The result was procedural close. Moved by creator to Draft:Deep K. Patel. Either take it to WP:MfD or wait for it to be reintroduced to article space. (non-admin closure) ansh666 00:28, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This was created by a sockpuppet of User:Editor2626744. The article was mildly promotional and I've speedied the draft article as such, especially as now the sockpuppet and the master have both been blocked. I have no problem restoring the draft article to a non-sockpuppet editor if anyone is interested in adopting it. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:16, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

References do not show that the person meets WP:AUTHOR yet. Blogs, interviews, Twitter, and self-published references. No further indication of notability found on Google. Seems to be a case of WP:TOOSOON. Page has been created before as Deep Patel and Draft:Deep Patel but I can't find an AfD so a community discussion on this article is probably warranted to put the issue to rest.

Disputed prod. As discussed at Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Adonai_Rocha, promotional tone issues could be fixed, but as noted by Bishonen this is essentially an unsourced BLP (none of the sources discuss him in general) created by a WP:COI account.

• Delete. The sources are a trainwreck as I detailed here. I note the SPA account who created the article has removed the prod template without explanation and without adding sources. This is permitted, but that's not to say it's ideal. I hope, if there are actual third-party sources out there, he's encouraged by this AfD to find them and add them.

• Weak Delete. I've added two references, one from MAM Rio and one about awards from World Monuments Fund official flickr account. None of them can actually support notability. The problem is may be we missing some reference on Portuguese, so may be worth getting someone who can read and understand Portuguese. Also, the article has some serious claims about him being exhibited in "prestigious galleries and museums". In such cases I would expect quite a lot of independent reviews in media, which I can't find, unfortunately Arthistorian1977 (talk) 13:04, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Minor show that wouldn't be heard of at all without a single event. Lack of significant coverage about the show by reliable third parties.

Non-notable individual known for WP:1EVENT. Coverage appears to be local only. Article written by admitted COI. reddogsix (talk) 15:34, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Admitted conflict if interest? This is not true at all. I know this man from a single interview and I have been following him for years. I follow many people for years. Liudmille Titova, Pavel Borodin, Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Tony Robbins, and I have met them all at one time or another. Does this make my contribution less valuable? He is a subject that interests me because he is like Russia's Navalny; I am sure every article on Wikipedia is written by an author that is interested in the subject. This is a conflict of interest? As far as local coverage only, okay. If you wish, I will put some national references. How about from the Chicago Tribune? http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/sns-bc-fl--information-breach-20160217-story.html Or a newspaper in Texas? http://www.theeagle.com/news/nation/confidential-addresses-of-officials-posted-online/article_d3a2e27f-9598-5b57-9f99-d0585c7d0f7a.html

A Conflict of Interest according to Wikipedia is:

"Conflict of interest (COI) editing involves contributing to Wikipedia about yourself, family, friends, clients, employers, or your financial or other relationships. Any external relationship can trigger a conflict of interest. (The word interest refers here to something in which a person has a stake or from which they stand to benefit.)" Aleksandra E. Borodina (talk) 16:56, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I do not stand to benefit, I am not the subject, his family, a client, he is not an employer, I have no financial dealings with him or any other relationships with the subject. The only interection I have had is running into him at events here in Palm Beach and an interview. Of course, none of my own materials are used in this article. That would be a conflict of interest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alekborodina (talk • contribs) 15:45, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. NOT NEWS. I'm not sure whether this is really ONE event or not, but it's too unimportant and too local for a general encyclopedia DGG ( talk ) 19:14, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The "Admitted Conflict of Interest" reddogsix is claiming is from meeting the man one single time and it was at a social event. At the same time, I met Donald Trump and Tony Robbins, but claiming I know them, this would be untrue. This interpretation of the COI is not within the spirit of the policy. There is no common sense or logic being used in this case. Aleksandra E. Borodina (talk) 16:56, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD with a claim for new sources. Non-notable video games/series. I cannot locate multiple reliable independent in-depth sources for WP:GNG, such as WP:VG/RS. Does not appear that the coverage has changed since last AfD. No meaningful hits in custom RS search. The only new source that is probably RS is Discovery Education, but it's only a single one. All the other sources in the article are unreliable or not in-depth. Lots of search hits otherwise, but none appear in-depth, mostly directory entries and generic descriptions. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 14:26, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• What about museum of play and the national parenting center? Aren't these just as reliable as disovery education? - CharlieBrown25 (talk) 21:08, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I doubt they are, but, even if they are, the content is not in-depth. That's one of the three requirements -- for there to be significant content on the topic. NPC is barely a paragraph with only a generic description. MoP is brief generic description and mostly not about the game(s). DE at least has significant content and critical reception in the form of a review, although doesn't state who the author is nor can I find any editorial information, though [7] probably implies they have decent standards. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 21:44, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't think it means much at all when the accompanying review is hardly a paragraph of PR information. They have not listed a single critical thing about the game.

