Hi John, you removed the filmography...so we need to have a reference for every single film in their filmography in order to include it? Why is not the fact that the film in question has a wikilink to the screenwriter? This does not seem to be the practice for screenwriters or directors or actors.

This is an article on a 30' long US Navy patrol boat that did nothing remarkable, was captained by no one remarkable, and to which nothing remarkable appears to have ever happened. No one died on board, the boat was not hit by any torpedoes, no peace treaties were signed on its deck. As near as I can tell, the only remarkable thing about it is that there is a Wikipedia article on it. I understand that there is a kind of knee-jerk response that says, "If it was a US Navy vessel, it warrants a Wikipedia article." But the logic of that has reached the level of absurdity if we are going to host articles on every piece of wood or metal that the US Navy ever made float. A loose noose (talk) 21:33, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that the boat was small and may not have a particularly exciting career is not in itself a reason for deletion - there is some coverage in reliable sources (i.e. DANFS here) although whether there is enough to justify a standalone article is a different question.Nigel Ish (talk) 22:03, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I had a quick look at that, Nigel, and it looks like it is an archival catalogue entry— yes, it does say some basic things about the boat, but the database it comes from looks like covers every boat in the US Navy, without discrimination. We have pretty clear rules with regards to the kind of coverage that a living person has to have before qualifying for a Wikipedia article, it's hard of fathom (get it?) that the rules for a patrol boat with a non-history like this one's should be so much more generous! A loose noose (talk) 23:51, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to List of patrol vessels of the United States Navy (which doesn't currently list this vessel [and probably needs to be split up, but that's beside the point]). I see no claim of notability (and DANFS is arguably not independent of the subject, so I doubt that'd count toward the GNG). Parsecboy (talk) 22:16, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, added to USN patrol vessel list. The fundamental dilemma is we should either have articles for just about every vessel of this sort (WWI ID and SP designations), or limit the vast majority of them to a list entry. There are several hundred of these vessels. RobDuch (talk) 23:12, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • If the paucity of sources on these vessels means they will permanently be stubs, then I think we have an answer on that question (and whether they pass GNG). Parsecboy (talk) 23:25, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • That certainly seems consistent with existing Wikipedia policy. We might also want to consider that no other existing Wikipedia article other than a few list articles even mentions the craft. Maybe this is partly because there is simply nothing to be said about it. A loose noose (talk) 23:59, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak Keep I don't think the prospect of the vessel remaining a stub for a long time is a good enough reason to delete or redirect. Many, many ship related articles have been stubs for months or even years before being expanded.--White Shadows ^{Let’s Talk} 01:54, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • But what if there doesn't appear to be anything with which to expand it, nor any prospect of anything in the future? A redirect would leave the possibility of an article being created IF somehow something does come up someday, but right now no one seems to be able to find anything to show that this vessel is notable in a meaningful sense. A loose noose (talk) 02:08, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• This is of course true, but I'm fearful of any precedents that may be set if we delete or redirect an article simply because it is a stub.--White Shadows ^{Let’s Talk} 02:25, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• To be clear, I'm not advocating deleting the article because it's a stub. I'm saying it ought to be deleted/redirected because it will permanently be a stub, because there is no significant coverage in reliable sources that we can use to develop anything more than the handful of lines from DANFS. Put another way, the article does not pass WP:GNG. There are plenty of stubs (and indeed currently non-existent articles) on notable topics that simply haven't been improved yet because no one has gotten around to them. That is not the case here.

Failed television pilot that went to air as a one-off special, but never got the range or depth of reliable source coverage needed to clear WP:NMEDIA on that basis. This has been flagged since 2008 as needing more sources, but it doesn't have any more sources -- on a ProQuest search, the only other "coverage" I can find is straight reprints of the one source that's already here, but one source isn't enough to make this permanently notable all by itself in the absence of any other substantive coverage.

