The result was keep. Was already snowballing, but the nominator had already withdrawn their nomination with this diff. Considering there is no support for anything other than keeping the article, there is no reason for this AfD to continue four more days. (non-admin closure) ~StyyxTalk? 22:10, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Well sourced article, propaganda or not, it has value here. Within scope of Wikipedia, to cover all view points. No reason for deletion simply because you don't like it. Excellent source found in the Washington Post [1]. Turkish paranoia as it describes in the article. Here is another critical review of the case [2]. Happy to keep the article, I did not know this syndrome existed, 100 yrs later and it still has importance to a nation. Oaktree b (talk) 22:47, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- As I have said in talk page. if not deleted it requires serious editing in order to fit to wikipedia. Aloisnebegn (talk) 16:46, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment also about 17 hits in Jstor, proably only about 10 or so are good quality to use here. Again, a very interesting topic, haunting a nation 100 yrs later. I would happily expand the article and perhaps create a French language one, we need to share this knowledge. Oaktree b (talk) 23:38, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- You should change your tone. I assume you did not check the talk page in detail so explaining here again. Trianon syndrome article is a good example on how it should be written. Article is full of accusations, exactly like you just did. Aloisnebegn (talk) 16:49, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep OP tried removing a bunch of sourced content. When they got reverted by different users, they launched this AfD with subpar reasoning. Article is well sourced as Oaktree b noted and definitely has a place to stay. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 23:48, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - Sourcing exceeds notability and verification guidelines. Reliable, independent, secondary and significant coverage in New York Times, Journal article Turkish Studies, Article in Virginia Tech Journal here. The list goes on. Not only are these sources good, there are countless scholarly, peer reviewed journal articles, which to me are the gold standard of sourcing because they indicate scholarly interest in the subject, interest which is documented, reviewed, and published in a curated academic source. It is hard to be more sound and rigorous than that. MaxnaCarta (talk) 03:45, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Feels a bit like piling in as we're in SNOW territory, but found this quite a well written and well sourced article. No possible rationale for deletion. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:35, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep More than enough coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. The phenomenon is detailed in numerous academic journals and reliable sources. There is no reason to delete this article. Helen(💬📖) 23:08, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

- not bad faith but someone who did not exactly know what deletion should be used for. an admin can remove this nomination. Aloisnebegn (talk) 19:23, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
- Strong Keep plenty of references, well written, nominator's assertion regarding the purpose of the proposed deletion doesn't track with how the article reads. Hard to add anything beyond what's been said here. An admin should step in and SNOW close this already. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 12:24, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - Even though this player never made it above AA, I think there is enough coverage of him to justify an article: a profile from during his college career and an article from before he was drafted in The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate, an article in the NY Daily News about his high school career, a profile in the NY Post from before the MLB draft, and an article about his defensive skill in the Charleston Gazette-Mail (which is the only one of these sources currently in the article).

- Delete non-notable player with only local coverage, besides articles listing draft picks where he's mentioned. That is not "significant coverage". JimKaatFan (talk) 20:54, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
- I don't get this argument, given that these newspapers are based in three different locations. Besides, WP:SIGCOV doesn't say anything about "local coverage", and neither does WP:NBASIC. Hatman31 (talk) 19:11, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Does not pass WP:GNG or WP:WEBCRIT and I can't find better sources to demonstrate otherwise. The page has had a citations needed banner since 2011 and the page was previously nominated for deletion here with no consensus. The arguments to keep included claims that interviews and primary sources contribute to notability, claims of future notability but no new sources have surfaced since, claims of other stuff having fewer sources and therefore this must be notable, and finally suggesting ignore all rules and I like it when confronted with the fact that the sources presented are trivial mentions.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:35, 13 July 2022 (UTC)- All articles written by the students from my classes are linked from the project page of that class. In this class each of the students choose him/herself a topic to write about and selected a book from the Jesuit Collection of the Special Collections of the University Library. The university acquired over the years sets of old rare books, dating from the 16th century to the 20th century, which played an important role in history in the respective fields or are unique in its kind. The difficulty with these books is that many of the sources about them are only offline available. This is sometimes a challenge for the students, as they usually don't have the time to travel to libraries to look up more sources. All together I am confident that this subject is relevant to have an article in Wikipedia. Looking at the article, I am not so happy with the quality, looking at it by the standards we use in classes nowadays. If this would be the end product now, the student would fail the assignment. However, the suggestion that the article contains original research is incorrect, as well as that the article does not have an essayistic writing style and isn't an essay. Romaine (talk) 05:44, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- Comment if the student can't carry out proper research on the subject, it shouldn't be uploaded to Wikipedia, it does not help if they then delete it for a lack of sources. Oaktree b (talk) 23:14, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:
A book is presumed notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:
- The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.

The result was delete. While this individual does have some coverage in reliable sources, the majority of it appears to be trivial coverage, and there is rough consensus here that the currently available sources don't meet the threshold for notability. There is also some concern (well-summarized by User:Liz) that the article doesn't even attempt to make a claim that Walker has done anything notable, besides having somewhat popular social media accounts, having a famous father, and having political views. —ScottyWong— 19:18, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete The media coverage that he receives is because he is an unusual, colorful personality, not because of any influence or inherent notability he has in U.S. culture. Notability is not established by being unusual or interesting but by the influence or impact one has and I just don't see it with this social media "influencer", either in the article or in the coverage he has received thus far from media sources. Being a contrary voice to your peers isn't enough to establish ones importance as a voice people pay attention to. And as we have seen with reality stars, anyone who does something outrageous can get media coverage these days, it's not sustained and lasting coverage. Liz Read! Talk! 04:58, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

, but it is when that peculiarity is supplemented by reliable sources and the coverage about said peculiarity is spread across several years. —VersaceSpace 🌃 01:20, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Does not pass WP:GNG or WP:WEBCRIT. The only sources currently cited in the article that are not blogs is a short interview at Toronto City News by Lindsay Dunn, a YouTube video by Toronto City News presented by Lindsay Dunn, and a Global News article that doesn't even dedicate 100 words to the podcast and is only a trivial mention. The CSI source might be reliable and contains a little bit more about the podcast, but again it's barely more than 100 words and is arguably a trivial mention. I couldn't find any more good sources and the page has been tagged for possible notability issues since 2019. TipsyElephant (talk) 20:21, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment it looks like the CSI has been discussed at RSN a few times: here, briefly mentioned here, and briefly discussed her in relation to the Journal of Scientific Exploration. The Center for Inquiry has also been discussed here. Skeptical Inquirer (the magazine published by CSI) has been discussed a number of times at RSN: here, here, and here. I also discovered that the author of the CSI piece, D. J. Grothe, has been a guest on the Reality Check podcast multiple times (episode 98 and episode 58). If the CSI piece is considered more than a trivial mention then I think the reliability should be discussed and whether the author is independent should also be discussed.

