Delete. Completely unsourced article about a journalist, which just states that he exists and fails to substantiate any actual evidence of notability per WP:JOURNALIST.

Essay that fails WP:NOTESSAY and WP:NOTGUIDE While it is sourced, it offers advice as to how individuals in various groups should apply for aid and comes close to expressing normative views on the issues in some cases, making it a non-encyclopedic essay in some parts and guide in others.

The article, which has many questionable copyright issues involved with English translations, is primarily a lyrics text repository that would be better off on Wikisource were it not for the copyright issues.

• Keep Lyrics repository? Seriously? The Nicene creed is one of the more important attestations of faith of any religion, and, of course, was not originally written in English, so how it has been translated over the years is a proper topic for an encyclopedia article. I am simply not seeing the copyright issues--many of these are too old to be covered by copyright, and those that are not are simply derivative works themselves. Even if public religious affirmations of faith are copyrightable as a class, I remain unconvinced that what we currently have in the article is itself problematic. Jclemens (talk) 18:26, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete This article is wall-to-wall OR and the subject itself isn't notable. Every single source cited is a primary source documenting a particular English-language version to which many Wikipedians shamefully contributed. These versions are then followed by OR commentary about what makes each different. There is not a single secondary source discussing the topic or providing any commentary on the differences. Not only should this be deleted forthwith, I would seriously question every editor that saw this article and failed to nominate it. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:32, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't understand: you're saying one particular liturgical translation was done by Wikipedians? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:31, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Several editors added other versions of the creed from various churches to this article, which contradicts WP:NOT and WP:PRIMARY. Content around sourced commentary never developed; it became a hodgepodge of differing versions. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:42, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Editors are working to expand the article in good faith, and most of what has been added seems to be referenced.

• Keep Lousy page, fails, for example, to cover the Reformation era discussions, mostly about whether ot keep it, but also about the wording, which are probably the most aspect of any encyclopedic discussion of translating this creed. If any of the modern translations excited controversy (as most liturgical wording does) that also belongs in the article. Let us pray that it will grow and improve.

• Keep the article badly needs work, and might be revised to include non-English versions, but this page at archive.org indicates the topic of the Creed itself is widely discussed, and I have to think the various versions of the Creed used by various proponents and opponents, as well as by churches with different phrasing of the creed, probably has sufficient attention to merit a separate article. No objection to revisiting later if I'm wrong, though. John Carter (talk) 19:01, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ANN role analysis:

1) Monami Suzuki [elementary school] (Capeta - main; though the subject was replaced by Mika Kikuchi as her character grew up)

2) Megumi Amatsuka (GJ Club - main)

Only one main role, and for a production that isn't necessarily all that notable. Subject only voiced for Monami for a couple of episodes before the time skip in Capeta.

The result was delete. Our first concern is WP:V, but the general opinion here is that we meet that. On the other hand, there's reasonable agreement that we don't meet WP:N. During the AfD, there was massive cleanup to the article, to the point that what's left isn't much more than a stub. A good evaluation of this is hindered by the difficulty of finding English-language sources.

If it where 50 years older I would go a blind keep on this, but the position/ancestry did not count as much in the post war time.

• (Weak?) Delete. The article is, on it's face, a dictionary definition, as it offers three definitions of a single word. I don't believe that "working at the chalkface" to mean "working in education" rises to any level of notability, so keeping that would constitute an unnecessary fork from, e.g. Teacher. My only question – and thus the tentative weakness of my !vote – is whether the literal "cliff or quarry exposing chalk" idea is notable and not already covered elsewhere. Cnilep (talk) 23:33, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Undecided The geologic use should Redirect to Cliff, as does Rockface. Cliff already says that the rock exposure can be made of many kinds of rock, including chalk. And it has a photo of the chalk cliffs of Dover. As far as the British usage for school, I had never heard that before and from a world view, it would be useful to have a good explanation. Not sure if there is enough sourceable info to support it though. Googling does reveal it is a very common term. MB 04:12, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete In theory, the current article would be redirect to Chalkface (TV series) which would include the definition in the current article. That is currently a redlink, however, for good reason: Searching fails to find much more than simple listings that the one-season series existed. I would have thought that there would be significant coverage for a BBC series, but apparently not, and therefore not notable. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:34, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - the nominator appears to miss the point, which is that these inns are all quite historic, some dating to the 17th century. Now, whether Category:Inns in Bucharest is sufficient to the purpose of recording these entities is an open question (although I would weigh in on the side of the list, at least until the red links are filled), but it is not primarily for travel-guide purposes, especially as some of these have long since disappeared. - Biruitorul ^Talk 07:01, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Innovation (signal processing).

Contested prod. The concern was: Not satisfying the applicable notability WP:POLITICIAN as it's only a local students group, not a national, statewide or otherwise major position, and nothing satisfies independent notability and substance; the sources themselves are either only mentions or quotes, that's not the substance needed for an actually convincing article. Another is that there's no inherited notability from anything or anyone else and this is policy itself, thus not negotiable. Although the article for Twipra Students Federation exists, he's only the "chief organizing secretary" and, again this is for a local group, not a major one, thus this position is not inherited any automatic notability.

