No evidence of passing WP:NUMBER, as neither of the 2 sources in the article is reliable. GeoffreyT2000 (talk, contribs) 17:42, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Mathematics-related deletion discussions. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:46, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. My usual criterion for checking WP:NUMBER is whether the number in question appears early (say, the first half dozen entries) in two or more unrelated sequences of OEIS that are labeled as "nice". It is one of the smallest integers n such that 2^n=7 (mod n) (sequence A033981 in the OEIS) but that one's not nice. It's also early in other boring sequences, A199877 and A034196, and later in some nice ones, but I don't think it's enough. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:20, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this is no 1729 for cultural purposes. Therefore the only possible claim to WP:NUMBER is #1, three unrelated interesting mathematical properties of this integer. None of the properties listed in the article are "interesting" in my view, so not even close. Tigraan^{Click here to contact me} 17:48, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. So far, the page is entirely redundant with the automatic tools linked in it, and neither of the sources is actually a source about 1727 in particular. (I like that kind of scripts, and think Wikipedia might benefit from having its own, but that's neither here nor there for this AfD). Furthermore, this seems to be a fairly boring number. Not even one so extremely boring that it becomes remarkable for it. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 15:16, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep LexisNexis search reveals a few hits but NewsBank which has more African content has over 600 hits (when "golf" is excluded, there are 200). Took me a while to get through all of those, and the vast majority are marginal mentions, but notability is clear: for example, this is where the current king's coronation was announced to the press, it was a key integrated resort during Apartheid (as opposed to the notorious 'ain't gonna play Sun City' about its cousin hotel), and this is the hotel where international organizations and conferences meet at when they are in the country.

Education crisis[edit]

A personal opinion on the "global education crisis" that violates the What_Wikipedia_is_not#ESSAY policy and has no sources. The topic may be notable, altough it appears to be a new idea (see for example http://www.huffingtonpost.com/up-for-school-/the-global-education-cris_b_11448372.html), but the article would need to be completely rewritten to make it encyclopedic.

Pythagoras Award[edit]

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

A non-notable award from Bulgaria. All of the information comes from either Facebook or the Bulgarian government website. Prod removed by author. Bradv 05:38, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This award seems to attract quite a bit of news coverage. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 09:05, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ Weak keep: There is also an Italian one [3]. Neither seems quite notable enough for the English wikipedia. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 13:14, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The notability or otherwise of the local Italian award of this name has no bearing on that of the national Bulgarian award, which, as I said above, has received loads of press coverage. The notability guidelines of the English Wikipedia do not depend in any way on the country with which a subject is associated or the language in which sources are available. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 20:33, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Throwing a massive google search at people is hardly ideal (WP:GHITS). Some of the results farther down pertain to an Australian tennis competition, for pity's sake (Роджър Федерер потвърди участието си на Australian Open). Out of the first four results, the first seems to be about about a guy being awarded the French "Palmes Académiques" (it's mentionned in passing that he has the Pythagoras too), and the fourth is about schoolkids having a math competition and being divided into three teams, called "Archimedes"," Euclid " and "Pythagoras". Only the second and third hits are about the award / a guy being given it. Another random entry is about something else, and the Pythagoras is mentioned in passing among the guy's accomplishments. It would be muuuuch better if you could find *one* good source rather than many bad ones. (Preferably in English, or at the very least with a translation provided, per WP:NOENG). — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 21:53, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Meanwhile, I have found more references to this in English sources. Switching to Weak keep. Weak because the notability still appears low, and the current shape of the article is terrible, so it might be better off if rewritten from scratch. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 22:04, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that I was "throwing a massive google search" at people. Four of the first five sources found by my Google News search (note "Google News" rather than a web search for which 99% of results will be unreliable) have coverage of this award, as do most of the rest. Look at the vast majority of those results that are on target rather than the few false positives. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 22:21, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Mention in passing" is not "coverage", so 3 out of 5 (admittedly, a mention is an indirect indicator of notability). It gets better going further down, though. All in all, it appears that the sample of hits I looked at in more detail earlier was quite unlucky (2 out of 6, with two egregiously off-topic). The award is clearly not world-renowned, and it's only 8 years old, but it seems notable enough in Bulgaria, and that is sufficient for inclusion here. (Though again, the article in its current state needs a lot of work, but that's not in itself an argument for deletion). — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 22:41, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have cleaned up the article a little bit, so that it looks like a readable correctly formatted stub (we definitely don't need a long list of winners, unless they are notable). I'm not terribly interested in the subject however, so I don't plan on going farther. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 23:13, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Thanks to Gamall Wednesday Ida for doing the work that I didn't have the time or inclination to do. I am far from fluent in Bulgarian but my knowledge of Russian, and so the Cyrillic alphabet, was enough to see that there were plenty of news sources covering this award. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:18, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Too minor. Not a major prize. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:39, 21 November 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Once again you have not addressed the available sources, which are what determine notability. And why do you dismiss a national Bulgarian prize as "too minor". Would you do the same about an equivalent national prize in, say, Ireland or New Zealand, which have much smaller populations than Bulgaria? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:48, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A couple of links in English: [4], [5], and an auto-translated one [6]. There are plenty of the same type to be found. This is an official prize by the Bulgarian government, the ceremony for which involves the Deputy Prime Minister of Bulgaria (for instance Daniela Bobeva and Meglena Kuneva at two ceremonies I've read about) and the Minister of Education and Science (eg Todor Tanev), and it is deemed worth making announcements about by non-Bulgarian universities when one of their members gets it. It's clearly not the Nobel, Fields or Turing, but it's a serious thing nonetheless. A serious national award from a European state in good standing should definitely be included here. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 00:40, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Ministry of Education and Science (Bulgaria). Looking at the above conversation, I don't see any sources that establish notability as they are all just passing mentions of the award. Those would be good enough to mention on individual BLP's that someone got the award, but the award itself doesn't appear to have standalone notability. If this was notable for an award, there should be sources delving into the history of the award, why it was established, etc. Maybe in the future that will happen since it was only founded in 2009, but not yet.

