The subject of this article does not have multiple reliable sources, demonstrating a lack significant coverage. As such the WP:GNG is not met. Miss Israel itself is certainly notable, however the subject of this article does not inherit that notability as an associate. I hence propose this article be deleted. There is already a list of 'Miss Israel' and this event is included in that list. Most years do not have their own stand-alone article, and there is nothing about the subject of this article making it sufficiently notable for it's own page, especially because the main information in this article is already included in the Miss Israel list.

  • Neutral comment The current pageant deletion strategy is instead of a bulk nom that'll get called out for lack of WP:BEFORE, they tend to bring one random year up for nomination and then if successful, then build a bulk nom with the rationale '1969 was deleted, so now we can delete the rest', thinking we'll forget this is also a solid AfD rationale/result...

Comment @Pburka: and @Deathlibrarian: Honestly, such a fair question. As a newcomer I do a lot of 'suggested edit' tasks. When I come across pages I think meet criteria for deletion, I nom. I did not nominate the other pages because this is the one which came across. Happy for the others to be nominated also, if there is no sigcov then they should just remain in the list and not have their own article. I may not have gone about this properly - ought I have nominated all of them together in a group? Is that allowed? I do not want to be seen as a newcomer who just floods AFD with too many noms.Such-change47 (talk) 13:28, 28 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Comment @Deathlibrarian: Agreed; the entire deletion pattern of pageant articles under a claim of GNG not being met has been sketchy for years, which is why I try to push against it (and a rd at least allows for the ability to still add sources, return it as a separate article, but if it can't, keep the article in history rather than be deleted). The deletionist targeting of media mainly featuring women (lately seeming to also encompass every made-for-TV film in the '90s and '00s, along with Hallmark Channel films) is something I'm very uncomfortable with, when we have a lot of bad made-for-DVD (now streaming) action films that are only notable for paying off has-been actor's mortgages rather than ever being watched outside of a small critic base that's like 'yes, this is bad, a yule log has more entertainment', yet somehow pass WP:N because of the has-been actor...while we delete women-led films because a deletionist seems embarrassed to type in 'Danielle Steele's (novel title)' in Google.</rant>Nate (chatter) 02:38, 28 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Going by the article creator's talk page, it looked like they had good intentions, but were chased of by what I consider hostile and unhelpful scolds and very unhelpful template warnings, along with en bloc PRODs.

The result was speedy delete per CSD G4. The criteria is substantially the same, which has been met, in my opinion. While there were changes, on the whole, the conditions have not changed since the first AfD, and as I'm the first person with access to the deleted version of the article to review the CSD, in my judgement it is appropriate to delete it under G4 rather than to let let the AfD run its course, especially as one of the participants in the AfD has suggested that.

This page was put up for speedy delete, but as it was put up for speedy delete a few months ago, and removed by an admin on the grounds that the article was improved with new sources it was removed, I contested and removed the tag. Also, at the risk of a potential edit war with the speedy delete proposer, I am putting this up for AfD myself as this should be the process used. In addition, upon reviewing the page in question I can't quite tell if the notability is established or not, but I lean to no. I'm not well versed in Music topics so I am not the best to resolutely determine this. However, the notability is shakey and uncertain enough for me to feel an AfD is valid. This is also the second AfD for this page, the first of which can be found here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kollision (1st nomination), which resulted in a delete vote in 2019. It was remade by the same person --Tautomers(T C) 23:36, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Comment the core basis of my rationale is that the speedy delete proposal several months back was declined by an admin (see the articles edit history), and on a glance at the article and the sources, it did not seem obvious to me that a speedy deletion, nor a prod would have been valid. My appologies if I made a mistake in judgement, but it felt too hasty, and the subsequent reapplication of the speedy delete tag aggressive. --Tautomers(T C) 00:25, 24 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Unnecessary articles of alleged events sourced by two self-published spreadsheets: (1) a victim list spreadsheet on tghat blog, and (2) a victim list spreadsheet at the end of a document self-published on ResearchGate. As standalone articles, none of them pass WP:NEVENT or WP:GNG, primarily because the events cannot be verified with any reliable sources. Other content in these articles is COATRACK, copypasta'd to each to fill them out and make them appear notable. These 12 orphan articles are part of a series of 106 almost-identical articles created by a now-blocked sockpuppet and were the subject of a prior AfD which was closed as "procedural keep" because there were too many articles bundled together for other editors to be able to effectively evaluate them at AfD.

