Code Monkeys (2014 film)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No sources found. No confirmation for anything in this article. De-prodded so I'm taking it to AfD. Jarkeld (talk) 20:40, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete likely a hoax. Cast listed includes actors committed to current productions and have nothing anywhere for the actors stating they are in this project. Also fails WP:NFF as, along with nothing at all that mentions this project, there is, of course, no source that it has commenced principal photography. Geraldo Perez (talk) 21:04, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:CRYSTAL Seasider91 (talk) 22:59, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Agree with above: most likely a hoax; couldn't find any references, much less reliable. Might be a small production, but I doubt it has those actors who are currently filming already. Vacation9 23:11, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Absolutely not, WP:CRYSTAL, and in the United States I think the former G4 show of the same name holds dibs on the title, wouldn't be this. Nate • (chatter) 01:32, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I can find nothing to suggest that this is even real, let alone passes WP:NFF. I hate to throw the word "hoax" into this, but considering the amount of hoax film/TV articles that have been added to Wikipedia in the last few months, I think that this is a potential hoax.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:16, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Stache (song)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Delete and merge to parent album Clarity (Zedd album). There isn't really enough information here that warrants a standalone article. Also per WP:NSONGS it fails notability as it has not charted etc. Though Gaga recording some kind of remix is notable, it is not so that an independent page is warranted. It could easily be mentioned on the album's page. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 ^[talk] 23:59, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Clarity (Zedd album) - the album article is short and summarising this there would be better for the reader. If you delete it you can't then merge it to the album. --Michig (talk) 07:37, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Clarity (Zedd album). I agree that the album article is short and could use some more content. It would be better for the reader if the main content was at the album page. Of course it also is not notable by itself. Vacation9 23:15, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hemerocallis 'Duke of Durham'

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Nominate for deletion Has been tagged as of doubtful notability for over 5 years. I couldn't confirm notability. Boleyn (talk)

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2013 January 12. Snotbot t • c » 20:10, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been notified to WikiProject Plants. ★☆ DUCKISPEANUTBUTTER☆★ 06:27, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The cultivar is mentioned in several books and a Google search that excludes Wikipedia still turns up thousands of hits, including the American Hemerocallis Society, a horticultural sciences department at NC State, and numerous nurseries, indicating this is a popular cultivar. The article could use better sourcing (some of the better ones are probably only available offline), but I'd rather see it improved than deleted. Rkitko ^(talk) 20:36, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep For the reasons mentioned by Rkitko above, together with the cultivar having received two awards from the American Hemerocallis Society.--Melburnian (talk) 00:13, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep per WP:SNOW. Not quite a speedy keep, since there was a "weak delete" vote, but the nominator's withdrawal justifies an early closure. (non-admin closure) St Anselm (talk) 21:02, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've Got the Joy Joy Joy Joy

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Nominate for deletion Has been tagged as of doubtful notability for over 5 years; I couldn't establish notability. Boleyn (talk) 20:06, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete A Google Books search reveals that the song's lyrics have been printed in a handful of publications. It's at least slightly notable, but publication in a few books issued by niche Christian publishers may not be sufficient to satisfy WP:GNG. The article notes that the song has "many possible lyrics" and at least one alternate title ("Down In My Heart") so it is possible that alternative search terms could yield better results for establishing notability. --Mike Agricola (talk) 20:52, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Seems to have some coverage, per Google book search, going beyond just printing the lyrics. Some books discuss its importance and place in music of its genre: See [1]m [2], [3], [4]. It also can show a dark side: [5]. .Edison (talk) 21:16, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Keep Keep Keep. Per Edison. This is a famous old gospel song (and I can't resist noting that Granny Clampett used to sing it on The Beverly Hillbillies); it belongs here.--Arxiloxos (talk) 00:27, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Edison and every Sunday schooler who has ever had to sing this song, which is plenty of people. Public domain as I can see it and no issues that can't be done through normal source searching. Nate • (chatter) 01:34, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It appears to be an Asia-only release, so it's not surprising that sources have been hard to come by. But I was able to find reviews of the album in the New Straits Times [7] and in The Malay Mail which I have added to the article just now. Keep.

Death of Franco Garcia

Delete -- the number of redlinks speaks for itself! Clearly a participant only in NN competitions. Indeed, I am doubtful whether beauty queens are notable per se at all. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:27, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above. None of the contests cited are notable enough for an article, so even though she won, winning non-notable contests is not sufficient. To Peterkingiron - I agree with you to an extent, although there is a consensus that if the beauty queen has won a notable pageant at national or international level, ie, Miss New York, Miss USA, Miss Turkey, Miss Europe, etc - that qualifies as notability. Indeed, one could say the same about minimalist articles on World War I flying aces or 1910s footballers, so I don't want to get into the whole "are WP:HOTTIEs notable" thing again.

Hipster sexism

The term was coined and defined a couple of months ago in an article by Allissa Quart on New York Magazine's website. It's basically something she just made up one day rather than a notable concept.

Hipster racism

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This term was coined by Carmen Van Kerckhove in 2006. Since then it seems not to have been picked up at all by the scholarly community. The sources cited in the article, other than the ones by Van Kerckhove, don't use the term, let alone discuss it. Vivicka Greene is mentioned in one source (not in article) as a scholar studying "hipster racism," but that study doesn't seem to have translated into actual scholarly work on the concept. It's just past something someone made up one day, and there are not sources available to establish its notability. — alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 14:29, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Given the upcoming full effects and course of the operation as the French intervention unfolds, I would argue that this article is slightly premature (since not enough has happened concerning the operation to warrant a Wikipedia page), but that deleting it would be a pointless exercise since imminent events will bring the operation's notability up dramatically; deleting it now would only mean adding it again later this week (or equivalent) to bring in new information. Benjitheijneb (talk) 14:54, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The actions covered in the article are already covered (in slightly more detail) in Mali conflict. I would suggest a merge to that article, which would keep all operations, including those by Malian forces together and in context of the wider war, with no prejudice against recreation if French operations get larger and more distinct from those of the Malians.Nigel Ish (talk) 15:03, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict)Merge & Redirect to Mali conflict#French intervention. Subject does meet WP:GNG in and of itself. That being said it is part of a larger event.

Keep - this deletion request is ridiculous! The operation has begun less than 2 days ago and already a full battalion of French paratroopers, special forces, Army Aviation units and Air Force fighter jets have been deployed. This will turn into a major military operation lasting months! Senegal and Nigeria are shipping troops to the area to support the French and the US is preparing logistical help. As said: this will be a MAJOR military operation and the only reason that there is not much material at the article yet is, that the operation has begun just two days ago! It doesn't make sense to delete this article and in less then 10 days to create it again when more information and more material is available! Which will happen as with the French troops also the international press is on its way to Mali. Therefore: Speedy Keep this article! noclador (talk) 16:35, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or rather Remove Deletion Request: 1. The action is a turning point in the war in Mali and therefore is likely to have lasting influence in the region. 2.

