Article PRODded with reason: "Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." Article contains a list of references to blogs (not reliable sources, some of them not independent either), none of them contributing to notability in the sense of GNG. There is also some name-dropping listing notable members of the editorial board (but notability is not inherited). Article dePRODded with reason "I think it is notable, was mentioned in NYtimes recently too http://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/04/world/derek-parfit-philosopher-who-explored-identity-and-moral-choice-dies-at-74.html".

TRANSWIKI To Wikiversity. Michael Ten (talk) 23:00, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. The article presents a picture of a reasonably normal journal — 15 years old, good people on editorial boards, some minor controversies — but no evidence of actual notability as a journal. —David Eppstein (talk) 03:19, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ -- unless it's a predatory journal, I don't see a reason to delete. The article states: "Reviews are commissioned and vetted by the Editorial Board. Only newly released books and anthologies are reviewed, not reprints or new editions unless they contain substantial new material", i.e. it's possible that the journal would be used as a source on Wikipedia. The editor is a notable individual and apparently an expert in the field. I view journals more like publishers -- they are notable for their work and what they publish, so meeting GNG is harder. K.e.coffman (talk) 21:19, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It's not just that it misses GNG (which indeed few journals make), but even the much more permissive NJournals (which currently is highly contested as being too permissive, see the talk there). This has no sources, nothing indicating any notability at all. --Randykitty (talk) 22:08, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep – this is entirely subjective, but I believe being "the brightest galaxy in the lower left quadrant of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field" is significant enough to warrant its own stub article (WP:NOTPAPER), especially because of how famous the Deep Field is. Laurdecl ^talk 02:50, 14 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Per nom. Regarding the 'weak keep' vote, the relevant issue is whether it satisfies the criteria established by the community in WP:NASTRO. It fails all four prongs of that policy. It (1) is not visible to the unaided eye and has never been so, (2) is not in a catalogue of interest to amateur astronomers or a catalogue of historical interest, (3) has not been the subject of in-depth attention in reliable secondary sources, and (4) was discovered after 1850.

The result was delete. There are a few people saying "Keep" here, but they either fail to advance a policy-based reason for keeping, or they rely on crystal ball stuff. On the other hand, the WP:ONEEVENT arguments are well made and not refuted. No prejudice against a bold redirect being made from this title if someone wants to stick their necks out.

Shan Ju Lin[edit]

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

Ms Lin is a never-elected political candidate who attracted media attention only due to the perception that her candidacy for Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party was usual due to her ethnic background, and subsequently being disendorsed well before the election. As such, she does not meet the notability criteria set out at WP:POLITICIAN. In addition, WP:ONEEVENT appears to apply her as Ms Lin is only known for her short-lived One Nation candidacy.

~~Strong redirect~~ ~~and merge to Pauline Hanson's One Nation for the time being~~ *Keep I have changed my mind, as this story is far from over. From all reports she is still overseas, so has not been interviewed by the media yet. I think it is likely she is going to bounce back as an Independent or with another party. If so, it does not make much sense to merge the article into Pauline Hanson's One Nation. Alternatively, if she is not notable for WP:POLITICIAN, she may just be notable in her own right as a divisive or controversial voice on the political scene. MatthewTStone (talk) 20:27, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lin also attracted some attention for her KAP candidacy, as seen in the SBS Cantonese-language interview that I tried to add to her page. She's very newsy at the moment, but I'm unsure of her lasting importance. It might depend on what she does next. --122.108.141.214 (talk) 06:43, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Likely to bounce back as an Independent" sounds like WP:CRYSTAL. St Anselm (talk) 21:57, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a discussion and opinion page, not an article in WP:Mainspace, where WP:CRYSTAL is meant to apply, so it is perfectly valid. I would say this is an unfolding event, that is still taking place in the media, so it is up to editors to keep track of it MatthewTStone (talk) 22:32, 11 January 2017 (UTC).[reply]

No it isn't. We don't have articles on people who might become notable in the future. Nick-D (talk) 07:54, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep she is very well reported. Torygreen84 (talk) 06:47, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, obviously. These people fade quickly from the scene and have no lasting significance. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stephanie Banister for a similar case (and note how non-notable she seems a few years later!). Frickeg (talk) 10:53, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Strong redirect and merge up to Pauline Hanson's One Nation similarly to 2013 Stephanie Banister interview. This person has been extremely widely reported BUT for a single brief event, which is hence very notable but very brief in nature. TOOSOON for any standalone notabilty in their own right. Aoziwe (talk) 12:27, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:POLITICIAN and WP:ONEEVENT. St Anselm (talk) 21:51, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - and expand, please! I saw an article referring to her in the paper today, and wanted to find out more about her. Was pleased that there was a Wikipedia page for her, but disappointed that it had so little information, and also disturbed that it had been tagged for deletion. Whatever her individual level of fame/importance/notability is, she is certainly very interesting at least as an example - an Asian (born) person who has lived in Australia through Pauline Hanson's first rise, and her recent resurrection.

Some more personal details would be useful, such as what sort of a teacher she is, and what sort of school she teaches at. 115.64.142.162 (talk) 23:12, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:ITSINTERESTING is not a reason for keeping. LibStar (talk) 07:32, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. It's a one-day story about a disendorsed minor party political candidate and a BLP nightmare if kept. WP:ONEEVENT was created to discourage exactly these kinds of articles. The Drover's Wife (talk) 07:12, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per above. Timmyshin (talk) 23:58, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Under WP:One Event, the guideline suggests it may sometimes be appropriate to cover the event not the person. To quote: ...If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate..... As a Taiwanese person, joining a notoriously anti-Asian party (If you go by Hanson's maiden speech, One Nation was virtually founded on that platform); Lin's joining the party was a highly significant event within Australian culture. Note that she wasn't ejected for being Asian, but rather for other reasons. Also, she seems to have disappeared overseas for the time being, and the media were having trouble tracking her down, so her plans will become clearer once she returns. MatthewTStone (talk) 19:53, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And I would say there is no way in the world this is a significant event. St Anselm (talk) 21:57, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, you may be right – which kind of illustrates the point – there seems to be a bit of subjectivity allowed for in the WP:One Event guidelines, as to what constitutes 'significant'. MatthewTStone (talk) 22:05, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:BLP1E and WP:POLITICIAN. No enduring significance. I would say there are about half-a-dozen similar candidates every election cycle who get similar amounts of coverage, don't think we need to cover them unless they actually get elected (or have some other major impact).

