I think this article should be deleted because of WP:BLP1E. Pretty much all of the citations talks mainly about his former world record Rubik's cube solve. There hasn't been any other articles about him that talks about something else. INeedSupport :V 23:30, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Maybe Keep The article is admittedly pretty small. But it also talks about how he won US Nationals 2016 and his former 2x2 world records. That makes at least 3 things. One piece of information that may be added to increase the size of the article is, his diagnosis of Juvenile Athritis. Judith Sunrise (talk) 19:32, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

This article was recently up for an AfD and was closed as keep because some editors thought playing in the inline Roller Hockey International league granted automatic notability. A discussion at WT:NSPORTS#Notability of Roller Hockey International players concluded that it didn't. He lacks the significant independent coverage to meet WP:GNG and also fails to meet any of the notability criteria at WP:NHOCKEY. Papaursa (talk) 23:18, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

- Delete As the nominator said I see no reason to suggest that playing in the RHI meets any NSPORT criteria. Further, even if it did when challenge a person is only presumed notable under . As there is not GNG evidence to support Clark being notable for any kind of hockey playing - coverage being insignificant, local, or otherwise unsatisfactory to meet the requirements of GNG - this article should be deleted. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:23, 4 October 2019 (UTC) In the interests of disclosure I participated in the linked discussion at WT:NSPORT and became aware of this AfD because of the notice placed there Barkeep49 (talk)
- Delete: The subject fails the GNG, and there are no pertinent notability criteria granting him presumptive notability otherwise. Ravenswing 03:10, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Renomination note In case there are concerns this renomination was too soon, the previous AfD was closed by ST47 with the note:
No prejudice against a second AfD being opened in the near future, if the discussion at Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(sports)#Notability_of_Roller_Hockey_International_players results in a relevant change to the guideline.
Both that talk page discussion as well as the since-closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jason Clarke (ice hockey) ("Clarke" with an "e", also a roller hockey player) rejected the claim that a pro roller hockey player is presumed to be notable.—Bagumba (talk) 05:20, 4 October 2019 (UTC) - Delete Does not meet WP:GNG with multiple sources of significant converage from indepenent sources. Fails WP:NHOCKEY also. Consensus at the similar Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jason Clarke (ice hockey) ("Clarke" with an "e") rejected that a professional athlete, regardless of their sport, was presumed to be notable. Only those mentioned explicitly under Wikipedia:Notability (sports) § Professional sports people shoud be presumed notable.—Bagumba (talk) 05:49, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

Soap opera character who lacks real world notability. An attempt to redirect to List of EastEnders characters (2012)#Joey Branning was undone. Bringing it here for final determination. Barkeep49 (talk) 22:28, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. The character hardly lacks real world notability, he was involved in some of the most prominent storylines during his tenure on the soap. There’s plenty of other characters with much less notability, not to mention how popular Joey was. His sister Alice also has her own article, whom is just as big of a character as he was. Joey is also likely to return at some point in the future, as he is part of one of the soap’s biggest families of all-time. I personally think it’s a great article and think it should be kept, there’s so many other characters that are less worthy of their own article.Soapoholic (talk) 23:43, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- It is generally thought that referring to other stuff existing is an argument to avoid at AfD. What are the WP:THREE best sources in your mind showing real world notability? Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:27, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete or redirect to a suitable list article. Once again folks are confusing popularity or in-universe notability with real world notability. Fails WP:GNG. Onel5969 TT me 00:26, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. Previous attempts to create this article have been copied and pasted from the list entry and no effort was made to show notability. This article is a massive expansion on that. I have always urged users to do this kind of work before splitting an article from one of the character lists to an independent article. I'm satisfied that the sources determine real-world notability. Also, the actor won a National Television Award for this character's portrayal. — 🌼📽️AnemoneProjectors💬 10:20, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: on the one hand, there are 2 or three sources (with a dozen instances each) there that probably spend some time talking about this character (since he is named in all the titles), but on the other hand, they all look like primary, plot-recap coverage. There are a few interviews and listicles of sexy actors mixed in. Since I don't want to wade through dozens of soap rag pieces (with the attendant brain damage) looking to see if any of these are reliable, significant, and independent, can somebody tell me which of them aren't going to melt my brain with insipidity? Rockphed (talk) 13:34, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Rockphed, my analysis before nominating is with you that most coverage is of the recap rather than notability establishing nature variety. I hope that Soapoholic or AnemoneProjectors will give examples of stronger coverage suggesting notability and thus not just a candidate for the list. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:46, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: Rockphed I feel your reply is rather insulting to those who edit these types of articles. Soap operas and fictional characters are already looked down upon enough, without the need for your comments about getting brain damage from reading them or the sources. Barkeep49 I went through every source and there are only two episode recaps [1] [2] (and two that are sort of previews of a scene [3] [4]). The other sources are a mix of interviews with the actor and news pieces about storylines. Some of the Digital Spy sources do quote from other news outlets and magazines, but they could be replaced with the originals. I won't !vote yet, but I'm leaning towards keep with a view to having the article thoroughly copyedited. - JuneGloom07 Talk 22:34, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

