An article should generally be about just one topic, but this one appears to be about three different definitions of one term; and a disambiguation page must not have sources in it, so is not appropriate either. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 22:37, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as a broad concept article per WP:DABCONCEPT. The three types of psuedo-ring are all born of the ring concept, are capable of being described in an article and need more than just links to target articles--the refs are valuable for verification of the different definitions. Hence treating this as a broad concept article seems reasonable. --Mark viking (talk) 23:00, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Mathematics-related deletion discussions. Everymorning (talk) 23:28, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep As there seems to be evidence that the term is commonly confusable... or as common as you can get when discussing advanced mathematics. It's not really a disambiguation page, it's a page explaining that one term is used three different ways within the same field of use, and is thus confusing, even to those who use the term. That's a valuable thing to explain. With disambiguation, the same term is used by different people in different fields of use... within their field, there is no confusion as to what is meant. Here, an abstract algebraic mathematician hearing the term from another abstract algebraic mathematician would still have no clue what is being talked about unless the specific definition is laid out IN THAT CONVERSATION, and that the very next conversation might use the term with a completely different definition. Fieari (talk) 00:05, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as per WP:DABCONCEPT. This term has been confusing students (and to some extent mathematicians) for many years. It is useful to document that three different beasts may hide under the same name, and to encourage people to refrain from using this ambiguous term. J.P. Martin-Flatin (talk) 08:54, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - Per Wikipedia:Notability (high schools). This is the reason for WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. It's a secondary school, as such, there's absolutely no reason to doubt that WP:NEXIST applies. Fieari (talk) 00:19, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • SCHOOLOUTCOMES, an essay, makes no pretense at replacing the guidelines: it explicitly references them. More importantly, the introduction to the essay reminds us that "notability is demonstrated by the mustering of evidence that an article topic is the subject of multiple instances of non-trivial coverage in trustworthy independent sources" and cautions us to "[a]void weak or illogical arguments, such as 'Notability is only an optional guideline' or 'We always keep these articles,'" WP:OUTCOMES § Citing this page in AfD, which appears to be your argument. Also, NEXIST clearly applies here: "once an article's notability has been challenged, merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially if time passes and actual proof does not surface." No one, including you, has pointed to any independent sources giving the subject non-trivial coverage. (The line in the government document is the furthest thing from that.) Rebbing 02:21, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • You have my foundation backwards. WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is sortof a summary of the result of the essay Wikipedia:Notability (high schools), which explains WHY "Keep" is always the outcome for secondary schools. I, and many many many other wikipedians, fully agree with the essay Wikipedia:Notability (high schools). In summary of Wikipedia:Notability (high schools), reliable sources are bound to exist for pretty much all secondary schools. It is a waste of bloody time to hunt them down for every AfD of a secondary school that comes our way. I'll add that this is especially the case because secondary schools are the PERFECT "Gateway Drug" for new Wikipedia editors... why should I deny a local of this school the opportunity to do the research themselves? I'm not going to do it for them. By longstanding consensus, we can be afforded the laxity to assume the sources exist. Hence, my citing WP:NEXIST. I will not budge from this position, and I believe that LONGSTANDING Wikipedia consensus backs me up here. Fieari (talk) 04:36, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Hear, hear! The deletionists here hate the consensus and try to claim there isn't one and that SCHOOLOUTCOMES is being used as a policy instead of what it actually is: a summary of consensus. Utter rubbish! -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:27, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • I see some panic here. No, Necrothesp, it is not a summary of consensus. It is a summery of the effects of loud shouting that you should keep schools without content-based arguments. But loud shouting has nothing to do with consensus and SCHOOLOUTCOMES has also nothing to do with consensus. It must be embarrassing to know that you have no content-based arguments while pleading for keep... The Banner talk 13:05, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
          • Panic? You're having a laugh, right? Maybe there's been a sudden rash of secondary school deletions? Oh no, there hasn't. Still almost none deleted at AfD. Ever. And going by the comments so far, this one won't be either. But I do love your essential pared-down argument that a consensus isn't a consensus because you don't agree with it and are convinced you're right. Most amusing. The anti-Brexit campaigners could take some handy hints from you! -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:46, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - it exists, it's a secondsry school - no more is required.Eustachiusz (talk) 01:09, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - lacks sources to verify article content or that the school even exists. I have to say that I'm surprised to see WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES being cited as a reason to keep, when it clearly states that sources have been required for such an outcome. Cordless Larry (talk) 12:41, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • As stated above, this government document lists it. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:25, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - We keep high schools for the very good reason that experience shows that, with enough research, sources can invariably be found that meet WP:ORG. Google is a very poor tool for finding sources on non-Anglophone schools. We must avoid systemic bias and allow time for local sources to be researched since no evidence has been adduced that this school cannot meet notability requirements. Just Chilling (talk) 22:16, 22 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - I cannot download the PDF that's included here but I'm assuming it's a poxy little mention like the rest of these schools, SCHOOLOUTCOMES is great and all that however it doesn't establish the schools notability here, Anywho the PDF will at some point become dead and unarchived and then yet again it's going to be an unsourced article essentially - There's no sources on the school other than that so better off deleted . –Davey2010^Talk 23:20, 22 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per Steve Quinn who has kindly provided another source to verify the schools existence, If the first source above could've somehow been archived then I'd of happily !voted keep the first time however as I said above it can't be archived, Anyway thanks Steve!, Easy keep now. –Davey2010^Talk 01:05, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. We do need to satisfy WP:V, and there is enough to satisfy it. If we start arguing about the relative extent of coverage for high schools, there will be not just be the unfortunate result of adding a few dozen articles to afd, , but also the other half of the compromise will come into play, and there will be support for every one of the hundreds of thousands of primary schools for which one can make a case. The purpose of WP is to make an encyclopedia , not argue incessantly over how to make it. I've been consistently opposing the inclusion of articles on local institutions of most sorts as part of the compromise, but it would probably be possible to find sources not just for primary school but for fire stations and branch libraries. They're in essence part of the compromise also. DGG ( talk ) 03:53, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep First, I agree with DGG. He has pointed out that it is best to keep agreements such as - proof of existence satisfies the criteria for "keep". This is important because if we start hemming and hawing, the floodgates of having AfD discussions on local libraries, fire houses, and the like, could be opened. This is besides these locations finding a home in an article on Wikipedia simply because they exist. Both of these scenarios would put more stress on a system that is having difficulty keeping up as it is.

