Promo piece on a non-notable sports/leisure facility. The only source cited is primary, and a search finds nothing beyond the usual social media and directory listings, and not many of them, either. (I've tried with different renderings of 'Bale', too — nothing doing.) Fails WP:GNG. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:23, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article doesn't meet the requirements of the WP:BIO because his company is not a leader in its industry yet. Unfortunately Fedotov also doesn't meet the requirements for WP:SPORTSPERSON. The editors of ru-wiki have been discussing his importance as a businessman and sportsman for over a year. As a result, his biography was deleted. So I propose to remove the English version too until the time when the company is sufficiently influential in the market, and this can be confirmed by sources. Ontrix (talk) 08:16, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hello everyone! When I've created this article, Fedotov was frequently seen in the news, and as inexperienced as I was, I thought he was worth mentioning as a sportsmen, he was a member of the German national under-19 basketball team in 2003-2005. Also, while studying at the Buffalo University, he was a forward-center of the Buffalo Bulls men's basketball team. I'm not sure what criteria there are for sportsmen' notability, but if it's not enough for Wiki, let it be removed, then.—ELindas (talk) 22:03, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
He doesn't continue his sports career. Youthful achievements in themselves are not significant. He started his business career in large private and public companies but quickly left there as well. He started a personal business and hasn't developed it to a wiki-significant size yet. The article looks slick but I propose to wait for unambiguous evidence of its significance.Ontrix (talk) 12:11, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sportsman who does not pass WP:GNG or WP:NOLY, as he did not win any olympic medals. I could find no significant coverage of him, indeed the only info I could find at all was that he finished dead last in the heat. Devonian Wombat (talk) 22:01, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete we have no significant sources that provide coverage. He did nothing that would meet notability guidelines. There is no good reason to redirect the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:03, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Athletics at the 1976 Summer Olympics – Men's 800 metres is better than deletion, as it will point anyone looking for this person to all that is really known. Redirects are cheap. I'm not sure how User:Johnpacklambert managed to search for sources at 17:03 after making 2 other unrelated edits at 17:02 - I have repeated concerns about his competency in the AFD arena. Bearcat is correct though - the only coverage I could find of him was the same New York Times article - for those without a NY Times subscription it's also available at ProQuest122869633Nfitz (talk) 19:24, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That wasn't me, just for the record, it was Devonian Wombat. Which is not to say I disagree with it at all, but it wasn't my statement originally. Bearcat (talk) 16:18, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per above. We don't have enough sourcing here to support a standalone article — the old consensus that non-medalling Olympic athletes are automatically notable regardless of sourceability problems has been deprecated, and their notability now depends more strongly on actually getting them over WP:GNG on the sourcing than it used to — but since he is named in the target article, there's value in retaining the redirect so that somebody who does look for information about him will land somewhere relevant.

Delete Self-published (the publisher Amerisearch, Inc. is his own company). I don't find reviews in any reliable sources (Publishers Weekly, Kirkus). His books do sell on Amazon but as we know you can sell anything there. I do see some of his books in libraries, but until there are reviews or some other indication of notability I don't think he meets NAUTH.

Lack of notability; the only reliable sources are a review from Pocket Gamer, and an article from Destructoid about the cancelled video game adaptation by Nihilistic Software. The Destructoid article is somewhat vague about any details about the game, and no platforms seem to have been announced, but there are many categories on the article for various cancelled platform ports, none of which I'm able to find a source for. This also seems to be a Java ME exclusive title, and no Android or iOS versions exist. The Pocket Gamer review goes into detail, but I was unable to find any other reviews of the game.

The article in question fails to say anything conclusive or non-discernible about its subject matter. Moreover, what little is said is vague and unclear.

Delete. In terms of the title, there is nothing to indicate that this term has any broad use or accepted meaning (Meaning both WP:NEO and WP:GNG apply). In terms of content/purpose, even if we were to keep the title, what would we populate it with (I can't conceive of where it would be redirected, and there are insufficient sources to support any meaningful standalone content). In terms of the topic itself, it makes zero sense to me personally (from a historical, political or geographic point-of-view). In terms of the current text/description of the topic, why would hatred or fear of the Welsh by the English have anything to do with an irredentist claim of England over Ireland? As far as I can see, there is no policy reason (or value to the project) to retain this title or its content. Mine is a firm "delete" recommendation.