I find zero indication that there is any reliable independent sourcing of the oars. Almost everything here is sourced to primary sources and commercial sites for purchasing the oars. Of the few exceptions, row2k doesn't mention Concept2, the Rowing Biomechanics Newsletter is an amateur publication with (as far as I can tell) no peer reviewing, and Rowing in Motion mentions Concept2's corporate method of measuring oar stiffness. None of it constitutes significant coverage of the oars.

IMO it's not suitable as a merge or redirect to the company article at Concept2, because it's such an unlikely search term and there's no sourcing to support the inclusion of any of this content in that article. ♠PMC(talk) 20:01, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Polecat Landing, South Carolina[edit]

Topographic maps here show a point where the road goes down to the river in the middle of a swamp, which is confirmed by searching elsewhere. Newspapers.com has about a half-dozen passing mentions, none of which contribute to WP:GNG and which generally confirm that this is a river landing. Best I can find elsewhere is a passing mention in Horry County, South Carolina, 1730-1993 in a sentence listing river landings, as well as a trivial appearance in a blog listing of "25 Unusual South Carolina Place Names". River landings don't get the WP:GEOLAND auto-pass, and nothing I found constitutes significant coverage per the GNG.

Comment - while one map I saw has the label "Cartwheel Landing" here, my searching for this site made it pretty clear that Cartwheel Landing is a separate location, as Polecat and Cartwheel appear in lists separately. Hog Farm Talk 18:52, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Ktin, Thanks for the mention. I remember accepting this from a AfC draft because then I thought that this is a borderline notability case. Based on the reliable sources we have, I don't think the subject tends to meet WP:GNG and his book could possibly help him meet any subjective criteria. I need some time to relook.

That would depend on context. For example, anyone can call Muhammad Ali as one of the greatest boxer, and that won't be counted as puffery but calling this non-notable author as among greatest or remark his works to be legendary would reek of fluffy language that is far from expectations we have built for independent sources. Dear Debasish (talk) 05:45, 27 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
"Sources mentioning Ali as the greatest boxer is equal to sources saying a notable Islamic scholar as legendary & great". Stating that sources are "puffery" only because you think someone is clear cut non notable because he has not been covered very much online is explicit bias. If Ali is seen as a legend, Azmi is seen as a legend to those who have discussed him. As Ktin said, this should be seen as a remark on the state of journalism. Anyways, I'll post my analysis of the native sources discussing Azmi in a day or two. Thanks ─ The Aafī (talk) 08:30, 27 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Well. There are several examples of this. Irfan Siddiqui in his article From Bilariaganj to the Jannat al-Baqi (translated title) mentions that Azmi's work Al-Jamiul Kamil is undoubtedly the largest collection of sound ahadith throughout the Islamic history. Irfan is a well known columnist and journalist from Pakistan and the article appeared in the Daily Jang (for the newspaper piece I've offline), though I've its reference from the Urdu Digest Journal. Indian Islamic scholar Razi ul Islam Nadwi considers him a famous muhaddith and states that Azmi all alone did such a work which actually research academies do with a big team of researchers "with having several facilities". There are several offline sources that indicate Azmi's works being appreciated by Islamic scholars. Besides what we have online, there's one book in Urdu entitled The Spiritual and Academic Journey from the Ganges to the Zamzam (translated title) which is over 216 pages and discusses Azmi significantly. ─ The Aafī (talk) 06:14, 28 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I didn't say "it is just a mention". Those are separate articles that significantly discuss Azmi. I just quoted few statements. Apologies if you misunderstood. I cannot supply translations of each and every work that discusses Azmi in Urdu. However, from Nadwi's article, I am trying to roughly state the following excerpt:
One of his uniqueness was that he was not a Muslim by birth, but he belonged to a Hindu family in Bilaria Ganj town of Azamgarh district. He has done a great job of teaching and writing in the field, he alone has done such a great job that academies have to do with abundant facilities and a large team of researchers. Irfan Siddiqui's detailed article is also helpful.
To the best of my experience with Islamic biographies, he passes WP:GNG for 1: there's a 216 pages book by Khalid Azmi published from New Delhi that significantly covers his life and works. 2: There are several significant articles on his life & works by Irfan Siddiqui & Islamic scholar Razi ul Islam Nadwi and several others.

