"Biography" of a fictional character, written entirely in-universe and referenced entirely to the books themselves. As always, every character who exists in a work of fiction does not automatically need his or her own standalone article just because the books he's in recursively metaverify their own plots -- the notability test for fictional characters requires real-world context, sourced to critical and cultural analysis of his significance in sources other than his creator's own work.

Economic impact of kpop throughout South Korea[edit]
It might be theoretically possible to write a real encyclopedia article about this topic, but this is not that article -- this reads more like the introduction to a first-year university essay than like a proper encyclopedia article. The blow it up and start over principle applies here, basically -- even if a good article can be written about the economic impact of K-pop on South Korea, this as written not only isn't that article, it isn't even the seed from which that article could sprout. Bearcat (talk) 22:02, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I basically agree with everyone above so I'm tempted to say "redirect to K-pop but "Economic impact of kpop throughout South Korea" is not a useful redirect. So delete is the way to go imo, although a note could be added to Talk:K-pop listing potentially useful references from the article to be deleted. Pichpich (talk) 16:33, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The economics of the genre are already discussed (much better) at K-pop, and the title is unlikely to be a redirect-worthy search term.

What is the point of this personal attack? You could have provided a simple shortcut. For instance, WP:IHN for describing inherent notability. – The Grid (talk) 14:52, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Partly my misunderstanding. I had no idea what "IMO" meant and assumed this editor was asserting that libraries have inherent notability, when in fact this editor was stating it was "in my opinion". "IMO", "CF", "THX"...IDGI. Magnolia677 (talk) 17:01, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Magnolia677 for following up with explanation that you didn't understand what Tagishsimon meant. Hmm, i visited here a few times and did not understand your own post, what you meant by the sequence IMO, CF, THX, ...IDGI. Now I finally do, your point is that Tagishsimon used the first three, and then you used the abbreviation for "i don't get it". Ah. Okay, good, and it is a fair point about how we should strive to communicate clearly, for USian and other editors too (just to throw in some jargon that puzzled me in some other discussion, for the heck of it!). Thanks! --Doncram (talk) 03:45, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I don't know about pomposity, but I do think that public libraries are basically notable as important institutions that are key part of social fabric. There are countless references in papers to events at the libraries and it is useful to have a Wikipedia page as a reference. It is okay to cover an individual library within an article about a library system instead, but here I don't see a library system article to which this could be merged, and the article seems fine as it is. The article has four sources separate from external link to a county page that seems to be the official page of info for the library, and that does not include no doubt numerous news articles about budgets and so on. The opening hours should be dropped though. --Doncram (talk) 05:49, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Some local libraries--like some elementary schools--are indeed notable. This isn't one of them. Except for this source, which was cited in the article, there is trivial mention of this library in secondary sources (and no, Friends of Shannon Staub Library isn't a reliable source). Unless there is indeed some inherent notability to local public libraries, as User:Tagishsimon has asserted, then let's respect WP:GNG, lest we have articles about every local public library and their poetry reading hours. I see that Elsie Quirk Public Library, also created by this editor, was proposed for deletion by User:DGG. Magnolia677 (talk) 13:58, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Given there is a new article on the library system with a section for this one, it is ok by me for this to be closed by "merge" to there, specifically to Sarasota County Library System#Shannon Staub Library. I still think "keep" is ok. "Merge" is preferable to "redirect" as a close because substantial material (including the reference accepted as independent and valid by several here) is being merged / has been merged to there. "Redirect" would be unnecessarily derogatory about the value of the article which was created, in my opinion. —Doncram (talk) 20:21, 26 November 2018 (UTC) [revised 01:23, 27 November 2018 (UTC)][reply]

