This is a made-up airline that I almost CSDed as a hoax before spotting the link to Virtual airline (hobby) - there are zero reliable sources out there and it's unlikely there ever will be any. I redirected it to the virtual airline article since there is no possibility of it ever being a valid article, but was reverted. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 23:18, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

- So... this is a legit part of some VR/flight sim MMO? Doesn't need its own article, but might there be call for a list of such virtual airlines? Jclemens (talk) 22:13, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Jclemens: Why? –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 22:59, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- We have a List of MUDs and several other, similar articles that document, in part, popular amateur-created content. If this rises to that level, then why not have a list in which to collect all the NN content (per WP:LSC)? Jclemens (talk) 00:12, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Jclemens: Those are all games, not fictional elements within those games. We have a strong tendency to delete or prune WP:FANCRUFT lists without out-of-universe reliable sourcing. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 21:01, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

- Delete as there is not coverage on this from reliable, secondary sources. I do not think a redirect to the virtual airline (hobby) article would be beneficial since this is not mentioned there and would likely be confusing because of this. Aoba47 (talk) 04:10, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

Unable to find any reliable, independent sources demonstrating notability for this company per WP:NCORP. Google Books and News show nothing, Google search shows only company pages (Facebook, IMDB, etc.) with no third-party reporting.

- Delete Nothing there - does not pass WP:NGEO Lightburst (talk) 00:45, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - I've been able to find some references to a post office at Silver Hill, Chattooga County, Georgia and to a subdivision in Atlanta, but nothing beyond a listing in a 1990s USGS publication that says nothing significant about this and a couple of references to the "Silver Hill Road". I can't even fathom what was ever supposedly here, as it's a point with basically nothing there on the edge of a large swamp on old USGS topos. Hog Farm Talk 03:16, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. Newspaper sources are fairly confounded, and none of them that I can see are referring to a locale. None of them are from Charlton County (or even any county adjacent to Charlton). If Hog Farm cannot find anything either, that pretty much settles it as far as I am concerned. jp×g 18:26, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

- Delete WP:NGEO this might be a road.. Lightburst (talk) 00:48, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete The only references to it I could find in a newspaper search were several railway schedules from the 1880s. I'm guessing this was either a railroad siding or at most a short-lived station, and the GNIS recorded it as a populated place rather than a locale, as it's done for so many other railroad locales in the western states. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 01:09, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete It's unclear what the name on the map refers to, but whatever it was doesn't seem to meet WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG. –dlthewave ☎ 20:53, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: The marsh itself probably meets WP:GEOLAND, but this is about the supposed community; delete seems to be the only option. BilledMammal (talk) 01:21, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to Glynn County, Georgia. Newspaper results show that this definitely existed. However, the only mentions of it are as a train stop in 1886 through 1888. The only subsequent coverage is in two passing mentions in 1893. jp×g 18:23, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. Fails WP:NGEO. While I appreciate JPxG's source hunt, I'm not seeing how mentioning a train spot at this location in the county article isn't WP:Undue weight, and I'm not a fan of redirects to articles that don't mention the topic.4meter4 (talk) 00:07, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:BASIC - she is cited in the news as an expert by multiple independent and reliable sources, including with in-depth coverage beyond her employment, e.g. UW Health says Midwest is in critical need of convalescent plasma (WKOW, January 2021, biographical information, expert opinion), 'I wasn’t sure there wasn’t any hope in sight': Milwaukee hospital workers reflect on one year since COVID-19 pandemic began (NBC4, March 2021, biographical information, expert opinion), Dane County leads state in COVID-19 vaccination, but racial disparities persist (Wisconsin State Journal, May 2021, also includes biographical, career information), Racial disparities heightened with COVID-19 crisis (Capital Times, May 2020, multiple paragraphs highlighting her experience and expert opinion), 'Black resilience' theme of this year's Juneteenth celebration (Wisconsin State Journal, June 2021, biographical and career information, parade marshal, expert opinion), Black women are five times as likely to die in childbirth. Here’s what that looks like in northeast Wisconsin. (Green Bay Gazette, July 15, 2021, several paragraphs), Wisconsin's New Epidemiologist Wants To Be A 'Listening Ear' For Statewide Community (NPR Wisconsin, May 2021, interview, "As Wisconsin's newly-named chief medical officer and state epidemiologist, Dr. Jasmine Zapata said she will use her experience as a physician [...]"), With Wisconsin Disparities in Mind, Researchers and Advocates Reimagine Health Care for Black Mothers (PBS Wisconsin, April, 2021, includes biographical and career information, e.g. "assistant professor and researcher at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health"), so there appears to be sufficient sourcing to support an article. Beccaynr (talk) 21:40, 23 September 2021 (UTC) There is also this academic work (co-authored) and a recent appearance on PBS News Hour (August 2021) as an expert, as well as this: Empty Cradles: Is stress to blame for preterm births? (Journal Sentinel, originally published August 2011, republished August 2021, biographical, education, significant coverage). Beccaynr (talk) 22:03, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- Please remember that this venue is WP:NOTCLEANUP. As the nominator, you have the same (or perhaps greater) obligation to improve the article. pburka (talk) 14:24, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- I am happy to expand this article, and currently working on it - I usually tend to wait for at least one other participant !voting keep in an AfD discussion before I attempt WP:HEY, but with scope_creep's encouragement, I am going for it. Beccaynr (talk) 14:52, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- I agree with pburka. The onus is not on an AfD voter to add those sources to the article. Many if not all of those sources could have been identified in a WP:BEFORE by the nominator. TJMSmith (talk) 18:15, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- I also agree with pburka, but had interpreted the request as specifically directed at me, and maybe informed by my general history at AfD, and/or maybe what I have posted in the Selected Work section of my userpage, or my self-identification as one of the editors known for behaving like dogs spotting squirrels. I also sometimes accept requests to help expand articles at my Talk page, and with the above feedback in mind, that seems like a better forum for future requests. I do review AfD to find articles to improve, and I apologize for how my enthusiasm for a wide-open field of squirrel contravened the general process. Beccaynr (talk) 02:05, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment per WP:HEY, I have not yet added all of the sources I found above, but in the course of my expansion of the article, I found and added more sources that further support WP:BASIC notability, including e.g. Madison pediatrician Jasmine Zapata kicks off Midwest 'Girls Empowerment Tour' (The Capital Times, 2018), Madison pediatrician, Hip Hop architect, UW professor team up for Kenyan girls fleeing abuse (The Capital Times, 2018). And from my view, her honor as a parade marshal in a Juneteenth celebration is worthy of mention, particularly in the context of the rest of the article and the themes of her career. Beccaynr (talk) 04:04, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment. This list of cemeteries suggests that Murrays Crossroads was once a community. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 04:16, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Eastmain, I think we should be cautious about using Findagrave for this sort of thing. Aside from being unreliable as a user-generated source (see WP:RSP), three of the cemeteries in the list are some distance from the crossroads [1][2][3]; one does not show a specific location but appears to be a family burial plot [4]; and the only one at the crossroads is just a single grave [5]. I'm not sure how they came up with their location categorization but many similar sites use an algorithm to identify the closest named point on the map without any vetting to make sure it's actually a community. Even if we take Findagrave at face value, keep in mind that cemeteries are often found in areas with dispersed populations and don't necessarily indicate the presence of a community. –dlthewave ☎ 21:32, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Merge (or delete) with Schley County, Georgia#Communities. Take the relevant into and have a short write up there describing the cross roads. I don't think it's notable enough for its own article yet I think it deserves mention in the county. Masterhatch (talk) 19:21, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - Historical topos show an intersection with a few buildings. I'm not finding any coverage indicating that this was a community, so I'll chalk it up as a named intersection that GNIS mislabeled as a "populated place". I also Oppose Redirecting without substantial sourcing. –dlthewave ☎ 19:53, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. I was expecting to be in favor of deletion, but there are in fact sources referring to this as an inhabited place. One in 1893 refers to it as a "prosperous country settlement", and another in 1959 refers to it as a "town". It is also referred to as having been a settled area (with its own post office) in this NRHP document. I have incorporated this information into the article; I think this should address the concerns that have been brought up. * jp×g 18:12, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