- While I did intentionally cast aspersions on the sourcing of this article, I did not mean to cast aspersions on either the editors responsible for creating it or on soap operas as a genre (though "soap opera" might be a deprecated term that originated as a way to cast aspersions on the genre). Thank you for your cursory analysis of the sources. If I stumbled on a deletion discussion about a transformer, a D&D monster, or a sci-fi author with similar sources, I would probably balk at wading through the sources despite being sufficiently interested in those topics to be less than neutral about their notability. Looking through the sources, I find the following that support notability:
- Prior, Vicky (22 October 2013). "EastEnders: What will fans do when Joey Branning, played by David Witts, quits?". Metro. Retrieved 29 September 2019.
- Brown, David (21 October 2013). "EastEnders David Witts to leave Joey Branning role". Digital Spy. Retrieved 29 September 2019.
- The first is actually a very good, in depth summary of who the character is, what motivates him, and his impact on the show, however, it is from the Metro, which is listed as generally not reliable. The second is in the same vein, but seems a little less in depth (though it is still significant, seems independent, and digital spy is listed as a generally reliable source). All-in-all, I think he lands on the line for GNG based just on the sources in the article. There are probably a few more, so I am voting weak keep. Rockphed (talk) 13:36, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Much as I dislike these massive soap character biographies, it is Something We Do, for many of the high impact series. Yes, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, but outside a change in general conventions - which is not a fight we are going to win - these hundreds (thousands?) of large articles aren't going away; and I don't see grounds for deleting this particular one, which is comparable in content and quality to the usual fare of this type (e.g., those on List of Friends and Joey characters and whatnot). Shelve with 3rd league Romanian footballers and hope for a sea change :/ --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 02:35, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I am certain that this article passes WP:GNG and the sources do not appear to be just episode recaps. There is a nice selection of sources used and probably more offline print sources discussing this fictional character. The reception section appears to be strong and sourced too, which leans me towards keeping it.Rain the 1 12:40, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I am in agreement that this article definitely passes WP:GNG. There is plenty of development and reception, and notability has certainly been established. Soaper1234 - talk 14:11, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
What’s the decision going to be? Surely we’ve discussed this enough?Soapoholic (talk) 13:49, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- It stays open for 7 days, barring cases where there's complete unanimity and an earlier decision in one direction would obviously be fine with all participants (as is not the case here). -Elmidae (talk · contribs) 14:40, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I'm in agreement with the majority here. Joey passes WP:GNG as he was a large part of the soap while he appeared in it, and is still talked about to this day. – DarkGlow (talk) 23:14, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. I think as the article stands it passes WP:GNG, and follows guidelines set out at WP:FICT and WP:SOAPS. It does need a copyedit and some of the original sources added in place of the Digital Spy ones. - JuneGloom07 Talk 22:57, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
- Weak keep largely per Elmidae. Additionally, while Metro is generally unreliable, I can think of little reason to doubt the accuracy of their coverage of fictional characters in soap operas. signed, Rosguill talk 23:14, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Passes WP:SIGCOV; notable soap opera and fictional character. --Wario-Man (talk) 08:07, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. District court is not a level of office that confers an automatic pass of our notability standards for judges, but this article is not reliably sourced anywhere near well enough to get him over the bar: it's entirely too dependent on primary sources that aren't support for notability at all, and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things or people, none of which is enough. I won't rehash everything I've already said, but my comment in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Francis Xavier Ransdell lists the evidence that Gulfstream411 was indeed almost certainly a Billy Hathorn sockpuppet.

