This is a list of random people with "Greg" in their name. If this doesn't fail WP:INDISCRIMINATE it is hard to understand what does. Jytdog (talk) 21:54, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep This page serves as a disambiguant along with all the other given name pages and actually is discriminate: if your name is Greg, you are eligible for the list. SportingFlyer talk 07:23, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • No it is not a disambig page. It would be as goofy to disambig on this as it would be on "the" or some other common word. If anything it is a list, and this fails WP:LISTN by miles. Jytdog (talk) 08:14, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• To get the obligatory “Other stuff exists” argument out of the way... I note that we have similar pages for many other given names (see Andy (given name) and Jenny (given name), just to list two at random). Is the “Greg” page any different? Blueboar (talk) 10:29, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • User:Blueboar I was unaware that we have other such collections in WP. My attention was called to this one, because a now-blocked sock trying like crazy to create and keep Greg J. Marchand came and added that person's name here, I reckon as part of an effort to de-orphan that page. I was cleaning up after them, and when I followed them here and looked at the page, I was astonished to see that this page even existed. What are people thinking?! This is pretty much the definition of "indiscriminate". Jytdog (talk) 16:40, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• If this is listing every blue-linked person with "Greg" as a first name, alongside other uses of "Greg" as a name (surname, fictional characters, etc.) then this seems fine. It is halfway between an encyclopedic page on the origin of the name "Greg" and a disamg page for "Greg" , and makes little sense to split them up. But this presumes that we have captured all blue-linked "Gregs" in the person list. If this is a random sampling, then that's a problem per LISTN. --Masem (t) 13:16, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • User:Masem how would a complete list of "Greg"s pass LISTN? Very interested in what sources you could bring that show that the topic "people with greg in their name" is notable. (and following on Blueboar's comment, that "people with X-first-name in their name" is notable.  :) Jytdog (talk) 16:40, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • If we're not discriminating on which blue-linked "gregs" to include, then its not a list but a disambiguation page. It already has parts that make sense as a disambiguation page, but that cannot omit any "Gregs" (which would then beg if we should have such disambi on first-name pages. --Masem (t) 21:44, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • User:Masem looking at all the history of discussion and the various guidelines, I don't see any page where it says it is legit to list every person with first name X on a page X. Many of them refer to using this thing -- All pages with titles beginning with Greg -- which this page has as the first "See also", to help people find and browse through all pages where a person has first name X. Jytdog (talk) 03:13, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Greg! Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 16:21, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Surely, if the existence of such pages is in question, there should be a general discussion about whether we should have such disambiguation/list/whatever pages about shortened forms of given names rather than pick off one such article at AfD? Having said that I would strongly disagree that 'this is pretty much the definition of "indiscriminate"'. It is in fact pretty much the definition of "discriminate", because it discriminates between people called "Greg" and everyone else, and notability of each individual Greg is a pretty obvious inclusion criterion to use. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:05, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • We can look at the bigger issue later. Take this as a test case. What is the basis in any policy or guideline for this page to exist? There isn't one that I can find. It is not a valid disambig page, and it is not a valid list. Jytdog (talk) 19:40, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. WP:NAMELIST indirectly addresses this: "To prevent disambiguation pages from getting too long, articles on people should be listed at the disambiguation page for their first or last name only if they are reasonably well known by it. ... Herb (disambiguation) does not even list any people named "Herb", but instead links to Herb (surname) and Herb (given name), where articles on people named "Herb" are listed." (bolding mine) To me, this means Herbs could legitimately be listed in dab pages, but aren't for a practical reason rather than for some fundamental disqualification. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:11, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• User:Clarityfiend thanks for that... clarity! Greatly appreciated.

My first response is that if we are following that, the only entries here should be:

• Greg (comics), the pseudonym of the Belgian comic book artist Michel Regnier
• Greg the Bunny, a puppet in a Fox sitcom of the same name
• Greg, the secondary main character in Over the Garden Wall

and everything else needs to be deleted. Correct? If folks agree, I will withdraw this.Jytdog (talk) 01:12, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• If there were non-people named Greg, I'd say that would have been possible, but I'm stunned to discover I couldn't find anything, not a village, a book, a film, anything (unlike Gregg, for some bizarre reason), so the given name is the primary topic. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:06, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize for not understanding you. So are you saying keep this and remove all the entries but those three I listed? Delete this whole thing? Leave it as it is? (i hope not the latter...) Something else? Jytdog (talk) 04:17, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• additional note -- that bit with "Herb (given name)" was added to the disambig guideline in this diff at 17:33, 27 September 2014.

