- Merge all into Heritage Universe. Reviews establish that WP:NBOOK is met, however each book in the series doesn't currently warrant a standalone article. MrsSnoozyTurtle 23:45, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- Merge I agree with Snoozy above that a single page is the best option here. It marginally meets NBOOK but the sources I see aren't enough to develop any sort of reasonable article. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 15:23, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- @Liz: Heritage Universe was deleted earlier this year as an expired prod. A proposal to merge stuff into it pretty much amounts to a challenge to the prod (which as you know are automatically restored on request). So imo it should be restored if merge is the decision here. In any case, it is perfectly possible to merge stuff together into an article that does not yet exist. SpinningSpark 12:33, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Summertide, Divergence (novel) and Transcendence (Sheffield novel), and delete Convergence (novel) and Resurgence (novel). The first three have Kirkus and Publishers Weekly reviews which, though the bare minimum, are sufficient to satisfy WP:NB. Resurgence has a PW review but nothing else; I couldn't find anything for Convergence. Unfortunately I think Asilvering's suggestion to group these has made this discussion needlessly complicated (though hopefully not pushed it into WP:TRAINWRECK territory): simply put, if there are sufficient sources for some of these books but not for others, and notability isn't inherited, why shouldn't we delete some of the articles but not others? Creating a new article on the series isn't a viable solution, as that would require significant coverage of the series as a whole, not just individual volumes, which I also haven't been able to find. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 17:00, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- I really don't think it makes sense to delete some and not the others. Given a series of five books, why would we want to have three books covered and two missing? We're supposed to consider alternatives to deletion, and a useful alternative here would be to put all five books in the same article. The reviews we have for the first three are not the kind of in-depth analysis that would lead to much article expansion (assuming anyone even takes up that task in the first place); the articles we would otherwise retain are not meaningfully different from the ones we would delete. -- asilvering (talk) 20:18, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
[W]hy would we want to have three books covered and two missing?
Well, for much the same reason we'd decide to have articles on some topics and not others in any other context: because some are notable and some aren't. You're right, though, that the sourcing is weak enough that merging could still be a good approach – per WP:PAGEDECIDE, "Sometimes, a notable topic can be covered better as part of a larger article". But that larger article still has to be on a notable topic, and I'm not seeing anything indicating that the series is notable – for it to be so, we'd need sources discussing the series, not just its individual volumes. If there was to be a merge, the author's article is the only sensible target. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 18:03, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

- Merge to Lou Harrison as a new section in his article. (Technically, this would be a revert to the state of affairs before June 24.) Having this list at Harrison's article seems sufficient to me. I agree with the nominator that the split is not necessary, especially since there seems to be a lack of sources that assess Harrison's works in list form. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:06, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: Harrison was astoundingly prolific, and the list is potentially expandable to very considerable length. There is certainly no lack of sources, Von Gunden's Music of Lou Harrison having a bulky appendix. I don't see a clear guideline at Wikipedia:WikiProject Classical music, but why would this case be different from featured articles like Percy_Grainger#Music?Sparafucil (talk) 20:03, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep, do not merge. I am fairly unconvinced by the nominator's rationale, which does not cite any guidelines or policy. The rather subjective 'the size of the list is fairly small', fails to convince me when the list in question is 100+ works. Thus, I don't think a list of this many entries belongs in a general biography article for WP, so having a different article seems much more appropriate. Aza24 (talk) 02:54, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- I forgot to type out a distinct policy for my vote, but there are several that are relevant here. Especially WP:NLIST saying that a list topic must be notable in its own right beyond serving as a collection of things; plus WP:NOTCATALOG saying that WP tries to avoid a bare list of items with no surrounding context on why they should be laid out in list form. The moral of this story is that the whole must be greater than the sum of the parts. In conclusion, this gentlemen created a lot of compositions. That's not particularly notable when his existing biographical article already describes his long and successful career. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:28, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep. Both articles are not very small, hence the WP:SPINOUT/WP:SPINOFF was reasonable. Maybe more than size alone, WP:UNDUE was a consideration. Also, let's not start an AfD about every decision someone makes or an argument about every dissenting opinion someone expresses.

There is nothing notable about these two phones. A WP:BEFORE did not give out anything. All I could find was technical specifications on websites which are like catalogues, and cover (or try to cover) literally every mobile that exists. There are some reviews/unboxing videos, but same goes for them. No review by notable reviewer/critic. Just another run-of-the-mill mobile phones that exists.

WP:BLP of a political figure, not reliably sourced as having a strong claim to passing WP:NPOL. The notability claims here are serving on a local council and standing as a non-winning candidate for election to parliament -- but neither local councillors nor unelected legislative candidates get Wikipedia articles on that basis per se, and must show either that they had preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten them into Wikipedia anyway, or that they can be credibly considered to be markedly more notable than most other local councillors or non-winning parliamentary candidates in some way that would pass the ten year test for enduring significance.
But the majority of the footnotes here are primary sourcing that isn't support for notability at all (e.g. the self-published websites of directly affiliated organizations, his own "staff" profiles on the websites of the council and his own day-job employer, raw tables of results from the elections he didn't win), and what little there is for media coverage consists almost entirely of listicles covering multiple people, e.g. all the candidates in the elections he ran in, thus not establishing a reason to deem him as more notable than all the other people covered by the same articles.
There's just nothing "inherently" notable about any of this, and the sourcing isn't solid enough to claim that he passes WP:GNG in lieu of having to pass NPOL. Bearcat (talk) 21:30, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Have researched - seems to be many articles on Jackson Ng. Has a Chinese wikipedia article on him as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.169.26.4 (talk) 11:43, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- His notability is not necessarily established by just any web page you can find that happens to have his name in it. He has to be the subject of a source, not just a person whose words get quoted in an article whose subject is something or somebody else, for that source to help establish his notability — but the overwhelming majority of the new sources you've added to the article are the latter, not the former, and the only source you've added in which Jackson Ng is the subject is a Q&A interview in which he's talking about himself in the first person from a WordPress blog, which is not a notability-clinching source either.

- Keep, appears to meet general notability. Andrevan@ 19:48, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
- Meets general notability on what grounds? GNG is not "count up the footnotes and keep anybody who surpasses an arbitrary number" — GNG tests sources for their depth and the context of what they're covering the person for, and as I noted above the sources here are almost entirely glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage about other things or people, with the only source that's actually about him being a Q&A interview on an unreliable blog. Bearcat (talk) 15:51, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. I'm not convinced by arguments on him having a zhwiki page, because notability requirements differ from one Wikimedia project to another. I did a sample of sources from the page, and I do not believe that what I read makes him notable. SWinxy (talk) 21:27, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

I'm mindful of systemic bias issues at play, but cannot identify any path to notability for this association. I don't think it's a language issue, they just don't seemed to have attained much attention. Passing mentions in Google scholar such as this just stem back to their own materials, so it's not independent and the site is on a blacklist so RS issues as well.

- Keep Notable enough film by a notable director. VickKiang, Cinenacional.com is notable. This has an entry in the dictionary of Argentine films on page 92 (which I can't access but will have several film review quotes) and is a notable director. The articles in his filmography all need improvement but it does meet GNG and I'm sure there were numerous newspaper sources in Argentina with film reviews at the time.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:18, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Dr. Blofeld: Unfortunately, I disagree. IMO, an entry at a database like IMDB and a dictionary entry are not significant enough. Per WP:FILM guidelines, the film has to have two significant, reliable refs, won a major award, or is re released five years after, I don't see this here, but this is an interesting film. But I can change my mind if you can find Argentine refs, but right now, I am still agreeing per nom on weak delete. Many thanks, please ping me when you find more refs, and thanks for your work! VickKiang (talk) 21:46, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
@VickKiang: Did I say just a database source was enough? No. I said Cinenacional is a notable database and mentioned the entry in the definitive book on Argentine films.♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:04, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Dr. Blofeld: Thanks for your help and comments on my vote, but I still disagree. Even if it's a "definitive book" (evidence?), only a brief mention isn't enough; per WP:FILM,
Examples of coverage insufficient to fully establish notability include newspaper listings of screening times and venues, "capsule reviews", plot summaries without critical commentary, or listings in comprehensive film guides such as Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide, Time Out Film Guide, or the Internet Movie Database
, I think the dictionary is a "capsule review", but if it's longer than a lengthy paragraph, IMO that's one notable ref, but could you please insert more info in article if you have access. And the database? It's probably high-profile and reliable enough (this I agree), but it's not signiicant. The ad-like WP article says that (though there isn't a citation)Cinenacional.com is a web portal and web-based database about Argentine cinema. The site provides a vast array of information, including films, television programs, directors, actors, cinematographers, film editors, production designers, and other production professions in Argentina. It is the most comprehensive site for information about the film industry in the country, and has over 30.000 IMDb-type articles on films alone in its database, from the silent film era onwards
; based on "most comprehensive site" and "over 30,000 IMDB-type articles", I consider it to be maybe reliable, but it's not significant enough, as it only lists basic info on release and actors for almost all films (like IMDB), so I still stand by my vote of deleting. Many thanks for your help and advice! VickKiang (talk) 08:41, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

Liz Sorry but the consensus is clearly keep on this. No idea why you relisted it again.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:57, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Honestly, Dr. Blofeld, to cover my ass. I have found my decisions to "Keep" articles (and "No consensus", too) are more frequently challenged at Deletion Review than decisions to "Delete" articles. So, I like to see a solid consensus to Keep an article, along with good rationales, to close a discussion as Keep. And I don't think I'm alone in this among admins patrolling AFDs, if you look at a page of a day's AFDs, discussions with a clear Delete consensus are closed faster than those with a mix of viewpoints or those with a deletion nomination and Keeps. And if my honesty leads to an appearance at a noticeboard, please include other admins who join me closing AFD discussions because I don't think I'm alone here. Liz Read!

