There are a lot of sources in the article as it stands, but 90% of them are simply checklists of what Pak has done during his career. The article comes across as slightly promotional ("here are all the things he's done") with very little in the way of significant media coverage or personal information. I cannot at this time determine what makes him stand out from the rest of the graphic designer/developer crowd or makes him notable per Wikipedia's standards.

Keep - A designer from Turkey that worked with big brands (check his previous works on http://undream.net). Most of the sources linked are respected/known design magazines of his subject therefore WP:GNG is met and most of his achievements are clearly notable. Possibly, the way the article written is causing a problem; which can be fixed. As a designer who follows design communities up close I can say that this guy one of the main sources of inspiration for many designers in multiple design branches - and one of the current leads of Today's motion design.--Gnihton (talk) 20:41, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Should be corrected in the most recent version. --Gnihton (talk) 09:16, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Gnihton, as I mentioned to you in IRC, all that the article needs is a few more references that don't simply list Pak on a credits page and discuss him as an artist. At the moment there is one (maybe two at a stretch), which isn't really enough to make him notable per Wikipedia's standards, and I can't find any more (or I'd add them myself). Primefac (talk) 22:59, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for AfD nomination should be gone, if not, minimized by the changes until now. Have a look. Also keep in mind that some of the sources look like "front page" with no relation to the person of interest (for instance http://www.madinspain.com/) - do not get tricked by this, just scroll down a bit and you will see big chunks of data about the person of interest. Sadly, single page design is hype right now so it's not possible to link the exact (scroll) location of the single-page-design website to show the perfect reference. Should not be a problem though, since the sources are fitting to WP:GNG. --Gnihton (talk) 09:13, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I did see the section that listed him as one of the thirteen presenters, it was not huge. Those were the five sentences that contained only conclusions, no facts, and read as "hype". That is not what we mean by substantive. --Bejnar (talk) 14:58, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Gnihton, there is an option for citing books in the "Cite" dropdown menu (select "Cite" when you are editing, then chose "cite book" from the "Templates" dropdown menu). The cite helper gives an ISBN lookup (meaning you don't have to enter all the info in manually). Primefac (talk) 12:07, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Primefac, thanks for the info, but how will it be proven that the stuff I cite are actually in the book(s)? --Gnihton (talk) 13:02, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
At the risk of sounding terribly sarcastic: libraries still exist. Primefac (talk) 13:43, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP, relying exclusively on primary sources with not a shred of reliable source coverage in sight, of a rapper whose only substantive claim to passing WP:NMUSIC is an album that peaked #94 on the Billboard hip hop charts. That certainly satisfies the letter of NMUSIC #2, but even NMUSIC still requires the article to be properly sourced — it does not entitle anybody to keep a Wikipedia article that's this badly sourced just because they only barely squeak over one item on its checklist. I'm certainly willing to withdraw this if real, properly reliable sourcing can be added to salvage the article with, but he's not entitled to keep an article on here if this is the best he can do for sourcing. (See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Guce, which was about the same person — the claim of notability and the quality of sourcing aren't significantly better here than they were there, but the article is still different enough from the original to not qualify for CSD G4.)

I'm not convinced that the subject passes WP:PROF, or even WP:GNG. The only claim I can see that might pass the professor test is the editorial role on Journal of Economic Behaviour..., but even then he's listed as "an" editor rather than the head of the editorial staff. I'm open to withdrawing this if notability can be demonstrated, but at present, it reads like a resume, not the biography of a notable academic. Yunshui  14:17, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested by the article's creator because he has played in the Romanian Liga II. Since this league is not confirmed as fully pro playing in it does not confer notability.

Also nominating similar related article:

List of royal mistresses of Hungary (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

There was never any such position as a "royal mistress of Bohemia", so it's not surprising that the table is half-empty, half-inaccurate. Concubines are not mistresses, and the article would hardly meet notability criteria more than the List of Bohemian queens' favourite dishes. Not everything "royal" deserves an article or a list. One can try to put up with articles such as List of consorts of Nevers, but there has to be a limit somewhere. I repeat, this was not an office. It had no "term started date" and no "term ended date". Being a mistress meant many different things to many different couples. Some were one-night adventures that resulted in a child, some were lifetime partners and influential confidantes. Some were not sexual, and some were purely sexual. It makes no sense to put all of these women into the same basket and treat them as office-holders. Surtsicna (talk) 13:16, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The previous AfD was closed as delete, after a fairly heated debate and subsequent deletion review. The article has been recently recreated, following the release this week of a documentary miniseries [14] about the subject of the article. This additional coverage could address the primary policy-based deletion argument of WP:BLP1E. As nominator, my !vote at this time is neutral.

