Original PROD rationale: Did not locate any substantive sources on a search. The Japanese wiki article is sourced entirely to blogs/commercial sellers, so none of those sources are suitable. When I tried to search the Japanese name (アサヒファイアーアームズ) I got nothing but marketplace listings.

Article was de-PROD'd but no actual reliable sources have been added. CollectorAirsoft.com is a sales website and is not reliable, and WWII Guns appears to be an enthusiast blog, also not an RS. ♠PMC(talk) 23:37, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Wow. Looking at this edit, just wow. It's moves like this, and the lovely note left on my talk page that make wikipedia a fun and interesting place to edit. --evrik (talk) 23:42, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Moves like what? Removing unsourced, machine-translated content that you yourself tagged with a CN tag? And leaving a note reminding you that the addition of unsourced and/or machine translated content is generally to be avoided? If anyone here should be saying "wow" here, it's me, that an editor with your tenure and edit count should need reminding of basic policies like WP:V. ♠PMC(talk) 23:55, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not only did you leave me a nasty note, but you left some pithy comments in the edit history. Oh, and then not only did you revert, but you escalated by moving this to AFD. A clear example of Meta:Don't be a jerk. --evrik (talk) 04:55, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I left an explanation of my edit, as is expected for an edit summary. I'm sorry that my accurate description of the content as unsourced and machine translated was problematic for you. And of course I took it to AfD - I didn't locate any sources on a BEFORE search, and you hadn't added any. ♠PMC(talk) 01:06, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Calling me a jerk for explaining things to you in a calm and forthright manner is hardly an effective argument for keeping the article. ♠PMC(talk) 04:55, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, I'm calling you jerk for leaving a nasty note on my talk page, leaving aggressive edit summaries and escalating the prod into an AFD. — Preceding unsigned comment added by evrik (talkcontribs)
  • It is deeply ironic for you to be making personal attacks while accusing me of being rude and aggressive. I hope you strike that comment. ♠PMC(talk) 04:16, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The sources that you've added are primarily unreliable blogs and commercial sales sites. The Tokyo PD source is reliable, but is hardly significant coverage about the company. None of it meets WP:CORPDEPTH, so none of it contributes to a claim of notability in line with WP:NCORP. ♠PMC(talk) 01:18, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • When I did the 5x expansion I went with the available sources. --evrik (talk) 04:40, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Right, and the point I'm making is that none of the available sources meet the criteria for supporting a claim to notability. Hence, my argument that the article should be deleted as not meeting our notability guidelines. ♠PMC(talk) 04:51, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, perhaps if had waited longer than 15 minutes for me to expand the article, we wouldn't be having this discussion, right? --evrik (talk) 03:48, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    No? Because regardless of how much you expand the article, notability depends on the availability of reliable sources. Which you have still, after two days and lots of arguing, failed to produce. ♠PMC(talk) 04:03, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fitness Blender

Run-of-the-mill digital content publisher. There are two problems with this article. First, an article should speak for itself and explain why the subject is notable, but this article does not. There is nothing in it that identifies the significant coverage by third parties that would support corporate notability. It simply says that the company exists. What little content there is reads like a brochure. Second, the references do not provide multiple significant coverage by reliable sources. The Wall Street Journal article is independent reliable coverage. The other three references are interviews, essentially copies of each other. However, references are necessary but not sufficient, and the article is not sufficient.

1 Wall Street Journal Yes Yes Yes Yes
2 Seattle Times Interview (and puff piece) No Yes Yes No

Article about a diplomat, not properly sourcing a strong claim to passing our notability criteria for diplomats. Wikipedia long ago deprecated the notion that diplomats are "inherently" notable just because they exist, and a diplomat must now be explicitly shown to pass WP:GNG on his sourceability to qualify for an article -- but the only "source" here is a press release from DFAIT (i.e. his own employer) rather than notability-building coverage or analysis of his work, and the article's been flagged for that problem since 2013 without ever having any better sources added.

The current sources all appear to be databases and catalogs. The others are unreliable self-published websites or 404. Furthermore, they do not support every entry on the list.

