None of that has anything whatsoever to do with Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. Politicians get articles on here by holding office, not by just running for it — and otherwise they need to have already qualified for an article for some other reason independently of having been a candidate per se. But none of what you pointed out constitutes grounds for a Wikipedia article at all. We don't keep poorly sourced articles about people just to highlight how "remarkable" somebody thinks their record of accomplishment must be — reliable sourcing has to tell us that their record of accomplishment satisfies a Wikipedia inclusion criterion, but nothing here does. Bearcat (talk) 00:11, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. To me it seems like @Activist:'s premise is based off of a hypothetical that he is elected in November and then we won't have an article for him since it would have been deleted assuming the AFD goes through. But in truth the subject doesn't fit the criteria for the article UNLESS he is elected in the first place. – JocularJellyfish TalkContribs 01:07, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
And I disagree. His combined substantial accomplishments in global business and philanthropy merit an article, and his teaching at Stanford GSB adds to that, entirely exclusive of his small chance of success in current electoral politics. Activist (talk) 08:12, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Activist: I don't think he meets WP:ACADEMIC simply by being a lecturer. – JocularJellyfish TalkContribs 13:38, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
And where's the reliable sourcing (which means media coverage about it, not primary source verification in self-published content produced by the organizations he was involved with) to demonstrate that any of that prior work satisfies a Wikipedia notability criterion?

Oh, it's legitimately a cryptocurrency. It exists, it has a customer base. But, it is not notable. Vermont | reply here 22:10, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This article is not being nominated for deletion because it is malicious. I understand that you may feel frustrated that it might be deleted, but please realize that Wikipedia is not a place to have every and any piece of verifiable information. We are an encyclopedia, and EBitcoin simply isn't notable enough to be included on it. Thank you for your donation, but it will not bend guidelines and policies. It's not malicious, but it's not notable. Vermont | reply here 22:17, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I donated a lot of money to Wikipedia and I feel a bit shocked of that I read here Strike this, please. It makes it sound a little too much like you're trying to bribe us. I know this is frustrating, and that's probably not your intention, but that is how I think people will read it, and... honestly, it makes me a little uncomfortable. -- Thanks, Alfie. talk to me | contribs 22:20, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Question Thanks for your answer. Yes it is frustrated cause yes I am a wiki helper and yes I spent many times on that wiki page and finally removed most of informations I written. This currency is legit and exists since half a year. Community is important and it's increasing each day. This currency is notable and many publications have been done (this one from a famous crypto influencer : https://www.cryptocriterion.com/ebtc-nakamotos-vision/ ). Please tell me what I have to remove in this wiki page to be published ? Thank you very much — Preceding unsigned comment added by JRC21 (talkcontribs) 22:41, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If the subject of the article is not notable, there is nothing you can do to the article to make it notable. Also "cryptocriterion" is not established as a reliable source, and the egregiously promotional tone of the article makes me more convinced this is another scamcoin (100% premine is enough of a tell anyway, to be honest). Also recommending salting in addition to my original delete vote. Hrodvarsson (talk) 23:39, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Before isn't returning enough to suggest notability and the refs in the article are very weak. The article reads like the bio of a respected but routine sculptor. There is currently an AfD about a piece of his work at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sutton Hoo Helmet (sculpture) Szzuk (talk) 22:16, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The references are weak, what point am i proving? Szzuk (talk) 22:54, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Articles about artworks are rarely kept if their creator has no article, as above, ideally this AfD would have followed the other one, but as they are happening concurrently I would urge Usernameunique to find some references for this royal connection. The additional references are probably necessary. Prince of Thieves (talk) 23:06, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The salient point about notability is whether the references exist, not whether they are all used in the article. Otherwise, to take as example a page that Szzuk created, Alyn Waters would be in serious trouble. Prince of Thieves, here are some royal references: 1, 2, 3, 4. And some more references: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Usernameunique (talkcontribs) 23:43, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for those. I will point out a few things, first I doubt Alyn Waters would survive AfD undeleted. Second, you can't assume people will know of sources they can't find, not everyone can pierce the ProQuest paywall. As I said before, I think the references are weak but just sufficient to show notability, and I am sticking with that for now. Prince of Thieves (talk) 00:08, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • You added 16 unreliable sources to your new sutton hoo helmet sculpture page. On the 8th of January 2018 you added all but one of the references to this article and they too are unreliable sources. See WP:RS for what constitutes a reliable source. Szzuk (talk) 20:36, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Because the author of the page is a paid consultancy company - axle arts. The piece is little more than a paid for advert for the exhibition, hardly independent. Szzuk (talk) 22:23, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article is about an exhibition at Bath Contemporary, which is connected to Axle Arts; but where do you get the idea that the author of the article is itself Axle Arts? --Usernameunique (talk) 22:40, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Her name isn't on the page you linked me to - but a link to axle arts is. The magazine clearly states they take editorial submissions. Szzuk (talk) 22:54, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Her name is clearly there. (see below). The editorial submissions are clearly marked and this isn't one. Prince of Thieves (talk) 23:03, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
<span class="cb-hide" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><meta itemprop="name" content="Jessica Hope"></span><meta itemprop="headline" content="His implacable gaze: Sculptor Rick Kirby at Bath Contemporary">
  • The meta data means she uploaded it to her website, her name isn't on the article and there is no copyright claim. It appears this is the best reference? And it is disputed. Szzuk (talk) 23:14, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • This meta-data is specifically that attached to the author, not the uploader which is separate, and a different person. Copyright is asserted, to the Magazine and MC Publishing Limited (publisher of the magazine), which is consistent with an article written by a inhouse staff member. I am not in the best position to argue the other references, since a substantial number are paywalled and I can't access them. But I am happy to debate the ones I can access. Prince of Thieves (talk) 23:29, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Szzuk, to be fair, you are the only one who has disputed it, and most of what you have said about it is incorrect. First, you said the author is Axle Arts; this is demonstrably false. Second, you suggested that the article is an editorial submission; this is demonstrably false. Third, you suggested that the author uploaded the article "to her website," which trivializes Bath Magazine (e.g., we wouldn't call nytimes.com "Eric Lichtblau's website"). Also, saying "It appears this is the best reference?" ignores Prince of Thieves's statement that this example is "just picking one source at random". --Usernameunique (talk) 23:35, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reading this article, it seems it is a rather promotion article in tone. #2 and #3 of the 3 sources are dead links and #1 source is a general source with little to no reference (at least easily accessible).