  • I think that a better way to phrase this would be "Editors that have signed up with the sole purpose of posting in this AfD need to be aware that they can be seen as single purpose accounts and as such, will make sure to cite relevant policies. Editors that have made few or no edits outside of this topic and that appear to be making arguments that would fall within WP:NOT and/or is based more upon a personal opinion/viewpoint may be considered less helpful to the discussion and potentially considered to have very little impact on the overall consensus. Please remember that AfD is WP:NOTAVOTE and that the final decision will be made based upon the arguments posed and whether or not they are seen to fall within the applicable guidelines." That's a little lengthy, but it does somewhat sum up the SPA essay and NOTAVOTE in a more diplomatic approach. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 10:23, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I've found where the media coverage of Knox has been listed in a journal article about English newspaper titles. She's not given a main focus as the paper is about newspaper titles and how they have to be written in a specific way to gain precious clicks, but it does show that this is more than one event. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:59, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Be a little careful about saying that we should delete this based upon speculation that Knox may want this removed one day. I know that this isn't the only thing in your argument, but until Knox herself asks for its deletion we should not automatically assume that she will want this removed based upon the idea that she will see her past as personally harmful for her career. To date she has not said anything that would show that she would try to hide or obscure her past once she completes her degree. I'm not saying that we shouldn't potentially protect people or respect their wishes, just that we aren't trying to provide protection where the person has not requested any and where it could also potentially be detrimental to Wikipedia. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:33, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Our BLP policies are not based on requests by the subjects. Avoiding harm is one of the key tenets. That a bio of a young adult filled with titillating and prurient detail that essentially exist because of doxxing should not be what Wikipedia biographies are about. There are countless college-aged women that work in some form of adult entertainment yet have no bio because they haven't been doxxed. People interested in the real name and university address of females that work in strip clubs or perform in adult movies can find other sources. We don't need to immortalize doxxed identities here and that is the only reason she stands out from the countless others. It is not empowering her by immortalizing her doxxing nor is it empowering for young women to learn that once their real name is known, WP will create and maintain her link to a stage name simply because we can. If she didn't want anonymity, she wouldn't have a stage name. It's that simple, really. --DHeyward (talk) 08:15, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Initially she wanted to keep her real name hidden and we respected that in the first incarnation of the article. However since that point Knox has come out with a documentary series where she releases her real name. Also, whether or not the whole scenario (and the article) is/was empowering for Knox shouldn't be a reason for deletion- we have to base it on notability. Sometimes people do things that we as editors find personally unappealing or degrading and sometimes those people gain notability for that fact. We need to be very, very careful that we aren't removing things just because we think that one day Miriam Weeks will suddenly become ashamed of the things that she did under the name of Belle Knox and because we personally find the events distasteful. This can actually be seen as a form of censorship. Well meaning censorship, but still censorship. Most of the times we do this without even thinking about whether or not what we're doing is ultimately beneficial to Wikipedia and the individual or whether or not it's censorship. While no, we shouldn't have stuff just to be salacious, neither should we be white knights in a situation like this. There has already been harm done, but not by Wikipedia and we need to look at whether the Wikipedia article would do harm in this situation, especially when you consider that the entire scenario has been widely reported on and the woman herself has taken the resulting media coverage as a platform to talk about various applicable issues. Basically, what I want to make sure is that in trying to protect her from potential harm that we aren't actually perpetuating harm ourselves by saying that because all of this happened, that obviously she'll regret all of this later (stigmatizing everything) and that she needs to be protected from herself as well as from the world at large. We also need to not kid ourselves: removing this won't really do much for her in the long run. This has already popped up in at least one academic journal (as a focus on media headlines) so this is something that is more than newspapers reporting on someone refusing to provide flowers to a gay couple's wedding or someone quitting their media job because they want to go run a pot shop. We need to avoid harm, yes, but we also need to look at whether or not this is notable. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:47, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I believe your argument is another strawman recreation of what I said, but fails to address the fundamental. Picking out women that have chosen to use sex work as a means to support their education is not new. It is not about how editors feel about sex work, it's about contributing to a culture of shaming individuals that have chosen it. This article doesn't exist without her real name. Her own assessment, I believe, is that doxxing has ruined her life. WP is not a random collection of information and information about a single college woman that uses adult entertainment to fund their college career is one person among thousands. She is not notable because she is a college student doing sex work as there are literally tens of thousands that do so. She is in the news because they discovered her identity and affiliation. Using that as a reason for inclusion is harmful. She is not known for her sex work, rather she is known because of a "name and shame" mentality by the press. WP need not be party to that type of sensationalism. This is not Jerry Springer. --DHeyward (talk) 09:56, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Autobiographical. Extensively edited by single-purpose-account who appears to also be the subject. Have tried to explain nature of problems and pointed out they mustn't edit or create an article on themselves. They are trying extremely hard to produce references (using copyvio uploads of newspaper scans!) but my own searches aren't producing anything to show independent notability. I can't read the language in the newspaper scans (and won't even try to guess which of the Indian languages it is).

