Keep seem to be notable within the acapella genre going by the awards won and by the secondary coverage in the reception section, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:49, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Note that the reception section is mostly references to either 1) sources published by the university or 2) open online forums. NBAND has a pretty high bar for awards conferring notability (i.e., the Grammy's or the Juno Awards). Bestagon (talk) 02:57, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Secondly they have reached 2.3 million volunteers in Africa, they have consistently protested against social ills in Nigeria, a country with 200 million inhabitant, i have seen many articles remained on Wikipedia with only one written line, compared to what i have written about the organisation. Let's cite Don Jazzy for example, a Nigerian famous musician with over 300 reliable news coverages, yet our editors couldn't see sources to verify the article.

KEEP. Notable playwrights and poets from marginalized populations are often young. She is prolific and award winning. Lambda awards are highly competitive and sought after by ambitious creative Queer writers in all genres, regardless of age or educational status. I believe that Christina Quintana has a solid professional future ahead of her, and as Wikipedia articles are continually updated, I believe we will have more to write about this writer as she progresses in her career. RachelWex (talk) 18:38, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

perhaps I should have said, "award for the development of someone who is not yet notable". (and an honourable mention is not a prize. It's a consolation for not winning a prize.) Perhaps she does have" a solid professional future ahead of her" -- and at that point, an encyclopedia should have an article. DGG ( talk ) 19:36, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Does not meet any criteria for WP:NOTABLE. Two very brief sentences. Has been flagged since 2009 asking for sources. Subject appears to have done nothing during the 20 years of his life. Smerus (talk) 21:05, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. While this is pretty much a WP:SUBSTUB the subject is notable. I've added two sources, a local newspaper and better, a book where he seems to have a few page-long biography (although I can't verify this due to snippet view). A search for "Klemens Zamoyski"+1767 on google books shows a bunch more mentions, some of which appear non-trivial, although again, we run into the issue that most Polish books are available only with snippet view since Google doesn't care to deal with non-English copyright. If one had access to a Polish library it shouldn't be too hard to expand this into something longer, as there are indications the subject did, in fact, do something in his life. Well, at least a palace was named after him. PS. Also found an entry for him in a local/online encyclopedia [3] but not sure if it is reliable, it doesn't cite any sources, and the date of birth differs from ours. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:02, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Please explain how you conclude that "the subject is notable". You don't give any indication of what your possible (and maybe unreliable) Polish references say about him. Possible (and unreliable) references in Polish can't really count here. Of the two 'sources' you have added to the article, one says that KZ was an enegetic landlord, but there is no indication that it goes on to say anything else; the other, which incidentally gives a different birthdate and therefore does not substantiate the article text, specifically translates "he did not perform any significant administrative or state functions." The source you mention above, which you admit may not be reliable, tells us that he improved local forest management, made an unsuccesful attempt to improve trade with Armenia, and forbade wooden construction. Er.....that's it. --Smerus (talk) 11:05, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Smerus, As I said, my argument that he is likely notable rests on significant Google Book hits and snippet views. Granted, I cannot guarantee that they all contain significant coverage, but many read like logical excerpts of such lengthier coverage. For example: [4] "Klemens Zamoyski ( 1738 – 1767 ) . Gdy umarł ordynat Tomasz Antoni Zamoyski w 1751 roku , jego syn Klemens liczył 13 lat . Otrzymał staranne wychowanie w kraju i za granicą . Jego guwernerem był Francuz Charles de Sempol, pułkownik saski.". or [5] "Klemens Zamoyski odebrał bardzo staranne wykształcenie , był eleganckim młodzieńcem i namalowano szereg jego wizerunków, odznaczających się dużymi walorami dekoracyjnymi, a nawet artystycznymi. Te konterfekty, na których został przedstawiony w młodym wieku, są na ogół błędnie datowane, ponieważ badacze przyjmują, że VIII ordynat żył w latach 1737-1767, gdy w rzeczywistości urodzil się w 1738 roku." It seems clear that there are at least several reliable sources out there in which his life is discussed for at least several paragraphs, which IMHO satisfies GNG.

Nominating this for deletion as it not clear whether it actually happened. The article was originally written based on an entry in the African Elections Database. However, this was subsequently deleted. Why there was supposedly an election is unclear, as the president at the time had only recently been declared president for life.
As discussed on the talk page, there is an es.wiki article, but it is heavily sourced to a book that contains some basic factual errors (for example, its source for the claimed results of the election (a Nohlen et al. book) is actually the results of a referendum in the same year.
With this in mind, I thought it might be a good idea to AfD it, in case anyone can provide some definitive sources that it happened (or not). Number57 20:53, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Great catch! Almost everything points to this having been a mistake in the African elections database, creating effectively a duplicate of 1973 Equatorial Guinean constitutional referendum. I believe that Nohlen's book and the es.wiki page (and, by the way, a ca.wiki page) are basically correct, and both give a July date for a constitutional referendum. I checked in Lent's Heads of States and Governments and it agrees that there was a referendum and a parliamentary election in 1973 but makes no mention of presidential elections. If we believed that the 1973 Equatorial Guinean constitutional referendum constituted a sort of presidential referendum, we could follow articles like 2002 Iraqi presidential referendum, at least as the title of a redirect, to clarify that it was not really an "election". But I'm not convinced that's true. Worse, there appears to be an outright mistake here: in no source can I find evidence that anything happened in October 1973. So in the end delete looks like the most correct option. - Astrophobe (talk) 07:31, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Although I guess that Nohlen's book doesn't have an error, does it? On page 356 it lists a July referendum and no 1973 presidential election. That table says there were no presidential elections between 1968 and 1989 (with one referendum in 1982 that could apparently be considered an election). And, with due respect to WP:EXPERT, that's pretty much the standard reference text, and I'd be inclined to believe it unless there's really strong evidence not to. - Astrophobe (talk) 07:41, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article used to be rather shoddy, but it's been improved and a PROD declined. But, even now, I still believe that the subject falls short of GNG. The following sources are used in the article and none of them are independent or constitute sigcov: her personal website, an interview, a 2006 press release about her leaving an employer, a more detailed release about her joining a new firm, the website of her radio show and a story about her husband. A WP:BEFORE search lets me think that the editors already got the most out of these sources. I understand that she must be fairly well-known, but I don't believe WP:JOURNALIST is met either.

CommentJohnpacklambert - can you please say why? This is a really unhelpful contribution. Deus et lex (talk) 02:17, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. There are two versions in the history of this article: a version created in March 2007, when referencing standards were extremely lax, which by 5 June 2011 had acquired one good reference (The Age, a major newspaper) and received the first of a series of edits by a probable COI editor (user name is the same as a product she was selling at the time). By November 2020 it had accrued a second decent reference (Radio Today, which appears to be a broadcasting news site) and was PRODded by KidAd on notability grounds and deleted. It was recreated a couple of days ago by Celco85, whose last version was this after a rejected speedy deletion nomination by Sonofstar on notability grounds and a PROD by the nominator on notability grounds, which I removed while expanding the article using the two sources Celco85 had included (one of which, Melbourne My Style, they had at a search URL), the two from previous versions that had been undeleted after I inquired on an admin's page as to whether the page was a recreation (it is not), and others I found by searching, including using information from the older article, which had much more information about her career. I reject the nominator's assertion that all the sources are connected to the subject: The Age is not; while Radio Today draws on a news release, it is clearly not a regurgitation—look at how it goes on to report on the person leaving the position; nor is the Sydney Morning Herald, another respected newspaper. The article in that last is primarily about her husband, but used in the article for information about her: her novel, for biographic completeness (I found no citable reviews, but it was published by a reputable publisher), and her private life (husband, children). The remainder are non-independent but none is a press release and all used minimally to fill out the article: her personal biography for her birthplace, school, and major in university (other sources also mention the university); her current employer to support the 3rd-person source on that point; and the Melbourne My Style, some sort of society/human interest website, is an interview, but provides useful biographical references, including her further education. I imagine there are other news reports from the start and end of her Ten News stint: I did not find the two formerly cited sources in my initial search, I found some fluff pieces that I did not use (notably an interview that appears on peterbannan.com and appears to be recycled from newsbytesonline in 2014), and all I found on Trove was a 1994 case in which she denied involvement, but the sources we are now using, and the sources I rejected except for those reports on Trove, all present her as a well-known news presenter, and co-anchoring a network's evening news program in a major region is a significant position in her field. So my primary argument for notability is GNG, but secondly I think she also has a claim as prominent by virtue of that 10-year position. In particular, the older version was an old article presenting a noted career that should have been tagged as requiring more sources; it amply suggested notability, but was woefully under-sourced (and the business does not appear to have attracted independent coverage, so I did not reinsert that in the article.) I believe my sourced expansion shows that she squeaks by, and that Australian editors can probably find older news reports that are not online, but not yet old enough to be in Trove's archive. Yngvadottir (talk) 21:56, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, let me admit that I misjudged the article in The Age; it is not a basic press release and I'll make sure to strike that part from the nomination. I do concur with your statement that she is a well-known news presenter and I don't doubt that there is lot's of verifiable biographical information about her, which could and is being used in her article. Where we disagree is the content of WP:GNG: to convince me that she meets the guideline all that is needed are two pieces in reliable publications which are substantial enough and clearly independent. If we allow that the piece in The Age is in this category, we are still lacking that second source. The Radio Today article is not sufficient, given that it has press release-character and that much of it is taken up by direct quotations of the subject. Of course, there is still WP:JOURNALIST. You seem to suggest the she meets criterion 4 (it could also be 3) by virtue of [her] 10-year position. If I am correct in thinking that you aim at No. 4 or 3, yours is a rather loose interpretation of these criteria. I know of many people who appear on TV and have been around for decades, some of them write books and act in films. Therefore, I fail to see what makes Jennifer Hansen more notable than the countless other minor celebrities in the media. (I think this question is at the core of WP:JOURNALIST.) Only after the notability of a subject is established should we attempt to fill their article with information. Your comment argues for the existence of verifiable content (which, I agree, is fundamentally important) and glosses over how exactly she meets WP:GNG or WP:JOURNALIST. A case in point is the Sydney Morning Herald article. Yes, it comes from a reliable source and is independent. But the subject is only mentioned in passing, which means that it does not have much merit for assessing her notability measured against GNG. Modussiccandi (talk) 22:45, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Yngvadottir. The article meets WP:GNG. The sources in the article (except for her personal website) show that there is significant and independent coverage of her. The Age article is indepedent and substantial. The Radio Today article is independent - the fact that it quotes the subject does not make it unreliable - as Yngvadottir says it goes beyond that.

NLIST actually says One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources and Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability. It does not state that the topic has to be discussed as a group for it to be kept. Spike 'em (talk) 21:53, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Spike 'em is again misquotating and want to cherrypick. Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability. Editors are still urged to demonstrate list notability via the grouping itself before creating stand-alone lists. Grouping is necessary for stand-alone list except when we create a list for navigational purposes. Pilean, CreativeNorth, Extra999, Lugnuts if they want to re-consider.

Yes, I was thinking about the terrible article title too when I saw this nom. Anything that ditches the "1,000+" bit has to be an improvement, as well as the reworking the "women players" to match the format of WT20I cricket. That aside, some crude maths indicate that a cricketer needs to play 50 to 60 matches to get to 1,000 career runs in WT20Is. Most of them have a career average between 21 and 31 runs too. Even ignoring the COVID impact to fixtures, most women's teams seem to play only six to nine WT20Is in a YEAR! So round that up to ten to make it easier, and that's 5 to 6 years for someone to score 1,000+ runs. LugnutsFire Walk with Me 17:38, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The story in the article about moving the place, ostensibly from Durham, is almost certainly false: Gudde states that the name is a corruption of "Mortmere", that is, "Dead Sea", a name that only became meaningful with the formation of the Salton Sea. At any rate, he also calls it a station, not a town, and maps show a long passing siding which is still in use. What passes for a settlement there is a patch of failed development which is worth a trip to Google Streetview to see in its post-apocalyptic splendor, but there is no evidence it was called Mortmar.

When you look at it, the work that is being removed is that of myself, Lugnuts, and 02blythed. The only three of us who have been bothered to create articles. If people refuse to work on them, that's not the fault of any of the three of us. None of us can be blamed for this. For that purpose, I am no longer bitter or angry about this.

Sure. When people work towards the aims of the project in expanding it rather than destroying it. Those who have no will to do so should not be making judgements on those who have done.

Delete it is high time we started ridding Wikipedia of article on non-notable people who do not meet GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:19, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or weak redirect to Kalat cricket team. As with similar AfDs (e.g. Anwar Ali), fails GNG; by consensus, the presumption of notability afforded by NCRIC to cricketers such as these is worthless. In future it may be better to be bold and redirect similar articles, and reserve AFD for only those contested. wjematherplease leave a message... 10:59, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps if these decisions took place on WT:CRIC rather than AfD I might respect those who instigate the discussions. Until then I will assume they have no respect towards the aims of the project. Bobo. 11:15, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - If you want more sources to be found, an AfD is not the way to do so. Having said that, work should be done in List of X players articles anyway. "Quality of articles" and "length of articles" are not the same thing. Arguing to delete articles for "lack of quality" is nonsense. Bobo. 09:44, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- these database scrape articles are becoming unsustainable. Data that amounts to a few cells in a spreadsheet should be presented as such in a table, so if List of Kalat cricketers existed it could be merged/redirected there. When and if that article gets created we can still make a redirect to it. And protest the personal attacks on the nominator and other participants of this discussion.

Fails WP:ORGCRIT, specifically "...has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." While i would argue that the Inc. Magazine article qualifies, i see no other coverage that would satisfy the 'multiple' part of 'multiple reliable secondary sources'.
An, admittedly, not too thorough google search yields little of note. If anyone more versed in google wants to try, go for it.
Additionally, nothing links here and in the 11 years since its creation, this article has not appreciably improved. Bonewah (talk) 14:27, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The thorough Inc. magazine article positions the firm as prominent in their field and could certainly count towards notability. There was also an article entitled "Modo moves medicines" which appears to be accessible now only as a lesson in a language tutorial book: [6].

Delete there has been some coverage, as is clearly mentioned in the article. Much of that coverage is not available online. What we do have online is all by the same author. For an active artist, it is somewhat surprising to see that coverage pretty much stops about 15 years ago. That's possible, of course, and notability is not temporary. I've looked a bit closer at the awards; the Grand Award of the San Diego Art Institute was a pay-to exhibit juried art show, with a $2000 prize. [7] and is not the kind of award that would satisfy WP:NARTIST, neither is the California Discovery Gold Award, which I've only found mentions of in sources related to Hoff. The SECA Art Award at SF MOMA is an award for a local artist from a very notable institution with a modest cash prize. There are two problems; he is listed as finalist, but the award was not given in 1999 (it's biennial). The Eureka Fellowship is more indicative of notability. In the same year that Hoff received it, so did Jim Campbell , Geoffrey Chadsey, Sergio De La Torre, Lewis deSoto, Todd Hido and Stephanie Syjuco. The real problem I have with this subject is the lack of available material; I can't find anything that could sustain an article. We have almost nothing we could say about him. If he were a professional soccer player from Liechtenstein who played only one game, the AfD would have been an obvious keep, of course, but because we're writing about a visual artist, our standards are much, much higher.

The Hungarian article is up to Afd as well, and although sources are present in that article, they don't establish notability.

Hold I must concede the cause of this discussion is due to my inexperience at wiki editing, I created the article using the name Ash (most commonly used with informal sources) instead of Ashley (formal citations). The google scholar page of the citations is here: Google Scholar - Ashley M. Richter. Editing Wikipedia has long been an interest to pursue when possible and my readings into the efforts to generate a digital twin of significant heritage sites such as The 2012 Petra Cyber-Archaeology Cultural Conservation Expedition and the science of Cyber-Archaeology I believe to be of significant public interest. So this first article I've created was to be the seed of a larger web of articles that document within Wikipedia's guidelines this important science. If reasonable, I request another week to address the articles current issues. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sirjulio (talk • contribs) 21:19, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The problem here isn't really anything to do with the article, Sirjulio, it's that Richter doesn't appear to be notable by Wikipedia's standards. That is the test we use to decide whether topics should have articles, rather than 'public interest'.

Delete. WP:TOOSOON for WP:NPROF for this very-recent PhD. Google Scholar page [8] shows very small citation numbers for NPROF C1, and there are no signs of the other criteria of NPROF, nor of other notability. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 08:43, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yet another WP:NOTGENEALOGY entry from a sockmaster intent on creating articles on himself and members of his family. In this case the subject fails WP:GNG, WP:SINGLEEVENT, WP:VICTIM and other guidelines. >700 people survived the sinking of the Titanic. They are not all automatically notable. All of the available coverage on this subject relates to her involvement in the that event, and none of it deals with the subject independent of that event. WP:BIO1E is therefore not surpassed. In all bar one or two of the sources, the subject is not the primary topic of the piece (mentioned in books alongside other survivors, "witness testimony", etc). WP:SIGCOV is therefore not surpassed. Most of the article seems to be intent on drawing links between the subject and other members of the same family. In a transparent attempt to imply notability through association with each other. WP:NOTINHERIT is therefore also a concern. I could go on and on about the SOCK, NOTHERE, NOTGENEALOGY and other issues relative to the editing practices of the article's author. But, in terms of the article's subject alone, WP:ANYBIO is not met. In short:
All of the available coverage relates to the subject's involvement in a single event.
None of the available coverage relates to the subject's involvement in anything else notable.
None of the available coverage deals with the subject as the primary topic of that coverage.
Delete we need to stop the use of Wikipedia to create indepth articles on people who were never actually in any way notable. Being among hundreds of people on one boat that did not die when it sunk is not a sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:22, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This article's severely undereferenced, most of the references here are blogs, ancestry sites, and other non-reliable sources. Several individuals who apparently don't warrant their own articles are listed as notable. This seems more like puff than a wikipedia piece. JamesG5 (talk) 07:00, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The page creator responded to this in my user page & his own talk page and admitted to a WP:COI issue here, as well as a likely WP:promo concern. IMO this bolsters my concerns. JamesG5 (talk) 08:11, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Firstly I agree that there is definitely a conflict of interest issue here, in that ShArk50008 has clearly created the article to promote his family. Secondly the other Sri Lankan family articles that he is referring to are predominantly families which have political dynasties across multiple generations such as the Bandaranaike family, Rajapaksa family, Senanayake family, and Wijewardene family. The same doesn't appear to apply to the Weerasooriya family as far as I can see - which only has three notable members, which whilst related are fairly separate members of the same family tree - hardly a prominent notable family. I am erring towards delete but intend to do so more research before reaching any particular conclusion. Dan arndt (talk) 09:46, 6 January 2021 (UTC).[reply]
Comment - It seems ironic to me, as a Sri Lankan, that the very families you refer to, all of these so called dynasties, are known for their exploitation of my country. Starting with the Bandaranaike family who brought in the Sinhala Only Act, which resulted in the 30 year Civil War, and a division which exists even today among communities. In Comparison, the Weerasooriya's of Dodanduwa are not only known well in the country, as a dynasty that has given the country the best of its Clansman, but also contributed tremendously to the development and well being of the country. They have not robbed a cent from Sri Lanka, but rather given back. In comparison to the families you have stated, Weerasooriya's definitely score higher in terms of integrity above all, hence I believe as a family that has been in existence, prominently since the Dutch Era in the South of Sri Lanka, with verified commitment to the country's well being, not only deserve to be on wikipedia, but also deserve to be recognised. FYI I will be updating it with everyone who have noteworthy achievements. They have a lot of people in the family, some of whom do not carry the surname (but are connected on their maternal side), they have contributed tremendously to the country.

Delete Basically a list of people with articles in Wikipedia. Could be a disambiguation page rather than an article. Oaktree b (talk) 17:00, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - There may be individuals in this family who have contributed to the wealth and well-being of Sri Lanka. I won't debate that. It appears they may already have an article. But being an IT specialist, IT professional, a general practitioner (the others included) in Florida or practicing law in Sri Lanka does not rise to the level of significant contributions worthy to stand notable on their own. I know in some countries notability may be decided by blood relation to other notable persons. That is not the case with Wikipedia and especially not on Wiki:EN as notability is not automatically inherited. This reads like a paid advertisement for the family and is serious POV pushing. Add to that the creator admits to having a COI and refuses to disclose this and it is significant grounds for deletion and the creator may need to be topic banned. I would take the same stance on any family list created as this one has been. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 19:23, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Why is it that Non-Sri Lankan's are deciding this? All of you appear to be from Western Nations. According to your definition of notability, more than half the existing articles done by South Asians should be deleted. I presume all of you being First World Country citizens, enjoy that privilege. I wonder how many of you have stepped foot in Sri Lanka, or can read the native language. Why aren't Sri Lankan wikipedia editors deciding on this? Why am I to be topic banned? I've done several other articles before with no issue whatsoever. Unfortunately very few people in Sri Lanka contribute to wikipedia, unlike you people, so most Sri Lankans have to do it on behalf of other organisations/people, it's not the same system in America, Canada, Australia, or Europe, we don't as many significant contributors as you do, a lot of our Local history is yet to be added, but when we do, we get some Westerner telling us we can't. Stop applying your subjecting western first world POV on this. There is no conflict of interest, I earlier put my initial posts/replies on the wrong page because I was not so familiar with the talk page, which James took the wrong way. I don't mind people considering it for deletion, as long as its done by Sri Lankan editors, not editors from White Western First World Countries, which is very unreasonable in any context. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ShArk50008 (talk • contribs) 02:42, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Reply@ShArk50008:, I am a Sri Lankan Wikipedia editor and am very conversant in the country's history so I take offence at your comments. From now on you should stop attacking anyone who has a conflicting point of view to your own and start addressing the issues that have been identified. Dan arndt (talk) 02:51, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Reply@Dan arndt: Apologies for that, thought you were an Australian, I was not attacking anybody, just making a firm reply, do not misunderstand. Earlier I was wondering why some other Canadian and American editors had a say in Sri Lankan articles. If you want to delete this tbh I don't really mind, just did this as a good will gesture, I don't lose anything from this, this kind of Sri Lankan history is very poorly recorded online. Also just curious, who edits articles like this - Chamara Sampath Dassanayake?. Again do not take it the wrong way, I'm fairly new to this. Cheers.
ShArk50008: You do realize that this is the English Wiki, right? I mean, you don't have to only speak English or come from a predominantly English speaking country to edit or create articles here but this wiki has rules for what should and should not be included on its platform. Wiki's from other languages have their own. I have never attacked someone because of their nationality, race, creed or gender/orientation. And don't say you weren't attacking "editors from White Western First World Countries." You totally were attacking. First, I'm not white, but even if I was, how does that preclude me from applying this encyclopedia's guidelines and policies for inclusion to ANY article? Second, you don't know my situation or the situation of anyone else who edits here, except that they are able and well enough to have a means to edit online. This is not an attack on Sri Lankan history. This is an AfD to decide the notability of this article and its inclusion in this encyclopedia. Personally, I am fine with it being included. But, according to guidelines and policies it most likely shouldn't be included. That's why I voted to delete. If you want you can try to get the rules changed. I'd encourage it and probably support you. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 13:51, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, after giving careful consideration to the matter I have to conclude that it fails WP:NOTGENEALOGY.

An article about an insignificant jigsaw-puzzle "brand". With no articles indicating either its significance or popularity in mainstream culture. At the best, should be redirected to its owner's article
J. W. Spear & SonsDaiyusha (talk) 05:31, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It's not an insignificant jigsaw-puzzle "brand". A board game that was produced for 55 years which played a significant role in the entertainment of thousands of families during wars of the 20th century and are still owned by thousands of families. They manufactured 100's of puzzle topics and thousands of copies. A simple search on Google, board games sites or even Ebay can prove how many this "brand" has a significance. J. W. Spear & Sons produced the puzzle for 18 years while the previous company Hayeter and Co founded in 1928 was around for 42 years.

