- Keep, but trim down to sourced info. I don't see why we should pick on Denmark when so many other countries have equivalent lists (Andorra may be an exception). There's a smaller list at WorldAtlas. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:28, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Internet Archive only shows the cited page going back to 2019, I'm not convinced that their data is not dependent on our pages, especially since their numbers exactly match ours as recorded in the late 2018 version here. It is of course possible that our numbers got copied from an earlier, differently named page of theirs, but there's no proof of that either. THat said, if they could be proven to be not dependent on us, I'd be somewhat willing to go along with this resolution, with a big caveat I'll go into below. Mangoe (talk) 21:13, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. The question of national extreme points pages is a broader one and there are many dozens of them. Certainly there's no case for deleting this one. Smb1001 (talk) 09:52, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- This is an WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument. Mangoe (talk) 21:13, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep As noted above, this can be sourced to WorldAtlas. Going by previous WP:RSN discussions, that's considered a WP:Reliable source. TompaDompa (talk) 10:21, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- It can't all be so sourced, and as I said above, there is reason to suspect that they are repeating our information. Mangoe (talk) 21:13, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- All the stuff that could be sourced to WorldAtlas now is, and all of the stuff that was unsourced after doing so has been removed (and this was already the case when you wrote your response). It's possible that WorldAtlas got their information from Wikipedia, but the real question is whether WorldAtlas is a WP:Reliable source. That is to say, does WorldAtlas have
a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy
? Going by previous WP:RSN discussions such as Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 286#worldatlas.com, the answer seems to be yes (see also Wikipedia:New page patrol source guide#Geography and history). TompaDompa (talk) 12:36, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

- Keep If the nominator bothered to open up the Template:Extreme_points_of_Europe which is shown in the bottom of the article, it would be evident that every country in Europe and the European Union have such articles. Also many countries outside Europe have them. In that case every article should be nominated, but people are interested in this info and therefore all these articles were created.--BIL (talk) 20:35, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- As far as all these articles are concerned, it seems to me that it would make a great deal more sense to merge the lot into one or a few list articles. The creating of separate articles when a tabular display woul;d be as accurate and far more succinct is a common bad habit here. Mangoe (talk) 21:13, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep No reason to single out this particular article. I agree with Clarityfiend that the article should be trimmed and all the information therein properly sourced using reliable sources.--Darwinek (talk) 22:58, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Well, there is are reasons: the abominable sourcing, and because this happens to be the one I was made aware of. If others are as bad, they need to be dealt with as well. And nearly every time I try to do a group nom, someone tries to shut it down procedurally, so I'm not going to bother any more. Mangoe (talk) 21:13, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Many of the items listed in the {{Extreme_points_of_Europe}} box are redirects to sections of larger articles. XOR'easter (talk) 19:10, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- I would be OK to merging this into Denmark (or wherever) once the sourcing issue is dealt with. Mangoe (talk) 21:13, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- comment on other pages I've looked at a handful of the European examples, and so far Andorra is the only example with sourcing at all. Mangoe (talk) 21:27, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Merge to Geography of Denmark as an editorial decision; that article should include much of this information and currently does not. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 18:10, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- Merge to Geography of Denmark. The same has been done with many other European countries. Exceptions make sense in the cases of big countries with many dependencies (ie. Norway), but for most countries this is information that should be listed on the respective geography page, imo. Kaffe42 (talk) 12:18, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

Non-notable television film, lacking significant coverage per WP:NF BOVINEBOY2008 15:18, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

- Keep, Review at Dread Central, critic rating at Allmovie, both are WP:RS. Another review at Horror Forever [[1]], although not sure it has been vetted for being a RS. Donaldd23 (talk) 15:45, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- Can you link the Allmovie review? I cannot seem to find it. The other link you provided is clearly a blog, it is run by blogger. Either way, the two critic reviews are supposed to be indications that there is significant coverage of the film. Despite this, it is nearly impossible to find articles talking about this film. I don't think this film meets the "significant coverage" part explained by WP:NF or WP:GNG. Am I missing a lot of sources? BOVINEBOY2008 16:17, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- [[2]], it only has an Allmovie rating (1.5 stars out of 5), but no review published. I've seen other AfD's where only the rating is needed. Donaldd23 (talk) 16:55, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- NFO stipulates that the review should be by a national recognized critic. If we don't have a by-line, I'm not sure we should consider that a measure of its notability. BOVINEBOY2008 17:15, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- Per [[3]], Allmovie is considered a WP:RS and can be used toward notability. Donaldd23 (talk) 17:48, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- Coverage in a reliable source does not mean notability. We also have to look at the significance of coverage. Having a star rating with no other information amounts to a capsule review which is not an indication of notability. BOVINEBOY2008 18:02, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