Moreover this nomination seems to ignore that the Wikipedia:Notability (events) guideline basically says an article's notability depends on the event in question. While its satisfaction of WP:LASTING could be debated, like many of the articles in the cited category, based on the tone of coverage it certainly fits the circumstances stated in WP:N/CA. I'd support moving it to the Missing White Woman Syndrome article, if there are sources calling this situation such a case. Anynobody(?) 19:55, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@KarakasaObake: NamUS contains 18,000 missing persons cases, and that is for the United States alone. The argument should not be "look at these other 59", but "look at these other 17,900." VQuakr (talk) 02:18, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@VQuakr: The obvious difference between the 59 pages we have, and the 17,900 pages we don't, is that the 59 pages are for cases that were the subject of significant media interest, which invariably led to a a large, organized search; a widespread feeling of fear in the area; candlelight vigils; etc. It's the reaction to the disappearance that makes it notable. I feel like this is akin to an argument that we shouldn't have an article on The Rape of the Lock because there are a hundred million poems we don't have pages for, and besides, people get their hair cut all the time. KarakasaObake (talk) 19:26, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
We have different inclusion criteria for literature than for events. WP:NEVENT does not mention vigils, search parties, or feelings of fear and for good reason - there are many, many more than 59 vigils per decade worldwide. VQuakr (talk) 20:02, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@VQuakr:No, WP:NEVENT doesn't mention vigils or search parties, but it does mention depth of coverage, duration of coverage, and diversity of sources, all of which this case has. And, quoting directly from WP:NEVENT: "As with other events, media coverage can confer notability on a high-profile criminal act, provided such coverage meets the above guidelines and those regarding reliable sources. The disappearance of a person would fall under this guideline if law enforcement agencies deemed it likely to have been caused by criminal conduct, regardless of whether a perpetrator is identified or charged. If a matter is deemed notable, and to be a likely crime, the article should remain even if it is subsequently found that no crime occurred (e.g., the Runaway bride case) since that would not make the matter less notable." KarakasaObake (talk) 23:30, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"NamUS contains 18,000 missing persons cases...." I don't see the relevance of those 18,000. the majority of them have not been shown to be suspected or charged abductions as this case has.108.18.74.119 (talk) 00:38, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The only way that I might consider this article notable and keep-worthy is if, somewhere along the line, the reason for her disappearance turns out to be especially notable -- abducted by aliens, or ISIS, or something similarly unlikely. I don't see any point in keeping the article around until that notability is established, however -- it can always be resurrected if it turns out that something truly distinguishes this girl from all the other missing persons cases out there that by luck or tragedy don't get the same kind of media coverage.Eniagrom (talk) 10:56, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

