Only primary sources. Looks like a minor character who had a page created for completion purposes. Big Money Threepwood (talk) 16:49, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think this is accurate, what about the sources listed in the further reading section? (t · c) buidhe 01:54, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Buidhe: from what I can see those are either non-independent or have passing mentions of the subject(s?) but no significant coverage. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 02:07, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, I'm not seeing significant coverage in independent sources of either the name Zoram or any of the three Book of Mormon figures so named. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 02:07, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, with no prejudice against recreating as a DAB page for articles like Zoram Nationalist Party and Zoram People's Movement as well as First Nephi. This article is three Zorams in a trenchcoat. Two of the Zorams are answers to Sunday school trivia questions. They're only here to fill out the trenchcoat, and aren't actually relevant to the main Zoram topic. There could be an argument that the main Zoram is notable under GNG, but thanks to the rest of the notability guideline after the first part, we don't even have to have that argument. Listen: More or less the same Zoram content already exists in First Nephi. WP:NOPAGE, which is part of the notability guideline, suggests that when we have a choice like this we should consider presenting information to readers in broader context where possible, and WP:NNC, which is also part of the notability guideline, teaches us that we need not argue about the notability of contents within an article. So this is a rare occasion where we can productively skip the traditional GNG/do-sources-contribute-to-notability headbutting, because the best outcome here for readers is to ditch the three Zorams in a trenchcoat and use any appropriate sources to improve already existing content about the main Zoram elsewhere in the encyclopedia, where it is already presented in a broader context. Optional bonus: we can help our readers and improve Zoram-related navigation with the most likely search term as the title of a DAB page. Indignant Flamingo (talk) 05:27, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
