Hobo Johnson

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

This subject gained attention due to a submission from him and his band to NPR's Tiny Desk Concert Series. The limited press mainly comes from that or as a result of that, but it is still quite limited. Doing a Google search, most of the few sources are from local newspapers, and the YouTube video sourced in the article, although done by a notable music critic, is not a reliable source.

Keep Hobo Johnson has received press coverage and the album The Rise of Hobo Johnson charted on Heatseekers Albums. Here is another article with info that could be used [1]. Article needs clean-up and expansion. Meets WP:MUSICBIO#2. Perhaps move/reformat page to be about the band. Thsmi002 (talk) 12:17, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Charting on a Billboard chart in and of itself does not always mean a musician or band is notable. Also, the sources are primarily local (Sacramento) and aside from those I can find no sources from major, non-local news or music outlets. This is a case of WP:TOOSOON. Andise1 (talk) 01:00, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and clean up: As above keep said, Johnson's album charted on Billboard's up and coming artists list. Between NPR publicity and the local scene, he meets notability guidelines. I would quibble more about the "local" coverage, but the Bee is the flagship newspaper of a major city and one of the 30th largest papers in the United States. I can't see how a reformat would survive, as Lopes is the only notable member of the group. Still, the article is a mess and needs to be cleaned.

Annie LeBlanc (entertainer)

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

I do not believe this subject is notable enough for Wikipedia at the moment. I see the sources in reliable publications, however:

- I am unsure how reliable the publication used for the first and third source is. - The second source is about the family vlog channel she is a part of (should there be an article on the whole family instead?) - The fourth source mentions the subject briefly in passing, but also mentions the family vlog channel. - Sources 6, 7, and 8 are more about the shows themselves, which could be used if the shows were notable, but I question whether they should be used here (since they are a legitimate source, but do not really cover the subject much) - Some of the other sources are either not really sources (Billboard,iTunes Chart) while others, such as the Shorty Award sources, are from questionable publications.

In the article, some sentences seem unnecessary, a fan's words, or promotional:

"After it was speculated that LeBlanc was dating fellow social media star Hayden Summerall in 2017, the alleged couple was dubbed "Hannie" by fans, who created elaborate fan-fiction with complex storylines about their high school relationship, and photoshopped thousands of pictures that appear to show the two together."

Also, the mentions of views on the web series and songs seem promotional to me.

I think there is a case for articles on the web series she is in, or the production company behind the web series, but I am not sure if the subject is entirely notable at the moment (although I may be wrong, we will see). Andise1 (talk) 02:56, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - It appears as to read more like a fan page. I am working at creating an article for the "Brat" web series company - I think this should cover the many social media stars who appear in the programs. SatDis (talk) 09:42, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Artist charted on Billboard [2] which meets WP:MUSICBIO#2. Also won a Shorty Awards as shown in [3]. Clearly has a significant following. Article needs clean-up and expansion. Thsmi002 (talk) 12:24, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

