  • With rare exception, we don't include non-major works in these lists, given Wikipedia is not a CV. If it's not appropriate for the main article it's probably not appropriate for the bibliography. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:02, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • As per WP:BIBLIOGRAPHY We include books and other entries such as articles in academic journals. The entries that were removed failed the goals so there is no catch 22 situation because they should never have been included in the first place. Catch 22 refers to a situation where there are contradictory rules, if there had been a rule that BIBLIOGRAPHY articles are allowed so long as there are more than 10 entries including essays and newspaper articles but a second rule that says essays and newspaper articles are not notable so are not allowed in lists then I would have agreed with you but this isn't the case.

Semi-advertorialized article about a band whose claims to passing WP:NMUSIC are not properly sourced. This claims charting hits in Billboard's Canadian Hot 100 and Dance charts, but the source being cited to support them isn't actually Billboard -- it's an unreliable WP:BADCHART provider called Alphacharts, which is not accepted as a notability-conferring chart on Wikipedia, and the chart positions completely fail right across the board to verify on the real Billboard site. And beyond the falsified charting data, there's not a single reference being cited here at all for anything else. As always, it's not what an article says that determines whether it qualifies for inclusion or not, it's how well the article references what it says as true, and this isn't even trying to do that at all.

Keep The BADCHART claim can be easily debunked. Here for example the number 8 position proof on U.S. Dance Chart for "Shadows" on August 21, 2010 chart https://www.billboard.com/music/audio-playground/chart-history/dance-electronic-digital-song-sales/song/661950 Let's take #39 position for "Famous" on Canadian Hot 100 It is justified here https://www.billboard.com/music/audio-playground/chart-history/canadian-hot-100/song/702591 How about the hit "Emergency"? It charted on Canadian Hot 100 reference here https://www.billboard.com/music/audio-playground/chart-history/canadian-hot-100/song/742132 Charting for "(A Little) Respect" at #77 in Canadian Hot 100 Here is the reference https://www.billboard.com/music/audio-playground/chart-history/canadian-hot-100/song/621072 Their number 1 hit "Hands Up in the Air" was not only number 1 on U.S. Dance Club Chart but also stayed 13 weeks on that chart https://www.billboard.com/music/audio-playground/chart-history/dance-club-play-songs/song/809839 Their hit You Never Know made it to #5 on U.S. Dance Chart and stayed 12 weeks on the chart https://www.billboard.com/music/audio-playground/chart-history/dance-club-play-songs/song/776737 werldwayd (talk) 00:48, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Ihave now added all the positions one by one linking to Billbiard I have also added references from more sources including from Journal de Montréal, Montreal's biggest selling daily as in here https://www.journaldemontreal.com/2016/07/03/de-gros-noms-pour-audio-playground werldwayd (talk) 01:38, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly why is it, then, that when I went to Billboard not an hour ago and typed "Audio Playground" in the exact same fucking search bar, exactly nothing turned up? Do you mean to claim that Billboard has some magical ability to only not work when I search for something, but work perfectly well for everybody else but me? And if those are true, then why aren't they in the article instead of Alphacharts, which most certainly is an inherently invalid badchart? Bearcat (talk) 01:35, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have done the homework and now you have justification of each and every position linked to the exact Billboard page. Canadian Billboard 100 is very mainstream and the best indication for chart notability in Canada, though I admit U.S. Dance Club Songs and U.S. Dance/Electronic Digital Song are more specialized charts. "Hands Up in the Air" is a number 1 for them. Please do check all my links now added. Sorry for that. You may have a point about alphacharts and acharts, they may not be admissable, but they are almost always very accurate in their claims of positions and personally I find them helpful as this case clearly conveys. werldwayd (talk) 01:42, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WP:N and WP:NOT - it fails WP:GNG. This article is about a comparatively small prize at a private British school, Eton College. The sources provided are obscure, and generally mention it only in passing - usually they only write that some famous person happened to win it in their youth. The only text on it appears to be published by Eton, so is a primary source. These issues haven't been fixed for several years. The tables of winners truly are indiscriminate collections of information, and have not been kept up to date. Eton College has many prizes listed on its page already, and this one doesn't need to be separate. Knowto (talk) 22:29, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • The present monetary value of the prize (something like £250?) is modest but was very considerable when first established in 1829. In any event, the prestige of the prize does not depend on its monetary value.
  • The alleged obscurity of the cited sources is a matter of opinion; they are, I think, reliable. They tend to be of a biographical nature and naturally do not dwell on the prize at enormous length. Nevertheless, a number of notable winners of the prize have regarded it as a significant life event.
  • The cited monograph was published by Eton but was written by a reputable independent academic, Dr David Butterfield (and it is in any event not necessary, in order to establish a matter's notability, to show that it is the primary subject of a published text).
  • I'm not sure what is meant by describing the list of winners as an "indiscriminate" collection of information. It seems to me to be a collection of information that is focused, limited and relevant. Wikipedia contains many lists and the tables in this article do not appear to me to fall into any of the four categories expressly identified at WP:NOT.
  • The Scholarship is generally acknowledged to be Eton's most prestigious prize (a fact not disproved by the existence of equally remunerative prizes in other fields). I expect that a published source for that proposition could be identified if necessary. (One sees here that the College itself lists the Newcastle first among all prizes awarded.)
  • Google Books searches produce over 3,000 results for “Newcastle scholarship” Eton and over 1,700 results for “Newcastle scholar” Eton. The article is of potential value to readers of those books. And surely the number of hits is some indication of notability?
  • The article has contributions from at least a dozen identified editors, who presumably all take an interest in the topic; it's not an obsessive individual's personal hobby-horse.
45ossington (talk) 14:16, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
May I add this by way of rebuttal of the charge that published sources mention the Newcastle only in passing? Miles Jebb's Patrick Shaw Stewart, An Edwardian Meteor (Dovecote Press, 2010) has this description of the contest between Patrick Shaw-Stewart and Ronald Knox:

"The Newcastle has been described by a subsequent victor as the Everest of Eton scholarships. Founded by the Duke of Newcastle in 1829, it consisted of ten papers, taken morning and afternoon over five days in late March. Most of these were in construing unseen Greek and Latin Prose, and composing Greek and Latin Verses. To these were added a general paper on Divinity, and detailed examinations on St Matthew's Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles in the original Greek. With few exceptions it had been won by Collegers, and in the previous year by Daniel MacMillan, with Ronald Knox as proxime accessit. It was generally expected that Knox would now get it, even though he was younger than several of the other contenders, and would be able to try for it again in the following year. The two examiners were Oxford or Cambridge Dons, though famously Mr Gladstone had once taken it upon himself to judge the Newcastle. Those sitting for it were cosseted and given the unique privilege of playing fives between the buttresses of College Chapel between their mental gymnastics. The result was published in The Times and the winner considered by many to be the cleverest boy in the country. The Scholarship was worth £50 for three years. Patrick could look forward to two further Newcastle contests, but decided to go all out for this one for a special reason. It was the convention that the Newcastle winner, if not already in Sixth Form, would be immediately promoted into it. In his case this would place him above Prior and secure for him the Captaincy of the School in 1906/7. It was indeed a mountainous task, and several of the aspirants were two years older than he was. But, encouraged by the Reynolds victory, he set forth to climb it, or rather, to dig into it – ‘to sap like a thousand devils.' He ploughed slowly and deliberately through the scriptural texts, reading every word of a book once begun, and refraining from annotating down the side, determined to rely on his memory. Although the Classical texts could not be prepared, he spent weeks studying the Birds of Aristophanes, without notes or cribs. The week of trial began. He rendered into English verse passages from Homer, Aeschylus and Aristophanes, and from Lucretius, Horace, Lucan and Martial; and into English prose passages from Thucydides, Aeschines and Plato, and from Cicero, Livius and Tacitus. He composed his Greek hexameters and iambics and his Latin hexameters, elegiacs and lyrics, from passages of English poetry. And he answered the technical questions relating to grammar and criticism in Classics and in Divinity. On 7 April the result was announced: Patrick had won. As Evelyn Waugh puts it in his biography of Ronald Knox: 'On hearing the result, Ronald sat down and read the Book of Job straight through; Shaw-Stewart gave up work for the next four years.'"

