Looks to be promotional, poorly sourced - publications named but not linked, which makes one wonder if sources exist or actually source content - and problems not addressed since creation. When it was put up for deletion before, it was kept largely due to promises it would be cleaned up. That has not happened.

Created and edited by one or two SPAs, and recent one is adding promotional content only sourced to a YouTube video. I'd speedy it if not for the multiple editors. - CorbieVreccan 20:20, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'd speedy it if not for the multiple editors I don't see any of the criteria of Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Pages that have survived deletion discussions that would be applicable here. --John B123 (talk) 21:41, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ajax151, your recent edits led me to do this. You haven't fixed it, you've just added "sourcing" cites that are predominantly bare url links to her own website. Other citations mention publications, but when one clicks on the "link", there is no linked source. At first glance, they appear to be proper citations, linked to the media they cite, but they are only wikilinked to the WP articles about the publications; there is no link to go check to see if the source cites the content.
If you want this article to stay, read WP:CITE or WP:REFB and WP:RS, put the content you've added into the format Wikipedia uses, use sources that aren't the BLP subject's personal site, and actually clean this up. - CorbieVreccan 18:38, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

GS's arguments are completely flawed, so you can't use them as a basis for your own keep rationale.Tvx1 14:47, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @Alvaldi: The player is from the 1930s to 1940s, before the internet, not all players will be recorded to the internet since then. Your argument for deletion appears to based on what the internet has, it's more highly likely that one would need to search archived newspapers, what can be a problem due to the time period, hence WW2. I strongly suggest you consider the possibility of off-line sources otherwise your argument for deletion is only one sided. Govvy (talk) 11:00, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Govvy I did consider offline sources, due to the concerns that you mention, but unfortunately came to the conclusion that there no evidence that this was a notable player. Notable players in my experience usually have some traces of coverage in modern times, even if it is just "player x starred at team y", but in Nilsson's case I couldn't find any traces of coverage. The only thing I know is that he played in roughly 17% of his teams game during a 5 year period which does not indicate a notable player. If someone finds any kind of evidence of his notabily, I am more than happy to reconsider my !vote.
    On a sidenote, I did theorise that this Nilsson is the same person as Karl-Erik Nilsson (wrestler) who are both from Malmö and possibly in a similar age range (Nilson the Wrestler would have been aged 15-20 during the years in question) but couldn't find any sources that linked them together. Alvaldi (talk) 11:46, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
!Votes need to be based on what current guidelines actually say, not what you wish they said or your interpretation of past AfDs. NSPORTS is the relevant guideline and covers athletes from all eras, not just modern ones. –dlthewave 05:13, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Stifle, since there's no presumed notability for footballers, I'm assuming you've found significant coverage as required by WP:NSPORTS. Could you please share a few of your best sources here? –dlthewave 15:15, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ridiculous that people are being harassed for not being able to find online sources for a pre-Internet player from a non-English speaking country. The fact that a book exists offline and is being used indicates it's likely that other such books exist. Deleting simply because none of us have access to offline Swedish language book sources is ridiculous and a clear WP:BIAS, based on the player's nationality and era. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:49, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Joseph2302 Asking people politely to show evidence of their claims is not something that could be considered as harassment. Regarding the book in question, there is no evidence that it covered the subject in detail. As I listed in an answer to Goovy above, there where several other similar articles created of Malmö players by the same editor with the same set of information (name, position, total games, total goals) using the same book as source which indicates that the information in it about these players where just database listings. Furthermore, almost all those articles where later redirected to List of Malmö FF players (1–24 appearances) for failing GNG and for not having played in games involving two professional teams. So I kindly ask, what evidence do we have that the subject, who during his career didn't appear in 83% of his teams games in a seemingly non-professional league, is notable? Alvaldi (talk) 09:13, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Joseph2302, Stifle cited a guideline that no longer exists so of course they were asked to clarify. –dlthewave 12:12, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, it doesn't. That guideline does not exist anymore. Not a valid keep argument in any way.Tvx1 14:47, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Insufficient participation on the delete side to claim a genuine consensus, but the keep votes seem very misguided, ignoring recent developments, and claiming local consensus rather than GNG is most important.

