have to cobble together any pertinent history about her via letters she wrote to a student. Her more important works were burned down and went up in smoke with the library.
You may notice that just about every Youtube video about massage these days is called "Massage for Relaxation." However, New & Unique Videos holds the copyright for that title.
To conclude, Wikipedian Michael Q. Schmidt, is the person who wrote the "Massage for Relaxation" article. In his opinion, and mine, too, it is better to improve an article than to summarily delete it. Patty Mooney (talk) 21:55, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder if there’s any appetite for this proposed deletion. To my mind, the article is a complete mess. Not only is it almost entirely a synthesis of material, but I’m not convinced it warrants an article even if that problem were resolved.

All such an article would do is summarise the "types of nationalism" contained within the Template:Nationalism_sidebar, but given those types already all have their own articles, does that information actually need to be repeated here in an article of its own? Yr Enw (talk) 08:09, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - this kind of thing is difficult, IMO. It is clearly true that scholars have defined the topic in different ways and have focussed on different aspects. But I don't really think it is the role of Wikipedia to tie these things together, and it is hard to see how to do that without WP:BIAS and WP:SYNTH. On the other hand, we do have "overview" articles on various topics and I can see that this could be useful for at-a-glance basic information and navigation. It's also possible that printed overviews of the topic exist, so perhaps we are not here creating something new. I'm not sure how to resolve these tensions.

As such, the article meets our inclusion guidelines. Editorial concerns like WP:SYNTH can be dealt with via normal editing. The problems are not so bad that wholesale deletion is warranted. Jfire (talk) 05:37, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The taxonomy of nationalisms is not really what that article deals with though. At present, it’s entirely repeated information or synthesised material. Yr Enw (talk) 06:33, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What, in your mind, is the distinction between a taxonomy of nationalism, and the existing article, which, for example, has divisions of "ethnic nationalism", "civic nationalism", and "ideological nationalism", subdividing the first into "expansionist nationalism" and "romantic nationalism", and the last into "revolutionary nationalism", "liberation nationalism", and "left-wing" or "socialist nationalism". You don't consider that a taxonomy? Jfire (talk) 06:41, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Right, of course that's a taxonomy, but you said "Typologies and taxonomies of nationalism have definitely received scholarly study" and the article doesn't deal with that. In other words, the article presents a taxonomy, but it isn't about how typologies and taxonomies of nationalism have been dealt with in the literature. But that isn't the only issue with the article. Even if we dismiss that semantic distinction, the divisions in the article all have their own articles anyway, which renders this specific article redundant per WP:REDUNDANTFORK.

Comment Hello @Toughpigs:, so I reviewed all six sources and am not convinced they're a lot of shallow routine coverages like opening announcements occurring shortly, not unlike those that happen for the first Home Depot opening in town. Others are about plays. I am not finding significant, fully independent coverage WP:ORGING in multiple sources with at least one being widely circulated WP:AUD. These plays are taking place, the venue is opening, and such do not count as significant coverage. Significant coverage in newsletters and hyperlocal like Carmel Pine Cone don't satisfy WP:AUD. Lots of tiny coverages like opening announcements and advertisement of plays occurring at the venue is not an indication of notability itself. @Cl3phact0:, in which sources is it covered in depths showing it is of interest in the context of California history? Graywalls (talk) 15:58, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The San Francisco Examiner piece is neither local or routine. San Francisco is more than 100 miles away from Carmel Valley, and the article specifically says that the theater is special:
"Having heard reports of an extraordinary new playhouse in Carmel Valley where puppet productions were staged this summer, I decided to find it last Sunday afternoon. The Tantamount Theater is located on an enchanting hilltop where it stands against the horizon with striking elegance... There are 144 seats, a remarkable lighting system and a splendid curtain, painted by Martin, depicting a group of Moliere's 17th century actors. The puppeteers (with three assistants) have just finished an engagement of Midsummer Night's Dream which was preceded by Uncle Tom's Cabin and Le Bourgeous Gentilhomme."
This is an independent major city newspaper, giving detailed and specific coverage of the theater's architecture and productions. It is not a "first Home Depot opening" type report or the routine announcement of a new play. Toughpigs (talk) 16:05, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Comparing Stanley Eichelbaum's beautiful and informative writing about this theater with a routine announcement of a Home Depot opening is, well several words come to mind. I will go with ludicrous. Eichelbaum was a widely respected film and theater critic San Francisco for decades, and his critical assessments are quoted at least 20 times on Wikipedia. Carmel Valley is 130 miles from San Francisco so this is not local coverage and it is significant coverage. Added to all of the other coverage, I believe that notability is established.

