Virtually unsourced WP:BLP of a musician, whose only evident claim of notability is as a session performer on an album by another musician. This is not an automatic WP:NMUSIC pass for a musician, but he doesn't get over WP:GNG either as the only source here is a glancing namecheck of his existence in coverage of the other musician he sessioned for. Literally the only reason I'm not speedying this as an A7 is because it's been floating under the radar since 2005. Bearcat (talk) 23:24, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The article written by SPA Ralum23 reads like an advertorial and has all the hallmarks of a salaried or commissioned work created in deliberate anticipation of the product launch. The numerous routine reports used as sources do not afford notability to a start-up that hasn't even started up.

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

This article covers a Chinese school that is in no way notable(see WP:GNG) and has no listed sources besides the school's own website. The article itself is a stub and has no additional information of note besides the year it was founded, the schools that hosted it before. I also see that this school is not a public schools, and there are several others public schools in Edison Township and several other towns which are more notable, yet have been deleted(See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Adams Middle School (Edison, New Jersey). The unverifiable and at times irrelevant content within the article simply does not belong in an encyclopedia. Wikipedia should keep the reference to the school on the Edison Township page under Private Schools(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison,_New_Jersey#Private_schools) and directly provide a link to the school's website.

Listed news sources are not the needed substantial significant coverage and mere announcements and notices aren't actual in-depth coverage, and republished ones to serve the company are easy to find and is the case here.

Non-notable nightclub owner. Part of a WP:WALLEDGARDEN of articles about non-notable topics created by an editor with an obvious WP:COI, see this thread at COIN for details. This article is sourced to a single Swedish newspaper article and the subject's autobiography, which is itself extremely obscure (A worldcat search finds it in one library, in Sweden). The article creator has a record of making deceptive citations, and when I do an independent search for this person I find next to nothing. No evidence this person meets WP:GNG, WP:BIO, etc. and in itself owning a popular nightclub (assuming it even was as popular as this article claims) is not a noteworthy achievement.

  • Agree with move, per our series guidelines, especially as there is a novel based on the first game (Giving the series a non-game related media item). However, I'm not sure if the first game should use a little known subtitle as disamb. Sniper Elite (2005 video game) may be more appropriate.

The only source really worth considering is this, which purports to be an extract from an obituary in the Times of India, but it contains very little biographical detail that would be of any actual use in writing an article – and one source doesn't pass the GNG. – Joe (talk) 19:22, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Reply - @Postdlf:, for many articles, WP:IDEALSTUB does apply. However, for lists like this, if they are small enough, they can be merged until they become large enough to split. This article is six months old, is still short, and can be merged into another page, or deleted. Should every artist have a page with all of their songs on it? --Jax 0677 (talk) 18:56, 11 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • We aren't talking about "every artist", we're talking about this one. Or at least everyone else is. You did not attempt nor propose a merge, and we would never delete if merger was a valid option (again, that's in the policies you need to read), but that's moot anyway as consensus is to keep as a separate page and expand, and my support is to keep as well. postdlf (talk) 19:04, 11 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Actually, 100,000+ doesn't guarantee a notability or a Wikipedia article. See Mayor Richard Irvin of Aurora, Illinois. Aurora is the second-largest, according to the infobox on O'Dekirk's page. Joliet comes in at #4. This article was flagged for the Wikipedia community some time ago, and no one seems to have interest in improving it, and that's why it's being nominated for deletion. GetSomeUtah (talk) 16:20, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Keep after Yngvadottir's excellent work on the article. I'm still not really sure that O'Dekirk meets the notability threshold as (I think) all of these sources are routine local politics coverage, but there's enough of that to suggest passing WP:NOTTEMPORARY. And I suppose WP:OSE: most mayors of American cities of this size have articles, and with respect to AusLondonder, the number of cities of this size in India is completely irrelevant. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 11:51, 11 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Joliet has a population of just short of 150,000, so the standards for geographic range of coverage aren't as strict as they would have to be if it had a population of just 500 or 1,000. We accept mayors of major cities as notable, as long as they cite reliable sources and say more than just "he exists, the end" — for a city of this size with a directly elected executive mayor, the coverage doesn't have to nationalize nearly as much as it would for the mayor of a small village.