Merge as suggested. Although I appreciate the rationale for this being considered worth a separate article as a major turning point in the conflict, having two articles on a largely overlapping subject risks having two articles with different versions of events. The target article can take it, although it needs editing down to condense the inevitable small accretion of detail, and a frighteningly long list of cites that I am sure are often reruns of the same wire story.TheLongTone (talk) 18:13, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You saying France sending attack aircraft, commando units and 300 marines and paratroopers to intervene in an internal conflict, most likely changing the outcome of that conflict, and potentially exposing France to a terrorist attack (security beefed up already) is not a big deal and not notable?...Recount - 5 keep, 5 merge, 1 delete, 1 undefined. EkoGraf (talk) 20:55, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am not saying the event isn't notable, and even if it wasn't particularly notable out of context it would still merit inclusion in the article about the conflict. What I am questioning is the need for an entire article dedicated to external links (basically) that cover a recent event whose enduring and permanent effects are unknown at this point. Thus, at the moment, it merits a paragraph in Mali conflict#French intervention and nothing more. That's why WP:RECENTISM and WP:NOTNEWS exist. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 21:40, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the argument that the subject is not notable is clearly flawed. This is a military intervention by a major military power in an internal insurgency of a foreign country. The question of whether it should be covered here or elsewhere is not one for AfD to decide, but the amount of material on the French contribution is undoubtedly going to grow, and the article may well end up including domestic effects on France [8] which doesn't sit very well in an article about the conflict.

Nick-D (talk) 22:41, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, the Operation name (Operation Freedom Falcon) for NATO actions over Libya redirects to 2011 military intervention in Libya, so if there is a common name in news reports of French intervention in Mali, it should redirect there. Otherwise, just as Operation Iraqi Freedom redirects to Iraq War, Opération Serval should redirect to the general conflict page for current Mali war.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 23:59, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the article title should be 2012 French intervention in Mali, or similar - which would parallel 2011 military intervention in Libya. However the intervention is in a pre-existing conflict (Northern Mali conflict (2012–present) just as the Libyan intervention was in the pre-existing Libyan civil war. It makes sense in both cases to have separate articles. The Iraq war is a different matter as it was an invasion, not an intervention in an existing conflict. Mcewan (talk) 00:35, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Operation Freedom Falcon was the Belgian contribution to the American Operation Odyssey Dawn, which ran parallel to the Canadian Operation Mobile, the French Opération Harmattan and the British Operation Ellamy, which together made up the 2011 military intervention in Libya... Operation Freedom Falcon was not a NATO operation; it was the just the name given by the Belgian Military to the deployment of six F-16 Falcons (hence the name Freedom Falcon) under US command... therefore naturally it does not have its own article! But all the deployments by other nations, who acted under their own national command have their own article! In short: Operation Freedom Falcon is off-topic here. And this discussion is a waste of time as the outcome will be inevitably "Keep" (so: lets snowball close this now!). noclador (talk) 01:01, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

All except for Operation Freedom Falcon, which redirects to 2011 military intervention in Libya; why is it that the United States commanded portion gets the redirect and other nations do not? Given the number of sorties, wouldn't it be independently notable, yet part of the military intervention?

~~If one nation's operation is redirected, it would only be logical that all nations' operations be redirected. And if the primary article becomes too large per WP:TOOLONG, spinouts can occur.~~

That being said, until the parent article Northern Mali conflict (2012–present) becomes too large, the French Operation should get its own section within the main article; and at the point it becomes too large, then it should be spun back out.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 14:27, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

quick note: The Belgians placed their planes under US-command (as other nations), while the US, France, the UK and Canada kept their assets under their own national commands and coordinated with each other. Only when NATO came in all units came under one single command - therefore until this date there were 4 parallel operations! therefore 4 separate articles. noclador (talk) 14:55, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If Col David Stirling himself personally came down from Scotland to Folkestone to attended this man funeral in 1981 when Stirling was not very well - then this says something about Bob Lilley. At a 6ft 1" he was one of the "Tobruk Four" Coldstream Guards he was selected in Cairo by Stirling himself to be one of the first four members of the SAS. His name appears in many books on the SAS. Not many of the SAS originals was awarded the Military Medal and the British Empire Medal and MID (Mentioned in Despatches) twice.

I am knowledgeable on the subject from an academic point of view having worked for the government and I have correspondence on this man from various sources that is not for publication. I was able in the current article to get a declassified document from Army War Records 1940-1944 written by Col David Stirling (the founder of the SAS) himself regarding Bob Lilley on Bob Lilley protectively marked and labeled at "MOST SECRET" level which has recently been declassified and appears in the current Wikipedia article.

I would be grateful if contributors here and proposers for deletion of this article list here their academic qualifications and why they feel they are Subject Matter Experts on this topic. This would help in making a decision one way or the other.

Your knowledge of the subject has no merit here on Wikipedia. You need to cite where someone else has written their knowledge about him. Pretty much, you will need reliable sources that are subject to editorial oversight, i.e. newspapers, academic journals, etc.

Your comment about 'listing our academic qualifications' is wrong. Even if we were all the most academically qualified people in the world, it would hold no merit in an AfD discussion.

That the article(s) from The Mail and BBC were prompted by the occasion of the sale of his medals is irrelevant - being one of the first members of the SAS and appearing in multiple books that cover the unit is enough to get past WP:GNG as far as I'm concerned. Lacking a source for the MDI then, I'd point you to WP:SOLDIER #5: Played an important role in a significant military event.

Comment Pop, please stop heading all your comments as keep, labelling each comment keep is confusing). The MID is easily found in the London Gazette. There is no need for confidentiality agreements, material was has been declassified can be accessed and anyway the MIC certificate and the King Olav certificate can both be seen in this picture.

