Wikipedia is not a crystal ball and neither is it a repository for product announcements. This piece of literature is supposed to be release more than a year from now in April 2016. Even then, there is no guarantee that it will be popular (read: notable). Furthermore, there doesn't appear to be any coverage from news sources so it seems to fail WP:GNG. I can see no other option than to delete for now, without prejudice against recreation at a later date. Thank you, ceradon (talk • contribs) 22:41, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Bottom line here is that it's over a year from release, and so there's simply no independent coverage. Multi-million-dollar films sometimes (but not always even then!) generate enough third-party discussion to warrant an article this premature, but books? Not so much, and certainly not in this case. No prejudice to recreation in 2016 if independent reliable sources emerge. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 23:33, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per above. I'll be completely honest: it's hard for religious books to gain enough coverage to pass notability guidelines on Wikipedia and that's after the release date. Most outlets just don't want to cover religious works, regardless of the religion. This book doesn't look like it's one of those exceptions, especially since it hasn't released yet. This may gain coverage after it releases, but I'll be honest in that the odds are stacked against it. Most of the places that would be considered RS typically go for your mainstream (ie, "safe") religious works by extremely well known people and the lack of chatter about this book in even the non-reliable sources is also kind of telling. Normally there'd be at least some kind of talk out there somewhere and there doesn't seem to be any, at least none that aren't WP:PRIMARY. I know that this hasn't released yet, but it doesn't look like it's going to be a particularly noteworthy book even within its religion. This is way, way WP:TOOSOON for an entry at this point in time. This is in Template:LaVeyan Satanism, so if deleted (which looks likely) then it'll need to be removed from there as well.

Auburn–Tulane football rivalry[edit]

Auburn–Tulane football rivalry (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

