Rename to Steak and Blowjob Day Meme , per SmokeyJoe in the recent DRV. In the alternative, I wouldn't be upset if it was deleted outright. There are no WP:RS which establish WP:V.
One WP:RS is Cosmopolitan, which doesn't state that it exists. The title of the article talks about Absolutely Horrible Jokes. The URL slug (which I assume is a holdover from an earlier title idea) talks about the best tweets. And the article itself only cites The Daily Beast, which is pretty low on the WP:RS totem pole.
Likewise, Huffington Post is a WP:RS for most things, but this is a short blurb in the Celebrity section, which doesn't say the holiday exists, it just says somebody is tweeting about it.
No WP:V, no article. But, it is clear that this has been making the rounds for 15 years (even if only in the Maxims and Cosmos of the world), so it does qualify as a meme, and we should talk about it in those terms. The lede (and general tone, info box, etc) of the article should also be edited to make it clear that we're not talking about the day, but about the meme. In the two sources I looked at in detail (Cosmo and HuffPo, above) both were careful to differentiate between the (non-existant) holiday and the meme. We should be equally careful. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:49, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Dictioneer (talk) 05:14, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per TonyBallioni's comments at the most recent deletion review. I was fixing the past deletion discussions template box on the article's talk page and it gave me occasion to look at the last deletion review in greater detail and I can't help but agree with TonyBallioni. This article certainly meets most of the notability standards, but that isn't the only issue to be assessed at AfD. WP:NOPAGE is clear that, given that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, some topics do not warrant a standalone article. This topic would be much more suitably covered by a sentence or perhaps even a paragraph in a broader article about BS holidays and/or by a sentence or two in the Valentine's Day article in a section about cultural perceptions of Valentine's Day. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:28, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
this clearly isn't encyclopaedic content. Then do enlighten us, because that's evidently not "clear" to many of the participants in this discussion.
The wall of text above demonstrates that this is being forced on the encyclopaedia. Does discussion = forcing? Or are you suggesting that the participants in this discussion lack free will? 142.161.81.20 (talk) 20:40, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Reyk: Surely sourcing oughtn't be the only thing considered. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:30, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
We also have this wonderful shortcut that I just discovered today WP:BADIDEA, which apparently is policy, and applies in droves here. As a side note, this might be my new favourite policy shortcut. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:48, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't like it very much either, but that alone isn't reason enough to make me !vote delete. Reyk YO! 06:08, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Does WP:IDONTLIKEIT take precedence over policy? And would you agree, then, that sourcing and verifiability is not the only thing we should be considering here? 142.161.81.20 (talk) 06:19, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it can. If everyone agrees it is a horrible subject that we don't want a page on, but can't find a policy reason to delete it, then we have a consensus to delete. That is policy. TonyBallioni (talk) 15:17, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sources are adequate, which is enough to Keep. Is sourcing really the only thing that should be considered at AfD? Because our policies beg to differ. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 21:29, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be fine with this as well. TonyBallioni (talk) 15:17, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's roughly what I had suggested, though you would probably want a fully protected redirect rather than a salted deletion. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 21:31, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have no strong objection to this. My main concern is that whatever we do, we make it clear that we're talking about a meme, and not a real holiday. We can do that by renaming this article, and some editing of the text. And keeping the listing in List_of_Internet_phenomena certainly makes sense. -- RoySmith (talk) 22:11, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't really in the same league as Festivus, which has sources in such mainstream media as CNN, Parade, ABC News, USA Today, LoHud, NY Times, NPR, Dallas News, Time, The BBC, NewsWeek and Newsday. And while I recognize that they're not much better than blogs, three sites that purport to list holidays include Festivus (Time And Date, Days Of The Year, and National Day). That's quite a step up from Cosmo and Maxim. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:14, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, I agree which is why I suggested such an article would just list Festivus (sort coverage and then a link to the full article). Though per IDONTLIKEIT, I'm not sure which I dislike more the holiday discussed in this AfD or Sinfeld :-) Hobit (talk) 20:28, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'd not really object to a merge given that (based on IAR/IDONTLIKEIT) I don't see a need for the article. With respect, you seem to be creating a caricature of the argument. The issue isn't just WP:IAR but rather WP:NOPAGE. This is a subject that could be suitably covered by a sentence or two in the Valentine's Day article. There could be a section about cultural perceptions which would discuss gendered dynamics surrounding the tradition using Steak and Blowjob Day as an example.
But I really dislike removing knowledge that is well cited as it can be useful to someone. Not liking something doesn't trump the policy WP:IINFO. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 22:37, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing stopping us having a sentence or two in the Valentine's Day article as well, discussing the gendered dynamics etc. etc. That is not a strong argument to delete this article. fish&karate 08:02, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That is not a strong argument to delete this article. What about that comment led you to believe it was a wholistic argument for the article's deletion, Fish and karate? It was merely a critique of Hobit's argument. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:45, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You are arguing for the article's deletion, 142.161.81.20, and are waving WP:IINFO and WP:NOPAGE around as reasons to do so. Don't be disingenuous. fish&karate 12:16, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Please assume good faith, Fish and karate. If you are wanting to have this discussion in good faith, you would best reply to a comment that is making a more wholistic argument in favour of the article's deletion. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:26, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Why would this lead to further consideration, given that almost no one advocating for the deletion of this article is doing so on the basis of insufficient sourcing? 142.161.81.20 (talk) 07:25, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Because those sources expanded the article further. Like I said. fish&karate 08:45, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The article having been expanded is not in itself an argument against its deletion. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:26, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Is sourcing the only issue we should be assessing? 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:35, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The only actual objection seems to be IDONTLIKEIT. And WP:NOPAGE. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:35, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Is sourcing the only issue we should be assessing? 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:35, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We could discuss your relentless badgering too if you like. Reyk YO! 06:35, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Do tell us how asking someone a singular question once is "badgering" them. And I should note that you have yet to answer the above question. 142.161.81.20 (talk) 07:04, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You keep asking the same question over and over and over and over regardless of the answers you get. That is badgering by any reasonable understanding of the term. Even the question above, which you allege I haven't answered, is just the same one you asked me earlier with slightly different phrasing and which I already did answer. If I were to provide another response, you would just ask it again with different wording. Do not contact me again, and I strongly suggest nobody else indulge this repetitive pestering. Reyk YO! 08:40, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn't address whether a standalone article is most appropriate means for Wikipedia to present the subject (see WP:NOPAGE). 142.161.81.20 (talk) 03:35, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(1995): "Similarly, there are 'gotras' among Khatris (Barsain, Bargate, Changend, Thusra, Bhander), Rajputs (Agasni, Lalhal), Thakurs and Rathis (Gharti, Sakhotru, Barjati, Kulai)." Also noted elsewhere in sources over many decades. FloridaArmy (talk) 15:29, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@FloridaArmy: what other sources? If they're from the British Raj era, they're not reliable. Your mention above is just that, ie: a mention in a list. It does not come anywhere near satisfying WP:GNG, which needs a degree of in-depth coverage. - Sitush (talk) 05:03, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Also, noting that any book which contains In Kangra the Rathi als are said to be Barjati, Kulai, Gharati, (a Khatri al in Chamba) and Sakhotru. The Rajas used to confer the janeo on Rathis in return for presents and senices, and this is why some of them still wear it.(OCR grab) is derived wholly from Horace Arthur Rose who is unreliable due to the same Raj-era problems.Winged BladesGodric 05:16, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I have no opinion on this AfD, but re: this "keep" vote. A character based on her is only there insomuch that one of the real life members of the "Bling Ring" thieves is this subject's sister, Alexis Neiers, and the film simply chose to fictionalize one of it's essential characters as having a sister who was also involved but didn't get caught. I don't find this any more notable than any other tangential character based on a real life counterpart, e.g. if a character based on a real person is shown in scenes with their high school principal, that doesn't automatically make the person's real life high school principal notable. Also, the source for this, Yahoo Entertainment, is of dubious significance. ShelbyMarion (talk) 16:45, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So where are these sources then? let's look at the ones in the article.
1 - orgs own website, not independent
2,9,10 - orgs host, not independent
3 - page of inductee, not independent, passing mention only
4 - primary, not an independent reliable source, only mentions that someone was inductee, no other mentions
5 - page of inductee, not independent, passing mention only
6 - deaddead, not an independent reliable source
7 - deaddead, not an independent reliable source
8 - dead, may be this which only has a passing mention, not an independent reliable source
11 - shop, not an independent reliable source, passing mention only