Comment Thank you for your constructive comment. I know from my academic research that this man deserves and has earned a mention more than say for example Ikechi Anya . Now if we all decide yes we should keep this article as a tribute to a quiet and simple former founder member of the SAS and who never sought publicity. What is to stop someone in two years time deciding to delete him? Pop goes the we (talk) 20:59, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment To answer your question, Wikipedia does not consider notability to be temporary, and a record of this discussion will remain, which can and will be used as precedent if and when someone decides to propose the article for deletion. While some articles are sometimes proposed for deletion multiple times, those tend to be the more controversial ones, and rarely bios like this one where notability has been established and its merits for inclusion determined based on consensus among editors. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 21:05, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: To Pop: Your reasons for keeping the article are becoming more persuasive, but don't mess it up by mentioning "tribute". Wikipedia is NOT a memorial. Boneyard90 (talk) 22:28, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment AFDs do not actually establish 'precedents'; notability is determined on a case-by-case basis, and pointing to other articles instead of sources which establish notability is typically treated as a case of a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS-type argument and ignored by the closing admin. Nick-D (talk) 22:30, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Not sure if you're replying to me or Pop, but I refer to 'precedent' only in the sense that AFDs for a specific article obviously always refer to the same basic topic and basic set of information and provide valuable guidance as to why it merits inclusion (or not) - because notability is not temporary. In this case, the person's notability is not going to decline over time, although of course the opposite is common. That said, I do recognize that many editors don't necessarily look at previous AFDs if they exist, and it's always possible that an an article that was kept before will be deleted in a subsequent AFD. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 22:44, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The Military Medal, a third-level decoration, is certainly not high enough to keep an article (many thousands have been handed out and one would have to have multiple such decorations for inherent notability). His BEM adds to his notability, but not enough for an article. However, I would consider his status as a founder member of the SAS and one of its early RSMs makes him notable enough for us. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:35, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Lilley was one of the few to get MID (Mentioned In Dispatches) and was also one of the longest serving members of the SAS originals having served in SAS from 1941-1957 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.178.231.117 (talk) 11:23, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The few? Come off it. A MiD is an incredibly common award. Many people have been mentioned multiple times for the same campaign. Doesn't give any postnominal letters and doesn't contribute to notability at all. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:12, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the MID doesn't add much - Lilley's is one of 18 pages of names in that edition of the Gazette alone. As Necrothesp says above it's the founder membership of the SAS that is the clincher here, not any of the individual awards. NtheP (talk) 16:17, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Taken from " SAS: the history of the Special Raiding Squadron 'Paddy's men' " by Stewart McClean -- Page 21 Quote " All the members of C Section finished, although Bob Lilley had the almost back-breaking job of carrying one of his exhausted men draped across his shoulders for the last ten miles. Despite the immense hardships suffered by all concerned ..." - In my eyes this man is a hero to rescue and carry a wounded comrade acrross his shoulder for 10 miles in the desert. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.151.100.167 (talk) 23:05, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That may well be (and personally, I agree) but inclusion in Wikipedia is not based on heroism, bravery or valour and should not be based on a want to memorialise great deeds (see WP:NOTMEMORIAL). Instead we need to establish whether the subject is notable. Great deeds that receive coverage in reliable sources can help. Stalwart111 23:36, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Reading all the above comments here this man as an original founder member of the SAS I think the case has been made for this mans inclusion under and I quote item from above comment ""Played an important role in a significant military event" ie the formation of the British SAS? this being a quote from someone above.. Until very recently most people who are not in the know would never have heard of Sgt Bob Lilley. As has been said above and I quote " In discussion and interviews with his surviving family Bob Lilley was a private man who did not seek any recognition for his work. From the documents I was permitted to see and which probably will never be published Lilley served his country well above and beyond the call of duty in the Western Desert of North Africa then Italy and Europe and later Malaya.. He shunned the limelight and lived a quiet simple life right to the end. Little has ever been mentioned or spoken about him in the past. From my research Lilley never received the recognition he deserved because according to his family he would not have wanted it as many like him he said "I just did my job".

In my eyes I would keep this man he is as notable and deserving as some if not more of those who are already included. Pop goes the we (talk)

Nearly every source is the comic itself. The only good source is an interview with the author.

Keep a Hugo award nomination is indeed sufficient, and if you follow the links to the Hugo Award for Best Graphic Story, you'll find multiple nominations listed there, with inline citations for each. Those multiple major award nominations would be sufficient for a personal article under WP:ANYBIO. Jclemens (talk) 23:55, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Hugo Award nom: [17]. The comic was a finalist in the Washington Post's Best Webcomic poll. [18]. The comic itself has also been quoted by the Nyasa Times. [19]. Even Wikipedia related: [20], [21]. Reviewed by the University Press of North Georgia: [22]. Cited in a book printed by the Institute of International Visual Arts: [23]. Also: [24], [25], [26], [27], [28]. "Couldn't find any sources that weren't primary" translates to "failure of WP:BEFORE" here. TPH, noms like this are why you keep drawing the ire of the community. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 00:42, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding #1: The Hugo Award is not inherently notable. #2: Reader polls are not sufficient. #3: Do you really think being quoted in passing is a reliable non-trivial coverage? #4 and #5 are trivial too. #6 is a college paper. #7 is only a directory listing which says nothing about the strip, just names it. #8 is also a reader poll and therefore not reliable, significant coverage. #9 is a name-drop in reference to something else entirely — all it says is that the writer reads it. #10 and #11 are also name-drops. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 02:41, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The bottom line here is that the notability guidelines are badly broken when it comes to webcomics. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 02:44, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So you're arguing "keep" even though you know the notability guidelines are broken? That makes absolutely zero goddamn sense. It's been my experiences that the notability bar is pretty high for webcomics — and that WCCA and Hugo are not sufficient. Nor is being printed. Nor is being name dropped here and there. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 03:06, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, I'm arguing "keep" because the notability guidelines are broken. By a strict interpretation of the guidelines, this is, by your argument, not notable. WP:COMMONSENSE, however, says that it is, and this is hardly the first time that a very "notable" by the standards of being well-known, widely-recognised, and likely-to-be-saught-information-on webcomic has been rung up on deletion charges because of being "not notable". Webcomics get generally ignored by most 'sources' because they're webcomics and, thus, not worthy of mention in their minds. The notability bar is, as you say, high - too high, in my observation. While it's true we can't have a page on every penne-ante comic out there, some of the ones that get nomiated and/or deleted beggar belief. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 03:10, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Which still makes no bleeding sense to me. You don't have to argue on the side of the rules if you feel the rules are broken. If you think the bar is too high, do you also think that name-dropping it in the context of something else makes other works notable? Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 03:28, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I pretty much agree with The Bushranger concerning notability and guidelines here (though I'd say a Hugo nomination can mean more or less depending on the type of work), but even so, we demand reliable third-party sources, because even more important than notability is verifiability. The article has plenty of footnotes but little in the way of reliable sources not connected to the creator. Can that be improved? /Julle (talk) 19:48, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep on WP:COMMONSENSE if nothing else (and I am NOT saying that's the only reason to keep it). I find it interesting that as an online encyclopedia we still basically demand that an article's subject get featured in the (paper) New York Times or similar before some will accept it as a "safe to retain" item. If Schlock Mercenary can be deleted as non-notable on the "letter of the law", then deletionists have won, and we might as well close Wikipedia down and hand it other arbiters than the public and the users (i.e. give it to media corporations like everything else). 125.236.217.145 (talk) 02:24, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Not notable? Is it April Fool's Day? htom (talk) 02:44, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep. 1. If the article is inadequately sourced, the solution is to add sources, not to argue non-notability.