I went looking in the archives to see discussion. There is:

• 2005 effort to have a "policy", with a !vote and all. Was not closed but way more "oppose" to the notion of having pages like Michael that are a bunch of people with that name.
• 2007 discussion, not much digging first-name lists, instead proposing people just use Special:PrefixIndex/Robert (all pages starting with "Robert")
• 2007 discussion, short, nothing much there
• 2010 discussion; complete muddle
• another 2010 discussion; longer, complete muddle
• 2011 very short discussion about a template
• 2018 discussion about removing names.

There was a bunch of discussion on the talk page in Sept 2014, now in archive 42 but this Herb (given name) thing was not discussed there.

I feel a lot like people did back in the 2005 pseudo-RFC, who were aghast that we would have pages listing a bunch of random people named Greg. how did we get here?? Jytdog (talk) 01:12, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Given name lists for common names aren't extremely useful, but they are better than a redlink in lieu of a proper article on the name. If there was only one notable person named Greg, "Greg" would redirect to their article. Since there are multiple notable Gregs, then a list of name-holders is acceptable. —Xezbeth (talk) 04:32, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That is just making things up, and has nothing to do with policies or guidelines or what we do here. Jytdog (talk) 07:17, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:DABNAME and Wikipedia:WikiProject Anthroponymy/Standards are "making things up"? —Xezbeth (talk) 07:24, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's entirely different than what you wrote the first time. Thanks for providing a meaningful rationale.

So Wikipedia:WikiProject Anthroponymy/Standards has a section called WP:NNAME that says A name article usually contains either a list of entries that link to other articles or a wikilink to a list article. If at least two articles matching the surname or given name of the subject of a name article do not exist, then the surname or given name list article would not be notable and should not be created. A properly sourced article about a name may still be notable without a list.. That is probably the lamest N standard that I have read anywhere in WP. It directly contradicts INDISCRIMINATE and invites dumping grounds like this page is currently. What the hell is going on here? Jytdog (talk) 08:11, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. Here's the way I see it. If there were a dab page, all these Gregs (given name and surname) would be 100% legitimate entries. The only reason people are handled a little differently from the run-of-the-mill entities is because there are often a lot of them, so they're usually split off. This case is a bit out of the ordinary, in that there aren't any other types of entries, but that oddity doesn't make them unlistworthy. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:52, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There are a few issues with this one though. There's a lot of Gregs currently listed at Gregory (given name). There are around ~2000 notable Gregs with articles that could/should(?) be listed. There is also some past precedent for deleting lists of extremely common given names such as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people named John. I think there are some more recent examples too but I can't recall any off hand. —Xezbeth (talk) 08:25, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Now I remember, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people named Jacob. The argument for deleting is sound, but the end result is Jacob (name), which is a short, unhelpful article that gets a disproportionate amount of views from people who are almost certainly looking for a name list. —Xezbeth (talk) 08:32, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So now we have this awkward situation, where lists are kept or deleted based on a seemingly arbitrary and hazy length cutoff. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:07, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Meets notability through his work, books and political 527 organisation. This page has been nominated on the grounds of ‘lack of improvement’ which is patently incorrect as a considerable amount of work has gone into adding cites and information since 2012, most pertinently the 4 further books (published by independent publishers) he has written in those years and the political organisation he runs, all properly cited (and incidentally might I remind that there is no requirement that any coverage has to be ‘exclusive’, exclusive isn’t mentioned on WP:GNG). The Party of Reason and Progress alone has The Raw Story, Vocativ and Motherboard. His various books have been recommended on CNN, CBC and Salon as well as the prominent sites in the field like Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science, and if you have the time to read the cites he is clearly a notable atheist in the field, I’ve read them because I improved the page, took care to make the page NPOV and remove anything i suspected of being puffery.

As Raymond has also brought up the previous AfD i’d also like to point out that of the five voters in that AfD only two of them haven’t been banned indefinitely for sockpuppetry and both of them voted to keep (I don’t count the IP with a single contribution, to the AfD.) Mramoeba (talk) 21:50, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Simply gainsaying the vote of every editor who votes differently from you isn’t adding to what is supposed to be a reasoned debate. Mramoeba (talk) 18:18, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete and salt: The subject is not notable but seems to be using Wikipedia to establishing his notability in the real world, as evidenced by the promotional way the article is written. Many of the sources in the article are either self-published, or uploaded on non-notable blogs, such as this one. Other sources only have a passing mention and lack in-depth coverage about McAfee. Both the previous AfD on this subject, as well as the talk page, mention that "not unlikely that he wrote a lot of this article himself". --1990'sguy (talk) 02:21, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I’m sorry but you can’t persist in accusing people of being McAfee, particularly since both Epicurus and Skepticalraptor have already pointed out they are not. For the record neither am I. Stop being disruptive. I get you don’t like McAfee because he doesn’t believe in god but he’s not ‘using Wikipedia’. Mramoeba (talk) 09:48, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stop accusing people of having ulterior motives. Sources are unreliable, self-published and if you continue to promote them in breach of Wikipedia policy then obviously people would doubt your motives. Capitals00 (talk) 17:51, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep and start over with a lot of loving WP:TNT. I think McAfee probably is notable, but this article is overly sourced with references that aren't independent of the subject, and feels very promotional. There are, however, enough mainstream secondary sources which discuss his books which, in my opinion, make him pass WP:NAUTHOR #1 as being cited by his peers. Some are already in the article itself. I haven't seen the older article, but this article has too many primary/non-independent-of-the-author/irrelevant sources. SportingFlyer talk 07:41, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per SportingFlyer and Mramoeba comments. RobP (talk) 12:30, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean by "per SportingFlyer and Mramoeba comments"? They haven't addressed how the subject pass notability. Subject fails WP:NAUTHOR and works on promoting himself even on Wikipedia. Capitals00 (talk) 17:51, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Google the title of his books instead of his name - they've been very widely discussed within the atheist community and have been cited in Salon and CNN and other articles. The article as it stands does a terrible job of demonstrating this and needs a little more self-confidence, which is why I recommended WP:TNT. I'd also like to note several of the delete votes in this topic are from users who based on their user page may not have a neutral point of view on the topic of atheism. SportingFlyer talk 18:45, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:AUTHOR. David G. McAfee meets none of the criteria that are required for notability. The sources in the article are non-notable websites from advocacy groups [1]. The one Washington Post article has only a passing mention [2]. As this article has been recreated and there are WP:COI concerns, it also might be wise to salt this article to prevent further promotional abuse. desmay (talk) 13:21, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete clear failure of WP:AUTHOR and the article is apparently a promotion. Lack of coverage in independent references. Capitals00 (talk) 17:51, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. This article does not meet WP:GNG and seems to be written to advertise the subject. Bmbaker88 (talk) 18:18, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I do think the Salon, CBC, and CNN mentions of his books, founding the 527 org Party of Reason and Progress, along with publishing 7 books (only 1 of which was self-published), support him being notable. And, to Mramoeba's point above, exclusive coverage isn’t mentioned on WP:GNG. I don't see why people are calling the article "promotional." I'm not seeing puffery or advertising that would suggest that. Dustinlull (talk) 18:59, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How come this is your first AfD in last 5 months? Passing mentions don't really establish notability. Issues are same as they were during Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David G. McAfee. Raymond3023 (talk) 09:34, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I saw notice of this AfD on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism page. I did some work on this article back in 2013, so I wanted to weigh in.

• Keep I was brought here by a notice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Christianity/Noticeboard‎. Sufficient number of sources that are independent of the subject. Granted, some of the references are poor quality, but the subject easily meets GNG. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:35, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The original AfD is by now too dated to have any relevance. When the discussion occurred he had only one self-published book. He has subsequently had 5 books published by publishing houses as well as articles printed. He has surely moved from not notable to at least a minor notability in the last 6 years Martin of Sheffield (talk) 18:28, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Few articles on patheos.com (unreliable source) doesn't count as notability. So far that's all he has got. There is a lack of exclusive coverage which makes him non-notable. Raymond3023 (talk) 08:33, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Check out the references section. He's being cited by the likes of the Washington Post and CNN. Martin of Sheffield (talk) 09:15, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