It seemed to be a big deal about the older books, but it is mainly from the same sources, mostly biographies of the people involved, which of course will mention that they got the scholarship, or writeups about Eton in general. The question is how this would differ in impact like the Rhodes Scholarship or Fulbright scholarship whether it's more like a local valedictorian award. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 02:18, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'll strike my vote on this. I've seen more frivolous awards posted with less reliable sources. I do ask that the history of the prize be described away from the lead paragraph, and that the detailed lists either be sourced or scrubbed to list the names without the pre-nominals. The post-noms such as KS seem to be normal for the listing as shown in this 2010 prize summary: [4] The examiners and examiner topics should be removed as excessive detail, but with particular topics of note described in the history section. Supporting minor prizes like The Rosebery Prize (History); The Andrew Duncan Prize (2nd); The Martineau Prize (3rd) should be removed.AngusWOOF (barksniff) 03:33, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The prize has enough prestige in the general academic world, beyond Eton, to be notable. The small monetary value is irrelevant.
If for no other reason than that many of the recipients are themselves notable, the list itself is worth keeping. We allow lists of players at minor football clubs and suchlike; surely this is more notable?
Obviously it is not an indiscriminate collection of information.
It is too long to move to the Eton College article, which is already rather long.
However, perhaps all the school postnominals should be deleted as they are not of sufficient general interest outside the Eton community.----Ehrenkater (talk) 15:58, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • It would be impertinent of me to suggest that your perspective may have been distorted by excessive modesty on the part of a former winner, but I am struck by the apparent strength of your feeling that what is at worst a fairly harmless article should be deleted. I agree that not many today will have heard of the Newcastle; all the more reason for Wikipedia to furnish means for the enlightenment of those who come across published references to it. I also accept that the particular prestige of the prize (for Etonians) may have been more apparent in the past than it is now, but I am not inclined on this issue to allow the editorial judgments of recent editors of Spectrum (though I'm sure it's a valuable production) to outweigh the accumulated historical significance of some 150 years of published references. Your allusions to the distinction of recent judges of the Huxley Prize, and/or the vagaries of the Oxbridge admissions process, seem to me somewhat off-point. And would Wikipedia be a better place if it generally excluded articles about institutions that had declined in importance? 45ossington (talk) 16:11, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • It possibly is a touch impertinent of you, but I'll explain anyway: my desire to delete this page is because I care about Eton and its prizes—which would make sense given I used to compile them all in a yearbook. I think that the somewhat elitist view propagated on this AfD page—which presents the Newcastle Scholarship as some incredibly hard and incredibly prestigious prize—is beyond inaccurate, it's actually slightly harmful to Eton. It wrongly makes Eton look outdated, obsessed with its own prizes and history, and focused mainly on (to quote the Newcastle page itself): "Classics (Greek and Latin language and literature) and Divinity (the Bible scriptures)." This perspective is exacerbated by the full list of winners the page includes, and I feel that it couldn't be further from the truth. It is also unfair to the other prizes, like the Huxley, Rosebery, or the new Hoberman Entrepreneurship prize, among countless others. These prizes are at least as competitive, but obviously don't merit an entire page because they're not a big deal outside of Eton—just like the Newcastle scholarship. This may not be the most Wikipedia-centric argument to delete a page, but the claim I'm making is that this page's existence presents a modern institution inaccurately and unfairly. The allusions to Oxbridge and judges were simply intended to show that this "most prestigious" line that is printed more than once (see the Eton College page and the Newcastle Scholarship page) is subjective, and has changed over time. And I maintain that the published references are mostly tangential, or not included on the Newcastle Scholarship page (though thank you for adding Miles Jebb). I have been able to find several of the others, and it's basically two words in a few of the seven cases. What I don't know is the extent of the Newcastle's historical relevance; if this can be proven to fulfill WP:GNG, it has a place on Wikipedia. However, the full lists of winners feel irrelevant to any historical relevance, and should surely be removed for a more concise list of notable winners?

  • The lead paragraph has been "sourced" by an unrelated article. Diff 1
  • The whole "Defining characteristics" section has been entirely made up per WP:SYNTH: None of these sources actually say anything about the article topic. Diff 2, Diff 3, Diff 4, Diff 5
  • At this point, I have added an ((original research)) tag to the article. Diff 6
  • There has been citation overkill (see this essay) with unreliable sources, press releases, marketing blog posts, YouTube interviews. Diff 7, Diff 8, Diff 9, Diff 10, Diff 11
  • The sentence "Computer security experts generally describe cyberattacks in terms of five generations", previously the sentence with the most citations in the article, consequently turned out to be original research as well. Diff 12
  • The last reference that said anything about the article topic turned out to be a login-walled source. Using Google Cache, I was able to access it. Below the source, I found the following notice about the source's author: "Rick Rogers [line break] Rogers is Regional Director for Africa at Check Point Software Limited" -- That's the same company that Cindyjwilson, the article creator, has declared to work for. Not a reliable source, and original research as well. Diff 13
  • There are some reliable sources left, but they say nothing about the article topic and are just describing the general cybersecurity situation of the world.