Redirect to the county system , which seems the obvious way to handle this,and the way we have almost always handled similar articles. The article here is no more than an directory entry. None of the sources meet the usual standards. Being a key part of the community fabric would extend our coverage way beyond our usual concepts of notability--for example, it would logically include every local church. DGG ( talk ) 16:13, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Public libraries are different from churches, which are private, are allowed to discriminate in certain ways, are not publicly funded, have no public info available in general or from, say, FOIL requests, etc. —Doncram (talk) 20:24, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly, Delete Redirect to Fluke Corporation. Oh, my, that's embarrassing (I'm the original author, 11 years ago). I did some searching. Other than zillions of hits in the DigiKey, Mouser, and similar catalogs, all I could find are a few passing mentions
but I can't honestly argue any of this meets WP:NCORP. Which is a shame, and somewhat surprising, since Pomona is a major company in their field, and has been around for ages. I was buying their stuff in the 1980's, and they're still going strong. -- RoySmith(talk) 00:55, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
According to https://www.fluke.com/, "The Fluke family includes many brands around the world including PLS, Pomona and Amprobe." Clicking on "Select a Fluke company" and "Pomona" redirects the browser to https://www.pomonaelectronics.com/. This confirms that Pomona Electronics is still part of Fluke Corporation.
Here are sources I found about Pomona Electronics to verify information about the subject:
Pomona Electronics was founded in early 1952 to manufacture one product, a test cable assembly for checking TV picture tubes. Three working partners and one production girl launched the business in a plant area no larger than a good-size living room.
The nine years since this beginning have seen the company outgrow its quarters twice and progress from this one item (no longer manufactured) to more than 100 specialized products. Their products are enjoying an ever increasing acceptance by manufacturers and laboratories concerned with testing and design of electronic equipment.
Many of the items currently manufactured are a direct result of development by Joseph Musarra.
Smith, Kevin (2002-04-16). "2 firms planning to leave Pomona - Companies will take 150 jobs with them". Inland Valley Daily Bulletin.
The article notes:
Pomona Electronics, a subsidiary of the Everett, Wash.-based Fluke Corp., plans to move its manufacturing facility to Everett by June, company officials said.
The company's 34,000-square-foot plant, at 1500 E. Ninth St., employs 100 workers, some of whom will move to Washington and remain with the company, Fluke spokesman Larry Wilson said.
EVERETT, Wash. -- Fluke Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Danaher Corp., announced the acquisition of Pomona Electronics, Pomona, Calif., from its parent company, ITT Industries.
As part of the agreement, Pomona will continue as Pomona Electronics and will operate as a division of Fluke.
Founded in 1951, by Joseph J. and Carl Musarra, Pomona Electronics produces more than 300 products in the electronic test accessories field.
The firm maintains a nationwide network of dealer-representatives to serve industrial and government clients. The firm is represented in Europe by ITT Cannon Europe, a division of International Telephone and Telegraph Corp.
Founded in 1951 by brothers Joseph J. (now president) and Carl W. Musarra, Pomona Electronics has grown from a tiny shop with two employees and one product to a multimillion-dollar enterprise producing more than 300 products in the electronic test accessories field.
Cunard (talk) 05:51, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There may be enough coverage about Pomona Electronics to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline. This hinges on how much coverage Gloria Ricci Lothrop's book Pomona: A Centennial History provides about Pomona Electronics. The book's index says "ITT Pomona Electronics, 144–145", which indicates that there could be significant coverage. I do not have access to the book. No prejudice against undoing the redirect if it is determined that the book provides significant coverage about Pomona Electronics.

Not notable; this may be a novelty, but it doesn't gain significant coverage in reliable sources, unaffiliated with a specific manufacturer. Vettweiss-Froitzheim Dice Tower might also be non-notable. I found this article about a roman artifact, which touches on the Roman usage. Modern usage, on the other hand, is simply not documented in any reliable sources. wumbolo^^^ 19:44, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep Absurd nomination which proves itself wrong by citing a good source. It is easy to find more coverage such as Roman Artefacts and Society, "The use of a dice tower to prevent cheating by preventing handling of the throwing pieces is the subject of an epigram by Martial. Examples of the dice towers themselves are known from the archaeological record...". Andrew D. (talk) 22:00, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – while the article needs some sources, it is a significant topic and clearly notable. I found this scientific journal article that proves its lasting significance, and now I see that the same article is actually mentioned in the nomination statement as evidence that it's not "modern" enough!

Comment with fairness to the nominator, this one's actually really hard: I see a lot of hits talking about the "Roman Dice Tower" which is actually the Vettweiss-Froitzheim Dice Tower, but they are either not from reliable sources or just a photo as it's an interesting looking artifact. Most of the sources that I see that are good have already been mentioned in this AfD, along with [1]. Trying to add a source to the article isn't easy, either: I thought I could source the "dice tumbler" backgammon line most easily and no luck with that after about eight minutes. I don't think it's a delete off of WP:NEXIST due to the Roman history bit, but I can't argue for a keep at the moment, and it's far from an "absurd" nomination. SportingFlyertalk 15:06, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate your trying to be nice, and I agree we shouldn't bash deletion nominators all the time. The photo in the article is hugely powerful/convincing/interesting though and on its own it really makes the article a keeper, IMHO, irregardless of other sources. I am not sure if you allude to other photos too, but the one photo really is worth a thousand words. --Doncram (talk) 01:58, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but I don't see how you would write an encyclopedia article from one without any SYNTH. Very interesting it may be, but sources (via NEXIST if not actual substantial mentions) will be the best argument.