  • Except there are not. I went through every single one in Google News. And the vast majority of them are blogs. Those that are not blogs are passing mentions in stories not about her. In no way does she have the sources to meet WP:GNG. If you somehow found some that meet the level of GNG by all means share them. -DJSasso (talk) 23:34, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm guessing you would also consider Blue Shirt Banter, an SB Nation outlet, a "blog" for this particular AFD, but why is it included on men's ice hockey articles and have content partnerships with Yahoo! Sports, CBS Sports, USA Today, Comcast and the National Hockey League (NHL)?
Hmlarson (talk) 00:51, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, Blueshirt banter is a blog. It also fails WP:GEOSCOPE as it is a specific local blog. There is a difference between using it to source a fact and it being good enough to meet the requirements of meeting WP:GNG. I get it you will vote keep on any article that is a woman no matter how much they lack notability. I realize you are very keen on closing the gender gap and I do wish that could be the case. However, Wikipedia is not here to right great wrongs. We would delete a male player that was only sourced to the blueshirt banter blog as well. -DJSasso (talk) 16:01, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • NHOCKEY isn't just for professionals, it also takes into account amateurs and coaches etc. It covers all of hockey. Women's professional hockey isn't on there on purpose. It isn't that we forgot to update it, its that there simply isn't coverage for most and there is no easy bright line other than World Championships/Olympics that signify that coverage is likely to exist. In fact I believe we took most of the top players from the last few years (that didn't already meet NHOCKEY/NOLYMPICS) when this came up a few months back and went over all of them looking for sources, and pretty much all of them could not have sources found for them. -DJSasso (talk) 23:09, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Like I said, NHOCKEY is not applicable if it does not cover an article's topic. It would cover women's professionals if it was mentioned. NHOCKEY is merely a shortcut, a presumption of notability, not a definition of notability for any article. Alaney2k (talk) 00:13, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • But it does cover the the article's topic (ie women's hockey player). If they are a women's hockey player they have to play at the world championships. Don't forget women's pro players can play for their national teams. 11 players on the current US National team have played in the NWHL. What I think you really mean is you don't like where the level is at. -DJSasso (talk) 06:00, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Very regularly sports bios are deleted for being only covered in local papers. Though we usually use the wording of WP:ROUTINE when stating it as opposed to geoscope in the same manor city council members of smaller towns are deleted when they are only covered in their local media. -DJSasso (talk) 23:13, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Unlike WP:GEOSCOPE, WP:ROUTINE does apply to sports biographies, but it does not contain a prohibition on the use of local coverage to satisfy GNG. Regional/local metropolitan dailies include passing references to athletes, but they also contain significant or in-depth coverage of athletes. The former coverage is ROUTINE, but the latter is not. Cbl62 (talk) 23:21, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Except that isn't how its generally taken at Afd or we would have many articles on high school or local junior athletes who get coverage as athlete of the week etc which often includes in depth articles. It is considered routine to cover the local star athlete. Now of course that also varies with the size of the city. Its much different to have an in depth article in a Los Angeles news paper than it is in a Bangor, Maine paper. -DJSasso (talk) 23:25, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have not had the same experience at AfD. In general, significant coverage in local and regional media (i.e, coverage focusing on the person as the subject of the article) is considered at most sports AfDs that I've encountered, though admittedly there are some editors (e.g., Masem, Johnpacklambert) who seem to take a more restrictive approach toward local/regional coverage. WP:NHSPHSATH is one of the few places where we have an express limitation on use of local coverage as an exclusionary standard. It is designed to avoid precisely the onslaught of high school athlete bios that you reference. Cbl62 (talk) 03:30, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I do not believe the article's subject meets WP:N or WP:ACADEMIC. Subject is a professor with some published books/articles, but doesn't have mentions in secondary sources or meets any of the criteria in WP:ACADEMIC. I started pruning out some of the fluff from the article, so editors might want to check [11] to see how the page was before I started. There are a lot of links in the page, but most of them don't include the information supposedly cited in the article, or are dead. Even if it doesn't warrant deletion, there is heavy clean-up needed. I just don't know how much would be left if the article was properly sourced, as all WP:BLP articles should especially be. Angryapathy (talk) 17:59, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Angryapathy,

I'm not used to edit my page, but today I tried to improve it adding two bibliography sections and some academic links where my work is quoted. Really I do not know why these changes disappeared.