Its perhaps best selling sentence is "Together under the name King of Beats, they released several notable music projects including the record “Burn,” which won the duo a Grammy nomination for Record of the Year in 1992."

Unreferenced article, with some advertorialized undertones, about a band with no genuinely strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC as it stands in 2018. While there was once a time when having one independently notable member who qualified for his own WP:BLP was enough to pass #6, that's since been bumped up to two -- and even the one independently notable member gets over on his work as a radio broadcaster, not his work as a musician. Nothing else here really passes any other bulletpoint in NMUSIC, and on a ProQuest search I can't find very strong evidence of a WP:GNG pass -- outside of a bit of purely local coverage in the Guelph-Kitchener-Waterloo triangle itself (but not enough of that to really mount a claim that they would pass NMUSIC #7), all I get otherwise is glancing namechecks of their existence in WP:ROUTINE concert calendars and completely irrelevant accidental text matches in articles about The Honeymooners. A redirect to Craig Norris would also be acceptable, if desired, but nothing here satisfies NMUSIC as it now stands. Bearcat (talk) 21:26, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Coverage appears mostly to be about his business, which was found to be non-notable at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Record360. Article is also promotional in tone.

Independent reliable sources are nonexistent. The main source here is a blogspot post by Danny Samarkand. Taetea Group describes their factory on their website, and the Taetea Group seems to exist. It seems to be one of the state-run tea exporters, but how large it is or how significant it is is only a guess.

WP:NPOL - aspiring politician who has never held public office. Non-political achievements don't meet GNG.

There are four articles referenced on the page. Two are WP:ROUTINE coverage of her leadership bid, and one is a lifestyle-section interview with her about her family (which has nothing to do with either her politics or activism). Only one of the four could maybe pass the bar as a useful reference. How is that a "sheer number [...] beyond a reasonable doubt"? Madg2011 (talk) 16:04, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I would have thought as a leading figure in Ontario as a pro-life organizer and educational reform activist she would had her own article before the leadership for leader of the official opposition. This I would think puts things over the top in my mind even further. Your point on sources on this page is well taken, I see only four at this time as some were removed; I will do some research and flesh out this article with more sourcing and sourced material, which shouldn't be hard for such a prominent figure in the current political landscape. Long story short, here's a person who meet eligibility via notability. Outback the koala (talk) 06:22, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Every organizer or activist for a political cause doesn't get an automatic notability freebie either. Outside of the leadership campaign itself, I find no evidence of any significant coverage about her that would have gotten her over WP:GNG for her activism — I get a few glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage of other things, but no sources that would have been enough to get her an article for being a pro-life organizer or education reform activist per se. Bearcat (talk) 18:28, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also, Wikipedia is not about what may happen... it is about what has happened.

If she does end up as leader of the party and/or Premier of Ontario — I strongly doubt that she'll achieve either of those things, but after Trump I've learned to never say never anymore — then she'll obviously get an article when that happens.

You can google my name and see news articles highlighting activist/advocacy. It doesn't make me significant enough for a wikipedia page.

We do not keep an article about every single person who can say that some media coverage of them exists — if that were enough in and of itself, we would have to keep an article about every fire and police chief in existence, every smalltown municipal councillor and school board trustee in existence, every high school athlete in existence, every radio personality in existence, my mother's neighbour who got into the papers for finding a pig in her front yard a few years ago, and on and so forth. Coverage has to do more than just reference her — it has to be about her accomplishing something that passes a Wikipedia inclusion standard, and makes her more than just a WP:BLP1E. Bearcat (talk) 23:37, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This is the most nonsensical argument I have ever read on Wikipedia to date! If I found a pig in my yard, you know the first thing I would do, and you know I would, is rush to make myself a Wikipedia page. And the pig incident would make up the bulk(at least three paragraphs). It's basic logic! I would very much consider that a notable and newsworthy event in my life, including a picture in the Christmas cards. Maybe I'd name him Reg, in honour of the Star Trek character.