NN hockey player with an undistinguished career in the minor leagues.

Previous AfD in 2014 marred by a good bit of (inaccurate) wikilawyering, so let's set up some disclaimers up front: to wit, playing in the Alpenliga does not (nor ever has) satisfy the requirements of NHOCKEY. Winning a second-team all-star citation in the junior amateur leagues does not (nor ever has) satisfy the requirements of NHOCKEY. Playing a lot of games in the now-defunct Central Hockey League does not (nor ever has) satisfy the requirements of NHOCKEY. Nothing the player did in his career, in fact, satisfies NHOCKEY, part and parcel of the article creator's oeuvre of making many hundreds of articles in open defiance of notability standards, for which he was eventually community banned from new article creation. We're left, therefore, with the GNG, and there is no evidence beyond routine sports coverage debarred by WP:ROUTINE that the subject meets it. Ravenswing 12:18, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The result was speedy keep: The previous AfD for this article was also held on WP:N grounds and concluded keep. Since there have been no changes in the notability of the article's subject matter, any further discussions on whether to delete this page on notability grounds ought to go via WP:DRV as per WP:DPAFD, as continued AfDs on the same grounds with no change in substance are disruptive regardless of whether or not they are made in good faith. However, reviewers may wish to note that all users below arguing in favour of deletion are relatively new accounts and even possible sockpuppets, calling good faith into question.

This article does not pass WP:GNG. The article includes large amounts of information not mentioned in what appears to be little more than passing references in articles commenting on their important to a minor online micronational community. This article is plainly an exercise in self-aggrandizement that has been previously kept through nothing more than people quickly scanning through the references list and assuming that the sources are enough to qualify it for WP:GNG. The sources do not contain enough information to justify and article and the majority of its contents is original research. Guys, WP:INDISCRIMINATE.

Delle89 (talk) 17:26, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The first point is clearly invalid: argumentum ad hominem is not a valid refutation of our argument. It is, granted, information that the administrators might find useful, however, so I would provide them with the following additional guidance. Both User:Delle89 and User:Qwertyuiop1994 are also micronationalists, and the latter was also involved in the so-called "dispute," which was in mid-August, and is according to his own logic only here for personal reasons. This warning here would seem to suggest that User:Qwertyuiop1994 is closely involved with Austenasia: [2]. I don't think that this is relevant, as I believe that he is here for the same reason I am - to argue for what he believes is the correct application of Wikipedia policy. However, I would just like to have it known that, should he attempt to invalidate my nomination through childish ad hominem techniques, that he himself is in exactly the same position of supposed non-neutrality.
The second point appears on the surface to hold validity. However, I do not believe that the sources provided in the article are sufficient justification for a Wikipedia article. Of the references that appear to be reliable secondary sources, the following are broken links: [3][4][5]. I am also unable to analyse [6], but as it is a trvia book, I expect that any reference to Austenasia will be little more than a passing note or comment. That leaves us with six remaining references to newspapers. Only three of these provide more information than a passing reference. Moving to a side point for a second, this article was clearly written by Austenasia with the intention of self-endorsement, or depending on your inclination, self-aggrandisement. The article contained large amounts of unreferenced details about Austenasia that could only have been written by an expert in the country, and the wording was near-identical to the country's article on MicroWiki, a website owned by Austenasia's emperor. In the words of User:JamesBWatson, a Wikipedia administrator specialising in anti-vandalism, "Nobody is free to use Wikipedia for self-promotion,

whether they are "in the news" or not."[7]. Another admin in 2010 also warned User:Qwertyuiop1994 that Austenasia was non-notable: [8], but this is a weaker strand of my argument and I would invite refutation of my stronger points also.