Because if we depend on them then it won't be possible to write "non-promotional articles that fairly portray the subject" as required by WP:INDEPENDENT. They are at by large puff pieces as already explained above. By the language that these sources have used, one can identify that they are not neutral.

Gestapo–NKVD conferences[edit]

Gestapo–NKVD conferences (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD |)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I nominate this article for deletion. It's a long-surviving fringe theory article (essentially a historical myth akin to claims that Hitler escaped from Berlin or that Beria and Himmler met in 1940 etc.). It was created in 2007 by User:Tymek. It's about rumours and hearsay about events that almost certainly didn't take place. It's one of the excamples of Polish nationalist history fiction posted here on Wikipedia (cf. this hoax that staid here for 15 years). The issue has been raised several times by non-prominent users/IPs at talk (several attempts: [8]; [9]); to no avail.

When it was created in 2007, the article had no inline references but a number of obscure websites added as sources. Back then Wikipedia sourcing policies were not rigorous enough. Now they theoretically are. The only things that have changed wrt this "article", however, have been as follows:

1) a bunch of academic nobodys (almost all are Polish) have been inserted as "sources"; however, they just mention the alleged events passing by without any substantiation. A clear violation of WP:REDFLAG. For such exceptional claims that the article presents as facts here, exceptionally good sources would be warranted. This is not the case in the current article;

2) the article has been turned into a WP:COATRACK in a sneaky way so as to give legitimacy to the fringe views (supposed "common conferences of Gestapo and NKVD" held in occupied Poland) - so they've added stuff about Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, the German–Soviet military parade in Brest-Litovsk, a Nazi propaganda poster on German Heim ins Reich policy), i.e. things that did take place and are all sufficiently covered in relevant articles.

The bottom line: this article has been created to advance a theory that Gestapo and NKVD held a series of conferences (even dates are provided!) in 1940 in occupied Poland. This theory has never found ANY serious academic support. Robert Conquest once picked it up and mentioned it but he never returned to this. To my knowledge, not a single notable scholar has published an article, book what ever, on these alleged events. It is WP:FRINGE and has nothing to do in an encyclopedia.
The article as it stands also constitutes an egregious violation of WP:NPOV, because it deliberately misinforms the readers by selling this fringe view as certified facts. The results are very sad, because numerous websites have indeed picked up this fake from Wikipedia and took it seriously and so this theory has been circulating in the Internet for more than a decade [10], [11], [12]. And for this fact we have to thank our Team Poland and the incompetence of the admins (e.g. rather than intervening to remove this stuff prominent admins showed up to shoot a messanger half a year ago [13], [14]).PjN 17:46, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Post scriptum - it is an ominous sign that the article was DYKed back in 2007: "A fact from Gestapo–NKVD conferences appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 24 July 2007. The text of the entry was as follows: Did you know... that the Gestapo and NKVD convened four conferences discussing the elimination of the Polish resistance movement?" - but this was so many years ago and the project has been constantly progressing over all these years. Yet the fact remains that some topic areas are not properly supervised by competent people.PjN 20:31, 23 December 2021 (UTC) strike sock - Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/MiacekReply[reply]

The way things stand, there's nothing to "improve": the article should be written from scratch, in case real sources would be found. But what are the odds? Let me quote the article:

"The best known conference took place in Zakopane,[13] in the villa "Pan Tadeusz", located at the Droga do Białego street close to the Dolina Białego valley. The German side was represented by Adolf Eichmann. The Soviet delegation was headed by Grigoriy Litvinov."