Wikipedia's inclusion standard for politicians is holding office, not running for it. We don't exempt an aspiring candidate from that standard just because "media coverage exists", because media coverage always exists for all candidates in all political races. But unless they either (a) win, or (b) were already notable enough for an article for other reasons anyway, that coverage just makes them a WP:BLP1E. Which is why the pig lady is not an unfair comparison: the basis for Wikipedia having an article about her would be "but media coverage of her exists", and the reasoning being used to argue that Granic should be exempted from having to pass NPOL by winning the leadership first is "but media coverage of her exists". There are lots of people for whom some kind of media coverage does exist, but a reason why they would qualify to keep an encyclopedia article on the basis of that coverage does not — and being an as yet non-winning candidate for political office, who has no preexisting notability for any other reason, is one of those cases. Bearcat (talk) 14:59, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Kevin O'Leary ran one time for leadership of the federal Conservative party and like this woman had preexisting notability from before the race. I fail to see the distinction your making because media does not extensively cover a subject that is not notable, at least not normally since they are businesses looking to make money. BPL1E really does not apply to this situation because of preexisting notability; I believe the fact that this woman meets Two guidelines for inclusion, not just one, should be taken into consideration in combination, otherwise we are taking a very flat view of articles throughout the project. Many blp pages are dynamic, as are people irl, we see this often on minor actors and actresses pages during deletion discussions, where a verity of factors come into play, and rightly so in my opinion. There is so much content, it's too much to get through, but what is like to see is more effort to help improve this page, rather than knee jerk reaction to deleting a notable page. It does NOT in any way improve the encyclopedia to delete notable content that simply needs a little more work. It's better to build than destroy. Outback the koala (talk) 17:36, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Kevin O'Leary was already the subject of substantive and ongoing coverage in his TV career prior to running for the leadership — he does not have an article because he ran for Conservative leader and lost, but rather he already had an article for his TV career before he ever ran for leader of anything. It's not even a question of having to retroactively evaluate whether O'Leary would have qualified for an article before the leadership campaign or not — the article already existed ten years before he ever ran for the leadership of any political party at all. Nobody has been able to show any evidence that this woman was already receiving any substantive coverage for her activism work prior to running for the leadership, however. That's the difference: O'Leary already had preexisting notability for other things before running for the leadership, while Granic Allen has not been properly sourced as being able to claim the same.

My responses:
  • If people want to learn about her, they can Google her or look on other sites. Public interest can be part of a Keep argument, but it doesn't overrule policy.
  • The WP:POLITICIAN clause that you cite requires the subject to be "written about, in depth, independently in multiple news feature articles, by journalists." Not the case for Granic Allen.
  • Factual inaccuracy is a reason to improve an article, not to delete it. The discussion here is asking whether she, as a person, passes WP notability standards, not how good the article is.
  • Notability is permanent. "She is notable until March 10" isn't a good argument.
Madg2011 (talk) 23:06, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
4truth4: yet again, "keep for the duration of the race and then delete if she loses" is not a thing Wikipedia does. If a person was not already notable enough for a Wikipedia article before she became a candidate, then she has to win the race, not just run in it, to get an article for being in the race. Wikipedia is WP:NOTNEWS — our role is to keep articles about topics that people will still be looking for ten years from now, not to keep an article about every single person who happens to show up in the current news cycle for a single event, so a person who wasn't already notable enough for an article for some other reason before the leadership race does not become notable enough for an article unless and until she wins it. Bearcat (talk) 00:54, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Current newsiness is not grounds for a Wikipedia article. If a person was not already notable enough for a Wikipedia article for some other reason before becoming a candidate, then she has to win the race, not just be a candidate in it, to become notable enough. Every candidate in any election could always claim to have received enough coverage to get into Wikipedia because of the candidacy itself, because every candidate always gets at least as much as has been shown here, but if we accepted every candidate as notable just because of the campaign coverage itself, then we're no longer an encyclopedia but a worthless directory of non-neutral campaign brochures. The coverage that a candidate receives for being a candidate itself just makes her a WP:BLP1E, not a person who has permanently passed a Wikipedia notability standard on that basis, and the size of the entry fee that a person paid to enter the race is not a notability criterion either. If she wins the leadership, she'll get an article, but just being a candidate for the leadership does not qualify her for an article in and of itself — if she wouldn't have already qualified for one before she was a candidate, then she has to win the race to become eligible for an article. Bearcat (talk) 02:45, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
As I pointed out there is a difference between being registered as a candidate and achieving recognition as a candidate. She is involved in the televised debates as one of only four candidates. I take your point that it is her campaign that is notable, not Allen herself, in which case we could rename the article "PC Leadership campaign of Tanya Granic Allen," and then move it back in two weeks when she becomes a candidate for nomination as MPP. The reason for BLP notablity guidelines is that we should not have articles about people for whom insufficient sources are available to write a fair article. That's not the case here. Incidentally, the Sarah Thomson article began the same way.[22] She was a non-notable person who became notable because the media decided to raise her profile. I don't know why they did that, but it is secondary sources that determine notability, not Wikipedia editors.
See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sarah Thomson (politician). Same arguments and ended with no consensus. Maybe she's just famous for being famous. Think we should try another AfD?
TFD (talk) 03:21, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Every candidate in a race that has debates at all will, by definition, be included in those debates. It's not proof that she's recognized as "special" — it's automatically part and parcel of being a candidate at all. And no, the candidates don't get "leadership campaign of [Candidate]" articles as spinoffs from the overall article about the leadership race in general, either — and if she doesn't win the leadership, she also doesn't get an article for being a candidate for nomination as an MPP either. If she doesn't win the leadership race, then she goes right back to having to win election as an MPP, not just being a candidate in the provincial election, to clear the inclusion bar.
And no, the reason Sarah Thomson got to keep an article wasn't "campaign coverage" — the argument was that the preexisting coverage of her in the context of being a magazine publisher was enough to deem her notable for that, not that any part of the campaign coverage made her notable because candidate per se. I still didn't agree that there was enough preexisting coverage of her in the Women's Post context, but it was Women's Post that carried the day in her notability debate, not "candidate for mayor".