- Roman_Spinner, I actually checked all the citation and came to a different conclusion. In fact, I concluded--in line with BOVINEBOY--that the article is poorly sourced. The sources are about an actor, not the movie. WP:UNRS is a good read on the sources... As to the Conroy, please read this: WP:NOTINHERITED. It is an important concept of WP:ATA. Thank you! Kolma8 (talk) 15:30, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep, I've added another source, a Wired article. I disagree with the nominator in that the interviews are non-notable. NemesisAT (talk) 22:41, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
- NemesisAT... Well... You did not added a "Wired article", but a blogpost from Wired.com. There is a difference. And if you actually read that the blogpost says then you will see that it is an aggregation of google searches. Blogposts in general do not meet criteria for reliable citations on WP. Kindly ask you to refer to WP:UGC for more details. In general WP:RS is a good read that can help you to understand BOVINEBOY's position on the matters in regards of the notability of the sources. Kolma8 (talk) 15:22, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: per nom. I did my own WP:BEFORE and failed to find anything notable. Four external links: One to Feiss IMDB page (irrelevant, needs to be deleted); one to the short's IMDB (relevant); one to Rotten Tomatoes site (404 - NOT FOUND, needs to be deleted); the last one "Extracts..." is irrelevant and needs to go. None of the sources neither directly about the short or notable. Thus, fails WP:NF. Kolma8 (talk) 15:39, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Article about a band, not properly sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. This was erroneously tagged for speedy deletion on the claim that "the 2010 album that won the award was an album by a different band" -- except cursory investigation revealed that the "other" band was actually just this band having renamed itself, so that's not grounds for deletion per se. But what is a genuine problem is that the award in question isn't even a nationally significant one for the purposes of WP:NMUSIC #8 in the first place, and is sourced to the awarding organization's own self-published content about itself rather than any evidence that it's an award that garners media coverage in order to be notable enough to confer notability on its winners -- and the other two footnotes here are also both primary sources rather than notability-building media coverage. And about all I can find for other coverage is blog entries rather than solid or notability-building media coverage. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the band from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat (talk) 18:23, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

- Delete all the sources given are dubious and most likely the result of press release churn and paid placement. He has no independent coverage in reliable sources. --- Possibly ☎ 21:02, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Sources are neither independent not reliable. Article claims coverage in the NYT, but https://www.nytimes.com/search?query=%22Roman+Feral%22 yields nothing. That "worldwide expansion in over 18 galleries" Guess who has venues in London, Monaco, Miami, New York, Courchevel, Megeve, Cannes, Honfleur? Galeries Bartoux is an international group with 18 galleries, according to itself. Also note that https://cranyz.com/international-artist-roman-feral-combines-luxury-nature/ and https://www.justluxe.com/lifestyle/arts/feature-1969082.php are the same article, only in different languages. Thought we wouldn't notice? Vexations (talk) 20:48, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete, though I must say an 'interesting' strategy to accept a draft from Articles for Creation then immediately nominate it for deletion! This artist is possibly on the cusp of notability but, realistically, the only news source of any repute is Forbes and only a couple of paragraphs about Feral in that article. The other sources I'd say were 'stuff on the internet' or sources with a clear vested interest. I can't find anything else obvious online to persuade me otherwise. Sionk (talk) 23:26, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete the collections are not in major galleries as is required by WP:NARTIST and the sources are obvious churnalism - the Forbes article mentioned above is a contributor piece and no more useful for notability than a random blog post.

I am just the beginner and want to contribute to wikipedia. But i was wrong, wikipedia is full of people who instead of encouraging people, they will discourage and not only discourage but also criticize for the things which new users never commit. Hence, i am really sorry that i tried contributing to wikipedia and you can delete my article. Thanks for letting me know that their is no scope for new editors or users. Not only this, but just now i realized that all my previous genuine edits were also removed without any reasons.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Research531 (talk • contribs)

Fails WP:NLIST, which states a list must have been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources
. Note the sources plural. The only organization discussing these as a group is in fact Playboy itself. We are not a directory of Playboy models. All it seems to be doing is listing a bunch of non-notable women, which opens up the doors to all sorts of BLP issues, and then just lists their body measurements, an obviously sexual detail. I fail to see how it is in any way encyclopedic. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 19:40, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

- Delete Articles about small groups (like Family of Barack Obama) work well when the subjects have received significant RS coverage as a set, and the article omits irrelevant personal details. This on the other hand is twelve pseudobiographies stapled together. The sources suggested by Pburka contain information about various Playboy magazine models, but not about the particular group of people who were featured in 2019. I share the nominator's view of the body measurement parameters in Template:Infobox Playboy Playmate. Cheers, gnu57 22:27, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- We have lists of of Playboy Playmates for every year from 1954 through 2019, presumably split up due to WP:SIZE. Is it your position that some of these sublists are notable, but not 2019? pburka (talk) 23:32, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- I think that the general concept Playboy Playmate is probably notable, and that some individual Playboy models may warrant stand-alone BLPs, but the format of the year-by-year lists allows for a lot of low-quality pseudo-bios of non-notable people. (List of people in Playboy 2010–2020 is a somewhat better format IMO.) gnu57 04:37, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Unsure at this time. Surely there are past AfDs of porn individuals in which editors have voted "Redirect to List of such-and-such...", so I would be hesitant to undercut a likely landing spot for numerous incoming redirects. But the current format is wasteful fanboy bloat. Who shot the pics is irrelevant, as is their body measurements. Toss those, toss the entire "personal details" infobox, retain the name, the pictorial month, and date and place of birth. Once all this is on a single line, you could easily do List of Playboy Playmates (2010-2019) and condense sixty-six(!) articles into eight. If there's interest, I could try to mock up what the 2010-19 one would look like in a sandbox. Zaathras (talk) 04:11, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Weak KeepDelete: Updated my vote 7.29 based on discussion below. Based on my interpretation of WP:NFOOTY Players who have played, and managers who have managed, in a competitive game between two teams from fully professional leagues will generally be regarded as notable..