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

This is an OR split of the main list List of most viewed videos on YouTube, and to some degree a POV fork. While sources have documented the top videos on YouTube irregardless of type, they have not broken that down by "non-Vevo videos", making it an unnatural categorization, and thus OR. It's also trying to work around the fact that the bulk of videos at the top of the original list are Vevo-based, but that's how it works, we don't have a say in it.

This would seem to be an interesting topic that newspapers, magazines and/or webzines would want to talk about, but all I can find are links to non-reliable Youtube video compilations of most-viewed non-Vevo videos.

(I didn't get your ping—they only send when you sign your post (with four tildes) in the same edit.) The reliable sources guideline has more about what constitutes a reliable source—we don't need official government sources or really popular pages, but news outlets with a reputation for reliability and fact-checking who cover the topic in depth. This is to say that it's not really about cooperation but the type of available sources. We have examples of some such sources at WP:VG/RS, but I've already searched them for your company and didn't find anything. While we're on the subject, please do keep the COI guidelines in mind when editing. We ask editors with financial affiliations to declare their interest on the article's talk page. czar 15:06, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Czar: Thanks for being a good guide. i think the only reason you didn't find anything that the game industry in egypt are just getting started and this something happened years ago globally in other countries. so it won't get the global attention. but the event was a big impact of of course in egypt and was mentioned all over the egyptian media as it appears for example in reference #7 http://egypttoday.com/blog/2013/12/11/apps-that-make-a-difference. this will be the history of the game industry in egypt. which is so important to record at the moment. Aelpop (talk) 19:53, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That may indeed be the case, but WP is a tertiary source that collects reliable, secondary sources on topics. So when a topic such as this does not have significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources (?), we have to wait until it does to give it a dedicated article. If, on the other hand, there are enough sources for an article on the Egyptian video game industry, that could be an option, but unless you're able to dig up lots of reliable Egyptian newspaper coverage dedicated to this developer in specific, there likely isn't enough verifiable content to write a full article. czar 19:57, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A forum post by a girl talking about the game? How does that make the developer notable? A link to Google Play is a commercial one, and we all know that are thousands upon thousands of video games to be found there, a fraction of which are notable - and again, doesn't make the developer notable.

The sources in the article and given above do not pass GNG. A few are likely be reliable, but they are not nearly in-depth.