Cyberattack is a notable topic. This material was WP:SPLIT out of that article. We can talk about whether this actually deserves its own article or should be merged back to Cyberattack but the nom and most of the participants have (rightfully) whizzed right past that to more serious WP:NEO and WP:OR concerns. ~Kvng (talk) 20:17, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Already !voted on that basis. Curious about what Wikipedia notability policy the article author had in mind when creating the separate article. Bakazaka (talk) 20:21, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Bakazaka: The author is an inexperienced editor who contributed generations material to Cyberattack and wanted to expand further on 5th generation but we were concerned about a potential WP:UNDUE issue in Cyberattack. So giving the inexperienced editor sort of a sandbox seemed reasonable and we'd improve organization depending on how that developed. Wikipedia is a work in progress and, if the material is bogus, it's easy enough to delete. No need for pitch forks. Cindyjwilson has been upfront about her COI and we discussed all this at Talk:Cyberattack as it was happening. ~Kvng (talk) 20:50, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Good to know, thanks. Bakazaka (talk) 20:53, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Cindyjwilson: I'd like to know what specific reliable sources you believe have been using this generations terminology. Detailed comments above claim that it is only Checkpoint. If that's so, it's a serious problem. ~Kvng (talk) 20:11, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Kvng Thank you for asking, here is the thought process that initially lead me to believe that this topic met Wikipedia's notability standard.

First, the "five generations" discussed today grow out of the idea of "three generations" of firewall, which is very well established, and is prominently featured in Wikipedia's own article firewall (computing). Initially I looked at the "firewall" article, but because a firewall is not the proper tool to protect against the more recent generations, it didn't make sense to add it there, where it's only tangentially relevant. That's why I came to the cyberattack article -- because it seemed like the more natural fit. For the first three "generations," there are numerous reliable sources, which cite a wide variety of primary sources (industry experts, analysts, etc.) over many years. Just a couple examples -- more should be very easy to find if needed: TechRepublic (2002) and Computer Weekly (2012).

As I pointed out above, the definition of cyberattack had no references more recent than 2010, which I think anybody familiar with the field would agree is problematic for a rapidly evolving field. (I see that an editor here has since reverted it to that state, overriding the discussion you and I had on the talk page.)

I already listed the core articles I think establish it on Talk:Cyberattack, but here is a somewhat annotated, and updated, list:

Independent industry analysts who have used the terms -- analysts like these will communicate with companies in the industry, but this kind of piece reflects the analyst's perspective, it is not a commisioned report. I consider this a strong indication of general industry knowledge, and I believe it meets WP:RS.

Earned media -- these are publishers that make their own editorial judgments. If it's an interview with Check Point personnel, or in some cases a byline by Check Point personnel, there is still independent judgment being exercised for it to be published. These are not recycled press releases, or "pay-to-play" sites.

Industry usage -- these are companies independent of Check Point which are also using the "five generations" terminology. While they may not score high as "reliable sources," I believe their usage of the term speaks to its usage outside of my own company.

Discussion of general concepts I can see from discussion by others above that WP:SYNTH may be a concern here. But these articles also initially struck me as significant, because even though they do not use the word "generation," they discuss trends in ways that align with the "generations" thinking.

To the editor who took offense to my naming them, I am sorry. I am still getting familiar with the etiquette here; I had thought that, since we had an extensive discussion about my editing, they would be interested to know the next step in the discussion, and I honestly thought they had reviewed my edits fairly closely. I meant no disresepect. I appreciate that they took the time to weigh in here.

One last point -- I hope the admin who closes this discussion will take note that the discussion was started on Twitter, by a competitor, and a good deal of discussion and coordination took place off Wikipedia, among editors who may or may not have undisclosed conflicts of interest of their own. I don't know how much that should impact the outcome, but I hope it is at least taken into consideration. Kvng, I appreciate your taking my good intentions toward Wikipedia, and I hope our competitors in the field share my wish to approach Wikipedia with curiosity and deference to the judgment of more experienced editors. -Cindy (talk) 01:23, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: First off, this is not about cyber attacks in general, it is about this specific term an if we need an extra page for it. It is possible - and you are very welcome to - improve the cyberattack article without getting into "generations".
Second, the sources you provided seem to be very much "inspired" by the same source - most use the same language and imagery. Still no evidence that this is used at independent conferences, in research papers, etc. Even if the terminology were picked up by some companies, the most it would warrant would be a single remark in the cyberattack article.
Third, if a reputable source reports that some of your company talked about something, it does not automatically mean that they endorse that it is a term that is widely used.
For full disclosure: While I found this through Twitter, I have been a Wikipedia editor for many years and have no relation at all to the cyber security or ties to any vendor. I actually consider it a good thing that it brought attention to this matter. Averell (talk) 06:40, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Radio station not properly sourced as passing WP:NMEDIA's criteria for the notability of radio stations. Every radio station that exists is not automatically presumed notable — a radio station has to pass all four of four criteria to qualify for a Wikipedia article. But this station appears to fail two of the four conditions: radio station requires a permanent OFCOM license, not just temporary special authority licenses, and it requires that the station is the subject of reliable source coverage to properly verify the article's content.