Television "series" whose status is unverifiable. As always, the mere existence of an IMDb page is not an automatic wikinotability freebie in the absence of reliable source media coverage about the show -- but this cites none of the latter, and I can't find any anywhere else either. Basically, if a television "series" is so unsourceable that a decade later it's still "unclear when or on what network it aired", then we can't keep an article about it just because it has an IMDb page. And on top of that, apparently only one episode was ever actually made, which means this is far more likely to be a failed pilot that never got picked up by anybody at all than a television series that ever actually aired anywhere. Bearcat (talk) 20:20, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The term "Performance fabrics" was probably invented by the Marketing Dept at Gore-tex, as I recall. It actually has no defined meaning, as the main editor is finding out. This concern was highlighted by the reviewer at AfC a couple of years ago, and again by me quite recently.

None of the refs support the article, and I believe the subject unsuitable for a wikipedia article. Roxy, the dog. barcus 11:39, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Technical textiles, or a new section created at that page.

*Keep. Hi, I started working on this page around two years ago, because I was unable to find a suitable definition for the term anywhere on Google, and with zero formatting skills about WikiMarkup or anything, I set about the task of creating it on my own, which has been, in hindsight, a terrible experience for me editing and using Wikipedia, in general, all of you are too patronizing and unhelpful that it's extremely difficult for beginners to learn. I've spent like a hundred hours, researching and editing the page, and the last few edits were just a desperate attempt to save the page, as is apparent from the oh-so-clumsy, aforementioned formatting, and I'm well aware of that.My frustration, I hope, is understandable.

Talking about the subject now, I, as an industry professional believe that it's encyclopedic, although I'm aware that needs some strong and reliable backing sources .More on that later though.

Final Note: The page could be renamed to Functional fabrics, or started all over again,I have sources on the page itself that could be helpful.

Also I would have appreciated these inputs from all of you a lot more, if they were given to me on time so that I could've incorporated those into the page, earlier.ughh, whateverRajiv Sharma (talk) 19:12, 14 August 2018 (UTC) sock master, sort of. -Roxy, the dog. barcus 18:25, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. The gallery of large photos, which seemed to be the major objection from !voters so far, has been deleted. Performance fabrics is a much better, much more informative, far better cited, much less choppy, much less brand-promotional article than Technical textiles, so I see no reason to redirect to it or merge the articles. I myself objected to Performance fabrics three years ago (which is why it is on my watch list), but it has come along nicely. This current article is well cited and informative. The worst that can be said of it in my opinion is that has been mainly written by a single editor [1], who is a bit of an SPA, but he did not create the article or its title, and there is no indication of brand-promotionalism.

Gore-Tex may have dreamt up the term 'performance fabrics', but it isn't unique to them. It is indeed poorly defined, but it is a term of art, which I've known since the 1980s. I remember a UK company called Courtaulds Performance Fabrics Ltd, formerly Fothergill and Harvey Ltd, which may now be the Performance Fabrics division of Courtaulds Aerospace Ltd or have been spun off as Fothergill Group. Narky Blert (talk) 14:02, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Term of art = Jargon = Nonsense!!! -Roxy, the dog. barcus 15:18, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jargon = useful technical shorthand for those involved in a trade or business ≠ nonsense. Narky Blert (talk) 19:44, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

When I worked as a chemist in the viscose industry, I used routinely to measure things like soda, cell, ballfall, and k-value (actually, k₂-value, which used an S.S.54.2 filter pack; k₁, which used an S.G.1 pack, was long obsolete), but only measured gamma-value once or twice. Gamma-value was a rarity, but everyone in the factory, including the process workers, knew what the other terms meant. Nonsense, eh? Narky Blert (talk) 20:25, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How does the use of Jargon in articles help inform our readership. Jargon should be explained, perhaps using reliable sources. Hang on, the term "Performance fabrics" shouldn't be covered in wikipedia using jargon, but reliable sources. Hang on, there aren't any to do that, as demonstrated in this article. -Roxy, the dog. barcus 07:15, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And that is exactly why 'performance fabrics', a term which our readers might come across in real life, should redirect to an article which explains what it means.