Actually an encyclopedia article has been written. And it has 3 nice pictures now. I don't see any problems with it.

Keep – literally any book about Dungeons & Dragons or any other similar role-playing game will talk about the screen. Bradv 20:09, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Dungeon Masters Screen also exists, but it is for a more specific topic than this article. Bradv 22:48, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I would be shocked if there weren't more references to this but my BEFORE for both "Gamemaster's screen" and "Game master's screen" produce only incidental mentions in a handful of questionably or narrowly RS sources. Dungeon Master's Screen, based on BEFORE, is more clearly keepable and I'm inclined to say this should be merged to that, except for the fact the latter is a proprietary name which leaves me torn. I'll wait to see what sources other !votes are able to produce that justify its inclusion before converting mine to either Keep or Delete. Chetsford (talk) 22:19, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a radiologist, referenced only to her own self-published résumé and a directly affiliated YouTube video. As always, every medical professional on earth is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because she exists — and no, even becoming president of a professional organization still isn't a notability freebie in the absence of quality sourcing for it. She needs to be the subject of reliable source coverage, in sources independent of her own self-created web presence, for an article to become warranted.

WP:BLP of a teen scientist, whose notability claim of winning a youth science award is not sourced well enough to make him permanently notable yet. The article features just 107 words of content, but is heavily reference bombed to 20 separate sources of which more than half are carpetbombing a single statement -- and the only references that are substantively about him are "local kid does stuff" human interest pieces in his hometown media, while every single extralocal reference is either a primary source that doesn't count as support for notability at all, or a glancing namecheck of his existence in an article that isn't about him. As always, every award that exists does not automatically guarantee its winners a free pass over WP:ANYBIO -- student awards are much less "inherently" notable than professional ones. There's also a possible conflict of interest here, as the subject's science project is related to robotics and neural networking while the creator's username was "Robobug11". Bearcat (talk) 18:35, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Note that there are other articles about EUCYS winners with few other notable accomplishments, such as Liam McCarthy and John D. O'Callaghan and Abdusalam Abubakar. Also, your assertion that the references in question are "human interest pieces in his hometown media" is false -- counterexamples are [3] and [4].
User:Fftgang (talk) 17:40, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Neither of those are notability-assisting sources; they're the corporate blogs of organizations, not notability-supporting media. The media coverage, at least the stuff that's actually about him as opposed to just mentioning his name in the process of being about something or someone else, is exclusively from the Sudbury Star, Northern Life and CBC Northern Ontario. Bearcat (talk) 00:13, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed several of the irrelevant sources, and added more substantial content about the project. User:Fftgang (talk) 20:12, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - It may be true that there are other scientists from this competition with enduring articles, but the existence of one is not a valid predication for the existence of another. They must all independently meet notability guidelines as per WP:BIO. At cursory glance, it appears that the other two articles you've linked are slightly more notable given their individual record-breaking or uniqueness by way of accomplishments, region, or school. As per the guidelines linked above, one such requirement that, if met, demands notability would be that "The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field." Being the students who afford notability to their entire school for having multiple winners, winning themselves multiple awards, or acquiring coverage in multiple publications for breaking records, notable backstories, etc. would all be distinct criteria for notability that it appears the subject of the article above does not meet.--Shibbolethink(♔♕) 20:53, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per OP. Subject sources demonstrate coverage in a very narrow set of events, but do not demonstrate notability to levels required by WP:BIO. Sounds like a promising kid, but he's got a few years ahead of him to demonstrate notability.--Shibbolethink(♔♕) 20:42, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Some relevant information has been added to the article: he is the youngest-ever CWSF best project winner. Does this change things at all? User:Greenobscurum 15:39, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - This doesn't change my vote. Being the youngest ever winner in an award that isn't all that notable in and of itself in the field does not create notability. The notability for the other winners is generated by coverage in third party sources. Even if this is true about the OP, it isn't apparently yet notable for reliable notable third-party independent sources to cover it extensively. At wikipedia, we don't decide notability often on our own. We rely on reliable sources to do it for us.--Shibbolethink(♔♕) 17:03, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, simply claiming that somebody was the youngest person ever to accomplish something that isn't inherently notable otherwise does not, in and of itself, make him special. If it could be shown to have garnered him enough nationalized media coverage to get him over WP:GNG, then that might make a difference — but if something isn't a notable achievement that would ordinarily get somebody into Wikipedia on its own, then being the youngest person in the list is not an instant pass to being more special than everybody else.