The four base conditions that a radio station always has to meet to be deemed notable are that (a) it has a broadcast license from the appropriate regulatory authority (note the section on "unlicensed stations" that deprecates those as not notable in most circumstances), (b) it is actually on the air ("established broadcast history") rather than existing solely as an unlaunched construction permit, (c) it originates at least a portion of its programming schedule in its own dedicated studios ("originator of some programming") rather than existing as a pure rebroadcaster of another radio service, and (d) all three of those facts are referenceable to reliable sources outside the station's own self-published web presence. (People have created fake websites to "wikiverify" the existence of radio stations that didn't really exist at all, so a station's self-published claims about itself are not evidence that it actually meets any of the other three conditions.) Bearcat (talk) 18:36, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Bearcat:. I don't think your interpretation of the guidelines are reasonable. The use of words such as 'either' and 'or' clearly shows that not all conditions need to be met. Having looked into the station, it does have an established broadcast history having broadcast since the 1970s. I wasn't going to vote on this one, but I'm very concerned that your AFD summary includes an incorrect description of what a radio station needs to do in order to pass as notable. Ross-c (talk) 19:42, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, I was one of the core writers of our notability standards for media — so my "interpretation" of what a radio station has to do to pass it can never be incorrect. If I worded it unclearly in some places, I can certainly revise that — but nothing I say about the notability criteria for radio stations can ever be wrong, because I was directly involved in the process of creating them in the first place, so I know exactly what they are and what they're supposed to be. Reliable source referencing about the radio station, for instance, is always absolutely mandatory, and never optional or overlookable — no radio station, regardless of what notability criteria the text claims the station passes, ever gets a free notability pass without reliable sourcing, because Wikipedia has seen hoax articles created about radio stations that didn't really exist at all. There are extremely rare exceptions where an unlicensed radio station, such as the North Sea pirate stations of the 1960s, got enough coverage and had wide enough cultural impact to clear WP:GNG regardless of the lack of a conventional broadcast license, but that still depends on its sourceability and not just on the fact that its existence as a radio station has been claimed — normal radio stations operating in normal contexts do have to be licensed to be presumed notable, and unlicensed stations are not automatically considered notable just because they exist. And all radio stations, with no exceptions for any reason, must always be properly referenced to be notable — no radio station gets handed a notability freebie just because of what the body text says, if the body text doesn't properly reference that what it says is true. Bearcat (talk) 13:05, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Bearcat: As I understood it NMEDIA isn't a policy anyways, so your interpretation could be wrong. Is not policy determined by the consensus of the community, rather than just being whatever you wrote or intended to write? I think you're being a bit self-important with your declarations about the rightness or wrongness of the guideline interpretation. That said, I agree that reliable sourcing is essential regardless of the station's claimed audience size. Zortwort (talk) 20:39, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Interviews are not generally considered useful for notability, as they are not independent of the subject and as Randykitty said above rest of the soruces only give some superficial gossip-style coverage, not the in-depth coverage that required to satisfy GNG. GSS (talk|c|em) 16:17, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Interviews are in fact in-depth coverage by independent sources as it was the independent source that chose to interview the topic, further demonstrating notability. If it was as self-published interview, then it wouldn't be independent. Not the case here. But even without the interview coverage there is still very in-depth coverage by very reliable sources. --Oakshade (talk) 19:21, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Fails WP:V as a list article.
  2. Fails WP:DABMENTION as a dab.
  3. Talk details the flawed creation logic of the creating block evading sock, so presumably this may be deleted as such too. - dabs/SIAs are not for translation purposes which seems the MO.

I've given this the benefit of some time, but the original deletion PROD was spot on, and I regret converting dab to SIA to preserve, as clearly this hasn't been validated at the articles I checked, so needs sources here which has also not been done. As the unsourced tag was removed, this is just an unverified mess with my name on, and returning to a dab with 0 valid entries and deletion is the obvious default. Widefox; talk 14:34, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn by nom - there are two valid entries (per dab). Not sure how I missed them. Widefox; talk 18:42, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like a mistake to me. Andy Dingley - I actually helped preserve this by converting to SIA when deletion was initially discussed, as it seemed the best compromise.

Weak keep, for now. Most sources here (and ghits) are recycled Bravo press releases about its premiering. That doesn't give any notability cred, by television notability and MOS standards. I added viewership numbers, which seem about average for Bravo, but, again, doesn't give this standalone article credibility. There are also rumors that Fredrik doesn't want to continue this series, due to several factors, so this AfD will most likely be revisited again, if kept but not satisfactorily expanded. — Wyliepedia @ 11:12, 12 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bloomberg is a pretty reliable source; the execs of CA and associated companies, arguably less so, especially if they have a clear incentive to deflect attention.