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

Non-notable college football rivalry that fails WP:NRIVALRY and WP:GNG. Per WP:NRIVALRY, no sports rivalry is inherently notable, and every sports "rivalry" must satisfy the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG. That means significant coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources explicitly covering the series as a rivalry, not merely as a recurring game series. By that GNG standard, there is virtually no significant, in-depth coverage of Auburn-Tulane as a "rivalry" in multiple, independent, reliable sources per WP:RS. Has anyone ever written an in-depth feature article about the history and significance of the Auburn-Tulane series as a rivalry? Has anyone has ever written a book about the Auburn-Tulane series as a rivalry? Alabama-Auburn? LSU-Tulane? Auburn-Georgia? Yes, to all of those. Auburn-Tulane? Nope. And that's not surprising at all, given that this game has only been played once in the last 60 years, and has not been played in consecutive seasons since 1955. This series has/had no trophy and few of the other hallmarks of a traditional college rivalry, and none of the independent sources covering the historical game series discuss it in any depth as a "rivalry." CFB rivalries are about tradition, and this game series has little. This is not what was intended by WP:NRIVALRY, and this article is not supported by the precedents of previous AfDs and WP:CFB talk page discussions for a stand-alone CFB rivalry article. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:06, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Question. Clearly not a current rivalry, but they did play on an annual basis from 1921 to 1955. Can you confirm that you've searched newspaper and other sources to determine whether or not it was considered a significant rivalry back in those prior decades? Cbl62 (talk) 00:20, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• I wonder the same. Tulane has lots of football programs online to see how they considered Auburn then; e. g. The Greenie; Auburn vs. Tulane Cake (talk) 20:36, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Cake, football programs produced by the home team are not independent coverage, as required by WP:GNG to establish notability. Nor are yearbooks, school newspapers, conference publications, or NCAA records books. We also typically discount hometown newspaper coverage, too. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 23:45, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Only claiming them as a starting point. On another note, it looks like this was an annual happening in New Orleans for years. I wonder on the coverage of the '32 game, for both 32 Tulane and 32 Auburn were fierce. Jimmy Hitchcock had 2 70+ yard TDs. Cake (talk) 05:36, 7 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Cbl62, I have pored through over 200 articles from the 1930s, 40s and 50s, and I have yet to find any significant coverage of this series as a notable rivalry. Passing uses of the word "rivalry," yes, but nothing that recounts the history of the series as a rivalry and its significance to the two programs as a rivalry. I am still looking, however, and everyone who participates is obviously welcome to do their own searches of Newspapers.com, Google Books, Google News Archive, etc., just as I am. You once asked me if the Florida Gators could justify having six or seven rivalry articles (two of which were historical). I now ask you the same: can the Auburn Tigers justify having 8 or 9 rivalry articles. My answer is "no," no program can justify 8 or 9 afrticles about genuine rivalries (at least any program that's not named Notre Dame). Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 23:11, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - In a very quick whirl of the internets, it seems that Tulane-LSU is a "historic rivalry." I'm not seeing any evidence of this for Auburn-Tulane, rather a relationship that suggests "long-term conference opponents." The three consecutive scoreless games in the 1930s might be historically significant and sourceable to the point of being a GNG pass. I'm not sure the "rivalry" is, however. Carrite (talk) 20:41, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Undoubtedly Tulane-LSU is a historic rivalry. Aside from location, there was a time when one would always accuse the other of cheating (why LSU's 1908 title is tainted, and one sees an All-Southern player from that era of LSU only rarely). However, my knowledge of the late 30s until the 50s is pretty limited, and playing every year does have me wonder much like Cbl62. Plus, he covers All-America teams from that era at least. Cake (talk) 20:46, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. I'm leaning toward keep. I found an article from the 1930s which suggests that this was definitely a rivalry at one time, though it has clearly lapsed. Mackensen (talk) 22:42, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Mckensen, what we're looking for is significant coverage of the series as a rivalry. Passing mentions of the series as a "rivalry," such as the one you linked above, don't cut it. I can find passing references to virtually every multi-year CFB game series as "rivalry"; passing uses of the word "rivalry" in routine coverage are not magic incantations that save articles about non-notable games series from deletion. We're looking for in-depth discussion of the history and significance of the rivalry to the two concerned programs. Has the rivalry been covered in one or more stand-alone books? Has the history and significance of the rivalry been the subject of in-depth feature newspaper and magazine articles (i.e., those who primary subject is the rivalry)? Does the series receive annual coverage as one of the great CFB rivalries? If you can't answer "yes" to two or more of those questions, it's probably not a notable CFB rivalry. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 23:02, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Oh, understood. I can't give you that. Still, "annual renewal of football rivalry" suggested permanence, at least at the time. Mackensen (talk) 23:09, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Mac, if finding passing references to an "annual renewal of football rivalry" were the standard, virtually every annual conference series in the SEC, Big Ten and Big XII, and most of those in the ACC, Pac-12 and Ivy League would be classified as notable rivalries. The funny thing about real rivalries is you know them when you see them. Most of them are self-evident. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 23:22, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• On top of rivalry meaning simply "annual contest" to some, some rivalries are inevitably lost to time in their significance as well. Say, were this 1950, or were Sewanee still a power, an Alabama-Sewanee article would be necessary. That said, the tone of the article, the persistence of the series, and that it's still ongoing somewhat has me leaning towards keep. It's certainly more significant than Auburn-LSU. It seems to be a before-Tulane-left-the-SEC rivalry. Cake (talk) 23:27, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Cake, I've fought to keep articles about historic CFB rivalries in the past; this ain't one of them. As for "ongoing," this game has been played exactly once (2006) in the last 60 years since 1955. This was a former annual conference series for 34 years that ended when Tulane decided they could not compete in the football-crazy SEC. And nobody has produced anything that smells like significant coverage in independent sources. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 23:40, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I remain uncertain. Here is another mention: 1. Cake (talk) 23:54, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Again, another passing use of the word "rivalry"; could just as easily substitute the words "annual game." Not even close to significant coverage as a rivalry in my estimation. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 00:04, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep while it may not be a modern-day rivalry, it sure seems to have been a major rivalry in the past. And notability can not be lost. Personally, I don't really like rivalry articles--but that's not a reason to delete it.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:14, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• @Paulmcdonald:, please provide links to sources that support the proposition that this was "major rivalry in the past." I've reviewed 34 years of game coverage for this series, and the coverage of the series as a rivalry is not significant. I've done my BEFORE homework, and I don't think the coverage is there. If you believe otherwise, please provide the links. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 13:19, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. This seems like one of the most obvious deletes we've had. Aren't Alabama, Georgia, and LSU enough for Auburn rivalry articles? I could see maybe Auburn-Mississippi State, or Auburn-Georgia Tech for the historical angle, but schools like Tulane and Florida State aren't even in Auburn's top 10 rivals... Jhn31 (talk) 02:54, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think I would have no trouble arguing Tulane-Auburn is a more significant rivalry historically than Auburn-LSU. That is nothing more than conference alignment. Florida was a big rival of Auburn's for a long time, and only recently has this drifted away in significance. They used to play every year and it was definitely called a rivalry by everyone, much like the game with Miami (FL). As a Gator fan ugh for the many years an Auburn field goal derailed the season. If it were up to me right now I think Auburn's rivals, in order, would be Bama; UGA; UF; Tech; Tulane. I don't know much about the Clemson-Auburn rivalry. Cake (talk) 21:13, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, per my earlier comment above the second source presented by Cake. The phrasing "will renew a rivalry dating back to a scoreless tie in 1902" can't be dismissed so easily. Certainly the article should be rewritten to reflect that this is a historical rivalry and is no longer active, but that's an editorial question. Mackensen (talk) 13:12, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• @Mackensen: Respectfully, Mac, if two passing references to "rivalry" in 34 years of newspaper articles make this series notable as a "rivalry," then every annual series -- current and historical -- in the Southeastern Conference is a notable "rivalry," too. The evidence for the subject's notability based on the two linked articles is as thin or thinner than that for a dozen other rivalry articles we've recently deleted. Please remember: WP:GNG requires significant coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources. Right now, we've got only TWO independent sources whose coverage of the subject as a rivalry is NOT significant. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 15:36, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. Trying to pull together some of the coverage to help make a decision. Both teams were major Southern powers in the first half of the 20th century, and they played every year from 1921 to 1955. Not a current rivalry but maybe a significant historic rivalry. Coverage from the early 20th century is not easy to retrieve, but I find four AP wire stories (high level, not local, coverage) to support this being a notable historic rivalry: (1) this AP wire story from 1947 ("The Auburn-Tulane rivalry is one of the oldest and closest in the South."), (2) this 1939 AP story titled "Tulane Auburn Renew Rivalry" and calling it "one of the keenest rivalries in football", (3) this AP wire story from 1938 referring to the "annual renewal of the football rivalry between the Auburn Plainsmen and Tulane Green Wave", (4) this 1936 AP wire story titled "Tulane and Auburn Renew Gridiron Feud This Week". Also (5) this 1937 newspaper feature story referring to Tulane-Auburn as "one of the biggest October rivalries in Southern football" and a series that had become a "guaranteed thriller". Cbl62 (talk) 19:47, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Do you want to know who Auburn's most significant football rivals are? Well, here are some unscientific, but certainly relevant statistics taken from Google web search results:

1. "Alabama-Auburn rivalry" - 540 results, includes all sorts of random references, as you would expect for one of the top 10 rivalries in college football [1];

2. "Auburn-Georgia rivalry" - 166 results, includes some references to other sports [2];

3. "Auburn-LSU rivalry" - 124 results, includes some reference to other sports [3];

4. "Auburn-Tennessee rivalry" - 80 results, includes some references to other sports [4];

5. "Auburn-Florida rivalry" - 66 results, includes some references to swimming and other sports [5];

6. "Auburn-Georgia Tech rivalry" - 47 results, includes some references to other sports [6];

7. "Auburn-Arkansas rivalry" - 31 results [7];

8. "Auburn-Clemson rivalry" - 24 results [8];

9. "Auburn-Ole Miss rivalry" - 17 results [9];

10. "Auburn-Mississippi State rivalry" - 14 results [10];

11. "Auburn-Florida State rivalry" - 9 results [11];

12. "Auburn-Tulane rivalry" - exactly 5 results, including three different results for the same 1947 AP wire article, this AfD discussion, and an Answers.com mirror article.