Completely unsourced article about a song, which basically just states that it exists without suggesting any claim of notability per WP:NSONG.

Weak Keep - I was mentioned above as "accepting" the article for publication. That is technically true but my involvement was via the New Pages Patrol in which we watch for obvious hoaxes, vandalism, policy violations, etc. but are encouraged to avoid unilateral judgements and to leave notability issues to the community. And this AfD is a good indication of that process. My assertion right now is that the article needs to be trimmed down to remove some obvious attempts at promotion and an over-reliance on blogs. But the singer is signed to a noteworthy label in his country and has a single that generated a little legitimate notice. So he has satisfied various requirements of WP:NMUSICIAN (arguably #1, 11, 12) but I would not object if other voters call for more verifiable evidence that he has progressed beyond merely being noticed by his country's promoters. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:30, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WP:NOTDICTIONARY / WP:NEO. There isn't even an agreement in sources as to what "Jewbook" is. There is a small smattering of sources referring to different closed groups of Jewish people on Facebook as "Jewbook". Converesely, in far-right speak this is “jewbook,” a derogatory term for Facebook popular with the far right.Slate (based, in part, on Zuckerberg's religion/ethnicity I believe). The disparate topics do not rise up to GNG (e.g. which Facebook groups (generally not Wiki notable) specifically do these refer to?), and redirect to Facebook based on a slur would be wrong.

Comment. Although I agree with your sentiment, I think we need a more solid deletion rational to go forward. I removed the most blatant non-sources in this edit. Some of the remaining sources are questionably reliable (e.g. cryptocurrency sites), which we could discuss. However, there is still a lot of coverage from RSes; probably enough to pass WP:GNG.

Delete - not every product or cryptocurrency that comes out is notable. You might think this cryptocurrency is notable for how fast it went defunct - actually, no, there are thousands of cryptos that have gone defunct, most fairly quickly. Maybe its notable because it used a celebrity's name without his permission and got sued - no, this garbage happens all the time. Maybe it's notable because of all the hype it got from the cryptocurrency press - nope, that's just promotion and that's all the cryptocurrency press do.

Keep - It might not be the most notable thing that's ever happened, but it did generate some bemused interest in tech circles while the story played out. I think there was enough notability that it's reasonable to keep around. It was covered in plenty of RS at the time. Warhorus (talk) 16:59, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.
Some cryptocurrencies have legal issues such as Coinye, an altcoin that used, without permission, rapper Kanye West as its logo. This altcoin has been compared to the popular Dogecoin. Upon hearing of the release of Coinye, originally called Coinye West, attorneys for Kanye West sent a cease and desist letter to the e-mail operator of Coinye, whose name remains unknown. The letter stated that Coinye was willful trademark infringement, unfair competition, cyberpiracy, and dilution and instructed Coinye to stop using the likeness and name of Kanye West. Kanye West filed a trademark lawsuit against the creators of the cryptocurrency "Coinye."
Launched and killed in January of 2014, Coinye was a cryptocurrency developed with the intention of making cryptocurrency accessible to non-programmers. Its creators said in interviews at the time they hoped it might be used to buy concert tickets; they also hoped their ingenuity would earn them West's blessing, even though they used his name and likeness without seeking his approval. "We chose to represent Kanye because he is and always has been a trendsetter, and he's always keeping things unique," one of the currency's developers said in an anonymous Noisey interview. "We'd love if Kanye named dropped Coinye. I think he's gonna love that there’s a currency named in his honor."
Turns out, Kanye West did not love that there was a currency named in his honor. In fact, West issued a cease and desist to the creators of Coinye, prompting them to change the currency's logo and open it up to trade a few days ahead of schedule. Coinye lived for less than a week; by January 14, 2014, its creators declared it dead, and three of them ended up settling with West in court.
But in an alternate universe where West had embraced rather than discarded Coinye, how much value might it have accumulated? While Coinye was never actually exchanged for dollars, some enthusiastic crypto investors apparently purchased some of the Yeezy-themed money with bitcoin. On January 8, 2014, two users on a bitcoin forum agreed to a deal: 125,000 Coinye for 0.1 bitcoin, or about $83 according to Coinbase's price chart.
This fun altcoin for the hip hop community existed for a short-lived seven months in 2014. Coinye West died when Kanye West sued the developers and won a copyright infringement lawsuit. Its developers tried to keep the coin alive as Coinye instead of Coinye West, but despite their efforts, nobody mines or trades this coin in 2017.
Price near launch: Supposedly it rose as high as $1,000 per coin, according to its developers.
Coinye West, a whimsical addition to the cryptocurrency craze, whose founders hitched its name and logo to the wagon of one of the biggest stars in hip-hop, has officially died. In documents filed July 22 in New York, a U.S. District Court declared Kanye West the victor over most of Coinye's makers, some of them John-and-Jane Does, by default because they never bothered to respond to his complaints.
The parody electronic currency was announced in January but quickly shut down after West filed a cease-and-desist order and sued the large group of defendants for unspecified damages. The lawsuit complained that the defendants "usurped West's name and likeness for the sole purpose of propping up the perceived 'value' of the defendants' 'digital coin mine' and its 'crypto currency.'"
The newest iteration, CoinYe West, is evident of how the lunacy can stretch.
Launching January 11 with the catchphrase “WE AIN'T MININ', WE PICKIN'”, the system promises “no premine, no screwed up fake "fair" launches, shyster devs, muted channels, and f**ked up wallets”. Just like Kanye West, CoinYe West won’t be taking any shit.
Alongside the website design, there are some more technical nods to Kanye’s supposed illuminati connections. The maximum number of coins that can ever be mined in the currency is 66,666,666,666.
Lawyers for Kanye West filed cease-and-desist papers against the seven anonymous coders behind Coinye West, a virtual currency that went from chatroom joke to Internet sensation last week.
The legal document, dated Jan. 6, includes an image of Coinye -- a cartoon representation of West on a gold medallion. West’s lawyer argues trademark infringement.
...
Hoping to keep pace with the self-assured, brash West, the techies aren't backing down. Instead, they are moving up Coinye’s release date to as early as Tuesday night. Looking for surer footing, they changed the name of the currency from Coinye West to just “Coinye” and moved their website from a .com domain name to one registered in India.