• Keep and rename Delete as Queen of the South (TV series). It was made into a 2011 TV series by Telemundo in Miami, Florida. The Spanish article is La reina del sur (telenovela). And one reason we know about this, is because copies of the series DVDs were found when drug king El Chapo was captured last month. The series actress Kate del Castillo was in contact with El Chapo, who is a big fan of both the actress and the series. Currently, an English language version of the series is being filmed in Dallas, Texas for the USA Network. Deadline Hollywood Jan 22, 2016, Central Track Feb 3, 2016. — Maile (talk) 18:26, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note: If you are suggesting to have an English wikipedia article about the 2011 Telemundo telenovela, here it is: La Reina del Sur (telenovela). I don't see any connection between the telenovela and the announced movie (actors, executive producers, production companies, etc. all differ) other than both being based on the same book, so I don't see why those should be merged. –Dark Cocoa Frosting (talk) 19:00, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for that link. I wasn't suggesting a merge. I was suggesting a renaming for a separate article on the USA network series being filmed. Like you, I don't find anything that it was actually made as a movie. But WP:BEFORE we do an actual delete, perhaps we should consider just the renaming. The USA network series has been in the works since 2015, so maybe it would be more prudent to just rename/transform this article for the USA network series.— Maile (talk) 20:26, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment There does appear to be some support in the literature for considering the Iron Age in Northern Europe as consisting of both a pre-Roman Iron Age and a Roman (influenced) Iron Age. See Human Sacrifice in Iron Age Northern Europe: the Culture of the Bog People, google snippets at Local Societies in Bronze Age Northern Europe and Roman Reflections: Iron Age to Viking Age in Northern Europe. If kept, moving to Roman Iron Age in Northern Europe might be appropriate. As it is currently unsourced and I don't have access right now to the sources needed to update it, I can't in good conscience !vote keep. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 17:05, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Rename to Roman Iron Age in Northern Europe ("N" or "n"?), which is the subject here; ie the Iron Age of the lands north of (and during) the Roman Empire but obviously much influenced by it. But the present title is crazy, at least in English - it may be common in books in the local languages, as searches on eg the Norweigian/Danish "Romersk jernalder" suggest.

• Rename to Roman Iron Age in northern Europe per johnbod. In England the Iron Age ended with the Roman invasion in AD 43. In Scotland (which was never permanently conquered) the Iron Age continues until the arrival of Christianity in about the 6th century. In Ireland similarly, the next period is Early Christian. If the term "Roman Iron Age" is used for the period in north Germany (and northwards) when it was influenced by Roman culture and trade from the south and west, we should retain the term, but it needs a qualifier, as its use seems to be limited in geographic scope. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:58, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I was still unable to find in-depth coverage about this program.

• Weakest possible keep. There is currently little information about the topic, and all that can be written is some information and what it does. However, merging it in to OS X would nonetheless distract readers away from coverage of the OS itself, reduce the ability of comparison with other similar programs, and since may compromise the convention to split other software into their own articles.

• Merge to List of OS X components. Here's my solution. Unless someone digs up "reviews" of the Chess game, the only secondary sources we're using for this thing are secondary introductions to OS X that describe the pack-in software (like Calculator and the rest of the unsourced articles in that section of the ((OS X)) navbox). One such source is [11] or [12] (which has some background on its origins). If this is as deep as it gets, a few sentences in a list of this low-level OS X pack-in software would suffice. The closest we have is List of OS X components, which is a simple list right now, but I recommend that it be built out with one or two sentence descriptions (such as the one I just mentioned) since many of the other items on this list have little coverage, similar to the Chess game. This is to say that the other similar articles should be boldly merged as well. czar 03:00, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge to List of OS X components. Czar's solution is the way to go. Surprisingly little coverage has been published on this application to satisfy WP:GNG. I sampled a few other articles on List of OS X components, and most of them are essentially in the same situation. (e.g. DVD Player (Mac OS), Contacts (Mac OS), Stickies (software)) If we fleshed out the list with the content that is reliably sourced in each of those articles, I can see a really solid article formed.

Hi, I understand that this service is provided for information and encyclopedic use only. That said, it is not my intention to promote any product, message, festival, subsidiary, or brand whatsoever. I am a paid intern representing Danny Wimmer Presents and Danny Wimmer; however it is my clear intention to provide only information regarding the history and present projects of the company such as Rock on the Range and Carolina Rebellion. I will continue to monitor and make sure that the language I use is completely objective as to not promote any feature or product offered by the company. The idea is that Danny Wimmer Presents is given the ability to have availability on Wikipedia just as any other promotional company does, such as AEG Live and Live Nation. Danny Wimmer Presents will not include seemingly biased information and if someone in the community thinks that this information exists on the page, I would hope that an edit suggestion would be added to the talk page instead of a nomination to delete the page. I am happy to work with the community to edit out any information seen as biased, subjective, or promotional.

Thank you

• Delete non-notable. Spuderman left a message on my talk page seeking advice. I did a search for Danny Wimmer Presents before I responded, and I should have done the same before I weighed in here with a delete.

