Not enough reliable sources discuss the subject. Ardenter (talk) 23:42, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Does 'only public research university in the country' ring a bell? Literally anything fitting that description will have sufficient coverage. Like here, or here, or here, or here, or here...I didn't even bother to look at scholarly results. Vaticidalprophet 01:14, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Are those reliable? The first is a review. The second is a passing reference, which doesn't meet notability guidelines. The last two are from a hotel. The third is the only reliable source, That's not multiple reliable secondary sources. Ardenter (talk) 04:23, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is also ISBN9781857434583 page 1383. There are not the hundreds of years of history to be found documented here, as is the case for a lot of universities, though. But the OECD does document this institution in depth, giving it four pages discussing its mission and faculties, with some additional commentary, in chapter 4 of ISBN9789264017795 pages 150 et seq.. Pretty much none of that is in the article at hand, so there seems to be scope to expand this stub. Uncle G (talk) 05:08, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that 9789264017795 counts as a reliable source, as its a directory. As far as I can tell 9781857434583 is, but it's not in depth enough to make an article. Despite 9781857434583, I still think it doesn't have enough sources to be notable. Ardenter (talk) 02:26, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
An OECD review of Luxembourg innovation policy, covering this instutition in detail and others in the context of how they fit into that, is not a directory in any shape or form. You are quite obviously reaching, perhaps because the source is in French and you did not actually read it and plucked a plausible sounding reason from thin air. Uncle G (talk) 09:49, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing about being a directory that makes a source reliable or not. Some directories are reliable (such as this one), some are unreliable and some are in between. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:45, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't talking about reliability as a standard when I discounted X, I was referring to it being a trivial mention. "Examples of trivial coverage that do not count toward meeting the significant coverage requirement... inclusion in collections that have indiscriminate inclusion criteria (i.e. attempt to include every existing item instead of selecting the best, most notable examples), such as databases, archives, directories, dictionaries, bibliographies, certain almanacs." - Notability (Organizations and Companies)Ardenter (talk) 01:26, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Anyone can read that you said "I don't think that [...] counts as a reliable source, as its a directory". How can you now claim that you weren't taking about reliability when it's there in black and white? How can we have a proper discussion when you deny writing what everyone can see that you wrote? Phil Bridger (talk) 17:07, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I was using "reliable source" as shorthand for writing "significant independent reliable source"? Ardenter (talk) 03:19, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, you were discounting something based upon its title rather than actually reading that source too, which is an overview of the higher education system in Luxembourg that talks about the Université de Luxembourg. Uncle G (talk) 09:28, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: per above. Atchom (talk) 03:00, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, per the significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, as included in this discussion and the article. Clearly passes WP:GNG. SailingInABathTub (talk) 08:49, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Can you show those reliable sources? I read the article thoroughly, most citations were from the university itself or from a top universities list, which is not reliable. Only one of the articles posted here would be counted as a reliable source per Wikipedia's policies. Ardenter (talk) 17:55, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
But none of those count as sources. Sources need to be more than a passing mention. Most were about a project the university was involved in, and the ones that did mention it did not go into significant detail. None meet the guidelines for reliable sources. Ardenter (talk) 02:18, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
They are definitely reliable sources. Please explain how the RTL Today sources that are already cited in the article, that have the name of the University in the title, and only discuss the university are not significant coverage? SailingInABathTub (talk) 04:42, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Lets take a look at the first five titles from that link. "Minister of Education Claude Meisch to hold press conference at 2 pm". "How did senior citizens cope with the first months of the pandemic?" "Study confirms that French remains the most required language in Luxembourg". "Scientific topics made accessible in new comic book". "Student for One Day" initiative held in Luxembourg this year". Are these covering the university itself, which is required for significant coverage? Ardenter (talk) 13:17, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, but can you tell me how I was strawmanning you? You said these articles were reliable sources with significant coverage, so I gave a sample of them to demonstrate my point that they were only trivial mentions. Ardenter (talk) 13:59, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
1. You said "I read the article thoroughly, most citations were from the university itself or from a top universities list, which is not reliable." - You ignored all of the reliable sources in the article.
2. You said "Most were about a project the university was involved in, and the ones that did mention it did not go into significant detail." - You ignored the fact that there are nearly two hundred University of Luxembourg articles on that site - many of which do have significant coverage.
3. I referred you to the sources in the article itself that contained significant coverage (now copied here).[1][2][3][4][5] You ignored them again, and instead picked out five that did not contain significant coverage.
3 - University itself. Not independent, does not meet standards.
4 - University itself. Not independent, does not meet standards.
5 - University itself. Not independent, does not meet standards.
6 - RTL. I'll talk about this later.
7 - RTL. I'll talk about this later.
8 - RTL. I'll talk about this later.
9 - RTL. I'll talk about this later.
10 - RTL. I'll talk about this later.
11 - RTL. I'll talk about this later.
12 - RTL. I'll talk about this later.
13 - University itself. Not independent, does not meet standards.
14 - Rankings. Trivial mention, does not meet standards.
15 - Rankings. Trivial mention, does not meet standards.
16 - Rankings. Trivial mention, does not meet standards.
17 - Rankings. Trivial mention, does not meet standards.
18 - Rankings. Trivial mention, does not meet standards.
19 - RTL article that does nothing more than say the university was high on these lists. Does not meet standards.
20 - Rankings. Trivial mention, does not meet standards.
21 - RTL article that does nothing more than say the university was high on these lists. Does not meet standards.
22 - Rankings. Trivial mention, does not meet standards.
23 - University itself. Not independent, does not meet standards.
24 - Article about a random person who happened to be affiliated with the university. Does not meet standards.
None of these demonstrate reliability.
Secondly, you said there are two hundred articles about the university on RTL. But that is completely irrelevant if they are trivial. The number of sources does not matter. I read all the pages, and I couldn't find anything that demonstrated notability.
Thirdly, I did not "pick out" sources without significant coverage. Those were the first five articles from that search. You also said I ignored notable articles I sent you, but all you did was give me a link that referred me to a sea of articles that met no guidelines. If you wanted me to see the notable articles, tell me their names.
Lastly, all the RTL Luxembourg articles.
The notability rules for organizations and corporations explicitly state:
"The depth of coverage of the subject by the source must be considered. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject is not sufficient to establish notability. Deep or significant coverage provides an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization. Such coverage provides an organization with a level of attention that extends well beyond brief mentions and routine announcements, and makes it possible to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub about the organization."
Sources 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 are all short articles about the university's COVID-19 restrictions. That does not meet notability requirements. It might be fine for an article about COVID-19 response in Luxembourg, but it does not justify an article about the University of Luxembourg itself.
The last one that can be justified is 2, a "Knowledge Bite" about higher education in Luxembourg. But it does not meet those requirements still. It gives basic information about the university from its website and gives a one sentence review. That does not make "it possible to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub about the organization."