2. Notability factors are considered in toto, not in isolation; otherwise you must agree that because each atom of your body is practically nothing at all, you do not exist. The Hugos, length of publication, size of readership ( I'd bet cash money Schlock Mercenary has more readers than stuff like Sinestro Corps War or probably most single Marvel or DC titles), hardcopy compilations, boardgame etc etc .... accepting the argument that any single one of those factors might not make the subject matter notable, the combination of them make it notable by any rational standard. rewinn (talk) 05:47, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How can I add sources if all the ones I found are shit? Do you suggest I add someone mentioning it on their blogspot? Name-dropping it in the context of something else? HOW are any of the sources that were found reliable, significant third party coverage? Little tiny dribs and drabs here and there don't cut it. It has to be specifically about the strip. Why is this so fucking hard to grasp? Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 06:08, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

1. Potty words don't help your case.

2. Please use tabs (colons) so the thread can be easily read

3. I just added a source. It didn't take long to find.

4. It appears that you are confusing sourcing with notability. These are two entirely different things. Sourcing webcomics and other web phenomena can be difficult if one insists upon using only printed media, but that does not mean they are not notable. The notability criteria to which you keep referring address only presumption of notability and not notability itself. As extensively evidenced above, there is able evidence of notability for this article to overcome its putative failure to satisfy the presumption.

5. Your analysis of notability rests entirely upon isolating individual factors, assessing each as insignificant, and concluding that the entire bundle of evidence is insignificant. This is an incorrect procedure; the evidence is to be considered in toto.

6. With your "grasp" remark, you seem to be laboring under the impression that you have "grasp"ed something that everyone else on the planet is too stupid to understand. This is entirely possible, of course, but an alternative explanation is that the rest of us see something that you do not. Why are you bothering? Wiki Is Not Paper and there is no harm to anyone done by this article. rewinn (talk) 06:16, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

WP:PAPER and WP:HARMLESS are not valid arguments. Where is the notability for this strip? That's the issue you keep dodging. How does it meet WP:WEB? Where are the multiple reliable sources? You only found one. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)}

Keep as being nominated multiple years in a row for the Hugo Award (which is a major literary award, btw, for science fiction and fantasy, despite what you claim, TPH) is definitely notable. That, combined with winning a WCCA award twice ("The website or content has won a well-known and independent award from either a publication or organization.") and being nominated two other times and the coverage in Analog, certainly meets the various notability guidelines. The multiple reliable sources not directly connected to the creator of the comic are refs 47-55 and 61 (which while not terribly notable by itself is fine supporting all the others in the notability arena). ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 08:59, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not seeing any notability for such a list or the other 2 ships you are stating.Curb Chain (talk) 23:15, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That's because you haven't read the secondary sources I have--more sources exist than are documented in most of the B5 articles, because they date from the "ancient times" before such sourcing was commonplace for fictional element articles. At any rate, there is a general expectation that notable fictional franchises are entitled to list articles of fictional elements that span more than one primary work--e.g., List of Firefly characters. In science fiction franchises, space vehicles typically have such lists as well. Babylon 5 articles have not generally been upgraded to such current best practices. Jclemens (talk) 23:25, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fictional franchises are not exempted from our notability guidelines. Lists of fictional elements have to meet WP:LISTN (the group of elements must be significantly covered in independent sources), and there is no topic, whether it is characters or vehicles, that is automatically notable, or "entitled" to be covered on WP, as you put it. The notability of B5 vehicles remains to be proven, and as Curb Chain, I have serious doubts it exists.Folken de Fanel (talk) 03:19, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

GNG has not been met. None of those sources discuss the topic in depth and independently.Curb Chain (talk) 05:20, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You have all of them? The A-Z book isn't available via Google Books. Jclemens (talk) 05:33, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Concur with Curb Chain, none of the sources provide any significant coverage that goes beyond a "definition of the topic" per WP:WHYN (ie plot summary). GNG is not met. Given how most of them only replace primary sources without any content change, coverage doesn't go beyond reprinted dialogue from the show. One passage added by Jclemens is not even about Raider fighters but a character than has nothing to do with them. If Jclemens intends to convince anyone that these sources contain any significant coverage, we'll wait and see instead of blindly trusting his (as of now) misleading descriptions of sources.Folken de Fanel (talk) 12:35, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:SOURCEACCESS. Your inability to access sources is not my problem. You're entirely free to purchase copies of secondary sources that discuss off-the-air science fiction TV off of Amazon Marketplace, just like I do. I've posted ISBNs for everything. Cheers, Jclemens (talk) 17:04, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And your inability to extract GNG-compliant content out of them is not mine. WP:SOURCEACCESS is not the issue here, thanks to GBooks we have easy acces to the 3 sources you added, which allowed me to verify that they don't provide significant, in-depth content on the subject, and thus that GNG is not met, contrary to your claims. I'll wait until we're presented with actual significant coverage to change my recommandation.Folken de Fanel (talk) 17:38, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How about you start by amending your above "none of the sources" statement, to match your revised statement, since we're apparently agreed that the A-Z source cannot be seen via Google Books. Wouldn't want to have a material inaccuracy in your statement, would you? Cheers, Jclemens (talk) 20:36, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. There has not been a major shift since the last closure which ended with it being relisted after a DRV discussion. Clearly, the "delete" side has a point when they argue that most of the entries on the list are sourced to novels or gamebooks, something that isn't independent sourcing. The "keep" side of the argument is that the list of items is a reasonable spin-off, and that some of the entries have been covered in independent secondary sourcing. (The latter argument is true for a few of the entries, but not most of them.)

With the community that has participated here equally divided, a "no consensus" is the usual outcome unless there is a violation of a core policy that mandates deletion (issues concerning the notability guidelines are handled on a case-by-case basis). I have looked at the policy, and the main issue is whether we have a violation of the "no original research" policy as most of the article is based on the novels. Yet, the content that is based on that is not analytic or synthesis and can therefore be based on primary sources. The few analytical parts of the article are the ones referenced to e.g. the article by Wolf. The No Original Research policy also forbids basing an article entirely on primary sources, something that this article comes close to doing, but while it is toeing the line, there are some secondary sources in the article as well, so it is probably not across the line. I am therefore closing this with the default outcome of no consensus. Sjakkalle (Check!) 17:25, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of Dragonlance artifacts

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article fails Wikipedia's policy on indiscriminate collections of information; we do not list random items that happen to exist in a fictional universe on Wikipedia. Furthermore, the phrase "List of Dragonlance artifacts" is not a useful search term and would cause more harm than good if it were turned into a redirect elsewhere. There is no information on this list that is sourced by reliable, secondary sources that could be merged into another article. The category of "Dragonlance artifacts" is not notable, nor are the individual entries on this list. Neelix (talk) 19:49, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

chop up, merge and transwiki - While they have in-universe notability, I think the work here is best served by merging the individual artifacts to various pages. Transwiki the lot to a Dragonlance fan wiki. I do value the work done here by many of the people that take hours out of their lives to put these articles together and I would rather not see such work go to waste. About the only one that I might find is something on the Dragonlances. I recall a book on modern myths that compared them to Excalibur in terms of their value to the plot.