WP:GNG For someone who is referred to as “prominent”, there is a neglible amount of coverage about her to establish an article (don’t get mad at me when I say it’s because of her immigration status that most facts can’t be verified.) Washington Post source is supposed to be about her yet only mentions her a few times and in the headline they only refer to her as staffer; the article is more related to Bernie Sanders. CNN article article also doesn’t even name her in headline and article is more about her mother. There is no independent coverage to establish notability. Trillfendi (talk) 05:27, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep She is quoted as an activist in several articles not referenced here, including the Chicago Tribune in 2016 [12] and 2017 [13], the Austin-American Statesman in 2017 [14], and the Los Angeles Times in 2018 [15]. RebeccaGreen (talk) 06:43, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment 2018 LA Times: she is only mentioned in one sentence; the article is not about her at all. Basically media keep quoting her as an activist but no independent sources expand on that, especially without focusing on her mother or employer. Chicago Tribune article doesn’t even include her name in the headline (for an article that supposed to highlight her) and the author has a personal connection to her. Statesman’s headline calls her DACA recipient, not her name, but the article itself gave a 404 error. Anyone can call her an activist but being a DREAMer is not notability. If it was there would be 3.6 million new articles.Trillfendi (talk) 13:05, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I've added more sources to the article. She first went "viral" in 2013. However, there is good coverage of her over time after that, especially in the Nation. Passes GNG. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:54, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Still, to be honest, these rely on her circumstances rather than actual notability of herself for her career. I have yet to see a source actually independently (like I said before, one of those sources had a personal connection to her) delve into her activism without including her mother in it (she’s not a teenager anymore), politicians she’s worked for, or the Dream Act. Prime examples: "Arizona Immigration Activist Hired to Work for Bernie Sanders Campaign", “. "Illegal immigrant students' hopes dashed with DREAM Act's failure in U.S", "Agents take mother of immigration activist in night home raid", "Immigrants Arrested Near Capitol During DACA Protest", and "Sanders-founded group likely to part with staffer who tweeted about 'illegal immigrants'". HuffPost was the only one to call her by her name. What do we even know about her activism besides being personally affected by DACA? Can someone find sources on that? (Emma González, for example, also went viral but she has significant coverage (not passing mentions or inherited notability) from reliable sources about her work. They even put her name in headlines in articles that are supposed to be about her.) Trillfendi (talk) 20:16, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As noted, the subject passes GNG. In addition to the above reasons to keep, Rahul is a published academic researcher and is involved in a program promoting STEM in the community (a very contemporary issue), which adds notability not previously discussed.