The source already in the article does not constitute significant coverage: A Colorado teen fights for his life after being bitten by a black widow, and a man is attacked by a wild elephant in China in the premiere of this new survival series. That's all it has to say.

After weeding out a crapton of TV Guide listings and false positives, I looked for articles that seemed to have something to say about the show. I feel the results of my WP:BEFORE were very low:

There is no word on who the producers even are, or any other production details of the show. Does it have a host? A narrator? A director? An editor? Even IMDb is unclear on most of this. Nearly all the sources above are highly detailed on the events that were re-created for the show, but say next to nothing about the show itself, and the same seemed to be true for every subsequent one. The rest were just one-sentence blurbs in catch-all "what's on TV tonight" lists, such as the two cited here.

In short, I feel there is insufficient WP:SIGCOV of this show, and it should be either deleted or redirected to List of programs broadcast by Animal Planet. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 18:20, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to fail WP:GNG in that most sources – present in the article or from a Google search – do not provide detailed, specific information about the music video itself. Most sources also date to the release (early December 2021), with little to no coverage in sources published more recently. A mention of this video in Govinda (actor) would probably be sufficient, at best. ComplexRational (talk) 17:12, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This film article does not have enough information to establish film notability. There has already been a previous AFD, so that the question should be whether this article contains any additional information. However, it has neither a plot summary nor reception information, so that the article does not provide any third-party information. (I have not read the deleted article and so am not tagging this article for G4.) A check of the references shows not only that there is no independent secondary coverage, but that there are only three references, each of which is repeated, and they basically say that the movie exists.

Number Reference Remarks Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 www.cinestaan.com A web site providing movie information Yes No Yes No
2 timesofindia.com Advance publicity about the movie No Yes No No
3 nowrunning.com Cast listing about the movie Yes No Yes No
4 www.cinestaan.com Same as reference 1 Yes No Yes No
5 timesofindia.com Very little information except the name of the Same as reference 2 No Yes No No
6 nowrunning.com Same as reference 3 Yes No Yes No

If a plot summary and reception information can be found within seven days, a Heymann close may be possible. Otherwise this article should be draftified or deleted. (Do not salt it, because someone might find reviews.) Robert McClenon (talk) 04:02, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Searching with the hyphens brings up basically nothing, and searching without the hyphens brings up basically nothing. I'm finding listings in old government publications of FIPS code, and it appears in the pre-GNIS place name listings, but I have not seen one thing that I would refer to as WP:GNG-eligible coverage. Appearing in GNIS doesn't meet WP:GEOLAND, and neither doe the FIPS listings.

I noticed this article while putting together Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Campbell Corner, Virginia and thought I'd take a look at this one as well. I couldn't find anything on newspapers.com that was unambiguously about this place. Searching in other locations brought up a passing mention in a soil survey and a 1980s USGS publication referring to this as a locale (geography). Locales without substantial history generally don't pass WP:GEOLAND, and I'm not seeing any coverage that would indicate a WP:GNG pass. This is my first geostub AFD nomination for an Indiana location, so I'm less familiar with the "standard sources" than I would be for Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, or Missouri, so if I missed something I'm perfectly willing to be persuaded that this is notable.

No indication of notability. Seems nice enough but not sure there is enough to satisfy WP:GNG Slywriter (talk) 14:59, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning keep, but hoping for feedback. Does having a Order of the British Empire confer any notability? Also:
  1. I think there's a mention here, maybe discounted as routine notifications?: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2015/jun/12/queens-birthday-honours-list-2014-mbe
  2. His obituary does seem to have editorial oversight, so I think legit for notability? https://www.thejc.com/news/obituaries/dr-lionel-kopelowitz-jp-mbe-1.495410
  3. The book in the article has significant coverage, I'm certain of that
  4. Lots of quotes in serious newspapers.
  5. He gets 8 mentions in Brook, S. (1996). The club: the Jews of modern Britain. London: Constable.