comment- Also plays a lead role in a production [4] and guest starred in an episode of Bizaardvark per [5]. Thsmi002 (talk) 18:16, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Just to let it be known, the song that this subject recorded which charted on the Billboard chart is a cover. The song was originally recorded by Maddie & Tae. Andise1 (talk) 01:02, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Note- Not sure what the relevance is of the response above. That is already mentioned in the article. The fact that her song was a cover does not change the fact that her version charted. LeBlanc was nominated at the Streamy Awards in 2017 in addition to the 2018 Shorty Awards. Both of these awards are Wikinotable. Thsmi002 (talk) 11:57, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom and, in my opinion, WP:TOOSOON. This individual has not been mentioned non-trivially by a sufficient number of WP:RS, and existing on a single chart does not itself establish sufficient notability per WP:MUSICBIO. --HunterM267 ^talk 17:50, 9 July 2018 (UTC)|[reply]
Keep Artist charted on Billboard [6] which meets WP:MUSICBIO#2. Charting is an auto pass, it does not matter if it's a cover, other votes say "NN youtuber" but she's a musician with a charted single. She'll be in the history books of American charts. GuzzyG (talk) 04:56, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Charting does not mean much if there is not much coverage on the subject aside from brief mentions, which is why some musicians who have charted are not inherently notable on Wikipedia, there is not enough reliable, independent sources about them out there. Andise1 (talk) 05:01, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's not true from what i've seen, care to share some examples of people who charted with no wikipedia's? It's what got RiceGum and George Miller (entertainer) articles. GuzzyG (talk) 06:55, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the Article Rescue Squadron's list of content for rescue consideration. Thsmi002 (talk) 12:05, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I tried starting a better formatted singles table with chart positions. LeBlanc has also had appeared on US and CA Billboard Digital Songs charts for her cover of "Little Do You Know." She charted on the Emerging Artists Billboard chart. Thsmi002 (talk) 12:54, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Time magazine says "Brat, which works on small budgets relative to Hollywood, has one certified hit in Chicken Girls, starring Annie LeBlanc and Hayden Summerall. The franchise’s debut episode has more than 10 million views, and it secured a movie deal with Lionsgate." [7] So she is staring on a hit show. And if any of her song's charted, be they original or a cover, then that counts towards her notability. She is also on the cover of Girls' Life (magazine) and they of course interviewed her as well. Dream Focus 22:18, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Raleigh

Non-notable local church. Nothing but local coverage, which you would expect on any church. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 02:30, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as church is the first church to be built in downtown Raleigh in over half a century. The opening ceremony, also covered by news sources, included over 500 attendants. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 02:34, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Sources in article, including regional newspaper this News & Observer article are substantial. --Doncram (talk) 21:11, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The article could be improved by covering how it is part of split of conservatives, perhaps within split covered by this 2008 New York Times article (which does not mention Raleigh). To build a new big church in a downtown is pretty unusual. Why this happened deserves more explanation in the article. The News & Observer article gives brief treatment that could be used, about it starting from 200 members of other church that did not like how liberal it was. --Doncram (talk) 21:20, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article should be moved to Holy Trinity Anglican Church (Raleigh, North Carolina), consistent with naming of Wikipedia articles for U.S. buildings and other places, e.g. National Register-listed buildings. "Raleigh" is not part of the church's name. --Doncram (talk) 21:23, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't find acceptable sources to support a claim of general notability. Fa-wiki doesn't have any description of the subject, either. This article was deleted in 2014 and apparently, the subject still isn't notable. Chris Troutman (talk) 01:41, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:NRIVALRY, no evidence of GNG. Simply because two teams play each other regularly does not create a de facto rivalry.

Subject fails WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. This was created by an SPA and translated from the German-language version. Some of the citations (since removed) are from WRO itself and the others look like press releases to me. I couldn't find significant coverage in independent sources.

Speedy keep Further proving that it's a waste of time to come here to build an encyclopedia when others are only interested in tearing it down. Per Piledhigheranddeeper, this is a perfectly legitimate example of content forking. There's quite a few contemporary sources present in the article, plus a decent number of respectable retrospective sources. As referred to in the talk page, Stan Patty's book Fearless Men and Fabulous Women, published in 2004, devotes a chapter to this episode in history. Patty spent 34 years at the Seattle Times as their resident Alaska expert. What little has been published about Tanner's life suggests that he was highly respected as a figure in law enforcement and as a community leader in Skagway, including serving as a United States Marshal, based largely on his reputation from this incident. The nominator does not elaborate on the COI they refer to, despite how obvious it is to me. Perhaps WP:COIN would be a better forum-shopping venue? Wikipedia has sadly become a dumping ground for whatever people find lying around the web today. A lack of interest in real research and real sources is the cause of the state of the references found in the article at present. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 01:05, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per RadioKAOS. This was a fairly significant gunfight, involving a fairly well-known scoundrel. Too much to merge back into Soapy's article. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:50, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep After reviewing the evidence, the shootout is clearly notable and it's too much to be merged back. I'm also not seeing a COI - the article creator seems to be pretty interested in Soapy Smith, but that alone does not constitute a COI seeing as we all edit articles about subjects we're interested in. That's not the sense of the word that "interest" is being used in the phrase "Conflict of Interest." And in any case, the article has plenty of other editors too. Smartyllama (talk) 13:16, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I had seen this as so obvious as not to need reiteration, but the articles creator, primary writer, and primary source is a blood relation who sells essentially self-published books on the subject, and has inserted his own judgement over that of disinterested authors. With that sort of thing removed, this might make an extra few sentences in “Soapy Smith” or ”Skagway”. This isn’t an encyclopedia article, it is advertisement for an author, not otherwise published, who has a book about his family...from a publisher with three, count ‘em, three books, two of which are out-of-copyright reprints. If you think this really worth a stand-alone article , then let’s blow up the existing mess that’s in its place. Qwirkle (talk) 14:32, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I count 17 sources in the article from people other than this so-called relative. And Jeff Smith is one of the most common names in America, so I'm not even seeing proof they're all related unless there's something they've explicitly said. Smartyllama (talk) 14:52, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So, less than half the sources don’t lead back to COI spam, and you think that is a positive sign?