Second, the government document PDF shows this schools exists - satisfying the criteria for keep. Third I have two more sources: The World Heritage Encyclopedia at Project Gutenberg [1]. Scrolling down reveals the information on the image emphasized. The next is Google Maps [2]. After I plugged in the complete title (I think using the above AfD template) the map shows the location of the school. Also, the school and location are in the URL of this map.

• Comment on sources by Steve Quinn: I think it is beneficial if we look a bit closely at these sources:

1. Google maps is not reliable (user generated content) so I don't think we should use it for verification purpose.
2. This World Heritage Encyclopaedia seems to be a copy from Wikipedia? The content matches our Wikipedia article word to word. I looked up more and I found this. Project Gutenberg Self-Publishing Press, also known as Project Gutenberg Consortia Center. Unlike the Gutenberg Project itself, Project Gutenberg Self-Publishing allows submission of texts never published before, including self-published ebooks. Also owns the "gutenberg.us" domain. Launched in 2012,[42][45] by 2015 became notorious for close connection[46] with one "World Public Library Association". This latter, allegedly an "aggregator of eBooks", among other, publishes a sham encyclopedia called "World Heritage Encyclopedia" made of mangled Wikipedia articles. This is not Project Gutenberg. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:53, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Lemongirl942: I didn't realize any of this. I am glad you pointed this out. I just matched two of our articles Metamaterial and Belgium with the World Heritage Encyclopedia [3], [4]. They are virtually the same. The variation of a few words is because they probably have a slightly older version. And I didn't know Google Maps is user generated. Well, back to the drawing board. I apologize for inadvertently misleading everyone. Steve Quinn (talk) 07:16, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I just noticed this discussion in the normal sweep I do for "World Heritage" mirrors. Yes, these are simple mirrors of Wikipedia content and obviously not suitable as a source for anything. They work very hard to obfuscate the nature of their material, so don't feel bad - I probably remove 10-15 links to these sites each week (there are about 40 domains from this same group). I've removed the link from the article. Kuru (talk) 14:30, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion the crash and its aftermath are covered adequately in the Sonicblue Airways article and I actually boldly redirected an earlier iteration of the subject article to the airline article five years ago.