These Google web search results are by no means scientific, but they are completely consistent with a long-time SEC insider's gut instinct regarding the relative significance of Auburn's various football "rivals." In the grand scheme of things, Auburn-Tulane was not a significant rivalry, and no one has yet provided links to significant coverage of the series as a rivalry. Nada. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 22:04, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As you say, those results are "by no means scientific." This is a rivalry that dates to the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s. A google search is a seriously flawed research vehicle for topics occurring several decades before the advent of the Internet. Cbl62 (talk) 22:13, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Using that methodology, the "Michigan-Chicago rivalry" yields only 2 search results. [12] Yet, that is an indisputably notable historic rivalry. Again, google searches don't cut it when dealing with historic rivalries. Cbl62 (talk) 22:16, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Apples and Oranges, Cbl. The Chicago-Michigan rivalry (and Chicago football generally) were on a downhill trajectory after 1924; Chicago's only post-war victory in the series was against one of the worst Wolverines teams in program history (1934). In the last 15 years of the Chicago program (1925-39), the Maroons had only one winning season. The Auburn-Tulane series was still being played annually until 1955, in an era of mass newspapers and statewide radio coverage of CFB games. If you want to compare the number of Newspapers.com and NewspaperArchive.com search results regarding the Auburn-Tulane football series, and the subsets of those same Newspapers.com and NewspaperArchive.com search results that use the word "rivalry," we can get a truer sense of how meaningful this "rivalry" really was. Then we can compare those results to those for Alabama-Auburn, Auburn-Georgia, Auburn-LSU, Auburn-Tennessee, Auburn-Florida and Auburn-Georgia Tech -- and we can further limit the search results to 1921 to 1955 for apples-to-apples comparison purposes. FYI, the Auburn-Georgia Tech rivalry was at its height during the same decades that Auburn-Tulane series was being played. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 22:53, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Both rivalries pre-date the Internet era by many decades. My point is that a simple Google search doesn't work for either. For this reason, your listing of google search results simply doesn't add anything meaningful to the discussion. A search of newspapers.com for each of the above-referenced rivalries limited to the years 1921-1955 would, indeed, be more telling. Cbl62 (talk) 23:10, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Per your suggestion, a search of newspaperarchive.com for the years 1921-1955 pulls 3 hits for "auburn-tulane rivlary", zero hits for "auburn-georgia tech rivalry", zero hits for "auburn-lsu rivalry," zero hits for "auburn-tennessee rivalry," zero hits for "auburn-florida rivalry," zero hits for "auburn-arkansas rivalry", 4 hits for "auburn-georgia rivalry", 24 hits for "auburn-alabama rivalry".

The result was redirected to Total Drama#Characters. It's very clear that no one is in favor of retaining this 14-word sub-stub. Consensus is split over whether a redirect is appropriate, but four relists later, this has had its time in the sun. As several people noted, redirects are cheap. Non-admin closure.

Need I really give a rationale for this. It does not meet WP:GNG, there are no reliable sources covering "Duncan" only, in fact, the subject of the article doesn't even exist. A character on a low-rated TV show is all. The article doesn't even have any significant content to be merged into any articles, much less sources. Wow, how the fuck did this get here. ceradon (talk • contribs) 00:28, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment You know? Instead of cussing we can talk about this like real grown people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JuvieDelinquent (talk • contribs) 03:15, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong delete. No evidence of any out-of-universe significance of this character. I'm not even sure this warrants leaving a redirect back to Total Drama#Characters, which is where the old List of Total Drama characters now redirects. —C.Fred (talk) 03:19, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Fix title, redirect to Total_Drama#Characters. The character of Duncan is not notable outside of the series, at least not enough to merit his own article, but I do think that there is merit in having this turned into a redirect to the main page. He's a reocurring character and has been in each season of the show, sometimes as a major character and sometimes as a minor character (from what I can see from the fan wikias). It's reasonable enough of a search hit, given how popular the TV show is and redirects are cheap. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:24, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Also I would like to ask that everyone be civil about this. While Wikipedia is not censored and people can cuss, I do have to caution you ceradon that cussing can be seen as hostility by other editors and we do need to be careful to make sure that Wikipedia is seen as a welcoming community. I'm not saying that I don't agree with you in that the character is non-notable and there's nothing to merge, just that you could probably have phrased this a little better and left out the first and last sentences.

• Delete: With respect to TokyoGirl, I do not believe this character is even significant enough to bother with a redirect, but it costs nothing so I would not oppose it.

But I certainly agree with TokyoGirl's remarks regarding ceradon's use of foul language, which was completely unnecessary in the circumstances. The article was less than 24 hours old when this nomination was made, so it is not a situation where the article had been lying around neglected for years. On top of that, it was JuvieDelinquent's second day here and their second attempt at creating an article. I notice they haven't been back since posting the comment below the nomination, so nice job scaring off a new contributor. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 00:57, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Athomeinkobe: Yes, I cursed, but only out of pure dumbfoundedness about the nature of this article. Wikipedia isn't censored. If you're going to let one "bad word" get under your skin then this may not be the place for you. Tokyogirl79's comments were constructive. I acknowledged them (without recommenting), figured out what I did wrong and I'll definitely try to do better in the future, especially with new editors. Your comment downright antagonizes me, and that doesn't come off right to me. Furthermore, your argument is non sequitur. Yes he hasn't edited since the day I posted this but behind that account is a human being who has a life. Additionally, the user's talkpage is filled with scary warnings we use for vandals which may also have been offputting. I'll apologize to the user, if that helps. Damnation seize my soul if I commit an action that could be construed as uncivil, especially to a new editor, the future of this encyclopedia, and I don't apologize.

I seek not to get into an argument with you; these things can turn acrimonious quickly. Neither do I seek an apology – but I do ask you to heed my comment. Thank you, --ceradon (talk • contribs) 01:19, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Just a quick little bit of info: the character has been in every season of the show to day (five seasons as of right now) and he's been in 77 episodes out of the 120 that have aired, predominantly as a speaking character. That's the biggest reason I'm arguing for a redirect- he's been in a large chunk of the show and is one of the characters that people tend to identify with the show. (I think Gwen and Courtney are the other two that many identify as some of the more main characters in the show.) I mostly just wanted to throw this in here for the argument for a redirect.