The article needs a serious rewrite, but the company appears to meet GNG: New York Times , an interview with some editorial in Pollstar , the primary trade for the touring/concert industry, the Sacramento Business Journal and the Sacramento Bee. I think I would find more references if I had the time to dig deeper.

• Keep I believe with established references from the New York Times, Sacramento Bee and Pollstar, notability is not what is now being questioned, but rather the correct sourcing, documentation and objectivity of the article. I would agree that it is a good idea to WP:USERFY this to be worked on until it is ready to be submitted to an administrator for approval.

• Keep As it says in WP:LISTED, companies listed on a stock exchange are not inherently notable, but "sufficient independent sources almost always exist". It's not just listed on the New Zealand Exchange, but it forms part of the NZX 50 Index, and those are the 50 biggest stocks by free-float market capitalisation. Therefore, any lack of reliable sources is most likely a case of editors not having had a good look at publications that deal with the business sector. A good source would thus be the National Business Review, and the case in point is that most of their archive is behind a paywall. Searching for "Pacific Edge" and then sorting for relevance (their default search order is by date) returns a good number of hits, and I cannot see how this company can be said to not be notable.

This volunteer organization has remained in the province for over 40 years. It is documented extensively at the Provincial Archives of Alberta and references can be found on that page. https://hermis.alberta.ca/paa/Search.aspx?st=Alberta+Ethnic+Language+Teachers+ It is a flagship organization for heritage language schools that began as a result of a Western Canadian push for Multiculturalism. Although the organization is small, it is historically important. It has worked with the provincial government to develop language curricula that have entered the K-12 systems. While one wikipedian has pointed out that there is only an article in the Edmonton Sun, I would like to point out that the references included in the article do not include the Edmonton Sun. Links with other wikipedia pages were made, but were deleted by others. Notablity of the organization must be checked against three historical names AELTA, NAHLA, and IHLA. Gingerrrr1972 (talk) 00:17, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The link you provided seems to be a list of publications by the organization itself, not coverage of it. I've searched the previous names and there seem to be very few results online about it (e.g., "Alberta Ethnic Language Teachers Association" returns a total of 9 Google results for me). Can you provide some links here? You might also want to read this: WP:N. Information on Wikipedia needs to be verifiable. If we don't have reliable coverage of the topic, than we can't create a separate page on it. FuriouslySerene (talk) 14:55, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Furiouslyserne, not sure if I am allowed to address you personally. But I want to say hello and oddly thank you. YOu have forced me to find a list of publications that I had not previously seen. Since I am in the process of documentation, responding to you has been oddly useful. The organization is often listed in other government documents. Here are some of the sources that you requested.Sorry for the overkill.

I honestly cannot figure out what exactly qualifies one for secondary sources, but I would believe that being listed in government sources, qualifies? (I don't mean that sarcastically, but it might read that way). I seriously want to improve the wikipedia article. First I need to know that I get to keep it here. Gingerrrr1972 (talk) 19:28, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• I am sorry but I have looked through all of the links you have provided and none of them have any significant coverage of this organization, from what I can tell. First, when you search the Government of Canada website, you need to use quotations to make sure that the organization is actually mentioned. When you do that, you'll get approximately 5 results (not 1500). If you look at those results, you'll see there's no actual coverage of the organization. For example, coverage of Josephine Pallard is not sufficient. We need coverage of the organization, not one of its members. Other links from the province of Alberta are not "independent", which you can see is an important criteria in establishing notability: WP:GNG. I appreciate your hard work on this, but I do not think notability has been established. I know the rules are a bit convoluted, but a key question is whether or not editors can create a page with content that is reliably sourced from the materials you've presented. Unfortunately none of these sources actually cover the IHLA in any depth. FuriouslySerene (talk) 20:20, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am a believer of stating biases so I will begin by stating that I am the creator of this page along with edmontonihla. I am also a believer in Wikipedia’s processes which are designed to keep the pages relevant. Without the work of the moderators Wikipedia would be a collection of articles about people’s pets or advertising.