According to the article itself, this isn't a community, but more likely just where the store (Jot Em Down Store) in question was. The coordinates lead to some farmland and houses. wizzito | say hello! 22:31, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

- Delete - GNIS describes it as a locale and there's no evidence that this was ever anything more than a country store. The article history is quite revealing and is an excellent example of how Wikipedia manufactures unincorporated communities out of whole cloth. The original version [6], though unsourced and written by an inexperienced editor, sounds plausible: "... not an actual town, but actually just a local landmark that citizens use for navigation purposes. Due to its navigation uses, it is often referred to in map and atlas listings." But then someone who'd been around long enough to know better inexplicably rewrote [7] the whole thing as an unincorporated community, still with no sourcing whatsoever! This type of behavior creates a huge workload at AfD and was never acceptable, even in the early days when expectations were much lower. –dlthewave ☎ 04:54, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- Redirect to Gilmer County, Georgia, since it seems fairly borderline; people are familiar with Jot 'em Down's Seed and Feed (formerly Chuck's, perhaps). Newspaper sources confirm this, with a 2014 story mentioning that there's one in Forsyth County, and that "a Jot Em Down Store was so popular in Pierce County that the unincorporated community was named "Jot Em Down", according to "Georgia Place-Names"."

- Delete. Newspaper sources are badly confounded by the presence of a Goose Island in Chicago; even when restricting the search to sources from Georgia, this is still the vast bulk of results. There are 160 of them, from Fulton, Muscogee, Bibb and Troup County (none from Gilmer County, where the alleged island is located). There is a Goose Island near Kansas City, a Goose Island near the Atlantic coast in North Carolina, a Goose Island in Illinois, et cetera. Nothing referred to by that name in Georgia. So what about the island itself? Per USGS maps, from 1888 to 1911 there wasn't even a lake at those coordinates. In 1935 they don't seem to have finished drawing the quadrangle (this is quite bizarre and I've never seen it before). At any rate, in 1946 there is a "Goose Island" labelled on the map, but it sure as heck isn't an island (as, still, there is no lake indicated). By 1988, the lake has finally decided to show up; there are indeed a couple of very small islands on the northern end, but they are nowhere near the "Goose Island" label; they seem to be gone by 2011 regardless. What I'm taking away from all this is that Goose Island was the name of something or other (since the lake is named Goose Island Lake), but it wasn't a populated community, and it wasn't an island. jp×g 17:56, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

- Delete; it doesn't seem to be an inhabited place now, and per newspaper results, it doesn't seem to ever have been. It's referred to as a mill in every source I can find: in 1885, "Mr. E. A. Carter exhibited in down an alligator which he killed while it was asleep on a log at Barrett's mill pond with a blow from a rail, on Tuesday. The gator was eight feet long, and had an ugly look about him". In 1886, "a negro at Binns & Barrett's mill had his finger cut off last Tuesday by the saw". In 1891, "the dam out at Barrett's mill, on Walnut branch, near Waynesboro, is gone". Later we find two mentions of a bridge over Barretts Mill creek. I do not see evidence of a populated place, only that unfortunate accidents were visited upon a man, an alligator, and a dam on three Tuesdays in the late 1800s. jp×g 17:17, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Nothing on the map, no archived news articles, not even the typical autogenerated stuff. –dlthewave ☎ 23:28, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- One more thing: Altamaha Park and Altamaha Place have the same GNIS ID, which would indicate either some sort of error or an alternate name for the same place. –dlthewave ☎ 23:30, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. As dlthewave mentions, the GNIS entry referenced by the article is for "Altamaha Park", not "Altamaha Place". There are no newspaper mentions of "Altamaha Place", ever; it seems like this was a typographic error in the creation of the article. When you search "Altamaha Park", there are several results, but they seem to be referring to a place in Toombs County (like this 1969 mention). It also mentions here that it's a recreation area on the Altamaha River, so I think it's possible that there are lots of different parks along the same river being referred to by this name. There does exist a website for the Altamaha Regional Park, which mentions 56 campsites; this park has five newspaper mentions. At any rate, however, that's for Altahama Regional Park; "Altamaha Place" seems to simply not exist. jp×g 17:09, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:NEXIST, and because it appears that the nominator has not done a WP:BEFORE and was mostly preoccupied with the article's current contents. I found the following English language sources through a 5 minute search on Google Scholar:
- The Mutant Land: How the Island Krakoa Dictates the Mutant Society in House of X
- Radiant Beings: Narratives of Contamination and Mutation in Literatures of the Anthropocene
- Lifeglows Through the Anthropocene: Development of the Radical Imagination and Response-Ability Within Superhero Comics
- Representations of Israel, literal and allegorical, in X-Men comics, apparently has a significant section covering Krakoa's analogy to the state of Israel, along with Magneto's various bases.
- This is before we even start counting various pop culture and entertainment websites and outlets that discuss Krakoa in a less serious manner. I did not bother with a Google Books search because a lot of false positives came up, with lots of results for the X-Men source material itself. There is this book which provides some helpful insight into its concept and development. jc37 is spot on, this topic represents a major though recent milestone from Marvel's canon, and the sources I highlighted are very recently published.

I highly doubt this is a real place, but instead a WP:GNIS error. A 2017 edit (https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Maine,_Maine&diff=780561315&oldid=772063754) stated "The location designated as a "village" is actually the name of a siding in the township of Ft. Fairfield, ME. The GNIS ref: is likely due to a typo as the location is on the Main Siding Road". The coordinates listed in the article on Google Maps show a farm, a few buildings, and a trail. Unfortunately, it's a little hard to verify any other info as it's pretty hard to find information, considering that this 'village' has the same name as the state it's in, and since the GNIS website is down at the moment. wizzito | say hello! 21:07, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

- It doesn't look like either "Maines Siding" or "Maine Siding" turns up anything useful either; almost all of the results are either local siding businesses or OCR mistakes.