@Ilovetopaint: All the sources that you just added are WP:PRIMARY (related to his death) and do not satisfy notability as per the second bullet of WP:BASIC.--1l2l3k (talk) 16:11, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Huh??? Pitchfork, Dazed Digital, The Fader, or Clash Magazine aren't primary sources. They're a secondary source reporting his death.--Ilovetopaint (talk) 16:20, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Ilovetopaint:Yes, they are primary. They are reporting the death event and did so, because what happened (death). As defined, they are original materials that are close to an event, so they are primary. A secondary source is different, and, as defined in policy, it provides an author's own thinking based on primary sources, generally at least one step removed from an event. A research for real secondary sources on this individual will be worth your time, if you need the article to be saved.--1l2l3k (talk) 16:42, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
In that case there's still 3 (now 4) sources that cover the subject beyond his passing or his work with Test Icicles.--Ilovetopaint (talk) 16:45, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@1l2l3k: That is nonsense, an obituary is a secondary source. The reporters very obviously were not eyewitnesses of the death. They must have got their information from someone else, who is the real primary source. Moreover many of the obituaries in GNews are retrospective and deal with events in his life that took place years ago. Also not primary. James500 (talk) 12:11, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not finding much independent coverage in reliable sources about this subject; specifically, there's a lack of significant coverage in non-primary, non-LDS related sources. As per source searches for said independent coverage, the subject does not appear to meet WP:BASIC. Several primary sources exist about the subject, but they are not usable to establish notability. See also: WP:SPIP:

The barometer of notability is whether people independent of the topic itself (or of its manufacturer, creator, author, inventor, or vendor) have actually considered the topic notable enough that they have written and published non-trivial works of their own that focus upon it—without incentive, promotion, or other influence by people connected to the topic matter.

  • So you admit to having done sub-standard work in searching out sources. Does this mean you also agree to withdraw the nomination since your central claim has been shown to be incorrect?John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:13, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nope, not at all. My deletion nominations always exceed the suggested source searches at part D of WP:BEFORE. Furthermore, The Journal of Mormon History sources added to the article do not show up in Google Scholar searches.
Lastly, below is a review of the The Journal of Mormon History sources that were added to the article:
  • [15] – Consists of a review that the subject performed about another person's work, concluded with a very short "about the reviewer" passage at the end of the review. This does not provide significant coverage about the subject whatsoever, and does not qualify notability.
  • [16] – significant coverage of a non-notable series of four articles that the subject authored, and various matters the subject was involved in in Mexico.
– Thus far, only one independent, reliable source providing significant coverage exists. Please note that WP:BASIC requires significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, not just one. Unless more said required sources exist, the subject simply does not meet WP:BASIC. Also, again, WP:SPIP comes to mind. North America1000 08:00, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment@Middledistance99: Church News is owned by the LDS church, and is the official newspaper of the LDS Church. As such, it is a primary source that does not serve to establish notability for Wikipedia's purposes. Subjects that the LDS church find to be noteworthy are not necessarily notable as per Wikipedia's standards. Multiple, independent reliable sources that provide significant coverage about the subject are needed to qualify notability. Mormon subjects and leaders do not get a free pass for an article without said independent coverage, because there is no guideline or policy that allows for presumed notability for Mormon subjects.

We are voting already (although more a collection of opinions than a strict vote). Just nobody has cast yet. I suspect giving you time to really demonstrate notability if it exists. There's no rush. If a consensus isn't clear after about a week, the discussion can be extended. My hunch so far is notability has not been demonstrated, but I haven't researched any further myself. I suggest reading the relevant policy on corporate notability and seeing what you can come up with, then put it in the article. Lithopsian (talk) 19:42, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You now have four to one (not including the nominator who doesn't have to overcome the hurdle of finding his way here by chance), but consensus isn't a ballot.

No apparent evidence of notability.

FWIW I work as an arts reviewer in New Zealand, and have not heard of Parra (not that thats a valid reason in itself for deletion).

WP:BLP of a person whose claim of notability is not reliably sourced. Wikipedia has no stated notability criteria for religious archdeacons at all, so getting an archdeacon into Wikipedia is a matter of getting her over WP:GNG rather than an automatic presumption of notability just for existing — but the references here are primary sources and Blogspot blogs, not reliable source coverage in real media.