- Delete. District court is not a level of office that confers an automatic pass of our notability standards for judges, but this article is not reliably sourced anywhere near well enough to get him over the bar: the "sources" are family genealogies, a clarifying note that is not any sort of source at all, a source which gives the publisher and date but fails to provide the title of the article being referenced, and the obituary of his grandson, zero of which represent notability-supporting reliable source coverage about Ransdell. To be honest, I'm pretty sure that despite the different username, the nominator's "mistaken" initial impression about the creator of this was actually correct — it literally has all the classic hallmarks of Billy Hathorn's work, from the "local officials in Louisiana" angle to the complete and total reliance on garbage sourcing, and all of Gulfstream411's contributions were created during a period when Billy had just been released from his first copyvio-related editblock but had not actually resumed editing under his original username yet — in other words, exactly the period when he was routinely evading the first block with many other sockpuppets. And for added bonus, just take a wild guess who was the very first person to ever touch the article after Gulfstream411 was done with it. An SPI check would be pointless now, as both accounts are almost certainly too stale to definitively link anymore, but I'm quite convinced that Gulfstream411 was a Billy puppet.

- Delete Recognizing that his judicial career is very old, the only citations I can find to him are appeals from his rulings in the Louisiana Reports and SE reports. He was a trial court "district court" judge in Louisiana. Does not meet WP:JUDGE. Doesn't meet WP:GNG as far as I can tell.

- Redirect to Totally Spies!#Video games. In addition to the Jeuxvideo review, I also found a short review on Igromania [6]. One substantial review and one brief one is close to being enough to satisfy WP:GNG, but doesn't quite get there. Nothing in the article seems worth preserving in a merge, so redirect for now with the possibility of being spun off again iff more coverage can be found.

At this point, several different editors including myself, Onel5969, Polyamorph, and QuiteUnusual have redirected this article to Made in Chelsea, Boulle's main claim to fame. This conversion to redirect has been opposed each time by Syncedits. It's time to actually settle this in the proper forum (i.e. here).
I would propose that we redirect to Made in Chelsea due to not meeting WP:GNG. Available coverage is either passing mentions, directly related to Made in Chelsea, or in unreliable tabloids such as The Sun (RSP entry). signed, Rosguill talk 19:32, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

- Redirect per the nom. No notability outside the show. If the outcome is to keep the article, then its use of trivial and non reliable sources needs addressing as does the tone which is borderline promotional and certainly not balanced or neutral. QuiteUnusual (talk) 10:59, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect per nom. All significant coverage is connected to Made in Chelsea (or that he dated Emma Watson). Lots of tabloid coverage gives the illusion of notability, but even that doesn't mention Boulle without adding "from Made in Chelsea". Schazjmd (talk) 23:42, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

- Possible keep. Is this the same Doctor Impossible that appears in Soon I Will Be Invincible? Because if it is, the character has escaped from DC Comics into a generic character. All the characters in this novel are based on, or are pastiches of, DC Comics and Marvel characters, so it has to be at least related.