The result was Move to Evil corporations in fiction. Consensus is to keep, and it appears that the rename is favored. My interpretation is that this is not intended to be list article of such corporations because at present it difficult to see the inclusion criteria, so the article may be subject to further editing.

Evil corporation[edit]

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

This is an assemblage of pop-culture references that in no way indicates that the topic is itself encyclopedic.

Delete. I contributed to the previous discussion which was just six months ago. At that time I noted there appeared to be very little by way of coverage of this individual in reliable sources. I still can't see any particularly credible claim to notability. Drchriswilliams (talk) 21:26, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The person has been elevated from CEO of a particular region to the president of the entire group for deletion. More importantly, like mentioned in the article, he heads the biggest chain of hospitals in the entire country and he is the person who actually brought the concept of emergency medicine to the country. Also, one cannot say "At that time I noted there appeared to be very little by way of coverage of this individual in reliable sources". A supporting article from The Hindu, Bloomberg News, Deccan Chronicle, Fiji Sun have been provided. These are the most reputed publications nationally & globally. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiasian2408 (talk • contribs) 00:20, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
My description of my contribution at the previous AfD was accurate. What has changed? The Deccan Chronicle article from March 2016 looks like a lifestyle feature for 30th anniversary of his marriage. The Bloomberg link does not work but was likely a listing. The Fiji Sun article is new since the last AfD nomination, but it looks like a tabloid regurgitation of a press release linked to a conference he was speaking at. While he was interviewed by the Hindu for their piece published in November 2015, this is in his capacity as the president of the hospital chain. So, it appears that this article has been recreated with enough extra references added in to avoid speedy deletion. But, while the Deccan Herald article is interesting, I'm still not convinced that there has been a significant change in a depth of coverage of this individual that would demonstrate that he meets WP:BASIC.

Delete - there is zero evidence that this person meets WP:PROF, WP:CREATIVE, or WP:GNG. With all due respect for a friend who was an anesthesiologist, they are not inherently notable. In fact, they are often discriminated against in the ranks of academic medicine. Every medical doctor, by dint of their social status, eventually gets into the newspapers, so local coverage, even in reliable sources, does not prove notability. That he runs a big chain of hospitals is not remarkable in itself, if there is no source that attests that he did something notable. We are not a LinkedIn for doctors. Bearian (talk) 15:59, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Do Not Delete I strongly contest this deletion, and both the reasons mentioned above.

While "Not enough credible/reliable sources of information" is one of them, the other person says, he is not remarkable enough -

Here are atleast 30 reliable sources of information about the same person, varying from listings in global business databases like Bloomberg to national media-houses of 5 different countries such as Times of Oman, Deccan Chronicle, The Hindu, Arabian Business, NDTV, Trade Arabia, Times Of India, Fiji Sun, Business Line, Mint_(newspaper), The Economic Times, The Hans India, Nigeria CommunicationsWeek, The Financial Express (India) & So on :

Having said that, he is not just an anesthesiologist, he has been instrumental in bringing the emergency medicine concept to India, which has had a very positive impact on the healthcare system in this country on a macro-level . He is also the first doctor in the history of, not just this country, but outside Europe to be honoured with a fellowship of the College of Emergency Medicine, UK and the first in India to receive a fellowship of the International Federation for Emergency Medicine. In addition to this, he has also played Ranji Trophy cricket which is the highest level of national cricket in the country. Moreover, the very fact that he has been covered by numerous diverse media houses multiple times across various 5 different countries is an indicator of his stature and achievements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiasian2408 (talk • contribs) 11:40, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wyatt Pontius[edit]

Delete. Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a person whose claim of notability involves the word "aspiring" rather than on his actually having achieved anything that actually passes a notability criterion as of today. His "multi-award-winning work" involves local high school and college science fair awards and university scholarships, and he has not won any award notable or significant enough to constitute an automatic WP:ANYBIO pass on the basis of the award win. The sources are almost entirely primary ones, with the exception of a smattering of local media coverage in his own hometown media market. And there's a likely conflict of interest here as well, as the article was created by an editor whose username was "Stemprodigies". No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when there's a stronger claim of notability and much better sourcing to support it, but nothing present here as of right now is enough to already get him an article today.

Delete. WP:BLP of a musician, who has no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC and no strong reliable sourcing to support a WP:GNG pass. Of the four sources here, three are primary ones (his own website, the promotional site for a non-notable film he participated in making, and a first-person essay on a PR blog), and the only reliable one is a purely local piece of "local teen makes an album" coverage in his local newspaper. As always, Wikipedia is not a free PR platform on which every musician in existence gets to have an article the moment it becomes possible to verify that he exists -- reliable source coverage, sufficient in volume and geographic range to pass GNG, has to support a claim of notability that satisfies NMUSIC for an article to become earned, but nothing here satisfies either part of that equation.

Neither of those is an automatic WP:NAUTHOR pass in the absence of reliable source coverage about him.

Bearcat (talk) 15:52, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You're not getting how this works. No notability criterion can ever be passed just by asserting that it's passed — regardless of what the article claims, the notability criterion is still not passed until RELIABLE SOURCE COVERAGE IN MEDIA is supporting that passage. Nobody gets, for any reason ever, an exemption from having to be reliably sourced just because some impressive-sounding accomplishment has been claimed. There is no claim of notability that any person can ever make which exempts the article from having to cite reliable source coverage in media. Bearcat (talk) 16:20, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing in the above link states that has to be the case Apollo The Logician (talk)

That's because "the above link" is about defining what is or is not a reliable source, in the context of a reference to reliable sources. The basic notability rule is where you'll find it explained that coverage about the subject in reliable sources is a base condition that has to be met before an article is allowed to even be started and that people cannot be exempted from having to be reliably sourced just because coverage of a notability criterion has been claimed but not sourced. Bearcat (talk) 14:48, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sources have been added Apollo The Logician (talk) 16:32, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Daily Herald is a good start, but not enough all by itself — but his own website and his "our authors" profile on the website of the books' publisher do not assist, because coverage has to be independent of the subject to count as reliable source coverage for the purposes of satisfying Wikipedia's inclusion rules. Bearcat (talk) 16:37, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This one is a bit tough. He's co-written several entries in the Ender's Game series, which is a notable series overall. However that is ultimately all that he's really known for and there hasn't been a lot of coverage of him as far as a writer goes. There's been precedent on stuff like this before. Jobie Hughes was an author known for ghostwriting a well-known series, but that's all he was known for and there wasn't enough coverage to justify him having a standalone article, so it was deleted and turned into a redirect. If he'd been writing the series solo then that might have gone differently, which is probably why Andrew Neiderman has an article outside of the VC Andrews stuff. This is what makes Johnson so difficult to really decide - he's well known for working with Card, but anything that is written about him tends to be predominantly about Card or the series, with him as more of an afterthought. There's so little out there that he could just as easily be covered in a subsection in Card's article, honestly. He definitely needs to have something about him somewhere, but the question here is where and how much. If we could show that he did something in the Ender's Game series solo, that would help out a lot, as well as coverage for anything he might have done independently of Card as a whole. It's kind of surprising that there isn't something out there, honestly. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 16:56, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