This is now the third version of this article or draft, and the second version was just recently draftified (by me) in April. All three versions merely state the existence of the upcoming film and a small cast list. 1st draft (Draft:Madhagaja) created in January, 2nd article (Draft:Madhagaja (film)) created in April and draftified per AfD, and now this article just created in July. While WP:Parallel histories are fine, I have to wonder if there is some kind of payout being sought for creation of the article if people are not willing to build off one of two drafts already there. -2pou (talk) 17:20, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

PROD contested with reasoning No Wikipedia page is covering appearances as a collective and contract dates. For that reason, it should be allowed to stay.
Rationale was No need for a stand-alone article on the current squad. Manchester United F.C. covers this perfectly well enough. I also don't see this functioning as a redirect.
As far as I can see, this remains valid. The squad can be updated on 2021–22 Manchester United F.C. season as transfers happen. No need for a separate article covering this. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 14:50, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

I was not allowed to add total current club appearances and goals on the club page. I would be happy to add it in a format agreed by others but such a statistic cannot be found as a collective elsewhere. --Chats90 (talk) 15:52, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Chats90: it is incredibly poor form to simply start a new article to display the information you want, if there is consensus at an existing article not to have that information. Such conduct, if repeated, would be viewed as disruptive and would lead to you being blocked. GiantSnowman 16:21, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
The information has correct citations from the Man Utd website. Wikipedia belongs to everyone, sure you can go ahead get the article deleted. You make up your own rules then threaten bans for anyone that does not conform to your wishes (others as well). Not even once has anyone told, "hey if you want to make a contribution let's figure out how we can add those statistics to a page, all I have been met with is unwarranted criticism and unhelpful comments of how this information is not useful". There would be no need to block me as I officially give up. I don't have time to fight ego wars. I have decided to stay away from Wikipedia altogether. You insist that this format is not allowed yet I find it on pages of hundreds of other clubs. Perhaps I have misunderstood the goal of Wikipedia, either way, it doesn't matter. The only thing that is poor form here is this relentless bullying. I will not be getting involved in this toxic contribution cycle. Thanks for all your hard work and others in the past. --Chats90 (talk) 16:44, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- Most of the info is on the encyclopaedia already but just in different places. For cumulative appearances, we have List of Manchester United F.C. players, List of Manchester United F.C. players (25–99 appearances) and List of Manchester United F.C. players (1–24 appearances) - you are more then welcome to maintain these lists and to help keep them up to date and to add new entries where appropriate. I'm sorry that you feel bullied, this was 100% not my intention. I started this discussion in the hope of gaining consensus. Wikipedia works by consensus. Whilst having a separate article on a squad hasn't been done before, it isn't a case of 'it will never be done' but such an idea would need to gain consensus from the community. This deletion discussion is a place where any editor can come in and make their views clear on the subject. I still, personally, believe that this information is better in the articles that they already in and that having a separate article for a current squad is unnecessary but that's only my opinion.

I don't understand what the Google Scholar link above means or how it relates to him -- there are articles listed there from before he was born (the first article is from 1995, while the subject was born in 2003). Not to mention, this article is about him being a musician, not an academic (it would be difficult for a 17-year-old to be an extensively published scholar). Most of the citations in this article are just links to his own music or unreliable sites such as Medium.com. I don't think he qualifies for an article at this time. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:38, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. User:Spiderone, the google scholar profile, while impressive, is also a fake (none of the listed papers I checked have him as an author) or a hijack (possibly of Rifat Atun, not sure). It is also a poorly done fake, as it has him writing academic papers from before his birth (e.g. papers from 1995, Rabbi was born in 2003 according to the article). As for the musician side he lacks significant coverage and this is corroborated by the YouTube test - he has 9 subscribers on YouTube and all of the videos have less than 100 views.--Eostrix (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 16:46, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

- The profiles on Google scholar are, in my understanding, user generated. You need to verify your e-mail, but it will let you add any paper to your profile. They might cull bad profiles by some process, but in most cases real researchers won't post fake profiles of themselves, e.g. claiming authorship of someone else's papers, as that would be plagiarism and a large academic scandal. Note that the papers themselves, and citation counts thereof, are harder to fake. It is the user profiles (and associating papers to user profiles) that are the user generated portion. They probably allow users to associate papers to deal with names changes, differing names forms (e.g. full name, or initialed), and names in multiple languages (particularly non-Latin names).--Eostrix (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 17:22, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, Google (being Google) finds a lot of publication information by scraping, but the profile pages can be modified manually to a considerable extent. For example, their system might not be able to tell that two different papers are really the same (say, if one is really just a preprint version of the other). So, they offer the option of merging items. It's also possible that a paper will show up in their system with author names missing (maybe if it was cited with an "et al."), so you can claim papers as yours even when the system doesn't automatically find them. In this case, it looks like someone created a profile entirely by claiming papers from other people. We've got soil bacteria, psychiatry, oncology, control theory, some pure mathematics ... The common factor appears to be that an author on each was named "Rifat". XOR'easter (talk) 21:16, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