Sheesh, talk about WP:WIKILAWYERing! Narky Blert (talk) 19:51, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(I forgot to mention salt figure, which is or was a worldwide standard measurement in the viscose industry across several languages. I always asked more experienced analysts than I to measure it – the technique looked simple enough on paper, but was easy to get wrong if you didn't know what you were doing.)

Waiting for the editors who are watching these efficient deleting patterns.They will definitely come and save this page.I am hopeful and recording all discussions and your wrong doings.Expecting your reply on my recent edits .ThanksRajiv Sharma (talk) 09:41, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@RAJIVVASUDEV: Articles can be improved while they're being discussed at AfD; if removing content helps improve the article, then so be it. Instead of asking other editors to wait for you to add verified sources, perhaps it would be better for you to wait until you have all the proper reliable sources ready to go before adding the content. Anytime you add unsourced content to an article, there's always a risk that another editor will remove it; so, the way to stop that from happening is to find the sources first, get them ready and then add the relevant content to the article. Finally, you'll have a better chance of convincing others to keep this article if you focus on relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines and keep your comments focused on the article content, instead of trying to get them to focus on what you consider to be "wrong doings" committed by other editors. AfD discussions can sometimes get a little heated, but it's best to try to keep cool and focus on the matter at hand and not try to personalize things as explained in WP:GD#General advice. -- Marchjuly (talk) 10:57, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. It's an ill-defined industry buzzword and while there are fabrics which exist and which could be said to belong to this category, the term as a whole does not clearly define a set of fabrics. As a result we don't get decent RS discussing this topic and the article is a confection of original research and not encyclopedic. Some of the referenced material may be salvaged and moved to more specific articles. Alexbrn (talk) 11:28, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Request continuous and instantaneous deletion of recent edits( Users are adding ) and intentional trimming of the contents and refs(Which were valid for two years) seems unjustifiable and discouraging .This is not the only article with un-encyclopedic name and with less sources, Article deserves a fair chance of improvement. ThanksRajiv Sharma (talk) 03:51, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Suggestion one name change can save this article options from my side

• Merge seems like lot of wp:original research, Would also suggest to merge with Technical textile and also clearly describe who calls it and by whom , it rather depicts a loose marketing term and even the pictures or being used from other textile related article showing lack of anything new Shrikanthv (talk) 13:11, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep after doing some research it seems the word " performance fabrics" eventhough a colloquial word does meet wiki:notability and there is enough content available to keep this as an article by itself Shrikanthv (talk) 13:23, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The title might better as "High-performance fabrics" or "textiles" -- see high-performance plastics, for a similar concept. Anyway, here's source which demonstrates the notability of the topic -- Engineering of High-Performance Textiles. Myself, I'm quite liking the non-iron shirts which I discovered recently. There doesn't seem to be an article about those yet so I'm going to make a start... Andrew D. (talk) 20:36, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, that source does not support this article, as it is about textiles, not fabrics, a vast difference. -Roxy, the dog. barcus 07:55, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Performance textiles are used to make performance fabrics. This is not a vast difference; it's closely related. The source covers this relationship, "Engineering of High-Performance Textiles discusses the fiber-to-fabric engineering of ... before presenting the engineering fabrics and architectures needed for ... Properties covered include moisture absorption, pilling resistant knitwear, fire retardant fabrics, camouflage fabrics, insect repellent fabrics, filtration, and many more. ..." Q.E.D. Andrew D. (talk) 10:05, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Performance textiles are used to make performance fabrics." This is abject nonsense - what is the rest of the source like? -Roxy, the dog. barcus 10:52, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have refrained from removing much of the extant article for non reliable sourcing while this discussion is continuing. I am also curious as to who was the original contributor of this article, as the wikipedia software seems to think it was User:Themessengerofknowledge who created it, having issued a notification to them whenm I nominated this for deletion. I had believed that Rajiv Sharma originally wrote it, according to his user talk page. Do you guys have any explanation? -Roxy, the dog. barcus 07:55, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, fabrics and textiles are one and the same.You can find various resources that could help you with understanding that.One more thing, You should limit the use of the word nonsense, as it's highly condescending and, even downright degradingWP:WIKILAWYERing!. Also, this forum does not serve to satiate your personal "curiosities". As for the page creation mess-up, I am confused too.