Keep per BOZ and Casliber. The reason we have list articles of fictional elements is to deal with lots of not-individually-notable elements, from a notable fictional franchise. This should not be hard to understand, yet some people clearly don't seem to understand the benefit. Jclemens (talk) 03:13, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, fails WP:LISTN, I don't see any significant coverage of artifacts in Dragonlance as a whole, merely plot summaries (which don't qualify as significant coverage per WP:WHYN) for a few entries. Agree with nominator as to why such lists are not needed on WP. To efficiently deal with not-individually-notable fictional elements, we should just not mention them at all beyond what can fit into plot summary sections of notable articles. The need to make WP a directory or memorial to every fictional device (characters/objects/cities/weapons/ships/etc) that ever existed goes against WP:IINFO and particularly WP:NOTPLOT. Fan wikias are better suited to such a task.Folken de Fanel (talk) 03:05, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

LISTN can't be "failed" because it's not exhaustive - it explicitly mentions other ways to achieve list notability that are not being notable as a group. A list that points to the articles of the works where the artifacts appeared is a navigational list valid per WP:LISTPURP and WP:CSC#2 and #3. Diego (talk) 12:04, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Contains only plot summary from fiction (WP:NOT#PLOT), no real-world discussion, therefore nothing worthy of inclusion.

Per WP:SPINOFF, "Spinouts are intended to improve readability and navigation, not to evade Wikipedia's content policies." There isn't a single source dealing with the artifacts as a group, and no significant content going beyond mere mentions within plot summaries, so WP:LISTN and WP:NOTPLOT still aren't met.

- Sources don't adress the topic as a group and don't provide any content besides plot summary. WP:LISTN is not met.

Which is not possible here since there is no secondary sources on the group to expand from.Folken de Fanel (talk) 13:04, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:NOTPLOT and WP:IMPERFECT, and I quote NOTPLOT: Articles "should contain more than a recap or summary of the works' contents. Such articles should be expanded". It's easy to expand the article with not-in-universe references to the works and years of publication where each artifact appeared, and NOTPLOT instructs us to do exactly that, which couldn't happen if the article is deleted. The article already contains elements that are not plot, such as the books, movies and video games that included. Expand those, and remove what can't be sourced. Even if that results in a stub, WP:STUBBING is a viable alternative and preferred to deleting everything. Diego (talk) 11:50, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And how do you plan on expanding without sources ? What about WP:LISTN ? "Books, movies and video games" are primary sources and as such are the same as plot. We need secondary and independent sources and real-world coverage.Folken de Fanel (talk) 13:04, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I did find some mentions of him in various books on Victorian era stuff. He's name dropped quite a bit, enough to where I'd say that something he wrote would be usable as a reliable source. But does that make him notable? I don't know, to be honest. I did dig up some sources for him. I would also say that the Grumpy Old Bookman blog review might be one of the very rare times when a blog source might be usable as a RS for a book review. I don't know that it's savable, but I did add some stuff to the article.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 18:06, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

all academics give thanks to everyone they've ever met at any occasion. Authors do similarly, and I suppose other professions also. This means nothing. It's why we require significant references. I take a very broad and flexible view of what counts as significant, but the absolute opposite of significant is "mention" DGG ( talk ) 05:12, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for lack of evidence of passing WP:PROF or any other notability guideline. Being an independent scholar, although unusual, does not preclude academic notability, but in this case the citation record does not support WP:PROF#C1, most of the other WP:PROF criteria assume a professional academic career, and we don't have the in-depth coverage of him in independent reliable sources needed for WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:32, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

After you just voted to keep Henry Bonilla, why would you feel compelled to nominate this guy for deletion, despite a near certainty that he was the topic of at least a couple stories over the course of his three decades in minor league baseball? - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 09:35, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Bbbny, while I sympathize with your comments regarding inconsistent treatment/use of the notability standards of AfD discussions, I gently remind you that the burden is on those editors who support the "keep" position to demonstrate sufficient depth of coverage in multiple independent, reliable sources to satisfy the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG. In the mean time, I'll try to keep an open mind in this AfD. Improper application of notability standards in one AfD discussion is not an excuse/reason/jusitification/precedent for misapplying the standards in another. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 10:24, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I understand, but these AfDs aren't brought here by random people who don't know any better. 75% of the baseball AfDs are nominated by the same small group of people, who seem to do it more out of boredom or their love of AfD debates instead of a desire to improve Wikipedia. Worse, their standards seem to shift from AfD to AfD. (And yes, I know about assuming good faith, but we've moved way past that in these AfDs. We have people claiming that one game in the Italian League is enough to meet notability and then turning around and nominating Jim Napier, who spent 30 years in professional baseball, for deletion just because his career preceded the Google era. It's a needless waste of everyone's time.) - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 11:49, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
To address your point about sources, clicking on the "News" link above yields dozens of Google News hits for Jim Napier, including this, this, this, this and this. I didn't even bother looking past the second page of hits. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 12:05, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

First, second and fifth references are reliable, independent sources in which the depth of coverage supports the notability of the subject per WP:GNG. The third reference is routine/transactional coverage, and the fourth falls somewhere between, but both are reliable and independent even if they don't rise to the level of "substantial." Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 12:44, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

While I understand your points, his performance does not qualify under WP:BASE/N. He managed in the minor leagues, but "minor league players, managers, coaches, executives, and umpires are not assumed to be inherently notable" per the rule. Coverage from his playing days appears to be routine game recaps and blurbs. I may want to reconsider, however, as his job of "field director of player development"[38] may be considered a major league one, which may be enough to push him over the edge of notability. Alex (talk) 18:24, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alex, WP:NBASEBALL is a specific notability guideline (SNG), which is a fast-track determination of notability for specific classes of subjects. However, merely because a subject fails an SNG does not mean that subject cannot still satisfy the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG, which requires substantial coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources. Based solely on the first, second and fifth references cited above by Bbny, this subject passes the GNG requirements. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:31, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to disagree. Considering the length of his career, 'notable' coverage seems rather scant. Alex (talk) 18:46, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alex -- perhaps then you should not consider the length of his career. But just the level of coverage. It is odd to adversely impact a person for having a long career, for these purposes -- the suggestion is that if he had the same coverage in a much shorter career he would be notable. In any event, perhaps the views of others here will be helpful in communicating community consensus on the general topic, and be an aid when considering future AfDs.--Epeefleche (talk) 02:48, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that he had a long career may well have increased his notability. I am not sure why that is in any way a problem. In any case, with a career starting about half a century before the internet became popular, some of the apparent "scant"-ness of coverage may well be a function of the fact that most historic newspapers, periodicals and even books are not reflected on Google. Despite that, what is there is more than adequate. Rlendog (talk) 01:23, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Roller coaster does not yet exist. Unlike other articles for future roller coasters, there is no definitive proof in reliable sources to indicate it ever will exist.