- Delete This doesn't seem to be an idea actually used in psychology, and it fails the WP:FRINGE standard of being wiki-notable pseudoscience. The first source is an interview with Christopher Langan on a random website for day-trading hobbyists; we'd really have to stretch to call that reliable. The third is self-published, as the nominator pointed out. The one in the middle is the closest to decent: it's a blog post by a subject-matter expert hosted by a publication with at least some standards. It also indicates that the topic is nonsense. The article currently says
This theory is usually attributed to psychologist Leta Stetter Hollingworth
. The blog post says:As far as I can tell, the idea of the 2 standard deviation IQ communication range did not start with Leta Hollingworth. Hollingworth (1886 – 1939) was a pioneering psychologist who did conduct research on high IQ individuals and published extensively on the topic; however, she never used the term ‘communication range’ nor explicitly discussed such an idea.
Instead, the term was coined by some guy writing in the magazine of a high-IQ society.Hollingworth was writing specifically about leadership, and in childen, but Towers extrapolates the point to claim that any kind of ‘genuine’ communication is impossible across a 30 IQ point gap. [...] The reference to specific numbers (“+/- 2 standard deviations, 30 points”) gives the illusion of scientific precision, but these numbers were plucked from the air.
Wikipedia is not the place for things made up one day in an attempt to blame other people for one's own failures of communication.

hexadecyl is not a notable topic in itself. It is part of many chemicals, some of which are notable, but as a group or radical, there are almost no writings. ChemSpider entries show nothing for notability as it aims to list everything. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 13:13, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete; if the article were a well-balanced, well-written overview of the distribution of the hexadecyl group in nature, its properties, and the importance of chemicals that contain it, I'd suggest keeping it. But as it stands, the article can't decide whether it's about a group or a radical, and is merely a handful of odds-and-ends. Compare to the (good) article on the Phenyl group.

- Merge though I prefer target of Hexadecane, or possibly create a new target on "large alkyl groups" (whatever the term for that is). There is the WP:XY issue regarding Hexadecane being the target as opposed to Alkyl. The group is rare enough that I think hexadecane is the better place to discuss it, and alkyls with >12 carbons aren't even mentioned at alkyl. Most of the content looks to be a bad attempt at a literature review and can be removed. Also also, the title really should have been "Hexadecyl group".

Oppose The article cites a number of reliable sources and acts as a useful collection of information from a regional perspective. I think the article should be reduced to a stub as an alternative to deletion. Michaeltyu (talk) 01:13, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
- Stubbing is not an "alternative to deletion". If a person or thing clears our notability criteria at all, then their article is always allowed to be as long or as short as the depth of what the sources enable us to say — but there's no such thing as "notable enough to keep a stub but not notable enough to justify adding to it any further".

- Delete. The sourcing is not solid enough to get Williamson over WP:GNG — his acting is sourced solely to his IMDb profile, which is not a source that helps to establish the notability of an actor, and the stuff about the coffeeshop is sourced entirely to specialist franchising industry newsletters, most of which just briefly namecheck Doug Williamson as a giver of soundbite in an article that is not about him. And of the just two sources that are actually about him in any non-trivial way, both come from specialist franchising business newsletters which aren't widely distributed enough to bring the GNG all by themselves if they're the best sourcing he has — they'd be fine for use amid a mix of much more solid sourcing, but they don't magically clear the bar all by themselves if they are the most solid sources on offer. Neither actors nor businesspeople are automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just for having jobs per se, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have any better references than this.

Can't find any evidence that he ever played in Liga 1 (Indonesia) anywhere.

There is, therefore, not any clear indication anywhere that he actually meets WP:NFOOTBALL.

Doesn't meet WP:NFOOTBALL and searches under both 'Aaron Lyall' and 'Arron Lyall' do not yield any significant coverage in line with WP:GNG. The only possible ATD would be a move to draft space, however, the article is over 3 months old so I didn't feel it appropriate to send to draft myself. Deletion is also a valid option, in my view, as future notability is never guaranteed.

Not notable per WP:Notability (organizations and companies) — no significant coverage, no independent sources, no multiple sources, no reliable sources no secondary sources.
- When I first looked at this article I found 19 of 29 citations pointed to the subject's own website (faunalytics.org), 1 to GuideStar.org (which is mostly self-published information), 9 to animalcharityevaluators.org (which is an animal rights advocacy website purporting to be similar to GuideStar, and certainly not independent of this subject), and not a single citation to an outside independent source.
- A web search brought up only mentions within the same advocacy field (vested interest), mostly brief and trivial mentions, and nothing independent. (See WP:ORGDEPTH.)

- The nominator's points are mostly good criticisms of the article, but not WP:DELREASONs. Deletion is no substitute for cleanup.

- Per NCORP,
"Primary sources cannot be used to establish notability. In a business setting, frequently encountered primary sources include: corporate annual or financial reports, ... interviews by executives..."
. The four sources you link to are (1) an interview with two Faunalytics corporate execs, (2) an article with some quotes from an interview with a Faunalytics exec, mentions Faunalytics but doesn't cover the topic of the company Faunalytics, (3) another interview with a Faunalytics exec, (4) iffy source because the 'reviewer website' deals only to rate/rank animal rights organizations and all the links in their source report fail with 404 error (many of the links are purported to be copies of the corporate financial reports). Note also that the wiki article for Animal Charity Evaluators also had two AfDs, one of which was adjudicated as Delete for lack of notability, so it's pretty iffy to consider using ACE as a citation contributing towards notability. So you have not yet presented a single source which contributes to corporate notability (NCORP) which requires that the organization"has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject."
Beware that all those other animal rights articles on the web which "mention" Faunalytics are not sufficiently independent and are engaging in circular reasoning and/or using the logical fallacy of argument from authority. Platonk (talk) 03:43, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
- Per NCORP,
- Note that WP:GNG does not require secondary sources to be notable themselves. I don't follow how any ref would engage in fallacies or be dependent when they describe what Faunalytics does. Nonprofit Chronicles is not even specialised in animal advocacy, and if it was, so what? There is no rule against SIGCOV coming from the same industry, as long as they are independent of the subject, which they are. 4 is the HTML version of an in-depth review of Faunalytics. It comes out as 12 pages of text if you print it. I don't see why a few dead links from that page are a problem.
- The book (5) Cherry 2016 also spends two paragraphs on Faunalytics and its impact[2] ⠀Trimton⠀ 13:17, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