  • User:Johnpacklambert made this comment at 18:35 UTC. At 18:34 UTC he editing Stan Wood and at 18:33 UTC he was editing Robert J. Wood, and then two other pages at 18:32. It's implausible that he read the previous comments, and examined the sources himself - let alone did any searching for sources. I'd suggest that whoever close this AFD, disregard JPL's drive-by deleting. Nfitz (talk) 22:25, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sources? There is one source, and it doesn't take long to determine that an article cannot meet WP:GNG with one source. Further, if you have issues with his contributions to AFD, the correct place to discuss this is his talk page or ANI rather than casting aspersions of drive-by deleting. BilledMammal (talk) 22:37, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • One source? I linked a potential 11 sources in my comment above. Also, this is hardly an isolated action - his actions at AFD have been discussed in both of his current topic bans. Nfitz (talk) 22:51, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        • You linked a search with eleven results. Given that you haven't examined those results, it's unreasonable to expect that other editors will examine them for you. And as I said, this is the incorrect location to discuss Johnpacklambert's behaviour - please stop casting WP:ASPERSIONS and if you believe the topic needs discussing please take it to the appropriate locations.

          For the record, of those 11 sources, one seems to be about the wrestler of same name, the others seem to either list him in team lineups and/or are game recaps. Alvaldi (talk) 23:02, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
          Ah - that one must be Karl-Erik Nilsson (wrestler), also from Malmo; I hadn't searched after 1943, 5-years before I thought he appeared.

No evidence of sigcov Ficaia (talk) 09:41, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Time and time again we have to tell you that playing for a national team is NOT a valid argument to keep an article. If a national team does not play at meaningful level, their players certainly aren't notable for playing for them. When will this finally get through to you?? And even if a national team does reach a significant level, that doesn't make every player that was ever called-up for them, even without actually playing, automatically notable. Notability is not inherited. The only thing that matters is coverage.Tvx1 15:03, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not a valid keep argument in any way.Tvx1 15:03, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I trust the closer will disregard the non-arguments above. The subject lacks sigcov. Ficaia (talk) 05:15, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BEFORE - you need to comply with it. GiantSnowman 06:13, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not a word of truth in your rationale.Tvx1 15:03, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ficaia. Have you even looked at the article this morning? MonFrontieres expanded it yesterday evening with additional sources that you would have found yourself if, as GiantSnowman has emphasised, you had actually carried out WP:BEFORE ahead of coming here with your no evidence claim. Your nominations are a waste of everyone else's time and I'm now seriously considering ANI to propose that you are barred from AfD. Your behaviour, including the suggestion to the closer about what you call non-arguments, persistently breaches AfD spirit and guidelines. NGS Shakin' All Over 08:56, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Those sources are all either simple mentions or database entries. We require sigcov. Ficaia (talk) 09:06, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
While the nominator could improve his nominations with a simple WP:BEFORE (or make it clearer that it was performed) it still doesn't change the fact that there is no significant coverage found in the article and no editors have been able to precent any here. None of the sources presented go towards GNG, as can be seen in BilledMammal's assessment below. Arguments based on WP:MUSTBESOURCES and WP:Clearly notable are not valid arguments in AfD. Alvaldi (talk) 11:08, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No such thing as NFOOTY anymore Avilich (talk) 15:08, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, discussion is underway to replace NFOOTY, but we shouldn't be using the interregnum to mass AfD a bunch of articles. Seany91 (talk) 15:09, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Consensus was to get rid of it, not replace it Avilich (talk) 15:10, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I meant that there is no SNG for football; NFOOTY points to NSPORTS which requires significant coverage. Like all sports SNGs, the replacement would not presume notability, it would simply tell us that coverage is likely to exist. SIGCOV would still need to be found. –dlthewave 15:13, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'd reiterate that there is an ongoing discussion at WP:NFOOTYNEW. It is premature and potentially wasting a lot of editors' time and energy if we collectively allow mass AfDs to occur during the interregnum. Seany91 (talk) 15:20, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's not part of the guideline and it will in any case require another RfC to implement. Even if it does pass, articles will still require that GNG be met, which doesn't seem to be the case here. Nobody is forcing you to spend your time on this if you think it's a waste. Avilich (talk) 15:24, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Guidelines are only guidelines, and are written to implement long-standing consensus. And while removing NFOOTBALL might be justification to delete some marginal players, to start nominating international players on top teams, with media coverage is not appropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nfitz (talkcontribs) 23:54, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Then why is it even there? It's there because there are going to be situations where there are likely sufficient sources - this isn't a Canadian international player where we can easily search everything published. Obviously you are about to disagree with me - but you tell me why you think that sentence is there? Besides - the criteria failure to have multiple (or even one) GNG source isn't a firm rule. We are all aware that the failure to meet these criteria does not mean an article must be deleted! Nfitz (talk) 04:10, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Fram but I'm stealing your reasoning. Recently, a number of similar articles have been created, and I'm unclear whether they are a good idea. We already have categories for these, they are not a notable topic as a group, they are not a set index (as described at Wikipedia:Set index articles), and we could have a nearly endless supply of such lists. Not to mention these are all already linked on their main articles.