I don't agree with a Redirect to Block (Internet). All sorts of things are blocked and unblocked and I don't think Internet blocking is a more likely target of what a user might be looking for than others. If you search WP for use of unblock, you find unblocking of:

• 3G mobile phones
• bridge (card game) move
• telephone caller identification
• storage containers
• mined harbors
• ethernet Automatic Protection Switching
• drain pipes
• subscription channels
• human arteries

It's really just a word with a common definition. I don't think there is any reason for a broad concept article and WP is not a dictionary. That said, WP:UNBLOCK may be the most likely subject a user is looking for. What about a Redirect there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MB (talk • contribs) 19:49, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I oppose the redirect to Wikipedia:Appealing a block as a cross-namespace redirect for a common term. How about Soft redirect to wikitionary and add a hatnote. Pppery 21:23, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That idea sounds good to me conceptually, but I'm not sure what the result would be. You mean body-less page that is essentially just a hatnote (and no longer be considered a disambiguation page)?

On Wikipedia, Unblock refers to Wikipedia:Appealing a block. For other uses, see Wiktionary:Block or Unblock.

I've never seen anything like that but I think it solves the problem. MB 23:31, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MB: Here's what the I'm supposing the page would look like:

Wikipedia does not have an article on "Log/2016 December 3", but its sister project Wiktionary does: Read the Wiktionary entry "unblock" You can also: Search for Log/2016 December 3 in Wikipedia to check for alternative titles or spellings. Start the Log/2016 December 3 article, using the Article Wizard if you wish, or add a request for it; but please remember that Wikipedia is not a dictionary. wiktionary:unblock

• Soft redirect to Wikipedia:Appealing a block. I agree with the nominator that this is not a dab page.

Wiebers one claim to near notability is that she was Miss Iowa, that is not enough to establish notability. She has acted in local stage productions in eastern Iowa, but those are just not on a level to establish notability. My search for sources seemed to come up with the level of sources in the article. The way the reference list is made is a total mess, but so are the sources. One Quad Cities source did not even mention Wiebers name at all, let alone mention the routine it was being used to source. About a third of the sources are PR releases about her winning pageants. The rest is either local coverage from the Clinton County paper or coverage that mentions her incidentally or coverage related to her being Miss Iowa, none of the last shows the widespread coverage we would want to show this title is a notable one.

Comment: SwisterTwister, "being a leader" is not one of the criteria in PROF, and given that the references are all primary there's no indication that PROF 4 or 7 are met. H indices and "how many articles" have been long determined to not be hard indicators of notability. Thus, I think the nomination is valid - there is no indication/demonstration of the notability criteria at this time. Primefac (talk) 05:45, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I'm not seeing anything that comes close to WP:PROF here. He's only an adjunct prof, has low GS cites and a h-index of 4, and contrary to SwisterTwister's assertion only one of his books is widely held in libraries, and it's just a multi-author volume he is a co-editor of.

• Delete as the nomination is exact with the concerns and there's simply nothing for actual convincing of genuine notability, and I believe there's some attempts at shoehorning this by mentioning the major football player soon. Regardless, still nothing convincing. SwisterTwister talk 05:09, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep I have tried to address the major concerns that the editors have on this article. Addressing concerns by Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it and SwisterTwister talk, I added references from various reputable, national news sources, i.e. Inc. Magazine, AOL News, and The Huffington Post, that substantiate that he is a notable, recognized expert in his field. I have removed all editorial adjectives as per Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it comments. On the subject of notability as an author as per DGG ( talk ) and Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it, one of his three books, New Venture Creation: Entrepreneurship for the 21st Century (McGraw-Hill, 2011), is in its 10th edition. On the subject of regular appointment as per DGG ( talk ), I added into the article that in addition to being the founder, he has also been the director of Texas Venture Labs since 2010, as well as the founder. Also, he is a senior lecturer the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin. As per the request to add "more links to other articles to help integrate it into the encyclopedia", I have added over 20 more links to the article. Any other suggestions for change or improvement would be greatly appreciated. Gracephoto (talk) 21:57, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What has been added is still not convincing or sufficient as it's still trivial and unconvincing; also, there's no inherited notability from anything or anyone else, regardless of his connections there. SwisterTwister talk 22:38, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What is actally needed to show notability as an Author are reviews of his books in major review sources, such as major newspapers, magazines, or professional journals. But you additionally will needto remove parts like belong only in a job application, eg. "His fundraising experience includes public and private equities, limited partnerships, corporations, and philanthropy." DGG ( talk ) 00:15, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the helpful information. I will add references to reviews and edit accordingly and hope for the best. Thanks for taking the time to give me feedback - much appreciated Gracephoto (talk) 04:55, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The bundle of sources are misleading because they are mainly passing mentions and unreliable (Amazon, for the most part). Much of this article is composed of trivial information that does not really say anything for notability. TheGracefulSlick (talk) 02:56, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • An interview, if published by an independent secondary source, is not primary. Now, the interview subject's views on himself (if that is the subject of the interview) may not be used for WP:V, perhaps, but can be used to establish WP:N. Common sense needs to be applied, as in the case with all our policies. In this case, Sharp appears to have been quoted as an expert in the field. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 04:07, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment None of the coverage seems to be independent. The Black Belt magazine article appears to be autobiographical ("My Life and Judo") and the article by Don Warrener isn't independent since his company (Rising Sun Productions) produced at least some of Sharp's videos. He doesn't meet the notability criteria for authors and rank alone is insufficient to show notability. I'm not voting yet in order to allow more time to find coverage and show notability. For what it's worth, two others on that 5 man interview panel don't have WP pages. Papaursa (talk) 04:07, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Greenwood was Miss Tennessee USA which is not enough to make her notable on its own. Being the executive director of various state beauty contests also does not make her notable.

Davis' one claim to notability is having been Miss Illinois. This is not enough on its own to establish notability. The article is very heavily reliant on local news coverage from where she is, some of which is still not even about her in any meaningful way.