No, not all candidates are invited to debates, only notable candidates are. During the Toronto mayoral election, there are routinely dozens of candidates who are never invited. You are perhaps confusing this with non-televised all candidates debates for city councillors.
I'm not confusing anything with anything. In a party leadership race, all of the candidates are invited to participate in the debates. Bearcat (talk) 04:15, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thomson's notability as an editor was on a par with Granic Allen's notability as president of Parents As First Educators. Incidentally, are you saying that Sarah Thomson is more notable as a publisher than as a former candidate for mayor? And if Allen isn't notable, why are the media covering her? TFD (talk) 04:09, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thomson had media coverage in her role with the Women's Post. Granic did not have media coverage in any noteworthy context outside of the leadership race itself, or at least none has been shown and I can't find any either. No notability claim that any person can make ever confers an automatic "notable just because she did that" freebie that exempts her from having to show that she was getting enough media coverage to pass GNG for that thing. No evidence has been shown here that her PAFE work would have gotten her an article prior to somebody erroneously thinking that candidates get articles just for being candidates. Bearcat (talk) 04:17, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
A Google News search up to the date the Thomson article was created shows that she had no coverage for her role as editor, only for being a candidate.[23] Which probably explains why there was no article about her before. Notability is not about what we consider to be important, but what reliable sources decide to pay attention to. The existence of this article does not unduly elevate Granic Allen's profile or invade her privacy. TFD (talk) 11:59, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Google News is not a reliable gauge of how much coverage a person was or wasn't getting eight to ten years ago — it's only solid for locating current coverage, not decade-old coverage. It will still find some decade-old coverage, but it misses a lot more of that than it catches. To definitively determine whether a person was getting enough coverage a decade ago to qualify for an article or not, you need to search archival databases of news coverage, not Google. And at any rate, you can't just keep scouring Wikipedia looking for evidence that WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS — first it was Kevin O'Leary, then as soon as I clarified why that comparison doesn't wash it was suddenly Sarah Thomson instead — but the existence of any other article, regardless of how similar it may seem on the surface, does not create exemptions from Wikipedia's inclusion standards for anybody else. If you really think Thomson's not notable for anything but running for mayor and losing, then you're welcome to try nominating her for deletion again on the grounds that the first discussion evaluated her notability incorrectly — but the existence of that article is irrelevant to whether this one can exist or not, because they're not equivalent situations. Bearcat (talk) 15:08, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, she does not. A candidate for office who was not already notable enough for an article before becoming a candidate does not clear notability standards on the candidacy coverage itself, because the campaign coverage itself just makes her a wP:BLP1E. Such a candidate has to win the job she's campaigning for before she "meets notability requirements". Bearcat (talk) 15:08, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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

WP:BLPFRINGE article that relies on a lot of questionable sourcing. Note that in order to have an article about a person, the sources in question should attest to the notability of the person rather than just quote them as a WP:SENSATION. I argue that the sources that we include that treat this fellow seriously are so outside the reliability matrix as to be problematic in terms of verifiability (appearing on Alex Jones's show is not something that Wikipedia considers enough to make you notable).

The previous AfD was closed as keep because his advocacy for open source intelligence was an accepted argument for his notability. However, I find that the sources which attest to this are very poor. One is a blog hosted by Wired and the other is a blog hosted by the Guardian by Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed which, as far as I can tell, was inspired by Ahmed's fascination with Steele's Amazon book reviews(?!). This does not strike me as a decent foundation for claiming any sort of notability.

In short, I think that this falls just below the WP:BLP threshold when taking into consideration how out-on-a-limb Steele's ideas are and how paltry the sourcing is for considering his notability as a person. jps (talk) 16:18, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Some editors appeared not to like the article for the fairly extreme views/claims made by Steele. In remaining neutral, I tried to keep the article as it was (only removing unsourced items). Then I did a more thorough search and there appears to be very little reliable information about him. I did a fairly involved search on Google and posted what little there was in the talk page. Nothing out there confirms his military or intelligence background, and the most reputable/large sources seem to take his word for it. I believe it was NASA's response to him that elevated his presence, and may have actually given him a degree of notability. So I'm not sure how that would affect whether there should be an article or not.MartinezMD (talk) 18:27, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You have certainly done us the service of highlighting the marginality of the subject. It is somewhat surprising that the articles was listed as a keep previously, but that was a different time for Wikipedia. Trying to come up with a reliable biography at this point strikes me as a task that is very difficult. The response that NASA gave might be relevant to a page on the conspiracy theory itself (if that were to become notable, for example), but as it is, I argue that the biography is not something that Wikipedia should be hosting. jps (talk) 20:13, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jytdog: Hello! Thank you for your reply. I would like to add a bit of background. From what I can see you don't live in the region this page primarily targets. Tueetor has a large footprint in Asia and has over 100,000 active users (according to its website at least), which should help it achieve some level of notability that does rival a lot of startups that I found on Wikipedia while researching the page. I understand that sourcing is lacking and it helps to prove my claim of notability, however, I did try to include multiple sources from high level news websites from where the company is most prominent such as the e27 articles, Vulture Media, and other sources. It should also be noted that my DealStreetAsia source should be taken seriously. From what I see, the articles on all three of the sources I primarily used were not from press releases, but from editorials composed by writers working for the media source. While one of the sources, admittedly, arouses my suspicions as being a press release, all others are from notable news sources that are popular in the region this company represents. I would like to note that Wikipedia editors living in a different region than what this page primarily serves to help inform or the subject of the article primarily targets would consider CNN or NBC as sources being of higher prevalence than DealStreetAsia, for example, when the sources listed are perfectly sufficient for the region it represents.