You genuinely believe all these scholars who have written books on this criminal could have missed such an important fact as Adolf Eichmann leading a German delegation in a conference with NKVD representatives in 1940?
You've had 14 years to write a real article there! You cannot improve an article where not a SINGLE basic fact is supported by a reliable source. Obviously I did search for German and Russian sources: there was nothing really. PjN 18:51, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
strike sock -Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/MiacekReply[reply]
Then it seems likely the topic is primarily covered within Polish histiography. The article may contain errors, and perhaps even newer historiography is queestioning what was discussed in these conferences or maybe even if they happened, but the source cited does suggest that they have been a subject of academic discourse, and exist as as a topic of interest. I am not seeing a case for a TNT approach, just a copyedit. A major one, perhaps, but I am not convinced there's nothing left to salvage here.

Hey Marek, feel free to launch an SPI. You know just as well as I do that Checkusers cannot verify my alleged connection to Miacek because this user has not been active in any Wiki project for several years by now. But you'll surely find a way to get me banned by hook or by crook (like Potugin whom you mentioned got banned for "tendentious editing" 2 hours after he criticized you a bit. Amusing. So it's kinda dangerous not only to sock but just to criticize you).
Anyway, back to the real issue: you just posted the string "NKVD Gestapo zakopane" on Google Books and got a number of hits (books listed on that site are usually serious stuff indeed). But that's exactly what I was pointing out: people have uncritically been repeating rumours. It's what I called "passing-by mentions". You won't find a single source that actually gives any information on these events nor cites primary sources.

The question was not "notability" per se. I mean yeah, hoaxes and refuted theories, too, can have notability. If they're notorious enough. The issues were WP:V, WP:NPOV and other core policies. I have Jstor access so I skimmed through the first article you provided: Andrzej Toczewski, “Cooperation between the Soviet Union and the Third Reich in Exchanges of Polish Population and Prisoners of War in the Years 1939–1941 - The Polish Review, Vol. 37, No. 2 (1992), pp. 209-215. It was mostly about the population transfers between Germany and the USSR which is an interesting and valid topic on its own.
However, the article did exactly what I told you all at the very beginning: it only repeated the theory that such conferences took place "from March 1940 in Cracow and Zakopane", with a reference to Losy Polaków w ZSRR w latach 1939-1986 , London, 1987 and Los Polaków w niewoli sowieckiej, 1939-1956, London, 1956. A one meager paragraph with no details, and links to books that by now are completely outdated! And what is more embarassing for the promoters of this story on Wikipedia: as you see the dates of the alleged conferences categorically don't match (27 September 1939 in Brześć[1]October 1939 in Lwów[2]November 1939 in Przemyśl[1]6–7 December 1939 in Kraków[3]8–9 December 1939 in Zakopane[3]20 February 1940 in Zakopane [1]March 1940 in Kraków[4])!
To sum up: a number of Polish figures began spreading rumours after the War about a series of secret conferences of Gestapo/NKVD having taken place in the occupied Poland. The story never got particularly elaborate, and it contains numerous contradictions (check the article history and alleged participants: the notorious Latvian Bolshevik Teodors Eihmans was already shot in 1938, the absurdity of presuming Maksim Litvinov's participation, Adolf Eichman's participation etc.). Some authors indeed kept (and keep) reporting (parroting) the story, but none of the sources provided stands to scrutiny.
Feel free to start an article on Gestapo–NKVD collaboration though because Stalin indeed had German communists handed over to the Gestapo, I think even NKVD dossiers were handed over to the Germans. This has credible eyewitness accounts. PjN 00:51, 24 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I certainly do hope you are not Miacek, the Miacek I knew was a valued contributor before going off-piste after suffering some personal issues, according to what I read on talk. I hope he recovers and comes back soon. You need a reliable source to say these conferences were a hoax (I don't know how prisoner exchanges would have been facilitated without the Gestapo and NKVD having a conference). With regard to "no documentary evidence has been found to date", that doesn't mean it was a hoax. After all, the Soviet did claim the M-R secret protocols never existed until the Soviet version was released from the Soviet archives in 1980's. Discounting a source on the basis that author is Polish seems kind of racist to me. --Nug (talk) 01:17, 24 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
No, I'm not Miacek, don't worry, though I have no way to prove my innocence, so to say. But I don't get your other points: I'm not saying it's necessarily a "hoax". I was saying this is all rumours, speculations and hearsay and a scholar you linked to admitted no documentary evidence has been found. Btw, I'd appreciate if you didn't fall to the level of a Volunteer Marek and play with the ethnicity/race card: I did not discard anyone "on the basis that author is Polish". I can read basic Polish and tell which source makes sense. I only discarded these authors because they did not qualify as reliable for our purpose. Once again, I'd encourage you to start articles on valid topics such as German-Soviet population transfers and the (real) Gestapo-NKVD collaboration, if you can find decent sources. As I said, I do remember reading about a German (likely German-Jewish) emigre to the USSR who was handed over to the Nazis along with the NKVD dossiers. The article was either in German or Russian.