ThanksRajiv Sharma (talk) 18:53, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So, did you create the page, or the messenger? That's an easy question for you not to avoid.

Also anybody who thinks that Fabrics and Textiles are the same thing ought to take some sort of textile technology course, as it is nonsense to say that. good grief. -Roxy, the dog. barcus 07:38, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Roxy, the dog. There is no question of avoiding , History is there and software is also there.

@ Fabrics_ Everybody can understand that you do not own that course,For your information there is only one article which defines both i.e. Textiles and for fabrics the message is like Fabric" redirects here. For other uses, see Fabric (disambiguation) and Textile (disambiguation). on Wikipedia.ThanksRajiv Sharma (talk) 14:43, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment As there seems to be some confusion about the words, let's check the OED:

textile n. A woven fabric; any kind of cloth.

fabric n. A manufactured material; now only a ‘textile fabric’, a woven stuff.

So, they have come to mean much the same thing. The source Engineering of High-Performance Textiles is therefore quite valid and, as it clearly covers fabrics specifically, we're good. Andrew D. (talk) 19:14, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge with Technical textiles. While most of the sources in the article are crappy buzzwordy marketing style articles, there are a few papers in there that discuss functional/technical fabric that could be useful in Technical textiles. – FenixFeather ^{(talk)(Contribs)} 00:11, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• comment. I think it is incumbent on me to point out a few things now that the sockpuppetry is over. I was confused at first and thought that he was a student, parroting badly stuff from his textiles lectures, as what he writes appear to be lecture notes in between unconnected, unenglish babble. (WP:CIR applies to competence in language too.

As I write, the ivote is divided as follows - keep 4, merge to TT 4 and Delete 2. I have not changed my mind that the article should be deleted due to a lack of any meaning that can be assigned to the term "Performance fabric." Note that the term is used by Marketing departments rather than technical ones, and we all should know how they work. (They will say anything at all to sell their product, truth, honesty and particularly reality do not get in their way) The article is more or less in a similar state to it was when I nominated it - the stupid huge gallery of pics was added after in a strange attempt to improve the piece. I would be happy to start again without the distraction of the sockpuppet if that would help provide a clearer result. -Roxy, the dog. wooF 13:58, 1 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This article is a violation of WP:NOT, specifically WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE. To provide encyclopedic value, data should be put in context with explanations referenced to independent sources. This article un-critically regurgitates the daily press releases of the pro-Russian and pro-Ukrainian forces, and does not provide any encyclopedic value. An RFC has not found any way to improve the article, and I doubt there is any way to have a day-by-day timeline that would be encyclopedic in nature. power~enwiki (π, ν) 16:44, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The article is essentially a collection of daily press briefings by the Ukranian and LNR/DNR sides (the reliability of either side being rather poor). The conflict is not covered by SECONDARY WP:RS at anything close to the the level of detail present in the article. This perhaps belongs in WikiSource or something similar - we are essentially hosting a collation of WP:PRIMARY accounts (the daily press releases). There are also NPOV issues in the presentation. In terms of policy rationale for deletion - this is a WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTSTAT fail.Icewhiz (talk) 16:58, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. There is active warfare in Donbass, as a matter of fact. This is a well sourced WP:LIST. The criteria for inclusion are obvious. Many sources are secondary and qualify as RS. Some others (such as that one) are indeed primary and hardly reliable. They should be probably removed. I agree: these events should be summarized more briefly, but this is a matter of fixing content. Not a reason for deletion. My very best wishes (talk) 17:10, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The RfC discussion is far from over, so hardly any "way to improve the article" could have been found (or not) yet. The timeline, as the proposer acknowledges, is based almost exclusively upon daily military reports from both sides involved in the conflict, therefore this is not a case of WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE, since the narrative mirrors sources which provide concise information (weaponry, locations, number of ceasefire violations and casualties). Wikipedia policy is aimed to "statistics that lack context or explanation", as you can see at WP:DISCRIMINATE. Sources don`t need to be "independent"; see WP:BIASED, where it reads "...reliable sources are not required to be neutral, unbiased, or objective. Sometimes non-neutral sources are the best possible sources for supporting information about the different viewpoints held on a subject." Counterbalance is the best way to achieve neutrality in some cases, it has been already discussed at the RfC.---Darius (talk) 17:31, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Shockingly did not come up in my searches but i'm not sure how much a nomination on it's own really means for an article, particularly in the absence of...anything else? CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 17:09, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It does mean they pass criterion 8 of WP:BAND, although like you, I would like to see something more to be able to add to the prose. Christian rock isn't my area and I wouldn't really know where to look for more reliable sources - I'm hoping other editors with more expertise in this area can help. Richard3120 (talk) 18:23, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a tough one. Much of their press was early in their career in the 1990s, and there's little of that available online. For example, I can't find good data on which Dove Awards they were nominated for back then. Here's a recent interview: [3]. - Foetusized (talk) 18:36, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to lean toward the deletionist side obviously so i'm not one to think of keeping stuff just on the basis of being nominated for many/any thing(s) when there is no other coverage. I did check newspapers (I have a newspapers.com subscription) and found nothing worthwhile there either. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 20:02, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Easily passes WP:MUSICBIO and specifically Criterias 2 "Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart" (one of their songs charted 29 on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs [4]- the nom's claim this band didn't chart was incorrect), 5 "Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels" which even the nom admits and 8 "Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury, Choice or Grammis award."