CNN and WashingtonPost makes slightly more than a passing mention,[3]https://edition.cnn.com/2013/11/22/living/matrimony-atheist-wedding] now whether it is enough for making a stand alone biographical article is yet to be clarified. Raymond3023 (talk) 10:06, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Several of the Delete voters are parroting one another and are highlighting what is a spurious rationale for their vote. The subject of this article does not need to meet the criteria of WP:AUTHOR (which is in the ADDITIONAL criteria section) to be be notable, if he meets the criteria in the Basic Criteria section of Wikipedia:Notability (people) -- which I and the other Keep votes maintain that he does. Also, the repeated use of "salt" by some people is quite obnoxious and hints at ulterior motives - not wanting an atheist activist to be the subject of an article no matter what he accomplishes. As I understand it, salting implies making it damn near impossible for a resurrection (pun intended) of the article no matter what future news-worthy accomplishments may occur for the subject. That seems just wrong on the face of it, and openly calling for that seems to me to display an ugly bias in some of the people voting to delete. RobP (talk) 03:01, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Repeated creation of articles about non-notable subject does result in salting. All I see is spam of patheos.com and "keep" votes from accounts that haven't participated in an AfD for a very long time (WP:CANVASSING) and they talking about everything except the notability issues of this subject including you. You don't have to show your own "ugly bias" by badgering delete votes based on your beliefs. Focus on subject only. Raymond3023 (talk) 08:33, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

1. So it is an ugly bias to point out possible bias? Nice attempt to deflect. What's my ugly bias in thinking this article deserves to be on Wikipedia? Not going to even get into the "badgering" dig, as one vote and a comment can only be construed as badgering by someone not understanding the word. 2. Again, perhaps a problem with understanding a word: there is no way that a second version over 6 years later with significant additions could reasonably be construed as "repeated". That "policy" is clearly designed for someone quickly bouncing an article back that went through AfD. 3. How often one participates in AfD discussions is a ridiculous criteria for considering their opinions. As was mentioned, if that were the case, a small group of dedicated people could control the process entirely. Seems to me by what I generally see in AfD records is that is exactly what often seems to happen. Perhaps in fact, editors should be prohibited from voting in AfDs too often! 4. And most importantly, you claimed I was "talking about everything except the notability issues of this subject" when in fact, my main point was that holding the subject to WP:AUTHOR is an improper use of notability rules, and several did that... and you conveniently did not address that at all. RobP (talk) 11:42, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain how regularly participating in AfDs (presumably just adding "me too" !votes to keep the numbers up) is a prerequisite for ever participating? You cannot know how often people read the discussion and find that others have already raised the points they want to make, so keep quiet. Your argument leads to a closed coterie of permitted AfD regulars dictating to those interested in the subject under discussion.Martin of Sheffield (talk)

I have done extensive research on the topic of atheism. I follow Google news on the topic of atheism. I have a couple of friends who write about atheism and current events. I also have a friend who posts on a popular social media page on atheism. I have never heard of this guy up until now.

I agree that I don't think Wikipedia should be the platform to help anyone become notable, when they are not. However, a personal anecdote concerning your (or your friends) level of knowledge of someone is not a fit argument for notability on Wikipedia. If that were a valid argument, I could urge delete for a huge percent of the millions of article in this encyclopedia. Including bios. Many with many less sources than this one.

Christopher O'Neill[edit]

Christopher O'Neill (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

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

The article defines Christopher O'Neill as a British financier and husband of Princess Madeleine of Sweden. Christopher O'Neill is not, however, notable as a British financier. The article about him exists since he married a Swedish princess, despite his clearly stated wishes to remain a private citizen. The article itself reports that. It has been emphasized by the Swedish royal court that O'Neill, unlike the spouses of his wife's siblings, is not a member of the royal family. Unlike them, he does no royal/state business whatsoever and holds no title. The official website of the Swedish monarchy does not have an entry for him.