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a music video director, not properly sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:CREATIVE. As always, filmmakers are not automatically notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia just because their work exists, and instead must show some evidence of distinction (major national-level awards, third-party media coverage, etc.) to prove that their work has been externally validated as significant -- but the strongest notability claim here is that he won a couple of "Best Local X" awards from a local-interest magazine in the city where he lives, which is not enough in and of itself, and otherwise the sourcing is almost entirely to blogs, press releases and sponsored content rather than WP:GNG-worthy media coverage. (I also had to strip 16 footnotes of the "video metaverifying its own existence on YouTube" variety, which is also not notability-supporting sourcing.)
It should also be noted that this was started in draftspace, and was then moved to mainspace without an AFC review by a different editor (not the creator) who's only been a Wikipedia contributor for a month. The page mover has otherwise only ever edited their own userpage and an as yet unapproved and unsubmitted draft about a city councillor, and thus has no established record as a qualified judge of whether articles actually pass our inclusion standards or not.

Nope ser, not true at all. First of all, this is not a paid contribution, not even close to "possibly" as she's well-covered on most fashion leading publications in the UK/World including i-D, Dazed, Vogue with not only written content but also visual documentaries. I'd recommend doing research about the topic like I did to be able to write this article. So you can check my statements one by one and can see it's all covered by the sources following my own research. Second, the reason why I created this article is because I think she's an important designer as she changed the standards for one of the most famous fashion schools, the collaborations she made with world's well-known fashion people FKA Twigs, Madonna, Bella Hadid, etc. How many Turkish fashion designers are able to reach that level in these days?

I'm not seeing GNG being met here, nor any achievement that warrants a WP article. PR coverage of one event - best soldier in her year (2 refs) - does not cut it; nor does being a Rhodes Scholar. Nor does an incidental mention in an article about a historic environmental issue (1 ref).

GNG calls for significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. What we're presented with here are, in essence, not very much local paper and trade magazine coverage of a routine event - best soldier - and nothing else.

@Shellwood: @Tagishsimon: @Maile66: I think we ought to keep the article, since it's already done, but if we don't, it's not that big a deal.
I put the Pratt article together because I made a few edits to the article on cadet first captains, and another contributor suggested that an article on the most recent incumbent might be a good idea. I had time and there were sufficient sources to use as references, so I went ahead and followed up. But it wasn't a priority or anything like that.

!Voting redirect per the arguments raised by Reywas92 as well as Theleekycauldron's link below. I did find one independent article specifically about her (from a local newspaper), but most of the remaining coverage, as noted above, seem to be about her corps in general and she only happened to be part of it. I'm not convinced that being featured in the WWE Tribute to the Troops conveys notability. I was originally considering !voting weak delete, but given that she's a possible search term (she did become First Captain only recently) and she could be notable in the future, I think a redirect to List of United States Military Academy First Captains could be a suitable compromise in the meantime.

This article fails WP:LISTN. It has been dePRODed. It was unsourced upon its creation in 2004, and has been tagged accordingly since 2010. MY WP:BEFORE is turning up zero evidence that the phenomenon of people appearing on Congolese stamps has SIGCOV in RS. The closest I found is this, a table-breakdown analysis of all Congolese stamps which notes that presidents have appeared on 69 stamps. That's not SIGCOV of the phenomenon of people appearing on these stamps. Likewise, all other info I'm seeing about Congolese stamps discuss them broadly in such a fashion geared towards information that can be placed at Postage stamps and postal history of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It's time we remove this 18-year-old relic which has no basis in RS. -Indy beetle (talk) 07:03, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

NN local street, no indication of notability. MB 06:04, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Of the streets in the inner parts of Hobart, it is notable if the time and effort had been put into editing the article - as trove adequately shows there have been activities, locations and since 1884, that go well beyond the notion of not notable, but then there's no accounting for lack of interest and effort compared to what is offered... Being parallel to Liverpool Street, it wouldnt take much to have an article the same as liverpool, its just nobody has bothered... JarrahTree 10:48, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that two streets run parallel doesn't mean that they are equally notable. We have articles about Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, but not Camden Drive which runs parallel to it, and Wall Street in Manhattan, but not Pine Street which runs parallel to it. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 15:10, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
To clarify a possible misunderstanding - Hobart in Tasmania in Australia in the city centre has blocks of historically important buildings and addresses which are spread throughout the centre, where streets and blocks are in no way 'more notable' than others, I had not even considered liverpool as being more notable or less than this street when I put the comment up - as a current mainland Australian, I would agree with your assertion that sometime parallel streets in some central city areas in the mainland of Australia have exactly what you say, real drop off between blocks or streets of significant historic or notable structures - as a former resident of Hobart/Tasmania I believe the point made is possibly a misunderstanding the dynamic of historic city centre areas such as Hobart which due to its early city development which locates a spread of significant historic places. Due to the nature of the spread of significant items within the streetscapes of the city from the 1830s, the existence of the Catholic church buildings on the corner with the harrington street, and the mix of the notable prohibitionist group, as well as the congregational buuldings, I believe that brisbane street material that is easily available on trove (where most of the citations come from) show that it is a component of the Hobart city centre historical fabric that is neither greater or lesser than the parallel Liverpool street.