@Bashereyre: I'm not aware of any specific guidelines for churches for which Archdeacons are a post. Comparing to the Catholic church, only quite high status positions seem to confer notability. See: WP:NCATH. As far as I've been able to find, e.g. past AFD discussions (see the actual discussion, not just the result which is often based on WP:GNG it appears that Archdeacons are not by default notable. I'm not actually a religious person so am not real-world-knowledgeable about posts and I'd be prepared to change my vote if information is provided showing that they are, but I have given this a good look through and my current opinion appears to be supported by that research. Thanks for discussing this in a constructive way. Ross-c (talk) 11:54, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. I am unable to find significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. There are plenty of sources in the article, but they're all primary, unreliable (no editorial oversight, download sites, how-to guides, etc.), or (probably) reliable but trivial. (See Talk:DeSmuME for discussions about source issues.) I looked for sources using the WPVG custom Google searches (WP:VG/LRS) and could only find more of the same.

  • Refs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 are primary
  • Refs 6, 10, 12 amd 13 are just code repositories, download pages, specs sheets
  • Ref 11 is credited as a republication of ref 9
  • Refs 9, 14 and 16 probably don't pass reliability standards
  • Refs 9 (and 11), 15, 16, 17 are "how-to" guides with barely any critical commentary or original thought to cite
  • Refs 15 and 16 are also listicles
  • Ref 18 is an odd one, but it's pretty much just a passing mention of Desmume as the software they're using to test the Linux stuff that is the actual topic of the presentation
  • Ref 8 is probably the only reliable one with critical commentary of Desmume but it's also extremely brief.