- @Spinningspark: is there something in the character description that makes you think they might be the same, or is it just based on the name? I don't have an answer, but I'm inclined to think they are different, and the name is generic enough to be the sort seen in multiple different uses. The DC character was created in 2006, and the book was published by Penguin in 2007. I don't think DC would let another publisher use the same character. This isn't really good criteria, but the Doctor Impossible article also has a hatnote saying if you're looking for the character associated with the novel, then go to the book page... -2pou (talk) 18:54, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

However this space would be far better used as a redirect to the book's article. The List of DC Comics characters: D is a bloated, unsourced, completely useless block of random, out of context names (it includes such "important" DC characters as "Dennis", "Dennis' father" and "Dennis' mother" among others), so a redirect there would not be particularly useful to anyone.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
The reason I think it should be deleted is because there's obviously not any significant coverage of her all. Her claim to fame is to have made maps for Swedish role playing games in the 1980's, but she's not received much coverage/mention outside of the occassional blog or forum post. Thoug the article might look well-sourced at a first glance, the only sources that seem to meet RS guidelines (a handful of articles that supposedly appeared in local newspapers) are not formatted properly and not verifiable, i.e. "Nya Kristinehamnsposten, 13 July 1990", "Kuriren, 3 July 1984", "Bergslagsposten, 2 July 1984" and "Jönköpings-Posten 12 July 1993". It's impossible to determine if whatever coverage she might have received in these articles would classify as "significant" - my guess is not. There's plenty of references provided as evidence that Former Deputy Prime Minister of Sweden Maud Olofsson often wore jewelry designed by Qvarnström but none of those actually mention Qvarnström but merely depict Olofsson wearing jewelry (supposedly made by Qvarnström), which obviously isn't relevant. I was able to find only one verifiable RS (not included in the article, but from Google News) where she is very briefly mentioned:
https://www.expressen.se/nyheter/inloggad/bland-mutanter-drakar-och-demoner/
"Den frilansande illustratören Ann-Sophie Qvarnström, i dag silversmed, anlitades ofta av för att rita främst kartor. Hon var också en hängiven spelare.
– Man måste komma ihåg att det här var långt innan datorerna slog igenom på bred front. Rollspelen gjorde att vi kunde bygga egna världar utan begränsningar. Det var så långt vi kunde komma på den tiden utan datorer, säger hon."
Google Translate:
"Freelance illustrator Ann-Sophie Qvarnström, today a silversmith, was often hired to draw mainly maps. She was also a dedicated player.
- You have to remember that this was a long time before computers broke through on a broad front. The role-playing games allowed us to build our own worlds without limitations. That was as far as we could get at that time without computers, she says. "

- Delete She's probably notable enough, but the article is crap. It was my very first attempt to translate an article from sv-wiki to en-wiki, so newbie-me had no clue about how things were done here. When prompted by other editors to expand the meager first translation, I went about this in a journalistic way intead of in an encyclopedic manner. Qvarnström was my test subject. Later, when I learned that you should not write articles about people you know well or are close to, I dropped this article completely. These days I know how to write good articles in a proper way, so if this is deleted, you'd be doing me a favor since this article is just an embarrassment to me. cart-Talk 16:40, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you for your vote. If she's notable enough, the article shouldn't be deleted, though. Currently her notability isn't established in the article, and I haven't been able to find any evidence on the web of her supposed notability, so I believe that assessment ("she's probably notable enough") is wrong.

- Comment: I think the editors that accepted this article, based that on the third notability criteria in WP:ARTIST: "3.The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work.", rather than on what was written about her. Qvarnstöm did do the map illustration in more than 20 of the first roleplaying game modules in Sweden. That is why I wrote "probably notable enough". She is listed among the creators in most of the articles about these games on sv-wiki (list). The second part of that criteria is also covered since there is a book about all the creators of those games, including Qvarnström. The link to Expressen provided by the IP editor above is an article about that book. cart-Talk 18:23, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

Well it looks like the party is over. Edit warring may be wrong, but Koavf's fundamental objection to this article is correct: it is nowhere near meeting WP:GNG, and virtually the entire article would appear to be original research. I was unable to find any coverage in reliable sources online, and was only able to find mere-mentions on Google Scholar. The single citation in the article neglects to include a page number, and is not a book searchable online, so it doesn't help us much either (and one source wouldn't be enough for WP:GNG anyway).