Delete all. While these are slightly better than the Cameron Diaz one, it makes little sense to e.g. create such a list for Kylie Minogue, and then add it as "related articles" to an already existing, better template with all these articles[13]. The same has been done for e.g. Pretty Little Liars[14]. In general, if there aren't too many articles, the main artcle + category + search bar are sufficient: if there are more articles, usually a navigational template already exists.

Don't delete. There are a number of other List of articles about pages that have been created prior to these ones, for example List of articles about Australia and New Zealand jointly. So, I don't understand why these are not worthy of creation, as in Michael Jackson, Madonna and Kylie Minogue's example, as these people have several articles related to them, and in my experience category pages (like Category:Michael Jackson, Category:Madonna and Category:Kylie Minogue) have often been messy and filled with other articles that don't directly link to the person themselves.

This is another article that is little more than a collection of mostly uncited trivia. If you want this type of content, go to TV Tropes. Their purpose is to list every single time that random things have appeared in various fictional works. This is not Wikipedia's job, however. There is also a clear issue with the scope of the article. No attempt was made to create reasonable criteria for inclusion here. This list is an indiscriminate collection of tangentially related things. Many of the examples given are not even usages of the classical elements. Instead, several other elements are discussed here. Honestly, this article is probably too broad to exist. At best, this might be a candidate for destruction and recreation. However, the sheer number of times that creators have used the classical elements in their works likely precludes the recreation of this article. ―Susmuffin Talk 13:17, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As the one who restored the article in the first place, I did so because I knew Zack had plenty of sources discussing him, and I found some. Screen Rant and CBR, while not as strong of a source as A.V. Club, are still reliable, unless they are being cited for exceptional claims or for BLPs (Zack Morris is a character), per WP:RSPSOURCES (which lists Screen Rant as such, and CBR is owned by the same company), especially for opinions pieces (WP:RSOPINION). Plus, here's an article by LA Times and another by Rolling Stone, as well as NPR and Thought Catalog. And this book, while I don't have access to it beyond the Google preview, seems to do a lot of discussion on Zack. Here's another book that discusses him.

Not-so notable event that got cancelled due to the pandemic. If this information is really important, it could be summarised in 1-2 lines at 2022 Commonwealth Games article. Also note that most of the events in Category:Sports events cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic are redirects. Peter Ormond 💬 10:33, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tentative agree - I would quibble on the 'not-so-notable', that's a pure opinion - I would argue given the quite well publicised politics behind the original creation of a new championship event, and the tensions it revealed, and the unique status that was going to be given to medals (included in second table linked to main 2022 Commonwealth Games), it certainly did reach notability - and would have kept it IF the event had actually taken place.
But its cancellation - without word of any successor event - probably justifies reducing it to a paragraph ( a bit more than two lines, though) in a 'controversies' part of the 2022 Commonwealth Games front page. On that basis, I would agree with the deletion. Mpjmcevoybeta (talk) 13:42, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article is too short more like a dictionary definition rather than article, no sources, and might be a hoax. Vitaium (talk) 21:26, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

it with the English word 'Wine'? But, in fact, there is no relation between the two words. Wyne has historically been used as a tribal family name in Punjab. I remember working on his still existing Wikipedia article Ghulam Haider Wyne on 3 September 2021. Added 2 more references to that article today (the article already had many newspaper references). This above article Wyne (tribe) was created in 2013 by someone and has been neglected and unsourced since then like many others we run into. Anyone of us may try to find references on Google Books for it where I usually have luck for tribal names. I'll also try to look for them soon. Ngrewal1 (talk) 19:33, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article does not describe a single coherent subject. It is, in effect, the potted relocation/merger/expansion histories of three distinct leagues in three different sports: the Australian Football League, National Rugby League and A-League. Parallels among the three leagues are not explored in any significant way, the list of entries indicates that there aren't that many parallels which could sustain an article, and the rest of ANZ's professional sports are ignored completely. Overall I don't believe a valid article under this title can be written - in that I don't see a reason for different sports to be combined by country like this. One alternative to outright deletion would be splitting into articles named Relocation of teams in the Australian Football League, Relocation of teams in the National Rugby League and Relocation of teams in the A-League – but I'd also oppose this on the grounds that those leagues' and clubs' history pages should and already do cover the subject adequately.