WP:BLP of a writer, not making or reliably sourcing any strong claim to passing our inclusion standards for writers. The notability claim on offer here is that she and her work exist, with no indication of the distinctions (literary awards, significant reliable source coverage analyzing the significance of her work, etc.) that it takes to turn existence into notability -- the closest thing that was present, until I stripped it as a violation of WP:ELNO, was a handful of direct offsite links to online bookstores or web-published copies of her own work, and while there have been additional footnotes here in the past that were recently removed by an editor claiming to be the subject herself, they were still just of the "her own work cited as proof of its own existence" variety rather than notability-building third party media coverage about her or her work.

New article created after previous article deleted just a few days ago; WP:G4 rejected. Article still suffers from the same WP:NORG problems, namely that there is little to demonstrate that this one-issue anti-vaccine fringe party is encyclopedically notable.

- Delete. As per the prior AFD, political parties are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because it's possible to use primary sourcing to verify that they exist — the notability test is the reception of reliable source coverage about the party in media to get it over WP:GNG and WP:ORGDEPTH. The Le Journal de Québec citation is the only one here that's starting to put a foot on the right path — but it doesn't get this to the finish line all by itself if it's the only solid major media source in play and you're otherwise relying on a mixture of primary sources and smalltown community hyperlocals. Bearcat (talk) 20:30, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- WP:AUD allows local sources to be utilized to demonstrate notability if at least one national or regional source is included. The sheer amount of local coverage puts this subject across the finish line. Mottezen (talk) 05:21, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- AUD most certainly does not say (or mean) that the moment you can find one decent quality source from major media you're allowed to rely entirely on smalltown community hyperlocals otherwise. Local coverage isn't entirely verboten in Wikipedia, and I never said it was, but local coverage isn't necessarily enough all by itself if it's virtually all that a topic actually has — we do require broad coverage from a variety of major media, not just smalltown pennysavers, and that coverage does have to be analytical in nature rather than just local reportage of election campaign events and results. One national source is merely the starting line, the bare minimum that has to be present just to make the article not speediable — it is not in and of itself the finish line, and does not represent enough coverage to automatically require keeping the article in a full AFD discussion.

- Keep. Article creator here. Didn't realise there was a previous AfD. In my opinion, it's just unencyclopedic to have a party that got 46000 votes (and counting, 1%-2% everywhere it ran) and federally seventh party in terms of support not to have a page. The Le Journal de Québec piece gives plenty of information; I'll look for more and better sources, but there's plenty of regional coverage of particular candidates (and I don't see anything in notability that would disqualify local coverage). In my opinion, someone looking at the 2021 election in 2050 will want to know that this was a "Free from Covid-restrictions" rather than a free trade or a free zoo animals or a correctional reform party. I assume everyone realises, but just for reference, coverage is pretty much all in French so English non-finds not so relevant. Sheijiashaojun (talk) 20:56, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

- keep: It’s very easy to find adequate french-language sources on this party on Google. Mottezen (talk) 05:10, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Nearly all of the sources you can find, including many currently used in the article, report the same info you'd find in a campaign flyer, and in the same promotional tone: here's some basic biographical info on the candidate and their vague, idealistic vision of what they'll do if they're elected, with no editorial or critical review whatsoever. Here are some examples:
- [9]: "le Parti libre souhaite bâtir une économie locale plus solide, soutenir les aînés pour qu’ils n’aient pas à payer des loyers exorbitants et améliorer l’accès aux services." (Roughly: "The Free Party wants to build a stronger local economy, support seniors so they don't pay exorbitant rents and improve access to services.")
- [10]: "Son implication en politique se résume à la maxime suivante : « Je ne changerais pas mes enfants pour rien au monde, mais je changerais le monde pour mes enfants ». ("Her political involvement is summarized by the maxim, 'I would never change my children for anything in the world, but I would change the world for my children.'")
- [11]: "La jeune mère de famille veut une démocratie qui laisse plus de place aux jeunes. Elle se définit comme une citoyenne tannée qui veut que ça change." ("The young mother wants a democracy that makes room for youth. She defines herself as a [bold? literally "tanned"] citizen who wants things to change."
- [12]: "Le Parti libre prône une démocratie directe et donne la priorités aux enfants, parce qu’au final, on fait ça pour eux. Je pense beaucoup à la prochaine génération." ("The Free Party preaches direct democracy and giving priority to children, because in the end, we do it for them. I think a lot about the next generation.")
- [13]: This strange "interview", in which the party's leader rants and raves about the "acidification" of Saint-Sauveur, and actions he would take to "alkalize" the community, which for one is clearly not an interview (the supposed interviewer doesn't ask any questions) and is also not about the Free Party, it's about Leclerc's run for mayor of Saint-Sauveur in 2016.
- These are all clearly press releases written by the Party, given to local papers for free publicity, which the local papers print with minimal review (see the second bullet under WP:NEWSORG, or churnalism more generally). Also notice how the candidate photos used in the article are the same ones that appear on the Party's website. They cannot be used to establish notability: they are not independent, and rather than evidence that the organization attracts any level of local or regional attention, they are evidence that the Party has a marketer on staff.
- That all being said, the remaining few sources suggest an organization that may be worthy of inclusion in a List of minor political parties in Canada if such a list existed (there is such a list for Israel and I'm sure others must exist). But there is just not enough reliably-sourceable information on this party to warrant an entire article. Ivanvector's squirrel (trees/nuts) 13:16, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