- Platonk Thanks for explaining. Yes, I was referring to the sources I listed, not to the article. The refs in article do not prove notability, I think. I haven't worked my sources 1-5 into it.
- You seem to be arguing that we need tertiary sources, not secondary ones, for notability. Not so. WP:GNG requires secondary sources as defined by WP:SECONDARY (linked at GNG):
A secondary source provides an author's own thinking based on primary sources, generally at least one step removed from an event. It contains an author's analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources.
1, 4 and 5 are all secondary on that definition, since all haveevaluation
andsynthesis
and areone step removed
from Faunalytics (two in the case of (5)). - 4 and 5 are somewhat tertiary since they cite independent secondary sources.
- I anticipate you might argue that 1, 4 or 5 are unreliable, next. Just note that not citing sources, like (1), does not imply unreliability. All the claims made in the secondary part of (1), they can have easily verified with their own eyes (e.g. what kind or reports Faunalytics has published). (4), the Animal Charity Evaluators review, verified some info such as financial data with sources independent of Faunalytics, they write, but again, that is not necessary for being secondary or reliable. They are reliable and secondary. They provide literally 12 pages of
evaluation
. (5), the book about animal activism by Elizabeth Cherry from 2016, mentions Faunalytics only in the sections I quoted above, but, in my view, constitutes significant coverage. Cherry is two stepsremoved
from Faunalytics since the author discusses (the impact of) Faunalytics based on interviews with people working at other charities. I don't have the book either, I got the quotes from the Google Books preview. Published by a reliable publisher (Routledge).⠀Trimton⠀ 18:05, 29 July 2021 (UTC)- Trimton There is no argument for needing tertiary sources by Platonk or anyone else. I think that is a misunderstanding on your part. Also, Platonk and I have noted that as soon as a source engages in interview and/or quotations - these are not usually considered secondary or independent sources because the relevant material comes from an employee or executive of the company.
- Additionally, routine information such as financials, financing, number of employees, etc. does not indicate notability. This is emphasized in WP:ORG, and more specifically emphasized in WP:ORGDEPTH. I would appreciate it if you would read ORGDEPTH, because you seem to be ignoring it.
- Platonk brought up ORGDEPTH right away in reference to the links you added to thIS AfD. And I agree with their assessment. For example, the Non-Profit Chronicles source, your number one, titles the article "Faunalytics..."
- However, the opening paragraphs generally discuss American meat consumption and health warnings. Then the company Faunalytics is very briefly described and is not in-depth or significant coverage. In that source, this is followed by interviews of company executives, Che Green and Caryn Ginsberg, which takes up most of the page.
- And the topics discussed by the executives are about different types of advocacy - not the company. Even if they did discuss the company in more detail, that would be considered a primary source because they are connected to the company (See ORGDEPTH). Moreover, it appears this source generally engages in advocacy for non-profits. So I question its reliability anyway. For example, it is not the New York Times or the Washington Post.
- It seems we all agree that your next two sources are not acceptable for the reasons stated above. Your fourth source, Animal Charity Evaluators appears to me to be unacceptable. This is because all their critiques, evaluations, and conclusions are based on information supplied by Faunalytics. To see what I mean, here is the research page posted by Animal Charity Evaluators. Also, Platonk posted a couple of documents that support this view [29], [30].
- Finally, I have to agree that your book source, your number 5, indicates only passing mentions, and yes, this is only a book preview. ----Steve Quinn (talk) 01:03, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- Steve Quinn I didn't engage with WP:ORGDEPTH because it isn't required for notability. To cite WP:N,
A topic is presumed to merit an article if:
It meets either the general notability guideline (GNG) below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific notability guideline (SNG) listed in the box on the right; and
It is not excluded under the WP:What Wikipedia is not policy.
This is not a guarantee that a topic will necessarily be handled as a separate, stand-alone page. Editors may use their discretion to merge or group two or more related topics into a single article.
- So to delete, you have to show that Faunalytics fails both GNG and ORGDEPTH, or meets something in What Wikipedia is Not. have you done that?
- ---->what this debate comes down to, it seems, is that you say 1 and 5 arent substantial coverage, which would fail both GNG and ORGDEPTH. I disagree.
- If I am correct on that, then Faunalytics passes GNG (not sure about orgdepth, but as i showed, that's not necessary). You haven't refuted my point that 1,4,5 are WP:SECONDARY since they do synthesis and evaluation. I agree that Platonk did not demand tertiary sources. Platonk just seemed to suggest that sources can't contribute to notability if they rely on primary sources, when Platonk said "(4) is based on a Faunalytics-provided Q&A written-response interview and financial reports". But I don't know why Platonk took issue with (4) using interviews as sources, since they didn't say what exactly is wrong with that. ⠀Trimton⠀ 08:20, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- Steve Quinn I didn't engage with WP:ORGDEPTH because it isn't required for notability. To cite WP:N,
- I notice you are trying to emphasize that sources 1 and 4 are secondary, and I have shown they are not. I don't need to repeat myself. I provided an in-depth analysis of those sources above. Additionally, ORGDEPTH is notability criteria and is required for notability. As you noted SNGs are valid notability criteria.
- WP:ORG (also WP:CORP) is an SNG which is "
...the criteria outlined in a subject-specific notability guideline (SNG) listed in the box on the right.
" If a source fails ORGDEPTH it fails notability. WP:ORG and ORGDEPTH exist specifically because GNG can be sidestepped when dealing with organizations.
- WP:ORG (also WP:CORP) is an SNG which is "
- Also, your first source fails GNG as well as ORGCRITE and SIRS. The interview with company executives make that a primary source that is not independent of the company. It was already stated above "Per NCORP, "
Primary sources cannot be used to establish notability. In a business setting, frequently encountered primary sources include: corporate annual or financial reports, ... interviews by executives.
"
- Also, your first source fails GNG as well as ORGCRITE and SIRS. The interview with company executives make that a primary source that is not independent of the company. It was already stated above "Per NCORP, "
- The first part of that source discusses subjects that are general and not specifically Faunalytics. Although the title of the article is Faunalytics, it is not significantly about Faunalytics. I already explained this above.
- The fourth source, I have explained, is based on information provided by Faunalytics. This again makes that document not independent of the company. That is a GNG issue as well as ORGCRITE, SIRS and ORGDEPTH issue. The fifth source, when I say it is not significant coverage means that it also fails GNG.
- And once again, if a topic fails WP:ORG, ORDEPTH, ORGCRITE or SIRS then it fails notability. This is because people play the "reliable source" game or the "secondary" game. Additionally, above I already stated sources "...are not...considered secondary or independent sources because the relevant material comes from an employee or executive of the company." This discounts GNG as well as ORG.
- The only secondary source I am seeing is the book. To claim the other sources are secondary is misleading. To claim the first source is significant coverage is misleading. Regarding the book, I have deemed this is passing mention and Platonk has said the same thing.
- Significant coverage is a GNG issue as well as a ORGCRITE, SIRS, and ORGDEPTH issue. Being a secondary source, or even a "reliable source", is not the only criteria that determines notability. And if you want to argue the book (source #5) is significant coverage that is still not enough for notability. Multiple independent secondary sources are required for notability. But I do not agree the book is significant coverage ---Steve Quinn (talk) 13:28, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- It seems the point I have been making has not been understood from the outset. GNG states "
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.
" So here, in the GNG criteria is the necessity of being independent of the subject.
- It seems the point I have been making has not been understood from the outset. GNG states "
- Material garnered only from the company (as the only source), or interviews with executives or employees, demonstrate the lack of independence of the source. Even GNG says, "
Independent of the subject excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it...
"
- Material garnered only from the company (as the only source), or interviews with executives or employees, demonstrate the lack of independence of the source. Even GNG says, "
- Since it seems there is a need to be specific here - the company or executives or employees providing the only material about the topic (the company) are works produced by those who are affiliated with the company.
- It could also be said senior executives are essentially the company and information in the form of interviews, quotes, and data - are works produced by the company. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 13:54, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- To further support this angle: per WP:ORGIND,
"Independence of the content (or intellectual independence): the content must not be produced by interested parties. Too often a related party produces a narrative that is then copied, regurgitated, and published in whole or in part by independent parties (as exemplified by churnalism). Independent content, in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject."
I repeat for emphasis, clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. Platonk (talk) 14:09, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- To further support this angle: per WP:ORGIND,
- Keep In addition to the sources brought above, this is an in-depth discussion of research by Faunalytics and the 2021 book "Vegetarian and Vegan Diets: Your Questions Answered" by Alice Richer at a respectable publisher refers to Faunalytics and its research throughout. gidonb (talk) 12:53, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
- Your first offering fails RS because it is an opinion piece and doesn't rate being a citation in an article let alone contributing towards notability. Your second offering fails CORPDEPTH because the author only cites findings in Faunalytics-authored reports to support whatever she is writing about in her book, but doesn't cover the topic of Faunalytics itself as a company in any depth — merely introducing it as a "nonprofit market research organization" and "dedicated to helping animals". Platonk (talk) 15:32, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
- And there is much more, for example Culture and Activism: Animal Rights in France and the United States, Elizabeth Cherry, 2016 at Taylor & Francis. This book discusses Faunalytics at even more length. This nomination is so weak that it is best withdrawn. gidonb (talk) 23:24, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