From what I can gather from the moderators, this page has one main concern which is the notability of the organization. I have spent time reading the notability criteria and I believe that I can address the concerns. The notability page states: No company or organization is considered inherently notable. No organization is exempt from this requirement, no matter what kind of organization it is, including schools.[1] If the individual organization has received no or very little notice from independent sources, then it is not notable simply because other individual organizations of its type are commonly notable or merely because it exists (see "If it's not notable", below). "Notability" is not synonymous with "fame" or "importance." No matter how "important" editors may personally believe an organization to be, it should not have a stand-alone article in Wikipedia unless reliable sources independent of the organization have discussed it.

If I understand that correctly, the organization needs to be publically acknowledged. There are multiple criteria. These include depth, audience, and independent sources. While the majority of these sources are not mainstream media, these are provincial and federal documents. I would like to point out that this organization has been discussed 1) in getting material brought into the provincial archives, 2) in one of its members receiving the “Citation for Citizenship” in 2008 for her work in founding the organization, 3) multiple partnerships with other Canadian international heritage language organizations such as The Canadian Languages Association (http://www.canadianlanguages.ca/cla-regional-affiliates/), The Canadian Association of Second Language Teachers (http://www.caslt.org/community/community-partners-provincial_en.php). In the latter organization’s it also lists scholarships that the organization offers (https://caslt.org/resources/modern-lang/italian-awards-programs_en.php). 4) Although the organization is not “discussed”, it is “thanked” in multiple federal and provincial documents. Some of these are listed above. 5) The organization has been in the media, but admittedly these are usually not about the organization itself, but rather are about events that it is hosting.

Specifically addressing non-profits, the Wikipedia notability page states: Organizations are usually notable if they meet both of the following standards: 1. The scope of their activities is national or international in scale. 2. The organization has received significant coverage in multiple[2] reliable sources that are independent of the organization.

As pointed out previously and within the links, the volunteer organization has been listed in multiple federal and provincial government documents. I would also like to point out that the organization has historical relevance as it was formed as a direct result of the establishment of the first Ministry of Culture who created the Canadian Counsultative Council on Multiculturalism to support and promote the changing view of Canada as a “multicultural country within a bilingual framework” as opposed to the previous “bilingual/bicultural country” with only two founding nations: English and French. This article is important, not only for its work, but for its place within the history of multiculturalism in Canada. Since multiculturalism is an evolving concept within Canada and really is only 40 years old, it is essential to document its earliest organizations Gingerrrr1972 (talk) 19:59, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment It's got a big name but it's just an Alberta linguist association, isn't it? The former names it carried were Alberta Ethnic Language Teachers Association and Northern Alberta Heritage Language Association, as mentioned in the article. The latter also has a hyperlink but the link leads to an article which doesn't mention anything about the association. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 19:51, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Magoo, it's not a linguist association, it's a heritage language school association. So, I am sure you are aware of children who had to go to Greek school or Chinese school on Saturday. Those kinds of language schools are often called Saturday schools. In 1969, the then Prime Minister of Canada called the country a "bilingual and bicultural nation". This was done to appease French Canadians who were starting to realize that their language has less power than English. There was a huge backlash from Western Canada who argued that other groups were equally as important. Particularly vocal were Albertan Ukrainians. They fought the bicultural ad bilingual label and said that there was no way Canada was founded by two groups. As a result, Canada was declared a multicultral framework within a bilingual country. ONe of the first things that happened after that was the development of the ministry of Multiculturalism. One of that Ministry's first jobs was to form the Canadian Counsultative Council of Multiculturalism. It was a group that founded The Alberta Ethnic Language Teachers Association. The organization changed names three times and became the International and Heritage Languages Association that it is today.

The purpose of the article is document the organization's place in history. As of today the organization works on developing inter-provincally accepted language curriculum (The Western Canadian protocol for International and Heritage Languages), supporting heritage language teachers get credentialed so that they can enter the public school system and they celebrate UNESCO's mother language day. The fact that Saturday schools used to be held in church basements and are now part of a school system is the result of their work. They are often "thanked" in government documents. I never included these things within the article because they are promotional and I don't want to go against wikipedia policy.