Jytdog (talk) 02:06, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BLP1E states that "We generally should avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met". None of these conditions is met and so WP:BLP1E does not apply. Q.E.D. Andrew D. (talk) 09:06, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That one is save-able and you should strike it. Wow. Jytdog (talk) 11:17, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
As the point has not been grasped, let's spell it out in more detail. The three conditions specified by WP:BLP1E are:
"If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event." That's debatable because a season of Bake Off consists of multiple events – the weekly episodes. And there are now other events such as this engineering event.
"If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual." The subject is no longer low-profile, being promoted as a correspondent for a national newspaper and being prominent in public events.
"If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented." Each season of Bake Off is a significant spectacle in the UK, attracting much coverage and comment. The role of the winner is obviously substantial and well-documented.
So three conditions and all of them indicate that it is appropriate that we should have an article for the subject. Q.E.D. Andrew D. (talk) 11:33, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to The Great British Bake Off. This is indeed a WP:BIO1E case. For now significant coverage has only been during a short time period and only in the context of the The Great British Bake Off show, and including brief info about him in that article and in The Great British Bake Off (series 9) would be sufficient. If there is still significant coverage of him 9 months or so from now, a separate article may be appropriate then. Nsk92 (talk) 10:21, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BIO1E states that "If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate." So, that guideline supports keeping the page, not suppressing it. Andrew D. (talk) 11:31, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't a Lee Harvey Oswald type situation. The underlying topic, The Great British Bake Off, is a cooking contest TV show. Lots of game shows on TV, they come and they go, not something that strikes me as "highly significant". The subject of this AfD was a contestant on this show and the winner of a particular season. Again, I don't see anything particularly earth shattering about that. There is a winner every season that the show is on, these winners also come and go. If something particularly unusual happens and a specific contestant has a particularly high impact on the show and transforms it in some significant way, there might be something to talk about. But I don't see that here. Nsk92 (talk) 00:15, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Putting this up together with World Socialist Web Site. Not seeing the notability. Out of 3 references provided in the article, two are from his own website, and in the third one this person is only mentioned in passing. Openlydialectic (talk) 07:02, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Since the nomination appears to assess only sources that are in the article, keep in mind that "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article" (WP:N). A quick search finds New York Times coverage of his open letter to Google [23], as well as multiple reviews of multiple books (e.g. reviews of In Defense of Leon Trotsky include Gaido, Daniel. The Russian Review Vol. 70, Iss. 2 (Apr 2011): 349; Cox, John K, PhD. International Social Science Review Vol. 87, Iss. 1/2 (2012): 63-65; and Patenaude, Bertrand M. The American Historical Review Vol. 116, Iss. 3, (Jun 2011): 900.; see also [24][25]). Even without going through the additional book review and news search hits, it looks like a WP:AUTHOR#3 pass as someone who "has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work" that has been the subject "of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews". Bakazaka (talk) 09:23, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Dunno. the google thing isn't SIGCOV. I am finding the same reviews of In Defense of Leon Trotsky on JSTOR, and I see the reviews - one each of 2 other books - are these sufficient? the many Davids North in the world makes searching a time-consuming task. Perhaps other editors will find more.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:36, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I am troubled by the INDEPENDENT question. His books are published by Mehring Books, the publisher of the International Committee of the Fourth International, Labor Publications, Arbeiterpresse and International Worker Books, and reviewed on small socialist websites. We really need to show that he can be independently sourced.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:36, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For example. His 1988 book The Heritage We Defend is linked to Published by the International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI), which features North's Preface to the thirtieth anniversary edition of The Heritage We Defend. So I ran a Proquest archive search on the book, and came up with only a single item: Tribute to Late Comrade Piyaseeli Wijegunasinghe Daily Mirror; Colombo [Colombo]11 Sep 2010. The item is an announcement by the Socialist Equality Party (SEP) of the death of Comrade Piyaseeli Wijegunasinghe, who "traslated... The Heritage We Defend written by David North, national secretary of the SEP in the US." Having a book translated is a sign of notability, but the source, an SEP press release, is probably not INDEPENDENT, even though it is the SEP in Sri Lanka. I'll revisit this, but it's not as simple as that long list of books makes it appear. E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:52, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