He is a comic and tv writer as well. Apollo The Logician (talk) 16:58, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The main issue though, is that none of the stuff he's put out independently of Card is really notable. The only things that have been notable have been the Card/Johnson works, which is why I'm leaning towards giving Johnson a subsection in Card's article and redirecting there. He's just not really independently notable because even when he is mentioned in RS, it's always in passing because the main focus is on Card and the work he's done with Card.

Comment A redirect to Ender's Game (series) could be helpful to readers, he´s mentioned there. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:15, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Goodreads isn't considered to be a RS - the vast majority of content there is user generated, as users can create and edit information on books as long as they have librarian status, which is not difficult to achieve. The author's pages are debatable, as they're either created by the author or they were added by a random user. In the first case it'd be at best a primary source and couldn't show notability and in the second it's a non-RS. In the case of Goodreads, his author bio is also available on the author's official website, which should be the primary source used when backing up basic information.

Comment - The Japanese wiki page says that she was the first major Japanese BBW pornographic actress and is responsible for the genre's success in the country. If true, that would suggest potential notability and contemporary media coverage. Practically speaking, however, the relative scarcity of easily accessible Japanese media archives in general and the fact that she became popular before the popularization of the Internet in Japan means that such coverage would likely be quite difficult to find. --Cckerberos (talk) 19:22, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Die Berg Komt Er[edit]

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

"Die Berg Komt Er" was a media campaign and not a real movement or serious proposal for anything. The campaign has been removed time and again on NL.WP. Proposing removal per WP:NOTSOAPBOX. gidonb (talk) 20:18, 1 January 2017 (UTC) gidonb (talk) 20:18, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Which type content as described in WP:NOTSOAPBOX would apply here? – Editør (talk) 10:53, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Editør Thank you for the question! Most significantly 1. Advocacy, propaganda, or recruitment 4. Self-promotion Advertising, and 5. marketing or public relations, but there are elements also of some other WP:NOTSOAPBOX and other WP:NOT. To strike a balance and also be specific I generalized to WP:NOTSOAPBOX. gidonb (talk) 15:26, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe this article is aiming at either self-promotion or advertising/propaganda/marketing. – Editør (talk) 17:11, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Believe is not always the strongest basis for educated opinions. Please study this media campaign in its local context as the Dutch folks do who keep removing it from NL.WP for very good reasons.gidonb (talk) 03:18, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your explanation was unconvincing. Furthermore, Dutch Wikipedia policy and standards often differ from the English Wikipedia; only English Wikipedia policy and standards matter here. – Editør (talk) 09:27, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am not trying to convince you. There is or can be a discussion below the inclusion messages. I have nominated this media campaign for deletion under WP:NOTSOAPBOX as a service to the Wikipedia community and look forward to read all opinions. I may react or not. If you wish to express your own opinion, you may do so at the appropriate place. Saying that there can be differences between the Dutch and English language Wikipedias is stating the obvious. Fact is that I have nominated this article under our rules. You even asked me to specify. Still, the repetitive removal of this media campaign by the WP community that know its sociopolitical context can be relevant information. gidonb (talk) 02:59, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – WP:NOTSOAPBOX does not apply. – Editør (talk) 17:11, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that the folks at the Dutch wiki have roundly deleted this gives me pause -- are their rules for this really that different? I also agree with Editør that WP:NOTSOAPBOX is a poor rationale -- the article is neutrally worded and doesn't appear to be promotional in tone. We do of course have many articles on things that are only proposed. There was a flurry of coverage in 2011. Then, this article appeared in early 2012. My concern is that there may not be enough WP:LASTING notability here, despite multiple sources. Weak delete. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:10, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh and I'm seeing refs on the article, such as Wired, that are dated 2013 even though if you go to the link they are in fact 2011, as well. Not sure what that's about and my guess is it's an honest mistake, not an attempt to give a misleading impression the coverage lasted longer than it did. The science publication link that I provided above was mistakenly tagged by Google News as "2014," even though was published two years earlier. I suspect that's what's happening here, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:17, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  WP:LASTING seems relevant, but it's a bit too soon to tell really. The project was initially covered in 2011 and 2012, but there are also later mentions and discussions, such as this 2015 article and this 2016 article (note that The Berg, a somewhat similar plan, was also discussed in the latter). – Editør (talk) 18:57, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I saw those. I couldn't read all of the Volkskrant piece due to the paywall but it seemed to me that it was a column about upcoming books, including one by the cyclist who had once (jokingly) suggested the idea? Did I get that right? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:26, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The article uses the story as an entrance point to discuss Dutch books about cycling on mountains. – Editør (talk) 17:28, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm not sure whether referring to the deletion history on the Dutch Wiki is relevant in this case. From the discussion history here and here, it seems their entire discussion was whether the article was 'encyclopedia worthy' (also referred to there as 'relevant'). However, a reading of Wikipedia:Relevantie and its talk page reveal that the Dutch WP:REL (upon which the entire discussion is based) is a de facto-guideline, serving a similar purpose to our notability requirement, but the precise guidelines are much less clearly defined on the Dutch wiki. Based on their 'relevance'/'encyclopedia worthyness' guideline, the discussion about "Die Berg Komt Er" on the Dutch wiki revolved around whether coverage of the event by (reputable) (inter)national news sources for a non-insignificant period, followed up by feasibility studies, were sufficient to merit an article on the Dutch wiki.

Therefore, instead of going by the Dutch wiki history of this page, I think we need to assess notability and verifiability based on our own criteria. Of mention are e.g. WP:EVENT, WP:LASTING, WP:DIVERSE, WP:NOTNEWS. --talk2Chun^{(talk) (contributions)} 11:33, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The proposal itself is absurd, but it is verifiable and notable - we thought it notable enough to put it on the Main Page! I think the Dutch are removing from their wiki out of sheer embarrassment. The fact that a structure of 2,000 metres (7,000 ft) was proposed and studied merits an article. Jacknstock (talk) 18:17, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I agree with Jacknstock. The amount of serious study makes the proposal significant. The tense in the article needs to be changed from "is" to "was" as I don't believe it is still under consideration. MB 05:03, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No reliable, independently sourced coverage. Little more than an image gallery with minimal associated prose.