• Redirect & Merge - I don't agree with the above comments that this is a light plane accident or a general aviation flight. Those terms apply to private flight; this was a commercial flight on which anyone could have been a passenger. However, since the flight was the defining incident in the history of the airline, I agree this crash can be covered in Sonicblue Airways. Since that article has only one paragraph on the crash, and this article is much longer and appears to be well referenced, I think additional information from this article should be merged into Sonicblue Airways.

@AleksandrMironov: Providing links to sources on this page would help people participating in this discussion to get a good handle on the subject. Specifically, I'd recommend looking at sources which would establish that Styline passes the criteria at WP:MUSBIO. If the charts you're talking about are major national charts, that would go a long way. I'd also recommend copyediting to make the language more neutral. Everything in the article should be verifiable in a reliable source independent of the artist (and labels, etc.). Language like "huge impact" is going to lead people to believe the article is promotional. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 13:11, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't appear to have charted anywhere in Europe, which would seem to be the main market for this music: I haven't checked North American or Asian charts yet. I'm wondering if the "multiple chart entries" are on Beatport or the iTunes chart. And I think I'd want some evidence that "power house" was a widely accepted genre in dance music circles and not just a neologism invented by Styline. Richard3120 (talk) 13:49, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"power electronics" is a genre, but it's a form of loud hideous noise industrial, not EDM. "pioneers his own music genre called Power House" is a bit of a red flag. Most Google hits on "styline" are for a kettle. "styline chart" shows Beatport charting (not convincing for NMUSIC) and an Instagram noting "Number one in the Russian club charts again!", and multiple national minor chart entries would pass NMUSIC if Clubtone qualifies - looks like nobody's worked it out for Wikipedia:Record charts. Can anyone here read Russian and also know if Clubtone would likely measure up as a respectable minor national chart? Of course then we still need RSes. I only found [19] in GNews, though Digital Journal is actually a user-generated content site that looks like a news outlet. So I guess it's whether Clubtone is a respectable minor national chart, and then if the entries can be verified - David Gerard (talk) 15:10, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

From what I can tell so far, Clubtone appears to be a website dedicated to dance music, no more than that. I can't see any evidence of editorial oversight, and judging by the site's name and the fact they sell ringtones, I wouldn't be surprised if the "Clubtone Top 10" was simply the ten most downloaded ringtones that week, but I'm happy to be proved wrong. Richard3120 (talk) 19:31, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• One week on and "huge impact" has been changed to "significant impact" without any evidence of Styline's "significance", no clarification as to what the Clubtone chart is, and no evidence that "power house" is a term used by anyone else except Styline.

The result was delete. This is a rare case in which I must disregard most opinions because they do not address a core policy issue raised in the nomination: verifiability. As the nomination points out, the content is sourced only to http://genealogy.euweb.cz, an evidently self-published and therefore unreliable website. Almost all "keep" opinions make notability arguments, but do not address (let alone rebut) the verifiability problem, which as a core policy issue must take absolute precedence.