Given that you have not read the article creator’s talk page, I don’T see how you can have such a strong opinion here about whether there is a COI. Qwirkle (talk) 16:56, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

17 sources is more than enough to establish GNG. There are plenty of editors who edited the page besides this so-called relative. And most importantly, AFD is not cleanup. So whether someone's related to the subject somehow is really irrelevant to this discussion. Smartyllama (talk) 17:19, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

17 good sources central to the subject might establish notability , but we don’t have that here now. GNG does not, in itself, establish the need for a stand alone article. Finally, “AFD is not cleanup” explicitly notes tht a substantial portion or writers believe that a realllllly bad article, like this one, should simply be deleted. Qwirkle (talk) 18:15, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In other words, it appears that you're attempting to play the same tired old bullshit game often played at AFD of judging the content and sources solely by what's present in the article at this moment and ignoring the advice given at WP:BEFORE. If Wikipedia truly was the collaborative environment it claimed to be, we could have avoided the COI and sourcing issues, not to mention this discussion, a long time ago. Stan Patty was a highly credentialed journalist, with a book published by a reputable publisher (Epicenter Press), which in part discussed this episode well over a century after it happened. The fact that he grew up in Alaska and went on to write extensively about Alaska for many decades may mean that he wasn't a "disinterested author" in the eyes of some, but that's quite a stretch when one considers his credentials. Many of the clearly reliable sources present in the article probably aren't geographically far enough removed for the crowd that are fond of making that argument. You know, the "It's not the New York Times" types. Well, a search of the NYT website shows a piece from 1928 which discusses this episode as part of the greater context of Smith's time in Skagway. Which brings me back to the first part of this particular argument: if reliable sources are still discussing this incident well over a century later, then just how many reliable sources have been published in between which are being ignored here? There are some people who don't wish to acknowledge those sort of sources because they wish to push Wikipedia in the direction of being a compendium of trending topics on the web from one particular day or another within the 21st century. So much for "the sum total of all human knowledge". RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 21:42, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The article was split from Stardust the Super Wizard because it made the original article too long. The stories are indivudual interpretations and explorations of the original character created in the 1930s. The stories fill in plot holes, propose backstory, and otherwise enhance a primitive, yet seminal character in comics history. They all strayed enough from the original stories and one another to deserve their own entry. Admittedly, the summary could use some polishing.

Delete or Summarize then merge: Obviously time was put into this article, but it appears to be based on WP:SYN from primary sources. Unless it can be demonstrated from third-party sources that this topic has any notability, I'm skeptical that we should dedicating space to mention arbitrary projects, let alone their publication history. The crux of the notability argument is that this character is extensively used because it is in the public domain, but that claim is unsourced. Additionally, the title of the article makes it sound like it is the title of a series, but that does not appear to be the case; Unofficial Stardust the Super Wizard comics may be more appropriate, if the article is to remain. —Ost (talk) 18:40, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
