The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was keep. I almost relisted this as the idea of redirection has been mentioned but not thoroughly discussed, but it seems clear consensus favors keeping this in some form, so the deletion discussion is pretty much over. Discussion of whether to redirect can and should continue on the article's talk page. Beeblebrox (talk) 17:24, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:MUSICBIO. Eliminated from The X Factor. She is a POTENTIAL Disney artist. But IF and UNTIL that happens, doesn't seem that this girl rates an article. Safiel (talk) 23:55, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep There are confirmed reports Rachel Crow will have a career with Disney / Nickleodeon productions very soon. Almost all American Idol contestants have pages while they are competing. I think The X Factor carries equal weight to American Idol, so contestants in X Factor should all have, in principle, pages of their own. werldwayd (talk) 00:04, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Changing vote to keep per sources found.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 10:49, 28 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]
  • Thanks for the information. I was speaking mostly anecdotally and I should have checked my "facts". However, after reading the Book reviews section of our article on PW, it is probably not the best source to establish notability for a book. For example, the reviews are anonymous and short (as is the one for this book) - hardly in-depth. The reviewers are paid a small fee to produce a review. One reviewer said her reviews were altered for mysterious reasons. I would give a PW review little weight.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:52, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Without addressing your sillier points, I would just say that sometimes the spirit and/or the letter of WP:BLPREMOVE requires removal first and discussion after. By the way, has anyone ever taken traditio.com to WP:RSN?--Bbb23 (talk) 16:34, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • It probably needs to go there, the site is little more than a glorified blog, hosted by a person claiming to be a priest and posting anonymosly as "Father Moderator". I suppose it could be reliable when discussing antisemitism among sedevacantists or things of that nature.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 18:14, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. The policy Mike is talking about is WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. While there are enough sources to make me change my vote from redirect, saying that things should be kept because worse articles exist or because it's important (WP:ITSIMPORTANT) aren't good arguments for it to be kept. Odds are that this will be kept, but I want you to understand that you need to back up your opinion with things along the lines of WP:NBOOK. Things aren't decided on a vote, but on the strengths of the arguments given. I've seen pages deleted with just one "delete" opinion and pages kept on that same premise, so believe me when I say that the amount of opinions in either direction does not sway the admins.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 10:49, 28 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]

Ahah -- so it does. I stand corrected. It is not in the lead, but there it is, 2 paras prior to "MAC achieves through its dynamic, internationally experienced personnel... a blend of highly qualified foreign nationals and Egyptians, provide stellar education for students", and 2 before "The only downside to the school's system is the fact that the school itself is quite suffocating, for it barely holds more than two grades in the courtyard. The school is so small that the student body is too big to fit in the courtyard during break time, let alone do any extra curricular activities due to lack of space."

Non-notable mixed martial arts event. No significant coverage or lasting historical significance. Primary results reporting. References are not from independent sources. Osubuckeyeguy (talk) 21:35, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Martial arts-related deletion discussions. Osubuckeyeguy (talk) 21:37, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"Significant coverage" - topic is covered in many articles, ranging from several general sports updates, to a detailed breakdown of the challenges and changes of putting on an MMA show in Ontario compared to other places. I, personally, am not sure what else should be added to the basic article to fulfill this criteria. As such, I think we are still debating whether this has been met satisfactorily, correct?
"Reliable" - Several major and independent articles provided, ranging from mainstream (TSN and Sportsnet) to independent MMA sites. Not sure if this was a point of debate.
"Sources" - was once a point. Are we still hoping to collect a greater variety of articles on this event to meet this criteria?
"Independent of the subject" - Creator of article made an error here in using a promoter (and host venue) of the event as sources. Should be removed. Other sources are independent of the subject itself (though they focus on Canadian sports).
"Presumed" - I don't believe there is any controversy regarding this point, but correct me if I am wrong. Stynn (talk) 20:13, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Being the first event in Ontario makes this interesting, but not inherently notable. This event featured only a handful of notable fighters and the page, as it currently exists, primarily reports match results, which are just routine sports information. Information about this event could certainly be added to Mixed Martial Arts in Ontario; the event itself, though, does not warrant its own page. Otherwise, we would have a page for the "first" sporting event of every kind in every country, state, and province. There does not appear to be significant independent coverage that establishes the notability of this event - just a handful of reports that the event happened and the results. There are a few articles I found in the London Free Press, but little information outside of Ontario to establish more than local significance. Osubuckeyeguy (talk) 21:04, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, Osubuckeyeguy I was using the "keep" thing more to signify "what" i was arguing, moreso than as a vote itself. Didn't realize it was a signifier of a vote.