A company article by a disclosed paid editor that has been draftified 3 times and was unilaterally moved back to mainspace in all of these cases. Looking at Google Translate, the given sources don't seem to establish that this passes NCORP, and a BEFORE search didn't give me any usable English-language coverage either. Someone with knowledge of Swedish may have better luck, but I think it's time that we get this one out of the draftification cycle. Best, Blablubbs|talk 12:21, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I have discussed improvements in the Teahouse as well as with reviewers. I got the suggestion to add "Stub" to the article, which I did and therefore moved it to mainspace again. Please point me in the right direction if I am mismanaging this, but I do not think the stub should be "moved for deletion" I see many similar stub articles with sometimes only the company webpage as reference. For reference look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Swedish_company_stubs. I assume the stub tag is included for this reason. For example, I have included multiple references in addition to the company's annual report. As for notability, the company is no Apple or Microsoft, but it a rather large company in Sweden employing around 1,600 people all over Europe. Again for reference, one can compare it to the other companies in the Swedish stub category.
Lastly I think the stub article is written in a a factual manner based on publicly available information. I have complied with disclosure requirements of wikipedia.Gustav Addnode (talk) 12:39, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Gustav Addnode, it was explicitly pointed out to you that given your status as a disclosed paid editor, you should be submitting articles through AfC, as is considered best practice; you still decided to move it back to mainspace three times, which essentially constitutes move warring. As for notability, it is only determined by significant coverage in independent, reliable sources – if the references don't establish this, the article cannot be included. It's true that we have lots of company articles that don't establish notability, but that is not an argument for adding another one to that list. Finally, a stub tag does not impact the notability requirements and I don't read the teahouse comments as a suggestion to add one and then move to mainspace. Best, Blablubbs|talk 12:59, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I was advised to add the stub tag, not explicitly move it to mainspace afterwards. I can see that I misunderstood this, as I thought that the stub tag implied "WIP" and didnt need to go thorugh that process. I am new to Wiki and still learing. The correct thing would have been to add the tag, and then submitted it through AfC again. Again, as for notability, there is coverage in independent adn reliable sources - and as you stated, maybe someone with knowledge in Swedish can help evaluate/confirm this. So, instead of deleting a factual article, moving it to AfC with the stub tag might be the best way forward? Thanks for taking the time to discuss and help with the article.Gustav Addnode (talk) 13:25, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Gustav Addnode people who comment on this AfD may decide to !vote for draftification if they think that's the best option. As a sidenote, I don't see where someone recommended adding a stub tag, or indeed, that this implied a work in progress. Quisqualis merely said that a WP:stub may be all that is possible. As for the sources currently in the article:
is a company profile and doesn't constitute significant coverage.
is published by the company and hence not independent. Three is an interview, which are usually not suitable for establishing notability.
is a routine announcement, essentially a re-hashed press release.
is a two-sentence article – again a routine announcement.
is another announcement
In short, I don't see anything here that is sufficient to establish notability, I'm afraid. Blablubbs|talk 19:14, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OK! The sources are similar to other company pages (which, I agree, does not have to mean that they are independent/notable). However I think that the combination of articles , interviews and some public company information is a solid base for this stub article. It provides useful information but lacks the breadth and coverage expected from an "full" wiki article - for that reason it should be classified as a stub. According to wiki guidlines a stub should only be deleted if it has little verifiable information, or if its subject has no apparent notability - which i do not think applies to the discussed article. On your sidenote, I was refering to that specific comment "stub may be all that is possible", which implies that a stub is a suitable form of the article. As for the WIP, that was my own interpretation of the word in the context. Thanks for the clarification about the voting process.Gustav Addnode (talk) 20:29, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Gustav Addnode, other stuff exists regarding the sources on other articles, and interviews normally are not independent sources, nor is "public company information". As WP:NCORP and WP:GNG clearly state, the company needs significant coverage in multiple, reliable and independent sources to be presumed notable enough for inclusion. I will avoid !voting in this AfD as I have don't have the ability to run a search in Swedish, but I'd still like to address some of the points you make. JavaHurricane 07:10, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – There are a lot of articles on the company in Swedish on Google News search, e.g. in Computer Sweden in January 2020 and March 2020, and in other publications, but they are almost all recycled press releases (e.g. the two I've linked here). There is a passing mention here; I've no idea about the reliability of the source but it's not WP:SIGCOV. The best I've found is this article in Svenska Dagbladet, which appears to be a fairly in-depth independent financial analysis, and the source is respectable, but one swallow does not a summer make. Of course it's not in the current article, despite being more reliable than the sources that are, because it recommends not buying their shares! I got bored after four pages of press releases but somebody more diligent might be able to find something more. Wham2001 (talk) 14:39, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
– I think this might also be a reliable source Aktiespararna (perhaps even more relevant than the stock analysis from Svd?). Another one: Avanza
These articles are meeting the requirements WP:SIGCOVGustav Addnode (talk) 16:51, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Gustav Addnode: Avanza might be, but it's definitely not sufficient for establishing notability on its own – Aktiesparma is not coverage, but a mere company listing. As a sidenote: Could you start indenting your comments? Thanks. Blablubbs|talk 17:24, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
– If not on its own, maybe together with the other referenced news sources (computer sweden and DI). Gustav Addnode (talk) 17:39, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The DI and Computer Sweden sources are recycled press releases - they're of no value for establishing notability and shouldn't be used unattributed in the article. I agree with Blablubbs about Aktiesparma - it's a routine listing. I don't know anything about Avanza but on the face of it the source appears to be an investment guide produced by the publishing arm of an investment management company. So far, AFAICT, there are two usable sources (Avanza and SvD), both of them investment guides. I wouldn't consider that enough to meet WP:GNG. Wham2001 (talk) 10:09, 1 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. I could find no significant coverage of the subject to satisfy WP:GNG; his rank (sergeant) and lack of bravery award fall short of WP:SOLDIER. The only sources in the article relate to his death in action, he has a passing mention (12 words) in Bowman (2016). Lambo (no year), appears to be a chapter of Killingray (Africans in Britain, 1994) which states that he joined his squadron in Winter 1943-44, took part in a raid on Berlin on 24-25 March and died in the 30 March raid and nothing further.

This two-line stub has no sources and has been tagged as such since 2009. According to List_of_giant_squid_specimens_and_sightings#45 this seems to be another name for Glovers Harbour, which was just deleted at RfD (see this discussion). Like Glovers Harbour, I think red links here are best until a properly sourced stub can be developed under the most appropriate name and then redirects put in place as appropriate.

Keep: Politicians who hold office at the national level are generally considered notable per WP:POLITICIAN. Scorpions13256 (talk) 06:48, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep — Per the criteria used for politicians in WP:NPOL the subject is presumed notable. Celestina007 (talk) 18:53, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, subject passes WP:NPOL as he served in a national legislative body. Devonian Wombat (talk) 02:01, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Obviously the article should be improved if possible, but members of national legislatures are extended an automatic pass of WP:NPOL #1 with no further notability tests applied on top of the fact of having served in the legislature. Thing being, a person who served in the 1960s and 1970s is not going to have had press coverage that Googles well — their coverage will have to be retrieved from archives, but it certainly existed at the time. Politicians get press coverage, that's a given. Bearcat (talk) 21:55, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BLP of a musician that does not meet WP:MUSICBIO. The article says his songs have audiences on streaming channels but never succeeded on terrestrial radio. His songs never charted and he didn’t win any awards. The article is really built around a single review of the album he released in October, which isn’t enough to show notability.

Non notable politician who fails to satisfy any criterion from WP:NPOL. Being a “youth chief” of a political party in no way confers notability. A before search shows WP:GNG isn’t satisfied either. Celestina007 (talk) 05:42, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Amazing woman that I hope continues to press forward.

Non-notable association football training program and team. The references show that its players play against other teams and receive news coverage. We knew that, and that is not significant coverage. Does not satisfy general notability. Sports notability and in particular association football notability does not refer specifically to teams or programs, but the team does not play at the fully professional level. Some of its graduates do play at the fully professional level, but that would only qualify if the coverage satisfied general notability, which it does not.