- Delete A considered and thoroughly researched nomination, and even-handed at that. Weighing all of this, together with the content in the article, I believe we fail WP:GNG here.

Does not pass WP:GNG or WP:WEBCRIT. I searched for sources but couldn't find any. Previous AfD came across this SMH source, but it's mostly an interview and generally we would need at least two good sources to demonstrate notability. The name of the show definitely makes it difficult to form a proper search query so I'm open to a speedy keep if someone discovers a bunch of sources I was unaware of.

The result was no consensus. This one seems to be on the edge, and the discussion resulted in no agreement on whether the available sources can be considered "significant coverage in reliable sources" for the purpose of establishing notability per WP:GNG, or whether the authors of the reviews could be considered "nationally known critics" as required by WP:NFILM. —ScottyWong— 00:00, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

- Weak Keep. I think that Indiewire is definitely reliable enough, it's a well-established outlet. The Dissolve, according to WP,
was a film review, news, and commentary website which was operated by Pitchfork and based in Chicago, Illinois. The site was focused on reviews, commentary, interviews, and news about contemporary and classic films.[1] Its editor was Scott Tobias, the former editor in chief of The A.V. Club.[1] Editorial director Keith Phipps announced The Dissolve's closure on July 8, 2015.
. So it meets the mark for me. I am unsure about the third ref, it's on RT, but what's its editorial policies? There's an about us and staff page, but no editorial policies? Still, two reliable refs counting towards the GNG criteria or the first one of the Notability (film) one are enough for me to go with weak keep. VickKiang (talk) 07:54, 13 July 2022 (UTC) - Delete Two reviews (not significant coverage, in my opinion - they're just hit-n-run reviews) are the sum total of this film's coverage in secondary sources. One of those, The Dissolve, a short-lived website, is very iffy. Never had a theatrical release. Nowhere close to meeting GNG or NFILM.

- It was around for less than 2 years, and the review of this film was written by a Andrew Lapin, who describes himself as "Managing Editor for Local News for the Jewish Telegraphic Agency" - hardly Roger Ebert.

"Publication of at least two non-trivial articles, at least five years after the film's initial release."
That's not the case here. It also says"has received full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics"
which hasn't been shown here. NFILM requires more than just two reliable sources."

- I am very much not going to be listening to you on the subject of source quality given our prior conversation. My vote remains keep. Artw (talk) 16:14, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- I'm usually supporting deletion, but I voted for weak keep as I think two RS are enough. I disagree with that the reviews aren't a "significant" review. I think that to be significant coveage, probably only one very lengthy paragraph is needed, these two reviews are much longer (five and six), so I think it meets it meets GNG (multiple, indepedent, reliable refs), albeit just marginally, but the first criteria of WP:NFILM is contentious:
The film is widely distributed and has received full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics
. On RT, the critic in question has reviewed loads of films and appeared in RS, but he might not be "nationally well-known". Still, it is IMO that if the film meets either the GNG or one of the WP:NFILM criteria would be fine. I don't get that The Dissolve is particularly "iffy", it may not be the best, bt the former editor-in-chief did appear in some other RS per the sources cited in our WP article. Ye, it's now defunct, so it isn't that significant, but at least it's notable enough to have a WP article, and seems to be generally reliable (but not excellent, and far less than other film reviews, such as one from Roger Ebert or the NY Times). But I agree that it meets the GNG guidelines, and I think either achieving that or one of WP:NFILM would be fine. This article wouldn't be mch more than a start class one either way, but i's probably worth keeping for now. VickKiang (talk) 22:37, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep as passes WP:GNG with three full reviews. WP:NFILM is a guide as to whether a film will pass WP:GNG if it passes one or more of the listed criteria. Also in discussions by the film project nationally known critics means critics writing for national publications not whether the writer is famous or has an article, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:26, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Atlantic306: I believe you are misinterpreting NFILM. It clearly states "full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics." None of those reviews are by nationally-known critics. In addition, the preface to that section states "attributes that generally indicate, when supported with reliable sources, that the required sources are likely to exist" - even IF those attributes exist, it doesn't automatically qualify a film; it still has to meet GNG. Is that the criteria you are using for a Keep vote? Wes sideman (talk) 10:54, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- Yes by passing WP:GNG. Nationally known critics means being known by having an audience in a national publication, that is the interpretation by WP:WikiProject Film who wrote WP:NFILM. If you disagree then ask them for clarification, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 19:23, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete fails WP:NFSOURCES and WP:NFO #1. No significant coverage, and regarding the reviews: the third one doesn't seem reliable, Indiewire is reliable but the site nor Gabe Toro are a "nationally known critic". The Dissolve I think is also reliable, but again, not a "nationally known critic". - Favre1fan93 (talk) 02:56, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- I think that meeting GNG is enough, as the WP:NFILM says:
For the majority of topics related to film, the criteria established at the general notability guideline are sufficient to follow
. So it's very borderline, and I'm okay with either keep or delete, but I feel that this meets GNG probably. VickKiang (talk) 03:24, 19 July 2022 (UTC)- @VickKiang: I'm just curious, how do you believe this meets GNG if the sources are all reviews, most of which don't indicate wide coverage I'd expect for a film to simply meet GNG. Not to say the fact too there no info on the article save for a brief lead and an unsourced cast section. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 03:41, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Favre1fan93: Per GNG:
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.
In this case, I think there's two reliable, independent refs; where does it say that reviews "don't indicate wide coverage"? IMO reviews are much more significant than, say, press releases. The unsourced cast section could probably be rm if needed. VickKiang (talk) 03:43, 19 July 2022 (UTC)- I meant "wide coverage" in that there aren't any other sources present besides the reviews (which again, are being put into question for their reliability and use). - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:46, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Three years of back-and-forth BLARing and restoring has ensued, with Drmies, Mccapra, Orangemike, Viewmont Viking, and Spf121188 favoring redirection; and Zdemars, Oregonian20, and Nmkru favoring an article. The Grid also spoke in favor of redirection at the RfD, while Wiseoleman17 felt the school is notable. (The other restore !votes were more procedural in nature.) Arguments for inclusion have includedthere is no proof that this school is independently notable--a few references don't make that point. alumni are already at List of University of Oregon alumni, and note that the list here didn't separate faculty and alumni

It is over 100 years old and was one of the original 34 schools to be accredited by the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication.