I question the utility of this list. It is essentially an expanded trivia item - "which animal has the most bones?" - that currently is set up as a hodgepodge of random taxonomic levels. Even if constrained to, say, families or orders (and accepting the vast variability that exists at those levels - basically giving the mean), this will be a rather pointless list.

Despite playing one minute of professional league football almost 10 years ago, there seems to be very little evidence of a WP:GNG pass, which would be required if the article is to be kept. See recent AfDs for Márk Kónya and Tamás Csepregi for this consensus. Google News and a Hungarian source search have a few hits but none of the coverage is in any significant depth at all. He, for example, gets passing mentions in Nemzeti Sport but this clearly doesn't count towards notability in any way. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 17:27, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I believe this article does not meet the notability criteria and is original work. Only two sources are linked. One is a site maintained by a former member of this theatre, the other site is maintained by the writer of the article. The first site was in the past hosted at http://www.tonyward.org.uk/genesistheatre/, which is the site of the Wikipedia writer. I have searched for other sources, but have not found them. The writing does not meet the quality standards of Wikipedia. To select a few quotes "For any further information contact Chris Dumigan", "Chris Dumigan still lives in the Greater Manchester area as do several other former members and there are regular reunions", "The original musicals Stag and Marilyn are the ones discussed most often by former members". These quotes further show that this is original work. Finally, the lack of sources also creates problems with WP:BLP. Dajasj (talk) 13:07, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

There are other sources - please see the news article from the Manchester Evening News. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:New-article.jpg

The linked website includes biographies from 7 former members (Chris Dumigan, Chris Fogg, Guy Taylor, Ally Davis, Anita King, Alan Ratcliff) and numerous pictures. The objection that there are no sources is clearly false. A cursory glance at genesistheatre.co.uk will show many photographs of people and show programmes i.e. multiple sources.

The writing on the wikipedia article is is the first hand accounts of the aforementioned people.

The objection about original work is nonsensical - there are many wikipedia articles about original music and theatre productions very likely by people who have also met the original artists.