  • Most of Tim's boilerplate vote is about the contents of BLP, not their existence. NACTOR is part of NBIO so a pass of the former is not a fail of the latter. Tim dismisses the above link I provided as merely a database record but fails to look at what is contained in the record
Review: Bill Perrett, Agenda, 13 June 2004, 23
Review: Helen Thomson, A3, 8 June 2004, 8
Review: Kate Herbert, The Herald Sun, 16 June 2004, 62
When combined with the also mentioned Age article it shows that this production is notable and as Mr. Paterson has a significant role in the production it counts toward NACTOR section about significant roles in notable production. This is not a NOTINHERITED failure but a direct application of the relevant SNG.
A look at the article for Dreams for Life (which if all else had been found wanting would be a good alternative to deletion target so no deletion would be required) shows that it too is notable and that Mr. Paterson has a significant role (as acknowledged above by Tim above). So there is another role that directly addresses that same NACTOR criteria. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:09, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Barely any noteworthy coverage out there. None of the sources here are independent. Aintabli (talk) 06:27, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

On the other hand, I would suggest that as Harpa Dei are essentially a front group and cash cow for the Agnus Dei Community sect, and its leader, convicted s*x abuser Herbert Grundberger; and that as they have hundreds of thousands of social media followers and seem constantly to be on tour worldwide; they are notable because of these things! Their music is actually very good, and they have recorded many CDs. As they rarely mention the Agnus Dei Community by name (or the reasons why the sect was kicked out of Ecuador), it is unlikely that most fans or journalists have more than a vague idea about their background.
It is true that there is not much news or other non-social media coverage of Harpa Dei, except for articles saying that they will soon perform somewhere, or that their concert was nice. Even so, I believe that Harpa Dei are notable! But I admit, I am not an expert on Wikipedia standards of notability.

  • I would consider established fanzines reliable when it comes to opinions (i.e. reviews). They have a firmly established place within subculture, and would be a considerably better source than if a mainstream newspaper suddenly tried to dip its toes in the scene. There is of course a considerable difference between MRR, Flipside (fanzine) and Punk Planet and someone's entirely new fanzine. Whereas reviews are fine, capsule reviews don't contribute to notability, but can be added nonetheless. I found a capsule review here and a somewhat longer review here.

As always, unincorporated neighbourhoods or communities within larger municipalities are not "inherently" notable enough for their own standalone articles as separate topics from their parent municipality -- it depends on the depth of reliable GNG-worthy sourcing about the community that can be shown to demonstrate that it has standalone notability as a separate topic, and a community that can't be shown to meet the necessary standard of sourcing just gets a redirect to the parent place.
But except for just one article in a local-interest magazine, which isn't enough coverage to meet GNG all by itself, this is otherwise referenced entirely to primary sources that aren't support for notability at all, like maps and content self-published by the municipal government. In addition, it warrants note that this was created at the incorrect title "Mayfield West, Canada", in defiance of MOS:CANNEIGH, in an attempt to bypass the fact that the correct title already existed as a redirect to Caledon.
So the appropriate remedy here is to delete this, and restore the original redirect to Caledon, Ontario, because this isn't the kind of sourcing that it takes to get an unincorporated community over GEOLAND. Bearcat (talk) 22:59, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    It's a shame to see a 19th century village being obscured by a 1974 housing development that nicked its name and tacked "West" onto the end. And no mention of this in Caledon, Ontario#History.

    • Shame or not, we need GNG-worthy sourcing before we can maintain an article about it. Bearcat (talk) 14:02, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • Let's see you make that argument at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ravipalli. ☺ Uncle G (talk) 15:07, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • Mayfield would be a formerly populated place if we can prove it, meaning we just need WP:V to maintain the article. I'm getting lots of ancient hits that people were from there. Mayfield West though should be merged back into Caledon. SportingFlyer T·C 10:54, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        • Well I can definitely name nine people that lived there. ☺ As well as the 138 votes cast from Mayfield in an election in December 1892, although that was for a Peel County position and belongs in an election results table in Peel County, Ontario if anywhere.

          And I didn't mention Caledon, Ontario#History idly. This article's first source is all about that, but ironically not used in that article at all. Because a Wikipedia editor has decided to write up the town's history in an article about a "service centre", a totally obscure place to put it. More irony: the first source is indeed false sourcing for this article, because it doesn't actually talk about any "rural service centre" at all.