It's also one of the oldest schools of journalism and communication in the nation and one of the first to be accredited.

- Same as it ever was--a couple of editors with tons of experience editing such articles agree, and two or three editors with no experience and an interest (and possibly a COI) only in one or two specific articles derail it with hollow arguments. "Exists for 100 years" and "graduated thousands of students" and "other articles are like this" are all invalid arguments, which people like Orangemike and Viewmont Viking have probably refuted hundreds of times already--I know I have. No, it takes secondary sourcing, and solid discussion of the topic in a number of those sources, to make something notable, and we simply don't have that here. Delete. (Or redirect, I don't care.) Drmies (talk) 01:52, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- I need to make a procedural comment of caution: assigning more authority/seniority to editors with more experience in Wikipedia, while belittling those with less experience, I believe it to be contrary to the Wikipedia policies and principles. It may run afoul of our civility and don't bite newcomers policies and guidelines. As you say, deliberations should focus on the substance of the issue. Al83tito (talk) 17:08, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. This article completely fails any notability requirements. Out of the 50 refs, 32% are self published with 16 from the school (refs 1-2, 4-8, 10-15, 17-18, 29, 40). I'm tempted to remove those just to clean the refbombing up a little bit, per WP:SELFPUB. What's left? A long list of refs barely mentioning the school (so-and-so was dean, or so-and-so attended, or so-and-so went on to win an award much later in their careers). For example, the Eric W. Allen Jr. ref from the Oregon Encyclopedia literally just mentions him being dean (here). It's not sigcov whatsoever. The Eugene Weekly article is about the coronavirus and namechecks the school once. The only possible sigcov there might be is an AdWeek article, but it's behind a paywall here so I can't read it. One paywalled source for a university's school of journalism falls far beneath the level of coverage WP requires. The relevant info should be folded into the UO article. --Kbabej (talk) 19:53, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- Update: Given the article was basically one large university course catalog, I've removed most of the self-published sources per SELFPUB. I've left the ones for enrollment and the school's magazines/projects. I realize this messes with my percentages and the ref listings up above, but the sentiment remains: this article is not suitable for WP. It's a glorified program description that could have been lifted from a university course catalog. --Kbabej (talk) 20:25, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment: The article is indeed poorly developed (more akin to a catalog), with a dearth of actual encyclopedic information (i.e: the history section). The question is whether it can be kept and improved, or deleted. The WP:BEFORE policy states: "Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability", and "If you find that adequate sources do appear to exist, the fact that they are not yet present in the article is not a proper basis for a nomination." A google search of "University of Oregon School of Journalism" yields about 30,000 general search results, and 1,800 news results, at first sight mostly from local media. I have searched but I haven't found yet Wikipedia guidelines or policies about how to weigh local media as sources to establish notability. Can anyone point to the right policy page on this? Thank you. Al83tito (talk) 05:14, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Hello @Al83tito! To be fair, the nominator @Tamzin has been editing since 2012 and has over 36,000 edits. I'm sure they are very aware of BEFORE, but I have no doubt your comment was meant in good faith. I believe it that the search yields a large amount of hits, but it's the sigcov of the RS articles that matters. I think the local media sourcing you're talking about would likely be under the notability for organizations and companies (WP:ORG), in the audience subsection (WP:AUD). Please ping me if you have any questions. Cheers! --Kbabej (talk) 16:41, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Kbabej thank you for your helpful response regarding WP:AUD. There it says: "attention solely from local media, or media of limited interest and circulation, is not an indication of notability; at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary.". If I have time i'll look again at the google search and see whether there are news sources that at least are regional. Thank you. Al83tito (talk) 17:19, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- Question: @Drmies, you note that several "keep" arguments are invalid. There is one of them that gives me pause, however; and that is the fact that this is a 100+ years old institution. I am not definitively saying that that argument alone wins the day, however, looking at other parts of Wikipedia policies (about small towns inter alia), I find this: "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history". I honestly do not mean to be facetious or frivolous, I understand that those policies are about geographic places, and not about institutions. What I draw from it is the logic underpinning that argument: that the age of something can lead to the presumption of notability. At least in part it can help. I honestly ask the question if the argument of age of an institution does warrant some consideration. The article claims that that school is one of the oldest schools of journalism in the U.S. My logic tells me that that is a strong indication of notability. Further, for old institutions-and especially those that their heyday is in the past- may be better covered with print/offline sources than more rent online ones. I am also pinging @Kbabej since they offered to answer additional questions I may have. Thank you both and anybody else who wishes to chime in. Al83tito (talk) 17:53, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Happy to offer a perspective, @Al83tito. I offer it only as a perspective, as I am not the arbiter of all things WP. I can definitely see your position and don't think you're being facetious or frivolous. As for my thoughts, I think more historical a topic, the more is leans toward notability (or, as you say, can at least help). Will an educational institution chartered a century ago be more notable than one founded in 2021? Likely yes. Even with a presumption of notability based on the historical aspect of a topic, WP should not have an article about a subject if it does not meet the general notability criteria (WP:GNG), which states (in part), that a topic needs significant coverage in RS. GNG also states:
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 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.
- I think the lack of in-depth, reliable, significant sources means this page should not have a standalone article. There seems to be very little in the way of the school's history (two small paragraphs), and the rest is just course listings and other items that would appear in a school catalogue when advertising the college. The history part of the article could easily be made a section/subsection on the parent article, and the lists of notable students and faculty can be folded into the list of University of Oregon alumni and list of University of Oregon faculty and staff articles respectively. None of the important information will be lost, as the history and notable people will be covered in their respective articles. The only thing WP would be "losing" would be the course listings, which aren't encyclopedic anyway.
- Just my two cents, but feel free to chuck those pennies away if you want to! Again, feel free to respond and ask me any questions you have. --Kbabej (talk) 18:25, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Kbabej, thank you very much; I appreciate your kindness and thoughtful analysis. I'll keep those two cents :-P. While my intuition tells me that somewhere, maybe in print, there would be sources to formally establish notability, and to flesh out the article. As of now the article is in poor condition and additional sources are not easily findable (I did look for them a tad more without success). So, I think that what you propose of salvaging what can be by incorporating into other parts of Wikipedia, is a sensible approach. If someone is really committed to creating a real Wikipedia article on that school that meets the WP requirements, they are welcome to do so.
- So for all the above (and below), I support Delete, while repurposing any bits that are reusable elsewhere. Al83tito (talk) 03:32, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