- Redirect Per WP:OR, WP:V, WP:RELIABLE, WP:SOURCE, WP:NOTABLE: most of our bedrock policies. See also: I can NOT emphasize this enough. There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative "I heard it somewhere" pseudo information is to be tagged with a "needs a cite" tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced. This is true of all information, but it is particularly true of negative information about living persons. – Jimbo Wales, 16 May 2006 [1] I want to make explicitly clear that this applies to other "articles" like (e.g.) Tom and Jerry: The Mansion Cat.

- Keep. Some coverage of the cartoon's history is covered in these books, [9], [10]. This reference says this specific cartoon won critical acclaim, which would imply that significant enough criticsm is out there to warrant an article if we go back into publication archives. This book attacks this cartoon for being racist.4meter4 (talk) 21:50, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- This is enough to sway me to keep, particularly the coverage in the first source and the assertion in the third source that significant critical acclaim exists. The book criticizing the racism unfortunately cuts its free preview 2 sentences in to its discussion of Midnight Snack in particular, so I can't verify that there's significant coverage there, although there very well may be. These sources are also all RS that establish that The Midnight Snack introduced several important elements of Tom and Jerry cartoons, which would likely make the cartoon of academic interest and thus is an indication of possible further coverage. signed, Rosguill talk 18:48, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

- Speedy keep No apparent justification given for listing as terrorism related (I’m only here because I follow that category), neither the university page or the page of its founding party contain any mention of terrorism. That tag was added by the nominator and is the first tag so unless they have a really good explanation I think we have an inappropriate use of AfD to push a personal agenda.

I nominate this article for deletion. The whole article is not factual and quite biased since the Saudi-led coalition and Yemen's Information Minister Moammar el-Eryani both denied the Houthi claim, and stated that the video is a fabrication of reality, an attempt to mislead the international media and to "promote fake victories". I had to add the Saudi-led coalition and Yemen's Information Minister Moammar el-Eryani statements since there is no mention of them at all. But I believe there is no reason for this article to remain. Do we create independent articles on Wikipedia based on fabrications, especially that major news outlets like the BBC[2] and the Guardian[3] have stated that this incident cannot be confirmed? --Cosmopolitan268 (talk) 19:22, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

- Hmm, I agree. We can include this inside another article and say the the Houthi movement claimed to do so and so, but to create a whole new article? Nah. Most of their claims sounds like propaganda to me at least so I don't think this deserve a whole new article. We can include it as part of another article and end it with that. But saying 2000 Saudi troops were killed or captured when the whole civil war article only says 1-3000 Saudi troops died is though provoking... Anyways, I don't care but theres very good speculations on the houthi claims as their videos and images they show were inconclusive. However its notable to mention that the Houthis claimed to do this or that. I recommend merging it with an article about the Saudi Yemen border war or another article. best wishes! Graull (talk) 01:05, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Speedy keep Cosmopolitan268 please familiarize yourself with the deletion policy. The attack got a lot of coverage. The Houthis have captured and showed Saudi soldiers, Western-made Saudi-paid arms and vehicles. We can't remove an article because the Saudi is in the denial phase. Remember that the Saudi has previously denied the Khashoggi was killed inside the embassy yet it turns out he was killed inside the embassy. That is not a reason to remove an article. Catherine Shakdam from Next Century Foundation said that there is no reason to doubt the Houthi statement asserting that the videos and the images which the Houthis have shown, confirm the Houthi statement.[11]--SharabSalam (talk) 02:02, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- With all due respect, it's very simple and clear to understand, the Houthis claimed to have captured Saudi soldiers, the Saudis themselves denied it from happening, Yemen's Information Minister denied it from happening, international media outlets denied it from happening, and referred to it as one of many attempts by the Houthis to convey fake victories . Therefore, this article cannot be independent based on "claims". It should be mentioned in another article. It's Wikipedia after all, do we base entire articles only on claims? If this is the case, then you'll see billions of articles like these, only then, Wikipedia won't be as trusted as it has always been. With regards to Khashoggi's murder, the officers involved wanted to cover it up, so they reported to the government that he left the consulate. Days later, the government released that he indeed did not leave the consulate and was killed inside it. Let's leave politics affiliation aside, it's Wikipedia that matters here. --Cosmopolitan268 (talk) 15:02, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Cosmopolitan268 the media didn't deny it from happening, they said they couldn't independently verify the videos. The Saudi and Hadi government are biased, the attack has been covered by lots of independent media outlets. That means it is notable enough to gain an article. You didn't provide any reason why this article should be removed. All you are saying is that it didn't happened because the Saudi said it didn't happened. Lol, we should have removed the article of Assassination of Jamal Khashoggi when the Saudi was in the denial phase.--SharabSalam (talk) 16:22, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