I'm concerned about his notability (good faith!). Perhaps I'm wrong, but, the majority of the citations here are press releases, or papers written by him, and patent documents - which don't establish notability. Again, I could be wrong. On a slightly related note, we've had some concerns about neutrality, and about a potential COI editing the article. But, it's the GNG that concerns me the most.

Weak delete ~~Reluctant keep~~ - I'm seriously unimpressed with the WP:SPA creation and subsequent meat-puppetry here (including from someone who claims to have written about the subject and is cited as a source in the article). I'm also unimpressed by the use of the subject's CV as a "source" (seriously, I kid you not) and the original research that has been used to interpret some of those sources and extract "facts". If I were the subject, I would be very embarassed that someone had attempted this in my name. Nonetheless, there's enough actual coverage of the subject to meet WP:GNG in my opinion. Someone should take a machete to that "source" list, but the article should probably be kept. A real shame that people thought a genuinely notable subject needed to be spammed into Wikipedia in this manner. Stalwart111 10:03, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Having had a think about it and having seen more of the same at Talk:Eric Gould Bear, I think I would like to see more significant coverage of the subject that isn't WP:BLP1E in style, with regard to the legal challenges. Either that or one of the subject's many just-add-water supporters could have a crack at a re-write with due regard to WP:NPOV and WP:PROMO. Stalwart111 10:17, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is quite a difficult one. For notability, there are a few hits in Google Books, but without adequate preview to assess. Patents alone are insufficient and some of those mentioned are the subject of litigation (see The Register ref). I can see little press coverage for anything other than patent litigation against Apple, etc. The overall impression is of a career in the IT industry leading to a career in patent enforcement and litigation. And a very professionally promoted image of which this article appears to be part. It is just possible that there is something there for WP:GNG, but ironically may be obfuscated by all the promotional and corporate material. Mcewan (talk) 13:35, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. He doesn't seem to have the citation record (under old or new names) to pass WP:PROF#C1, so any notability would have to rest on WP:GNG. I removed some very low-quality sources from the article (search results, primary sources, and sources that didn't mention the subject) in an attempt to sift through what's there to see whether we have any nontrivial coverage of him, but didn't find enough. There are a few reliable sources that mention him trivially [39] [40] [41] in the context of the ongoing patent litigation, but that's all I found, and I don't think it's good enough. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:06, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I quickly went over the article, trimming it down to the parts that are at least fairly well-sourced. There's not much left. It looks like he might be notable.

Delete, the meatpuppetry and poor article quality are disappointing, but not themselves reasons for deletion. However, after looking a bit closer I don't really see anything other than a professional doing work in the industry. The fact that the industry is very much "on line" seems to be skewing Google searches so it looks like there's a lot there, but I don't feel in all honesty that the sources provided show that he meets any notability bar.

Delete. The character does not seem notable, and the article for the show cites no resources. Even if the show is notable, that does not mean that every character in the show is, too. Unles some good sources are found, the article should go. Howicus (talk) 04:23, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The character is one of the main protagonists of the show, she had a cameo in the last episode of the second season presented as a character with a key role in the story, but she starts to have major screen time in the fourth season (the latest one). My article doesn't have many resource because all the info can be found watching the last two seasons that I have already linked above. A subbed english version can be found on youtube but since is not official I din't give the link. Anyway, on the wiki list character of qin's moon page she's enlisted as a protagonist here so I thought it was good to give her a personal page, but I didn't image it would turn so complicated. This is her Baidu page and it's said "《秦时明月》中的女性角色之一" "One of the female lead". This is her baidu tieba. Officina (talk) 07:41, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I think is a little stupid that the reason of the deletion is the notability of the show and even more of the character.

Firstly I thought Wikipedia was an encyclopedia not the book of fame.

Secondly I thing I already demostrate the notability of the show, but if it's not enought then on Crunchyroll(A streaming site of japanese anime) there's the first season. Qin's moon is Crunchyroll first and i think only chinese anime.

And the last but not the least, how can I prove the importance of a character? That's impossibile, you need to watch the show to determinate if a character is important or not.

That's all I had nothing to say anymore, If you're not convinced yet then delete it. Salute! Officina (talk) 07:41, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - actually, we don't need to have watched the show. We need to have seen reliable sources that verify article contents and notability. We haven't yet, so as far as we can tell, the subject fails our general notability guidelines. Stalwart111 10:42, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

keep . Nomination witout merit. Plenty of albums, plenty of sources. - Altenmann >t 22:38, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cn you explain their notability then? One sentence saying they are a folk music ensemble doesn't write anything about the artist, where they signed to a major music label? Did their music net certified gold or any charts those are just a few criteria we require found WP:MUSBIO. If you can help explain that as there is literally nothing in the article that claims notability. Note having albums doesn't mean it's a notable band just that they can make records. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 00:41, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, please refresh your knowledge if WP:MUSBIO. Having albums in major label is one of criteria. I can only assume that you are not aware that in 1970s, unlike today, there were no "non-major" labels in Estonia, and "can make records" you could not on a PC in garage. Now a small quiz for you. Can you go and read criterion #1 yourself? And then re-read the article? And then verify reliability/significance of sources cited? - Altenmann >t 03:37, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What about the albums since the 1970's particularly the 90;s and 2000's still no major label or making it a chart? and recording your own Vinyls was possible even then using your own gramophone. I still think there is a lack of asserted notability here. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 03:45, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The sources already in the article include substantial articles from Estonia's two highest-circulating newspapers apparently specifically about the group. GNews contains several dozen more hits, almost all in Estonian or (occasionally) Russian - not all will be reliable and substantial (and, not knowing either language, I can't easily search through to find which are) but some are likely to be. GBooks shows references to Kukerpillid as one of Estonia's leading folk-music groups in sources spread over the last thirty years or more (though, as most of these are only visible on snippet view, it is difficult to judge how substantial they are). The article definitely needs to be improved to become more than a short introductory sentence and a list of albums, but the materials needed to do that are fairly clearly there, even if they are mostly in Estonian.

Charles Ashburner

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

There seem to be major issues with this article and I suspect it may be a self-authored biography (using an alternative account), judging by the duplicate on Ashburner's Wikipedia user profile. This article is almost entirely about the activities of the Flag Institute and Ashburner's company, MrFlag (both which may have a stronger claim to notability). Citations in this article are to copies of letters uploaded to Wikipedia and (strangely) to claims of press coverage with Facebook URL's (already broken). The only online coverage I can find are brief mentions in relation to flag-related topics, but nothing significant about him. IMO this sort of WP:PUFF article is totally unwelcome on Wikipedia!