… or read the sources cited in this discussion, or indeed do any research at all yourself, in accordance with Wikipedia:Deletion policy? Thorough efforts to find sources must have failed, which you cannot honestly say if you made no effort at all. Uncle G (talk) 20:26, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To counter this, please read WP:COMMONSENSE and WP:IAR! We are building an encyclopaedia to aid knowledge, and being pedantic and "rules"-obsessed does not help that project. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:03, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
What I feel is common sense is removing a poor article which has too little reliable sources to demonstrate its significance or make the article verifiable. Ardenter (talk) 13:49, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, that is not common sense. Notability and verifiability are both attributes of article subjects, rather than of the current form of articles. Please just stop arguing with everyone and look for independent reliable sources yourself, without pre-judging any sources found to necessarily fail our requirements as you have done so far. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:42, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I did look for independed reliable sources before submitting the AFD and I have prejudged no sources. Ardenter (talk) 23:52, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Obviously notable per the "keeps" above, but it would be nice if people recognised that notability is just as obvious for an equivalent university in Africa, Asia or South America. Phil Bridger (talk) 16:14, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Can you please find specific articles that meet source requirements? Most of the RTL Tele Letzebuerg articles do not meet requirements for significant coverage. Ardenter (talk) 02:22, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ardenteer, Following the advice of WP:THREE, the three sources below meet GNG requirements. Enjoy! Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 08:23, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe the first, but the second is a three paragraph long article that covers some basic events. I do not think that is enough for significant, reliable coverage. The third meets standards even less, as it mentions the university for less than a third of one sentence. Ardenter (talk) 13:21, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep - that this is the only public research university in Luxembourg surely makes it notable. Rollo August (talk) 09:21, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It does not. No organization is notable by default. Ardenter (talk) 13:22, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is significant coverage in multiple reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject
Keep This is a disruptive nomination. There is plenty of coverage in multiple independent sources, and even if there werent it's important for the encyclopedia to cover universities in small countries and that outweighs other considerations. Rathfelder (talk) 22:54, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Three things. Firstly, how is it disruptive? Secondly, I do not believe there has been plenty of coverage. And thirdly, this discussion is about whether the university deserves its own article. If you think it's important to education in Luxembourg, then add it to Education in Luxembourg. Ardenter (talk) 00:47, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Some disagreements with your source analysis:
14/17 and 18 are listed as passing the trivial mention, but by Wikipedia policies they should not pass. Examples of trivial mentions in Notability (Organizations and Companies) state "inclusion in lists of similar organizations, particularly in 'best of', 'top 100', 'fastest growing' or similar lists," and "inclusion in collections that have indiscriminate inclusion criteria (i.e. attempt to include every existing item instead of selecting the best, most notable examples), such as databases, archives, directories, dictionaries, bibliographies, certain almanacs." THE University Rankings and US News & World Report meet both criteria, as such is not a reliable source.
19 is a bit more of a grey area, but I think it is definitively not significant coverage. All it discusses is the review scores other resources have given the university, and not the university itself. It also is little more than a parrot of trivial mentions.
Another thing which applies to both is the counting of "simple listings or compilations, such as... of statistical data." Therefore, 14/17, 18, and 19 are all trivial.
Now, I'm going to bring something up that's important to notability.
"'Source' on Wikipedia can refer to the work itself, the author of the work, and/or the publisher of the work. For notability purposes, sources must be unrelated to each other to be "multiple". A story from a single news organization (such as AP) reprinted in multiple newspapers (say, in the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, and the Orlando Sentinel) is still one source (one newspaper article). If multiple journalists at multiple newspapers separately and independently write about the same subject, then each of these unrelated articles should be considered separate sources, even if they are writing about the same event or "story". A series of articles by the same journalist is still treated as one source (one person). The appearance of different articles in the same newspaper is still one source (one publisher). Similarly, a series of books by the same author is one source."
All of the RTL articles would be only one source. That's not to mention that they cover one aspect of the university's policy, which (though debatable) is not enough to establish the university as notable. Based on established, clear-cut Wikipedia policy, there is only one counting source of the twenty.
Also, quick question, how do you believe consensus has been reached? The consensus policy states that "When agreement cannot be reached through editing alone, the consensus-forming process becomes more explicit: editors open a section on the associated talk page and try to work out the dispute through discussion. Here editors try to persuade others, using reasons based in policy, sources, and common sense". We're still discussing, so I don't see how this has been reached. Ardenter (talk) 01:29, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Still "inclusion in collections that have indiscriminate inclusion criteria (i.e. attempt to include every existing item instead of selecting the best, most notable examples), such as databases, archives, directories, dictionaries, bibliographies, certain almanacs." Ardenter (talk) 07:10, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must satisfy either this guideline (WP:ORG) or the general notability guideline, or both. For-profit educational organizations and institutions are considered commercial organizations and must satisfy those criteria.
Here's the description of the WP:GNG notability requirement for significant coverage: Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.
Don't forget the analysis of multilingualism at this institution on pages 112–113 of ISBN9781847699381. ☺ Uncle G (talk) 09:45, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Ardenter: Please consider the amount of editors' time that has been wasted by this vexatious nomination. The nomination should be strong enough to stand, without multiple explanations. One bite at the cherry should be enough. Other editors may like to consider how our rubric may be strengthened to prevent this massive misunderstanding. ClemRutter (talk) 09:22, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as subject has received substantial non-trivial coverage, thus satisfying GNG requirements. WP:AVALANCHE applies as well. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 20:22, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A Coat of arms of Catalonia never existed per se. There was a coat of arms of the king of Aragon, already covered in another page, and there is a modern Seal of the Generalitat de Catalunya, already covered in a third page. The coat of arms of the king of Aragon was, as all medieval symbols, exclusive of the king and his lineage. The different territories ruled by this king, of which Catalonia was just one, had no special symbol back then. In the 19th century, Catalan nationalists adopted the colours of the coat of arms, the so-called four bars, as symbolic of Catalonia, and it has become ubiquitous ever since for all things related to Catalonia and even for the Catalan language, including the aforementioned Seal of the Generalitat. However, the mere existence of a page for the Coat of arms of Catalonia implies that the particular link between the heraldry and Catalonia already existed before the 19th century, and that is simply false. Jotamar (talk) 21:21, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Indeed, this article is essentially a duplicate, almost word for word, of the Coat of arms of the Crown of Aragon, which is used de facto as the coat of arms of Catalonia. Unlike other autonomous communities, Catalonia does not have an official coat of arms, since it is not mentioned in its Statute of Autonomy or any other law. As you mention, the Generalitat does have its own emblem. I suggest moving any content which is not duplicated to the article on the Coat of arms of the Crown of Aragon.