- Al83tito, geographical locations above a certain magnitude/size are considered automatically notable. Age helps in establishing whether something "is" an actual geographical location/inhabited place. That does not apply here. A company can be five hundred years old, a department can be a hundred years old, but if secondary sources don't prove that it matters one way or another, that's really the end of the story. If the school is one of the oldest, then that is an interesting thing to note--but if they only sources who comment on that fact are local papers and the school's website, then it doesn't add notability. Drmies (talk) 20:46, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Drmies on the notability point, thank you for your perspective, which is different from mine and something for me to ponder about. On the other hand, I think both you and I agree that beyond notability considerations, sources are needed for verifiability, and the article is lacking thus far. Thank you. Al83tito (talk) 22:27, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

There isn't any indication this school meets GNG seperate from the university; notable alumni do not speak to the notability of the school per INHERIT, age is a red herring argument as there are older subsidiary colleges at virtually every state institution East of the Mississippi and the NGEO argument is not valid on its surface. 174.212.228.90 (talk) 09:19, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

- Comment. Regarding the sources from MonFrontieres: the first has zero independent secondary coverage of her, as it merely repeats quotes from her and her coach from a press release. The second I can't access -- does it have SIGCOV? The third is pure tabloid trash, and also is almost entirely quotes from her and her husband, with only a single sentence from the interviewer that is about her. So right now, even if the second source has SIGCOV, the subject fails GNG as multiple sources are needed. JoelleJay (talk) 00:07, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

There is this one list, which shows its lack of "eptitude" by putting George W. Bush at no. 10! (Nitpick: Ghenghis Khan was not a mere king.)Clarityfiend (talk) 07:38, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete The one list offered above shows how arbitary this is. It puts on the list Adolf Hitler, who at the end of his life essentially controlled no where. There are too many things that need to be defined. I would argue that the most logical measure would be comparing the territory ruled by a person when they came to hold office as opposed to when they left office. However defining this is incredibly hard. That is the other thing with that linked above list. It includes Francisco Pizarro, who was not a head of state. However much of this assumes that it is much easier to define what a country rules and conquesrs than it is. How much of India was under British rule at any given time. How much territory was conquered by FDR? How much was conquered by Stalin? Do we count only direct anexations? how about places that were protectorates? How do we treat "conquests" under George II and George III? The Battle of Abraham Plains happens when George II is still king, but the formal agreement on exactly what was transfered where was later? At the same time there are multiple places where the Brtish take control in the 7 years war (some Caribbean islands, I believe even Cuban, and clearly part of the Phillipines) that they hand back over to the French and Spanish at the end of the war. Does the Louisiana purchase count as a "conquest" by Jefferson? It is technically a voluntary sale by France. On the other hand, when Jefferson left office in 1809, in much of the claimed limits of the Louisian Purchase American power was not really recognized by the residents. Nor were the exact boundaries between American and Spanish authority defined until about 10 years after that, in in many ways those boundaries ignored the fact that in large areas it was really the Comanches who possessed real power. I have not even gotten into the equally perplexing question of if it is land or land + controlled water we are measuring. There is no easy way to define this, which is probably why very few people have ever tried to define it.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:11, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Not a notable lists, doesn't satisfy WP:GNG or WP:NLIST. The tournaments listed are mostly small, minor tournaments, that are either cup competitions for other countries where Indian teams were invited, or other minor invitational tournaments. No evidence that a list of these winners is notable enough. As an aside, the section on runners-up makes no sense in an article about winners, so should be ignored for the purposes of determining whether a winner's list is notable or not.

- Keep - Nom makes a vague case: Too broad to make a manageable list. What is Manageable? This list has been managed as a WP article since its creation in 2010 - 12 years. Too broad: The list has clear inclusion criteria and as far as I can tell is clearly consistent with WP:LISTPEOPLE. If such vague rationale is accepted for deletion, then just about every other list in the category: Lists of people by association would seem to be too broad and unmanageable. Specifically, I’d like to see nom state rationale that demonstrates this list does not meet the standard outlined in WP:LISTPEOPLE Mike Cline (talk) 12:07, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
- Per WP:SALAT, "Lists that are too general or too broad in scope have little value". 150+ years of history equates to a ton of people involved in a hazily defined way ("significant roles"). Clarityfiend (talk) 12:29, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Mike Cline If you're !voting to keep the article, I would advise you to change your vote to "Keep" as the bot doesn't recognize "Oppose".