This article was clearly created by Austenasia to self-promote their nation based on one or two brief references in books and larger newspapers, likely based on automatic web searches that found their minor news articles, and a few longer articles in the national news that have been used to try to justify their continued self-promotion through our encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not the place for this.

Delete WP:ARTIST lays out a 4 point test for evaluating the notability of photographers and other creative professionals. It reads:

1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.

2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique.

3. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.

4. The person's work (or works) either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) has won significant critical attention, or (d) is represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.

Unless O'Doherty or Smyth details Paul Sepuya's importance or citations by his peers, I do not see evidence to support part 1. One of these sources would also need to be used to show a significant new concept or theory for a notability claim under part 2.

There is nothing here about a significant, well-known work co-created by Sepuya, so I cannot support a part 3 claim.

This leaves the options for part 4 of the guideline. If there was significant critical attention, I would expect to see evidence of that within the article. Currently there is none. I would also expect that a significant monument or exhibition would have coverage. The only museum that is independently shown to hold Sepuya's work in it's collection at this time based on the article is the Leslie-Lohman museum. Using the Yancey Richardson source for a listing of museums holding Sepuya's work is inadvisable as it is not independent (Yancey Richardson represents the subject, and thus has a vested interest in Sepuya being valuable). Checking the collections listed on that site against the museum's own websites, it appears only MoMA and it's Irish equivalent IMMA are actually in possession of Sepuya's work. 3 museums is hardly several. If more evidence can be brought to show notability, I would be open to changing my opinion, but there is not enough for me to support keeping currently. Hamtechperson 07:57, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Comment Thanks, this is good research. Three museums is indeed several. MOMA is widely recognized as one of the leading contemporary art museum in the world. Notability is clearly satisfied on the colelctions count. Saying someone is one only three museums... well, how many does one have to be in? The dictionary says "more than two" for several.

While the last discussion reached no consensus, it is glaringly obvious now that this fails the duration of coverage section of the event notability guideline. The investigation into Sound Transit is underway and absolutely zero coverage has mentioned this "incident", instead focusing on actual issues.

Nobody here is debating cited facts and documents on my page. No, whether my page should exist or not. This reeks of censorship.

True. I have tipped off the media since you're attempting to censor before a major legislative hearing on Thursday: http://app.leg.wa.gov/mobile/meetingschedules/Agenda?CommitteeId=17548&Date=10%2F05%2F2017%2013%3A00 .

I'm not going to mince words any more: You and SounderBruce can't wait until AFTER the Thursday hearings to see if you're right this is a "idiosyncratic" campaign or a civil liberties violation. The fact you can't wait means I need to tip off folks this is going on and poke around. More censorship attempts give me credibility... and remember we're not discussing content. STAND DOWN. JosefAbraham 05:58, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia is for documenting political movements or other topics that have already achieved encyclopedic notability. Go use the ample free speech rights you already have, convince reliable sources that this is a topic of lasting notability, and then this topic will be worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia. But (IMO) it isn't right now. You shouldn't claim "censorship" just because Wikipedia policy might result in deleting a page you care about, and it will not help persuade other editors to keep it. The only thing that can do that is demonstrating encyclopedic notability from independent reliable sources. I would recommend not yelling at people to "STAND DOWN" again, as a person with COI berating other editors into silence is what actually registers as censorship around here.

JosefAbraham here. Shelbystripes, let me begin by thanking you for wading in here. Danjryan, SounderBruce and most certainly I are all three very emotionally attached to lobbying for public transit in the Puget Sound region. I am assuming you are not.

I told my two compatriots to "stand down" because they are major contributors to SeattleTransitBlog.com (full disclosure I am very supportive of that website and have contributed not just comments but occasionally money and Page Two writings) and seemingly were trying to protect Sound Transit by covering up a major data leak right now under Washington State Senate investigation. I am a believer in civil liberties and believe tracking who owns a ORCA card and who does not is a violation of civil liberties.