Delete Apparently the equivalent of an assistant professor ("Lector"), most of whom are not notable. The article is indeed highly promotional.

Delete. With relatively junior status and lack of heavily-cited academic publications, he does not appear to pass WP:PROF, so any notability would have to rest on WP:GNG and on the claims in the article that he is "very active in promoting psychology to the large audience". But the maze of very bad sources (some of the footnotes go to other Wikipedia articles, others to publications that do not mention the subject) make it difficult to determine whether there are any reliably-published sources that are independent of the subject and go into sufficient depth about him to pass GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:48, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result was Keep. People seem to have forgotten the spirit, rather than letter, behind the rules and guidelines that we have. The reason we have a general notability guideline in the first place is to adhere to WP:V - the idea that articles should be verifiable. The notability principle exists as a corollary of this to say that to ensure the verifiability of content, the subjects of the articles that contain that content must indicate that they can reasonably satisfy the verifiability standard by having multiple, citeable sources that can be relied on to validate added content. This is why the standard for notability is "sourcing" rather than something like relative importance: it's an objective standard that takes into account the need for verifiability.

The problem with this objective standard is that it sometimes leaves out content that really should be included. For that reason, subject-specific notability guidelines were created like WP:POLITICIAN. They exist to augment the general notability guideline by providing for cases where, while the subject may not pass the GNG at the time of the creation or deletion discussion, they held a position (or hold a position) which has substantial media attention focused on it, resulting in the creation of sources we can use that we just can't find at the time of the deletion discussion/creation (whether this is a valid approach to take, I will not comment on; not my role). But the fact of the matter is that these guidelines exist to augment the general notability guideline for subjects, not to supersede the general notability guideline. In other words, whether someone passes WP:POLITICIAN having passed WP:GNG is moot; they've passed the GNG.

People haven't really discussed the GNG, or the concept of "notability", preferring to focus on the guideline for politicians: this sort of makes it difficult to make a judgment call. We're saved from Yet Another Relist by User:Sjakkalle, who was kind enough to note that "The article is reasonably well sourced and should pass the general notability guideline" in his comments (the italicising is mine). With that argued for, and in the absence of anyone arguing that she is, regardless of secondary guidelines, not notable, it's a fairly obvious keep. In future I'd suggest people start arguing from first rather than second, third or thirty-seventh principles: WP:POLITICIAN and the other secondary guidelines were created for circumstances where people failed the GNG but held an important office. The argument being made around it here is the complete inverse of that. Ironholds (talk) 01:08, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Although improvement is certainly needed, Barrie is a city large enough that its mayors are notable per WP:POLITICIAN. The relative paucity of web-available sources does not disprove that, either, as Barrie Examiner content from the 1970s isn't all that likely to turn up in computerized international news retrieval databases — rather, its distribution is almost certainly limited to Canada. I'll certainly take a stab at improving this, but WP:POLITICIAN is quite clear that mayors of significantly-sized cities are notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia. Keep. Bearcat (talk) 00:27, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree WP:Politician says "significantly-sized cities" - it says "national, state or provincial legislature", which is a very different thing. Other politicians should have "received significant press coverage" or meet the general notability requirements. - ManicSpider (talk) 03:00, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - I'm sorry I can't always keep straight what's in WP:POLITICIAN vs. what's in WP:POLOUTCOMES instead — but as the latter will clarify better than the former does, AFD most certainly has established a very clear precedent in favour of keeping mayors of cities the size of Barrie. And again, your failure to find coverage of Ms. Parker in an electronic news database doesn't disprove that, as the Barrie Examiner, to name just one paper in which she's likely to have received considerable coverage, is a newspaper that isn't likely to be distributed in any news database that you can access from Australia — if a Canadian, who would obviously have access to a much wider range of Canadian publications than you do, still couldn't find coverage of her, then that might be different, but Paul Erik already found at least one citation in The Globe and Mail, the absolute gold standard newspaper of record for Canadian topics, within just five minutes of my asking for assistance, so there's clearly more coverage out there to be found if and when somebody can devote more than five minutes to the task. Wikipedia does not require its sources to be available electronically — even if someone has to dig into some oldfangled microfilms at their local reference library, that still counts as valid sourcing — and the failure of one news database to contain all possible Canadian newspapers does not mean that no valid sources exist in other locations. And at any rate, the article already contains five distinct sources, which is more than sufficient to demonstrate basic notability even if the prospect of locating additional sources were anywhere near as poor as you seem to think it is.

weak Delete Barrie is large enough now at 133,000 for its mayor to be notable. In 1970, its population was 26,000; In 1976, it would not have been large enough that the mayor is notable.. Our practical cutoff seems to be at 50,000. It is only rational to go by the historical status at the time . (We will need to make adjustments for overall population growth in the world, or perhaps the country, but I don't have any immediate proposal for quantitating that. ) DGG ( talk ) 01:56, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The practice has traditionally been that if a city is large enough now that its mayors qualify as notable, then any historical mayor who can be reasonably sourced can have an article regardless of how big or small the city was at the particular time they were mayor. Even New York City and Los Angeles once had populations below 50,000 too — yet we don't apply a "population in their own era" cutoff to separate notable from non-notable mayors of those cities.

Delete I can't see anything to suggest Parker was remarkable in any way, unfortunately. The 2007 column in the Barrie Advance says little, other than she was "solid". The contemporary news articles are the briefest mentions only. I appreciate the idea that elected mayors of large connurbations are likely to be notable, but WP:POLITICIAN specifically doesn't say that. Sionk (talk) 02:28, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Except that WP:POLOUTCOMES — which is every bit as binding as WP:POLITICIAN in the absence of a compelling reason to make an exception, because it's a corollary document that's meant to be read in tandem with notability rules — specifically does say exactly that. Bearcat (talk) 01:57, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I agree with Bearcat's analysis. Barrie is a fairly significant population centre, and the mayor of such a city is naturally the focus of some attention. The article is reasonably well sourced and should pass the general notability guideline. Sjakkalle (Check!) 17:35, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A search for reliable, secondary sources reveals an insufficient amount of significant coverage. This article fails Wikipedia's notability guidelines for astronomical objects; there has not been "significant commentary on the object". Other similar AfDs include Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/(20692) 1999 VX73 and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/18104 Mahalingam. Neelix (talk) 03:21, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Both of which ended up with redirection and no deletion. So what's different about this "similar" case that means that redirection is not an option and the article has to be outright deleted? Uncle G (talk) 05:15, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I was under the impression that AfD was the appropriate avenue for recommending deletion/redirection because merger discussions suggest that there is useful content for merger. I would be glad to simply redirect in the future if that is the more appropriate procedure. Neelix (talk) 19:27, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - AFD is for getting an administrator to use the deletion tool to remove a page and its entire edit history. Redirects, and even mergers (which is probably a good idea in this instance, since the "named for" information isn't in the list), can be just done. If one wants to do a mass of them for a whole load of astronomy stubs, but wants some confirmation of one's approach beforehand, then Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Astronomy/Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Astronomical objects or Wikipedia:Village Pump or even Wikipedia:Requested mergers are the places to bring the subject up for comment by other editors.