Comment. I believe general practice has been, rather than creating redirects, to convert the wikilinks to the form XBIZ Award for Best Whatever. It's a bit more efficient.

Pardon, but redirects are cheap and would then properly send readers to the one place where "general practice" and "common sense" would have us send readers to where they may read of the topics in context. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 06:11, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notable enough to the porn genre even if not the mainstream, but I am not arguing for a 'keep'. And a redirect can be protected from being overwritten. Quite easy actually. . Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 06:11, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree I don't believe it is notable at all, Could be but it's just wasting admin's time. –Davey2010^Talk 08:25, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An interesting response... similar to someone claiming academy awards are non-notable to the film industry. I do not claim that the various sub award categories are notable, only that an award considered important to one particular film genre need not have any note outside of that industry. if a reader wishes to be informed (our base duty here) of the awards themselves, the parent article is the place if separate sourced articles are not wanted.

I agree with deletion, for this and other UDF objects that have individual articles unless they are more specifically noteworthy. The mere fact that a galaxy happened to be observed by Hubble isn't sufficient reason to consider it noteworthy. A database such as NED is better suited for containing basic data such as redshifts and magnitudes for all galaxies where such data are available. No reason to add this to a list of the most distant astronomical objects, because this galaxy is fairly nearby compared with current record holders for distance.

From Sandesh Gadkari, Mohammed Irshad, Vijith Shetty, Abhishek Ambedkar, and Marcus Masceranhas, many former I-League players were part of it and even ones in the league now who were scouted while representing their state. At the same time, literally every India women's international player was in the women's section. It wasn't just amateurs. The football tournament pretty much represents a major part of the footballing calendar for Indian football that season. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 20:11, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - having sport-specific articles is fine for a worldwide tournament such as the Olympics; more debatable when it's regional/continental such as the Asian Games; but completely unnecessary when it's national such as this. Giant Snowman 17:21, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And your basis for that is what? Just because it is a country based athletic tournament and not a regional one? That is ridiculous. The only basis these pages are notable on is WP:GNG which they pass if you Look at the coverage it received (football specifically) during the time period the tournament occurred. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 20:11, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:NRIVALRY, no evidence of GNG. Simply because two teams play each other regularly does not create a de facto rivalry.

Fenix down (talk) 09:43, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- Fails WP:GNG for a sports rivalry. Although the term 'ærkerivalen" (archrival) is used in news sources about matches between these 2 teams, my search of RS Danish news sources found no significant coverage about the rivalry itself nor any established use of the title "Battle of Central Jutland." In fact, "Slaget om Midtjylland" (Battle of Central Jutland) is used for matches among several Jutland soccer clubs. Without any specific significant coverage in reliable sources for this rivalry or term, the article fails WP:NRIVALRY. This should also apply to the recent article Battle of Eastern Jutland (Denmark) as well. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 17:24, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Probably was worthy of a CSD. Just pure spam. Jupitus Smart 06:36, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Approval Suggested Should appearent famousness be the ultimate yardstick to evaluate notableness, then this article might have been prone to deletion. But otherwise, if we value truth and its readily-verifiableness, plus the purpose for which the truth is being presented, then this article should find a strong ground in Wikipedia.

The references available with this succinct article, including a Google-verified physical address, demonstrate nothing more than factual information, all of which can be verified in minutes. This evidently supports the claim noted by user 'AuthorBM'(vide 'View history' of the original article) about the purpose with which the page was created. And above all, could any biased blank promotion at all stand in Wikipedia?—— people would keep editing and improving it, thereby making it further informative and reliable in the coming days.

Therefore, requesting all respected admins to remove those deletion tags stamped above and honour the article-matter with its due scope.

Objection on Delete Let us recall 'Wikipedia:Five pillars' [referred: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Five_pillars]

The article under question satisfies all the fundamental ethics on which Wikipedia is established. It owes mostly to the fifth pillar ('Wikipedia has no firm rules') that Wikipedia has become an information-ocean today. I quote from the page I just referred to, 'Wikipedia has policies and guidelines, but they are not carved in stone; their content and interpretation can evolve over time'

Time has come. Why not we come ahead generously to broaden the scope of allowance? If we use policies as rigid tools to screen authentic verified contents, we are trying make Wikipedia stagnant. We should reconsider.

Contents presented must not contradict decency, etiquettes and policy-guidelines. But neither should we confine Wikipedia by coining policies as barriers. Policies might rather be modified to accommodate inclusion of factual statements, even if it is a self-declaration towards some authentic purpose. One can modify or add to the content for betterment, but deletion! Sorry, it is not something meaningful as per Wiki-principle. To sum up I repeat, prompt routine coining of policies as screening-tools would someday turn the ocean of authenticity into stagnant table. Administrators may kindly review and delete delete-tag(s). Thank you. 49.203.158.192 (talk) 05:46, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Tyler Lemco[edit]

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

Delete. WP:BLP, based mainly on primary sources, such as YouTube videos and content where he's the bylined author, of a writer and internet personality. While there is a bit of reliable source coverage sprinkled in among all the junk, all of the legitimate sourcing covers him exclusively in the context of the single non-notable event of posting "campaign" signs in last year's Canadian federal election which read "not running for anything, I just wanted a sign" — which means the media coverage here just makes him a WP:BLP1E. As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform on which a person becomes entitled to have an article just because he exists — it's an encyclopedia, on which a person must be the subject (not the author) of media coverage which verifies one or more specific achievements that quantifiably pass a notability criterion.

The obituaries in the refs are about the subjects life, I think. There are articles about the subjects final illness and death, mostly blog posts, although one short mention in the Boston Globe [8]. None are referenced in the article, but, as you suggest, a number of notable bloggers have written about his illness and health care financing difficulties.

Delete Smmurphy has, again, greatly misjudged. Subject fails GNG and ANYBIO. I give no weight to sources for which the subject worked. Chris Troutman (talk) 00:43, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Articles about him and his work are cited in the article published by wired.com (in 2006), Inside Higher Ed (in 2012 and 2016), the Chronicle of Higher Education (in 2008), and thinkprogress.org (in 2013) and about his scholarship published by the academic journal Colloquy (in 2010). He didn't work for any of those, although his writings may have appeared in those publications. Smmurphy^(Talk) 01:22, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

True enough. I still don't see GNG, and the issue of independence is still there. Chris Troutman (talk) 01:48, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously, I disagree.