Below, Snowager votes "Speedy keep and close", so the "speedy delete" vote here should be struck out. Snowager could you strike it out, please? It should be disregarded, anyhow. --doncram 04:28, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Since there is no reply, it seems there was no prior AFD. So the "speedy delete" vote seems to have been misinformed, and should be disregarded? I see there is further discussion below...it may have been speedy-deleted before. --doncram 04:18, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Question: There are currently only six other articles in Wikipedia about individual law firms in Uganda. I would not even know where to start finding reliable sources for these articles. Does this mean that all these articles will be removed from Wikipedia? BTW this afd went up shortly after I added the article to Category:Law firms of Uganda. I would hate to think that my action is the reason this article is up for deletion. Ottawahitech (talk) 15:37, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

the timing is coincidental. I had previously nominated the article for speedy, so it was on my log. I was reviewing the log (for unrelated reasons) and noticed this article was recreated (because it was a blue link, it stood out), and so came to look at the current state of the article. It seemed to still not meed our guidelines, so I nominated it. Gaijin42 (talk) 16:56, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: The article has been speedily deleted twice. Once for unambiguous promotion and the other for a non-notable article. Also, the article has been tagged that it may not meet Wikipedia's notability guideline. The article should still be deleted as it may fail Wikipedia:ORG. Snowager (talk) 16:35, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Snowager: Up above you said that this article was previously deleted per a deletion discussion -- now you say it was speedily deleted. Since there is no discussion in wp:speedy deletions, and articles are not speedy-deleted "for unambiguous promotion" and "for a non-notable article", can you please slow down and explain exactly why you think this article should be deleted now? Thanks in advance, Ottawahitech (talk) 02:10, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Very well. It may not meet the criteria for speedy deletion as I couldn't find the deletion discussion for it, you can ignore the CSD G4 so I can focus on the article's notability and how it was recreated. It should not be speedily deleted but it should be Deleted for the following reasons:

1: Speedily deleted material shouldn't be recreated or otherwise run the risk of going through a deletion discussion.

2: It fails Wikipedia:ORG, as said by Gaijin42.

3: It promotes and/or publicizes an entity, how the article got speedily deleted for spam one time.

Overall, the article should just be Deleted for these reasons. Snowager (talk) 05:30, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• This seems to confirm there was no prior AFD deletion discussion, and I don't see specific evidence that it was even speedy-deleted or prod-deleted, though if snowager says it was, it probably was. Anyhow, whether this is a re-creation or not, fine and good, do let's discuss the material in this AFD. And pls. comment more generally about what makes a law firm in Uganda notable or not. Surely some are worth covering. Is there a source ranking the firms, or giving a top 10? --doncram 04:28, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I know little about the topic let alone the country, and since the country is not well covered in Wikipedia, I hate to see the little we have removed from this encyclopedia.