- Delete. His Google Scholar profile shows too few citations for WP:PROF#C1, one self-published book with no reviews that I can find isn't going to pass WP:AUTHOR, and I can find no other suggestion of notability. That all said, copying and pasting the identical nomination statement on seven rapid-fire AfDs [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] doesn't make a strong case that the nominator has considered these cases individually or done the searching requested by WP:BEFORE.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Does not, and will not, meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for organizations.
Hillsong College is the training program of Hillsong Church. Since the creation of the article a decade and a half ago, there has not emerged sufficient coverage in reputable independent sources (press releases from Hillsong Church do not count) to justify its retention. There are, to be sure, occasional passing references in news media -- for example, there was a recent flurry of articles about a graduate of Hillsong College who died of COVID-19 after publicly deriding the vaccine -- but the overwhelming majority of news coverage tends to be either plainly tangential (as in the previous example) or focused on Hillsong Church (with the "college" merely an afterthought).
Under the general notability guidelines, Hillsong College does not have much of a chance. If regarded as a college or university, it is true that "[m]ost independently accredited degree-awarding institutions have enough coverage to be notable, although that coverage may not be readily available online." (WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES.) However, I have to question that point as well: institutions of higher education in Australia are regulated by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency. Hillsong College is "accredited" by the Australian Skills Quality Authority, which regulates vocational education in Australia. I can think of no similar training program with a Wikipedia page -- there are "vocational education" organizations with Wikipedia pages, though most of those are closer to polytechnic institutes and overlap heavily with other realms of higher education -- the closest that I can think of in terms of specialization is Hamburger University, and even then there are any number of reliable sources from which to choose. Hillsong College has none.
The article itself has changed little since its creation: unsourced, with occasional bursts of enthusiasm from new editors (some of whom may have been affiliated with Hillsong), reverts of the most egregious promotional material, and some occasional small grammar edits. Nobody has found a single reliable source on the subject despite the fact that the article's been online since 2007. I suggest deletion and a redirect to Hillsong Church.