- It might be an interesting exercise for some tech person to track admins who close deletion discussions and see which ones tend to close discussions as "Delete" while there are others who tend to take on more complicated cases and have a more balanced record (Keep/Delete/No Consensus/Redirect/Merge) for AFD closures.

A series of references to his home page and to blog entries does not a notable subject make. No corresponding article exists on the Portuguese Wikipedia, a search for sources turns up about 200 hits under Google News, none of which appears to contain in-depth discussion of the subject that I could read in English. A loose necktie (talk) 02:40, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- It is because Yuri is a Conservative writer. If he was a Leftist one, there would be an article about him in the Portuguese Wikipedia...
- The same with Rodrigo Gurgel, a literary critic. I wrote an article about him TWO times, full with references. They deleted it.
- The Portuguese Wikipedia is ideology-oriented, not reality-oriented.
- Note: the three publishers (Record, Vide, José Olympio) are some of the biggest in Brazil. Gondolabúrguer (talk) 02:49, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- The "size" of the organizations that publish his works is not the issue. What matters is significant discussion of him in reliable published verifiable independent sources-- if you aren't able to provide them here, then that suggests you aren't able to provide them for the Portuguese Wikipedia; if you can't provide them here (we accept Portuguese references, though I don't speak Portuguese), then there is little wonder there is no article on him there (and not for political reasons, but for policy reasons). This then further undermines your claim that he is notable, and the politicization argument ends up holding no water. If you are claiming that he would have sources in Portuguese if the leftist Portuguese press would just cover him, that argument won't stand up real well here either. We need independent reliable published sources, in any language, that discuss the subject in depth in order to host an article on him. Nothing more, and nothing less. Nothing he wrote about himself, no blog entries, but actual coverage in other people's published works. A loose necktie (talk) 11:50, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- "His main book, A Tragicomédia Acadêmica – Contos Imediatos do Terceiro Grau (en: The College Tragicomedy: direct short stories from the third degree), was praised by writers Bruno Tolentino, Millôr Fernandes, Lygia Fagundes Telles, Olavo de Carvalho and Ryoki Inoue."
- Source about the authors: https://yurivieira.com/#aboutus
- These are five major writers in Brazil. You can check their articles.
- Also: you do not read in Portuguese, right? So please translate the source above to English so that you can confirm what I wrote.

- Delete. Complete lack of sources that are reliable, independent and in-depth. The offer by Gondolabúrguer of https://yurivieira.com/#aboutus is ridculous as evidence of notability. It is Vieira himself claiming other authors have said nice things about him in quotes from unpubished private communications. Pretty much a masterclass in material we can't use. Gondolabúrguer also says they have added two new sources. The Estadão source merely replaced a Facebook cite and is a routine announcement about the Oceanos award. In any case, Vieira did not win this award, he did not even place, so I don't see how this is significant coverage. I don't see any cite added from Gazeta do Povo on or near 6 July as claimed. One Gazeta cite is a blog by Rodrigo Constantino which says nothing more than he read Vieira's books and enjoyed them. It says nothing at all about Vieira himself so even if we take Constantino's blog as reliable (dubious), it adds nothing to notability of Vieira. The other Gazeta cite is an opinion column by Flavio Gordon which likewise says little about the author himself, and incidentally, fails to verify the sentence it is attached to. If you want to convince me, link here to two (and only two) reliable independent sources that discuss the author in depth. SpinningSpark 14:30, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

Many of the references to VMoC are from 1990s websites and are not necessarily on the web today. —Jonathan Bowen (talk) 12:33, 2 July 2022 (UTC)- 1) In https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_museum#Online_pioneers_(web-based_sites_established_before_2000) , the the reference to your statement ("one of the first virtual museums"), is on a website/article written by you. Also cannot find any source regarding the support by International Council of Museums.

- ICOM has "more than 40,000 members from 141 countries and territories" which does not confer notability in any way. It's also a professional network museums apply to, not recognition that is granted in the general sense.

- I think you are misreading GOOGLETEST. A large number of ghits suggests that something might be notable, but one still needs to find sources in amongst those results that support WP:GNG. Being cited by a book is not evidence of notability, it's just a passing mention. It is not the in-depth discussion required by GNG. You claim that the site was notable in the 1990s, but that claim needs to be verifiable now. All the sources that we can access now are passing or trivial mentions. 1990s sources are still good now if they were reliable, but if they were never archived anywhere or print copies exist, then it is impossible to verify even in principle. We don't necessarily need to be able to access sources online, but it needs to be possible to access them somehow so we can prove that there is indeed in-depth discussion there or to resolve any dispute over the facts the source is supposed to be a cite for.

Thanks for inviting me to add to this discussion. All I can say is that I wouldn't have created the article if I hadn't found it worthy of inclusion. The fact that there seems to be little secondary material on the novel does not necessarily mean that this is going to stay that way. Wikipedia, as I understand it, is a forward-looking project. <KF> 14:37, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- It's probably fair to say we've become a lot less forward-looking, for better or worse, since this article was created in 2003. The argument that sources will exist in the future is generally thought to be unconvincing in deletion discussions (though, in the event such a prediction comes true, the article can always be restored with those new sources). – Arms & Hearts (talk) 16:46, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Needs some reviews from reliable sources to stay, or some independent discussion of its development and impact. Those are completely absent and a WP:BEFORE search failed to find anything substantial, just a few passing mentions in borderline sources. SpinningSpark 15:17, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- (Selectively) merge. The only substantial coverage in reliable sources I was able to find was this review by Chris Atton in Counterpoise. One or two more sources like that would probably be sufficient, but there doesn't seem to be anything; the Calcutt and Shepard book cited in the article seems (going off Google Books snippet view) to mention Home but not specifically Cunt. Still, the novel can certainly be covered in a sentence or two, citing Atton, at Stewart Home#Books. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 16:21, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete/Redirect I wasn't able to find many refs that meet GNG; the article is also completely unsourced with OR. This ref is of the question; it covers the plagiarism controversies, and there's the line
His latest novel, Cunt, had been turned down by numerous publishers--apparently for its title--until it found a home with the London-based radical publisher, Do-Not Press. Even then, a number of printers refused to print the book, again due to its title
, but I am not sure how reliable it is or whether it's significant enough, so merging is problematic; the article's poor plot summary and OR also to me isn't the best for merging. So IMO redirecting or deleting is the best. VickKiang (talk) 00:44, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Sources 7 and 8 are from California Globe, which is considered generally unreliable, sources 4 and 6 only mention him, a source 9 is a podcast that also only motions him during a brief segment.

- Nobody has taken the time to properly integrate sources into the article, but they're out there. Pageantsfan (talk) 19:45, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- I suppose I should go through all of these sources one by one, but from the titles, they don't look great. For instance I did take a quick gander at "Mrs. Utah - Teen Suicide Prevention Initiative" is unsurprisingly about the Utah contestant and her teen suicide prevention initiative. Not about this pageant the notability of which we are discussing. Maybe I should throw the ball back to you and ask you which you think are the top two about the pageant. ☆ Bri (talk) 02:07, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, I suppose you should do that (go through all of these sources one by one) and should have done that and updated the article's sources to improve the article before jumping to deletion. A "quick gander" at titles is not sufficient. I see the first one on the list is about the pageant with a considerable controversy. When I see a long list of articles about previous winners in a variety of news outlets, some of which are articles that discuss the pageant as well as the winners, that tells me there is also wide coverage. I have made my vote and ask that you do not harass me to change my vote. Pageantsfan (talk) 16:04, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Since this is essentially an event run by a commercial organization, the appropriate guideline is WP:NCORP. I've looked at the curated list provided by Pageantsfan above and it looks to me to focus either on the contestants (past and present) and their "causes" or opinions or is based on PR/Announcements. Most of the references have no "Independent Content" as per WP:ORGIND as the content is provided by affiliated sources and the rest fail WP:CORPDEPTH as trivial content.

- @MurielMary: I disagree. Prior AfDs have used Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roxanne Allison Baeyens as an expression of community resistance to considering winning a national pageant in and of itself evidence of notability. For instance Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ysabel Bisnath the decision in the prior AfD was the basis for deletion. In any event there is no SNG for beauty pageants, and we shouldn't behave as if there is one. In fact there is strong evidence that consensus exists winning a national pageant does not confer notability. The subject would have to stand on their own per WP:ANYBIO. ☆ Bri (talk) 17:01, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

This is a disambiguation page that isn't really a disambiguation page. "Atrocities in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine" is not a very plausible search term; the only similarly-titled content page is Atrocities in the Congo Free State, an article about a case where "atrocities" is a term in widespread canonical use by academics. Here, of the 5 articles linked, 2 (Allegations of child abductions in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine and Sexual violence in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine) do not use the words "atrocity" or "atrocities" at all, and a third (Torture in Ukraine) does not use it in the context of the 2022 invasion, meaning that all 3 fail MOS:DABMENTION and thus Wikipedia:Original research. Of the remaining two, Claims of genocide of Ukrainians in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine is a subtopic of War crimes in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, so I don't think anything needs to be disambiguated here. Delete or redirect to War crimes article. If there is a higher-level article to be written on the topic than the War crimes article (at this title or, perhaps better, a title like Human rights during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine), it should be written as a proper article, not a DAB trying to do the work of an article. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 21:47, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

Weak Keep. Weak because it's art magazines rather than new York Times etc, but still seems notable on a small scale, as per:
- https://www.southwestart.com/events/efa-aug2014 (not a fantastic source, could lack independence)
- http://voyagedenver.com/interview/conversations-inspiring-kathy-beekman/ (an interview, not ideal)

- So basically I've got one piece of significant coverage in Southwest Art. I'm assuming it's a reliable source. And a bunch of less significant coverage which I am arguing adds up to notability. I know this is not the strongest argument, it's one of those borderline cases. CT55555 (talk) 11:37, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - My guess is the article is either a promotional effort WP:PROMO by her gallery, or it is indeed an autobiography due to the excessive personal details in the article. Most of the article is sourced to her own book, "Prosper: A Success Book for Artists". Re: the refs above that CT55555 kindly researched in a BEFORE, Citation 1 is not an article, it's a press release for her show embellished with content from the artist's page at Evergreen Gallery.[11]; It does not count as a review of her work. Not independent. Citation 2 is an interview, primary source, not independent, doesn't count toward notability. Citation 3 reads like a preview profile for an upcoming show - again a modified press release or taken from her website - I'm not sure that it is a critical/analytical review of her work since it was released a month before the show took place (native advertising?) Citation 4, this too is advertorial content IMO, and the mentions or calendar items (6, 7) do not help matters. Citation 5 is a primary source, she and someone with the same last name drew the illustrations, it's not a review about her illustration work. She has had shows, but that is just what 100's of thousands of artists do WP:MILL, I can find nothing that distinguishes her as a notable artist who is widely recognized and made a contribution to a enduring historical record in her field. There is a lack of independent SIGCOV over a period of time; there is no content in art history books, critical/analytical reviews, notable museum collections.

- @CT55555, thank you for your thoughtful question. I considered #3 quite a bit before writing my thoughts above, since it did seem like the best of the bunch. The reason why I think it is an embellished press-release or native advertising - a preview of an "emerging artist" - is that it was written for the November 2008 issue of Southwest Art, but the show did not even happen until Dec. 22, 2008 – January 1, 2009. It's advertising for a future event. The commercial art world is a industry that showcases, promotes and sells art. Previews like this can boost sales and galleries (and artist) are very much aware of this. Commercial galleries that purchase regular advertising with art magazines are often "thanked" by the publication by such native advertising whether paid for placement or not. It's actually quite a common practice, no cynicism involved, it's just a reality of the industry. One must remember that galleries are essentially stores that sell art instead of pillowcases. Whereas museums and non-profit art spaces are educational institutions. There is not a speck of art historical critical analysis in this "article" other than to state her work is "reminiscent of Edward Hopper". The "article" is primarily about her childhood and student experiences; to my mind it's not serious art criticism at all. Even if it were, one source is not enough to pass GNG or NARTIST. Hope that helps to understand where my comments are coming from! Netherzone (talk) 00:01, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

- Wherether ALK should be deleted or not is off topic. I recommend we follow the advice of the essay WP:WHATABOUT and concentrate if this article should exist. The presence of reliable, independent sources with significant sources should be what informs us. WP:GNG contains guidance on that. I also don't think it has been established if she met notability guidelines in the past or not, but the key thing is if she does today. If you want this kept, you can immediately persuade me. I would be delighted to say "keep". I just need to see a few reliable and independent sources with significant coverage. Share that here and I'll be the biggest fan of keeping this. CT55555 (talk) 15:29, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- Here are some independent sources for your consideration:
- The Kindness Think Tank podcast, 2021 - Interview with JT
- JT listed among Forbes 50 Leading Female Futurists
- JT Interviewed by Femme Futurists (as was ALK)
- D/Construct by Doner interview
- JT was the expert guest on a Dr. Phil show about trends (trailer [1]) and more of interview on her speaker reel [2]
- JT receiving Global Award for Brand Excellence from the World Brand Congress in Mumbai 2009
I would also like to note that many of the original source links for the JT article disappeared over time and were cleaned up. It seems that to rely solely on what is online at the present time for a person who has been on Wiki for decades is doing a disservice to both Wikipedia and the person in question. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Delcydrew (talk • contribs) 20:19, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

- There is a Variety article about the Penske acquisition here: [12] that could be used to support a redirect with a better citation if that is the outcome. I didn't see much else substantive from Variety in covering Gold Derby, which leads me to think the redirect will be the best outcome -- pending if others find more sources. matt91486 (talk) 11:29, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

I've just posted on WT:MUSIC about how so many musical artists "List of awards and nominations received by <artist>" pages list Gold Derby Music Awards alongside Grammys, BRIT awards, BET Awards, Mercury Prize and other awards from legitimate music awards organisations. Perhaps people consider them to be legitimate awards, because there is a Gold Derby wikipedia page with a Music Awards section, but it appears that all the references to the Gold Derby Music Awards and Gold Derby Film Awards on the Gold Derby page, come from the goldderby.com site itself.

Article on a child who died when she was about six years age who did nothing of note during her life. There are no sources.

- Keep. Doing some WP:BEFORE-style searches in Ebsco, newspaperarchive, and gbooks found sources, with a selection below. The good reason to have this article is there are many sources that have written about her over decades.
- From Google Books: *[13] has passing mentions, including mentioning that there was a postcard of her, and has a theory that she is Apache Kid's biological daughter
- a blog-y post but by a reliable person and magazine mentioning that theory/her [14])
- a significant write-up of her and her story in Wild West magazine: Apache May, a warrior's young daughter, lived an all-too-short life with John Slaughter.
- For older newspapers, it does seem like she was a popular subject to include see
- "Arizona Album: Sheriff Slaughter's wife and Apache May" a seemly syndicated news blurb about her, this time in the Tucson Daily Citizen
- "True Story of Apache Girl Captured from Indians Wins First Prize in Essay Contest"
- "Patch", A True Story of a Little Wild Life Being an Aftermath of the Apache Raid of 1896.
- "Tombstone the Ghost Town Comes to Life Once More" Salt Lake Tribune story from 1929, with a few paragraphs/photo of her
- And another journal article with enough passing mentions to be worth looking at: CORA VIOLA HOWELL SLAUGHTER: Southern Arizona Ranchwoman from The Journal of Arizona History.
- Anyone is welcome (of course) to use these to expand the article and I'll be able to when I have time to cite and parse through this more. Skynxnex (talk) 19:05, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. I originated this article, and in cases like these, I always vote keep. Also, as Skynxnex says, there are sufficient sources to demonstrate her own independent notability. Some may, no pun intended, claim her only claim is being the daughter of so and so, but then, that is the case with many others like for example Chelsea Clinton and Malia Obama, and no one is deleting their articles. Antonio Keep me, keep me pleasseeee! Martin (que paso?) 23:29, 15 July, 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Her story is told in a fair amount of detail in two books Captive Arizona, 1851-1900 ISBN 0803210906 and The Apache Wars ISBN 0770435823, the former published by a university press. Marshall Trimble, the official state historian of Arizona, discusses her in True West magazine. SpinningSpark 07:20, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep To augment the above searches, I searched on newspapers.com. There were 275 articles. The earliest I found was from 1896, the most recent was 2017. These provide significant coverage spanning more than a century! While I might consider sympathizing with an editor who perhaps may be unaware of or perhaps rejects policy WP:NEXIST (and therefore also rejects policy WP:CONSENSUS) because the article does not cite any sources, NEXIST clearly specifies that an article is considered notable based on the availability of sources, not on whether the article actually uses them. The existence of suitable sources is eminently provable here, in newspaper articles for well over 100 years, in books, and more. This subject meets GNG, hundreds of times over, but the article itself is in desperate need of improvement. Deletion is not cleanup, so my sympathy would mean nothing, and we must keep the article and ask the nominator to remember that although they might disagree with the policy, if they don't believe in the policy they should work to gain consensus to change the policy rather than attempting to subvert the policy with spurious deletion nominations.

- Keep -- I do not see what is wrong with this article. It would have been better if the footnotes had been translated as well as the article text. The author presumably called himself Richard Angel. This may have been a pseudonym; if so, the question is for whom. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:55, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks. I've changed German "band" to English "vol." and generally brought them more in line with an English footnote style. Is that what you had in mind with translating footnotes? I'm inclined to leave the titles as they are so the original source can be found.
- If it was a pseudonym, it's an open question in the scholarship. Medieval and early modern alchemical texts are notoriously difficult in this way.
- CarolineHealeyDall (talk) 21:00, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- What? No, he would not have called himself "Richard Angel". Ricardus Anglicus means "Richard the Englishman". -- asilvering (talk) 03:33, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep as there seems to be something to write about this character, even if it's only to discuss who might have written various influential texts on alchemy. It doesn't need to be converted to a disambig since there are currently only two Ricardus/Richardus Anglicus to differentiate (hatnotes are sufficient) and one has not yet been translated anyway. But the earlier doctor really does need translating! Elemimele (talk) 21:15, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Hi fellow editor, you'll recall Wiki etiquette rules around assuming good faith and maintaining civility. Constructive criticism on how to improve articles will get us further in this joint endeavour than attacking an editor's perceived understanding (or perceived lack thereof).
- When the discussion concludes am happy to update article to address your/the community's concerns, bring out RA's importance, and/or make whatever changes this vote decides (for example, the disambig suggestion given below). (Or give space for someone else to make those changes.)
- Finally, Caroline Healey Dall is an historical figure (a fantastically interesting one, see her wiki article!). "They" will serve in the absence of info about my gender. Thanks. CarolineHealeyDall (talk) 21:21, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Indeed, this appears to fail WP:GNG and WP:NAUTHOR. Right now it has two sources; the second is not about him, but rather about the Correctorium alchimiae. It is possible that that is notable, but its author does not appear to pass either relevant guideline. In my own search, I am mostly turning up passing mentions, all related to the Correctorium alchimiae. I'm extremely skeptical of the claim
He was considered among the leading English alchemists of the period
- by whom? There are two Ricardus Anglicus in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography: the physician doi:10.1093/ref:odnb/74815 and the canon lawyer doi:10.1093/ref:odnb/23518. I don't think the ODNB would have missed out on someone who is "considered among the leading alchemists of the period". Especially given the dispute over who this could possibly be, and whether the name was entirely pseudonymous, delete. The appropriate article on a relevant topic might be Correctorium alchimiae, but I haven't established notability for that yet either. -- asilvering (talk) 04:41, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- I'd be very sympathetic to a redirect to Correctorium alchimiae if we had it, but unfortunately we don't. Perhaps there's a case for doing a re-write to convert the article into one about the book, using the material on Ricardus as a section on authorship? Elemimele (talk) 08:56, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- I would happily put together a stub on the book if someone were to find some accessible sources that demonstrate a clear WP:NBOOK pass. I would not recommend using the material on Ricardus in this article as a section on authorship because it is not as clearly verifiable as it should be (for eg, it lists authors but not the specific book, let alone page numbers - and at least one of the sources is over 100 years old, not great for manuscript studies or history of science stuff). Whatever we do, it can't be a redirect directly from "Richardus Anglicus", since by far the most common expectation of people searching this name will be to find one of the other two. Turning up a different Richardus Anglicus might be confusing, but being redirected immediately to a book on alchemy when you were expecting the physician is definitely confusing and possibly misleading (the two are close enough professions that one might assume they're the same person). We'd need to make this title a disamb page. -- asilvering (talk) 21:30, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- In which case the logical thing to do would be to translate the other Richardus page too. I'm happy to have a go, but I doubt I'll have time today, and I don't want to rush a rubbish machine translation. I'd rather do it by hand and get it right, and check the refs if I can while I'm at it. Once we've got a couple, this article could turn into a disambiguation page between a stub on the alchemy book and the earlier medic, if there's agreement. I don't personally have problems about 100-year-old paper sources; they may not be the latest scholarship, but until someone comes up with something better, they are the state of human knowledge, which it is our duty to summarise.

I will submit it for review, and wait the normal three months before it's inevitably rejected, and then weep silently into my pillow.

It's interesting, and a good reflection on WP policies, that our modern standards of notability can be applied successfully to these distant historical figures; the medical Ricardus would undoubtedly have passed as an academic and author in his day (held in esteem by his peers, and widely-copied author), and notability is permanent. I hope people add to both Ricardus articles. Elemimele (talk) 08:49, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. Although the subject has notable family members, notability is not inherited. WP:RS-compliant sourcing that covers the subject herself in-depth is needed to pass the notability threshold, and it is woefully lacking here.

United States: University of North Carolina Press. I viewed it though google books, so could only see a few sentences on each side of her name, but it's lots of information about her advocacy, environmentalism, and seems clearly significant coverage.

- Keep per WP:GNG/WP:BASIC - I can view full pages of The Wild and the Toxic, and the available preview at pp. 27-31 includes in-depth career and biographical information. Based on the notes section at pp. 144-145, some of the content appears based on an interview with Salzman, but also other documentation, and includes further detail about her career. Part of her career is also discussed in-depth in Ecological Politics, including at pp. 103-104 (pp. 105-106 are not available in the preview), 108, 116. In The New Crusaders at pp. 104-105, one of her statements against nuclear power is critiqued, while another statement is quoted and discussed more positively in Free Enterprise Environmentalism at p. 48. More biographical and career information is available in Newcomers: Gentrification and Its Discontents at 34. She is also more than quoted in Mother Jones Magazine - Nov 1986, in a lengthy article "The Forest for the Trees" that places her quotes in the context of her work as an environmental activist. In the preview page available at p. 253 in The Invention of Brownstone Brooklyn, some of her Brooklyn-based activism is discussed. She is also quoted with context in Earth Follies: Feminism, Politics and the Environment at p. 324. In these sources, her husband is occasionally mentioned, but it seems clear she has independent notability as an activist for several causes that is supported by independent and reliable secondary sources, and the article can be further developed.

("U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 1st DISTRICT" 3 Nov 2002). She also published an essay collection "Politics as if Evolution Mattered: Darwin, Ecology, and Social Justice" (via Gale) and has had writings published in various journals, e.g. BioScience (JSTOR), (JSTOR), Science News (JSTOR), Conservation Biology (JSTOR), Business and Society Review and the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists (WP Library).

The result was no consensus. The discussion suggests that there are hints of notability here and there, but no clear-cut evidence has been found; conversely, while the nominator's argument is strong, it has not received explicit additional support. I would recommend finding editors who are able to evaluate any sources in Hebrew, and bringing the article back to AfD if they do not prove substantive. Vanamonde (Talk) 21:07, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

Subject fails WP:COMPOSER, GNG, and ANYBIO. The citations are either catalogs including her work or mere mentions that she was a composer. (Google doesn't give me the best preview of the printed books, so I could be mistaken.) Per WP:BKTS her correspondence being archived doesn't make her notable; not even the correspondence is notable.

- I’m puzzled by the suggestion that this article be deleted. When music is published, musicians want information about the composer to inform their performance and include in concert program notes. In addition, Paul Ben-Haim is a well-know composer and any correspondence with him, particularly if archived in the National Library of Israel, is of interest. You may want to actually read the printed books for more information.

- I can read JSTOR with my Wikipedia subscription. Only one article mentions her. As not in a book. It did not state that she was important, just the fact that she was missing as part of the reviewer's thought process on two composers who would not collaborate with a book reviewed. Lets concentrate on this Cohen reference. Do you have access to it? How many words/sentences are there about Miriam Shatal? gidonb (talk) 18:10, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- T. E. Meeks, a lot of the information that you dug up from internet sources is wrong. For example, she did not die in 1983 (also the national library claims this) and probably lived until the ripe age of 102 or 103. If I can make a really wild guess, she had sent some files to the national library of Israel in 1983, some archivist gathered that she must have died (which is a common point in time to receive a personal archive) and wrote 1983, when she was very much alive, as her year of death, and others copied this. gidonb (talk) 18:55, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Less Unless (talk) 19:59, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Actually, the quote in Fontes Artis Musicae DOES establish Shatal’s importance: “In all, sixty-three composers are considered, though she mentions that two other unidentified composers declined inclusion. It would have been interesting to know which two declined, for a few missing names do present themselves: Emanuel Amiran-Pougatchov, Max Brod, Mary Evan-or, Miriam Shatal, and Michael Taube, to name a few.” T. E. Meeks (talk) 19:13, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
- So what word or short phrase that refers to Shatal says she is important??? Having looked for sources, I agree with the nominator that Shatal fails WP:COMPOSER. I am open to the option that the totality of her activities in the visual arts, music, and community service pulls her over the line -- the prize she won is some indication in that direction -- but I would need to see clear proof for WP:GNG or WP:ANYBIO, as we do not work by WP:SOURCESMUSTEXIST! gidonb (talk)

- Comment I looked for Dutch sources on "Jannie Pinkhof" or "Jannie Spangenthal", and found very little: she appears in a family photo https://www.joodsmonument.nl/nl/page/181268/marianne-jeannette-pinkhof-oppenheim and there is an announcement of her engagement to Spangenthal (note the different spelling without the h), in the Algemeen Handelsblad of February 2, 1925.

- Weak Keep - Nobody has actually cast a vote yet after all these weeks, and I don't know if this one helps too much. Per the plea in the last re-listing, I think the presence of biographical information makes a difference because Ms. Shatal does have some reliable notice as a composer. That should be enough for a basic stub article. As others have noted, a search for the Hebrew version of her name (מרים שתל ) leads to many results but I do not read that language. If anyone with the proper skills wants to volunteer, more useful info may be available in those sources. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 18:40, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Don't take away from your ACHIEVEMENT by starting pointless discussions with both opinionators, who basically agree with you! I see the awards as an indication of notability. Coverage would be proof.

It has a very important role in the education of Darwinians and many from else where in the Northern Territory who board. However, I agree that it needs sources. --Bduke (talk) 07:18, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- Weak Delete. NT News, which its WP article says is a
a morning tabloid newspaper based in Darwin
, has some refs (1, 2, 3), but it's probably not reliable enough, there was also a passing mention on 9 News (1). There's also a book here, but there's no info on its publisher, so it might be be self-published, I don't see how this is an RS. So there's certainly coverage, but the refs are either too brief are not that reliable; still, I don't think the local tabloid is sensationalising simple info on a school, but whether it counts towards GNG is of question, so I am probably at weak delete (if more refs are found I would probably be at neutral or weak keep).

- Delete The standard for all organizations including schools is not GNG, it is organizational notability. This institution does not meet the standards of that requirement.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:57, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- That is false. In the notability guideline, under WP:NSCHOOL it states "All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both. For-profit educational organizations and institutions are considered commercial organizations and must satisfy those criteria. (See also WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES)". This is a state college, so the standard is WP:GNG. Jacona (talk) 01:31, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Meets WP:GNG. Contrary to the bizarre comment above, if an article meets GNG then it meets notability standards. SNGs may reduce or clarify notability standards, but they never increase the threshold. Even WP:NSCHOOL says this. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:14, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

- He didn’t even acknowledge the following article’s AfD on my talk page.Eesan1969 (talk) 07:31, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Eesan1969: I’ve previously encountered the nom in a discussion, and we disagreed, but I agree with his COI tag. The article is not as bad to warrant G11, but it’s ad like, such as this:
AFIN was set up with the mission to facilitate innovation and cooperation between financial institutions and FinTechs, in an effort to digitally transform the banking and financial sectors across the ASEAN region and beyond to ultimately drive financial inclusion.
Note the ad like words innovation, ultimately, and transform, if this is the company’s POV, probably rm this is needed. I think the nom probably made a mistake with notifying the AfD, but I agree with this point that you made. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 22:01, 18 July 2022 (UTC)- @VickKiang: Thanks for your comment. If the wordings are too promotional, some experienced editor might have corrected it after the Advert tag, no need to tag Undisclosed Paid. In fact, after I have created the page, the management of the Application Programming Interface Exchange contacted me via email, and asked me to delete the page; I have forwarded the whole email communication to ArbCom.

- User:Eesan1969, as User:scope_creep states, my comment above is not an endorsement of keeping or deleting this article, just a statement that another editors comment was incorrect. I generally prefer to avoid inserting myself into discussions on the notability of subjects in Australia, since I'm not a resident and because it is an English speaking country with a large contingent of English speakers who should be able to take care of themselves. That way hopefully it will be tended to by people who have a clue as to what they are talking about and the means to find sources relevant to subjects relating to their country.

The mentions and descriptions of this game would be in tabletop wargaming magazines. Unfortunately I do not have the issues, but I can tell you this game was a key game in the formulative years of mini-figure wargaming. I searched eBay but was unable to find aa magazine auction that mentioned a review of the game, but I am positive they exist in magazines such as "Wargamer", "Europa", "The Courier", "Wargamer's Digest", "Campaign", "Miniature Wargames", "Wargames Illustrated", "Fire & Movement", "Paper War", "Military Modelling", "Wargames Soldiers & Strategy", "Moves", "Boardgame Journal", CounterAttack" and others.

- Since a couple of sources have been found I'm striking my delete vote. Sam Walton (talk) 03:05, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I am also nervous of deleting this based only on a search for online sources. Radical Mallard is right: it is absolutely guaranteed that this game will only have been written-about in paper magazines, because of its nature, and the time it was produced. It is also highly likely that such sources exist. We should not go deleting just because we don't have those magazines at our fingertips. Elemimele (talk) 20:41, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- I understand the nervousness and it would be great if we could find some digitised archives for those magazines. I took a quick look on archive.org and found this brief description of the 4th edition of the game in Craft, Model, and Hobby Industry Magazine. Sam Walton (talk) 21:48, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- It’s an interesting source, but to count towards significant coverage needs one lengthy paragraph, I don’t think this meets the mark yet. VickKiang (talk) 21:52, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- IMO the line
it is absolutely guaranteed that this game will only have been written-about in paper magazines
probably needs more evidence to support it. I also tried to search BGG for awards and links, and it also didn’t list any there.

- Comment Yes, today this is an obscure set of rules, even in the HO wargaming world, because it has been superseded by many other sets of rules. But those new sets of rules are all based in some way on the groundword laid down by Angriff!. Back in the 1960s, this was the original set of rules that every WW2 HO and micro armor wargamer used. The question is not "Is this obscure today?' but "Has this always been obscure?" I believe the answer to that is no. Guinness323 (talk) 19:02, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment @Guinness323: Still, I am uncertain about this. It's obscure definitely not (maybe it was popular then, but I wasn't born in the 1970s, so couldn't comment), but I still don't think it meets GNG. I couldn't access ref 1, but is it just a rules overview (if so, it isn't significant). Ref 2 is probably unreliable and is a model website; ref 3 appears to be not significant. I definitely feel that ref 5 is IMO counting towards GNG, but don't agree with keeping still. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 22:40, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Notability appears met by current references, we're all aware this predates the era of internet reviews so source searching is hampered, and no one is making any current profit off of this. Merging to an article on classic miniatures rules wouldn't be a horrible outcome either, but there's no need to delete this just because the online sources aren't comparable to what we'd see on a current game. Jclemens (talk) 20:53, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

But I still stand by my weak delete vote, the current refs (no more have been added) have a single ref counting to GNG, and notability doesn't seem to be met. Do other editors voting keep consider ref 1 and 3 to be SIGCOV (from what I can see, these, at best, mentions this game trivially)?

Non-notable business. Sources cited are obits of the founder, and while they might contribute towards his notability, they don't towards the company's.

- Keep How can the company not be notable when the produce of the company is covered extensively across basically every article about a UK national or local election? Their produce is covered extensively in UK newspapers and mentioned frequently on UK broadcast news, the fact that an article didn't already exist was shocking to me. The company has significant influence on the politics of the UK but there shouldn't be an article on who owns the company or the methods the company uses to produce their surveys?
- Does the article need more work? Absolutely.
- Are the majority of the sources about the founder rather than the organisation he founded? Absolutely.
- Do I intend to expand the article when I have the time to find more and better sources? Absolutely. AlistairMcMillan (talk) 09:20, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- Per WP:ORGSIG, no organisation is inherently notable. And even if this company's services were notable (which hasn't been shown), notability is not inherited.

"A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" and "No subject is automatically or inherently notable merely because it exists: the evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition" apply here - the company's data may be widely used, but is the company itself inherently notable?

- commentThe are bags of survey companies; all their product contributes to the general news mill. If special weight was given to the results given by this company that would be an anrgument for notability, but this is not the case.TheLongTone (talk) 13:25, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Notability requires the company to be discussed in depth in reliable sources. A company's product being widely used does not establish notability. That might sound strange, but that's the way it works on Wikipedia. It most especially does not establish notability by being used on Wikipedia because Wikipedia itself is not considered a reliable source. Moving to draft is only beneficial if substantial sources exist, and at the moment there is no evidence of that. SpinningSpark 10:07, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Poorly-sourced stub on a non-notable priest.

- Comment -- We have normally allowed articles on archdeacons, probably because many had articles in old DNB. The sourcing is in fact adequate (though not good). The question is whether we should allow them as a matter of course. The position is perhaps less important than it was historically, becasue most dioceses have a suffrigan bishop, when formerly they did not. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:30, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

- Lean keep. I haven't done a deep dive into the Persian sources, but they seem to involve some small degree of in-depth coverage and context for the subject's career and background. It looks like a borderline case, but I think over the line. And as the nomination does not offer a more particularized and specific argument for why the sourcing is inadequate, my read is that it is collectively up to snuff, if far from amazing in quality.

Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 11:32, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- However, an interim/acting VC/president/etc. has a fundamentally different process of appointment than a substantive VC; most critically it lacks the committee vetting, selectivity, interviews, and full board approval that made holding the position an inclusion criterion in the first place. See the strict process for appointment of substantive VCs outlined by the Universities (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2003, and compare that to the temporary appointment-by-fiat by the governor in the case of Osadolor (and others). Moreover, there has been a crisis identified specifically in Nigerian universities, also outlined here by former VC and distinguished professor Ayodeji Olukoju, regarding VC appointments that should give some pause when considering even permanent positions for C6. Of course those issues can and do arise in any country, but it seems this has been a significant, well-reported, and widespread problem in Nigeria recently. JoelleJay (talk) 18:10, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

Delete or Redirect to Habiganj Bazar Railway Station. As nom pointed out, this is a word-for-word duplication of the other article. I also have concerns about the factual accuracy of both articles. They claim the line is closed but refer to the stations as active, and both articles use both names. Unclear to me which is the correct one.

- The user has this type of copy-pasting habit. This is not their first, they did this same thing numerous time on bnwiki from IP and from other accounts. I am tired of cleaning their mess on bnwiki, i even mass semi-protected 100+ articles. Anyway, my prediction is they will do the same copy-pasting for other railway stations too. E.g. see Draft:Habiganj Court Railway Station, Draft:Balla Railway Station (99.9% same text). Other than some passing mentions, most of the railway stations do not have significant coverage. So, for this or any other railway station, created by this user, i will say keep the major station (if there is SIGCOV) and redirect others to Akhaura–Kulaura–Chhatak line or Habiganj Bazar–Shaistaganj–Balla line.

Press releases and advertorials are the gruel presented here for notability, in particular the 'Birth of an Icon' piece in a paid-for placement. Quite apart from the promotional nature of the article, we're looking at a plain, simple failure of WP:NCORP let alone WP:GNG - there's simply no "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject."

- Delete. A stinging submission but on analysis well justified. Page lacks reliable sources and it would seem unlikely that any exist. Fails WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. Cabrils (talk) 03:36, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- Weak delete - the article is incredibly promotional and most of the sources are as well and it needs an entire rewrite. Having said that, the SBS source is independent and reasonable, but I'm not sure about the Times of India ones (which are more about the business's COVID efforts than what they do themselves). I'm leaning weak delete but if there are more sources I could be persuaded otherwise. Deus et lex (talk) 07:47, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Article was speedily deleted as promotional less than a month ago, page author was asked to make a statement regarding possible conflict of interest and has so far ignored the request per Jimfbleak.

- @NguyenDuyAnh1995, do you mean his FIG profile? Stats databases like that never, ever contribute to notability as they are indiscriminate and do not contain prose analysis. Also, even if the Voronin Cup was at the competition caliber needed by NGYMNAST, Miwa would still need to meet GNG to be notable. JoelleJay (talk) 17:50, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
- @JoelleJay in WP:INDISCRIMINATE, there’s no requirement of the sources as you said, & in WP:WHATSIGCOV there’s no compulsory of prose as well. As the source meets the WP:GNG criterion of significant coverage (describing the gymnast’s information directly & in details), reliable (as FIG is reliable in gymnastics) & independent (as the FIG is independent of the gymnast himself), the article passes WP:GNG. NguyenDuyAnh1995 (talk) 20:45, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
- @NguyenDuyAnh1995 No, stats databases are not SIGCOV and do not contribute to notability. See WP:SPORTCRIT:
Trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may be used to support content in an article, but it is not sufficient to establish notability. This includes listings in database sources with low, wide-sweeping generic standards of inclusion ... Although statistics sites may be reliable sources, they are not sufficient by themselves to establish notability
. FIG is also not independent, as it is the governing body for his sport and therefore has a vested interest in the type and amount of coverage he receives. JoelleJay (talk) 22:19, 27 July 2022 (UTC)- @JoelleJay The criteria above is applied to trivial coverage. If the whole page is about one person, not listings in database sources with low, wide-sweeping generic standards of inclusion, it’s not WP:TRIVIALMENTION. Also, according to Cambridge dictionary, vested interest means a strong personal interest in something because you could get an advantage from it. What can the FIG get advantage from Teppei Miwa’s birthdate, birthplace, high school/college team, idol & injury information? NguyenDuyAnh1995 (talk) 23:57, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
- @JoelleJay The Fig link is also not statistics. Statistical database typically contain parameter data and the measured data for these parameters. NguyenDuyAnh1995 (talk) 00:10, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- The criteria above are defining trivial coverage and giving examples of it specific to sports, including what are clearly sports statistics databases (not the same thing as a "statistical database"). This is not debatable. See, e.g., the numerous AfDs where results databases/stats profiles (and governing sports bodies) were explicitly rejected from counting toward GNG. And what purpose do you think FIG, or FIFA, or the IOC serves? Each is focused on promoting their sport(s), which obviously includes promoting positive coverage of their competitors. It also means their interest in a subject is not reflective of the general public's interest in it, just like how student body president candidates profiled in a college newspaper do not reflect the actual notability of those people outside the college. JoelleJay (talk) 01:17, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- @JoelleJay Firstly, just because some deletion discussion mentioned it doesn’t make it right, especially when it’s not written on any WP article. The FIG link is not trivial coverage as in WP:TRIVIALMENTION, or in WP:SPORTCRIT (no definition). Secondly, google “ what is statistics database” & see if there is any results showing any definition different from Statistical database, as you claim. Thirdly, how can creating a profile of an athlete help to promote the sport? Does that lure more fans & investments? No. It would be vested interest with the teams that supply Miwa with facilities & medical condition like Juntento University, Seifu Highschool, or JGA if he competes in international tournaments, as his results & prize will bring money & reputation to them. But the FIG does not. They can get advantage of the popularity of those like Simone Biles, Aliya Mustafina...but through their performance & media coverage, not profiles on their websites. NguyenDuyAnh1995 (talk) 04:47, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- "Some deletion discussion" -- I linked multiple AfDs where sports database sources were uncontroversially disregarded when considering GNG. And it is written down: our guidelines literally exclude statistics sites/databases, which FIG and other things like sports-reference.com (the very first result when I type in "sports statistics database") and soccerway etc. indisputably are. And if you don't understand how a business can profit off of promoting its membership, or why its coverage of its own members reflects the interests of the organization rather than the world at large (in the exact same way a corporate profile written by HR does not demonstrate independent detailed coverage of someone's career), then you need to seriously take some time familiarizing yourself with en.wp community standards before contributing at AfD. At this point you're getting into WP:IDHT territory. JoelleJay (talk) 05:43, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- @JoelleJay in sports-reference.com, data is collected statistically with parameters & measured values as it is defined in Statistical database. So the FIG link has nothing related to whatever statistic. You can see it in the example of Brenna Stewart. Also, as I said before, Miwa’s profile only benefit the teams that supplies him with facilities & medical condition, such as Seifu, Juntendo or JGA. He’s not a member of the FIG, but is for his club & national team. NguyenDuyAnh1995 (talk) 06:19, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

So I added this Yahoo Link about Miwa and you can find lots of information there, from his birthdate, birthplace, junior club, education...written in prose, with Yahoo is a reliable, secondary & independent source to meet WP:GNG. 113.190.111.42 (talk) 06:30, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Comment one of the delete vote above says that Yahoo News Japan isn’t available in UK or EEA & can’t see it, which means he has no idea if the source is significant coverage, reliable & independent. Therefore, his “fails GNG” claim is invalid. 113.190.111.42 (talk) 17:47, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- No it doesn’t. I can’t see anything and so therefore cannot verify it (unless if some in the UK or EEA can find a way round this). One source is not everything, and you are grasping at straws. From what I have, the article fails WP:GNG. Unless you can provide other sources, this remains the case. Please do not claim a vote is ‘invalid’ because it does no agree with your point of view. Fats40boy11 (talk) 17:50, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Fats40boy11 you can only claim that the source fails WP:GNG if it doesn’t any of the criterion, not because you can’t view it. In Vietnam or Laos, BBC News is forbidden, so does that mean anyone living there can claim that any citation from that website fails GNG even though it meets every criteria? Or the same thing with China & tons of websites forbidden there? Take the example of grading a restaurant with Michelin stars, can you claim that it fails the criterion because you have never eaten there? Your claim is invalid because the problem is yours, not the source. According to Is it down right now? Yahoo News Japan is still working. 113.190.111.42 (talk) 18:32, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- Again, do not claim any point of view is invalid, it will only cause more problems down the line. I will no longer engage with you in discussion if you do this again.
- I have explained how I cannot view it, and will not explain my previous points again.
We should wherever possible use sources that everyone can see no matter of their location. Not everyone has the means to get around this. The same would go for Vietnam or Laos.If your confident that the article passes WP:GNG, then prove it by other sources. I am basing my judgement on the whole article, not one source that I cannot currently view. In my own WP:BEFORE, I have not found anything. I have repeatedly asked for other sources in a respectful manner, but you have been unable to provide and have instead tried to attack and shut down my view as invalid. Fats40boy11 (talk) 18:45, 28 July 2022 (UTC)- Quote from WP:SOURCEACCESS:
Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access. Some reliable sources are not easily accessible. For example, an online source may require payment, and a print-only source may be available only through libraries. Rare historical sources may even be available only in special museum collections and archives. If you have trouble accessing a source, others may be able to do so on your behalf

- Boom went the sock... Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 07:04, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I don’t believe the Yahoo article is enough on its own to save the page upon review. I’m not saying it isn’t relevant, but I’m not confident that parts are entirely independent of the subject. For example, in one section, he is described as the “inverted prince who has never failed” by a coach that has worked with the subject in the past. There are some sections that are more relevant than others, but I am still of the belief that more sources are needed to establish notability. Therefore, my view as of now is unchanged as I do not believe that the Yahoo article is enough to save the page. If anyone can find any other sources that may help, then please leave them below. Fats40boy11 (talk) 08:10, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
- Just to clarify my viewpoint, I don’t have any objections to the Yahoo article being used, but believe as parts of it include individuals that have worked with him before, I don’t think that this is enough to sway me and we should look to include other sources as well. Others may have different opinions on this.
- The Yahoo source is referenced after saying that he has become one of the ‘top’ and ‘most promising’ competitors in Japan. I’m not sure that anywhere in the Yahoo source it explicitly says that, and I think we have to be careful when it comes to such claims unless properly referenced by independent sources. (I’m not arguing whether he is or not, but explaining that it needs to be properly referenced)
- Overall, I wouldn’t be against the article being kept if we can establish that he is indeed notable, but at the moment, I still haven’t been convinced that he is notable. Fats40boy11 (talk) 11:28, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
- Draftify. After looking over the Yahoo article, I do think it provides significant independent commentary from the author...but that makes one potentially SIGCOV source, which I agree with Fats40boy11 is insufficient for GNG. However, given the difficulty in accessing Japanese media I can recognize the possibility of further coverage, so I'm changing my !vote to draftify or userfy to give others with better access a chance to find more SIGCOV sources. JoelleJay (talk) 04:23, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Draftify Upon the above statement by JoellyJay, I think it’s correct to allow users time to find sources and have now been swayed. This will give users time to find and improve the article instead of deleting it straight away. If necessary, we can review the article at some point in the future. However, the article in my opinion does not currently pass WP:GNG, and this needs to be fixed. Fats40boy11 (talk) 06:55, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

- Strong delete. Passing mentions in routine sports recaps, especially in local papers, and especially for youth events, do not amount to GNG and are explicitly rejected by NSPORT.