- Maproom how is the name a POV and how is "2019 Najran incident" a NPOV?--SharabSalam (talk) 07:20, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- SharabSalam: calling it "attack" means that there was an attack – which is currently the view of only some. Calling it "incident" covers the possibility that there was an attack, and also the possibility that there was just a lot of publicity about a claimed attack that never really happened. Maproom (talk) 07:32, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Maproom, I would say that "incident" also implies that the Houthi claim is true. The name also seems to imply that there was an event that took place in Najran which is the point of view of the Houthi movement. Therefore I think the name "Operation Victory from God" is more neutral and descriptive.--SharabSalam (talk) 07:39, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

— you realize that proving a negative is not how confirmation works. El_C 07:09, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- It was mentioned that there was no independent confirmation from Saudi Arabia, It is not true because Saudi Arabia has not reacted about the attack, it didn't happend.

- The Canadian is now investigating the Houthi footage which shows their vehicles getting destroyed in a humiliating way (Houthis use lighters to burn Western-made vehicles).[12]. Also that they are not verified is old news. Now Houthis have released footages of Saudi soldiers speaking to the Camera. TBH, it's not news, the Houthis have been doing this since the war started e.g 2017 but it got attention due to the Persian gulf tensions. Do you think a dictator family state would be able to rule Hijaz and Najd without the western support? Doubt!
- Anyway, the article needs updating will try to do that when I have time.--SharabSalam (talk) 07:52, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- Any sane person see the Houthi footage will know it verifies everything they said as the expert I mentioned above said.
- Also I want to note that western media is biased because their regimes are part of this war and they are anti-Iranians.per UN report They hate Iranians.(see for example, the U.S regime is denying access to medical resources for Iranians). For example they said Houthis could have not be behind the attack on Abqaiq and Khurais; it's Iran, Why???? Because the attack was sophisticated. How sophisticated were the few Bedouin Arabs who went to the U.S. took three airplanes and drive them to the twin towers. That's a much sophisticated attack, why isn't there someone saying a state was behind the attack?--SharabSalam (talk) 08:07, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- It's ironic that the Western is asking for evidences when they have accused Iran of many things in the past few months with literally no evidences at all. It's like a prostitute lecturing people about dignity.--SharabSalam (talk) 08:27, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep but it needs to be strongly noted in the lead section that the event is unconfirmed by everyone outside the Houthis. Most reliable sources report the claim, but nothing outside Houthi propaganda channels report it as fact. Juxlos (talk) 14:17, 7 October 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. This is a documented historic site, designated California Historical Landmark #779. Many/most editors recognize that historic sites listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places or in the higher ranks of U.K. listed buildings are presumably notable because of their historical importance and because of documentation being required by those programs and available. The statewide California Historical Landmark system is another high-ish level of historic site recognition, higher than strictly local programs. There are books and files and so on.
- This site in particular has a long history already reported in the article, including now-historic-to-us preservation efforts, because of its previous historic importance. The article could be developed more, including to switch its infobox to use more template:infobox historic site with its striking gold/yellow coloring when applied to CHL sites.