• Keep. It is at least verifiable that there are allegations of a massacre and none of the sources are suggesting that it didn't happen, so this does not amount to a hoax. The sources are largely newspapers and press agencies, so the claim of PRIMARY does not really stand up. This AfD sounds to me very much like an attempt to whitewash the ROK army. In their critique of the sources, Mztourist says that they cannot access Clodfelter's book. Well I can, and this unarguably independent, secondary, reliable source has this to say,

The ROK Capital Division hunted Charlie in its AO in Binh dinh Province. Between September 23 and November 9, the Tigers of the South Korean division reported 1,161 enemy deaths in the course of operation Maeng Ho. A good many of the reported enemy KIAs may have been noncombatants, for the ROK had a reputation for brutality against the pro-VC peasantry of the region. On February 2, 1966, for example, 380 civilians were killed by ROKs in the village of Binh An, in Binh Dinh province. As many as 1,600 noncombatants may have been killed in the provinces of Binh Dinh, Phu Yen, and Quang Ngai in January and February 1966

— Micheal Clodfelter

SpinningSpark 20:54, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The newspaper accounts are interviews with villagers many years after the purported events and so they are PRIMARY. There is no photographic evidence or contemporary reporting of the purported events. The AP story shows proper journalistic investigation and indicates serious doubts as to what, if anything, occurred. In relation to Clodfelter, use of "Charlie", "Tigers" indicates a lack of standards in what you say is an "unarguably independent, secondary, reliable sources". What actual sources does Clodfelter give in relation to a massacre at Binh An? Or is he just repeating the same dubious stories that are included on this page? I am not attempting to whitewash anything, but a massacre is a serious allegation and it shouldn't be included on WP without very solid evidence. This page has been deleted once before for lack of evidence. Mztourist (talk) 07:05, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The AP source does not express "serious doubts" of the truthfulness of the eyewitnesses. On the contrary, the whole article is premised on the assumption that their stories are, in fact, true. It is true that the journalist says "[t]he AP was unable to independently confirm their claims", in part because "[a]s is routine with foreign reporters, several government escorts accompanied the AP staff. The AP was unable to search for documents that would back up the [local] officials' allegations." But that is hardly the same as actually casting doubt.

Clodfelter's book is published by McFarland, a serious, well-eatablished publisher specialising in academic and reference works. On sourcing, Clodfelter says,

Cross-checking and comparison of sources and, most of all, common sense have guided my research and results. i have employed official and supposedly authoritative sources wherever available, have sought statistics from both sides in each war to evaluate the inevitably conflicting claims, and have tried to verify the numbers reported on the battlefield with the records of the various medical corps and military surgeon-general reports.

This does not sound to me like someone with a "lack of standards" or "just repeating the same dubious stories". It is not for Wikipedia to assess the significance of lack of photographic evidence, contemporary reports, or the primary sources used by RS (although Clodfelter has a nine-page bibliography if you really need to know). That kind of assessment is the job of the reliable secondary sources. That's why we use them. SpinningSpark 11:49, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am concerned by the low standards being applied here. A massacre is a very controversial accusation, but you seem willing to accept the existence of an event based on minimal details and very dubious sources. The lack of photographic evidence and contemporaneous reporting should be of concern, because that was available for other massacres, such as My Lai Massacre, Đắk Sơn massacre, Hue Massacre, Phong Nhị and Phong Nhất massacre, Son Thang massacre etc. Re the AP, I don't agree that "the whole article is premised on the assumption that their stories are, in fact, true" what gives you that impression? Once again I am asking you specifically what Clodfelter gives as his sources for the Binh An massacre, not general statements as to sourcing, so what are they? If all Clodfelter has done is copy details from WP or those same newspaper reports then it isn't any more reliable than those underlying sources. Mztourist (talk) 16:47, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If the accusations are dubious, it is down to you to find reliable sources saying that. The article can then be balanced with that material. Until then, your position is entirely WP:OR. SpinningSpark 17:04, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That is a rubbish argument. WP:V and WP:RS are the pillars of Wikipedia. Vietnamese POV pushers have created a number of pages regarding purported massacres based on tenuous sources, I am simply challenging them to ensure that WP:V and WP:RS are met. You haven't answered any of the other issues I raised on the talk page and are refusing to answer the simple question of what Clodfelter gives as his sources for the Binh An massacre. Mztourist (talk) 04:33, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what sources Clodfelter used. Presumably they are in his nine-page bibliography that I already pointed you to. There is no reason why I should be required to name Clodfelter's sources; Clodfelter is the source I am citing. If I were to name his sources, would you then ask what sources they used? Eventually, we would get back to primary sources which you have already made a big case of rejecting. I can only surmise that nothing will ever satisfy you. SpinningSpark 08:58, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If the information comes from multiple reliable sources (and the Associated Press, Globe and Mail, and Asian Human Rights Commission articles are sufficient, regardless of the others, for which I would need to look closer to make a determination), it meets WP:V.