The result was no consensus. There are two issues here. The first concerns a possible copyvio. The user in question did not initiate the article (indeed the initiator in 2006 remains a user in good standing who last edited in 2021), but there was a contribution from a user who was banned for frequent copyvios, the diffs of which are summarized here. It has not been established that those edits were copyios, but in any case the current version of the article does not incorporate that material.
The second issue is one of notability. The original nomination and "delete" comments describe Bentley as an unsuccessful candidate, but it has been pointed out that he was elected to statewide office as comptroller general and with the article reasonably sourced the argument that he passes WP:NPOL and WP:GNG has merit.
As such, I cannot read a consensus to read based on notability, nor do I find that the copyvio issue brought up by Bearcat has been sufficiently substantiated. Sjakkalle (Check!) 11:02, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Which would make our man a civil servant, not an elected officer and therefore would fail WP:NPOL. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:45, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Alexandermcnabb, While the Georgia comptroller is no longer an elected position, it was when Bentley held the office in the '60s (I can't find an exact year when it stopped being elected, but it seems to have been around at least the late '80s). [34][35]. Curbon7 (talk) 13:28, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep per Curbon7. He passes WP:NPOL by having served as an elected statewide officeholder (as pointed out above, the office was a statewide position at the time Bentley held it, even if it is no longer is). Sal2100 (talk) 16:44, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete, without prejudice against recreating a new article from scratch. I can accept that the position was an elected statewide one which would thus pass WP:NPOL #1 — but a big part of the problem with Billy Hathorn was that his contributions very, very regularly violated copyright by copy-pasting large chunks of text directly from some other source without proper attribution or rephrasing. So if somebody wants to restart a new article, that's fine, but any article Billy Hathorn was involved in creating or editing needs to be blown up and started over from scratch. Bearcat (talk) 20:58, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- I think this is a bit of an overreaction; basically not a single word of Bill Hathorn's sole major contribution still stands. The copyvio check isn't great, but isn't too terrible (and this portion of content wasn't even added by him). Curbon7 (talk) 23:57, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- The copyvio detector can only check against online sources. It can't check against the print-only sources that Billy Hathorn actually tended to copyvio from, which is precisely why it took so long to identify that he was actually doing it. Bearcat (talk) 02:35, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete The keep arguments above all parrot those used in the original AfD - 'There's loads of coverage' - but there's not. Let's remember the higher bar set for WP:NCORP, "a stronger emphasis on quality of the sources to prevent gaming of the rules by marketing and public relations professionals" and bear in mind that the very impressive Forbes article is from 'Sites', user generated with no editorial oversight, so not RS. Trade magazine/website 'Digital Health' happily runs NHS/DrDr announcements and the rest of our coverage here is stories quoting DrDr execs - or NHS announcements using DrDr as a proof point. Are we looking at "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject"??? We are not, we are looking at PR pieces, company announcements, incidental commentary and routine funding rounds. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 11:14, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- NHS announcements - and there are lots of them - are reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. They arent marketing and public relations professionals. They are NHS managers explaining to patients how they use the product. The GOV.UK Digital Marketplace gives a very long and detailed exposition of the system. That seems a pretty objective quality source. This is now a significant contributor to NHS services and that makes it notable. Rathfelder (talk) 22:52, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete because none of the references meet NCORP criteria for establishing notability. The various references and other sources (those that are not PRIMARY and pass RS) have the same thing in common - they all rely entirely on interviews/quotations, announcements/PR and supplemented with descriptions and other information provided by the company. Wikipedia is not a platform for advertising, nor a Yellow Pages. Here's a brief review of the sources as requested:
- Forbes "sites" is not deemed reliable as per WP:FORBES, fails WP:RS
- SBRI Healthcare and gov.uk are just listings and PR provided by the company, not Independent, fails ORGIND and CORPDEPTH
- CNBC gives the company a brief mention at the end of this article, fails CORPDEPTH
- Wokingham Paper is a blog fails WP:RS and the article is based on an announcement, fails ORGIND
- These found in DigitalHealth, and another, the Nursing Times, the Express, another in Digital Health, and another, Mobile Health News, and another and finally again, Digital Health News are all based on PR and announcements.
- This from National Health Executive gets its information from the NHS who are customers - not Independent, fails ORGIND
- This on Sky is a small profile under the banner of "Technology startups are gaining traction in the NHS" but the small quote is from the company CEO and the single sentence is nothing more than a mention-in-passing. Fails ORGIND and CORPDEPTH
- Last is TrustPilot, fails WP:RS
- Perhaps TOOSOON but to date, we can only see company-originated and investor/customer-originated noise, this is insufficient to meet NCORP criteria. HighKing++ 17:44, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- The article in the Health Service Journal [1] is both detailed and objective. Gov.uk has a very substantial analysis of the service. The Digital Marketplace is as objective as you get. A great deal of NHS resource has been devoted to it. I dont see where you think objective information would come from if not from customers. Rathfelder (talk) 21:34, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete The 2017 AfD discussed the sourcing of the article and found it to be insufficient. Let's look back at that discussion:
- Ref 1. The Ynaija interview only quotes Mr. Israel and does not add any independent research. As such it is effectively a self-published source and not verifiable.
- Ref 2. Similarly, the Punch interview also goes no further than quoting Mr. Israel.
- Ref 3. The Youth Hub Africa blog feature does mention his history of starting a children's rights organization (GAAVOHCR - possibly notable) at age 11 and being sponsored as a delegate to attend two UN conferences. Attendance alone however, is not notable enough to warrant an encyclopedia.
- Ref 4. The Vivacity PR (Public Relations) blog page states Mr. Israel was the GLEEHD Foundation's Nigeria Director, and headed the Nigerian delegation on a visit to London, but a blog is not a WP:RS and going to meetings (even at Buckingham Palace) does not infer any inherent notabilty.
- Ref 5. The Handle It Africa page is a self-published (or written) publicity site, not RS.
- Ref 6. Is the text of a speech he gave to STM. SPS, not RS.
- Ref 7. Only states that he was "active" in civil society activities - nothing notable.
- Ref 8. The London Metropolitan University alumni profile is RS and supports his educational achievements (LLB, MA). It also mentions Dayo's own television show (possibly notable).
- Ref 9. Is his own website, not RS.
- Ref 10. Naij.com probably RS, but participating in a youth parliament and leading a visit by children to the UN does not make him notable.
- Ref 11. Konnect Africa re-hashes the other websites.
- Ref 12. Daily Media reads like a CV, not independent journalism.
- Ref 13. Another Punch interview, essentially SPS.
- Ref 14-18. It is not notable to have declared an intent to run for office and then fail to be nominated by the party for the ticket.
- That was User:Loopy30 five years ago. And what sources do we have now? Ynaija, Punch, KonnectAfrica, London Metropolitan University. It's groundhog day! Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 11:36, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep WP:MILL is just an essay. I've added a reference, which refers to a newspaper article from construction. While I haven't been able to find any newspaper coverage with newspapers.com, the source I added suggests that it does exist. Thus, I think there is enough coverage out there to meet WP:GNG. NemesisAT (talk) 13:41, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. This is a building entirely undistinguished on its own, entirely lacking in independent notability. WP:MILL expands fairly well on what is trivially non-notable but we do not need it to see what is not going on. We find no sources; we only find "there-must-be-sources" type of arguments.

Craig Duffy
Autobiography of non-notable businessman and snooker and poker player who does not satisfy general notability. Nothing in the article refers to significant coverage by independent sources. An article on this person has already been discussed and deleted once at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Craig Duffy (entrepreneur), and nothing has changed except that the subject/author continues to be persistent.
A review of the references shows that they are all database entries of the sort that have been deprecated even for major sports such as association football and baseball. Cue sports have never had a special notability guideline, although they have a lengthy notability essay which does not provide any specific basis for individual notability other than general notability. So neither the article nor the references provide significant coverage.

(19 September 2015), "Inside the Gold Coast's Memphis Mafia" (3 December 2016), "The Cast of the Strip Club Fight" (12 May 2018) and "Snooker star puts centre on market" (22 March 2013).

BLP of uncertain notability. His day job as press secretary is not notable, but it gives him press access so there is quite a bit of low-grade (not in-depth) coverage of him, including some new projects he seems keen to publicise. His notability as a poet rests on whether the award he won is sufficiently notable, which looks doubtful to me. Overall this article looks to me like part of a pr drive for his new career in music.

- Keep – Content-wise the article could use some expansion, but the song being officially pushed as a single to radio and (as noted above) subsequently ranking on three Billboard charts (and I'd dispute these being strictly minor or insignificant – Alternative Airplay, for one, is a fairly notable chart in its own right with a well-documented history covered in both primary and third-party [e.g.] sources, and at the time of this song's release was one of Billboard's primary single charts for the rock genre), including becoming a top ten hit on one of them, strikes me as grounds for notability here. Holiday56 (talk) 06:44, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete on account of subject lacking independent notability. This seems as good a time as any to revisit WP:NSONG.
Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label. This includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, television documentaries or reviews. This excludes media reprints of press releases, or other publications where the artist, its record label, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the work. Coverage of a song in the context of an album review does not establish notability. If the only coverage of a song occurs in the context of reviews of the album on which it appears, that material should be contained in the album article and an independent article about the song should not be created.
For this song, we strive to find sources testifying to the above but we come up empty. -The Gnome (talk) 19:23, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Good grief, I can't believe I'm setting out to help save a Coldplay song, but here we are. The guidelines on this one are achingly clear, folks WP:NALBUM tells us "The recording has appeared on any country's national music chart" and three Billboard chart placements later, they're over the bar and whingeing their way to notability. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:04, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Is debuting in a chart enough though? Everything about this song can be merged with Coldplay Live 2003. Aside from Coldplay I'm a Taylor Swift fan and I don't think all of her Hot 100 entries warrant a page of their own. "Moses" case is even "worse", it entered three side-charts, not Billboard's flagship one. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 13:58, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

- What does the fact that an album has a section with the songs it contains have anything to do with the level of notability any of the songs in an album has?