The result was delete. The keep !votes seem to be some mixture of ILIKEIT and dismissing LISTN out of hand. People on stamps may be inherently notable, but that is a potential topic for an RfC elsewhere instead of this deletion discussion because it is not rooted in current policy. On the other hand, the delete !votes sit on LISTN and NOTDIR.

First, no evidence whatsoever exists that any of these meets WP:NLIST. Heck, even a very generic "People on postage stamps" doesn't appear to do show anything amounting to WP:SIGCOV (only seems to throw up a few pages about how at some point in the recent past the US Postal Service relaxed rules against depicting living people on them) - and that's for the broad subject, not for the individual intersections of it.

Otherwise, all of these pages fail WP:NOTDIRECTORY (as generally "Simple listings without contextual information showing encyclopedic merit."); and furthermore, because having this is definitively a WP:BADIDEA, as Wikipedia is not a philatelical catalogue and there is no indication how this kind of page is of any broader encyclopedic significance. An encyclopedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, even if it is true, and despite it possibly being interesting to a limited number of dedicated enthusiasts.

The only of the above pages which has anything even remotely resembling actual encyclopedic content (the Azerbaijan page) only has a verbose lead which isn't supported by any source for most of it, and the only meaningful non-trivial content actually cited to a source is already in Postage stamps and postal history of Azerbaijan), so there's nothing to merge or redirect anywhere even in the best of cases. Shows how unencyclopedic the whole of this is.

Keep Satisfies Wikipedia:LISTCRITERIA. Supported by reliable sources (professional catalogues which have been in continuous publication, some for over a hundred years). Not an indiscriminate list (strictly limited by a country's issuing policy). Absolutely not a trivial matter - stamps may be a bit 'old-fashioned' today but in many people's living memory they were everyday items with regular news articles - in fact about 30 years ago one American 'person on a postage stamp' was major international news. Daveosaurus (talk) 02:14, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Go look up WP:LISTN - Notability guidelines also apply to the creation of stand-alone lists and tables. Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group. 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, per the above guidelines. No source whatsoever exists which discusses as a group "the people who have appeared on the postage stamps of [x]" for the vast majority of countries (including all of these listed here); and the burden is on those claiming they do exist. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 11:25, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I note that it's phrased as "one accepted reason", not "the only accepted reason". List of national capitals does not mention any source that discusses national capitals as a group, for instance. Stan (talk) 11:48, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That really takes the cake. It is trivial to find sources talking about the concept of national capitals or listing them (ex. Britannica). Sources giving a detailed list of "people on the postage stamps of countries" or discussing the topic as a group, however... RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 12:04, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If that Britannica article is sufficient, then so is Miniature Messages, or the general discussion of the choice of stamp subjects in Williams's Fundamentals of Philately starting at p. 91. Going back a little further, A Hundred Years of Postage Stamps by Patrick Hamilton starts with the discussion of the stamp as "a printed symbol of authority", and later talks about how "the scope of the portrait stamp was extended from the depicting of rulers and politicians" to "famous men [...] singled out for, usually posthumous, honour", continuing in that vein for several pages describing subcategories of people on stamps, such as artists. Stan (talk) 13:17, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And where is that coverage of the specific "people on the stamps of country X"? Where does it discuss the "group of people who have appeared on the stamps of country X" as required by WP:LISTN?