Here are some examples:
- You highlighted the worst of these articles in the list above, but here are better local sources currently in the article. While they mostly rely on information given by the Free party or the candidates themselves, the majority of local sources in the article are not republished press releases, but firmly secondary sources. One of them was even republished by the Canadian Press. Mottezen (talk) 20:06, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment What User:PEIsquirrel says is true of a lot of the reporting, some of it outright, some of it thinly veiled, but not of Journal de Quebec or of the various non-churnalism pieces like this https://montemiscouata.com/le-parti-libre-du-canada/ or this https://ici.radio-canada.ca/ohdio/premiere/emissions/bonjour-la-cote/segments/entrevue/370521/bianca-girard-candidate-parti-libre-canada-manicouagan-cote-nord or this 17-minute interview https://www.cfjufm.com/entrevue/elections-federales-2021-louis-berube or the Journal Acces pieces in Saint-Sauveur. Yes, the latter are about Leclerc's run for mayor for Parti libre Saint-Sauveur (also here https://www.journalacces.ca/michel-leclerc-presente-equipe/) Leclerc: "Mon ambition est de lancer le parti ici dans le village, puis de conquérir la province et enfin le fédéral, pour améliorer notre liberté." So it's the same party according to him. I wouldn't make the article because the party has such great coverage--it's pretty terrible--but I would have it because I don't think at that level of support it should be a red link, so we use what there is. There are ten parties with pages that got fewer votes in the 2021 election. Sheijiashaojun (talk) 19:05, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- User:PEIsquirrel tanné(e) means "fed up" in Qc French.
- Interviews, in which somebody directly associated with the party is answering questions in the first person, are not support for notability — a source has to be third party analysis, written in the third person, to be legitimate support for notability. This is because notability is not a measure of the things the article says, it's a measure of the extent to which sources without a vested interest in promoting their own activities have analyzed and assessed the significance of the things it says. So notability is not "the party did stuff", it's "the party garnered a certain specific type, depth, volume and range of media coverage about the stuff it did". Bearcat (talk) 21:35, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Bearcat It seems to me that Notability doesn't say it needs to be analytical. In reality the range of coverage that needs to be met is a judgment call around what constitutes 'significance.' The party gets voted for enough and covered in minor ways in third-party reliable sources (Radio-Canada, TVA, Journal du Quebec, small broadcasters and papers) enough for me to deem that it is significant, but not for you. Fair enough. But there isn't actually a specific type or depth or volume. Sheijiashaojun (talk) 23:20, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Exactly, when a political party runs in 60 ridings and gets tens of thousands of votes, I don’t care about whether it meets a SNG designed to exclude ad-like articles or not. Mottezen (talk) 06:21, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- The thing you have to keep in mind is that sometimes sources that look like news coverage are actually still just thinly-veiled rewrites of the party's own self-published press releases about itself rather than coverage that actually establishes notability. Sources don't just have to verify facts, they have to establish the significance of said facts — for example, the mayor of a town or city is not automatically notable just because you can find one news article verifying her winning vote totals in the mayoral election, and instead establishing the notability of a mayor requires substantive coverage of specific things she did in the role. So notability is not "the facts can be verified", it is "a reason can be shown why the preservation of said facts in an encyclopedia for posterity is important". Bearcat (talk) 16:25, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- The result this party got in the election is reason enough to keep this encyclopedic article. Users have to keep in mind that this party did not even have a website one month ago. WP:NORG's otherwise justified emphasis on the quality of sources used in articles is too burdensome in this case, and can be ignored. Mottezen (talk) 19:47, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. I was indifferent on the first AfD, but there seems to be enough sources now. Plus, I think they did surprisingly well in the election for a fringe party (they won more votes than the Greens in a number of ridings), so I believe there is an encyclopedic need for this article, as I think people will be curious about what they're all about and why the did so well.-- Earl Andrew - talk 14:25, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. From what I can determine, the party won a significant percentage of the vote in several ridings, and especially in Quebec. Even if the party does not see success in the next election, it will remain historically relevant for the results of this election. The National Citizens Alliance has an extensive article of 25000 bytes which is 50 bytes for every vote it received.
Gardez. D'après ce que je peux déterminer, le parti a remporté un pourcentage important du vote dans plusieurs circonscriptions, et surtout au Québec. Même si le parti ne connaît pas de succès lors de la prochaine élection, il restera historiquement pertinent pour les résultats de cette élection. Alliance nationale des citoyens a un article étendu de 25000 octets, soit 50 octets pour chaque vote qu'elle a reçu. CactusRoy (talk) 04:22, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep I did look at this initially and think of closing, but given strong opposition expressed by a few, I felt better to !vote. The publicly expressed political interests of sizable segments of a population are inherently notable. To be crude this is quantitative: if we have political parties receiving more votes than the populations of some nation states (eg Monaco, Faroe, Marshall Islands) whose politicians are accorded presumed notability under NPOL we should resolve this inconsistency in favour of inclusion and not deletion of the similarly small. Located in context (COVID-19/surge in populist right politics/fringe anti-science/well-being politics) this is a political phenomenon attracting electoral support worthy of note.

And Together We Served is based on user submissions as well. Aside from namecheck in other sources (and oddly no one seems to be able to produce an RS for his DFC aside from the TWS site), there's a major lack of RS.

- Delete Only that pair of two-line paragraphs plus the city resolution seem to indicate any tangible notability, the rest is mostly just fluff. Some of those works which may look reliable from a glance (5 to 11) are only used in that off-topic digression on footnote A, and don't really cover the subject in any meaningful detail. There are also sources which are self-published (Gatling), and others which are not reliable (CAF and TWS, if the as-of-yet unrebutted statements above are correct). Source 1 may be adequate (7&6 thinks so, Mztourist thinks not) despite its short length, but overall that's really not much to go on. Avilich (talk) 19:47, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. His documented role as the first (or in a group of the first who achieved it simultaneously for accuracy) African American combat fighter pilot passes criteria 2 of WP:ANYBIO as we generally document first achievements among minority groups as significant historical achievements within wikipedia.

- That's quite a distortion of facts. The delete voters are the only ones to have done a competent and serious Before – the others have simply thrown around bland statements like 'there are reliable sources' without any elaboration.

- I'm assuming you're not including the Anime results in that search as part of those "dozens or hundreds of books"? Or the Barbie one? Or the hundreds of simple mentions in photo captions or class rosters (many of which are contemporary and thus possibly primary sources)? And let's not forget the Book of Irish Names. Someone's name in a photo caption does not automatically equal notability, and poor sourcing (like the cite I removed) doesn't add anything to the article. Intothatdarkness 21:44, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- To clarify, the dozens/hundreds of books about the Mac Ross, the topic of this AfD, which is pretty obvious. This comment was made in good faith to help readers find reliable sources. I've already found and added 2 more to the article taken from that list. Just as Mac Ross felt that he was on trial every time he flew, anyone voting keep or adding sources can expect resistance at every turn ("Or the Barbie one" sigh). -- GreenC 22:15, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comparing Keep voters to Ross strikes me as more than slightly dramatic and likely in bad taste. The basic sourcing of the article remains poor, and the additions don't really speak to his basic notability. As a group, the Tuskegee Airmen are notable. Individually, it varies greatly just like members of any famous or notable military unit. Ross didn't survive the war and go on to higher rank in the Air Force (like other Tuskegee pilots), his DFC isn't sourced anywhere other than Together We Served (and it doesn't appear on their current listing for him) and didn't achieve ace status (which seems to confer automatic notability in AfD). Intothatdarkness 22:56, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Tuskegee airmen are notable based on their wartime contribution and their historic integration of the U.S. Army Air Corps. Tuskegee airmen are also inherently notable based on their collective award The Congressional Gold Medal awarded in 2007. At the minimum we have a an easy pass of WP:ANYBIO. I think the gold medal should end any debate about notability and I have added it to the article with references showing the congressional act and an article which states that the Tuskegee Airmen were posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal.

- By that reasoning each of the up to 20,000 Chinese-American servicemen and 200,000 members of the Civil Air Patrol who served during WWII are also deserving of an article, as do each of the 20,000+ Montford Point Marines who similarly integrated the Marine Corps.

- @Lightburst: If you are alive when awarded, any living member of the unit/group are eligible to receive one. For instance, when the Borinqueneers Congressional Gold Medal was issued, you were sent medal as long as you could prove that you served in the 65th Infantry Regiment during the Korean War. Best, GPL93 (talk) 03:26, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- So 20,000 was hyperbole? In the case of the Tuskegee Airmen they all awarded even posthumously. In addition they broke the color barrier in the US Army Air Force. Undoubtedly a more significant contribution based on the US History of black white relations. And perhps some of the mentioned deserve articles. We should not penalize one because the other is absent. Cheers Lightburst (talk) 03:44, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Lightburst: My apologies as I thought you were talking about receiving a physical copy of the medal. It is technically awarded to all members of the honored group, alive and deceased. So yes, all 20,000 people were honored.