KeepFor the purposes of historical research, I personally rely on list pages like this, but I understand this is AfD and WP:ILIKEIT and WP:USEFUL are not enough of a reason to keep it. The list does need clearer inclusion criteria, so I would propose something like:
- Notable individuals in Montana history who are discussed *beyond passing mentions* in Montana: A History of Two Centuries by Malone and Roeder (any edition), or
- Notable individuals listed on the Montana Biographies page of the Montana Historical Society, or
* Any individual with two sources verifying that they had a notable role in Montana history who also have Wikipedia pages
- The reason it is different from List of people from Montana is that it's a chronological list rather than divided up by profession (which can be useful for some things but not when you're trying to quickly cross-reference people by time period). Looking more closely at the page, I do think it requires citations justifying each entry, and some of the copy that is there reads like OR or editorial commentary rather than Wikipedia/encyclopedia voice, but perhaps that could be fixed in due course. I would also strongly advise getting rid of the "come one and all" invitation at the top making it look like anyone is welcome to add anyone to the list; I get the feeling that was fashionable some years ago in Wikipedia, but nowadays people look at it and interpret it to mean that you're trying to build a directory, hence the skepticism. Cielquiparle (talk) 17:42, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- Ballpark figures: Let's say there are 100 notable Montanans per year (fewer earlier on, more later). That means the list would have to have 15,000+ entries. See the problem? Clarityfiend (talk) 13:28, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- No, it doesn't need to be that kind of list. It's just a curated list of notable people from Montana history (with citations) who have Wikipedia pages, and anyone else who gets added later with a Wikipedia page, who also meets the criteria. It doesn't have to be comprehensive. Also, it's supposed to be a list of "historical figures", so quite frankly, we don't even need anyone from the 21st century. We could even say that the final section only includes people born in the 20th century, who did notable things in the 20th century, even if they died in the 21st century. To be honest, it doesn't seem like the list would be that huge...for Montana. Cielquiparle (talk) 15:12, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- "It doesn't have to be comprehensive"? So now you're adding vague conditions. Who gets to decide?
- Anyone who did anything notable in the 21st century isn't a "historical figure"? History is the study of the past. Aren't the years 2001-2021 (and part of 2022) part of the past?
- Also, politicians from just the Democratic (252) and Republican (333) parties alone make a huge list. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:15, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- OK, I've struck criterion 3. So, according to the revised criteria, the people who get to decide are Malone and Roeder (because they wrote one of the definitive reference books on Montana history), and the Montana Historical Society biographies page. (The beauty of using Malone and Roeder is that they've updated the book across multiple editions.) It does mean Evel Knievel would be struck off the current page for now, but at a glance it seems likely that everyone else would stay on the list. It's a finite list of candidates for inclusion, and we could also further manage/restrict the list by saying that anyone included on the list should already have a Wikipedia page.

- Keep per the reasons outlined above. This doesn't have to be an exhaustive list. "Notable people from Montana" are obviously going to be discussed in any history of Montana, and will be listed in the index. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 16:11, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- P.S. I don't see any policy-based arguments for deletion. Just vague claims of "too broad" or "not useful". 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 07:41, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- Too broad is specified in SALAT, as I have noted. And the criteria are all over the place ("significant roles in the exploration and settlement of the region as well as the cultural, economic, military, political, and social development of Montana"), which means, as I have also noted, far, far, far too many people qualify. Also, what is the definition of a "significant" role? Clarityfiend (talk) 11:31, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

DraftifyChanging !vote as an alternative to deletion per WP:ATD, especially since page creator is still an active user and a participant in this discussion (which is pretty rare in my experience). List page needs to be reframed and brought in line with more recent Wikipedia standards; otherwise, it will keep popping up at AfD. That said, I don't think it will necessarily require that much more work. (I would start fixing it myself now but would rather discuss with the creator first.) Cielquiparle (talk) 07:33, 5 July 2022 (UTC)- Keep - this is a useful way to introduce a history class of secondary school students to do historical research--it helps kide find nearby topics and does not duplicate any other article.

- Merge to Lists of people from Montana. "In history" is so vague/unclear that it's hard to imagine it as a reasonable spin-off of the main article. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:27, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for bringing up the main article, History of Montana, as it definitely needs to be taken into consideration with regard to the fate of this List page. I actually thought you were going to suggest "Merge" with History of Montana, as I could see an argument for that as well. Sometimes it happens that the "spinoff" or supporting List page starts to balloon both in prose and in scope, because the main Article page is not doing its job, and you can see how that could have been the case here as well, as the History of Montana page is also in need of some cleanup. I think this is an opportunity to fix both the Article page (as primary) and the List page (whatever its final form), but in the meantime it would be nice to have the List page in Draft space, while we work out how best to fix this (also because it will help in fixing the main Article page whether or not it's technically a "merge"). Cielquiparle (talk) 08:41, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- Merge. I have to agree with Rhododendrites rationale. The topic is far too broad and what is the criteria for inclusion of historical figure? Lightburst (talk) 00:45, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to where though? I was nearly coming around to merging with List of people from Montana. But the problem with that page is that it's a list of people who happened to have lived in Montana at some point in their lives; they haven't necessarily done anything significant in Montana pre-/territorial/state history. Also, while many of the people from this page are already there, others don't appear to be, and that is a major problem given the lack of inline citations for most of this list page. It's not a straightforward merge.
:My inclination now is to merge most of the content from the list back into the History of Montana page, but doing so properly will take time, as the main History page itself needs more work.I am willing to work on performing the merge with the History page and the other List page, and fixing the main History page, but for this reason I am asking to have this page draftified as an alternative to deletion, with the understanding that it will likely end up being deleted after 6 months.

- Delete Nominator is entirely wrong in asserting that no sources exist beyond Wikileaks. In fact, the Borneo Bulletin itself thunders that "By command of His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu’izzaddin Waddaulah ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien Sa’adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam, the Prime Minister’s Office announced that His Majesty consented for Haji Asmawee bin Haji Muhammad, Deputy Director of Brunei Research at the Brunei Research Department to be appointed as Director of Brunei Research at the Brunei Research Department, Prime Minister’s Office." And THAT is as far as sources go. Shocked and amazed that nominator didn't find this vitally important coverage in performing a WP:BEFORE, but forgiveness is divine and we still signally fail WP:GNG.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This is problematic and not simple, so here goes. I would have draftified this article except it's way older than 90 days. It's basically sourced to a single source and SELECTIVELY picks from that source, omitting figures for - for instance - Muslims and others from the presented data. The author has a very intense interest in the demographics of European/Near Eastern countries and I worry about that given the selectivity in this article. Do we need a 1934 census of Bulgaria article? Is it notable? Based on one source? Effectively misrepresenting the data presented in that source? My view is not and I'm proposing this be draftified per a consensus reached here or deleted until something better and more representative can be built. Your views, please...

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History, Social science, and Bulgaria. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 10:29, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. I don't (so far) see a problem. Similar data from other countries (1930 United States census, 1931 United Kingdom census) are similarly sourced. Clearly the figures reported are a small subset of the census itself but in what way has the selection shown bias? Have Muslims been excluded? Islam is present and, it looks, properly reported. I don't find it odd that someone has an interest in the demographics of European and Near Eastern countries but if the data is being misrepresented that is a serious problem indeed. I suggest editing the article or commenting at its talk page if you think more representative information could be presented. Thincat (talk) 13:27, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep -- I would have liked to have seen something more by way of commentary. It gives two datasets, by ethnicity and religion. What is wrong with that?