I'd also like to point out that blogs written by experts can sometimes be used as reliable sources. While I don't really go that route, and don't recommend it, his film criticism work is covered in many highly regarded blogs, from washingtonpost.com blogs [9] to rogerebert.com [10]. Similarly, as a blogger-journalist he is discussed on blogs from brad-delong [11] to Crooked Timber [12]. I don't mean to argue that being mentioned in blog posts makes someone WP:Notable, only that highly regarded bloggers and experts in the fields of media criticism write about Kaufman and his work. Smmurphy^(Talk) 02:24, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The 2012 article in the Inside Higher Ed website , a site that he was a contributor to, is a trivial mention of a comment on his blog. The 2016 article is an obit. The 2008 the Chronicle of Higher Education article is a trivial mention about a Youtube video. The reference in thinkprogress.org was in a friends blog, hardly a reliable source. The mention of Scott Eric Kaufman in the online journal Colloquy was in Daniel Wood's 17 page article about Zack Snyder’s Film Adaptation of Watchmen and consisted of 4 sentences. The Washington Post and Roger Ebert blogs are not about "Kaufman and his work". He is just one of many bloggers mentioned. The brad-delong and to Crooked Timber articles are obituaries. None of these seem to provide significant coverage to pass WP:GNG. CBS527^Talk 03:17, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The 2012 Inside Higher Ed article links to Kaufman's blog, which was where the protest started, and is about the protest that Kaufman made. Kaufman is a significant figure in that article, even if he is only named three times. The 2016 article is an obit, what's wrong with that. Fair point on the 2008 Chronicle article, although the panel was discussed in a few places, and the Chronicle seemed to be the most significant. Also, he was discussed by the Chronicle a number of other times between 2005 and 2008 [13]. Alyssa Rosenburg, the writer of the thinkprogress article, has written for many of the same outlets as Kaufman, including DailyBeast and Salon. She is an East Coaster, while Kaufman is from the West and South. While I am sure they are friends, it seems that their friendship is professional. I think the friendship is mentioned in the thinkprogress article as a vote of confidence for Kaufman's writing, and not meant as a signal that her recommendation and description should be discounted. As for Colloquy, 4 sentences in an academic journal is a lot of ink about a blog post, but fair point. The WaPo and Ebert blogs are similar, in my mind, to the Colloquy coverage, as they represent more ink than is commonly given to bloggers. The brad-delong and Crooked Timber links I provided were to searches on their blogs, whose results show more than just obituaries.

For completeness: you didn't mention the wired.com article and neither of us mentioned the AV Club and Salon obituaries, which covers all of the sources currently in the article not written by Kaufman and the 4 blogs I mentioned above. Smmurphy^(Talk) 04:08, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't usually like phrases like this, but I've added to the lede that Inside Higher Ed described him as a "leading first-generation, graduate student blogger" in an obituary, for what it is worth. Smmurphy^(Talk) 04:44, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would agree the wired.com article is a good reference. Obituaries tend to be questionable as a source. Generally they have a poor reputation for checking the facts, lack meaningful editorial oversight or may have a conflict of interest. I'm still having a hard time with the subject's notability. I checked the Google Trending tool, but it wasn't much help in establishing notability. The number of times the search term "Scott Eric Kaufman" was used average slightly under 3 times a week from Jan. 15, 2012 to October 29, 2016 on Google. The period around his death (Oct. 30, 2016 - Dec.30, 2016) the search average went up to slightly more than 17 per week. This year the average search went to 1 time per week. [14] The Google Nviewer shows the search term "Scott Eric Kaufman" at less than one billionth of one percent. Sadly, I still find that the subject lacks the notability for an article. CBS527^Talk 17:15, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am not an expert in the metrics you are talking about, but Kaufman tracks pretty well with Daniel W. Drezner, Chapati Mystery, and isn't far behind 3 Quarks Daily, three of his peers in the academic blogosphere, I think.[15]

Also, I'm surprised you would discount obituaries. They are often written before a subject dies (possible in this case, as his death was not unexpected) and are always heavily scrutinized (by readers and by editors, I think). Also, the superlatives given are similar to those in articles before his death, such as in the chroncle of higher ed in an article about his illness which isn't in the article or yet come up in our discussion, and can be read here.

Although comparing articles won't establish notability or lack of notability, the article on Daniel W. Drezner was tagged two weeks ago for notability issues and the article on Manan Ahmed Asif seems to have the same issues as well. I don't see how 3 Quarks Daily compares to the subject -It's a minor news aggregator like Google News or The Daily Beast. I appreciate your comments but we just disagree on this article.

May not meet notability guidelines for music. Okamialvis (talk) 17:51, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The six first Adolecents album have a wiki page, included their 2013 album. Why should the 2014 and 2016 albums not have one? JPGR69 18:11, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, things do not "have a wiki page"; this is an encyclopedia, and these are encyclopedia articles. There are standards for what articles Wikipedia should and should not include, the most basic of which is Wikipedia:Notability. For albums, the specific standard is Wikipedia:Notability (music)#Recordings. At minimum, the album needs to have been the subject of coverage in multiple non-trivial published works appearing in reliable secondary sources (note that discogs.com is itself a wiki; its content is user-created, therefore it is not considered a reliable source by Wikipedia's standards). That an album is an officially released recording by a notable musician or ensemble is not by itself reason for a standalone article. Secondly, "these other articles exist, so this one should too" is not a compelling argument for inclusion. If the most coverage you can gather together to launch an album article is an infobox and track listing, it is probably not a great idea to create the article as it will very likely end up being nominated for deletion (as in this example).