Question: is Professore ordinario equivalent to "Full professor", which seems to be what the current version of the page says? (It translates as "Ordinary Professor".) Or is it something higher than full professorship, such as a major chair? If it's the latter, then WP:PROF might be satisfied, but if it's the former, he needs, for example, a much higher h-index. I don't know enough about the Italian academic system. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:23, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: About it being a "major university", I looked at our page on List of universities in Italy#International rankings, and it appears to be ranked not so high. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:34, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Tryptofish, I can't guess what you mean by "full professor", or indeed by "equivalent", because I don't know where you are – in my experience, different countries apply widely different standards, and have different names for those standards, and comparison is often somewhere between hard and meaningless. I purposely linked to the Italian wp article on professorship so that people could make their own determination on this. Ordinario is the top level, above associato; emerito is grander, but means "retired", as in English. The university of Urbino is a national-level "proper" university ("Università degli studi") with about 14000 students and some 500 years of history ... why I am telling you this, you can read about it here? I'm not aware of any named professorial chair in Italy, but that could just be my ignorance; in Italian, exactly as in English, "chair" (cattedra) is synonymous with "professorship" – "he holds the chair in ..." means precisely the same as "he is the professor of ...". I've edited the page, by the way. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 00:03, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For "Full Professor", please see Academic ranks in the United States#Most common hierarchy, and note the distinction between Full and "Distinguished, Endowed or University". Then please see WP:PROF#Criteria, criterion #5. It's clear from your answer to me that Ordinario is like "Full", and it fails criterion #5. --Tryptofish (talk) 00:12, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Tryptofish, it is the highest level of university professorship in Italy. I submit that it is therefore "equivalent", at least in some sense, to the highest level of professorship in other countries such as the United States, "an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon". I note in passing, not as an argument here, that that criterion needs to be revisited to reflect a more global perspective than that of the United States, per WP:CSB. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:32, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Here would be my question, Justlettersandnumbers to try and clarify. How many Professore ordinarios are at each university? Is it just a few, or is it a large group of tenured professors? If each university has 20 or more Professore ordinarios (I apologize is that isn't the correct pluralization for Italian speakers), we would be making thousands of Wikipedia articles for all the Professore ordinarios in Italy. Angryapathy (talk) 14:47, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It's equivalent to "Professor" in the US, not equivalent to "Distinguished Professor" (and at a mid-level university). WP:PROF and WP:GNG are what apply here, as they exist now, and the page is clearly one that should be deleted. --Tryptofish (talk) 19:38, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fails to meet the notability requirements of WP:BIO. This is probably the best source, but the google cache reveals it is only a very brief interview in a specialist publication. Other than that, this is the only source providing in-depth coverage of the subject, but it is in a local newspaper which is pretty useless for demonstrating notability.

@Editor 2050: It’s not only about coverage, the subject in question also fails to pass WP:NACTOR and you must be aware that we can not have an article on each and every person appeared in a film unless he/she has played a significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions so I personally don’t think it can pass the AfC process to exist as an article anytime soon.

Article was originally at Cosmic Race and was deleted via WP:PROD in 2011 due to having no sourcing or claim to notability. In 2016 it was recreated at this new name, but with the exact same issues. There are a few sources on the game out there, e.g. an import review in Next Generation, but not enough to indicate notability, much less support the article's grandiose claim of the subject being "notorious for being one of the worst video games of all time."

No independently notable. Whatever can be mentioned about this accident can be mentioned on the articles of the notable passengers. Tvx1 16:02, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's all true, but it doesn't change the fact the accident isn't independently notable. It's just a crash of a private plane during landing in averse conditions. This literally has happened dozens of times in the history of aviation. It's not a major accident in any way and didn't not have any major impact on the airline industry. If Hill hadn't been flying and thus killing himself no-one would care about this crash of an Arkley Piper Aztec. If would be just one of many that happen throughout the years. It's not notable independent of Hill and the other passengers and therefore everything important can be covered in their articles. Of course information about the event can be mentioned on Brise's article as well.Tvx1 18:01, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • And if your uncle was a woman she'd be your aunt. The fact is that Hill was killed and there has been a lot of media and authorly interest in the accident itself because of that. At Wikipedia we call this interest 'notability', and we measure it (for want of a better word) by looking for significant coverage of the article subject in respected third-party sources. Lots of this exists for this incident, appearing in national newspapers, magazines, news organizations, and books, amongst other places. They all deal with the accident as a primary topic, therefore this topic passes WP:GNG quite easily, as others have mentioned below. You are flogging a dead horse here.

@Tvx1: This editor who (If you asked around) has a reputation as a STRONG aviation accident deletionist says Keep below. Why? It has been the established consensus that any aviation accident article where someone wikipedia notable person died is a keep. This AFD was going the same way as this one (and after barely six hours) when the nominator withdrew the nomination. Steelpillow's call for a snow is a good call. If this AFD continues, who is the editor not showing respect?...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:28, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Minor award, no independent sources. Article de-PRODded by article creator with reason "This award has become the stepping stone for the young investigator awards for mechanicians. And the recipients of this award have win other medals from engineering. People from mechanics society may concern the list of this ward. We recommend to keep this artical in Wikipedia." (On article talk page). However, this assertion is not supported by any source. Article creator also added 3 references, none of which mentions the journal. Curiously enough, the only external link present when this stub was created, a link to the journal homepage, does not even mention this reward. A Google search for "Journal of Applied Mechanics Award" gives, as far as I can see, only this article and a number of press releases of academic institutions on the occasion of one of their faculty receiving this award.

Contested Prod, however deletion rationale remains valid, namely: the player fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG.

A number of sources have been added to the article, but these are insufficient to satisfy GNG for the following reasons:

  1. vavel.com - interview of significant length, suitable in working towards GNG. Needs more though to satisfy GNG
  2. ussoccer.com - routine match reporting from primary source. Not useable for GNG
  3. ussoccer.com - routine match reporting from primary source. Not useable for GNG
  4. mexico.as.com - Article about completely different players, trivial mention of Morales at the end.
  5. ligafemenil.mx - primary source, not suitable for GNG.
  6. marca.com - routine match reporting, trivial coverage of the player scoring a goal in a single match

Redirect. I don't think it meets the "significant coverage" requirement. I found a lot of press releases and a few blog entries, but only one example of coverage in what could be called a reliable, independent source: an interview with the director on HorrorNews.net. I think it makes sense to redirect this article to Puppet Master (franchise)#Puppet Master: Axis Termination, and use the source(s) to flesh out that section. Also, if this article is redirected, won't it set a precedent for many of the others in Category:Full Moon Features films? Braincricket (talk) 20:04, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Having searched for both Adnan Faruk Hillol and Hillol, I was unable to find anything that would indicate notability, and therefore fails WP:NACTOR. The two films listed in his filmography might be possible redirection targets, but Mukhosh Manush is at PROD due to lack of notability and he's not actually mentioned in Chorabali.

Khichar is certainly a last name but we cannot repurpose the article as a set index because we seem not to have articles for anyone who bears it.