There are many holes in the sock that is WP guidelines... Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 15:30, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- There is a guideline about songs. The category of songs includes songs that have been released as singles and songs that have not. So, it's an all-inclusive category.

Not sure if this event satisfies WP:GNG. The book source provided only dedicates one paragraph (beginning of p. 147) to the rebellion and its immediate context. I can't find any other sources that cover this rebellion or even mention it in passing. Indeed, most of the article as-is covers a broader scope of history—information which may reside better elsewhere—and does not provide additional details on the rebellion.

- Delete - Only one sentence of that article actually deals with the subject. Which is pretty much a copy/paste from the source https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/The_Kingdoms_of_Laos/hSxTAQAAQBAJ (Search inside for "1834"). That sentence if anything could be included in the 'aftermath' section of Lao rebellion (1826–1828) JeffUK (talk) 17:09, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep as more sources are likely to exist. The content in The Kingdoms of Laos, though brief, suggests the event was significant. It reads in full:
- "In 1834, the people of Xieng Khouang were driven to revolt, but the rebellion was put down with such brutality that whole areas of the kingdom were depopulated. The Siamese promised asylum on the Right Bank of the Mekong, but when some 6,000 people crossed the river they learnt that they were to be deported to areas around Bangkok. 3,000 tried to return, but when they did so, they found in their old homelands only a desert patrolled by Vietnamese soldiers. Most of those who tried to return perished."

- Probably https://library.soas.ac.uk/Record/569922 this. But it seems to be the only source that mentions the event. So I'm not sure it's significant coverage. It's literally a footnote. JeffUK (talk) 18:57, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete You get more value for searching Xiang Khouang as two words, but even these results mostly refer to the 1827 event, although it appears to have been one of a number of revolts involving the Siamese. It's all pretty involved and way outside my comfort zone, TBH, but sense would seem to be to port the pared back and salient content (ie: the one sentence) from this article to Xiangkhouang#History and delete this. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:31, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: Thai sources describe the event not as a local rebellion but as part of the war between Siam and Vietnam. The event is currently covered in Wikipedia at Muang Phuan#History and Siamese–Vietnamese War (1831–1834)#Northern Fronts, and either would be a better redirect target than the 1826 rebellion, if redirecting is to be the outcome. There are extensive sources discussing the forced resettlement of the Phuan population (and the wider depopulation of the Lao hinterland) by Siam, but it's quite a different topic. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:47, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

From Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Publicly traded corporations (my bolding):There has been considerable discussion over time whether publicly traded corporations, or at least publicly traded corporations listed on major stock exchanges such as the NYSE and other comparable international stock exchanges, are inherently notable. Consensus has been that notability is not automatic in this (or any other) case. However, sufficient independent sources almost always exist for such companies, so that notability can be established using the primary criterion discussed above. Examples of such sources include independent press coverage and analyst reports.

The book notes: "Ping An created an online platform called Good Doctor in August 2014. ... It began as an online service where anyone would get doctor consultations for free. The point to be noted here was that the users of the Good Doctor platform were not Ping An's customers. In April 2015, the company launched the Ping An Good Doctor app. By providing the healthcare services, the platform generated tremendous traction. By December 2018, the app had 265 million registered users with 54.7 million monthly active users (MAU). All these services are offered free to the registered users. ... Ping An has used (is using and will use) the Good Doctor platform to expand its footprint in multiple domains, thus creating revenue streams which they would not have imagined back in 2013. In fact, if you examine the platform closely, you will notice that, on the platform, there are multiple competitors of Ping An's core business. So in effect, every time a competitor makes a sale on the Good Doctor platform, Ping An too makes money in the form of a small commission."

The book notes: "The "One-minute Clinic" referred to by Ms Liu [a resident of the Chinese city of Wuzhen near Shanghai] is the most recent and radical innovation from Chinese health insurance provider Ping An Insurance and its subsidiary Ping An Good Doctor, which was founded in 2015. In essence, the company consists of an app that lets users make an appointment with a doctor. In the case of minor illnesses, a video or phone consultation is also offered. Ping An Good Doctor not only covers the doctor's fee, but also the costs of prescription drugs and treatments. Subscribers also have the option of sharing information with other patients in forums. One particularly lucrative market for Ping An Good Doctor is Chinese citizens who are looking for medical treatment abroad. The company establishes contacts with physicians outside of China and organizes the necessary travel."

- Comment, @Necrothesp:, the Governor of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka is a notable position but there is no precedent for the deputy to be considered automatically notable. As per WP:ANYBIO there is no sources that indicate any achievements that he made in this role. In fact the only references are merely mentions in passing. The same for his role as Chairman of the People's Bank. If there was significant coverage provided for either role I would be prepared to reconsider however I have done a relatively thorough search and can't find anything.

Non-notable and doesn't meet GNG.

Keep: There seems to be very adequate sourcing citations. Guinness323 (talk) 07:10, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- Weak delete or redirect. Borderline, the current refs make it difficult to quickly verify whether SIGCOV is met. The coverage also seems limited to a small town in US (Kalamazoo, pop. ~75k). In My BEFORE I noticed few passing mentions in various works, including academic. [44], which might be reliable (Board Game Studies is a niche journal published by International Board Game Studies Association and despite over 20 years of history it still didn't get itself indexed anywhere, as far as I can tell) calls it "now-classic". I can't find anything better. Given the sparse and nicheness of sources (SIGCOV is not met as I no source I can access has an in-depth discussion of the game's significance), I am leaning delete. Would prefer a redirect target; maybe to current publisher which has a (poor, ad-like...) article? Sigh. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:41, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: I don't have ref 3, but it's a Who's Who? Another one (probably unrelated) is generally unreliable. I am not sure about whether ref 1 and 4 are significant (the latter is probably more about designer), since I don't have access, but we could assume it as so. Nor can I access ref 6, but it seems to be a rules overview- not significant enough probably, but not definitely. Of these I have access when I nom for the AfD, ref 2 is a rules mention and isn't significant, nor is ref 5 (rules overview). Your ref provided is interesting, the sources section list it as reliable, though there isn’t a discussion, but I assume, as it's peer-reviewed, it's definitely an RS. But the coverage is too short to ocunt as SIGCOV. So I agree that it’s probably borderline; I think deleting or merging/redirecting would be both fine. VickKiang (talk) 03:13, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- I'd prefer to have this redirect somewhere where it could be merged, but can't think of a good target (the modern publisher is likely not notable and needs to be deleted). History of board games in the United States, per the source cited, could be a valid topic, but nobody stubbed it yet... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:20, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: @Guinness323: @Bob K: After more review, I do find this deletion to be borderline. On one hand, it has one ref that's probably an RS but isn't significant, and two that I can't access, they are maybe significant but the local newspaper might not be the most reliable; so it has good content, but I don't think there's anywhere to merge it to. So I'm still thinking either weak delete or merge, but there has to be a suitable article. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 11:52, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment reading the article, this sounds like a turn-based variant of Nerts with a custom deck. Perhaps that or something like it would make a decent merge target? Jclemens (talk) 20:57, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I felt that, considering that there are loads of refs that are presumably RS, and ref 1 and 4 might be significant enough, it might be suitable to close the AfD as no consensus or weak keep, and decide on whether there's a good redirect/merge target. I thought that the nom could potentially be withdrawn (and did it), but given that another editor supported deletion,
Early closure is inappropriate where it appears that the withdrawal is simply an attempt to short-circuit an ongoing discussion.
Right now I am probably neutral and support merge if there's a fine target, instead of the original deletion rationale. As I don't have the refs, so I can't comment on their significance (but I'd assume so). As such, I have rv my edit, but would agree this closed either weak keep or no consensus. Apologies for this, haven't closed using XfD before and wasn't aware of the non-admin caveats. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 02:39, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

The article was placed up for PROD but article creator deleted that. Previous PROD nominators cited that there is no source for this purported micronation other than that of a primary source website. This is my concern also, and my fear is that this "micronation" could be nothing more than a scam to sell passports, something Wikipedia should not be involved in.

- Delete per nom. While several people have tried to create micronations in Bir Tawil (an area on the Egypt-Sudan border not claimed by either country), this particular micronation has no independent sources cited; the only cited independent sources discuss Bir Tawil but not this so-called Kingdom of Africa. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:40, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete As a self-professed "unrecognized micronation", I see no reason why we should buck the trend and recognise it. Fails WP:GNG. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 13:15, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete agree with nom. I've given up on micronations, when the website owners put Wirtland up for sale, without consulting the "residents"; it's only workable as long as we play the game apparently. Oaktree b (talk) 19:01, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. If any content is savable, it could be included in Bir Tawil. Jacona (talk) 11:15, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. I've clicked every find-sources link, but can't find a single independent, reliable source that discusses this made-up "nation". Glades12 (talk) 20:24, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Note from OP: I put the word "micronation" in quotation marks, and re-reading it now it looks like I'm questioning the idea of micronations themselves, which I'm not as such. The Principality of Sealand is a legitimate micronation. I'm just doubtful about this specific micronation. CeltBrowne (talk) 20:33, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Articles for fictional characters are allowed. See Gil Grissom or Byomkesh Bakshi, for example. In this case the article doesn't meet WP:GNG though. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:16, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - Topic fails WP:GNG due to lack of reliable sources. Retention of content does not appear it would improve the main article. TTN (talk) 15:28, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: Though a fictional character's article is accepted but there's no significant coverage in this case. ManaliJain (talk) 07:44, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: does not have significant coverage. Shooterwalker (talk) 00:33, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Poor sourcing, fails GNG. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:18, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