The way to do these is not quite clear: there seem to be multiple overlapping processes and multiple opinions about when to use them. My own take on this is that the normal editing mechanism should be used for redirects that are not expected to be controversial, but that if it is challenged and cannot be quickly resolved, bringing the article here is the most effective way to get an enforceable resolution to the question.

Delete - I actually don't want to vote for deletion considering the JP Wikipedia page is written much better and this is a fast-growing authentic offshoot of Kyokushin, but asides from an RT article here [42] there simply isn't coverage in EN; there is no sourcing from independent news outlets. The RU Wikipedia page has half-dozen dead URLs and the rest redirect to commercial sites. The only reason it should not be deleted in the JP Wikipedia is because of Minoki Ichihara [43] who competed in UFC 2, and what is notable in JP internally is not necessarily notable for EN Wikipedia, so articles like Kenichi Osada [44] stay because tracking Karateka is notable in Japan through print publications and events, even if not covered by Yomiuri, Mainichi, et al.

Sinitus Tempo

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This musician does not appear to meet the notability guidelines (see: Wikipedia:CREATIVE).

The article relies on two types of self-published work:

1) the self-published albums and social media pages of the musician (see: Wikipedia:MUSICBIO)

2) mentions of the musician by self-published music blogs (see: Wikipedia:BLOGS)

The content of the article appears to be comprised almost entirely of original research (see: Wikipedia:No_original_research).

I have researched this musician and cannot find any sources that mention this musician, other than self-published music blogs or the musicians own social media profiles (see: Wikipedia:VERIFY).

I have reviewed the article history and can find no revisions that meet the wikipedia guidelines for inclusion or suggest that this musician is notable (see: Wikipedia:GNG).

As a result of the above I suggest this article be deleted.

Comment - I'm incredibly concerned that this user's very first actions have been solely to do with this AfD... Then again, the article itself was created by an SPA. I've found these links, I'll leave others to debunk them: [45], [46], [47], [48].

Comment - I understand your concern. However, a user does have to start somewhere. For me, this is the first time I have seen something that I felt I could help correct. The article in question has existed for over six months, doesn't appear to conform to the guidelines, and yet is not being amended or removed. I would love for others to contribute and look at the links you provide. From my reading of the guidelines (for example: Wikipedia:MUSICBIO, Wikipedia:BLOGS) these sources do not qualify as reliable, nor does the musician qualify as notable. --64Winters (talk) 16:36, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with much of this. The Birmingham Conservatoire link IS independent - a perfectly reasonable and informative piece on a forthcoming performance which lists several more prizes won by Omordia which are not listed on the Wikipedia page. The criticism of the review link is unjustified because Omordia has achieved much since that review. For example the Delius prize which she won back in 2009 is a nationwide UK competition which attracts a considerable number of entrants. It might also be noted that Omordia is one of the few living classical musicians with African heritage to be included on Wikipedia's pages. Another reason to keep this profile. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GHOUSE68 (talk • contribs) 09:36, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A venue where an artist will be performing will have a natural interest in promoting that artist, and cannot really be considered an unbiased source of information.
If the Delius Prize is indeed significant under WP:MUSICBIO point 9, an article on that competition should be written, explaining how it's notable.
Wikipedia reflects reality. If, say, 3% of notable living classical musicians are of African heritage, then approximately 3% of our articles on notable living classical musicians will be on ones with African heritage. We don't artificially inflate that number to serve an agenda. Of course, we shouldn't deflate it either, but I don't think we'd be doing that by deleting this biography. The subject seems to be on the upswing, and will probably be more clearly notable in a few years. - Biruitorul ^Talk 15:52, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually I think you will find that less than 1% of living classical musicians listed on Wikipedia have African Heritage GHOUSE68 (talk) 09:51, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't know the percentage on Wikipedia, and I don't know the percentage of living notable classical musicians in the real world who have African heritage. I have no reason to dispute what you say, and I used 3% as an example. The point is, our goal should be having articles on notable classical musicians regardless of race, not having articles on classical musicians of questionable notability in part because of their race. - Biruitorul ^Talk 17:27, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge the new articles with the existing articles about the political parties. Also, the creator should provide references for the information in the articles. He or she hasn't provided any references for the names and periods of service of the officeholders of either party. — SMUconlaw (talk) 16:15, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - This article was recreated after a previous PROD deletion. The subject does not meet WP:ENT nor the more general notability guidelines for inclusion. --Jezebel'sPonyo ^{bons mots} 20:24, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect somewhere, possibly to Power_Rangers_Turbo#Turbo_Rangers - She was known entirely for her Power Rangers work and probably led a private and personal life afterwards. Google News searches only provided two results here and here (first result from the top) and a Google Books search also provided results relevant to the Power Rangers. We could redirect the article to any of the TV shows but Turbo Rangers was the first one. SwisterTwister talk 21:18, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Eric Brooke Dunlop

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Appears to be a non-notable ornithologist. Article does not claim any notability. Only sources are obituaries in The_Auk and Ibis_(journal). I could only access the former, which also showed no indication of notability. When it comes to AfD, this article seems to be a similar case to the recent Rev. Samuel Gilbert Scott article.

Delete The obit indicates no notability. The key phrase is: "Another promising young ornithologist has fallen a victim to the war ... Eric Dunlop,... at the age of 30. " The obit goes on to discuss the work he was preparing, and the opportunities he had. The Auk has always included very short articles, and writing a number of them is not necessarily a scientific accomplishment. In short, what we'd call "not yet notable" To judge better, check the obita in the same pdf for the others: (1) Edward Pearson Ramsey, Director of a National Museum, Honorary Ll.D, founder Linnean Society of NSW, described as "The leading ornithologist in Australia." (2) Emil August Goeldi, Directorship of a museum that became so important it was renamed after him, publisher of multiple volumes, discoverer of the mosquito carrier of Yellow Fever, Prof of Zoology at Bern.

Those are notable ornithologists. This is why we differentiate between routine and substantial obits. DGG ( talk ) 01:20, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per DGG above. This deletion is contentious because it at the surface appears to have a valid notable obit, but upon deeper examination does not reveal any especial notability. -T.I.M^(Contact) 03:04, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, agree that the obit looks like it makes him notable at first glance, but when you look deeper at it there's not really that much there from a notability standpoint. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 07:53, 19 January 2013 (UTC).[reply]