The objection to the quality standards is also not applicable "For any further information contact Chris Dumigan" is entirely appropriate given that the group ended in the early 1980's There has been interest on BBC radio and people are keen to know more and/or keep in contact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TonyGWard (talkcontribs) 14:06, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The result was redirect to Texas secession movements#Texas Nationalist Movement. After discounting the WP:SPAs and the people apparently canvassed to this discussion, there are very few (experienced) Wikipedia editors who believe that this political activist is notable as per our criteria at WP:GNG, despite this discussion itself receiving local media coverage. But as has been pointed out redirecting the name to the article where his group is covered is a reasonable WP:ATD. Sandstein 12:48, 30 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I am nominating this article for a few reasons:

  1. This article appears to have been created solely for the purpose of promoting the band. The article lists a member of the band as Richard Bowers and I notice the article's creator is Richbo82 who has only ever created this particular article and no other edits made. I think this backs up my view that the page is promotional. It would need to be fundamentally rewritten to serve as an encyclopaedic rather than an advertisement.
  2. Does not satisfy WP:GNG as the band is not subject to multiple, non-trivial sources) per WP:BAND.
  3. Ultimately, a lack of notability and the promotional nature of the article leads me to conclude it is not suitable for Wikipedia as Wikipedia is not a place for promotion and its contents are not verifiable. Such-change47 (talk) 08:44, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Maybe WP:BASIC, but, it would have to be a lot and not primary sources (i.e. concert promotions in a local newspaper unless it's a big feature). If you can present more sourcing, I'm all ears (or eyes..) Missvain (talk) 18:55, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Missvain: I do take your point, but I am seeing what I believe to be sufficient coverage to justify some degree of notability. Some is relatively significant coverage. For instance, something more recent is this article from a 2008 edition and this article from a 2009 edition of Albuquerque Journal (New Mexico's largest newspaper). I don't know if you have a newspapers.com subscription, but I can see enough results on there alone, including the clippings I have taken and the mentions from Aoziwe above that suggest this person can pass WP:GNG, or definitely at least WP:BASIC, as you point out.

Bungle - I'm actually embarrassed. I do have subscription at newspapers.com and for some stupid reason I did not even use it when I was reviewing her article. I apologize for you doing the grunt work and my amateur move at nominating this. It's been a week and I've had a head cold, so I'm blaming my cold medicine. I'm going to withdraw.

Doesn't seem to pass WP:GNG. I couldn't find any hits in Google News, Archive.org's books, or Newspapers.com.

Doesn't seem to meet WP:GNG or WP:NMUSIC notability. Honestly, the best sources I could find (even with a BEFORE) were the ones already in the article - and those sources are mainly a mix of Discogs, LinkedIn, and non-independent announcements/press releases.

The sources in the article that look the best at first glance are ivibes (which seems to be a forum), and Beatsmedia (whose blog-like post is tagged as "Promos"), so it doesn't seem like there's much here. - Whisperjanes (talk) 06:47, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Unfortunately I was not able to locate any in-depth sources about this dish under this name or the Spanish name huevos a la flamenca. Everything that came up was recipe sites and cooking blogs, no actual discussion of the dish's history or development or the like. The es.wiki article has references, but they're all cookbooks, and a recipe is a primary source, not coverage of a topic.

This article was created on March 12, 2020. Needless to say, we've gained a bit of additional perspective since then, and at this point it simply does not make sense to have an article with such an absurdly large scope any more than it would to have an article on List of events in 2018.

Advertisement and fails WP:GNG and WP:NWEB. Pretty much all primary sources and self reporting, no reliable sources available.

Firstly, why would Fosshost advertise, since they're exclusively an open source project providing services to other foss projects, there is no commercial intent or gain for them having a page on wikipedia. The partnership with freenode was notable and caused significant interest from a large number of people, not to mention that they received support from another notable person which has an established page on wikipedia that has been on the wiki since March 2020 (which isn't even addressed in the page).

Kabzaa

This is an unreleased film that has no references and does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines. A draft version, Draft:Kabzaa (2022 film), also exists. It appears that the originator is trying to game the system by making it impossible to move this stub into draft space. The draft has 13 references, and an assessment of those references will be provided later, but this should be deleted both as failing notability and as failing verifiability.