When I came to this page from a request for page protection, it had been nominated for speedy as "an article about a living person that is entirely negative in tone and unsourced, where there is no neutral version in the history to revert to." That is not exactly an accurate description of the article. However, as I investigated it I began to believe this is a hoax. The article was created in 2011. this version, soon after creation, lists two sources. The one from NarcoSphere is a dead link. The one from Dallas Morning News is still accessible, but does not mention a gang by the name of Siete Viejo. With this edit in 2012 MauricioMoniko22 removed the reference list and expanded the article, citing no sources. This is the only article MauricioMoniko22 has ever edited. Since then there's been a substantial amount of IP editing, much of which appears to be vandalism. My original inclination was to revert back to the version before MauricioMoniko22's 2012 edit, as sources were listed, but since the sources don't actually appear to verify the content I did some searching and outside of Wikipedia and its mirrors, I can find no indication this gang exists. I've left the article courtesy blanked, and I'll semi-protect it to prevent vandalism over the course of the AFD. I want other editors to help confirm my suspicions that this is a hoax. ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 15:52, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• delete as either an unsourced negative blp(G10), assuming they are real people, or as a hoax/vandalism(G3), assuming they are not, or as no assertion of significance(A7) assuming they are real and that was not a wholly unsourced negative blp. Not sure why it did not go as G10, but it's been here a while, so a few more days won't matter-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 16:16, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Assuming none of the above are true, then delete as just not notable.-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 16:18, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dlohcierekim I did not delete it as G10 because it was not wholly unsourced - back in 2011 and 2012 there were 2 sources cited. Also, it's not strictly a BLP, although it doesn't have to be to bring up BLP concerns. Now, when I tried to verify information in the article using the sources, it failed verification; but G10 was still inappropriate IMO. ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 16:22, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Shouldn't have been blanked (nowhere close to meeting WP:CBLANK). I don't know if it is a hoax. However, there are no sources (well - the blanked version has two links - that don't mention the name of this supposed organization, the article at creation cited sources don't seem to mention this supposed organization either) - so it fails WP:V. In my BEFORE for more sources - I was not really able to find any reliable non-wiki clone with info on this gang on-line (It does seem that Siete Viejo is a neighborhood, perhaps a ghetto of sorts, in Laredo, Texas). We typically require national level coverage for WP:NCRIME - so even if this exists, it doesn't come close to the required level of coverage for notability.Icewhiz (talk) 06:24, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• @BabbaQ: You can look at the past versions in the page history-- they are all still there-- and should in case there is a salvageable version that has been missed. I will unblank the thing though as that was blanked automatically by Twinkle.. "Keep for now" is an oxymoron.