Comment After this AfD closes in a couple of days, I suggest the category be speedy-deleted under WP:G6.

I apologize if I had misjudged you -- a new account appearing and instantly creating articles on non-notable businesspeople is a highly suspect and common activity.

Keep Thanks, @Shawn in Montreal:--and no worries. Coming from your side of things, it makes sense that I would be a suspect. In regard to the nomination of this article, I'd like to counter that this does meet notability. From wiki: Notable means "worthy of being noted" or "attracting notice." Wikipedia bases its decision about whether an organization is notable enough to justify a separate article on the verifiable evidence that the organization or product has attracted the notice of reliable sources unrelated to the organization or product. If we look carefully at the cited sources, in this case these are the 'reliable sources' that noticed the 'organization or product' we will find that this includes three separate academic institutions (respected and world famous, no less) and additional articles in which Shuflix is squarely the focus of the news pieces (a parameter you suggested in my talk page to look out for). I do think that it may be viable to expand this article in the future and make the article more attractive. Andresramon (talk) 00:27, 5 December 2016 (UTC)Andresramon[reply]

Merge Since this was a school assignment, perhaps it should be moved back to sandbox, or just have the AFD delayed. But if we just treat this as a new article, it is really original research. Perhaps it could be transwikied to Wikiversity. But on this encyclopedia parts can be merged to perfluorocarbons. Most of the content would be also undue or original research for Microwave popcorn. Unless someone has actually written about disposal hazards of Microwave Popcorn Bag, then the environmental aspects are all OR. The bag is probably a notable topic in itself, but this page hardly talks about it. PS the Chemistry Project is keeping an eye on this class's work, so even without this AFD it would have been merged/redirected somewhere anyway.

Comment – It's not clear to me why there needs to be a unique preparation for a food for there to be an article about it. Plenty of countries have notable traditions around tea; numerous articles exist about those. It's not clear to me why the Turkey article is uniquely worthy of deletion. Also, for the record, don't delete half of an article (much of it sourced) and then submit it for deletion. It's disingenuous. Rwenonah (talk) 04:13, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Clear cases of WP:OR ought to be deleted. Turkish tea refers to plain black tea with boiled water, and the preparation is exactly the same all over Africa and Asia. There is nothing particularly Turkish about it and neither it is known as Turkish anywhere in the world (see Samovar), unlike the Turkish coffee. As for the rest, where are those articles? If so, they could be also nominated for deletion or merger. As an example, English tea redirects to Black tea (because that's what it is). --92slim (talk) 04:29, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't a clear case of WP:OR. There are plenty of sources on the page in question.