RE: "Otherwise, we would have a page for the "first" sporting event of every kind in every country, state, and province." - Why is that a problem? I would think people living in a state would be interested in the information about the whens, wheres, whys and whos regarding their first MMA event. Especially somewhere like Ontario and New York, where citizens have been trying to get MMA sanctioned for years. But generally speaking, even in smaller places, isn't that what an encyclopedia is for? Mass-information? The only reason I made this page in the first place was because multiple sources (wikipedia included) were claiming UFC 129 was the first MMA event in Ontario, which was simply incorrect. There was no major, central resource for finding information about this event. And as an MMA researcher, radio host, and columnist, I find wikipedia is an excellent starting point for this type of miscellaneous information, and excluding significant firsts seems somewhat counter-productive to maintaining and cataloguing historical firsts. Regardless of who is or was on it, I would find it valuable to have a page with detailed information on the first MMA event in Brazil, California, New York, etc, and I am sure many others would too. These are key changes for the growth of MMA, and since MMA is still developing, it's basically a history that we are writing now, on Wikipedia. This is why I think it's important to catalogue it correctly, and not just give it a semi-mention on some partially unrelated page. Stynn (talk)

  • Notability is a matter of sources not status. It is our policy that " there is no practical limit to the number of topics Wikipedia can cover" and so the number 17,000 has no significance here. Warden (talk) 11:27, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment:Indeed, the 17,000 number is irrelevant IF all 17,000 subjects are notable for some reason in their own right. The consensus in the past has been that primary schools are not inherently notable. That means that for the article to stay, there must a claim made as to why this school is notable. This article makes no claim as to why this primary school is, in terms of notability, any different to any one of the 17,000 other primary schools in the UK (alone - never mind the rest of the world).
Your reliable source is from Ofsted. Ofsted, is a statutory authority charged with inspecting standards at every school in England from nursery upwards. There will be one of these documents for every single establishment. The conclusion of your argument is thus that, every single school in England is automatically notable because Ofsted inspects it. In reality, the inspection report you reference does little more than a) confirm this school exists b) in this particular case, tells us its performance - as assessed at its last 3-yearly inspection - is above average.
If you can find a reason that this school is truly notable, I'll strike my delete. For example, does the school have any historical significance? Is the school building even listed? - Although there are almost 400,000 Grade II listed buildings, I would consider this a different matter as listing is an expert recognition of a building's significance compared to other buildings. Compare that with an Ofsted inspection report which is a statutory document produced by virtue of the mere existence of a school. Pit-yacker (talk) 20:20, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, all such English schools are notable because they will all have such detailed reports created by an independent, reliable authority. You seem to misunderstand the meaning of notability. Per the relevant guideline, this does not require fame or importance. What the word notability means here is just that the topic has been noticed — that some independent, professional authors have taken the trouble to write about the topic. The reason for this is that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and this word means that we cover the full circle of knowledge. We are not the Guinness Book of Records, only looking for superlatives. We are not Ripley's Believe It or Not! looking only for novelties and the bizarre. We aim to be to the "sum of the world's knowledge" and that means all noted topics not just an arbitrary fraction. Warden (talk) 20:50, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Your test for notability is that "some independent, professional authors have taken the trouble to write about the topic." But that's not the test here at WP, because routine, matter-of-course coverage which every entity of a certain type gets no matter what, doesn't count. I suggest you modify your test to read: "some independent, professional authors -- who are not required to write about the particular topic as a matter of course -- have chosen to take the trouble to write about the topic, in preference to the many other topics they might have chosen but did not." EEng (talk) 23:36, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No, you are quite mistaken. If all entities of a certain type tend to have detailed sources then we will cover them all, not just a selected few. We therefore cover all elected politicians, all professional athletes, all human settlements, all chemicals, all species, all mathematical theorems, all battles, all universities, &c. As we certainly cover some schools, we should therefore cover all schools for which sources can be found. Like this one. Warden (talk) 14:42, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry, do you just make things up hoping people will believe them? You've been here plenty long enough to know that's not true. Give it up. You're making yourself look silly, you're wasting others' time, and you're not doing this school any favors by prolonging the discussion of just how unremarkable it really is. EEng (talk) 23:53, 29 December 2011 (UTC) P.S. "All mathematical theorems" -- really? Wow -- that's a lot of articles! Why, I hardly know how to begin enumerating them![reply]
Actually you are incorrect. For example, I have seen quite a number of articles for elected local councillors being deleted as non-notable. Politicians with articles are generally viewed as being notable because they have regular and non-trivial coverage in multiple sources, not because they have a birth certificate and appear in the census. I dare say the same applies to all the other topics you identify. For example, a mathematical theorem (or theory of any kind) becomes notable because it is mentioned in peer reviewed publications. Believe me, there is an absolute wasteland of discarded and/or discredited research in the literature that does not have or deserve an article. There is even more that didn't get as far as publication. Pit-yacker (talk) 15:28, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: A typical planning application generates many many more pages of reports. In this case a planning officer has "noticed" a planning application and has written a detailed report about the application and why (or why not) the development should be allowed to proceed. Generally speaking, these are also publicly available. By your logic these should be taken as meeting WP:GNG for the subject of the application. That means that we should have articles for every supermarket built in at least the last 30 years (Even better we can have an article on my local branch of ASDA opening 24hrs - because that required another application (and series of reports) to remove the original condition limiting it hours to 7am-9pm . Pit-yacker (talk) 01:55, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure to whose logic you're referring. My intent was to exclude routine reports and so on as significant coverage, trying to explain that in terms of Warden's idea. Looks like I left too many loopholes. EEng (talk) 13:59, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Per my comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cleves School, Weybridge. These sources are statutory inspection reports. Every single school in England has one of these as a product of three yearly government inspections of schools. Thus if notability of this school is determined by the existence of the above inspection report, the conclusion of this is that every single other school in England must also be automatically be notable. The existence of publicly available documentation generated at various levels of government related to a subject automatically granting notability is plain absurd. Virtually every major building project in the UK generates many more pages of planning documentation. Most of this is now publicly available online. Does that mean we have sufficient notability to start articles for every branch of Tesco built in the last 30 years?
  • The government sector accounts for nearly half the UK economy. If we eliminated the government activity on such grounds that it is mundane then this would leave a correspondingly large hole in our coverage of the country. But we are an encyclopedia and so are expected to cover everything; not just pop records and footballers. Warden (talk) 10:46, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say government reports are mundane. There is nothing wrong with using a routine government report as a reference, in an article where notability is already established. However,I can't see that a routine (generated by virtue of the subjects mere existence) government report can be used to establish such notability. As I have said, the logical conclusion of your position is that virtually every supermarket built in the UK is also notable by virtue of the fact that the planning process generated a number of hefty planning reports. Pit-yacker (talk) 11:57, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • A planning document isn't such a good source because, by its nature, it will predate construction and so won't have much to say about the life and history of the place once it is up and running. Anyway, List of shopping centres in the United Kingdom seems to have lots of red links so there's work to do there too. So many topics, so little time... Warden (talk) 12:13, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
In reality, the content of the report isn't much use here either. It does little more than confirm the existence of the school and perhaps at a stretch tells us that the school's performance is pretty average. Pit-yacker (talk) 01:46, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nonsense. The report covers the essential activities and facts about the school - this is its point and purpose. If you're not interested in the school and its performance then this will naturally seem rather dry. But in that case, you should move on to a topic which does interest you; not try to destroy this one because it bores you. Warden (talk)
I suggest incubation as a last resort (Alternatives to deletion). I am sure that this school is more notable than you think. The school naturally harbors soon-to-be pupils of the high-ranking Balcarras School.TDW 00:24, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The film hasn't entered production but it is still being made. It's not doing any harm there being an article on it, I keep checking up news for it and whenever I will see something new I will add it in. It can just patiently wait until there is more information. Or if there is a way (is there a way?) that the article won't be able to be seen by the public and the only people who can see it is people who have a registered account?

It could be moved to userspace (e.g. to User:Charlr6/Troll Hunter (2014 film)) for you to continue working on it or it could be incubated to allow wider input, but for the latter we would need to have a reasonable chance of it growing enough to return to mainspace within a few months. --Michig (talk) 08:47, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It would be easier to merge this to Like button, but I've started a merge proposal for that article due to my disagreeing with that article's outcome at it's deletion request.

Keep Seems like a perfectly valid concisely written article on a notable security exploit to me. I fail to see why some people have the urge to delete anything which can't be expanded to a multi-page piece. "Have they ever seen an actual paper encyclopaedia?", I wonder, most of their entries are even shorter our "stubs". This could be merged into Like button, but only if that would be kept as a separate article, while the nominator intend to also merge that particular article into Facebook. So, keep for now. —Ruud 12:30, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because the subject is notable and the content is neutral and notable.

New media dedicated to the collection and dissemination of objective information -- especially independent and professionally created news in this age of corporate dominated information -- deserves to be recognized.

Wikipedia does not keep things based on whether they have the potential to become a significant part of the state's culture; we keep things based on whether or not they already are a significant part of the culture — which we determine based on the presence or absence of real, reliable sources about the topic, not based on individual user manifestos.

I'm having some difficulty understanding why we kept this in 2006 when it was previously debated. This is a band that was never signed, the summit of their fame seems to have been a namecheck in the garage bands section of NME, there are no reliable independent sources and never have been, and they never made it out of their home county of Essex. They played mainly in youth clubs, it seems, and never made it small let alone big. They were active for less than two years: they rose and sank apparently without trace.

By Bumblefoot, do you mean this? Because he seems to be an independant artist who has had a few ensembles - he is probably notable, but the individual ensembles are not. As for Burnt Sugar, the article we have on it says the group has a fluid membership and as many as 40 have been in the group. I do not believe that being in such a group would establish notability for the individual. For criteria 1 and 4, could you provide such reliable sources for us? ItsZippy (talkcontributions) 10:22, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't realize this was going to be an ongoing discussion requiring my input - I don't get to sit down at this site that often. Re: Bumblefoot, before Ron Thal took that as his name, it referred to the band - this was about 10 years ago when she was a full time member. I can't find references for this change, as his blog doesn't seem to be around, but if anyone else can find it I'd appreciate that (it should be in his main page too!). I've added a bunch of other references to the article as I have time to find them. Re: "could you provide such reliable sources for us?", I'm a bit confused - I thought wikipedia was a collaborative process. Who is the "us" you refer to, that apparently does not include myself? (I'm not sure I'll be able to respond to this in a timely matter but I will see it eventually. Feel free to also follow up on the talk page here or my talk page. Thanks.)

No evidence Khan has been subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works in reliable independent sources, or otherwise meets the criteria for WP:Notability. (The article's sole reference is one "about the author" sentence, which is both trivial and not independent.) Article flagged for notability since November 2007. Propose Delete.

Kingdom of Alba Longa[edit]

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

A naïve article, not separating fact from fiction. I marked this for speedy A10, as an inferior duplicate of Latin kings of Alba Longa, but it was challenged as "The article Alba Longa is about the ancient city of Alba Longa. The Kingdom of Alba Longa had its capital in the city of Alba Longa but spread to take over other cities. Just as the Roman Kingdom included more cities than just Rome, the Kingdom of Alba Longa included more than just Alba Longa.--R-41"

As I read Livy, which is the standard presentation of the legend, [34] there is no indication that in the legendary history its Kings ruled over more than that single city, including its immediately surrounding territory. DGG ( talk ) 19:01, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Map of central Italy with ancient city names during the early Roman era. The city of Alba Longa is shown in red beside Lake Albano (titled "Lacus Albanus" in the picture) as shown in the lower right corner of the square titled "C3". The Kingdom of Alba Longa included other cities, including Lavinium shown in square "B4". According to Etruscan and Roman legend, Romulus arrived at the territory that he proclaimed to be the new settlement of Rome, and formed the Roman Kingdom.
There are several sources included in the article that back up claims that it ruled over more cities than just Alba Longa. This source (Livy, Valerie M Warrior (ed). The History of Rome, Books 1-5. Indianapolis, Indiana, USA: Hackett Publishing Company, Inc., 2006. Pp. 8.) states that it ruled over Lavinium, this source (Andrea Carandini, Stephen Sartarelli. Rome: Day One. English edition. Princeton, New Jersey, USA: Princeton University Press, 2011. Pp. 33.) states that it ruled over Latium. According to legend the famous last King of Alba Longa, Romulus, arrived (then as King of Alba Longa) to the site where he established a new settlement, Rome, and became king of the Roman Kingdom. Second of all First it is against Wikipedia policy to assume an unwelcoming behaviour to users, that is demonstrated by the user DGG stating that it is a "naïve article, not separating fact from fiction", if there are problems these should be addressed first to the person who added them (in this case me, as I added the material) to seek a solution rather than denouncing it. It is true that legend is involved in Roman history, but historians so far have accepted the existence of figures such as Aeneas and Romulus, though they may question legends surrounding them.--R-41 (talk) 19:56, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Take a deep breath and relax - No one was saying anything about you personally. As someone unfamiliar with the material, I can't say that DGG's assessment is that far off the mark - but only as it relates to the article itself. Note that you have multiple statements of fact, but these are sourced to a book called "Worlds of Myth", which might imply (correctly or incorrectly) that the fact is mixing in with the fiction (or the myth). Another statement begins with "According to Legend...", and yet is presented as factual. Now, we do have Alba Longa, and I'm not clear on the difference between that article and this one - could you elaborate on why we would need both?

This is not the subject of non-trivial coverage by multiple, independent third-party sources, a WP:BASIC requirement. Rather, he gets mention in coverage of companies, which may or may not satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH, but which do not inure to this subject. Even if this subject were to WP:INHERIT some notability from the coverage, it's worth noting that the coverage exists because his companies were acquired by Google and Twitter, mostly indicating notability for the buyers.

Christopher Hitchens's critiques of public figures[edit]

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

Wikipedia is not Wikiquote. This article essentially is a quote farm that collects a series of quotations from Christopher Hitchens berating various public figures, living and dead.

I looked, and the very long Wikiquote entry seems to have almost all of these already. Any that are missing might be added.

There isn't much analysis, discourse, or reaction concerning these quotations. Most of them just say that Hitchens had something bad to say about a public figure. Longer entries just say that he said so in several places. The only entry that comes close to containing encyclopedia information is the portion on Mother Teresa; since this was forked away from the main biographical article, portions of that could be unforked back.

As a stand alone article, this may also violate the undue weight principle by suggesting that Hitchens was just some kind of troll whose public career consisted of badmouthing people. Of this, I am less sure. Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 21:32, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. FWIW, I didn't mean to call him a troll, but rather to point out the impression that a page devoted to his invective against specific people created. He wrote strong prose, he admired George Orwell, and he was on the side of plain English, and that's my side. The more serious issue is whether this belongs here or at Wikiquote. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 04:35, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

So OK, elsewhere we don't do such an overview. But since Hitchens andserious critiques did, it is an acceptable line of an article. For others, like generals, we do a list of battles &tc. That is NPOV too. -DePiep (talk) 23:50, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As I will describe below when !voting: his serial arguments with individuals, often personal, can be lined up in the encyclopedia. Agree, his line of arguments should be published elsewhere, not here (OR). -DePiep (talk) 23:54, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There is not much encyclopedicity in "Hitchens said/wrote so and so", especially when no factual evaluation of his claims is presented. Hitchens isn't some kind of superpundit who stands above all others, meriting a separate page on his critiques. Brandmeister t 23:33, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Agree, Brandmeister. So if the thread through his arguments with a person is published & discussed elsewhere, that is a good reason such an argument be in the Wikipedia. -DePiep (talk) 00:03, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I'll cheerfully admit that I'm not a fan of Hitchens, although he was a quite quotable writer. I'm not even proposing that the quotations be removed from the project entirely. The only issue for me is whether this is really an encyclopedia article, or something that should be merged to his page at Wikiquote. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 23:16, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It should be noted that locally the event is referred to as the National Schools Moot Court Competition (the "South African" part being omitted) and several sources are omitted when searching for "South African National Schools Moot Court Competition". Furthermore the event is officially supported by the South African government and several statutory bodies. Purple Duke (talk) 16:16, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Even without "South Africa" there are less then 10.000 internet hits. But without facebook, linkedin, wikipedia (and clones), youtube, yelp, myspace, twitter, and vimeo is looses 75% of its hits. Sorry, but the competition has to grow a bit more. Night of the Big Wind talk 17:06, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I believe the presumption in favour of notability as per Wikipedia:Notability applies to the topic and that said presumption is not derogated from merely because of a lack of hits. Sources "are not required to be available online, and they are not required to be in English"[1]. Wide coverage on the internet does therefore not seem to be a requirement. The sources supra and several not annotated reflect a neutral point of view, are credible and provide sufficient detail for a comprehensive article.
This state endorsed moot court competition, judged by Constitutional Court Judges (the highest court in South Africa for constitutional matters in a country where the constitution is the supreme law), is indeed in its infancy but the lesser degree of proliferation of online publications in South Africa should be noted and if the number of hits are indicative of a "non-notable event" (which from my understanding Wikipedia:Notability is not a requirement) then the online presence should be compared to a similar type of event originating from a country with a similar socio-economic environment and internet penetration and not against an arbitrary number of hits. In said circumstances the approximate 2500 hits then seem adequate for now. Purple Duke (talk) 19:09, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Based on Wikipedia:Notability (events), I would asked for more evidence of notability in the article. And please be aware that sources like Twitter and Facebook are not accepted as reliable sources. Night of the Big Wind talk 19:29, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
From my understanding the topic is not an "event" (Wiktionary:Event) as per Wikipedia:Notability (events), and the general Wikipedia:Notability applies. I refer to my argument supra. No sources like Twitter and Facebook have been consulted or referenced, see the extract of reliable sources supra. The 2500 refers to the 25% of 10.000 internet hits not facebook, linkedin, wikipedia (and clones), youtube, yelp, myspace, twitter, and vimeo as calculated by you supra. Purple Duke (talk) 19:44, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The premise of the request for deletion is: (my emphasis)
"Non-notable event. No wide coverage on the internet (for what that is worth relating to South [sic] Afrika)."
Wikipedia:Notability states: (my emphasis)
'"Sources",[2] for notability purposes, should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. The number and nature of reliable sources needed varies depending on the depth of coverage and quality of the sources. Multiple sources are generally expected. Sources are not required to be available online, and they are not required to be in English. Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability.'

Architectural firm. Article states that "a number of their works are listed in the US National Register of Historic Places" which, I don't think, is enough to indicate notability by itself. I searched and found lots of articles where they are mentioned trivially as the architectural firm attached to a particular project, but no independent coverage of the firm as an individual entity. If this is deleted, the redirect at Hirsch and Watson Helfensteller should go too. LivitEh?/What? 15:42, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - Perhaps I should clarify my comment about a "presumption". Because multiple works by this firm are listed on the National Register, I presume that this firm is sufficiently documented in the National Register documents that it will be established as notable at some time in the future when Doncram has obtained and read the National Register materials and writes up what he has learned about the firm. Until such time, its notability is not established and the page does not belong in article space. Due to the likelihood that the firm's notability can be established in the future, I think it's acceptable to allow Doncram to maintain the page in user space. --Orlady (talk) 19:41, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have no problem with userfy - as long as it doesn't get moved back into article space until the firm has independent coverage. LivitEh?/What? 20:33, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I agree with SPhilbrick. Broadly paraphrasing the WP:NOTINHERITED, items associated with notable subjects do not inherit notability simply because of the association. In this case, however, we're talking something different. Most or all of the Helfensteller, Hirsch & Watson buildings are on the NRHP for architectural criteria (for those unfamiliar, structures can be listed on the Register for one or more of multiple reasons, "architectural criteria" being one of them). That means that the architectural firm created the very thing that makes these structures notable to begin with. That's a far cry from mere association. Andrew Jameson (talk) 19:49, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This is why we need to userfy and not delete outright. I see this as being akin to the "restaurant" example at WP:NOTE... only in reverse. Unless it can be established that the buildings are primarily notable for their architecture, the architects should not inherit notability from the building. If that can be established through reliable sources, then the situation changes. Blueboar (talk) 16:00, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I'm not finding the restaurant example you mention at WP:NOTE; could you please steer us to it? Thanks. Ammodramus (talk) 21:49, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
My error... I got my notability guidelines mixed up... the example is at Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) (specifically: Wikipedia:ORG#No inherited notability) Blueboar (talk) 01:32, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes! --doncram 20:23, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm afraid that to me, this argument sounds a lot like: "I'm sure that X is notable, although I can't be bothered to research it myself; but if we put an article out there, sooner or later somebody else will do the work."
First, this seems to be going about things backward. In WP:YFA, we're told to gather sources and establish notability before we ever launch an article. Here, however, the plan seems to be: post an article based on a general presumption of notability, and trust that someone, sometime, will make the effort to demonstrate that the subject actually is notable.
Second, I don't share my fellow editor's optimism about the future improvement of the article. Wikipedia has an abundance of embarrassingly minimal substubs about NRHP sites that were created as two-sentence one-reference stubs over a year ago, and that remain two-sentence one-reference stubs to this day. I'm not at all sanguine about the intervention of the hypothetical St. Louis historian, and I think we must proceed on the assumption that the article will go unimproved for a long, long time after its posting. If we allow an article to go up that doesn't satisfy WP:NRVE today, it doesn't seem likely that someone will fix it in the reasonably near future. Ammodramus (talk) 21:57, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ammodramus, thank you for caring. I hear your concern for the NRHP articles, several thousand of which I agree are pretty crummy. One way that many of them are crummy is that the writer had no clue what was the association of a listed person or firm. Several hundred existing Wikipedia articles probably falsely assert (explicitly, or by infobox "architect=" assertion) that an associated person or firm is an architect, when in fact the named person or firm is a builder or engineer instead. Also many hundred falsely assert that a building was built in a given year, when in fact that was a year of other significance. And there are other problems in the one- or two-sentence NRHP articles. But your taking a stand against this architect article is misplaced. Removal of the article would impoverish 12 NRHP articles and 2 other articles that link here now. If the current architect article is removed, what then for the 14 linking articles? I suppose one could basically copy the entire current architect article into each one of those, to provide some context for the readers of those articles. Or construct a Navbox with information about the other buildings designed by the same architect. It seems best to let there be an architect article which answers the question of who the hell is "Helfensteller, Hirsch & Watson" and what else have they done, rather than forcing know-nothing ignorance into each of the 14 articles that are somewhat informed currently by the existing article. I can't promise, of course, that this particular architect article will get better developed by a local historian or librarian coming forward. But, odds are a lot better that we'll get to a decent article a year from now, if we have this one as a pretty good start. At the moment, it fully establishes that the firm is an architectural firm, rather than a building contractor or an engineering firm. And it provides convenient navigation. I think it is all right, more than all right, to leave this in an article, rather than to force duplicative copying of the information into 14 articles, in order to provide appropriate context in each of them separately.
Creating articles for the architects, engineers, and builders associated with many NRHP sites is a way forward to improve the NRHP articles, which is what you want. FWIW, there are now 364 articles in Category:NRHP architects, 48 articles in Category:NRHP builders, 8 articles in Category:NRHP engineers. --doncram 00:57, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Doncram... in a comment above you said "There is some general consensus above that the firm is in fact notable"... I disagree. I think there is a general consensus that the firm is likely to be notable... I would even go so far as to say there is a consensus that it probably is notable. But "probably" does not equate to "is". To move from probably to is, you need reliable secondary sources that discuss the firm (and do so in some depth - a passing mention on the NRHP database, or in a nomination document is not enough). Blueboar (talk) 01:42, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