Stalin's Soviet Elections (1936-1950) and Impact[edit]
Comment The article on Election in hte Soviet Union could indeed cover the topic, but it's a very brief stub. Some material here could be merged as a start as some of it is documented outside WP , but even better someone could write an actual article. There are abundant references available in English ()and of course other languages) DGG ( talk ) 22:52, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I genuinely struggle to find a single sentence that is useful; the content is written at a standard lower than my expectations of a junior high school student (and I attended high school in the southern USA for a period). In addition to the USSR elections article, there are also individual articles for the 1937, 1946 and 1950 elections. *However,* there is RS historical literature on elections and the Stalin period (some examples[1][2][3][4]), so the topic itself is notable, but even the title of this article is entirely inappropriate.
I've never previously recommended a TNT before at AfD...but there's always a first time for everything. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 06:29, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If it's necessary to keep it for the student to be marked, it can be move to draftspace or back to their userspace. As per Goldsztajn's assessment, the article is awful and we should not be keeping it in mainspace just so someone can get graded on it. Number57 11:59, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, the article in question is not awful. It explains the topic reasonably clearly in sections starting with the 1936 constitution, details of the voting process and the results of the three elections. It's better than the nomination's preferred alternative Elections in the Soviet Union. It's the nomination which is awful because it does not provide a policy-based reason to delete. My !vote stands. Andrew🐉(talk) 12:50, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Elections in the Soviet Union, with corrections. Having a separate page for "Stalin's elections" is hardly justifiable because Soviet elections after Stalin were not very much different, although yes, there are sources on Soviet elections specifically for this period. I do not think the deletion would be proper because the provided info is basically correct, but, yes, the page was apparently written by a student. My very best wishes (talk) 17:37, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: per nom, an essay of 90% unreliable sources. No idea why some editors think that just because it was perhaps made for educational reasons it should be kept. Calling nominating an Article for deletion as disruptive editing because it bites in their opinion new Editors is absolute nonsense. CommanderWaterford (talk) 21:29, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to fix it, but yes, this content can only be merged to another page. I moved a part of the content. Now this page should be made a redrect. My very best wishes (talk) 19:37, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Except for the fact that the title violates multiple elements of WP:TITLE, eg NDESC (how are these elections in the possessive ownership of Stalin?), LOWERCASE, PRECISION (impact of what? on whom? what of Stalin's <sic> 1931 election?) etc. --Goldsztajn (talk) 11:23, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The content has already been merged to Elections in the Soviet Union by My very best wishes. The article under discussion is now a WP:REDUNDANTFORK with a title that is not appropriate for a Wikipedia article or even a redirect (not a plausible search term, see also Goldsztajn's comment above). Attribution for copyright purposes per WP:Copying within Wikipedia could trivially be done by listing the authors in a dummy edit over at Elections in the Soviet Union, so there is no need to retain the edit history here. To wit:
The rest of the edits were things that did not get merged and which therefore do not need to be attributed, if I understand things correctly.
Deleting the article without leaving a redirect (whether the closer calls this "delete" or "merge") should not be controversial. TompaDompa (talk) 23:31, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please review what is and is not routine coverage in sports. Neither this nor this are considered routine coverage per relevant guidelines.

This makes these examples non-routine coverage in both cases, because the game-winning shot in a nationally televised game earned a feature article for the event beyond a mere box score or statistics, and he later additionally gained a feature article solely about himself and his life (granted, after this nomination began).

Redirect An extremely detailed page for an election for a specific cause with only 450,000 eligible voters (pretty low by Indian standards). The specific issue is not notable for a stand alone page, though it gets domain specific media coverage. Roller26 (talk) 14:51, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Stub article apparently based entirely on a press release. Notability (or lack of it)- no evidence that this specific printer is especially notable in its own right (we don't tend to have individual articles for other manufacturers' printers either).
Despite having been created over 15 years ago, the core article remains almost identical to the original stub- nothing of note has been added since then, and likely never will.
(There are quite a few subsequent edits, but virtually all are administrative, or minor changes like corrections or adding links).

A corporate press release predicting the future is both a biased and non-factual basis for an article. Surely, I thought, there is proper independent documentation talking about this subject in the past tense, as it has been 17 years since the projected release date. After some research, it appears that there is not. I couldn't find anything to even use for a good stub on this, let alone one with scope for expansion. Book mentions turned out to be "printing process B is used in printers M, N, O, and P". There's no indication of computer magazine articles, let alone in-depth ones. And that seems to be true of any Kodak printer, excluding obvious recycled press releases. This is non-notable as clearly shown by it not having been been noted in its lifetime or since. Delete.

Just like most London Buses routes, this is another run of the mill bus route with nothing overly notable nor spectacular. Only ounce of notability is that it is a recently discontinued route. Ajf773 (talk) 10:34, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Like most London bus topics, this is notable per WP:GNG, as London buses are historic and well-documented. The nomination is based upon WP:MILL which is neither policy nor guideline. It's just an essay which means that it has "no official status, and do not speak for the Wikipedia community". Per WP:CENSOR and WP:NOTPAPER, we do not delete pages for this reason. Andrew🐉(talk) 11:44, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Most London bus routes are not notable, and those that two are covered thoroughly using independent secondary sources. You have not provided anything additional to what exists in the article to validate notability for this particular route. Ajf773 (talk) 08:51, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:CENSOR applies to controversial topics. Is a London bus route controversial? WP:NOTPAPER also explicitly states "Consequently, this policy is not a free pass for inclusion: articles must abide by the appropriate content policies, particularly those covered in the five pillars." Also, notability guidelines state notability is not inherited. Being a part of something notable does not make something else notable. This is a discussion not for the London bus, but this specific bus route. Ardenter (talk) 18:06, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, merge or redirect. Just like with every other nomination of this type, there is never a good reason to delete an article about a verifiable bus route in a major city. If it isn't notable enough for a standalone article (which some bus routes are) then it should be merged or redirected to an appropriate higher-level article. Thryduulf (talk) 10:53, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If the reasons are that the route is not notable, as are most bus routes in a major city (including this), then delete is plausible. You mentioned an alternative is to either merge or redirect - to where? Ajf773 (talk) 08:38, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The point is that if some bus routes in London are notable (which they are), the bus network as a whole is notable (which it is) and there exists a list of bus routes in London (which there does) then all the bus routes in London are likely search terms and so the title should not be a redlink meaning that deletion is off the table. WP:ATD also strongly favours merging and redirecting over deletion in situations like this. List of bus routes in London is the blindingly obvious target, but there may be others. Thryduulf (talk) 10:08, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's a discontinued route. If it's not notable there is no requirement to mention it. Ajf773 (talk) 09:01, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
My point is that these routes should be mentioned, given that the purpose is to provide encyclopaedic coverage of the subject not a travel guide. Thryduulf (talk) 11:04, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails GNG, no one here has actually presented significant coverage in reliable sources to prove otherwise. SK2242 (talk) 19:14, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No significant sources have been given that establishes any sort of notability. For a route that existed from 1986 - 2017 you would certainly expect something better than maps and road changes. Given the route isn't mentioned at List of bus routes in London I see no point redirecting there as no "defunct routes" exist (nor should it!). –Davey2010Talk 13:24, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Why should such a list not exist? Defunct routes (or at least ones with some degree of longevity) seem to be an equally encyclopaedic part of the coverage of buses in London as current ones do. Thryduulf (talk) 17:23, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Because defunct routes aren't notable and it would set a precedent that this material should be in articles when it shouldn't. Readers wanting that sort of material can always hop over to Wikia or whatever it's called. –Davey2010Talk 18:56, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If a list of current bus routes is a notable aspect of buses in London, and notability is not temporary, then why are former routes differently notable to current ones? Thryduulf (talk) 20:32, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Just an arbitrary fact, routes 10 and RV1 are defunct and still have articles. However I'm not debating those there, just route 82. Ajf773 (talk) 09:54, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Such a section did exist until deleted in September 2019 seemingly without discussion or an attempt to addresss issues. Have partially reinstated. Lilporchy (talk) 06:42, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - No obvious reason not to include this information. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 23:48, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@HumanBodyPiloter5: could you provide significant coverage in multiple reliable sources to show its notable then? SK2242 (talk) 16:22, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Either all London bus routes are notable or none of them are. Only nominating one makes no sense. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:26, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Not true. While most are completely non notable, there are a few exceptions, ie London Buses route 11. Otherwise you have given no clear reason for keeping. Ajf773 (talk) 09:27, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Bus routes in London. Pretty much every one has an article. Procedurally, it makes no sense whatsoever to only nominate a single one. I tend to agree that most of them aren't notable, but nominating them piecemeal is not the way to change that. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:21, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Necrothesp: what are you talking about? those are just the ones that haven’t been deleted yet. There are over 500 routes in London. SK2242 (talk) 17:45, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It makes more sense to nominate each one individually than every single one in a group. Ajf773 (talk) 08:46, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't researched the subject at hand, but Thryduulf's reasoning is sound. Those are the choices, that's one of the purposes of redirects, and this is not a bus route directory where we only list things because they exist now. Uncle G (talk) 14:52, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm getting rather tired of these discussions where deletion is called for but an obvious redirect target is available. Just redirect it if it is not notable, and if that is contested discuss it on the article talk page, rather than start an attention-seeking deletion discussion, and leave deletion discussions for those articles where an admin needs to hit the "delete" button (something that I was shocked to find a few months ago that many people don't understand to be the purpose of AfD). Phil Bridger (talk) 17:53, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing 'attention-seeking' about this. AfD's have been used for at least 50 other bus routes in London and dozens more elsewhere. They are necessary sometimes to solve such disputes. Ajf773 (talk) 09:27, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ajf773, On the one hand, AfD is not (and has never been) Articles for Discussion, so you should not open the debate unless you think deleting might be a satisfactory outcome. On the other hand, other avenues such as Wikipedia:Proposed article mergers sit for ages without much feedback, so AfD can be chosen in order to get a better and quicker feedback - which can be done per WP:IAR, if there is sufficient agreement it is a sensible idea. Ritchie333(talk)(cont) 10:04, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Those saying merge, there is nothing really to merge as the List of bus routes in London page now mentions the route (alongside a few discontinued routes), the same as it does all other 500 routes. Ajf773 (talk) 08:46, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment it would be better to build out a franchise article for the game show, Endemol Wipeout, where the videogame list can reside, instead of placing it into the 2008 game show article. Split out the international versions, sequels, reboots, adaptations from the 2008 article, into the franchise article. The franchise is owned by Endemol, and there are multiple TV game show franchises called "Wipeout", so Endemol Wipeout would seem to be the best name for a franchise article. -- 67.70.27.246 (talk) 08:07, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Their website is dead and the most recent thing I can find about them is a YouTube video Wikipedia won’t let me link to of them playing at a local festival in 2014 so they seem to have had a fairly short existence (5-6 years). No recordings I can find. There are mentions of them being “highly acclaimed” in programmes but I don’t find any examples of that acclaim. There are lots of student/postgrad bands that do some gigs for a while and then break up. I looked for sources on the individual quartet members and found Katie Littlemore - nothing. Charlotte Skinner - professional violinist whose profile doesn’t mention the quartet (this was a clincher for me). Sophie Broadbent - credits as a session musician. Zoe Marshall - music teacher profile that briefly mentions the quartet but significantly, refers to venues not events. No notability I’m afraid. Mccapra (talk) 05:34, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a gazetteer of political parties. Recent discussions and consequent deletions for Independent Green Voice and Scottish Family Party which are active parties that are running candidates show there are recent precedents for the wider Wikipedia community agreeing that not all political parties are notable, and notability does not attach itself to political parties as a right. This article has sources, but no evidence of WP:GNG and WP:ORG and general achievement. This former political party has no evidence of achievement or notability prior to, or following, elections in its 2 years of existence 14 years ago.

