  • Keep - Don't understand nominator's rationale. Article is well sourced, maintained and used in context with the aircraft article -- Whats new?(talk) 00:43, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Whats new? I think it is a well written article, and is probably helpful to someone, however, I'm not sure how it endimic to Wikipedia's goals. I am open to being persuaded. L3X1 My Complaint Desk 02:07, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well an AfD needs rationale to delete, and I'm not sure what yours was. It is sourced so WP:V is not an issue, and orders and deliveries of these planes are well covered in RS so WP:N is met as well. Seems to me that this (and similar) articles about aircraft orders and deliveries have been split out into separate articles only because their inclusion in their parent article would make the sections too long. -- Whats new?(talk) 02:11, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
My rationale was "I don't believe this article belongs on Wikipedia". I'm not going to cire NOTABILITY because that would be useless. However, I have reviewed both the article, and the 787 article and I am agree that this article is not bad. What I don't get, is, why do we care who has ordered how many planes?? I have been interested in planes for a long time, but I fail to see why order forms, no matter how well written and sourced, are interesting enough to be on Wikipeda.L3X1 My Complaint Desk 03:09, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
With respect, that's not really a valid rationale per WP:DEL-REASON. Wikipedia is not about what is interesting to you. -- Whats new?(talk) 04:02, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that would seem to be an example of WP:WHOCARES, which is not the sort of thing that represents a policy-based argument. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 04:16, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I dare say the reason why this article exists is because including it all at Boeing 787 Dreamliner would make that article section too long, and it was appropriately broken out with the summary left in. -- Whats new?(talk) 01:37, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be deleted as it is does not have "significant coverage" in reliable sources. A WP:BEFORE search revealed [1] but that is not enough to be notable under WP:GNG. -KAP03(Talk • Contributions) 22:51, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Technology-related deletion discussions. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 23:51, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Authors response: I added more references and links to other articles. There is a lot of articles on power saving devices on the web but all are from vendors. Therefore it is important to have a more neutral article about this topic. It can hardly be avoided that it is technical, but it is not more technical than other articles on electrical power. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.95.198.70 (talk) 12:19, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete – per nom. Kendall-K1 (talk) 13:14, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Although it would be possible to have an article on power-saving devices, this is not that article. It is completely off-topic, a ramble through various power-related themes, and is essentially nonsense. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:47, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – there is plenty of good content that could be included in a WP article with this sort of title, and such an article should be brought into existence, but the current content is neither good enough nor likely to be edited into a useful article; this is a bad start for an article. (My biggest problem with this article is not that it is a poor presentation of the material (although this is the case) but that the topic that the originating author has in mind seems to be much more limited that the article title would suggest. The author needs to either start over and write a more general article that matches the title (if this does not already exist in WP) or come up with a more narrow title that more closely matches what they seem to want to cover.)-71.174.175.150 (talk) 15:05, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There's thick signs this is a clear unconfessed company advertisement and there's still been no attempts made at confirming it, therefore given the newest changes have only emphasized the advertising: "Still nothing for actual independent notability and substance since it's only what they would advertise to clients and that alone is unacceptable in our non-negotiable policies and there's no automatic inherited notability from anything or anyone else; the sources here are all clear business announcements and mentions, and wouldn't even be enough for our basic policies.".

  • Weak delete - This article falls in a tricky area in my view, because it probably meets WP:N and WP:V given the coverage in RS, including those already in the article, but the article is overtly written like an ad. "A couple of years ago we set out to transform..." is a glaring example within existing text. It can't be allowed to stand like this as it fails WP:NEUTRAL, so I think WP:BLOWITUP is the way to go, with no prejudice against an objective editor recreating at some point in the future. -- Whats new?(talk) 10:02, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article was nominated for deletion 2011 and closed as No Consensus. At the AfD, some people claimed that there were Google hits, but none were provided. None have been added to the article since then. The article as it is written almost qualifies for BLP PROD, but I am sending it to AfD to be safe. A Google News search for "'Daniel Southern' evangelist" (name in quotes) shows no hits. – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:40, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly unconfessed company advertising considering the one account has not only focused with this one article but then also reviewed and accepted it themselves, showing they knew exactly what would've happened had it been AfC-Reviewed; this also follows the same pattern as the past account (see User talk:InternMary, which shows this company is knowingly violating no-advertising policies.

Cagematch is the most cited source and is proven reliable at WP:PW/RS. It's second most cited source is Wrestlingdata, which is fine for match and show results only, which is all it's used for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TDOldSpice (talkcontribs) 19:57, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Cagematch is only for results. Wrestlingdata is not considered a reliable source per WP:PW/RS. Here it is used as a source for birthname, birthplace, weight, height and trainers. Internet Wrestling Database and 411Mania are not reliable either and WrestleZone is just flat out unreliable. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(ZOOM) 21:06, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:TNT. Notability is theoretically possible here, but the article as written is far too résumé-advertorial in tone, and far too dependent on primary sources with no evidence of reliable source coverage shown — the few references here that are reliable sources are not about Vadym Pozharskyi, but simply confirm tangential facts about the company without even once mentioning Pozharskyi's name in conjunction with anything. No prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write and source it better than this, but nothing here is good enough to stand in this form.

River does not appear to have received coverage in anything outside of Wikipedia and its mirrors and apparently a few maps. Does not qualify under WP:GEOLAND, though it apparently does exist. KDS4444 (talk) 14:38, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Not doing any harm as is, and GEOLAND is sufficiently vague so as to leave it open to interpretation. L3X1 My Complaint Desk 14:43, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Obviously important. That there are few English language sources on this Georgian river does not make it unimportant. Or make it disappear. In fact, this is a WP:Systemic bias in Wikipedia we ought to overcome. Presumably there are Georgian language sources, but I am unaware of a handy Rosetta stone for that one. I don't know how much Google interacts with Georgian media, if at all.
WP:GEOLAND provides: Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc. The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article. If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the feature can instead be included in a more general article on local geography. For example, a river island with no information available except name and location should probably be described in an article on the river.

Keep All aticles on rivers are kept; I'm not sure how nom thinks it doesn't meet GEOLAND. Boleyn (talk) 20:49, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Okay, what I am getting here (other than a load of hostility) is that all rivers are notable regardless of whether or not any information about them can be found beyond their mere existence/ coordinates on a map. This appears like a contradiction to what the guidelines are at WP:GEOLAND, which specifically state that information beyond existence and coordinates are required in order to warrant an article on a geographic feature, and that actual sources are required to do so (rather than hypothetical ones in a foreign language, which may or may not exist— there is no article yet on the Georgian Wikipedia on this river to help substantiate this). The only Google Books hit on this river is this very Wikipedia article, and of the 15 hits on Google anywhere for this river (in English) most appear to be mirrors of Wikipedia. If I am misinterpreting the text of WP:GEOLAND then I politely ask the other editors involved here to explain that to me (rather than offer insults, which are unlikely to move this conversation forward). Also please note that I am not suggesting that this river "disappear" (which is ludicrous)— I am suggesting that it is not notable, and that its mere existence does not make it notable (in the same way that every street in every small town in American is not likely to be notable, or every building in that town, or every steeple, or every person, or every fence post). While I am not opposed to the idea of possibly redirecting the subject to another namespace (maybe some river into which it flows), unless someone can provide some kind of evidence that the river is actually notable (and doesn't merely exists) then I have to stand by my nomination and ask others to make a better effort than has been shown above to demonstrate how it is notable and therefore warrants this article. "All articles on rivers are kept"— the logic there is the basic fallacy on which the rest of the Keep votes seem to rest... I can make a river out of a hose and a 5-gallon bucket of water, and give it a name, and some coordinates, but that will not make it notable. A less knee-jerk justification feels needed here, one that is not based on the words "all" and "always", which are ways to railroad a more polite and more nuanced conversation.

@L3X1: That's the reason why we should not use obscure initialisms. If I had met this article at NPP, it had probably not occurred to me that we had List of Lebanese people in Denmark, to be honest. If I had figured that out, I would just have WP:BLANKANDREDIRECTED as the title format looks valid, cf. the other articles in Category:Lebanese diaspora, and that solution is a valid WP:ATD.

This article duplicates information that exists at the national team page of Israel. Therefore its unnecessary. Nations at the xxx pages are also reserved for events with multiple sports or disciplines. This one focuses on just one sport. Also quoting Peter Rehse, from another similar AFD [2], There is nothing demonstrating that [the country] performed anywhere near notable."

  • Delete all Except Hopman Cup As I stated in the prior AfD, most of these these fail WP:SPORTSEVENT and WP:NOTSTATS. They should have been included in that one, but a simple oversight doesn't justify their continued inclusion. However, we do appear to have articles on other teams which have qualified for the Hopman Cup (see, for instance France at the Hopman Cup), so those should probably be taken to a separate AfD if we want to establish consensus. Also, seeing as the Hopman Cup is essentially the national tennis team, similar to Davis Cup and Fed Cup, I'm not sure the same circumstances apply. Smartyllama (talk) 14:06, 31 January 2017 (UTC) Delete European Baseball Championships article, Keep others - given the existence of other similar articles and the comments by Nfitz below, if nominator feels they are all not notable, they should be nominated as a group, not like this. However, those articles are only for tournaments that the teams have actually qualified for. Israel has never qualified for the Israel Baseball Championship, and to my knowledge no similar articles exist for that tournament anyway as it is a relatively minor one compared to the other two so the means of doing the AfD is not an issue.

  • Keep - Countries at the AFC Asian cup is not uncommon. You have not stated what WP policy you are basing your conclusion on only multiple sports competitions should have their own page. See Australia at the AFC Asian Cup, Iraq at the AFC Asian Cup, South Korea at the AFC Asian Cup for some AFC Asian Cup examples.

      • @Galatz: You and Nifitz have managed to convince me on retaining the AFC and WBC ones, but I'm still not convinced the European Baseball Championships one should be kept. First of all, it's a much more minor tournament than the other two. Second, the article is much less developed than the other two (or at least the WBC one) and is basically WP:NOTSTATS. Third of all, Israel has never actually qualified for the European Baseball Championship, unlike the other two tournaments. Fourth of all, there are no similar articles for other countries at that tournament, even those who have qualified, so Nfitz's argument that they should all be nominated together and not like this doesn't apply.

  • Keep - I'm uncomfortable deleting Israel at the AFC Asian Cup when looking at Template:Countries at the UEFA European Championship there's over 30 articles for various countries at the comparable UEFA European Championship. Other stuff exists sometimes for a good reason. Also, I'm not sure why Israel is being singled out here, in various sports - rather than tackling it on a sport-by-sport basis - or at least not massing together multiple sports. It doesn't lead to a very clean process. I'm aware that Israel at the UEFA European Championship was deleted in the referenced Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Israel at the FIBA Basketball World Cup, however the example is not comparable, as Isreal has never qualified for the UEFA tournament, but has qualified for the similar AFC one. Nfitz (talk) 22:47, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment @Nfitz: Israel has never qualified for the European Baseball Championship. Should that be kept as well? That being said, you've convinced me on the tournaments Israel actually has qualified for (AFC and WBC) and I'm going to alter my !vote above accordingly. I still think the European Baseball one should be deleted as a) Israel has never qualified for it, and b) it's a much more minor tournament compared to the other two. If you are only referring to the AFC page in your !vote, which it seems like you might be given you specifically referenced it and not the others, and that some of the arguments don't even apply to the others, please alter it accordingly to make it more clear to the closing admin. Smartyllama (talk) 13:52, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Personally, in a mass AFDs, when they are poorly thought out, I think they should all be kept, and some should be resubmitted to AFD later, individually, or in smaller, more sensible groups. Every AFD in the football area I've seen from this person has been problematic, starting with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Luxembourg women's international footballers which was shocking, and was a snow keep in hours. Even in the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Israel at the FIBA Basketball World Cup referenced above, it managed to sneak in Israel at the FIFA World Cup, but then failed to notify any of the WP:FOOTBALL community that it was going on - surely at a mininum, that should have been a redirect to Israel national football team; I'm not sure why you supported that deletion, rather than a redirect, given what else exists (i.e. Template:Countries at the FIFA World Cup), and I'm not sure why User:CambridgeBayWeather went along with it. I remain concerned, that there seems to be an attempt to strictly remove Isreali articles; we all know that and AFD for Brazil at the FIFA World Cup would fail. Nfitz (talk) 14:54, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You failed the answer the question at hand! Instead of accusing someone of attempting to remove Israeli articles please provide valid reasons why they should be kept (especially the European Baseball Championship). It was mentioned earlier OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a valid argument. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 15:04, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I did answer it. I think the AFD is fatally flawed, all articles should be kept, and if necessary, do a new AFD for the baseball one (which I'm not really qualified to comment on) individually. Nfitz (talk) 15:28, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Nfitz: I'm not sure why you didn't bring that template up in that AfD, considering it would have led me and possibly others to change my vote on that article. But that has nothing to do with this AfD, especially with an article that has nothing whatsoever to do with the sport. Answer the question concerning the European Baseball Championship, and stop ignoring it and making excuses. You're always welcome to contact the closing admin or take it to deletion review if that fails. I, for one, would support restoring the World Cup article in light of the new information. However, this AfD is not the place to discuss a previous one. Baseball isn't football, so stop using football arguments about baseball as they are irrelevant. Smartyllama (talk) 15:15, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Also, when we make separate AfD's for each article, people complain that there are too many and it's unfair to make people deal with all of them. When we propose them together, people complain about that too. You can't have it both ways. Smartyllama (talk) 15:22, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Because I was unaware that the AFD was underway. It wasn't listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Nominations for deletion and page moves, Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Football, or the WP:Football article alerts, which I keep an eye on (thank you though for listing this one!). If I saw the name of the AFD itself, there was nothing in the title to make me think it was something I should look at. Had I been aware of the AFD, I would have commented on this issue; this is the problem of trying to mass AFD unrelated articles. I don't think I've ever complained about separate AFDs. I can't fathom putting FIFA World Cup deletions inside an article about Baseball, and then failing to notify any of the Football deletions areas. Nfitz (talk) 15:28, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Nfitz: There is already a deletion review in progress for that AfD, which Galatz started earlier today. That is the place to discuss concerns with that AfD, not here. This page should deal only with the articles in this AfD. Please move all further discussion on the earlier AfD over there.

I have answered the question twice now. Because I feel the entire AFD is flawed, with unrelated articles, that are no way in the same category. I see no reason to keep asking me the same question that I've already answered. Nfitz (talk) 15:49, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree completely. I brought it up here because I believe the tournament is notable, as that discussion shows. If when looked at individually an individual year is notable, how could the tournament not be? Its completely relevant. - GalatzTalk 16:10, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Except that that page was ultimately deleted for not being notable in a later AfD. Which is why your statement that it was kept is misleading. If you feel it should have been kept, that's what deletion review is for, but this is not the place to discuss that.Smartyllama (talk) 16:11, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And I disagree with that. I think it being lumped with everything else was misleading. My comment stands and let someone who is looking at it determine if its relevant or misleading. - GalatzTalk 16:13, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And again, that's a discussion for DRV, not here. At the very least, I recommend you edit it to note the fact that it was later deleted in a mass AfD, while voicing your concerns about the process in which that happened, so people are aware of the totality of the circumstances without having to read all the ways down the comment tree. Smartyllama (talk) 16:15, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The AFD isn't entirely irrelevant here, as it was mentioned in the nominating statement, as justification for deleting these articles. However the AFD has been challenged at DRV, in particular on the basis that the articles like those here, should have been kept; and no one seems to be disagreeing with that. Nfitz (talk) 17:11, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And I've said the AFC and WBC articles should be kept. To date, nobody has made a similar argument for the European Baseball Championship except one person who said "Keep" without specifying any reason at all, which shouldn't be counted. And we're talking about that here, that's what's relevant. I encourage the closing admin to keep that in mind. Smartyllama (talk) 17:29, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Perhaps it would be best for the nominator to withdraw this temporarily and reopen it again as necessary depending on the results of the DRV. We're having discussions in too many places here and it's causing unneeded confusion. Also, some people might change their votes depending on the outcome of the DRV. If the FIFA World Cup article stays deleted after review, I can see no rational argument for keeping the article about a continental tournament. I think they should both be kept, but the FIFA World Cup one is clearly more notable, and if that were to stay deleted, I would be reluctant to keep the AFC one for consistency's sake. Given the small number of articles compared to last time, I would also suggest the nominator nominate them separately when he reopens it if he chooses to do it that way. Smartyllama (talk) 17:33, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Per Smartyllama, I am going to withdraw this afd. I do not believe articles should exist for events a country has not qualified for so the baseball one will come up again in the future. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 01:50, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:CLOSEAFD non-admin closure for withdrawal is only if no one else voted to delete. Not really sure in this situation since Smartyllama and nominator are the two who voted delete and both say to close. Perhaps Smartyllama could close? - GalatzTalk 02:24, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Can't the nominator withdraw at anytime for any reason? L3X1 My Complaint Desk 02:31, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It says at WP:CLOSEAFD As mentioned above, the AfD nominator can withdraw the nomination and close a discussion as speedy keep reason #1, if all other viewpoints expressed were for Keep and doing so does not short-circuit an ongoing discussion. In essense with Smartyllama closing it takes away his delete vote, making only the nominator voting delete. - GalatzTalk 02:53, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WP:BLP of a person notable as the founder of an organization, and as a non-winning candidate in a party primary for a state legislature seat. Neither of these is an automatic notability freebie in and of itself in the absence of adequate reliable source coverage about her to get her over WP:GNG -- but the referencing present here is entirely of the primary sourcing variety: the election is "referenced" to her own campaign website and a raw table of the primary election results, and her founding of the JWW is "referenced" to the JWW's own website rather than to media coverage about her in that role. In a nutshell, neither the substance nor the sourcing here is enough to get her in the door. There's also a probable conflict of interest here, as the creator's username was "Acereznik".

Battle of Al-Tabqa Dam (2017)

Battle of Al-Tabqa Dam (2017) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article was recently created by User:Deathlibrarian. Most of the article is not even about the topic "battle", except maybe the last sentence. What is more, about half of the article is unsourced. Even where sources are used, they cannot be called reliable or neutral. Kurdistan24 is a pro-Kurdish source, South Front although not pro-Kurdish is pro-Russian and anti-ISIL. Also a Twitter handle of a little-known source is used. Most of the stuff isn't even about battle, it's just unsourced and needlessly overbloated non-battle stuff of information about the dam or poorly sourced non-battle info about what the two sides have done. This article didn't even need to be created. Battle of al-Tabqa Dam could easily be covered in Raqqa offensive (2016–present). The capture of the dam is part of the offensive. And there isn't enough sognificant and large information that there will be need for a separate article. This article should therefore be deleted. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 22:03, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks (talk) I've removed the twitter reference and added some more, to make sure it is better referenced. This is actually a larger city, bigger than for instance Al-Bab. It's a major operation, involving securing a dam, and involves US air support, and both US special forces and SDF special forces. It's also an example of a rare amphibous operation in Syria. Deathlibrarian (talk) 22:18, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Wait, the situation is ongoing. Please let the author some time to work peacefully. --Yug (talk) 22:49, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Wait, I agree with Yug. This might end up being a big battle, for which a seperate article would be fitting. I think, however, that in this case the article should be renamed "Battle of Al-Tabqa/al-Thawra" to include both the fighting for the dam as well as the nearby city. Applodion (talk) 23:14, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: By now I has become clar that for the time being no major battle will take place at al-Thawra. Applodion (talk) 16:17, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
All I notice in form of real "conflict" is US airstrikes and ISIL releasing the water (which actually doesn't fall under the word conflict). The Twitter reference isn't the only one. 3 sources are still biased and somewhat unreliable: Kurdistan24, Al-Masdar News and South Front. One is ok, but three? Especially I haven't seen anyone using Kurdistan24. The attack on the dam as well as the city can easily be covered under the offensive and most of the article doesn't even seem about any actual conflict. About half is unsourced. And the article as a whole seems poorly written. The lede should briefly detail the battle, instead it is talking about the dam. There isn't even any infobox. Please bring this article to the proper standards and rewrite it properly quickly, otherwise there is no reason to keep it. I am ok with it if this ends up being a big and significant battle. But right now it hardly is in the beginning stages. Regardless, if this article is properly rewritten, then I'll consider withdrawing the deletion proposal.

Apparently the SDF and the US have a media blackout on the op, so there isn't as much news on it as could be (clearly it was a suprise operation, there was nothing about it from official channels, just locals and third party news sources). There *is* actual fighting going on, according to the sources, with US special forces and SDF troops fighting ISIS in "the first quarter" of the town. As people have said, situation is ongoing, but probably another 12 hours will give us a more clearer picture. Deathlibrarian (talk) 01:36, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Deathlibrarian, per your latest additions, although unsourced, SDF already withdrew from their attacking positions after ISIL released water from the dam. If so, there is no more need for this article as it doesn't have any significant content, the "battle" lasted for only a short while, if it can be described a battle that is. Besides the ISIL counterattack was in SDF-control areas in noryh of Euphrates river aka Raqqa's western countryside, not in Tabqa or the dam. (http://www.syriahr.com/en/?p=59764) I don't see any reason at all now to keep the article. I think it is better the article is deleted now. If there is a significant battle in the future, then we'll create it again.

MonsterHunter32 (talk) 01:31, 25 January 2017 (UTC) It's a bit confusing, but from Southfront and other sources, it would seem there *was* a battle in the town. According to this article, https://southfront.org/us-special-forces-ypg-units-conduct-saboteur-raid-against-isis-in-tabqa/ US special forces and the SDF crossed the river and attacked the town - but they appear to have retreated. Whether it was a probe attack, recon, or seizeing individuals, it's hard to say. There was then a counterattack by IS. So this seems to be early stages of the battle. I think as others have said, best to wait to see what the next stage of this battle is, but as it is a large town, and would seem to be fairly fortified, it's certainly not just 20 guys taking a village.

Delete: There were 3 interpretations going the rounds: 1) nothing happened (it was nothing but rumours); 2) there was a commando raid aimed at ISIS commanders and records; 3) there was a landing between Tabqa and the dam in an attempt to take the dam from both sides. The last was reported to come from an official Raqqa Hawks source, but in the absence of subsequent reports it seems likely that they were inaccurate. The second (and especially the first) doesn't qualify as a battle, and there don't seem to be reliable sources for it either. Lavateraguy (talk) 13:21, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Does not appear to be a notable online game; a search found only web forums and other unreliable websites.

This article has been removed a few times actually, however I'm hoping the Wikipedia community can hear out a few factors. The game is totally free - there are no purchases possible. Unlike other games in this day and age, where there's always a hidden purchase somewhere, or even an advert, this game has none of that. It's truly a community game, and as a result of money not being a motivating factor, it's existed for over 16 years. It shares the community, ethos and spirit of Wikipedia itself in a lot of ways - except the content being produced is fictional. That's the second point I'd like to make - this is a wonderfully unique and interesting game whereby it simulates societies like no other game I've ever come across. It has an eclectic mix of player types - from people learning a language, to people who like roleplay, to students wanting to improve their linguistic skills, to those who want to participate in simulating a society, to those who just want to play a text based game, and so much more. We feel that a Wikipedia presence would give us a pivotal legitimacy. We're not going to make any money from a Wikipedia listing, and we're not going to hide any facts or try to make it into an advert. We just want a place to share interesting facts (which we will source and provide) as the society evolves. We want to share our learnings in a reputable, safe place so that future readers can learn and read about a one-of-a-kind adventure that is yet to be repeated.

I'm pleading with the Wikipedia community to consider allowing this article in light of those points. I will personally take on responsibility for ensuring the article is very well sourced, and in time, begins giving back by sharing really interesting data and learnings that were generated from the game. In this way I hope I can bring value to Wikipedia. Lassaris (talk) 08:45, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may want to read Wikipedia:Subjective importance, specifically the section "Age". Also, you may want to read Wikipedia:Alternative outlets, which points to other websites which could be a more accepting place to share your information. I'm sorry it has to be this way, but in my opinion, to cut a long story short, the article simply does not meet our inclusion guidelines. However, given that this is an AfD discussion, there will be seven (or more) days for others to make a consensus on the fate of the article, and it's still possible that the article will be kept if other users make valid arguments as to why the article should be kept. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:55, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And it looks like it deleted at AFD a decade ago too. If nothing has changed in the way of third parties writing articles about it, the odds aren't looking good - things were much more lenient in the 2000s, so if it couldn't survive then, I don't know how it would now. It needs to meet the WP:GNG - basically, having reliable sources write about the subject in signicant detail. I personally didn't find anything like that in my quick initial search...

  • Delete Nothing to assert notability. The one (now dead) link would apparently support when the work was taped. That doesn't assert notability either. We have no way of verifying any of it. Further, there's no claim of significance. This is possibly even a candidate for WP:CSD#A7. There are a ton of these; see List of Paris by Night episodes. A cursory review of some of the others that have articles show no claims of significance in them either. The list is, by itself, probably sufficient.

Opinion. You really don't think the executive head of the national lawyers' organisation for an entire country might be notable? Fair enough, but I completely disagree with you. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:04, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Would it change your opinion if the secretary weren't the executive head? Because they aren't; the vice-chairman is. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:59, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
good point. even if he was executive head, there is no inherent notability attached to such a position. Necrothesp would be better served finding actual significant coverage to demonstrate WP:BIO is met. LibStar (talk) 03:12, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That's certainly not what it implies here. It's like the difference between the chairman of the board of a company and the CEO. The latter is the actual executive head of the company. Same with the secretary of this organisation. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:40, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Necrothesp: You may be reading more into the page of officers (who aren't members of the Bar Council) than is there. The comparison to a CEO is not apt. My reading of The Bangladesh Legal Practitioners and Bar Council Order and Rules, 1972 is that the position is what would commonly be called secretary-treasurer. They are responsible for convening the first meeting, after which ordinary meetings are convened by the chairman or vice-chairman. They are responsible for taking minutes. Certain things must be delivered to or by the secretary. Payments are made to the secretary. They maintain a cash book and disburse funds for all petty expenditures, but no payment shall be made except upon the order of the chairman or vice-chairman. In an emergency, the chairman may designate any person to act as secretary. In my experience, a CEO makes key decisions on policy and strategy. The secretary is a day-to-day administrator, but they are not a decision maker, it is not a leadership position. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:39, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I would disagree about the role of a secretary in an organisation such as this. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:35, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No need to apologize, you're more than welcome to your opinion. I'm having trouble following your reasoning, though. Do you think the secretary does something vital that I'm not seeing in the Bar Council Rules? The organisation would certainly fail if no one ordered stationery, took minutes, and kept the accounts, but does performing those functions, for any sort of organization, really make a person notable? --Worldbruce (talk) 09:02, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The secretary runs the day-to-day business of the association. He is therefore effectively its chief executive. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:11, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I presume you have done a search as always for significant coverage to establish this person meets WP:BIO. LibStar (talk) 15:44, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As always, I have expressed an opinion and would cite WP:BURO and WP:IAR to counter those who incorrectly continue to believe that Wikipedia is bound by strict rules that are incapable of being broken even on the grounds of common sense. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:50, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:IAR hardly trumps notability guidelines. Otherwise it would be a free for all for every single article. What surprises me the most, is that you are extremely unwilling to use the best means to save an article, prove there exists significant coverage. Instead you waste your time arguing inherent notability based on position. You used to argue all ambassadors are inherently notable, then it softened to all ambassadors to "major" (and not defined ) countries are notable. Neither holds any weight and is not backed by consensus. You never use the proper channel and open a discussion on WP:BIO to get a certain occupation to have inherent notability. LibStar (talk) 15:57, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
in fact WP:BURO states Furthermore, policies and guidelines themselves may be changed to reflect evolving consensus. None of your " position X is inherently notable " ever reflect consensus. LibStar (talk) 16:04, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As usual, you merely reiterate your mistaken apparent belief that there are rules on Wikipedia that must be obeyed at all costs, despite IAR, a policy I might add, clearly stating there are not. As to ambassadors, I still maintain my belief that they are all inherently notable and will continue to do so. Why don't you just accept that our opinions differ on this and move on? -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:35, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why don't you accept that your opinion of inherent notability is not backed by community consensus? Secondly why do you never make the effort to find sources? As an administrator you very well know it's the best way to get a keep outcome. LibStar (talk) 09:44, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

in fact every time you invoke WP:IAR it really is a WP:ILIKEIT argument. In all my years if Wikipedia, if a person does not have an inherently notable position as defined in a notability guideline then they must satisfy the significant coverage test. WP:IAR can be used if there is consensus, not the opinion of one person that consistent gets disproven in AfDs. LibStar (talk) 10:57, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's a "this is my opinion" argument. Something that you, hidebound as you appear to be by non-existent rules and bureaucratic procedures, are clearly unable to accept. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:14, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In fact it is a proven fact that not all ambassadors are inherently notable. So now you believe things that have proven overwhelming community consensus not granting notability. WP:IAR is not intended as a vehicle for one opinion !voters to overturn long running and overwhelming community consensus. LibStar (talk) 12:21, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it's "proven" is it? Really? By whom? There is no "overwhelming community consensus", as you know very well, and even if there were it wouldn't be a "proven fact", since this is Wikipedia not the real world. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:12, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
if ambassadors are inherently notable, none of their articles would be deleted. QED. You're either too lazy or too stubborn to look for sources to establish WP:BIO. LibStar (talk) 14:34, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I believe and know all police inspectors to be inherently notable. Because I believe this, no police inspector article can ever be deleted. They are simply inherently notable. This is fact and I will argue this at every AfD even if no one agrees. I will not bother to get police inspectors included in a notability guideline because WP:IAR gives a free pass to turn anything notable. LibStar (talk) 14:47, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. OK, I'm not even done sourcing the article yet, but it's a pretty clear "keep". Lead in one TV series; has a main role in a second upcoming TV series; co-starring role in a TV movie (which, granted, is low profile, but still) – this all points in the direction of clearing WP:NACTOR. (If Williams got any press for appearing in Failure to Launch, which I have yet to check on, it would completely cinch it.) But I think what definitely puts it over the top is the two Kids Choice Awards nominations, including one just this year.

The result was Snow keep. Overwhelming consensus that topic is notable. A few commenters suggested that the article could at some point be merged with other articles, and the nomination itself was on the basis that the content strongly overlaps other articles. However, merging can be done at any time through a normal merge discussion. The only delete !vote missed the traditional use of "massacre" in US politics, such as Saturday Night Massacre mentioned by Tlhslobus. 50.0.136.56 (talk)

Comment - I would have no objection to a redirect. The above sources seem a little weak for WP:GNG. Both Allmusic and Billboard reviewed just about every album released in the '70's. The Allmusic review consists of one sentence about the album and the Billboard contained 2 sentences. The Stereo Review reference is more of a listing as oppose to a review. The 1979 version of Rolling Stone Record Guide contained listings for every album available at the time of it's printing. These sources seem to indicate the album existed but not that it was notable. A redirect or merge to Cindy Bullens seems more appropriate than a "stand alone" page. CBS527Talk

  • Delete - The article's creator's words pretty much state why the band isn't notable: "They were Malaysian based underground band, and of course they never make it to the international charts and such. The were only recognised by Malaysia citizens who are involved in the underground culture and by a few of Singaporean and that's all. Of course you can't find anything about them in the NYT or Google." Of course using Google hits as a sole source for establishing notability is a bad idea, but my point is that coverage for the band is indeed lacking; in fact, I couldn't seem to find anything about the band online at all, most of what I could find were for completely unrelated bands with the same name. Assuming good faith, given that the band's activities began before the internet became mainstream in Asia, it's possible that offline coverage could exist; indeed, the article cites a number of magazine articles.

The article doesn't provide much detail that Zootopia-related articles do not already currently provide/link to.

An earlier version of this page was nominated for deletion (and later deleted).

The majority of the content referred to is common to Disney films - a graphics novel, 'The Art of ...', and the addition of characters to Disney video games. This is not exclusive to Zootopia.

  • Delete – Looks like a WP:TOOSOON situation to me. I nominated a similar article last year; essentially, having only one or two films does not typically generate coverage that is about the franchise as a whole. Instead, the majority of coverage is specifically centered around specific elements of the franchise – in this case, the majority of available coverage is specifically centered around Zootopia, the first and only film in the franchise. Only when there has been significant discussion in reliable sources about the impact of the whole franchise (see, for example, the franchise article for Star Wars) should there be a standalone article that is about the whole franchise. Otherwise, standalone franchise articles would merely duplicate information that can already be found at (or could be added to) the individual film articles. Accordingly, I would instead recommend adding information about the book and spin-off media somewhere in the Zootopia article. Mz7 (talk) 22:25, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Just his work with the World Petroleum Forum alone is probably enough to make him notable. I would like to see more information on him, but the sources above clearly show he is notable. I am hoping people who know Russian can paraphrase them into English so we can get a better sense of who this person is. I have come to realize that people in the hard sciences are very often notable when thought not to be. Remember people can pass other plancks of academic notability besides 1. Being a notable academic is possible by any planck, not meeting planck one does not mean the person is not a notable academic.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:32, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This article currently appears to present an example of WP:BIAS. Maybe this is only an appearance of bias and is unintentional, but there are specific racial or nationality descriptions of alleged perpetrators and victims listed in an inconsistent way. One of the instances states nationality, others do not. It also describes the alleged perpetrators as "refugees," yet none of the sources in the wikilinked article 2017 Uppsala rape Facebook live streaming incident use that term – this is WP:OR and lacks verification WP:V. One specifically states a person is "white" and others are "African American", whereas in other examples there are no comparable adjectives. This does not seem to represent WP:NPOV. This article names living people, so a higher standard is required per WP:LIVE. As currently written, this article is in contravention of WP policy. Jack N.

Delete. This is a small network of low-power tourist information radio stations, which is a class of radio station that is not entitled to an automatic presumption of notability per WP:NMEDIA -- the problem here being that these stations are now exempt from having to have a CRTC license at all, and thus do not pass NMEDIA's licensing condition. (For example, it's impossible for us to verify whether an exempt station is still in operation or not, because without a license they don't need to return to the CRTC for renewals or revocations, so there are no new "decisions" for the CRTC to publish.) None of the stations are the subject of any reliable source coverage to satisfy WP:GNG, and they were redirected to the main article about the parent company accordingly -- however, earlier today an anonymous IP reverted them all back to standalone articles again despite the lack of any valid or policy-compliant reason for doing so. I'd restore them all back to redirects again, but in reality the parent company fails WP:CORP as well -- literally the only sourcing present in its article is the same pre-exemption CRTC decisions that are sourcing the radio stations, with no evidence of the media coverage that's actually required. So, in reality, there's simply no legitimate basis for keeping the parent company or redirecting the stations back to it again -- they're all just plain deletes.

  • I'm not involved in these articles, but I got a notification based on creating a redirect a long time ago. That said, from a brief glance, it looks like the deletion rationale here is contrary to WP:NTEMP. If they received CRTC approval in the past (and if this is considered to have been sufficient for them to have passed WP:NMEDIA at that time), why is it important that the renewals are no longer required? Ongoing coverage is not necessary, after all. Dekimasuよ! 17:52, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, being CRTC-licensed is not, in and of itself, a guaranteed permanent "keep forever" for a radio station regardless of its sourceability or lack thereof. The CRTC license documents can provide support for a temporary presumption of notability — but the station still fails the notability test in the end if real reliable sources besides the license documents themselves can never be provided. They provide temporary assistance in building an article early on — but they are not enough sourcing in and of themselves to get an article kept forever if no better sources can ever be located. And secondly, the reason it's important that the renewals are no longer required is that without those documents, it is no longer possible for us to properly verify things like whether the station is actually still operating or not, if it has ceased operation then when or why, and on and so forth. Before WP:WPRS started cracking down on these, we had articles that had spent ten years saying "It is unknown if the station is still in operation", because their license exemptions had been granted as early as 2003 — but the issue being that their operational status was not just unknown, but entirely unknowable, and that's why exempt-class stations can't be kept.

Reason Delete. The subject does not meet a single one of the requirements for WP:NOTABLE. ((See also e.g. WP:INVALIDBIO - relationships with well-known persons do not confer notability - and this relationship is not even suitably evidenced). Rabatsch is alleged by one unreliable contemporary self-publicist(August Kubizek) to have once been briefly the object of Adolf Hitler's affections. It is conceded that Hitler never spoke a word to her and that she was completely unaware of any such intentions on his part. No source documentation exists about this supposed relationship apart from Kubizek's discredited memoirs, which were written long after the supposed event. Nothing else is known about her and she undertook no actions which were WP:NOTABLE. Nothing which she did altered the course of the world, human consciousness or knowledge one iota. The article could be deleted altogether or, at best, replaced by a redirect to August Kubizek. I am astounded that this article has been promoted to a GA; whilst it might possibly meet GA standards (and I personally would contest that) it is absurd that no editor considered its notability at the time.Smerus (talk) 06:51, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I agree wholeheartedly with the nomination. A search for reliable sources hasn't turned anything up. Also - a "Good Article" that doesn't include a crucial detail like the date or place of death? That's very surprising - I recently rated an article as a C Class based on the omission of that type of detail. Exemplo347 (talk) 10:40, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Hamann seems like a good source to me establishing the importance of Rabatsch in Hitler's youth [14] and the rest of the sources seem acceptable enough. Smmurphy(Talk) 15:57, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To expand, Roland's Nazi Women discusses her in depth from page 14 to 17, and you can read most of it on google books, albeit without page numbers and with the different last name (and mentioning Isak as another possible last name, by the way). The different names probably should be discussed in the article, but isn't a reason to discard the source. Haman and Roland are both heavily based on Kubizek, and there are at least a dozen books on google books which mention here, all basically based on Kubizek, for what it is worth. Smmurphy(Talk) 05:37, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Per INVALIDBIO. The sources we have well-establish Hitler had a crush on this girl and she didn't even know his name but the sources aren't about her, at all. WP:BASIC states that "Primary sources may be used to support content in an article, but they do not contribute toward proving the notability of a subject." so that eliminates the Kubizek book. The Daily Mail piece shamefully recounts Kubizek's book; there's no analysis or fact-checking in evidence. Hitler is the subject of almost every sentence that mentions her in the Haman book. Nazi Women says her last name was Jansten and the article doesn't even mention this inconsistency. Like Exemplo347, I've had not one but two GA noms of mine refused (Rudy Boesch and Ernie Brace) because of a lack of detail and I had way more information about my subjects than this article shows. @Calvin999: You performed the GA review.

Calvin99 (or any other editor) 'deeming it notable' is irrelevant - it's just WP:OPINION. Please justify this article against the clear criteria for notability. If you can't, then out it goes.--Smerus (talk) 19:45, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To be clear, I !voted keep because it is my opinion that the article does meet the notability guidelines and I tried to explain why. My understanding is that we are seeking a consensus of opinions about whether or not the subject is suitable for an article, so I'm not sure what is the problem about giving an opinion. Smmurphy(Talk) 21:00, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Smmurphy: No, we're not looking for mere opinions. Per WP:AFDEQ, "Justification and evidence for a response carries far more weight than the response itself". Rationales that are policy-based are what's needed. You can voice an opinion but it might not go far. @Calvin999: My comments are above. WP:GACR requires that the coverage "addresses the main aspects of the topic". The article is arguably focused solely on Hitler's infatuation with her which is why we're now questioning notability. This article doesn't even state when the subject died (if she's dead, which she probably is). This was your job as a GA reviewer. Chris Troutman (talk) 21:37, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Concensus is about opinions, though, no? Smmurphy(Talk) 22:06, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You can say "out it goes" when there is a consensus for it to go, Smerus, which there isn't. And I know what is involved in reviewing, Chris troutman, I done enough of them. If you feel it doesn't meet it, then that's your entitlement. Aside from that, there is no need to adopt a passive-aggressive, personal tone. It is not very mature.  — Calvin999 23:03, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) What I mean to say is, !voting "I like it" or "I don't like it" isn't valid. If your opinion is "I think this passes GNG" or "I think this fails GNG" then that's fine. The issue becomes when an editor says that a subject is or is not notable without pointing to specific policies or guidelines. I would say an opinion is absent a basis in our guidelines. If you can point to some guidance (even an essay) then you have a rationale, not just an opinion. Whether or not a subject passes GNG should be more of an objective fact than an opinion although editors can disagree with interpretation. I hope that makes sense. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:09, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Calvin999, you repeatedly bring this back to what you have done, your experience, etc. That is not acceptable. There are rules about notability; I didn't make them and neither did you. But I accept them, and apparently you don't. Whatever your experience and opinions, they cannot trump the clear guidelines for notability. You have yet to demonstrate that the article does meet those guidelines, and your silence on this aspect (whilst at the same time insisting on your own capacity to judge in this matter) in fact speaks volumes.Smerus (talk) 04:51, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to August Kubizek, where his memoir already redirects. I am proposing this on the understanding that no other significant sources about Hitler's alleged infatuation with Rabatsch/Isak exist. Because the story certainly has had legs, repeatedly picked up in other books and in periodicals since Kubized published it, making it hard to delete. It is the kind of factoid that users expect to find on Wikipedia. And she seems at least to have moved at one time in intersecting circles with those of Hitler's Austrian youth. However, given the paucity of evidence of a relationship beyond mere acquaintance, and the probability that Kubizek misremembered, distorted, or exaggerated events under whatever pressures/incentives affected a youthful acquaintence of Hitler's when writing a post-War memoir more than 4 decades after the events he describes, it may be better to confine this withing the article in the section on the memoir than have it as an article.E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:26, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
A good argument for redirect, which I can accept.--Smerus (talk) 04:55, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - my feeling is that the importance of Rabatsch was not based on the real person, but on Hitler's ideal of her. In fact, many sources do not give a last name, only calling her Stefanie. However, "Stefanie" has, in my opinion, been the subject of many in depth analyses. I've added a short section to the article discussing these analyses based on Zalampas' discussion of the research, citing, in addition to Zalampas, Werner Maser, Robert G. L. Waite, Bradley F. Smith, and Franz Jetzinger, all very notable Hitler biographers (note, I did not find Smith's work, and only cite it as being cited by Zalampas [based on say where you got it]).[15] Smmurphy(Talk) 18:18, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If the only importance of this supposed relationship (and we have no evidence that there was any such relationship from either of those involved in it, only the allegations of Kubizek) was 'Hitler's ideal of Stefanie', then she does not deserve an article in her own right. Zalampas's self-published book is scarcely a reliable source or opinion - she simply mashes up the comments of others in the context of Adlerian psychoanalysis. (See the review of her book here - which by the way also comments on the book's numerous spelling mistakes and "glaring factual errors", some of which are listed there). I don't feel this book can be regarded as a respectable source. I would like to see some evidence that the other authors named have given any 'in depth analysis' of this supposed relationship - as far as I can see they just mention Kubizek's story in passing.--Smerus (talk) 12:21, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know what you mean by "deserve an article", inclusion isn't based on good behavior. I'm also not convinced that the book was self-published, it was published by Bowling Green University Popular Press, now owned by the University of Wisconsin Press, I think. My guess (based on the Acknowledgements) is the book is based on a PhD thesis written under the supervision of Jay Kloner at the University of Louisville, so I wouldn't consider it a terrible source in spite of a negative review. If the question is whether or not Maser[16], Waite[17], Smith[18], Jetzinger[19][20], Trevor-Roper, and Kershaw[21] give the subject significant coverage, I think they do and invite you to look at those sources. I also want to suggest that the discussion of the analysis of Rabatsch may be appropriate for the article, Psychopathography of Adolf Hitler, and if the consensus were that she is not notable, that this article might be redirected to that one. Smmurphy(Talk) 17:02, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for listing these 'sources', but the snippets that I find from Google books all suggest that the writers believe Kubizek was untruthful and that the relationship with 'Stefanie' may have been a complete fantasy. I think your suggestion of a redirect to Psychopathography of Adolf Hitler, and an additional section about 'Stefanie' there, is very constructive and I would support it if you wish to propose it formally.--Smerus (talk) 10:54, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As you can read in the text about historian's perspectives of Rabatsch in the article and in the sources themselves, the sources do not all believe her to be a complete fantasy. Some believe that she may have been overemphasized, while others think Kubizek's writing is more truthful. One or two take a middle road, that Kubizek could have been making something out of very little, but that the episode is illustrative of the types of influences Hitler had during that period. There is nothing wrong with an article about which there is only one or few primary sources (analyses do look at more than just Kubizek, after all), given that there are multiple secondary or tertiary sources, so I don't see why it matters that Kubizek is the main primary source and that he is unreliable. Prominent historians find her story deserves in depth analysis, so per GNG, she seems to me a suitable subject for inclusion. Smmurphy(Talk) 17:48, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have access to all these sources save via Google books which only gives snippets. These snippets however do not give me the impression that these sources deal 'in depth' with 'Stefanie'. It looks to me like thwey deal with her just in passing in a sentence. Can you please give indication of whether they actually do treat the topic 'in depth' - a paragraph - a chapter - or what? If the consensus is that Kubizek's narrative - whether truthful or invented - is indicative of something in Hitler's psyche, then in fact this indicates that your proposal to make the article a link to Psychopathography of Adolf Hitler is the correct path. The fact remains that we know almost nothing about the subject of this article - only that she (perhaps) gave rise to a disturbance in Hitler's mentality. 'Stefanie' thus continues to fail the WP guidelines for notability.--Smerus (talk) 06:47, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Working from memory and the google books links: Maser's mention is only a few sentences across a couple paragraphs; Stefanie is one of the themes of Waite's book, 178-180 is a subsection titled "Stefanie: The Unapproachable Love", and Stefanie is a repeated theme in that entire chapter, "The Child as Father to the Man"; Smith cites Jetzigner in a brief rejection of Stefanie in footnotes, but he does point out that Reinhold Hanisch is a second primary source about Stefanie after Kubizek (I have not seen what Hanisch wrote/said); The four pages from Jetzinger I cite are a solid section of a chapter about Stefanie; Kershaw, who was in the article already and which I didn't add, gives Stefanie a couple sentences across a couple paragraphs; Trevor-Roper is writing, I think, in an introduction to the Kubizek book, and I don't know what it says; Zalampas' discussion is largely in footnotes, but includes, I think, two paragraphs in the text; Hamann, who is more biographical and less psycho-analytical, gives Stefanie about three pages across two areas; Donald writes in a book not about Hitler in particular, "The first to find herself the focus of Hitler's attentions was Stephanie Rabatsch of Linz in 1905 (Hitler was then 17) and she is significant only in that Hitler wrongly thought her Jewish, yet did not see this as a problem". Hamann, Zalampas, Jetzinger, and especially Waite give Stefanie more than passing coverage. Smmurphy(Talk) 15:46, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Material about Rabatsch is founded on a memoir published post-WWII by a one-time Hitler cronie; which is why I continue to think that a redirect to August Kubizek is the best way to present this material. A redirect will set the entire fabric of tenuous conjecture - and Note that all material regarding a Hitler-Rabatsch relationship is based on speculation that surfaced after Hitler's death - within an intelligible context. A redirect also helps minimize the inevitably ongoing problems with misleading users with a lede that now reads" "Hitler fell in love with her after she passed by him during her daily daughter-mother stroll in Linz, glancing at him." .E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:04, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It feels to me that you aren't addressing the GNG claim and are understating the amount of primary sources the secondary sources use. First, Hamann, Zalampas, Jetzinger, and Waite give her, I feel, in depth coverage. And second, Kubizek and Smith cite Hanisch and Hamann and Jetzinger cite an interview with Rabatch by Georg Stefan Troller and Axel Corti for their 1973 documentary Ein junger Mann aus dem Innviertel. Smmurphy(Talk) 18:42, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You cannot claim "in-depth coverage" when you don't even know when she died. This article isn't about Stefanie, the person. What we have is an article about Hitler's infatuation with a girl named Stefanie. That's what was written. I stand by my claim of INVALIDBIO. Let whomever wants to keep this argue to WP:USERFY and they can rewrite this to focus on Hitler's fascination with this girl, because that's what the sources discuss. (I don't think the crush he had is notable, anyway.) Chris Troutman (talk) 18:55, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I do see some value in retaining a short section and the search term, because Wikipedia has a noble role enabling users to check out alternative facts that circulate out there.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:11, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Smmurphy: The quality of the sources you cite so assiduously continues to cast doubt on the viability of this article. All of these authors are simply speculating on the (alternative-)facts set out by the dubious Kubizek. This is exemplified in the ludicrous quote you give from your source Donald: "The first to find herself the focus of Hitler's attentions was Stephanie Rabatsch of Linz in 1905 (Hitler was then 17) and she is significant only in that Hitler wrongly thought her Jewish, yet did not see this as a problem". There is not a shred of evidence outside Kubizek that Hitler ever knew of Rabatsch, let alone that he thought she was Jewish. This is a nonsense story which does not deserve an article; any mention on WP can only be justified, as E.M.Gregory says, to assist in identification of fantasies and alternative facts.--Smerus (talk) 07:20, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I agree completely with this comment by User:Smerus. How do we draw the eyes of highly experienced editors here so that we can resolve this?E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:54, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that much of the story of her life as Kubizek told is probably not very true. In fact, I expanded the "Scholarly reactions" section", which now better reflects that. I also agree that Rabatsch was not Jewish. I do not know what Hitler thought about the matter. I think if kept, the article should be more careful in wording to make it clear that most of what it says is based on Kubizek and may be unreliable. To me, these issues seem to be about content and not about notability, and I agree that the content could be improved in those ways and others.
All that said, I think she passes the bar in terms of coverage by secondary sources for GNG. From your wording, I think you propose that because her story was largely fabricated, her case is slightly different. I think WP:FRINGE (and WP:NFICT) is a great guideline to bring up for this article, both in terms of content and notability. I hadn't thought about notability from the perspective of fringe, and agree that from that perspective the case isn't as great. In particular, NFRINGE says, "References that are employed because of the notability of a related subject – such as the creator of a theory – should be given far less weight when deciding on notability." The rest of NFRINGE seems to suggest this case is fine. That sentence could be read to agree with the perspective that, since most secondary source references to Rabatsch are primarily in the context of a discussion of Kubizek, a redirect to Kubizek makes sense. Also, since many of the references to Rabatsch are really about Hitler's psyche, mention of that could go to Psychopathography of Adolf Hitler, and the two articles should link to each other in their discussion of Rabatsch.
With all this in mind, I think that if made a redirect, the redirect should point to Kubizek, but some of the analysis material could go to the psychopathography article, should the editors of that article deem it useful. My !vote and first preference is still keep, for the GNG reasons I have already brought and because I think the coverage (barely) satisfies NFRINGE because there are multiple primary sources and the secondary sources discuss multiple aspects of the story. Smmurphy(Talk) 15:13, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. If Kubizek is unreliable that should be spelled out (with citations) early in the article. Statements based on his book should be then prefaced by the disclaimer "According to Kubizek ..." so it is clear that much of the article consists of alternative facts. But major sources – the Daily Mail, Der Spiegel, ZDF – have repeated Kubizek's tale of unrequited love. It has thus become a notable meme. Sufficient independent sources have commented on the subject to establish notability. Aymatth2 (talk) 02:11, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I still think it should be deleted, but in the meantime i have edited it on the lines you suggest.--Smerus (talk) 06:38, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have expanded the section on "Significance of the story" to itemize the various writers who have discussed the story and to name their books. It would help to also cite some source that says Kubizek is unreliable, and that no serious historian cites him, not just make an unsourced assertion to that effect. Aymatth2 (talk) 14:10, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To recap, the subject is notable only for the young Adolf Hitler's alleged infatuation with her, and the only source for that infatuation is his boyhood companion August Kubizek. However, given Hitler's huge historical impact almost any detail of his life is significant. Many writers on Hitler have chosen to accept Kubizek's account and to discuss the unrequited love in their works. No evidence has been given that Kubizek is an unreliable source, but even if he were that would not affect the notability of the story. Readers of any of the many books that discuss Stefanie Rabatsch may want to find out more about her. This article serves that purpose. Aymatth2 (talk) 16:25, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • This comment shows the problem with keeping this article. We have no evidence that Hitler "loved" the the subject of this article. We have speculation recorded many years later. Mere speculation, and the speculation is by a Hitler acquaintance who would have had motivation to exaggerate the facts, even if memoirs could be relied upon for facts. I still support a redirect because keeping gives the appearance that this is a story supported by evidence. It is not.E.M.Gregory (talk) 22:48, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • August Kubizek was more than an acquaintance. Hitler and Kubizek were close friends. They even shared a flat together in Vienna. Yes, like all memoirs, it should be handled with care. But Kubizek seems to be a generally trustworthy if rather naïve source.--Davidcpearce (talk) 23:41, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • @E.M.Gregory: Many reputable historians have discussed the subject in depth. Kubizek is a primary source, a player in the drama, and the historians are secondary sources. Most accept Kubizek's account, but some downplay or dismiss it. The article tries to give a balanced view. The question here is not whether the story is true but whether it is notable. True or false, the story effortlessly meets the Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline. The title is the natural search term for someone who reads about the subject in one of the many books that discuss her and wants to find out more. Aymatth2 (talk) 01:30, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect as mentioned above, as while "Anyone he loved" is not quite a convincing sign in how we base articles, there's enough information to suggest significance in information here, but there's still not the convincing for an independent article; nominator has also concurred with redirecting. SwisterTwister talk 05:24, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
A "merge" outcome may be considered if an article is very short or duplicates information in another article. That does not apply here. The question is whether the subject has been addressed directly and in detail by a number of independent sources. The section on Scholarly reactions demonstrates that it has. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:21, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Another problem with a merge is that Franz Jetzinger's 3,444 character article would be overwhelmed by the 9,166 characters of text about Stefanie Rabatsch, much of which has absolutely nothing to do with Jetzinger. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:00, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Looks OK to me now.♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:08, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Plenty of reliable sources with sufficient coverage to meet the notability guidelines. It is irrelevant what actions an article's subject takes or fails to take or how many iotas of difference we can detect. WP:INVALIDBIO does not apply because significant coverage is to be found on Rabatsch herself. No one is arguing that coverage about Hitler suffices. The redirect/merge target suggested would be inappropriate. Thincat (talk) 09:18, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to point out that the article contains the sentence: "Little is known about Stefanie's overall life" and it's cited.

This seems to have been a "nine days wonder" that got a lot of mentions in the press right before the inauguration and then turned out not to be such a big deal after all. Pictures circulating on the internet a few weeks ago of thousands of bikers rallying on their way to Washington were actually pictures of other events from years past, some not even in the United States. There was bragging of 20,000 of them showing up but it seems only a small fraction of that number actually showed. I am not seeing any reporting on them since the inauguration, their importance seems to have been grossly exaggerated in the week before the inauguration. What coverage there is is pretty trivial and does not show real notability. Beeblebrox (talk) 03:19, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Beeblebrox's WP:SUSTAINED argument is a good one, but I think it's a bit premature. It's been less than 2 weeks since the inauguration. It will be interesting to see if Bikers for Trump sticks around and receives further coverage from the media down the road. I'd leave the notability tag on the article and revisit the issue in oh, I don't know, a year's time. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 17:28, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is a semi-official group of bikers who support Trump and does not appear to be a chartered organization or one which will endure for the long term. Serious questions also about notability. If not delete, then definitely merge with a broader articles about unofficial trump support groups. -O.R.Comms 20:15, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No, the argument is that the article clearly satisfies our general notability guideline, but that it's too early to tell whether that notability will be sustained. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 04:48, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or merge I created the article because it seemed notable that a large group - of the sort of people famous for violent misbehavior themselves (bikers) - would offer to counter illegal violence at a political protest. If the group itself is not notable, then perhaps we could merge the information about the planned, er, "defensive wall" (of meat) into whatever article Wikipedia might have about violent clashes between Trump supporters and Trump opponents (such as Inauguration_of_Donald_Trump#Protests_and_demonstrations. --Uncle Ed (talk) 17:59, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I do think they deliberately played up the charged word "bikers" which conjures up imagery of scary looking leather-clad bearded men on their choppers, ready to stomp some hippies. That's why they got all those press mentions before they actually showed up, but the reality turned out to be a lot of pudgy middle aged guys on touring bikes.. We actually had something similar happen right her in my town several years ago when it was chosen as the end point of a cross-country motorcycle rally. Everyone was talking about the "biker invasion" but when they started showing up, it was a lot of semi-retired suburban dudes who had the time and money to take a few weeks off and ride from Florida to Alaska, and now that they had done it they were very tired, for they did not smoke the meth all day and night after all.

  • Keep-Sint Maarten is a member of a FIFA confederation and subconfederation, CONCACAF and the CFU. Matches in 2017 Caribbean Cup qualification were against FIFA members in a FIFA-sanctioned tournament which served as qualification for another. If players from associations that are confederation members but not FIFA members are not considered notable, there will be multiple nations in multiple confederations who will likely never have a player that qualifies as notable. Doing so would blatantly disadvantage certain small footballing nations.--Gri3720 (talk) 01:53, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - WP:NFOOTBALL explicitly says that in order for an international match to meet the criteria laid out in the guideline it must be a tier 1 match (i.e. a match between the senior teams of two FIFA members). This is not the case here, nor does Knol meet any of the other criteria of WP:NSPORT or WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 14:53, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - meets new notability guidelines. GiantSnowman 20:18, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. I am sympathetic to Gri3720, I personally feel that NFOOTY should be revisited and adjusted to include non-FIFA nations that participate in continental competitions. I am not sure why a player in one match of a given continental competition is deemed inherently notable as a result of playing in that competition, but a player in a different match in the same competition is not. I would like to see an addition to the notability guideline something along the lines of: In addition to players who have participated in Tier 1 international matches, all players who have appeared for the senior team of sovereign nations in a top-level continental competition in which all matches involving two FIFA members are deemed "Tier 1" are also considered notable by reason of having competed at an equal level to FIFA member nations. However, this would need consensus. I would recommend starting a thread a WT:FOOTY to see if there is similar feeling beyond the two of us. Fenix down (talk) 11:41, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you, Fenix down, for understanding and supporting my argument. I was planning on starting a discussion on WT:FOOTY so your encouragement convinced me. Please go to the section and voice your stances. I appreciate that everyone has strictly followed the notability guidelines as they are currently written. That does not however mean that they guidelines are perfect.

  • Strong Keep-Sint Maarten isn't a full fledged FIFA member per say, but they took part in the Caribbean Cup which is a FIFA recognize event and played competitive matches against FIFA member teams.