All that being said, I've been working on the various Adolescents (band)-related articles for several months and have managed to substantially improve the articles about their albums released between 1981 and 2005, some of which were just stubs when I started working on them. However, I stalled out a bit while working on The Fastest Kid Alive. It seems that after the excitement surrounding the band's reunion and OC Confidential wore down, coverage of their activities in reliable secondary sources became scarcer. I haven't been able to find much in the way of substantial coverage of their albums since they moved over to Concrete Jungle Records, which is based in Germany; coverage of the band in U.S.-based sources seems to have lessened quite a bit since then, although the band has remained active, releasing 4 albums in the past 5 years and consistently touring, at least in California where I've seen them perform several times in recent years. However, I do know that their activities have been covered a bit in several southern California publications such as newspapers and area music magazines; I've read some articles in recent years about singer Tony Reflex's activities and the inspirations for his lyrics on the last few Adolescents records. So I'm fairly confident that, in time, I can meet my goal to improve the articles on the Adolescents' most recent albums at least past stub class, hopefully to C or B class at least. It would be just as easy to start from scratch, though, which is how I planned to go about it (starting in userspace), so I have no objection to stubs being deleted in the meantime. --IllaZilla (talk) 16:17, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect as the obvious solution given there's still not the genuinely convincing substance but, while there's sourcing, it's not enough for a currently convincing article of its own. As for the "Keeps" above, they themselves still emulate the acknowledgement of this not being enough; as for the 1 review then cited above, it's a publication known for accepting payment, so that alone is a concern.

Delete First, a word to Kyleaggie2018 about the phrase: "make this notable." That is always going to sounds like nails on a chalkboard to AfD editors. We as editors don't make something notable, we indicate that others have made note of something. That is, notability is an externally-derived quality, not something that we can add. That said, the sources, although published by others, are really not independent. They are really repackaged marketing materials in trade publications. That means that there isn't significant coverage in independent sources, as the guidelines request. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 20:10, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No objection to userfying this is the creator requests it since there is a possibility this will be notable once released. As it is it fails WP:NFF. There are claims it has started filming (or even finished) but I see no reliable sources to show that "the production itself is notable." The references are just IMBD and what appear to be film fan and blog sites. The sources I have looked at in detail have not even properly supported the claims they were sourcing. For instance, the IMDB site says nothing about an expected release date of May 2017, and the Horror-Movies.ca site did not contain the quote if was supporting and teh page was not a movie preview at all.

Not much evidence that this particular coverage of this sport is notable. The sport is notable, the different instances of the TV coverages aren't independently notable themselves. Moreover, WP is not a directory of all broadcasts of motor races. T v x1 22:31, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Would agree with nom. This is yet another WP:TE draft by an editor well-known to the F1 and other motorsport projects who has been advised previously that pages of this nature are not what Wiki requires per WP:What Wikipedia is not, WP:NOTTVGUIDE and WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Some similar pages have already been deleted or are under discussion and although IndyCar has notability, coverage by individual broadcasters, of which there are many, in various locations, probably does not and to create pages for all would be excessive.

Delete I imagine this is just BT Sport airing the main NBC/NBCSN originating broadcast from the US with minor changes in graphics, their commentators, and surrounding programming; nothing unique about their presentation at all; this isn't the reverse, where NBC in most rights has their own commentators, camera angles, hosts and graphics for their Premier League coverage. Here, it's just a simulcast of existing US coverage without anything unique. Nate • (chatter) 07:36, 14 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Poorly sourced article about a single-station local radio program, whose only substantive claim of notability is that it was once named "Best Local Radio Program" in an alt-weekly's annual "best of city living" reader poll. That does not constitute a WP:NMEDIA pass in and of itself, but there's no evidence of reliable source coverage being shown here -- the references are entirely to primary sources, such as content authored by the program's host rather than about the program's host, and even that reader poll claim is sourced to the program's own website rather than to the publication that conducted the reader poll. So there's simply no grounds for inclusion here, as neither NMEDIA nor WP:GNG has been met at all.
I'm also batching the separate standalone BLP about the program's host, which isn't sourced any better — four of its six sources are the same sources that aren't cutting it in the show's article (you don't make a person notable as a writer by "citing" his book to itself), and the other two are a press release on a journalism trade organization's website and a WordPress blog, so there's no reliable sourcing being demonstrated there either.

Keep, the program is an award winning journalistic show, and the page includes adequate sources. It seems to be a major big city (Vancouver) investigative journalism show, a rare breed nowadays, and its guests, including First Nation advocates, seem prominent. All of these aspects, taken together or separately, make the program notable. Randy Kryn 15:50, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Where does the article include any "adequate" sources, exactly? Four of the five are primary source content written by the program's host, not reliable source coverage independent of the program, and the only other source is a deadlink still on the program's own self-published website about itself. Exactly zero of those sources contribute anything toward notability. Bearcat (talk) 18:08, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Democracy North. I can't source it. Sources 1., 2., and 3. are about a book written by someone described on this page as a producer at this station; I cannot see that they talk about the show or confirm that he produces it. Source 4. links to another book. but listing a book without giving the page # or a quote from the book is not definitive sourcing. Source #5. is a dead link. Which leaves us without a single usable source (unless someone can find a substantive discussion of this program in one of those books that supports notability)E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:11, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
delete Derrick O'Keefe. My searches found a number of press releases that appear not to have been picked up by any media. Also a number of of articles that he wrote. Where there may be notability is in the fact that he helped write ("with") a political; autobiography , listed as by "Malalai Joya with Derrick O'Keefe." And he wrote a book about Michael Ignatieff that got a couple of reviews in mainstream places. But not sufficiant to establish notability for O'Keefe.

Took another swing at sourcing it. The number of hits on searches for "Democracy North" + radio looks encouraging, until you realize that after the first self-sourced page to this small radio program, the hits are to radio interviews with a political organization called Democracy North Carolina and to radio interviews containing sentences like "on our democracy," North Carolina Gov.

Was deprodded with the following rationale: "contest WP:PROD deletion - mayor of cities or districts with a population of 300000+ usually turn out to be notable, so this shouldn't be deleted without discussion."

Delete ~~To correct the de-prodding: I think he was the mayor of a city with a population of 30,000 people (source).~~ Zero hits in Newsbank or LexisNexis searches. The sources appear to be: The New Times source cited, a self-published book about soy, this Africa Intelligence piece, and there are 8 other hits in the New Times, but only two can be said to be substantive content about Francois Munyankindi (note: most of those sources identify him as district mayor. But not all do--noticably so, but would not be surprised if UNHABITAT source I used above is wrong). Will be following discussion and can change, but based on these sources, I think delete is appropriate. ~~Final: Even if we ascertain that he was the district mayor, the sources found do not pass GNG for me (nor NPOL).~~ Add: Appears most likely he is district mayor, but that still doesn't pass GNG or NPOL.

The result was keep. The film has not been released yet, but the Google search with the Chinese title shows that sources are available in Chinese (it would have been convenient to present a few specific sources in the AFD itself). The comment about the director (having previously directed 2 notable films) also indicates that there is a good chance that there might be more coverage after release. Consensus seems to be towards keeping it right now. (Note that for films, it is usually practical to wait for a month or two after release, before deciding to nominate it for deletion. By that time, most newspapers would have already published reviews and it would be easier to determine if the coverage is adequate.)