However, I am a new editor here on Wikipedia and want to improve in every way. For clarification, I did not write this page as a "fan" or a POI, I live all the way on the other side of the world in North Carolina, USA and wrote this article as the result of scouring the web for notable companies or topics that Wikipedia would benefit from having a page about and deciding to write my article about it. Once again, thank you ahead of time for helping out, and I hope we can work together to be constructive about this and we can build up sourcing and fix some issues rather than simply delete an article. Also, if there are any Wikipedia editors native to Japan, Singapore, or Vietnam, I welcome any input from you!

Canterbury Tail talk 15:50, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm undecided on standalone notability here myself. In some cases such works can confer notability. In this case it doesn't appear to me as clear cut (either way, though WP:NOTPAPER), but I'm not a subject area expert - this is what I saw in my BEFORE. In terms of work - re-purposing this to focus on the journal (either named for the journal, or for Travers) is fairly easy.Icewhiz (talk) 15:57, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I did find one title (though I am not sure of publisher quality and it is recent) where he appears in 49 different pages.

I'm relatively inexperienced so please forgive and correct me if I am doing anything wrong. I'm a bit surprised that you have marked the page I have just created for HMS Eglinton for deletion. There are hundreds of similar pages on wikipedia when the same name has been used for more than one ship. It's a pretty essential tool for the user who is searching for a ship name to see that it could be one of two or more ships.

This part has no independent coverage. Second part developed later is a persal essay exploring assertion. This essay is not about the claimed theory, just assertion itself. The sources used other than that first paper do not discuss "Assertion theory". duffbeerforme (talk) 12:58, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This took far too much work, and I still, after looking at several maps and the aerials, have trouble verifying this. There's yet another UN map, which shows a town SSW of Doolow; I also found a US military map in a cache at U Texas. And for the latter, I can find the physical features, and they are more or less where that map says, and the dot from geonames is close by, but, you guessed it, there's no sign of any structures that I can see, only a large empty apparently corralled off area some distance to the east. What do you say about this? I don't have a reference to say that the place is no longer there, but I don't want to say that it is there. And it's obvious that nobody looked at anything, but just took a geonames dump and stubbed an article from it. Mangoe (talk) 12:08, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It would appear that this article about a living person fails the WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, WP:NACTOR policy and guideline tests for inclusion as a Wikipedia article.

I have just declined a speedy deletion of this article. I think this may have been an error of judgement on my part. The AfD nomination will include the relevant links that may well prove that to be the case.
. The sole reference from a reliable source included in this article is from the TOI in 2013. It merely verifies that Ms Sen joined the cast of Baal Veer. It contains no mention of her participation - as I would argue is implicitly and incorrectly inferred in this article - in its 111 episodes.

This article masquerades a single newspaper survey/article as a definitive and comprehensive list of India's 'Seven Wonders'. Norcaes (talk) 10:37, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There are a couple of reasons why I think the article needs to be deleted. First, the citation for the Times of India (TOI) list, which constitutes the entire article, is the only citation on the page and fails WP:N's requirement that the subject of the article (TOI's list) receive coverage from a source other than its own website.

The basis of the article seems to rest on the notion that there are only two authoritative sources for India's 'Seven Wonders', which is untrue, and the article implies so by claiming that 'the most popular ones were those conducted by...' without giving a shred of evidence for the claim. There's also some evidence of bias here, with two articles mentioned as the 'most popular' sources and only one being covered in the article.

In sum, an article that claims to cover something as significant as India's wonders cannot be limited to a single newspaper piece. In the absence of other lists or nominations, the article needs to be deleted to avoid misrepresentation or at the very least be renamed to something like 'TOI List of India's Seven Wonders'. Whether that warrants its own Wikipedia page is another matter entirely. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Norcaes (talkcontribs) 11:06, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yazidis in Afrin[edit]

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

The article "Yazidis in Afrin region" was deleted after this AfD. The creator of the article, Gani zanyar, was notified, but did not take part in the discussion. Three days after the deletion of the article, it was recreated by the same editor with the current, slightly different, name. Since the AfD had been closed with Delete, I tagged the article for speedy deletion by criteria WP:G4. The article creator removed the tag, was reverted and warned, but removed it again without edit summary or other explanation. In the meantime AlexRover had contested the deletion "because it is an important topic which has every place in an encyclopedia". Instead of reinserting the illegally removed tag, I have decided to start this new AfD, since the first AfC was rather poorly attended.

The lede of the article is a verbatim copy from Yazidis in Syria. As far as I remember, the first now deleted version was slightly adjusted to speak at least partly specifically about the Yazidis in the Afrin region. This time the word Afrin is not even mentioned in the lede. The second part of the article, the section "Turkish military operation in Afrin", consisted originally of two more paragraphs. Those were a verbatim quotation from a news report, so I removed them as blatant WP:COPYVIO. The remaining sentence is a mention of air strikes against a number of villages. Only one of the villages mentioned seems to have a Wiki article, since "Qatme" probably is Qatma, and that article does not mention Yazidis. (It is, however, contained in the category Category:Yazidi.)