• sources comment the vast majority of those sources are WP:PRIMARY documents of court rulings where the law firm represented one of the parties. The ibanet link is a letter, written by Birungyi. newvision.org is an article about a lawsuit where the firm is mentioned in passing as representing one of the parties. taxplanet.com is just a yellow-pages list of lawfirms. iflr1000 is a directory listing. None of these qualify for WP:GNG or WP:CORP notability as sources. Gaijin42 (talk) 20:01, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I believe in Gaijin's comment, primary sources, fails notability, recreated after 2 CSD's, so overall, we should DELETE and close instead of keeping it. Snowager (talk) 00:33, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This appears to be Snowager's final "vote" as of now. I asked Snowager to return and strike previous votes. --doncram 18:43, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I am afraid all entries in Category:Law firms of Uganda fail our notability guidelines. Law firms need to be written about by reliable sources to be encyclopedic (notable); that they exist is not sufficient. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 17:19, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, tentatively. I noticed mention at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Countering Systemic Biases, about this AFD and the small category of law firms in the country. I found all 6 other articles in the category PRODed with the identical message, and I removed all 6 PRODs. One is about a law firm that is asserted to be the first and oldest law firm in the country. This one and all the others have sources, are not obviously bad. Will read and browse more, but they all seem okay. Many of them cite some index source on financial-related law firms (IFLR). Does that establish importance? And, could we share views about what distinguishes between notable vs. non-notable law firms in the country, and if non-notable what is your cutoff for covering the firm as an item in a list-article of law firms in the country. Surely some are notable. Surely eliminating all Wikipedia coverage is not the way to develop. Possibly keeping some individual ones, and covering all in a list-article (merging the non-notable ones, rather than deleting them), should be considered. Also please discuss general matters here, i suggest, and let this AFD close, rather than nomming all 6 others for AFD immediately. What sources are reliable vs. not reliable, for establishing most significant law firms in this country? --doncram 04:16, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Question about law firm ranking sources - Further, quick searching I find Katende, Ssempebwa & Co., which does not have an article, is asserted to be "the largest and leading law firm in Uganda", founded in 1969, and "consistently ranked first" among Ugandan law firms, both in some Chambers and Partners guide and in IFLR1000 (try IFLR). Is Katende firm obviously notable? Also I see IFLR cited in this Birungyi Barata article, as giving BB a "Tier 4" rating (is that fantastic, or is that horrible, i don't know). Can anyone figure out whether either of these two sources are good? And, if there's an acceptable ranking, what are the top ones that we should start articles for, before proceeding with deletions? Or, better, merging others into a list-article, say List of law firms in Uganda or start first with List of law firms in Africa. I see no African coverage in Category:Lists of law firms? --doncram 04:41, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Chambers And Partner's, about Uganda law firms, gives some ratings of some firms in "band 1" vs. "band 2" vs "band 3". Gives no "band 4" or higher numbers at that webpage. Would BB be in a "band 4"? --doncram 05:03, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There was a list: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of law firms in Uganda. I do not know if the outcome of that AfD was correct. I didn't run an exhaustive search for sources, and never professed to have done so, despite what others claimed. Likewise, there are similar lists for other countries, despite what others claimed. James500 (talk) 17:26, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oooh, thanks James500! Yes, about that AFD, I don't think the "Delete" decision was correct, from what i can see. The three participants did not seem to be aware of the Chambers and Partners source, or other sources, and mis-interpreted what you said, yes. There are more than 3 notable law firms in the country. In fact I think all 10 listed in the Chambers and Partners source are probably individually notable and certainly to be covered in a list-article. One person asserted there exist no other list articles of type "List of law firms in Foo", which is incorrect: since 2008 the category of Category:Lists of law firms has existed, and one was "List of largest European law firms", created in 2008, since moved to List of largest European law firms 2005. Also there is a complaint the article had been created by a sock, but as someone noted that does not require the article to be deleted. I am going to request a full copy of the article to be restored to Draft:List of law firms in Uganda (redlink now, hopefully will turn blue). Let's develop that, covering at least Birungyi Barata and other six in the category, plus any others within the 10 listed in Chambers and Partners. Ottawahitech, can you help? Also, I will start Draft:Chambers and Partners; I see that it is cited a few hundred times in law firm articles in Wikipedia already, and appears to be a reliable, well-established source about top law firms world-wide, an article is needed. --doncram 18:43, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: at least merge, if not keep outright, so why not Keep?. Given a list-article of Ugandan law firms in development / re-development, the outcome of this AFD should be either "Merge and Redirect" or simply "Keep". In fact, I think it could be closed "Keep" already, leaving a decision to editors of the list-article, about whether the Birungyi Barata article should be left as an individual article or redirected to the list. It doesn't require an AFD to do a redirect. I think the AFD nomination and participation here so far was all in good faith, but I wonder if everyone who voted "Delete" could come back and reconsider, allowing this to be closed Keep. Pinging: Gaijin42, Piotrus, and Snowager could you please indicate whether you re-affirm your vote, or change it? sincerely, --doncram 18:43, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Deonandan is credited as "Faculty Advisor" (his bio states "Executive Editor") of the Interdisciplinary Journal of Health Sciences, which is currently hosted under Deonandan's domain name, and doesn't clearly appear to be well-established. Since the journal itself is non-independent of Deonandan, I don't think that can count towards determining notability in any sense, nor can articles written by Deonandan. Significant secondary coverage is still lacking, and unless those can be provided, I say deletion is warranted. I've found only one sign of a review of his work, (a shorter excerpt from another is on his publisher page) but those alone may not be substantial enough to satisfy WP:AUTHOR. --Animalparty-- (talk) 21:05, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lacking notability outside of Gamergate. Ries42 (talk) 14:19, 2 February 2015 (UTC) Specifically, page lacks notability on its own, and only has notability when linked to the Gamergate controversy. Should be Deleted or Merged with Gamergate article. Ries42 (talk) 14:24, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Merged/Redirect with Zoe Quinn works too in my mind. As a note, there are 10 sources on the article right now. Of them, half of them (5) mention Gamergate directly in the title. The only source that doesn't mention Gamergate in the title or article is the Tumblr source (a primary source). Many of the articles read as articles related to Ms. Quinn or Gamergate, that also happen to mention her latest project Crash Override Network. In reply to Liz, I disagree. To answer your question "Would this organization be notable if a person who is not well-known had founded it?" I submit that without Gamergate or Zoe Quinn specifically being a founder, this would be completely not-notable. I am not intending to make a judgment on the content of the project, and if more is done in the next few months on it, the project may become notable on its own and the page should be remade. At this point though, that isn't the case. Ries42 (talk) 20:03, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep That is incorrect. Per WP:NGO it falls squarely within the guidelines of a notable non-commercial entity. The scope of the organization's charter is at a minimum national in scale and has received significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources independent from the organization. The guidelines further specify that attracting "widespread attention" as "reported by independent sources" precisely because of a "prominent scandal" is a contributing factor to its notability as an independent wiki page, not the opposite as you have suggested here. Deletion for non-notability is not justified per non-commercial entity guidelines. There are rules for different kinds of organizations as to which are considered notable for purposes of having their own Wikipedia page, it is not based on an editor's individual prejudice as to an organization's notability. The criteria is specific and unambiguous. --Modemx (talk) 04:04, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Zoe Quinn. Right now this is an extremely recently launched website and other than some sites announcing that it launched, there really isn't enough coverage for this to really warrant its own article at this point in time. Now I'd recommend redirecting this to Quinn's article since she is one of the two founders and is the only one with an article on Wikipedia. It could go to Gamergate but this isn't really strictly GG related and that article is already long enough as it is. But mostly it's that this is really only GG related in that some GG related figures launched it and it deals with online harassment, but not GG specific harassment. Quinn's article already has a sentence that sums up the website/service in a nutshell and until more coverage comes about, I don't see where this really passes notability guidelines right now. It can always be re-created in the future but this is just a little soon for an entry.. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 14:52, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why are you referring to it as a website rather than an organisation? Haminoon (talk) 00:04, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Because by large the amount of coverage out there refers to the website launching. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:12, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• But either way, I'm just worried that this is getting judged on Gamergate's notability as opposed to this organization's individual notability. Everything out there almost solely talks about this launching, so I'm just leery about keeping this based on what's actually pretty light coverage once you get down to it. I think that it'd be better to have someone userfy/incubate it for a few months and then bring it back when it's received more in-depth coverage. GG is obviously notable and while we can't completely divorce CON from this, we shouldn't be so quick to say that it'd be useful or that it's notable because of GG. I'm just worried about this getting contested a month or two down the line (if it's kept) and someone arguing that the article was kept based on people giving it inherited notability from GG, because it would be useful, and because of emotions. It's not that I'm particularly against this being here, just that GG related deletions can get messy, especially if people think that an article was kept for the wrong reasons. I'd just like to make sure that we avoid that if at all possible. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:20, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Handily meets WP:GNG for independent, in-depth coverage, in this case covered by Wired, PC Magazine, Christian Science Monitor, National Monitor, The Daily Telegraph and more. A trout for the nominator. Binksternet (talk) 15:01, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Keep - Notability is conferred by in-depth, third-party coverage, which this subject has in spades. It is conferred irrespective of the circumstances by which the topic came about. Nobody is denying that this subject came to be as a result of the Gamergate controversy, however according to the sources, the group does wish to operate beyond Gamergate-related harassment, so a redirect to that (already huge) article would be inappropriate. Furthermore, there are persons involved in the operation of the group other than Zoe Quinn, hence a redirect to her article would also be inappropriate. --KRAPENHOEFFER! TALK 16:12, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Keep - While the organization's founders have experienced harassment due to the GamerGate controversy, the scope of this organization is much larger than that group. Considering that it provides counseling to victims of harassment on social, technical, safety, legal and law enforcement issues, especially in the online world, I definitely think it is notable. This article should be judged on the merits of the organization and not on the notoriety of its founders. I ask myself, "Would this organization be notable if a person who is not well-known had founded it?" and I think the answer is "Yes". Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 18:48, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge/Redirect to Zoe Quinn Keep. Organisation is only notable for one event in terms of gamergate. Hasn't achieved anything notable to merit its own article. Avono (talk) 19:35, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: do note that the WP:GNG do not allow us to use our subjective criteria for determining the notability of a subject. The guidelines are clear: in-depth, independent coverage. The topic itself has generated in-depth coverage. I would agree with your logic if the sources mentioned this in passing when discussing Zoe Quinn or Gamergate, however, this is not the case; hence, Wikipedia policy would suggest that this subject merits it's own, separate, article. --KRAPENHOEFFER!

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a reason for keeping. LibStar (talk) 00:38, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In addition to which, Hobart and Darwin are both state/territory capitals and therefore, while maybe not as large as Cairns or Townsville, are considerably more significant and well-known on the world stage. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:09, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Must items on lists be notable according to any guideline? - Shiftchange (talk) 12:04, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

you haven't actually provided a rationale for keep. LibStar (talk) 03:44, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Because the original rationale for deletion is invalid. The list contributes to the sum of all knowledge. - Shiftchange (talk) 07:14, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

should we then have List of tallest buildings in Griffith because that would add to the sum of all knowledge too. LibStar (talk) 07:39, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• No, definitely, the items in a list do not need to be individually notable for an article themselves. Many lists in Wikipedia are defined to include only items that are notable / have articles, but that is not at all required, as is covered in wp:LISTN. In fact it's good to have list-articles to allow for coverage of items, to allow for redirects to the list-article, rather than pushing editors to, say, create an article about each separate tall building in Cairns. --doncram 03:29, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep (revised from "Keep, tentatively") What is the source of building heights? Can sources be added? Anything about the topic of building heights in Cairns? Towards establishing the topic of tall buildings in Cairns is a topic, which is noted to be sufficient for keeping (not necessarily required) at wp:LISTN. It is said above that "OTHERSTUFFEXISTS" is not an argument. In fact, the existence of other comparable list-articles DOES matter, is relevant. We need to work towards consistency now. It used to be that Wikipedia was so incomplete that it was hard to make reasonable comparisons. Now there are reasonable comparables. They do matter. Why indeed these 2 list-articles, when not others on the navbox linking amongst Tallest buildings articles for various Australian cities? --doncram 03:34, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note, there is Emporis source in the article, about heights of 20 tallest buildings in Cairns. Also there is this skyscraperpage.com page about tallest buildings in Cairns, covering 13 buildings. That is 2 reliable sources about the topic of tall buildings in Cairns. (And skyscraperpage.com gives these 18 buildings in Townsville, apparently the 12th largest urban area in Australia). It would be nice to have some text discussion source too. See other Tallest buildings list-articles in other countries. These kinds of list-articles are one really good thing in Wikipedia, they are useful/interesting, it's what Wikipedia does well. --doncram 03:43, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, invalid reason for deletion, as there is no requirement that all or any of the entries on a list have to be notable for the concept itself to be of interest. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 11:23, 4 February 2015 (UTC).[reply]
• Keep, unreasonable reason for deletion. The pages have enough details (and buildings) that are interesting to compare with others and by itself, just as the USA equivalents. I've just added in the Central Park development which is huge thing for Cairns. UnbreakableMass (talk) 04:28, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Thanks everyone for your support in wishing to keep the article. I started it back in April 2013 but have not contributed to the article much due to the stagnant building sector in Cairns. Hopefully things will change soon with all the towers planned for Nova and Aquis both going ahead. The article can only expand and get better in the years ahead.CHCBOY (talk) 07:33, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article reads like an ad, is almost entirely based on primary sources, and written by a single-purpose account. At this point, I don't think the software is notable enough to warrant a separate article. Since this is a fork of TrueCrypt, and probably 99% identical, it could simply be mentioned in the TrueCrypt article. Laurent (talk) 08:28, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: There is a certain amount of ad-like verbiage in here, but nothing that can't be easily reworded without losing meaning. Certainly nothing unsalvageable. In fact much of the structure looks to be modeled on the TryCrypt page. SPA-written, perhaps, though again there's nothing excessive that can't be tweaked. Sources as given in the article do rely heavily on the vendor's own site, but a quick search shows numerous other hits about the product. Since this is one of (currently) only 2 viable replacements for TruCrypt, and has grown past a 99% forking, I think the notability threshold is met. Cleanup needed, yes, but not reason to delete outright. Crow^Caw 23:27, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Yes, it may have characteristics of an ad, but as Crow mentioned, VeraCrypt is currently one of the only 2 viable replacements for TrueCrypt, which has halted all development and is no longer officially available as of last year. The other one is CipherShed. (Please also note that both are free & open-source software.) While it is mostly based on primary sources, the information presented can be independently verified by looking at the publicly available source code. As for notability, a search for "VeraCrypt" on Google shows that it does have coverage from independent sources. Tony Tan⁹⁸ · talk 03:41, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: The article needing a re-write shouldn't preclude it from inclusion in Wikipedia. The article's subject is the functional successor to one of the most well-known cyber-security software tools.

• Keep: I created this page by editing the existing TrueCrypt page and updating it with VeraCrypt's unique characteristics. I am not part of the VeraCrypt development team, just a VeraCrypt user who was surprised to find that there was no Wikipedia page for VeraCrypt, even though there is a page for TrueCrypt (defunct) and a page for CipherShed (vaporware so far).

• As disproportionately well known as Aspen, Colorado may be, its actual population is only in the 6K range — which is not large enough to confer an automatic presumption of notability on its mayors under WP:NPOL, and unfortunately this article is neither sourced enough to get over WP:GNG in lieu, nor substantive enough to make any real claim that she's in any way more notable than the norm. (Nothing in this article suggests that she accomplished anything unique, for example — it just lists a few completely standard accomplishments of the "all mayors do this" variety and details her raw electoral history.) So all in all, this is little more than a misplaced obituary which offers no genuinely substantive evidence of notability. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 23:13, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - The sources used for this article are from independent news organizations, not family sources/obits as stated in previous comments on the Helen Klanderud: Revision history page (Aspen Daily News, Vail Daily, etc.). In addition to Mayor of Apsen, Klanderud held county-wide office as Commissioner on the governing body for the county. While it may be the largest county in the U.S., County Commissioners are increasingly included on Wikipedia as well. From a personal perspective, I tried to create a well cited, biographical article with supporting details, noting Klanderud's political and public career in Colorado and contributions to the region, in terms of healthcare policy, local government, etc. I also tried to make it balanced. My hope is to eventually expand the Aspen mayoral topics to include a Mayor of Aspen parent article with separate biographical articles on the town's other recent and historic mayors, though real-world responsibilities and obligations have delayed this potential expansion at present. All that aside, Klanderud's public career passes the test for inclusion here. Scanlan (talk) 02:19, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Our base rule for mayors is that a city has to have a population at least in the 50K-100K range before it can confer notability on its mayors under WP:NPOL — and even then, the city has to be closer to (or over) the higher end of that range before it's safely beyond any debate about whether the mayor is really notable enough to clear the bar. For a place as small as Aspen, you can't claim NPOL but rather have to get a mayor over WP:GNG by citing considerably more references than this — and at least some of those references would have to be to significantly larger and more widely-circulated newspapers, much more on the order of the Denver Post or The New York Times than anything you've offered here. A mayor in a town of just 6,600 people does not get over our inclusion bar on the basis of five citations to the local newspaper and local advertising directories. And county commissioners don't get an automatic NPOL pass either — just like smalltown mayors, we keep them if, and only if, they can be much more solidly sourced than this. Bearcat (talk) 21:42, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Incidentally, two of those "local" sources are owned by Carson City, Nevada based Swift Communications and are nothing but advertorials for resorts and real estate companies. - CompliantDrone (talk) 21:50, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Aspen Times and Vail Daily newspapers have been published, in one form or another, since the 1880s and 1980s respectively, long before their acquisition by Swift Communications. Ownership of local U.S. newspapers and other publications by larger companies headquartered elsewhere is common and in no way discounts or excludes them as reputable sources, especially for news articles. While not owned by Swift, the same could be said for the Aspen Daily News, a daily publication that has been around since the late 1970s.Scanlan (talk) 03:10, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I find it shocking the state gave any recognition, as culturally the group is neither Métis nor Northeastern Woodlands, but it's not the first time something like this has happened. The 400 people claim is in that one brief article. I don't think it was investigated. Personally, I don't buy it. - CorbieV^☊ 19:32, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The nominator meant minor as in "not major", not minor as in "underage".

He is extremely recognizable and very well known across the world from appearing on Teens React. The YouTube videos he appears in get over 1 million views each. Here are a few:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGo16GG9qTA (11.765 million views) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWIBXhQrHE4 (2.03 million views) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APMKmiPtYYw (7.331 million views)

As well, you can see him on the Bravo website from starring on The People's Couch.

Also states that he is not a minor in this article: http://www.bravotv.com/the-peoples-couch/photos/the-people-of-peoples-couch/item/10123466 http://www.bravotv.com/the-peoples-couch/season-2/blogs/the-egbers-show-me-the-funny

Here is an interview he did:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ_iEqQ5Qso

He has also appeared on high profile TV shows such as Criminal Minds and Key & Peele and films like The Bling Ring.

He definitely fits the criteria. Llbb454 (talk) 05:18, 25 January 2015 (UTC)llbb454— [[User:(({1))}|(({1))}]] ([[User talk:(({1))}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/(({1))}|contribs]]) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

His work is all blue inked with the exception of a few short films. Hoovergroover (talk) 05:25, 25 January 2015 (UTC)Hoovergroover[reply]

Whether the works he appeared in are blue or red links is irrelevant to whether a person qualifies for an article or not. Bearcat (talk) 19:10, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Our inclusion rules for actors do not grant a freebie to every actor who exists, nor to every actor who appeared as a supporting or guest character in a bluelinked production — it's not the claim of "did X, Y and Z" that gets a person into Wikipedia, but the quality of the sourcing you can provide to support the claim that they did X, Y and Z. But as written, this article is relying entirely on primary and unreliable sources, with no evidence provided that he's garnered the level of reliable source coverage necessary to qualify for a Wikipedia article. So no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when it can be sourced properly, but this version in its current state is a delete. Bearcat (talk) 19:10, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know that I agree with you but I understand your argument. Llbb454 (talk) 04:07, 26 January 2015 (UTC)Llbb44|Llb454[reply]

Also, he is a series regular on both The People's Couch and Teens React. Those are neither guest or supporting. Llbb454 (talk) 17:44, 27 January 2015 (UTC)Llbb454[reply]

No type of role — extra, guest, supporting, regular, star, doesn't matter — in no type of production — film, TV series, web series, doesn't matter — confers an automatic notability freebie on anybody if reliable source coverage about the person themselves isn't present to support the article. What gets a person over WP:NACTOR is not the claim itself, but the quality of sourcing that can be provided to support the claim. Bearcat (talk) 19:15, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

And so you're saying that the YouTube videos that are done by partners of YouTube and the interviews that are listed as sources are not reliable enough to support the claim?Llbb454 (talk) 19:51, 29 January 2015 (UTC)Llbb454[reply]

YouTube videos are never valid sources for anything on Wikipedia, ever. And again, what I said about interviews is that they're acceptable for additional confirmation of facts after the notability has been covered off by sufficient reliable source coverage — but they cannot confer notability if they're the only sources you've got. Bearcat (talk) 20:45, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

On the Wikipedia:Reliable source examples page it says this about YouTube videos: "YouTube: YouTube and other video-sharing sites are generally not considered reliable sources because anyone can create or manipulate a video clip and upload without editorial oversight, just as with a self-published website. However, official channels of notable organisations, such as Monty Python's channel, may be acceptable as primary sources if their authenticity can be confirmed, or as a secondary source if they can be trace to a reliable publisher."

