List of World War II Bronze Star Medal recipients[edit]

As stand alone lists, these lists lacks notability. The Bronze Star was very commonly awarded an its award is not something that would be used in determining the notability of a recipient. The frequency of the award makes the scope of this list immense and would make maintenance of the lists a logistical nightmare. Limiting inclusion on the list to people who are already the subject of an article makes the lists the equivalent of a category; a category that was deleted at CFD earlier this year (see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2017 March 27#Category:Recipients of the Bronze Star Medal) Nthep (talk) 22:32, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment I don't really have an opinion one way or the other on these, as I can clearly see the arguments favoring both retention and deletion. That said, I find the lack of policy-based arguments in the above to be profoundly disturbing. Please explain why this isn't notable and why you believe it should be deleted. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:43, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- The guideline in question is WP:LISTN: a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources. Thus a list of non-notable individuals is possible, if the group is notable. (This often arises because of BLP1E) But the same guideline notes implicitly that a list article becomes impractical when the numbers involved become too large to make it manageable. We cannot list 400,000 names without blowing a technical limit or two, and even the list of notable recipients (ie ones with Wikipedia articles) runs into the thousands. It then just becomes an indiscriminate list of names, which brings up WP:NOT. It is understood that even decorations that are regarded as common like the Pacific Star may be highly prized by recipients. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 21:29, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete We deleted the category because some 400,000 of these medals were issued during WWII. [1] How can it then make sense to have a list article? Hawkeye7 (discuss) 11:20, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per above. I agree with the WP:INDISCRIMINATE/WP:DEFINE argument and the highly selective nature of this list with regard to the staggering number of recipients of this award. This specific information of this award should be on the article of the notable person; not the other way around. Ventric (talk) 21:10, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As explained by
Rhadow at the talk page:
The best solution would be to merge it into Oppression, a frequently edited article, where it could get attention, editing, and perhaps deletion if required. As it is, this article is an unnecessary NPOV fork. In any case, the title is wrong. It should be National oppression.
He/she also explains that it is "not a hoax, but rather an essay of original research."

- Delete The article feels a lot more like a student's essay than a hoax, but either way, it fails WP:POV and WP:NOTESSAY, and the article's definition of "National Oppression" is poorly defined and is mostly based on the United States' historic race relationships (the article also talks about how the Russian communists opposed the so-called "National Oppression" from the imperialists, but I feel it's completely unrelated to what the article is supposedly talking about). 98.209.191.37 (talk) 02:32, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Given the issues of systematic bias and the different standards for what it takes to be a high-level academic in different countries, I suspect we may be better off in this sort of case skipping the usual citation counting (he fails WP:PROF#C1 by our usual standards [2]) and instead looking for national or international-level media coverage that might be enough for WP:GNG instead. But in this case all I can find are either trivial mentions with no depth of coverage of the subject [3] [4] or stories about other people with similar names. So I can't find any notability that way either. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:25, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think this may be an indiscriminate collection of loosely related places. Some of these are simply named "end of the world" or a foreign-language equivalent.

- Delete. At first I thought it sounded plausible but then I realised that a lot of the entries are not solid and that World's End and Land's End (disambiguation) (which link to eachother) are the correct place for the valid entries here. There might be a valid article in the general phenomenon of choosing such place names, which clearly spans many languages and locations, but this isn't it. --DanielRigal (talk) 01:43, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. I reached the same conclusion as DanielRigal. While there is no objection to a serious discussion of land's end or end of the world (as notable concepts), the current list has no added value beyond End of the world and Land's End (disambiguation). gidonb (talk) 10:39, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Remember that decisions are made through consensus. Did you read my rationale for my recommendation to keep? I provided evidence that the topic is notable. Thinker78 (talk) 07:23, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree that the sources you provided demonstrate that the subject has received substantial coverage in multiple secondary sources.
- The second article is from a local student newspaper, is about Cuseum and relies heavily on Ciecko's quotes. It's essentially the subject talking about his company - a primary source.
- The guardian article is an interview - a primary source.
- The Inc.com profile is a very low quality source in terms of depth and independence of coverage - a large portion of the text dedicated to him consists of his quotes. What little independent coverage there is suggests that he is a non-notable entrepreneur, e.g. "Employees: None; he works with 20 freelancers, many of them in Eastern Europe.".