Anyways, this article does not, IMHO, have a place in Wikipedia. T*U (talk) 09:54, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable topic. The term "seahorse villa" refers not to a general type of dwelling, but rather to the name given to a single development of what are little more than fancy houseboats in Dubai. While the development has received some local press coverage (what large housing development hasn't?), it really doesn't rise to the level of encyclopedic notability.

Using your logic, then, an apartment is a glorified hut, and the Eiffel is just a giant toothpick. Please do not use Wikipedia to air your personal grievances. Also, this project and its architectural innovations have been getting attention from the international press (unlike most other large housing projects in Dubai). Anyone with even a modicum of real estate knowledge would know about the seahorse villas, so I believe the topic is notable, and shouldn't be considered "not-notable" just because you yourself lack that knowledge. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Delorean212 (talkcontribs) 19:44, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely do not delete. Notability does not depend on how common a house type is, but how innovative it is. How many Eiffel towers or Burj Khalifas are there around the world?

I already looked at it before I gave my opinion here. Extensive coverage. Binksternet (talk) 15:18, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You say "...Most of the references...", yet many are simply reporting facts about the organization, facts which were not derived from an interview with Kimball.
You say "...So we're left with a bunch of PR releases and interviews with Kimball........sources that can be used to establish notability and the lower standard of sources that can be used as citations to support facts within an article...", yet the references that report basic facts about the subject include houstonchronicle.com, washingtonpost.com, boston.com, bostonglobe.com, denverpost.com, and bostonmagazine.com, which are not PR releases and interviews with Kimball.
You say "...illegal conduct is excluded for the purposes of establishing notability...", yet that is not the basis of the notability. Notability is established without that, and with that, the subject is even more notable.
You say "...Topic fails WP:NCORP and GNG...", yet it clearly passes WP:NCORP per "... is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources..." because houstonchronicle, washingtonpost, boston, bostonglobe, denverpost, and bostonmagazine are excellent secondary sources that are reliable, and independent of the subject. In fact, the subject passes many, many of WP:NCORP's "...considered notable if..." where it only needs one. And as for passing GNG, well the subject obviously does that, and easily.

Keep - Has received independent media coverage regarding its 50 million download milestone, its implementation of the Vulcan graphics API, and its implementation of VR support (ditto).

None of the sources listed above are a sentence in length, either as a whole or regarding their mentions of PPSSPP.
RE: "[These sources] generally fall under WP:PROMO": None of the above sources serve as propaganda or advocacy pieces, they aren't opinion pieces, they don't perpetuate hearsay or rumor-mongering, the publishers have no affiliation with PPSSP and function independently, and, as a result of said independence and the lack of any blatant bias on the part of the authors, these sources do not function as advertising vehicles for PPSSPP.

WP:BLP of a person notable only as a district commissioner in a city of 160K. This is not a role that confers an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL just because she exists, but the article is not sourced well enough to pass the "who have received significant press coverage" condition for local political figures -- the only source is a mere blurb announcing her appointment as deputy district commissioner (thus not even verifying that she's actually held the office claimed by our article) and "director of grievances and pensions". Political figures at the local level need to be significantly better sourced than this, not just to be single-sourced as existing, to qualify for Wikipedia articles.

No, it really isn't difficult to delete an article after it's been deprodded — because anybody can remove a prod template at any time, and doesn't necessarily have to actually explain their action at all, deprodding only precludes reprodding and does not preclude deletion at a full AFD discussion if there are still problems. And no, the depth and breadth of sourcing shown here is not enough to demonstrate that she's a special notability case over and above most other members of what's ordinarily a non-notable class of topic. Every person in local politics could always be sourced to a couple of pieces of local coverage — to make somebody notable on this basis, it would take evidence that she was receiving more coverage than most other district commissioners in most other districts could also show.