Redirect to Pinoy Big Brother: 737, the reality televisionshow, on which he appeared and was eliminated, per our usual practice here. Every one of his other appearances has been on talk/variety shows or reunions of the original show. His appearance on Gandang Gabi, Vice! (more properly translated as "Good night, Vice Ganda!") is entirely run of the mill amongst Filipino "celebrities", since Ganda is such a media hound and loves to be seen with attractive men. My Pinoy partner forces me to watch that show. In any case, we can safely assume that somebody at some point in time will be looking online for this name, and a logical redirect is to where he's had his only star turn of 15 minutes' fame.

The result was redirect to Constitutional Court of Korea. There seems to be a general agreement that this doesn't warrant its own article. As the entire content in the article is limited to one sentence (and that too copied and modified from Constitutional Court of Korea), it seems fair to redirect it. Any subsequent content can be added to the appropriate section in the target article. This close is without prejudice to creating a standalone article, should enough references be found in the future and should there be enough content to justify a split from Constitutional Court of Korea.

Er, no, It doesn't, actually. That article was the first place I looked upon finding this topic at AFD. The article Bertdrunk links to in fact follows the section on Louis XV with a section on Apology to the Huguenots in 1985. More to the point, the Louis XV section is a brief sentence with a "Further Information" link to Persecution of Huguenots under Louis XV.

Merge to Protestantism in France. There's no question that the instant article has been significantly improved since the nomination.

@Kintetsubuffalo: Please give an explanation for this nomination. Thank you. NasssaNser (^talk/_edits) 13:45, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Er, he already did. I certainly try to provide more detail (some would say longwindedness) in my nomination statements, but Kintetsubuffalo's nomination statement is in no way unclear about why this would legitimately be in question. Bearcat (talk) 17:37, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Bearcat:In fairness, for some reason/glitch, my edit didn't take properly, third time it's done that to me in an AfD. @Mrschimpf: pointed out on my talkpage that it showed up in the edit summary but not on the original AfD. Maybe I am not holding my mouth right?--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 04:38, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed I noticed it in the AfD log; usually for most of these cases I would drop a procedural keep rationale but since I know Kintetsubuffalo has a long history on AfD I decided a talk page notice to fill in the reason would suffice and in the space between my talk notice and Bearcat's response there was still odd code rather than the rationale for deletion. Pretty rare when the AfD script malfunctions, but it happened here and the nomination was too justified to PK and speedy close and it definitely wasn't one of the regular 'drive by' noms by any means.

Delete. This is a poorly sourced WP:BLP of a person who has no claim of notability strong enough to exempt him from having to be sourced a lot better than this. Being a local political activist is not an automatic inclusion freebie; being a non-winning candidate in a party primary or a general election is not an automatic inclusion freebie; being a local district leader for his political party is not an automatic inclusion freebie. And none of the referencing here is sufficient to get him over the WP:GNG bar either, as it's based almost entirely on primary sources rather than reliable source coverage in media — and even the few links which are reliable source coverage in media are not about him, but merely namecheck his existence in the process of being about something else. None of this is good enough to get him over the bar that distinguishes "person who exists" from "person whose existence warrants the attention of an encyclopedia". Bearcat (talk) 17:37, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Bearcat; poorly formatted BLP that reads as a WP:RESUME, and most of the elections were hardly public but just internal party processes. At best, a redirect to his father's article would be the best course and would be supported. Nate • (chatter) 07:10, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Nominator is correct that the board of county supervisors is not a level of office that automatically entitles a person to an article just because he exists — but the sourcing here, which consists of one primary source and one piece of routine local coverage of the entire supervisor election which namechecks Roberts' existence while failing to be substantively about him, is nowhere near good enough to get him over WP:GNG as somehow more notable than the norm.

Thank you also for the useful geography/policy lesson, but I think that ever since Trump's phone call with the Taiwanese president in the days after the US elections, only somebody who's deaf and blind is not aware of the difference between Taiwan and China. In any case, whether I am biased or not is irrelevant. All you have to do to make people !vote "keep" here is to produce reliable sources independent of the subject that show that he meets WP:GNG.

Delete There's nothing in the article or the argument above that demonstrates notability as outlined in WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, or WP:JOURNALIST. The New Bloom magazine (http://newbloommag.net) is a bilingual blog with barely any readership (most posts in either language have 0 comments/retweets). "It is unusual, being a centre-left publication in a traditionally somewhat right-wing country" is actually an argument for deletion per WP:UNDUE and WP:POVPUSH. Notice the article of Michael Turton, the only "notable" person who has commented on Hioe's work, was also created by the same editor, as was the only "notable" person who has commented on Turton's work, J Michael Cole.

Keep. "no importance" is simply a matter of opinion. Personally, I don't find a number of celebrities to be of great importance, but they are covered by numerous reliable sources, and therefore are notable, facts about them are verifiable, and thus they meet our inclusion criteria. Likewise, there are plenty of sources that treat the Aqua Anio Novus: this paper, along with a number of others discussing the "four great aqueducts of ancient Rome" is on jstor; this, on Roman aqueducts more generally, appears to be publically accessible.

Speedy keep Nominator has made precisely three edits, all in the name of deleting this article. Rationale provided by nominator is insufficient. No actual case for deleting this article has been made at this time. Beyond that, keep because other editors have pledged to work on the article and there is more that can be done with it. Only when all this has been said and done should deletion be revisited, and I find it unlikely that it will be deleted even then.

I originally tagged this with a blp prod, which was incorrect due to the inclusion of the musician's own web page, which satisfied the condition of at least one reference. I have been waiting to see if there would be any improvement. Unfortunately, there hasn't. Current sourcing consists of mentions, or non-independent sources. Searches turned up some more mentions of him (was surprised to see how many people actually have this name), however, none of the in-depth coverage from reliable independent sources which would be necessary to establish notability.

Sourcing only consists of simple company announcements, mentions, interviews, press releases and other announcements, not one is both substantial and non-PR and that's unsurprising since the company is still obviously seeking funding and support hence a common sign it's not even established, searches mirror this by simply finding business announcements and similar.