• Keep: Guys, I agree the article is pretty bad but ELSA is a real thing. Actually it is a pretty big thing just have a look for instance here on their website: ^[1]. For instance, as a former law student from The Netherlands and former ELSA-member I can confirm that in all or nearly all law faculties in the Netherlands there is a local ELSA branch, and that most European countries have a similar situation. This can be verified easily for instance through the websites of ELSA the Netherlands ^[2] and ELSA Germany ^[3]. To be honest, it is not very difficult to find out the reality and relevance of ELSA. It also sends delegations to all kinds of United Nations bodies ^[4]. Hope this helps. Vunzmstr (talk) 13:31, 4 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

To meet the notability guidelines there, an actor must have "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." While his role in Insatiable seems to qualify (as his character is mentioned in most of the episode summaries), his work in the other productions does not. The role in Realityhigh does not seem to be a starring role, as none of the sources I've checked mention it. (Our article is rather skimpy.) His role in Chance does not merit mention in the article, despite listing 10 main roles and 6 recurring roles.

News searches in Latin alphabet turn up a number of articles mentioning him as having been shortlisted for an Arabic literature prixe him for a prize, but no WP:SIGCOV in English language media.

  • There is nothing in our notability or sourcing requirements that sources be in English or in European languages. There's a tendency for that to happen anyway because those are the languages most of our editors know best, but that's a bug, not a feature; see Wikipedia:Systemic bias. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:56, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I think shortlisting for the International Prize for Arabic Fiction (an honor that comes with a $10K prize) is enough for WP:AUTHOR 4(c) and that his other published books, although seemingly not enough for notability themselves, save this from BIO1E.

I'm not at all certain about that rationale. It's a lot of money, and they've been giving the prize for over a decade. Almost all of the authors are bluelinked, and almost all of the author pages are mere stubs, with a smidgen of PRIMARY sourcing. Do Arabic novelists lack fans? Is the committee deliberately choosing writers that no one reads? I really don't understand all of those pages just sitting there with an unsourced sentence or two.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:22, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep His name in Arabic is وليد الشرفا. In addition to the IPAF nomination, for a book that was widely (and favorably) reviewed in Arabic-language RS [9] [10][11] [12] [13][14][15] and earned him several interviews [16] [17], his work is discussed at length in this reliable source, a book of Arabic-language literary studies written by Ali Hassan Kharaja, a Ph. D. in Arabic Literature. I believe this constitutes significant critical attention per AUTHOR 4(c).