- Strong delete the guidelines for notability of politicians are such that we scapt formulaic reliance on the general notability guidelines in these cases. Coverage has to be a step above minamalist GNG interpretations. Bergmanson's coverage is all the type of routine coverage that all candidates for every office get. Nothing is even remotely close to showing notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:17, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- First this !vote says we must raise the bar above GNG to argue for deletion, which implies that the topic meets GNG. Later the post says "Nothing remotely close to showing notability". Seems inconsistent.Given that this topic is to be found in five different other articles, this !vote doesn't adequately consider the WP:ATD. Unscintillating (talk) 14:43, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Losing candidate with only routine coverage. Such politicians are generally deleted per WP:NPOL unless significant multiple sources can help them pass GNG. That is not the case here.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 18:02, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- The point of the reply that it is possible to find relevance at the event notability guideline doesn't mean that the !voter has done so. Unscintillating (talk) 19:13, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- As has been pointed out to you approximately 680 billion times since you first attempted this argument, WP:ROUTINE does not only address the notability of things that ARE events, but also explicitly states that it also addresses the standalone notability of PEOPLE involved IN events. Bearcat (talk) 05:57, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- 680 billion is an exaggeration that says you don't expect yourself to be taken literally. Notability generally applies to entire articles. Unscintillating (talk) 13:08, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, and what we're talking about here is an entire article whose notability is in question — so I fail to see how "notability generally applies to entire articles" is a germane response in a discussion where nobody ever said otherwise. Bearcat (talk) 03:51, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I found a previous discussion we had regarding a topic in Minnesota, and your WP:Notability (events) argument was to discount a wedding announcement in the NYT. If a !vote can't explain the relevance of WP:Notability (events); by inspection, people are not events. Unscintillating (talk) 22:53, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep or Merge to Mayors of Glen Ridge, New Jersey or Local government of Glen Ridge, New Jersey or Glen Ridge, New Jersey. Mayors are inherently part of a larger topic on Wikipedia, so Wikipedia's notability is never a threshold for inclusion given WP:SPINOUT and WP:ATD. Given additional reliable sources, being a losing candidate for a state-level office increases notability. Being a losing candidate for a state-level office is certainly not a gotcha that prevents editors of Glen Ridge, New Jersey from covering WP:DUE topics of Glen Ridge. A Wikipedia search on "Carl Bergmanson" shows that the topic is covered in five other articles. Unscintillating (talk) 21:06, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Neither being mayor of a small town nor being an unsuccessful candidate in a party primary passes WP:NPOL, and the sourcing here is not good enough to claim that he passes WP:GNG in lieu. There are six footnotes, of which one is a repetition of one of the other five — so there are really only five sources, of which one is a WordPress blog, one is his own self-published campaign website, and one is his small town's local pennysaver. None of the article's content or sourcing is enough to deem him notable. Bearcat (talk) 05:57, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
-
- This marks approximately the seven millionth time you've raised that argument, and the seven millionth time I've had to point out to you that the argument carries weight only insofar as you show the evidence that suitable notability-building sources actually do exist. It is not enough to say that we have to keep it because maybe suitable sources might exist somewhere even though you can't actually be arsed to look for them — the argument only counts for beans if you show some G.D. evidence. Bearcat (talk) 03:47, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- It actually is the seventh million time, I've been keeping count. Its annoying, isn't it. Unscintillating makes the same argument all the time. Following his logic absolutely nothing can be deleted because there might be sources out there somewhere to possibly merge the article into another article that may not even exist yet.--Rusf10 (talk) 04:04, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete does not meet WP:NPOL as a mayor of a small town or as an unsuccessful candidate in a party primary. Coverage is in passing and / or routine. Does not meet WP:ANYBIO / WP:GNG for lack of sufficient reliable, independent sources. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:11, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was merge to Powergaming. The discussion suggests that the other mentioned articles should be merged there also. Sandstein 10:20, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The first line of the article points out that this means essentially the same thing as: Munchkin (role-playing games), Powerleveling, Powergaming, Min-maxing, Twinking. No need to have so many articles about the same thing. This particular term doesn't seem to have independent coverage. Coin945 (talk) 02:04, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- I agree with a merge, but am wondering if multiples of the articles the nominator brings up couldn't be better merged together. Jclemens (talk) 05:29, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Maybe some of them - or all of them? - could actually be merged into the Optimization article? "Optimization" actually seems to be a pretty descriptive term for all of them, that I think an outside observer could understand, while all of the other terms seem to me like they would only really be immediately recognizable by a gamer. BOZ (talk) 17:14, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Powergaming. And, yes, most or all of the rest of these should also merge there, per WP:NOTDICT, WP:NEO, WP:POVFORK, etc. Powergaming is the broad, overarching term. "Optimization", even disambiguated with "games", "gaming", etc., would be a big FAIL when it comes to WP:PRECISE, since the term in that context is just as likely to refer to building and tweaking systems for optimal game-play performance. It an also refer to tweaking the game's own settings to best suit the hardware platform. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 14:25, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete -- barring some last-minute improvements that would demonstrate notability. Article lists no sources and no attempt has been made to provide references, if any are available in the first place. We should expect better of the encyclopedia.

- Comment As the game is extremely old, I doubt we will get any reliable secondary sources in the internet. BTW, this game has a prequel, Cyber Cross which is also a 2 line stub without any sources given. Ernestchuajiasheng (talk) 10:14, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see that this company is notable. I just pared down quite a bit of promotional content based on unreliable sources including WHIR, which seems to publish rehashed press releases. Nothing meeting WP:CORPDEPTH remained. There are also issues of spamming by editors associated with the company (including likely undisclosed paid editing); if the company were notable that could be fixed, but I don't think there is enough reliably-sourced information out there.

- Delete -- a directory listing on an unremarkable company just going about its business. No indications of notability or significance, and significant RS coverage not found. Such content belongs on the company website, not here. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:14, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