Comment - the article suggests that it has passed WP:AfC. I'm guessing that is false? Spiderone 09:50, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. Spiderone 09:54, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment to User:Spiderone - The message on the article was incorrect. You are presumably referring to a template message that says that the article was created through AFC, and the reviewer is in the process of closing out the request. Yes, the template message says that. The template message is wrong. It really means that the article was in draft space and was submitted for AFC review, and was then moved into article space. This normally does not mean that it was accepted by a reviewer, because when a reviewer accepts the draft using the script, that tag is removed. It normally means that it was moved by a Move command. This was commonly done by the draft author, bypassing or ignoring AFC, or move-warring with a reviewer who had sent it to draft space. Sometimes it was done by a neutral editor who is not a reviewer; in that case, it will be closed out normally. In this case, it was moved to article space by the author, not by a reviewer, and the template message is wrong. I think that the template message should be changed, but that is a different issue. Does that answer your reasonable question? Robert McClenon (talk) 16:37, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it does. Thanks. It looks like the author has draftified again while this discussion has taken place. Is the AfD still allowed to proceed now that the article is just a draft? Spiderone 16:46, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Spiderone Ideally, I would say not but this article creator hasn't been conducting actions that would seem to be in good faith so I'm not sure how the procedure relates to that. Given the historical data on this article it would seem it's been drafted and moved into article space multiple times, seemingly as the creator wants. That game could go on forever. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 16:53, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. I think the discussion should continue until consensus is reached and that the article creator should follow the AfC process. It's actually a really beneficial process and it's such a shame that so many editors kick off when their articles get moved to draft. Spiderone 17:18, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - In doing a diligent before search in accordance with WP:BEFORE I find no evidence this academy has received significant coverage by any reliable media outlets. Beyond the typical promotional pieces, instagram account or facebook there is little else. If there are professional players who attended and graduated from this academy then maybe a category is warranted. If there are articles on those players then the category can be added to those articles and a list will be auto-created from that. The academy, as it stands now, does not pass WP:GNG, shameful as that may be. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 15:31, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: The article has been moved to draft yet again despite an 'only warning' posted at the creator's talk page yesterday. I have brought it to the attention of the Admin. who restored it previously and who also left the warning. Eagleash (talk) 12:25, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Once a deletion discussion is started, it normally runs for seven days, and moving or blanking it after the discussion is in progress is considered disruptive. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:05, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The Wikipedia community (which we are) and the closer can decide to move an article to draft space. Deleting an article does not (normally) preclude re-creating the article in draft space. I, personally, have no objection to the article being draftified. This started because the author was moving the article from draft space to article space when it was not ready for article space. The author could have proposed to create the article in draft space (except that they have now been blocked). Robert McClenon (talk) 02:05, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - However, returning it (twice) to draft after an AfD has been started is disruptive and has led to the creator being blocked, as noted. Eagleash (talk) 09:15, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Adidas Yeezy#Clothing though without a strong consensus for this particular outcome. There was minimal justification available for keeping the article in this discussion, with other participants split between deletion and a redirect to a list with no further information - so the late merge by BD2412 seems to offer the best method of removing the article that lacks notability while still maintaining sourced content that a reader might be looking for.
The consensus here can therefore be summarised as "remove the article, without a strong consensus as to exactly how" - and now the presence of merged content generally requires this edit history to be maintained somewhere. If there's concerns that this redirect is a little surprising to some searchers, then that may be a separate discussion. ~ mazcatalk 14:13, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. It is not apparent that any kind of WP:BEFORE was done, but the subject gets nearly 9000 Google News hits, so it seems unlikely.BD2412T 03:03, 6 January 2021 (UTC) On further review, there is not enough of intersection between coverage that is in depth and coverage that is reliable to make this worth arguing over. Therefore, redirect to List of Penthouse Pets#2010–2019 (unless details of the ad campaign are added to Adidas Yeezy)Adidas Yeezy#Clothing, to which the details have now been copied. BD2412T 04:21, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A raw Google search is not useful for determining notability. In this case, most of the first page of hits are unreliable sources like International Business Times and trivial mentions.

Delete Interviews, light coverage of modeling work for allegedly bearing a resemblance to a Kardashian, but said coverage is about the "nude Kardashians" as a general topic rather than of this subject specifically. 1 of ~600 Penthouse Pets of the Month, not significant. Zaathras (talk) 16:41, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I would wager that the subject is somewhat more significant than the typical Penthouse Pet of the Month, which I think is borne out by there having been nearly a quarter million page views since the creation of the page. That is why I now favor redirecting the title, so that traffic will continue to be captured to some degree. BD2412T 17:37, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per BD2412; does not really seem like there's enough coverage for an article in its own right, but no reason for the subject not to be mentioned in another article (the fact of this person existing certainly is not in dispute). jp×g 22:13, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete on the basis that no one has been able to find multiple in-depth sources which provide significant coverage. The only 'keep' argument was on the basis of WP:SOURCESMAYEXIST which is an argument to avoid in a deletion discussion. I don't really think the redirect is particularly useful, and wikipedia isn't an indiscriminate collector of information, so i vote delete. Apples&Manzanas (talk) 15:47, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
An alternative would be to merge the content on Yeezy Season 6 in to Adidas Yeezy#Clothing, which mentions Season 6 but does not contain details of the well-reported ad campaign. The presence of this article subject, along with that of Paris Hilton, is a key point mentioned in such coverage. BD2412T 17:03, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Why would it be astonishing for the name of a model to redirect to the most prominent advertising campaign featuring that model, and for which news articles on the campaign generally mention the model? In any case, the original edit history of the is required to be maintained somewhere under the GFDL. If not here, it can be moved to a subpage of Talk:Adidas Yeezy.

Keep and rename: I ran across this person because of separate research on COVID-19 responses by local governments, and I was surprised that the person who in effect serves as the deputy mayor of New Jersey's third largest city did not have a Wikipedia entry. I was also surprised to see that the Wikipedia entry for Paterson, New Jersey did not even have updated information to include her. "Kathleen Long" appears in numerous newspaper articles weekly, and it appears that she often serves as the chief spokesman of the municipal government in Paterson and the point of contact for government operations. For instance, a recent Google search gave the following results showing six newspaper articles in the last three weeks alone. I also noticed that she attends every city council meeting as a representative of the city administration, and is all over the city's YouTube page. Perhaps it would be better to change from Kathleen M.

Comment: I'm not voting, but I'm just mentioning some things. COI editors are told to go through AFC and mention their COI (which they did on the article's talk page). I approved the draft because I think that it has some chance of being notable based on where it was developed and who funded it. I also took into account that it could potentially be merged into a related article if it doesn't have independent notability per an AfD. While I do agree that notability is a concern, I don't think the warning tag on the creator's talk page about COI was acceptable. SL93 (talk) 18:17, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The research behind this language has a good reputation in a subfield, implementation of DATALOG-based languages, whose importance is seeing a surge of recent recognition (cf. Huang, Green & Loo 2011, Datalog and Emerging Applications: An Interactive Tutorial). The article that introduced the language implementation effort has an h-index of 11, respectable for a 4-y.o. language. The article is well-written, with less puffery than is typical for PL articles without a trace of CoI editing. As a general point, I think this AfD is undermining to the AfC process: if an article graduates from the AfC process, a little care putting together the AfD is in order, and to give as the whole deletion rationale "No evidence of notability" is careless when the first paragraph of the article ends "Two notable features of Flix are its type and effect system and its support for first-class Datalog constraints" and the references section contains two peer-reviewed articles whose title mentions that language by name. — Charles Stewart(talk) 20:19, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As I said, I saw 160 edits by JorKadeen in the history of the Flix (programming_language) page. I didn't catch the fact that those were done in userspace and then the history was moved. I have apologized for my error, but let me apologize again: sorry about that.
"It is discussed in reliable sources as significant in its particular field. References that cite trivia do not fulfill this requirement."
Maybe. Could you please list the reliable sources discuss Flix as being significant in its particular field? The source you cite above ( Datalog and Emerging Applications: An Interactive Tutorial). does not contain the word "Flix". It says "We discuss two active commercial systems, LogicBlox and Semmle", "We also review two important academic systems from the classical age of Datalog research, Coral and LDL++", and "Finally, we highlight the ongoing BOOM project, based on a Datalog dialect called Dedalus" (I believe that this is the BOOM project at [ http://boom.cs.berkeley.edu/ ] not the one at [ https://www.theboomprojectbook.com/ ] that shows up in a Google search.)
"It is the subject of instruction at multiple grade schools, high schools, universities or post-graduate programs. This criterion does not apply to software merely used in instruction."
Nope, Flix fails this one.
"It is the subject of multiple printed third-party manuals, instruction books, or reliable reviews,[2] written by independent authors and published by independent publishers."
Nope.
"It has been recognized as having historical or technical significance by reliable sources. However, the mere existence of reviews does not mean the app is notable. Reviews must be significant, from a reliable source, or assert notability."
Nope again.
In addition, most of the sources are papers by authors of the language (Magnus Madsen[10]) you tube videos by the same authors or citations to flix.dev.
The last thing I want to do is to step on any AFC toes, but if you are going to claim that we need to "take extra care if an article graduates from the AfC process" then when the page leaves AFC it should clearly show that reliable secondary sources establish notability. I should have looked at the page and seen that it was obviously notable. Instead here I am, asking you for evidence of notability after you cited as evidence an abstract that doesn't mention Flix. I suspect that the full paper either doesn't mention Flix or only mentions it in passing. --Guy Macon (talk) 02:10, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry: my complaints were rather heavy-handed in my comment; it can be easy to overlook that an article indeed graduated from the AfC process. With regards to notablity, the article I linked to predates Flix by several years and is about the recent resurgence of interest in Datalog in general and discusses several desirable features for software support that Flix satisfies; for an article that indicates what the motivation of Flix is in particular and how it is well-suited to achieve it, look at Flix and its Implementation: A Language for Static Analysis which situates the value of Datalog-like languages in expressing static analyses declaratively and the value of particular original features of Flix with regards to this goal, namely the ability to specify arbitrary lattices as constraints on Datalog queries and the value of being able to manipulate Datalog programs as first-class values. Static analysis is a fundamental technique used in compiler optimisation. With regards to NSOFT, I think the references meet the 1st criterion. — Charles Stewart(talk) 06:45, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Research on Flix is supported by a grant of 2.5M DKK (~400,000 USD) from the Independent Research Fund Denmark (DDF), a public funding agency in Denmark (see article ref 2).
Flix is the subject of 2 papers published at OOPSLA and 1 paper published at PLDI (see article ref 12, 5, 6). OOPSLA and PLDI are both considered top-venues for programming language research. Both are ranked A+ by CORE [ https://www.core.edu.au/ ]. OOPSLA and PLDI are peer-reviewed, double blind, conferences that are part of the PACMPL journal [ https://dl.acm.org/journal/pacmpl ].
The original Flix paper (see article ref 12), now 4 years old, has 59 citations according to Google Scholar. This includes papers published at other A+ ranked conferences, including POPL, ICFP, and OOPSLA.
A selection of non-trivial references to Flix with between a few sentences or multiple paragraphs of text (this is not a complete list nor is it in any particular order and can be added to the references of the article):
Flix is the subject of additional papers published at ISSTA, CC, and PPDP (ranked A, A, and B by CORE). These venues are also peer-reviewed.
Flix is used as part of two courses at AU; a pre-talent track course on logic programming and a master-level course on program analysis.
Flix has been the subject of multiple bachelor/master theses at Aarhus University and at the University of Waterloo, Canada.
Flix has been discussed multiple times on Reddit, HackerNews, LambdaTheUltimate, and other social media.
As stated on the talk page and on the article talk page, I have a conflict of interest. JorKadeen (talk) 13:43, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Chalst: If we allow it to be in the wiki, we have been gamed. The article contains very few independent sources. Anything with Magnus Madsen is not independent. Anything with Flix.dev in the source is not independent. Once I remove those items from the 29 sources provided, there are perhaps six sources or so that might be RS. I cannot see them though, and they appear to be theses and the like. These sources and text have been placed on wiki (in draft) by a COI editor, who also advocates for it above in this discussion. The article itself is a whopping 50KB. the article on PHP is 112KB by comparison. This a huge puffed-up article for something supported by very few in-depth sources. it is an advertising effort. It is not as important as it makes itself out to be. Possibly (talk) 05:51, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I replied to your !vote because your delete rationale began with a false accusation. I do not care if Wikipedia is 'gamed' if that results in well-written, neutral, verifiable articles being produced without causing undue work for the Wikipedia community. I count four peer-reviewed articles among the sources that substantively discuss Flix coming from three entirely independent research efforts. Additionally, articles written by project members that are published in peer-reviewed conference proceedings and journals are reliable, though not neutral, sources - while they will not count towards SIGCOV, they are perfectly acceptable sources per WP:V - but your delete rationale seems to be treating these sources as if they were self-published or advertising materials. You have provided no delete rationale that is consistent with both the facts and policy (article length is not an accepted delete justification, cf. WP:ASZ). — Charles Stewart(talk) 07:49, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The vast majority of the citations on this article are primary sources, and on deeper examination, those that are not sourced directly to Flix are to papers written by those who are affiliated with the lab at the university where this prog lang was developed. Pure unadulterated WP:PROMO. It does nothing for the integrity of the encyclopedia to include this sort of COI material. These non-independent sources do not constitute SIGCOV whatsoever. Fails our policy/guideline criteria for notability. Netherzone (talk) 02:59, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: As the editor that accepted the AFC submission, I am convinced by the deletion arguments that the sources are not independent of the subject.

This is a little messy and complicated: the Colombian footballer is notable... but the problem is, this article isn't really about the footballer. This article was originally created about a very minor Venezuelan actor – you can see the original version of the article here. Then an IP decided to overwrite the original article with the footballer with this edit, and the two articles became conflated, so the current version now describes the subject as both "an ex-actor and a footballer". As I stated, the footballer passes WP:N but already has his own more complete article at Elvis González (footballer), so this incorrect semi-duplicate version of his biography is not needed, and is factually wrong in its description. And it doesn't seem worth reverting to the version about the actor, as he isn't notable... one minor role in a Chilean horror movie, and selected as a cast member in a TV series which ultimately never got made.