The videos listed as primary sources are from the official YouTube channel of the Fine Brothers, proving that the videos of Samuel on Teens React are reliable primary sources. Also, don't forget that he has gone by the name Sam Egber and Samuel Egber in the past. Some of the sources listed are from the past when he used that last name. I say this is a keep.

Murder of Khaled Idris Bahray[edit]

Murder of Khaled Idris Bahray (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

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

A tragic loss of life no matter who the culprit is, but still, the only reason the murder gained press attention was social media and advocacy group speculation linking it to Pegida. At the moment, the man who admitted to the crime is a fellow Eritrean, but it is still WP:TOOSOON to assert that this murder will be remembered in 5, 10, 20 years if the courts find this man guilty - the killing of one person by somebody they knew is generally not notable. It may be appropriate to summarise the episode in the PEGIDA article, but of course to state who the eventual culprit is if it is not a PEGIDA member - avoiding doing so could bring libel charges as obviously, murder is gravely serious '''tAD''' (talk) 15:49, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This case is remarkable, because:

• the general xenophobic situation in Dresden
• the sloppy investigations of police (just started 30 hour after the murder) in a case with an refugee involved
• the conditions of refugee housing in Dresden
• the reaction of public on the murder (criminal charges of obstruction of justice, demonstrations, candlelight vigils, ...)

This article was discussed a lot in the german WP and finally remains. --Schwijker (talk) 11:47, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's undeniable that there is a xenophobic atmosphere in Dresden, and that may be a topic for an article in itself, but for how much it is xenophobic, that looks like it wasn't a motive for this murder. But of course, I opened this discussion to hear the views of other people. '''tAD''' (talk) 12:31, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

in the meantime there was a huge media coverage, also international, and lots of demonstrations.Alice d25 (talk) 15:04, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

and, tAD, yout text above is totally not up to date. Alice d25 (talk) 15:13, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In German article we had the same demand for deletion. Relevance comes not from the incident itself, but the "instrumentalization" by organizations and the press to put fingers in a xenophobia problem of PEGIDA what needs evidence, because its not clear. And the fact is, that all these actions are based on wrong facts. The deletion was rejected because of the need for documentation of this instrumentalization - as a political scandal. So it may be only relevant in Germany. But the lesson for all is: Criticism of political opponents should not be based on lies. Probably you have also better known examples for this :-) --Brainswiffer (talk) 06:23, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This description brainswiffer gives is wrong. It might show his personal interests. Despite the "wrong" assumptions (and there are a lot of reasons for these assumptions, see [13]) of a rascist background of the murder, the above facts given by Schwijker were the reasons for keeping in the german WP. As the discussion of the page shows, there are also very few sources, that show an instrumentalization of the case (which in my pov means accusing PEGIDA protesters). After the discussion cooled down, the keeping of the article showed the opportunity of Wikipedia to give a clarifying and neutral perspective on that topic.-- Amtiss, SNAFU ? 11:48, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

But there is no (NO) connection between this single case of murdering (free from any racism) and any other cases of racism inclusive instrumentaisation of this case (Because of the last we will keep it in German WP as a demand for no lies). --Brainswiffer (talk) 13:23, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you like to look for yourself, see the decision description at the end of de:Wikipedia:Löschkandidaten/15._Januar_2015#Todesfall_Khaled_Idris_Bahray_.28bleibt.29 (post from 01:41, 23. Jan. 2015 (CET)) -- Amtiss, SNAFU ? 14:23, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great :-) I also am for Keep - because the decision in German for Keeping: "daß der Fall als Paradebeispiel für ein reflexhaftes Vorgehen und Vorverurteilung zeitüberdauernd rezipiert wird" translated: because this case is a prime example for a reflexive approach and a prejudgement (f.e. of PEGIDA) - a time-enduring reflection. --Brainswiffer (talk) 15:01, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As I said: it's your personal interest or better POV: on the german article page, nearly no source show the direct accusation of Pegida. Instead most of the sources talk about a xenophobic atmosphere. The Pegida demonstrators do cherry-picking of the media to find something against themselves, they want to feel accused, although the main German media reaction looks diverse and different. (It might be different in the international media. Take care about that when working on the article). I vote instead to have a look at the FAZ report about how the culprit used the situation in Dresden and influenced the media itself. Translation help can be given. (Brainswiffer has earned monthly AIVs in German WP in 2014. As he has rarely been blocked and not in 2014, this only shows that he works in a controversial way, keep that in mind.) --Amtiss, SNAFU ? 16:54, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

how would it be possible to keep a lie? You try to show it. Your mask is not very camouflaged :-) in German WP you have no chance for your view. Hope also here. But the message is: there is no connection between this case and any racist speculations. The murder itself tried to put it in this direction. Look for other examples for your POV. --Brainswiffer (talk) 07:02, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - a subject that is "notable in Germany" is also notable for a Wikipedia article. An AfD discussion should npot be open just to get feedbakc on an article. Bring that up on the talk page.--BabbaQ (talk) 21:42, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: the crime has had significant impact as witnessed by the extensive coverage, both domestically in Germany and internationally. Vrac (talk) 14:01, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, when 3 things are more clear in article (like in german article now):

• There is NO relation between this single case and ANY evidence for racist/xenophobic activities in Dresden/at PEGIDA/in Germany.
• This may exist, but unfortunately there was a political "instrumentalization" of this single case before it was known who really killed him
• His murder is a flatmate, also from Eritrea (arrested, DNS, confession). Unfortunately he also carried the speculations about the xenophobic background actively.
• Keeping here like in German WP) would be an example that the truth can overtake any political instrumentalisation --Brainswiffer (talk) 13:03, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I do not believe such individual schools (sure, "colleges") are independently notable. First of all, if there is relevant, verified, non-directory style content, it can easily be inserted in the main article. Second, this article has nothing at all in terms of content, and no suggestion that it would even pass basic requirements of GNG.