  In any case, this shouldn't be a redlink, since we cover this subject (in Doctor Who#Logo history, as mentioned on the talk page) and this would be the usual title for it.

• Keep – Just have a look at her official profile, which is provided by the United World Wrestling. She had represented India for more than one decade in the top international tournaments, which include the Senior/Junior World Wrestling Championships, Asian Games, Asian Wrestling Championships, etc. In fact, she was the 2000 Asian Junior Champion. She had also reached to the bronze medal bout of the 2006 Asian Games – click here. At the national level, she made multiple podium finishes in the National Championships, e.g. 2001, 2003, 2008, 2009, etc. I guess that is more that enough to satisfy WP:NSPORT.

She is even further special as she was the first Indian female wrestler. And the struggle of hers and her father Chandgi Ram to introduce women's wrestling in India is even highlighted by the United World Wrestling - click here. She was the first one to win India's highest women's wrestling title – Bharat Kesari. She has also signed up to become the first pro female wrestler from India.

Finally, her post-retirement career in TV – where she participated in the country's top reality shows like Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi — 1, Bigg Boss — 2 & Zor Ka Jhatka: Total Wipeout — 3 – is in itself sufficient to satisfy the WP:GNG. But that isn't even required. - NitinMlk (talk) 07:47, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment As an adult she never came close to winning a match at a world championship, finishing near the bottom at both events. She has no medals in a significant international competition. The article on her and her sisters looks like good coverage. If other sources can be found, WP:GNG might be met. I'm not inclined to say that appearing on reality TV shows is enough to show notability, though others may disagree. Papaursa (talk) 04:18, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Sports_personalities states that an "athlete is presumed to be notable if the person has actively participated in a major amateur or professional competition or won a significant honor....". So, it clearly states that the long-term participation in the major competitions is enough to satisfy the WP:NSPORT. And the concerned amateur wrestler has represented her country in the top amateur wrestling events for more than one decade. I guess that's 'active' enough. Secondly, as far as WP:GNG is concerned, there are enough reliable independent sources in the English and the other languages, e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, etc. But I guess the WP:GNG will come into picture if she fails the WP:NSPORT, which doesn't seem to be the case here. - NitinMlk (talk) 09:39, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You should add these sources to the article. The presumption of notability does not guarantee notability. WP guidelines still say reliable sources are needed. Because of the number of organizations, events, and divisions simply competing at a martial arts world championship has not always been sufficient to show notability. Papaursa (talk) 16:06, 10 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I believe that NitinMlk has provided enough coverage to show WP:GNG is met. It's still debatable whether she's notable for her wrestling alone.

It's not some far-fetched argument – it's the relevant wiki policy. At present, unlike many other Olympic sports, amateur wrestling doesn't have separate notability criteria – check at WP:ATH. So, only alternative left here is to use the Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Sports_personalities, which the subject meets easily. In any case, to meet the WP:GNG, there's more than enough coverage of her in the third-party reliable sources. BTW, what's vague about the term "participated in"? At least in the case of sports tournaments, its meaning is crystal clear. - NitinMlk (talk) 08:08, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

French–Armenian Agreement (1916)[edit]

French–Armenian Agreement (1916) (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)

The title of the article, "French–Armenian Agreement (1916)", is unsourced, and I can find no source that indicates there ever was a document with this title (or this title with the date 1916 removed, or its French-language equivalent). All references to it on google are just recycled Wikipedia content. The title is also misleading (probably intentionally) because it suggests a military or political treaty between two nations, France and Armenia - but no military or political entity called Armenia existed in 1916. What does appear to have existed is a French military decision to recruit non-French citizens (such as Armenians and Syrians) for its proposed Légion d'Orient, and then a French approach made to Boghos Nubar for help in gathering possible recruits amongst diaspora Armenians worldwide and Armenian refugees in the middle east - in other words nothing as formal as an agreement, and absolutely nothing that would justify the status of a title such as this. This content, and the rest of the content in this article, should be covered by the article French Armenian Legion. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 16:29, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete -- unneeded content fork since the material is already covered in French Armenian Legion. Not enough for a stand-alone article. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:49, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to French Armenian Legion, which says there was an agreement in November 1916 in Egypt between an Armenian delegation and the French. This was clearly part of the effort to bolster the allied war effort at this period, resulting in a number of agreements that some have since wished were not made. Armenia was not a country at this time, but it was an ethnicity that was subject to genocide by the Ottoman Turks. A wish by a delegation of refugees to take up arms against their persecutors and of the allies to encourage that is wholly credible. However, I agree that it does not merit an article of its own. Peterkingiron (talk) 12:03, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

However, the French Armenian Legion article is also unsourced for a claim that there was an agreement called "French–Armenian Agreement (1916)". It does appear that some approach by (or to?) the French (at a time when Allied manpower was becoming stretched and conscription was being introduced) was made to (or by?) Armenian groups and community leaders in order for them to facilitate the recruitment of Armenians who were not French citizens into the French armed forces as part of its Légion d'Orient. But a group or a group of individuals agreeing to do something is not the same thing as an "Agreement", which implies some sort of formalized treaty or convention between state entities - so I would rather the French–Armenian Agreement title was gone completely and did not become a redirect. Let's not continue with the implication that a document with this title ever existed, or that academic sources have used this term to refer to whatever the actual agreement was. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 21:04, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To clarify the origin of the name of this alleged "Agreement" - it originates in Armenian Genocide denialist literature originating in Turkey. It is part of the pseudo-history conspiracy theory produced by Turkey that there were, and still are, "Powers" that are out to destroy Turkey, and that there was no Armenian Genocide but merely Armenians rebelling against the Ottoman Empire as part of that project to destroy Turkey and a justified response by Turkey to put down that rebellion. The title is meant to suggest an actual military agreement existed between Armenians and one of those Powers - thus supporting the allegation that Armenians were conspiring to destroy the Ottoman Empire.

Delete. Advertorially-toned WP:BLP of an actor whose strongest claim of notability is a role in a single web series. The only "source" here is his own official website, which is a primary source that cannot confer notability, and the article was evidently created by his webmaster (creator = User:RchandlerUS; credited author of website reference = Chandler, RC), which is a conflict of interest. A person like this would be eligible for an article if it could be referenced to enough reliable source coverage about him to satisfy WP:GNG, but one role in one web series does not confer a WP:CREATIVE pass in and of itself.

Young actress which may very well become notable (I do wish her the best) but is currently not there yet. She's had one significant role, though not a leading role, so far and all seven of the references provided by the article link to reviews of that one film and only mention her name in passing as a member of the cast. I haven't been able to find reliable sources that discuss her in more depth so I believe she fails both the basic notability criterion and the actor-specific guideline.