- The secondary source mentions the posthumous award. The Tuskegee Airmen are notable. Lightburst (talk) 22:04, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:ANYBIO. Tuskegee Airmen, especially some of the first, are going to be of historical and social interest, notable by virtue of their contribution to civil rights, military treatment of African Americans, and actual military action. It's worth pointing out, I think, that until WWII (and even thereafter) military action involving African Americans (including the Civil War) was often about them, rather than by them. That is, fighting over their rights, enforcing oppression, or responding to civil rights action. The Tuskegee Airmen represent one of the first instances of African Americans in the military, and even then they faced significant barriers and objections. Does keeping this article mean we "risk" having to cover some other Tuskegee Airmen? God, I hope so. We cover a great many people less worthy of note (who have made a considerably less meaningful contribution to their field) and I'm fine with covering a few more of these guys. St★lwart111 05:29, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- No-one disputes that the Tuskegee Airmen as a group are notable, the question is is Mac Ross personally notable? Which of the 3 heads of ANYBIO do you think he satisfies? Mztourist (talk) 06:21, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- 2, arguably 1 too. That others have made the same contribution doesn't diminish Ross' contribution. St★lwart111 06:39, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- 2 is essentially the matter being debated here. He certainly doesn't satisfy #1 as he didn't receive any such individual award. Mztourist (talk) 06:56, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: User:Stalwart111Genius level 100. Thank you.Lightburst (talk) 13:45, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Mztourist, sure, and I think he passes #2. But on #1, WP:ANYBIO simply says, "well-known and significant award or honor"; it does not say the award or honour needs to have been an individual one. I agree that an individual award would put it beyond doubt, but just like winning a gold medal as part of a relay team, or winning a significant industry award as part of a team... St★lwart111 01:04, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- #1 of ANYBIO says "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor" that means an individual award, not being part of a group that received an award, otherwise every member of every group that recieved a well-known and significant award or honor would qualify, which is not the intention. Mztourist (talk) 02:55, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- I suspect that if it meant that, it would say that. It doesn't though. But yes, every member of a medal-winning sporting team is considered notable. St★lwart111 04:48, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Wrong. On that logic all 1074 Women Airforce Service Pilots, all Montford Point Marines, all 2996 9/11 victims, all 200,000+ Civil Air Patrol members etc. are individually notable. Mztourist (talk) 14:19, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Wrong? Which part of the guideline did I quote incorrectly? That you would like for it to be interpreted that way doesn't change the wording of that guideline. But yes, by that logic, yes they would. It is up to us to apply common sense. St★lwart111 00:41, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, completely wrong. The individual needs to receive the award not a group. #1 of ANYBIO states "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor" if it meant a group then to quote you "if it meant that, it would say that".Mztourist (talk) 05:17, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- Again, you can interpret it that way, but that's not what it says. At all. St★lwart111 00:52, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

- Like many guidelines and policies it is worded intentionally open-ended to leave room for specific cases to go one way or another depending on consensus discussions. No closer will say Stalwart is absolutely wrong, they will note it is a minority opinion in the AfD. Debates over group awards and ANYBIO go back since the start. For example a physics team share a Nobel or 5 people share a major award - that's why ANYBIO doesn't specifically exclude group awards, there are cases people think are OK. Nor does it specify a cut-off number for group size, that's up to consensus. Stalwart's opinion is valid, but it is minority in this AfD. -- GreenC 04:14, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- All true, though I did say (at the start of this sub-thread) that is was "arguable" that he "also" met #1 of WP:ANYBIO, having already met #2. There is no specification in that guideline that the award should be individual, though I agree that's the sensible and common sense standard to apply in most cases. In this case, it's moot anyway.

- Again, you can interpret it that way, but that's not what it says. At all. St★lwart111 00:52, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, completely wrong. The individual needs to receive the award not a group. #1 of ANYBIO states "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor" if it meant a group then to quote you "if it meant that, it would say that".Mztourist (talk) 05:17, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- Wrong? Which part of the guideline did I quote incorrectly? That you would like for it to be interpreted that way doesn't change the wording of that guideline. But yes, by that logic, yes they would. It is up to us to apply common sense. St★lwart111 00:41, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
- Wrong. On that logic all 1074 Women Airforce Service Pilots, all Montford Point Marines, all 2996 9/11 victims, all 200,000+ Civil Air Patrol members etc. are individually notable. Mztourist (talk) 14:19, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- I suspect that if it meant that, it would say that. It doesn't though. But yes, every member of a medal-winning sporting team is considered notable. St★lwart111 04:48, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- #1 of ANYBIO says "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor" that means an individual award, not being part of a group that received an award, otherwise every member of every group that recieved a well-known and significant award or honor would qualify, which is not the intention. Mztourist (talk) 02:55, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Mztourist, sure, and I think he passes #2. But on #1, WP:ANYBIO simply says, "well-known and significant award or honor"; it does not say the award or honour needs to have been an individual one. I agree that an individual award would put it beyond doubt, but just like winning a gold medal as part of a relay team, or winning a significant industry award as part of a team...

- Keep - To add to what's already there, here are a couple newspapers.com clips: Airmen of Steel, Philatelic room to honor Tuskegee unit flier,
Black History Month: Mac Ross, and Walk of Fame in Dayton Daily News, Dayton Negro First to Join Caterpillars in The Journal Herald (these articles span about 70 years). It's a problem when local coverage is all we have, but this supplements the other sources and claims to notability with several articles specifically about the subject in these reliable, albeit local papers. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 05:31, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep https://www.congress.gov/congressional-record/2005/02/09/house-section/article/H422-2 The official government website that keeps track of such things says he was one of the "original five Tuskegee Airmen". Dream Focus 21:32, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- The Congressional Record keeps track of things read into the record in Congress. As such it's arguably a primary source, and subject to bias as well. It doesn't keep track of who was part of the "original five Tuskegee Airmen", it records that someone said he was. Intothatdarkness 23:08, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep - I sincerely believe there is enough coverage in reliable, independent sources to warrant notability, though perhaps the coverage is less concentrated and more scattered across RS than other WP:GNG cases. I think things like the Dayton Daily News, The Journal Herald, and the university sites are what we should be leaning into. That said, the article is an absolute mess and all the memorial/blog websites out to be purged (Together We Served, etc.). The Francis 2008 citation that uses 9 different pages is absolutely garbage for WP:VERIFY purposes in that format and the actual pages that support the given information need to be narrowed down. Also note that one can always create a list of Tuskegee airmen, I don't think each one is inherently individually notable, but as a group they are. -Indy beetle (talk) 21:36, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- I wasn't suggesting that, at any rate good to know there is a list article where the less notable ones can be merged. -Indy beetle (talk) 16:36, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- You are right there's no question of notability. I've tried to address some of your points by removing some sources and making verification easier. The TWS source remains but now tagged [better source needed] and collapsed into a single cite in one isolated section. I think the most valuable thing of this Wikipedia article from a historical perspective is to get the facts of his death in one place - I doubt the PR agent from the US Post Office was aware of this story or wanted to advertise it when they honored him as a role model for children, though plausible deniability remains. Seems like Col. Davis was trying to cover it up to cover any blame, we'll never know the truth. -- GreenC 19:31, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- I'd prefer a better source for the DFC, honestly. It's odd it's not reported anyplace else (at least someplace that's RS). And I'd still direct interested people to the link in my comment below. Putting the effort in BEFORE these articles reach AfD seems a better use of time, even if it's not seen as glamorous or attention-getting. It also cuts down on drama and poor (frankly offensive) comparisons like the one made earlier in this discussion. Intothatdarkness 23:09, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep I have edited the lead-in to more clearly describe what the list is about and what should or shouldn’t be included on the list. I originally created the list because there wasn’t a list which referenced similar standards which can relate to one another, even though the categories of standards included is broad. I understand that the list may seem a loose collection of different categories, I do think this list is of value, useful for education about different standards and for linked reference purposes. RW Marloe (talk) 08:22, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep International standards are obviously notable and we don't seem to have any other equivalent list. The only issue seems to be the word "common" in the title, which seems unnecessary.