The subject does not seem to fail NCORP. Current sources are not private directory listings. They are the offical records of respective Australian government authorities who accredit and certify[1] vocational training institutes in the country. However, the LinkedIn profile of the CEO[2] is provided for proof of this professional's existence and resume in the industry. User:Vegetagz6
- I didn't not say that they were private directory listings, just that they were directory listings - which they are. The fact that they it's a government directory doesn't change that, it's not significant coverage per WP:CORPDEPTH. A LinkedIn profile is neither independent nor reliable, and adds nothing to notability. There are still no reliable, independent secondary sources giving significant coverage - NCORP calls for multiple such sources. GirthSummit (blether) 12:38, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

- Yes, I totally understand the point you are convey as an editor. However, vocational training institutes in Australia are not like universities to get significant news coverage . For example, please see [Wikipedia article]. It's also a similar vocational training center. If you go through its reference list, you can see only one citation is from a newspaper article (a website called Communitynews). All the remaining references are from the state government's websites itself (who also owns the institute). This would not discredit the aspect that the institute is one of the popular ones in the country - forming the backbone of Australia's vocational education infrastructure. That is the same case with PMV as well. For more third-party citations, the only ones possible are from regional or national conferences[3]. In such a brochure[4] from a recent conference, more details about PMV, and third party descriptions about its CEO may be found.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Vegetagz6 (talk • contribs) 14:01 3 October 2019 (UTC)

I don't think he meets NACADEMIC or GNG. There's almost no secondary coverage and he doesn't meet any of the obvious NACADEMIC criteria, no named professorship, significant reviews of his books, etc. While it's true that he's occasionally been cited by the media, I don't think that's enough to make him notable.

As always, people do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they did not win — a person has to hold a notable office, not just run for one, to be notable as a politician. But this makes no credible claim that he had preexisting notability for other reasons that would have gotten him an article independent of the candidacy itself, and is referenced entirely to raw tables of vote totals rather than any evidence of reliable source coverage about him.

- I had disambiguated it based on Slavic literature, which is also a disambiguation. I would still lean towards disambiguation over deletion because "Gaelic" can either mean Scottish Gaelic or an archaic term for the Irish/Manx languages. Zerach (talk) 00:31, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep – either as a WP:DAB or as a WP:SIA (which is what the article in its current form effectively is). 'Gaelic literature' is a likely search term, and it needs to point somewhere. It would be misleading to redirect it to only one of the three languages. Gaelic is ambiguous, and is a DAB page.
- IMO the article would be most useful in the form of an SIA, which could (1) give an overview of the histories of all three branches, and (2) include links to related topics which would be out of place on a DAB page. Narky Blert (talk) 08:25, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

AfD from 10 years ago concluded that it's notable because WP:LISTED. But now our understanding of this is that listed companies are likely to be notable, but being listed is not enough.

While the article was unreferenced at the time of nomination, it clearly stated "He recorded albums for London Records and the Musical Heritage Society." WP:MUSICBIO#5 is "Has released two or more albums on a major record label", so there was a clear statement of notability already in the article. So far, I have found that he released 5 albums on London Records and 2 with the Musical Heritage Society, and that's only up to 1975. The sources I have added so far are from Newspapers.com, but the discography is free to access on WorldCat [18]. RebeccaGreen (talk) 16:25, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

Not notable unsourced article. Does not play on a Fully professional league and does not meet our general notability criteria. Besides a couple of routine mentions, the only in-depth coverage I could find was local, from the Geelong Advertiser.

- Thank you GiantSnowman. I did miss that part. I will keep it in mind for the future. For this case it clearly fails both as well. --Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 11:01, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- WP:NORG applies, although for future there are established notability guidelines for soccer teams at WP:FOOTYN. GiantSnowman 10:20, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you @GiantSnowman: I know that we don't have a notability guideline for teams and therefore only GNG applies, I was just pointing out that it is not a fully professional team for which coverage would probably be much easier to find. I am basing the nomination on the lack of in-depth coverage. --Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 09:23, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Strong delete. WP:NAFL does not cover clubs; players are only notable if they played in the AFL (VFL before 1990) or AFL women's or had major achievements in a state league. FIDA clubs fall completely outside this ladder. Unless Australian football is contested at the Special Olympics or similar national or international competitions (and this club competed at one), the only notability standard for this article is WP:GNG. Coverage of the team, based on what I see, is minimal. The one thing that might help the article is Be Dragons, the TV programme produced about the club, but even then I would argue that it is the programme that is notable, not the club. If an article were created for Be Dragons, then this page could be a useful redirect to that article. However, I do not see anything that indicates that this club is notable enough for an article about it. —C.Fred (talk) 13:49, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Normal delete on unsourced grounds with a caveat that if sources are found that pass WP:GNG, the article may be recreated. (Also note this is an article about an Australian rules footy club, NOT a soccer-football club, so WP:NFOOTY/WP:FOOTYN don't really work here.) SportingFlyer T·C 01:20, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