*Weak Keep for now. It has the intense and widespread coverage similar to other Missing White Female cases which have been found to be notable in AFDs. Obviously one cannot use the time machine to travel to the future and see how lasting the effects and coverage were. We could revisit in a couple of years and delete it if the coverage fades quickly. It should not be added to the Missing White Female Syndrome article unless reliable sources call it an instance of such disproportionate coverage. So far I do not see such linkage in the news coverage. Edison (talk) 12:34, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's not clear if she passes WP:ACADEMIC (although in humanities the situation is seldom clear-cut) and there are serious potential WP:BLP violations in the article due to lack of sources combined with mostly negative statements. I've googled around a bit, but couldn't find much in the way of sources about her, so I think it's prudent to delete the whole article. JMP EAX (talk) 00:43, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

local festival. extensive listing of productions violates WP:NOT. but even if it were removed, there still isn othing for ntoability except routine notices) DGG ( talk ) 05:54, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]


[In Defense of this article] The article is patterned after other similar articles on Wikipedia such as "Hudson Warehouse", "Woodward Shakespeare Festival", and "Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival" and many other similar articles that speak of a theater or festival performing Shakespeare (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Shakespeare_festivals).

How are all of these other articles that are similar in content and format, OK to remain on WP and this article isn't? All of these other articles on Shakespeare theaters or festivals list the same things that this article does such as

The list of productions has been edited down to only include the last two years. This can be further modified if need be. What is the criteria for a section like this?

As for being notable, (i.e worthy of inclusion on WP) one of WP's criteria is that the group/person/event be recognized by other verifiable sources. The article contains several references to outside publications and city entities that recognize what the group has done such as the "Connecticut Post" and the "Jersey Journal". The company is notable from a historical perspective in that its been operating for nearly 25 years in New Jersey and is affiliated with several communities within New Jersey and also Stratford, CT. The first two companies listed above, "Hudson Warehouse" and "Woodward Shakespeare", have been operating for 10 years. How are these groups MORE notable from a historical perspective then this group that has been around twice as long? How are they MORE notable as they list the same type of content, as this articles does, and again not being questioned for deletion?

Further, there is a section in the article itself which lists "Notable Achievements". They include:

  1. The company's founder was recognized for contributions to his community through the Hudson Shakespeare Company by the "Jersey Journal", the main newspaper of this section of New Jersey.
  2. Several members of the company were published in a book in 2014 whose subject matter is Shakespeare and Theater.
  3. Award nominations in a long running New York City theater festival.
  4. One of its productions was highlighted in the New Cambridge press edition of "Two Noble Kinsmen". a scholarly edition of individual Shakespeare plays similar to the "Penguin Shakespeare" or "Arden Shakespeare" series. This is a recognized scholarly institution verifying the company's mission to do lesser done Shakespeare plays.

In summary AGAINST deleting this article:

  1. It follows WP criteria for articles in that its historical and ongoing activities are verifiable by noted outside sources.
  2. The article is patterned after other like theater company/festival articles, both in content and format, already on WP that are NOT being questioned for deletion.
  3. Its notable from a historical perspective in how long its been operating and it's connection to several communities in New Jersey.
  4. Contains notable achievements such as an award where its founder was recognized for service to the surrounding community, noted in two literary publications and recognized in peer award nominations.

I submit if that these other articles on theater groups are not being questioned for deletion and the "Past Productions" list has been edited down than there is no ground for this article on "Hudson Shakespeare Company" to be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sbari7057 (talk • contribs) 14:32, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

[In Defense of this article] The original complaint that got this article listed for possible deletion was an “extensive listing of productions violates WP:NOT” The section has since been shortened to contain only 2 years worth of information. However, there are several live articles on Wikipedia that have extensive production lists and have not been singled out for deletion. The original productions section contained a listing of productions ranging from 1992-2014. As has been stated in a previous posting this article was designed to match up with other similar Wikipedia articles. Each play listing linked to a related Wikipedia page if it was applicable. To illustrate this point of existing Wikipedia articles on Shakespeare festivals having extensive production credits but have not been singled out for deletion, here is a list:

Each of these are live Wikipedia articles that have extensive production listings where some contain links to existing Wikipedia pages. So why the bias against this article Hudson Shakespeare Company? Why are the articles cited above allowed to have extensive production credits and are not being considered for deletion, while the Hudson Shakespeare Company article is? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sbari7057 (talk • contribs) 18:07, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely agreed, as I am PR for the artist I should have posted updated links our apologies on that negligence.