- Delete Indiscriminate and random collection here, seemingly original research of various concepts lumped together. Not sure what makes amino acid codes any more "international" or a "standard" than any other scientific notation, or why the recycling symbol, which is not actually internationally standardized ("countless variants of it exist worldwide"), is a standard any more than countless other widely recognized symbols. Traffic lights are not international standards (List of variations in traffic light signalling and operation), nor is the broad topic of musical notation. Tally marks are done differently all over and are by no means a "standard"! The word "common" is not the only issue, and even without these examples this is absurdly vague and goes beyond just needing clean up and should not be kept in mainspace at the least. Reywas92Talk 03:45, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
DeleteJust the list of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards is broken down into at least 25 articles which just list the titles of the standards. This is international standards from just one international standards body. The category Lists of standards contains others, many of which are international. A list of all international standards would be duplicative and better addressed using categories. Ike9898 (talk) 14:38, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

- This is incorrect. When I lived in the area in the mid 1970s, the Morning News and Evening Journal were published as separate editions, in the same typeface and all, by the same publisher. Acto our own article, the "merger" into a single edition wasn't accomplished until it was bought up by Gannett in 1989, but even before that they were simply morning and evening editions from the same publisher.

The actress is a known face in TV industry and commands fair fan following. The article caters to those people who admire the actress as a one stop source of relevant information about her. Information is also supported by verifiable links. Referred sources have significant coverage of the actress and are reliable, hence the deletion should not be proceeded and the notability tag should also be taken off, Dumbo shaan (talk) 07:33, 19 September 2021 (UTC)
The actress has played lead role in Gupta Brothers which was a popular show on Star Bharat and she is the lead of the show Mauka E Vardaat as permanent cop through out the show. She is the lead in telugu film Director , she is the lead in telugu film Hundred Crore, she has played a prominent role in Tenali Rama and like this many other shows she has done for Television. All the necessary links to prove the fact are available on internet and can be provided to prove the fact. Caad001 (talk) 09:02, 19 September 2021 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
No significant coverage in reliable sources. Searching Google Scholar and Books, I find no reliable sources discussing "xenia epigrams" as a concept. The only reference in the article is to a book by a minor 19th century poet who used "xenia" as a heading in one of his poetry books; the fact that one author has grouped some poems under the heading "xenia" no more makes "xenia epigrams" a notable genre than the fact that the same author grouped some poems under the heading "triflings" makes "trifling poems" a notable genre. His using the term once does not significant coverage make. Even assuming that "xenia epigrams" is used in the sense given (which I can find little evidence for!), the fact that no sources discuss it means that this can be nothing more than a dictionary entry.

I'm not seeing how this gym fits the notability requirement. The only notable bit about this gym is that the Rua brothers founded it. There is no references or in depth information about the gym itself. I'm not able to find any in depth articles about it. Per sherdog, the gym hasn't really produced any notable fighters apart from the founders themselves. The official site link doesn't work anymore and their social media accounts haven't been active for years. Just a local gym at best so I don't think it warrants its own wiki page.

WP:NOTDIR & WP:NOTEVERYTHING - just because we have a single reference (the company's official handbook) doesn't mean that we have to replicate every single entry in the contents section. This list of obsolete 1970s and 1980s computer interface and memory cards adds zero value to Wikipedia and is already summarised to good effect in the parent article Q-Bus. If anything, the sentence there that states "A wide range of interface cards are available for the Q-Bus." could be expanded with a short list grouping the different types of interface. It could also be that this list, being lifted from the source, is copyvio if the descriptions in the function column are lifted word for word - as some seem to be. 10mmsocket (talk) 07:56, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- I'd separated it from the parent page in question as IMHO the list was overly long and distracting; deleting this page would therefore be an overall removal of information that existed prior to the page's creation, which isn't to say it shouldn't be done but that some caution should be exercised if that wasn't the intended result. The alternative is to re-merge it back into the Q-Bus page but that would simply take us back to where we started (unless the list can be collapsed; I don't know enough about the finer points of Wiki code to know if that's possible nor how it would be accomplished).
- I also dunno if I'm supposed to write "disagree" or "oppose" or something like that in a fancy colour!
- --Vometia (talk) 08:02, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Further edit: I'd also remark that "zero value" is rather PoV. Old systems, their research and restoration are seeing a lot of popularity so the information is valuable to those people and its removal therefore unhelpful: what is Wikipedia's value if not to people who are searching for that information? --Vometia (talk) 08:04, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Looking at other legacy (or even current) bus systems, e.g. VME, ATA, SBUS, UNIBUS, I do not see any other lists of cards. There is a perfectly good and accessible list of Q-BUS cards in the single reference on the article Digital Microcomputer Products Handbook 1985. I don't see why that guide needs to be replicated as a Wikipedia article. Whether the list is here or back in the original article doesn't get around the fact it is way more detail than is necessary. 10mmsocket (talk) 09:32, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Depends on one's definition of "necessary"; trouble is, it's a rather subjective measure. tbh I don't have a lot invested either way and as mentioned previously, the article's creation was specifically to remove clutter from the parent. But I tend to fall on the side of being loath to nuke potentially useful information. I guess I disagree with the deletionist stance as the dividing line between useful/useless is an absolute judgement based on an arbitrary cut-off point of the particular deletionist's own devising. Anyway, that's probably a discussion for elsewhere (and another one I'm not all that invested in), my point is that I don't see what is gained by deleting it but I see potential problems with doing so. --Vometia (talk) 11:48, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

Appears to fail the notability, reliable sources and verifiability tests. Nothing suggests it introduced any breakthrough technology or in any way contribute to the development of the gopher protocol or gopherspace, all that we can see is that it is another run-of-the-mill gopher server. The only secondary source mentions it in passing, merely confirming its existence. Good faith search failed to find any other references.