Keep Saying "unencyclopedic" over and over using different words does not make it so. Jack Child's Miniature Messages has a number of discussions of the political significance of who appears on Latin American nations' postage stmaps and when. Persons interested in List of people on the postage stamps of the Faroe Islands recently made a good case for retention, and for the US, the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee has a number of rules with the general goal of ensuring that only the most notable individuals make the cut. When persons interested in a particular country are informed that the stamps of their country are being dismissed as insignificant, we are seeing pushback, and lack of such really speaks more to Wikipedia's lack of breadth and depth, than to any inherent lack of notability. Stan (talk) 02:44, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Saying "unencyclopedic" over and over using different words does not make it so. Conversely, saying "this is important" does not make it so. As for the comparisons, these are neither lists about US stamps or Faroe Islands stamps. the stamps of their country are being dismissed as insignificant A textbook example of a strawman - nobody has dismissed the stamps as insignificant; what is the issue here is that these pages fail WP:NOT (Wikipedia is not a philatelical catalogue as explained above) and WP:NLIST. Whether the stamps are significant or insignificant is entirely irrelevant, these are not articles about the stamps but articles about the people who appeared on them, and given that no secondary, reliable source has covered these groups to a sufficient depth, they are not suitable for inclusion on Wikipedia, as Wikipedia does not engage in generating coverage of topics which have not been covered elsewhere.

I can't speak for the particular countries in this nomination (or the dozens of other individual nominations about other countries), but it might well be the case that lists or articles about people on stamps could be found in country-specific philatelic literature. The problem with such literature is that in many cases it is not widely distributed or readily accessible, and older publications can be hard to come by, so finding sources is not necessarily an easy task.

    1. is about US stamps (not under discussion here)
    2. is an intersection of people on stamps and religion/ethnicity, not people on stamps and nationality
    3. same as 2.; replace "religion/ethnicity" with "occupation"
    4. is about Serbia, and is specifically about women (and might very well be suited to expanding Postage stamps and postal history of Serbia without needing a whole all-inclusive list)
    5. see no. 3
    In short, none of these sources are relevant. Considering most of them are not even about a nationality/stamps intersection... RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 04:43, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The subject of the deletion discussion is very wide. Imagine if someone proposed to delete the article for USA. Would someone have to present one source that covered every aspect of USA? Probably we'd see clearly that there will be multiple books, articles and news sources that covered different parts of USA. I see this the same way. In the context of lumping so many different countries together, not geographically, not in any way other than alphabetically, people arguing to keep are forced to make some sort of generalisation. If the nominator wanted a specific discussion about the specific merits of each one, they could make 9 different nominations, but they chose not to. So we're presumably expected to argue about postage stamps and people. I think I've done that. CT55555 (talk) 05:05, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Honestly I don't even understand why we would need specific literature about people on stamps of a country and not just catalogs. Because catalogues are often WP:INDISCRIMINATE, and Wikipedia is not. You might as well use a phone book to create a "list of phone numbers in X region". Does that sound ridiculous? It does, and yet such a list would have the same source-backing as most of these stamps cross-categorization lists. Also, Nobel prize winners have been discussed collectively in groups by RS, thus satisfying LISTN. The !vote you give appears to be WP:ILIKEIT. -Indy beetle (talk) 00:18, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Original research--particularly the first sentence. That prose can have rhythm and flow is not new: all good prose is musical. That certain books about musical topics are supposed to be musical is a matter of judgment, which would need serious secondary sourcing. The only sourcing here is a book called "Rock Fiction", which is a collection of stories about rock and roll--a completely different thing. Drmies (talk) 21:29, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article fails WP:GNG, as the subject is completely lacking in WP:SIGCOV from independent WP:RS. The last time this was nominated this was closed as "no consensus" because many editors cited WP:NFOOTY, which no longer exists. My WP:BEFORE is showing only WP:ROUTINE soccer match coverage of Bukuru with sporadic mentions in the international sports press, either in a list of the match lineup or things like "Bukuru scored a goal this game". No hits from Burundi's sole private national newspaper, Iwacu. No hits from the government newspaper Le Renouveau. No hits from Jimbere Magazine, a Burundian magazine which focuses on women's issues. As for the current sources cited thus far:
