Whilst this looks like a sourced article, most of it is from the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and there is in fact very little interaction between these 2 countries. No agreements, state visits, migration or significant trade. The section on cooperation is about European Union-PNG relations not Spain-PNG relations.

List of Recorders of Penang, Singapore and Malacca

List of Recorders of Penang, Singapore and Malacca (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)

There may be a rationale for delimiting this list to cover all and only recorders of Penang, Malacca, and Singapore from 1808 to 1867, but I don't see it. All of these places were part of the Straits Settlements, but there were other colonies in the Straits Settlements. And 1808 doesn't seem to be a significant date in the history of any of these places, unless the position of recorder was inaugurated then (a fact not alluded to in the article). This says that a British colonial court opened in Penang on 31 May 1808, presided over by a recorder, but this says that a unified court for Penang, Malacca, and Singapore didn't exist until 27 November 1826, pursuant to the Second Charter of Justice (an article that now goes on my list to create). All in all, I'm quite confused and think this list fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:NLIST. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 23:51, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a filmmaker, not reliably sourced as passing WP:CREATIVE. The notability claim on offer here is that her work exists, and the referencing is almost entirely to primary sources (her own self-published website about herself, her "staff" profiles on the self-published websites of organizations she's directly affiliated with, etc.) that are not support for notability at all -- out of 11 footnotes, the only one that goes to a real piece of third party coverage in a real WP:GNG-worthy media outlet is paywalled, so it's impossible for me to determine how much it actually says about her for the purposes of helping to contribute GNG points (all I can determine is that her name doesn't appear before the "pay to read" lock at all.) But regardless of whether it says very much about her or not, it still takes a lot more than just one GNG-worthy source to pass GNG. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat (talk) 17:45, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. All this article does is confirm the embassy exists. Embassies are not inherently notable. The text "The Embassy is charged with..." is recycled in various embassy articles. LibStar (talk) 23:49, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't that be more likely to affect the potential to expand Colombia–Venezuela relations rather than this article, though? I rarely see the possibility in expanding articles about an embassy building from a permastub, and this is no exception. Richard3120 (talk) 14:31, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
agree with Richard. LibStar (talk) 22:56, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
While I understand the point and the concerns, I stand by my original position. Only as examples, in 2003 there was a bomb attack in Colombia's consulate in Caracas [es] (as well as Spain's embassy), and in the last years there has been an increasing number of Venezuelan congresspeople and politicians that have sought refuge in the embassies of Latin American countries, specifically Chile, Argentina and Mexico. There might be events that currently slip from my reach, but I hope it illustrate events that are more specific and that shouldn't be included in an article about bilateral relations as a whole. The description of its current image states that the building was built in the 1930s by dictator Juan Vicente Gómez and later given to the Colombian government, and while I only found circular references for this statement, it could be a good start to continue expanding the article. --NoonIcarus (talk) 21:13, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

fails WP:NEVENT/WP:GNG. Though an impressive scoreline, the game has not received anything more than routine coverage and is of no long-term significance. Microwave Anarchist (talk) 22:59, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What do you consider "routine coverage"? A simple google search brings backs hundreds of articles, many from reputable sources across both German and English language publications Bild, Kicker, Sport1, the BBC, Sky Sports, ESPN, and more. The match broke numerous records too, which are highlighted in the article. It has more notability and long-term significance than many articles of this nature that have not been scrutinized, i.e. Manchester United F.C. 8–2 Arsenal F.C. and Nottingham Forest F.C. 1–8 Manchester United F.C.. Rupert1904 (talk) 07:03, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Rupert1904: Your point about the Man Utd articles is immaterial as 'other stuff exists' is a very weak argument; I am making no comment as per whether the Man Utd matches are notable. All of the references provided (bar the two for the postponement) are match reports/routine sports articles that do not demonstrate any real notability, and I can't find any sources that do. Microwave Anarchist (talk) 08:20, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Manchester United F.C. 8–2 Arsenal F.C. and Nottingham Forest F.C. 1–8 Manchester United F.C. were matches between two Premier League teams, not a top division team and some nobodies. And the Forest one did break a record (though I'm still not sure it's notable enough anyway). Joseph2302 (talk) 09:09, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's a huge scoreline and is their second largest margin of victory in the club's professional history. I would say that's noteworthy and I would also say that the other win in 1997, a 16–1 defeat of DJK Waldberg should also have it's own article as well. Again I ask, why are these matches that I mentioned above any more notable? Is it just because they happened in an English speaking country? This match actually had records attached to it. If it's the second highest victory of all time, that's still a record. Rupert1904 (talk) 07:55, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The second biggest victory of all time isn't a record, by definition. In the case of the two matches you linked above, Nottingham Forest F.C. 1–8 Manchester United F.C. set a record for the biggest ever away win in the Premier League, which is a genuine record. Not sure about the other one. -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:13, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's not the biggest ever away win though.Rupert1904 (talk) 09:46, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It was at the time though. It set a new record. -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:48, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
So should the first away win in the Premier League also have it's own article since it set a record at the time? Rupert1904 (talk) 09:50, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Also, was this the second biggest victory of all time in German professional football, or just Bayern's second biggest? As far as I can see we don't have stand-alone articles on other individual clubs' biggest ever wins (unless it set some other sort of record), let alone their second biggest....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:15, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Fails WP:NEVENT and WP:GNG, although wins of 10+ goals are rare that doesn't make them inherently notable. It might be better to include some of the information here at the parent article 2021–22 DFB-Pokal. There may be an argument to recreate the article in future should it become significant in the long term but right now is WP:TOOSOON so I would not be opposed to the article being moved to draft space similar to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Real Madrid 1–2 FC Sheriff Tiraspol. Stevie fae Scotland (talk) 08:18, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete way WP:TOOSOON to be able to assert that this has sustained coverage, highly doubt it will. So doesn't pass WP:GNG. Despite all the current articles about it, I doubt people will remember it in a few weeks time. And it didn't actually break any records. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:07, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's fine if a majority of editors vote that this article doesn't meet the notability criteria but I would just ask that the same scrutiny be brought to the two articles I mentioned above and others. It seems every time Manchester United scores a handful of goals, there is clamor to create an article about it. The Nottingham Forest game is the second biggest away win of all time in the Premier League. If Bayern's second biggest win in their professional history (and the club's biggest away win of all time) is not a record then that's certainly not a record either. The ManU-Arsenal game just had a lot of goals. This match had more goals. So again it's fine if this doesn't pass notability, although I don't agree, but I would just ask that we be more discerning on match articles associated with UK clubs. Rupert1904 (talk) 09:44, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Forest-Man U game was the biggest away win at the time i.e. it actually set a new record. And it was a record for an entire league, not just one club -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:48, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As I said above, that's no more notable than the first ever away win in Premier league history by Norwich City over Arsenal in 1992. That too set a record at the time. Rupert1904 (talk) 09:54, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That other articles exist that do not meet WP:GNG is not a valid reason to keep an article.--dashiellx (talk) 11:50, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not saying to keep it because other articles exist. I am saying that if every editor agrees that this doesn't reach notability standards and thinks we should delete it, then we should. But we should also delete these other articles that I have referenced. I want the same level of scrutiny to be added to every article. Rupert1904 (talk) 12:11, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Then nominate those articles for deletion as well. It's not on this nominator to check for other articles that fail WP:GNG. This discussion is about this article and this article only. --dashiellx (talk) 12:18, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fine. I'll nominate both articles. And I'm not saying it's on any one nominator to do it. I just want the whole community to do a better job of setting a standard for scrutinizing articles that don't meet a notability threshold. Rupert1904 (talk) 13:09, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not pass WP:GNG or Wikipedia:Notability (films). Article violates WP:NFF, WP:NOTNEWS, and WP:CRYSTALBALL, and WP:FFEXCEPTIONS doesn't give this particular film a valid exception. There is no broad or enduring coverage of this 'to-be-made for private subscription release' film. Most of the citations are primary source or based on each other. Merge the content into Daily Wire or Gina Carano until such time as the film becomes notable or, if still in production, when the production becomes notable. Of the six current citations: The two Daily Wire citations are primary source; Movieweb and Yahoo got their info from Deadline; one Deadline article covers the announcement, but doesn't cover the production (which is required per NFF); and the other Deadline article is extra fluff about another actor. So that leaves only ONE citation that is independent and could be said to contribute towards notability. That just isn't enough to pass GNG. Per WP:NFF, "Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines." 'Fired actress bucks SAG union to make film in Montana because she doesn't believe in mandatory Covid vaccines' is neither extraordinary nor notable.

  • Draftify: I saw that this page was up and in a pretty sorry state, so I took some preliminary measures to fix it up at face value. What I propose is that this returns to a draft state, so that Dswitz10734 has the opportunity to fix the article up properly. BOTTO (TC) 16:20, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The problem with Draftifying an article is that someone else will likely resubmit to RfC before the film is released and becomes notable, and some editor will approve it. Then we'll be right back here again. Platonk (talk) 19:15, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That's the inherent take on practically every draftified page. If it is prematurely put in the main space again, it can be reverted. I agree that it's not deserving of being in the main space yet and Dsitz10734 should have been patient and left this page incubating, but there's potential that it will be notable down the line.

@Dswitz10734: The article is veering into the opinion piece territory - especially with new the Gabriel-Kane Day-Lewis section. It just needs to deliver on the facts, without discussing why it could be perceived as ironic or interesting. BOTTO (TC) 20:05, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Botto What changes to do you suggest? Dswitz10734 (talk) 16:42, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Dswitz10734: I would recommend removing that entire Gabriel-Kane Day-Lewis subsection, as it's really just trivia and adds nothing substantive to the article. If anything, Gabriel-Kane's participation is notable because it's his first solid acting role, as the son of Daniel Day-Lewis. Also, that second paragraph in the lead? That would be terrific to put in the Production section down below. Terms like "going against the grain" and "counter to Hollywood standards" should be vetted for being more neutral. The fact that it is non-union is probably the most impartial element of this all. BOTTO (TC) 21:28, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep First, thank you for notifying me for this article's consideration for deletion. Yahoo and Deadline are notable sources. I'm wondering which sources are deemed officially "notable" here on Wikipedia? Because both of these sites are widely recognized. Also, as for the Crystal Ball policy, release dates from a project's studio are all over Wikipedia. If the studio discloses a release date, then usually that makes it onto a project's Wikipedia page- cited, of course. Dswitz10734 (talk) 15:24, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Most important of all, WP:NFF clearly states that unless the production itself (as in the filming stage, see Filmmaking#Production) is notable, then the film shouldn't have a Wikipedia article until it is (a) released, and (b) becomes notable. There has been a news release that filming started very recently. There is nothing notable about the production at this stage.
  • As for Yahoo, the problem isn't that Yahoo is or isn't notable. In this instance their article content comes from two Deadline articles and is just churnalism. If you're going to 'count' how many agencies report on a movie, then it should be mostly independently-generated (aka fresh) reporting, not recycled from some other online source which has already been 'counted'.
  • Just because the people who are making this movie run their own media 'empire' and know how to push information out through their cohort channels, doesn't making the idea of this movie notable. Notable means of interest to multiple independent sources. At this stage, we have one independent source, Deadline. But even if we had multiple independent sources, that wouldn't override the parameters of NFF.
  • It doesn't matter that there are other "upcoming" films "all over Wikipedia". They may have notable production stages, or maybe they are also in violation of NFF and need to be removed until those films are released and become notable. There is no need to suggest we break a Wikipedia guideline because others have done so.
  • Perhaps you should read Wikipedia:Planned films#NFF exceptions. Platonk (talk) 16:15, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete based on a first reading of the article. An article should speak for itself as to why it is notable, and this article does not indicate significant coverage of the production. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:13, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • It’s good enough for a future film to have a reliable source stating that principle photography has commenced, the point of this being that the base standard of the WP:GNG is temporarily lessened. In this case, that article does not include such a reliable source, the youtube source is not good enough, not a reliable source. If no such source appears, then draftify. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:14, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@SmokeyJoe Here's one, from the distributing studio: www.dailywire.com/news/daily-wire-releases-details-on-new-gina-carano-project-terror-on-the-prairie — Preceding unsigned comment added by ‎ Dswitz10734 (talkcontribs) 9:34, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
WP:RSP lists The Daily Wire as an unreliable source. Can you do better? —SmokeyJoe (talk) 20:10, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@SmokeyJoe Maybe this one? Deadline is listed as reliable (WP:RSPDEADLINE). deadline.com/2021/10/gina-carano-mandalorian-daily-wire-western-terror-on-prairie-mma-cowboy-cerrone-1234854785/ Dswitz10734 (talk) 20:33, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that’s a good source for commencement of filming. Put that source in, and get the YouTube source out. Strip back anything not coming for a reliable independent source.
  • Keep. There is coverage in reliable sources (apparently it’s an “under-the-radar western”), and principle photography has commenced, so it is good for mainspace. It qualifies at least for WP:STUB. SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:55, 20 October 2021 (UTC) changed to “merge and redirect”, below. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:23, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    User:4meter4, have you noted the contention in different readings of NFF?
    But more specifically, what fact/sentence whatever on the page fails WP:CRYSTAL. I don’t think anything does. Everything is sourced and reported in past tense, including the line “ The Daily Wire's Jeremy Boreing announced that the film would premiere in spring 2022.” This announcement is NOT NOTCRYSTALBALL. SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:39, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I edited the article; details on its talk page. The result, with regards to notability or not, is that there are only two articles which could count towards notability: The Deadline article and the Newsweek article, just three days apart. The two Daily Wire citations don't count towards notability as they are primary sources, and the second Deadline article (about Gabriel) is just a brief announcement about him; an addendum to the other article just three days before. Platonk (talk) 06:38, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Robert and Platonk. Fails GNG if it is for subscription members only and the sourcing is inadequate – the Daily Wire is unreliable. No Great Shaker (talk) 11:57, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The “first” release promised to subscribers is unimportant and cut. DailyWire sourcing cut, including material sourced from it, except for naming three of the cast which is uncontenious. Passing NFF is established by the RS Deadline WP:RSPDEADLINE. SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:39, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@SmokeyJoe: By your edit removing the information that the film will be released for Daily Wire subscribers only (which is mentioned in every source), then you leave the Wikipedia reader with the impression that this film will be placed in movie theaters. I have read no such plan in any of the many citations for this article that I've read in the last two weeks. I have, however seen: The plan is to first release the film exclusively to DailyWire.com members in spring 2022. The Hurt Locker outfit Voltage Pictures is handling international sales, (Deadline); and The movie is set to release first exclusively through streaming to DailyWire.com members in spring 2022 with international sales going through distributor Voltage Pictures. (Newsweek). Those two statements (which were based on interviews with Carano and Borering), lead me to believe it will go from subscriber-streaming to DVD sales. Do you have a source that says it will go to general release to theaters (not a citation for the article, just one to settle this ambiguity)? Platonk (talk) 23:55, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
User:Platonk, note the word “first”. To me it implies a wider release to follow, and a few days later would be my guess. If you are right, if this is a straight to subscribers and that’s it, only, release, then that changes the picture for me. Yes, I assumed it was intended to go to general release in theatres. I do not believe that the permissive reading of NFF was intended for straight to VHS release, indeed I am sure it was not. I had not thought to seek verification that general release to theatres was intended. SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:29, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The last film Daily Wire released/distributed was also a subscriber-only film, Run Hide Fight, which earned a paltry $20K in revenue (international). Platonk (talk) 04:39, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Does Voltage Pictures release to theatres? SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:29, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, they do. So if they're only contracted for 'international sales', then I don't see Daily Wire as planning a release to domestic/USA cinemas. Platonk (talk) 04:39, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Renominating this non-notable motorsports pit reporter after the last AfD was closed with no prejudice as to speedy renom. There is no WP:SIGCOV in any reliable/independent sources, as pointed out in this source assessment table made by User:Beccaynr in the last AfD below:

Source assessment table:
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
NASCAR Pit Reporter Kelli Stavast Shares Sunset Proposal Story, “Timeless” Ring Details (The Knot, 2016) ~ Based primarily on statements of the subject, WP:SECONDARY context introduces the subject and commentary is limited to anticipation of the wedding. No Terms of use includes "THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED FOR ENTERTAINMENT, EDUCATIONAL, AND PROMOTIONAL PURPOSES ONLY." This is not a journalistic or academic source. ~ Based primarily on statements of the subject, WP:SECONDARY context introduces the subject and commentary is limited to anticipation of the wedding. No
Marty Snider, Kelli Stavast added to NBC's NASCAR on-air team (NBCSports, 2014) No This is a press release from the employer of the subject Yes ~ 2 sentences about her past career in addition to the announcement. No
The Life of a Racing Pit Reporter: Kelli Stavast (Frontstretch, 2019) Yes A mix of interview and WP:SECONDARY context Yes About Us section of the website indicates a news structure exists. ~ A mix of interview and WP:SECONDARY context, with commentary that appears related to pit reporting generally, not the subject. ~ Partial
Kelli Stavast ’02 Takes on Olympic Assignment for NBC (Chapman University, 2018) No Alumni magazine interview with alumni Yes ~ Mostly based on quotes from the subject. No
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{source assess table}}.

As will likely be pointed out, this subject was in the news recently in regards to a recent forced "meme"; none of the sources covering that meme describe this subject in any detail; they at best pull information from the sources that already exist. As User:Beccaynr also said in the last AfD,"Wikipedia is not a newspaper and not a tabloid, particularly for a WP:MINORASPECT of a subject's career." Fails WP:JOURNALIST and WP:GNG.

"The speedwaydigest.com source is labeled "NBC Sports PR" and appears to be a press release. Heavy.com recycles the Frontstretch source already in the Wikipedia article, adds a non-independent link and information from her employer, her Instagram, various references to past "Fuck Joe Biden" chants, and a link and information from her alumni magazine - this is churnalism, and the reliance on the same and similar sources that do not sufficiently support WP:BASIC as outlined above, similarly does not add further support for notability." - This was a reply to your !vote on the last AfD that I feel is worth bringing up.

The Visitor Agreement specifically disclaims accuracy, e.g. "We do not endorse or guarantee the accuracy of any posting or Materials, regardless of whether they come from a user, a celebrity or ?expert? guest, or from a member of our staff", so this does not appear to be a reliable source that can contribute to notability per Wikipedia guidelines.

  • Keep Per last rationale I had, that this is an average sports journalist's article with proper sourcing, outside the controversy I asked for protection on that she was merely parallel to and meant only to stop bringing attention from a crowd. As the discussion was quickly derailed away from the subject and towards other things not having to do with her, I ask that the focus of that AfD remain solely on the subject in this discussion, not anything else (and won't respond to those outside concerns; please don't ping me about them, as they'll be ignored).

Comment There do not appear to be reliable sources about what her intent was - as discussed in the previous AfD, based on my review of sources, it appears that her intent in the recent event is a matter of gossip/speculation, and tends to be reported in a way that disparages her, and therefore does not appear suitable for inclusion per WP:BLP policy and similarly does not support her notability.

Comment That much I agree with, the sources for the event are lousy and on par for writers who don't actually follow the sport and only watched the clip after the fact (and in fact I put the blame more on a BTS director who didn't cut away or blank out the audio right away, leaving her in the wind). But going by the standards of how we measure the articles of sports journalists, she slides by on a weak keep per my past experience if that incident never happened. But I will admit my bias in my subject area (media/television) is a bit heavy towards inclusionism. Nate (chatter) 04:39, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    1. I'm seeing a bunch of references to Business and Commercial Aviation in 4meter4's sources. Is this a trade magazine?
    2. The Weekly of Business Aviation is a paywalled source. Is this a trade magazine?
    3. Is Aviation week & space technology a trade magazine?
    4. Is Marketing Weekly News a trade magazine?
    5. Is The Weekly of Business Aviation a trade magazine?
    6. With the exception of Marketing Weekly News, all of the sources listed by 4meter4 appear to be published by Aviation Week Network. Our article for the network describes it a a New-York based B2B publishing and event production company. Are the publications that it runs editorially independent from each other in a meaningful way, so as to actually constitute them being multiple sources for purposes of notability?
My initial reading is that they're all trade magazines, and that the Aviation Week Network has significant editorial overlap. However, I would like to make sure before commenting further. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 22:06, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Aviation Week & Space Technology is a perfectly good RS, and while Business and Commercial Aviation is a spin-off from Aviation Week, it is also a perfectly good RS. Coverage of the company appears to be ongoing over several years, but it isn't clear whether these articles - which appear to be news-type articles provide sufficient significant coverage to pass GNG.Nigel Ish (talk) 10:57, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I've been able to check most (but not all) of the references listed above. I couldn't find the 2nd the 3rd references (both from Business and Commercial Aviation) listed by 4meter4 above but I've found the rest. Worldbruce above says the references he listed are all "in-depth, independent, reliable sources" but I suspect by "independent" it only covers "corporate" independence. WP:ORGIND also required "Independent Content" which means company announcements and PR don't meet the criteria and those references all regurgitate company announcements. Everything I could check was entirely based on a company announcement or was a mention-in-passing with no in-depth information. The pdf posted by SpinningSpark, in my opinion, is the best of the lot but it appears that all of the in-depth information was provided by Guerra, it isn't clear that there's any Independent Content but even if this gets the benefit of the doubt, nothing else comes close. For those saying that there's plenty of sources to meet NCORP - finding sources that meet our criteria for inclusion does not rely on volume. There's just not multiple source that meet the criteria for establishing notability. HighKing++ 11:20, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: The nominator is a sockpuppet who was evading a block when he made this nomination. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:52, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. HighKing says he "suspects" the sources provided by WorldBruce lack "corporate independence" without actually having read the sources. That's a failure of AGF. Accessing US news sources from here is a complete nightmare because most US sites don't comply with European Union data protection law and refuse to serve the page for legal reasons. So I've only managed to check one by massaging TOR – that's the Independent article on KaiserAir at Livermore Municipal Airport. About half the article seems to be sourced from the Livermore Public Works Director (Lanphier is extensively quoted) and the other half is sourced to opponents of the KaiserAir extension. Only one paragraph covers what KaiserAir themselves say they are going to do. Clearly not a recycled press release, but a well balanced, in-depth article covering all points of view. SpinningSpark 13:03, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sometimes you'll get the articles on the wayback machine. The Independent article talks extensively about the application but *all* of the in-depth information about the company (see WP:CORPDEPTH) is sourced from the proposal submitted by the company - the paragraph starts with "In its proposal, KaiserAir, ....". Not a recycled press release, but from the point of view of the in-depth information, a recycled proposal. HighKing++ 19:02, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • Yes, so it's an in-depth discussion about the application of the company to expand operations at this airport. To me, that counts towards notability. It's not enough by itself, but that is not all we have available. SpinningSpark 23:50, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • Sure, if the proposal was the topic of the article, fine. You admit that it's "not enough by itself" and since NCORP doesn't allow you to combine references to reach notability and that each reference must meet all the criteria, then I am correct to point out that none of the references meet the criteria therefore the topic fails NCORP. HighKing++ 11:52, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
          • You say you are correct, my opinion differs. The encyclopaedic content on any company is largely the activities of that company. What NCORP does not say is that a source must cover every aspect of a company to count towards notability. Your claim that I am trying to combine sources to establish notability is a strawman argument. I am not, it was simply a recognition that more than one source is required. In any case, my analysis of this source was only aimed at countering your assertion that all the sources lacked corporate indepence, not that this was the only, or main, source of notability. SpinningSpark 14:01, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
            • It is nonsense to suggest that comments by locals and other interested parties about a rise in pollution at an airport as a result of a proposal to relocate an airline there would count towards notability. What NCORP *does* say about the criteria for establishing notability is that it must include in-depth information *about the company* and this article (and none of the articles you've posted referenced) does that in a way which also includes "Independent Content". Either you've posted a link to referenced an article which relies entirely on information provided by the company or an exec *or* you've posted referenced a link which says nothing in-depth about the company. You're welcome to a different opinion on what the guidelines should or should not include or allow but AfD isn't the place to expand NCORP. HighKing++ 17:01, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
              • Excuse me, I haven't posted any of the sources under discussion, so accusing me of posting deficient sources is an unwarranted calumny. In fact I have only posted one source in this discussion, and that was to answer a question by Worldbruce on the date the company separated from the Kaiser organisation. It was not to support notability (although you commented yourself that it was the best source so far). SpinningSpark 17:23, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - In my opinion, this article has improvement opportunities. I found multiple recent sources on KaiserAir:
  1. Pleasanton Weekly
  2. Pleasanton Weekly
  3. Pleasanton Weekly
  4. Pleasanton Weekly
  5. Pleasanton Weekly
  6. The Independent
  7. The Independent
  8. The Mercury News
  9. The Press Democrat — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mommmyy (talkcontribs) 14:14, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • None of those sources meet the criteria for establishing notability. Doesn't matter the number of "hits" you find on Google, we need references that meet NCORP criteria. Also, the Pleasanton Weekly is not a national paper, it is a local paper with a small weekly circulation. Leaving that aside:
  1. Pleasanton Weekly discusses the topic company's proposal to move their HQ but it has no in-depth information on the company, fails CORPDEPTH
  1. Pleasanton Weekly discusses concerns relating to pollution and noise but also has no in-depth information on the company, fails CORPDEPTH
  2. Pleasanton Weekly provides an update about the proposal, again no in-depth information on the company, fails CORPDEPTH
  3. Pleasanton Weekly discusses the plan and proposal to relocate in detail. Again, lots of detail on the proposal, no in-depth information on the company, fails CORPDEPTH
  4. Pleasanton Weekly discusses the council's decision to review a noise report connected with the relocation proposal. Lots of detail on local objections, no in-depth information on the company, fails CORPDEPTH
  5. The Independent is 5 sentences long and the last 3 sentences are details for an upcoming zoom call and dial-in information. Fails CORPDEPTH
  6. The Independent discusses the proposal. I dealt with this reference above but it fails WP:ORGIND because the detailed information originated from a proposal submitted by the topic company and none of the rest of the information is directly related to details/information that can assist in establishing notability
  7. The Mercury News article discusses the proposal in detail including fears and objections but doesn't provide any in-depth information on the company, fails CORPDEPTH
  8. The Press Democrat article refers to a jobfair being held in a hangar owned by the topic company. It is a single mention-in-passing. Not sure the thinking behind including this but it fails CORPDEPTH in any case — Preceding unsigned comment added by HighKing (talkcontribs) 19:02, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG as an occurrence that has not demonstrated WP:LASTING impact. Contested PROD, partial reason for contesting is a comparison to Kirk Gibson's 1988 World Series home run. That 1988 home run has demonstrated LASTING, while Wilmer Flores' checked swing strikeout has not been discussed in the press in the two weeks since it happened. This situation is closer to Wild Card Wednesday, the final game of the 2011 season, which some editors insisted was notable from the day that it happened, but has had no LASTING coverage since. The final out of the Giants/Dodgers series is covered by 2021 NLDS and material can be included on Flores' article and the checked swing article. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:32, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Arguably doesn't meet WP:GNG and/or other related notability guidelines.

As it currently stands, the article requires quite a bit of cleanup as it relies heavily on primary and self-sourced material. There are only a handful of notable sources cited. Two are from Wired (same org, single source for notability purposes) and one from The Verge which barely says anything at all.

Wasn't able to find any other RS on the subject that could provide "significant coverage" from a quick web search. It could be that there is sufficient material, but not too sure.

Here are some sources that have covered MobileCoin, I'm not sure if any of them are considered significant and reliable?:

technical-tiresias (talk) 19:51, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Addressing the question whether 'significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject' applies, I tried to find a couple of articles about MobileCoin in the german news. The first mentions I found go back to 2017 and come from tech-publications [1] [2] and from 'Der Standard' [3] (a daily newspaper from Austria). More recent mentions have been in the tech publication heise/ct [4], from t3n [5], the online branch of the 't3n Magazin' (a publicatio specializing on digital finance), as well as in the largest german news site 'Der Spiegel' [6]. Of course Signal mentioned that they are integrating MobileCoin in their app [7]. The article would certainly benefit by adding sources like these. To me it looks like the subjet warrants its own article as, over a substantial time period, it has seen a wide range of independent news coverage by important and diverse publications, therefore I believe we should Keep it.ExperteImBademantel (talk) 20:43, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, the sourcing isn't great though as "popex" has been used for other things in the past and due to how long ago the service existed there may be inaccessible sources. A possible alternative to deletion would be to merge and improve the Celebdaq, which appears to have been an offshoot of Popex. However, as the two co-existed for four years as separate websites, I think keeping separate articles makes more sense. NemesisAT (talk) 12:13, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Celebdaq as an alternative to deletion. I don't believe there are enough reliable sources, from a cursory search, to write a proper article for Popex beyond a stub-length page. Unfortunately, the sources brought up by jp×g seemed to mostly contain mere passing mentions of the topic. But, it is an important part of Celebdaq's development history from what I can tell, so deletion is not an appropriate course of action. Haleth (talk) 00:39, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Really doesn't seem to be significant coverage even with the additional sources that have surfaced as part of this AFD discussion. Merging doesn't make sense to me as the Celebdaq article is about a completely different site that simply licensed the code used for Popex. DocFreeman24 (talk) 05:39, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The BBC News sources constitute primary sources in this case as they talk about the BBC's own Celebdaq; the Investegate one is a press release. music:)ally looks like blog, not a reliable source. The rest does not constitute significant coverage for Popex. Celebdaq already exists as a separate article. IceWelder [] 19:33, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    BBC News regularly covers other parts of the BBC in both a positive and a negative light. I think it's unfair to treat it as a primary source, as the news arm is a different team of people to those who setup Celebdaq. NemesisAT (talk) 19:38, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. If someone created a redirect, I wouldn't contest it, but there is nothing sourced worth merging to the Celebdaq article. czar 02:21, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced board game article, BGG has no reviews and very few forum posts about this niche product. I prodded this with "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies)'s section for products requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar." PROD was removed by User:Andrew Davidson with no useful rationale, so here we go.

BGG is a community wiki/review site and so not a RS. IGGamecenter is someone's personal project, not a RS. The last source cited is a commercial page that attributes stuff like game description to BGG. Sorry, but this is still zero RS and zero notability. There is a bit about the game's history but what is the RS for that? If an RS can be found, a redirect and merge to Lines of Action could be carried out.

  • Keep Sackson is a well-respected designer and so their games will naturally attract coverage. This case is no exception and it's easy to find such coverage in sources such as Games Magazine's 2nd Big Book of Games and Schmittberger's New Rules for Classic Games. The topic therefore passes WP:GNG and we should follow the usual policies of WP:ATD; WP:NOTPAPER and WP:PRESERVE. Andrew🐉(talk) 22:32, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Sid Sackson, where it is already included under his list of designed games. As already mentioned by GizzyCatBella, there is no actual claim of notability in the article. In addition, none of the introduced sources actually show any indication of notability either, on top of most of them not being from reliable sources. They are merely information on its publication history and/or a listing of its rules. There is no actual coverage or discussion of the game in them that would pass the WP:GNG.

  • Redirect The Schmittberger source seems to be good, but as a listing of many games it seems to be rather brief, and likely has little more than the rules themselves. A web search returns nothing of worth aside from that source, and nothing else really demonstrates notability. Avilich (talk) 14:33, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Sid Sackson per WP:ATD. Topic fails WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 14:30, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect to Lines of Action. The Schmittberger source confirms that Sackson's creation was inspired by this game so I don't know why Piotrus is disputing the lack of reliable sources for that fact. Apparently he is writing off the source without reading it, which is ironic as he is criticising another contributor here for listing sources without reading them. SpinningSpark 17:56, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Did someone link Schmittberger source in a readable format? Right now I can't access it on Google Books. If Keep voters can't be bothered to ensure that their "best" sources are accessible for verification by others, it can be helped their "arguments" won't be well respected or influntial. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:15, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    It's not my problem, or anyone elses, that you can't read the source and we don't reject reliable sources because they are not available online. To help you out, the book covers the topic over nearly two pages. On the fact under discussion it says "[Sackson] was inspired by Claude Souci's outstanding game Lines of Action". SpinningSpark 11:17, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete No significant coverage to give GNG with a WP:BEFORE yielding nothing significant or reliable. I can see usual arguments from the rescue squadron given above which do not meet policy or guidelines (inc. citing a source that doesn't mention the topic of this article).

Renominating for deletion this WP:MILL publicist BLP, which was a "no consensus" when last considered some years ago. No RS sources have materialized in the intervening years, and still does not meet the criteria in WP:ANYBIO. Article is pieced together from self-published sources and the subject's own articles. Still nothing substantial written about this person so as to put him in the league of an Edward Bernays, as noted in initial deletion nomination, or David Finn. Authoring a textbook, and getting quoted a lot representing other people, does not satisfy ANYBIO. But the article subject is good at self-promotion, hence this article.

Articles about very minor events that fail the will people still need this article to exist ten years from now test. These were created late last year by a British editor on analogy to British articles like 2021 British cabinet reshuffle, but that British example literally has dozens of people moving around, whereas these have far, far fewer, and the British one has almost five times as much sourcing as either of these do -- and WikiProject Canada has never had a consensus that standalone articles about Canadian cabinet shuffles were needed (as witness the fact that these are the only two Canadian cabinet shuffle articles that exist at all, even though Canada has been having cabinet shuffles for over 150 years.) Information about portfolio reassignments can be, and already is, handled in the existing 29th Canadian Ministry, without needing separate articles about the shuffles as standalone "events" in their own right.
I can imagine a scenario where a Canadian cabinet shuffle could accumulate more notability than usual as an event — but the one I can think of that might potentially have a genuine case for that isn't even either of these, and we certainly wouldn't need an indiscriminate box set of hundreds of articles about every Canadian cabinet shuffle that's ever happened.
And even if for some reason these were to be kept, they would have to be moved on WP:ENGVAR grounds, as Canadian English doesn't call them reshuffles, we just call them shuffles. Bearcat (talk) 16:39, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to 29th Canadian Ministry.

List of tallest structures in Isfahan

Per consensus at recent deletion discussions at List of tallest buildings in Pattaya, List of tallest buildings in Rajasthan and List of tallest buildings in Tagaytay, this list does not meet our notability standards. There is no evidence that these buildings are discussed as a group so the topic fails WP:LISTN. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 15:34, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Additional points for consideration:

  • Firstly, the list has no navigational purpose as the overwhelming majority of the buildings featured are not notable enough for their own Wikipedia article.
  • Secondly, this topic does not have WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS. Database listings in Emporis and Skyscraper Page do not constitute significant coverage.
  • I see no evidence that the topic 'List of tallest structures in Isfahan' is covered as a group by reliable secondary sources but I am happy to be proved wrong here.
  • No significant high-rise buildings under construction or even planned currently so little chance of future notability; no point in sending to draft.
  • The whole article is currently a violation of WP:NOTMIRROR as it is almost entirely a copy and paste from Emporis and Skyscraper Page.
  • The city is not the largest in Iran nor is it the capital.
  • I really do not believe that a building simply being more than 40m tall makes it notable.
  • The topic is already covered more than adequately at List of tallest structures in Iran, so this list is redundant. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 15:36, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Was originally created to consolidate numerous weapon and weapon systems for the Iowa-class of battleships, but has degraded over the years and is now arguably bloated and probably housing some original research. Listing here first for community input on its fate, with the next step (if kept) being WP:FAR. TomStar81 (Talk) 14:31, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • ADDENDUM Since a lot of people seem to be having trouble with this, lemme clarify the AFD criteria:
    • WP:NOT (not an indiscriminate collection of information),
    • WP:CRUFT (highly detailed information of a very specific caliber),
    • WP:OR(sources may be lacking for some information, information could be based on first hand accounts of what worked best an not manuals),
    • WP:N (we have articles for all systems covered in this article that may serve as a better venue for the existing information, in which case consolidating it all here could be seen as unnecessary and/or a waste of electrons when they are notable enough to stand on their own).
Independent of these issues are those related to WP:WIAFA, however AFD is not for discussing FA/FAR/FARC related matters, those can be addressed elsewhere when and if the community decides the article should be kept. TomStar81 (Talk) 19:28, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The nominator says "probably housing some original research". Probably? If you don't even know it has a problem, don't waste everyone's time trying to delete it. If its "bloated" then that's a case for normal editing. I'm sure they check for that when they promote an article to "featured article" status. Dream Focus 15:57, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep per WP:SNOWBALL. You need a hell of a reason to delete a featured quality article, and “arguably bloated and probably housing some original research” absolutely doesn’t cut it. There are a million less drastic venues you could take this issue. Dronebogus (talk) 15:59, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • I’ll admit even though the nom was a jackass about it I probably jumped the gun. I’m changing my vote to neutral. Dronebogus (talk) 17:59, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I feel I should point out that the nominator, TomStar81, also originally brought the article to FAC in the first place, and has commented on the degraded quality of it here. So the nomination should be taken in good faith. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 16:28, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:ATD-E - any issues with the article can be fixed through ordinary editing and discussion. An FAR would seem a good place to do that.-- Pawnkingthree (talk) 16:31, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Andrew Davidson, Dream Focus, and Dronebogus: WAS ORIGINALLY CREATED TO CONSOLIDATE NUMEROUS WEAPON AND WEAPON SYSTEMS OF THE IOWA-CLASS OF BATTLESHIPS. Do you people read NONE of these nomination statements? If not then let me preschool this for you all so it'll be slightly more comprehensible to your apparently star struck eyes:
      • Do we still need a consolidated list? If so, then yes, keep, if not then should we delete.
      • If it's bloated and we trim, do we still think there'd be anything here worth independently expanding on? If not, then should it be deleted or converted to a list and moved to reflect that?
      • On the matter of original research, do we feel that the article could have any existing OR trimmed and still retain its usefulness, or on OR grounds do we feel TNT is justified here?
      • Should this be considered a subset of FANCRUFT? Essentially you've got a bunch of extraordinarily detailed information on obsolete weaponry and weaponry systems, most of which cold probably be better presented either in the individual articles or frankly ona different wiki/wikia set altogather where people can obsess over the extraordinarily detailed and intricate inner workings of the system(s) in question.
      • Is this at or above the threshold for notability? The battleships certainly are, but are the individual components? Most radar and sonar systems have no articles on site, and most of the existing articles discuss in the currently in use systems such as AEGIS - and even then in a more nuance way. If tyhe systems are no longer operable, do they still satisfy notability requirements to remain on site?
      • Is this now more akin to a how to guide? If so, should it be trimmed to bring it into compliance or not, and if so in what ways?
Don't gimme this "snow keep" bullshit when its overwhelming clear none of you even bothered to read the damn thing, nor have you put any meaningful thought into your keep votes. Try again, gentlemen, and this time try not to embarrass yourselves by getting giddy over the bronze star, shall we? TomStar81 (Talk) 16:34, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You did not give a valid reason for deletion for us to respond to. Use the talk page to discuss how to edit things, don't try to delete the entire article without a valid reason. I don't see it as akin to a how to guide. This is a valid spin-off article, it giving more information about key components to the battleship, that wouldn't fit in the main article. Dream Focus 16:48, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Because I trust people to be competent enough to read an article, its deletion nomination, and then articulate a reply. In your case you do now make a keep argument that is actually in line with my thinking, however with articles for the 16-inch/50-caliber Mark 7 gun (primary guns), 5-inch/38-caliber gun (secondary guns), Bofors 40 mm gun (primary AA-gun), Oerlikon 20 mm cannon (secondary AA-Gun), Tomahawk (missile) (Circa 180-1992), Harpoon (missile) (circa 180-1992), and Phalanx CIWS (primary AA-gun c.1980-1992), all of which do a much better job of presenting the information and with more accurate, less bloated, and better cited for the system-as-a-whole instead of used-on-the-ship approach as done here back in the mid 2000s I am leaning towards a position that deleting the article and instead linking to the individual sections works better for both the ships and the encyclopedia as a whole. dedicated pages for the individual systems allow for a better presentation of the weaponry systems including background information that would be out of place here on the summary page, which brings me back to the afd point as viewed through your point: do we even need this, or are we better served by outsourcing to the individual weapon systems to their respective page(s)?

      • @Dronebogus: <sigh> Per WP:CIR, it is my duty to inform you that without a valid reason based on existing policy and/or guideline related grounds your vote counts for nothing because we seek consensus and all you've said is you like the star. Liking the bronze star isn't a justifiable enough reason to keep an article (see WP:ILIKEIT for more information on this particular argument), therefore in the absence of any meaningful grounds to retain this article (list?) I am afraid that I must request that you !vote be disqualified from the discussion's finally outcome. I am, however, willing to extend to you an WP:AGF argument that, at some point over the next several days, you may yet figure out what it is you feel should be cited as proof that this article meets some sort of threshold to retain its position on wikipedia, at which point I will withdraw this comment and let your grounded-in-policy-or-guideline-keep stand.

    • It’s not about winning. I couldn’t care less about what happens as long as it’s based on reasonable consensus. However you seemingly want to “win” and rub it in my face to “prove” I’m an idiot, which is WP:UNCIVIL in the extreme. Dronebogus (talk) 17:39, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • Yes, it does seem that since this started consensus has emerged that I'm being a dick/asshole/jerk. Unfortunately, I can not argue that, as there is not only consensus for it but also proof of it all over this afd page (and I note only the afd page, i've kept it here specifically to avoid bumping up against WP:NPA, which I'm at this point DANGEROUSLY close to doing despite my best efforts). If you feel that the case before you presents enough evidence for reprimand your welcome to file your report at WP:ANI, you are after all an editor and should feel welcome on the site. As an admin, my MO is Be Thou For the People, failing to live up to that gets people slapped or in admin cases disqualified from wielding the tools under the worst circumstances. Do what you feel you need to do here and/or there, just remember that between the anger and the zingers there are good points being made here - points both of us could stand to listen to.

  • Merge Much of this is cited to primary sources like "Naval Ordnance and Gunnery, Volume 1, Naval Ordnance, NAVPERS 10797-A. Washington, D.C.: U.S. Navy, Bureau of Naval Personnel. 1957." so I agree that this unique article is rather overly specific and crufty. I am not enough of an subject expert like the nominator to know what's important here, but this is an unusual level of detail that isn't necessarily encyclopedic beyond what should be consolidated to Iowa-class_battleship#Armament. Many of the individual arms were used on many ship types and have their own articles and need not be detailed here when linked. Reywas92Talk 17:10, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Dream Focus: See Reywas92's merge and reason? THAT is how you tell people who actually read the article from those who stopped at the star: they who have read the article grasp what's being debated here. Keep that in mind going forward: just because it has a star doesn't mean the afd is malformed, pointy, etc, the nominator may have a good reason for listing it. Always remember to judge on the merits of the nomination, not on the star. TomStar81 (Talk) 17:17, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge per nominator, who is a subject-matter expert and primary author. This can be handled better in the single article on the battleship class, as a significant component of the ships. Comments like As this is a Featured Article the nomination is either frivolous contrary to WP:POINT or a misunderstanding of AfD per WP:NOTCLEANUP are blatantly false, there is absolutely nothing pointy or misunderstanding here; nominator is a primary contributer.

        • I disagree that they come across as assuming bad faith, at least compared to “let me preschool you” “<sigh>” bold all-capsing, and everything else the nom did to make me, Dream Focus et al. feel like crap. Dronebogus (talk) 17:53, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
          • I'd say As this is a Featured Article the nomination is either frivolous contrary to WP:POINT or a misunderstanding of AfD per WP:NOTCLEANUP is clearly an assumption of a frivolous nomination e.i. bad faith. Hog Farm Talk 17:55, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Perhaps an AfD should wait until the article is not featured on the main. I am unfamiliar with the featured section - and had to search it to find it, but there is likely WP:NORUSH.

        Understood TomStar81 and Hogfarm. I am late to the party, but I am hung up on the star. It is like a DYK or in the news on the front page with a template tag. If we feature it on the main, we shouldn't have these kind of questions about it. No rush is just an essay, but it is relevant to this discussion. I am merely commenting here.

        " Its not asking much to to type ... a valid, policy and/or guideline based reason for your !vote". Ironic you should mention that, as there is not a valid policy/guideline reason in your nomination. It's perfectly legitimate for participants to respond with keep per no valid WP:DELREASON under those circumstances. SpinningSpark 19:31, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Lightburst: I know, and I get that. The problem though is that such behavior sets a very dangerous precedent by advertising that if you can get an article to FA status it becomes, for all intents and purposes, "immune" from the demands of WP:RS, WP:N, WP:OR, WP:NOT, WP:WIAFA, WP:CRUFT, WP:CREEP, WP:CONSENUS (Consensus can change), etc. If we are to ensure that we police the site fairly and justly according to our policy and guideline pages then we must apply those standards and the changes to those standards to all articles, including those that hold the highest ranking available. This comes back to our not being a paper encyclopedia and to the fact that over time all things change. Its been 14 years since this article got its star and in that time no other ship article has ever had its weaponry and weapon systems consolidated into one page like this, and in the time since the page was created the specific systems covered have had their own individual pages vastly expanded. We have to take all of this into account here to decide the outcome, which means looking beyond the bronze star in the right corner. Consider if you will a crime seen: the usual suspects may be the prime suspects, but if the science tells you they didn't do it then another solution must be found that satisfies the narrative presented by evidence at hand. To quote Sherlock Holmes, "If you eliminate the impossible then whatever remains, however improbable, must be true." In this case, if we subtract the bronze star and the bloat, what remains is selected information either already present in other articles better able to handle the subject matter or information that didn't belong here anyway, in which case the article's purpose on Wikipedia is moot because other articles handle it better. I know it can be hard, but we have to look at this article objectively, not emotionally, otherwise we risk retaining a page that doesn't need to be here.

  • Keep. I can see no valid reason in the nom for deletion. If, as the nominator claims, the article has accumulated a lot of cruft, that can be dealt with by normal editing. At worst, it could be reverted all the way back to when it became a Featured Article. Merge back into the main article may be an option, but that will still require the work of trimming out the cruft and it will still not be deleted so the page history is retained for attribution. As the nominator is discovering, AFD is not the best place to resolve such issues. For the avoidance of doubt, I am not offering an opinion on merge, but what I will say is that I found what I read of the article (I didn't read the whole thing) I found the detail fascinating, and just what I would expect of such an article. I don't think any of it is unencyclopaedic and I would hate to see that detail lost in a merge. SpinningSpark 19:14, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Fair points, although I will note there really isn't any reason why we couldn't salvage what we need from the article's weaponry sections and add those to the articles on the 16-inch/50-caliber Mark 7 gun, 5-inch/38-caliber gun, Bofors 40 mm gun, Oerlikon 20 mm cannon, Tomahawk (missile), Harpoon (missile), and Phalanx CIWS. TomStar81 (Talk) 19:28, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Spinningspark: For the record, the first version noted in the history with the bronze star is dated March 30, 2007, at which time the article looked like this. I post this for your consideration and out of respect for your point concerning rolling back the clock, as it were. TomStar81 (Talk) 19:39, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        Comparing those versions make it easy to see the crufty stuff that has been added. The cleaning procedure of the main armament after firing seems pretty over the top for instance. And is it even correct? I'm pretty sure they didn't spend a whole day cleaning the gun after every time it was fired in a battle situation. So I agree with the noms complaint, but it is still a WP:FIXABLE problem and thus not grounds for deletion. SpinningSpark 08:18, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and FAR. This clearly isn't an FA any more in terms of the criteria, regardless of the star. I mean it contains a pretty fulsome how-to on the loading and operation of the Mk 12 5-in gun, which might even be too much detail for the article on the weapon. It is a ridiculously high level of detail for an article of this type. There are many more significant issues. Far be it for me to insist on bureaucratic procedure, but I think the first step would be to FAR it and if it is delisted then determine its future at that time. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 07:25, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Bringing together information on fire control systems and armament in one article is a good thing to do - the various components of fire control systems and the armament need to work together. It is appropriate for this article to go into a much greater level of detail than is appropriate for an article on the ship class. I think the article could be much improved - there is a problem with articles on things like ships that some editors remove information that they cannot understand, or do not understand the significance of.-- Toddy1 (talk) 16:49, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. While I agree with the reasoning of Reyway92 and Hog Farm, it's worth noting that the Iowa-class battleship article already has a 1,300-word "Armaments" heading and likely does not require merging; even if we gut the uncited cruft that has grown at this article since its FAC it still stands at over 3,000 words and I can't see all of that being needed at the parent article without being wildly undue in weight. As it stands this feels like an overgrown content fork cited largely to primary sources, which wouldn't pass muster on GNG if it were created today. This is in no way a knock on the nominator's original efforts but unfortunately it's possible to expend good work in poor directions. ᵹʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ 23:54, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The information looks good and well referenced, the only argument for merging would be if there were space in the main article, the main article is already too long, and so per WP:SUMMARY, the correct thing is to spin-off subtopics. This is a valid sub-topic, the material is detailed and well-referenced, and I see absolutely no-problem with it. The information is not indiscriminate; it is niche, but so is a lot of things we publish at Wikipedia, per WP:NOTPAPER, I am unconvinced we are better served by removing the information entirely, and per WP:PRESERVE, if we're keeping it the best place to keep it is here, per WP:SUMMARY. The idea that the article has degraded from a formerly FA-level status also bears no weight, WP:NOTCLEANUP, if the article has degraded, then WP:SOFIXIT and restore it to the state it was when it was good enough to be an actual featured article. --Jayron32 18:07, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, ?. I see nothing wrong with the page. Things like this are one reason I veer away from deletion discussions. On top of that many long-time editors who post worthwhile analysis and comments on AfD pages are now under what seems like a well-attended and successful simultaneous purging attempt to cancel them from AfD, and that's such a strange and over-the-top thing to encounter within and from such a principled and worthy project as Wikipedia that I have no more words.

If you think that you've seen this article before, it's because you probably have. It may have been at Draft:Ali Mansour, Ali Mansour, Ali Mansour (actor) and various other places. The last letter of his surname has been capitalised in an attempt to circumvent the salting. Whilst it has been speedy deleted under WP:G5 numerous times, I can't find any AfDs on this subject that actually reached a conclusion. I'm submitting this for AfD as I believe that the subject fails WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR and may even be a hoax, to an extent - the claim that he played football for PSG is particularly laughable.

This currently is not eligible for speedy deletion as the creator is not yet blocked for being a sockpuppet and, given the backlog at SPI, this may take a few days (I also am not sure who the sockmaster for this farm even is as all of the socks seem to be blocked without tags). AfD will enable us to establish deletion through WP:G4 for any future attempts to game the system by creating this article under a slightly different name again and again.

So not exactly our typical academic activity (have patent citations been discussed before? If so, I can't recall).

  • Comment I would like to see criteria for PROF broadened to cope with scientists in industry from a few decades ago. Many of the routes by which academics become notable simply weren't done back then: there were fewer named chairs, and industrial people wouldn't have held them; industrial chemists didn't tend to publish as much, or be editors of major journals. And yet they changed the world, and people nowadays have a legitimate interest in who they were. It's an awkward situation. Elemimele (talk) 21:29, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - while well-meaning and good-faith, the nomination here includes a misunderstanding of WP:INHERIT. The idea is that notability isn't inherited through some peripheral association with a notable something; the brother of a notable politician, the subsidiary of a notable company, the stablemate of a notable product. It is not, however, designed to prevent people from being considered notable for having made a significant contribution to their field. In fact, such an idea is directly contradictory to WP:CREATIVE and WP:ANYBIO #2. Making a notable contribution - authoring a notable book, directing a notable film, designing a notable building - is not a matter of incidentally inheriting notability from the thing you created. There is still an argument as to whether that contribution is significant enough to warrant inclusion, but that's a very different discussion. In this case we're talking about someone who created something that is on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. Yes, that's now a big list but it includes things like paracetamol, morphine and oxygen. This is something that is also the 27th most prescribed drug in the US. That's a significant enough contribution for me. Stlwart111 23:13, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I believe you have misunderstood the meaning of the guidelines you linked. WP:CREATIVE lists additional criteria under which a person is likely to be notable, not presumed to be notable. And WP:ANYBIO #2 has a footnote saying "a person who is 'part of the enduring historical record' will have been written about, in depth, independently in multiple history books in that field", contradicting your assertion. It is quite possible for a book to be notable while its author is not, a wine to be notable while its winemaker is not, a song to be notable while its composer is not (or may even be unknown). In the same way, it is possible for a drug to be notable while its inventor is not, if the inventor has not been written about. ~Anachronist (talk) 00:52, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    And its possible for both to be notable, and for him to be notable for having made a significant contribution to his field, and I believe he has. That's not the sort of thing WP:INHERIT is designed to prevent. Stlwart111 04:47, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    No one has argued that he didn't make a significant contribution to his field. The guidelines you linked, however, do not suggest that this qualifies as an automatic presumption of notability without him also having been written about. ~Anachronist (talk) 15:31, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, you missed the first word of that footnote which starts, "Generally..." and generally that's true. Specifically, in this instance, substantiation is in the form of consideration and inclusion in a list of things deemed essential by experts in the field. Such lists being, quite literally, an enduring historical record. And ultimately, that might not be enough for you (and that's fine) but it's more than enough for me.

  • Weak Keep It's not too surprising to me that a drum corp would mostly have coverage in drum corp sources, but that being said I'm sure they're reliable on that topic. - Scarpy (talk) 19:53, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Scarpy, the essence of the GNG is that we need independent sourcing--the DCI is not independent. Drmies (talk) 03:42, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • That’s not what independent means in the GNG "Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent. A drum Corp magazine isn’t the the same as the blue knights drum corp. - Scarpy (talk) 04:06, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • Well, Scarpy, then please cite the publications that you say are independent. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 14:35, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
          • You mean sources that are not published by the Blue Knights? The last four that are not DCI.org (which is a little like the citing the MLB for information about the Rockies). - Scarpy (talk) 17:29, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
            • Well, Scarpy, that leaves three sentences from a local TV channel, a link to the repertoire on what appears to be a fan site, and a now-dead link that in the end redirects to the same fan site. The Rockies are, of course, notable because they are a major professional organization and pass the GNG in flying colors. None of that applies here. 18:02, 19 October 2021 (UTC)Drmies (talk)
multiple means more than one. If you count those, there's three, and three is more than one. And there's many more promising sources than that. You can go through this list and nitpick if you'd like.

The result was draftify to Draft:Vikram Vedha (2022 film). Consensus was to delete, but I'll drafity in case the film becomes notable after release. The most compelling argument in this discussion is that this future film fails WP:NFF because there is no evidence that the production itself is notable.

Vikram Vedha (2022 film)

This film does not satisfy future film guidelines. This draft or article is about an unreleased film. The film notability guideline identifies three stages in the production cycle for films:

  • 1. Planned films that have not begun production (principal photography or animation). These planned films do not satisfy film notability.
  • 2. Films that are confirmed by reliable sources to have begun production, but have not been released. These films are only notable if production itself satisfies general notability in terms of significant coverage. Mere mention of the start of production does not satisfy notability.
  • 3. Films that have been released, whose notability is determined primarily by reception and reviews.

This film page must be evaluated based on general notability of production. Category:AfC comment templates Of the three references that are listed to state that principal photography has begun, two are press releases making a passing mention, and one does not appear to mention the film at all.

Number Reference Remarks Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 News18.com Announcement of the film No No Yes No

@Kailash29792: NFF doesn't draw a single line at 'principal photography started'. And its pre-production marketing likely doesn't matter. Until the film is released, an article is discouraged unless the production process itself is noteworthy. Platonk (talk) 08:34, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Fails to satisfy WP:NFF because there is no indication that the production itself is notable.

  • Keep. Passes NFF (principle photography has commenced) the highly successful SNG for temporary lessening the strictness for the GNG to apply. Sources will arise, imminently, and there is currently a plethora of sources, and this page history is the places to keep the history of edits and swapping in of better sources. Readers want this article, and readers must not be sent to draftspace. This reading of NFF has been highly successful for a very long time. It is a very strong predictor of successful articles, and it works excellently for new editors. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:22, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@SmokeyJoe: (A) You misunderstand NFF. (B) Which SNG? (C) If you want to change a policy or guideline, this is not the venue for it. Go to the talk page of the policy or guideline you wish to change, or to one of the noticeboards, to bring up your issues there. (D) Wikipedia is NOT a directory, and especially not a film directory!

  • Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he has a stronger notability claim. Every artist is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because he exists — the notability test requires him to have reliable source coverage about him, such as critical analysis of his work and/or evidence that he's won a notable art award. But two of the three footnotes here are just primary source "staff" profiles on the self-published websites of galleries he's been directly affiliated with, which are not support for notability, and the only one that comes from a reliable source media outlet is not covering him in the context of accomplishing anything that would pass WP:CREATIVE, but in the context of advocating for something to be done about an issue — and regardless of where you come down on the question of whether that helps to support notability or not, it doesn't secure notability all by itself if it's the only notability-contributing source in the pool. Even just passing WP:GNG takes quite a bit more than just one valid footnote. Bearcat (talk) 15:27, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Despite playing 16 mins of professional football 12 years ago, which, at best, is a weak presumption of passing WP:GNG, there doesn't appear to be any truly significant coverage of this particular Bachvarov. A Bulgarian source search returns sources that only relate to namesakes and my other searches yielded only a passing mention in a match report and an injury announcement hosted on his club's own website.

The claim to notability is that she is best known for her typewriter art, but the only source in the article doesn't mention that at all. There is a claim that she has had a solo exhibition, but it is difficult to say where: "London, bookart bookshop" probably refers to bookartbookshop (http://bookartbookshop.com) on the corner of Pitfield Street and Charles Square in Hoxton, which isn't exactly a major venue. There don't appear to exist any reviews of that exhibition, nor of any of her work. There is no significant coverage in independent, reliable sources.

  • Delete per nominator. Poorly sourced article. Fails verification by third party, non-partisan sources. The title alone is a violation of NPOV (Islamic and Azerbaijani ???) and should be renamed to List of cultural and religious sites damaged during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and include both Azerbaijani and Armenian damaged sites, the list is pretty short anyways. Still in favor of deleting it rather than keeping it with these sources. Eurofan88 (talk) 19:32, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and Improve. Destruction of Shusha city was describes with neutral sources in the lead. Article has references from BBC and Amnesty International. I also agree on adding Armenian sites damaged during the war. Also in talk page, one user called it one that serves to incriminate a whole nation, and to advance dangerous Armenia vs Islamic World concept. With that logic, we should delete any article about Islamic terrorism since it may anger Muslim readers.--Abutalub (talk) 21:44, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. First, there is a problem in the title of the article: "Azerbaijani" and "Islamic" mean the same thing, why separate them? Secondly, since there is no press freedom and Azerbaijan is ranked 167 in the World Press Index Freedom, so the "Azerbaijani side claims" section looks very much like propaganda, since even years after the war, the claims were not confirmed by third-party sources. Also, a title proposed by Eurofan88 List of cultural and religious sites damaged during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict seems controversial. Since the conflict has lasted from 1988 to the present day, how can one qualify that this or that building was damaged during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict? For future, "List of [cultural and religious] sites damaged or destroyed in Nagorno-Karabakh and surrounding areas" can be my proposed option using only third party reliable sources (without any claims from all sides). Sincerely, Գարիկ Ավագյան (talk) 19:53, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Did you read the article because it includes neutral sources about how Shusha and Azerbaijan graves are destroyed.--Abutalub (talk) 22:10, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I think the title could be improved. As for the context, destruction of Azerbaijani cultural heritage is well documented by third party sources, and there is also plenty of photo and video evidence. Grandmaster 21:23, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and Improve. If it can include both Azerbaijani and Armenian monuments and be renamed to List of damaged Azerbaijani and Armenian sites during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict it should be kept.Carthago814 (talk) 14:04,20 October 2021 (UTC)
What means "during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict"? For example, is the destroyed medieval Armenian cemetery in Nakhijevan considered destroyed "during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict" or not? Sincerely, Գարիկ Ավագյան (talk) 08:00, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It should only include cultural heritage sites destroyed in the first and 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh wars and not the Armenian cemetary in Julfa that is cultural destruction. Carthago814 (talk) 10:20, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Julfa is also in Nakhchivan not Nagorno-Karabakh Carthago814 (talk) 10:27, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the sites in the list are outside of Nagorno-Karabakh. So it should be renamed to either "during Nagorno-Karabakh war" or "in Nagorno-Karabakh" as the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict started in 1998 and continues to this day. Sincerely, Գարիկ Ավագյան (talk) 10:40, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Btw, destruction of the Armenian medieval cemetery was described as 'the worst cultural genocide of the 21st century'[14]. Sincerely, Գարիկ Ավագյան (talk) 10:46, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It also includes the former Armenian-occupied territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh. But renaming it to "List of damaged Azerbaijni and Armenian sites in Nagorno-Karabakh" would be clear. And the destruction of Julfa is already on the List of destroyed heritage while some Azerbaijni damaged heritage is not on the list. Carthago814 (talk) 11:04, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate your interest in Islam, Turkey and related topics, but have you read the "article"? It is a classical case of kompromat - damaging information which may be used to create negative publicity. Roughy like Israeli demolition of Palestinian property. We have to remind ourselves the Wikipedia:Advocacy policy which dictates that Wikipedia is a not a place for advocacy, and advocacy is exactly what this "article" does. Wikipedia is not a repository either, what is the encyclopedic value of keeping a list like that? Have you looked at the sources? - 1news.az "Армянские вандалы разрушили (Armenian vandals destroyed)..."""". " "Erməni təxribatı (Armenian Provocation)".... etc. And what are "Azerbaijani sites" anyway, can anybody define that clearly? Sites in Republic of Azerbaijan? Soviet Azerbaijan? First Azerbaijan Republic? Iranian Azerbaijan? Would that include the disputed Nagorno Karabakh itself? If yes - which borders - before 1992-1994 or before 2020? How about sites that precede Azerbaijan as political or cultural entity? There are so many issues that I am afraid the best solution is deletion or a move to draftspace and only when it meets basic standards of wikipedia - to be reviewed and nominated for inclusion. The creator does not appear keen on improvement either - reverted an attempt of cleanup and constructive suggestions in talkpage were met with resistance and avoidance of questions. --Armatura (talk) 21:22, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Armatura, "Azerbaijani" here refers to Azerbaijani population of Nagorno Karabakh and adjacent territories. Are you denying that OSCE fact-finding mission found the Fuzuli city in ruins? Or Insitute for War and Peace reporting that Armenians burnt down Azerbaijani homes in Shusha? I am sure we can find Armenian sources that Azerbaijanis burnt down their own mosques too, right? Since we have article called Israeli demolition of Palestinian property, we can rename this article to List of damaged Azerbaijani properties.Abutalub (talk) 11:42, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is not a place for advocacy and ethnonational struggle, as simple as that. --Armatura (talk) 17:48, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
According to OSCE fact finding mission, 7 occupied districts of Azerbaijan are almost completely ruined. Which means that every Azerbaijani cultural monument there is ruined too. There is plenty of photo and video evidence available even on wiki commons.
Just a few examples, , I think they should be used in the article too, to illustrate the condition of every ruined monument.

Grandmaster, the problem is that we can't use Azeri news websites. We need third-party sources like BBC, Amnesty International and so on.Abutalub (talk) 10:47, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I’m getting tired of saying this, Grandmaster, but one can’t just synthesise and makes news article from available photography, that’s WP:OR and WP:SYNTH --Armatura (talk) 11:31, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
We don't have to synthesize anything. There are plenty of sources on destruction of mosques in Shusha, for example, or the mosque in Agdam. And the photos illustrate their present condition. Here is a source about Agdam's mosque and bread museum: [15] Grandmaster 15:00, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Grandmaster, I can't enter rferl.org. Can you copy information about Agdam's mosque and bread museum here and I can use it in the article.Abutalub (talk) 20:28, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There are photos that show ruins, and caption under the bread museum says: A Soviet-era mural still stands amid the city ruins. The caption under mosque photo says: The neglected and damaged interior of Agdam's once-glorious mosque. Grandmaster 21:18, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, but improve, with more third-party sources. Also, perhaps should be renamed to something more specific, e.g. "cultural heritage" instead of just "sites". All available evidence indicates that some damage to Azerbaijani cultural heritage has been made during the conflict. Brandmeistertalk 19:54, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Another source on Agdam:

Agdam​ was once a bustling centre for wine and agriculture and a thriving black market hub. Now it looks like a post-apocalypse movie set. The roads have been reclaimed by nature, and the few remaining patches of asphalt indicate where to find a path through thickets of shrubs and wild plants. Traces of its former elegance remain in the high arched windows of the public theatre or the destroyed façade of the city hall. Above the Muzei Khleba, the Soviet-era bread museum, its mosaic still showing a woman carrying a basket of grapes and a man in an astrakhan hat playing a lute, is the minaret of the 19th-century mosque – which, in an act of petty cultural revenge, was used as a barn after the city’s capture in the first war. Ghaith Abdul-Ahad. Each rock has two names: In Nagorno-Karabakh. London Review of Books, 17 June 2021 [16]

Grandmaster 09:13, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The topic itself is notable and certainly there was destruction of Azerbaijani sites. As it was suggested earlier, it would probably be better to have one article for all cultural monuments destroyed or damaged during the NK conflict. The article as is has major problems:
    • Many sources are questionable. "Third-party views" are often quoted from Azerbaijani media which raises concerns about the bias and reliability.
    • The scope is not clear. The title says "sites" which means that every damaged house falls under the scope of the article. In that case the format of list wouldn't work.
    • As is, it's mostly throwing things so that something sticks. The article mentions piles of hay in village mosque (which is bad!) but it's hardly an example of damage. Similarly, there are smashed graves in Kelbajar cemetery (which is also very bad!), but most likely they weren't cultural heritage objects.
Considering that the said problems affect most of the article I feel it would be better to delete, decide on scope and start anew, incorporating useful bits from the current article. Alaexis¿question? 11:51, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think it would be better to change the title to the List of damaged Azerbaijani cultural heritage sites during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, to narrow its scope and make it more precise. As for stacks or hay, the mosque was used as a barn. It is an insult to the religious feelings of Muslims, and therefore it is bad. But the mosque itself was plundered and damaged. Obviously, its interiors were not in that condition before Armenian forces took control of the area. Grandmaster 13:33, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Renaming it as you suggested is also an option. Then we'd have to review the list and see which items fall under the scope of the article and are reliably sourced.
If the Giyasli mosque was plundered, damaged and made into a barn then this is what should be said in the article. Now it's just said that Kommersant reporter found hay in it. This is just an example of the content being all over the place. Alaexis¿question? 16:19, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
We obviously need better published sources. But there cannot be any reasonable doubt that Giyasly village Mosque is ruined. Photos taken by our fellow wikipedians speak for themselves. There is a video of it too: [17] Iranian-French photographer Reza Deghati took the pictures of its condition when it passed to Azerbaijani control: [18] And I agree, we need to go through the list and see, which ones are reliably confirmed as destroyed or damaged, and keep those, and remove the ones that cannot be considered to be cultural heritage or confirmed as damaged/destroyed. Grandmaster 16:50, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Probably we see the desired state of the article similarly in terms of the scope of the article and the acceptable sources. The question is whether we can get there quicker by removing irrelevant things or by starting anew. My feeling is that the latter would be easier for everyone but I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Alaexis¿question? 20:24, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. With all due respect, the article should be deleted, a new one should be created with an acceptable title and third party sources. Since the article also contains serious accusations that need to be confirmed in reliable sources, going through the WP:AFC will, in my opinion, be acceptable to all editors and is the best option for this issue. Sincerely, Գարիկ Ավագյան (talk) 15:28, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Things like destruction of holy and culutral sites in Shusha can be added to Battle of Shusha (1992) (same for any other reliably sourced content to similarly related articles).

For pity's sake, we don't accord notability absent sound third-party sources to a college student paper, let alone a high school paper.

Simply WP:TOOSOON to create this article. Nothing is known about the team except its owner and its location. Clog Wolf Howl 05:29, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Theoretically, the best thing to do would be to draftify it until the auction (or naming ceremony at least). But, practically, it will save everyone's time and effort if this is kept and linked prominently from both Indian Premier League and 2022 IPL, so we don't end up with 35 different articles under 35 different made-up placeholder names, and 35 AFD's or ATD revert-wars, not to mention 73 recreations. There's also Ahmedabad IPL Team, FYI. Probably best to apply whatever consensus this gets to that article too. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 06:17, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • I would agree with Usedtobecool's rationale here (there's also an article for the other team that's being created under the same name). It's not that far in the future and if we don't give them these articles the children will simply create a zillion of them - this area of cricket is problematic in that regard I'm afraid.

  • Move to draftspace WP:TOOSOON, but in 3-6 months, they will be notable. Don't need an article until they actually have an official name, team manager and some players, and they won't actually compete until ~April next year. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:55, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This Lucknow Team will be the part of Indian Premeir League 2022. In December (probably) there will be a mega-auction of cricket players. So by then we will know the exact team, coaches, captain and details about other support staff. [1] . In my view there is no harm in keeping the current page. LALAJI1234 (talk) 10:26, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The auction is usually held around February, which would be the correct time to start an article- when they actually have some players. Better to be in draftspace until then, as violates WP:TOOSOON. The fact that Wikipedia is rife with IPL fandom editors is not a valid reason for these to be in article space right now. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:28, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well I am not an IPL fan though. But according to a report in TOI the mega auction will be held in December 2021.[2] Sorry for OFFENDS. LALAJI1234 (talk) 10:32, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Neither of the sources you've linked to confirm it will be in December 2021. Nevertheless, they shouldn't be created until either that time or a time when they have an official ceremony/announcement, like Rugbyfan22 suggested. Right now, all we know is 2 cities will have a team, whose name we don't even know. There is literally no benefit to having these articles until there is some useful content in them, which won't be for at least a few months (maybe 2 months if the super auction is in Dec 2021). Joseph2302 (talk) 10:40, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In accordance with what you suggest I think a page for the other team (Ahmedabad) has also been created. It must also be removed. As Board of Control for Cricket in India has not notified about the time of mega-auctions. Maybe, they will until the ongoing T20 world cup concludes , probably by mid-November. So its alright to remove the content. I support it. LALAJI1234 (talk) 10:47, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edwardx (talk) 20:10, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Edward, you mentioned this: "Struggling to find any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources, either those in the article or elsewhere online." A google search for Philip Stephenson would produce independent coverage results. There is another Philip Stephenson on Wikipedia, which is an entry for a contemporary baseball player, hence the differentiator was needed by adding the "G." initial. There are several articles linked on the Wikipedia page from reputable, independent sources, such as the Washington Post, the New York Times, the Financial Times, etc., as well as links to prestigious organizations, such as National Geographic Society and Ocean Exploration Trust where the subject serves as a board member, advisor, and/or donor. Many other philanthropists have wikipedia pages (i.e. Ted Waitt, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Waitt; Michael Bloomberg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Bloomberg and many others). This one too is factual, accurate and sourced according to guidelines. When it first accepted the entry several years ago, Wikipedia said this: "This article is within the scope of WikiProject Biography, a collaborative effort to create, develop and organize Wikipedia's articles about people." Should you feel that more or different links and sources need to be included please suggest appropriate edits or additions that you as an independent Wiki editor see as necessary. Deleting the page serves no purpose as it does not violate any terms of use. Would you please consider withdrawing your Afd?

Thank you. Ebabau (talk) 20:59, 18 October 2021 (UTC) Thank you, Ebabau. All of this will be evaluated during the course of at least one week. One thing that does concern me is that you appear to have a conflict of interest. The only articles that you have been involved with are G. Philip Stephenson and Petit Saint Vincent, an island of which Stephenson is the majority owner. Can I suggest that you read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest, and consider making a declaration? I have left a message below accordingly. Edwardx (talk) 11:18, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

Thank you, Edwardx. I see and appreciate your suggestions and the keen interest you have in this topic. I am not affiliated with the Petit Saint Vincent resort and have no input in promoting it. I am, however, involved in nonprofit marine conservation work, namely coral restoration and marine protected areas in the Eastern Caribbean. As such, the perceived COI you mention is rather cause-related and not determined by a particular place or person. All the information in the entry is factual, sourced from reputable publications, neutral and not intended to promote any particular subject, and meets Wikipedia's core content policies WP:COPO and WP:CCPOL of Neutral point of view (WP:NPOV) Verifiability (WP:V) and No original research (WP:NOR). To avoid any appearance of impropriety, I will follow your advice and include a "connected contributor" disclosure to the article, since my core interest and connection to the topic is related to nonprofit environmental conservation work. Ebabau (talk) 17:18, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

Hello Edwardx. Following your advice and the guidelines you kindly shared, I added this declaration to the page in question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:G._Philip_Stephenson#Connected_Contributor_COI_declaration Hopefully, this clarifies the connection and satisfies the question. Please let me know if you have any other suggestions and thank you once again for your keen interest. I am not as well versed as you are on Wikipedia editing, nor do I have the time to allocate to being an editor. Most of my time is spent underwater and working with NGOs and local communities to try to save and restore what is still possible to save of our degrading marine environment.

  • Weak keep. Passes WP:SIGCOV based on the sources in the article. Not sure how the nominator can make the claim that these aren't significant. He is the primary subject of The Washington Post article which covers his work with the Rompetrol petroleum company and the subsequent criminal investigation of the company in which Stephenson was involved. There's actually quite a lot of criticism of him and his company in the TWP article which could be used to expand the article. I would imagine he would have been the subject of press articles in Romanian given the high profile nature of the criminal charges being lobbied at Stephenson and his company. Likewise he is the primary subject of the Houston Chronicle piece for his work as a restaurateur. I would consider both of these independent significant coverage of the subject. The rest is mostly trivial coverage (i.e. passing mentions) but altogether I think collectively it leans to the keep side.4meter4 (talk) 02:26, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable corporation. Prior redirect to Illinois Tool Works is no longer valid as the company has been sold to Crown Holdings. Redirect to Crown Holdings doesn't seem worthwhile, since Signode forms an apparently small part of Crown's business. No indication that the corporation is notable enough for its own article.

  • Comment I would encourage everyone to take a closer look at the references. MUSICBIO #1 states that the person should be subject to "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself." (emphasis added). I don't think that these sources rise up to that standard. Ref #1: passing mention, Ref #4 appears to be a surfboard review blog (not WP:RS). Now, I'm not familiar the Australian music scene but it's debatable whether "The Brag" and "Buzz Magazine" are reputable sources either.-KH-1 (talk) 00:15, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
User:KH-1 if you turn the knobs for the operational definition thresholds of “multiple” and “nontrivial” you can make a lot of Wikipedia articles appear or disappear. My definition of multiple follows the dictionary, meaning more than one. I think something is non-trival if it gives more context than a directory, for example more context than what you would get from looking something up in the yellow pages. If there are two such cases of that, then I call it notable. Some people turn the multiple and nontrivial knobs higher, but I believe that’s persuasive redefinition. You could say “well, there’s only three books from university publishers on this topic, so that’s just barely notable” and the argument is still the same, it’s just using the vagaries of English to interpret the threshold in a different way. So the only rational approach to me seems to define them in the most bedrock parsimonious way. Which also has the advantage of being the least ambiguous. Everything else is just a “my higher threshold is better than your lower threshold for reasons.” Which is fine, but at that point it’s just a subjective “how high is up?” 3rd grade debate masquerading as very serious people having a very serious discussion. - Scarpy (talk) 07:23, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's all relative anyways, but my interpretation happens to be correct because I follow the dictionary definition. It's not saying much at all. Also, you've side-stepped by main concern, which is whether the sources are both SIGCOV and WP:RS.-KH-1 (talk) 06:23, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
nontrivial is exactly what significant coverage is about, and you'll find I mentioned in three times in my response to you. Try reading it like Gary Alford would. - Scarpy (talk) 06:37, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment User:KH-1 I dispute your contentions that mentions of the artist are trivial or sources used are not reliable. You admit lack of familiarity with Australian music scene. FYI, The Brag is a "national online publisher with a history spanning two decades, which was formerly published by Furst Media." (2007) (see here), while Buzz Magazine Australia was established in 1993 in Melbourne (see here). I believe both are independent of the artist, have editorial review, have existed for over ten years and hence are reliable sources.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 03:43, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am eagerly willing to change my vote to keep if someone can argue that this person is not notable solely for a single small event. Pinging User:Cupcake-Yum...

  • Delete. Sorry. There are only three references; none of them are Reliable Sources, and in each case their only source of information appears to be Bzeek himself. The timeline given is contradictory: did he start taking in these kids after he was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2016, or has he been taking them in for 30 years? Is there really a "Turkey’s International Benevolence Award"? A Google search for it turns up nothing except these articles. Maybe they meant an award from the “Turkiye Diyanet Foundation” - which does not appear to be especially notable and in any case I could find no independent confirmation that he got an award from them. Look, if everything in the article is true he’s a wonderful human being, but basically nothing is confirmed. WP:Verifiability is paramount here. -- MelanieN (talk) 03:20, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I highly doubt this is a community, but instead a named intersection where a church and maybe a store may have been at some point. Coordinates quite literally lead me to an intersection between two state highways and a "Four Corners Church" which a Google review describes as being abandoned (https://i.imgur.com/2Ldf2Da.png).

  • Delete. Once upon a time, our inclusion standards for television programming essentially guaranteed an automatic notability freebie to every television series so long as it was possible to offer technical verification that it existed. But the rules have long since been tightened up, and television series now require evidence of significance, such as notable television awards and/or substantial reliable source coverage about their significance in sources independent of their own self-published web presence. Nothing like that is shown here, and the four footnotes comprise two primary sources, two blogs and absolutely zero sources that would count for anything toward getting this over the notability hump — and even on a ProQuest search for in-its-own-time coverage that wouldn't Google well, all I get is a small handful of glancing namechecks of its existence in coverage of other things, and no useful sources that could actually be added to salvage this.

Fails to meet WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. All of the source included in the article is about his activities with the group NCT/WayV, showing lack of individual independent notability. Article was also moved back to draft twice, however, for reasons unknown, the draft was accepted after the first draftify despite failing to show individual independent notability. In addition, the accepted revision 1042003833 was also filled with bunch of unreliable sources with zero editorial oversight, and also trivias such as with Instagram followers that is only supported by primary source.

Imo, this article should be redirect back to draftspace. Paper9oll (🔔📝) 01:51, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The article just needs more work. Hendery did indeed have activities outside WAYV and thus independent notability, as Hendery has started in various Chinese variety shows such as Happy Camp (TV series) . He is quite a notable and popular figure in Macau, Hong Kong and Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macau Greater Bay Area and this can be backed up with reliable sources. Furthermore, Meets #7 of WP:MUS Wikipedia:Notability (music): Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city (in this case, Macau); and moreover the subject still meets all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability, while meeting notability (music). Another aspect to take into consideration with respect to the question of notability is popularity and fame, including social media popularity. It is important to note that on his birthday, Hendery was trending worldwide #1 on top social media platforms such as Twitter and Weibo. Hendery is also the most followed individuals from Macau on many social media platforms such as Instagram (more than 5 million followers), Weibo, and Twitter (1 of the 2 administrative regions of China alongside Hong Kong). He meets independent notability as he also been known to face controversy - he faced a cultural appropriation scandal which was discussed a lot on social media and Kpop Twitter. The random trivial trivias have since been removed from his page Yeungkahchun (talk) 01:59, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect/delete - I'm following the group, and his only solo work notable enough to be included will be his cast appearance on the upcoming show How Become a Family.[1] But it's not even aired yet, and other contents are either group activities or have unreliable source.