STATION NETWORKS that have had this artist in rotation: Bell Media (Which owned and operated Flow 93.5 at the time, and Virgin radio 99.9, Top 2 urban stations in Toronto playing hip-hop music) Blue Ant Media (Which operates AUX TV where the artist Music video was on rotation)

Being owned by a media conglomerate does not make a radio station a network. Radio networks air a programming schedule that's predominantly or entirely common to all stations in the network, and CBC Radio's services are the only ones in Canada which meet that criterion (the sports networks being irrelevant to NMUSIC.) Neither Flow 93.5 nor Virgin 99.9 is "networked" with any other station — sharing ownership with another station that has no common programming is not the same thing as being a network. And even if Flow or Virgin did count, you haven't provided any sources by which we can verify that she got playlisted on either of them (or on Aux.)

-Artist covering "Pride" newspaper: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:2index.jpg

As these were published before these news companies integrated to an online format the articles are not available, however I have just contacted both and will have versions of both articles made available for further examination to confirm they fit within the guidelines listed under *WP:MUSICBIO

This is not an artist that you Google and there are suggestions for other artist, as soon as this artist name is entered into web searches, many publications appear solidifying the artist credentials. Allunsigned is a notable publication amongst the hip-hop community, also is http://www.hip-hopvibe.com - which posts the artist's most recent releases but does not "report performance dates, release information or track listings, or the publications of contact and booking details in directories" this is simply a publication that chooses to post the artists' music and give their opinion on the artist and the music. JaniceRse (talk) 22:27, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you're a PR representative for the artist, then per our conflict of interest policy you shouldn't be creating or editing an article about her at all. Wikipedia exists as a venue for neutral information about people who have passed our notability criteria, not as a venue for anybody to extend their own marketing campaigns. Bearcat (talk) 08:45, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing in this article as written passes WP:NMUSIC, and the sourcing that's been provided so far, either in the article or in this discussion, is purely promotional — not one shred of properly reliable source coverage has actually been provided so far. What JaniceRse is missing is the part of NMUSIC where it specifies that regardless of how many items on the notability checklist an article claims that the subject meets, it's not the assertion that gets her past NMUSIC, but the quality of the sourcing that can be provided to verify the assertion. If you have to rely on marketing/promotional materials to "source" the assertion, and cannot cite coverage in reliable independent sources which supports the claims, then the criterion has not been passed — precisely because marketing/promotional/PR teams tend to inflate claims of notability well beyond the actual reality (e.g. it got played one time on one radio station = it's a worldwide smash megahit!), no musician ever gets over an NMUSIC criterion until the claim that she gets over an NMUSIC criterion is properly sourced. And merely reposting a copy of the newspaper's cover to Commons does not satisfy our inclusion rules, either. And I already noted both the conflict of interest rule, and the reasons why it exists, that if you're her PR agent then you have exactly no business going anywhere near a Wikipedia article about her at all. Delete, without prejudice against recreation, by somebody independent of her marketing team, in the future if and when, and only if and when, she can actually be properly sourced as having passed one or more of the NMUSIC criteria.

Previously a BLP PROD - I still think it is. The references are his official site and I believe a site that's got some of his scultptures. He does do awesome work, I have to admit - but a google news search reveals nothing. I've expanded to "Devon Dorrity Sculpture" and that seems to only pull his site and some tumblr hits.

Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested based a speculative claim that he would play for SC Telstar in the future. The inadmissibility of notability based potential future appearances remains one of the strongest and longest standing consensuses of the WikiProject football.

Comment This is a misinterpretation of WP:CRYSTAL. Crystal is about unverifiable speculation. It allows for things that are almost certain to occur. While a newly signed 15-year old would indeed by Crystal, a midfielder who has been on the bench for 6 out of the last 7 weeks, is almost certain to make an appearance.
  • Comment - As this AfD clearly indicates, there is no need for such a stance. If players meet a guidline during a discussion then opinions change, if not, they are not notable and should be deleted. Fenix down (talk) 07:41, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is a hoax. I could find absolutely no support for this term at Google, Google Scholar or Google Books; the only thing that turned up in a search was this article. There apparently really was an Augustine Hay, an obscure Scottish cleric; the article claims he invented this analysis, but I could find nothing connecting him with this subject. Both articles were written by the same editor on the same day. I prodded them both, and a brand-new special-purpose-account editor turned up at this article within the hour, removing the prod and claiming that they could verify the information in the article. I still think it's a hoax. Taking it to the community to decide. MelanieN (talk) 01:32, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