Please don't default to "English" to refer to Britain-wide characteristics; British tea rightly redirects to Tea in the United Kingdom. See also Russian tea culture or Indian tea culture.
I don't understand this obsession with a unique preparation; Russian tea is similar to tea drunk in Central Asia and British-style tea is drunk everywhere, with neither uniquely known in that way, but articles still exist. What's important is that local tea culture is in some way distinct or seen as nationally important, which seems the case with Turkey. Rwenonah (talk) 04:35, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There is no such thing as Turkish tea. No one is talking about Tea culture, or Tea in Turkey. And no, there aren't any sources that refer to Turkish tea - only sources that point to irrelevant facts that don't match the article and citation tags for WP:OR. --92slim (talk) 04:42, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
To report what I put on the talk page: here are some sources that i found by briefly googling the concept:
"Classic Turkish Cookery", by Ghillie Bassan, pg. 211

"The Art and Craft of Tea", by Joseph Wesly Uhl, pg. 110

"Tea and Tourism", by Lee Joliffe, pg. 36.

"Global Tea Breeding", pg. 313.

So evidently reliable sources do believe that there is such a thing as Turkish tea. Do you have sources saying otherwise? If not, please stop asserting it doesn't exist. Rwenonah (talk) 14:49, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No, that's about black tea, not the abstract concept you just invented called "Turkish tea". I'll repeat it again: no such thing as Turkish tea, English tea or British tea. Maybe it refers to Black tea in Turkey, or variaties and tea blends. 92slim (talk) 15:25, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(ec) keep The nominator argues that No one is talking about Tea culture, or Tea in Turkey. However, the hatnote on the article explicitly says that the article is intended to be about "the general topic of tea in Turkey", and the article is in Category:Tea culture by country. They argue that There is no such thing as Turkish tea, but this is a) arguably false: there certainly is such thing as tea that comes from Turkey, tea that is consumed in Turkey, and tea that is prepared in the manner in which it is in Turkey (whether or not that manner is functionally distinguishable from that of nearby countries), and b) irrelevant: something doesn't have to exist to be notable, only be covered in reliable sources. Daleks don't exist, and yet we have an article on them. In fact, it seems as if "tea in Turkey" is notable: here and here appear to be two relevant articles, though unfortunately I do not have full access to either. The argument that the article would be better titled "Tea in Turkey" could be made, but that's no reason to delete the article in its entirety. Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 14:55, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There really is no such thing as "Turkish tea", either in its brewing process, its serving, or (beyond the mere fact if it being harvested from tea bushes grown in Turkey) in its type. It's done the same throughout the whole middle east and neighboring countries. Yes, the custom of drinking that quantity of tea might be particular to Turkey, and the shear number of tea shops that serve or deliver the stuff might be unique to Turkey, but that doesn't make the tea itself "Turkish tea" - and nobody ever calls it or markets it as 'Turkish tea", it is just tea (çay). Foodstuffs with national or regional names attached to them have to have some proper justification for that name attachment.

The deleted material was all off-topic padding. It was content dealing with commercial tea production in Turkey, content about tea drinking in Turkish society, and some stuff about "Turkish herbal teas" (which are actually a very recent innovation, inspired by European and American products, and as Turkish as a Coca-Cola clone can of Cola Turka is a "Turkish soft drink"). Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 20:34, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
it's odd, but all of that sounds relevant to an article about tea in Turkey. It's especially odd you'd use an example of a Turkish product inspired by foreign influences which has an article to justify deleting a similar article. Rwenonah (talk) 20:48, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The article isn't about tea in Turkey! Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 22:42, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Turkish tea is a type of tea is what is being specifically claimed in the first sentence of the lead, and the article is titled "Turkish tea" to match that specific claim - so it is NOT about general tea drinking in Turkey, the article is about a claimed-to-exist specific type of tea called "Turkish tea", a claim which however is not supported by reality or by sources. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 17:33, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think Tea in Turkey (as per Tea in the United Kingdom) as a title would be more accurate for this option (or Tea drinking in Turkey if only the consumption side is going to be covered). There is nothing specifically culturally "Turkish" about any of it - the tea and its preparation is exactly the same in neighboring countries, and inside Turkey do Kurds, Laz, etc., not also drink tea? Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 17:40, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