wow     such fluff    very copyvio    many canvass    :-) The Mighty Glen (talk) 04:29, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to mention that Kuldeep Pai is a very popular musician in India and is well-known for his contributions in Hinduism and Spirituality through music.
I have cited references that are available as external links in the main article that are readily available on the internet. However, just so you know, there are media coverages and articles about him covered in various other newspapers and magazines. The printed version of newspapers bearing his articles and awards have been scanned and uploaded in his website under the 'Press' section - http://kuldeepmpai.com/press/ (Infact, the article 'Kuldeeply Passionate' mentions about Kuldeep's gold medal in Indian Music from Madras University which required the citation in the main article). I am aware that the references from his own resource are deemed invalid and hence was unable to add these as the citation in the main article. Iam trying my earnest to make this an active page in the wiki.
Kindly consider the page to be restored and make it an active wiki page.
Sharan (talk) 15:01, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,
1.Regarding awards titles and other recognition: The awards bestowed on him is true and there has been media coverage about the same as well(Yuvakala bharathi in Mylapore times). But iam unable to pull up any links from the internet. Is there an alternative to upload physical media coverage?
2.Also just curious to know, the awards in the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanjay_Subrahmanyan have been published when there are only 2 citations of the 40 awards mentioned? Why were they not deleted? There is only a warning message but the content has not been removed. Also, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahathi consists of list of awards with very less citations. So why were Kuldeep's details removed?
3.It's interesting to note that Carnatic music vocalist https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombay_Jayashri was conferred "Yuvakala Bharati" by Bharat Kalachar, Chennai, 1992, which is mentioned on the page without any citation. Kuldeep Pai too bagged the same award but the details were removed from the page. So how did the former go through?
4.The awards and titles won by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S._Sowmya too are mere mentions without any references. So why were these not deleted? Infact, D.K. Pattammal Award won by this singer was also bestowed on Kuldeep Pai. So why was this deleted from this page alone but allowed the other one? (I infact had mentioned http://www.kutcheribuzz.com/news/general/824-artistes-must-be-treated-better, http://www.indian-heritage.org/musicseason/awardsp.htm His name has been mentioned against the awards. )
5.Also regarding the TOURING info provided in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S._Sowmya- the details have been published with a warning note that it resembles a resume. So why were Kuldeep's touring details bearing similar info not published with a note? Why were the details not deleted in the former's page? Sharan (talk) 16:28, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sharan, what other articles have doesn't matter--if you want to compare, compare to a GA or an FA, not to any old random article. S._Sowmya is a terrible article and tagged as such, and I'm about to start pruning it. The article as I and others found it was promotional in tone, poorly written, and lacking reliable sources that verified the text. For instance, this, that whole "deep inclination" etc. wasn't verified in the sources; it's what a PR agent would write. This is a violation of our policy on external links, and it's typically one of the mistakes made when a promotional article is written. I have no opinion on the subject's notability, but comments like "So how did the former go through?" completely miss the point when we have millions of articles, many of which sub-standard. That it "went through" in that article doesn't mean we're going to let it through in articles that are actually looked at by Wikipedia editors with knowledge of the guidelines. Drmies (talk) 16:44, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sharan (talk) 19:00, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Drmies, thank you so much for your reply. Apologies for comparing, but new writers like me tend to read few successful articles in Wikipedia about people from similar genres before initating a new article. Since the above mentioned Carnatic music personalities are well-reputed, it was quite natural to visit their pages to get an overall view before submitting an article...Whether the article was old or new one, didn't matter to me that time.
However, after conversing with great admins like yourself, i do understand the responsibilities and the actual process that goes behind every article. And apologies if my words sounded promotional. I ensure that iam diligent with my phrases from my next article. This is my first article here in Wiki and I hope it gets a green signal very soon.
Sharan (talk) 19:00, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sharan, look at Wikipedia:Good articles/Music, for instance LiSA (Japanese musician, born 1987). I'm not saying "you should write it like that" but it should give you a good idea of what the standards are. After all, in our personal lives as well as in our writing, we should look to the good examples, not the bad ones. As for the article, I think it should stand (I say keep) since your subject seems to meet our notability guidelines. And you can help--not by writing him up nicely, but by adding references to reliable, secondary sources: newspapers, magazines, journals, and books. Look especially for articles that discuss him and his career, not just reviews of a show or an album. Good luck, Drmies (talk) 19:11, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sharan (talk) 23:00, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Drmies,thank you for your prompt response, references and direction to enhance the article. As per my earlier observation, at this stage I am unable to pull out any links from the internet for secondary references. As an alternate, am I allowed to submit scanned copies of the physical print media coverages that Kuldeep Pai has received? How do I substantiate for those resources which are available in print media form and not as an internet link page?
Henceforth, I will make sure that citations and references are adequately addressed for all future awards that Kuldeep Pai receives.
Sharan (talk) 23:00, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is no "submission"--but resources do not have to be online; this is not a requirement. See WP:CITE and WP:RS for what is acceptable and how to cite it. If you cite it properly, editors will be able to verify the accuracy of the citation, and as long as we can't read it we will assume you're not lying.

Hi Drmies, Thank you for your message. I have now mentioned citation in the article for his gold medal as per the format( as there was no online resource to substantiate the same). :Kindly check if its appropriate.

I took a hard look at the article, and essentially, everything other than what already has their own articles (like Vortigaunts, etc.) is just non-notable or primary sourced. Nothing has changed since my last nomination nearly a decade ago in terms of adding sources. No secondary sources for these creatures - it just refers to the game's strategy guides, which is fine for a fan wiki but not Wikipedia. Doesn't live up to current Wikipedia standards.

Not a huge number, admittedly; still, perhaps more mentions can be found with more digging. Centibyte(talk) 23:07, 15 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Only problem is that pretty much all of those articles are about the game's design, rather than the enemy's design or its background. The author doesn't say, for example, that the Tentacle is a cool looking and memorable enemy, just that the level is cool for featuring the Tentacle in that way. Those kind of tangential mentions don't indicate an article-worthy degree of notability, in my opinion.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 00:04, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I won't cite that!! But there is nothing written in the article that suggests that this film was a hit at the time and would have got significant coverage. As it says it was the main actor's first film so he wouldn't have been well-known at the time so not sure that there would have been much coverage. There are no box office figures nothing to back up the claims that the music was popular there are no sources from recent times that suggests that the film is viewed as a classic and worthy of being in an encyclopedia today. Dom from Paris (talk) 09:34, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm..A film can be notable irrespective of whether it is a hit.Music-sales-figures are pretty impossible to source and that's not a good piece of evidence of popularity in Bollywood-music-industry which works so differently from Hollywood.And, don't get fooled by the crappy looks of Kalyanji–Anandji, one of the most-notable music-directors in Bollywood.You can try randomly pinging any Indian pedian in good standing (Spaceman Spiff and Shyamal, two long term sysops are ones who come to mind) and they can provide some additional insights.But, you are obviously free to have a different opinion....~ Winged BladesGodric 10:21, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing to indicate that meets WP:NGEO (as a "populated place without legal recognition that meets GNG"). A quick search returns just this article, trivial mentions (like property listings), and an entry in the townlands.ie database (along with the other 61,000 townlands in the country). At best a merge/redirect to Fermoy would seem appropriate. But, given that there is no content to merge, that would result in a pointless easter egg. (FYI - This article was originally apparently intended as poor attempt at humour. But speedy-declined. Seemingly because the wrong speedy tag was used.) Personally I don't see what value this article does (or could) have to the project. Guliolopez (talk) 11:09, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A research associate is usually a low-level job in academia. Even a "senior research associate". I'm not saying it's not a respectable career, but it's not something that would make someone notable. They would work under a professor and often under others such as staff scientists. I can't even find a profile for her on the university website. Natureium (talk) 15:24, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