Otherwise it might be best to discuss Ibrahim as part of the articles on his two related artists. FalconK (talk) 23:14, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep, per the considerable expansion that's taken place since the article's nomination in late December. It's gone from 5 references to 13, and its content has gone from a couple sentences to a couple paragraphs. While I don't know much about the SunFM awards (or what constitutes a "well-known" music award in the Maldives), it's a fairly small country (about 500,000 people live there) so I am inclined to lean towards the benefit of the doubt. jp×g 22:08, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Saratoga Elementary School (North Omaha, Nebraska)[edit]
A defunct [14] elementary school. All references in the article are dead but [15] summarizes the history. Being "one of the first public schools in the state of Nebraska" isn't a sufficient claim of notability; the building has been replaced multiple times so it isn't a notable architectural landmark either. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:05, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep From what I can tell, this defunct elementary school has an important role in the development of public education in Nebraska (and specifically Omaha). The article seems to be similar to other articles about elementary schools. LeBron4 (talk) 02:54, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The links are dead because the article is old. The school was one of the first in a major American city, and the result of a pioneer education system from 150 years ago. It should be kept. Freechild (talk) 05:47, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
DeleteWP:NSCHOOL says that primary schools need to pass either WP:GNG or WP:ORG. This school appears to pass neither. Other than the single northomahahistory.com reference mentioned above, I'm not seeing any in-depth coverage of this school in any independent sources. Neither am I seeing any independent evidence that this school has any significance beyond potentially being one of the oldest public schools in its town. CThomas3 (talk) 06:04, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete It takes extremely strong sourcing to justify keeping an article for an elementary school, which is not present here.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:00, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: The article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NSCHOOL / (WP:ORGCRIT), lacks WP:ISWP:RS with WP:SIGCOV that address the subject directly and in-depth. Four of the five sources in the article are from the school or local government, not IS RS for establishing notability. The final source is 404 with no indication it had SIGCOV. The above keep votes have provided no additional sources showing SIGCOV from IS RS. There is no indication or assertion that this meets WP:NBUILD. I'm sure it's a wonderful school, but the article does not have SIGCOV showing notability. // Timothy :: talk 00:57, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Giving a little more time to see if GNG compliant sourcing can be found given the claims of significance made by some keep !voters.

The result was keep. Despite some disagreement, a consensus feels that the sources provided by GoldenAgeFan are suitable to show notability. If an individual could add to article, that would be appreciated Nosebagbear (talk) 14:09, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No reliable sources came out from an independent research and none are in the article. the subject doesn't appear to be notable AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 14:51, 27 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Google news searches show numerous articles about this person, both as Tom Judson and as Gus Mattox. The article is poorly referenced and quite incomplete (leaving out his regular role in a TV series, for example, but the deletion nomination seems to have been made in haste. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:38, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Ssilvers: Nice, why don't you share with us these wonderful sources. I couldn't find any convincing sources that actually proved notoriety but i might have missed something. if you found any reliable sources which establish notoriety please share them with us so if u don't want to add them yourself someone else can do it. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 19:25, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There are a good amount of sources out there (ranging from the NY Times to gay and theater websites/publications) covering Judson and his projects, ranging from his relatively short, but successful porn career, his one man shows (Canned Ham, The Tom Judson Show, and Nature Boy), his house flipping side job, and Charles Busch's musical director. So at the very least, meets the GNG and those sources could be used to flesh out the article. A sampling of them. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 02:49, 2 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@GoldenAgeFan1: none of them can be considered in any way an independent, in-depth cover of the subject. they are all just passing mentions or promotional stuff and this is the reason why those sources are not in the article yet... I would like to see any independent, reliable, extended cover of the subject... 10 lines is not extended. unfortunately here most of the times the only thing that matters is how many vote u had even though those votes are not supported by any fact. --AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 02:36, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
None of those looked like they were done by someone connected to him (hence independent), most of those sources I cited cover him and/or his works to non-trivial degree and none them look like press releases to me (something that is promotional). It doesn't matter that they haven't been put in the article yet or the state of the article, it's just that they exist. See WP:NEXIST. I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that there were only "10 lines" of coverage in the said coverage linked above. I'd love to know what you think makes those sources unreliable or unsuitable, especially the NY Times one (widely considered to be generally a reliable source here on wikipedia). No one else so far seems to agree with your assessment that Judson isn't notable enough to vote delete and there is almost always a delete vote or two on anything porn related (although Judson has coverage relating to others things). The closing Wikipedia admin also makes a call on the arguments and evidence provided, so it takes more than just one or more adamant person(s) to decide whether an article is kept or deleted.

Keep Looked at the first three sources provided by GoldenAgeFan1 above and didn't need to see the rest or conduct a BEFORE. Significant coverage in reliable sources are met. Subject passes WP:GNG, if nothing else. No SNG's needed to keep this article. Don't care what the notable subject does or how they became notable. Once criteria is met they can receive an article for inclusion.. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 19:53, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival Awards South[edit]
Nominating this article for deletion, and note that there are content forks that I think should also be deleted:
1st Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival Awards South
2nd Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival Awards South
Before anyone comments on this, it is imperative that you get some background information present at WP:DADASAHEB. If it's too much to read, the short version is:
Dadasaheb Phalke was a pioneer in Indian cinema. Every year the Indian government issues a single award in his name, the Dadasaheb Phalke Award, to a person who has made an extraordinary contribution to film. It is like a lifetime achievement award.
Award mills are rampant in India and they are used for promotional reasons, including flooding articles here at Wikipedia. There are many awards that use Phalke's name, and this appears to be a film festival that uses his name, and issues awards with his name on them.
This festival appears to be a neophyte that doesn't meet the WP:GNG. If Anil Mishra is the founder of this festival, there is only one article I can find on Google News that talks about the festival and him, and it is not independent. While the press does appear at these festivals to take photos and report on winners, that alone is not sufficient IMO to meet the GNG, and until the community decides on specific notability standards for awards, we should still require that the media report about the festival/award entity itself, not just cover the glitz of it.
Experienced editors know that per WP:FILMCRITICLIST, we are discouraged from adding awards to articles unless there is an existing article about the award, and in this case, the creator of the film festival article appears to have created it just so they could then add the award to various articles.[16][17][18].

promotional article on non-notable model moved directly from draft by the new contributor in an evasion of the purpose of AFC. The refs are the usual promotional interviews for the field, and are not RSs. For example, the Marie Claire "article" was 99% written by the subject (or perhaps their press agent) The NY Post article is a somewhat more sophisticated version because they seem to have rewritten the text instead of putting it in quotations, but its apparent purpose is to showcase the photos, complete with prices for the clothing. Harpers Bazaar uses some of the same photos, but is devoted to advertising a different set of products, again complete with prices and purchase links. DGG ( talk ) 00:21, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. It includes what commercials she’s been in more than about her. Should get deleted, or should be improved by someone. No sources? I’m not choosing speedy deletion, because there’s a chance that someone can step in to improve this article. Vamsi20 (talk) 00:45, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the sourcing does not indicate this model is notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:01, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Bah, I want to keep this one because she's gorgeous and has seemingly used her position to benefit others. The sources provided feel too much like a commercial or belong in the feel good section of the local newspaper. Her vibes are wonderful but I'm leaning delete. Still looking through a search to find anything that would offer hope of passing GNG. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 18:17, 6 January 2021 (UTC) Edited to delete. I can't make it work. Beautiful person and hopefully someone picks up on her charity work and writes more. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 18:27, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete — like Johnpacklambert already stated there isn’t just enough solid sources that substantiates or proves her notability. Celestina007 (talk) 18:35, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Also, why does it say she studied in an Ivy League school instead of the actual university name? On Wikipedia, every point must have to source to back it up. Still leaning for delete. Edit: I would lean for keep if somebody improved it (not me, I don’t know things about this model). And whoever improves the article should add proper, reliable sourcing.