  • Your first ref (Nijjar) is not reliable per consensus (pseudohistory). The rest are also not reliable per general consensus about Raj sources etc. We also should not merge something that isn't sourced and has been tagged as such for some time. What you have to understand in particular is that, for example, people created "fictitious" caste groups for amateur ethnographers of the Raj era. Based on their own family names, they're not dealt with now because they never actually existed/were never accepted by their peers etc. They not individually notable as hoaxes either. This has all been discussed in the past. - Sitush (talk) 11:26, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Can you point to such a discussion regarding Bakhshish Singh Nijjar? I do see that other works of his (by the same Published) are cited on Wikipedia (e.g. in Punjab Province (British India)), as well as in google-scholar (though admittedly - not widely), and his stated bio (B.S. Nijjar, M.A.; Ph.D. (History); M.A. (Punjabi); M.A. MOL (Persian); Hons. (Persian, Urdu & Punjabi); is an erudite scholar and a historian of great repute. He retired as Director, Punjab State Archives & Archaeology, Patiala where he put in 21 years of distinguished service. He was also a member of Indian Historical Records Commission, and Curator, Historical Museum, North Platte, Nebraska, USA. Presently based in California, USA, he takes keen interest in historical research and writing on its various aspects. seems passable. If deemed unreliable, there are a number of other articles that should be cleaned up.Icewhiz (talk) 11:44, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm not arguing with you - it invariably ends up being pointless. He e is regularly removed from articles by other people than me (perhaps also because he was a Jat, which de facto makes him unreliable for anything to do with Jats), and in any case the page of the book that you link to is a most preposterously slim claim for notability. It is literally a name in a list. I'm pretty sure he is dead, btw - 2011 or 2012, IIRC. - Sitush (talk) 11:48, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Contested Prod, however deletion rationale remains valid, namely: the player fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG.

A number of sources have been added to the article, but these are insufficient to satisfy GNG for the following reasons:

  1. ligafemenil.mx - primary source, not suitable for GNG.
  2. es.fifa.com - a lengthy interview with the player providing a reasonable level of coverage. Not sure whether an article on a player appearing on the FIFA website essentially to promote the FIFA U-17 world cup should be considered a primary source. Either way it seems to be insufficient on its own to satisfy GNG.
  3. economiahoy.mx - a very brief interview with the player containing little in the way of content specifically about the player as her comments are concerned with her team rather than herself. Fenix down (talk) 11:47, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • This has no relevance to your claim that NFOOTY "doesn't apply" — it does apply. What you are unhappy about is the fact that only players from one league meet the 'played in a fully-professional league' criterion. You could have just said that rather than make a misleading claim about the guideline's applicability. Number 57 23:42, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Entry contains out-of-date, inaccurate and biased information. The neutrality of the article is disputed, notably the sections on recruitment of staff at East Kent College, written with an obvious bias towards that institution i.e. the line "In comparison, East Kent College have recruited at least 40 extra staff since taking over the Folkestone & Dover campuses" as this is pulled from an August 2014 Kent on Sunday article, which may have been valid at the time, but is not at all relevant now. The alumni list features people who attended during the West Kent College era, not K College era. Original author of this entry has been blocked indefinitely.

There is an existing page for 'West Kent College (2014)' - which already makes reference to the K College era within its history. The detail from both has now been merged into one entry, for context. As a comparison here, the University of Gloucestershire page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Gloucestershire) does include reference to predecessor Colleges, but these do not have their own entries e.g. Cheltenham & Gloucestershire College of HE.

  • Pray explain why I am a deletionist. And why OSE does not apply. On recent evidence, you should resign your bit. - Sitush (talk) 16:33, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please read the link I posted above. It explains all my reasons and has nothing to do with OSE (consensus over hundreds of AfDs is not OSE, incidentally). And please also explain why you think the RfC applies to tertiary colleges. "resign your bit"? How quaint, but I have no idea what you're on about. Are you saying I should resign as an admin? Because I disagree with you? How very arrogant! I wasn't aware that admins weren't allowed to express opinions at AfD. New one on me. Please point me to where it says that. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:45, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't honestly think it's unreasonable to suggest that someone who is trying to use an RfC on one group of articles as an excuse to delete another group of articles (and who claimed that saying this was invalid was "dubious") may be a deletionist. It was a statement of fact, not an insult. I would also point out that it's slightly disingenuous of you to say that I started this off!. I'd like to be able to post my opinion at AfD, as is my right, without snarky remarks from the same two or three editors who disagree with it, that's all. Voice your own opinion, fine. But don't try to claim mine is somehow invalid. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:41, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am not trying to do anything. I haven't even !voted, merely passed a comment because of your known misrepresentation of the RfC etc. I really don't care much forthe whole schools issue and rarely participate. It was your opening comment at the Drmies thread that got me involved on this occasion because once again it seemed to be a case of an admin not understanding consensus, which is worrisome wherever it may happen. - Sitush (talk) 12:14, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to point out Because extant secondary schools often have reliable sources that are concentrated in print and/or local media, a deeper search than normal is needed to attempt to find these sources. At minimum, this search should include some local print media. If a deep search is conducted, and still comes up empty, then the school article should be deleted for not meeting the GNG and Editors are not expected to prove the negative that sources do not exist, but they should make a good-faith effort to find them.; which seems to put the onus on delete !voters to do a good-faith effort to find sources.

I'll rescue this rationale with some sources, that should be enough..[21][22][23](but from one publication)

There you have sources that prove the school's existence and the facts, so it's clear the subject needs to be included in some form, either as a stand-alone article or within another article, but certainly not deleted. And citing an RFC about secondary schools at an AFD about a tertiary school is obviously not a good argument... Regards SoWhy 10:23, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Contested Prod, however deletion rationale remains valid, namely: the player fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG.