There is also history at Draft:Kabzaa(2022film), showing that the draft was declined twice. The draft should be retained, because the film will probably be notable when it is released. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:35, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I consider this as significant coverage as the sources I found are notable and verifiable. As such this article is likely to meet WP:GNG. Per WP:NFF the reliable sources appear to indicate principal photography has commenced, given that a well known Bollywood actor is confirmed as being on set. As such, the film meets the general principles set out in WP:NFILM given its sources, and hence satisfies the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article. Granted, the article is new and its creator should focus on expanding it as time goes on. Such-change47 (talk) 03:28, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
NFF does not mean that the moment principal photography has commenced, every film is automatically entitled to keep an article forever. That applies only to extremely high profile films such as the Marvel franchise, that get a lot of WP:GNG-worthy coverage during the production process, and not just to every single film that exists. The primary notability criteria at WP:NFO are the ones that apply to all films, and you have not demonstrated that this film passes NFO. Bearcat (talk) 17:14, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Delete - Changing my vote based on what @Bearcat: said. Not changing merely because someone else disagreed, but because I appear to not have made as strong a case as I thought.

To be frank, I haven't been much involved with the article lately, and do find a lot of statements without citation. But they could be edited out if necessary.

People do not pass ANYBIO by virtue of working with people, or in bands, that won awards — Levine himself has to be the nominee before an award might potentially pass ANYBIO. Just happening to be in a band that was nominated as a band, or working with somebody else who got nominated for stuff where Levine himself was not personally named as a co-nominee, does not secure passage of ANYBIO at all. Only awards where Levine was personally the nominee, in his own right and not just by indirect association, do that. Bearcat (talk) 17:01, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This is a procedural nomination following Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 November 28#Samsung SGH-A167. The article is about a model of phone. It was created in 2010, and now – eleven years later – its creator and only substantial contributor believes it's not notable and would like it deleted. There were no notability-based objections to this, but nevertheless several editors did not favour WP:G7 deletion. There was one suggestion to merge the article (along with other articles on non-notable Samsung phones) into a list, partly so that ((R from file metadata link))s (like the one here) could continue working. – Uanfala (talk) 00:59, 23 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Can you mention how indepth those sources are? The sources I can access have trivial coverage. SL93 (talk) 19:44, 10 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I’d say limited rather than trivial. The issue is that these movements are very difficult to document and make in depth studies on since they are fugitive and transient in their make up and participation even if the groups last many decades. However I would maintain that the wide coverage, journals, news, magazines, books and blogs as well as the influence on other movements eg the refugee caravans and the Oranienplatz occupations, does show the significance and notability of the VRF without doubt.

u need to download the whole pdf for "this edit". on p 218 u will see:

"In the 1990s, groups of non-citizens organized themselves in shared accommodation, in particular in Eastern Germany. For example, the Voice Refugee Forum was founded in 1994 in a camp in Thuringia (Odugbesan & Schwiertz, 2018). In the 2000s, the occupation of Oranienplatz (O-platz), a square in Berlin, which non-citizens activists transformed into a protest camp, provided visibility for their struggles against border regimes (Landry, 2015; Langa, 2015; Bhimji, 2016)."

That would require the films to be notable. In A Tale of Two Cities, she has about 30 seconds of screen time, about five of which she's walking away from the camera, and the rest she lies limp in her parents' arms. That certainly doesn't qualify. She had significant screentime role in Playmates, moderate screentime in In Northern Forests and The Diver, and the rest of her filmography doesn't seem to be available online (and the three mentioned were extremely simple roles, even for a child actor of the time). I don't see indications that any of those, or the 11 shorts not mentioned, are WP:NFILM-worthy. Star Garnet (talk) 08:12, 19 December 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This article is a failure of WP:NOTDICT and does not meet WP:WORDISSUBJECT. If the topic is the Spanish word, there is no evidence of significant coverage in non-dictionary sources. If the topic is the false friend with the English word "embarrassed", I do not find significant coverage of that either (besides some passing mentions in listicles and language learning books).

  • You may well be, but from my viewpoint, I'm sure you would understand, it would seem unlikely there would be a longstanding page on a country's wikipedia about a made up hoax dialect/language that didn't exist... unless no one reads/vandal patrols Norwegian Wikipedia?