I can find no significant independent coverage of the WordPress Foundation itself that is not just coverage of Wordpress, having searched ProQuest, Google Scholar, and the internet in general. As it does not meet WP:ORGCRITE independent of its flagship product, the page should be a redirect to Wordpress. signed, Rosguilltalk 15:46, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The only one of those that has what I would consider significant coverage of the WordPress Foundation is the Torquemag article, which appears to be a semi-crowdsourced site with an unclear relationship to WordPress per its about page [1]. Even if we were to assume that it is fully independent and reliable, we would need additional articles in other reliable and independent sources providing a similar depth of coverage to demonstrate notability. signed, Rosguilltalk 16:43, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Torquemag is at most relationship to WP Engine, which has no affiliated to the WordPress Foundation (except, of course, they use WordPress-software, as do thousands of other companies). WP Engine is one of the many companies that offer hosting service. See here: https://wpengine.com/ -- Avoinlähde (talk) 02:31, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
...so a bunch of blogs without demonstrable reliability (except for maybe [2]), that all exclusively cover the Foundation in the context of Wordpress? I'm not seeing a compelling case for splitting. Content about the foundation should be included in a section of Wordpress based on what you've provided here. N.b. that as far as Torquemag is concerned, the semi-crowdsourced nature is as much, arguably more, of a concern for reliability than its connection to WP directly (see WP:UGC). signed, Rosguilltalk 14:47, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect, per nomination. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:39, 18 April 2022 (UTC)Merge, I think it makes more sense to add it to the Wordpress article under it's own section based on Mebigrouxboy's comment. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:29, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The articles (WordPress and WordPress Foundation) deal with the topic from different angles (software and organization behind it) and it does not make sense to cover them in one article.

CommentNeverTry4MeNgrewal1 - how do sources distinguish this from Punjabi Nationalism? The article states this is a linguistic movement (though we have Punjabi Language Movement), but it appears to me to be a term synonymous with movements around Punjabi identity and nationhood, albeit with different implications in Pakistan, in India and also acting as bridge for Punjabis in both states. I'm not necessarily against keeping the article, but it's not clear to me the distinctions with the already existing articles. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 06:46, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Goldsztajn Don't worry, I am on it to expand the article. I have gone through citations and it will help to expand the article. What I have learnt so far is, editors should expand/wikify the articles, instead of nominating for AfD. - Signed by NeverTry4MeTalk 06:52, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @NeverTry4Me - whether the article is expanded or not, will not necessarily change the outcome here. We need to be able to show that there are reliable sources to justify stand alone articles, otherwise it will be necessary I suspect to merge this article with Punjabi nationalism. What sources allow us to distinguish Punjabiyat from Punjabi nationalism? Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 09:35, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Goldsztajn thank you for your valuable inputs. I honor your statement. Per my opinion, I have found "Punjabiyat" is NOTEABLE but there are some explanatory contradictions that differ from Punjabi nationalism. Of course we need to reach to an outcome about the subject.
I am trying to ascertain whether it should be Merged to Punjabi nationalism or expand as a standalone.
Going through tons of citation about Punjabiyat, till now what I have found is "Clean-up and major edit".
I honor your decision to not to agree with me, but I am searching/trying to find ways against AfD. Hope you w3ill understand my poor English. Regard - Signed by NeverTry4MeTalk 09:59, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Procedural Keep This is potentially quite complex, I doubt there is going to be a simple answer. "This interdisciplinary volume seeks to consider the notion of 'Punjabiyat', a loosely defined term often used to describe a sentiment of belonging or attachment to Punjab and/or the foundations of a shared, cross-religious, cross-caste, cross-class culture."[2] "Punjabiyat or Punjabi identity evokes simultaneous contradictory images of a splintered identity, yet a potentially powerful economic, political and cultural force."[3] "This paper demonstrates that a strong sense of Punjabiyat or Punjabi nationalism never existed in the undivided Punjab at any point in history." [4]
This is clearly not a "random buzzword pushed intermittently in online content". I'm not convinced AfD is the appropriate location to resolve this issue. Regards Goldsztajn (talk) 10:26, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Certainly my intent was not to start a debate about 'Punjabi nationalism' on this AfD forum, when I voted KEEP above here. I was simply happy to see someone, in this case User:NeverTry4Me make an effort to add needed references on an article, that's all. It was my fault that I hurried myself and I neglected to closely read the line about Pakistan – which I have edited the above article to now read as: In Pakistan, its goal is a better status of Punjabi language along with Urdu at state level. Personally, I speak and like Punjabi, Urdu and English languages. My intent certainly was not to push or promote Punjabi nationalism or worse yet Punjabi chauvinism over any other language and culture. Ngrewal1 (talk) 19:39, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but rewrite. 'Punjabiyat' as a philosophical concept is notable phenomenon (in contradiction to the realities of Partition and communalism), documented in scholarly literature. But the article at present is more focused on politics, in a way that misses the point. --Soman (talk) 12:48, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