A number of sources have been added to the article, but these are insufficient to satisfy GNG for the following reasons:

  1. ligafemenil.mx - Primary source unsuitable for GNG
  2. marca.com - brief interview with the player following a specific match. Actually very little content specifically about the player, more her speaking about her team. Not significant coverage of the player herself.
  3. sipse.com - very brief interview with the player. Again little content about her, her comments are focussed more on her team and thoughts on a single upcoming match. Not significant coverage of the player herself. Fenix down (talk) 10:52, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
From the sources below, although there are several which are very brief and at least one which is simply a blog, which I would not say contributed to GNG. There are a couple of lengthy sources which I had not seen before which, when added to the more minor reporting about the player probably do in this instance equate to a GNG pass. Can't withdraw the nomination as there are other Delete votes below, but happy for the closing admin to view my opinion now as Keep. Fenix down (talk) 10:27, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Saff V. none of the sources you provided give any in depth coverage, they are more of passing mentions, the likes of which are quite common in the Iranian media. For example you said that this source is about the photograph, but it is not. It is the obituary or death notice of the photographer. An obituary of the photographer is not enough to make the photograph a noticeable subject. Your second source [28] is also a notice that the memorial service of the photographer will be held, it is not about the photograph. The other two sources are the same thing (i.e they have identical text) and they are talking about what happened on that day, not about the photograph. Your google search is also flawed, for example it lists The Mahabharata Secret By Christopher C Doyle, but searching inside the novel we find nothing mentioned about the picture. SO your argument is null and void. Elektricity (talk) 08:46, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the AfD closure was appropriate as no consensus, I don't think admins should be strong-armed into reopening because someone didn't like the result. The article can be nominated for another AfD after some time passes. At that point it would be more clear if it has sustained notability (and has additional sources) or it does not and it would be much easier to convince others (at least me) that it fails our guidelines and should be deleted. Ifnord (talk) 01:39, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Ifnord the book called "the tumultuous photo" is not a reliable sources, as it is a throwaway propaganda book/pamphlet. This is the primary reason that all inclusions in wikipedia are subject to thier mention in WP:RS, as the book does not pass, it cannot be included, and without this book, there is no other source. Elektricity (talk) 09:17, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Mhhossein both news items are a) from propaganda sources and b) they are actually talking about the photographer (he had passed away recently) and they mention this picture as one of his prominent works. Both news outlets are known for sensational news headings. If you can provide any WP:RS we can let this matter rest. A Reliable source should be "reliable, third-party, and published with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy". Your sources are neither third party, nor are they reliable. I mean no disrespect to you, but the fact of the matter is that when the photographer died, there were a lot of obituaries, and the government and the propaganda news outlets were keen to report on his achievements. This happens in all regimes like the iranian one. But this does not mean that thier propaganda is a reliable source for wikipedia articles. If this were the case, then the national news services of the North Korea are replete with "great achievements" of the "nations ultimate photographers, scientists and inventors". We do not include those, and the reason is simple; they do not have any reliable sources, the same is true here. So in a nutshell, the propaganda sources, that talk about the obituary of the photographer, cannot be used to create an article on the wiki about one of the photographers works. Elektricity (talk) 03:52, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, they are covering the photo. Regards. --Mhhossein talk 18:57, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Mhhossein actually they are puff pieces written to cover the death and 40 day anniversary of the photographer. If you can find any independent sources (not controlled by the iranian regime) that talk about this photograph, we can insert those. With this propped up by just trivial mentions and propaganda pieces of the iranian regime controlled media, it seems to me that the subject is non notable. There are many persian and Arabic sources that covered the revolution, there are countless books (English, Persian and Arabic) written about the revolution. If even after 30 years, not a single one of those academic books outside iranian regime controlled propaganda, and not a single one of the renowned historians gave this photograph any space, then we should heed the opinion of the historians and remove this from wikipedia as well. The revolution is not something that just happened and was forgotten, there are hundreds of books written about it in many languages. Elektricity (talk) 06:55, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You're just repeating your words. You've apparently got a wrong understanding of independence of the subject. You can simply search for the photo history. For example see this one saying: "Hossein Partovi’s photo of the Shah’s air force army technicians (Homafaran) in attendance at Ayatollah Khomeini’s domicile had a significant impact on the body of Shah’s army." --Mhhossein talk 20:08, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Mhhossein Your source actually strengthens the deletion argument. First of all it does not mention the photo by name, it does not call it Homsafran Allegiance or whatever, and secondly it is the very definition of trivial mentions, please read WP:TRIVIALMENTION. So You are actually strengthening the deletion argument here. Elektricity (talk) 04:51, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. None of the keep votes addressed the concerns that this failed the policy of WP:NOTNEWS, and relied solely on the notability guideline, when notability was used as only one of the rationales for deletion. The weight of the arguments in discussions is typically given to guidelines over policies, and while there can be disagreement as to when NOTNEWS applies, those supporting keeping in this discussion did not explain why this article was not covered by it. Because of that, the strength of the arguments in this case is for deletion. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:53, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Read earlier comments, incidents on transport delays are NOT notable.

It also serves to gauge the performance of the government in maintaining an efficient public transport system. or anything remotely similar. Ajf773 (talk) 23:27, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am just giving my opinion why this article is important. It doesn't have to state what I wrote. This list of MRT disruptions is highly remarkable given the high accolates that Singapore received for its "efficient" public transport system. What this article needs is a cleanup to trim unnecessary details. Information pertaining to disruption start time, duration, location, reason and impact would be sufficent. Jane Dawson (talk) 02:52, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Again, details of every single disruption is not notable and content relating to the efficiency of the transit network does not need a whole article assigned just for it. Ajf773 (talk) 03:04, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Saying that there are overall complaints about MRT performance is potentially notable news (although really, who doesn't complain?) but a blow-by-blow listing of every delay in the system is a huge dump of raw data which demands analysis to be meaningful, and I note under WP:INDISCRIMINATE item 3 specifically mentions "Excessive listings of unexplained statistics", which is is an exact description of what we have here. Mangoe (talk) 21:54, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oh it's you, no further comment required. Ajf773 (talk) 17:29, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • A large number have been removed but some still remain, even these incidents are not notable (a two hour delay is still pretty minor on a mass transport network). Only the ones with articles are worth mentioning. Ajf773 (talk) 07:20, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • So if some are worth mentioning, aren't there enough grounds for keeping an article, even if I might agree that something like List of major Singapore MRT disruptions or even Singapore MRT disruptions (abandoning the goal of being a list and focusing on analysis) would be better?

Comment John M. Anastasatos is a known plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills and in Greece as well, with many honors and recognitions during his scientific career WP:NACADEMIC, a lot of scientific presentations and publications. “Search engine statistics” is not a requirement to decide if an article should be deleted or not WP:INVALIDBIO.

Below there are the General notability guideline. I believe that this article passes all of them, and as such, should not be deleted. WP:GNG

• "Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent. (Article does not fail this.)

• "Sources", should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. Sources do not have to be available online or written in English. (Article does not fail this either.)

• "Reliable" means sources need editorial integrity to allow verifiable evaluation of notability, per the reliable source guideline. Sources may encompass published works in all forms and media, and in any language. Availability of secondary sources covering the subject is a good test for notability. (Plenty of reliable sources have been provided in this article, i.e. https://www.forbes.com/search/?q=Anastasatos#40bd379e279f)

• "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material (This has been provided as well.)

In my opinion this article has no promotional style and does not fail to the Writing style a Biography of a living person must have WP:BLPSTYLE. However I made some improvements. GogouAnastasia (talk) 17:51, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

De-prodded. New 2017 startup. Coverage in article doesn't show SIGCOV and definitely not CORPDEPTH. While this startup sounds like a "cool concept" and might definitely be notable in the future, at the moment it is WP:TOOSOON. Most of the sources in the article do not advance notability (own website, name mention in conferences, Cruchbase). I think Medium doesn't count as RS, but they do have a paragraph - [30]. We do have 1 good Bloomberg piece - [31] focused on the company (this was repeated (syndicate?) in Portuguese - [32] and summarized in sfgate - [33]). In short - essentially we have one Bloomberg article, which would not be enough for SIGCOV. Icewhiz (talk) 15:33, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Internet-related deletion discussions. • Gene93k (talk) 16:47, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Hi gentlemen, thanks for taking up this discussion. I'd like to bring up a few things: first, this is still a work in progress (WP:DEMOLISH, for example) and it is of high relevance to hundreds of thousands of listeners/viewers each week (myself included; I am in no way attached to the Nine Club).

As for notability, it is a podcast featuring dozens of the world's most important skateboarding personalities. Certainly, not a scientific topic, but each host meets notability criteria as do the vast majority of guests.

That said, the idea that the Nine Club "lacks sufficient coverage in reliable sources" is off for a few reasons. First, it is heavily covered in international skateboarding media (print and digital: see here for one example: http://www.jenkemmag.com/home/2017/07/19/behind-scenes-nine-club-studio/ or the 64 articles on Transworld Skateboarding, an independent and longstanding print and digital publication). Yes, the page needs updated with more sources beyond the Nine Club pages. I agree. I will take that upon myself to update and improve, under each of your watchful eye. But just because there are no peer-reviewed articles that mention the show doesn't mean that coverage is not "sufficient" for notability. I am myself a scholar employed at an American research university and I must say, suggesting this page for deletion while hundreds of much more questionable pages exist strikes me as a lack of understanding the content area or the cultural weight and international import of skateboarding, its history, and media culture. --Mariano Landa (talk) 19:18, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again, [still keep] I've made some revisions and included links to more than a half-dozen outside sources (journalism) in order to quelch doubts of "sufficient coverage in reliable sources." I'm aware that there is no scholarly research on the topic, and as such, I would suggest that specialist media serves to validate notability. Many subcultures do not get regular mention in major international outlets (say The New York Times or El Pais), but do get consistent and unbiased coverage from specialist media sources that are both reliable, professional, and intimately related to the subculture/demographic to which they relate. Please comment. Again, my intention is not to advertise for The Nine Club, but to highlight how this project serves as oral history archive broadcast and preserved for the skateboarding world and world at large. Mariano Landa (talk) 20:25, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, probably. Well, thanks for your efforts, and for adding sources. Sources are certainly needed. Concern must be about the quality of the sources so far added. They are definitely from the subculture which means they are unlikely to confer notability and might be considered simply unreliable. On your goals, they sound laudable but Wikipedia is not an archive, shrine, or museum. On WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, we are all painfully aware there are more things that ought to be deleted or radically pruned, and we're working on it, but their existence is no justification for adding to the list. If nothing better can be found to support the article's claims (and none of us have found any better sources) then deletion will be the right option. Chiswick Chap (talk) 20:39, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Chiswick et al, I thought that this was not a numeric vote, per se, but a means of discussing and proving or disproving the merits of a page based on argumentation. You've overlooked this fundamental point in the deletion debate.

A fundamental problem with the notability/sourcing guidelines is the inability to recognize robust and legitimate subcultures as appropriate content for Wikipedia. Again, I recognize that there is no scholarly sourcing related to this page. Of course there is not. I also recognize that the topic has not yet graced the pages of the New York Times. However, we are in a digital age wherein notability is not only marked by the gatekeepers of traditional print media and the sourcing norms continue to jeopardize the creation and aggregation of legitimate entries (by way of overall cultural importance and critical mass of interested and involved participants to whom the subject is highly relevant). While I don't expect any of you to rectify this, your pedantry smacks of cultural elitism more than any real justification for removal. To quote you, Chiswick Chap, in an earlier argument of yours for keeping an article: "it is not enough to assume that a poorly-sourced article is not notable"

To speak more directly to your point, a question prefaced by an example: underground but major/prominent musicians are often only written about by subcultural media. The same goes for visual artists (high culture, high art, etc.). These pages continue to exist with limited to no debate or question given that they are cited by subcultural media. Why would skateboarding media not be held to the same standard? Or is the argument that everything shy of Rolling Stone or the American Art Review coverage should be deleted? I'm sure that you must at least sympathize with this point. Mariano Landa (talk) 21:15, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We can sympathise with your (lengthy) plea for this article, and your ingenuity and diligence in searching for my quote, but I was making a far different point from what you hope I was saying in that other discussion. I was asking whether reliable sources, not yet cited, existed to demonstrate notability, as that's how we decide matters at AfD; you were hoping I was asking whether unsourceable articles on worthy topics could be notable: I wasn't, and they aren't. If you can find decent sources, I'll change my opinion: I'm not a pedant or cultural elitist, and by the way you can be blocked for using words of that kind about other editors. Lack of reliable sources is the "real justification for removal". Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:59, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Chap, You've far overstated my use of "cultural elitism" and "pedantry" and they weren't used as a taunt nor as direct insults in the context of many of the insults that I've seen imparted on other editors. As for "decent sources," there are reliable sources now: Billboard Magazine, BET, MTV News, High Snobiety, The Daily Dot. Perhaps these outlets are too modern for your tastes, but all of these outlets have broken major and serious stories in mainstream journalism and their citation of the Nine Club is a legitimation of notability. Their citing and sourcing of the Nine Club should serve to quell doubts as to the reliability or independence of sources. Not to mention the now present citation of the vast majority of major skateboard media outlets, each owned by corporate parent companies of repute. I'm still having a hard time coming to terms with the fact that any scientific journal short of Nature can be deemed sufficient if journalistic standards short of the NYT are insufficient. I get the peer review article angle on why any scientific journal would count as a notable source, but the fact that there are activities and groups that have been excluded from peer review sources (on the basis of scholarly cultural elitism) and in which no terminal degree is possible (skateboarding hardly registers within my field of cultural studies) ought to suggest that there is notability in realms beyond the scholarly or the creme de la creme of global journalism. I understand that many of you have dedicated countless hours to Wikipedia and for that I am grateful. I do however request that you open your horizons to the cultural validity of things that are foreign or even stigmatized in your corner of the world and also recognize that the sources related to these activities are valid, notable, and reputable albeit wanton of Pulitzer-holding outlets. Mariano Landa (talk) 04:28, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You write at great length. Reliable sources, however, go much wider than scientific journals. And kindly stop messing with my username. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:46, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The Nine Club is an essential and core part of skateboarding culture. To those who are not within the skateboarding scene, The Nine Club is an obscure talk show. To hundreds of thousands, though, it is a source of information and entertainment of both historical skateboarding icons, and current professionals. Additionally, the show has illuminated many of the inner working of the skateboard industry that were often only insider knowledge. If your standard is solely to have academic style citation and sources alone, then many cultural icons like The Nine Club will be missed. Themidnightwill (talk) 00:50, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The Nine Club is a long running podcast with thousands of listeners that is creating an archive of skateboarding history.

Then all you people need to do is to demonstrate its WP:Notability, which you haven't. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:46, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, Chiswick "you people." Now that's an insult. That said, per your insistence that we need to demonstrate notability, let's review. Notability is determined "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list." This page checks that box assuming admission of source reliability. On to that, here's the definition of reliable sources that mark notability, which would actually include skateboarding media, in spite of the fact that it isn't mainstream"
"Reliability: The content guideline to identify reliable sources says, "Reliable sources may be published materials with a reliable publication process, authors who are regarded as authoritative in relation to the subject, or both." Sources that have published materials in print (such as newspapers and other periodicals) are reliable if their publication process is considered reliable. If these sources also publish materials online, then it is usually fair to assume that these materials have a similar publication process (see WP:NEWSBLOG). If sources publish materials only online, then their publication process and/or the authority of the author should be scrutinized carefully."
All of the skateboard publications are "published materials with a reliable publication process" that appear in print and online. Editors of skateboarding magazines are, indeed "authors who are regarded as authoritative in relation to the subject." The new sources are reliable by definition and certainly independent of the program and its founders, as they're not related to The Nine Club program.

Mariano Landa (talk) 22:38, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not at all, I was just indicating that I was replying to two editors. However, repeating your arguments over and over again at length could definitely be considered "tendentious editing". The problem with your sources is that they're basically in-universe with respect to the topic, which I believe we agree is not mainstream. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:38, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Again, I don't think that we agree. "In-universe" sources would nullify thousands of pages otherwise deemed relevant. Billboard, MTV News, etc. are not "in-universe" to skateboarding. They're major media outlets. And I'm not being tendentious. I'm trying to make a point that you either don't grasp or won't acknowledge and I'm hoping that a third party will weigh in or mediate.

This completely unreferenced article is the very definition of listcruft. With no referenced definition of "surreal humor," the article can be populated with just anybody. A cursory glance at the list indicates that it's positively ludicrous. I know that "surreal" now has essentially no definition whatsoever, but this is an encyclopedia we're building and we have to have some standard of definition.

You say there's no definition of "surreal humor" but it links to Surreal humour, which is an attempt at a definition of surreal humour. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:33, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
What I said is that "surreal," in its common usage, including here on WP, has no definition. The Surreal humour article offers a vague attempt, at best, of its subject. And nothing in the awful Surreal humour article justifies the existence of this list article; the small number of such "comedians" could easily be included in that article, with references. ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 14:50, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Emotion has nothing to do with it. If the very few comedians on this list who are relevant can be cited, they can be included in an improved version of the Surreal humour article. But, nothing you've said here argues for keeping this list, which will be a constant target for the same sort of nonsense with which it is currently populated. ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 15:00, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
As I said, I am not arguing for keeping the list, just against deleting it with prejudice. You and I are in agreement that the best course of action is to delete the list page, and move the few, verified examples into Surreal humour. Many list pages on Wikipedia are prone to being "targets for this sort of nonsense", which I think is an endemic symptom of our "List-class" rating system, which prevents lists from being quality-rated (and thus being given attention to verifiability) the same as other articles; but that's for another project discussion page. JustinTime55 (talk) 16:03, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sigh...No one is proposing that the entire unverified list as it now stands be merged into the article; only that a few, select, well-verified (that's the real problem, isn't it?) examples be merged into the article. I can name a few off the top of my head: Ernie Kovacs; The Goon Show, and their descendents Monty Python and The Firesign Theatre; maybe The Goodies. Any more than that certainly isn't necessary. JustinTime55 (talk) 17:07, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I certainly agree that the inclusion of Gilbert Gottfried is a stretch, and I didn't mean to imply with my merge vote that the entire list as it stands now should be included in Surreal humour. As JustinTime55 stated, a select few of well-cited examples from the current list could be included, while the poor choices (I seem to recall Will Ferrell on the list...) could be omitted. I apologize for the confusion. Nanophosis (talk) 18:24, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That someone listed "surreal comedy" in the infoboxes of some of these comedians is irrelevant. All that matters is how the term is defined (in this case, no definition at all, as stated above) and how it is referenced in the respective articles. As I said above, the few comedians who can be defined as "surreal," with refs to support the claim, can be listed at the Surreal humour article. That is no argument for keeping this list, which will be a constant target for unreferenced rubbish. ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 14:25, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. While the version I originally tagged consisted almost entirely of the text of the poem (being of dubious copyright status), this version now indicates just that the poem exists and was written by its author. I admit I have no Korean abilities, which may also impact my ability to find other transliterations of the title, but a check I made at the time of tagging didn't give anything beyond the poem's existence, which isn't notability.

To respond to the sources you've provided, the first appears to be a passing mention of the author of the poem. The author has his own article as it stands, since he did a number of things in his lifetime. The second is much the same, a comment that the author himself is notable, but a passing mention that he also wrote this particular poem. The third is a mention in a footnote in a broader discussion of Korean literature, which at least has the advantage of not solely being about the author and his extra-poetic activities. I'm not convinced, though, that a scholarly aside amounts to more than a peripheral mention. Even if it did, notability still requires multiple reliable sources providing significant coverage.

Nope. Not your mistake, but the move earlier was in error, done without evidence or discussion. In fact, the former name of the island remains equally/more notable than random minor video game company. Vanilla Google itself is already about half and half [and all of the company hits are here at Wikipedia, its own www.atooi.com page, its own Facebook page, and its own Twitter feed, not other people talking about it]; Google Books, there is no contest: at least 50 pages of hits for the island and absolute bupkis for the video game company; ditto Google Scholar. The majority of the clickthroughs to the dab seem to be going to the island as well rather than any clicks at all on the company page. It was a compromise leaving a dab there; if anything, the space should point at the island with a hatnote towards the company. (Honestly, with how much more traffic the island page gets than the barely-notable company, the hatnote is probably UNDUE and the dab needs to be kept IAR in order to avoid needless and inappropriate free advertising. That's a separate conversation, though.) — LlywelynII 06:52, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Go reread your policy. If there's no PRIMARYTOPIC, then dabbing is precisely what we do. Planting a link to a minor commercial entity at the top of a much, much more heavily trafficked page for rule lawyerly reasons is also in violation of the much more important NOADVERTISING policy, as mentioned above. It's better to head the page with the neutral Atooi (disambiguation) link and point at the company from there. — LlywelynII 08:05, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This is not by mistake or error. User:Mirandajoseph01 is Creator of this article and User:Usmankg Created This Article on Hindi Wikipedia. I'm active wikipedian since 2013, Reviewer on Hindi Wikipedia. User:Usmankg Created some article and edit on hindi Wikipedia for promote IndraStra Global related. Amrita ji is also related this. Both article is nominated for deletion on hindi wiki also. Many Ref in Article but i think person is not noteble for encyclopedia. User promoted this only. I have request to reviewer and admin on enwiki please recheck. Thanks in advance.Yogesh Kavishwar (talk) 05:16, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I understand, I did not see your good work on the Hindu Wikipedia, however I do think the policy there and the policy here are substantially different. Since the article is not blatantly promotional or obviously lacking in notability I did not think there was a strong case to delete it. I see that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/IndraStra Global has dealt with your concern of user promotion on the company, and it shows that the creator used irrelevant refernces, so I looked into this article in more detail. Really this is something you should have outlined yourself as nominator, your nomination was too short and did not include the key reason for deletion, something to remember for next time. The reference list looks good, but it isn't good. In fact all the references are either written by Amrita Jash herself or mere mentions only. I will ping Frederickmwolf who commented based on my mistake. I feel that taking this into account, the article likely fails WP:GNG, does not meet WP:Author, and was created by a conflict of interest or undisclosed paid editor. It should be deleted and I have changed my recommendation to reflect that. Ilyina Olya Yakovna (talk) 10:33, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

List of Belgian beers[edit]

We have difficulty with lists, as the "potential for creating lists is infinite", but we tend to have difficulty defining when a list is not appropriate. WP:SALAT suggests that "Lists that are too general or too broad in scope have little value ... For example, a list of brand names would be far too long to be of value." Which is what we have with List of Belgian beer. Yes, the scope has been limited by type (beer) and country (Belgium), but we are still faced with a fairly pointless task of listing all the beer brands in Belgium, of which there are at any given time well over three thousand (see the Belgian page on RateBeer - and those listed who have reviewed over 3,000 different Belgian beer brands; but this figure isn't fixed because new brands are brought onto the market, some brands change name, and others stop being made. Trying to list all the beers of Belgium is like trying to catch smoke. Which might be worth attempting if there were some point to it. But while there are some brands which are notable, the bulk are not. Essentially a list of the over three thousand beer brands in Belgium is WP:INDISCRIMINATE, unhelpful, and impossible. What we'll have is an incomplete and random list of beer brands, which may or may not exist this time next month. SilkTork (talk) 01:30, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Beer in Belgium is 50K while the page in question is about 190K. Per WP:SIZE, it's appropriate to split this content. Per WP:NOTPAPER, "Splitting long articles and leaving adequate summaries is a natural part of growth for a topic." Andrew D. (talk) 13:03, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that as as a number of sub-lists it is likely to be an issue. For context, this is a list coming to about 750,000 bytes, which I have created as 15 sub-lists. That is a far larger list project than this would be, even if you listed every verifiable beer brand ever sold in Belgium it would barely get to a quarter of the size.

Incoherent article mashed up from a number of unrelated topics.

As a list article to document the nominees without having one massive large past, this seems completely reasonable. I will point out that as a list artcile, WP:NLIST applies - meaning that lists are not as subject to the GNG as non-list articles.[reply]

No evidence of notability per WP:N and WP:NFILMS. No independent reliable sources discuss this as a topic directly and in detail. Also, notability is not inherited per WP:INHERITORG. I made this page a redirect to the main page ("Satellite Awards") per alternatives to deletion WP:ATD-R. The redirect has been reverted. So, here we are.

Yes, please link to coverage in independent reliable sources that discuss the topic directly and in detail providing significant coverage. I don't think there is any such coverage. The references in this article are connected to the awards - which is not independent coverage. The actor might receive an award but notability is not inherited from the actor. Also, this award is not related to the Academy Awards so it has no bearing on this topic or this discussion. Thanks. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 04:07, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple child pages are not a sufficient reason for "keep". Each page is supposed to fulfill the notability criteria per WP:GNG. This one does not. And, Wikipedia is not a directory WP:DIR. NFILMS does not really apply to awards ceremonies so it was not necessary for me to bring NFILMS into the nomination. NFILMS applies to films and not awards. This was sent to AfD because the redirect was undone, which was created in the first place as an appropriate alternative to deletion.
Once the redirect was undone, I had no choice but take it to AfD. I am not going to engage in an edit war. The reason the other pages have not been taken to AfD is because those that were redirected satisfied the alternate to deletion criteria. The ones that have not been redirected did not come across my editing path. And still, those have nothing to do with this. Undoing the redirects to those pages that I redirected is premature. Stuff like this makes editing more difficult than it needs to be.
The rationale that was used to undo this redirect was not a rationale that had anything to do with notability - it said, "Where else would you like to see the best actors receiving this award? Especially the nominees, too. Nav pane itself wouldn't be sufficient." This seems rhetorical, and does not apply any notability criteria. The reason this page does not satisfy GNG or notability criteria is because the available sources are not sufficient. Take a look at the references:
  1. [41] not an independent source if no reliable third-party sources can be found on a topic, then it should not have a separate article. see WP:N Also, this is not signifigant coverage, it does not discuss the topic in detail per WP:GNG . It lists award winners and says nothing about the topic.
  2. [42] The subject of this source is Viggo Mortensen who one an award. This is not significant coverage to the topic. There is passing mention of this award while it discusses several people.
  3. [43] the subject is a nomination for "12 Years a Slave" a film, not best actor. It lists other award categories but this is not addressing the topic directly and in detail... see GNG.
  4. [44] not independent coverage. This is the company behind the awards that put up this web page.
  5. [45] this covers award winners in certain categories featuring the film spotlight. This is not signifigant coverage. Best actor is passing mention.
  6. [46] not independent coverage. This is the company behind the awards that put up this web page.
  7. [47] does not cover this topic in detail - not signifigant coverage.
  8. [48] does not cover this topic in detail - not signifigant coverage.
Once again, just to be clear, notability is not inherited from film actors, directors, producers, award winning films, and other nomination programs such as the Oscars and so on. The reason WP:INHERITORG was quoted is because it seems the available sourcing seems to rely on and consist of actors, directors, etc. receiving awards. This is not coverage of the topic, this is people and films receiving awards. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 00:06, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