Likely fails WP:NBIO. Sources are limited to press release and their rewrites, effectively annoucements of some stages of his career - in other words, business as usual. Said coverage is also local, limited to outlets like The Detroit News. The article titled Neal Rubin (2007). "Red Wings broadcaster refuses to let his dream die". The Detroit News. seems like it might have been an in-depth piece but the link is dead, and I couldn't locate a copy in Internet Archive or eleswhere. Even if it is an in-depth piece, and assuming coverage in Detroit News is sufficient (we generally want something less local than a city-wide paper) we would need one more good source to satisfy GNG requirement for multiple in-depth pieces.

This was incorrectly tagged for CSD by an IP editor who said "... please delete at request of Peter Woodbridge, to whom this page refers ..." [19]. I declined this request per WP:NOTCSD as "Article subjects do not have an automatic right to have their articles deleted". However, I believe this BLP fails the WP:GNG and WP:NACADEMIC and am nominating it for deletion with the request that the closer observe WP:BIODEL which provides for deletion at the subject's request if any result of the AfD other than consensus to Keep occurs.

- Delete. Nothing in the article suggests major impact on the field (award, write-ups, etc.). GScholar search shows average citations - co-authored article with ~150, then ~50, and less, not a single single author piece in the top 10 most cited works.

Small WP:ROTM shopping center with 1 anchor grocery store and about a dozen small stores. Refs are some routine local coverage. Does not meet GNG.

- Delete. Nothing suggests this passes WP:NORG or WP:NGEO, coverage is limited to press releases and their rewrites (business-as-usual). However, I'd encourage closing admin (if this is to be deleted) to take a minute and add an entry to the wv:Canberra (just copy paste text to a new listing in the Buy section there). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:20, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment, so a "redirect" to Kaleen (and maybe listing it under a renamed (from Churches and schools to "Facilities") section is out of the question? Coolabahapple (talk) 06:08, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- I don't see how listing it in Kaleen is appropriate. If we commonly listed non-notable shopping centers in articles on places, a big city could have hundreds. WP is not a directory of trivia. If there were a case that this shopping center is particularly significant to Kaleen and aided the understanding of that topic, a case could be made. That is a discussion for the talk page there.

- Merge and Redirect to Kaleen. The content has reliable sources but is not notable enough for its own article. Merging and redirecting means it can easily form part of the article for the suburb. Bookscale (talk) 11:06, 7 October 2019 (UTC)

Completely non-notable fictional creature. The only non-primary sources here are all being used in the "Creative Origins" section, which is entirely WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH, as the sources in question not only do not discuss D&D, they also predate the game by a century or more. Even if that section wasn't just entirely original research, noting the creatures origins do nothing to establish notability without reliable secondary sources actually discussing the creature, and there are none.

- Comment Bellator as top tier promotion is from 2009 to 2015. Pls see WP:MMATIER. During 2009 to 2015 subject had fought only 1 fight under the promotion. To pass MMABIO, the subject needs at least 3 fights under top tier promotion. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 15:17, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
- Delete He fails to meet the notability criteria for MMA fighters since he has only 1 of the required 3 top tier fights. Given his 20 month suspension, it will be quite some time before he can meet WP:NMMA. The coverage is typical sports reporting for his fights and listings in databases. There's nothing to show his coverage is atypical and meets WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 22:19, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