WP:BLP of an entrepreneur, not properly sourced as passing our notability criteria for businesspeople. As always, being CEO of a company is not an automatic notability freebie that guarantees inclusion in Wikipedia -- the notability test is the reception of enough third-party coverage and analysis in real media to pass WP:GNG. But this is referenced overwhelmingly to sources that are not valid support for notability -- WordPress blogs, his own company's self-published press releases about itself, cryptocurrency news forums, etc. -- and the very few sources that do appear to be legitimate media outlets aren't covering him as a subject, but all just glancingly namecheck his existence as a provider of soundbite in articles about something else, and that's not the kind of "coverage" we're looking for.

Article about a song by a band who don't have a Wikipedia article, not making any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The article is long and detailed enough that I don't feel comfortable speedying it A9, but the problem is that the detail in it isn't reliably sourced to real media coverage about the song: it's referenced 50 per cent to WordPress blogs and podcasts, and 50 per cent to a five-stacked reference bomb offering purely tangential verification of the existence of a different band whose video for a different song was supposedly a "sequel" to the video for this one, except absolutely none of the sources actually support that claim at all — they just verify that the other band exists, while completely failing to mention any connection whatsoever to this song or the band that recorded this song. Which means that the article is referenced exactly zero per cent to reliable sourcing that establishes the notability of this song. Bearcat (talk) 03:06, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, Wikipedia doesn't account for this and holds women in countries with exceptional levels of gender inequity to the same notability standard as those in every other country.

"compared to two random, arbitrary scales"
Historically, at worst, Ridgway and Wooddell extended Mohs to specific synthetic materials industries, while Mohs was a field mineralogist.
"Scratch hardness" is certainly a notable thing, having encountered it many times in multiple youth education systems.
I get it that Ridgway's and Wooddell's papers are primary, but they clearly exist as practical improvements to Mohs to make the material hardness measurement method more functional for industry. A relatively likely situation here is that the OP is familiar with hardness scales in some fields where either Ridgway or Woodall scales are known, so, I hackle at the "random" appellation that strikes me personally as presumptively NPOV. "Random" is speculative. Mohs is "arbitrary" by definition.
I suggest searching on the titles "Hardness Values for Electrochemical Products" and "Method of Comparing the Hardness of Electric Furnace Products and Natural Abrasives", which turns up more books and papers citing Ridgway, et al, 1933, or Wooddell 1935 than I have time to assess.
  • C. Barry Carter, M. Grant Norton (2013). Ceramic Materials: Science and Engineering. [citing Ridgway, et al, 1933] Note that in Chapter 16 we consider the extended [industrial] version as defined by Ridgway but it is not nearly so widely used in the Gem industry. (ironically published the same year as the WP page)
  • Industrial Minerals and Rocks: (nonmetallics Other Than Fuels). American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers. 1960.
    Mineralogical hardness or "scratch" hardness is as expressed in Mohs scales is an important property in evaluating abrasive materials, but it is only one of several essential properties ...
    both "scratch" hardness and toughness must be considered. ...
    The Mohs scale is inadequate both because the methods of testing are very crude and because the intervals between steps in the scale are not uniform. ...
    Numerous attempts have been made to remedy these deficiencies. Ridgway, Ballard, and Baily [1933] proposed an extension of Mohs scale to include artificially prepared substances.
  • R. W. Rice, A. G. Evans (1978). "Hardness and Its Relation to Machining". NBS Special Publication, (562): 185–187.
    Since translational motion is involved in machining operations, it would appear that scratch hardness is a more relevant parameter than the commonly used indentation hardness. ...
    Also in some earlier studies the rate of lapping was used as an extension of, or replacement for, the familiar Moh [sic] hardness scale.[14 (Wooddell 1935)]
    ((cite journal)): CS1 maint: extra punctuation (link)
  • Several current ceramic coating manufacturers name "Mohs, Ridgway, and Wooddell" as a triad, but I will not try to see whether they were influenced by WP.
  • Kevin J. Anderson. "Hardness Testing" (PDF). MRS Bulletin. Historical Note (November 1994): 7. Retrieved 2022-04-21. For all its usefulness, the Mohs scale is arbitrary and nonlinear. ... When synthetic abrasive materials become widely available at the beginning of this century, R.R. Ridgway and his co- workers, finding they needed more numbers at the high end of the scale, modified Mohs' scheme. C.E. Wooddell measured how much various minerals resisted wearing down with diamond abrasives, which allowed a finer categorization between the Mohs numbers of 9 and 10. Ridgway arbitrarily shifted the value of diamond to 15 on the scale instead of 10, which allowed them to assign hardness numbers of 12 to fused alumina, 13 to silicon carbide, and 14 to boron carbide.
  • Francis P. Bundy (1974). "Superhard Materials". Scientific American. 231 (2): 62–71. Retrieved 2022-04-21. Wooddell indexed his scale by assigning quartz and corundum their Mohs values of 7 and 9, and the scale is therefore called the Mohs-Wooddell scale.
Don't Delete (not the same as "Keep") based on the notability of Ridgway and Wooddell relative to Mohs, they are the extension of Mohs into 20th Century science.
Don't Split Ridgway and Wooddell are inseparable topics, but might not have made it into the 21st Century.
Redirect Ridgway hardness scale (syntheic ceramics) and Wooddell hardness scale to wherever this content ends up residing.
Keep or Merge with Mohs scale of mineral hardness'? That is a follow-on topic IMO: Is "scratch hardness" a broad topic (cf indent hardness) or inseparable from Mohs scale, et al?