- Sardinia is already Tomorrow (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
First of all, I premise that "Sardinia is already tomorrow" was not a party (original research by the author of the page) but a mere local assembly group. The page has not any utility, and this is evident from its reading: the page merely states that the group (erroneously defined as a party) existed, then it only describes the previous and subsequent political career of its members. In practice, there is not the slightest relevance from reading this page. Scia Della Cometa (talk) 08:53, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. It does not really matter what a political party is or is not (see note below) or whether a political grouping is active only in a local assembly: also parliamentary-only parties are encyclopedic, indeed. In our case, the subject is notable, is sourced (additional sources might be found) and deserves an article of its own. For fully two years, this grouping was active and played a key role in Sardinian politics. Wikipedia is great especially when it gathers and organises information difficult to find elsewhere. If, regretfully, there is no consensus on keeping this article, I hope it will be possible at least to merge with another article, in order to keep the article's history. Note. It may be disputable what a political party is. According to Encyclopedia Britannica, a political party is a "group of persons organized to acquire and exercise political power" (like Sardinia is already Tomorrow!). Several political scientists have given different definitions and categorisations of political parties, e.g. cadre, mass, catch-all and cartel ones. Especially, at their origins, a role is also played by parliamentary parties, that, according to our own definition in Wikipedia, are groups "consisting of members of the same political party or electoral fusion of parties in a legislative assembly such as a parliament or a city council". --Checco (talk) 10:00, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- It was not a political party but a local assembly's group, personal interpretations of the nature of an organization are Original researches. Even its key role in Sardinian politic must be fully demonstrated. Moreover, this page is almost de facto orphan, nor does its members have their own page, so in this case even a merger seems almost impossible to me.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 10:23, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- Whatever its nature, the subject is encyclopedic and the fact that the information included in the article are not present in other articles and that there is no natural article of merger are, in my view, further arguments for keeping the article. I know that Italian politicians and journalists make distinctions between political parties, political "movements", political associations, parliamentary groups, etc., but these have nothing to do with political science and its international scientific standards. --Checco (talk) 10:40, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- Please, it is not the Italian journalists who distinguish between parties and parliamentary groups (which are objectively and juridically different entities), it seems to me that is you who consider any political subject a "party" according to a personal interpretation of a generic definition of political party. Parliamentary groups are distinct from parties in any jurisdiction, there is no hypothetical "international" scientific theory that claims they are the same..--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 11:15, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - 1) it is not a party, but a regional parliamentary group; 2) as regional parliamentary group, it had local notability only at most; 3) no inherent notability: the fact that a party exists/existed doesn't mean it deserves an article in Wikipedia --P1221 (talk) 13:59, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
- The party (or whatever we would like to call it) was represented by up to five regional councillors out of 60 for two years in the Regional Council of Sardinia, an autonomous region in Italy with two million people. There are thus official sources regarding the party's presence in the legislative body. This alone should convince anyone on the party's relevance and the opportunity of continuing to have an article on it in Wikipedia. --Checco (talk) 08:40, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- It was a simple regional group (not a party) that gathered independent regional councilors and from other parties: it is a very common thing in Italy, there are many examples of this type, but (almost) none of these have their own page; this group, in particular, does not seem to have undertaken any particular political initiative that could have given it notability.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 14:01, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

However, I would merge this page to Mario Diana (page that I recently created), who was chairman of the group, and not to Nanni Campus, who was a just its member.

- Proposal: From my point of view there is no consensus to maintain a standalone article for this simple regional group (which has never stood out for any particular reason), so I reaffirm that in my opinion the best compromise to close this Afd would be a merger with another page (and I would propose the page of chairman Mario Diana).--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 09:15, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

- @User:SDC, @User:Autospark: Of course, a merger would be better than deletion, but why a "regional group" should not be encyclopedic? In my view, any political party participating in elections and any political party/group/grouping active in an elective assembly is worth of an article, especially when it is backed by some many sources as this. --Checco (talk) 13:46, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Merge I have proposed this page for deletion, so that it may be merged into American Reporter. The article may or may not meet criteria for notability, but it does not meet the standard of WP:V. It is clear that this person has contributed to society and we should preserve their legacy via Wikipedia, but two poorly-sourced pages related to their work does not uphold our standards of Wikipedia. I therefore propose a merge, keeping the best of both pages intact. PickleG13 (talk) 21:49, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

- Keep there's books and articles about this topic [26] [27] [28]. It is a common propaganda narrative in Russia that Russia is right in everything because NATO broke an informal verbal declaration promising not to expand beyond East Germany after the German unification in 1990. It was in fact used in one of Putin's speeches before the invasion started. Super Ψ Dro 09:18, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

- They are not only about NATO expansion, but about NATO expansion beyond the Iron Curtain and how it has strained NATO's relations with Russia. Russia probably wouldn't have cared a lot if Ireland or Switzerland joined NATO in 1990. That NATO enlargement beyond the Iron Curtain is illegitimate is an actual narrative in the Russian academic world [29]. I remind that Putin himself demanded NATO not to keep expanding and to retreat its troops from the states that joined after 1997 [30]. He talked about how NATO betrayed Russia by expanding five times for months prior to his attack on Ukraine [31]. He also talked about it in the 2007 Munich speech of Vladimir Putin: "What happened to the assurances our Western partners made after the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact?". This is a thing that's been going on for a while among the Russian public. Super Ψ Dro 22:21, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- This page is also an attempt to recreate deleted/redirected page Baker-Gorbachev Negotiations, but just make it bigger.