I believe that this article should be deleted due to the nature of this article being sourced by nothing but unsourced genealogical entries on findagrave. In fact, if you search on Google for Hugh of Austrasia, all of the first page is nothing but unsourced genealogical sources, or the Wikipedia article.
I have actually heard of Hugh before, while doing genealogical research. I came across it on a very poorly sourced megatree and I have a feeling that either, this dude isn't real, or he is unverifiable.
Setting a Google search parameter for anytime before Dec 31 of 2015, shows no results for me on Hugh whatsoever, except for a WordPress, and a few other sources that don't provide any sources, and seem to be merely lists or previously stated genealogical sites. I think that someone needs to show me a scholarly article or source mentioning Hugh, or else this article should be deleted, perhaps along with some other Austrasian Kings.

This was tagged for A7 which I cautiously declined, but I'm not sure whether the subject is really notable. A lot of the references in the article, while they are about him, read like press releases and may not qualify as WP:RS.

The article has been left unreferenced and as a stub for 11 years, the only information on the article has been the school address which clearly fails notability even for high schools. There are many schools in Vietnam with the same name, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of information available about this specific school. If worth-mentioning, the article is also an orphan.

- Thank you @Eastmain for the source finding, however still when I searched up "Nguyễn Du Secondary School 139 Nguyen Du Street" and similar search terms, I get sites that are basically mirrors of this article, or sites that copy the information of this article. I thought I found another name for it called "Nguyễn Du Gifted High School" but from what I found searching that up, they seem different. From the news search, I only found minor mentions such as this, I think same applies with the sources you gave. If more sources are found that give more than a small mention, then I think that this article might be notable. Perhaps I am just bad at source finding.

The lede describes this fossil fish species as "a dubious species for the dubious genus [...] Muzaffarabadmachli". Single ref, link given goes to the wrong publication - the correct one (acc. to PBDB) appears to be something I cannot even link to due to blacklisting;[1] that publisher is Scientific Research Publishing, a house of ill repute. No other hits in the literature except for original description. - As recently discussed, this author has an uncertain reputation; taking that into account and considering the only source is a predatory journal, I don't believe we should keep this taxon article.

- Delete. While Bloomington MN appears to be large enough that a substantive and well-sourced article about a mayor could potentially be kept, it is not large or important enough that its mayors would simply be presumed notable just because you write and primary source a short blurb that barely goes any further than "he was a mayor who existed". The notability test for mayors is not passed simply by writing a few stray tidbits of biographical trivia; it is passed by writing and reliably sourcing (meaning media coverage, not the city's own self-published website about itself and not user-generated family genealogy sites) a substantive article about his political impact: specific things he accomplished, specific projects he spearheaded, specific effects he had on the development of the city, and on and so forth.

- Delete. The page was created by User:Jimison5, which is a WP:SPA, see Special:Contributions/Jimison.5, my guess is that they were an experienced editor who was paid to create this article as they created a draft of article in a sandbox and then created the article. Searching Newspapers.com for '"Park Street District" Columbus' in Ohio yields 6 hits. Two are from 2010 about a Park Street Festival - as notability is not inherited, these two articles do not support notability for this article. (I'm not so sure a Park Street Festival article would be notable, see WP:PRODUCTREV). One article has a passing reference to a house, the other three are scan errors. Searching GBooks yields some 1899 school-related hits about the Park Street District and some 1908 public works. The other GBooks hits don't apply. I found no WP:RS sources that are solely about this area. WP:GNG is not met. There is no legal recognition of the subject, nor is there any non-trivial coverage, thus #1 and #2 of WP:GEOLAND are not met. 18:00, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

The requirements to keep MMA gyms on wiki has gotten more stringent lately. In the page's current state it look towards failing WP:NORG. I can't seem to find anything substantial about the gym itself. All I can find are some brief mentions of it when talking about what gym a fighter trains at. Even the only reference this page makes is like that. Not to mention there don't seem to be many high level fighters affiliated with this gym except James Varner. In my opinion it seems more like a regional level gym rather than your typical "Super-gym" and so I'm not really convinced it should have its own wiki page. Also the article has been tagged as needing additional verification since 2010 and yet there has not been any real improvement to it. Imcdc (talk) 05:14, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

- keep I think; I have no particularly strong feelings on whether the list should exist, but I don't think current lack of references is an adequate reason for deletion. We should delete if references could not conceivably be found. Preserved railways tend to attract a bit of press interest, at least locally, and it should be possible to verify the existence of almost all of these locomotives, if anyone wishes to. In fact, for some, we don't even need to look very far. The first in the list, British_Rail_Class_D2/10 has a referenced statement in its own article that two are preserved (it's a book that I don't have, so I can't check it genuinely supports the statement). Unfortunately the onus is on the deleter to demonstrate that sources don't exist, not on anyone else to insert them, and I'm not sure I have the energy to track down such a huge number. Taking a completely random example (honestly, I just picked it) British_Rail_Class_25, this also has, in its own article, a table of preserved examples, with no less than 12 references!

This article doesn't appear to meet Wikipedia's criteria for stand-alone lists, and I've nominated it for deletion. I suggest we create a page that compiles a list of all Primetime Emmy winners and nominees, or perhaps just nominees, as there does not appear to be one that includes all nominees. Does anyone have a legitimate reason for creating separate lists? I think the information would be better off aggregated in one cohesive article.