1.) What could I improve it with?
First, this is a delete discussion, but it has ranged into development of the topic.
But, the page presently is missing clear definitions of scratch hardness (especially as compared to the other types of hardness) and scratch test (broad and narrow definitions).
I have just skimmed Ridgway 1933, and it has an interesting ​history of the topic. (link when I get out of bed tomorrow)
2.) If it's not about alternate scales, why does that take up more of the article ...
A) It is a stub. B) From Ridgway 1933, we see there are multiple scratch test methods.

Unfortunately, this article does not seem to meet Wikipedia's notability standards. That is to say nothing of Mr. Vitale personally, but I can't find anything that makes this seem a notable topic for the encyclopedia, unfortunately.

While not necessarily a rationale for deletion, this article has been heavily edited by someone who seems to be the subject, User:Tvdowntown.

See my own COI disclosure relating to Tastytrade on my userpage. TraderCharlotte (talk) 22:31, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure if I am supposed to leave in this section as well, but I am hoping you read this:
Hello TraderCharlotte. I have now been asked to add my commentary here regarding your nomination for the article, Tony Vitale, to be deleted. It seems like Sdrqaz mentioned that I should add the conversation here as opposed to, or in addition to, where we have been shading the discussion about my article. I feel I have supplied ample information and resources for my work. I have also agreed that Jade Lizard should be removed. Since you did not respond to my defense, I followed the instructions and removed the template, however once again, I may have done something wrong as I am not as savvy as you, nor Sdrqaz with the intracies of commununication on Wiki. I am, however, proud of my accomplishments as they are in line with other filmmakers who have made feature films. I have also included my New York Times interview where my film was on the cover of the Sunday Arts and Leisure section in 1997. I referenced articles like that as well as many others, yet for some reason, you are still choosing to mention that they are not acceptable. Please let me know when this discussion is complete so that I can remove the template, as per my understand as to how Wikipedia works:
Hello TraderCharlotte, it appears you have requested that my Wiki page be deleted, though I am not sure why you feel this way. The original article was published by a journalist, and a fan of my first film, KISS ME, GUIDO. Since that time, I have made edits to the article and believed that I was doing it correctly with the proper references. There are many filmmakers who have had their films, and their body of work (some with much less credibility than I), added to Wikipedia, so I am not sure why you have chosen mine for deletion. I see that you are, or have an affiliation with tastytrade. If I mentioned anything that was written about tastytrade that you do not think it is worthy, then please make the necessary edit. However, please let m know why you think my entire page shod be deleted so I can address your concern. Thank you.

To be clear to anyone reading this- I'm not affiliated with Tastytrade besides sometimes emailing people on the network. This misunderstanding has already been cleared up on Tvdowntown's talk page. TraderCharlotte (talk) 02:23, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