That said, could I have been a bit more gracious? Probably. But the timing of this tag by SounderBruce clearly is questionable. Certainly since he has not added a section on his ORCA Card page about this incident - and deleted my attempt to do so. Censorship to not mention this incident on the ORCA Card page? Probably.

I have attempted and will attempt to keep the main page about the facts and just the facts. My vote to keep this page was so folks could come to the main page and see the facts. See who, what, when, where, why and how. Again, nobody here is debating specific content. I have in the past welcomed edits to make the content better, less emotional and easier to understand.

If somehow, against all the documentation in Washington State Senate Investigation on this page, the ORCA user data disclosure incident does not feature in that hearing Thursday, I will change my vote. All I have done is advise certain souls these WikiPedia antics are going on.

Furthermore, full disclosure I donated to Mass Transit Now and give Transportation Choices Coalition $5 a month. I also testified in front of the ORCA Joint Board Monday, 2 October 2017 advising them this incident may have breached RCW 42.17A.555 which prohibits the use of lists to further ballot measures like Sound Transit 3. As this is speculation, did not make mainstream media, did not get an ORCA Joint Board response, and I am not a lawyer; I do not think these personal views belong on the main WikiPedia page.

I think transit advocates need not be "yes men" or "yes women" to one another, but truly passionate supporters capable of criticizing transit agencies. This leak happened. It needs to be patched and its patching needs documentation.

I hope you and other disinterested parties are satisfied. Again, If somehow, against all the documentation in Washington State Senate Investigation on the original page, the ORCA user data disclosure incident does not feature in that hearing Thursday, I will change my vote.

I read the (long) posts above and what little policy-based argument I can infer from it is that this incident will be subject of a state senate hearing soon which counts towards notability. Except it does not: putting something at the agenda of a senate hearing is equivalent to a primary source written by senators and their staff; I have not looked at the rules for the Washington state senate so I do not know whether it takes one senator or more than half of them or whatever, but regardless it is a primary source and hence does not contribute to notability.
It might be that after the hearing there will be some media noise whose amplitude may or may not reach the bar of notability, but we do not base notability on speculation. TigraanClick here to contact me 15:52, 4 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Delete Timing of delete request not significant. This article was not newsworthy a year ago when the original author first started pushing the "Orcaleak" fake scandal. Repeated attempts to contact journalists and state senator offices that his article may get deleted are not appropriate. Senate office has declined a request from the author to testify on this subject. If topic is referenced in Senate hearing, that is still a one-day news story, if that, and not notable. "Events are often considered to be notable if they act as a precedent or catalyst for something else." Danjryan (talk) 19:40, 4 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Keep for now I have no job connection to the Washington State Senate, period. As to Wikipedia:Notability, let me quote at length from the article, ""Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." ""Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected." "The evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition, and that this was not a mere short-term interest, nor a result of promotional activity or indiscriminate publicity, nor is the topic unsuitable for any other reason. Sources of evidence include recognized peer-reviewed publications, credible and authoritative books, reputable media sources, and other reliable sources generally."

Take a look at the References tab of ORCA user data disclosure incident. You will see RCWs cited, investigative reports cited and reputable media sources cited - Seattle Times (2x), KTTH and Everett Herald. Perhaps I am mistaken in preferring primary sources over secondary sources in citation.

I agree with Danjryan, "Events are often considered to be notable if they act as a precedent or catalyst for something else." As I speak, the ORCA Card is being upgraded to a new version. Multiple pieces of state legislation will be likely introduced from tomorrow's hearing. Let's all wait until tomorrow's hearing and see what comes of it.