History of rugby union matches between Japan and South Africa[edit]
Their 2015 encounter was epic but one epic match does not automatically equal a rivalry. I have searched but was unable to find significant discussion of a lasting rivalry between these two teams per WP:GNG and WP:NRIVALRY.

This article is a lower-quality duplication of Ijazah. A merger has previously been proposed, but comparing the body and sourcing of the two articles, I do not think there is much to be salvaged on this page. All of the sources are obscure, Arabic-language titles, while the existing Ijazah page is already well-fleshed out in prose from largely credible, English-language, scholarly sources.

History of rugby union matches between Ireland and Japan[edit]
Delete Apologies, couldn't find whether or not it was PRODed previously in 2020. But yep, fails WP:NOTSTATS and WP:NRIVALRY in my opinion as there is no significant coverage of the rivalry between the two sides, leading to this page being just a collection of stats and therefore failing WP:NOTSTATS. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 13:20, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as recreation of an article deleted by PROD. It is unclear how similar the new text is to the old, but exactly the same concerns apply. The original rationale was:
Fails WP:NRIVALRY and WP:GNG. No real reliable sources that discuss the rivalry in any depth. Just a list of stats and information which means it violates WP:NOTSTATS.
Delete: Delete per nom but see other similar lists that may also not qualify for articles, mostly not Ireland related but created by the same editor late last year and more recently:
Comment -I agree with the above in general, but not re History of rugby union matches between France and New Zealand - article has a lot of prose, is well-referenced and has passed a GA review - it's actually what this sort of article should look like.--Bcp67 (talk) 07:32, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Subject is not notable and verifiability issues. Only 2 sources, and I cannot find any other sources that do not talk about Noclip in other video games. Washing Machine (alt) (talk) 13:07, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect This is basically a dictionary term in my view. Redirect to Glossary of video game terms#noclip mode. I hate to "other stuff", but similar to God mode, a related cheat code/console command. I'm sure we can find sources about God mode too, but these are basic concepts within video gaming. -- ferret (talk) 13:40, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What I have to say to that is WP:NOTPAPER. If something can conceivably have an article and has the sources, there is no real reason for it not to have an article. It certainly doesn't help users to have less information on something. If an article on God mode can be well-written, then I would welcome it. The only reason the article does not exist right now is because one user, Czar, unilaterally decided it shouldn't be there in 2014. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 16:07, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What can you really say about noclip or godmode though? You explain what it is in a few sentences, then present an example farm of a selection of hundreds/thousands of games that have them. -- ferret (talk) 16:10, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Why it exists, the history of it, what games were notable for having it, what was its impact on gaming culture, these are all things that could be stated within a potential article and not in a glossary. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 16:39, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Glossary of video game terms#noclip mode per Ferret, with no prejudice against its recreation in the future. The current version lacks any encyclopediac value, as well as sources to support it. Like ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ said, there is potential, but one would need to find the sources and rewrite it from scratch.

BOvcharenko: While Twitter can be used in some cases (see WP:ABOUTSELF), it is not a reliable source, which mean it does not count towards notability. Articles about products need to meet the WP:NCORP notability guideline. The criteria are summarized in WP:ORGCRIT: A company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. This did not seem the case when I nominated the article for deletion, but sources examined during this discussion can lead to the article to be kept if they meet the cited criteria.