In addition to wanting to find more reviews of his books, there is the paucity of citation of his work in gScholar. Here is a gScholar search on David + North + trotsky. [26] unimpressive. So I tried David + North + marcism [27], David + North + socialist [28]. I'll revisit and hope that someone can do better.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:12, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
[https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/10.5699/slaveasteurorev2.90.3.0561.pdf?refreqid=excelsior%3Acafdaa26a604396692fb88525164790d"Most ardently, the American writer David North, in a series of online publications and public lectures, collected and published in the volume, In Defense of Leon Trotsky, tries to restore the image of Trotsky as the main opponent of Stalinism and an advocate of a more democratic version of socialism. North argues from an openly partisan perspective and his language is highly combative and, unfortunately, often aggressive... He believes that the authors purposefully discredited Trotsky and falsified his legacy as a revolutionary leader and thinker. North’s accusations, however, are not sufficiently substantiated."
These 3 are the only scholarly reviews, indeed, they seem to be the only reviews of this, his most widely reviewed work, and they show that the Stalin-Trotsky is still raging inside a small, walled garden somewhere in cyberspace. What I am not finding is evidence that In Defence of Leon Trotsky or anything else North wrote is widely cited. Searches turn up little beyond an occassional speaking gigs reported in an undergraduate newspaper. Nor is there WP:SIGCOV of North and his career. For all of these reasons, I suggest...
Keep -- Essentially per Bakazaka and RebeccaGreen. There's more than enough coverage of the guy's books for a pass of AUTHOR, and some coverage of his speeches, e.g. Michigan Daily as well. The scholarly reviews of his bio of Trotsky are more than enough for me. 192.160.216.52 (talk) 18:38, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The Michigan Daily is an undergraduate newspaper. Undergraduate papers can be reliable on facts, but they don't contribute much if anything towards establishing notability. E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:48, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The University of Michigan has more than 45,000 students. It's bigger than most cities in America. The paper is higher quality than most daily papers. It's not Podunk U. Weekly or something. Is your theory that Undergraduate papers don't contribute to notability based on anything other than your preferences? 192.160.216.52 (talk) 21:01, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is that there are not enough sources to pass WP:ANYBIO or WP:AUTHOR. Nor does his leadership of a very, very small political party carry him past WP:POLITICIAN. We need to find WP:SIGCOV.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:12, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as an easy pass of WP:AUTHOR#3. As the Critical Sociology review of a different North book (linked above the wall of text) explains, North's writings have impact on more mainstream discussions despite being grounded in smaller battles within his political community, which is why his work is reviewed and discussed in, for example, the American Historical Review (reference above) and the Journal of Historical Sociology (review essay on yet another book linked above). Bakazaka (talk) 18:55, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Evidence that "North's writings have impact on more mainstream discussions" is precisely what I am not seeing. Yes, he has gotten reviews. What I would like to see it that the books are cited by others, whether by scholars, popular writers, or journalists. I can always be persuaded to change mu opinion at AfD. But WP:HEYMANN I need to see sources more persuasive than a handful of book reviews (some of which are harshly dismissive of the value of his work,) coupled with the lack of WP:SIGCOV in sources beyond a couple of undergrad newspapers and sources inside the Walled garden Trotskyite socialism.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:48, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The actual notability guideline WP:AUTHOR#3 is easily met. Nothing in the WP:AUTHOR guideline requires scholarly citations, nor does the guideline specify that reviews have to be approving (or that one's work being "well-known" precludes being notoriously disliked). No one is obligated to satisfy you.Bakazaka (talk) 21:04, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
How so? If you mean that the book with 3 reviews, In Defense of Leon Trotsky, is notable, you could make an argument for merge/redirect this page to that title. Although it has hardly been cited at all in all the years since publication [29] I suggested a merge to his political party, but if you prefer the book, you can propose it.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:24, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Attempting due diligence, I looked at the reviews of 2 other North books discussed above, both reviews are positive: [30], and [31] are positive. However, gScholar shows only 4 citations of The Russian Revolution and the Unfinished Twentieth Century (almost no impact,) and The Frankfurt School, Postmodernism and the Politics of the Pseudo-Left: A Marxist Critique got only 2 hits in gScholar, one is to this review, and the other is to a bibliography. So far, the book has had impact at all. It has been only 3-4 years since publication, but that is enough time in political and intellectual history for a even a book making a novel or important argument, or presenting new evidence to have multiple book and journal citations. Others of his books have sunk without even y a single review. He may be a notable or impactful author, but we need sources to prove it.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:24, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I would argue Keep. North is listed as chairman of the international editorial board for the World Socialist Web Site, and has written many articles for that site, and a great number of books that are published with what appears to be their US-affiliated publisher, Mehring Books. Last year North's photo was printed in the New York Times when they ran a story on his allegation that Google's changed search algorithms lower traffic to left wing news services [32]. But looking at academic sources briefly, I see that there are many references to North's work, particularly regarding either 20th and 21st century socialism, or Trotsky. Most of those references are in passing, but the authors appear to take North seriously, especially in the controversy surrounding Robert Service's Trotsky Biography. And there are three academic reviews that are dedicated to North's books.