Tricky case. Poor article, completely lacking in proper sourcing--the problem is establishing to which extent the subject can lean on the credits of the hit he co-wrote and co-produced; I cannot find reliable sources that argue he can derive notability from it. He and fellow writer Janieck van de Polder were given BUMA/STEMRA awards for the tune because it charted internationally, but they got 2nd and 3rd for national and international hit song--not number 1, and one should realize that these aren't awards as much as verification of hit status: the second biggest Dutch hitsingle wins second in the national hitsingle category. Given the low number of articles discussing our subject, I'm going with delete since he does not pass the GNG--this is the one more or less reliable source I found, an article from a local paper which describes how his hometown mayor invited him over for coffee. Noordwijk--nice place. Drmies (talk) 02:30, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - I had been working on a draft for a number of months, which I have now merged with this article. On the balance of things just about squeezes through GNG with substantial articles about him in BBC and FourFourTwo. GiantSnowman 08:07, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Clearly fails the subject-specific guideline, WP:NFOOTY, because he hasn't played at senior international level or for a club from a fully professional league in a senior competition. The articles on BBC, FourFourTwo, the local paper cited in the WP article, and elsewhere are all reworkings of an interview with the subject that highlighted one event: a man chose to go and work in an unstable country but when it got more unstable he didn't like it so he left. As such, 1) those pieces can't be treated as multiple intellectually independent sources, per WP:BASIC, and 2) so what? it's good background material, but not enough to make someone notable.

  All the facts in the original interviews come from the man himself, without independent corroboration. This piece on a Brazilian news site states that Rachoni was never at Arsenal Kyiv and that the Fluminense he claimed to have played for was not the well-known one but the Mineiro State League Div 2 side Fluminense de Araguari-MG. It also suggests that his economy with the truth on footballing matters casts doubt on his veracity in general. Whether true or not, it's hardly unprecedented that naive footballers get fooled into going to unsuitable places for jobs that either don't exist or exist under intolerable conditions, and no-one helps them when they want to get out. Sadly, it happens to hundreds of young Africans every year. And it's hardly unprecedented that unemployed persons talk up or whitewash their background to try and get attention and hopefully work, but he'd need to get to the standard of Alex Zarrelli mentioned above to be notable for that.

2. From war-torn Ukraine to Concord Rangers: The remarkable story of Evandro Rachoni - lengthy local news article, recycles some quotes, but also includes original copy
3. Meet the keeper looking for luck in the ninth tier after leaving war-torn Ukraine - fourfourtwo article on player
4. Brasileiro usa legenda de “refugiado da Ucrânia” para ser futebolista no Reino Unido - Brazilian article querying the truthfulness of his claimed career

The only thing that I can find that backs up even the existence of this race is the included image of unknown origin. Beyond that, I can find no primary or secondary sources that would even begin to support this race as a notable subject. The linked YouTube video doesn't seem to give the race the name used for this article. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk • Work} 14:06, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment My guess is this could be a minor company-sponsored race that is considered trivial by the press. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk • Work} 14:19, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• This was the ninth race on the Wednesday of Derby week.  As I recall, the Derby itself is the ninth race on Saturday.  Unscintillating (talk) 02:24, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Churchill Downs has all sorts of races that week as part of the Spring Meet, Of course, a difference between one 9th race and another is the coverage. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk • Work} 12:23, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Searched Newsbank, Highbeam, and Newspapers.com. I found a golf tournament in Maryland and a boat race in Ireland, but no mention of this horse race. This may not even be the most notable Gannon Cup! Acdixon ^{(talk · contribs)} 15:24, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment  Article lists this as a 1 1/6 mile race run in 1:44:14.  There don't seem to be 1 1/6 mile horse races.  [21] gives the fastest time for 9 furlongs (1 1/8 mile) as 1:45.25.  1 1/8 miles is 1 3/24 miles while 1 1/6 miles is the longer 1 4/24 miles.  A possible explanation, not as good as a reliable source, is that the 1 1/6 miles should be 1 1/16 miles, where the best time on the dirt is 1:36.40.  Unscintillating (talk) 23:57, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment  Sources show that Corrupt won the ninth race on the Wednesday before the 1st Saturday in May in 2008 at Churchill Downs, so this is all credible, but with the only known reference for the existence of the topic being the official program from Churchill Downs, the topic currently fails WP:V#Notability.  Unscintillating (talk) 02:24, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Perhaps credible insofar as one race in one year, although I haven't seen anything hard that labels the race as the "Gannon Cup". Stevie is the man! ^{Talk • Work} 12:20, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: The guidelines at NHORSERACING generally need a horse race to be a graded stakes race as a threshold. Putting that name into equibase.com brings up nothing. (Also, horse races are never run at 1-1/6 mile, they may have meant 1-1/16 mile). Looking up the race record of the horse Corrupt, I see he did win a race the week before the Kentucky Derby in 2008 with results described here but the race is described as an "Allowance optional claiming" race -- unnamed, ungraded. So unless my colleagues at WikiProject Horse racing find something I can't, this race is too insignificant to meet NHORSERACING. Delete. Montanabw^(talk) 20:32, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - I don't have the 2008 Racing Almanac to hand, but the 2007 does not list any "Gannon Cup" as a graded stakes race in the US. Typically, stakes have to have several years of history before actually reaching graded stakes status - so the lack of it appearing in the 2007 edition is pretty much proof that it's not graded and thus fails to have enough coverage to satisfy GNG.