Post-war Britain[edit]

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

Practically a WP:FORK of History of the United Kingdom (1945–present). --Nevé –selbert 02:25, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the criticism incorrectly assumes this is an undesirable "Point of view (POV) fork." The two articles discuss different aspects of British history. History of the United Kingdom (1945–present) runs 101,000 bytes is 95+% national politics, while Post-war Britain (77,000 bytes) is 75% economic, social and cultural history. A clue here is the footnotes: the two articles use quite different sources: POSTWAR is based largely on 80+ scholarly articles & monographs but only a handful of such scholarly sources are used in the 1945+ article (half its sources are BBC journalism). There is indeed some overlap in political topics, but even there the content is different. --the 1945+ article takes the viewpoint of the government and policy formation whole POSTWAR takes a much broader viewpoint of public opinion and impact of policies across society. Merging would produce something much too long and hard to follow. This is allowed by Wiki policies: Content forks that are created unintentionally result in redundant or conflicting articles and are to be avoided. On the other hand, as an article grows, editors often create summary-style spin-offs or new, linked articles for related material. This is acceptable, and often encouraged, as a way of making articles clearer and easier to manage. Rjensen (talk) 02:49, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Maybe these articles could be renamed to differentiate them in a more descriptive way. One could be something like Post-war national politics of the United Kingdom and the other Post-war social history of the United Kingdom. Also, we need to differentiate between the nation (the United Kingdom) and the island (Great Britain). It seems to me that a discussion of "Britain" relates more to geography and pre-modern history/prehistory than to modern politics, society and culture. Jacknstock (talk) 05:05, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

that's a good idea. Note that the very first comment on the talk page of the 1945 article made the same point: "Should this page really be called "History of the United Kingdom (1945-2000)" when its purpose seems to be to talk about the Prime Ministers of that period and what their governments achieved? Maybe this page could take a better name, or at least explain that it deals with Politics and not all types of History.

I'm ok with that--or better we can simply so this: rename both so that we have 1) "Political history of the United Kingdom (1945–present)" and "Social history of the United Kingdom (1945–present)" The problem with "postwar" is that nobody calls 2017 "postwar". Rjensen (talk) 17:39, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- Both seem to be valid, well sourced articles, but their subjects are very similar. The normal solution would be to merge, but both are already long and a undertaking a merger would be a major undertaking. Both are built on the structure of successive governments. I am far from sure that one is really a political history and the other a social or economic history. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:08, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that there is an issue of keeping the subjects distinct with multiple editors. That is one of the reasons for the names of the articles to be clearly differentiated. Hopefully editors will then be more likely to keep on-topic. Also, some clever editing is necessary to further differentiate the text. Jacknstock (talk) 22:19, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment- I can see the arguments both for delete and keep, but I think renaming is the way to go for now. History of the United Kingdom (1945–present) could perhaps be renamed Political History of the United Kingdom 1945-present and this article renamed something like Post-war British Culture and Society.

The article in the few weeks has expanded in length by a third with much better coverage of social topics (and less politics). Rjensen (talk) 21:24, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and rename per above arguments. These articles complement one another, and together provide a thorough history. ABF99 (talk) 06:11, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Question: If we choose to rename this article, should we make Post-war Britain a disambiguation page? Worth a thought.--Nevé –selbert 18:38, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

yes I agree: Rename & make Post-war Britain a disambiguation page. the two new titles can be "Political history of the United Kingdom since 1945" and "Social history of the United Kingdom since 1945". That tells the reader they are inter-related with different approaches. Eventually as time moves on they can be split, say (1945-2015) and (Since 2016) -- which might work if Brexit proves a big deal. Rjensen (talk) 04:39, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This sounds good, I agree, though it's hard to anticipate a future need for a split. Cross that bridge when we get there. ABF99 (talk) 16:07, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep with the renaming suggestion as above: "Political history of the United Kingdom since 1945" and "Social history of the United Kingdom since 1945" (the article under discussion). K.e.coffman (talk) 07:14, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep with a rename to Social history of the United Kingdom since 1945 as suggested above. Absolutelypuremilk (talk) 16:45, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Songs from the Heart Tour[edit]

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

Largely agree with the PROD tag placed by TJRC that was removed: No indication of notability, and the only cited source is from the band itself. This level of detail is not required. It would be better to note the tour in the Celtic Woman article in the "Tours" section, summarizing the date range and number of venues. Interested readers can go to the band's web site for details. -- Dane ^talk 02:19, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Carl Kosta Savich[edit]

Delete. Beyond the notability and autobiography issues already identified, most of the article is a WP:SOAPBOX for the subject's political views. And the quality of sourcing is really bad...a letter to the editor of an alumni magazine, by rather than about the subject? An unspecific citation to a ten-year date range of a political advocacy web site? Completely unencyclopedic. How is it possible that something this bad has persisted here since 2006? —David Eppstein (talk) 05:04, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:BLP1E. Most of the coverage about the subject came about due to the kerfuffle over the Bosniak school named after a Nazi. Subject fails WP:PROF, WP:GNG, and WP:ANYBIO. As I fellow member of Phi Alpha Theta I'd be happy if the closing admin put this into my userspace so I can rehab it and perhaps re-publish someday. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:15, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

While the article exists, there is nothing to stop you putting it into your userspace yourself. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:43, 15 January 2017 (UTC).[reply]

Moving the article now would be in violation of WP:USERFY#NO and moving an article into userspace in this case sans AfD would violate the spirit of WP:USERFY#YES, in my opinion. This isn't some brand-new draft mistakenly published. I could copy-paste the content but moving the article retains the article history where copypasta does not. I could always ask for a WP:REFUND but I find it easier to make my request to the closing admin now instead of trying to remember to make the request after deletion has occurred. Chris Troutman (talk) 03:25, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sher.ly[edit]

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

A WP:PROMO page on a company that is yet not notable. The article is largely self-cited, while searches provide some "tech sturtup publicity", routine coverage about funding and similar news. The copy is strictly promotional; the article opens with: "an company launched in 2013 to create a smart sync data management platform to enable secure file sharing for businesses..." followed by extensive product specs, "Awards" section and the like.

Article created by Special:Contributions/Magdelena_tr with no other contributions. The article was apparently speedy deleted in December (see Talk:RHaworth#Deletion of Sher.ly) and then recreated in the current version. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:08, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fails PORNBIO and the GNG. No substantive assertion of notability. No awards, only nominations.

Delete. Only real PORNBIO claim is appearing in a "blockbuster" work of porn. Notability does not transfer without support from reliable sources. We have a cast listing on a site that markets the work and a RS article about the work that doesn't even mention the actress. As for GNG, making one writer's greatest list in a pop culture mag is hardly sufficient. • Gene93k (talk) 14:18, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