Extended commentary on GNG/Source reliability, etc.
If anyone could direct me to some resources to help explain “reliable sources” and “significant coverage” in more detail I would be very grateful, please post the information on my user talk page rather than the AfD discussion here, and please do it in a polite, constructive way that doesn’t make it sound like I did anything wrong, although I suppose that by creating this article I DID do something wrong. I will try not to make the same mistake again. I really don’t want to end up back here again with another AfD for another article I wrote, with that article getting deleted too, that would show that I haven’t learned anything about how exactly notability on Wikipedia works, and I really want to learn but it is very confusing. I am on the autistic spectrum and take things very literally and do not think quite the same way as most people so for me personally it is perhaps harder than for the average person to understand the General Notability Guideline (WP:GNG), although I am not really sure, maybe this is also hard for average people too, I would not know since I am not one of them, I would say that I have a bit of a thick skull when it comes to certain things sinking in so I need to put in extra effort to learn them. Thank you everyone and have a wonderful day, and I hope that at least one of you please explains this to me on my user talk page, you can write something yourself or just post some handy links if there already is a detailed explanation of what reliable sources and significant coverage mean. Although those are really 2 separate issues, the reliableness of a source and the significance of the coverage appearing in that source, and I must admit my understanding of both issues is rudimentary at best at the current time, something I hope we can remedy and thereby prevent this exact situation from happening again with another article. For now I suppose I shall proceed with extreme caution regarding the issue of creating new articles and hold myself to higher standards than I did when I wrote the DeSmuME article. But exactly what standards? For instance on the subject of a video game emulator, what is the most reliable source of information on emulators? Does ANY reliable source on that subject even exist, by Wikipedia standards? If not, does that mean that ALL articles on emulators fail to meet notability standards? When I try and examine the standards of Woodroar and Salvidrim, I know that they draw the line regarding sources in a stricter place than I do, but just HOW strict are we talking here? Can you do this for me, can you look at the page List of video game emulators, pick whichever emulator there sounds the most obscure that you have never heard of, look at its Wikipedia page, go through the sources, show me which ones do and don’t establish notability and why, and tell me about it on my user talk page? Because, my suspicion is, for pretty much all of them, if you held those articles to the same standard as this one, poof, the articles would vanish, none of the sources cited would be good enough to establish notability. And then what? Should we delete all of the articles on emulators that are not notable? Or do the other ones meet notability standards, are some of their sources actually ones that satisfy the General Notability Guideline? You see, while I don’t disagree with you about the notability standards, it seems you are not applying those standards consistently. I could force the issue by nominating every single existing video game emulator article for deletion and seeing what happens, but honestly speaking, I am quite fond of emulators as well as the articles on them. I like the article I wrote about DeSmuME and the articles about the other emulators too. But what is good for the goose is good for the gander. There are 34 emulators linked to from List of video game emulators, including DeSmuME. It is my contention that the vast majority of them, if indeed DeSmuME is not notable, are likewise not notable, if you look at their sources and check to see if any meet WP:GNG. When I added the DeSmuME article, it was definitely better-sourced than several of them. So, I would like to see these standards being applied a bit more consistently. And regarding the possibility that Wikipedia might cease to have any articles at all about video game emulators, while that would be sad and all, there are plenty of other wikis including several that are specifically about emulation. Anyway, could you all please look into this? I understand that naturally if I create an article where the previous article was deleted less than a year ago for lack of notability, this arouses suspicion regarding notability, suspicion that does not exist in the same way for articles that have just been sitting there for years under the radar without anyone seriously considering whether they are notable or not. But, having looked at many of those articles and their sources, I have suspicions that they are equally lacking in notability to this one that I wrote. So if you are really going to enforce WP:GNG so strictly, fine, I agree with you, but try and apply the rules consistently to all articles please, instead of enforcing it very strictly on some articles while completely ignoring others. Here are the other articles whose notability might be in doubt: UAE (emulator) Stella (emulator) Xenia (emulator) FCEUX NESticle Nestopia Snes9x ZSNES 1964 (emulator) Mupen64Plus Project64 Project Unreality UltraHLE Dolphin (emulator) Cemu VisualBoyAdvance Citra (emulator) nullDC bleem! bleemcast! Connectix Virtual Game Station ePSXe PCSX-Reloaded PCSX2 RPCS3 PPSSPP higan (emulator) Kega Fusion MAME MESS Mednafen OpenEmu RetroArch While I would prefer it if we could keep all of those articles and find it depressing whenever Wikipedia loses an article, I must say, you have really opened my eyes regarding this General Notability Guideline and the real meanings of “reliable source” and “significant coverage”, and I have now realized, probably the VAST majority of those 33 articles should be deleted for not meeting the General Notability Guideline, if we are really going to be enforcing that rule here. I just thought it would be helpful to point that out, if you really want to enforce that rule. Because it doesn’t seem like you are really enforcing it on all articles, not that it is your fault, of course not, Wikipedia has 6,822,382 articles and it is very hard to go through all of them to find which ones lack notability, it would take almost forever to go through that many, but, I think I just gave you all some very good leads on other articles that probably lack notability, I am giving you 33 good leads. But since I don’t quite understand your standards and originally thought the sources for DeSmuME were fine, and in fact I thought they were better than the sources cited in many of those other articles, obviously I am not the right person to check this given my implicit bias as well as my lack of understanding of the relevant notability policies, and someone who actually understands notability policies much better than I do should look into it. Please get back to me on my user talk page with what you think about all this, and if I am getting anything wrong, please inform me. If nobody responds to me or looks at those articles seriously I suppose I will have to just nominate all 33 of them for deletion myself and let you sort through it then, but I really do not want to have to do that because I really do not understand the policies well enough and I might be nominating articles for deletion that actually do belong on this wiki and I would prefer an expert on these policies do it.
Thank you for reading my lengthy comment, I appreciate your patience very much! Yetisyny (talk) 04:20, 27 August 2018 (UTC
Can´t comment about the other emulators, but there are many reviews (with several pages) of UAE and MAME in published magazines - even their Amiga versions alone would have enough coverage to pass GNG. Sources in the article are too short (few small paragraphs at best) to discuss the article subject in detail. I wonder, wouldn´t be possible to have one phrase about emulator in the console article (with one of the better references) and then redirect? Pavlor (talk) 16:36, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If there are other articles also failing to meet the criteria for inclusion, the solution is not to keep this one, but to also discuss whether the other ones require deletion. Also I decided to alter your comment and collapse a bit of its extended content -- please take absolutely zero offense, I just think its ostentatious length was literally an obstacle to the page's readability and I'm trying to be helpful to others who might want to comment here. :) Ben · Salvidrim!  17:48, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No offense taken. Also that is exactly what I said, that if other articles likewise fail to meet the criteria for inclusion as DeSmuME did, the solution is to discuss whether they require deletion. Also you are right about my comment being a bit too long, I am in total agreement with you on all of those points you just made, and your edit to make this page more readable is eminently justified, I can go on for too long, it is a bad habit of mine. I am serious about other articles maybe not meeting the GNG, I even rewrote one of them myself, the Kega Fusion one. Although it seems another editor just changed that article into a redirect for failing to meet GNG, instead of going through the AfD process. I suppose I might have to fix that since the redirect goes to a page with no relevant info. UPDATE: I just did fix it, you can look at the AfD discussion for Kega Fusion here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kega Fusion Yetisyny (talk) 14:07, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Placing this at AFD as this article's been moved around & been thru a lot of back & forth, but it's an unsourced article on a PROPOSED tv station with no actual release date (per the info box) by a creator who's posted a number of articles on similarly non-existent TV stations. At best this is WP:TOOSOON. JamesG5 (talk) 02:15, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