- Comment Black winners and nominees have obviously been treated as a group by reliable sources (e.g. Essence), and it's been a topic of much discussion in recent years. Can the nominator expand on why they feel the topic fails WP:NLIST? pburka (talk) 03:32, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete I am sure this passes WP:NLIST to some degree (probably not through the most reputable sources) but I think it is a tricky cross-categorisation. My !vote is based on the inherent WP:BLP issues with this. Most sources will probably not have an exhaustive list of "black Primetime Emmy Award winners and nominees" so requires editors to do some compiling of their own. Editors will inevitably do some WP:SYNTH or WP:OR to determine who is "black". I know this might seem silly or like I am a pedant but this is actually a reasonably complex designation (especially for non-Americans). I don't think editors should be the ones to catalogue a living person's ethnicity. Two telling examples currently on the list:
- Rashida Jones - could equally appear on a white or Jewish list (see her WP for her own complex views on her identity).
- Nick Mohammed - His mother was Cyprus-born and his father an Indo-Trinidadian. As far as I can tell this wouldn't fit into the definition of "black" but it is not my place to make that judgement.
- There are many others on the list of ethnically mixed parentage (Nathalie Emmanuel, Giancarlo Esposito, Steven Canals, Ezra Edelman, Maya Rudolph etc). You could possibly move this to List of African-American Primetime Emmy Award winners and nominees (which is an easier designation to verify) but where would that leave Lupita Nyong'o? Ultimately we would need a source confirming a winner/nominee is "black" as well as that they were a winner/nominee and I do not think editors will do that. Then we just end up with WP:BLP and WP:V issues. Vladimir.copic (talk) 08:15, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
- Not to belabour this point too much but I just noticed Trevor Noah is listed who was designated as coloured in South Africa which is/was a different racial category to black and caused him issues as a child of a “black” mother. Shift this to a US context and he is labelled black. Another example of how this list does not make sense. Vladimir.copic (talk) 23:40, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete yet another example of political soapbox listcruft that misses the point; trying to arbitrarily divide people into vague “racial” categories when they might have six different equally valid ancestries is outdated and stupid. Dronebogus (talk) 14:46, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment I would also suggest including List of Latin and Hispanic Primetime Emmy Award winners and nominees in this which hilariously includes Antonio Banderas and commits many of the same sins. Vladimir.copic (talk) 01:22, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Vladimir.copic: I agree, but for the record, Antonio Banderas is Spanish. "Hispanic" includes anyone from Spain or other Spanish-speaking countries. Him being on that list is not an error.
- The list claims to “includes performers born in Latin America and with Latin American descent or heritage.” As far as I can tell being Spanish doesn’t fit this. To be fair this is just funny compared to the more eyebrow-raising placing of the Mexican flag next to American citizens, born in America who happen to have Mexican-American parents. Imagine doing something similar to Americans of European ancestry. Vladimir.copic (talk) 07:51, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Vladimir.copic: I agree, but for the record, Antonio Banderas is Spanish. "Hispanic" includes anyone from Spain or other Spanish-speaking countries. Him being on that list is not an error.
- Delete this and similar lists. Whilst it is certainly true that "lifestyle" magazines produce lists of this kind, they also produce lists of "the stars' favorite barbecues" and "six mountain resorts you've never heard of": the publication of a list does not create notability per se. I'm particularly worried about how we specify who's on this list and who isn't. I'm pretty sure we can't go and ask every Primetime Emmy Award winner whether they identify as one group or another racially, and there isn't a standard criterion we can apply. I'm grateful to Vladimir.copic for his comments above, which put my somewhat inchoate concerns far more eloquently than I could manage myself! RomanSpa (talk) 12:53, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- It's far more than the publications you dismiss as "lifestyle" magazines. This topic has been covered by Hollywood Reporter, Variety, CNN, LA Times, and NY Times. There's no shortage of reliable sources which could be used to satisfy WP:V. pburka (talk) 16:35, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Most of those would appear to be about individual black winners or #emmyssowhite which is a wholly different topic than just “black Emmy winners”. So I’d say it still doesn’t pass verifiability standards since individual notability =/= collective notability. Dronebogus (talk) 16:54, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- I also think that a dedicated page about EmmysSoWhite or Racial bias in Emmy Awards would be more useful and would be able to provide more context than a simple list. But I'm also not convinced that this list fails WP:LISTN or WP:V. pburka (talk) 17:03, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- I definitely support one or both of the first two, but generally speaking I generally don’t think lists can be good articles if they aren’t about plain, objective information like “tallest buildings” or “people with dwarfism”. Dronebogus (talk) 17:14, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Clearly you've never been involved in discussions about whether the CN Tower is a building or whether One WTC's spire counts towards its height. The objective criteria for this list is simple: have reliable sources described the people as "Black Primetime Emmy Award winners (or nominees)"? pburka (talk) 17:35, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- there’s a world of difference between “+/- spire” (just list it off to the side in another column) and whether or not someone gets to be considered a “black person”, reliable sourcing or no. 3rd parties shouldn’t get to arbitrate people’s identities, and self-identification isn’t objective enough to use as the basis for this article. Dronebogus (talk) 17:43, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Simply untrue to say this is an objective criteria. Just read the intro to the Black People article for confirmation. This page even includes a weird WP:OR definition of what black means for the purposes of this list which is just wrong. Currently the list seems to follow some kind of Americanised one-drop rule for determining blackness. See my above comment about Trevor Noah and other for why this is absurd and has WP:GLOBAL issues. If we just use sources that actually describe someone specifically as a “Black Primetime Emmy Award winner or nominee” (Not African, African-American, Afro-Cuban etc) it will just be a weird hodgepodge of names happening to have been described in this very specific way.

- Keep passes WP:GNG. I've added three references. Sources such as [45] in Toronto Star and [46] in The Globe and Mail establish notability. Also, the comment "While tall, it is not notable in a city with many tall buildings." downplays its exceptional height IMO. The development is the eights tallest building in Toronto.

- Delete. The references do not pass muster IMO, and I can't find any other decent ones. BlogTO is a content aggregator service that posts native ads all the time. The article in the Star is tagged as "special to the Star", which usually indicates non-independent coverage—and, in line with that, the article only interviews people affiliated with Menkes Developments, which built Harbour Plaza. The press release in Canada Newswire is a press release. Urban Toronto is a trade blog with no editorial standards I'm aware of.

- Keep. "Special to the Star" indicates that the article was written by a freelancer, but the same editorial standards that apply to staff-written articles apply to those by freelancers at the Star. BlogTO appears to be a reliable source with advertising and editorial clearly separated. It also responds quickly when I've told it about an error in an article. The Toronto edition of Metro has ceased publication, but I added an archived version of that page from Internet Archive. Yes, Canada Newswire is a press release distribution service like Business Wire or PR Newswire in the United States. Urban Toronto seems to be as reliable as any print publication.

*Delete per Alaney2k's comments. This fails WP:NBUILDING. After looking through List of tallest buildings in Toronto, buildings such as Commerce Court have received coverage that shows its apparent significance.

- Keep per GNG. I'm having difficulty assessing the Dutch language sourcing, but I'm inclined to keep based on the filmography and English sourcing such as Gay Times. Also, I fully acknowledge rumors should not be taken into account, but multiple sources have speculated that the subject is set to appear on the upcoming 'international all stars' season within the Drag Race franchise. I think we should work to expand and not delete this entry. Also, the nominator's one (hyphenated) word nomination is not really an assessment of sourcing or a well thought out analysis... ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:32, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. Standalone articles about the subject include Gay Times (which states "Janey has proven to be one of the most formidable contestants in Drag Race’s ever-expanding history") here; Elle (combined article with one other drag queen) here; Noordhollands Dagblad here; and Nieuw Volendam (from 2019) here. Then of course there's dozens of articles assessing her appearance on RPDR combined with coverage of other queens.

Article about a new association football club, founded by a former Chievo player and director, which aims to be an informal successor of A.C.

- @No Great Shaker: Seconda Categoria is the 8th tier of Italian football; only clubs in the top 3 (sometimes 4) tiers compete in the domestic cup. The more probable outcome is that the next season they could try to buy a licence for Serie D, as A.S.D. Città di Varese have done for example. Nehme1499 13:25, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, Nehme. The thing is that we have articles for English clubs as far down as the tenth tier. A phoenix club in Italy would surely gain significant coverage if its team were successful in reaching the eighth tier so I think I'd like this to be saved as a draft until we see how they progress. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:39, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