- Keep The subject is notable, as it's shown by the good coverage in reliable secondary sources - also authoritative academic sources such as Foreign Affairs, International Security and Journal of Cold War Studies (all quoted in the article). While further refinements through the usual WP:EDITING process are possible, the article is definitely not an WP:OR, and to me it looks largely complaint with WP:NPOV. Gitz (talk) (contribs) 09:48, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
- These sources cover so called "Baker-Gorbachev Negotiations", which would be a more legitimate subject than this page. However, such page was already deleted at an AfD [32], see last version here: [33]. In fact, no promises of non-expansion was made, especially in written. By creating this page someone was making two points: (a) the complaints by Putin and his administration were legitimate, and (b) they were highly notable. None of that is true. Yes, this should be mentioned on a few pages (and it is already mentioned), but this POV fork does not deserve a separate page. My very best wishes (talk) 16:18, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
- Having a page on Holocaust denial does not imply that it didn't happen. Likewise, having this page doesn't imply Putin is right. And I would argue that such narratives are indeed notable, considering Putin was talking about them in the same speeches in which he was making ultimatums to the world's largest military alliance. Super Ψ Dro 07:02, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, but the Holocaust denial is a notable subject. Not every "controversy in Russia" is notable. That one does deserve to be noticed on a couple of other pages, and it is already noticed there. This page I believe is a POV fork and a recreation of another already deleted page. My very best wishes (talk) 15:04, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Any article that starts by describing something as controversial is presenting a point of view, at odds with WP:NPOV. My !vote is informed by this essay WP:DTTC which speaks to the value of presenting facts, not stating how controversial they are. I think therefore content could be included in other articles (so a redirect could be OK) but I also question if the sources suggest notability? i.e. do they show the notability of "Controversy in Russia regarding the legitimacy of eastward NATO expansion" or just that "the legitimacy of eastward NATO expansion" is a debate? I cannot tell, it would take a lot of effort to dissect that, but it seems clear that this is an essay. CT55555 (talk) 23:00, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
- CT55555 has a good point. The word "controversy" is not advised in WP articles. Might I suggest consideration of a rename, due to this factor, to Assurances given to Russia regarding NATO expansion? The assurances are well documented now in the academic literature. Buckshot06 (talk) 23:41, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
- Well, that would be even more problematic. No any assurances were given to Russia regarding NATO expansion, at least in written, as documented in the literature. What they talked about in person during meetings is an interesting question but hardly worthy a page. My very best wishes (talk) 12:34, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

- Merge The topic is a recurring foreign policy debate in Russia, but as others pointed out, presenting it as a controversy over legitimacy could bias the audience. I'd suggest merging much of its content into Enlargement of NATO in a "Controversy" or "Ex-Soviet responses" section. At the very least it shouldn't be deleted as it fulfills both sufficient conditions for WP:EVENT.

People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.
- If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

After signing the contract with TVB, she mainly filmed variety shows. The currently broadcast "Stride" is her maiden drama, playing Tiffany, one of the newspaper's members, who is Yao Ziling's Colleagues, because the main force is the company's drama, so there is no need to run. After the selection of Miss Hong Kong, Amber also went to the training class to learn acting skills with Luo Guanlan, but this time the drama was officially filmed, and it turned out that going to class was very different from practice."

- The sources I linked are all reliable sources that provide significant coverage about the subject. I do not agree that they are "early stage PR" or unreliable sources. The sources show she is a notable actress who has received sustained coverage over multiple years from Hong Kong media. That the sources are all Chinese-language sources does not mean an actress who is acting in primarily (if not completely) Chinese-language dramas and shows is non-notable. From Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, "Sources may encompass published works in all forms and media, and in any language."
I will discuss three of the sources in more detail.
- The 2022 Hong Kong Economic Times article notes that Amber Tang was a 2018 Miss Hong Kong contestant. In the competition, she received the runner-up award and the most photogenic award. The article notes that in 2013 when she took the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination, she received the 5** score on four subjects. The subject attended the University of Hong Kong, where she studied architecture. She received the "2017 Asian Construction Award" in the student division. Upon graduating in 2017, she joined the industry as an "architectural trainee". The article notes that she received numerous pieces of negative news coverage about dating the actor Arnold Kwok who was her cohost on Entertainment Everyone and who media reports thought had a girlfriend at the time, but both she and Kwok said they were each single at the time. The article notes that she enrolled again at the University of Hong Kong in 2019 and received a master's degree in December 2022. During her studies, she acted in a drama. The article discusses her performance on the TVB drama The Ultimate Confession 2.0 After Eighteen Years in which she plays Shen Xiaotong, Gong Jiaxin's 14-year-old sister.
- The 2022 am730 article provides biographical background about how she is 27 years old, how she received 5** on four DSE subjects, and how she studied architecture at the University of Hong Kong. The article notes that while being employed as architectural trainee, she competed in the 2018 Miss Hong Kong, where she received the runner-up and photogenic awards. The article notes that she largely performs on variety shows and in 2020 began receiving chances to act on dramas. She acted in the dramas Treading the World II, Benevolent Doctor under the Stars, and The King of Fighters. The article notes that her most recent role is as Shen Xiaotong, the 14-year-old sister of Shen Yue, in the widely watched drama "The Ultimate Confession 2.0 After Eighteen Years". Netizens found that "zero violation of the character's appearance" and were "impressed by her acting skills". The article describes how she was able to successfully depict "the repressed guilt" of her character who had stabbed Queenie using a glass bottle which impressed netizens.
- The 2021 Mingpao Weekly article notes that Amber Tang is 25 years old and received the runner-up and photogenic awards at Miss Hong Kong 2018. The article notes that she inked a contract with TVB, where her work largely has been on variety shows. The article notes that her first drama is Stride, where her role is Tiffany, an employee of the newspaper. Once the Miss Hong Kong competition ended, she received acting lessons from the actress and instructor Lo Koon Lan . When she started acting, she found it difficult to play a scene where she had to shout and cry in front of her boyfriend's family. The article notes that "she played the role of a girl who committed suicide by jumping off a building" and describes the preparations she made for that role. The article said that she was enrolled in the University of Hong Kong's Department of Architecture full-time two-year master's program and would be graduating that year. The article notes that her boyfriend is Guo Zihao who was her cohost on "Entertainment Everyone".
- Comment So she got 5** in her exams and that makes her notable? Is that it? All it is PR. She has nothing to warrant an article. Are you getting paid for this? That is the only reason I can think of that you make such absurd and mediocre statements to save this article. scope_creepTalk 08:16, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- The information about how she did on the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination is part of the biographical background about her. The rest of the article explains how she became notable: as an actress and as the runner-up in Miss Hong Kong. I do not consider any of this information from reliable sources to be PR.
I have no conflict of interest with the subject. As Liz (talk · contribs) suggested above, please do not make personal attacks. Cunard (talk) 10:23, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

- Fitzgerald's first collection The Late Parade (2013) was reviewed in The New York Times[36], Lambda Literary[37], Publishers Weekly[38], Boston Review[39], The New Criterion[40], The Critical Flame[41], Washington Independent Review of Books[42], and he was interviewed about it by New Books Network[43]. A poem was republished with an annotation in Blunderbuss Magazine[44]. It was mentioned in a poetry column in the Chicago Tribune[45].
- Fitzgerald's second collection George Washington (2016) was reviewed in The New York Times[46], Hyperallergic[47], Boston Review[48], The New Criterion[49], Brooklyn Rail[50], and Hobart[51] and he appeared to discuss it on a KCRW podcast[52], was interviewed about it by Book Forum[53], and Marfa Public Radio[54]. As well as mentions in The Point[55] and Times Literary Supplement[56].
- His poems have appeared in BOMB Magazine[57], American Poetry Review[58], The American Reader[59], Harvard Review[60], The New Yorker[61], Poetry[62], Boston Review, Granta (where he was also interviewed)[63], The New Republic[64], The New York Review of Books[65], OmniVerse (with an interview)[66], in Spanish translation in Buenos Aires Poetry[67], and The American Scholar[68].