Perhaps a permastub would balance the concerns about notability and documentation. I would be open to this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JosefAbraham (talkcontribs) 20:17, 4 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Now that the "hearing" into this issue (buried under other election-related inquiries) has passed, it's pretty obvious that the media will not be giving it continuing coverage, thus it fails Duration of coverage. The prospect of lasting effects is also slim to none, so there really is no argument for keeping this article on the site. SounderBruce 23:01, 7 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I think if there was a merge into the ORCA Card article by SounderBruce, I could support that. But I doubt SounderBruce will play ball.

That said, the message I'm getting from disinterested WikiPedia contributors is that may be the best route to take. The hearings did uncover most of if not all the unsavory details and a final report is coming out soon. Will anything come of the requests for further investigations? Sadly, unlikely.

  • More comment - the RSA website makes it very clear that almost anyone can apply to be a fellow provided they can satisfy one or more fairly low level threshold crteria. This is nothing like some other fellowships such as Fellowship of the Royal Society which is reserved for only the most gifted scientific minds.

Does not appear to be notable, and connected to two red-linked companies (not necessarily non-notable, but probably). Article makes a claim of importance (CEO, won an award from a magazine), so is not speedily deletable. One article in a non-trivial publication focuses entirely on her. I'm looking in results of various Google searches and not seeing much else; just lots of social profiles, entries in businesspeople indexes, and false positives. I did clean up the article a bit (it was originally mostly a copy-paste from one of cited sources). There's not much there, though the two sources can be used to provide additional details, like education. The problem is lack of additional coverage in independent reliable sources to satisfy WP:GNG. The award-granting magazine may have done an article on her. Our article was created by someone who never made another edit [34] and is presumably the subject or someone close to the subject. The local-government source cited is obviously just regurgitating from a self-authored bio. I was going to WP:PROD this, but I have enough of a suspicion that there might be some additional material on this person that AfD seems more appropriate, especially since the material we have dates to between 11 and 20 years ago, so Ms. Lee White may have gone on to bigger-better things. Maybe the WP:WPWIR folks have good resources for salvaging such articles; I listed this AfD in their deletion tracker. PS: I've opened an RM at Talk:Jeannette Lee, that will move this article to Jeannette Lee White if it is kept, to match info in the decade-newer source.  — SMcCandlish ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ʌ<  23:15, 2 October 2017 (UTC), updated 10:11, 3 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Nfitz is topic banned from the Wikipedia namespace and therefore has no standing to comment here. See Wikipedia:Editing restrictions/Placed by the Wikipedia community. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:24, 14 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  1. Oceania Football - this is a primary source, the interview is from the OFC's official website, GNG needs coverage in secondary sources.
  2. tiemporeal.mx - this is simply a brief article that states little more than he is a Mexican player in New Zealand, difficult to see how this could be used to build out much encyclopedic content
  3. voxy.co.nz - Although the article title mentions the player, this is not significant coverage of the player himself, with the article mentioning him in the context of routine transfer talk before spending most of the article discussing his club.
  4. ESPN - significant enough in my opinion to help support GNG, but this coupled with one other Spanish source of minimal length isn't really enough overall. Fenix down (talk) 08:41, 13 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
If that player were to come to AfD again I would probably err on the side of caution and say that it probably is primary in the sense that both articles are essentially using the interview with the player to promote club's belonging to their confederation's participation in the club world cup. On your other sources:
  1. apuntesderabona - looks like a blog to me, not really sure of its significance in terms of coverage
  2. Univision - doesn't really discuss the player in great depth, about half of the brief-ish article talks about games Auckland might play in the tournament and elements are openly credited as having been lifted from his clubs official (and therefore WP:PRIMARY webpage)
  3. maquinacementera.com - does add a bit more significant coverage, but I'm not completely convinced. There seems to be a fair bit of little articles out there and a couple of interviews, but I'm not sure there is enough for GNG. Fenix down (talk) 13:23, 13 October 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I reached the same conclusion at Fenix down regarding the GNG. Most of the sources in the es:Wikipedia article don't qualify as significant coverage in reliable sources (apuntesderabona and maquinacementara are self-published blogs) and the few that come close just aren't enough.