My PROD rationale was: comprehensively fails WP:GNG. An Oscar nom for a minor category is not enough to automatically clear notability by any stretch. No non-trivial sources located on Google (books, news) or Highbeam.

Was de-PROD'ed with the rationale that she "still meets WP:ANYBIO", which is patently not true - ANYBIO requires either one win, or multiple nominations. A search through the Oscars database here shows that Baker only has a single nomination, so she fails ANYBIO in any case. ♠PMC(talk) 22:44, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also, this could be a case of speedy deletion, as the IP Special:Contributions/2600:8805:2402:F400:5114:D44D:711C:ECBE is most likely User:Jack Gaines evading his block.

No indication of notability; the given sources either are not reliable or do not cover the company in appreciable detail (if it is a company at all; one source says it's merely a brand of Gigabyte). Prod removed by Zxcvbnm who said they'd add sources to the talk page but (so far) didn't do so. Huon (talk) 00:55, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I missed the sources in the message box at the top of the talk page, but maintain that they do not suffice to satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH or WP:GNG. They do clarify, however, that Aorus is not a company at all, meaning that the very first sentence of our article, and likely much of the rest too, is wrong.

Lots of sources; none of them useful for showing notability. Almost all are primary, those that aren't aren't reliable. In short, there is nothing here that shows this person is anything but a successful lawyer, and that isn't a reason to have an article on Wikipedia. Fails ANYBIO, and no SNG applies.

AlaskaLaw Do you represent a lawfirm or other organization? 331dot (talk) 09:44, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
{u|331dot)) I do not. Regarding notability, similar to becoming a judge, the subject has attained a pinnacle of achievement in the Alaska legal community as president of the Bar Association. This is reliably verified through secondary sources. [1] .Alaska Law 12:53, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Please offer those sources, which cannot be press releases or basic announcements. While undoubtedly important to the Alaska legal community, is President of the bar a high profile position among the general public? I live in Maine and I couldn't tell you who the President of the bar is. 331dot (talk) 16:12, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's because the media chooses to shove the office of the president down our throats at every possible opportunity, to the exclusion of who knows how many other topics, because their audiences are dumbed-down enough to accept that as valid. It's unfortunate how far the quality of the encyclopedia has declined because the community, in its never-ending quest for low-hanging fruit, has chosen to mindlessly parrot such a stance. Judging from the article creator's contributions, it's safe to call them an SPA and their contributions COI spam, because those contributions make it appear as though they're representative of the topic of law in Alaska when they aren't. However, I don't see how this differs from any other editor who skews the encyclopedia in the wrong direction by only writing about what they feel like, regardless of how unrepresentative that work is, because we lack the sort of community necessary to identify and rectify POV such as that. Since we're on the topic of law in Alaska, a rather pertinent case in point: Karen L. Loeffler and Bryan Schroder are complete and total nobodies when compared with at least a half dozen of their predecessors. From what I've seen, the only coverage Schroder has received has been in the form of press releases related to his appointment as U.S. Attorney. Please explain why it appears that one set of standards applies to Schroder while another is being applied to Gardner. Please do so in a manner which doesn't boil down to one holding a particular title and the other holding another title. To echo what's been pointed out, both would be considered statewide leadership positions within this community. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 02:46, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

{u|331dot)) According to Wikipedia, (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Wikipedia) to be notable, a Wikipedia topic must be "the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works from sources that are reliable and independent of the subject and of each other." I am not a frequent editor, and this page has been up for more than three years. This process of proposed deletion is new to me, very interesting, and generated research on my part. I have contributed several biographies of living persons in an attempt to broaden Wikipedia's coverage of notable Alaskan attorneys. The Alaskan attorneys listed on Wikipedia include similar citations to sources to the subject topic. For example, the citations to support the independent topic Rich Curtner reflect no more secondary sources than the references to the subject lawyer. I also do not know the president of the Maine Bar Association. However, the subject attorney appears notable, particularly with respect to Alaskan lawyers. He is the only lawyer to have been elected president of three different bar associations - the Alaska Chapter of the Federal Bar Association, the Alaska Bar Association, and the Alaska Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He is the first Alaska Bar president to have been born and raised in Anchorage [2]. He is the first Alaskan Lawyer to have been elected to national office in the Federal Bar Association, as Vice President of the Ninth Circuit. He is the first Alaskan lawyer to be elected chair of the Lawyer Representatives Coordinating Committee for the Ninth Circuit. He a published author in The Federal Lawyer Magazine and the Alaska Dispatch News. He has been quoted in Forbes and has other media appearances. I cite the following additional sources to support notability of this Alaskan lawyer: https://www.ktoo.org/2017/08/31/alaska-bar-programs-provide-legal-help-low-income-residents/