          • This isn't Mayfield (near Mayfield Road and Dixie). This is Mayfield West - a relatively modern suburb about 2 km further west (and north), which is more related to Snelgrove, Ontario than Mayfield. Nfitz (talk) 01:15, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
            • We all know what tacking "West" on the end meant, Nfitz. Uncle G (talk) 09:55, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Agree with Uncle G, using my genealogy tricks, I don't think much was ever written about the place. If you went there and got into the courthouse, or if better newspaper coverage was available it might be doable. But we'd be talking about moving this to Mayfield ontario, and writing about that. The place this article is actually about is non notable.James.folsom (talk) 23:13, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm not having problems find plenty of coverage about Mayfield West - see this search. I'll leave question of notability to others. Nfitz (talk) 01:20, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • That would be a handful of mentions, all primary, all saying it's a community or housing development. All stuff Uncle G, already pointed out. James.folsom (talk) 23:59, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This is a substantial and growing new suburban area that even has a new urbanism component (retail on Kennedy Rd.). It does need improvement though, such as changing the community type from "Rural Service Centre" to "Neighbourhood", clarifying where it exactly is. Transportfan70 (talk) 14:35, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Neighbourhoods within larger municipalities are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, or even just because they're purportedly growing — they have to be shown as the subject of enough reliable source coverage to pass WP:GNG, in order to earn anything more than a redirect to the parent entity. So what sources do you have to offer that would get this place over GNG? Bearcat (talk) 15:19, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      There are tons of articles on neighborhoods in the GTA actually, and this one is notable as a rather unusual urbanized area (that's growing rapidly) in the context of the predominately rural municipality of Caledon. PS: Is Valleywood part of it? Transportfan70 (talk) 02:05, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and comment. While I do think he passes WP:PROF#C1, both for his work in mathematics and in computer science, I want to note that the usual difficulties of comparing citation counts are significantly magnified for someone like Shende (or me) who publishes both in computer science and in mathematics. You can't compare the numbers from different of his publications to get an idea which are the important ones, and you can't compare aggregate numbers against his coauthors, without first splitting the computer science papers from the mathematics papers, because those areas have very different rates of citation. (The same thing happens even more frequently with statisticians, who are expected to do the statistical analysis on papers in other topics, frequently with high citation rates, and also to do basic research in statistics, frequently with much lower citation rates. The statisticians have probably developed methods for doing the citation analysis properly but I don't know what those methods might be.) —David Eppstein (talk) 06:07, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I finally got around to actually reading this article. Almost all of it is about foxes. Why not remove the one subsection that is about a dog and make the article about foxes in Meitei culture? That would resolve the WP:SYNTH issue neatly. Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:20, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep or merge : I don't mean to be confronting or offending anyone's decision. I see that you are worried about WP:SYNTHESIS. However, I believe that we need not to mention that Canidae is a group of animals including dogs, foxes, wolves, jackals, etc. It's a universal fact. It's a scientific fact. It's an immovable fact. The article is about only dogs, foxes, wolves, jackals, and not about lions or tigers or horses. At the same time, we need not to find sources that mention that Meitei folktales of foxes are parts of the culture of Meitei speaking people alias Manipuri speaking people. I don't think so. Everyone knows folklore, mythology, cinema, theatres of X are the parts of X culture, endorsed by the Wikipedia:You don't need to cite that the sky is blue. At the same time, other than English language sources, I provide other Indian language book links as citations. They already cover the topic extensively in depth.

  • Delete. Obvious WP:Peacocking. Brusquedandelion (talk) 03:33, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Are there any precedents for this? Upon reading the title, I wondered if Meitei culture was perhaps not universally acknowledged as an independent culture, the way some Native American tribes aren't recognized by the United States government, and this article was about the debate. It seems it's not. Is there a "Recognition of Cheyenne/Uighur/Hakka culture" article? Darkfrog24 (talk) 18:20, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    There's no such precedent, and we should hastily delete this article before it creates such precedent.
    The closest equivalent to the Native American analogy is that the Government of India did not officially recognize Meitei/Manipuri until the Seventy-first Amendment of the Constitution of India, when Meitei was added to the Eighth Schedule. India also has a system for "scheduling" so-called "tribes and castes," but this generally occurs at a level much more granular than ethnicity, broadly constructed, and is reserved for groups considered especially socio-economically disadvantaged.
    From the perspective of Wikipedia, all this is already well-covered elsewhere: the articles linked above, and at Meitei language movement, inter alia. Furthermore, the actual content of the article under discussion, as it stands, does not even cover these issues, but rather consists largely of peacocking.

  • Draftify Delete: I'm a little confused on the time frame of this. It's had a "first look," but it might not have started shooting, but it'll be done by October 4? Weird.