The result was merge to Lower Garden District, New Orleans. Aren't gardens places where one catches these pokémon, anyway? Rough consensus is to cover this topic, but as part of an existing article about the statue's location. Sandstein 10:38, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

OCLC 1083153420. see google preview , seems closer to WP:SUSTAINED than "a brief flurry of coverage in August and February" of 2016–2017. ☆ Bri (talk) 05:05, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- Merge - This was tricky. Subject is absolutely notable. Sure, the blitz of coverage was quick, but significant and so once notability is established, even temporarily, this is okay per NTEMP. I disagree with the application of SUSTAINED. Overall I would have just adopted a "live and let live" attitude with this article, there is sooooo much stuff to XFD. But seeing as it is here, I take no objection to Star's merge suggestion. Recommend it is included in the main Pikachu article. MaxnaCarta (talk) 04:01, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- MaxnaCarta, since you wrote this over a dozen good sources have been added. Turns out that the coverage was sustained for years, notability has certainly been established and, since this has now met your criteria above, please consider that Pikachu's turn at bat has proven noteworthy. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:07, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to Lower Garden District, New Orleans. Per the sourcing, has closer relation to local area events than to the video game or character. It's trivia for the latter two. czar 04:49, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep as a notable statue which had fairly wide press coverage, more media than most works of art have or most works of art will receive, and more public acknowledgement than most individual Pokémon of which 30 different characters have Wikipedia pages. Bri shows some sustainability above. The statue was publicly exhibited for a time, vandalized by ruffians and anti-Pikachu goons and roustabouts (or maybe a neighborhood guy out walking his bat), and still exists in private hands. Randy Kryn (talk) 10:54, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
- I'm biased as the stub creator, but I'm going to vote to keep as well per GNG. It is simply not accurate to say the statue "got a brief flurry of coverage in August and February, and nothing of note afterward". Did you even try Google? There's coverage ranging from 2016 to 2019, within reputable source specifically focused on the statue including multiple paragraphs in a book about monuments. There's coverage of the work's installation, vandalism, repair, removal, and auction, along with enough descriptions of the monument to flesh out a commentary/reception section. I'd rather see this entry expanded to its fullest potential, not deleted. In the future, consider sharing concerns on the article's Talk page before jumping to AfD. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:18, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

- Note to closing admin, I am not really against Keep either. I did state notability was established. I'm honestly happy with a merge or Keep - the subject belongs on Wikipedia. I do not see the harm in merging to Pikachu or Lower Garden District New Orleans, and creating a redirect. Nor do I see the harm in keeping. In hindsight, a merger proposal would have been more appropriate. MaxnaCarta (talk) 00:37, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

- Merge to Lower Garden District, New Orleans. Its absolutely a notable search term. Note, the nominator has been reprimanded for being too trigger happy with AFD nominations relating to a different a topic - no shade to Ten Pound H intended. Since there are a couple of obvious merge locals, perhaps a merge discussion should have been opened before going straight to AFD? >> Lil-unique1 (talk) — 23:37, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
- More than a notable search term, it's a notable topic. The criteria that the nomination lays out have been met and its premise nulled out, so giving weight to a merge on an already defunct AfDeletion request seems a bit unfair to me (why more nominations aren't withdrawn after criteria have been met is one of my head scratchers).

- @DanCherek: the structure of tables with musical works is usually used on ptwiki as a form of promotion. This is a tactic to place links to streaming services: Deezer, iTunes, Spotify, YouTube and others. However, it appears to be a promotional creation (SPAM). See these two sources. Observatório dos Famosos is a portal that propagates releases of marketing advisors. The author, Luca Moreira, is probably the same one who tried to promote himself dozens of times on ptwiki. The other source would be Tiago Ghidotti, another who tried to use ptwiki for spam. Moreira's evidence = elimination. No hesitation. At least it would be like that on ptwiki. Greetings!

- Delete Croisla or Croislla? He or her? Both are presented in the article, which as the nominator has observed, is packed with press release material with the same handout shots. What's not presented is any case for notability per WP:GNG. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:26, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Alexandermcnabb It's Croislla, with the double "ll". It's is he, except when he is in drag, and then it is she. Maybe that's what generated the confusion.
- My understanding of this case is that she's a rather common kind of drag in Brazil, the "Pablo Vittar clone" kind of drag, and (still?) not relevant in Wikipedia standards by any stretch of imagination. A number of the informations in the article must certainly be lies, as according to it he was already marketing himself as a full-fledged drag at the age of...9. Maybe he was doing drag shows by that age led by that agent - an activity that, looking at the kind of shows and the more than scanty clothing involved, would certainly put his agent in jail, was it here in Portugal - but I understand he (or she, if Croislla) became to be advertised on social networks an so on rather recently, and the Wikipedia article is certainly part of that campaign. Furthermore, if you look at the history of the account that created the article, it's more than probable that it is his agent, Vinicius Henuns. A large number of the editions (almost all), both here and on wiki.pt, are about artists this agent represents. Darwin Ahoy! 00:54, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This list of commercial product endorsements is almost completely unreferenced. Further, it's redundant to the "equipment" sections in the individual musicians' articles. The band as a whole identifies no specific equipment, so there's no added value in combination. Not surprisingly there are contradictions between this articles content and the individual artists.
The previous AfD raised some of these concerns but after 14 years there doesn't seem to be much progress in sourcing these statements.
It seems better to document the equipment endorsements by artist since they also do solo work and side projects outside of the band.
It's easiest to delete this article and leave the content in the artists' pages (where it already exists, and is far better-referenced). Mikeblas (talk) 20:55, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Without these sources, this is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. If there's a related business relationship/equipment endorsement that is reported, that can go in the individual artist's article.