A couple of premodern chronicles (Firishta, Salim).
There is a source from 1946, which does not mention our subject. The same observations apply to the 1992 "encyclopedia" and Thaker (1970). A news-site, of unknown reliability, documenting the dilapidated condition of a tomb has been cited but it neither supports the preceding line nor has anything on our subject. Another news article, documenting a grave and attached legends, is cited but has nothing on our subject.
All these sources have been used to engage in original research about possible connections between Bang and Vanga or go to tangent explorations, to inflate the article.

Redirect to List of films directed by Tex Avery#1942–1957: MGM era - While searches bring up plenty of hits regarding this film, none of them are actually in-depth at all. Many are just simply listings of Avery's filmography, with a one or two sentence summary of the plot at most. The only actual sources I can find that talk more in-depth about it seem to all be from non-reliable sources, such as blogs or this self-published book. The most promising source I was able to find was an entry in this book, however a Spanish speaker would be needed to verify that the entry has more than just a plot summary. And even if so, it would still only be a single reliable source. That said, a valid target exists, so a Redirect would be more appropriate than a straight deletion.

Someone more fluent than I could probably glean more, but my very rudimentary skills got the basic gist. The first paragraph is a summary of the cartoon, the second part is a bit of discussion. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 14:33, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The discussion is basically the writer saying that the cartoon features a flea circus, which IRL is represented to the public as well trained fleas but in reality is just a series of mechanical doo dads that make it appear that this is true. The final paragraph says that the song is based on or came from an MGM musical. (My college Spanish teachers would be so proud that I was able to muddle through...)

A number of fictional characters, particular from Monk have recently been tagged for notability, suggested to be merged, replaced with redirects, and then reverted.

Keep Google News link shows me plenty of apparent coverage. Suggest nom review it per WP:BEFORE and explain why it doesn't meet GNG in light of that, or withdraw nomination and incorporate the relevant parts. Jclemens (talk) 15:37, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, and you still fundamentally understand the difference between "I see good entries" and "there are X number of hits" arguments. Again, not my job to do WP:BEFORE, that would be the nominator's. I've never watched an episode of the show and have no idea how to really evaluate which are truly worthwhile, so I'm not going to waste my time doing it badly.