But is the tea consumption in neighboring countries not indelibly linked to centuries of proliferation of Turkish culture throughout the region under the Ottomans? Anyway, yes, I think tea in Turkey is fine. The typical organization, if you look at Category:Tea by country, is X tea for tea production and varieties, and X tea culture for tea drinking. Tea in Australia, Tea in the United Kingdom and Turkish tea are the exceptions to the norm. But then we've got unpaired articles like Argentine tea culture, which covers production, and Vietnamese tea, which covers tea culture. I'd say there's enough precedent for us to choose our preference from among Turkish tea, Turkish tea culture and tea in Turkey. Ibadibam (talk) 18:47, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There were no centuries of tea drinking under the Ottomans! It is an creation of the 20th century, with no history or uniqueness substantial enough to justify a label "culture". I think if we are going to have an article about tea in Turkey it might as well cover the production of it in Turkey too.Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 03:03, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If anything, the fact that promoting tea drinking was a mechanism by which Kemalist national identity was established in the 20th century makes it more notable - and more unique to Turkey. Rwenonah (talk) 03:18, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That's very interesting. Not that it bears on this discussion, but if tea has only reached widespread consumption in the last 100 years, then why do you suppose tea customs are so similar among Turks, Arabs, Azeris, Persians, etc.? Usually such similarities are rooted in deeper history. Ibadibam (talk) 22:28, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I disagree. This and similar lists are useful in showing in one place the results between two Test-playing nations. If WP is to claim to be encyclopedic, then this is the kind of list that could very much answer a reader's question, which is surely what an encyclopedia is about.

Comment. It clearly fails WP:NOTSTATS because, quoting from that policy, "Any statistics should be accompanied by explanatory text providing context". I would argue for "should" there to be replaced by "must" and in fact I'm going to propose that. This article provides no context at all apart from a very short intro which simply summarises the statistics. There is no mention at all of any people from either NZ or WI; no mention of relations between the teams; highlights, controversies, etc. If it had a decent amount of narrative that provided context, I would agree that it should be kept. Thanks. Jack | ^{talk page} 12:57, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Response to comment. WP:NOTSTATS is specifically against excessive use of statistics, but also actually states that where stats are appropriate then putting them in tables can help make them more accessible. I'd argue that this is what has been done here, but I'd also argue that this article (and its confreres) is factual information that lends itself to a tabular form, and barely qualifies as "stats" at all. As and when New Zealand next play West Indies, I might well want to know how many times they've played each other in the past and what the score between them is in terms of series. Where else am I meant to go to look apart from my friendly, all-inclusive Wikipedia? I don't mind if you want to add more information to this article about highlights, controversies etc. But these articles have a value. Johnlp (talk) 18:27, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

AfDs for this article:

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

A BLP that lacks reliable secondary sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail. A WP:PORNBIO pass is questionable, as the XRCO Award for "Unsung Swordsman" is a lower tier award, given that the "swordsman" is unsung.

The AfD in June ~~2015~~ 2016 closed as "keep" (which was a bit surprising to me) on the strength of the argument for the two Swordsman awards. The consensus at adult entertainment AfDs seems to have shifted since then, and much more scrutiny is given to sources (or lack thereof) vs a technical SNG pass. The AfD was not well attended, so perhaps a new discussion is warranted. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:00, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I just looked at the first AfD (via the above link) and that AfD appears to have been just a few months ago (in 2016), NOT 2015 as the nominator stated; so I don’t know what “consensus at adult entertainment AfD could have shifted” in a few months. The first AfD was opened on 7 June 2016, closed on 15 June 2016 with all 3 new editors voting (in a 7 day period) "Keep." All 3 editors gave very good reasons for their "Keep" vote. These reasons still seem valid to me. There were no “Delete" votes for the first AfD (other than the nominator, Atlantic306). One of the editors of this second AfD (Atlantic306) voting for a “Delete" is the nominator in the first AfD. The other editor (86.17.222.157) voting for a Delete in this second AfD added some negative comments in the first AfD, but did not vote. The nominator of this second AfD states that "the first AfD was not well attended so perhaps a new discussion is warranted," but I would think that 3 editors voting (within a 7 day period; and all voting "Keep") would be considered "well attended." The 3 editors that voted "Keep" in the first AfD were as follows: User:Rebecca1990, User:Wikiuser20102011 and User:Guy1890. User: Zootsuit1941 Zootsuit1941 (talk) 22:48, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - NOTE: I've again recently edited the article under consideration here. The subject of this article has "won a well-known and significant industry award", namely the XRCO Award for "Unsung Swordsman" twice.

Sending an article to AfD less than 6 months after it's been Kept at a very recent AfD is at least mildly disruptive and likely indicative that the subject here just isn't liked by the nominator of this AfD. Guy1890 (talk) 06:22, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is perfectly normal, and not at all disruptive, for the suitability of a topic for Wikipedia to be reassessed after such a time, especially when the previous discussion was far from unanimous, and the nominator gave policy-based reasons for deletion without giving any indication of any like or dislike. You may disagree with those reasons, but you shouldn't try to read the nominator's mind and characterise them as "just isn't liked". And surely the word "unsung" in the name of this award equates pretty well to "unnotable" in Wikipedia-speak, because both indicate a lack of coverage in reliable sources. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 18:47, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as fails PORNBIO & GNG. –Davey2010^Talk 23:41, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Porn is one of those subject areas where we have a tremendous problem with the active editors trying to create their own special exemptions from having to actually get the topics over WP:GNG — such as an excessive reliance on XBIZ (a user-generated industry PR trade blog) in lieu of actual reliable sourcing, or the notion that even though any other award in any other field of endeavour has to be sourced to media coverage about that award before winning or being nominated for it counts as a notability claim, porn should somehow get a special dispensation to use the award's own self-published website about itself as the source. (Never mind that the existence of reliable media coverage about an award is how we determine whether that award is notable enough to count as a notability claim — in the isolated standalone case of porn, we're supposed to accept that something is a notable award just because somebody asserts that it is, regardless of its sourceability or lack thereof.) I want to stress that I'm no prude — I'm as much an aficionado of porn as the next horny single guy — but at the Wikipedia level, porn does not get to make up its own special subject-specific exemptions from having to follow the same content rules as any other subject area. SNGs do not create exemptions from having to pass GNG on the sourcing, but serve merely to clarify the types of things that are accepted as notability claims — but the claim does still have to be sourceable to a GNG-passing volume of reliable source coverage before the SNG is actually passed, and SNGs do not confer exemptions from RSability just because passage of an SNG has been claimed. Bearcat (talk) 18:10, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - XBIZ is not "a user-generated industry PR trade blog"...it is merely an adult film industry trade magazine that is certainly not "user-generated" by any means. The idea that any awarding organization cannot be used as a reliable source for who won (or was nominated for) one of its awards is an argument that has been dismissed out of hand here at AfD for many years now. The specific award ceremony in question here (the XRCO Awards) and its winners have been covered in the past by the likes of the LA Times and several books. Guy1890 (talk) 05:33, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody ever said that an award's own self-published website about itself is untrustworthy for verification of who won its own awards. But what an award's own self-published website about itself cannot do is constitute evidence in and of itself that the award is notable enough to make the fact of winning it a valid notability claim in an article about a person. The latter most certainly does depend on the extent to which reliable sources which are independent of the awarding organization's own self-published content about itself do or don't treat the winning of that award as news — the extent to which an award makes its winners wikinotable because they won it is a factor of the extent to which the media do or don't devote their time and resources to creating news content about "so-and-so wins XBIZ award".

By comparison, winning an Academy Award constitutes notability for a film industry worker because the media covers the Academy Awards as news, and winning a Giller Prize constitutes notability for a writer because the media covers the Gillers as news — yet lots of other film or literary awards (e.g. "Star Wars Fan Film Awards") also exist which don't get media coverage, and thus don't count as notability claims for their winners just because the award organization issued a press release or named the winners on its own website. If "the award is verifiable on the granting organization's own website" were all it took to hand an award "makes its winners encyclopedic" status, we would have to start keeping articles about winners of local "battle of the bands" competitions and high school poetry contests — the extent to which media treat the winning of that award as news is what defines the difference between an award that is notable enough to make its winners notable for winning it and an award that is not.

What the award's own website about itself is good for is verifying things in case of conflict — for example, if two different sources are in conflict about which year a person won their award, then the award's own website is the ideal place to look for verification of which source was right and which source was wrong. But the award cannot self-publish itself into being notable enough to make its winners eligible for articles on the basis of having won it, if the winners can't actually be RSed over GNG. Bearcat (talk) 16:00, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

One of the citations for one of the relevant award wins in this case here is cited from XBIZ (not from the awarding organization itself - XRCO), which is a reliable source that is both independent of the awarding organization and of the subject of this Wikipedia article here. The notability standard primarily in question here is PORNBIO ("Has won a well-known and significant industry award."), which has been intentionally modeled off of the ANYBIO standard ("has received a well-known and significant award or honor"). The standard here is basically whether or not the awarding organization itself is "well-known" within the adult film industry (XRCO certainly is) and whether or not the specific award category is "significant" (or basically a major award, which is also true in this case). The "Star Wars Fan Film Awards", local "battle of the bands" competitions, and high school poetry contests are obviously not well-known and significant awards. Also, arguments that basically boil down to that something just isn't encyclopedic, which is unfortunately what many anti-porn arguments basically boil down to in the end, aren't to be given any weight here at AfD. Guy1890 (talk) 04:54, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The standard for whether an award win passes WP:ANYBIO is whether the person got over WP:GNG by garnering media coverage for the award win or not — "won an award" does not create or confer an exemption from having to source the winner over GNG. Like any other SNG, ANYBIO cannot be passed just by asserting that it's passed — it is passed only when reliable source coverage can be shown to properly support its passage. And while you're right that the Star Wards Fan Film Awards, local battle of the bands competitions and high school poetry contests are not well-known or significant awards, the lack of a GNG-passing volume of media coverage for those awards is what makes them not well-known or significant. We don't apply personal opinions to determine what's a significant award and what isn't — we measure the media coverage that does or doesn't exist about the award and its winners. If the award gets a GNG-passing volume of media coverage, then it's a significant and notability-conferring award regardless of whether any individual editor personally cares about it or not — and if it doesn't get a GNG-passing volume of coverage, then it's not a significant or notability-conferring award no matter how desperate an editor may be to create new GNG-dodging inclusion criteria in his pet subject area. Anybody can come along and assert that any award, even the battle of the bands competition or the Star Wars Fan Film, is "significant" enough to merit an ANYBIO pass — the depth of media coverage that does or doesn't exist about the award is how we determine whether that assertion is right or wrong. Bearcat (talk) 16:29, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"the lack of a GNG-passing volume of media coverage for those awards is what makes them not well-known or significant"...no, that's what makes those awards non-notable. There's been a longstanding difference at AfD between a notable award (or award ceremony - one that simply might have a Wikipedia article written about it) and whether or not those awards are "well-known and significant", which is a higher standard than just being notable. I'm sorry, but these are longstanding guidelines that shouldn't have to be explained to anyone whose spent any significant amount of time at AfD in this (or really any other) subject area. "Anybody can come along and assert that any award, even the battle of the bands competition or the Star Wars Fan Film, is 'significant' enough to merit an ANYBIO pass"...no, they really can't. AfDs like this run on consensus, and one is never going to get consensus for those kind of claims. Guy1890 (talk) 08:33, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, anybody most certainly can come along and simply assert that any award in existence is "significant" enough to merit an ANYBIO pass — for someone who staked so much of this comment on what should or shouldn't have to be "explained to anyone who's spent any significant amount of time at AFD", you sure don't seem all that aware that AFD routinely sees "votes" on the order of "Keep because he won the [Star Wars Fan Film Award/North Palookaville Battle of the Bands/Jackson Collegiate High School Poetry Contest/Employee of the Month at Arby's] and therefore passes ANYBIO". It is an argument that can be attempted for any award that exists at all, and actually has been tried for many more awards than we actually accept as "notability because award" passes — whether we take the claim seriously or not is determined by whether or not reliable sources can be shown which prove that the award is really as significant and noteworthy as the claimant asserts that it is. And, conversely, it is entirely possible for someone else to argue that even a highly notable award like the Giller Prize or the Prix Goncourt is not a well-known or significant award because they've never personally heard of it before — yes, it's a stupid and ethnocentric argument, but it's one that can be, and actually has been, seen in real AFD discussions too. So in both cases, the determining factor is not the mere assertion of whether an award is "well-known and significant" or not — it's "can the depth of reliable source coverage be located to demonstrate how well-known and significant the award really is or isn't?" Bearcat (talk) 17:09, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete.Subject fails PORNBIO and the GNG. Whether an award is sufficiently well-known and significant to indicate presumptive notability depends both on the awarding organization and the award category. The standard is a proxy for whether award recipients are likely to have generated enough independent reliable coverage to satisfy GNG requirements. An award as an "unsung" performer is premised on the idea that the subject has been inadequately covered, a point reinforced in the case by the absence of reliable sourcing. A Gbooks search turns up only one passing mention; a GNews search turns up only an isolated quote (aside from a castlist or three). Even if the award were enough to technically pass the SNG, that would be overridden by the lack of the independent reliable sourcing needed to sustain a BLP. And most XBIZ coverage, whatever the subject, is client-generated, not independent; XBIZ is a component of a PR business, AdNet Media, and extensively publishes/republishes its client's press releases/PR copy, sometimes with minor touchups. There is some independent journalism in its magazine, but not much, and it is difficult to identify that relatively small share of its output. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

I just came across this, "Ruben Dante" I just made a page for, I didn't realize this one existed, however He goes by his First middle and last name, Ruben Landon Dante, thats probably why there is two. The fact that he was chairmen of new media at SAG wouldn't be listed on the New SAGAFTRA website, we talked about this when I initially interviewed him for a book, the reason being is that SAG has merged with AFTRA and archived information simply isn't something they keep in the website however it has been independently verified by IMDb, weather its a notable position, well yes 2011 was when Netflix and Hulu where seeing huge growth without precedent, kind of why that position was particularly important at the time. I just wrote what seems to be mostly common knowledge except for the Options Table so it doubt it would sound promotional in anyway there is nothing suggested or hinting at where or not anything he is saying or doing is a good or bad thing, maybe even seeming more bad than good as his position in new media was quite fiscally conservative and the union wasn't too happy about it nor where the actors. You can surely delete this article and mine, but he has been referenced a bit especially lately so odds are they will keep popping up. Furthermore there are far less notable people, especially as actors that are listed in Wikipedia with little to no serious mainstream credibility at all, If Nothing else he was on the Disney Channel for some time as well as Feature Films. His entertainment company has more than enough articles on its own from various magazines and Amazon's IMDb itself, Not to mention the Hollywood Reporter, Hollywood Advocate, As I've been looking around, it seems less and less publications archive anything online to reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DenniseShull (talk • contribs) 04:01, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I can't find any secondary references to him as an individual save for IMDb, whose information has apparently been written by the PR department of his company. In addition to there being no reference of his position at the SAG I am skeptical that being what seems to be a middle manager with no lasting impact reaches the threshold of notability anyway. The major claim to notability seems to be his founding of a website called All Things Hollywood, but secondary coverage of that company is lacking as well...

That is Actually incorrect, he is not Most Prominently known for his "All Things Hollywood" he is most knows as a trader, and is Most referenced as a Financial Figure NOT ATH, that is just how he got his footing, The only thing anyone related to Ruben Landon Dante had to do with his IMDb is his Biography as it had been continuously inaccurate, he has no control over anything else on that page, if you don't believe that, go try to edit someone's page on there. He is Hardly or At all involved with All Things Hollywood or as an actor anymore, thus I Don't see why anyone on his team would be invested in trying to give him any Notice in that regard, when I made the page I intended it to be more for college students researching money managers in mind not really Hollywood Types.

He was an Actor On Major Cable and Film, not a "Middle Manager" I'm not sure what c628 meant by that, in fact I don't believe he ever did or does anything in a middle management position given that he seems to be a big proponent of "Direct Access" everything especially in trading an investing.DenniseShull (talk) 04:52, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