Disagree. Plenty of things that weren't notable last week are this week. That said, such an argument is usually used to suggest salting a title and the nominator certainly hasn't suggested that here.

- Comment. Karama works at the interface of clinical genetics and neurology, both of which have extremely high citation rates -- there are people with bachelor's working as techs who have h-indices over 20. I am running the Scopus citation metrics now but I strongly suspect he will come out well below the median among his hundreds of coauthors. Pinging David Eppstein and Eostrix in case they want to look into this further as well. JoelleJay (talk) 17:55, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- After looking at the 73 coauthors (with ≥20 papers) just from Karama's most recent two publications, I'm getting an average citation count of 13685 (median 8442) and h-index of 46 (median 44). This is compared to Karama's metrics of 3679 citations and h-index of 32. I would very strongly discourage using his citation profile as evidence of meeting C1. JoelleJay (talk) 18:09, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- Weak delete. The subject has one highly cited but highly coauthored paper that he is first author on. Middle author on a highly coauthored paper doesn't convince me of so much. I think it's a bit WP:TOOSOON for WP:NPROF C1; no other signs of notability. I hope the nominator did a careful WP:BEFORE on each article before batching them for AfD. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 18:30, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Here are the Scopus citation metrics for 328 of his coauthors with 30+ papers (postdocs and PhD students with <50 papers removed), collected from all of his publications with fewer than 25 authors, AND the 5 or so most recent mega-collab papers:

- weak keep not a as clear cut as it seems on the first glance. While there are many co-authored publications, there are also a sufficient number of first author pubs with high citation count. Still, this is within a high citation field and most of his papers are with 20-50 authors, making it hard to identify individual contributions. --hroest 14:34, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. I looked at the 151 coauthors with ≥25 papers from the 73 papers with ≤25 authors out of his most recent 125 papers (whew!). He is well above the average in Scopus citation metrics:
- Total citations: average: 10003, median: 2958, McDonald: 17453. Total papers: avg: 160, med: 91, M: 245. h-index: avg: 38, med: 26, M: 57.

- The coauthor values do skew low due to the paper cutoff and publication recency likely catching a lot of postdocs and students; however, I think his profile is robust enough to maintain exception over his peers even if I did a true "average professor" test.

- Weak delete. His Google Scholar profile shows two publications with over 100 citations, but one of them is a book by someone else. Discounting that, one highly-cited publication is probably not enough. That all said, copying and pasting the identical nomination statement on seven rapid-fire AfDs [59] [60] [61] [62] [63] [64] [65] doesn't make a strong case that the nominator has considered these cases individually or done the searching requested by WP:BEFORE. So although I tend to agree with the nominator in this case, I think a trout may still be due. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:00, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- Weak delete. The subject appears to have one somewhat influential book, but no other notability is apparent. Looks like a WP:BLP1E.

- Good question. I confess that I missed that statement from the article. (I was distracted by the malformed ref). But the criterion asks for a "major, well-established" journal. I think that a journal that appears to have been started in approx. 2016 fails the "well-established" part. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 01:26, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

- Weak delete. No evidence of notability; searching Google Scholar for author:jr-de-lima-andrade found what look like his publications, but without enough citations to justify WP:PROF#C1. "Director General of the School of Public Administration and Management of the State of Sergipe" might make a claim to #C6 if that were a significant standalone institute, but I can barely verify that the "Escola de Administração Pública e Gestão Governamental de Sergipe" exists, and I doubt "Secretary of State for Tourism of Sergipe" passes WP:NPOL.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Does not appear to meet notability standards. The 2011 census handbook for the district doesn't list a Dhanehi anywhere, although it does list the Mawai mentioned in the article as a separate village. I can find it on the map, but the map in the census handbook (p. 365) seems to indicate that this spot falls within the village of Mawai, or possibly the neighboring village of Sareni instead. I assume that Dhanehi is merely a hamlet within one of those two villages, and thus has no official recognition that WP:GEO requires. A cursory web search also turns up nothing except a "Sarai Dhanehi" in Faizabad district, and the usual auto-generated "Weather in X" pages, which doesn't indicate that it meets WP:GNG either. 3 kids in a trenchcoat (talk) 04:05, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Single play from a basketball game that has not (at least as of yet) gained notability from outside sources. While this article is well sourced, all but one of these sources are routine coverage of the 2021 NBA Finals and not specific to this play. The one posted source that does go into more detail about the play only quotes Giannis Antetokounmpo calling this play a “big-time steal” Hardly the significant coverage required for a play to have its own article. A google search of “The Steal” 2021 NBA Finals shows very little coverage outside of routine coverage of the steal sealing game 5. No significance beyond this game is shown in any articles (even after the Bucks won the series) and only one opinion piece uses the term “The Steal.” Frank AnchorTalk 02:17, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

- Pointing out that other articles exist is not a valid argument in AFD debates. And even so, a Google search of "The Steal" "Jrue Holiday" only has about 10% of the results of a similar search of "The Block" "LeBron James". And most of the first page of results on the "The Steal" search are routine coverage that simply describe this steal as any other steal (e.g. "Jrue Holiday for the steal." and "Holiday told reporters about the steal.")