As I understand the wikipedians' objections, it is because the organization is not adequately documented newspapers and the soul subject of articles. However, since the volunteer organization works closely with government agencies, it is mentioned there. I want to point out that wikipedia has already approved a sister organization called the Saskatchewan Organization of Heritage Languages (SOHL).

Here are two more published references which list the organizaton:

• Weak keep. "Artist" is inaccurate; he appears to be primarily a poet. Anyway, I'm seeing enough small-press reviews of his books, interviews with him, and coverage of awards he has won or been shortlisted for, that I think he may pass WP:AUTHOR and WP:GNG: [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]. —David Eppstein (talk) 08:08, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• weak keep youngish poet who, as Eppstein says, can be sourced and appears to be taken seriously in literary circles.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:49, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• There are definitely some writing tone and sourcing problems here — it was created at a time when our sourcing requirements were very different than they are now, and old articles admittedly haven't always kept up with the evolution in those standards — but for that very reason, when we run across an article in that camp, we have to take extra care to run a sourcing check, to determine whether the article is fixable or not, WP:BEFORE we rush the article out the door. In ProQuest's "Canadian Newsstand Major Dailies" database, I get 148 hits from daily newspapers not limited to Montreal, which means that there is enough coverage and notability to get this back up to contemporary WP:GNG standards. And considering the nominator's edit history — almost completely blanking Paul Cargnello as an IP, getting reverted almost instantly, then immediately registering a brand new username so they could reblank it and list it for deletion even though its problems turned out to be completely fixable, and then going straight for this — I strongly suspect that this has less to do with any principled concern for Wikipedia's rules and more to do with personal animus against Cargnello and Fiorentino for some reason that's none of Wikipedia's concern. The problems here are repairable. Keep. Bearcat (talk) 00:28, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as, despite the current sourcing, this is still questionable for the applicable independent notability. SwisterTwister talk 07:05, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• While I have heard of the guy before and actually have one of his albums, I fired up ProQuest fully expecting that I was actually going to have to say "delete as I can't add any viable sourcing to fix this". But I get 133 hits dating all the way back to 1998...which means I can salvage it after all. I think I need to start trusting my gut reaction instead of my second thoughts. Keep and I'll take a stab at cleanup. Bearcat (talk) 04:17, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I significantly improved the sourcing last night, so the article is now entirely keepable. While I acknowledge that there were some sourcing and writing tone problems in the version that existed before the nominator restubbed it down to almost nothing, the fact that I was able to revise and re-reference it so easily demonstrates that stripping it down to a bare assertion of his existence was not the correct solution to those problems: the notability was there, better sourcing for it was locatable, and accordingly just erasing the whole damn thing was not appropriate. And since doing all of that was the nominator's first Wikipedia edit ever under this username, I strongly suspect that they were motivated less by Wikipedia's actual rules and more by a personal vendetta (pardon the pun) of some sort against Cargnello.

Appears to fail WP:GNG, WP:BIO, WP:ATHLETE. Ref #3 is apparently to a print ad of a restaurant but does not mention Andrianov by name. Ref #1 cannot be validated because it is behind a registration wall. Ref #4 is a single photo showing a skater in a competition. Also, so far as I can tell (using Google Translate at this point), 2 of the sources are not independent of the subject (and so fail WP:IRS). I am also concerned because, if the 2002 birthdate is correct. then the subject is a minor. Shearonink (talk) 01:25, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

subject fails notability criteria Drdpw (talk) 18:24, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Drdpw: May I ask in what way, or what specific criteria you claim this does not meet? 331dot (talk) 19:46, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@331dot: Winning a single Competitive eating contest, albeit 5 times, does not equal notability as a competitive eater. Additionally, a Wikipedia search for the contest Cordes has won—the Cheese Eating Nationals—comes up empty, showing that the contest itself is non-notable. Also, the news articles used as citations in the article are from local papers, which shows that that Mr. Cordes's notability is very limited. There are wikipedia articles about several notable competitive eaters; Brian Cordes does not appear (to me at least) to be in the same class of notability as them.