A quick look at the content of the article is enough to establish that Christopher O'Neill is a person who is out of the spotlight and who is not independently notable. There is only sentence in the entire article which is neither basic personal info (place of birth, education, etc) nor family info (parents, stepcousins, wife, children). It says: "He was a Partner and Head of Research at Noster Capital and former employee of NM Rothschild and Sons and Steinberg Asset Management." The source is the Swedish royal court, however, meaning not independent coverage. O'Neill is not notable as a professional. The article exists because he is someone's husband, even though he does not do anything noteworthy as a husband. Surtsicna (talk) 18:12, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy Keep - This is a royal person whichh has recieved attention world wide. His wedding to the Princess was broadcast live in not only Sweden. He has attended a lot of royal functions along with his wife. Article is sourced with mostly Royal courts sources but that is not a problem. That he is "only the husband" is a POV statement which bares little significance since all Royals have husbands/wifes which have separate articles. In fact Christopher is an accomplished businessman, the same can not be said about all in similar position. Passes WP:GNG.BabbaQ (talk) 22:08, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have cited the Royal Court saying that Christopher O'Neill is not a "royal person". Your WP:OTHERSTUFF argument is what has no significance. Besides, spouses of the King's other children are not private citizens but royals themselves. O'Neill is not notable for being an "accomplished businessman"; we had no article about him before his marriage, and (as Domdeparis has noted) we would not have one if it weren't for the marriage. His notability as an accomplished businessman is such that only one sentence in the five paragraphs is about his business career. Surtsicna (talk) 23:13, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Keep Agree with BabbaQ, although to be clear, he isn't actually a royal himself. --Marbe166 (talk) 22:45, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    • I stated that he is a Royal person, not that he is a Royal. He has recieved the distinction of Commander of the Royal Order of the Polar Star, as an example by the king. So not an untrue assertion from my side.BabbaQ (talk) 23:21, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Surtsicna I agree with every word BabbaQ wrote, except the first "royal". The main reasons for O'Neill not being royal are because he did not want to give up his American (and British) citizenship for a Swedish one, and because he wished to continue his profession as a businessman. He did not want to become a completely anonymous person (which of course would be impossible), which is the picture you are trying to give here. --Marbe166 (talk) 07:29, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have never said anonymous. I have only used his own (or the royal court's) words. Millions of people using social media are not anonymous, yet they are not notable either. Surtsicna (talk) 09:37, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. "Mr Christopher O'Neill has respectfully requested to remain a private citizen and not to be granted royal rank." If this statement by the Royal Court is not enough to establish that Christopher O'Neill wishes to be and functions as a private citizen, then let us compare his role within the Swedish monarchy and in Swedish public life with that of his sister-in-law Princess Sofia, Duchess of Värmland, who has likewise married into the family. The activities of Sofia (who joined the royal family in 2015) are mentioned 1,130 times in English by the Royal Court. O'Neill (who married in 2013) is mentioned 82 times. The difference is even more striking in Swedish: the Royal Court mentions Sofia's activities 2,720 times and O'Neill 95 times. The numbers speak for themselves, and it would be entirely reasonable to honor the subject's respectful request (especially since the Royal Court does so too, not having a separate entry for him). Surtsicna (talk) 00:14, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Surtsicna: are you suggesting that the subject has requested that this article be deleted? Dom from Paris (talk) 08:56, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No. He has, however, requested privacy and no role as a princess's husband - yet this article exists solely because of his marital status. That is contrary to the sentiment expressed by himself and the royal court. Surtsicna (talk) 09:37, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Being a private citizen means not being a member of the royal family and is very different from wanting privacy which is your basis for deletion of this article. When someone marries a high profile person the limelight is turned on them. If there is sufficient in depth independent coverage of them then notability is met. It is pointless to argue that they would prefer this article not to exist. Dom from Paris (talk) 07:43, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Distinguished naval officer, yes, but does every distinguish flag officer of the Royal Navy have a Wikipedia page? No. He has a page because his wife is the Queen's daughter, a British princess. Well, Chris O'Neill is not a superstar in his profession, it's true. He's not Jamie Dimon. However, he's married to the Swedish king's daughter. His children are Royal Highnesses. Look, do what you want. Make a debate over it, whatever.