LivitEh?/What? 13:18, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've added some more. Livitup, no offense, but your view would support putting a "stub" tag in the article (already present), calling for further expansion, and does not support removing the article from the wikipedia altogether. --doncram 19:56, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why not turn it into a category then? Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 20:34, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
To Purplebackpack89, there's a good discussion of how categories and lists are complementary at wp:CLT, including admonishment that some duplication of function is not a valid argument for deletion of one. And, in particular here, if the article were deleted, there would be no location where complete info on the architects is given, though one could navigate by category among the articles, each containing a redlink to the architect. It would beg for creation of a central architect article. --doncram 19:56, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I updated the article with actual ranks — he held ranks in both the volunteer and regular armies and had brevet ranks in both. There are several other things notable about this guy. He was court-martialed and cashiered after charges of embezzlement but was reinstated by an executive order of President Rutherford B. Hayes. He also served as Chief Superintendent of the Freedmen's Bureau for Memphis, TN and later as Chief Superintendent of Freedmen's Affairs, State of Kentucky.

Not notable as a chess player Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 00:18, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Are these standards written down? There seems to be a massive number of IMs and NMs in Wikipedia, most with no comparable games discussed in international media. This seems suspiciously like intentional targeting. Why focus on Esserman? In addition, IM is a major title; I don't see why Wikipedia cannot have articles on IMs. There is no limit to the number of articles here, so why worry?

They have been discussed in many AfDs and on the Chess project talk page, but not formally written down. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 00:03, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Then I would propose deferring a decision until standards are established with a degree of consensus. Otherwise, these battles will be arbitrary fights, with people given incentive to target other players for personal reasons. Esserman should certainly be one of the last IMs to be removed because of his general notability within the U.S. chess world and the wide international media coverage of his games.

Here's one example of an article -- of several -- where I see an inconsistency in your stance. You have frequently edited the article for Abby Marshall, a young WFM who is not even yet a WIM. How could you possibly align this with your attempt to delete Esserman? Tfine80 (talk) 18:10, 25 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
So far, I have a) added structure and convention to the article b) added important facts c) removed non-neutral language d) cleaned up grammar and e) sourced everything thoroughly f) referenced a policy inconsistency here that has gone unanswered. I value any opinions based on substantive criticisms of the work and its adherence to wp:POLICY. I advocate only for the quality of editing.