Delete. As written, it fails WP:GNG being a pure plot summary. I did a BEFORE search (and yes, here I concur with the commenters above that the nom seems to have forgot about this best practice), but sadly, I see little but plot summaries. I found a sentence or two of analysis here ([3]) but IMHO that is not enough per WP:SIGCOV. If someone really cares, you could use this to add some analysis info, a sentence or so, to her description in the article about the TV series. Do ping me if more sources are found, but for now I don't see sufficient grounds for retaining this article. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:13, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep as an event article - WP:BLP1E generally discourages an article on a person when they are 1) only covered by reliable sources in the context of a single event, and 2) otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual, and 3) the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented. All three conditions appear to be met based on the sources currently identified. However, per WP:EVENT, there is some WP:INDEPTH, WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE in WP:DIVERSE sources, including a national WP:GEOSCOPE. My !vote would be stronger if sources more clearly indicated a WP:LASTING impact. Beccaynr (talk) 12:37, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question for Beccaynr and CT55555, if this were to be an event article, what would it be named? Jacona (talk) 15:42, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
All indications suggest that @Beccaynr is better at this than me. But to make a suggestion:
"Identification of Elba Soccarras"? CT55555 (talk) 15:48, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
One option could be The Hagedorn Jane Doe case, per the 2008 NYT use of the phrase. However, the event seems more associated with the Woodbridge Center mall (e.g. NJ.com 2008, NYDN, 2009), so Woodbridge Center Jane Doe case or Woodbridge Center mall Jane Doe case would probably be most helpful for readers. Beccaynr (talk) 15:59, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, as an event article, I would plan to try to rewrite this article into more of a chronological order as a case, instead of what currently seems like a pseudo-biography (as discussed in WP:BIO1E). Beccaynr (talk) 16:50, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the subject passes WP:GNG and WP:NCORP.Merge to Bill Burr and Al Madrigal. I'm willing to admit most of the sources do not provide in depth coverage of the subject, but I think there is salvageable content here. TipsyElephant (talk) 20:12, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The Province and NPR noted that the ATC network was part of the podcasting boom way back in 2014 and a decade after the company was established it is still receiving news coverage.[1][2] The ATC network is one of the only cooperative/collective/artist-owned podcast networks I'm aware of and one of the only podcast cooperatives that has a Wikipedia page so far.[3][4] According to Deadline Hollywood, the ATC network is "the leading comedy podcast network featuring shows hosted by some of the industry’s top comedians and has over 15 million listeners and 50+ shows."[5]
Some of these sources are probably routine, but I think it's worth noting that different parts of the company has received coverage from reliable sources for years. The ATC comedy festival has been discussed by multiple reliable sources.[6][7] The ATC partnership with Comedy Central for three comedy specials has been discussed by multiple reliable sources.[8][9][10] The first was "Paul Virzi: I’ll Say This,"[11][12] the second was "IanTalk: Ideas Not Worth Spreading,"[13][14] and the third was "Jessica Kirson: Talking to Myself."[15] The Patrice O’Neal documentary produced by ATC was discussed by multiple reliable sources.[16][17][18] The ATC partnership with Miramax received coverage in multiple reliable sources.[19][20] The ATC network also has a record label called All Things Records.[21]
All Things Comedy produces multiple Spanish-language podcasts such as Leyendas Legendarias and El Dollop.The Capital Times called Leyendas Legendarias "one of Mexico's top podcasts,"[22] the LA Times called it "the #1 Spanish-language podcast in the world,"[23] It also won "Best Spanish Language Podcast" at the 2021 iHeartRadio awards.[24] Based on this I think it's fair to assume there are more Spanish-language sources out there that discuss the ATC network (see WP:NPOSSIBLE or WP:ORGIN). The network has also produced quite a few notable podcasts and Wikipedia already has pages for seven of them: Your Mom's House, The Dollop, Tom Rhodes Radio, The Champs (podcast), Come to Papa (podcast), Monday Morning Podcast, and The Naughty Show. The article could at least be moved to "List of All Things Comedy productions" for navigational purposes. TipsyElephant (talk) 15:31, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment if the consensus is that All Things Comedy is not notable then I think there should be some discussion as to whether it should be merged or redirect to Bill Burr or Al Madrigal. TipsyElephant (talk) 15:38, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@TipsyElephant: Vomiting all the sources back up doesn't help. Almost all of those sources are only passing mentions or name-drops, and not WP:SIGCOV. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 16:25, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@TenPoundHammer: only four of the sources I cited are currently referenced in the Wikipedia page so I wouldn't say I "vomitted" them back up. Even if every single one of the sources are invalid there are still WP:ATD that were not pursued such as merging the contents into Bill Burr. TipsyElephant (talk) 16:37, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge Change my !vote based on the ability to merge content to multiple articles Delete This is an organization therefore WP:NCORP guidelines apply and require multiple sources of in-depth references containing "Independent Content". None of the references meet the criteria, they're either passing mentions or they rely entirely on information provided by the organization or people associated with the org. There also isn't an obvious redirect - the org was founded by both Al Madrigal and Bill Burr and is already mentioned in both of their articles therefore it doesn't make sense to redirect to one or the other. HighKing++ 15:38, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Olsson has been the subject of sustained media interest for decades, and enough to merit publication of his autobiography many years after the event. He was the main culprit behind the most well-known robbery in Swedish history (and one of the most famous robberies ever, as it – whether the psychological basis was sound or not – led to the coining of the term "Stockholm syndrome"). //Julle (talk) 06:37, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Norrmalmstorg robbery. Olsson paid a major role in a notable event so WP:1E applies rather than WP:BLP1E and we should make an editorial judgement about whether he merits a separate article. His article is essentially about the robbery, plus a paragraph of background and a paragraph of trivia about his subsequent life. I see nothing to indicate that he is notable for anything other than the robbery. The present content would be better covered in Norrmalmstorg robbery or, in the case of the trivia, deleted. Subsequent newspaper discussion of the robbery does not change this and an autobiography does not contribute to notability. However, if reliable secondary sources can be found that indicate that his notability extends beyond the robbery I would be open to changing my mind. Wham2001 (talk) 12:05, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've declined a WP:G11 request on this as I don't think it's unambiguous spam (it looks to me like a fairly generic local politician bio). I'm not convinced however that either his musical or his political career is significant enough to justify Wikipedia hosting a biography—there are a lot of sources but on a quick dip it seems to mainly be routine coverage of local council decisions rather than about him specifically. ‑ Iridescent 05:11, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I agree with Iridescent. The page looks quite neutral (a fairly written bio yet requires solid citations). However, could be improved in various ways.

Keep Passes WP:AUTHOR because this person's work is widely cited. They are a news correspondent for Planet Money, which is a popular podcast. I would guess it is top 1% by popularity. This person is one of the people who manage its content, and a front facing person for representing its quality.

Out of process mainspace creation after Draft:1998 Cyprus International Tournament was declined. User does not respect consensus, so we're here. No evidence this tournament was notable, no viable AtD. StarMississippi 01:46, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as non-notable. I thought the lack of referencing was an oversight, but having tried searching, it turns out there simply aren't any sources. (Just out of curiosity, I also tried in Finnish, seeing as Finland was in the tournament; got less than a page of hits, all of them to various wikis only.)

Hello. I am the catalyst of all this, and I personally think that Wikipedia shouldn't outcast non-notable pages. It should encompass as much as possible, as long as there are references and sources to prove its existence. If the problem is "needs more citations from reliable, independent sources", then I can add more sources, and you can even help me with that. I put many hours on this and tried to do everything right in order to get this pages online, but if it's not enough, please help me. Together we can enrich Wikipedia. (English is not my mother tongue, so be understandable). Clenixon (talk) 11:43, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Your view is completely contrary to Wikipedia's policy outlined at WP:NOTDATABASE which says merely being true, or even verifiable, does not automatically make something suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. Also see WP:N which links to WP:GNG which clearly explains that A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Are you able to link to any significant media coverage of this tournament? If the answer is "no" then the article should be deleted or redirected to another article. WP:SPORTSEVENT also goes on to say that news coverage should be extensive (e.g., outside of the week of its occurrence and in non-local newspapers). and Articles about notable games should have well-sourced prose, not merely a list of stats.Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 13:02, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You little Spider... do you really think I will do that? Some of those pages exist for three or more years and have been providing information and knowledge to all those who have passed by, but now, just because it's "not-notable", it might get deleted. With all the respect, but I can't do that, I really can't. I need those pages to be online because it helps me for my works. I understand if you can't help me with this page, so I hope you will understand for not being able to help you destroy those pages. Clenixon (talk) 20:00, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Clenixon: FWIW, my (entirely non-expert) take on the OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument you're invoking is that if other articles indeed do exist which also flout the guidelines, that's no grounds for creating more similarly-offending articles; it's grounds for dealing with the existing ones to bring them in line with the rules. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:54, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Offending articles? I am just trying to enrich Wikipedia with articles of stuff that are true and even verifiable. I followed every rule (or at least I tried hard), but because it's not important and notable enough, it's "not suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia". Please help me with this, cause I have tried everything. I really want to understand how can I improve this article (and more similarly articles) and get it online. Clenixon (talk) 20:07, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think the biggest issue @Clenixon is that no amount of improvement can fix an article that doesn't meet the criteria for inclusion. It's the subject that's the issue, not the state of the article. I need those pages to be online because it helps me for my works. is basically WP:ILIKEIT which is not a reason for inclusion.
Not to speak for @DoubleGrazing but offending article means articles that don't meet guidelines. Because others exist that haven't been handled doesn't mean we should create more. StarMississippi 20:35, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay then. I understand.
Would it be too much to ask if the "Cyprus national football team results (2010–19)" is an article that meets the criteria for inclusion. Nearly every European national team has it. I would like to attempt to create this article. Is it possible? Could any of you review my submission when it's done? Clenixon (talk) 22:00, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Glad it's clear. Sometimes things aren't. If you're on board with deletion this can be closed early. Happy to have it run seven days if you'd prefer.
I can't say for sure whether that would be notable, but I would be willing to review it once you've submitted it if others weigh in indicating it would be a potentially suitable topic. Draft space is almost certainly your best bet rather than creating it in mainspace. You can either ping me on the Draft talk or on my Talk page. StarMississippi 22:10, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't meet WP:ORGCRITE, coverage in secondary sources appears limited to a brief mention in an academic paper about discourse at RPI, student publications and possibly some coverage in a local paper that is now a dead link. Even if that article is substantial, I don't think we make the cut. Previously this was converted to a redirect a few times, but given that there is apparently no mention at the target, deletion seems preferable. signed, Rosguilltalk 01:41, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This article needs work, but it has some good sources. It has high independent press coverage and analyst reports. So it is notable as per the primary guidelines of Wikipedia.

Delete The only reference worth considering in the article for NCORP purposes is this Hindu source - which is just a couple of paragraphs long and is mostly a routine announcement. As noted by LibStar, there is nothing else available from search. Hemantha (talk) 08:20, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Please review WP:NCORP. The search you perform is linked directly above in this page and something conscientious AfD voters regularly review.

Undeleted by article creator, who claims sources clearly exist beyond the Nintendo Life. I have searched high and low for these supposed sources but have come up with nothing, nor have they posted them anywhere.

Literally none of those are reliable sources. Most are not examples of significant coverage and others are user-generated. Please read WP:RELIABLE for why being on any of those sites does not indicate notability. The argument is not that "nobody has heard of" the game but that it is not notable. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:26, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Added a source about the existence of these Sadat sayyid families, the book details everything that is on this page Sadat Al-Baaj. I hope this page will not be deleted, but will help to find other sources and supplement and wikify this page. https://archive.org/details/20200709_20200709_0644/mode/2up89.146.66.125 (talk) 06:14, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Dear specialist wiki, this book was written by a scientist of genealogy, the book indicates the name of many reliable sources, and everything that is on this wiki page is also written in the book, I see you are an expert on Iran and probably an Iranian maybe, you know about the Khuzistan, Solmas , Ahvaz (Iran), many Sadat al-Baaj sayyids live there and call themselves descendants of Syed Ali ibn Muhammad al Baaj ibn imam Ali al Hadi a.s. These Al-Baaj families really exist, so far I have found these sources that are listed on the page, maybe there are other sources, yes, I really need to admit that there are many sources about these sadat families in Arabic resources, it will be difficult to find in English, I hope other wiki participants in the future will also help to supplement this fresh page, find links to sources and resources. please don't delete this page. 89.146.66.125 (talk) 12:45, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable musician. Has a few bit parts here and there but nothing of substance. Cited sources barely mention her at all. Prod removed with addition of sources that are no better. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 18:15, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This characterisation is quite one-sided - Winters directed a major Bach Festival at Carnegie Hall in 2020 and has had a substantial professional musical career, including a major commission by Lincoln Center for a show commemorating the sinking of the Titanic in 2012. She also performed on Saturday Night Live and in numerous festivals worldwide.

@Betongmandarin: Please read WP:BAND, our list of notability criteria for musicians. Which one of these does she meet in your view? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 18:35, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I'm uncertain, because my searches of Google news suggest she is notable, but it's paywalled.
Article needs work, too much uncited stuff and currently not convincing me she's notable based on the article, but online searches suggest she might be. CT55555
I note she claims (and I'll assume it's true) to have played in 3,000 concerts, which seems high (talk) 00:07, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@CT55555: Those are all articles that mention Winters in passing, and I'm not sure "Grateful Web" is a reliable source. Also, number of concerts has nothing to do with notability; WP:BIGNUMBER is not a valid argument. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 05:49, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
See the three interviews in Ambush Arts, Cincy Groove and Puremusic, all Additional Sources for the page. With these Winters meets notability criterion 1 on the WPBand list (and bear in mind this is work done in the folk/singer-songwriter culture that gets limited mass media coverage, see WPNMUSICOTHER): Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent Betongmandarin (talk) 17:48, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I found some academic journals detailing the history and importance of the organization via the Wikipedia Library ([15]), so it seems to satisfy WP:NCORP. The article definitely needs some cleanup, as most of it is unsourced and spammy. Isabelle🏳🌈 15:10, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was Moot. Respect the AFD process please. Did you raise your concerns about the close with me personally at the time? I don't recall thay. DRV exists for closes calls you disagree with. Canvassing and disregarding consensus are a good way to get banned from AFD and I say that as an admin more likely to be challenged over deletion calls then any other reason. This clearly isn't going to be deleted so let's just leave this here. SpartazHumbug! 14:46, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The previous AfD for this song closed a little while ago as "no consensus". Someone did not notice that all "keep" votes committed the "there are sources" fallacy without delivering any. Two links provided in the debate are self promos or paid promos in non-critical blogs. The article is currently dependent on one of those plus two dead links. All else to be found are more of the same and even those are rare. Nobody has delivered anything else except flimsy claims of systemic bias. Those convinced that there are sources proving this song's notability are encouraged to deliver this time. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 18:15, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the nominator started this AFD less than an hour after the previous AFD ended as "no consensus". They did contact the other person who thought it should be deleted [16] about this discussion, but no one else. I have now contacted the three others who voted in it about this discussion. Contacting only those who will vote how you want instead of everyone is against the canvassing rules. DreamFocus 23:34, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A possible procedural error on my part, but I contacted not a voter from the previous AfD, but the nominator, and it was not to get a new vote, but to opine that the previous AfD initiated by that person was mishandled by the closing Admin. My disagreement with the Admin's action was also the reason for my re-nomination, which is stated quite clearly above. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:26, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Doomsdayer520: contacting a single voter who said "Delete" while not similarly contacting the voters who said "Keep" is indeed a procedural error, as it's regarded as WP:CANVASsing which can influence the direction of the new vote. I don't doubt that this was a good faith error in your part, so no harm done, but in future please take care to be fair when notifying editors of discussions. In general you need to notify either everyone involved in previous discussions, or nobody involved in them. Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 10:47, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm convinced with the sources presented by Sean Stephens, aside from the ones presented in the previous discussion. They're reliable enough and most of them are in-depth IMV. SBKSPP (talk) 00:26, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I found four sources: here, here, here, and here (this offers some insight into the origins of the song too). Make what you will of those (the second one is incredibly brief), but this appears to be somewhat notable. Sean Stephens (talk) 03:19, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ref 1 - this looks like a standard press release. I can't find anything on Naija Review to suggest that it's professional journalism. Ref 2 - just a download link. Ref 3 - 404 error. Ref 4 - passing mention of the song and doesn't even have the correct title for the song. It actually calls it "Don't Leave Me" which shows that the standard of journalism isn't high here. Ref 5 - "This site can't be reached" error. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 07:27, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per my arguments in the previous AFD, and also per evidence raised by the two comments above this one. Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 10:44, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment from Nominator - I have surely created some controversy, but nobody has yet discussed the reason for my re-nomination of this song for deletion after the previous "no consensus". That reasoning has been at the top of this page this entire time, regardless of an error I may have made after that. I contend that the Admin who closed the previous AfD committed an error too. Counting votes and the number of sources is not enough; we must look at the quality of the sources. I contend that every "source" proposed in this discussion and the previous one is unworthy of the requirements at WP:RS and WP:SIGCOV, and by extension WP:NSONG, because they are clearly reprints of the singer's press releases or basic announcements of the song's existence. Oh well, I don't have to look at the article ever again. In the event that someone stumbles across it in the future, perhaps they will wonder why it is here. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:16, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Has a handful of credits, most of which are overstated. Worked with a non-notable Christian band that reached the lower regions of a low-level Radio & Records chart. Toured with a couple musicians and sang backup, but this is attributed solely to Allmusic database listings. Got some coverage for competing on The Voice, but it's all either local newspapers or unreliable sites like Reality TV World. He placed tenth on his season of The Voice and did nothing of note since.

This article has been speedily deleted and recreated multiple times, per the page logs. The sources in the article are personal/corporate blogs, documentation pages, WP:FORBESCON, or sources that don't cover the source significantly (e.x. it's got a one-sentence mention on a list containing 101 open source apps). I'm unable to find independent coverage by multiple reliable sources which cover the software significantly, so I believe that this software fails WP:GNG. — Mhawk10 (talk) 19:28, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