Delete I thank the nominator for using my "template" for AfD nominations, my influence is finally rubbing off! I agree that this party has not proven notability. I do accept that some coverage was made of them but ultimately their achievements are minimal to non-existent, and outside proving they exist, the coverage does not prove notable achievements.

Weak keep. I've added a couple of substantial sources to the article. There is enough coverage online to suggest there is much more offline (and perhaps in local language sources), given his apparent contribution to, and impact on, various sports in Assam, and even India in general. There were centenary celebrations in 2019 marking his birth ([3]) and the stadium in Nagaon is named after him.

Redirect to Greyhawk#Significant player characters of the home campaign - The interviews are already being used to source the entry for the Circle of Eight on the main article, as far as I can tell, so I'm not seeing much in the way of sourced content that still needs to be moved.

Redirect. Not sure what there is to merge, as the reception is sourced to a book in German without a page number, so hard to verify. No objection to merging if anyone wants to go through the trouble.

Daranios, The link doesn't work for me, all I get is "Keine Leseprobe verfügbar" error which google translates to "No extract available". But I am happy to accept it at good faith that you can verify it and that the relevant content there amounts to a single sentence (which means it fails SIGCOV, so my rationale still stands).

Speedy keep — the nom is without merit. Firstly, I don't see anything especially promotional, let alone solely so; in any case, WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP. AfD is mainly for judging notability: having won a fairly major contest and placed well in others certainly suggests notability, and the references are IMO enough (albeit that they could do with more secondary RS) to support that. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:38, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wow, the more I find, the sadder this actually becomes. The guy was the ex-husband of Joan Ganz Cooney and apparently helped bolster her confidence when it came to Sesame Street. However at the same time her success chafed since he felt unimportant. I wonder if that played into his reasons for the forgery. In any case, he became pretty self-destructive in his later years as the whole issue surrounding the forgery ultimately kept him from achieving the recognition and success he craved in philosophy. The forgery was wrong, but you can't help but feel for the guy a little. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 16:13, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, it seems there have been numerous WP:GNG-level sources (from many different countries!) added since the original AfD nomination. Most arguments for Delete address citations/notability, so I reckon those have been greatly assuaged.
Also (and I'm not sure what specific policy to cite here) but there's evidently an ongoing directed campaign to attack this page — edit wars, sock puppets, increasing anonymous contributions, a whole bunch of brigading tomfuckery. Other editors have ascribed this to users from Reddit, particularly the /r/BaldAndBaldrDossier subreddit, but I haven't dug very deep. If I can find a specific post I'll link to it. Though it's perhaps not an argument for Keep per se, it does make the original AfD nomination smell rather dubious. Knowing that, Delete at this time really rubs me the wrong way.
Nemov has clarified that they put the article up for deletion and have been watching it for some time, so it's unrelated to posts coming from /r/BaldAndBaldrDossier. They also helpfully linked two threads where calls for action are being made: [10][11]. So the timing of the nomination is simply coincidental. As far as I can tell, no sources cited from that subreddit have made it into the article (which is unfortunate, from a certain perspective). I'm still rankled by the targeted harassment and brigading, but oddly enough a group of 3.4k members dedicated to "exposing" the host of the show is actually a persuasive argument for notoriety and retaining the article — though obviously not possessing citation-quality. If only they were so dedicated to verifying their information! Sigh. Still Keep, all things considered. –OrinZ (talk) 13:33, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Is that number insufficient? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ronin Librarian (talk • contribs) 19:33, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Specifically, I may be wrong, but I believe that it passes notability guidelines. I used the following four articles to establish notability, all of which are written by independant second-hand reporting sources that go into varying degrees of depth about GoodAI specifically:
Another WP:SPA writing a paid article. The first references above, is a press-release, the rest fail WP:ORGIND and WP:SIRS. They are not independent. scope_creepTalk 10:04, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Scope creep: I agree regarding those sources except I don't see how the Quartz article isn't independent from GoodAI. Are its content or its author connected to GoodAI? — MarkH21talk 05:16, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The Quartz article and Czech Crunch article appear to be significant coverage from independent secondary reliable sources (although clarification is needed on a claim that it may not be independent?), so there might be a case for WP:GNG/WP:NCORP here. — MarkH21talk 05:44, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The first is an annoucement of a competition, and a partnership as it fails WP:CORPDEPTH. It comes from a press-release and is not independent. The second one is an interview with the Marek Rosa, so it dependent source. It fails WP:ORGIND. It is not organisationaly independent from the company. It is an interview with the founder. So it fails WP:SIRS. The core problem here, one a trade journal starts talking to the company directly, then it is not independent. It a not a true source. Most of the trade operate like that, as they supposed journalist, but they are not really journalists as would get from e.g. the old Baltimore Sun, or the LA times, or AP News, or the Guardian or the Telegraph. They don't understand the tech, as it very complex, so they operate by inteviews and what the company puts out, so they're not creating journalistic stories, in the same sense of the Baltimore Sun. It is really jaundiced articles they put out, that are really only valid until next issue of the mag or stories. scope_creepTalk 07:30, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I agree with the analysis of references above - those references fail NCORP. WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. None of the references in the article meet the criteria. They are either standard business listings or short articles based on an "announcement" by the company - all of the articles I can find are within the company's echo chamber and I have been unable to find any "Independent Content" as per ORGIND. Topic fails WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 17:01, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I can find no in depth, independent coverage of this former software. GHits are a red herring as colleges had an OrgSync site to run their colleges, and those come up. Its successor, Campus Labs does not have an article and I can find no information on them that suggests significant notability to build an article there to merge to.

@Mindmatrix: I moved List of Degrassi episodes because not only did the title insinuate that it was a list of all of the episodes in the entire franchise, but because there is an entire part of Degrassi: The Next Generation that is officially titled just Degrassi, and this would have likely caused confusion. Then recently, I realized that the two series being grouped together was unnecessary and needed a split.
I was also then unable to move List of Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High episodes post-split (it gave me a 'either page already exists or name isn't valid' error, despite page being empty), so I had to create an entirely new article for DJH instead, therefore the current mix-up. That being said, I agree with your proposal. ToQ100gou (talk) 12:28, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose full deletion, support Mindmatrix's alternative. We also have to take into account the page's editing history — if we consider the content notable enough to have articles at all, then we have to balance how we're presenting the content now against the ability to track the history of how it was presented in the past (for example, we sometimes need to review articles' edit histories at some point to determine who originally added certain content.) Splitting the page wasn't an unreasonable idea, so I'm not rapping ToQ100gou on the nose for that — but we do still need to hold on to the old page's edit history, so there are better ways to handle the changeover than just deleting the original article outright.