  • Comment - The issue with draftification on this one is that it was already disputed by the creator. Sending it back to draft, something I often do as an WP:ATD is a great option, but once the creator disputes it I do not see draftification as an option. Too many times in these cases it will simply be moved back to mainspace before its ready and we will be right back at AfD. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:52, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is an odd one, but hear me out. I think this article has problems on a few fronts, namely that there's really at the core not a lot to say, the whole article could be summarized in a list entry easily. But the bigger issue is the core of the reception, well pretty much *all* the reception, is something in a week's span or less, and says a lot of the same thing over and over. I don't feel that makes it notable per WP:SUSTAINED. Kung Fu Man (talk) 20:59, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Fictional elements and Video games. Kung Fu Man (talk) 20:59, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Josie Rizal has a lot (or at least a decent amount) when it comes to her being a Phillipines representation, something most Tekken characters don't seem to get when it comes to representing their country, so I don't agree its an example of WP:SUSTAINED, which seems to be more about news and events. Also consider the detailed creation section, which is covered by third-party sources. Overall, there's enough discussion on her character to satisfy notability, and for her to have an article. MoonJet (talk) 21:59, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • All of it is within a small timeframe, March 31, 2015 - April 8, 2015 at the latest, and that was after extensive searching. That's slightly over a week. Afterward radio silence, even when searching Japanese sources. That's entirely what SUSTAINED is for: we have to show that there was coverage beyond one short blip or controversy.
  • Now as for the creation section, we have discussion about her design on a Yahoo article from the writer's perspective and not the actual devs, a possibly unreliable source asserting she borrows moves from Manny Pacquiao, and a CBR ref that's proposing a theory. This isn't development info, this is outside sources looking at a thing and suggesting correlations. The Yahoo one, at best, would be useful for citing her character design, but not commentary on how it came about or what's missing on it.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 22:20, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    A bit late here, but as I said, that guideline seems to be more for events and BLPs than for fictional elements. Even then, it only notes caution, rather than coverage in other timeframes is a must. Also keep in mind WP:NOTTEMPORARY. The fact that most (but not all like you imply) of her coverage was within a timeframe should not be relevant. MoonJet (talk) 17:35, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge The article will have a tough time standing on its own when the only outside analysis is controversy. I can't see notability being clearly proven. As usual, there is more than enough to justify a list section. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 05:18, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge Article needs more notability to stand by itself. Kazama16 (talk) 21:30, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    We have at least three sources covering the character beyond trivial or passing mentions. Enough to pass the WP:GNG, and fulfill the purpose of WP:WHYN. Namely, the sources from Yahoo, Kotaku and IGN. And beyond that, there's CBR and MSN, just to name a couple more sources. MoonJet (talk) 17:30, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    MoonJet, the sources still have the same problem I mentioned above: short time frame next to each other and leading to a SUSTAINED issue. Other sources like the CBR one above aren't actually saying anything tangible. Same problem I mentioned above, nothing has changed since my last statement.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 17:39, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    But like I said, it only notes to take caution, rather than coverage in other timeframes is a must. Also keep in mind WP:NOTTEMPORARY. The fact that most (but not all like you imply) of her coverage was within a timeframe should not be relevant. MoonJet (talk) 14:48, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge So, the article mostly relies in controversy section. But, there's no actual discussion about that character except the controversy only. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 22:53, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge Per others. SUSTAINED is an indicator that notability is not established, despite MoonJet's insistence about NOTTEMPORARY. The argument here isn't that Josie Rizal "lost" notability, but that Josie Rizal was never notable in the first place. MoonJet should probably reread NOTTEMPORARY which is very clear that while notability is not temporary, that doesn't mean a reassessment won't find a topic non-notable. Disclosure, I've arrived here due to MoonJet posting to WP:VGCHAR talk page. Additionally SUSTAINED is not an SNG and is not limited to "events and BLPs" as MoonJet suggested either. -- ferret (talk) 14:58, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per ferret; this character lacks significant, sustained coverage and therefore is not notable. NOTTEMPORARY does not render articles immune to later assessments that may or may not find that a given articles is, in fact, not notable. Happy editing, SilverTiger12 (talk) 18:26, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge for WP:CONSENSUS. I understand why someone would want to WP:PRESERVE this information, but I agree with the other editors about merging to a list. I think you could write a significant reception section at an article about the characters, plural. Shooterwalker (talk) 14:45, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article in its lamentable current state reads more like a brief collection of vague examples within the very broad concept of time poverty. I'd say an article on this particular phrase is more suited for Wikitionary than for Wikipedia. A concise definition and any brief etymological/historical context of the expression is all that's needed. Mooonswimmer 20:57, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Heavy on WP:SYNTH, and the term itself is sourced to LinkedIn, clearly not a RS. A merge or move to Time poverty doesn't make much sense because the sources cited aren't specifically describing the same thing (hence the SYNTH) and without all the examples-in-search-of-a-subject, there isn't much left that isn't already covered in that article. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 01:35, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: This feels largely like an essay. It includes many opinions in the prose ("Time by all accounts, [sic] is the most valuable thing people can possess.") and doesn't source the common use of the phrase very well. Mentions articles but doesn't attribute authors. I think that "time poverty" might be notable, but the article is supposed to be about the phrase, and none of the work of this article is really usable except for the sources (besides the Linkedin one). —asparagusus (interaction) sprouts! 23:26, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