• Delete I just can't come up with ANY source material. White Arabian Filly ^Neigh 20:58, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per Montanabw....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 00:33, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Equibase shows the race won by Corrupt on April 30 2008 was an "Allowance Optional Claiming" race with no mention of the "Gannon Cup" title.[22] Not a notable race. Tigerboy1966  06:51, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can't Stop Feeling (disambiguation)[edit]

Taking to AFD since PROD was removed. This page only contains partial title matches aside from the primary topic, and DAB's aren't supposed to just list subjects that contain certain things as only part of their titles. Best to delete it as there is only one "Can't Stop Feeling" entry. Snuggums (talk / edits) 13:56, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Inclined keep, looks useful to readers - David Gerard (talk) 15:24, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not really when only one entry is actually titled "Can't Stop Feeling" and everything else has other parts to distinguish it from that title. Also, see WP:USEFUL. Snuggums (talk / edits) 15:32, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Quoting the last paragraph of WP:USEFUL: There are some pages within Wikipedia that are supposed to be useful navigation tools and nothing more—disambiguation pages, categories, and redirects, for instance—so usefulness is the basis of their inclusion; for these types of pages, usefulness is a valid argument. Uanfala (talk) 19:23, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • My point was that it doesn't carry much weight to merely say something is useful without giving a good reason for how/why. Snuggums (talk / edits) 21:48, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • In the case of content articles, saying that something is useful without giving a reason doesn't carry much weight. But when it comes to navigation aids, if someone says that they find something useful, full stop, well... it means that it is useful. You could see that both in the quoted passage from WP:USEFUL as well as for example from criterion #5 of WP:RFD#KEEP. Uanfala (talk) 14:55, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:PTM. There's only one topic that "may refer to" Can't Stop Feeling so a disambiguation page is unnecessary here. -- Tavix ^(talk) 18:21, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Changing to keep. A couple editors I have high respect for have convincing arguments to keep and I don't want to be in the same camp as someone who WP:BADGERs every opposing vote. -- Tavix ^(talk) 15:01, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. It is the case that only one of the entries actually matches the title exactly, but the rest are so similar to it that they're easy to confuse, so the dab page decently serves as a navigation aid. Uanfala (talk) 19:23, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • They aren't actually THAT similar; people can definitely for instance tell "Can't Stop the Feeling!" from "I Can't Stop This Feeling I've Got". Let's not exaggerate similarities. Snuggums (talk / edits) 21:48, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep; dab pages with WP:PTMs are a dime a dozen; most are useful. This one is no exception. And please, don't tell me what I can and can't tell apart. I find these entries related enough that it would be easy to confuse them. — Gorthian (talk) 02:30, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• I wouldn't go so far as to say "dime a dozen". Regardless, other pages being mistakenly filled with partial title matches doesn't justify doing so here. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS for more. Snuggums (talk / edits) 03:11, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Are you sure badgering all other commenters will get them to agree with you? - David Gerard (talk) 07:58, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep; Per Gorthian. There are apparently many songs in which the band or artist cannot stop feeling. Yoshiman6464 (talk) 02:44, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Dabs are cheap and it's a logical search for a variety of titles. Montanabw^(talk) 21:39, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