I'm seeing tons of English-langauge coverage revolving around her involvement in politics, as you say mostly related to the 1998 legal case but also more recent activities, including defamation cases, candidacies, etc. She has seemingly stayed in the news until 2015 at least, which makes me wonder about the existence of extensive non-English Malaysian sources. The way she is discussed, including in the academic source I looked at, suggest she is widely perceived as an important Malaysian public figure. Here's some sources I looked at: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5, opinion, but seemingly useful context) (6) (7) Among others from The Star (Malaysia)... looks like other coverage in Sinar Harian as well, although I didn't dig deep into Google Translating much of that.

- I admit that I do not know how to evaluate these sources. Nor can I figure out how to write an article that would meet the BLP requirements, except that the present article does not. . DGG ( talk ) 04:58, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- I agree it's tricky without more context. I left a note on WikiProject Malaysia. Suriname0 (talk) 14:51, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting to hopefully allow for further analysis of the sourcing and improvement to the article. As the article stands, my personal view is that it is a BLP violation, so I'm not happy to close as a weak no consensus or similar. Hopefully either the article can be improved based off these sources (once they are analyzed for reliability and significance), or alternatively a consensus forms to take some other affirmative action.

DeleteSelective Merge and Redirect Based on my research in English-language sources (and review of and revisions to the article), it has been difficult to find much encyclopedic content that is more than WP:NOTSCANDAL about Ali or related to her various allegations against a variety of other people, which raises WP:BLP concerns, e.g.it is not Wikipedia's job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives
. While independent and reliable sources suggest she had a major role in the Anwar Ibrahim sodomy trials, due to making allegations that were key to the prosecution (e.g. CBS News, CNN/AsiaWeek, NYT, BBC News, The Guardian), (and then later retracting them, e.g. BBC News), it appears that her primary means of remaining high-profile since then is by continuing to make allegations against other people, or to have allegations raised against her, but WP:NOTSCANDAL, WP:NOTNEWS, and WP:BLP weigh against inclusion of this content. Information from independent and reliable sources about her role in the trial could be merged into the article about the trial, and a redirect may be appropriate.

- I would support a Merge and Redirect. If someone wanted to tackle the challenge of writing a bio about her more recent activities without violating WP:BLP, they're welcome to do so. Suriname0 (talk) 04:08, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. Passes WP:Prof and WP:Author. Inadequate reasons given for nomination. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:27, 26 July 2021 (UTC).
- Keep. I'm not sure of WP:PROF#C1 (citations don't look high) but it doesn't matter: he passes #C8 (editor-in-chief of notable journal) and also WP:AUTHOR (multiple published reviews of his books, easily found for instance on JSTOR). —David Eppstein (talk) 05:40, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep, per PROF-8 as editor of The American Economist. There is also a prize named after him.--Eostrix (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 07:25, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

- The SARS Network (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This entire article might be original research. The article is not written in an encyclopedic way but more like an essay. It uses some sources that only tangentially relate to the subject and much of the text seems to be unsourced. Some parts that are sourced seem to be plagiarized such as the sentences "Despite this estimate..." and "Instead, initial seeding...". The user who wrote the article did so in May 2014 and has not done anything else. This article was briefly discussed at the Medicine WikiProject here, where two other users believed it was original research and a coatrack article. When searching for "SARS network", most results pertain to networks of people or organizations that collaborated to study or respond to SARS and secondarily to some stuff involving music.

- Delete Appears to be an essay with substantial copy-and-pasting from its sources. The sentences mentioned in the nomination were lifted from here; "One of the striking features..." was lifted from here. So was the rest of the paragraph after "patients are infectious only after they exhibit symptoms". Overall, the article starts with vague generalities about network theory and segues into plagiarism. Nor is the choice of title very good. The term "SARS network" might better refer to the network of people who worked to identify its source (see, e.g., this Science story from 2003). But even that sense is rare. XOR'easter (talk) 00:33, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure whether this company is notable enough for an article. They solely conduct research and do not produce or sell any anything, so their revenue comes exclusively through investments and partnerships, but it isn't clear if their research has contributed to anything notable. Most secondary sources seem to be standard business press releases of their activities or company listings/databases, and the company has only rarely been mentioned independently. Their research also has a "too good to be true" kind of thing going on with some questionable premises, which may turn out to be legitimate but for the time being seem fringe and like every startup promoting the next best thing.

- Delete. On a wiki-policy level, this does not have significant coverage in secondary sources, it only has passing mention in a very small handful of sources, many of which are promotional and not independent of the company, which is also a requirement of GNG. So it easily fails GNG. On a scientific level, this drug is no different from the many other small molecule drugs developed around COVID. 99% will fail in pre-clinicals. 99.9% will fail by the time RCTs come back. So this article very likely does not have a future. I've spent a lot of time thinking about this, as someone who got a PhD developing antivirals and vaccines against emerging pathogens.--Shibbolethink (♔ ♕) 23:50, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:ORGCRIT and WP:SIRS. Lacks enough significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Probably too soon for its own article at this time. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 21:05, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