There is this 2017 Review Essay [33] in the Journal of Historical Sociology (30:86-91) by Charles Thorpe, Associate Professor in Sociology at UCSD. Thorpe devotes two pages to North’s book The Unfinished Twentieth Century, beginning, "It is therefore illuminating to read Radical Intellectuals alongside a book on political and intellectual history by the AmericanTrotskyist David North, who has vigorously defended the life and legacy of Leon Trotsky precisely as the Marxist alternative to Stalin.” Thorpe reviews the arguments of the book and ultimates concludes the review by agreeing with the North's thesis: "The left today would like to leave the Soviet Union behind as a failed project and to believe that its collapse freed them from the debates, concepts, and historical experiences of twentieth‐century Marxism. The Unfinished Twentieth Century makes a powerful case that, to paraphrase Faulkner, these debates and experiences are not dead; they're not even past."
Here is another 2017 book review [34] by Emanuele Saccarelli, Professor of Political Science also at UCSD, published in the journal Critical Sociology (43(4-5):799-802. Saccarelli writes about North's book "The Frankfurt School, Postmodernism and the Politics of the Pseudo-Left: A Marxist Critique," and describes the book favorably as "a valuable contribution to a broad range of important theoretical and political questions located in and around Marxism – with the additional merit of identifying precisely where that boundary lies." Saccarelli also writes what might be useful in content for this bio: "North is the longstanding leader of the Socialist Equality Party (SEP), as well as a member of the editorial board of its well-known affiliated online publication, the World Socialist Web Site." There's a lot more in that review but I'll probably add some of it to the bio directly rather than cluttering this page.
Here's one more lengthy treatment of North's book "In Defense of Leon Trotsky" by Bertrand Patenaude, Research Fellow at the Hoover Institute at Stanford. The review is published in the American Historical Review, June 2011, pages 900-902. "North is an American Trotskyist whose book collects his review essays of Service's volume and of earlier biographies of Trotsky by Ian Thatcher and Geoffrey Swain. (He does not mention my 2009 book, Trotsky: Downfall of a Revolutionary.) Given North’s Trotskyism, he might reasonably be suspected of hyperbole in his brief against Service. But a careful examination of North’s book shows his criticism of Service to be exactly what Trotsky scholar Baruch Knei-Paz, in a blurb on the back cover, says it is: 'detailed, meticulous, well-argued and devastating.'" In every paragraph through the whole review, Patenaude supports North’s book.
I think given's North's association with the WSWS, his prolific authorship, and the combination of articles on his work in scholarship and scholarly references to his work, this bio should stay. -Darouet (talk) 05:02, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I've done a bit of editing to add some third party and reliable sources describing some of North's recent political and academic work. Cheers, -Darouet (talk) 05:54, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP independent books describe him as notable trotskyite. A big frog in a pond, I say... - üser:Altenmann >t 05:08, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The sources that Bakazaka brought forward are sufficient to show notability. This is not a claim under WP:ACADEMIC so E.M.Gregory's concerns about how often his books are cited on Google Scholar are completely misplaced. He is the head of a political party, albeit a tiny one, and a Trotskyist activist for at least 40 years. Wikipedia ought to have biographies of the heads of political parties, even smaller ones.

Insufficiently sourced to demonstrate notability.

Delete. In this diff, the article creator claims that this has charted on a Billboard chart, but this is not mentioned in the citation given.

Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a football manager who fails WP:GNG and who has not managed a club in a fully pro league.

Comment if we can confirm he played for Leoben or Kapfenberg, I believe the 2.Bundesliga is a fully professional league. As it stands, only sourced to transfermarkt, no prose, has to go. SportingFlyertalk 14:58, 17 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There's nothing contentious in the article as it stands, all the facts are readily verifiable, we just need to know if he also played in a FPL. If that's the case, it doesn't need to go, it needs to be improved per WP:IMPERFECT. He seems to speak to the media a lot for an assistant coach, so he might even pass WP:GNG. Jack N.

I did a GNG search for him with Dinamo and only got name-drops, no significant coverage in Croatian media.

Comment Transfermarkt seems to suggest he played around 50 times in the 2.Liga, which is a fully professional league. However, it's also Transfermarkt.

Article on a corporation has had zero (0) sources for the preceding 13 years.
A standard BEFORE (JSTOR, newspapers.com, Google Books, Google News) finds no references to the company except a one-word, passing mention on fanzine called "poltergeist.pl" [37]. Also, its address appears in a wholesaler directory catalog.