Comment An assessment table was created to discuss the sources presented in the 2018 article discussion (1st Nomination). I am including it here.
This company has gained new coverage in the past months, which, to my perception, fulfills the GNG requirements for the publication. I have added those publications to the table.
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using ((source assess table)).
Finally, this company's Youtube subscriber count exceeds the audience of This Week in Startups and many other Youtubers listed on Wikipedia.
Delete (I was working towards starting this AfD myself, after removing most of the peacock language in this version), many of the sources here are thin (thenextweb and techcrunch are both not listed favourably on WP:RSP). Many of the cited sources are (were, as I removed them) promotional pieces or blogs (hongkiat). In the end their claim to notability boils down to "they have also helped create decks for multi-million dollar funding rounds". --Dirk BeetstraTC 06:57, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Reply At least 5 of the sources in the assessment table from the first AfD have been agreed as meeting the GNG criteria. New coverage includes Washington Post and Business Insider. How many GNG sources are needed? -- Jpczcaya T 22:57, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Nearlyevil665 and GSS:, the article states "'Caya' Jose Cayasso" as CEO, no need for an internet search. Dirk BeetstraTC 10:41, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Reply COI tag has been added and disclosed as per guidelines. Apologies for missing this. Tried to do the proper research after the experience with the first AfD.
After User:Beetstra's edits, the current version of the article is clean, and includes language backed by the citations included, which seem to comply with GNG requirements on the assessment table (please edit this accordingly if you feel a source has been misrepresented). I've also updated the table with additional sources, including books and news publications with unquestionable notoriety (Washington Post, Business Insider, 'El Periódico' from Spain).
I hate using an argument/drawing comparisons to other Wikipedia content, but I've identified comparable pages (for companies, products or Youtube channels) with less notoriety than Slidebean that have survived deletion consideration and even COIs. For example, This Week in Startups which only has 4 references of equal or similar weight to the ones provided here, TeslaBjorn a much smaller Youtube channel with citations coming from mainly primary sources; and PowToon a comparable product/company, with fewer sources, and also possible COI. Again, neither of these were subject to such scrutiny.
The only reason I jumped back into this discussion was after I saw User:Oromo1235's attempt to republish this page back in March. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Slidebean). While I made mistakes in the process of bringing this discussion back to the table, I think there has been significant coverage on this company/Youtube channel that has not been taken into consideration.

ReplyBeetstra I confirmed my COI, it's included a tag at the top of this discussion. Not intending to get those articles taken down, by any means (I wish I were that smart, nearlyevil). The point is they have withstood someones AfD/GNG consideration. Piotrus is oversimplifying this debate by discouraging the sources presented as press releases. Have you actually seen the sources in the assessment table? A Search (with social media excluded) yields 100,000+ results. I am genuinely asking: isn't that enough notoriety? -- Jpczcaya T 14:21, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The quantity of search results is irrelevant. I followed your link and skimmed through the first three pages and it's nothing but primary sources. I don't see any independent, significant coverage by secondary sources. And it's those type of sources that actually count towards notability. nearlyevil665 15:40, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such official position, and spouses of the prime minister do not undertake any official dealings on behalf of the government. They accompany their husbands on diplomatic trips, but are not accorded any special rights or privileges separate from their husband. The entire article is unsourced, and complicated further by Ho Ching's activities undertaken as CEO of Temasek Holdings, which does not reflect on her position as a spouse of the Prime Minister.

Comment I would just like to add that there's nothing to preserve. The entire page on the roles of a spouse is unsourced despite my best efforts to hunt for sources today. I am from Singapore and self-nominated this article for deletion as spouses of the prime minister quite literally have no duties to perform for the government.

Delete I am persuaded by the comments above that this is not a thing (as a side note, we should probably have WP:NOTATHING for linking in discussions). I think the spirit of WP:NOTINHERITED/WP:INVALIDBIO can be applied here. I find the argument that it would be an insult to Singapore to delete this list on the grounds that there are many articles in Category:Lists of spouses of national leaders thoroughly unconvincing—that's just another way of saying WP:Similar articles exist, which is one of the WP:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. Indeed, if there are other articles in that category to which the same arguments for deletion apply, those articles should also be brought to WP:AfD.I think it would be terribly inappropriate to merge this to List of prime ministers of Singapore, as was suggested above. I am reminded of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sandra Grant Bennett and its associated Deletion Review, where S Marshall said I think it's important to treat women as people in their own right and not as accessories to their husbands or their husbands' careers. Merging this content to List of prime ministers of Singapore would indeed be treating the PM spouses as accessories to the PMs and their careers. Moreover, who the PM's spouse is is a biographical detail unrelated to the role as PM. The proper place for that piece of biographical information is the biographical article about the individual PM. And of course, each individual spouse of a Singaporean PM can have a biographical article if they are independently notable, where the same information about who they're married to can be presented from the opposite direction, so to speak.

If a local historian had checked it out, that would be another matter. But I do not see how we can safely write an article on this when the only people claiming this are writing anonymously on a marketing company's WWW site, or the owners of the house being interviewed for a newspaper.