To my mind there seems to be 3 sources that meet the requirements, NRK and the 2 SvD articles. Admittedly from what I can gather they are about his role as husband of the princess but they are in depth and in secondary sources. I would have expected the discussion to talk more about these sources than just !voting speedy on presumption of notability. Dom from Paris (talk) 09:16, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    • Surtsicna, you don't have to reply to every single person leaving a opinion here. You've made your point clear several times, others just simply does not agree with your assessments.BabbaQ (talk) 10:51, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • I do not have to, but I choose to do so. My "assessments" are corroborated by official sources and hard data; a mere disagreement amounts to a personal point of view. Wikipedia is built by productive discussion, not by voting. It would be helpful if "every single person leaving an opinion here" would also leave arguments, especially about sourcing, as Dom from Paris has repeatedly suggested. Surtsicna (talk) 11:37, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Sources are good enough for verifiability and the subject passes WP:GNG with flying colours, as far as I'm concerned. As for his role as merely husband to someone who happens to belong to the Swedish royal family, and that he has undertakes no royal duties, well, he's still become part of the family whether he likes it or not, he's been treated much like Sofia or Daniel in the Swedish press, where he has definitely not been out of the spotlight, as the sources here, in the Swedish Wikipedia article and even more so a basic search in Mediearkivet show. It's unfortunate in some ways, but it's not for him to decide. /Julle (talk) 13:44, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not saying he doesn't meet GNG but can you tell us which sources show this? Dom from Paris (talk) 23:11, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Chris O'Neill" or "Christopher O'Neill" give roughly 9000 hits in Swedish newspaper archives, so wading through all the trivial mentions takes a while, but This article in Svenska Dagbladet (one of the dominating and most respected daily newspapers in Sweden) is an in-depth article focusing on O'Neill, for example. "Blivande make med låg profil" in Dagens Industri (available through Mediearkivet, requires subscription) another. Additionally, we have for example a couple of articles in Veckans Affärer focusing on his business practices: En aktivist i kungafamiljen, "Inte inblandad i svenska företag" for non-trivial coverage of his work. /Julle (talk) 00:06, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that. As I said when reverting the redirect a few months ago the arguments that he must be notable because he is married to a princess doesn't follow policy. There is no inherited notability. The multitude of passing mentions and court documents are not enough. In depth coverage in independent reliable sources must be found... I even pointed to 3 that are already there but as I do not understand them I cannot comment. The nom and various keep !voters do not address the quality and coverage of the existing sources and are getting bogged down with whether he a "Royal" or a "royal person"... this discussion is going nowhere fast. We just need a couple of valid sources and a keep !vote that points to them to put this to bed. Dom from Paris (talk) 06:36, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So you ask Julle for his opinion. He answers and gives a good rationale for his opinion. You dismiss it completely and states that the discussion is going nowhere. Its going nowhere for a reason, let the AfD run its course because I think the closing admin will see this in clear light.BabbaQ (talk) 07:41, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nope you misunderstood me, I am saying his is the first policy based !vote and I am congratulating him!!! Dom from Paris (talk) 07:48, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Exactly my point. He is not Royal but he is a Royal person per work and appearances. Thank you for that input Julls.BabbaQ (talk) 15:06, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. It is usual for spouses of children of ruling houses to have articles. They're notable people in their countries, whether they hold royal rank or not. Well-sourced. And probably notable under WP:ANYBIO #1 anyway as a holder of the Commander of the Order of the Polar Star. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:50, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As per WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS Just because there are articles about people in the same position as him doesn't mean he meets notabilty requirements himself and as per the additional criteria that you have cited from WP:ANYBIO it specifically says " meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included". They are pointers to whether the sources to show notability exist or not. Dom from Paris (talk) 14:19, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You misunderstand. OSE is irrelevant here. The reason they have articles is because it is common sense for them to have articles. You cannot with all seriousness claim that spouses of princes and princesses of ruling houses are not notable people. Surely only someone with some sort of republican agenda could possibly claim that. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:24, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Necrothesp: I object to that totally unfounded ad hominem comment. You know nothing about me but as you seem to be interested in me and not what I have said just for your information I am a royalist and am proud to be a subject of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and also able to say that I can trace my family back with no difficulty whatsoever to the 11th century, my family tree also counts Charles II as a member. The pages you talk about may have been created because they are married to members of a royal family but notability is not inherited, try reading WP:INVALIDBIO that should help you understand my argument. Dom from Paris (talk) 15:39, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Domdeparis: Please reread what I actually wrote. I certainly did not accuse you of having a republican agenda. I made no ad hominem comment (although I certainly apologise if you thought I did). I merely opined that someone who claimed in all seriousness that spouses of princes and princesses of ruling houses are not notable must have such an agenda to make such a comment, since it is obvious that no such person would have a lack of sourcing and they are notable because of their position, just as members of legislatures and senior judges and senior military officers are. Some things just come under the category of common sense and do not need to be spelled out. I know you did not say that; I saw your comment below. -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:09, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as there is sufficent in-depth coverage in independent reliable sources to pass WP:GNG. In this I discount all the kungahuset.se references and notably take into account the sources mentioned by User:Julle on top of the NRK and the 2 SvD articles already cited on the page.

Non-notable concert tour. Fails WP:NCONCERT. Polyamorph (talk) 20:07, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Re: It is notable because it is an international tour, In 3 countries and 2 continents and is played by cupcakke, which is already notable with her own wikipedia page and a wikipedia page for the album she is promoting. User:Jusipher (talk) 20:10, 19 April 2018

Just because the artist has a wikipedia page, does not automatically make the music she produces (i.e. all those song articles you are creating) and her tour notable enough for inclusion as a separate article. Where is the significant coverage? Certainly not in the sources provided in the article. Please read WP:NCONCERT. Polyamorph (talk) 20:25, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Even if the tour doesn't have significant coverage, the songs most definitely are notable, they have sources from several news sources, such as Stereogum, The Fader, Genius (website), Spin (magazine), Noisey, Pitchfork (website), HotNewHipHop, Tiny Mix Tapes and MTV.

Delete - Almost no coverage of the tour in independent reliable sources (except merely to say that the tour is coming or has happened). The Affinity magazine source comes the closest, but I can't find other reviews of the tour. As such, I don't think the tour meets WP:NCONCERT at this time. Per the conversation above, just noting that this doesn't mean the artist, album, and songs can't all be notable. Just that there may not be sufficient coverage of this tour to establish notability.

No, the sockpuppet was the one that was technically correct.

Bosnian company of questionable notability (WP:GNG). All sources are offline and rather old. Search results seem to be almost only Wikipedia mirrors. The article content does not suggest that the company is particularly prominent or remarkable, or anything other than a WP:MILL business. No local language version of the article exists.

• Delete - the titles of the old offline references don't give any indication of notability. One of the problems is that there appear to be 3 individual entities described in the article - a company, a factory, and the chimney itself. The refs are about the company which seems to have closed in the 1990s and it is clearly not notable. The factory might be referenced in some of the citations, but it is just a ruined or disused factory and they are a dime a dozen in Bosnia (see photos on Google maps for a couple of pix of the factory and the chimney). So that leaves the chimney itself - probably without any references. Is a 150 meter tall chimney notable? I can't really tell, but ultimately it's up to the authors to show this. Smallbones_(smalltalk) 19:45, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

One idea on notability of tall chimneys: List of tallest chimneys gives 578 chimneys, 492 of which are taller than 150 m. The range is 420 - 125 m. Very roughly 40% of them have associated articles, but these are usually for the factory, plant, or generating station, not for the chimney itself. By this very rough indicator - it doesn't look like the chimney is notable. Smallbones_(smalltalk) 21:06, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep but rename to Incel (company) for the start – the article is chiefly about the (former) company, and the chimney is about the only piece that remains. Incel was a major industrial combine from Banjaluka during SFR Yugoslavia age, that used to employ 6,500 workers. Here's a rather comprehensive article about it:
  • "Incel: Simbol privrede postao njen spomenik (XIV)" [Incel: Symbol of economy became its gravestone]. Capital.ba Business Portal. 4 August 2015.

A lot more could be drawn from old paper sources, but I think the one above could alone support a reasonable article. There is matching fr:Incel_Holding_Banja_Luka. No such user (talk) 16:14, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I expanded the article with some basic facts available in online sources. I'm not terribly interested in the subject and did not want to spend much time on it, but I think it passes the minimum standards. Notability is WP:NOTTEMPORARY, and the original text did cite some offline material, but I don't have it available. No such user (talk) 14:29, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also the label is made of sub-labels as most labels are, meaning an artist has his own label which is owned and managed by the main label which means that not always Gang Shit Records will be appear as the publishing label.

I found this http://dailygrimenews.co.uk/2017/11/exclusive-interview-with-georgi-zhechev-gang-shit-records-founder-ceo/ from some British rap website and also this from some social + branding site that gets about 360k visits a month https://sloganshub.org/music-production-company-names-ideas/ but I acknoledge that is irrelevant :D

Hi Dom from Paris, I found another one http://grimecentral.co.uk/2017/11/gang-shit-records-racks-up-the-nominations/

• Weak Keep The sources are very weak in terms of trustworthines, but it seems that they do have a couple of high profile artists on the record label. I also looked up the UK charts and there are some hits in the charts that are credited to the label. Illuminatio320 —Preceding undated comment added 23:01, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

From reading the article it seems that some artists have been nominated for notable awards in the British rap scene known as the MOBO and Rated Awards, also its Distributor is set as Atlantic which may add extra notability. However it has a lot of secondary sources but currently not a lot of primary sources, also a lot of info is not backed. Just wanted to add some more info I found for other people to make up their mind. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Illuminatio320 (talk • contribs) 00:57, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete The sources are weak and the article reeks of promotion. WP:NOTPROMOTION. I removed about a dozen Youtube links, which amount to unreliable sources that support OR in the context that they were used. Also, the above two accounts voting keep are highly suspicious. I see coordinated movements.104.163.159.237 (talk) 05:54, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Article is promotional in tone and fueled by either niche or self-published sources with no significant third-party coverage. The "notable artists" section is particularly laughable. sixtynine ^{• whaddya want? •} 05:23, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete (as per nom) along with Line-oriented programming language or merge what remains of both into Comparison of programming languages (syntax)#Statements. SpaceInnovader (talk) 13:21, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Comparison of programming languages (syntax)#Statements with a mention of the "Line-oriented language" terminology. "Line-oriented language" is a concept in programming languages and was a common approach in older languages line Fortran.[10] Newer languages like Ruby are also claimed to have some line-oriented features.[11] While well-known in the programming field, I don't know if there is sourcing sufficient to support a standalone article. Nevertheless, it is a verifiable concept and worth a mention in Comparison of programming languages (syntax)#Statements, where the concept is discussed. Linear syntax on the other hand seems to have no sourcing out there. So I recommend delete for Linear syntax, and redirect for Line-oriented programming language and Line-oriented language. --Mark viking (talk) 21:48, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable businessman who fails WP:ANYBIO. Subject co-founded two companies. Coverage exists, but not enough to pass WP:SIGCOV as sources are all about the subject's company rather than the subject himself, I.E trivial and tangential mentions. In addition, nothing indicates to me why this individual is distinctly notable when compared to other businessmen. Created by a COI editor, though this is not against policy. A redirect to Kush Bottles (which was also recently created by the same COI editor) is also possible. SamHolt6 (talk) 06:20, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. As always, unelected candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates per se — if you cannot demonstrate and reliably source that he has preexisting notability for some other reason besides being a candidate, then he has to win the election, not just run in it, to clear the notability bar as a politician.

• Keep. Some new sources have been added, including a mention of Silveira in the Modesto Bee. Silveira is a minor candidate, but unlike some of the others mentioned in the Los Angeles Times article he is the nominee of an actual political party. The American Solidarity Party article shows that in the 2016 presidential election, the party's nominee was certified as a write-in in eighteen states (including California), and on the ballot in Colorado. So while not every candidate is notable, being the nominee of this party in California suffices for notability. — Lawrence King ^(talk) 22:12, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The mention is in a letter to the editor: hardly significant, and your assumption would make most if not all minor candidates presumptively notable. SportingFlyer talk 05:50, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to California gubernatorial election, 2018, the primary reason Silveira has any coverage at all. There is no significant, third party coverage in reliable, independent sources. The Modesto Bee source is a letter to the editor. Primary sources (e.g. interview in Imago Dei Politics) do not count towards notability. Being included in a list of 27 gubernatorial candidates does not establish independent notability. --Animalparty! (talk) 22:52, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, investigating further gives some sources, which I'd still say less than, notability (there's some coverage of their buying of Nipton and some analysis, but they generally aren't too indepth on the company and repeat similar things); but anyhow still delete on WP:NOTPROMO and WP:TNT, either way; judging by copyvio detector this article is largely a mish mash of sentences copied from press releases (@YeahImaBoss: don't copy from press releases or any other website) and needs to be mostly removed on copyvio grounds Galobtter (pingó mió) 10:25, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - this is likely a pump and dump scam - I went to check out something that didn't look quite right - the infobox said it was NYSE listed (lede too, but this might have been later). Company is "listed" on the Pink sheets not NYSE. Pink sheets are the lowest of the low. NYSE-listing or other "real exchange"-listings are the top tier, NASDAQ has 2 tiers (National + ?) then there are 3 OTC tiers (pink sheet is the lowest). Bloomberg quotes a $0.00 stock price. All classic pump and dump signals. Can we get rid of this ASAP? It is toxic waste. Smallbones_(smalltalk) 20:57, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