I also found a few reviews of his academic books [18] [19], and a news snippet [20]. FourViolas (talk) 22:54, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I have huge doubts about reliability about these sources (except telangana today). The reviews seems to be paid reviews. In any case, they are reviews by websites that would cover most of the films released recently. None of the critics who gave review are "nationally known critics", they arent even known as critics. That was the first criteria. The film fails rest of the criteria as well. —usernamekiran(talk) 13:06, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: there are sources, but they are not WP:RS. —usernamekiran(talk) 23:10, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comments: The "plenty of sources" are two on the article. Three but IMDb was used as a reference (moved to "External links"). "Makers of 2016 The End release trailer of the comedy film" (International Business Times) was from Oct 6, 2016 and is dubious. This is a BLP related article so the usual; "The state of references on the article does not matter as long as there are sources out there" would be at odds with BLP policies and guidelines with only "Critic Review of 2016 The End" (Times Of India). I would think someone would dig out a HEY! instead of just posting them on the discussion considering the current poor BLP sourcing. If Telanganatoday.com, livehindustan.com (needs translating), and Dekh News (I could not bring up) are reliable sources (I am not familiar with any but the Times) then there are ample sources. The movie was a flop, with one review giving 2 1/2 stars and the rest either a bad review or 1 star out of five. The movie was a year over the production timeline so 2016 The End (2017) would seem more appropriate. If kept it would be interesting (if possible) to include the reasoning for the delayed production time in the article, so it doesn't seem like a missed prophesy (or missed doomsday) movie, but that is a content issue. Otr500 (talk) 00:47, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment as a film article rather than a BLP it passes the first criteria of WP:NFILM as a widely released film having full independent reviews by nationally known critics (meaning published in national newspapers) such as The Times of India and Telangana Today even if the other reviews are disregarded which is not established that they are definitely unreliable, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 12:40, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  Telangana Today is not a national newspaper. Its a state-wide newspaper. —usernamekiran(talk) 08:17, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reply: I don't disagree that it passes WP:NFILM. I "assume" there are likely even more sources "out there" and the reason I haven't argued delete. I would point out that with 10 names listed like 22 times on the article (somewhat overkill on a "Stub-class" with triple repeated blue links) someone else will likely read this, and even if it survives this AFD, it may likely be resubmitted. BLP articles, or those related that mentions a living person, according to policies and guidelines, "must" be held to a higher standard. We generally don't just try to take one "rule" and forget the others. and it really doesn't matter if the material is "negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable". Anyone that has the right resources might want to consider that and possibly provide additional sourcing. At any rate: Have a nice day, Otr500 (talk) 14:17, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The sources I could find were mostly tabloid type, or non-reliable at best (exluding times of India). Thats why i had to take it to AfD. —usernamekiran(talk) 17:34, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: My opinion will not count "if" this is just a headcount. The rationale for a !vote is: One reference and a trailer release does not provide evidence of clear notability. We cannot override other policies and guidelines (especially BLP related) with "as a film article rather than a BLP" to squeeze in notability by exception. I could not find anything else substantial on the movie. Otr500 (talk) 14:56, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment There are no BLP concerns with this film article and there are 2 reliable sources independent reviews and state-level press counts for WP:GNG especially the size of Indian states, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 20:31, 4 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep As noted in a previous AfD, amateur status has no bearing on football notability. Appears to meet WP:GNG: [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] (I don't read Dutch, but there are more sources available than just the ones posted here) SportingFlyer talk 11:25, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Source 1,2 and 6 are regional, source 3 and 4 are about clubs losing from this team. Source 5 might be usable. » Shadowowl | talk 17:31, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing wrong with regional sources. SportingFlyer talk 02:05, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Club plays in the fourth tier of Dutch football and we have articles on all other clubs at this level. Number 57 14:14, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment – Regional press sources are awesome for notability plus there are plenty of other sources just as well! In this particular case I happen to have written the article on the newspaper a while ago, because of its relative importance during most of the years it covered HSV De Zuidvogels. The Zuidvogels entry clearly completes and enriches Wikipedia and should stay because of WP:GNG and WP:NEXIST. I would be able to expand but am very busy at present. Otherwise after the AfD. gidonb (talk) 14:19, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I expanded and referenced anyway. More importantly, I shorted the name per WP:COMMONNAME to Zuidvogels which increased the number of sources by a lot (see below) from a wide variety of media. To the nomimator I recommend doing much better research WP:BEFORE AfDing. Please check Delpher before nominating Dutch subjects and check the name before nominating any article! gidonb (talk) 02:38, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced list with original research. An article on this topic was previously deleted in 2010. The previous nomination for this article was withdrawn solely because a category exists for this group, but that has nothing to do with the encyclopedicity of this article. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:02, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep - it's true this is missing references, but this is a list and appears to be a meaningful distinction of the characters referenced. - Scarpy (talk) 19:31, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Neutral Whatever the outcome of this discussion, it is meaningfully tied to the category, so whatever outcome happens here should be mirrored there. Also: this seems like an unusual definition, though there has been non-WP coverage of it (though not entirely reliable?), including the blog of an interior landscaping company, the the blog of a specialty toy company, and this list from Comic Book Resources.