WP:BLP of a journalist, not properly sourced as passing WP:JOURNALIST. As always, the notability test for a journalist is not passed by using his own work as metaverification that his work exists -- it's passed by using third party coverage about him and his work as verification that it's been externally deemed as significant by sources other than his own employers. That is, he doesn't become notable by being the author of media coverage about other things, he becomes notable by being the subject of media coverage written by other people. But this is referenced almost entirely to his own bylined work, and the only sources that actually represent independent coverage or analysis about his work are from a podcast and an advocacy organization, which are not solid enough to clinch his notability all by themselves if they're the best sources on offer. And while there are valid notability claims here that would qualify him for an article that was sourced properly, there's nothing here that's "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be sourced better than this. Bearcat (talk) 15:48, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep Strongly oppose deletion. There are now 21 references in which Livesey is profiled or his work reviewed. Thanks for drawing my attention to this and also for your work promoting more First Nations journalists, a worthwhile project. I would like to see more Wikipedia articles about Canadian journalists and Canadian news outlets.Oceanflynn (talk) 18:41, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, even after your changes there still aren't 21 notability-supporting sources here. Six of the footnotes are "staff" profiles on the self-published websites of his own past and present employers, which are not notability-making sources. Another six are still his own bylined work metaverifying its own existence. Three are still from the same podcast, two are still from the same advocacy organization, one is from a student media publication, and one is steadfastly refusing to actually load at all in order for me to verify exactly what it is or isn't (but is stated in the citation as coming from a cable community channel, which is the Canadian equivalent of public access television and thus wouldn't be notability-making sourcing regardless of what it is or isn't.)
Only two of the 21 footnotes are actually starting to build any case for notability at all — the National Post and Quill & Quire are steps in the right direction, as they're actual reviews of his work in real GNG-worthy media outlets, but a person still needs more than just two of those to clear the bar. Articles about journalists, as a rule, frequently run into this problem: content self-published by their own employers, such as staff profiles, don't help to establish their notability at all, and it can be very nearly impossible to actually devise a viable search term that finds coverage about the journalist (which helps notability) while filtering out primary source staff profiles and coverage produced by the journalist (which do not help notability) — which is why, in reality, most of the "work" I've done on journalists recently has involved redirecting redlinked names of potentially notable, but not yet properly sourceable, journalists like Melissa Ridgen and Asha Tomlinson and Chris Ensing to their employers. Bearcat (talk) 21:58, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Bearcat To avoid deletion of this article, I have been re-reading various protocols on the AfD process to better understand the process. While previously articles I have created have succeeded in AfD, it is always helpful to learn more. As suggested in the deletion policy section, "Alternatives to deletion" I have added two maintenance templates. I am hoping through the article stub template to invite more participation from the Journalism Project to this discussion. I added the "more citations needed" template, to respond to your major concern.
The policy Notability in a nutshell reads: "A person is presumed to be notable if they have received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." In your statement you narrow in the case of journalists, by saying that the notability test for a journalist is only valid when it is, "passed by using third party coverage about him and his work as verification that it's been externally deemed as significant by sources other than his own employers." The problem with adding "other than his employers" is that a journalist who has worked in Canada's mass media industry for over 35 years, has worked and/or published in almost every major newspaper and outlet in Canada along with PBS, NPR in the United States and the Guardian in the UK. There are many journalists in Canada whose notability would suffer from the same dilemma—they have worked for too many major media outlets. I was surprised to see how few Canadian newspaper reporters and correspondents, and Canadian investigative journalists have Wikipedia articles. Of those that do, there are many with weak sources. For many, their obituaries were the main source. If there are notable in death, why not when they were living?Oceanflynn (talk) 18:55, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I did not say that any coverage of him that ever appears in a news outlet he previously worked for is permanently inadmissible forever even if it's published long, long after he doesn't actually work there anymore — that's very different than his own current employer writing about stuff he did for that self-same current employer. But the single most important thing you cannot do is stake his notability as a journalist on the existence of "our staff" profiles in his own employers' websites — you need journalist-written news stories about him and his accomplishments, not "meet our team" staff directories, to make a journalist notable. Bearcat (talk) 21:09, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
strong keep this is an award-winning journalist, awards convey notability. While only co-winner of the Dupont award, he won the 2008 national magazine award (and apparently again in 2013), a Canadian Journalism Award and a national newspaper award for the Irving story. There is clearly enough here for notability. Also his book was nominated for an award. see [14]. --hroest 14:59, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
An award gets a person over our notability standards only to the extent that said award garners reliable source coverage about the presentation of said award to demonstrate that it's seen as a notable award. If you have to rely on the article subject's own staff profile on the self-published website of his own employer to source an award win, because independent third-party media coverage that treats the award win as a news story is nonexistent, then that award is not a notability-making award — no award is a notability claim until you can source the presentation of the award to journalistic reportage about the award ceremony.

Well he doesn't pass WP:NACTOR so it's down to coverage of his war record. Also the article is the same as IMDb here so G12 may apply, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 01:58, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete lacks SIGCOV in multiple RS to meet WP:GNG or any other notability guideline. Mztourist (talk) 04:08, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Doesn't pass anything in WP:BIO. Can't find any independent, reliable sources besides the two already listed in the article. Dr. Swag Lord (talk) 08:42, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I take the opposite tack to Atlantic306: to me he's obviously non-notable as a soldier and the article authors did themselves no favours using the military person infobox. Simply serving in the ranks during a war and getting wounded is nowhere near enough: you have to play a significant part. As to WP:NACTOR, the requirement is Has had significant roles in multiple notable films. Since three of his films have articles, we'll call them notable, but he isn't even listed among the cast of two of them, and roles like "mercenary" and "FBI agent" don't sound like significant parts to me.

Had done costume designing only in a single movie. Hence fails NENT. Also no reliable sources were also found on doing a WP:Before to establish general GNG criteria Kichu🐘 Need any help? 00:12, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Religious leader whose notability is not established by article or references. This article is obviously incomplete, with empty sections. It was also evidently written to praise its subject rather than describe him neutrally. Moving the incomplete article into draft space would be appropriate, except that the originator has also created a draft, either out of impatience, or in order to game the system.
This article was tagged for deletion as an unsourced BLP once, and sources were added, but do not make the article ready for mainspace.
The draft is a copy of the third reference, and has been tagged for deletion as copyvio.
A very brief check of the references shows that they do not provide independent significant coverage.

In Bengali. Machine translation says that subject preached.

No. Passing mention.

Appears to be local newspaper.
No. Editoral reportage praising the subject at length.
Delete per nom. There is nothing asserted to be special about this figure as compared to the field of religious figures. BD2412T 03:37, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The only source in the article is giving a routine coverage. On doing a WP:Before, I got the school website and some list of school rating. This fails NORG as well as GNG Kichu🐘 Need any help? 00:01, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete All I could find is a trivial article about them postponing an exam. So this clearly the notability guidelines as a topic. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:06, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I'm finding zero non-trivial coverage. Unless we're all missing something obvious, this is a clear GNG fail. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 06:16, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
